Chapter 253,
Chapter 78. Feat of a Reserve Jockey (2)
Sugung!
The mana rays cut on Sigmund split and fragments flew out.
Awkward! The subjects gathered in the plaza reflexively screamed at the sudden attack, and the Paladins of the Golden Shield Society jumped into the podium.
“Protect Lord Rani!”
“Everyone get down! Get swept away!”
The Golden Shield Paladins surrounded Lani and shouted to their subjects. Fortunately, most of the subjects followed the rules well and fell flat on the floor.
But not everyone was like that. There were not a few subjects who were wandering around.
If not, the subjects could get caught up in the attacks of the Ziffle wizards.
The mages attacking Jin had at least 7-star skills. Ordinary people could be seriously injured or killed even if they were only brushed against it.
The wizards continued to chant magic as if they would not care whether they died or were injured.
In fact, even if dozens of unrelated subjects died, they did not intend to stop chanting until Jin’s death.
Ziple no longer had any attachment to the symbol of justice.
However, if I can’t kill Bamal Jin Runkandel right here, I will always be looked down upon.
No, there was a high possibility that it would not end to the extent of looking down on it. Missing Barmal now was like having the entire Zipline at the mercy of the ‘Runkandel Reserve Horseman”s deviation.
It just had to be stopped.
“We must deal with Jin Runkandel before he leaves the plaza!”
“Drive him back to the center!”
Wizards were desperate. It was because they knew very well that if they lost Jin now, their parents would not let them live for any reason.
Jin calmly checked the location of the wizards.
‘Four on the left and six in the middle.’
Once open like that.
That was all in the square. However, including the outside of the square, many times that number of wizards would be aiming for Jin.
‘Six are rather weak.’
I had to get through them and get out of the square first. If they were crowded before the reinforcements began in earnest, they would not be able to escape, and they would never want to experience the death of innocent subjects caught up in battle.
Of course, even before revealing his identity, he kept in mind that his mischievous subjects might get caught up in it.
But this was for the best.
As many neutral media as possible, as many third forces as possible, as many witnesses as possible, and as many ‘helpers’ as possible, it is necessary to reveal your identity so that Zipple can properly drink water.
There was an earnest request from Rani.
The death of innocent subjects is the result of his request, so please reveal your identity in the plaza.
If such a thing happens, all responsibility and sin is his share.
It was not very reluctant to take the damages of the subjects as collateral, but he did not refuse.
It was because he believed in Luna.
‘I wondered what would happen if an innocent subject died or was injured…’
Jin glanced at Luna.
‘That won’t happen. After all, it’s my sister.’
Under Luna’s command, the Runcandel Guardian Knights and Hugh Fester’s soldiers were brandishing their weapons in perfect order.
Surprisingly, every time the magicians’ attacks passed by the subjects, they did not miss a single one.
It is called the condolence delegation, but it is the guardian knights who came to carry out the 1 2 3 flags.
Each of them had skills just below that of an executive knight, and most of Hufester’s other warriors were composed of excellent people from their respective families.
“If even one innocent person dies in the holy kingdom today, the honor of Runkandel and Hufester will be ruined. Block and disperse! There will definitely be a battle outside the plaza!”
insect!
The Guardian Knights and Hufester warriors fiercely protected the subjects of the Holy Kingdom, as if their family had been attacked.
It was because performing an operation with Luna in itself was the greatest honor for them.
The lofty White Whale Baekkyung.
The greatest legend since Shiron and the name that Hufester’s warriors long for.
Also, I didn’t know when I would be able to wield a sword with Luna. It was impossible to disappoint Luna at this glorious moment.
On the other hand, Luna was thinking like this.
‘Looking at the satisfied expression on your maknae’s face, fortunately I seem to have read your thoughts well.’
My heart skipped a beat because I was successfully completing my first mission as Jin’s sword.
She could no longer imagine anyone else leading Runkandel after her father, if not Jin Runkandel’s own youngest brother.
Squeak Chaeng!
Numerous magics were being fired, but as if caught in a pole, they all headed towards the camp.
The civilians left their seats in an orderly manner under Luna’s protection, and several reporters risked their lives to stick behind the guardian knights and record this scene in their notebooks.
“This is not the time for rider 1.”
Joshua found Luna.
“What is it?”
“Shouldn’t we get a backup rider? It is said that he broke the family law, but if the prospective jockey dies at the hands of Ziple, the family’s prestige.”
“What is the relationship between the death of the second rider and the prestige of Runkandel? This task will have to be handled by the reserve jockey himself. Friendship with the Holy Kingdom is more important than his safety.”
“…Then wouldn’t it be better to punish the reserve rider with our own hands? That’s probably more important than keeping people safe. Please use your judgment carefully.”
Then, in Luna’s eyes, there was a chance to live.
“Your black knights are no longer here. What do you believe in and fight against me? Keep your attitude straight if you don’t want to be disgraced.”
In an instant, the blood drained from Joshua’s face.
As Luna said, there is no black knight, but in fact, the execution knights brought separately were waiting in disguise all over the plaza.
Therefore, if you wanted to go against Luna’s order, you could go against it as much as you wanted.
They will follow their own orders first no matter what Luna gives them.
In that case, it would be Luna, not herself, who would rather be disgraced.
But Joshua decided not to throw up on Luna anymore.
‘I can’t endure a moment of humiliation and ruin Runcandel, which will soon become mine. Besides, if I go against my eldest sister, I’m in an atmosphere where I’ll lose the trust of other samurai families.’
Rank wars are only fought within families. Having a feud with Luna in such an official setting would only diminish the dignity of Runkandel.
Luna’s arrogance seemed to boil over her stomach, but there was no need to be silly.
“All right.”
Joshua answered in a calm voice.
I was worried that if Jin went wrong, I wouldn’t be able to take Solderlet’s contract, but when I turned my head, it seemed like it wouldn’t happen.
Kurur-!
Blue lightning was falling from the dry sky.
The very power that made people misunderstand Bamal as ‘Faytel’s contractor’.
The six wizards blocking the center of the plaza were collapsing, unable to properly respond to the lightning.
‘It’s the power of the Myungwang family. When he faced me in the Blue Bird Islands, did he show his potential without using that power? It’s going to be difficult unless the mage-class wizards are properly camped out.’
The prophecy pointed to himself, but there was no way to know why Heaven favored Jin.
Whoops! bang!
Every time lightning strikes, the floor of the plaza explodes and stones and wizards jump out.
As long as he was sure that Luna was perfectly protecting his subjects, Jin had nothing to be rough about.
It was an instant for the six wizards to lose their lives.
‘Myungwangsword is really good. Unless you’re a genius, the first time you experience it, you’ll be easily defeated.’
Of course, the six wizards in the center were people who could be called geniuses in the world. That’s why he works as a magician belonging to the Zipline family.
However, by Jin’s standards, he was a criminal. Compared to the strong enemies he had fought in the past, he was no different from a small pike.
“Respond calmly! Just like when dealing with a Lightning Wizard! And keep enchanting them so they don’t come close!”
The four wizards on the left belonged to the geniuses even by Jin’s standards.
They skillfully blocked the path of lightning with a shield and narrowed the siege.
And by transforming various ice barrier magic, it disturbed Jin’s vision. It was not easy to catch the strike point of the lightning because of the ice pillars surrounding him at the moment.
Trusting Hufester’s knights and cutting down all the pillars with swordsmanship wasn’t a bad move.
There was no need to spend more time in the square in the yard that pierced the center.
“Shuri!”
Jin took out the red jade from his bosom. Whoops! When the red jade glowed, Shuri came out of it.
“What else is that…!”
“Go cat?”
This time, even the gifted wizards took a step backwards with their flagship. This is the reaction everyone will have the first time they see a cat bigger than a wagon.
Not to mention, if a cat that size even shoots mana rays with its eyes.
[Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaak]
Shuri jumped up and screamed and fired a beam at the wizards. Jin leaps towards Shuri using the ice pillars laid by the wizards as a stepping stone.
The moment Jin climbed on Shuri’s back, the magicians were in a hurry to block the rays with a protective shield.
Only buy…!
Shuri, who landed lightly on the ground, roared again.
Then, the Yangmin, who were still standing in confusion, and the reporters, who were desperately watching the whole scene, sat down on the floor. The roar had loosened his legs.
It was a roar that was adjusted so that the trained warriors could endure it.
Is that really Runkandel’s reserve rider…?
Not only Hufester’s soldiers, but also the fallen civilians and the barely surviving wizards of Ziple were thinking the same thing for a second.
A scene that seems to come out of a fairy tale that children see is happening.
When all the civilians fell, the road became wide in an instant.
Shuri threw herself lightly and ran down the open road. It was moving like crazy, but it didn’t happen that a single Yangmin was trampled to death by Shuri.
[Miyaa!]
Shuri asked. Which direction should I run now?
Jin pointed in the direction of the movement gate.
to go to the port. The gold ingots that Ziple brought are piled up like a mountain. Jin’s last plan was to melt all the gold there, drown it in the sea, and escape.
It was an instant to arrive at the movement gateway. Ziffle’s wizards outside the square couldn’t even chase Shuri.
As soon as Jin and Shuri entered, the loyalists of the Holy Kingdom, who had been waiting in advance, opened the movement gateway.
“Thank you, Gongja Jin. I wish you luck.”
“You too.”
And as soon as Jin arrived at the port, he had to face an unexpected person.
“…jin? Isn’t that Jin!?”
A white-haired young man who recognizes Jin with his eyes wide open.
Zipple’s next head of household, Beradin Zipple.
Beradin also seemed to have just arrived at the port. And behind Beradin.
Roaring…
Gold bars were burning.
