Chapter 361 Chapter
111. Trace (1)
Ten days have passed since I got a new Bradamante.
I haven’t tried Bradamante properly yet. As an unmanned soldier, he wanted to test the performance of the enhanced weapon right away, but there was another issue that Jin was more concerned about.
‘Anzu Great Plain, where Temar’s first tomb was located. And it means that people have been to the Sucheron Kingdom where Jogebi and Olmango are….’
After Kingelo came and informed them that ‘other forces are also looking for Temar’s tomb’.
Jin thought about him all the time, and before going to capture Ozdok, he asked Tikan’s colleagues to revisit the tombs he had visited before.
And today Casimir delivered the news.
It is said that people presumed to be people of Jiple and Bement, respectively, visited the Anzu Great Plain and the shores of Shucheron Kingdom, respectively.
Jin found out that Temar’s tomb was in those areas through an arrangement left by Solderlet as a contractor.
In other words, it is virtually impossible to track the tomb unless you are a contractor.
‘They went to Anzu Great Plain and Shucheron Beach as a result of following me.’
Even after becoming a rider, Jin has always been in disguise whenever dealing with Temar or other personal matters.
When we went to Anzu Great Plain, we deliberately went through the Hola Mountains (though only Joshua was aware of it at the time) to disturb the pursuit, and when we went to Shucheron Beach, we just pretended to be on vacation together and played for a few days.
The secret space of the Myoin tribe, where the third tomb was located, had a mysterious property that could not be entered without their guidance. Even so, the specter had been tracking Jin.
‘My movement path is being exposed.’
The tracker was not directly attached.
If that was the case, there was no way he wouldn’t be aware of it. That is, unless someone like Jonah or the Nameless King is attached.
‘Even though Margiela said that my movements were exposed to the Bement Imperial Family. They’ve probably tracked down the aliases I’ve used and what’s revealed in my whereabouts, and they’ve pinpointed a few important areas. That’s why I sent people to Anzu Great Plain and Shucheron Beach.’
Of course, just because Ziple and Bement sent people to Anzu Great Plain and Shucheron Beach didn’t immediately dig up meaningful information.
The tombs that were already there were investigated, and the recording device was also taken by Jin.
However, the fact that ‘the back was stepped on’ was important.
I thought that one day it would be like that. Because the big powers are not stupid.
It was just a pity that it started showing up sooner than expected.
Being a ‘runkandel 12 horseman’ was a position where covert actions could not be made at all. It was only natural that he was the rider of Runcandel, as it was natural for him to try to keep an eye on his every move, not to mention his own faction, the Garden of Swords, as well as his enemies.
Not to mention, the enemies are also looking for Temar’s grave like Jin.
It was nothing short of a miracle that he had discovered three tombs alone so far without fatal problems.
‘It’s also because I’ve done that well, but eventually there will be a limit someday. Besides, I was lucky to encounter the wraiths in the third tomb, but in fact, it almost came as a big blow.’
If it had not been for the sudden invasion of Kingelo and the help of Dipus Mary, they would have suffered significant losses.
‘I need more allies.’
Jin is not alone. Only Jin and Tikan’s colleagues couldn’t deal with Bement and Ziple.
Even the inside of Runkandel is full of enemies, and Kingelo will also participate in the ‘grave race’ in the end.
While thinking about it, someone tapped Jin on the shoulder.
“Hey youngest!”
It was Mary.
“sister.”
“What are you thinking? Ah, did you have such a wonderful idea when you will have a rematch with this older sister?”
Mary sat down next to Jean.
Jin stares blankly at her.
‘If Sister Mary is a perfect ally, I think she’d be very reassuring.’
Mary already considered Jean as her own.
Jin also felt a human liking for her and a feeling that could be called brotherly love.
Even so, Jin did not inform her of the existence of Vin Blanche and Picon Minche.
It was because she judged that there was a high possibility that she would use them as the family blacksmith as the 7th horseman.
But there was another real reason why I couldn’t trust her.
‘As long as there is a second older brother, Sister Mary cannot be completely my person.’
The 4th rider of the Dipus Runcandel family.
To make Merry an ally, he had to subdue Dipus.
However, neither Difus nor Mary gave up the throne.
‘I’m Difus brother, Mary sister Joshua. Currently, there are four people who haven’t given up their position as head of household.’
And one person whose intentions are completely unknown is Runtia Runcandel.
If she was also aiming for the head of household, a total of five people competed.
Therefore, approaching Difus to solve the immediate problem was too much of a gamble.
Trying to get Difus to get Mary, but only giving out information and being stabbed in the back was a possible ending.
‘It’s unreasonable to enlist Difus and Mary right now. It is possible to use it.’
As riders, Difus and Merry always put the choice for their families first, no matter what the problem.
Jin suddenly remembered that proposition and smiled inwardly.
“A rematch? I think it would be better to just conclude this match with my sister’s victory.”
“Eh? Why is that? Uncle Tuven has invaded, so it’s best to nullify it and see the match again!”
“Even before Lord Tuven invaded, it was as if the match had already been won. Because my sister’s secret skill made Ozdok transform.”
“No, do you really think so?”
“yes.”
Merry naturally knew how to accept the result of Jin being invalid.
So, I was thinking of fighting again, but since Jin readily admitted defeat, it was a totally different flow than expected.
‘Can’t we do this? You have to wait another 3 months before you have a fight with the maknae!’
Mary grunted at that thought.
She expected that the youngest would readily accept the rematch because she had a fighting spirit as strong as herself.
“I don’t think so. stick again.”
“Don’t be too hard on opponents who admit defeat.”
“Then let’s use the winner’s right of command. My order is a rematch. Is there any problem with this?”
“…Didn’t you read the contract we sent you when we first agreed to a bet?”
-Every time you fight, victory or defeat is based on stun. The one who is knocked down first is the loser, and the loser must do one of the winner’s commands. Of course, I will draw up a contract so that there is no default.
– I like it. The contract is a bit cumbersome though.
The conversation we had during our first fight. At that time, Jin had actually made a contract and had Mary sign it.
Remembering that fact, Mary tilted her head.
“Uh… I think I read it.”
“There is a clause in the contract regarding the limits of winner orders. In addition to the content that the loser cannot be asked for self-determination, expulsion from the family, deprivation of property, etc. There is also a provision that a rematch cannot be ordered.”
“Self-determination and expulsion from the family are considered yes. Why a rematch!?”
“…You really don’t think an explanation is necessary, do you?”
“Then let’s take back what I won. Going back to the beginning, the confrontation itself using that monster is invalid. Let’s move on to the right thing to do again.”
“It seems that the winner has been decided from the moment my sister mentioned the right to command.”
Mary had nothing more to say.
“You lukewarm bastard!”
“That’s a nice compliment to hear.”
“I know later. good. you are good Let’s pretend I won. Then use real command authority. Give me that cat.”
“If you’re referring to the Butterfly Runcandel, you can take it as much as you like.”
“No butterflies. Not Murakan. Shuri’s red jade tomb.”
“If you look at the contract, there is also a clause that the winner cannot issue orders that the opponent cannot fulfill. Shuri has a contract with me and I cannot cancel it.”
“This is bad.”
“Sister, give a more realistic order. It’s not that difficult, is it?”
Merry almost punched Jin in the head.
But it wasn’t something to blame Jin. He was just an idiot for not looking at the contract properly…
Also, he was trying to fight the youngest one more raw, so there was nothing wrong with that. I can’t help but feel angry.
Jin glanced over at Mary’s frantic gaze.
“For example… ordering to buy a good drink.”
“I don’t need anything like that!”
“Or ask them to steal some of the limited edition pornography books Murakan has?”
“The last time I saw it, the ones I had were better… Huh no. Because let’s see this. Who is not a fool?”
“If you don’t like that, it’s like asking what kind of information Kingelo came to me this time and gave me. How many realistic commands are there?”
Then Mary’s eyes widened.
oh why did i forget that? It was a face called Even though he was the one who stopped Gilly from making a mistake when Kingelo found his family.
‘I feel like I’m being dragged into by the youngest guy… but it’s not bad information to know. Dipus’ brother seemed to be curious about what was going on between his mother, Jin, and Kingelo at that time.’
After Kingelo’s visit, Rosa still hasn’t told the riders about him.
“Sheesh yes. What information did Kingelo give you then?”
“The content was that each force, including Zipple and Bement, was tracking the legacy of the first family head.”
“what? The legacy of the first family head?”
“It’s about Temar Runkandel’s tomb.”
“…What is the tomb of the first family head?”
“His tomb hides the old powers and old secrets of Runkandel. And I was looking for a grave separate from my family, but Kingelo noticed it.”
Then Mary opened her eyes.
“You were looking for the tomb of the first patriarch, separate from your family? Are you saying that even though Mother knew about it, she stayed silent?”
It wasn’t her feelings toward Jean that made Mary so acutely angry.
Rosa Runcandel.
It was anger at the fact that his mother had not told the riders about such an important matter.
‘I bet you didn’t expect me to tell the other riders about Temar’s tomb, mother.’
Jin nodded, hiding a smile.
