Chapter 213. A harbinger of rift cataclysm (2)
“Ameris, is there any way to close the rift?”
“Look closely at the center of the crack, Jin.”
“…It’s cloudy, so it doesn’t stand out very well, but I can see something like a purple pattern.”
“It symbolizes Jito with a pattern that embodies the purple thorn flower of the realm of Jinma. In other words, this is Jito’s own magic. There aren’t many beings or means that can break his magic.”
At that, Jin pulled out Bradamante and wrapped himself in aura.
“Are you thinking of cutting that thing down with the spirit sword?”
“Yes, Miss Ameris. But… as soon as I made up my mind to cut through the rift, a strange feeling of incongruity soared.”
“It was an instinctive feeling. It is probably possible to cut through the rift with your spiritual sword. But you’ll take a huge hit. Putting you in a state where you need recuperation and treatment is very dangerous to the entire Barmal Union.”
Jin shrugged and shrugged. As Ameris said, Jin’s health was directly related to the defense power of the Barmal Alliance.
‘As I tried to cut through the rift… I got the feeling that something like Zito’s will was trying to trap me like a thorny bush. It might be able to break it, but as Ameris-sama said, it must have suffered a significant blow.’
Since you can feel this level of danger just by ‘acting to break the rift’, the power that Jito himself possesses cannot be measured.
“Only with the full power of creation or the power or power of the same level, you will be able to destroy the rift without too much trouble.”
“Heng, this Murakan, then at least one breath.”
“No, Murakan. You can also get hurt by provoking cracks. Although you have almost regained your old strength, aren’t you a perfect spearhead like back then?”
“Oh, you’re stabbing me where it hurts.”
It was Dante who felt the most helpless.
“It’s getting bitter. Even if I overdo it, I don’t think I’ll be able to cut through the cracks like you or Mr. Murakan.”
“I think you can too, Geomhwang. But he’ll be hurt a little more than me or the little guy.”
“Besides, this is the territory of the Empire… Are you saying it’s best to just leave it alone?”
“From the point of view of this body, you are already good enough. no he’s a great leader Letting go means not taking any action. Aren’t you going to evacuate your people living here from now on and give them a new home and work?”
“That’s right, Miss Ameris.”
“Even if the alliance’s most important forces, like you and Jin Murakan, take risks, the rifts to be cut should only be where more lives and values are at stake. Areas where the damage cannot be minimized simply by evacuating the population, as it is now. From now on, there will be countless cracks like this all over the world. Maybe new reports are already up.”
What if, out of resentment, the party used their powers to remove the cracks in Romp, and a bigger crack occurred in Tican or the old capital of the Empire?
Such lands could never solve the problem by evacuating people.
“Relocate all of Romp’s people to the old capital.”
Dante said to the bookkeeper who came with him.
“Okay, my lord.”
“Be sure to tell them that you are sorry for not being able to protect your place of life. Jinmagye Zipline Kinzelo… After all the wars are over, I will definitely create an empire where the people will never leave their lands behind.”
Ameris patted Dante’s shoulder as he glared at the crack with his teeth clenched.
“Don’t beat yourself up too much, Geomhwang. Although the four people who left Romp lost their land, no one died. It’s because you moved quickly. If we hadn’t managed to get here until something popped out of the rift, no one would have been alive. Or it would be the same even if I didn’t take appropriate measures like now.”
The inhabitants of Romp immediately began migrating under the control of the Meltador forces.
The party returned to Tikan and Hiran’s second castle and immediately declared a state of emergency throughout each faction and issued orders. It was an order to relocate as soon as a crack occurred.
Less than 10 days had passed since the first crack appeared in the Romp, but new reports of cracks were constantly coming up.
“This time, Balonso of the Principality of Kurano… The Principality of Kurano is already the second one.”
Tican was now saturated. In the first place, applications for migration to Tican were constantly pouring in from all over the world after the Gleeek War.
“As for the migration to each region, the king should select suitable regions and handle them.”
“I understand, Confucius.”
“How is the situation on the Zipple side?”
“According to an anonymous report, a metastasis rift is still forming in the Lutero Federation. Not long ago, there was a crushing defeat in a battle with the enemy tribe, and I’m assuming that it’s probably because Elona and Ziple were absent to deal with the rift.”
“Looks like you can’t easily remove the rift with the current demon stone. Please tell the unnamed side to detail the number of rifts in the Federation, if possible.”
It seemed as if a bomb that could explode at any moment was constantly growing on the ground. There have been no casualties due to cracks yet, and there are sufficient resources to support migrants.
It couldn’t continue like that. Both land and resources are limited, so one day they will run out.
‘It’s frustrating, I’m going crazy…’
As time passed, Jin realized how dangerous it was to try to cut through the cracks in the rope.
‘If I had been hurt while cutting the cracks in the romps then, I wouldn’t have been able to fight when people really needed me.’
The moment I thought about that, the communication device placed in the Tikan conference room resonated. It was a communication from the Runkandel Sword Garden.
Jin was overcome by an ominous intuition that what was to come was finally here.
{Sogaju.}
“Tell me, head butler.”
{A large-scale metastasis rift has occurred in Ciatello.}
Ciatello is one of the main cities of Hufester, and it is located in an area not far from ‘Kalon’, where the sword garden is located.
Of course, the residential population also belonged to the top of Hufester, and losing Ciatello meant giving away the base of the Demon Realm near the Garden of Swords.
“…Large-scale?”
{Yes, and it’s also quite different from most of the cracks being reported these days. Massive, as I said, it’s much bigger, and there’s a sort of shockwave constantly emanating from the rift. Fortunately, there were no major casualties as it was a crack that occurred in the outskirts, but the speed at which it spreads is unusual
. Jin gritted his teeth unconsciously.
“I will leave immediately.”
Jin, along with Murakan Ameris, immediately headed for the Red Owl’s departure area. At the departure area, there were Dr. Quaul and Valeria, who briefly returned to Tican this morning.
In addition, many parts of the Red Owl were dismantled.
“Oh Gin. Do we have to sortie right now?”
“What’s wrong with you? Dr. Quaul.”
“Have you forgotten why I came here this morning? The Red Owl has suffered a lot lately due to too many sorties. If not properly maintained, the power source would be blown away.”
“There is a massive rift in Ciatello right now. We have to go right away.”
“This damn ciatelloe? Maintenance is almost done. But it takes at least two hours to finish assembling the parts…”
“Can’t it be faster?”
“Two hours is the fastest speed that Valeria and I can achieve. If you go faster than that, you will get stuck somewhere in subspace while riding this.”
“I can’t help it, Jin. wait a munite. Or, I think it would be better to contact the Secret Palace and get help from the Sogoongju.”
As Valeria said, Jin immediately requested a communication from the Secret Palace.
{What Sogaju? i’m a fan Sogoongju is patrolling the West Sea with Mort right now… I see cracks are forming on this side one by one. what? Are you in a hurry? Massive cracks in Ciatello? What to do with this!? We’ll need some time to figure out the exact location of the Sogungju.}
Anger soared out of frustration. The more late he was, the greater the damage would be to Ciatello. I was going crazy imagining the deaths of ordinary people and the family knights who were trying to protect them.
[Sogaju First of all, I will continue to deliver the contents as soon as I receive a report from Ciatello. It’s only two hours, so don’t worry too much. First of all, we dispatched the Black Sword Chairman and the riders, so there shouldn’t be any major problems.]
Jin sat in front of the communication device and suppressed his nervousness.
Leed was also nervous. If, by the way, the Jin Demon camp is summoned in Siatello before Jin arrives, Hufester will have to start a war with the Jin Demon world immediately. Brothers Ballas and Mary Tona did not have the power to extinguish the rift.
‘Until now, I’ve never had anything summoned from a rift immediately after a rift was created, but… it doesn’t feel right for some reason. For some reason, I think that the Jinma World deliberately chose Ciatello to create a large-scale rift.’
If Jinmagye knew information about the geographical characteristics of Inse, Ciatello would have been an ideal place to occupy. It’s an area where you can hit the sword garden right from the moment the city of Jin Demon is summoned.
In the end, Bigung couldn’t find Siris and Mort for two hours.
{Sorry, Sogaju. I set off all kinds of signal flares, but I guess I couldn’t check it because Sogungju was patrolling far away areas in the West Sea.}
“It’s okay, top. If there is any other problem, immediately communicate with Tikan.”
A red owl was waiting at the sortie field after maintenance was completed. Quaul and Valeria were exhausted.
“You’ve worked hard, Dr. Quaul, Valeria. I will be back.”
When I activated the red owl, I arrived at Ciatello in an instant.
And the Great Rift in Ciatello was much bigger than Jin expected. Purple cracks were filling the outskirts of Ciatello, and the knights were fighting a battle with unknown purple ghosts.
“They are monsters that embody Jito’s will to open the rift. There are troublesome things…”
The moment Ameris explained that.
Jin was startled and looked through the rift on the other side where the knights were struggling. There were five people standing there.
“Why are you like that kid? Uh… Huh! It’s really been a while since that guy!?”
Murakan also belatedly confirmed them and screamed.
They were Luna and the former Dark Knights, who had just arrived in Inse and were heading to the Sword Garden.
“Sister Luna…!”
“Oh, the youngest!”
The moment Luna and the former Dark Knights looked up at the Red Owl.
Jin felt that his stuffy mind was washed away in an instant.
