Surviving With An Sss Rank Inventory

Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 42

Episode 42

The witches who exist in the world of Order are those who are located on the ambiguous border between monsters and NPCs.

Basically, witches are treated as heretics in the world of order.

However, it is difficult to conclude that they are absolute evil like black magicians.

Among the many witches, there are some, like warlocks, who commit evil deeds and are hostile to the player.

On the other hand, there are witches who give players quests for research or are cooperative.

‘The Shadow Witch was just in the middle.’

The Shadow Witch that Dio remembers is a disciple of the ‘Witch of Balance’, the world’s strongest witch and hermit.

The level is around level 150 and no special items are given.

They continued to conduct strange research that was useless to players, and even the dropped items were only miscellaneous items.

In any case, it is clear why Dio wants to visit the Shadow Witch even though he has nothing to gain from fighting the witch.

‘With the witch’s knowledge, I might be able to discover Sepia’s condition that I don’t know about.’

Witches who devoted themselves to various research often knew things that players did not know.

However, that miscellaneous knowledge was not particularly helpful to the player.

Still, it was D.O.’s first time setting up ‘Solari’, so he was clinging to it with a feeling of grasping at straws.

‘There’s nothing to lose. Even if I fight a shadow witch, I can easily win.’

As befits its nickname, the Shadow Witch specializes in manipulating shadows.

Dio’s level was lower than that of the Shadow Witch, but he was able to gain the upper hand in Sangseong through the forgotten ‘width’ of his swordsmanship.

Light and heat using width would be fatal to the shadow witch.

‘Users who are trained as fire attribute wizards can deal with even if the level difference is double.’

At that time, Sepia spoke and cut off Dio’s thoughts.

“So, are you planning to ask the witch to look after my condition?”

“okay.”

Sephia, who heard from Dio about the reason for the change in destination, looked anxious.

“Can you trust witches?”

“Their perception is not good. But knowledge is real.”

“Still…”

In a world that is hell-bent on burning witches at the stake, Sepia’s anxiety was natural in a way.

“don’t worry. “I can definitely appease the witch I’m going to meet now.”

“….”

Sephia said nothing more as Dio spoke confidently.

They headed towards Hafner Valley, where the Shadow Witch was.

* * *

A cave located deep in the Hafner Valley.

Deeper along the depths of the cave, there was a very dirty room.

A thick book lies on a shelf, and a bundle of parchment with all kinds of complex formulas written on it.

The light shining in the crude wooden candlesticks indicated that this was a place where people lived.

-Cool

On the dirty sofa in the corner.

There was a witch who was fast asleep, using her cone hat as an eyepatch.

Caw-caw-

The sound of a crow covering the sound of a witch snoring.

It must have been deep in a cave with no windows, but a crow, who didn’t know how it got in, landed on the witch’s head.

Caw-caw-!

“Umm…just 5 minutes. “No, just one minute…”

The witch, who seemed to have no intention of getting up despite the crow crowing loudly, whined.

In response, the crow grabbed the witch’s conical hat with its beak and threw it away, and even jumped up and down on her face.

“Oh, I understand.”

The shadow witch could no longer endure the crow’s persistent alarm.

A lot of matted black hair.

The witch had deep dark circles under her eyes, looking scruffy and not knowing when she had washed her face.

“Haam~ So what is it?”

The Shadow Witch removed her dirty eyes and yawned at her familiar, the crow.

-Caw-caw-

caw The crow’s eyes began to turn red and it cawd as if it were speaking human language.

“what? intruder?”

The shadow witch wakes up from her sleep after hearing the news from the crow.

At this, the witch’s eyes lit up as if she had discovered treasure, rather than as if an intruder had come in.

“ha ha ha! What kind of arrogant guy came to visit? “Our cuties were already busy because it was harvest season.”

The shadow witch licked her lips as if she was appetizing the delicious food in front of her.

Ting –

The shadow witch tapped the crystal ball rolling on the floor with her finger, and a clear sound echoed throughout the room.

“Potato class!”

-Kuruk. Did you call me, witch?

A place reflected in a crystal sphere.

There, orcs appeared flocking to the witch’s call.

“It seems like a visitor came from outside. “Please scold me moderately and take everything I have.”

– Kuwok. All right.

The orcs were naturally dispatched as if this was the first time something like this had happened.

The Shadow Witch giggled to herself as she watched the orcs heading outside, gathering various farming tools.

‘Hehe, I hope I’m a rich kid. Buy a broody hen and eat one egg every day…!’

The shadow witch, unaware of what would happen in the future, could only imagine happiness while massaging her hungry stomach.

* * *

Caw-Caw-

A flock of crows circling in the blue sky, croaking ominously.

The oak cave located below was giving off a very gloomy aura.

“Is that right there? “I can’t see any witches or orcs?”

Sepia, who was watching the orc cave from afar, asked Dio next to her.

“wait. Perhaps the witch has already seen us come…”

“Oh, there are orcs out there!”

Even before Dio finished speaking, a group of orcs appeared from within the cave.

At this, Sepia must have been nervous and tightly grasped the bow she was wearing with both hands.

“But you still can’t see the witch? “Shouldn’t we ask the witch for help?”

Dio shook his head in response to Sepia’s question.

“The witch won’t come out. “The only way to talk to her is to deal with those orcs and enter the cave.”

“Are you saying that fighting with orcs is inevitable?”

“Even if you hide, there is only one entrance to the orc den, so you have no choice but to eventually run into orcs. Besides, it would be better to fight outside than inside the cave.”

Sephia nodded at Dio’s explanation.

“great. “I can easily deal with orcs now.”

Sephia, who had previously dealt with two orcs, tried to confidently step forward, but Dio grabbed her by the back.

“why? “You said you were going to fight?”

“Don’t be hasty. “It’s only after I see you that you go on a rampage.”

“What do you mean by that?”

Sephia got very annoyed with Dio, who sometimes used words that were difficult to understand.

“It means you need map reading.”

“I still don’t know.”

Dio, ignoring Sepia’s complaints, scanned the location of the orc den, including the outpost.

In any game, including Order Board, map reading, which identifies terrain features, is a very important element for the player.

It is no exaggeration to say that experts and low-level players are divided depending on their level of map reading proficiency.

‘Orcs work in groups, so they become stronger in proportion to their numbers. That’s why the recommended level for Hafner Valley, where the Shadow Witch is located, is 90.’

The number of orcs that came out of the cave exceeded ten.

Now that I am accompanying Sepia.

Dio couldn’t act like the order board play he did without his lower-level teammates.

You could easily handle it on your own, but now you are not alone, you are also a ‘guardian’.

Moreover, it would be a waste to miss the opportunity to raise Sepia’s level and gain experience.

“The number of orcs that have come out now is twelve. “We are fully prepared for the attack.”

“Shouldn’t we attack before the defense is in place?”

Sepia asked, recalling the preemptive strike and surprise attack that Dio had taught her.

“This training is about how to deal with enemies who have deployed their defenses. In other words, I will teach you the tactical aspects.”

“…all right.”

Sepia nodded, and Dio pointed to the orcs going up to the guard post.

“Can you see over there?”

“yes. “I think they’re looking for us.”

Sepia spoke her thoughts as she looked at the orcs looking around from the guard post.

“that’s right. They must have heard from the witch that we were coming. “It will be difficult to approach easily.”

“Then what should I do?”

In response to Sepia’s question, Dio continued to explain as if it were obvious.

“Suppress the troops at the guard post first. Being surrounded by enemies can be a pain in the ass. The number of orcs you can face head-on with your abilities is at most three. If it goes beyond that, you too will be in danger.”

“You mean to occupy the hill and destroy them individually?”

Dio nodded, seeing that Sephia was clearly understanding.

“If you feel like you will be surrounded, run away. “I say I will look after you, but if you show off your courage, you will end up in trouble.”

“I don’t try to run away.”

Are you re-committing to yourself?

Sephia wasn’t scared at all even though it was her first time fighting dozens of orcs.

Dio was worried that his overconfidence might be poisonous, but he was somewhat relieved by Sephia’s next words.

“I’ll still be careful.”

Pride brings destruction even to the strong.

It was clear that Sephia, who understood this, would be able to easily end this battle.

“good. “I will take care of the rest, so you take full responsibility for the guard post.”

“I’m ready.”

After Dio’s words, Sepia checked the equipment she was carrying once again.

The durability of the crystal bow, the number of arrows, and the Lycan Kukri knife.

Dio, who took his eyes off Sepia’s appearance, sent a signal at the right time.

“now!”

Ping –

As soon as Dio finished speaking, the bowstring was pulled back.

The

arrow fired with the crystal bow cut through the wind and pierced the chest of the orc on top of the guard post.

Deep!

“Kuwoeook!”

An orc hit by an arrow screams.

Afterwards, Sepia ran forward and Dio followed behind her.

Ding-dating-

“They’re here!”

“I scold you. “Gurgling!

Two orcs rushed towards Sepia, who was heading straight to the guard post.

But the two orcs could not reach Sepia.

Suddenly!

“Kueeeeek!”

The full-scale fight began, starting with Dio, who cut down those orcs in one go.

* * *

“Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!”

thud!

An orc falls down with the sound of a pig being slaughtered.

“Whew…”

Sephia, who had completely taken out the last remaining orcs, sighed and jumped down from under the guard post.

“Good work.”

Dio handed Sepia some water, and Sephia drank the water without saying a word.

It was quite a difficult battle for Sepia, but thanks to Dio’s support, she won the battle without any major injuries.

‘Sepia’s level has risen considerably.’

Dio looked at the sepia status window and smiled with satisfaction.

‘If you grow up a little more, I can give you proper equipment.’

Dio will soon be level 100. Of course, there is no big change.

Normally, he would become explosively stronger by wearing equipment limited to level 100, but that ended at level 90.

However, the situation of Sephia, who is about to reach level 50, is different from Dio.

‘If only I knew the class clearly, I could give you more efficient equipment. ‘It’s a shame.’

Although the Crystal Bow was a powerful item, it could not kill the orcs in one blow.

If Sepia had the strongest equipment appropriate for her level, the battle would have been much easier.

Still, the arrows sufficiently lowered the combat power of the Orcs, so they were well worth the unique grade.

‘Thanks to this, Sepia was able to take over the guard post.’

Afterwards, it was natural that the injured Orcs were no match for Sepia.

As Dio instructed, Sephia took advantage of the limited space and reliably dealt with the Orcs coming up through close combat.

If you arm yourself with high-grade items that match Sepia’s level, rather than training items that have no level limit, you will become much stronger than this.

“Will the witch stay still even though we made such a mess?”

“You must be angry.”

“Huh? Then you can’t!”

Sepia’s cry of incomprehensibility.

Seeing her like that, Dio just smiled.
