84. Ember (1)
Returned from training.
At those words, those gathered in the Garden of Swords had to flinch as if lightning struck right in front of their noses.
Everyone’s eyes widened at the sight of this imposing wanted man.
The people watching Jin, so to speak, the pure-blood Runcandels and family members, including the elders, had never experienced a more shocking moment than now.
How could he be so confident? When he came to his feet on the subject of an order to kill both of the two giant families that divide the world into two halves.
Dare to arrest him saying where he is!
The elders and brothers wanted to work together like that.
Normally, it would certainly have been. But they all knew instinctively.
It means that you should never open your mouth before Shiron now.
Even Rosa, barely suppressing her surprise, looked at the atmosphere of Shiron.
And she naturally thought that Shiron would cut Jin.
Just like all the other purebloods think so.
Jin, who got off Murakan’s back, looked up at Shiron with his back straight.
Shiron also made eye contact with her youngest son.
No one could read the father and son’s intentions in the midst of the terrifying silence that made it difficult to even breathe.
As if there was nothing to fear in the world, Jin’s eyes were full of brilliance.
On the other hand, Shiron’s eyes are deep enough to make wrinkles stand out.
Those eyes hid the strong and passionate emotions that the giant Shiron experienced for the first time in his life.
It is the heart of a father looking at his grown-up son.
The joy that my son became the most special and strong man in the world and stood proudly in front of me in the end, and the certainty that it was not a delusion or delusion caused by expectations as a father.
I gave birth to thirteen children.
Luna was the only one who hugged her heart-wrenchingly. However, Luna finally gave up the throne against his expectations.
That’s how I passed Luna and looked at the eleven children like stones, and lastly, when Jin stood out, I saw a small ember.
And that ember has now turned into an uncontrollable fire demon, and it has become a single big fire, flying with the momentum to cover the garden of the sword here.
With the momentum to burn down all the sacred places of the sword demons, let this lukewarm grave of swords flare up again!
Great job.
Shiron’s brief and intense feelings did not reach others, including Jin.
A few seconds passed, and Jin, like Shiron, was immersed in a strange sensation.
Thousands of warriors and eleven brothers gathered nearby, but it was as if they were facing their father alone.
And among them, only Father Shiron Runkandell.
It felt like something I had to overcome.
Of course, there were many warriors stronger than Jin here. Luna Rosa, the Dark Knights, etc… However, if they are characters that you can inevitably overcome someday.
It wasn’t like my father.
It was not an inevitability, but a matter that required the will to go against fate.
‘I will transcend and transcend again.’
A rich man who each swallows a short story in his heart.
Shiron was the first to respond.
Sreureung…
He dismounted from his horse and drew a sword from his waist.
The same sword that Jin chose during the selection ceremony in both the past life and the present life. The pure white blade of Barisada, the beloved sword of Temar Runkandel, the first head of the family, soaked up the sunlight.
Eventually, as Shiron raised his energy, the students suddenly sat down on the floor.
It was because his legs were weak. Facing Shiron’s energy was impossible for the cadets.
The low-level Guardian Knights trembled and barely maintained their posture, and the Intermediate Guardian Knights also screamed inwardly to avoid being weighed down by the energy.
Dare to fall down in front of Shiron’s eyes was a privilege granted only to young cadets.
Except for the Tona brothers, the riders, the black knight, the executive knight, the senior guardian knight, and the elders, Rosa kept the same face as she did at the beginning.
Jin prepared to fight back with speculation to the fullest.
‘Here comes my father’s sword.’
You can get your father’s sword.
The confidence that I had in my heart after going to Lapla Rosa for the first time.
In fact, after 90,000 deaths, Jin gained the realization that he could block the death of half a sword, and he proved it to Vanessa Olsen, the former Black Knight.
What Shiron prepared now was obviously a sword of a different nature.
For example, it is not the usual light vertical or horizontal slashing, but a sword containing the weight of the achievements of the demigod Shiron Runkandel.
that.
Very slowly, at a leisurely pace that even a three-year-old child could perceive, so slowly that anyone could take a step lightly and avoid it.
It was falling toward Jin.
There was not even the sound of cutting the wind. Barisada just leaned downward like a sailboat slowly sinking.
However, who would dare to say that the sword is slow?
Even if you’re not a warrior who has reached the state, you can’t help but think of just one word when you see the sword that Shiron is spreading.
A realm that seems to be possible only with the power of the
Shinto god .
A ruthless sword that far deviated from common sense of man and the providence of nature.
Whoa….
When Barisada came two spans ahead, Jin took a deep breath.
Jin’s whole body was already wet with sweat. Every single piece of muscle was stretched and swollen, and all bones and blood were soaked with aura and hardened.
I couldn’t get this slow and ever-changing sword without raising all my strength.
Sreung-!
Sigmund’s pale blade slipped out of the scabbard. Condensed brain energy flowed into the blade.
Jin held Sigmund with both hands and raised the blade at an angle. To stop Barisada. The two swords will now touch after a few seconds.
Until the moment of clash came, those who gathered in the Garden of Swords had no choice but to think a lot.
‘jin…!’
Luna was worried about whether her youngest sister would survive.
‘…My father is confident that he will be able to receive your sword!’
Joshua trembled with an ominous feeling. The youngest, who returned as his nemesis, was sure to survive and put a knife to his throat.
Most of the brothers were like Joshua.
Yes, the youngest. Yes, the reserve jockey.
I came back here to challenge the throne of the sword, and I’m keeping my eyes open to pass through the last gate.
‘If you block this sword, all the deviations that the youngest has made will become lighter… Shiron, would you really have to plunge this Runkandel into the flames of chaos to clear your mind!’
Rosa Runkandel’s pupils narrowed.
She also cared for the youngest child she gave birth to with a stomachache. To the extent that it is considered to be the most excellent family tree in the next generation after Joshua.
If he had not committed the deviation, even if he had committed the deviation of spirit and magic, if he had not disclosed himself to the outside world, he would have surely made him the next family head after Joshua.
However, now that the deviation has been revealed to the world, it is necessary to abandon the youngest child for the sake of Runkandel. Rosa was sure.
‘…Even so, I can’t deny the judgment of the family head. The will of the head of the Runkandel family must absolutely be carried out, and must continue to do so.’
If you now question the judgment of the family head and shake this situation.
That means that the same thing could happen by someone else when Joshua became the head of the household. It means that the meaning of the family head’s absolute power is fading.
That’s why I tried to make Joshua the family head as soon as possible. Because Rosa believes that there is no successor better suited to guarding the huge sand castle called Runcandel.
No, because I believe that no one can replace Joshua.
‘There are many enemies. Runkandel’s future is dark and there is nowhere to retreat. But why do you want to go back…’
The moment Rosa bit her lower lip.
The blades of Barisada and Sigmund met.
Tok…
Iron collided with iron, making an extremely cautious sound as if an egg were cracking.
After finishing the action, Shiron did not withdraw the sword, and Jin raised his eyes, which had turned red due to bursting blood vessels.
Blood flowed from his ears and lips.
The energy contained in Barisada penetrated Jin’s body as if heat were being conducted. It felt like a tidal wave had spread through my veins, and the terrible sensation of breaking bones and organs continued.
Jin maintained his stance.
Shiron’s energy soon circulated around Jin’s body and spread to the ground.
Damn-!
In an instant, the earth’s axis shook and the ground he was standing on collapsed, opening his mouth helplessly.
Bright light soared endlessly from the open ground, as if an oil field had exploded, all of which were Shiron’s aura contained in Barisada.
Thunderbolts that glowed whitishly as if struggling in that surging aura proved it.
How desperately Jin fought against his father’s sword.
The fact that the youngest of Runkandel eventually withstood the sword that no one here could receive without being prepared.
The wave of aura that poured like a waterfall was slowly fading away.
Shiron focused her eyes on her son, who was still standing, and the black dragon glaring at her from behind.
‘It’s indeed a great guardian dragon.’
‘He’s a damn terrible father.’
Let the mixed impressions of Shiron and Murakan pass.
Kuhuk Jin lost his balance for a moment as he vomited a handful of black blood.
ah…!
At that moment, those who were close to the side of love for Jin, those close to the side of hostility, and those with curiosity all let out a sigh.
Because when you fall, it’s the end.
If he fell now, Jin’s name on the Runkandel kill list would not be erased.
“Ah!”
Jin, who managed to keep his body by driving his sword into the ground, let out a roar.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Jin pounded his chest with his fist like a madman and kept screaming. The garden of the sword was shaking at that desperate roar that he had no intention of ending like this.
Finally, Jin stood up again and faced Shiron.
It was literally a mess, but it seemed clear that he was holding on to a thread of consciousness.
Seeing that, Shiron smiled faintly for the first time.
It was only for a moment, but everyone nearby watched the smile clearly.
How many meanings does a smile have?
That a ‘magical swordsman’ named Jin passed the last gate to enter the Garden of Swords.
Shiron himself proclaimed it.
Luna almost cried out of her heart, and even those who were not close to Jin were about to sweep their hearts out inwardly.
As soon as he smiled, Shiron said in a dry voice.
“Send Jockey Gene Runkandel to the medic. As soon as I wake up, I will officially hold the flag bearer appointment ceremony.”
It was after Shiron finished speaking that Jin collapsed.
