Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 22

Episode 22

Kwasik!

Dio looked at another warlock who had been crushed by his great sword and figured out the number of remaining enemies.

‘Four to go.’

As long as Sepia is subordinated, friction will arise with the warlocks at some point.

It would be convenient for Dio to let Viktor go for no reason and deal with him now, as he seems to have room to become stronger.

‘It is natural to step on it when the risk factor is minimal.’

Sigh!

“Gagging!”

Dio’s great sword plunges into the heart of the warlock who was crawling on the floor.

There are now three remaining enemies.

One of them was Victor.

“Protect Victor until he completes the magic circle!”

“Hee hee! “You protect it!”

The sight of the warlocks struggling was truly a sight to behold.

If the leader, Viktor, is a 3rd circle warlock, the warlocks under him are at the 2nd circle level at best, so it is reasonable.

‘The only threatening skill they use is Shadow Bolt.’

The moment Dio, who was aware of this, observed the actions of the warlocks.

Tsupat!

As Dio expected, a warlock fired a flame that condensed darkness.

Ting-!

However, the power of the Shadow Bolt could not pierce the great sword of destruction equipped by Dio.

“Stop him!”

“Pounce!”

The warlocks seemed frustrated at this, but for some reason, they recklessly rushed at Dio.

puck!

“Gagging!”

When Dio struck the charging warlock between the eyes with the handle of his great sword, the man fell helplessly.

‘But you’re not completely stupid. ‘I guess they’re trying to buy time for Viktor.’

As if Dio’s thoughts were correct, the warlocks swung their daggers at random and tried to block his approach in any way possible.

“Die Lord!”

Dio, who had no way of being hit by a dagger wielded by a warlock, deflected the arm thrown by the man and twisted it strongly.

Puzzle-

“Kaaaaaaak!”

Dio then pushed away the screaming warlock and swung his great sword, cutting him in two.

Jeokjeok –

Dio was watching Viktor’s actions through the cracking body of the warlock.

‘Due to Viktor’s personality, he won’t try to kill me quickly with the ‘black chain’. ‘I will use a more reliable method that will cause pain slowly.’

Although it is magic, the ‘black chain’ can inflict physical damage.

Dio was able to predict Viktor’s next move just by the fact that he did not attack quickly with his special ability.

‘I’ll aim for something big.’

Wow –

sure enough.

Victor, who had bought time by sacrificing his subordinates, was casting while emitting condensed ominous mana.

The magic he prepares is ‘Eternal Curse’.

This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com

The attribute is dark and the fear type is cursed.

It is impossible to avoid curse-type skills with targeting skills.

In addition, once the Eternal Curse is hit, it takes dot damage until it dies.

However, this does not mean that there is no way to overcome the curse.

You can kill the target who has higher resistance than the 3rd circle curse or who used the spell.

‘Of course, I have no intention of being cursed.’

widely!

Dio’s new model stepped forward.

Thanks to Victor’s subordinates buying him time, the man’s confident expression shows that he has almost completed the spell.

‘The casting has been completed.’

The casting stage of Eternal Curse is divided into three stages.

Focused casting and targeting.

It is easy for Dio to predict the level of completion of a spell through the depth of condensed mana.

However, Victor, who had no way of knowing this, brightened his eyes as if this was an opportunity.

Concentration and casting were already completed in a melee.

Now, if you target your opponent for the last time….

“Hehehe, it’s over!”

However, the moment when Viktor looked at Dio running towards him and was about to fire the concentrated mana.

Hahahaha!

“What…!”

A warlock blocking Viktor’s view… no, a cold corpse.

As the target of the curse was hidden from view, Victor panicked and quickly withdrew his hand.

“It’s unfortunate. “If it had been a 5-circle casting speed, I might have had a bit of trouble.”

“You damn bastard!”

Victor, who could not have imagined that using a corpse as a shield to deviate from targeting, shouted in rage.

“Why are you so embarrassed?”

Dio’s laugh reached right in front of Viktor.

“Noooooom!”

As Victor shouted, becoming even more enraged, the guy’s skin turned black.

Fuha!

Flare used by wizards who need to increase distance to ward off their opponents.

Black smoke erupted from inside Viktor’s body, taking away Dio’s vision.

But there’s no reason Dio couldn’t anticipate Viktor’s flare.

‘It’s obvious.’

Long-distance attackers like Victor tend to leave defensive measures to increase distance from their opponents.

As Dio, who had experienced this countless times, predicted, Viktor blocked his view to protect himself.

This also applies to him, and Dio does not need to use a corpse as a shield.

In other words, he gave up the ‘target’ of the curse.

Dio, who was laughing at Viktor in his heart, looked at the black fog.

Before long, the fog that had obscured Dio’s vision cleared for a moment, and Victor appeared.

In line with this, Dio’s eyes were fixed on both of Viktor’s angry hands.

‘You idiot, do you think you can hit it if you change it to a non-target?’

A decision to make in a situation where the guy can’t target.

He was careful because the curse was targeting, but if it was used as a general projectile magic, it would no longer be a threat to Dio.

Tuhwaaagh-!

A shooting mana sphere passes Dio’s ears.

‘If it’s that big… I’ll take another shot.’

Cracking pat-!

Dio avoided all of Viktor’s time lag attacks with light movements.

If you are a warlock with around 3 circles like Viktor, you can divide the mana you have collected to use powerful skills.

This means that the targeting magic prepared for one shot can be converted into two non-targeting spells.

Just by looking at the size of the mana sphere that had just been dodged, one could tell how much Viktor had split the spell, so it was a possible prediction.

“If only I had offered that sacrifice, I could have reached the 7th circle!”

Victor’s cries of evil were heard, but Dio’s skills were faster this time.

“What 7th circle? “Even if you try that, the 5th circle is your limit.”

“I’m dying!!!”

Dio, who was smiling at Viktor, who was screaming in anger, threw the corpse he had been dragging at him.

Quagwagwang!

“Ugh!”

The marks on the corpse exploded and covered Victor’s entire body.

Necromancer’s corpse explodes.

Dio, who had already learned a variation of a forgotten sword technique, imitated it.

The power of the explosion was not enough to kill Viktor instantly, but it didn’t matter to Dio.

‘It’s over!’

While Viktor was suffering from the hot flames, Dio’s great sword tried to cut him down. But-

‘Huh?’

Obviously, cutting off Victor’s head will end this.

Nevertheless, Dio paused for a moment while swinging the great sword.

The moment the explosion occurred was a split second.

Nevertheless, is this time when the afterglow of the explosion seems to be prolonged, is it D.O.’s illusion?

Hwareuk –

Even though it was a very short period of time that could not be felt by human senses, Dio could see that the flames from the explosion were still burning.

‘what? Is this new magic?’

Dio narrowed his eyes and looked at the flames.

The sight of Victor in pain and the flames flickering as if they are alive around him.

Dio, wary of this strange phenomenon, drew back his greatsword.

‘Victor did not have this ability. Is it a spirit? No, this is…what is it?’

The flame burning unusually before his eyes was most likely an unknown territory that Dio did not know about.

Therefore, Dio did not hastily attack Viktor and decided to observe the situation.

Grrrr-!

As if Dio’s judgment was correct, the living flame soon blazed menacingly and created a single shape.

‘What is that? whip? No, that’s a chain!’

Dio, who sensed something unusual about the chain created by the flames, withdrew his greatsword and fell away from Viktor.

‘This is dangerous! ‘Can I survive with my equipment?’

Salamander equipment set with fire resistance.

I thought most fire attacks wouldn’t work, but the flames in front of me had unusual momentum.

It’s so hot just by being this far away.

Even Viktor seemed to be in pain from the hot flames.

‘…Why? ‘Why is Viktor in pain?’

Victor is expected to be the source of the flame.

However, the sight of him feeling pain was enough for Dio to have doubts.

For what reason is the orderer himself suffering?

Are you saying it wasn’t the magic Viktor used?… Then who?

-Hmm….

“What?”

Dio turned around at the sound of angry sobs.

Isn’t Sepia, who thought she was protecting her from a safe distance, sobbing with her red eyes shining?

“sepia? sepia!”

Dio, who was embarrassed, called Sephia’s name, but she seemed to be out of her mind and did not hear Dio’s cry.

-You too… suffer!

Sepia’s wailing sound echoes with thick flames.

Dio, who was watching this, could feel it.

The tears Sepia is shedding now contain powerful anger.

Cluck!

A chain made of flames bound Viktor’s limbs at once, as if to appease Sepia’s twisted smile.

“Kaaaaaaak!”

An indescribable scream was heard from the pain caused by the chains that were constricting Viktor’s entire body.

“stop! Please…Krrrrrrgh!”

Despite Viktor’s cries of pleading, the chains did not stop tightening his body.

Rather, as if this wasn’t enough, he pried open his mouth and started burning all of Viktor’s organs.

Grrrr!

“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.”

Eventually, Viktor’s screams stopped and the chains were released after he died, but the flames were still burning hotly.

“Magic with ego…”

Dio muttered as he watched the entire process while holding his great sword tightly.

The flame drew Dio’s attention by repeatedly contracting and relaxing, leaving the charred Viktor alone.

As I said before, it’s like having an ego.

Gulp –

Dio, who was wondering if the flames might attack him, swallowed.

But fortunately, the flames died down after killing Victor.

At the same time, Sepia faints.

Whisper-

“Sepia!”

Dio hurriedly ran to the unconscious Sephia.

It was only after checking the sepia that there were tears that had not yet dried that Dio was able to breathe a sigh of relief.

“Whoa….”

Sephia seemed to be not fully conscious.

But is he aware that he took revenge with his own hands?

She looked much more comfortable sleeping.

‘What on earth was that just now?’

Dio, who was convinced that the source of the unfamiliar flame was Sepia, was lost in thought.

Most NPCs who can use egoic magic are those who have risen to the ranks of the strongest and can only be encountered in later content.

‘Is this why Sepia was sacrificed…and why Viktor mentioned the 7th Circle?’

An NPC who has been sacrificed countless times by warlocks.

An NPC that is simply used as a medium to awaken the important character Sigmund.

A character who is only mentioned briefly and cannot escape the fate of the scenario.

‘Are you saying it wasn’t a coincidence?’

Sepia’s unexpected abilities made Dio realize that she had not just been kidnapped due to bad luck.

‘If I do this well…’

Sepia seemed unable to control her own abilities.

If control was possible, someone like Victor wouldn’t even be able to touch Sepia’s fingertips.

Dio, who carefully held Sepia in his arms, walked slowly, feeling the need to reorganize his future plans.
