Chapter 98

Chapter 98

After seeing the item’s quality, Seol understood why the energy felt unusual.

Seol then read Fire Monkey’s details.

[You have acquired ‘Peerless: Fire Monkey’.]

[You have acquired an item that didn’t exist in the world previously.]

[[Peerless: Fire Monkey]

Quality: Peerless

Recommended Level: 25-35

Defense: 70

Durability: 165/165

Weight: 0.1kg

Magra, the Scorching, was a rebel in the Sulfur Skull Tribe.

When he left the tribe, having once again etched the name of the declining Sulfur Skull Tribe into the world of Pandea, the tribe, in honor of his feats, held a ceremony for Purga.

And on that day, Purga’s insignia was etched into Magra’s cape.

Basic Effect: +20 to All Stats

Bonus Effect: Truth and Lie (Unique), Dizzy Dizzy (Unique), Fire! (Unique). The damage you take from fire attacks is reduced by 90%.]

‘Oh my god...’

+20 to All Stats.

It was extremely rare for equipment to give this many stats unless it was for key slots like chest plates, pants, helmets, and weapons.

‘This might even be better than Space...’

Even though Space’s stat increase was amazing, Fire Monkey was on another level.

- Why the FUCK is a cape giving 70 defense?

- Imagine being a warrior who needs to wear a chest plate to get 70 defense LMFAOO

- ???: Come on... How could a cape give 70 defense? LOL That’s too far hahahaha

- I didn’t think Peerless items could be dropped too... First time learning that...

- Isn’t he the first transferee to get a Peerless item as a drop?Rêađ latest cha/p/ters at novelhall.com

- I’m pretty sure there are a few transferees with Peerless waaaaay over there.

- Yeah, but Snowman has three already ^^. He even gave one of them to his summon ^^.

Not to mention the fact that this item gave 90% fire damage resistance.

Seol calmly checked all of the unique effects the item gave.

First, Truth and Lie made the wearer’s dodge rate 20% if it was lower than 20%. If the wearer’s dodge rate was higher than 20%, it would increase the wearer’s dodge rate by 5%.

‘Since my current dodge rate is below 5%, this is a huge boost.’

It was an incredible effect that allowed a slower class, like a summoner, to deftly dodge even a boss monster’s attack one out of five times.

- Truth... and Lie...

- That’s a shame, though. It would have been much better if he was a rogue or a monk.

- This item wouldn’t be that efficient on them though since their dodge rates are already high.

- Guys, talking about who it would have been better for doesn’t matter LOL! Peerless items are one of one.

- True LOL! It would have been nice on a rogue, too, though. But who cares~ A summoner got it~

- Who does the Peerless item belong to?

- The person who picked it up~

Next was Dizzy Dizzy. It was a passive effect that significantly diminished the wearer's presence, making them appear hazier than others.

‘This is also good. No, this is incredibly good.’

Since the wearer, Seol, would attract less attention, Seol's party would naturally face fewer risks protecting him.

Since all three of Seol’s summons were Legendary-rank, if Seol could just remove their only weakness, getting targeted himself, it would allow his summons to do much more in battle.

‘However... the effects are much weaker against enemies with high Intelligence. Still, it isn’t bad.’

Even though it was less effective against enemies like Magra, it would be extremely effective against enemies with low Intelligence, like demonic beasts.

And luckily, most of the monsters in Pandea were demonic beasts. And as such, Seol could use this effect a lot.

The last effect was called ‘Fire!’

‘This is...’

It was an effect that rolled ‘Execute Dice’ when an enemy’s health reached 10%.

‘This is an incredible effect!’

- An execute? What? An execute?

- Hold on, 10%??? How does a 10% execute make sense?

- Woah, hold on! Even if it is an execute, he still has to roll a dice, no?

- Don’t fuck with me! I bet it lets him execute if he rolls a 4 or higher!

- Quiet! I think it might even be a 3 or higher... Let’s just not talk about this!

- This is insane, LOL Boss Killer Snowman hahaha! You’re crazy!

A 10% execute.

It also obviously affected the damage that Seol’s summons dealt as well, making it an incredible effect.

‘There’s nothing better than this for dealing with boss monsters.’

Unlike normal monsters, boss monsters had enormous HP totals. Magra, who endured attacks from two Legendary-rank summons for an extended period, was also proof of it.

But the skill ‘Fire!’ had a certain chance of removing 10% of a boss monster’s HP entirely on its own.

- The biggest mystery in Yognatun is why Magra fought Snowman without this LOOOOL

- I’m sure he thought he would win hahaha He took it off because he wanted to keep it clean.

- It’s sort of like how you take off your outerwear before you slurp noodles lol

“You asked for the truth, so I told you the truth. It was a miracle that we made it out alive after so many things, so when you tell us that you don’t believe it... it wears down our weary hearts even more.”

Patrick glanced at Kibo’s two missing legs and sighed.

“You can head back. I will report exactly as you've told me to the higher-ups.”

“Thank you, Patrick.”

Kibo pushed the wheels of the chair Hamun hurriedly made for him to leave.

After everyone was finally released from Patrick, they all gathered to plan out their future.

“Do we have to return to Nobira now?”

“I don’t think it’s habitable for people anymore...”

“It would become habitable if we make it habitable, no?”

“That’s true.”

“We’re all people who have nowhere else to go but Nobira. Why don’t we clean up the ruined buildings and rebuild?”

“Yeah! Let’s go back to Nobira!”

As everyone was excited about their new start, Kibo said something to Mira who was standing blankly.

“Mira.”

“Yeah.”

“Are you waiting for him?”

“...Yeah. He’s late, though.”

“He’ll come soon, so don’t worry. He was the only person who was fine in that hell, after all.”

“I’m not worried about him. I just thought it would be better if he came sooner. I plan to return to Nobira with you after taking care of business with him anyway.”

“Haha... and what are you going to do after you return?”

“I don’t know... I wonder what I have left now...”

A shadow was cast over Mira’s face, thinking about her dead party members.

“What do you think about forming your own hunting group now?”

“My own... hunting group?”

"Yeah, something you create on your own, not something I handed down to you. Haha... Well, it's not like I can just give you anything anymore, though.”

“That might not be a bad idea.”

“You’re a wolf now, Mira. You overcame that hell. After everything you’ve been through, uncovering secrets from some ruins will be a breeze for you.”

“Kibo.”

“What is it? Do you need more time to think...”

“No, it’s not that. Let’s talk about it next time.”

“...Ah.”

Kibo and Mira looked at the fortress’s entrance. Someone was confidently walking toward them.

“So he arrived.”

* * *

The first person Seol met after arriving in Gulia was Mira.

She showed up the moment Seol thought he could catch a breath after passing the inspection gate.

“Mira?”

“So you arrived safely, Snow– I mean, Seol. Did everything go well?”

“Yeah, Mael handled it well. Did you make sure not to talk about the hol–”

“We explained it well, so don’t worry. They won’t suspect a thing.”

“That’s good.”

Karen had a pleasant expression on her face after seeing Mira.

“Oh? When did you guys get here?”

“Ah... just now...”

“Have a seat, have a seat! Master’s pretty rude to his guests, huh? Here, take this.”

“Th-thank you...”

- He’s talking to women!

- He’s talking to women...?! He makes me want to throw up.

- Karen’s acting like a host now LMFAO

- Look at how welcoming she is... she’s not a shadow, right?

- Mira and Seol... they’re calling each other by their names... I’m jealous.

- Right? Man, Mira really succeeded in life, calling Snowman by his name like that hahaha

- What????

Seol sat down in a chair opposite Mira.

And then, he asked her a question.

“So why did you come to see me?”

Mira previously told Seol to see her in Gulia.

But even now, Seol had no idea why.

Slide.

She had a mysterious look on her face and placed a ring on the table.

“This is...”

“I want to exchange this for Kibo’s ring.”

She had come to see Seol to reclaim Kibo's symbol, the Wolf's Warning.

“Hm...”

Seol looked at the ring’s stats.
