Swordmaster’s Youngest Son Chapter 496

Chapter 496,

Chapter 138. Midnight Tower Keeper (2)

* * *

“The 2nd Mage Tower was also invaded by Runcandel and Kingelo. Is that all?”

The white-haired old man responded in a calm voice to the reporters who rushed over the transfer gateway.

It was Kelliac Ziple, the most powerful wizard of this era and the head of the world’s foremost family.

At the time when the drying yard was attacked, he was spending time on an uninhabited island in the West Sea where Beradin’s villa was located.

During the ‘Battle of the West Sea’ between Talaris, Mischa Octavia, and the Wraith, the uninhabited island was completely crumbled and disappeared.

“Moreover, Lady Sandra has sent all the troops from the 2nd Mage Tower. If you give me an order, I will go back and send Draka’s wizards to the 2nd Mage Tower immediately.”

Charuk Charuk…

Kelliac turned the pages without saying a word for a while. Then, as if he found an interesting passage somewhere, he uses his magic power to underline it and smiles.

“Don’t be too surprised by necessity.”

By the time Kelliac opened his mouth, the reporters felt their stomachs burning. Hansi is urgent.

However, Kelliac had foreseen from the beginning that outside forces could hit 2 mage towers along with the construction site.

I just wondered if I needed to prepare separately.

‘Hedo.’

It was because he was at the White Night Tower.

‘This will be an opportunity to test him once again.’

Ever since Hedo became Ziffle’s man, Kelliac has always wanted to test him.

It was not easy even for him to determine whether Hedo was truly loyal to Zipple.

“Send reinforcements only to the drying yard. In addition, since the capabilities of external forces have already been confirmed, further resource loss is meaningless. Save as much resources as possible.”

“Honorable name!”

The reporters all bowed their heads in unison and took a backward step, disappearing into the darkness.

Recalling the moment he first met Hedo a long time ago, Kelliac gazed quietly over the sea.

Ugh…!

Suddenly, Murakan covered his head with both hands. My back was bent as if an unbearable headache was coming over me.

Jin and Runcandel quickly surrounded Murakan and spread a protective shield. He had predicted from the moment Hedo appeared, but the tension after receiving the sword was incomparable to that before the battle began.

Needless to say, showing such a gap in front of a transcendent unmanned soldier like Hedo is fatal.

Luckily, he didn’t outwit Murakan.

it wasn’t that it wasn’t He didn’t show it, but Hedo was a little interested in what Murakan had just said.

‘This is the first time I’ve seen someone who speaks as if he knows the veil. Even Sir Shiron and the head of the household seemed to have no idea what this sword was.’

veil.

Such letters were engraved in small letters on the blade of a special longsword that Hedo had obtained by chance a long time ago.

It was unclear whether that was the name of the sword, the name of the blacksmith who made it, or the name of the person who used the sword.

I was curious about the identity of the longsword when I was young, looking for the pole of the sword against the waves of martial arts.

However, it didn’t take long for Hedo to know his identity, so he concluded that Veil was the name of the sword.

The reason Hedo didn’t take advantage of Murakan’s broken posture was that he waited for him to talk about the veil.

He was also confident.

Even if you take this much leeway, the result won’t change. It was in the same vein as the reason why Zipple said he would not send reinforcements to the 2nd Mage Tower. Kelliac knew he was here, so he must have been.

“Murakan.”

Calling in a low voice, Jin checked Murakan’s condition. He looked very distressed and confused.

‘It’s similar to the day he talked about Temar when I first met Kingelo’s leader in the old Otterium. I don’t know why, but Hedo’s sword is stimulating Murakan’s confused memories…!’

Unlike Jin, who knows that Murakan’s memory is imperfect and that any conflict caused by it can cause this problem.

The other runcandels didn’t know why. It was only embarrassing that the family’s guardian suddenly panicked in a desperate situation.

“Big!”

Murakan groaned again.

1 second 2 seconds 3 seconds…

For Runkandel, he felt the sense of crisis doubly amplifying with each passing second.

If Murakan doesn’t fight properly, Runkandel will most likely end up being captured or annihilated.

Jin made a decision.

‘This should go through like that time. Just like when I first met Kingelo’s leader when he was talking nonsense!’

Jjaeong bpagaak-!

Suddenly, a fierce blow sounded through the eardrums in the silent hall.

Jin had literally punched Murakan in the back of the head with all his strength and as fast as he could.

Jin acted based on his experience, but since the others did not know the circumstances, he had no choice but to think that Jin was crazy.

Murakan, who had been hit so hard on the back of the head, stood tall like an old tree for a while. It seemed to have hardened and become a stone statue.

However, his head was slightly bent in the direction Jin struck with his fist.

“the youngest. what is this?”

Difus said, barely clearing his trembling voice.

For a moment, I wondered if Murakan-nim had died.

Of course, that couldn’t be the case, but even if he died while standing, it wouldn’t be strange.

The direction the neck was bent was a bit ambiguous… It was just as dangerous to be hit by Jin’s powerful blow unprotected.

“Keew… Mr. It hurts terribly.”

Fortunately for Runkandels, after an eternity of seconds, Murakan finally uttered an annoyed voice.

“Are you awake?”

“Anyway, I’m… a chronic disease? Yes, it seems that the disease has been cured for a while. No matter how little you do, what will you do if you just beat this body like this?”

Dduduk! Pop! Murakan turned his head, loosened his neck joint, and continued talking behind his back.

“How many eyes do you have? Are you out of shape? shape! uh? Uh…”

Murakan, who had been speaking cheerfully, stumbled and lost his balance.

His mind returned, but there was one fact Jin was overlooking. When they used the same shock therapy in the old Otterium, Jin was in a state of exhaustion, and now he is up and running. I became stronger than ever before.

‘Baby crazy. Adjust your strength and hit me, little bastard! Goals resound and the world spins around. But what the hell is that guy’s sword? It seems to have had a close relationship with me. Trying to remember it makes my head explode.’

I’m curious to the point of going crazy.

For now, I had to focus on the fight. That is to save the contractor.

‘I don’t think that physical beauty doesn’t have enough posture to tell lies or use shallow moves. He must have said that reinforcements would not come.’

then.

It was time to put all my energy into it.

“Little.”

“uh.”

“Transform into your true form. Even if that physical beauty is an insignificant liar, if reinforcements come, leave me behind and escape. Got it?”

Jin nodded heavily.

I really had no intention of running away from Murakan, but it was better to say that I knew for now. Regardless of whether reinforcements come anyway, if Murakan doesn’t do his best, there will be no answer.

“…There are some parts that I don’t understand, but I’ll try to convince you that the operation time was necessary. Should I wait any longer?”

Expecting Murakan to talk about his sword, Hedo came to the conclusion that he didn’t need to be patient any longer.

“Young Heng is definitely the best of the guys I’ve ever seen in this era. But I am Murakan. A thousand years and the old tricks of the four masters’ families have faded their dignity, but Murakan is Murakan.”

Whoa…!

After he finished speaking, the shadow of Murakan grew larger.

Dispersing in black smoke, he transformed into the true form of a black dragon and darkly fluttered a pair of wings.

Kaaa!

At the sharp, melancholy roar that followed, Hedo adjusted his glasses with a gentle gesture.

“I will look forward to it.”

A black curtain spread out of nowhere, dyeing the ceiling black. The ferocious whirlpools of aura in it looked like the eyes of giants, but all of them were pointing towards Hedo.

Blue flames formed on Bradamante, who was wrapped in aura, and dazzling auras soared on Joshua and Dipus Jane’s swords.

The specter members also raised their mana, and Hedo took a deep breath.

The energy of the superhumans, which had begun to amplify, shook the air as if it would tear, and the entire tower vibrated uneasy and unpleasant.

Expansion before crash.

It was Hedo who broke the dangerous phenomenon first.

“hmm!”

Hedo’s longsword Veil, with a restrained spirit, was rushing into the chaotic landscape where spirits and auras were mixed with mana.

It was a simple stab.

It was also the perfect stab. The trajectory drawn by his longsword pierced the center of the entangled energies diagonally.

The target was Murakan.

It was a speed and distance that could never be avoided with a dragon’s huge body. Counterattacking with similar or stronger force or avoiding fatal injuries was almost the only response the dragon could usually choose.

But at that moment, Murakan once again turned into black smoke and was able to avoid Hedo’s sword technique by scattering his body.

At the same time, he even counterattacked with dozens of spirit vortices.

‘Kuu!’

It wasn’t that he wasn’t harmed at all. The level of kendo that Hedo achieved was sweeping away the particles of Murakan that had been scattered through the smoke, causing blows.

Hedo also showed the appearance of avoiding the attack this time by stepping on his feet instead of just receiving the attack with his body. It was because not only Murakan’s awl would fall, but also the venomous blows from the runcandels.

Also the result of Murakan dodging Hedo’s sting.

Hedo’s unstoppable swordsmanship, unstoppable by the scheduled defense and resistance, was attacking the specters who were stationed behind Runcandel.

Therefore, for the specters, it was truly heartbreaking and unfair, to the point of going crazy.
