Chapter 544,
Chapter 145. Omen (13)
“Patriarch!”
“My lord…!”
All the knights of Hiran got down on one knee at once.
A mighty enemy that they could not handle was lurking in front of them, but they all bowed their heads to Ron with their backs turned.
It should never be in an exhibition. However, the knights couldn’t help but express their faith and respect for him appearing in such a hopeless situation.
Because if he was there, even Kelliac Ziple would not be able to attack the Geomwangseong recklessly. The knights barely suppressed their burning emotions.
As Ron
moved forward, the knights stood up and returned to their stance. Even though he wasn’t loaded with energy, enemies and allies could hear his footsteps like their own heartbeat.
Jin bowed silently to him standing next to him, and Ron grabbed his shoulder once.
“I owe you again, Paul Gray Mick.”
Seeing Ron calling himself by a pseudonym, Jin smiled. For some reason, I felt as if I had become very close to an unsung giant named Lon Hi-Lan.
“I believe you will pay me back anytime.”
Don’t die, be sure to live and repay him. Ron burst out laughing after reading the inner meaning of Jin’s words.
“Lu Yan, the head of the Highlan Sword Saint.”
Then he found Luyan.
“Yes, Lord!”
“Answer me. Did you intend to accept Kelliac’s terms as acting commander-in-chief of the Imperial Palace?”
“Never.”
Lu Yan answered without hesitation.
She really had no intention of accepting Kelliac’s terms. That was betraying the Bamal Alliance that fought for Hilan, and Hilan humiliating themselves.
The reason why Emperor Geomseong was shaken by Kelliak’s words was only because of the fact that Jiple knew how to bring back Sogaju.
Ron nodded his head in satisfaction.
“Good job. And it held up great.”
Ruyan seemed to choke on Ron’s sincere evaluation.
Because he thought he hadn’t done anything.
Until Ron stood up, he said he couldn’t do anything against Kelliac’s Ziple. In the first round, nothing had made Sogaju so devastated. If it wasn’t for Jin, Hilan would have ended in an instant, and he was just filling up the numbers… Not only
Ruyan, but all the knights of Hilan had the same mind. If they had been more competent, it seemed that Emperor Geomseong wouldn’t have become so ridiculous.
“Knights of Hiran, those hearts are also mine. So, stop beating yourself up and accept the order of the guilty swordsman who is late.”
“…Just do whatever you order.”
“The leader of the Knights of the Dragon, Calmine Aita.”
“Tell me, my lord.”
Karmain replied while holding the sword with his left arm. Intuitively, he knew what order Ron would give.
“The Dragon Knights must immediately leave the Geomwangseong with Hiran and all the knights gathered for Hiran, except for the swordsmen.”
Carmine did not object to that order.
It was because it was clear that he and knights below the swordsman would not be of any help in the battle that was to take place from now on.
But even if the knights of Hiran were not needed for the current fight.
They were the people who must be there for ‘reconstruction’.
When Ron was unconscious, the reason they didn’t leave the castle even if it was dog death was because there was no future.
But now I can think of the future. We had to prepare for the future. Gaju needed people to welcome Sogaju when it returned.
“I will follow the command of the leader of the Knights of the Dragon, Calmine Aita.”
Suppressing his desperate desire to fight and die together, Carmine raised a sword to Ron.
“Lon High is…”
Keliac opened his mouth about then, narrowing his eyes.
“I didn’t know you would wake up. I thought you already went to hell.”
“I came back to see how well your brother and sons are doing.”
Kelliac’s phoenix Belot was showing fierce hostility from the moment Ron first appeared. Ron looked back and forth between Keliac and Bellot and stroked his beard.
“Maybe you’ll be able to go there soon, too, so you seem pretty excited. Unfortunately, I will not be able to accompany you because of the nature of your summoned body that cut off my neck and wings.”
Whoa!
Suddenly, Velot’s two wings swelled up. According to Kelliac’s will, he is trying to tie Geomwangseong to flame.
In an instant, the two wings, which became as large as the ship, wrapped around the Geomwangseong Fortress.
Even while wrapped around it, it spewed out fire without rest, and the wings that swelled seemed to melt the entire Geomwangseong at any moment.
“Do you think I would allow your knights to escape?”
Ron slowly pulled Rashid from his belt.
Slowly… The sound of Rashid’s blade coming out of the scabbard was especially chilling in the thick fire that filled his vision.
Rashid’s shining blade cut through the air once and created a silent wave.
Then, formless winds poured from the sword in all directions.
Tens of thousands of shapeless sword winds slowly began to push away Velot’s flames.
Bellott let out a roar, clamping his spread wings, but Ron never lost his composure even as the clash of powers raged madly.
At that moment, Kelliac was left with an ominous doubt.
‘Couldn’t it be that Ron crossed the wall…!’
Changsung.
The realm of transcendence and absolute permitted only to Shiron. For a moment, Kelliac was able to glimpse the area Shiron had reached from Ron.
Although the hand holding Rashid was so pale that it was unimaginable that the owner was the sword emperor due to a long struggle with illness and unconsciousness.
Her body became so thin that even her clothes couldn’t cover it all.
Now, the achievement of the sword emperor was revealing stronger light and dignity than ever before. To the extent that even Kelliac Ziple mistakenly thought that he was standing in the realm of Shiron!
‘No, Ron has not reached him… yet.’
Perhaps if he hadn’t experienced Chiron himself, Kelliac would have been convinced. Ron finally entered the land of creation.
It was only because Chiron existed in the world that Kelliac did not fall into fear and helplessness now.
Changseong is a state that only Shiron has proven, and Ron’s current power has not reached that proof.
Even so, a shudder soared through my body as if thunder were raging, and I felt a chill as if a blade had already been driven into my back.
Everyone, not just Kelliac, was in the same shock. The dragons and magicians of the fleet, Runcandel watching the situation from afar, and Talaris guarding Dante’s seal.
In particular, the phoenix Belot, who was competing directly with Ron, could not accept the fact that the enemy who had cut off his wings had become so strong.
[Kahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaak-!]
Eventually, the wings of Bellot, which wrapped around the Geomwangseong, opened wide and tore apart.
Bellot let out a groan and the flames from the torn wings fell to the ground like hailstones.
The strongest phoenix, summoned by the absolute magician, suffered the humiliation of having its wings ripped off by the same person once again.
Even Ron hadn’t swung his sword even once.
The fact that Ron pulled out his sword and showed his energy was like this.
Bellot repeatedly flinched and unfolded his smaller wings, madly revealing his resentment, and Kelliac felt an invisible sword wind brush his neck.
“…You’ve gotten stronger Ron Hiran.”
“I wasn’t just lying around and playing.”
“Is it the power of the white stone?”
“It is the power of Hiran that is defeating him.”
Jin paid attention to Ron’s meaningful words.
-This is a barrier that comes from rejecting chaos. Your friend Ron’s grandson is fighting chaos inside himself right now. So there is no reason for me to fulfill my mission just yet.
Dante’s inner war with chaos began after he took possession of the white stone that Ron had been holding by following the voice of the white stone.
Of course, it was Lon Hilan who had been fighting the chaos of the white stone until then.
Ron achieved a new level through that fierce and terrible long fight.
The power of Hiran who ‘beats him down’.
What that word meant was no different.
‘The chaos of the white stones seduced Dante, unable to overcome Sir Ron. Or he was defeated by Lord Lorne and moved to Dante.’
I had an expectation that maybe Dante could also win the fight against the white stone like Ron. The expectation that a friend would be able to shake off him and come back.
“If I lose the fight against you anyway, my knights who retreated will eventually die. So why don’t you try to beat me somehow and just let my knights go? I think it will look better that way when historians later record this fight.”
Kelliac didn’t show any signs of Ron’s provocation.
“It’s a record of history… He’s telling an interesting story. It will be recorded according to the will of the winner anyway. That way, if your side is on your side, I won’t interfere.”
“Today is the first time we can talk since we met.”
Kelliak shook Hroti, erasing the seal of fire in the air.
“Knights!”
Ron turned around and looked at the knights of Hiran who were still facing him and shouted. A loud voice shook the sky.
Then the knights sworded in unison and gnashed their teeth. to hold back the tears.
“This body is Ron High, the lord of the Dark Yellow Castle.”
Ron also slowly raised his sword towards the knights.
It was not to accept the example of his subordinates as the lord of the sword castle, but as a late sinner and a lower person to those who did not betray Hiran in the end.
“I express my sincere gratitude and respect to all of you who are leaving Hailan for Hailan.”
Enduring more pain than having their bones cut and their skin peeling off, all of the knights of Hiran were able to hold back their tears.
I was able to endure it because if I cried now, it would really be the last time.
When Karmain lowered his sword, the knights followed him, and Ron continued to maintain his sword.
“…Hairan! Everyone will come out and follow the dragon knights… I will retire.”
It wasn’t until after all the knights retreated under Karmain’s command and their backs passed through the collapsed cliff beyond the back gate and disappeared into an invisible place.
Ron loosened his sword and looked back at the battlefield. A desolate battlefield full of enemies.
