Chapter 1029
Episode 247 Laprarosa Liberation War (17)
Quaaaa…!
Immediately after Jin spoke, the transparent wall on one side of the passage collapsed and black energy suddenly poured out.
It was marriage. Jin and Murakan immediately swung their swords and wings to push away the exploded soul energy, but were overcome by a strange sense of discomfort.
[Kid, this….]
[It’s not Lokia’s soul, Murakan.]
[As expected, right? Oh, what kind of guy is this? There’s no way other guys using Honki would have broken in here without our knowledge.] It
was just as he said. There was no enemy that could break through the brain energy of the Emperor’s Reign Sword that was covering the battlefield the whole time and enter through the crack without Jin’s knowledge.
Even Lokia, who had a chance, was tied up by Jin himself.
[Is this a witch’s marriage? Hmm, the purity is too low to look like that, but it’s not that threatening. Even the small things related to marriage are of better purity than this.]
[Perhaps that’s why they belong to witches even more. Or, Solderet’s aura has faded.]
[What? Solderet?]
Jin suddenly had that thought.
Perhaps the spiritual energy that escaped from the wall of the current dimension may be the spiritual energy that Solderet used to transport the Netherworld to this subspace.
[This means that it could be a by-product of the witch interfering with Solderet when he saved the Netherworld. Srivi, Masalun, Karmash. Because in this marriage, the energy of those three people is not reflected at all.]
[Hmm, after hearing it, it might be so. If that’s true, it could be that it wasn’t Solderet that created this dimension in the first place, but a witch.] [
That’s also true.]
Solderet, and the witch Heluram.
Jin did not know exactly the relationship between the two transcendents. All I knew for sure was that spiritual energy and soul energy clearly had something in common, and when reached to their peak, they had almost similar properties.
As they went through all kinds of trials and events after returning, Jin felt that they had some kind of special relationship.
[Murakan, do you remember anything else about Solderet, the witch, and Lokia?]
Murakan shook his head.
[doesn’t exist. You saw my final moments in K. Tam’s painting, right? I don’t even know how I found the witch in the Black Sea back then… Well, Lokia’s new face was strangely familiar.] The
face they saw this time was completely different from the one a thousand years ago.
[I look familiar too. Now that I think about it, it’s because he resembles Temar.]
[Oh, that’s right! Why does that bastard have a face that resembles Temar? With the ability I have now, I would be able to maintain my face as much as I want. You’ll look younger than Talaris. Besides, it’s not exactly Temar, and it has a similar face? Anyway, he has bad taste.]
[…Child of Temar. Isn’t that the face?]
Murakan stopped his wings.
[uh…? Child?]
Murakan was shocked at himself. Since losing the war a thousand years ago, Temar’s bloodline has never been cut off, but for some reason I’ve never thought about it like that. The idea that Temar gave birth to a child.
[Oh, you have a point. Who did you have the baby with!? There must have been one or two women who liked that guy… Ai, surely it’s not Lokia!?]
[Do you think that’s a possibility? It’s a pretty terrible story.]
[No, no. Le Et… If you look at the atmosphere at the time, Le Et is the most likely. Because everyone thought that Leet’s unrequited love would come to fruition someday. However, Leet was still trapped in that tomb… and who the heck…]
Murakan’s eyes widened as if something occurred to him.
[Lucy… It’s Lucy. Lucy Runkandel. After the war, the child born to Temar and Lucy continued the family.]
Lucy Runkandel.
She was the last remaining teenage knight whom Jin had never met in person, either in reality or in the records.
‘…If the face Lokia showed this time is really the child of Temar and Sir Lucy. ‘Lokia may have been using him ever since.’
After liberating La Prarosa, it was a truth that had to be discovered by tracking down Lokia. We have found clues to Lokia’s true identity and hiding place.
Murakan seemed to be in great shock, and for a while he said the names of Temar and Lucy alternately.
[These kids… without even telling me. How could you do this to me?]
[The family situation was dark at the time. Above all, it is not certain information.]
[No, I think it is certain. The feeling of betrayal soars! I also wanted a nephew! Hey, kid. If you ever get married to a history buff and have children, you’ll definitely let me know…]
[What are you talking about all of a sudden? It’s so loud. Let’s go quickly, there is still a lot of work to do even after rescuing La Prarosa’s brothers.]
Now, we have only destroyed one force, the enemy tribe. Zipple, Kinzelo, the Sun God, Ganesto, and maybe even witch-like transcendents.
All of them had to be eliminated from the world. In order to do that, the strength of the brothers was absolutely necessary, and in particular, Ban had to be safe.
If all the wars were ended with such difficulty each time, it would be impossible to keep up with the speed of the enemies. They prepare schemes and try to do things in special ways that Jin doesn’t know about.
The dimensional storm was getting stronger.
Murakan formed a thick protective shield with his spiritual energy, and Jin continued to rotate the spiritual energy of the Emperor’s Reign Sword. Even if the two of them hadn’t pushed the dimensional storm together, the two of them wouldn’t have been able to achieve this much speed.
The hardships that Jin and Murakan were going through now were similar to what a beginner with no equipment would have to do climbing a steep snowy mountain.
Neither of them had ever crossed over into subspace like this, and the shock of the dimensional storm was enough to make the battle with the previous enemies seem cute.
Whoo, whoo….
Jin and Murakan took a deep breath and read Ban’s encephalocele. Also, Jin was conserving his strength. This was the reason why the Myeongwang Reign Sword had to be maintained properly when any unfortunate incident occurred.
Kwa-duk, quasi-jit!
Walls were collapsing more frequently. Cloudy and crude soul energy was still pouring out of it, but sometimes the soul energy that was clearly left behind by Lokia began to appear.
It was the trace of a curse left by Lokia, the witch’s pool. The curse heading towards La Prarosa was torn by Ban’s Mysterious King’s Sword and was lodged like crystals throughout the passage.
It meant that he was getting closer to the encephalocele caused by Ban.
[Brothers! Can you hear my voice?]
Jin shouted. The voice was shattered by the dimensional storm and could not travel far, but Jin continued to call his brothers regardless.
Crunch, crack!
Now, with every few steps, Murakan’s shield was being dented.
[Even quite a few dragons will be lumped into a lump of flesh the size of a fist in an instant. As I see that the pressure increases rapidly as it gets closer to the encephalocele, it seems that the pressure inside La Prarosa is at least several times this high.]
Jin also started to get a little worried.
We also felt that it was a good thing we came. If I had waited outside for the release device to activate, I would have had to endure this pain only with my class and my brothers.
[Brothers, I am here!]
How much time has passed?
Time in subspace often flows differently from royalties. Maybe hours had already passed, or maybe only a few seconds had passed within La Prarosa.
Soon, Jin was about to call his brothers again.
Suddenly, Van’s encephalocele, which had been spreading from afar, began to subside rapidly.
[Damn it! No way?]
In the two or three seconds that Murakan shouted, Ban’s encephalocele was completely extinguished. Jin didn’t answer, but brought up his senses.
‘…Brother Ban’s Emperor Reign Sword has not been lifted!’
Ban’s huge brain machine did not disappear, but instantly converged into one object.
Jin decided it was a sword. And there was only one reason why the entire brain power of the Emperor’s Reign Sword would be written on the blade.
[Murakan, avoid! Must be avoided!]
[Uh! I’m avoiding it!]
Jin and Murakan split to the left and right, forming a protective shield.
A moment later, a ray of blue light flew to exactly where they were standing. Even Jin and Murakan had no answer if they were hit with a normal attack, and even if they blocked it, it was bound to be fatal within this dimensional storm.
It was only natural that the final chapter of the Myeongwang Reign Sword was condensed into one sword. The dimensional crack was cracking along the blue trail left by the sword.
And the two were able to recognize that the soul energy was included in the sword energy. It was an intense soul energy that I had never seen even when directly dealing with Lokia outside the Great Desert.
[marriageable age…! Your brother is not corrupted, is he? Please say no.]
There was no need for Jin to answer.
The reason why there is soul energy mixed in the Myeongwang Reign Sword is because Ban has bound the curse so far. And the reason Ban fired his sword now was to open the way.
“Brother Jin! Are you really Brother Jin!?”
A familiar voice was heard.
Tantel and Jin were brothers who met each other as guides whenever they visited La Prarosa.
[Brothers Tantel!]
Tantel had a thin face that looked as if he would collapse at any moment, and his entire body was full of black scars stained with spirit.
[are you okay!? As for the other brothers…!]
“I’m just a little injured, but I’m okay, so don’t worry, come in here quickly! “Brother Van said he wouldn’t be able to maintain the passage for long!”
By the time the words were finished, Jin and Murakan had already reached Tantel’s side. He had just entered the huge crack he had escaped from.
The rift was about to close. If the crack closes like this, Jin will enter Laprassa having lost all of the brain power of the Emperor’s Reign Sword.
[Little! I’ll hold on to it a little longer, so quickly retrieve the brain energy!]
Fortunately, Jin didn’t come here alone. Murakan was spreading his two pairs of wings and pouring spiritual energy into the crack.
[It was a good thing I brought you here, Murakan.]
Jin immediately closed his eyes and concentrated his mind. Jin’s encephalocele quickly rushed through the crack.
Eventually, the moment the brain power of the Emperor’s Reign Sword was completely recovered, Murakan took a deep breath and nodded.
[If you know, go back and don’t interfere with playing with Strawberry Pie.]
The rift closed. Jin helped Tantel, who was about to fall, and raised his head to look ahead.
The scenery of La Prarosa, the brothers’ hometown, was unfolding.
