I Live Alone in the Inventory

Chapter 65

“Are you really saving your life if you tell me about that information?”

Jeongmin looked at the long-haired man and nodded.

“I told you. If you tell me useful information, I will spare you.”

“How can you believe that it will save you?”

Jeongmin looked at the long-haired man with sad eyes and said.

“It’s not my job to believe or not to believe. If you guys don’t spit out information, I just have to go around and find other looters. Then, one day I’ll be able to hear the information I want. It’s annoying, so I’ll give you guys a chance to live and share the information.” I’m trying to get it. Believe it or not. If you’re going to talk nonsense, just shut up and die. I don’t want to waste time.”

At Jeong-min’s sharp words, the long-haired man bit his lip and glared at him.

Soon, as if resigned, he lowered his head and spoke in a low voice.

“A group of three marauders I encountered yesterday. I heard that the leader of them was chasing a woman. They were offered to help them enjoy a woman, but they thought it wasn’t worth it, so I declined. I don’t know if she hasn’t been caught yet.”

“Um… where did you encounter those marauders?”

“There is an elementary school about 5 km west of here. We met there.”

“In which direction were they chasing the woman?”

“It’s the same direction we headed to elementary school from here. Since we came here from the opposite direction, it should be roughly correct.”

Jungmin nodded.

“Okay. And… tell me about those guys who gather marauders.”

“Among the stories I’ve heard coming and going, I’ve heard rumors that ‘Seongshin Station’ is gathering people. I don’t know if that’s the group you mentioned. I don’t know more details than that.”

“Sungshin station? Are you talking about the subway station?”

“Yes.”

Jungmin thought for a moment and then nodded.

“Okay. I think this should be enough.”

As Jung-Min spoke with satisfaction, the bald man’s face became contemplative.

It was because the information of the long-haired man looked more useful to anyone.

As the bald man turned his head furiously to see if there was any other information, Jung-min looked at him and said,

“Don’t worry too much. I’ll save both of you.”

“Are you sure?”

Jeongmin nodded, and the bald man’s face lit up.

“I made a promise, so I have to keep it. Both of them diligently answered questions.”

Jeongmin said and raised his sword.

The bald man looked at him and asked, puzzled.

“But why black…”

squeak

The long-haired man and the bald man’s legs were cut cleanly from the thighs by Jung-min’s sword.

The two men rolled on the ground and screamed.

Jung-min picked up the broken legs and tossed them into the air.

A total of four legs flew so far that they could not be seen, and disappeared from sight.

Jung-min took out a low-grade potion and sprinkled it evenly on the men’s wounds.

Chi profit

There was a sound of something burning and the men’s wounds were healed.

The bald man, who had been screaming at the pain of the lower potion healing his wounds, rolled his eyes and passed out.

The long-haired man screamed and screamed.

“You, you! The promise is different—”

“I’ll save you. I’ll keep my promise. But can’t I just let you live? If I just let you guys live, you’ll keep plundering innocent people, so how can you just leave it alone? Your wounds are completely healed. There’s no way you’ll die from your wounds.” I will. From now on, I will live to atone for the people you killed. It will be difficult to survive for a long time with that body.”

The men’s legs were perfectly healed as they had been severed.

It’s as if the legs weren’t attached in the first place.

The long-haired man looked desperately at his perfectly cured legs.

Jung-min left them alone and walked in the direction Leah had left.

Jung-Min disappeared, leaving only two men struggling with missing legs and four corpses lying on the floor.

Leah, guided by a dove, leads the children to their hiding place.

Leah looked at the environment the children lived in with pity.

‘I’ve lived in a place like this for a long time…’

Eun-jin and Min-joon stayed close to each other without falling away from Leah.

Leah smiled as she saw the children holding each other’s hands and not falling.

“Can I let go of your hand? I want to take out the cookies, but I can’t.”

At Leah’s words, the children let go of Leah’s hand at the same time.

Leah smiled and took out a bag of snacks from her inventory.

“I’m eating until Jung-min comes. It won’t take long. When Jung-min comes back, let’s all go find Yu-ri. Okay?”

The children opened the bag of snacks and nodded.

While eating snacks, the children told Leah various stories.

After hearing the story of how she survived after the [Trial of the Gods] began, Leah’s face was stained with regret.

‘Anyway, that Yuri seems to be a really nice person. A raw man in this tough world. Humans are busy fighting each other, but the world is maintained because there are little by little people like this.”

While Leah was thinking, she felt someone approaching.

The children seemed nervous as well, and the dove ‘Soo’ stood in front of them as if to protect them.

Seeing that, Leah said.

“Don’t worry. It’s that older brother.”

It was Jung-min who came to Leah’s words.

The children let out a sigh of relief, and Leah welcomed Jeongmin.

“You worked hard. Are there any results?”

At Leah’s words, Jungmin nodded and said.

“Yes, it’s not big, but I caught a few small clues. Shall we start right away?”

Leah nodded and took care of the children.

Jeongmin looked at Leah and said.

“It might be a bit too much to take the children with you since there is a high possibility of fighting the looters again. Will it be okay?”

“But I’m a little anxious to leave it here. I think it’d be better to find a safe place to wait and move after taking it.”

Jungmin nodded at Leah’s words.

The children decided to move together with Jung-min’s spatial movement, and ‘Soo’ and Leah decided to follow each other.

As for the children in both arms, Jung-min used space movement.

The goal is to go to the elementary school that the long-haired man said.

Jung-min, who had moved to a tall building, moved toward the school through the rooftops of other nearby buildings.

The children were held in Jung-min’s arms with their eyes closed, probably dizzy.

Jung-min lands on the roof of a shabby five-story building.

Across the street under the building was an elementary school, which was the goal.

Soon after, the sound of Leah landing on the roof floor was heard, and the pigeon ‘Su’ arrived along with Leah.

Jeongmin and Leah made a place on the roof where the children could hide.

After preparing plenty of snacks and blankets to keep them from getting cold, and sitting the children down, Leah said.

“We’ll go around this place and try to find Yuri. Wait here. It can be dangerous, so don’t come down.”

After hearing Leah’s words, Eunjin and Minjun nodded their heads.

Leah also said to Sue, the pigeon next to her.

“Take good care of your master.”

‘Su’ seemed to understand, and nodded.

Jeongmin and Leah moved under the building using teleportation.

Jung-min walked slowly down the street and told Leah the information he had obtained.

After hearing Jung-min’s story, Leah said.

“You handled it neatly. But it’s a bit of a waste not to kill it.”

“Isn’t it worth it?”

Jung-min asked, puzzled, and Leah nodded.

“Yes, you can get gold and stats by killing the Awoken. Did you forget?”

“….. ah!”

Leah looked at Jung-min with surprised eyes and said.

“Did you really forget?”

“Ah.. yes.. this has been changed since the store opened, pk… no, it was changed in the middle so that you can get stats and gold when you catch an awakener. So I forgot about it altogether. I don’t open the status window often… “

“Let’s check the status window. We’ve already fought against the Awakeners of the Celestial Council, and we killed a lot of looters today, so our stats should be pretty high.”

Hearing Leah’s words, Jung-min hurriedly opened the status window.

[Jungmin Choi

Strength: 474 (+50)

Stamina: 489 (+30)

Agility: 453 (+60)

INT:301 [mp:516/584]

Holding Gold: 432327 Gold

Possessed Skills: Gate (lv.8) Teleportation (lv.9) Clairvoyance (lv.5) Eye of Emotion (lv.4) Strike (lv.5) Mana Recovery (P) (lv.5) Perception (P) (lv.3) Dimensional Shield(lv.1) Sword Skill(lv.6) Flame Sword(lv.3) Steel Body(P)(lv.3) Stealth(lv.2)]

Jeongmin’s eyes widened as he stared at the status window.

“S, my stats have gone up by almost…50. Most of all, my gold has gone up by about 400,000. I bought the ‘Skill Enhancement Orb’ and had about 20,000 left…”

Leah smiled as she looked at Jung-min, who stared into the air and was amazed.

“Even the number of Celestials we killed is about tens of people each. The stats don’t jump dramatically, but in the case of gold, they bring all the gold they each have. In fact, the amount of gold they bring is more than the number of people killed. It’s on the small side. It seems that each person doesn’t have that much gold.”

“That’s right…”

Jungmin nodded and closed the status window.

“I think I can see why the looters are eagerly targeting the Awoken. The stats go up well, and most of all, they steal all the gold they own.. Really..”

Seeing Jung-min speak with a bitter smile, Leah also said with a bitter expression.

“That’s right. It’s like a system that urges humans to fight. It’s… vicious.”

A moment of silence passed between the two.

As if trying to lighten the mood, Leah changed the subject and continued talking.

“Is the place called Seongshin Station far from here?”

“It’s a little far from the station, but it won’t take too long if you travel by teleportation.”

“First of all, let’s look for the looters here. We can get more information, such as information about a person named Yuri or about looters in the Holy Shrine.”

After Jeongmin nodded, he asked Leah.

“The ‘training’ skill that Eunjin has. It looks like a great skill, how is it?”

“The skill itself is a very good skill. When you buy it at the store, it’s a golden skill marble.”

“Isn’t that right? Seeing that pigeon called Sue, it can understand people’s speech, and it seems like it would be very useful even if we put aside the combat aspect for now.”

Leah agreed with Jeongmin’s words.

“That’s right. The skill itself is very rare and has many uses. As the owner grows, the stats of the creatures trained also increase, so if you train them well, they can be useful in combat. Golab’s ‘Training’ skill has dozens of , They say you can control hundreds of animals at once. But…”

“But?”

“Hmm.. I only met a person who had the ‘training’ skill once in Elan. But he couldn’t use that ‘training’ skill well either. He rarely used it, so his skill level was low.”

After hearing Leah’s words, Jung-min asked back as if wondering.

“Why? It seems like a skill with a very high possibility.”

“The skill itself is like that, but… it’s because there aren’t enough targets to use that skill.”

“It’s not enough.. Ah! I guess so.”

Jung-min exclaimed as if he understood, and Leah nodded her head as she saw it.

“Yes, the skill ‘Training’ is a useful skill that allows you to train multiple animals to become your subordinates and grow them to do battle or other tasks. However, if there are no animals that can be trained, it is really meaningless. It’s a skill. Jungmin-san, have you ever seen animals since [Trial of the Gods] started?”

“Certainly… there aren’t any. At least there were so many cats out there, but I’ve never seen one.”

“Isn’t that right? It’s an environment where most small animals, no, even large animals living in the wild can’t survive. Because they are the main source of food for monsters. As time passes, the number of them decreases, so the environment where you can use the training skill gradually becomes. It’s not going to work. It’s a skill that has a lot of difficulties to use.”

Jeongmin said with a sad expression.

“It’s a shame. If you develop it properly, it could become a really fraudulent skill…”

“That’s right. It would be incredibly useful if conditions were met.”

Leah stopped talking and walked on in silence, lost in thought for a moment.

Jung-min, who was watching the scene, was also lost in thought as if something had come to mind.

The two walked silently, lost in thought for a while, then suddenly came to their senses and looked at each other.

Jeongmin looked at Leah and said.

“It’s a really useful skill if you use it well.

“Did Jeong-min think that too? I think he thought the same as me. Once-“

Leah stopped talking and looked straight ahead.

Jung-min, who was walking beside Leah and looked at her, looked in the same direction as Leah, perhaps feeling something.

Jeongmin held out his hand to Leah and said.

“Shall we go?”

Leah nodded and held Jung-min’s hand, and Jung-min moved in space while looking at the surrounding buildings.

The two of them climbed the tallest building around.

Looking in the direction where the presence was felt, I saw a D-class gate and the Awakeners attacking that gate.
