My Inventory is Abnormal - Chapter 28

A crisis for the dark elves.

Yujun smiled.

Rather, this was an opportunity.

‘My level is 123 now…’

What if he kills the demons at his current level now?

At the moment he was looking at his legendary titles.

The more titles he have, the greater his strength will be.

It was hard to encounter demons on the continent.

Compared to their levels, the demons gave an enormous amount of experience when killed.

It was a great opportunity to meet the demons at this point.

He stopped himself from smiling.

‘This is going well.’

He thought he should gather more information.

It was simply too early to judge the current situation.

Demon race.

It was a race that could never be excluded when talking about the devil’s followers.

Because this race made up most of the followers.

The demon race is tough because they were born with powerful strength, magic, medical knowledge, occult, and battle sense.

‘Better than humans in every way.’

Instead, the downside is that their growth potential lags far behind other races.

However, they are still a powerful race, so they had considerable influences in War of Gods.

‘Such demons are involved in this?’

In fact, most players would find it wise not to meddle in this affair.

The demons are overall strong, and it could be dangerous given his low level.

But even though his level is low, it’s not like he’s powerless.

Rewards as great as the danger awaited him.

Desiring rapid growth, he had no intention of missing this opportunity.

[Stellen: Thank you for your help.]

Said Stellen awkwardly.

Stellen was grateful, but Yujun only took action for his own benefit.

He would not be swayed by anyone.

What the dark elves wanted was not important, only his own choice is.

That was Yujun.

[Shin Yujun: One more question. Have you ever thought about asking for help from the interracial alliance?]
[Stellen: Do you know how many races in the alliance are after our dark elf race?]

“Do you have the seed of Yggdrasil? I need it because… It’s just that the seed of Yggdrasil is a very precious treasure.”

Stellen said something out of the blue.

Yujun knew his intentions at once.

‘Are you acting because you think the demon is watching you?’

Stellen remembered what Yujun had said earlier.

[* Shin Yujun: But once they know you’ve failed…what will the demons do next?]
[Stellen: They won’t kill the queen right away. She’s a hostage. That’s the most powerful card they have.]
[* Shin Yujun: I’m sure it is.]

Yujun grabbed his sword.

And then turned around and looked at May.

“Is that okay?”

“Yes…Yes? What?”

“Even if we don’t kill the dark elves.”

“Oh! I don’t care. I just received a message that my friend Nira is fine now. It’s all thanks to Yujun. So, Yujun, do whatever you want.”

“Okay.”

Of course he knew she’d answer like that.

Yujun, who raised a corner of his mouth, looked at Stellen.

“You’re not going to attack me or the elves anymore, right?”

“Of course. I do want the seed of Yggdrasil, but my tribesmen’ lives are more important.”

“Okay. Then shall we go first?”

“Yes.”

Yujun took May and quickly left.

First, he has to prepare for his fight against the demons.

In any case, he can still talk to Stellen, so he didn’t need to be with him right now.

‘I’ll take May home first.’

After recalling the whole path, Yujun was able to quickly get out of the mine.

When he left the mine, he saw a lot more elves than before.

The elves who saw him came running immediately.

“You’re out!”

“We heard you were attacked by the dark elves?!”

“Are you okay?”

“May!”

Some of them were familiar faces.

It was Yodry, the elder of the Hwaripul tribe.

She came up to Yujun and talked to him as if she had been waiting all this time.

“Are you hurt anywhere?”

“I was lucky.”

“I don’t know how the dark elves got in there. We’ve been guarding it, but… That’s also our responsibility. I’m sorry.”

“No, I think there was another entrance besides here.”

He didn’t tell her everything that had happened inside.

It was a bad idea to let the elves know the truth.

In the case of there being a traitor among the elves.

“Oh, but what the hell happened inside? Why did you come out so late?”

“It took me a while to find my master’s stuff. Eventually, I found it on the way.”

“Oh, I heard one of the children got hurt and you even treated her. Thank you very much.”

“Well, I’m happy it all worked out.”

“It’s good to hear that you achieved your purpose!”

“Yes.”

Yodry gave a look of anticipation.

Yujun, who understood the meaning, smiled bitterly.

He took the Seed of Yggdrasil out of his inventory and handed it to Yodry.

He decided to keep the promise he made earlier.

It’s an item that Yujun has plenty of, but it was different for the elves.

Yodry’s expression suddenly brightened.

“F-finally!”

She made a fuss and accepted the Seed of Yggdrasil.

“Quickly put it in your inventory. Someone might take it.”

At Yujun’s words, Yodry hurriedly put the Seed of Yggdrasil into her inventory.

“Thank you. Thank you very much.”

“I value my master’s things more than the seed.”

“I’m glad to hear that.”

Then suddenly Yodry’s expression turned grim.

“The dark elves have crossed the line. We’ve fought in the past, but it has never come down to killing each other…”

“Well, I’m sure there’s a reason. If not, these few dark elves acted alone.”

“What? Do you know anything?”

“No. I’m just praying that there might be a reason. Because it’s unlikely that they would make an enemy out of the elves just for a seed of Yggdrasil.”

“Um…”

He pretended not to care for the dark elves.

The situation will become troublesome if the elves point their spears and bows at the dark elves and not the demons.

Yodry seemed to have agreed with Yujun.

Since then, after exchanging little meaningful conversations with Yodry, Yujun moved near a tree with no elves.

‘I need items that are effective against the demons.’

He may soon have to fight the demon race.

Although he’s going to meet the demons quicker than he had expected, this strange turn of events is an opportunity for him.

Yujun opened his inventory and looked around the items.

‘This is how you hunt the demons.’

Yujun smiled when he found an item.

[Holy Spirit Cloak]
Restriction: Level 260+
Grade: Legendary
Defense: 2,294
Option: Attacks against dark property enemies will cause an additional 250% damage.

It was a very precious cloak that could not be found in the Infinite Tower now.

The wearing restriction is much higher than his level, but he could wear it right now if he attached a Rainbow Sticker from the Legendary Item Box.

As can be seen from the option, it’s no exaggeration to say that this item was essential when dealing with the demon race.

Because every single demon is dark property.

Yujun, who attached a Rainbow Sticker to the cape, immediately wore the cape containing holy energy.

Then he went back to where the elves were.

‘It looks like there’s a traitor among the elves.’

In any case, the elves caught wind of the open conversation between him and Stellen earlier.

Either there is a spy, or the demons were spying on the elves through their barrier.

Then May found Yujun, and approached him with quick steps.

“Yujun!”

“Yes?”

“Come to our village with us! I’d like to treat you to a delicious meal.”

“Um.”

Now he has to go to battle against the demons who took the dark elf’s queen as hostage.

He didn’t have time for idle chats.

So Yujun politely refused.

“I don’t think I can do it now. I’ve got a matter to take care of. I’ll come and see you when it’s over.”

“Oh, it can’t be helped if there’s work. Are you sure you’ll come later?”

“Of course.”

May went back to the elves with an excited face.

Yujun went to Yodry and said what he had to say.

“Put off fighting the dark elves for now.”

Yodry widened her eyes at his words.

“What does that mean? Do you want us to postpone the fight?”

“I’ll settle it with them.”

“It’s too dangerous. I heard from the children you’re strong, but going there alone…”

“It’s okay. I’m not looking to die either. With me alone, I won’t be afraid of escaping.”

“How? What is it?”

“That’s a secret.”

“…”

Yodry, with signs of uneasiness, asked.

“Are you sure you’ll be okay?”

“I’ll take the risk anyway. I’m not trying to fight the dark elves with my life, so don’t worry too much.”

“…Okay.”

He didn’t think she would still be worried about him.

‘Is it because of the Seed of Yggdrasil?’

After roughly saying goodbye to the elves, Yujun found a suitable spot and opened his messenger window.

Then he sent a message to Stellen, who was anxiously waiting for him.

[* Shin Yujun: Send me one dark elf. I don’t know where it is.]

A reply quickly arrived.

[Stellen: I understand. Where are you now?]

Afterwards, Yujun roughly explained to Stellen the geographical features of his current location and waited for the dark elf.

Soon after, a gentle-looking male dark elf approached him.

“Did Stellen send you?”

“Yes. That’s right.”

“Help me.”

“Yes.”

He was unexpectedly polite.

But Yujun could tell from the looks in the dark elf’s eyes that he looked down on him.

The village of the dark elves was not far from the mine.

Countless dark elves were busily moving.

However, most barely looked at him.

It was natural since they all knew the queen was taken hostage.

‘It would be strange not to know.’

He could see Stellen near the entrance.

Stellen spotted Yujun, but didn’t speak to him.

It’s all about being conscious of the dark elves around him.

Yujun also began to look for traces of the demons.

‘Not only did they know I had the Seed of Yggdrasil, they also knew where I was.’

He was nervous despite his Composure trait.

The level of the demon race is higher than any other races he has dealt with.

Closing his eyes, he spread out his senses.
