Episode 90 Let’s Trade
Flash cannon? Or laser beam?
A barrage of inexplicable blows poured down.
I felt it intuitively.
If you get hit by that, you’ll definitely die.
Should I dodge by running through the fog?
‘No, the range is too wide.’
It is impossible to completely avoid it.
After the fog lasts for less than a second, you will be swept away by the attack and turned to dust.
I have no choice but to stop it, whether it means killing me or becoming food!
-Quaddudduk!
He focused all his strength and raised his sword.
Please step aside even a little.
The shock was so great that I couldn’t even scream.
I wonder if they adjusted the output somehow.
It’s too strong for something like that.
If you let go of even a little bit of strength, it’s over.
I held on with my arms as close to my body as possible.
The hand holding the sword is trembling.
My fingers felt like they were going to fall off whole, and the battle suit I was wearing was torn apart like paper.
My skin is burning.
Before the blisters can even close, they burst and pus flows out, and even the pus evaporates, tearing the flesh apart.
Pain beyond words.
I could not even open my eyes properly, but I felt it.
‘I can live!’
Just a little longer. Just hold on a little longer and the attack will be over.
I put strength into my trembling legs and held my wrists, which felt like they would break, tightly.
Slowly the end of the flash comes into view.
Soon now.
-Bam!
“Shit!”
The sword that had been at the forefront enduring the impact cracked.
Was it a delusion to think that you could receive it with a C-class weapon?
If this continues, I won’t be able to last even 10 seconds.
Enduring it with your bare body is no different from committing suicide.
Other alternatives are needed.
If possible, it would be good to be able to withstand attacks with divine power, but there’s no way something like that exists…
“there is!”
Frost Flame Sword.
A sacred object imbued with divine power.
In fact, it is a S-class weapon that can be called a holy sword without any problem.
But right now, I don’t have the luxury of reaching into my treasure bag.
“Ouch!”
Deokchun, who read my mind, climbed down my back.
Is this the greatness of the sucker?
Although not fast, he steps forward steadily.
I turned my gaze forward.
Let’s leave taking out the holy relics to Deokchun.
I hope the sword doesn’t break before then.
“You have good tenacity! I guess you have to do that much for my heart to open!”
Then just close the door of your heart. If it opens twice, you’ll be left behind.
I swallowed my curses and concentrated.
The cracks are gradually spreading.
The blades were all blown away, perhaps because they had received a huge amount of energy.
-Kkikkik, kiiiii
I hear a series of disturbing sounds and my body keeps getting pushed back by the shock.
It seemed like there was a confrontation, but it only lasted a moment.
-Crack!
The sword finally broke.
“Ouch!”
“Nice, Deokchun!”
Deokchun, who succeeded in opening the treasure pouch, handed me the Frost Flame Sword.
He dropped what he was holding and grabbed the Frost Flame Sword.
The title of the Relic Plunderer was displayed, and the sword that had broken free from the seal rang loudly.
-Kwaaaaang!
He blew away in one go an attack that was difficult to block.
Pouring divine power.
A shard of light that beautifully decorates the sky.

-Kuduk
I pulled the sword.
It’s still night here.
The buff was effective, and it doesn’t suit my personality to be unilaterally affected like this.
“I have to give him a room.”
The rising divine power.
The fire and ice energy contained in the sword resonated, and when the sword that had been raised was lowered.
-Saaaaah!
An indescribable energy was released.
At this very moment, it is an S-class weapon.
Specs that would make any hunter’s eyes turn.
The specs attached as options are in the hundreds, and as expected of a holy relic, special effects are also attached in abundance.
The power to completely annihilate any monster.
It poured down on the boss on the 19th floor.
“That, that!”
The boss, who opened his mouth and let out a gasp of shock, was engulfed in the rushing energy.
-Keukkeukkeu!
Even the Holy Crab that was nearby was summoned again after its outer armor was shattered, and the optectors also all evaporated due to the influence of the divine power.
Another scene of destruction different from when I wrote Repayment.
The cavity enveloped in light made a loud noise, and the body, which had poured out its divine power to the max, felt a bone-twisting pain.
-Phew!
One blow.
That one time my hand burst.
My arms and legs are shaking and my shoulders feel like they’re going to fall off.
It was that great an attack.
If only I had been a little more disciplined.
What if you had enough divine power and the ability to wield a sword at any time?
Climbing at high speeds may not be an exaggeration.
‘If it’s fast, it’ll be in the mid to late 50s. Usually, you have to get to the 60s to even see S-class equipment.’
I sighed as I looked at the frost flame sword slowly losing its light.
There will be an opportunity later.
This means I can never use the Frost Flame Sword again.
I was wondering if I should have gotten Magnarok’s recognition.
“On the track.”
He’s the guy who killed Deokchun, so he can never bend down and go in.
Let’s go. I’m bored with the 10th floor now.
The 20th floor is waiting for me.
I turned around and headed towards my destination.
Even if it’s a boss on the 19th floor, if it receives an attack like this, it’ll be quiet for a while.
[You have entered the destination.]
[Acknowledged.]
[A portal is created.]
-Wooooooow
After a fun fight, the portal is really welcome.
Okay. That’s the end of the walkthrough.
Would you like to receive a reward from the boss?
I clearly said that if I got recognized, I would get something good.
Surely you’re not saying you won’t give it to me just because I got hit once?
I hope you’re not that kind of person.
I turned my gaze to check his condition.
“wow.”
I flinched for a moment.
In the ruined space, he stood tall.
The shield he was holding in one hand was shattered and disappeared.
Other than that, it’s the same.
There is not a single scratch.
He’s fine, except his armor is a bit scorched and his hair is disheveled.
But his expression was blank.
-Shock
He was staring into space when he looked at me.
There is an emotion that cannot be expressed in the gaze that meets yours.
The pressure that builds up as if it were a joke until now.
There was no murderous intent, but something overwhelming and suffocating me.
‘Are you really angry because I hit you? Are you going into the portal right now?’
Is this what it means for a body to stiffen?
I couldn’t even swallow my saliva.
-Thump, thump, thump
He approaches me slowly.
Even though I’m just walking with my sword on my back, it feels like a mountain is approaching.
The boss is right in front of you.
A person much taller than me looks down at me with a stiff face, and I break out in a cold sweat.
I didn’t notice this before because he was laughing, but when he became serious, his expression became very fierce.
His face turned red, so he must have been really angry.
“Aha, ha. Were you in a lot of pain?”
“Ge, gee!”
Thud. Deokchun hits the back of my head.
Wasn’t it this?
The moment when you want to prepare a more concise and decent comment.
-chin
He grabbed my shoulders.
The eyes sparkle.
I thought my lips were trembling slightly.
“Where did that sword come from! A completed frost flame sword! Where on earth did you get it and how did you get it!”
My head hurts from all the shaking I’ve been doing.
He’s really strong.
Didn’t the attack earlier take any damage?
There is no conscience. But it is still S-class equipment.
Is it because my stats are poor that I can’t deal damage?
“Eughhhhh.”
Deokchun, who was shaking along with him, let out a cry.
“My head hurts. Let me go!”
“The Frost Flame Sword should have already been destroyed! Where did you get it?”
“No. I know, so don’t shake it!”
“Give it to me. Give it to me!”
It won’t work. We can’t communicate.
I need to calm down first.
Phew. Take a deep breath.
“Ah! Calm down!”
-Paaaak!
He hit his chin hard.
Hey. Are you human? Why do my fists hurt?
My palms were already sore from all the bruising, and it feels like my fingers are also ruined.
He is a gentleman as solid as his looks.
It’s annoying that he doesn’t seem to take any damage, but he seems to have come to his senses.
“Oh my. Ahem. I got a little excited. Sorry.”
“Okay, first give me the compensation.”
I held out my hand.
I know he’s strong.
But the frost flame sword is on me.
I also took out the Bloodcurse Dagger, thinking that he might try to take it by force.
If you do something stupid, you should immediately run away to a safe area.
“Oh. That’s a sword with a peculiar curse. The options seem strange though.”
He shrugs, perhaps noticing the dagger’s effect.
“First, I’ll give you a reward. I originally didn’t plan on giving you this much, but since I’m interested in the sword you have, I’ll give you something even better.”
He reached out to me.
The energy of fire is condensed.
You’re not going to blow me away like this, are you?
I was naturally wary of him because he was an unpredictable person, but fortunately that wasn’t the case.
The energy of fire gradually took on a variety of colors and became a pattern.
“Take it. It will help.”
[Qualification Verification]
[A bowl of fire was formed.]
[The seal of fire seeps in.]
By his will, a seal of fire permeated me.
A warm and vibrant sensation spreads throughout my body.
And that’s not all.
“What is this?”
[Effect of the Seal of Fire]
– Increases all abilities related to fire.
-Divine Power +50
– Recognized by the Order of Fire.
The effects are all equally great.
Increased fire related abilities?
Such a wide-ranging buff is hard to find unless it’s a power.
Needless to say, the power of Fire Bomb increases even more.
And it even increases divine power by 50?
This is a ridiculous option.
Both titles combined go up by 80, but this just gives you a 50 increase.
If a hunter related to the clergy saw this, it would be perfect for feeling a sense of relative deprivation.
The last one is a bit surprising.
“Recognition of the Fire Cult?”
“It’s nothing special. I see that he’s using a holy relic. I’m sure he went into the ruins on the 17th floor.”
How did you know?
Do those who belong to the top have some kind of connection?
For something like that, you’re being too kind to me.
I’m not on good terms with Magnarok, I’ve lost.
On the other hand, he is kind to me… … .
“It looks like you haven’t received the approval of Magnarok. I’ll give you half of it, but I’ll give you my approval. You can use the holy relics of the Temple of Fire.”
Oh my god.
There is a function that allows you to use holy relics related to fire.
It was great news for me.
Because it opened up the possibility of reusing relics that were once disposable.
There are six relics I stole in total.
Fortunately, one of them was a relic belonging to the Fire Cult.
I haven’t used it yet though.
Unfortunately, the items I wrote this time are not sacred relics of the Fire Cult, so I can’t reuse them…
“thank you.”
Still, it doesn’t change the fact that I received a great gift.
More than enough to get it on the 19th floor.
I expressed my gratitude.
“Then will you give me that sword?”
As if he thought this was the moment, he pointed to the Frost Flame Sword.
The sword was sealed again.
Since I’ve already used the title of Relic Plunderer, there’s no way to use it again.
It is hard, so it can be used as a spare sword in an emergency.
If you think about it, there’s no longer any merit to me.
There are also items that cannot be activated with just the Fire Seal… … .
Still, something feels missing.
This is my first S-class equipment!
It’s no different from a normal item now, but anyway.
“It’s useless anyway. To break the seal, you need to gain Magnarok’s approval. It seems like it’ll be difficult for you.”
“That’s true, but… … .”
Should I just give it to you?
I also got the seal of fire.
“I won’t just ask for it. I’ll give you what you need.”
It’s refreshing.
If I can trade something I don’t need for something else, I’m fine with it.
“Ahem. Shall we take a look?”
I made a slightly friendly gesture.
He chuckled and pulled something out of thin air.
A bold red helmet.
At first glance, it doesn’t look like anything special.
-Tok tok
He tapped my armor.
“It’s a set of equipment that matches what you’re wearing.”
“yes?”
Could it be that it’s a set with my armor?
[Pelline’s Red Head (C)]
-Set Item (1/7)
-No further information can be read as it is not traded.
It’s true.
The equipment that comes as a set with the yellow body of the Feline I am wearing.
I couldn’t see it in the shop window, and it wasn’t in the safe zone store, so I thought it might come from a quest or ruins.
Who would have thought the boss on the 19th floor had it?
This is your chance. It’s now or never.
I looked at him.
“Let’s make a deal.”
I reached out my hand.
The corners of his mouth go up.
“Very good.”
