Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 51

Episode 51

Kalech Forest.

The player simply perceives it as a hunting ground where vampires and werewolves appear, but it was an area with its own setting.

People who become vampires and werewolves in an unexpected accident face the fate of being chased by hunters for the rest of their lives.

They moved north to avoid humans in order to survive.

The place where they gathered was Kalech Forest, near Estellum, the city of the dead.

As time passed, the number of vampires and werewolves increased, and even those who were wanderers became groups.

The two groups could not get along well as they were competing for human blood.

Vampires thought werewolves were foolish beasts, and werewolves thought vampires were cunning, like bats.

Because complete coexistence is impossible for them, they created a safe zone in Kalekh Forest for the sake of species conservation.

So what is the standard for that safe zone?

NPCs don’t go around often, but there are places that are definitely left in the minds of players.

A herbalist who seems to have settled down to provide for someone’s convenience.

The place he was….

* * *

Dio and his party, who followed Roberto into the safety zone of Kalech Forest, were able to arrive in front of a hut that was standing in a dark place.

“Please wait a moment. “I will inform the master of your visit.”

After asking for Dio’s understanding, Roberto immediately knocked politely on the door of the simple cabin.

‘Right. The owner Roberto was talking about was an herbalist.’

Dio knows who owns the cabin.

I don’t remember his name, but there was an extra NPC who lived here and provided various help to the players. He was the owner of the hut and an herbalist.

Like an herbalist, he sells recovery items for players and also buys loot obtained through hunting.

‘I didn’t expect there to be a special background…but there was a reason.’

It is not known how the herbalist came to settle here.

The herbalist that Dio remembers is not an important NPC active in the main scenario of the Order Board.

This is because there was no need for Dio to know the settings for characters who, like Ludens, had no special characteristics.

“master. “I have brought you the guests I mentioned before.” As

soon

as Roberto finished speaking, the door to the cabin opened and an old man with a very benevolent appearance appeared.

“Hehe Robert. “Someone told me it was a special blood, so I had no idea it was such an important guest… Come in and get me a cup of tea.”

“Ah yes! yes!”

Roberto seemed quite surprised as he didn’t know that his owner would personally open the door and greet him, so he answered and entered the cabin.

“I see some familiar customers. “It’s shabby, but please come in.”

Despite the old man’s polite treatment, Dio had no choice but to be wary.

Because my first impression of an ‘old gentleman’ was the same as Ludens.

Of course, there were other reasons.

‘Did you recognize Sepia? In that case, this interest is also….’

“Schwalt!”

While Dio thought the old man recognized Sephia, he heard the voice of Evelyn, who was very surprised.

“okay. Little witch. You are much taller than when we last met. “Is your teacher well?”

“Yes yes! “Take care of yourself, Master!”

Evelyn, who was very nervous, answered, and as expected, Dio had an intuition that this old man called Schwalt was one of the seven stars.

“Ah, the introduction is late. “My name is Schwald Eindhauer, and you are Dio and…Sepia that Ludens mentioned, right?”

Schuwald, who was sitting on a chair, gave Dio and Sepia a greeting and introduced himself.

“Silver hair and golden eyes… she looks exactly like her…”

Schuwald muttered, immediately seeing Sepia’s appearance disguised by Evelyn’s recognition-impairing magic.

Although Schuwald’s meaningful words bothered him, Dio remembered the original purpose of coming to him and asked directly.

“You know us. “I heard the story, but is it really one of the seven stars?”

“Hehe, okay. Although it is lacking, it occupies an important position in leading the believers.”

Unlike Ludens, Dio did not let down his nervousness as Schuwald spoke, maintaining a humble attitude.

Rather, it is common for people like that to not easily reveal their true feelings.

Besides, wasn’t the opponent a big guy called the Vampire Lord?

“I understand what you said. But I don’t know what the seven stars are doing.”

“Didn’t Ludens tell you a story?”

“yes. Instead of telling us, they put us in danger. As he said, I came to Estellum in search of the elder, but I am the Seven Stars… so I still don’t trust you.”

“What kind of rudeness is that?”

Roberto, who was preparing tea, blushed and became upset at Dio’s words.

“Robert! You are precious guests. “Make no mistake.”

“But…”

Robert, who had stepped up to assert his master’s authority, was embarrassed and stuttered when Schuwald scolded him.

“Oh my. Your strength is that you are sensitive. “Didn’t I tell you over and over again that you should control your emotions well because it’s so easy to get swayed?”

“sorry. master.”

Robert bowed his head in response to Schuwald’s scolding and quietly retired to make tea.

“I’m sorry. Still, that kid is the only vampire who respects me. It’s upright and the future is bright.”

“no. “I was rude at first.”

Dio took a step back at Schuwald’s words, not sure if he was acting or sincere.

The only thing D.O truly believes in right now is the ‘system.’

—————

[Main Scenario – 1]

[Type: Class Quest]

[I encountered a person who remembered forgotten history. If you complete all background knowledge, you can draw out hidden special powers.]

[Reward: Class 1st Awakening]

—————

Quest content updated after Ludens is a story of forgotten history. It’s about finding out the background.

Judging by Evelyn’s reaction and various circumstances, it is almost certain that Schuwald is one of the seven stars.

However, he does not know whether the seven stars are his true allies or whether they are just beings he wants to use.

In the midst of all this, the system stated that it could cause class awakening through them, so I had no choice but to ask them, even though I believed in the system.

“I accidentally acquired a forgotten power and I need help from people who know about it. “Can you tell us about forgotten history?”

“Hehe, it’s history… It’s not difficult to tell children stories of the past. but!”

Schuwald stood up.

Then he went outside the cabin and spoke, and Dio watched him.

“Before that, I need to check if you have the ‘key’.”

“A key?”

“okay.”

Dio, who did not understand what Schuwald said, asked back, and Schuwald was still smiling with his arms behind his back.

“As much as you doubt the seven stars, shouldn’t I check on you too?”

“…Yes. What do I have to prove? “Can I show off the forgotten powers I possess?”

Dio spoke, recalling his forgotten sword skills, but Schuwald shook his head.

“The forgotten power you have is not the true power of the sun.”

“What is that?”

Trudging –

Instead of answering Dio’s question for a more detailed explanation, Schuwald walked in front of a nearby giant rock.

Schuwald, standing in front of the rock, released his hands from behind his back and slowly raised his fist.

bang!

Schuwald’s fist was instantly embedded in the rock.

Patter- As

Schwald removed his arm from the rock and shook off his hand, a small piece of rock dust fell to the floor.

‘what? Are you showing off your strength?’

Dio frowned as he did not understand Schuwald’s actions.

Although the strength to stick a fist into a rock is incredible, it is something that even a level 300 martial artist can easily do.

Even more so, I thought that the existence of the seven stars, who seemed so amazing, was nothing more than showing off their power.

“Come here and see.”

“yes?”

Schuwald, who had read Dio’s disappointed expression, still smiled and pointed to the rock in front of him.

“What do you want me to see?”

Dio responded bluntly and touched the rock that Schuwald had touched, and that was the moment.

Jeezjeokjeok-

Krrrrrrrr!

The rock, which had begun to crumble from the inside, instantly turned into powder and fell down in vain.

‘What is this?’

Dio broke into a cold sweat at the incredible power that unfolded before his eyes.

“This is the power of the sun. “Can you do it now?”

“…no. “I cannot use this power.”

Dio, who tried to calm his startled mind, shook his head.

Schuwald showed no sign of hitting the rock hard.

It was just a light action, like a child putting his fist into a sandbox…. Does

Sephia unconsciously use this force when she gets angry?

“How is it? “Don’t you want to deal with the power of the sun?”

“…Can I use the power of the sun if I learn from the elder?”

“Of course, if you really are the key.”

After hearing Schuwald’s words, Dio expressed doubts in his mind.

‘key?’

I don’t know what key Schuwald is talking about.

When I think of a key, the only thing that comes to mind is what was created when I gained power from the Death Knight.

However, learning the power of the sun itself is very beneficial to you.

Without hesitation, Dio nodded and opened his mouth.

“great. Please teach me. “Let’s deal with power.”

“Good idea. “Before that, there’s one thing I’d like to ask of you.”

Schuwald cleared his throat awkwardly, as if he was embarrassed, and Dio remembered why Robert had invited them here.

“Ah, do you mean blood?”

“okay. “I think you’ve already figured it out, but I need human blood on a regular basis… Have you heard anything from that friend of Ludens?”

“yes. Well, I heard that the believers of the sun were cursed.”

Dio recalled Ludens’ words that all the believers of the sun who lost in the Holy Demon War were cursed.

It was said that the former cardinal was living as a vampire because of that.

“Then the story will be quick. When the full moon rises, I go crazy and run wild. “Other friends are so extraordinary that they can control it, but I find it especially difficult to tolerate it.”

“Is there any special reason?”

“Well…I guess it’s because I’m lacking a lot. Even before I was cursed, I was a poor person whose skills didn’t improve much. So I had to double or triple the penance. Unlike other colleagues. “Hehehe.”

Schuwald narrowed his eyes at Dio who was looking at him and smiled with the kindness in the world.

“Shall I be honest? I bet you are the key we seven stars are looking for. Otherwise, there would be no way Roberto would have known about your special blood right away.”

Schuwald, who had strong faith in Roberto’s sensitive senses, spoke in a confident tone.

“You’re not going to bite your neck, are you?”

“Huh, can that be possible? “There are plenty of tools for collecting blood.”

Schuwald laughed brightly at Dio’s joke.

“With your blood containing the power of the key, you will be able to endure the upcoming full moon with greater ease than before.”

“Can you also explain what that key is?”

“I’ll tell you that if you become good at handling your powers.”

Dio thought that it was not easy to hear Schuwald’s sly suggestion.

‘In the end, in order to proceed with the quest, I will have no choice but to listen to Schuwald’s demands. If I can also use the power of the sun that I saw earlier, it is not a bad condition for me.’

Rather than trusting Schuwald, Dio decided to trust the system and accept his offer.

‘It doesn’t seem like he’s asking for blood with bad intentions. Well, it’s natural for vampires to want blood.’

Moreover, as Robert said, Schuwald was a person who supplied blood in a peaceful way.

‘If Schwald goes berserk, it’s clear that the progress of the quest will be disrupted… Anyway, it’s unusual. A vampire running rampant on a full moon.’

Dio, who decided to delve into the character Schwalt more accurately while receiving instruction, opened his mouth to Sephia and Evelyn.

“good. We will stay here for a while. Sepia, you too will receive lessons from the elders along with me.”

“all right.”

“Me too!”

Evelyn, who had heard of Schuwald’s reputation, raised her hand and shouted for him to join her as well.

“Don’t you little witch have a great teacher? “He won’t like it…”

“I’m a believer in the sun too! “I did a lot of research, and although it doesn’t have the power of sepia… won’t God give you strength if you pray hard?”

“Hehe, okay. “Just knowing the theory will be helpful someday.”

Schuwald agreed surprisingly easily, and Dio thought he was quite generous.

“master. “Tea and meals are ready.”

Robert suddenly approached them and reported to Schuwald.

“Okay. Now that the sun is setting, let’s go in and have a meal together. “The night comes early in the forest, so training starts tomorrow.”

“yes.”

“yes!”

Sepia and Aveline each answer in different tones.

Unlike them, Dio just looked at Schuwald’s back toward the cabin and pondered over the conversation they had just had.
