Solo Eating to Overpowered

Episode 170:

The first battle on the Severed Continent!

X, who lightly relaxed his body, checked the items he had acquired.

Aractasis certainly seemed to be the best among the Imoogi. X touched his chin with a strange expression.

“Unique rare rare.”

Heart, scales and leather.

Although the type was the same, it was one level lower than the legendary unique unique item grade that Aractasis spit out.

I wondered if I could create an item by combining items of different grades.

‘Anyway, I’ll have to hand over the request as soon as I get back.’

New equipment!

Thanks to the rapid increase in level, the situation has come to take off the dark iron set sooner than expected. As I organized my thoughts, another item passed through my mind.

sparkle! X’s eyes lit up.

‘There was a quest item!’

An item that starts a quest when you reach a specific area.

There were two quest items that X acquired through the Bloody Voyage.

‘Someone’s Hammer’ found in Levitaskar’s stomach and the ‘Staff of Life’ dropped by Aractasis.

Soon, spirits flocked to X’s side.

The spirits clearly looked surprised.

“Did I really defeat the Imoogi? “In such a short period of time?!”

“It’s so different from the human legends I heard from adults. “Are you really human?”

“…Thank you X!”

Of course, it was Killua who welcomed X the most enthusiastically.

Fly! Killua flew in and clung to X’s cheek. Why is he acting so creepy all of a sudden?

Even for a moment, X got cold and started rolling! A notification rang.

[You have succeeded in the quest!]

Shararalala.

Pollen fluttering over X’s head!

It was pollen created by the magic of spirits. As playful as it was, the spirits’ celebration was a bit excessive.

Among them, Killua, who was in a relationship with X, had no intention of leaving him.

“It’s a bit burdensome, so can I leave for a moment?”

“Unfortunately, we will continue to stick together, but what should we do now?”

“…Hey, is this even a joke?”

The mood swings of the spirits were incomprehensible to the party.

Killua hovered around X no matter what X said.

The sky was still halfway between day and night, but it was time to head back.

“I said take the right side at the fork in the road.”

Slurp.

As Denise said, we walked forward and heard the sound of running water. Before long, a stream with a soft glow came into view.

Flap! Yongyong, who was splashing with Denis in the stream, spotted X and immediately flew over.

“Kyuuuu!”

“Looking at how big your stomach is, what do you think you ate too much?”

“Kyuututut.”

Snacks eaten secretly are delicious.

Yongyong, who was proudly showing off his swollen belly, looked towards Killua.

Killua looked at Yongyong and held his breath. Even if it was a spirit from a disconnected continent, it didn’t mean it wasn’t afraid of dragons.

“Kyuu?”

Of course, unlike his owner, Yongyong, who was highly friendly, had no reason to show hostility toward the spirits.

It was only the first time they made eye contact, but Killua and Yongyong seemed to have something in common.

“Hehe, I think we can be friends in the future.”

“Kyuu kyuu.”

“What do you keep whispering about?”

Just as X was about to interrupt Killua and Yongyong’s friendship, Denise opened her mouth.

Denise looked quite surprised.

“Kirua, how did this happen?”

“Denise, I should have told you a long time ago…”

Somehow, Killua felt more comfortable with Denis, who was gentle and understanding.

Denise breathed a sigh of relief when Killua told her the truth about what had happened.

“If such an accident had occurred, you would have told your father a long time ago.”

“Honestly, it’s scary.”

“I admit that, too. By the way, you have grown significantly since I met you in the forest of Ex-Nim Patran. Did you drink some kind of elixir? “I never thought you could subdue the Imoogi by yourself!”

It’s not polite to be too happy about a compliment. Hehehe.

But the corners of X’s mouth went up. Isn’t that inevitable?

Denis was the being whom even Great Sage Sioras referred to as ‘him’. It was natural to feel good since I was recognized by high-ranking people in Fate.

Denise continued.

“I was surprised when I saw the benefactor’s string, but that’s also what happened.”

Benefactor’s string.

Denise could see a string between Ex and Killua. That was why I was surprised as soon as I saw Killua.

X asked out of curiosity.

“But is there any special meaning to being a benefactor among the spirits?”

“Oh, I guess you don’t know.”

“You don’t notice. “Let me explain.”

The corner of X’s mouth, as he was listening to Killua’s continued words, began to twitch again.

I will make Xernis a multi-ethnic, multi-cultural powerhouse! According to the explanation, it was one step closer to that ambitious goal.

‘You can summon Killua as needed.’

Words weren’t the only benefactor’s bond!

Becoming a benefactor meant that you had to repay the favor you received.

From now on, Killua had no choice but to respond to X’s call. Killua added.

“However, if either party runs out of mana, the summon is cancelled.”

Regarding this, the newly created skills were more detailed.

Contract with the Spirit (Master): Summons the spirit connected by the benefactor’s string. The spirit will do its best to help its benefactor. While the summoning lasts, mana is consumed for both the user and the spirit. (Mana consumption: 50 points per second)

‘Isn’t this completely infinite power?!’

X possesses a mana barrel approaching 300,000 and the blessing of a runestone that increases its regenerative power by three times! For X, the mana consumption of 50 points per second was a negligible figure.

From magic that causes status abnormalities to magic that heals beyond the basics. The usefulness of the spirit went without saying. X, who had confirmed the abilities of the spirits through a bet, was also aware of this fact.

X said sincerely.

“Please continue to take care of me, Killua.”

Let’s work hard together!

“Yes.”

That’s what he meant, but Killua’s cheeks started to turn red.

It must have been sticky from before, but now even my cheeks are turning red. Did you really pick up and eat a poisonous mushroom somewhere that made you lose your mind?

At that time, X was worried about the physical condition of the new slave.

Denise let out a small laugh.

“At times like this, Killua is a heavenly woman.”

*

Yes.

Killua was a woman.

‘Both women and men, the spirits all look similar.’

It’s not that I don’t have any sense.

X thought Killua was a pretty boy because of his hair being too short to be considered a woman.

Of course, nothing changed. Everyone is equal in front of great materials! To X, who has no blood or tears, a slave is just a slave!

“It would be better to learn basic tactics from Yongyong.”

“Kyunut!”

“I will study hard, Senpai.”

Slave No. 1 Yongyong has already been training new recruits for a while.

Of course, Slave No. 0 X was diligently building a bonfire. For the stats! He was a perfect slave to material things, not resting even for a moment.

Denise suddenly turned her head to look at the bushes and said.

“Father has returned to the forest.”

Father Launis left the forest to look at the World Tree!

He is back. X had a lot of questions about the disconnected continent, and Launis was the person who could solve those questions.

Grumpy, X wiped the teacup.

“How should I prepare some tea to drink?”

“lol. No, there’s no need to do that.”

“is it so? “Then I will wait patiently.”

Soon, Launis appeared.

X swallowed his admiration inwardly.

‘Oh oh.’

Unlike Denis, who had green hair like the spirits, Launis’ hair was brown and looked like fallen leaves.

The upper body of an adult male with muscular body. The four well-proportioned legs of the lower body were impressive.

“I’ve heard a lot about you, X.”

Moreover, the voice seems to have a sense of reverence.

Nodding X quickly lowered his head.

“Nice to meet you, my name is X!”

I felt a quiet charisma from Launis. I thought I knew why Killua said she was scared of him.

Of course, X, like the person with the iron face, continued to speak in a friendly manner.

“I don’t know if you know. Actually, I first heard the story from my teacher, Sioras. It’s not detailed, but I heard you’re working very hard for the world…”

Then Launis smiled.

“Are you saying that you are X, the best disciple that Siolas is so proud of? There is no coincidence like this. “Then I was worrying for nothing.”

Launis is called the master of the forest!

He was carrying on the clan’s mission of managing the World Tree.

The safety of the disconnected continent is the safety of the world tree. Thanks to this, I put a lot of thought into inviting X, who is both an outsider and a human.

“But if you are a disciple of Sioras, there is no need to worry. Besides, I have heard about your activities. “I heard that they go to great lengths to fight off other beings.”

Appropriate to his position, Launis seemed to know about other beings as well. While continuing to take care of various matters, X got to the point.

“But Mr. Launis, I have a question.”

“Please feel free to ask.”

“What exactly is the disconnected continent? Even though it is much larger than the Arva continent I was on, it is hiding itself from the world. “I’m curious about the story behind it.”

“Yes, I can’t help but be curious.”

Launis let out a bitter smile.

Then, the history of the past slowly began to unfold.

X, who was listening quietly, was able to understand what Denise said.

‘Past history will definitely be ignored by these people.’

Back when the ancient kingdom existed, the disconnected continent did not disappear from the world!

There was even a land where the Arba Continent and the Danseong Continent were in contact.

‘But when another being appears in the world…’

The world tree that supports the world.

It is said that Launis’ ancestors, who were tasked with protecting the World Tree, made a decision.

No matter how powerful you are, you cannot defeat other beings. You must give up the Arba Continent and run away from them.

Launis said sadly.

“In the past, we sacrificed the humans of the Arba Continent as living sacrifices. “They turned away from humans and ran away under the pretext of protecting the World Tree.”

Launis’ ancestors used the power of the World Tree to split the earth and lift it to move continents.

As if that wasn’t enough, he put on a protective shield that blocked everything and chose to cut himself off from the Fate World.

X, convinced, nodded.

‘Now I understand the name ‘Severe Continent.’

On the contrary, past misjudgments were not understood.

You give up and run away without even trying.

Meanwhile, the hint was slowly coming. The whereabouts of Fate’s main story, which is intertwined with other beings!

Is it because of guilt?

X looked at Launis, who couldn’t raise his head.

‘In the end, everyone has to join forces.’

Those who exist on the Arba Continent are the basics, and all those who exist on the Severed Continent and the East Continent must be united.

X let out a laugh.

‘It’s something that couldn’t be done even when the continents were connected.’

Now, after eons, the world must be united again to face other beings.

Suddenly, the Gourmet King’s Quest came to mind.

A quest to uncover the truth about the Gourmet King and gather the colleagues of past Gourmet Kings to reclaim the throne of the Kingdom of Arba.

It reminded me of my days as a young chick when I was astonished by the incredible level of difficulty.

X smiled and muttered.

“There was a really crazy level of difficulty.”

Munchkin that I eat all by myself
