Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 70
Episode 70:
There are two main aspects of Evelyn that Dio remembers.
They look like their bodies are drooping from exhaustion from research, or they run around like children when they discover something new.
However, the appearance of Evelyn that appeared before Dio’s eyes was not the two appearances mentioned above. Sparks of strong mana surrounded her
, and
black scales appeared on her pale skin, perhaps due to the excessively expressed power.
“Eveline? “Is that you?”
Dio called her name again.
Sigh –
Dio frowned at the sight of Evelyn raising her hand instead of answering the question.
“If you’re kidding, right now…”
Shupat-
“Huh!?”
A shadow blade shoots out from Evelyn’s hand.
In response, Dio bent his back and avoided it.
Pajizizik-
‘Damn, I’m out of my mind.’
When I looked closely at Evelyn’s face, I saw that her eyes were out of focus.
Dio stepped back to avoid Evelyn, who looked as if she was being brainwashed by someone.
‘That bastard!’
Dio cursed inwardly as he saw Kalfael waving his hand at him from a distance.
Crassus grabbed Kalphael by the collar and shouted something, but Kalphael smiled and played his lute briefly.
Then, Kalphael and the new form of Crassus that was holding him disappeared in an instant.
Immediately after that, Kalfael’s voice could be heard clearly in Dio’s head.
-This is the final gateway. Just in case, the girl in front of you is her.
Dio wanted to scream, asking what he was doing, but Evelyn in front of him was not watching.
Shoo shoo –
The sphere of darkness condensed in Evelyn’s hand and headed towards Dio.
A shadow ball whose power varies greatly depending on the user’s abilities.
It didn’t just end up appearing in Evelyn’s hands.
Her shadow, imitating Evelyn’s appearance, also activated the shadow ball just like the main body.
‘Double order!’
Quang! Quagwagwang!
Dio flew away to avoid the shadow ball.
Similar to the dual spells used by high-level wizards, wizards who manipulate shadows can use double spells.
‘You have to be over level 300 to use double spells, right?’
The Evelyn that Dio knew was a witch in the late 150s at most.
Of course, taking into account the growth I have had since coming here.
However, like Sepia, it is abnormal that she, who showed no signs of being trained by Crassus, has grown so dramatically.
‘It looks like Kalphael did something…’
Dio quickly identified the target.
Evelyn was different from the demonic beasts that Dio had hunted so far.
This does not mean that humans and non-human species are different.
The demonic beasts were summoned creatures created by Kalfael, but the difference is that Evelyn is not a summoned creature.
‘The message sent by Kalphael probably says this.’
Dio gritted his teeth as he remembered Kalphael, who had disappeared as if to cheer him up.
Who would have thought that the new summoning magic circle was a new portal that summoned Evelyn from outside.
Liquid-
Paba Bak!
Dio quickly struck down the shadow arrow fired by Evelyn with his sword.
‘You can’t catch me at this level, right?’
Dio thinks that Evelyn is currently around level 300.
However, compared to Dio, who received Solari’s blessing and gained a new class, it was not that difficult of an opponent.
-Coooooo!
‘Oh, there were these guys too.’
I was so focused on Evelyn that I couldn’t pay attention to the monsters that were flocking towards me.
Dio turned around and used [Island] towards the monsters.
Quagwagwagwang!
The flames rising with a huge explosion engulfed the monsters.
-Kaaaa!
A Minotaur, who barely survived Dio’s skill, jumped out from the flames.
“Coooooooo!”
Doo doo doo doo –
Dio didn’t even bother to run away from the Minotaur that was charging towards him with red, bloodshot eyes.
“Where?”
thud!
Even though the Minotaur hit Dio with all his might with the horns on his head, he didn’t even move.
“Sigh.”
This was not Dio who would be pushed by the monsters that survived the explosion.
Dio grabbed the animal by its horns and pushed it backwards.
Huh –
The huge Minotaur struggled in the sky without much strength.
Sharp-
A shadow blade that cuts off the waist of a Minotaur floating in the air.
While Dio was taking care of the monsters, Evelyn used magic again.
Spot –
Of course, Evelyn’s magic was aimed at Dio, not the monsters, so Dio hit the ground and dodged the shadow blade.
‘I need to subdue it first.’
Evelyn’s presence was quite a nuisance to Dio, who was trying to level up easily.
Even if Evelyn was not an opponent that Dio could not defeat, he could not ignore her.
The attack magic of a level 300 witch is a burden even for Dio.
Evelyn’s existence had to be resolved somehow.
Tadak –
Dio ran towards her, dodging Evelyn’s magic as a follow-up blow.
Evelyn may have felt a sense of crisis, as a shadow whip erupted from her entire body and swung at Dio.
Twaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
!
The whips wielded by Evelyn and her shadow were constantly pushing Dio.
Sugagagak-!
Dio skillfully dodged the whips or cut them off with his sword and arrived right in front of Evelyn.
“Wake up, man!”
bang!
Dio’s sharp blade struck Evelyn’s head hard.
“Keck!”
Evelyn, who was unable to respond to Dio who was approaching her, fell to the floor due to the impact on her head
* * *
“Are you okay?”
Looking at Evelyn’s helpless state, Dio spoke awkwardly.
Even considering that she was a witch with low durability, I had no idea that she would be incapacitated in one hit.
My magical power may have become stronger, but I wondered if it was because my physical strength as a spellcaster remained the same.
“He’s not dead, right?”
Dio turned over Evelyn, who had fallen, and looked at her cheerful condition.
He only lost consciousness for a moment due to the sudden shock, but his life did not seem to be in danger.
‘Why did Kalfael make Evelyn and me fight?’
Dio took advantage of Evelyn’s silence to think about Kalfael’s intentions.
There were a few strange things that seemed to be for simple sparring purposes.
If the purpose was to determine the level of strength, one of the seven stars would have to step forward.
‘You’re not trying to kill me.’
Even though Evelyn fired magic as if she was going to kill him, Dio was not worthy of being hit like this.
And there was no way Kalphael did not know this fact.
‘Shall we first remove all obstacles?’
Dio left Kalphael’s plan behind and looked around to finish the hunt in front of him.
But…
“What? “Why can’t I respawn?”
Monsters clearly came out of the cracks that were being defeated.
However, fortunately or unfortunately, Dio could only see an empty ribbit in his field of vision right now.
‘Is the last time I defeated you earlier? Or maybe something has changed due to Evelyn’s intrusion…’
The
moment when Dio feels a sense of discomfort about the Leavitt Swamp.
Something rose from Evelyn’s fallen shadow.
Throwing –
A shadow spear passes by Dio’s shoulder and soars into the sky.
The shadow spear fired by Evelyn flew high into the sky and disappeared at some point.
In response, Dio hurriedly grabbed Evelyn’s arms.
‘Have you not lost your mind?’
I wondered if he would come to his senses if I hit his head. Evelyn woke up again and her eyes were still unfocused.
Grumble-
“What is it?”
Dio looked up at the sky at the sudden sound of thunder.
Did the magic fired by Evelyn have any effect?
High red sky.
It was not Dio’s illusion that the sky was gradually sinking.
It wasn’t just the sky.
The horizon visible in the distance was also fragmenting and the space was gradually narrowing.
‘Space is falling apart. ‘Where’s the exit?’
Dio urgently looked around.
There must be a portal space created by Kalfael…
but no matter how hard you search, there is no exit.
As Kalphael took Crassus out of the space, it seemed like there was no exit.
‘Damn…what will happen to me if it collapses like this? ‘Could it be that I die?’
At first, Dio thought there was no way the seven stars could kill him.
But that wasn’t it.
Dio, who underestimated the seven stars too much, regretted his attitude.
Kalfael.
Although he was wary of this unpredictable guy, the power of the seven stars was like an unavoidable natural disaster to Dio.
If I had known this would happen, I should have looked into more information about him…
Kugugugugugu-
The ceiling of the sky continued to fall, and the vast land continued to collapse.
It’s like a collapsing dungeon.
‘Dungeon?’
A thought suddenly occurred to Dio, recalling the Dungeon of Order he had experienced.
This space created by Kalphael was similar to the dungeon of Order.
A dungeon that exists for the purpose of helping players grow.
Among those dungeons, there was one that collapsed like this.
Players can escape the dungeon by completing the given objectives.
‘If we assume that this is also made with the same design as the dungeon.’
Dio looked at Evelyn.
The most basic device for escaping from a dungeon.
That is, annihilating all enemies within the dungeon.
‘….’
Dio realized.
What kind of test did Kalphael give?
You must kill your companions to escape.
‘I knew his intention. Then what I have to do is….’
The situation where the collapsing space and the only way to escape were presented were all induced by Kalphael.
So does Kalfael want the key to have a harsh judgment?
It was easy to kill Evelyn right now.
But is it really best to kill Evelyn and escape?
There might be another way…
‘No. No matter how much I think about it, this is the only way.’
Dio pressed down Evelyn’s arms with his knees to prevent her from running wild.
And he aimed the sword at her neck.
“….”
Dio looked at Evelyn’s unfocused eyes.
Thinking rationally, killing Evelyn and escaping is the only way for Dio to survive.
But…
‘Kalfael. ‘Is it right to do as this guy wants?’
Dio didn’t like this situation he had led to.
This is a very nasty action for testing a key.
‘If I believe and follow the words of the seven stars without any doubt…’
It is absurd for Dio to blindly believe in them just because they have dedicated themselves to the sun for a thousand years.
‘And if you kill Evelyn here, that’s the problem.’
Dio was well aware of the fact that the Witch of Balance’s favorite student was Evelyn.
What do I do if I pass Kalphael’s test?
The Witch of Balance might try to kill him.
In order to obtain Sepia’s class, you already have to complete the quest given by the Witch of Balance…
Ugh –
In front of Dio, who had mixed feelings about the situation, the space became distorted and a vortex-shaped crack appeared.
“What else?”
Tung-!
Dio wondered if the exit had opened, but unfortunately, the portal that appeared for a moment spit out a person and disappeared again.
“How did you get here?”
Dio’s eyes widened as he saw a new person intruding into Kalphael’s space.
“Ugh, this place…uh! Dio? Evelyn?”
Roberto was out of his mind after just escaping from the portal.
He just made an incomprehensible expression as he looked at Dio, who was aiming his sword at Evelyn’s neck.
