Chapter 312,
Chapter 95. Those Who Seek Her (2)
* * *
On March 21, 1799, Jin and Gilly Murakan were returning to the Garden of Swords after a long vacation.
All over again!
The hooves of the horses leading the Runkandel Steel Carriage resonated cheerfully. Jin was thinking about Valeria’s hideout that Misha had told him about, waving often to passers-by in Calon looking out of the carriage window.
‘Mamitra…’
Mamit, the city of outlaws.
Valeria had now settled there under the assumed name of Arya Owlhart.
-If you go to Mamit, there is an inn called Moonlight Well. It is a place where the chiefs of that den of human waste live, calling themselves kings.
-I once performed a mission there when I was a cadet. Is Arya Owlheart there?
-okay. You often use Mamit as a base. I even lived there when I was fourteen.
-This crazy 14-year-old human girl lived in a criminal den like that? It seems that Arya is definitely not an average person. Besides, if the captains stay at the inn, is Arya also staying there?
-Well, I haven’t looked into that in detail, but it’s true that he’s like a well-forged sword.
It was a conversation we had before leaving the tent of Misha’s tavern.
Jin smiled as he imagined his old master staying at Mamit.
‘I thought I’d be in Mamit by now. I remember how you described it as a more romantic city than you think.’
As Jin knew, Valeria lived there for two years.
That’s why, when I went out on a mission as Mamit as a cadet, I asked the tavern clerk if anyone used the name ‘Hister’.
‘There must be a reason why Master is holding Mamit as one of his bases. Aren’t you a person who moves without purpose…’
Jean and Valeria met when they were 25 and 23 and stayed together for about 3 years.
During that time, the two often had deep conversations and had many moments of peeking into each other’s inner world, but Jin did not exactly know all of Valeria’s actions.
‘I’ll meet my teacher 6 years earlier than in my previous life.’
I was curious.
What more can we learn about Valeria and whether we can be together like in the previous life.
Jin, who thought of Valeria for a moment, shook his head lightly.
The reunion is a story that only applies to him, and he thought that there would be nothing good if he had a sentimental mind before meeting her.
Jin took out two Reiki Orbs from his bosom. The first and second were distinguishable by size and color.
“It’s amazing, young man. That little bead was a recording device.”
Gilly looked at the Reiki Orb and said.
“If that Arya guy can restore the device, I’d really like to see it myself. Are you going straight to Mamit?”
“I’ll go right away. Unless there’s something I need to take care of right away in the Garden of Swords.”
The carriage stopped.
When the Guardian Knights opened the door, Petro came and greeted them. He had been waiting for Jin to return from the entrance of the Sword Garden.
“Petro.”
“How was your vacation, Bocchan?”
“I felt like I had a good rest after a long time. Have you been okay?”
“When the Bocchan is not around, all I have to do is organize simple paperwork and take care of the room. I had a good time.”
That’s what he said, but Petro had a busy day without a bird to open his eyes.
While Jin was away, he looked over Volta’s territory, consulted with Dino to manage articles about Jin, and invested the jockey funds allocated to Jin in various safety projects.
Above all, he was busy looking at the family situation on behalf of Jin.
As a result, Petro was able to find one singularity.
“Since the madam is absent, there is no need to report the return separately.”
“Where have you been?”
“I’m sorry, Bocchan. I couldn’t figure it out.”
Petro speaks while being conscious of the guardian knights near the wagon.
Jin immediately understood his words and headed to the room.
Entering the room, Petro opened his mouth.
“The young master has gone to the Gugoksaeseong Castle in Bement.”
auricularity.
The main building of the notorious ‘Ghost Corps’, the world’s largest and worst mercenary group along with the Black Kingdom.
Rosa had only one reason to be there at this point.
“You went to see Kelliac Ziple.”
There weren’t many places in the world where the heads of both families could meet unofficially while seeking each other’s safety.
Guigoksaeseong is a kind of neutral zone and has been used as a secret meeting place between Runkandel and Zipple since ancient times.
One of the reasons Ghost Corps was able to maintain a similar size while accepting far fewer requests than Black King’s was that it provided the main building as a conference hall and received a certain amount of support from both families every year.
“How did you know? It must have been top secret.”
“The head of the family door owes Lady Luna something. So I figured it out using that as an excuse.”
In other words, Petro consumed the only hand that could use the gatekeeper at will.
Originally, it was the right thing to report to Jin and do it, but Jin did not criticize and quietly waited for Petro’s next words.
It was because he thought there must be a reason why Petro acted like that.
And the basis for Petro’s judgment was Joshua.
“Recently, I received information that a reward for the second rider was discussed at the senior meeting. I don’t know the contents, but right after the award was decided, the madam looked for Guigoksaeseong. So, I decided that it must be something serious.”
“Didn’t you figure out exactly what the prize was for?”
“I’m sorry, Bocchan. I couldn’t figure it out.”
“No, good job. It seems clear that there is some causal relationship between those two facts.”
Jin immediately made this decision.
Joshua was up to something.
And the result is something unconventional enough that Rosa can directly propose a deal to Zipple.
Otherwise, there would be no reason for Rosa to suddenly find a ghost castle.
‘Barton Vichena. My mother wouldn’t have sought out Kelliac because of him. If that’s the case, I’d have met them before giving me the mission.’
What is Joshua’s achievement?
Petro used the door master to find out the top secret of the meeting between Rosa and Kelliac.
However, he could not figure out what Joshua’s merits and prizes were.
That meant that the achievement Joshua had made this time was more important than the secret meeting between the heads of both families.
As I was about to think about it, I heard the sound of footsteps outside.
“the youngest! Do you have the youngest!?”
gruff voice.
It was Jed.
As soon as Jin faced him, he swallowed a laugh inside.
‘It looks like you’ve succeeded in improving the decisive battle of Nakhwa.’
Jin and Petro Gilly bowed their heads.
“Uncle.”
“Shouldn’t you have talked to him and gone on vacation?”
“I didn’t know that my uncle would feel sorry for me.”
“I’m not sad, hmm! done. Without you, this uncle has been disgraced.”
“What happened?”
“Isn’t it that the damn backroom old people don’t believe this uncle’s words at all? hehe follow me Today is the time to press the noses of those old friends.”
It’s something I couldn’t have imagined when I was in the middle class.
Jin felt very friendly with Zed’s excited face.
“Yes, let’s go. Uncle.”
Like an excited boy, Jed took the lead and moved to the training ground.
Not knowing that his nephew finished the bill to use him as soon as he saw him.
Sreung!
As soon as we arrived at the training ground, Zed drew his sword.
“Now, take a look. This uncle has developed a decisive battle that will never fall short of the sword you showed me, the Myungwangsword Waterfall.”
“Uncle, before that, I have something to tell you.”
“What is it?”
“My thinking has changed a bit. For your uncle, just put your uncle’s name on the improved Nakhwa.”
Jed rolled his eyes.
“Why all of a sudden?”
“Suddenly, I felt that I didn’t want to show my abilities to other elders. If I show off what I have, they won’t approve of me anyway.”
“What are you talking about? This body has already finished talking to the old friends. When you return, I will prove that the family’s decisive battle has improved thanks to you, and I will give you a prize for it. Besides, I already told you about the 6th decisive battle lightning.”
“What do you mean by 6 decisive battle lightning? Could it be that the Fourth Horseman was telling the elders about my other sword?”
“You mean that’s the problem?”
Jin shook his head and sighed.
“Uncle, as a rider, I don’t have many cards to survive in this rugged family. It’s not enough to hide them well and use them one by one only at a crucial moment.”
“That… hmm. I guess you can think of it that way.”
“Besides, the elders don’t look at me favorably anyway, so I wonder if there is a need to share what I have with them.”
“But I am the youngest. Didn’t this uncle also have a thing called saving face? If you do not prove it, this uncle will be overcome with pride and lied.”
“Only the improvement of Nakhwa in the 4th decisive battle should be credited to Uncle. I’m not going to prove anything about the 6-decisive electric light. There will be no reason for me to unleash Myungwanggeom Falls in front of them.”
Jin’s stubborn attitude made Jed feel like his heart was choking for a moment.
I don’t understand why his attitude changed so suddenly, but thinking about it, it wasn’t wrong.
‘Did something happen on vacation? Why is this guy all of a sudden…?
A thought suddenly flashed through Jed’s mind.
‘This bastard wants something from me…!’
Come to think of it, it seemed that Jin was strangely raising the corner of his mouth.
“I am the youngest.”
“Yes, Uncle.”
“Do you want to make a deal with me?”
Then Jin shook his head. In a very openly sly manner.
“This damn bastard. say it right If what you want from me is a reasonable good, I will give it to you.”
“Yes, I will tell you. What on earth did my eldest brother, the 2nd rider, do to make my mother go to Guigoksaeseong?”
Jed’s eyes widened.
“what? How did you, who just returned, know that?”
“Please tell me.”
“If you don’t tell me, you’re going to throw this uncle’s face in the asshole.”
“I am also the rider of Runcandel. There was something so serious about my family, and I don’t want to be excluded.”
It’s ironic, but it wasn’t wrong this time either.
Jed sighed.
“I don’t know exactly what Joshua’s ball is, the youngest.”
“I’m sorry I asked too much. Let’s go back.”
When Jin bowed his head and turned around, Jed gritted his teeth.
“Hey hey. You bastard!”
“Yes Uncle?”
came over
Jin was confident and met Jed’s eyes.
“What I am saying now, you should never say carelessly anywhere.”
“I swear.”
“if.”
Have you ever heard of the Hester family?
Jin almost cleared his throat at Jed’s words behind him.
