Chapter 349 Chapter
107. Kingelo’s Visit (1)
City Calon.
Residents were watching a group of people walking down the street with curious eyes. They were looking at ten beastmen and two humans.
They were Berakt, the warriors of the White Wolves, and Vishkel and Margiela.
In Kalon, it was common to see knights in armor running around in groups of five to hundreds. It was a landscape that the beastmen could hardly see walking.
The one that stood out by far was Berakt.
Just by walking, he felt a sense of intimidation, as if the fort was moving or a huge sailboat was sailing.
In any other city, upon seeing Berakt, the inhabitants would have shuddered with anxiety and fear, even if they had not sinned against him.
But this was Calon.
The heart of Hufester and the home of Runcandel.
The inhabitants of Calon were not afraid of outsiders. The city of Calon was literally the safest city in the world.
No titans, no foes, no monsters could run rampage inside Calon. It was only allowed for those who belonged to Runkandel to freely draw swords, fight, and win or lose here.
“Stop.”
When Berakt’s group reached the road leading to the Garden of Swords, the Guardian Knight guarding the place spoke in a low voice.
It was a truly disrespectful voice from the perspective of the white wolf warriors. No human would dare to speak so high-handedly to the warriors of the White Wrangler.
So, just as the white wolf warriors were about to growl, Berakt quietly revealed his condensed energy. It was an order to be quiet.
“Why didn’t you tell me in advance about your plan to visit?”
“On the way to see an old friend, I thought I didn’t need that.”
Berakt calmly answers the Guardian Knight’s question.
“I’ll check if it’s okay to be hospitalized, so wait.”
The level of the knight who maintained a high-handed attitude until the end was 7 stars.
It’s a great level by general standards, but it’s a level that can’t be a fight with anyone he leads, let alone Berakt.
Even so, the reason why he was proud of being a Guardian Knight was because of his pride as Runkandel.
Even if the opponent was a huge tycoon like now, there was a belief that if he lost his life due to disrespect, the opponent would never be able to leave this city alive. Even if it wasn’t Berakt, it was Kelliac Ziple.
After a while, the soldiers brought the answer and informed the Guardian Knight.
“Hospitalization permitted.”
The White Rang warriors wanted to tear him to pieces right away, but Berakt didn’t seem to be offended at all.
Rather, he was praising the Guardian Knight inwardly.
“I’ve been thinking about it for a long time, but it seems that the least useful humans are all gathered in Runkandel.”
“Runkandel knights have spirit, Mr. Berakt.”
“hmm! Of course, the best among them is our vice-captain.”
Berakt’s humiliation did not end there.
Even after entering the Garden of Swords, no one came out to meet them. Because of this, they had no choice but to stand in the courtyard for a while.
“You are doing too much. Daejeon Commander, no matter how suddenly we came. Do I have to remain silent after being humiliated like this?”
“What if I don’t stay still?”
“Go back. I didn’t mean to talk to humans in the first place.”
Then Berakt shook his head and Vishkel spoke on his behalf.
“From our point of view, this kind of treatment is a shame, but Runkandel will be very offended that we came here without a word. This is no different than hospitality for Runkandel, so please stay still.”
As if satisfied with what Vishkel explained instead, Berakt grinned.
‘As expected, there is no human like our vice-captain.’
After a long time, it was the 30 execution knights and Rosa Runcandel who came out into the garden again.
“Being old friends, I didn’t know we were like that. Berakt Sydricker.”
“Long time no see Rosa.”
Rosa fought quite a few duels with Berakt in her youth. Victory and defeat were tied, and whenever there was a fight, both men suffered serious injuries.
The reason we didn’t end each other’s lives each time was because we didn’t want a useless all-out war between the beastmen and Runkandel.
“It’s not like I came here to mix swords without forgetting my childhood days. What happened without contact?”
“I have something to tell your children, something to receive, and something to offer.”
“Is it about the youngest?”
“Yes.”
“Come in. Let’s talk inside.”
Rosa sent someone to find Jin.
However, he did not ask them to come straight into the drawing room where Berakt was.
(When you are clear about what Berakt is trying to tell you, what he is offering you, and what he will receive from you, and when you come to the conclusion that it will benefit Runkandel when you face him, then come to the drawing room.) Rosa’s note from the servant says
that it was written
‘They suddenly came and said they have something to tell me and something to offer.’
What are you up to?
‘Besides, according to the servant’s report, Vishkel and Margiela also came together.’
Bishkel, who became the new head of the Ivliano family when Jin started his life as a reserve horseman.
Jin naturally thought that it was highly likely that the reason why Bishkel was in Kingelo’s executive was for the revival of the Ibliano family.
It was because the Eveliano family had a high reputation as the representative swordsmanship family of Hugh Fester.
‘For that, you wouldn’t have to do anything to dislike Runkandel. To visit the Garden of Swords with Kingelo’s tycoon without even asking for a visit. It means that Bishkel’s purpose was beyond my expectations.’
Or finished weighing between Runcandel and Kingelo.
In any case, for now, it was important to know the purpose of Berakt’s visit.
What to tell, what to receive, and what to offer. It wasn’t too difficult to infer two of them.
‘What I will receive will be the compass or the debt for the last watchman raid. Other than that, there’s nothing Kingelo could ask of me. What I want to offer to you is…’
Alliance.
Jin judged that Kingelo would offer him an alliance.
‘Even during the Seongguk incident and when rescuing small prisoners not too long ago. Kingelo has always been kind to me. I steal their compass, destroy the Dark Magic Society, etc. Even though we’ve never served amicably.’
There is no favor in the world without reason. There must have been a clear reason why Kingelo kept showing favor to Jin.
This is because the alliance with Zipple has been broken.
It was Jin who contributed the most to destroying the alliance. The destruction of the demon stone and the capture of the compass destroyed the trust between the two forces.
It was an alliance that would break someday anyway, but Jin accelerated the timing.
In the process, Ziple suffered only one-sided losses, while Kingelo gained his own harvest.
Besides, Barmal Gene Runcandel, who had appeared like a comet, was constantly feeding Ziffle, so Kingelo had no choice but to think of an alliance proposal.
Kingelo forges a one-half alliance with an individual named Jin, later when Jin sits on the family throne. If we move towards full alliance with the huge power called Runcandel.
It was concluded that the great work could be completed easily.
‘What are you going to tell me? Information about Zipple?’
There was only one thing that immediately came to mind. But I had no idea what kind of information it might be.
When Kingelo’s purpose is clear, and when you reach the conclusion that the meeting between you and Berakt is beneficial to Runkandel, come to the drawing room…
Jin examines the contents of the note again.
It didn’t take long to finish the calculations.
“Murakan.”
“uh.”
“Let’s go to the drawing room.”
“Eh? me too?”
Murakan was chatting with Gilly without thinking while Jin was thinking about receiving Rosa’s note.
“okay. Kingelo is likely to offer me an alliance, but you’d better go with me.”
“why? Are you afraid that Berakt might start a riot?”
“It can’t be. It’s just that I need to tell my mother that the 12th Horseman, Gene Runkandel, and Solderlet’s contractor, Gene Runkandel, are different.”
“Then I will pretend to be a cat. It’s annoying to have to mix a few words with them when I’m in human form.”
“Do it.”
Fung Nyaang! The transformed Murakan climbed onto Jin’s shoulder.
“It’s the 12th base.”
“Come in.”
Upon entering the condensation theory, Rosa and a group of knights, Berakt, were seen.
Actually, Rosa and Berakt had calm faces, but tension flowed between the knights and the beasts. In the middle of the day that their faces are going to go to the middle of the day.
Among them, Margiela, who was smiling brightly, stood out the most.
“I heard you found me. Sir Berakt Sidriker, the Great Warrior of the White Wolves.”
“Yes. Are we old?”
“It’s a first meeting.”
When Jin spoke calmly, Berakt burst into laughter.
“I want to talk to you alone, but I don’t think my old friend will allow that. So don’t just be direct.”
“yes. He said he had something to tell me, something to receive, and something to offer.”
“First, about the offer. Join Kingelo.”
Sreung Sreung!
As soon as Berakt finished speaking, the execution knights pulled out their swords.
The White Rang warriors were therefore unable to draw their weapons. It was because they didn’t know that even though the blood was boiling, it would lead to catastrophe.
hit it
If Rosa said just one word like that, the warriors of Berakt and Kingelo wouldn’t be able to return to this land alive.
In the midst of a moment of silence, Jin shrugged.
“I see.”
At those words, the eyebrows of the execution knights flinched, and Jin immediately continued to talk behind his back.
“I will join if given the position of general manager.”
“Hahaha!”
When Berakt burst into laughter, an intense vibration arose inside the drawing room.
“A thing is a thing. It is certain that it was born from the belly of Rosa Runkandel.”
“I will take it as a compliment.”
“But when I received that offer, why did you answer like that? Did you really intend to give up your position as the 12th Horseman of Runkandel and join Kingelo?”
“Personally, it’s not a very satisfying development, but it feels like a good choice for the family. As long as Kingelo has emerged as a giant force rather than a third-rate terrorist group, it would be possible to destroy Zipple by joining forces with Runcandel.”
It was a lie, of course. No matter what offer they made, Jin had no intention of joining Kingelo.
“It’s too bad. I can even give you the position of vice-captain, so if you change your mind, feel free to contact me.”
From those words, Jin could read one of Kingelo’s exact intentions.
‘This is a warning to my mother. If Runcandel over-checks me, they are ready to take me out to Kingelo at any time under unconventional conditions.’
For Jin, it was as if he had obtained an insurance policy by staying still. It’s an insurance that will never be used, but Rosa will have no choice but to think a little more about how to deal with Jin.
“What can you tell me?”
That moment.
Just like the Seongguk incident, Jin was able to confirm that Margiela was talking with her mouth open again.
‘I’ll let you know, Sir Jin.’
While Rosa and dozens of execution knights were watching, what did she dare to express her intentions with her mouth? Perhaps she is the only one in the world.
