Chapter 458,
Chapter 131. People with good intuition People with bad intuition (2)
The great mercenary Amela of the Gaipa Islands was a person with very little known information compared to his reputation as the 3rd mercenary.
Everyone praised her obscurity, and every year a special article about Amela appeared infrequently.
It was only natural that Amela had carried out at least one war-related commission every year and always brought out ‘great’ results.
But that information was inconsequential. Among the news reporters, Amela rarely appeared in public even though she had met her in person, so it was safe to say that the article was purely imaginary.
Jin in his previous life also came into contact with the character Amela only through such articles.
just one time. My teacher Valeria Heister once told me about Amela.
– Amela wears the skins of the people she killed? I often feel it, but there are many strange articles about this person.
-Isn’t it because reporters are not particularly sanctioned when they publish false articles?
-It does. However, this person is the fact that reporters are writing articles about him, and how his image is being planted in the public. you have no idea?
– No idea?
-Yes, he was the kind of person who wasn’t seriously interested in what was going on in the world. From what I’ve seen. And it was incredibly pure.
-…pure? Wearing human skin seems like nonsense to me, but it seems to be a fact that the war ability is incredibly superior. But can you be pure?
-Because pure doesn’t necessarily mean good. Anyway, after drinking the tea, let’s go to training soon.
It was a conversation we had one day in our previous lives, having breakfast together and looking at newsletters.
At the time, I didn’t think Amela was that important, so I didn’t attach much importance to it.
‘Innocence doesn’t necessarily mean a good thing…’
Now that I think about it, it was obvious what that meant.
Amela is a human with a thin concept of good and evil.
“Why do you think so?”
Barkas asked one last question. He wants to hear what is the reason to keep Amela in check.
“The fact that the Dark Kingdom and the Ghost Squad formed an alliance with me.”
“It’s not an alliance, it’s a relationship between a lord and a subject. You don’t have to choose too many words considering my feelings or Lata’s.”
“The world now knows that. In fact, I wanted to hide it until the power became more solid. Anyway, now there are two of the largest neutral forces left in the world. Great Mercenary Amela and Secret Palace.”
“It is.”
“It has not yet been revealed to the world that Bigung is an ally with me, but all the great powers must have guessed to some extent.”
“Well… the people of the world will recognize it as a spare family rather than an alliance. Rumors of marriage between the lord and the lady of the concubine are very old.”
“The only thing left is Amela, so anyone. It would be awkward for me to embrace even Amela. I haven’t been in a good situation lately, so I’m only coming out now, but other factions are already trying to contact Amela. If you’re unlucky, you might have already decided to belong somewhere.”
Due to Jin’s recent actions.
The landscape of the world has changed.
Watching the long-neutral forces belonging to Runkandel 12 Horseman, the tension between the great powers is getting tighter.
All those who were in the gray zone were making a choice. Which side will I be on? Neutrals are disappearing moment by moment.
“It is unlikely that you have already belonged somewhere, my lord. Because he is such an unpredictable person.”
“Are you familiar?”
“Probably by Amela’s standards, it’s pretty close. By normal standards, I ran into them a few times on the battlefield and had a couple of meals together.”
As both Amela and Valkas were famous mercenaries, they had received different requests and stood on the same battlefield.
He narrowed his brows as he recalled the moments that Balkas did.
“You know? Lord. Amela has no mercenaries of her own.”
“Yes, he is a person who works alone.”
“And yet, when I met Amela on the battlefield, I never defeated her.”
“Are you saying that there is that much of a gap between Sir and Amela?”
“The gap between the Black Royals and Amela, not me and Amela.”
Jin’s eyes widened.
“What is that…”
“I hate to admit it, but at least in terms of my ability to conduct war, Amela has the upper hand in arguing with the entire Dark Kingdom, including me. If it was a one-on-one duel rather than a war, the story might be different again, but I am confident. I haven’t had a chance to compete with that.”
Balkas made eye contact with Jin and continued his conversation.
“In other words, it means that Amela must be made into the man of the lord. It’s just that the client is different, fighting temporarily and becoming an obvious enemy are completely different issues. Personally, I think you should consider killing them if you think they will become enemies.”
Jin nodded at that determined voice.
“I see what you mean. Figuring out what Amela wants is your first priority. Do you know anything in particular?”
“adventure.”
“adventure?”
“Amela has been wandering and exploring the world all her life. When I impliedly asked him when we were eating together after the battle, he seemed to be looking for something with great eagerness… but he didn’t tell us exactly what it was.”
If you just figure out what it is, you can easily make it your own person.
Such an intense intuition crossed my mind.
‘I am not seriously interested in what goes on in the world. Maybe the teacher expressed it that way in her previous life because Amela is a person buried in her own goals.’
It was necessary to ask the current Valeria if she knew Amela. It would be nice to go together.
“Anyway, we should meet and talk.”
“Yes, my lord. And it might be helpful to take the Frochi siblings.”
“Lata and Fay?”
“Because when the three met on the battlefield before, Amela seemed to find them strangely cute. Lata seemed to hate it, but.”
I couldn’t imagine a person who thought Lata was cute, but it didn’t seem like there was anything wrong with taking her.
“All right.”
“Then I will go back to oversee the construction. If Amela comes out cooperatively, please give me my regards.”
After Balkas left, one person looked for Jin as if he had been waiting for it.
It was Gilly.
“young master.”
“Yes, Gilly.”
Jin too from before. No, to be precise, he knew that Gilly had been wanting to talk to him about something lately.
He was waiting for her to sort out her thoughts and let go of luck.
‘It was always disturbing because of Dox.’
Even after becoming a jockey, even when the McLorrang family didn’t say hello, Dox, who had saved them at best, left without a word (actually, Jinro feels rather like he received a message to raise his alert level as a gift), even now.
Gilly acted as if he had sinned.
“I’m worried about what to do if my brother… No, the Black Knight doesn’t follow the Master’s orders.”
“Why is Gilly worried about that?”
“That’s my family.”
Gilly paused for a moment and then said this in a confident voice.
“Because he’s from my family…”
“For the black knight, the family name has no meaning. And as I said last time…”
He stopped talking, barely suppressing his rising anger.
Naturally, the anger was directed not at Gilly, but at the McLorrang family, who were making Gilly smaller.
“I’m not going to have any particular ill feelings toward McLauran. Unless they openly harm Gilly. So don’t worry.”
Regarding Gilly, Jin also couldn’t control his emotions well.
The words say not to worry, but Jin’s eyes were so deep that it wouldn’t be strange if he killed the McLorrang family right away.
Gilly couldn’t raise his head in agony, and Jin realized it a beat late.
‘ah.’
Although he always knew that Gilly’s heart should take precedence over anger, it was difficult to put into practice.
But it was because Jin knew.
Because I remember it well.
When he was banished from his previous life and Gilly faced the same fate…
The McLaurangs did not extend a helping hand to Gilly. McLauran’s position at Hufester could have helped Gilly.
Of course, it was impossible to help her become a warrior again, but at least she could be prevented from facing a lonely and miserable death.
That was why Jean was furious with the McLorrans.
“Well, and the black knight has no choice but to give me meaningful information whether or not he obeys the order. If you don’t respond, it can be calculated that all active black knights are involved in Riccarton. If you agree, you will uncover Joshua’s secret for me.”
Jin said, controlling his anger once more.
“Besides, Joshua won’t trust the black knight anymore, so there’s a good chance he’ll eventually become mine one day. Unless I get killed by Joshua before I become the family head.”
“Ah…”
“I’ll save you.”
“yes?”
“If Dox is going to be killed by Joshua, I will save him. As I said, he’s not a McLorrang soldier, he’s the Black Knight. It’s the most important military force in the family, so I don’t intend to let him die in vain. That’s why I saved it this time.”
When Gilly refused, Jin shrugged.
“You know Gilly has nothing to worry about now. I’m leaving for the Gaifa Islands right away, so please get ready. I have to go with the feeling that Gilly takes care of me after a long time.”
“I understand, young man. We will prepare it quickly.”
