Chapter 636,
Chapter 163. Return to the Family (5)
The Garden of Swords, which had been shining with the sun and blue flowers, became dark in an instant.
The unique deformed darkness created by chaos narrowed his forehead and looked at the blackened sky and the garden of swords.
Red eyes were shining brightly all over the place. All of them were the gazes of the knights who were confronting Jin.
‘As soon as the darkness deepened, the aura of the knights became stronger… Is it the result of the Prophet amplifying the chaos that was scattered throughout the Garden of Swords?’
The Prophet and Rosa were nowhere to be seen. As if it wasn’t there in the first place.
Jin guessed that the reason for the amplification of the marriage period was that the two of them used some means. It is said that the Prophet used Rosa’s power as a medium for trickery.
‘Or did the acting governor move to prepare for external attack defense?’
Kingelo and Zipple.
Jin was still convinced that the two forces were watching the battle and preparing for an all-out attack.
‘Then I’ll have no choice but to regret going without making a proper judgment or keeping myself in check.’
Whether it’s to contain external attacks or for other reasons.
Jin was confident that he would make Rosa regret leaving him behind.
And all the choices she’s made so far.
New articles were constantly appearing somewhere.
Like worms that hide in the dark and see their prey, they crawl out without knowing that the prey contains poison they can’t handle.
Their number has already exceeded a thousand by an estimate, and if they continue to multiply at this rate, they will reach 10,000 within an hour.
Each and every one of those knights has an energy of 8 stars or higher.
‘Even if that’s the case, it’s just a battle doll that doesn’t even deserve its power.’
To Jin, they felt no different from the monsters of the Great Desert of Mithra they encountered on the first day they returned to Inse.
Of course, it was Jin’s standard. The knights tainted with chaos had the fighting power to wipe out a decent kingdom within a day or two, even if there was only one group.
‘The things I have to deal with with a bit of tension are a few real guys among them. There are only traitors who have not lost their dignity even after being stained with chaos.’
Whoaaah…!
The flames of the fire grew even thicker.
“How could I have been unaware that the family’s goal was not immorality and perversity…”
Cheonghwa hid Jin’s location for a moment. The black swordsmen who lost their RBIs beat the Blue and White barriers in vain.
Runcandel’s 5th Secret Weapon,
Lightspeed Thrust – Myungwang
Five beams of lightspeed thrust poured at the same time tore the battlefield into pieces.
A small hole was pierced in the chest of the knights standing in the front line, and chaos was erased one by one in the aftermath of the storm that spread behind them.
Before the knights could react and refill the collapsed ranks, Jin had already reached the point where the beam thrust spread through the center had reached.
That spot was where those who resisted the chaos to the end, including the Tona brothers, stood.
Also, as soon as Jin settled down, the nearby knights were cut and scattered by Bradamante like dust blown away by the wind.
“Uh uh! You are the youngest!”
“Back behind!”
The Tona brothers had mixed emotions when they saw Jin who had come to open the way, but they had no choice but to shout urgently to look back.
It was because a black knight was wielding a sword behind his brother’s back.
Jin rushed in without even looking at him and hugged the Tona brothers who were trying to put their bodies in place of him.
“Brothers, you’ve worked hard…”
The moment the brothers reunited, they couldn’t reach the Black Knight’s Black Jin, who attacked the rear.
The fire burned his entire body.
The dead black knight’s helmet fell to the floor and made a hollow sound.
“There are many things I want to say, but let’s get out of here.”
The first time he saw those trapped underground, Jin expected that many of them would die on the spot.
Brother Tona screamed at that. Don’t mind them and do what you want to do.
Fortunately, things have changed.
‘If there is no acting governor, I can save a lot more knights than I expected.’
Why did Rosa let them live? And why did you leave without killing them?
Suddenly, I had such a question.
The Prophet explained that it was just a last consideration. If it was only that, it seemed that Jin would not be able to forgive her even more.
Because a person who dared to pollute Runkandel cannot be considerate of Runkandel.
Of course, there were still many variables that could get in the way of saving the resisters.
You never know for sure that Rosa will return to her battlefield, how far the traitors will proliferate, and you can never be sure that there won’t be something that even Jin cannot handle.
So Jin had to evacuate them first.
“But it’s surprising that you stayed here. Elder Jorden.”
Jorden Runcandel.
Jin met his eyes.
“…Even from the atmosphere, it seems that you were the leader of the rebels.”
Even while they were talking, the traitors were unable to approach Jin.
Jorden let out a laugh as he alternately looked at Blaze and Jin, who were protecting them.
“I just remembered the essence of the family I had forgotten about. Thanks to some crazy monster.”
-Have you regained your confidence after losing everything? It’s good that you say such cheeky things.
-I just remembered the essence of the family I had forgotten.
That’s the same thing Jorden said to Rosa when Joshua fell in the past.
“And the leader of the resisters was originally not me, but the Fourth Horseman.”
“Where is Difus? Who is Mary?”
“I can not know. whether alive or dead.”
Difus was still imprisoned in the dungeon, but the other resisters were unaware of it. because he was incarcerated.
“…I’m sorry.”
“It’s not something the elder should be sorry for. So, are the confirmed survivors all those who are here now?”
“okay.”
Like those who resisted, Jorden’s body bore the marks of the pain he suffered in the dungeon.
Almost only bones remained like a bouncer, and even the energy of chaos that ate away the entire body.
Even so, Jin felt a certain transcendental quality from Jorden. No matter how weak the body is, it will never disappear.
“It seems that the elder’s closing training was also successful.”
“I don’t think I can compare to you.”
“I cannot be responsible for escaping to the end on my own. It would be nice if that were possible, but I don’t think the traitors’ outbursts will be this far. If I clear the way, the elder will take responsibility and evacuate them. To Tikan.”
“Puheh… Interesting. We’ve always been enemies, but will you trust me?”
“No, I believe in Jorden, the head of the Black Sword, who was mean like an old snake… but in Jorden Runcandel, the family knight.”
Jorden’s eyes widened.
“…I’ll support you, 12 horsemen.”
Jin did not forgive Jorden.
Jorden knew that too.
However, it was only that the two eventually shared the value of Runkandel called ‘struggle’.
That was enough. The reason why we can fight together for Runkandel while covering our grudges.
“By the way, the 12th rider. As you just predicted, this is not all of Rosa Runkandel and the power of the Prophet.”
“Tell me everything you know.”
“The fact that the Traitors have been strengthened now is the result of the chaos in the Garden of Swords being opened. We went through the same situation the day we were imprisoned in the dungeon.”
At that time, the resisters had shown quite a struggle against the chaotic traitors. It wasn’t as much as Jin, but he had cut countless strengthened knights.
It was thanks to the existence of warriors such as Jorden and Diphus Merry who had reached the state after the closed training.
What brought them to complete despair that day was not just the fighting puppets with high destructive power, the endlessly reviving and proliferating knights of chaos.
“…soon the knights enshrined in the mausoleum will appear.”
“The knights from the mausoleum?”
“What we have personally confirmed are the Horsemen and the Dark Knights of the past. But if I were a prophet, I would call more and stronger beings against you…”
The moment Jorden said that.
All of a sudden, Jin spread ten beam thrusts and cleared the surroundings. In addition, the aura of fire that had been amplifying continued to grow to the point where the end was unknown even now.
No matter how many ants there are, they cannot kill a lion.
Just as Jin felt that the knights of chaos were no different from monsters in the desert, Jorden could see that fact.
“…but I don’t think there’s anything to worry about.”
Jorden shrugged.
He realized that Jin had used power that was not even 30 percent of his inaction.
The reason Jin organized the surroundings was no different.
It was because I recognized that the real exhaust of the real exhaust among the traitors began to show energy in earnest.
Black Knight Captain Stam.
He was slowly moving towards Jin.
“Go, Elder.”
Resisters began to leave the Garden of Swords.
The land soaked in chaos was messy, but they took the green road formed by fire as a guidepost.
Resisters didn’t even have to extend their swords against the chaos knights flocking in. The fire that surrounds them like a barrier protects them.
Their fight for escape would begin in earnest after they escaped the realm of flames.
“You don’t seem to have any intention of attacking them, Stam, the former leader of the Runkandel Dark Knights. You should be able to put a dent in my fire. Is it like the last remaining conscience?”
Stam glared at Jin without answering.
A huge aura and chaos were being released from it.
“No, former 12th rider Gene Runcandel. It’s because I decided that I shouldn’t waste even an inch of my strength to deal with you.”
“Fortunately, I didn’t have a bad conscience.”
Jin stared into Stam’s red eyes for a moment.
The Black Knight Captain of Runcandel, who was a lifesaver and fought alongside him in the Sword Emperor Temple, was now blocking himself as an enemy.
“Choosing to focus completely on me is definitely a great choice. It is lamentable that even with such judgment, Rosa Runkandel’s depravity was not stopped.”
“The legitimacy that it was to promote the survival of the family must ultimately be the responsibility of the last survivor. You are not yet qualified to judge whether Sir Rosa is wrong. Similarly, I am not yet convinced that you are wrong. That is a matter that can only be settled after you die.”
“I didn’t know you were good at bullshit, not just swords…”
The moment he was about to charge Stam.
Jin was able to recognize that another real exhaust appeared from behind.
[Black Knight Captain, I understand why you waited for me all this time. For a moment, I thought he was Shiron Runkandel, the current head of the family.]
Looking back, he was the first knight Jin had ever seen, and he had just escaped from the mausoleum.
