Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 27

Episode 27

“Is that really true?”

Sigmund’s face lit up at Dio’s answer that there was a way.

In response, D.O also imitated the appearance of a lawmaker in a very cautious manner.

“There was a case similar to this in my hometown. “It’s called intangible poison.”

“Poison?”

“In the Eastern Continent, there is no concept of curse, so they just call it poison. “If you look at the state of sepia, it is the same as an intangible poison that focuses on long-acting effects.”

“Then how…!”

Sigmund did not fully understand Dio’s words, but he became absorbed in the atmosphere he gave off and gritted his teeth.

“It’s not that treatment is impossible. However, the patient’s condition must be monitored continuously, and the medication prescription will continue to change as the curse progresses. I will have to keep going around to find the ingredients for that medicine…” “

…What do you mean?”

“yes. I think Sepia will have to move with me.”

“That’s not possible! “I just need to get the ingredients!”

Sigmund shouted, terrified at the thought of having to let Sepia go.

However, Dio expected that kind of reaction from him, so he slowly shook his head and opened his mouth.

“The ingredients I need will be difficult to find unless you are from the Eastern Continent. “If it is not treated in time, it is very dangerous because the condition will worsen.”

“….”

“Oppa, I’m fine. This person is right… He will definitely come back in good health…”

Hearing the words of Sephia, who was listening to the story next to him, Sigmund was heartbroken as he had to accept this unbelievable reality.

In any case, since Sephia herself agreed, I have to let her go for her own sake.

But even if his sister had made a promise, Sigmund was not sure about the man in front of him.

“…Let’s go to River North first and finish talking. Rep. “Sepia will be okay for now, right?”

“First aid has been completed, so for now. “But I think I’ll have to leave within a week.”

At Dio’s words, Sigmund nodded as if he understood and shouted to the knights waiting for him from afar.

“Everyone returns to the city!”

“yes!”

Amid the shouts of the knights, Sepia followed Sigmund.

Then, when he turned around and met Dio’s gaze, he nodded with a gloomy expression.

She probably doesn’t feel comfortable either.

But I can’t help it.

Even in order to uncover the forgotten secrets of the swordsman, I can’t stay stuck in one place in Rivernos.

* * *

[Entered the big city of Rivernos]

Dio and his party arrived in Rivernos comfortably thanks to the knights’ escort.

Dio was impressed by the sight of River North, starting from the magnificent gate, even though it was a place he had been tired of visiting.

Past the guards guarding the majestic castle gate, there are buildings so tall that they are incomparable to the village of Evra.

In addition to all kinds of buildings such as blacksmiths, churches, warehouses, and general stores, various guild buildings, including mercenaries and adventurers, were also built.

Dio wanted to run straight to the warehouse, but at Sigmund’s invitation, he went straight to the Rivernos Knights’ mansion where he worked.

The Knights’ Mansion was not far from the mansion of ‘Earl Herrington’, the lord of River North.

“Vice-captain has returned!”

“Loyalty!”

As Dio and Sephia, led by Sigmund, entered the mansion with the knights, the salutes of the knights waiting for them rang out.

‘Indeed, the Rivernos Knights are among the top five in the western part of the continent.’

Dio swallowed his saliva as he looked at the dozens of knights lined up in shiny plate armor.

If I can’t persuade Sigmund, I have to bring Sepia in even if I have to use force…

‘I don’t know if that’s possible.’

Although Sigmund held the position of deputy knight commander, he was the highest authority in the Rivernos Knights.

This is only natural when you think about the aging knight commander who is about to retire.

“Everyone disperse. And Mr. Representative, would you like to talk with me for a moment? “I will personally treat the benefactor who saved Sepia.”

“Let’s do that.”

Sigmund bit the knights and spoke to Dio, and Dio nodded as if he knew that too.

“Sepia, you will stay in my room for the time being. So…”

Sigmund couldn’t bring himself to say the words ‘until I leave,’ but Sephia tried to understand his feelings and answered with a smile.

“okay. “I’m really looking forward to having a meal with my brother after a long time.”

As a result, Sigmund’s steps became infinitely heavier, but the sight of him struggling to turn his feet was quite sad.

“sepia. “Let’s take a moment to see the situation.”

“yes? Ah yes.”

Dio stopped Sepia as she was about to leave and pretended to take her pulse.

-Don’t wander around and keep pretending to be sick. If the plan goes wrong, you may have to leave secretly. Was he writing a letter to Sigmund?

Sephia nodded as Dio spoke in a whisper.

“Okay then, take care of your health and rest. “I’ll stop by periodically.”

After finishing the fake medical treatment, Dio said hello to Sepia, who was leaving with the escort, and then grinned as he looked at Sigmund, who did not erase his wary gaze.

‘They say they will treat you well, but they are probably full of intentions to interrogate you.’

Just as Dio had thought, Sigmund began threatening him as soon as he arrived in the drawing room with him.

“Forget petty courtesy. “If you have any complaints, do whatever is convenient for you.”

Sigmund seems to have been hiding his coercive attitude out of concern for Sepia.

His persuasion was not over yet, and Dio was also aware of the fact that now was the main episode.

“I was going to do that too.”

Grumbling –

Sigmund was so angry that he roughly pushed out his chair, sat down, and immediately began the interrogation.

“Who are you?”

Sigmund’s question.

They probably don’t want the answer that they are congressmen from the East.

“The name Dio is used here. “I’m trying to make a living by working as a mercenary.”

“A mercenary? “Do you have a mercenary badge?”

In response to Sigmund’s question, Dio thought of the A-class mercenary card in his inventory, but quickly gave up the thought.

“I was just about to make it. “It’s one of the reasons I came to River North.”

“Another reason is?”

“What can I do? “I’m going to travel around and visit big cities to pick up herbs that can only be found here on the Western Continent.”

Even though Dio responded harshly, Sigmund continued to ask questions.

-How did you find the warlock’s den of thieves?

-It is said to have come from the East. If it’s real, can you prove it?

-Is there any other way to completely cure sepia?

-How can I believe that you, from the East, can solve the curse?

Among Sigmund, there were some questions that were sensitive to answer.

Each time, Dio gave his answer by elaborately linking it with the background that he had planned with Sepia as a congressman from the East.

If it is difficult to answer even then, you have no choice but to insist.

“I heard you treated me once last time?”

“You know there are a lot of flaws in what you said, right? “It’s purely absurd.”

“well? “I’m a foreigner so I’m not sure?”

Sigmund, who could not erase his distrustful expression even after hearing Dio’s answer, paused for a moment and began glaring at Dio.

After a moment of silence, Sigmund asked what might be the most important question.

“Why did you save Sepia?”

Why did you save me?

Ah, this is difficult.

But this is also the question Sephia asked.

“Do you need a reason to save someone?”

“….”

Sigmund raised his eyebrows in response to Dio’s shrug of his shoulders.

Was the answer too hypocritical?

I don’t know how Sigmund will take this.

“…To be honest, your actions are very suspicious.”

After breaking the silence for a moment, Sigmund sighed and opened his mouth.

“It is undoubtedly true that you saved Sephia. So I don’t know any more. “The fact that he knows Sepia’s condition even though he’s not a wizard is everything.”

Sigmund’s question is reasonable.

But isn’t it possible to directly explain the journey of a level 10 warehouse character?

“Whether what you say is true or false, are you saying that you are the only one who can cure Sepia?”

“From what I know, it’s common sense. Of course, I don’t know if it is Luna’s archbishop-level sacred power, but…”

Sigmund is shocked at the words “church” and “holy power.”

But this is also what Dio intended.

Dio spoke first because he knew that Sigmund had bad feelings toward the Luna Church.

“…they can’t believe it.”

“Still, you believe in me more than the church?”

Dio chuckled, interrupting Sigmund, who was full of caution.

Just as it is natural to go to a doctor when you are sick, it is common to go to a priest when you are cursed.

However, from the beginning, Sigmund ruled out the idea of treating the cursed Sepia in the church.

They must be worried that Sepia’s strange ‘talent’ and strange power will be discovered by them and she will be accused of heresy.

“….”

Sigmund frowned and continued to think about something.

‘Are you worried about which is better between me and the church?’

Dio was busy worrying that Sigmund might make the wrong choice.

The biggest problem now is that Sigmund does not trust Dio.

of course.

A strange man I saw for the first time.

A stranger who came not from this continent but from a land in the far east across the sea.

It is strange to even believe this.

However, in order to get Sepia away from Sigmund, Dio had to become a trustworthy person whom he could trust.

‘You must have ability to gain trust.’

If you can solve his problems, you will be able to gain some trust.

‘At this point, it would be the starting point of the Livernorth terror episode after Sephia was kidnapped.’

Dio knocked on the table to attract the attention of Sigmund, who was in trouble.

“From the sounds I heard on the way, it seems like disappearance cases are rampant.”

“…It’s true. “What does that have to do with you?”

Sigmund frowns, wondering if he is going to say something strange again.

Dio smiled regardless.

“Can I help you?”

“what? “What are you, helping me?”

“Even though I’m like this, I’m a former military doctor. They are also in charge of investigating victims. Have you ever heard of a detective?”

“…I do not know.”

Sigmund frowned at Dio’s incomprehensible words.

Actually, how would he know about the Eastern Continent’s system?

“I thought you didn’t know. “Anyway, I’m not stupid enough to say I’m helping without knowing anything.”

“You say that as if you know the situation in Rivernos well.”

Despite Dio’s suggestion, Sigmund snorted.

Even though River North is a large city, the events that occur within it are thoroughly controlled under the Order of Knights.

How could someone from a distant continent know the true circumstances of Rivernos…

“Back alleys.”

“!!”

-Chaeng!

Sigmund’s sword occurred in an instant.

At the tip of the sharp knife pointed at Dio’s neck as if it could cut him down at any time –

a drop of bright red blood flowed down the blade.
