Chapter 164. Land of Mischief (7)
Runcandel 4th secret weapon Black Cross.
Rosa unfolded the sword as the meteor shower broke.
The frenzied blades cut crosswise were emitting black sword energy.
At the intersection, the sword energy of the Black Cross poured into Talaris in a circle.
Rosa is not a pure-blood Runcandel.
However, perhaps thanks to her acceptance of chaos, she perfectly embodied the decisive battle and secret technique without a blessed body, and its power was such that Shiron, not Rosa, came to mind.
There was no way for Talaris and Mort to avoid the countless swords of the Black Cross.
Originally, Jin had to pass Rosa and dig into it, risking his own life and Kaio.
Even so, it was unknown whether the tired bodies of the two would be able to handle Rosa’s biggie.
Perhaps it would have resulted in not only not being able to save Talaris, but everyone dying.
If Murakan hadn’t appeared now, it would have been with a high probability.
The Black Cross is about to attack Talaris and Mort.
As if a black mountain rose out of nowhere, Murakan’s massive body landed behind Talaris and Motte.
At first glance, his body looked much bigger than Jin’s memory.
A pair of black wings that stretched forward like a barrier and blocked the black cross castle, even though the mote was all covered, the arms remained.
The sword spirit extended from the frenzy was constantly causing cracks in the wings.
It looked like the wings would be torn apart in an instant, but it was just an optical illusion of shimmering aura.
[And it’s been a while since you’ve been there too. How did you become so weak? Mr. Mort is also very injured.]
Talaris raised his head.
She smiled at the relief of Murakan’s darkness.
I had just prepared for my death, but now I felt that the dark, huge dragon’s arms were the safest place in the world.
“You came at the perfect moment. How did Black Dragon oppa become so strong?”
[I just got back a little more of what I lost. And thanks to that, I don’t think the kid and I will lose you today.
]
50%.
The power of the past that he possessed at the time of the last battle he fought with Murakan during the Sword Emperor’s Crusade.
He could recognize Jin at a glance, as well as Talaris, who was not as sensitive to aura.
The fact that the current Murakan’s power is quite close to what it was in its heyday.
The crises he had overcome while representing Jin’s aura and Solderlet, who had finally reached 10 stars, were returning his old strength.
Murakan raised his wings again.
Talaris and Mort took no damage from the Black Cross, and Rosa’s expression twisted.
[The family’s old guardian dragon… I didn’t feel any sign of him coming.] This was
the reason Rosa was angry.
She felt the current battles in the Garden of Swords and the entire Calon area as if it were her own body.
However, the appearance of Murakan was not recognized at all. That meant that Murakan didn’t come from outside the Garden of Swords, but suddenly appeared from within.
[It seems that your understanding is still lacking, Rosa Runkandel.]
Rosa turned around and looked at Jin.
[You and your colleagues are so lucky, youngest. If you are in a moment of crisis like now, someone must have come to rescue you.]
Rosa does not know the full biography of Jin and her colleagues.
However, at every moment of crisis, they knew that they had overcome difficulties through the help of someone or each other.
There had never been anything like that in her runcandel.
No matter how long I waited, there was only hope that would not come back. Rosa did not bother to hide the miserable feeling that resulted from that fact.
[This mother… I’ll break that link.]
The blade of chaos stopped in the air and began to whirl again. The blades pushed the party even more ferociously than before, as if they had absorbed Rosa’s anger.
At the same time, part of Murakan’s body dispersed with aura and caught Talaris and Motte. He moved as fast as a hawk and as free as a ghost, approaching Jin in an instant.
Rosa sprayed her sword energy in all directions. Part of Murakan’s body, which had turned into smoke, was swept away, but it didn’t do much damage to him.
Murakan came, but the war situation was still overwhelming for Rosa.
Jin and Talaris Caio. All three of them were in no condition to fight properly.
And that wasn’t all.
Jin was reading his impatience without even having time to share his reunion greetings with Murakan.
“Are you sure you can’t fight properly?”
[It’s not like that, but I’m running out of time.]
After the end of the Sword Emperor’s Crusade, Murakan was serving as Solderlet’s substitute in place of Misha.
Even Misha, who had supervised Solderlet’s work before, didn’t know exactly what the contents were.
Since it is beyond mortal cognition, Misha and Murakan’s role is simply to maintain their ‘existence’ in the realm of Solderlet instead.
The cancellation of that retention poses a great threat to the world.
Murakan, in particular, was not as skilled as Misha and therefore had less time to be away.
Even more so when using such great power.
It was for this reason that Rosa did not recognize Murakan’s aura. It was as if Murakan was in the realm of the gods and manifested here without physical movement.
There was no time to elaborate.
[So we have to escape quickly. You can’t keep fighting anyway in your current state.]
In addition, the sealing of Elona Ziple was also a problem.
As Talaris’ internal injuries became serious, the area of sealing Misha had to bear also increased. Talaris had been concerned about the seal ever since Rosa struck him.
Jin nodded.
if you’re lucky
In Murakan’s view, it was the fact that Rosa’s power was not without limitations.
[You’re ignoring me too much, Murakan. Do you think you can get away with it?]
[Don’t be pretentious, Rosa Runcandel. It’s not just this side that can’t afford it, because my eyes can see a little area that mortals can’t see.] [
You’re talking arrogantly about a topic that has no answer but running away….]
Sugeuk-!
Rosa rushed in and cut the breath Murakan had just vomited out in half.
Aura awls leaping from all sides blocked her, but the frenzy stopped only after she bumped into Bradamante.
“I can feel your anger.”
Rosa continued her attack, but Murakan’s aura and Kaioh’s arrows limited her movement.
As Frenzy parried off Caio’s attack, an aura awl grazed Rosa’s forehead.
The horn on his forehead about half a finger was dug and black blood spattered.
Until now, the chaos that Rosa had emitted had been shown to be stable enough to look like an aura.
However, right after the Black Cross was intercepted by Murakan, her soul was in disorder. The color and power were changed inconsistently.
‘As Murakan said, there must be a limit to this infinite power. I don’t think the horns were damaged. Have you run out of media? Or… there might be some mental reason.’
Unlike Ron and Smarion before they went against their fate, they remain perfectly rational.
I thought that might be the key. I also remembered Rosa herself saying, ‘I haven’t succumbed to chaos yet’.
Anyway, the important thing now is escape. Even if the marriage period became unstable, it had no effect on her transcendent status.
Suaak-!
Rosa’s sword was relentlessly aiming at Talaris. Every time the frenzied swords and spirits collided, the whole sky opened and closed.
Murakan struggled to prevent the shock from reaching Talaris. I had to worry about the life of Talaris and the sealing of Elona until the time limit went by, so my stomach burned every second.
The battle was sticking.
That meant that Jin and the others were still at a disadvantage.
Even if there were restrictions on Rosa, Murakan’s forced return would surely be faster than that.
“The escape point is a forest about 150 li away, Black Dragon oppa. Can you break through there? There is a space-jumping flying ship.”
Talaris pointed her finger at the location of the red owl’s stash.
[It’s going to be a bit risky. Which one?]
If you amplify the aura more for breakthrough, the forced return will be faster.
Murakan raised his spirits without hesitation. It was always better than continuing a fixed battle. Even if the manifestation ends before reaching the escape point.
“Let me buy some time, Black Dragon Murakan. Escape with Brother Jin.”
The moment Kaio said that.
Suddenly, a voice came from the sky.
[Murakan! I will cover you!]
It was Orgal’s voice. In the sky, Kingelo’s first flagship Grenil was floating. While carrying an enormous thunderbolt.
Still other ships were in the distance. Orgal, who read the situation, opened the dimensional door and moved to the battlefield where the party was.
Of course, the marriage period also affected his ability to move in dimensions. However, since all of Calon’s marriage energies were concentrated on Rosa, the restrictions were lessened than before.
Murakan recognized that he was Orgal without Jin’s explanation.
A single point of thunderbolt was hitting Rosa.
At that moment, Murakan flew into the sky with Jin and Kaioh on his back. Rosa’s other sword energy pierced Grenil’s thunderbolt and surged after him.
It was the 5th secret technique, the light speed thrust. The swordsman left a huge cut on Murakan’s tail and the left wing of his back, but he continued forward regardless.
“Murakan are you okay!”
[Of course it’s fine, it just hurts. But it’s cheap compared to the price of saving you and the secret wife.]
Thanks to Grenil, as I didn’t amplify my powers, I had a bit of time to spare.
However, there was one factor that Murakan hadn’t calculated.
The fact that Ram Runkandel’s giant black ship was approaching. And Rosa was no longer visible where Grenil’s thunderbolt had disappeared.
She stood in front of Ram and watched the direction Murakan was going. Ram and her were no different from one body.
Ram reloaded the main gun incomparably faster than the first time. The mixed spirit that had darkened the sky was becoming more unstable.
“Sir Rosa, would you like to stop here?”
At the Prophet’s question, Rosa burst into laughter.
[Isn’t it what you always wanted to break my spirit?]
“Honestly, it’s because it’s a bit dangerous right now.”
Rosa silently accelerated the amplification of chaos, and Illina watched her profile with uneasy eyes.
