Episode 92 That Was There
This is what I handed over.
[Holy Crab (AAA)]
-Relics of the Temple of Ice and Fire
– It is sealed because it is not recognized by the religious order.
This is the holy relic used when fighting the boss on the 19th floor.
The highest grade of the remaining relics.
It has already been used once and is now deactivated, but its rank remains unchanged.
If it were her usual personality, she would have accepted it right away and checked it first, but Lilka narrowed her eyes and looked into my thoughts.
“Pelline set?”
“Uh. The breastplate I’m wearing and… … .”
I took the red head out of my inventory.
Even looking at it again, the name is nonsense.
It’s better to call it a pitch.
That’s not important right now.
“This is Feline’s red hair. There are still five more set items.”
This time I found out for sure. The Peline set can be held by NPCs or field bosses.
Lilka is a merchant who deals with NPCs, and since she gains favor with NPCs as a quest reward, her relationships with other NPCs will probably be good.
It will have a lot of information in many ways.
“I’m collecting sets and doing quests with you. If you have any, sell them to me. Isn’t that a pretty good deal?”
If it’s AAA grade, it’s just below S grade.
Even for her who carries around a bunch of S-class items, it is said that she has enough commercial value.
But I’m not qualified to use it anymore.
Of course, you may be able to obtain the Ice Seal later and use it.
The problem is that we don’t know when that will be.
Even if it becomes usable, it consumes a lot of divine power, so it cannot be used twice.
In that case, it would be better to use another sacred item.
“Ugh.”
Lilka crosses her arms.
He gave the holy relic to the troubled girl.
As expected, just looking at it isn’t enough.
If you take a closer look, it might be a bit more interesting.
She frowned and concentrated.
“It’s a sacred relic from the Hialtin ruins. It’s a pretty good item. It’s a bit of a problem that it’s sealed, but if you sell it to someone who’s qualified, it’ll be fine.”
Is it an occupational disease? Lilka is starting to feel emotions.
“It’s in good condition. In fact, it’s a rare item that’s hard to find these days.”
Oh, it was such a great thing.
It’s becoming more and more likely.
I became more certain as I looked into her eyes, which were slowly becoming more greedy.
Hmm. Hmm. Big.
Lilka, who had been looking at things while making strange noises, nodded and looked at me.
The will to possess the holy relic is conveyed here.
Alright. Quick, give me the Pelline set.
“I’ll buy it! But I don’t have a Pele set.”
Oh, there isn’t any.
Then give it to me.
When I reached out to take the holy relic again.
“Okay, stop for a moment! Instead, I know the NPC you have.”
Lilka quickly waved her hand.
Well then, that makes a difference.
By the way, I really thought an NPC would have it.
I have a headache.
Not all NPCs are in the safe zone.
If you look at the community, it is both in the field and in the ruins.
If you look closely, isn’t Magnarok also an NPC?
“I don’t know about the other parts, but I know the one with Pelina’s right arm.”
Following the head on the torso, this time it’s the right arm.
There are all sorts of things.
They scattered them like some kind of treasure hunt.
If I collect all seven, will my wish be granted?
“Okay. Then buy it from him and give it to me.”
I don’t want to bother looking for it myself.
It is human nature to want to go comfortably if possible.
She could definitely do it.
“Hehehe. That’s a bit difficult.”
It won’t work, it’s confiscated after all.
“Ah. Why!”
When he tries to take the relic away again, Lilka hugs it.

Anyone who sees this will misunderstand.
That’s mine, not Lilka’s.
But it would be ungentlemanly for me to take it back by force.
“Deokchun, spit out some acidic saliva.”
“On the track.”
Deokchun steps forward with great spirit.
I’m okay with it since it’s lady-on-lady.
Let’s see how long it can last.
“I can’t help it! He won’t do business with me.”
“Wait a minute, stop.”
He raised his hand to stop Deokchun.
Snap. Deokchun spits on the floor.
“You’re not going to make a deal?”
“I don’t deal with all NPCs. Some are in dangerous areas, and some aren’t on good terms with me.”
Well, just like you can’t be friendly with everyone, NPCs aren’t friendly with everyone either.
If that NPC is between Lilka and Chuckjin, it would be worse than not coming forward.
I nodded, telling him to keep talking.
“It’s not like we fought separately or anything, but he’s just obsessed with his own territory. It seems like he has his own reasons, but he got kicked out without even being able to have a proper conversation.”
Kicked out?
Although Lilka looks easygoing, immature, and somehow angry and annoying, she is still an NPC.
Basically, I guessed that it is a powerful being and acts as a merchant alone… … .
‘This guy must be really strong too?’
I chased that Lilka away.
First of all, I know that it is an incredible entity.
As for the non-military part, you can’t even touch it.
That means you have to use some kind of persuasion or deal… … .
Can I do what even the merchant Lilka couldn’t do?
“Give me all the information about that NPC. Location, personality, name, surroundings, etc.”
“If I tell you, will you give me this?”
Lilka shook the Holy Crab.
-widely!
Deokchun quickly snatched the sacred object.
Nice Deokchun.
As expected, you are a spirit being. You know my heart well.
I rummaged through my treasure bag.
“This is too expensive and I can’t even count it.”
[Ice Silence (A)]
– A sacred relic of the Temple of Ice and Fire.
-Cools the surroundings.
-Turn off all the lights.
– is disabled.
A-class relic.
I’ve already used it once and it has options that I don’t really need.
Regardless of cooling or anything, I had a high level of fire resistance and my main skill was explosion.
It is not something you would use unless it is a special case.
“Wow. A-class.”
“If you want a AAA-grade relic, go get it yourself.”
Tingle. Lilka, who had been glaring at me, gathers up the holy relics one by one.
There’s no choice. It’s impossible for her to get the Feline set anyway.
It’s a better deal to get an A-class relic with information that isn’t really needed.
“Okay, I’m just passing on the information. After that, you’re on your own. I can’t help you.”
“of course.”
Whether it works or not, you have to try.
Even if you die, you have infinite coins, so you have to keep trying.
If you know me, I’ll just give it to you.
“The location is simple. It’s where you have to go anyway.”
“Where should I go?”
I scratched my chin.
“I have to complete my quest! Hehehe. Fighting this time too.”
Oh, that.
[Lilka’s Request – Forced Quest (2)]
-Tears of the Yeti (0/30)
-Crown of the Eye Spirit (0/1)
-You can now complete quests from other NPCs since you have gained their trust.
-Reward: Odelto’s Ring (B), NPCs’ attention.
This damn forced quest.
The more I think about it, the more annoying it becomes.
At least this time, I can do other quests as well.
Lilka continued, not knowing whether she knew how I felt or not.
“If you want to catch the Yeti, you have to go to the 24th floor. That NPC is there.”
24th floor. Not that high of a floor.
My current specs should be enough to clear the way.
At best, it’s a two-star monster.
“The 24th floor is a snowy area, you know? There are a lot of fluffy ones, like the Yeti. It’s all covered in snow, so the path is a bit ambiguous… … .”
I had a feeling that the explanation would be long, so I dragged the wooden box and sat down.
The same goes for Lilka.
I listened to her quietly.
* * *
After about four hours of conversation, we found a hotel.
Since there was also a quest for Lilka, I agreed to stay for about 10 days.
“Ouch! Ouch!”
Deokchun jumping for joy.
As it turns out, the room I contracted was quite nice.
The bed is king-sized, and the lighting is soft, creating a nice atmosphere.
There was a bathtub and a small pool on the terrace.
The problem is that it’s expensive.
“Deokchun, is this okay?”
“On the track.”
I asked, rubbing my cheek.
After hearing an explanation about the NPC from Lilka, I let her touch Deokchun as promised.
Fortunately, he didn’t go wild since it was something he agreed to.
Not lucky for me.
How many times did Lilka slap my cheek while caressing it?
I was always the easy target for him to vent his anger on.
Forget about the past.
“Let’s check.”
I’ve also found an inn. I plan on leisurely looking at the Pelline set.
After coming up from the 19th floor, I didn’t have time to go and check on Lilka right away.
“Inventory.”
I took out my helmet.
“It’s a bright red, really.”
It’s a color you’d see in a superhero comic book.
The color is like this, but the appearance is quite nice.
Because of that dissonance, the style became even more bizarre… … .
-Pfft!
He wore a helmet.
At the same time, a yellow light emanates from the breastplate.
A red light also burst out from the helmet.
I guess it means that the set items met each other.
Well then, let’s take a look at the information.
Everything, even the hidden ones.
[S-class power, the eye that gazes upon the stars is activated.]
Options revealed through authority.
“Wow.”
I couldn’t help but be amazed.
[Pelline’s Yellow Body (E)]
– Defense +3
– Stamina +1
-Set (2/7)
-The seal is slightly broken.
First of all, the specs of the chest armor are trash even if you look at them again.
It’s a virtually non-existent option with an E-grade rating.
And the pitch I got this time.
[Pelline’s Red Head (C)]
-Strength +11
– Agility +7
– Stamina +9
– Defense +18
-Set (2/7)
-Restore some of your original strength.
As expected, it boasted specs that were below the average for C-class equipment.
Are there any other special options?
does not exist.
It just doesn’t exist.
The color is a gorgeous red, but the performance is also poor.
If you look at it up to here, it’s a trash item that you wouldn’t take even if it was given to you.
[Feline Set Effect! (2/7)]
-All stats +10
-Passive skill, Comfort (D) applied.
– Activate self-repair function.
-Completely indestructible.
-The defense of the Pelline set is integrated.
The set effect is crazy.
All stats +10.
Strength, agility, stamina, magic power. In my case, divine power is also included in the stats, so it’s like a total of 50 stats have increased.
It is a similar level of increase to wearing a B-grade item.
Not only that. It also comes with a comfort option. This means you can wear the equipment more comfortably.
Defense integration is also a good effect.
Normally, defense is applied separately for each part, but only for the Pelline set.
“The yellow body has defense 3, the helmet has defense 18. Combined, it’s 21.”
It was the same as saying that both the breastplate and helmet had a defense value of 21.
This alone is great, but what’s really ridiculous is this.
“Completely indestructible and self-repairing.”
This means that durability is virtually infinite.
It’s a scam.
I only collected two of the seven set items.
What if all the sets were collected?
“It seems like a ridiculous effect will be applied.”
It was definitely the right choice to collect the Pelline set.
Hehe. I turned on the community with a laugh.
I plan to take a look at what the members are doing and gather information about the 20th floor.
“Oh, Nyangpun, you made it to the 16th floor?”
[Meow Punch]: Oh, do you guys know about the fire spirit that appears on the 16th floor?
[Licks the crown]: Those f*cking puppies?
[Meow Punch]: Yeah. If you give them a leaf of the immortal plant, they’ll wag their tails, lick their bellies, and make a scene.
[Lick the top of your head]: …? I hit it a few times, so it lies down on its own without tailing you?
[Meow Punch]: No; that’s surrender… … .
[Nimary Bald Head]: Oww! Animal abuser! Get out there and die!
[Lick the crown]: … But that doesn’t mean I can abuse you^^.
[Nimary Baldness]: Oooh! What kind of animal is that spirit! Lick is the best!
[Meow Punch]: Haha …
[Petit Gongdu]: His change of stance is faster than a balding head… …,
[Nimary Bald]: Hey, Gongdu! I’m not bald… Ha. Can’t I change my nickname?
[Meow Punch]: Yeah, I can’t change it haha.
[Jeongsuri licks]: You should have done it right from the beginning. Tsk tsk.
They are spreading information while playing.
The monster that appears on the 16th floor is Pyrog, a naturally occurring fire spirit.
It subtly tells you how to clear the level without fighting them.
It’s not that he’s careless, but I think he’s influenced by me.
“It’s a good change.”
As information becomes available in this way, the survival rate of those who climb the tower will increase.
It’s not just us. As the mood has changed, other people have also started to disclose information.
The problem is that there are some people who occasionally cause trouble and some who post false information and screw people over.
Some of them were even lynched after their identities were revealed.
If you’re going to play with other people’s lives, you should risk your own too. It’s not pitiful.
I watched the members’ conversation while giggling.
[Jeongsuri Lick]: Anyway, come up carefully. I’ll take care of the 20th floor.
[Meow Meow Punch]: Are you going to conquer the 20th floor?
[Nimary hair loss]: Oh, what are you going to do again?
[Jeongsuri Lick]: Accidents are your specialty, and baldness is your specialty.
[Nimary Baldness]: …? I am always serious, careful, and cautious.
[Jeongsuri Lick]: So that’s why you came in second place in the arena^^. You loser, I’ll take first place.
“1st place?”
I tilted my head in puzzlement.
Level the 20th floor. Get 1st place.
What does that mean… … .
“ah.”
That was on the 20th floor.
