My Inventory is Abnormal - Chapter 13

The 5th floor of the Infinite Tower.

There was a very large number of players stuck here on the 5th floor.

The difficulty level of the 5th floor climbing trial.

That was the problem.

Perhaps that’s why the five meters tall stone statue was crowded with people.

“We’re looking for a reliable tanker!”

“I’m looking for a fire wizard with a strong firepower.”

“I’m recruiting healers.”

Players shouting for party members.

Even though it was late in the evening, there was no place to walk.

Yujun, caught between the players, was lost in reminiscence.

He has now quickly broken through the 3rd and 4th floors and reached the 5th floor in less than a day.

‘It reminds me of War of Gods. The 5th floor was a great raid boss.’

Boss monsters were not easy for players below 100 level to defeat.

‘It’s hard to attack because it doesn’t have any weakness.’

Yujun looked around.

‘I’m going to have to find a party too.’

The boss in the 5th floor trial will certainly be hard to defeat by himself.

No matter how prepared Yujun was.

Paranette’s ability is far better than expected.

But its cowardly personality was the problem.

If it sees the boss on the 5th floor, he was sure it’d be scared again.

‘Especially…the boss on the 5th floor is big…I don’t need to gamble my life.’

It’s best to join a party.

The problem was that there was no one else to trust and have his back.

‘It’s a risk I have to take.’

There are many people recruiting party members.

But they’re all just looking for wizards or healers.

No one wanted a warrior with a sword in his hand.

Although the tankers were in high demand, Yujun is not a tanker even though he stands in the frontline.

‘In the first place, I won’t play the role of a tanker in a party of strangers.’

He doesn’t know what’ll happen once he has his back turned.

The role of a life threatened tanker was such.

‘Oh. Wait a minute.’

A good idea occurred to him.

Paranette could play the role of a tanker.

‘It doesn’t matter if an undead dies, and I could give it equipment to raise its defense up to level 100…it can tank’

Yujun, who made the decision, listened to the players around him.

“Stop pushing!”

“I was here first!”

“Precious tankers! If you come, we’ll treat you like a nobleman!”

“Tanker, please! Come join! We also support items!”

There were many parties recruiting tankers.

Tanker is a job where no one wants to do it and there’s a high risk of death.

Naturally, tankers were precious.

Healers and the wizard were half as valued.

‘It’s not like the game.’

Healers were much more precious than tankers back then.

‘Okay.’

He has Paranette, so the tanker role is already secured.

Yujun found two parties.

Both were recruiting tankers, and there were two and three players, respectively.

‘Since the party limit is 4 and both had room, It doesn’t matter.’

Summoners are not included in the number of parties.

Therefore, summoners were evaluated for their excellent utilization.

Yujun first approached the place where three players were gathered.

A slender man opened his mouth.

“Tanker?”

“Similar.”

“Similar? What does that mean?”

“Look for yourself.”

Yujun was going to summon Paranette.

He held a magic wand which glowed blue right in front of him.

Then a figure began to settle on top of the magic circle.

The dim figure soon took the shape of Paranette.

The three players were surprised to see the sudden appearance of an undead skeleton.

“Undead?”

“It’s too big for a skeleton?”

“What’s that skeleton? Summon level?”

A short woman asked and Yujun nodded.

“That’s right, it’s my summoned monster.”

“Undead summoner?”

“Why?”

“It’s not that, but…It’s kind of amazing since an undead summoner is rare.”

Yujun smiled.

“It would make a nice tanker, right?””

“What’s the level of your summon?”

“Level 70.”

He said it without skipping a beat.

In reality, it is over 100.

“What? 70? Your summon level is that high?”

The woman’s eyes widened when she heard Yujun.

Then she looked at Paranette, who was standing still.

“What’s his level?”

“Level 63.”

Levels can’t be hidden if they are in a party.

It spoke the level of the summoner frankly, as opposed to lying.

“…The level of the summon is higher?”

“Something happened. I was lucky.”

“…”

“…”

The bewildered eyes of players.

The man, who appeared to be the party leader, gave a troubled look.

“Um…”

“What are you thinking about? If we have a summoner, we have 5 players. No matter what he should join.”

A party member quickly said.

The party leader, nevertheless, remained expressionless.

“But the body is too small to be a tanker.”

“Don’t worry. My summon is undead. In spite of most attacks, it doesn’t feel pain.”

“Really? Hmm.”

The party leader, who had been agonizing for a long time, finally agreed.

“Let’s go together. If you don’t think we can, we can run through the exit.”

“Yes.”

I succeeded in joining the party.

Yujun first excused himself from the party members to prepare, then moved to a nearby grassland.

“Are you afraid to act as a tanker?”

Then Paranette whispered.

“Yes.”

“…”

“What’s wrong with your expression?”

“Are you forcing me?”

Asked Paranette again.

“That’s right.”

“You know, I’m scared…”

“I’ll give you good items. You have a higher level. With level 100 equipment, you’re almost invincible on these and other floors.”

“I-is that so!”

After a long time, Paranette’s voice grew louder.

Yujun took out some level 100 equipment from his inventory.

“You. What kind of weapon are you most proficient in?”

“As you’ve seen, it’s a sword.”

“Didn’t look like it.”

“…Haha. I’m the most proficient with it.”

“Wait.”

In his inventory, swords were the most common weapons he had..

Because he used swords.

“A level 100 Legendary grade weapon and hero grade defenses…that should be enough and more.”

Yujun handed over the items with a solemn expression.

Paranette also bowed and whispered.

“Thank you.”

In fact, it was too much for a summoner to use.

However, these items were overflowing in his inventory.

There’s no need to save at all.

‘When I reach level 100, I’ll wear something better.’

Clack! Clack!

Wearing all the high level equipment, Paranette looked as good as a Death Knight.

“Wah…! This is me!”

Paranette was overjoyed.

Yujun took a stone to where the party member was.

“Are you ready?”

Yujun turned his head to the party leader’s words.

“Let me introduce myself first. I’m Kim Hyunsoo. For now, I’m playing the role of the party leader. I usually use magic skills.”

Kim Hyunsoo was a man with a slender body.

He looked like a wizard, wearing a long robe and holding an old wooden cane.

“I’m Ji Suyeon. I have two healing skills.”

Ji Suyeon was a short woman who spoke to Yujun earlier.

“My name is Park Hyunwoo. I use bows.”

Park Hyunwoo was a very taciturn man.

So far, he has been quiet enough to say nothing.

He only said that and shut his mouth tight.

Only then did Yujun open his mouth.

“I’m Shin Yujun. I use swords.”

“Huh? Weren’t you a long distance summoner?”

“What? No.”

“So… you can summon, but you’re using a sword?”

“Yes.”

“That’s great.”

War of Gods did not classify jobs separately.

Because the role depends on what skills and items you have.

That’s why they didn’t question Yujun too much.

Ji Suyeon shook her head.

“Since we’re done with the introduction and we know each other’s levels, shall we start?”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Party leader Kim Hyunsoo laid his hands on the  5th floor’s statue.

The party members’ bodies disappeared one by one.

Lastly, it was Yujun.

Pa!

When he opened his eyes again, a completely different landscape unfolded.

The 5th floor was very monotonous.

A large space surrounded by dark gray walls.

It was a place where there was no light leaking in, but it did not feel dark because of the glow light from the ceiling.

And in the middle of the opposite side.

There was a monster of enormous size that looked well over 5 meters.

Troll.

If it’s a normal game, trolls may just be a common monster.

But it was different in War of Gods.

Trolls were monstrous in size and a natural disaster for low level users.

Trolls have several characteristics.

It instantly regenerates wounds that blow up its body’s parts with magic or cut with swords.

Not just that.

It had great strength and agility.

The only weakness is that it is vulnerable to fire.

But even that didn’t work unless it could be killed in one shot because it’ll quickly regenerate.

‘It’s better to kill it with fire magic.’

He scanned the troll.

‘Is the troll’s mechanic the same as in game?’

Yujun was curious about that.

If it’s more agile than before and doesn’t have the same pattern, it might be more difficult to deal with.

“Hoo…A troll as my opponent. Not bad.”

Paranette approached the troll confidently.

He thought it was too confident, but it’s much better than being scared.

The party members looked at the back of Paranette suspiciously.

“Will it be able to play the role of a tanker…”

“It looks like it’s wearing something pretty good.”

“Oh? Yeah. Yujun, do you have a lot of money?”

Yujun nodded at Ji Suyeon’s words.

“My brother is kind of famous…he helped me.”

“Really? Can you tell us who it is?”

“I’m sorry. My brother’s identity can’t be revealed.”

“Then there’s nothing we can do.”

Yujun, who responded calmly with a lie, looked at Paranette.

He too was actually curious.

Will Paranette be able to handle a troll?

The result will soon be known.

“You’d better save your magic as much as you can.”

“Yes, I will. Take your time.”

It was a good judgment.

It would be throwing firepower against a troll in a short period of time, and losing strength.

Yujun also knew that, so he let Paranette take care of the early stages.

Boom!

The troll’s fist struck the ground hard.

A vibration that shook the whole area.

There was great power behind it.

But Paranette was safe.

It was a surprise attack, but it managed to avoid the troll’s attack.

‘Is it because of Survival Instincts and Evasion?’

It was incomparable to before.

Ba-boom! Boom!

The troll’s attack struck the floor several more times.

Paranet easily dodged the troll’s attacks.

The troll’s speed of swinging its fists became very rapid, perhaps because it was angry.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

“Hahaha! Big guy, what can you do even when you’re so big!! You can’t hit the mark!”

Paranette went a step further and provoked the troll.

He doesn’t understand it, but there’s some nuance to such words.

The troll’s face turned red after receiving a rough message.

“Grawr!”
