Solo Eating to Overpowered Chapter 223

Episode 223

: Brilliant!

Hanging on the coral reef was a necklace so colorful that it was difficult to guess its value, and the wide open giant clam was filled with gold coins and other treasures.

X calmed his pounding heart.

‘Excessive greed leads to anger.’

From appearance to extraordinary equipment.

But this clearly belonged to the Sea King.

Moreover, the kid’s clan that protected the Sea King’s territory has disappeared. X also had a good sense of humor, so he didn’t show his excitement.

“Still, it’s a blessing in disguise. “Did your compatriots succeed in protecting the treasure?”

“…No, I wouldn’t have been able to protect the treasure.”

“huh?”

X couldn’t believe his ears.

As you can see, no matter how I turned my head this way or that, all I could see was a brilliant treasure.

The little boy swam among the treasures.

X’s eyebrows twitched as he followed suit.

“Was there something here?”

I saw a ship decorated with five-colored pearls.

The value of the ship itself seemed to easily exceed tens of thousands of gold, but the door was wide open and the inside was empty.

The kid answered.

“This is the treasure I was talking about. But still…”

The treasure guarded by the little fish’s clan!

It wasn’t the gold or jewel equipment seen in front.

Even if he forgot its identity or value for a moment, X couldn’t help but be shocked.

X’s expression became serious.

‘This was only aimed at that treasure from the beginning.’

After realizing that the treasure was in the box, he defeated the kid’s clan that was in the way and disappeared with only the treasure, leaving the other treasures intact.

Special theft.

It could not be seen as the work of an ordinary thief. At this point, it was natural to be curious.

“Can you tell me what that treasure is?”

“well. I don’t know the details of its abilities or uses, but adults said that in the past, they were able to do many things with that treasure. But right now is not the right time…”

“It’s definitely not an ordinary treasure.”

It’s an item that can do many things.

After listening to the story, it seemed like an object with such power that one had to be cautious about even using it. This concludes the conclusion.

Hot.

X clenched his fist.

“Good. “Let’s go find it right now.”

I don’t know what the treasure is, but I’ll try to find it first!

Relationships with NPCs are always important.

I thought that it was the work of a little fish with a destiny, and that if I could just find the treasure, I might be able to monopolize all the gold and silver treasures here.

That’s because the kid and other family members didn’t seem to have much interest in the rest of the treasures.

“Is that really okay? “I have friends now.”

“friend? Ah, it’s okay. “I’m not going to be gone for a long time, so I’m sure he’ll take care of himself in the meantime.”

“…Thank you, X.”

The kid who didn’t know what was inside the black box seemed touched by X, who willingly extended his hand.

Since we promised cooperation, it was natural to share the information we knew.

“So how did that treasure come about?”

“Hmm, should I say it’s a very beautiful jewel?”

“Hey, what is that? “Be more specific.”

“Let’s see! “It’s smaller, but it looks exactly like that one.”

Where the little boy’s large fin was pointing, there was a huge conch.

Are you referring to the gold coins filled inside the conch? I was mistaken for a moment, but it was correct that he was pointing at Sora.

X smoothed his chin.

“Originally, appearance and ability are not proportional.”

This could be seen just by looking at the traveler’s ugly sword.

X and the kid first searched the inside of the warehouse. It is natural that a battle would have taken place here, so it is possible that an intruder may have left traces during the battle.

‘There’s nothing that stands out?’

I desperately tried to refrain from looking towards the gold and silver treasures and looked everywhere, but I couldn’t find anything.

The sand on the sea was quiet, and the quiet deep sea gave them no clues.

A little boy came, wading through the current.

“I think we’ll have to ask around from the outside.”

As a race that served the Sea King, the king of the sea, the kid had special abilities.

That is, being able to command other sea creatures.

As the little boy spoke, the small fish that had gathered spread out in all directions.

X, who was watching, muttered.

“It’s a different ability from that of mermaids.”

The mermaids I met on Mermaid Island were able to read the thoughts of sea creatures.

Anyway, it was as if the kid had a bloodline that rivaled that of a mermaid.

X asked.

“But what kind of person is the Sea King? “You can tell from the name that it is the king of the sea, but you can’t even see the nose.”

“Hmm, I guess there’s no one in the world who knows right now?”

“huh?”

It was not easy to track down the clues, so I unintentionally lost time. Thanks to this, I was able to hear the story about the Sea King properly, but X couldn’t help but fall into deeper questions.

“Does that mean you are no longer from this world?”

It is said that the era in which the Sea King lived was an extremely long time ago, hundreds or thousands of years ago.

In short, the Sea King was a figure who existed during the ancient kingdom or an equally old era!

‘I guess he was a really great guy.’

Even though he is a figure from the distant past, he still receives the loyalty of those who are alive and breathing in the present.

It was natural to wonder whether it was a fish, a whale, or even a person.

“Oh, there’s no way I knew that.”

But it seems like that’s all the kid knows.

At that moment, sea friends who returned with news gathered from all over.

It was the luminous squid that brought the most important information.

sparkle.

The squid’s footrest glowed.

“Is that true?”

“Why did you find out any information?”

“X I think I found it. “The corpses of my people.”

The kid’s face became serious. Even though his mission was to protect the Sea King’s treasure, X had no choice but to become solemn.

The two quickly crossed the sea.

It wasn’t long before I was able to witness it.

“Is that…?”

The corpse of a huge fish resting in the sea as if it had been stuffed.

The body with purple markings was much larger than the kid. Because I was prepared, there was no great sadness.

But unlike the resolute kid, X couldn’t help but become agitated.

‘…I still have energy.’

The energy of another, foreign being.

When I think about it like that, the thoughts fit together like a puzzle.

The Sea King is a figure from the ancient kingdom. The treasures he left behind must also be items from the ancient kingdom.

How many people in the current Fate World know exactly the treasure’s abilities and location?

There was only one answer to the question.

“Is it you guys this time too?”

Worshiper

: This is also their doing.

On the continent, in the deep sea, and in heaven. There was no guarantee that they wouldn’t reach out.

According to the Luminous Squid, the corpse ran wild alone like crazy and died of its own accord.

“Ask me if I’m covered in ink or something.”

“…They say so. “How did you know that?”

“Is it still better than becoming a creature?”

It was clear that he lost consciousness and died while fighting another entity that was trying to undermine him.

In any case, it was good news for X, who had been unable to find any clues. There must be a clear base somewhere nearby.

Instead of answering, X opened his mouth in a low voice.

“I need to find the rune stone.”

*

Properly crazy adventurer Asus.

The world was fascinated by the sight of him acting up for the first time in a long time.

His madness was still evident when he was selected as a Mage Streamer even though he was not part of a large guild.

Shoot!!

A ship sailing comfortably through the sea.

Screams, not cheers, come from the speakers.

-Asus you crazy!!

-You got more excited because X was away, right?

-Wow. Please kill me…

-Go faster!

Asus sails along comfortably, ignoring the opinions of guild members who are complaining!

Although the absolute number of viewers was lower than that of

Comet Han Cheol-hoon was watching the monitor while talking on the phone.

“Yes. No matter how good you are, it is impossible to go to the East Continent alone. But I don’t think that’s a reason to undervalue this adventure. “How can you drive a boat by yourself?”

An executive of a mid-sized guild who claims that the other party is bad.

He was anxious to recruit Han Cheol-hoon, a former member of the huge guild Shining One.

But I made a mistake.

When the story about X came up, Han Cheol-hoon’s voice became cold.

Since Han Cheol-hoon had once been a mage ranker, he could see how difficult the adventure X showed him was.

Han Cheol-hoon shot back sharply.

“And now I know my abilities well.”

To put it plainly, it is obsolete.

I was already getting annoyed by phone calls that were meant to please me.

Suddenly, Han Cheol-hoon put down his cell phone and focused on the broadcast.

Crazy players who never stop challenging themselves! A happy smile inevitably comes out.

“Are you saying I met really crazy people?”

If X was crazy in a good way, the Asus that appeared on the monitor was truly crazy.

This is because Explorer had a history of supporting the Eating Alone Alliance even before X came to prominence.

“I heard that it was broken by major guilds, including Pajukjise. Now that I see it, the pioneering plan was good. Since you continue to have tightrope walking adventures, do you think your tightrope walking skills have also improved?”

It was playful jealousy.

Because they were going on an adventure that all Fate users around the world were focused on and envious of.

As I watch, a renewed desire to return arises.

“Doesn’t Explorer accept experienced positions?”

Let’s not think too much and cook some ramen. What should I do when I watch an Asus broadcast that isn’t even an X broadcast but makes my stomach hurt when I watch it?

The envy only grew bigger.

In addition, it will be time for Weekly Fate highlights to be released in a little while.

Beep Han Cheol-hoon turned on the TV, changed the channel, and opened the bag of ramen.

“Ramen is, of course, meat tortilla.”

It was Han Cheol-hoon, who had been subtly brainwashed by X without his knowledge.

As soon as the water started boiling, Fate Highlight began.

Three rules for making delicious ramen! That was also X’s subtle way of solving the problem.

“Starve before eating. Okay, I got the first one right.”

Meals are good, but how can a cat just pass by a fishmonger?

As Han Cheol-hoon muttered, his eyes turned to the TV without realizing it. From then on, delicious ramen went all the way.

Han Cheol-hoon could not help but be fascinated by the highlight video, forgetting that the bubbling water was making him nervous.

“I really need to go to Xernis.”

The brilliant city of Xernis!

I thought it was indeed X’s territory. As a Fate player, I have a lot of respect for how they found the land that was hidden in the glacier.

However, it wasn’t long before Han Cheol-hoon’s complexion began to turn white.

The main character of the video that took second place as a highlight was an NPC.

“…Bastard?”

Bastard, the general of Arba!

His heroic story could not have been unknown to any user with even the slightest interest in the worldview.

However, that steel-hard body and beast-like eyes could not be found in the video even after washing my eyes.

Han Cheol-hoon stuttered.

“Bar Bastard is dead?!”

Ssssss.

A black, smoke-like substance engulfs the Bastard.

Bastard was swallowed up by the black substance without a trace.

Han Cheol-hoon was dumbfounded. Bastard’s level would easily exceed 800…

But the question was soon resolved on its own.

In the video that took first place, the black substance that swallowed Bastard appeared once again.

A man on a horse who looked somehow familiar. Black smoke, or rather a black army, appeared behind the man.

“okay. “I said I saw it somewhere. Was it the work of the Black Legion?”

There was no way Han Cheol-hoon did not know about the Black Legion, one of the concerns of the Arba Continent.

So does that mean the Black Legion killed the General of Arba? Is that man running the Black Army? Is that guy on that horse a player or an NPC?

Doubts linger in my head.

But soon the tail-catcher was forcibly cut off.

-Kuddeuddeuk!!

Breaking through the ground with a roar.

Another shadow appears on the screen. A man on a horse spits out the name of another protagonist.

-…X!!

“!”

Munchkin that I eat all by myself
