Chapter 391 Chapter
118. Even if you cover it, you can’t cover it (1)
October 1, 1799.
the depths of the Black Sea.
A man covered in something like the black blood and flesh of a monster is running.
It’s Guardian Knight Khan. In his arms was a letter he had received from an executioner who had come to the beginning of the Black Sea.
It had already been over 10 years since he had already delivered a letter about Jin to Shiron. Khan was more serious than ever.
I couldn’t look at the contents of the letter, but it was because I heard from the executive engineer what happened in the main house.
‘We have to go as soon as possible. Before the family lord enters the realm of the 5 kings of the Black Sea…!’
The realm of the 5 kings of the Black Sea.
Shiron and his knights were now planning to enter the land directly ruled by the kings of the Black Sea beyond the heartland.
Khan had encountered the executioner while inspecting the entrance and vicinity of the Black Sea for the last time before that.
Until now, this cursed land has always been, but from the realm of the 5 kings of the Black Sea, it was a completely unknown world.
Maybe after entering, you might be completely cut off from the outside world for a while.
There were a lot of monsters that were particularly attached to it today. Each and every one of them could become a secret monster with time and opportunity, and even after entering the depths, Khan had to fight for another full day and a half.
Whoop whoop…
Shiron’s main body began to appear when it reached the point where it could no longer hold out. Fortunately, they had yet to enter the territory of the 5 kings of the Black Sea.
Shiron and the knights were taking a short break after a long while, making a fire using the corpses of monsters as fuel.
“My lord.”
Khan took a deep breath and lowered his head. The disgusting smell of burning demon corpses stung my nose.
“What is it, Khan?”
Shiron, as always, was floating in the air, sitting still. There was a contrast between the haggard faces of the knights and his clean face.
“I received an urgent letter from my hometown. It’s about the 12th Horseman.”
Shiron opened his eyes carefully.
“Get it here.”
The khan held out the letter to him in an extremely polite gesture.
Ji profit!
To the other knights except for Khan, it was very unfamiliar to see Shiron tearing the seal with a curious look.
Khan felt a strange sense of pride in that fact.
‘It’s the first time since the 1st Horseman that the family lord has shown such an appearance.’
‘I’ve heard from the senior black knights a few times, but it seems like the family lord’s expectations for the 12 Horsemen are great.’
While the dark knights were amazed, there was a monster who secretly looked to see if it would be okay for them to intervene.
[ha ha ha. Oh, it looks like you’ve had something good, old man!]
It was the legendary monster, Ozdok.
Of course, Shiron didn’t respond at all to Ozdock’s flattering voice.
Instead, it was the cold eyes of the dark knights that flew to Ozdok. It means to close the mouth immediately and sit quietly in the corner.
Unfortunately, Ozdok couldn’t read the current (even accepting Shiron’s unresponsiveness as a positive meaning) and continued to raise his voice cheerfully.
It was because I was tired.
The days of slaughter and battles that continued day after day without a single word of conversation were too much for him, a high-ranking monster who had lived for 2,000 years.
Whether it’s a light joke or small talk! Ozdok wanted to say something please.
[If it is the 12th rider. Aren’t you the youngest son who fought with me back then? I took off some of my inner hem. Oh, of course, that doesn’t mean it’s a waste. It will be used for something worthwhile… hehe. Dad was a really cool person. He was also handsome… hee! Don’t hit me when I was wrong!]
In the end, just as the dark knights were about to step out and shut Ozdok’s mouth, Chiron lightly raised his hand to stop them.
“Leave me alone.”
“yes!”
As the black knights withdrew their fists and bowed silently, Ozdok awkwardly scratched the back of his head.
[Sorry. I just did it because the elderly seemed to have fun. Ummm… I’ll serve you soon!]
As Ozdock said, a faint smile was already on Chiron’s lips.
He started reading the letter.
(The 12th Horsemen of California had an accident.)
“Jedro.”
I knew it as soon as I saw the first line. It was the only sibling’s handwriting that was kept alive during the rank war in their youth.
(He leaked information about the tomb of the first patriarch through the 7th Horseman. The patriarch probably knew about him from before, but that alone caused a stir in the family. Everyone is waiting for him to check the authenticity when he returns
. Do you know what happened while he was there?
As soon as he returned, he had a fight with the elder Jorden. Because of this, the elder cut off both of his arms. The Holy King came and healed him, but he will never again use the sword as before. It is said that he almost couldn’t swing it.)
At that point, as soon as Shiron’s forehead narrowed, Ozdok abruptly knelt down and opened the teacup. I held out the monster’s skull filled with tea.
The fire in which the tea was brewed was made from the corpses of monsters, so it was truly a terrible tea. But no one will believe that the car is one of the greatest luxuries available here.
(Anyway, right after the treatment was over… He declared that he would return Runcandel to the name of the magic swordsmen. Then, he
subdued the elders who stood in the way and defeated the 3rd rider head-on.)
Shiron’s pupils widened. Ozdok and the black knights couldn’t help but be startled by that appearance.
3 Horseman Runtia.
If that child lost to Jin, it must have been because he was careless. Even so, Runtia’s defeat by Jin came as a fresh shock to Shiron as well.
Whether it was because he was careless or as a result of Jin reaching a new level.
To be defeated is to be defeated.
(The battleground where the incident took place disappeared without a trace, and the courtyard and the main building were almost destroyed.
Following the demonic sword wielding fire, lightning strikes like crazy… This is hard to explain. You should have seen it yourself.
That madman . I knew this would overturn the family once, but I never thought it would cause such a major accident. The following
is a summary of the damage caused to the Garden of Swords while dealing with the 12
horsemen
. 4th class minor injuries 5th class minor injuries 6th class minor injuries 7th class minor injuries 8th class minor injuries 9th class ranks minor injuries 10th class ranks minor injuries 11th ranks minor wounds 3rd ranks medium
wounds
12th
ranks
critical
. More than 40% of Jin seriously injured.
12 executive knights seriously injured, 54 lightly
injured
. Many others injured .
No combat personnel deaths.
Under media control.
The Garden of Swords has restored all dispatched knights and is maintaining a wartime state… …the exact list
of casualties is detailed in the last chapter.
I suffered deep internal injuries because I didn’t do this.
The medics said I had to be extremely stable for a while. Can you
believe it? It wasn’t a sudden attack by the main force of Zipline, it wasn’t an attack by Bement, it wasn’t a treason.
All of this It happened because of the force of
the individual Twelve Horseman. Because of the force
of that wild bastard who is not even 20 years old!
It would be fun to see them grow up.)
Hahahaha…!
Shiron suddenly burst into laughter.
Ozdok tried to laugh along with his eyes, but he had no choice but to keep his mouth shut when his eyes met Shiron’s.
It was because Shiron erased his smile at that moment.
At this point, the knights were also anxious about the contents of the letter.
So I gave Kahn a sneak peek. Since you’ve been in charge of the correspondence about the 12 horsemen for a while, I’d like you to try your luck.
“Is the situation at the head of the household not as bad as I heard?”
“What did you hear?”
“I heard from Executioner Cron that the entire Hufester has been sealed off and is in a state comparable to wartime.”
“It says so in the letter. It’s not a problem that will be covered up by doing so, but it seems that everyone was shocked.”
“Honestly, I’m worried about the 12th rider.”
“It is the land beyond that we have to worry about.”
Khan and the knights nodded heavily. Shiron’s gaze reached the gaze of the Black Sea Kings beyond the depths.
The 5th King of the Black Sea, an area that can be reached in just a few more days. A day earlier, Luna and Vanessa Tuven were scouting the streets.
In that land, there will be many days when even Shiron will have to fight with all his might.
Slowly, Shiron turned the letter over again. It was to revisit the content that bothered me from the first time I read it.
12 riders in critical condition.
Middle and high mean are distinctly different. After the ‘Declaration of Magical Swordsman’, Jin was still in a state of unconsciousness and could not get out of the hospital bed.
What Jed wrote at the end of the letter, as if asking Chiron to come back for a while, was no different.
It meant to ask for direct action so that the flames of the 12th Horseman would not go out like this. It also meant to give strength if possible.
It was the first time in his entire life that Zed had asked him for a favor like this.
“It would be disrespectful to pay attention to family talk ahead of the battle with the Black Sea Kings.”
Although he was asked by Jed, Shiron had no intention of returning and inspecting it himself.
“But before the time is lost, a reasonable reward must be given.”
The compensation Shiron was talking about was not about the incident Jin caused this time.
-I will report to my lord that the first discoverer of this monster was the 12 Horsemen. If the lord decides that the monster is worthy, there will be a reward accordingly.
The words that Tuben left for Jin while taking Ozdok.
Ozdok was proving his worth after participating in Chiron’s Expedition.
Although he was a bit lost due to his vague memory, he made a great contribution to finding the territory of the Black Sea Kings.
Even after entering the realm of kings, it was a monster with many uses.
“Cannes.”
“Yes, my lord.”
“Contact the family as soon as possible and take action so that Jin can use it.”
