Chapter 866
Chapter 216. The first golden ship (2)
[Please introduce me to that friend too. Come to think of it, I don’t remember having a proper conversation with your phoenix after joining the alliance. He must be a great immortal.]
“I understand, Miss Ameris.”
To summon Tess, we headed to the underground training ground of Tikan Palace. When the palace was a mansion, it was this training ground where Tess was first summoned.
“Suddenly, memories of being beaten up by Alisa-sama come to mind. I defeated number 109 and summoned Tess during the last sparring and won.”
Murakan and Quikantel recalled the day they first saw Tess, summoned by Jin. So shocked at the time, the two dragons even dropped their forks during a celebration party for Jin.
Hwaaak-!
Blue flowers were spread all over the arena, and a summoning circle was formed. When Tess appeared in the midst of it, Quikantel bowed her head.
“Meet the master of the flame world.”
As always, Murakan stood tall with his head stiff for no reason, and he stood on his right leg and was pecked by Tess’s beak.
“Ah, how long are you going to torment me like this! Still, I’m Murakan, but this kind of treatment every time is a bit ugh! sick! Stop cursing, really!”
[It’s something I feel every time… There are many times when Jin’s four guardian dragons seem to lack intelligence. Maybe because the child was born too strong, he didn’t have enough opportunities to think.]
“Murakan would have been the same even if he was born weak. Maybe.”
[Hmm, that’s right. Well, your eldest sister was also strong from birth, and she has a bit of a lack of awareness, but she’s not like Murakan.] As
Ameris approached, Tess, who had been pecking at Murakan diligently, turned her head.
[Nice to meet you, Tess. You look like a very old immortal. I was in charge of protecting the vigilance after the death of Ameris, the sun god.]
Murakan naturally expected Tess to be angry. Among the gods he knew, there was no existence that could be safely spoken to Tess like this.
Quikantel, who knew his temper, was a bit nervous, but Tess unexpectedly nodded and responded favorably.
“What! Nice to meet you!? Ivoshow Tess Now this man is much weaker than me! Besides, respect? Aren’t you such a gentleman?”
[The Murakan adults are talking, but be quiet.]
Tess was speaking in a spiritual language, so Jin couldn’t hear him, but he could tell roughly what kind of conversation was going on.
[Ah… Come to think of it, Jin can’t hear this kind of spiritual conversation. Tess, have you ever had a direct conversation with Jin? Has this idiot or Quikantel always been some sort of interpreter?]
Tess nodded again.
[No matter how strict the law of separation is, it’s impossible for an immortal like you to not even have a chat with a contractor. Coincidentally, some small powers have returned thanks to Valeria’s recovery of some of this body’s memories not too long ago, so please help me.]
Ameris began to whisper something incomprehensible. like casting a spell.
When the spell ended, Jin heard Tess speak for the first time.
[Hoh… You’re so magical, Ameris. The power to replace spiritual language with human voice like this.]
Jin couldn’t help but stare at Tess in surprise. Murakan and Quikantel had the same reaction.
“Tess is talking…!?”
[It’s the first time we’ve had direct communication like this, Jin. It’s a very rare experience thanks to Ameris.]
“We’ve always been together since we were reserve jockeys, but having a conversation like this feels awkward.”
[Sounds cute.]
“No, even a kid speaks plainly, so why can’t I?”
[Anyway, this bastard Murakan has no answer. Even if I get hit every time, I have no intention of fixing this bastard. Are you doing this because you’re not a flame type? If you come to the flame world and look around, I’m crazy. Do you know that messing around like this can really turn you down? What if you are Murakan? what’s going on Jin is my precious contractor and you are with me.]
Puck! Tess clenched her wings like a fist and punched Murakan. As Murakan always said, ‘Stop swearing’, Tess was quite harsh.
Although the image he had expected was somewhat broken, Jin felt good about being able to talk with Tess in the future.
[Hmm, there’s been a bit of a stir over this damn thing, Ameris. It didn’t look good.]
[I’m fine, but I’m rather relieved.]
[Ameris must be worried a lot these days. Jito breaks the order of separation and goes up on the ground and goes on a wild rampage … I’m going to quietly live underground, why do I keep getting greedy for the ground?]
there would be no work That’s why Jin summoned you anyway. Is it a flame system, or does your realm also exist underground?]
[No. If my land was in the underworld, Jito wouldn’t have been able to go this far… Ho-oh!]
Tess was startled and suddenly showed a happy expression.
[As expected, the existence that protected the separation of the world. Originally, it was impossible to convey accurate information about my domain to royalties even using an interpreter.
] When I had nine heads, I could edit more things. I just didn’t do it because it wasn’t necessary and because it was dangerous.]
Jin recognized that Ameris was a particularly high-ranking being among immortals. Even Tess, who had slaughtered the gods of the middle ranks in a few breaths, could not escape the order of separation on her own.
[Yes, then where is your realm called the flame system?]
[It exists in the highest place in the sky.]
“Was the place we went to in the past the highest place in the sky? I thought it was just another dimension or subspace.”
[The end of the sky…? Oh no way Are you an immortal in charge of reincarnation?]
Tess nodded startled at those words.
It was because it was information that mortals should not know. However, since the only mortals in the training ground were Jin and Murakan Quikantel, and the world was in chaos, he decided that this would be fine.
[That’s right. To be eternal and immortal and to protect the bonds of reincarnation, that was the mission given to me after the death of the sun god. That’s why it has such great power.]
Likewise, this was also originally information that Tess herself could not solve for royalties. Jin listened reverently to the world’s greatest secrets.
[I’ve heard from solderlets and witches in the past that such immortals exist. There is a blocked sky that even they can’t climb anymore, and it’s full of fire. It was you… You had a burden as big as mine.]
Tess and Zito.
The two were the beings who governed the order called reincarnation or reincarnation and hell, respectively. When all living things die, they go to one of two realms, Tess or Jito.
Ameris explained this and looked at Jin.
“Then Tess and Zito are perfectly opposite beings.”
[Yes, Jin. Although I said it as if it were not a big deal, that is only a story assuming that I fought him in my territory with my own power. If Zito invades the ground with all his power back, you and your colleagues won’t be able to handle it.]
“Then, can’t Tess have more influence on the public life like Zito?”
[I’ll have to think about that in the future. Since Zito used a move that defies order, there must be a way for me too. However, it’s impossible for both Jito and me to regain full strength.]
[Even if Jito regains only part of his old power, it’s just a big problem. As you can see, I’ve lost a lot of power, Tess. If you can help our alliance, it will be of great help to you.]
[We will work hard to find a way. What immediately comes to mind is to incarnate through Jin’s body, just as it did in the old Otheriam… If you do that, Jin will die.] [It’s a
beautiful thing to die while protecting the world, but that’s an ending neither me nor my colleagues want. Also, even if you incarnate through Jin, it will not work for Jito, whose body itself has risen to the surface.]
[Probably so. I don’t want to admit it, but the essential character isn’t that different from me. And another thing that comes to mind… Jin. Haven’t you met Shnu recently?]
Jin nodded.
“We met.”
[His and my fire are at odds. However, since they are essentially the same fire, I think I might be able to manifest using him.] “Through the
power of Shenu…”
– Now, tell me what Shenu and Keliac want from me.
– Yes, Sir Jin. You two want Sir Jin to heal Sir Kelliac.
It reminded me of the conversation I had with the young fire dragon Pai on the day Shinu manifested in the past.
At that time, Jin heard about the Sun Gods and their purpose from Shinu.
‘Even though I refused Kelliac’s treatment, Shinu gave me various information because it was also necessary for him to stop the Sun God Church.’
Then, depending on what he thinks about Jinmagye and Jito, it means that a deal may be possible.
It was not an issue that could be immediately identified. The whereabouts of Shinu and Keliac were still unknown.
“First, prepare for the war with the Jinma World and find out information about Shinu, Tess. Shinu tried to make a deal with me, so maybe we could talk.”
Of course, the best result is not a deal, but a situation in which he has no choice but to follow Jin’s will after ‘subduing’ Shinu.
In the past, when Kellyak was the head of Zipple, it was a story that was possible enough now.
[It’s a story that your manifestation isn’t even a slight possibility.]
[That’s right, Ameris. Since he started making contracts with humans as a phoenix, not as a manager of reincarnation. The contractor I am most satisfied with is Jin. I have no intention of letting Jin die at Zito’s hands.]
Tess met Jin’s eyes.
[Don’t worry, keep moving forward, Jin. I will continue to protect you from now on.]
