Chapter 241: Mithril Holy Ring (Fourth update, bonus for Grandmaster 'Ss Xiaodouzi')

~8 min read 1,445 words

A feeling of emptiness appeared. Inside the blood-colored vortex were the equipment Karl was wearing or items from his storage space. A total of three draws were possible.

Calling it a "draw" was actually just reaching a hand into the blood-colored vortex to fish around.

Having learned from the previous lesson, Su Xiao no longer grabbed items that felt smooth. Bras, shampoo, wrenches—which of those didn't have a smooth texture?

Suddenly, he touched something. This object felt rough on the outside but had a slight elasticity.

A confident smile appeared on the corner of Su Xiao's mouth. He quickly pulled his hand out of the blood-colored vortex, and then his whole person froze.

【Broccoli】 (Ingredient)

In Su Xiao's hand was a head of bright green broccoli. It was indeed rough on the outside and slightly elastic.

The corners of his mouth twitched, his face turned green, and he felt as if he had been poisoned by broccoli.

Silently taking out Xiang Bubu's core and summoning Xiang Bubu, Su Xiao tossed the broccoli to Xiang Bubu.

"Xiang Bubu, destroy it."

Xiang Bubu began to eat it with a *crunch-crunch* sound. A small piece of broccoli fell to the ground, and Xiang Bubu made a move to lower its head to eat it, but its pair of pitch-black eyes were full of disgust—this thing didn't taste good.

However, Xiang Bubu would not disobey Su Xiao's command.

After finishing the broccoli, Xiang Bubu seemed very interested in the blood-colored vortex floating before its eyes, looking at Su Xiao with a questioning gaze.

"It's yours to play with."

Su Xiao sat powerlessly on the sofa, not bothering with the blood-colored vortex.

Xiang Bubu was Su Xiao's biological Teigu. After Su Xiao used the Scarlet Card, Xiang Bubu could also fish items out from it.

Soon, Xiang Bubu fished a sock out of the blood-colored vortex. Xiang Bubu tore the sock to shreds with some annoyance.

Discovering that items could be fished out of the blood-colored vortex, Xiang Bubu poked its head back in again.

Su Xiao leaned on the sofa smoking, not paying attention even when the blood-colored vortex disappeared.

His gaze swept over Xiang Bubu unintentionally, and Su Xiao paused. It seemed Xiang Bubu was holding something shiny in its mouth.

"Xiang Bubu, come here."

Xiang Bubu ran to Su Xiao, and Su Xiao took the item from Xiang Bubu's mouth.

"This is..."

In Su Xiao's hand was a ring with flowing purple light.

Price: 29,000 Paradise Coins

After reading the attributes of the 【Mithril Holy Ring】, Su Xiao was shocked.

"Xiang Bubu, extra meal for you tonight."

Patting Xiang Bubu's head, Su Xiao was in a great mood.

No equipment was opened from the treasure chests, but the Scarlet Card had a surprise.

Taking off the 【Evil Roar】 (Green) ring he was wearing—although he had ten fingers, he could only equip one ring at a time.

Su Xiao equipped the 【Mithril Holy Ring】. The value of this item was unquestionable.

He feared being controlled and then focused-fired the most. Although his anti-control ability wasn't weak, everyone makes mistakes; if he were controlled, he would be dead for sure.

The appearance of the 【Mithril Holy Ring】 gave Su Xiao a margin for error. At the most critical moment, he could use 'Mithril Burn (Active)' to remove all control effects on him. This ring was a life-saving artifact.

As for the 【Evil Roar】 (Green) ring, Su Xiao planned to sell it after returning to Reincarnation Paradise; that would also be a decent income.

Although the three treasure chests only yielded one consumable, they opened up quite a few Paradise Coins, a full 14,000 points, as two consecutive chests were entirely Paradise Coins.

Su Xiao took out the damaged 【Cross Tail】.

The Teigu 【Cross Tail】 had two parts: one was the control mechanism worn on the hand, and the other was the spool. Now only the spool remained, and it was damaged; this Teigu was already scrapped.

Although the threads of 【Cross Tail】 were the body hair of a Super Danger Beast, the internal structure was roughly the same as high-strength alloy wire.

The sharpness, toughness, and strength were all excellent. Su Xiao had his eye on these metal wires.

The spool of 【Cross Tail】 had a metal wire several dozen meters long that was the most special; this metal wire was called the "Boundary Breaking Thread," which was exceptionally sharp and not easily damaged.

The Boundary Breaking Thread was the body hair used by that Super Danger Beast to protect its vital parts. Su Xiao tried using 【Zhan Long Shan】, but even with great effort, he still couldn't completely cut this Boundary Breaking Thread.

The value of this Teigu was actually this Boundary Breaking Thread; it was perfect for setting traps.

Su Xiao took a small spool from his storage space. The spool was small and flat. He carefully wound the Boundary Breaking Thread onto the spool and secured it beneath his left wrist, where his sleeve could conceal it.

The Boundary Breaking Thread was very hard to detect and could block perception; even Su Xiao had almost fallen for it.

This thing could deal with emergencies. Although Su Xiao using this spool to control the Boundary Breaking Thread was nowhere near as flexible as the Teigu 【Cross Tail】, it was fine for setting simple traps during combat. Karl was killed after being bound by him with metal wire; he had learned how to set up metal wire.

Su Xiao got up and walked toward the bedroom; he planned to sleep and then sneak into the Imperial Palace.

Su Xiao left the living room, and Xiang Bubu sat in the living room, becoming a loyal guard.

Five seconds after Su Xiao left, Xiang Bubu tilted its head, its "idiot" attribute fully revealed. Following Xiang Bubu's line of sight, this guy was staring at the sofa in the living room.

Xiang Bubu had developed a strong interest in that sofa.

9:00 PM, Su Xiao's eyes opened in the darkness.

With Xiang Bubu acting as a guard, he slept very soundly; Xiang Bubu was a partner Su Xiao trusted.

But after Su Xiao walked out of the bedroom, he found the living room was a mess. The five-seater sofa that had been in the living room had vanished without a trace. In short, he didn't see a single intact item in the living room.

Xiang Bubu was lying in a pile of cotton batting in the living room, looking satisfied.

"You did this?"

Su Xiao looked at Xiang Bubu with a smile. Xiang Bubu's body shivered, its tail tucked in, and its head hung low.

"Let's go, extra meal for you tonight."

Su Xiao put Xiang Bubu away, left the residence, and arrived at a famous restaurant in the Imperial Capital.

In a private room, Su Xiao ordered food for at least several dozen people. Once the food was served, he closed the door and sealed the doors and windows with the Boundary Breaking Thread.

Releasing Xiang Bubu, Su Xiao took a few plates of food for himself and signaled that the rest belonged to Xiang Bubu.

This made Xiang Bubu extremely happy, and it ate with great joy. From birth until now, this was the first time it had eaten cooked food.

After the meal, Su Xiao put Xiang Bubu away. In the *Akame ga Kill! * world, Xiang Bubu's identity could not be exposed; there wouldn't be such trouble in other derived worlds.

Checking the time, it was 10:00 PM.

Su Xiao walked through the streets of the Imperial Capital. Not long after, he arrived near the Imperial Palace. The Imperial Palace was in chaos, and half an hour later, he successfully snuck into the Imperial Palace.
