Chapter 202: The Second Sub Quest (1)

Chapter 202: The Second Sub Quest (1)

[You have discovered a hidden sub-quest!]

– Overcome the final trial without the help of a summoner

– Reward upon success ▶ Immunity Elixir

[You have completed the sub-quest!]

[The Immunity Elixir has been added to your inventory.]

The party members who received the sub-quest reward were left dumbfounded.

It was an unexpected message.

“Did you get it too, Black Scythe? The subquest reward...”

“I did.”

An unknown potion was given as a reward, but Ryu Min knew its value.

[Immunity Elixir]

– Category: Consumable

– Grade: Legendary

– Effect: Immunity to all attributes for 1 minute

– Usage Restriction: Master grade and above

– Description: A potion that perfectly resists all attribute damage. It tastes bitter when consumed.

There had been an Indomitable Resistance Potion in the Tower of Trials.

‘It was a potion that provided 95% resistance to the three major attributes.’

This item was a superior version, covering a wider range of attributes with 100% resistance.

Though the duration was short.

‘It’s a potion that can be incredibly helpful in emergencies. Especially when facing a strong opponent.’

Even with 95% resistance, if the opponent’s attribute damage was unbearable, you could still die from the remaining 5%.

‘That’s why a potion that provides 100% immunity is much more valuable.’

The Immunity Elixir was not an easy potion to come by.

‘It’s something Victor might be able to craft only if he reaches the max level.’

Even if it wasn’t needed now, having it could prove useful someday.

However, the reason the party members were bewildered wasn’t just because of the reward.

“The quest condition was to overcome the trial without a summoner’s help...”

It was a quest they could not have obtained without following Black Scythe.

“Did you know, Black Scythe? That a sub-quest would appear?”

“I’m not a prophet. How would I know that?”

‘Damn it... what the hell is going on?’

John Delgado stared into the darkness of the corridor in disbelief.

‘Did they really leave? Ignoring my offer?’

Instead of listening to the summoner’s words, Black Scythe had walked into the darkness, taking his party with him.

‘Is that idiot risking his life just for pride?’

He had no idea if they were dead or alive.

Just in case, he tried using his tracking skill, but it was useless.

Other than summoning skills, nothing worked.

‘They must be dead. Yes, they must be.’

John was certain.

They would have been wiped out after a few steps along with their party.

No matter how skilled Black Scythe was, he couldn’t see through the darkness.

‘Idiots. Dying so foolishly because they followed the wrong leader.’

John, assuming they were dead, summoned a creature.

“I need to survive.”

He used the creature to navigate through the darkness.

If one fell into a trap and vanished, he summoned another and continued.

Ten minutes passed this way, using and losing creatures to disarm traps.

‘Looks like there’s light ahead. Almost done.’

Finally reaching the end of the corridor, John smiled as he stepped forward.

At that moment,

“You finally arrived? Took you long enough.”

John’s face froze in horror.

Black Scythe was alive.

“H-How...?”

“How did I survive? By avoiding the traps and crossing over.”

“...”

Not just Black Scythe, but the entire party stood there, looking at him.

Their gazes had changed.

‘Damn it. My image is ruined.’
