When I opened my eyes, the first thing I noticed were two people.
Gilly with reddened eyes full of crying and Murakan hugging her shoulders and comforting her.
I felt wrapped in some kind of silk that could no longer be warmed by the certainty that the two of them had been by my side all along.
“Little!”
“young master!”
Gilly and Murakan lowered their bodies to check Jin’s condition.
“Gili Murakan.”
“Are you really okay, Bocchan? Are there any places that are uncomfortable or stuffy!”
“There is nothing like that. dead. who died? Is there a dead knight in my hand?”
It was a problem that I was worried about until I collapsed.
He didn’t want to kill even the innocent knights in the fight between his family and himself.
Of course, even if the majority of them were knights of the ‘enemy’, they were clearly weaker than themselves and loyal to their family.
Even when I have to cut down such knights in the future, I want to deal with it through an honorable fight or a reasonable purge, if possible, rather than this kind of ‘raid’. Just like when he dealt with Joshua’s knights who followed him in Samil.
“No, Bocchan.”
“Fortunate.”
-[And I will issue an order to the members of the family below the Horseman.]
-[Do your best to protect them so that not a single Guardian Knight will die because of my sword.]
Also, the word that I said while spreading the King’s Reign Sword was kept. The point also had meaning.
It wasn’t really that the members of the riders and below threw themselves into following Jin’s orders, but that’s what they looked like as a result.
“Is it right to worry about the knights as soon as you open your eyes, kid? Strawberry Pie and I, how long have you been down…”
“I know, I’m sorry for worrying you.”
Gilly let out a sigh of relief as Jin gently hugged the two of them. Murakan said it was disgusting and left right away.
“no. I was the one who caused great concern as soon as the young master returned.”
“What worries Gilly? The family just treated you too much.”
Jin naturally shifted his gaze to Murakan.
“Has Sir Murakan Telot really treated Gilly humanely?”
“Oh, he knew something. It seemed like he made me feel more comfortable here than when I was chasing after you.”
“Chairman Homin, of course he did. But after the incident, I thought that Jorden or the other elders might have touched Gilly for no reason.”
“If so, would I have left you alone?”
“That’s right.”
“Besides, in this situation, is there anyone who hastily steps forward to touch you? Haha, I mean, there was an uproar. Your mother and the 3rd Horseman are still in intensive care, and the members of the Presbyterian Church are all busy watching.”
The Garden of Swords was still in shock. The inaction that Jin showed was a level that easily exceeded everyone’s expectations in Runkandel.
Of course, since Jin immediately lost consciousness, everyone who watched knew that he had unleashed a dangerous sword with his life as collateral.
But only nineteen.
I’m just now at the age where the terms and conditions are in front of my eyes. At that age, would there be another human who could overturn Runkandel even if he risked his life?
Anyone who has experienced it can tell you. Jin is the only person like that, and it is unknown whether even the 19-year-old Luna could have done it like Jin.
He even badly injured Rosa at the end. Rosa and Runtia are still receiving intensive care from medical staff.
Because of this incident, even those who hate Jin had no choice but to admit that he had potential beyond Luna.
“It will be worth seeing.”
“Damn little bastard, how many days did you lie down for a little bit of effort on that?”
“A little bit, because I was pretty great.”
amazing.
It occurred to me that he had shown himself not ashamed to express himself that way in the tepid flow of the Garden of Swords. Thanks to that, both of my arms were cut off as soon as I arrived and I was wandering between life and death.
“Yeah, that was great. But if it was great just one more time, then there would be no answer.”
“How stunned have I been?”
“Ten days.”
“It means I was about to die. It seems like you’ve been too indebted to Rani lately.”
“You were in a state where you couldn’t guarantee your recovery even with the holy power of a religious man, kid.”
“Then who cured me? It would have been difficult with only the family medical team…”
Suddenly, Jin stopped talking and looked around at me. Come to think of it, I felt too good for having just woken up.
“…was it the blood of Numerus?”
Murakan and Gilly nodded.
Until just 3 minutes ago, the pulse was faint, breathing was irregular, and the body was unconscious. Even the optical heart was as dim as an extinguished lantern.
The body absorbed a drop of blood left by the extinct god and regained vitality in an instant. As if the fight that was so great had all been a dream.
“Who the hell?”
“Yes father.”
“Are you kidding?”
Unbeknownst to me, such an answer came out.
never once in a lifetime.
He had never even imagined that Shiron Runkandel’s father would help him in this way.
He had known from before that his father had a good opinion of him, but this was a separate issue.
It directly gave strength to the rank war.
Until now, none of the brothers had ever received such support from Shiron.
“Bocchan, the previous butler brought it himself. He told me that it was the only thing in my family.”
“Why are you making such a stupid expression?”
“I’m just a little surprised, to be honest.”
I was confused and couldn’t immediately think of what to say.
“Still, no one in the family knows that Numerus blood was used on you, except for Mr. Murakan and the butler.”
“No one knows?”
“yes.”
The family members thought that Heinz visited Jin’s room just to check on the situation. No one expected that the family head would have personally donated the blood of Numerus.
food.
Jin burst out laughing.
“young master?”
“Why are you laughing?”
“There must be a reason why my father bestowed the blood of Numerus without anyone knowing. I guess I’ve been thinking about you all wrong.”
“The reason…?”
“I’m going to hide it, but there’s no need to let you know. For the first time in a while, for a day or two, the three of us can spend some time together and go out. If you leave right away, the butler will get suspicious.”
“ah!”
Gilly, realizing the meaning, clapped his hands.
“You plan not to reveal to the patriarch the fact that you received Numerus blood?”
“okay. Of the humans outside, there must be at least half of those who want me to die. I wonder how they will look in a few days.”
“Can I do that? Anyway, since the young master suddenly woke up, it will soon be revealed that he used the sacred object of Numerus.”
“You can say it was something I got when I was a reserve jockey. Whether you believe it or not, they have no means to prove that it is something your father gave you.”
“But it’s a sacred item bestowed by the head of the family… I’m afraid I might end up incurring the head’s anger.”
“If you wanted to be condescending, you wouldn’t have secretly given it to me. It was given to me, so I can do as I please. Rather, tell us about the family atmosphere in more detail. How many people want to stick to me.”
“I can’t know for sure. However, when Petro looked at the airflow, it seemed that a very small percentage of the Guardian Knights and 100% of the Enforcement Knights had goodwill toward the Bocchan.”
“Right now, it will be difficult to clearly identify friends. If the knights of the neutral and other riders are about 20%, the rest is the power of the elders and Joshua.”
“That’s right.”
Even if all the neutral powers were gathered (even that would not be easy), it would still be a fight in which the Senate and Joshua had an overwhelming advantage.
It is an obvious fact that Jin caused a huge wave.
Nevertheless, ‘solid vested interest’ is not always easy to break down. It was a story common to all groups in the world, not just Runkandel.
“Besides, most of Hufester’s other samurai have been recruited by Joshua for a long time, so those attached to Joshua won’t change their positions easily in the future.”
“Anyway, I don’t understand what it means to be human. Didn’t you say you wouldn’t change after seeing how you destroyed the Garden of Swords by yourself?”
“No one died.”
It was certainly fortunate that none of the knights who were protected at the time died.
On the one hand, it also showed the limits of the power of an individual named Jin.
It was because this place was Runkandel that not a single death occurred in the terrible magic sword and thunder sword that literally unfolded like an attack.
“When I was a reserve jockey, even Sister Luna came to see my father and got into trouble. It’s true that individual strength is very important, but you can never fight Runkandel alone. We all know that, so we continue to support Joshua. Because it is stable.”
“Then, since those who seemed to be kind to you said that it was 10%, you should make sure to catch them first. Shall I meet you sometime?”
“you?”
“Aren’t I still quite symbolic of this goddamn Runkandel? If I start recruiting the knights in earnest, it will be quite effective…”
Jin and Gilly imagined the scene and burst into laughter at the same time.
“Are you kidding me?”
“It will only hurt your pride, Murakan. If they were the ones who would turn around after seeing you, they would have done it right away.”
“I have to get my strength back quickly, ha!”
“And I have no intention of meeting those who are kind to me.”
“what? why?”
“You seem to like me, so please be by my side. It’s not very attractive. Even if you stay still, you should make them follow you by saying that they will swear allegiance on their own. We do shows in moderation only when necessary. As for Runkandel, we will expand our power in that way…”
Jin continued talking while making eye contact with the two.
“First of all, it is the other forces that need to be met in person.”
As always, Jin intended to develop strength from the outside.
“The families of the Bement and Lutero magic federations, Hufester’s martial arts that still have room to be subsumed, top-notch mercenaries such as the Black Kings and Ghost Corps, and other big neutral forces. The expansion of power has to start from that place.”
First of all, Jin intended to prove through them that his ability was not limited to strong inaction.
