Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 161
Episode 161:
Kalphael also assumed the danger of mental maniption looming over the polluted world tree.
However, there is one fact that Kalfael overlooked.
That was the inner thought inherent in ine’s unconscious.
“My illusion magic will not harm ine’s body at all. “It just shows the truth.”
Kalphael exined that ine’s runaway was not due to a mistake in her magic.
“I showed it to ine. What Luna did to Taeyang. “What they did to Sri.”
“Could it be that they rejected it because their belief in the World Tree is so strong?”
Roberto, who was listening to Kalfael’s words, made his own guess.
But Kalfael shook his head.
“no. “It’s not because of that.”
“then?”
“I guess it’s because of guilt.”
Dio, who was watching the whole situation, helped out.
The day the World Tree first burned down.
At that time, ine lost everything.
Not only the world tree, but also the person you love the most.
There is only one reason why ine has lived until now.
This is to kill Crassus, the main culprit who burned the World Tree and the enemy of the n.
But what if everything that gave ine a reason to live was a lie?
Luna’s n in collusion with the darkness.
The terrible truth that the polluted world tree deceived all the elves.
Dio didn’t think ine would ept this easily.
Because it’s not something you can just say sorry for misunderstanding.
Because it means denying the entire beliefs of your life up until now.
“in… seems as if she wants to apologize in death. “I had no idea ine would make such an extreme choice.”
Crassus was devastated by Kalfael’s exnation and stared nkly at ine, who was running wild.
But I couldn’t just sit still like this.
“in is not that weak. “I can do it somehow…”
Crassus gritted his teeth and tried to approach ine.
However, Kalphael urgently stopped Crassus.
“Let’s stop. “The closer Crassus approaches, the worse the situation will be.”
“Do not be ridiculous! “I’m the only one who understands ine!”
“no. “You are not the one who will understand her.”
“what?”
Crassus red at Kalphael’s assertiveness.
“Mr Crassus. Haven’t you been avoiding in for hundreds of years? “We haven’t even talked properly in a while.”
“….”
Crassus could not reply to Kalfael’s words.
I never for a moment thought of ine as anything other than a precious family member.
But does ine really think that way?
The days of happy days are now a thing of the past.
In fact, the rtionship between Crassus and ine can be seen as strangers.
No, for nearly a thousand years, ine had thought of Crassus as her enemy.
That’s why Crassus couldn’t get close to her and could only watch from afar.
In this situation, Crassus could not deny Kalphael’s words.
“Among the people here right now, the only one who can understand ine is…”
Kalphael, leaving the distraught Crassus alone, looked at Dio.
“…Why are you looking at me?”
Dio expressed doubt at Kalfael’s gaze.
Although I knew a lot of information about ine, I didn’t think I could understand her.
In addition, didn’t Dio, like ine, find out toote that the World Tree was Luna’s puppet?
Dio thought of ine, who had always raised her eyebrows at him during this expedition.
So I couldn’t understand Kalphael’s actions even more.
‘I don’t understand…How can I understand ine?’
Even if he understood, Dio couldn’t even guess what he should do.
Are you asking me to go and offer some words offort?
I feel like I want to kill him here and absorb his experience points.
“in’s current runaway is not a phenomenon that urs arbitrarily. “The power of the polluted World Tree still remains in ine’s mind.”
“…?”
Kalfael began to exin in’s current state to Dio, who did not understand anything.
“The polluted world tree is deceiving ine because the truth I told you is a lie.”
“You weren’t confident you could break the brainwashing!”
“in won’t let go of the false world tree. It’s impossible with my abilities. “Even if it were possible, she would just be a doll with no sense of self.”
“this…!”
Kalphael continued to exin Crassus’s journey.
But why?
Kalfael’s face, which had initially looked embarrassed, appeared yful again.
Like the facial expression a child makes when discovering something interesting.
Kalfael looked at Dio with eyes full of expectation.
‘This bastard… really?’
It suddenly urred to Dio that Kalphael might have intentionally created this situation.
But I don’t have time to think deeply about this.
Kugwagwagwagwa!
The energy emanating from ine’s body was no longer like an invisible wind.
As dark blue light, which looked like polluted mana, began to rush around ine, who rejected the truth, cracks appeared in the ground.
h h h-
“in!”
Crassus tried to approach ine because she was caught in the copsing earth, but his strong energy prevented him from taking a single step.
“Is this dangerous?”
Calliope, who was unfolding her shield, also shed cold sweat and raised both arms.
ine’s rampage is difficult for even her to stop.
“in’s heart is protecting the polluted World Tree. “If we don’t address this, her spirit will be destroyed in an instant.”
Kalfael continued speaking to Dio while injecting mana into Calliope’s shield, which blocks ine’s energy.
“You can do it, can’t you? “If you have received the sun’s protection, you can lift the ‘curse’ of the polluted World Tree.”
Kalphael looks at Dio with a grin.
Dio realized what Kalphael was talking about.
What Kalfael said earlier was not that Dio was the only person who could understand ine.
A person who can make ine escape from the polluted World Tree.
Kalfael said that the only person who could solve this situation was someone who had the blessing of Sri.
Understanding this, Dio’s thoughts began to move quickly.
Benefits you can gain if you ept Kalphael’s request.
That’s not all.
ine’s life…the fact that he was the only one who could save her touched Dio’s heart.
‘Kalfael. Looks like you know quite a lot…good. ‘I’ll do it for you.’
Dio took a step towards ine, who was caught up in the fluctuating dark blue mana.
There was someone holding Dio’s hand.
“D.I.O.”
Sepia called out Dio’s name with concern.
Dio smiled as if it was okay and reassured her.
“are you okay. It will be fine…just like it was then.”
It was like speaking to myself.
After making his decision, Dio slowly began to step outside Calliope’s shield. It felt like his skin was going to fall off from the
fluctuating
mana, but Dio didn’t care.
As Kalphael intended, he was the only one who could solve ine’s problem now.
It’s ine’s runaway that the three seven stars can’t do anything about.
This is because the ‘World Tree’ existed at the center of ine’s runaway.
Although it is contaminated and its main body was destroyed by Crassus, the world tree’s mana is still contained in ine’s body.
Although Dio has not experienced mana during the World Tree’s heyday, he has heard of how strong its power is.
Even beings called dragons, who are called masters of magic, can’t do anything about the elves under the protection of the World Tree.
Looking at this, the World Tree can at least be seen as an entity that possesses more mana than a dragon.
In a way, it is natural that Calliope or Kalphael cannot solve this problem.
However, even though Dio is of a lower level than them, he has the power to solve this problem.
It was Dio who had already broken the unbreakable curse.
It’s still the same now as it was then.
Dio had a way to break the unbreakable curse.
[Oath of Liberation Lv2 was used.]
[The target was designated as ]
* * *
Little ine was sobbing alone in the dark.
The World Tree burned down, and my beloved brother betrayed his people.
Now there was nothing left for ine.
[Take revenge.]
A voice whispers to ine, who remains alone.
ine thought that this voice was what the World Tree was saying.
Even though I know that the World Tree is a being that will not say scary words like revenge.
ine’s hatred from the word revenge is what allowed her to live.
Because the World Tree is a being that speaks only for me.
But….
The World Tree told her to harbor hatred towards Crassus, but ine didn’t want to do that.
Even though Crassus betrayed everyone, she did not want to harbor hatred towards him as her older brother.
[Take revenge.]
The more ine did, the stronger the voice of the World Tree rang in her head.
In order to shake off this crazy sound, ine had to harbor hatred.
The moment she harbored hatred, young ine’s mind became crystal clear.
It was then.
“ine.”
Someone clearly called ine’s name in the empty, lonely ce.
At this, ine’s spirit returned in an instant.
Even though the hatred was not resolved.
ine looked up at the being who appeared in front of her and called her name.
She wondered if he was her older brother, but unfortunately, he was not the person ine loved so much.
Above all, the person who appeared before my eyes was not an elf, but a human.
A human with ominous ck hair.
“Isn’t the target of revenge wrong?”
What is this ck-haired human talking about?
“There is no need to listen to the polluted World Tree. Crassus did not abandon you. “I didn’t betray the elves.”
ine’s eyes opened wide at the human’s words.
Are the author’s words true?
So does that mean there is no need to harbor hatred towards your brother?
[Lie.]
The World Tree whispered.
The World Tree’s words were filled with sweetness, as if tempting a child with candy.
It was no longer little ine who was sobbing.
She thought about the days gone by.
Hatred and distrust were her life.
This all had to be true.
If everything you believed to be true was a lie…!
[Because I have no reason to live.]
ine, who hadpletely assimted into the polluted world tree, opened her mouth to humans.
As the World Tree wished, ine was confident that she would not change her mind no matter what the other person said.
Who can understand themselves?
However, it was not the same amount offorting from the ck-haired human’s mouth.
“Who wants revenge?”
[What?]
ine wasn’t the only one taken aback by the human’s words.
Even the World Tree was taken aback by what a human said.
“ine. “If you ept the truth, you won’t have to harbor hatred towards Crassus.”
The ck-haired human… As Dio approached, ine hesitated.
It was because the words prated his heart.
Hatred towards Crassus.
Among these, ‘hatred’ is not that important to her.
All that matters is that the target of the hatred is the person most dear to ine.
“The hatred you should harbor is not Crassus. Lunaji polluted the world tree.”
Dio’s words were not like those of a saint telling him not to seek revenge.
Revenge is the driving force of life.
However, the exact path was provided to reveal the target to the person who had deceived ine.
[Bullshit!]
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!
At Dio’s words, a burning world tree appeared behind ine.
The cry of the hotly burning World Tree.
[It’s all a lie!]
“Are you afraid to know the truth? Then take my hand.”
Dio, ignoring the burning World Tree, offered his hand to ine.
“In return for servitude…the revenge I so desire.”
ine looked.
The truth seen beyond Dio.
“I will make it happen.”
