My Inventory is Abnormal - Chapter 12
Yujun opened his mouth when he saw the rewards notification.
“It’s possible to summon a dungeon’s boss?”
To have a pet is a massive benefit.
He has cleared numerous hidden dungeons, but few have such rewards.
However,
“I got this one?”
It was too weak compared to its level.
For an undead monster, it was strangely afraid of death.
To be honest, he thought it would only be a hindrance to use it.
Yujun first checked out the newly acquired rare title.
– Hidden Dungeon Attacker (rare): Increase item drop rate by 5%.
“A title I had in the game.”
The effect is still the same.
It wasn’t a kind of title that was hard to get because it was given when you clear a hidden dungeon.
“Well, let’s try summoning…”
Kim Heeyeon came in when he was about to take out Paranette’s Essence from his inventory.
“Are you done?”
“Yes. There’s an exit over there, so we can go out that way.”
“Can I…add you to my Messenger?”
“Oh, sure.”
Messenger.
The messenger system that existed in the game also existed in reality.
Messenger acts like a mobile phone in the Infinite Tower where there were no electronics.
After adding each other’s Messenger, Yujun and Kim Heeyeon left the dungeon through the portal.
They then moved to the Infinity Tower’s residential area.
It wasn’t until she arrived at her residence that Kim Heeyeon smiled reassuringly.
“Thank you very much! Seriously, if it weren’t for Yujun…”
“What?”
“Anytime you need my help, please open the Messenger! I can’t be useful, but…”
“I’ll be in touch soon.”
“Yes!”
Yujun, who was left alone, moved to an inn he reserved in advance with a fluttering heart.
When he came up to his room, he first opened his inventory.
Paranette’s Essence and Life Vessel.
Why does an incomplete Death Knight have a Life Vessel when it should be in the hands of a Lich.
He doesn’t know why, but it allowed him to use a hidden dungeon’s boss monster as a pet.
‘Okay. Let’s continue.’
The Life Vessel, larger than a regular kettle.
He put Paranette’s Essence inside.
Paranette’s Essence slowly spread.
Then bubbles began to form inside the Life Vessel.
It was when the bubble continued to form and filled the Life Vessel.
A holographic window appeared.
[Incomplete Death Knight Paranette has become a pet!]
[Growth type pet!]
[A great achievement!]
[Acquired hero title ‘Honored Summoner.’]
[You can check your pets’ status window!]
‘What?’
The reason he was surprised is not because he was given a title.
It was because Paranette was a growth type pet.
There are many kinds of pets, but growth pets are hard to get.
‘Crazy.’
Yujn, who unexpectedly got a growth pet, smiled.
‘An undead monster and growth type.’
This was great luck.
‘I wonder why it was so weak.’
There must be a reason why Paranette became an incomplete Death Knight.
It was so weak that he didn’t even want to use it as a pet, but if it’s a growth type, then it’s a different story.
First, he checked the effect of the hero’s title ‘Honored Summoner.’
‘Increase the stats of your pets by 10%…That’s pretty good? Wait, I have no time for this.’
Yujun calmed down and checked the information of his pet, ‘Paranette.’
[Pet: Paranette (Growth Type)]
Level: 68
Trait: Survival Instinct (A), Evasion (C)
Skill: Poison Alchemy (B)
Title: None
Attributes:
[Strength 39] [Agility 58] [Stamina 54] [Magic 62]
[Undistributed Point: 0]
“…Its capability is very vague.”
It’s as if several chimeras could beat it.
It doesn’t look like a boss monster at all.
‘Sometimes this happens. The monsters in a dungeon are higher level than the Boss monster…”
The boss of the dungeon must have done it through alchemy.
Although the level of chimeras are high, the boss was not very strong.
‘I don’t think it’s going to be very helpful right now just looking at its skills or traits.’
Although granted it’s incomplete, these were not the skills of a Death Knight.
There were no swordsmanship skills or traits of one.
However, it’s important to note its growth potential.
Being able to grow like a player.
That alone increases the value of Paranette exponentially.
‘The good thing about a growth pet…It’s not just simply growing stronger.’
The biggest advantage was that there was no time limit for the pet to be summoned.
In short, he could have it summoned indefinitely.
Yujun decided to summon Paranette
The method is simple.
Put your hand on the Life Vessel and think of ‘summon’.
Yujun moved his hand.
The old inn had a flash of pure white.
Swish!
The aftermath of the flashlight disappeared, and a familiar sight appeared in the room.
It had a small frame with thin arms and leg bones.
A death knight with a shabby but unique cape on its back.
It was Paranette.
“W-what? Where am I?”
As soon as Paranette was summoned, it looked around puzzling.
“Do you remember me?”
Paranette shivered at Yujun’s words.
Its eyes turned to Yujun.
“How can you be here?”
“Think carefully.”
It was then.
Paranette began to tremble as if it had an electric shock.
It was the process of establishing a connection between the pet and its owner.
Paranette’s body, which had been vibrating for a long time, soon calmed down.
“I can’t believe I’m a pet.”
Paranette was in tears.
He don’t know if that’s actually the case because it’s all bones, but Yujun felt that was the case.
“…”
Paranette, who had been quiet for a long time, opened its mouth.
“I’m sorry for my rudeness.”
It suddenly made an apology.
Yujun tilted his head.
“What?”
“I said something in the laboratory as if I were looking down on you.”
“Oh, that?”
“…Yeah.”
“It’s fine.”
It was the enemy at that time anyway.
Yujun didn’t care much either.
“But I have a question.”
“Yes. Please speak.”
“Why were you so afraid of me? I didn’t really do anything.”
Paranette hesitated for a moment before it opened its mouth.
“In fact, I’m a coward.”
“Coward?”
“I’m ashamed to say this as a Death Knight, but…I’m afraid to fight. Besides, you’ve taken care of all my chimeras, haven’t you? So I couldn’t even think about fighting anymore.”
“That’s why you bluffed?”
“…Yeah.”
Yujun laughed.
There was a boss monster like this.
‘An undead Death Knight being scared..’
It’s not going to be able to fight if he even uses it for combat.
Nothing was more ironic than that.
Yujun’s eyes glistened at one point while looking at the awkwardly standing Paranette.
‘Wait… I’m sure I had an item that sped up the growth of a pet.’
Yujun opened his inventory and began searching.
The inventory space was so vast that it took quite a long time to find the item he was looking for.
About a minute later, Yujun pulled out two items from his inventory.
[Pet Level Jump (Event)]
Grade: None
Option: Raises a pet’s level to 100. Can only be used on pets below level 100.
[Blessings of the Dead]
Grade: Legendary
Option: Increase the potential of an undead monster to the maximum.
‘This Pet Level Jump item was obtained by recharging during a certain event period.’
The effect was good as shown in the options.
It was because he could skip the early stages of this most troublesome pet.
‘Even though you’re scared, if you’re high level, it’ll work out.’
‘And the Blessing of the Dead.’
A precious item that couldn’t be obtained even with money.
The reason was that the item itself was Legendary, so it was extremely rare and effective.
And ‘Blessing of the Dead’ could only be used on an undead pet.
An item just right for the growth pet, Paranette.
Paranette shook its shoulders after seeing the ‘Blessing of the Dead’ in Yujun’s hand.
“W-what is that?”
“Why? Is this scary, too? This is just a buff item.”
“It looks ominous. Shaped like a skeleton…it’s like a cursed item.”
“Hey, you’re a skeleton, too.”
“Ah…?
Yujun first handed over the Pet Level Jump item.
“Eat.”
“Is it edible?”
“Would I tell you to do something you can’t do? To my own pet?”
“Oh, I see.”
Paranet gulped down the Pet Level Jump item.
[The level of the pet ‘Paranette’ has increased to 100.]
Paranette felt the change right away.
“Oh! I can feel my power rising!”
“Good.”
Yujun put ‘The Blessing of the Dead’ on Paranette’s skull and rubbed it lightly.
Its head began to glow brightly.
“Uh, what about this?”
Paranette raised its voice.
As if it was looking forward to something.
“Ah…”
Pa!
One more flash came out.
“Finally, I have hair!”
The light that filled the room soon faded.
[The potential of the pet Paranette has increased significantly!]
“Ah…I have fulfilled my lifelong dream.”
“What are you talking about?”
Yujun, who heard Paranette’s nonsense, frowned.
“What?”
Seeing Yujun’s face, Paranette hurriedly raised its arm and touched its head.
“Empty…”
Perhaps the fact that he rubbed its head with the Blessing of the Dead is the reason why Paranette was mistaken.
There was a noticeable change.
It grew taller and had broader shoulders.
Not only that, but also a faint light leaked from the hollow eyes.
And, its head shined again.
Yujun rechecked Paranette’s information, which had changed greatly.
[Pet: Paranette (Growth Type)]
Level: 100
Characteristic: Survival Instinct (S), Evasion (A)
Skill: Poison Alchemy (B), Corpse Explosion (S)
Title: None
Attributes:
[Strength 74] [Agility 92] [Stamina 78] [Magic 71]
[Undistributed Point: 0]
Yujun widened his eyes
‘Truly, Blessing of the Dead is valuable.’
It’s like an undead monster now.
Paranette’s capability was deeply ingrained in my heart.
In addition, its traits and skills have increased.
“But Corpse Explosion…a skill a Death Knight might have.’
Not bad.
No, it was very good.
S-rank skill, Corpse Explosion.
Paranette’s magic level is also high, so he thought it would be useful.
All the preparations are complete.
‘Paranette has become quite useful, so it’s time to go to the next floor.’
Yujun became excited at the thought of climbing the tower.
Then Paranette muttered while looking at the floor.
“My hair…”
“You didn’t have any before either.”
“I was looking forward to it.”
“Maybe in the future.”
“Really?”
“No.”
“…”
