Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 62
Episode 62
“The god of the sun?”
Dio was skeptical about the being that referred to itself as God.
[A person who crosses dimensions. Dio.]
Solari called out to Dio, who remained alert.
Dio felt his tense mind relax as he heard Solari’s calm voice calling out to him.
[I understand that you are wary of me. But please know this one thing.]
‘But where does the voice come from?’
Because Dio could not confirm the reality of Solari, he was at a loss as to where to focus his gaze.
Then, suddenly, a flower with green leaves placed in front of the altar caught my eye.
The flower petals sway every time Solari’s voice is heard.
Dio opened his mouth to the flower as it seemed to represent her.
“What do you mean?”
[That I wish you happiness.]
A gentle warm wind enveloped Dio.
Dio could not understand Solari’s sudden blessing.
‘happiness? Do you want to eat well and live well? What good does that have for the Solari?’
The flower shook up and down at the sight of Dio like that.
It seemed like he was smiling.
As if I knew it would happen because of his unchanging appearance.
[Isn’t there something you want to ask me?]
“Why is the God of the Sun in a place like this? “Is this really a dimensional gap?”
Dio asked the question that came to mind first.
A moment of silence.
Dio listened intently to see what answer Solari would give.
[A thousand years ago. I lost my power because of my sister’s wrong choice.]
[My sister’s name is Luna. As the goddess of the moon, she was powerful enough to block out the sun.]
At Solari’s words, Dio recalled the story Ludens had told.
The story is that Taeyang was betrayed by Luna and forgotten by everyone.
[I lost most of my strength at that time and managed to create a haven using my remaining strength.]
“So…this isn’t a dimensional gap?”
[D.I.O. I cannot give you a correct answer because I have not experienced the dimensional gap you are talking about.]
Dio was lost in thought at Solari’s words.
‘Even powerful goddesses do not know the gap between dimensions. Are you saying that the system is located at a higher level than this?’
Dio secretly hoped that if this was a dimensional gap, he would find a way to return to the original world.
However, after hearing Solari’s words, my expectations quickly turned into disappointment.
“Do you know how I can return to my original world?”
Still, out of concern, Dio cautiously asked Solari.
[I don’t know anything about that. I’m sorry. [I couldn’t help you.]
Dio was secretly surprised at Solari’s polite apology.
Even so, I never thought the so-called goddess would bow her head.
Well, that’s it.
Since it seemed like the divine being was friendly to him, Dio thought he would ask everything at this point.
“But why are you saying that I, who am not even from this world, am the key? “There must be many outstanding believers who follow you.”
Dio said, recalling the seven stars who had observed the inaction up close.
Even though Solari appeared before his eyes, Dio did not have the faith that the seven stars had.
Moreover, even Dio’s power of the sun was not a power that had fully grown, so it was nothing compared to the power of the seven stars.
It was something that Dio could not understand by what standard the ‘qualifications’ that Kalfael was talking about were created.
[My children cannot use my full power now. Because they are all cursed.]
“Are you saying that I, who am not cursed, am suitable for the key?”
[yes. Dio, who comes from another dimension, is the only being unaffected by Luna. There is no key more suitable than Dio.]
Dio nodded at Solari’s words.
“Then…can you tell me a story about your past? “Everything about that war.”
At this point, Dio also brought up the history story he was planning to ask Schuwald about.
Honestly, it would be more accurate to hear it from the Sun God himself rather than from Schuwald.
[After Genesis, Luna and I dreamed of human prosperity.]
[We maintained an era of peace for a long time, but then he appeared.]
“The Devil?”
Solari’s words reminded Dio of the Demon King who appears in the final chapter of The Order.
[yes. ‘Rademos’, the demon king who reigns over countless evil gods.]
Solari, who agreed with Dio’s words, continued.
[Born in the darkness where the sun cannot reach, he planned to completely erase the light of the world.] [
We must fight to restore an era of peace.]
[The great warriors who believe in me will bravely fight against Rademos. We fought and won. But…]
“Luna then?”
Dio muttered softly, remembering what he had heard from Ludens.
[Poor child. Luna was a goddess who loved peace more than anyone else.]
[I didn’t notice. Luna’s pain. [Her jealousy.]
Solari recalled the memory of that time and said faintly.
[Luna joined hands with the Demon King and attacked me and the children.]
[I was defeated, and Luna used her momentum to defeat even the weakened Demon King.]
[But the Demon King did not die.]
[He lost his strength like me and was sealed. ]
[Over the course of a thousand years, the Demon King will regain the power he lost, and soon… he will bring darkness to the continent.]
Dio asked as if he did not understand Solari’s words.
“Why couldn’t Luna completely end you and the Demon King?”
[Luna was also weakened because she used too much power. But…]
[She probably knows by now. The resurrection of the devil. In preparation for that, they are increasing their power and yearning for greater power.]
Isn’t that enough for Dio in Solari’s words? A thought suddenly occurred to me.
In the story of the Order version that Dio played, didn’t Luna help the player in both material and spiritual ways to stop the resurrected Demon King?
However, Solari’s next words were different from Dio’s thoughts.
[Luna wants to protect her world. He will do whatever it takes to protect the ‘peace’ established in his name. Even if you become an evil spirit yourself.]
“Yes? So you’re saying she could bring disaster to the continent?”
Dio asked, surprised by Solari’s contradictory words.
[The back side of the moon is already being eroded into darkness. If this is left alone, she will even forget that she is a peace-loving goddess.]
Dio made an expression of disbelief at the new fact that he did not know in the original.
‘If you think about a Heretic Questioner like Scarlett, it’s not an entirely nonsensical story.’
Dio thought of Scarlett, who did not fit into the doctrine of peace and only pursued the fun of sadism.
Among Scarlett as well as other Inquisitors and Paladins, there were many who simply sought power.
Tiring-
—————
[Main Scenario]
[I learned the story of the gods involved in the Holy Demon War.]
[The Sun Goddess Solari and the Demon King Rademos were in a tense fight, but the Sun Taking advantage of the weakened evil, Luna, the goddess of the moon, achieved victory.] [
Luna is increasing her power in preparation for the demon lord who will one day be resurrected.]
[But unfortunately, Luna has already chosen the wrong path and uses herself as an excuse for peace. They do not know that it awakens the darkness.]
[If we work with Solari to stop Luna and the resurrection of the Demon King, we can prevent history from repeating itself.]
—————
Dio I looked at the newly updated main scenario and shook my head as if it made no sense.
“How can I stop you?”
Dio’s victory over the demon king Rademos was possible thanks to the help of the Luna Church’s saint, Kaleina.
However, the mission given now was like being told to oppose the two strongest forces at the same time, the Demon King and Luna.
It is virtually impossible.
[If you have the qualifications for the key and are fully grown, you will be able to fully use the power of the sun that you had a thousand years ago.]
Solari’s gentle tone turned solemn.
[A thousand years ago. The most powerful and accomplished child among my children.]
[Please follow in the footsteps of the Great Master and restore the era of peace.]
‘After the Great Master?’
Dio’s eyes lit up at Solari’s advice, which somehow had the scent of a previous quest.
“With the power of the Great Warrior, you mean you can stop the Demon King and Luna?”
[It would be difficult to do it on your own. If you grow together with my external self, you will gain strength that no one can compete with.]
“The present body?”
[sepia. It is no coincidence that she is subject to your oath.]
“What?”
I had guessed that it had something to do with the sun, but I couldn’t believe that Sepia was the incarnation of Solari…
“He’s a great warrior.”
Dio, who heard the whole story from Solari, closed his eyes.
Dio just wanted to become strong in order to survive in an unfamiliar world.
But suddenly you ask me to save the world.
This quest has too many hurdles compared to my current abilities.
[Even if you reject the offer, I don’t dare blame you.]
Solari, who noticed Dio’s wavering heart, spoke comfortingly.
“Wouldn’t it be difficult if you don’t have a key?”
[There will be no time to find the key again after a thousand years. Still, it’s something I can’t force on you. Especially for Dio, who left alone in an unfamiliar world.] If
the Great Warrior, who can use the full power of Solari, fails to participate in the future fight, the outcome was obvious.
But Solari didn’t bother to say it out loud.
“If I refuse, does that mean I will be disqualified from receiving the key and will not have to participate in the battle of the gods?”
[I guess so. Even if that happens, I won’t turn away from Dio. Only I know that you are a special person who crosses dimensions.] I
don’t know if Solari is telling the truth or trying to arouse sympathy.
but.
‘It’s not a disaster that won’t come even if I avoid it.’
If the Demon King is resurrected and Luna runs rampant, there will be no safe place for Dio.
So in the end, Dio’s only choice was to overcome it on his own.
It’s better to try something than to sit back and accept death.
Previously.
“Let me ask you just one question.”
[As much as you want.]
* * *
After a short question and answer with Solari, Dio made up his mind.
“great. “Let’s give it a try.”
As a result, the blue petals slowly swayed.
[thank you. Thank you for accepting my unreasonable demands.]
Hwaak –
Warm sunlight enveloped D.O.
Then, as a cluster of sparkling lights slowly descended from the sky, Dio folded his hands and caught it.
“This?”
[This is all the strength I gathered here. It’s a weak power, but it will help Dio’s growth.]
Paaat-
Along with the intense light, a halo of light appeared on the flower that Dio had been talking about.
Although he didn’t know if that was Solari’s true form, Dio could tell that this small sun-like ray of light was Solari.
[I won’t be here anymore. But I promise that I will always be by your side.]
Is it true that I gave you all my strength?
Although it wasn’t long since she appeared, Solari’s appearance gradually became blurred.
[With this, you will go out into the world as a great warrior of the sun.]
Solari laughed.
And then she gave a final blessing before disappearing completely.
[May the Radiance find your happiness.]
Solari did not tell you to fulfill your destiny as a great warrior.
As I said first.
She disappeared, wishing only Dio happiness.
