Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 165

Episode 165:

Originally, Elaine’s oath was not in Dio’s prior plan.

From the beginning, all work to undo Elaine’s brainwashing was left to Crassus.

So when Kalphael tried to heal Elaine with illusion magic, I wasn’t very interested.

Because being called the Seven Stars is a task that one can do well.

However, an unexpected situation occurred, and D.O. had no choice but to step forward.

As soon as Dio used the oath of liberation on Elaine, he entered her consciousness.

A different method from sepia.

This may have been because Elaine, the subject of the oath, was mentally unstable.

‘The polluted world tree… that level of dominance even though Crassus destroyed the main body.’

Dio recalled the memory of encountering a part of the polluted World Tree in Elaine’s consciousness.

The World Tree’s anger at Dio’s words trying to persuade Elaine looked like a demon.

Dio, too, was almost expelled out of Elaine’s consciousness due to the pushing force of the World Tree.

However, even the power of the World Tree could not dare to invade the realm of the ‘system’ used by Dio.

[While the Oath of Liberation is in progress, the caster resists threats from the target.]

After systematically showing that Dio was safe, Dio was able to talk to Elaine without worry.

Of course, it was unclear whether he would accept the oath of liberation or not… but fortunately, Elaine held Dio’s hand.

[The designated target has accepted the ‘contract’.]

[Stamina is consumed depending on the status condition applied to the target.]

[If the stamina required for consumption is insufficient, the contract may fail.]

[The oath of liberation has been completed. .]

[According to the oath, 10% of the player’s stats are destroyed.]

[According to the oath, the target, , is subordinate to the player.]

At that moment, complete ‘recovery from abnormal status’ is possible with the oath of liberation. It was immediately applied to Elaine.

As can be seen from Kalphael’s explanation, what was constantly whispering to Elaine was the curse of the polluted World Tree.

This may be the same for other elves, but it is unclear whether others will accept the curse of the World Tree to the end like Elaine.

This was because Elaine was a special case.

The fear of thinking that if you find out the truth, there will be no reason to live.

It was so big that it protected itself from the curse of the World Tree.

However, it has been affected by the mental attack of the polluted World Tree.

Now that the oath of liberation has been completed, Elaine’s strong heart has been revived.

After waking up, Elaine sobbed and apologized to Crassus.

I no longer made the extreme choice of choosing my own death.

Nevertheless, Elaine felt so sorry that Dio gave her the first order.

Don’t feel sorry for Crassus anymore.

And for the sake of Crassus and the elves, we must annihilate the true enemy.

In an instant, the new revenge that Dio had told her took root in her heart.

Luna polluted the World Tree and made her people point swords at each other.

Her hatred for the moon controlled her heart, and she followed Dio’s orders without complaint to make this happen.

No, in fact, he even took the lead in killing the demon beasts rather than Dio.

‘It was unexpected, but I guess I’m glad it worked out well.’

Dio looked at Elaine, who had prioritized clearing away the demonic beasts that were a threat to the group.

“All nearby enemies have been annihilated.”

Elaine spoke to Dio in a hard voice.

Even though we made a pact, my relationship with her doesn’t seem to have improved much.

Although Dio helped through a pledge, the relationship of ‘subordination’ was unclear to Elaine, who hated humans.

Well, it doesn’t matter anyway.

Because Elain no longer has hatred for Crassus.

When something unexpected happened due to Elain’s runaway, Dio could tell from Kalphael’s conversation that the curse of the polluted World Tree had not completely disappeared.

Kalphael explained that this was because Elaine amplified the World Tree’s curse because she did not want to accept the truth, but…

‘It seemed like she knew about the existence of the covenant.’

Kalphael’s actions seem to indicate that he knows that Dio has the skills to solve the problem.

Of course, it could not be guaranteed that he knew this from the beginning and deliberately led this situation.

In fact, Kalphael also seemed very embarrassed during Elain’s rampage.

‘It would seem that he knows some of Solari’s power.’

Anyway, putting Kalphael’s doubts aside, the decisive reason for using the Pledge of Liberation on Elaine was simple.

‘Thanks to you, I ended the Demon Lord’s hunt easily.’

Dio can gain immediate benefits by subordinating Elaine.

It was ‘dope’.

Originally, Dio had planned to end the demon hunting in a reasonable manner.

If you receive the help of the seven stars, the experience points you can gain will be allocated to a small amount.

However, by making Elaine a subordinate as a pledge of liberation, that problem was completely solved.

It is possible to subordinate transcendental beings of level 400 or higher.

In addition, since Elaine was systematically placed under Dio’s command, Dio was able to gain some of the experience points from her hunting.

Thanks to this, when the respawn monsters became dangerously strong, Dio was able to monopolize even their experience points through Elaine.

So, among the group, it was Dio who was able to level up more than anyone else.

Thanks to Elaine, the help of the seven stars has reached a point where it is virtually unnecessary.

In any case, it is difficult to level up the seven stars with the experience points gained from the Demon World, so in reality, the only ones who can benefit are Dio and his companions.

Dio originally thought that his level in the Demon World would be around 380.

This was because he was worried about the situation on the continent as he was unable to spend the whole day hunting in the devil’s land.

However, since Elaine joined as a pledge of liberation, the upper limit that Dio thought became meaningless.

Thanks to Elaine’s joining, Dio and his companions were able to hunt faster than expected, and everyone achieved the feat of reaching level 400 or higher.

This was possible because of the special conditions of the magic world.

The monsters that respawn become increasingly stronger and you can receive experience rewards based on the appropriate level.

So, if the conditions are right, the player can hit a maximum of 450 in Demonic Land.

Anything more than that is because there are limits to the Demon World, but Dio has reached a goal that is much higher than his original goal.

Not only did he raise his level, but the fact that Elaine became his subordinate also meant that Dio’s power increased further.

Elaine holds the ‘Master’ class.

Ranger Master’s agility stat correction value increases by +20%.

In addition, Elaine was an elf race whose abilities were set to be superior to those of the human race.

Also a high elf.

As a result, the agility and intelligence modifiers increase by 10%, allowing you to have even worse stats than your peers.

Even Elaine’s abilities aren’t just about strength.

She is the younger sister of Crassus, the former elder of the elves, and is someone who even received the protection of the forest spirit.

‘To the extent that Crassus values Elaine, my life will be guaranteed.’

Dio looked at ‘Vijaya’ held by Elaine.

This was a gift that Crassus gave to Elaine out of regret.

Thanks to this, Elaine’s combat ability has improved significantly compared to before.

However, there were not only benefits to Elaine’s joining.

Dio, who agreed to Kalphael’s intentions, immediately remembered the oath of liberation.

I couldn’t help but think about the penalty for the pledge of liberation.

The Oath of Liberation cannot be easily used, and it cannot be guaranteed that one will be able to obtain a power stronger than that of Elaine in the future.

In fact, at this point, Elaine can be seen as the perfect person for Dio’s oath of liberation.

If so, the biggest problem is that you have to pay 10% of the stats in return, which was a pretty painful penalty for Dio, who had raised his level considerably.

As I leveled up so far, I found all kinds of hidden pieces and raised my stats to make up for the first oath penalty.

From the recovered stats, 10% is again deducted.

Since the stat reduction given in the penalty is proportional, it is natural that the higher the level, the more you lose.

Dio was even given double bonus points from level 250 thanks to Solari’s blessing.

‘Still, considering that I was able to raise my level to this level thanks to Elaine…’

—————

Unlike Sepia and Elaine, it drops cleanly to 0. Dio’s stats.

This was because Dio distributed the stats appropriately enough to use them efficiently.

In addition, there were a whopping 429 bonus points that had not yet been used.

With the current stats alone, hunting Demon Lords was not a problem, so I left it behind.

Dio decided to save bonus points for future situations.

As of now, Dio has a strength comparable to the seven stars or the five swords.

Anyway, when he made the oath of liberation with Elaine, Dio was around level 300.

In order to make up for the lost points, Dio and Elaine constantly wandered around the magic world.

And from the moment Dio’s stats surpassed Elaine’s, Dio’s dominance began in earnest.

Although the respawn monsters became stronger, it was actually a good thing for Dio, who was growing twice as fast as others.

The higher the hunting difficulty, the more experience Dio gains.

So, I was able to reach level 450, which is the maximum level that can be achieved in Demonic World.

‘It’s too time consuming to get everyone else to level 450.’

Dio was able to gain this level of experience thanks to Elaine and Sepia, who were subordinates, but it was a lot of time loss to take care of the other party members.

It would be better to go to a hunting ground that gives more experience than the Demon Lord during that time, but…

‘There is no need to rush right now. Still, I guess I have to finish it now.’

Dio tried to ask Elaine in front of him if she was in a state where she could continue hunting.

But before Dio could say anything, Crassus’ voice was heard.

“Elaine. “Are you hurt anywhere?”

“…are you okay.”

After seeing Crassus’ greetings, Elaine hid behind Dio’s back and muttered as if she was embarrassed for some reason.

“Isn’t it time to get used to it?”

“shut up. “It’s still awkward.”

After apologizing to Crassus, Elaine could not even look at Crassus properly due to the overwhelming embarrassment.

However, this does not mean that he completely ignored her.

Crassus gave Elain Visaya as a gift and they hunted down demonic beasts together.

However, Dio said there was no need to overprotect Crassus and left the hunting of the demonic beasts entirely to Elaine.

This was because if Crassus intervened, the experience points that could be monopolized would be split in two.

Of course, Crassus did not understand this, but Dio requested the support of the seven stars, including Crassus, solely in searching for the demonic beasts.

Even now, Calliope is away to check the respawn situation of the demon beasts, as requested by Dio.

Since there was some time left before she returned, Dio gave the group a short rest.

He also needs to think about his actions after finishing the hunt for Demon Lord.
