Chapter 893 Chapter
223. Uncomfortable Encounters (4)
Three days have passed since Kelliac went to prison number 3 in Dokma Castle.
And the Barmal Union received a letter from a bar in the Mila Kingdom. A top-notch member-only tavern called ‘The Tabernacle’, it was one of Misha’s main hideouts.
“Oh… that’s amazing. He said he would establish a regular contact somewhere in the royalties, but I never thought he would use this place.”
It was none other than Tilias and Misool who sent the letter through the veil.
“under? How did you find that hideout? They’re crazy guys. My recovery is over now, so let’s go together.”
Jin and Murakan immediately rode the Red Owl and headed for Mila Kingdom.
“Are you here?”
After following the manager’s guidance and entering the inner room, Tilias and Missol stood up to greet the two of them. Tilias and Miso were enjoying the fine food of the tabernacle.
“Fortunately, it seems to have gone well without much trouble after returning. Tilias Misool.”
“It happened.”
“Inse’s food is really delicious. Do you live eating this kind of thing every day? Most of us process and eat souls that have fallen into hell. Next to him is the black dragon Murakan?”
“Why is this guy talking so fast? Yes, it is Murakan.”
“Nice to meet you, Murakan. I am Missol. You know, this is Tilias. I will formally greet you.”
“This time, most of the explanations will be done by Tilias… Misol, please understand.”
“Of course, Jinrunkandel.”
Jin sat down and looked at the two of them.
“How did you find this place?”
“I looked for general facilities that were the most difficult to access in Inse. Among them, except for those on the side of Kingelo and Zipple, I mainly searched for Hufester and neutral areas. And I made a reservation under the name Silcia Arcia, and only this place was willing to accept it.”
“Silcia Arcia?”
“I am a member of the Jin Demon Realm who was helped by the black dragon Misha during the Battle of the Seongguk. I am also a member of Biseps.”
It is not well known fact, but Jin had heard from Zephyrin that the demon army at the time of the battle to defend the kingdom was a mixture of demons from the Jin demon world and the middle world.
“Eh? That demon, Maljong, once helped the demons of the realm of demons during the Seongguk Suhojeon? Haven’t you heard of such a thing? Although I hate to mix words with that goblin.”
“If you ask Black Dragon Misha directly, you will be able to find out.”
Missha is currently acting as a substitute for Solderlet, so it was not a problem that could be immediately identified.
Soon after, Jin called the manager, and he answered instead that Tilias’ words were true.
“The owner has made known the name of Silcia Arsia to all hideouts that operate outside business, just like our tent. Since he is a person with a debt to be paid, he told me to ask for permission whenever there is a reservation inquiry. Besides Silcia Arsia, there are a few more such characters. Most of them are dragons.”
When the manager left, Jin nodded. He was not a person to be bribed, and even if Tilias and Misol had brainwashing or mind manipulation abilities, there was no reason to choose the veil. If you have that ability, it would be better to choose someone from Tikan or Hufester.
“It is a strange relationship. Did Mischa know that he was a member of the Jinma Realm and helped her?”
“Perhaps he just recognized that he was a demon. At the time, Silkia was in a position of being forcibly conscripted, like many demons, and ended up deserting. I heard that you went into a cave and met the black dragon Misha while being injured while avoiding the pursuit team.”
“That bastard is not a person to help anyone, especially if it is a demon.”
“Well… I don’t know why Misha, the black dragon, helped Silkia at that time. If it wasn’t for Misha, Silcia would have died. Maybe Misha saw something in Silkia.”
“For example?”
“Like a heart that loves the world.”
There was silence for a moment at Misol’s answer.
“…It hasn’t been long since we heard about this from Silcia. I heard it for the first time since contacting you. This is a fact that Silcia heard and informed about the results of your contact with us. Ask the top-notch taverns in Inse with your name. Thanks to that, I was able to get in touch so quickly.”
Although the relationship between Misha and Silkia was strange, it was not an important issue right now. Whether or not this was true could be confirmed whenever Misha came out as a royalties for a while.
“Okay, understand and move on. If so, I would like to hear the reason for contacting you this time.”
“I have new information to inform you.”
“What is it?”
“It’s about your brothers.”
Jin’s eyes widened.
“…what about the brothers?”
“Those who died and went to hell. Mu Runkandel and Ann Runkandel, and Ran Runkandel and Vigo Runkandel.”
Since the existence of the realm of Jinma, or hell, was revealed, Jin often thought of people who must have fallen there.
When I went to check the first transfer rift opened in the Romp of the Empire of Meltador, I remembered Kiddard Hall, and on the day I visited the Jinma World’s largest sea base, I was lost in thought while watching the tortured human souls.
Somewhere there seemed to be the villains and brothers he had killed. And now, Tilias was letting us know that it was real.
“Were they all in Hell?”
“Yes. And Paellito has a plan to use them to damage Luna Runcandel.”
Of course, Paellito never told Tilias and Miso of such a plan. He only issued an order to ban the production of soul wine throughout the realm of Jinma.
Biceps had guessed the reason based on the order, and had recently obtained information that turned that guess into certainty.
-Is that so? Hmm anyway! If someday the day comes when I meet those stray guys again, I will definitely give up my soul even then.
– Will we ever meet again?
– I will die of old age someday, so won’t we meet in a place like the afterlife?
-Even if the afterlife does exist, you and your sister will probably be somewhere else.
-is it? Anyway, my heart is like that. Make sure to give me trouble Anytime, as long as we meet.
The conversation Luna had with Jin on the day she returned to the Garden of Swords from the Black Sea.
At the time, Luna said as if she felt guilty towards her brother who died after being attached to Joshua and other evil spirits.
He clenched his fist saying that he would punish him if they met someday, but deep down Jin was worried about what would happen if such a thing happened.
“There is such a thing as a soul lord. It is a demonic drink made by processing human souls that have fallen into hell. Paellito stopped the production of soul wine to find them, but Misol and I went to Dokma Castle before fighting Baegyeong. But Ragal, the owner of Dokma Castle, is drinking soul wine.”
There were spies of Biseps in Dokma Castle as well. One of them was the warden of the dungeon, and although he did not directly manage prisons 1 2 3 on the lowest level, he was in a position to obtain information about them to some extent.
“If it’s Ragal… is it the demon king who injured Elona Ziple? Dealing with poison.”
“Yes. Ragal Fern is a person who is always looking for opportunities to surpass Paellito. For some reason, he is also receiving Jito’s favor. In any case, the spy planted in Dokma Castle said that Ragal secured those who were presumed to be your brothers.”
Ragal is the one who threatened even Elona Ziple using a mean move. Thinking that such a Ragal was holding a hand that could be Luna’s weakness made me feel stuffy.
“That’s why Ragal was drinking the soul wine. Can you get them out?”
“It is impossible right now. The prison at the bottom of Dokma Castle is a special management area, so even our spies cannot go deeper.”
“What about letting Faelito know that Ragal is holding them?”
“There is obviously a stark difference in skills between the two, but their status is at the same level. There’s no way Ragal will be punished for disobeying orders or something. There is a high possibility that Zito will wrap around and turn… Above all, whether the four brothers are with Ragal or Paellito, the result is the same. It will inflict a psychological blow on Baek Kyung.”
The demons were still forming cracks all over the world. It is difficult to exclude Luna, who is at the forefront of suppressing them, from the battlefield for the time being.
At this rate, it was an established fact that Luna would meet the brothers.
“Can you tell me the day they go into battle?”
“You can guess that much. Our spies just need to confirm the day the lowest floor of the Dokma Castle dungeon is opened.”
Jin nodded and handed out the installable communicator to them.
“It’s a communicator. Place this in the Veil and request immediate communications when my brothers in Hell enter the battlefield.”
“Are you planning to fight the battle yourself with the white whale standing by then?”
“okay. By the way, Tilias. If I cut another soul that has already died… what will happen?”
“It is extinction. It will no longer exist anywhere in the world. You cannot remain in hell, and you cannot ascend the path of reincarnation.”
Jin nodded heavily.
“Do you have any more information to tell me?”
“There is a character named Leila Belgasium, Paellito’s younger sister. It looks like he’s taking Zito’s orders and carrying out some other order… but we haven’t secured anything yet. However, Leila Belgasium will also appear in Inse soon. He is different from the other demon lords you have faced so far, so be careful.”
“I get it.”
“I will contact you through this place the next time we meet. We were allowed to rest for a while after the last battle, so we will be able to communicate with you freely for a while.”

Same visual poison.
Kelliac was enjoying dinner with Ragal, courted by Ragal.
“To find five souls that could be used for the Zipple side already… It’s so lucky to have met a friend, isn’t it? That’s why I got you out of prison today. Don’t you feel bad if you drink only in such a dull place every time?”
Kelliac didn’t answer and smiled. And just as the two were about to toast, a servant suddenly ran to the banquet hall.
“Ragal-nim!”
“What’s going on?”
“There is a problem with the lowest prison…! All four prisoners are said to have disappeared!”
“What!”
Ragal ran straight to the dungeon. The guards all seemed unconscious, and prison number 1 2 3 was wide open and empty.
“Immediately blockade the entire extreme poison area and find them!”
Soon, Ragal gritted his teeth as he looked at Kelliac, who had followed him belatedly.
“Keliac Ziple… I thought of you as a friend. How dare you stab me in the back like this? From now on, I, Ragal, will tell you why hell is hell…”
