Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 101
Episode 101:
The sudden arrival of pitch darkness.
However, Dio was more confused by the fact that the pattern he knew had collapsed rather than the fact that his vision was completely blocked.
‘Why on earth? ‘What attracted Luave?’
Dio sensed that he had been struck by Luave’s magic, but unlike usual, he could not think of an immediate solution.
Probably because I was extremely embarrassed.
I know I need to come to my senses, but it’s easier said than done.
Things don’t always go as planned, but the situation is a little different now.
This time, his life is in the hands of an overwhelming enemy called Luabra.
Dio, trapped in the dark, panics and doesn’t know what to do.
Boom –
A secret sound was heard, as if the tent was being cut with scissors.
‘Huh!?’
Although it was still dark, Dio could feel the wind on his skin.
That there was an exit in this darkness.
“D.I.O! “This way!”
Dio stretched out his hand, following Evelyn’s voice calling him.
Dio felt a rough hand holding his hand.
Roberto.
It was clear that his hands had been trained with a fist.
“Huh!”
Dio, who couldn’t see but was pulled out of the darkness by Roberto’s power, took a deep breath.
It was only now that I realized that the air in the space I was just trapped in was cut off.
“Heo-eok, heo-eok.”
Dio exhaled harshly and looked at his comrades who had saved him.
Then I looked back and saw a very deep hole in the air.
‘[Imaginary space]…You trapped me there without me even noticing.’
Dio recognized Luave’s skill at once and swallowed his saliva.
This time I really almost died.
Roberto and Eveline are witches who deal with vampires and shadow magic.
If it weren’t for their good night vision, they would have died in imaginary space.
“We’re up!”
“There is an enemy above too!”
The surrounding area was not as dark as the imaginary space where Dio was trapped, but there was considerable darkness.
Previously, due to the lunar eclipse, the surroundings were illuminated with torches and glowstones, but now only the area in front of the nose was visible.
At this, the priest and wizard shouted and hurriedly turned on the light.
As dozens of luminous magic turned on, Dio squinted, perhaps because of the vision lost in the brief imaginary space.
‘I thought things were going well, but then Phase 3 starts at the same time?’
Dio moved his gaze toward the direction a soldier was pointing to.
Only then did a warlock floating in the sky come in.
“Nice to meet you.”
A low-pitched voice that is neither loud nor soft.
However, the voice contained a heaviness like the roar of a tiger.
At this, not only the soldiers, but even the knights and paladins who had maintained a strong spirit in the face of the Abomination trembled.
Luave Delaciel opens his mouth again.
“Where is the sacrifice?”
* * *
Bang, bang,
no one could move even as Luave, who was floating in the air, came down and walked slowly.
Is it because there is an Abomination right in front of us waiting for its creator’s orders?
no.
The people in the hall are simply overwhelmed by the energy radiated by one person, Luave.
“You’re much younger than I thought.”
Luave, who was just watching Evelyn and Roberto pull Dio out of imaginary space, tilted his head.
As if he was puzzled by the sight of someone who had stopped his own army of demonic beasts struggling in an imaginary space.
“There are many things I would like to discuss with you.”
Luave, who had reached the front of Dio, opened his mouth while looking only at Dio, ignoring the gaze of those around him.
Everyone was holding their breath at that soft bass sound.
Knights who protect the territory and protect the people of the territory.
Paladins and priests who will be fighting against warlocks.
Even though a villain who was undoubtedly causing harm to the continent appeared in front of them, they could not move easily.
Roberto and Eveline also instinctively knew.
I felt more threatened by the old man holding a cane than by that vicious monster.
‘What should I do?’
Dio swallowed his saliva as he looked at Luave who had arrived in front of him.
It was the same as allowing a preemptive attack from the point of being hit by Luave’s imaginary space.
‘With the abilities I have now, I am no match for him.’
There was no way the weapons that slaughtered the demonic beast army would work on Luave.
In addition, the priests who worked hard to weaken the Abomination, as well as the troops who wasted their stamina in the ongoing battle.
Even in its perfect state, it wouldn’t be a match for Luave, so in its current state, it’s ridiculous.
‘damn.’
Dio realized his mistake for thinking too easily even though his opponent was Luave.
Maybe he was relieved that Calliope was by his side.
That’s why I wasn’t too worried about ‘survival’, which was Dio’s top priority.
In the end, absolute faith must come only from yourself.
‘I should have abandoned Ox.’
Even if you go back a little, you can grow slowly.
Obsessed with Calliope’s quest and rapid growth, he failed to take into account the huge threat called Luabra.
‘It’s impossible to beat him. So should I run away? But how?’
Dio gave up his thoughts on winning against Luave early on.
But what if you’re running away rather than winning?
‘now!’
Any further thoughts were meaningless, and Dio’s best bet was to act before his opponent attacked.
Currently, Luave is within Dio’s attack range.
Dio pushed forward, pushing Evelyn and Roberto who were guarding his side.
Pop!
The sharp edge of the Silver Arming Sword turns towards Luave.
Quirky –
But Dio’s black Luave blocked it by simply raising his arm slightly.
No, not only did he block it, but Dio’s sword that touched Luave’s arm slipped off its path.
‘You have to approach it. The further away you are, the more disadvantageous you are.’
Dio didn’t mind the attacks and kicked the ground to get inside Luave.
Like when I fought Viktor.
If you take advantage of the magician’s characteristics of being vulnerable to access!
Kkulung-
Paang!
In an instant, a black wave rose.
The black wave pushed Dio away, and Dio’s body could not withstand the impact.
“Tsk!”
Luave’s ‘Flare’ is on a different level from Victor.
As if the terrible magic energy emanating from his entire body wasn’t enough to send Dio flying far away, it also engulfed the Bertio soldiers around him.
“Kwaaaaaak!”
“help me!”
Flare is a magic defense method to ward off opponents.
However, depending on the caster’s magic level, it can be an attack magic that can devastate the surrounding area.
Kwagwagwagwa!
“It’s black magic! Avoid!”
“Sea Shield!”
Clink!
Wood, crack, crack!
The black smoke emitted by Luave crushed the entire bodies of the soldiers and instantly shattered the shields the priests had spread.
Craddangtang!
“Aaaah!”
“Hold me!”
Evelyn and Roberto, who were next to Dio, were also unable to withstand the shock and flew off somewhere.
When Dio, who had rolled on the floor several times, took his stance again, he was the only one left within a 5m radius of Luave. Dio took a quick
gulp
of the potion, but perhaps because he hit his head hard on the floor, he couldn’t easily maintain his balance.
Luave approached the staggering Dio again and his mouth opened.
“There are many things I want to know from you. “But where is the sacrifice?”
Dio noticed.
That the other person is intentionally keeping him alive.
And the sacrifice he is aiming for is ‘sepia’.
At that moment, Dio’s head quickly rotated.
An opponent you can never defeat.
But there is always a way.
Even if you don’t win.
A way to survive.
“Sacrifice? what is that?”
Dio pretended not to notice Luave’s question and took his time.
Then I focused all my attention and looked at Luave.
What thoughts does Luave have now and how long will he continue the conversation to get what he wants?
All of these will become weapons that Dio can use.
* * *
“I think you know that it’s not a problem that can be ignored just because you don’t know.”
Luave looked infinitely relaxed.
But he was never merciful.
The moment Luave lifted up his bony forearm with prominent tendons, Dio’s gravity changed.
Quang!
Dio was unable to withstand the gravity that was weighing him down and fell to the ground.
Kwazizig!
Controlling gravity is not a task for Luave.
“Keueuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu out out out out out out off out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out over out over out out out out out out out out
out out out out out out out out up out up out up out there out there up over up out out out out over up out out over up over over w down out out over over over out over out over over over over over out over over over out his over the back]]]” Dio’s body becomes even heavier and the floor begins to collapse.
“Ask me again.”
“Huh-”
When Luave clenched his fist, the gravity that had been weighing down Dio returned.
“Where is the offering?”
“…It’s not here.”
“hmm.”
Luave seemed to be displeased with Dio’s answer, so he raised his head and looked around.
What he is seeing is the Allied Forces formed in Oaks.
They didn’t even dare to attack Luave’s overwhelming inaction.
I just watch Dio confronting Luave.
“It would be better for you if there were no onlookers, right?”
“for a moment!”
Dio hurriedly stopped Luav as he raised his hand towards Bertio and the Luna Church.
He knows what he’s talking about.
He is saying that he will kill everyone, leaving behind those who are necessary for conversation.
“The sacrifice you are looking for is….”
Luave doesn’t have much patience.
Dio gave out the answer he wanted to get his attention again.
“It’s down here.”
Luave tilted his head, looking at the floor where Dio pointed with his finger.
“It’s under the ground? “Oh, I see.”
Soon, Luave nodded as if he understood Dio’s words and withdrew his hand that was pointing towards the knights and paladins.
“I wish I told you exactly. “Is it right below where you are?”
Luave approached Dio, who was lying on the floor, and asked for more accurate information.
“I don’t know exactly about that.”
“Oh, I don’t know…”
“No, listen to me until the end.”
Dio shouted at Luave’s snort.
It is true that we do not know exactly.
However, Dio knew that the truth alone could not stop Luave’s slaughter.
If so, the way is…
“Couldn’t you lift the ground around here? “You just have to look for that…ah.”
Dio grins.
“Is that kind of magic too much?”
“hot!”
Is this a provocation?
Or is he just babbling because he’s really in a hurry?
Or is he gambling because he knows it won’t kill him?
For whatever reason, Luave couldn’t stop himself from bursting out laughing.
Perfect!
When Luave’s fingers snapped, Soldier Bertio’s neck popped! And it exploded.
“Hey!”
“Kill the Lord! Attack the warlock!”
“But…if we move, that monster might attack!”
Even though more and more soldiers were dying due to Luave, the Ox Alliance was unable to respond in any way.
From the beginning, I was aware that confronting Luave head-on was suicidal.
Above all, I was concerned about Abomination, which had not yet taken any action.
“Is it too much? “This Luave Delaciel?”
Luave, who was not at all concerned about the confusion of the Allied Forces, bent down and laughed at Dio, who was lying on the floor.
“good night. “Please respond to that provocation.”
Luave stretched out his hand to Abomination, who was standing still.
“Was it your plan to weaken my minions? But…I’ll show you. “What a futile thing you have done.”
Woe! Mana
drain.
Mana drain.
A specialty of warlocks who recover their own power by draining the target’s mana.
Luave was absorbing the power of the Abomination, which possessed enormous magical power.
Dio’s heart pounded violently at that sight.
‘little bit more.’
Before we knew it, the Abomination’s size had shrunk to about half, and Luave stopped draining as if that was enough.
Afterwards, he starts waving his hands in the air.
What a seven-pointed magic circle.
This was clearly the preparation stage for [Deathquake], a level 7 black magic.
Deathquake, the highest level of earthquake magic, has the power to literally transform the earth into a land of death.
However, Luave’s current version of Deathquake has restrained its destructive abilities.
What he is aiming for is the sacrificial sepia.
Luave believes that Sepia is under the ground and uses Deathquake.
In that case, it is likely that only the earth will be pulled up in order to take the sacrifice in its entirety.
Coo coo coo coo coo!
The shaking of the earth that occurred when the demonic beast army moved and when the Abomination appeared.
But at that time, it was literally just a vibration.
But not now.
Dio knew that a natural disaster would soon strike that would not just shake the earth but distort it to the extreme.
Luave accepted Dio’s provocation and was truly trying to turn the earth upside down.
This is exactly what Dio wants.
The time it takes for [Death Quake] to activate is 8 seconds.
‘Not yet.’
Dio, who was slowly counting until Luave’s action, began to beat regularly.
As if the hands of a clock were moving.
Quad dud deud deuk!
‘5 seconds. now!’
The moment when a crack appears in the ground and causes upheaval.
Dio jumped up from his seat and swung the dagger that was hanging on his leg at Luave.
“Everyone! Attack the corpse guy!”
Dio’s voice, which seemed like he was about to die at any moment, rang in everyone’s ears.
