Chapter 942,
Chapter 234. To hell (2)
I heard someone shouting outside the office. It was the footsteps of the butler, Petro.
“Sogaju-nim, everything is ready.”
“Okay, let’s go.”
As Jin and Luna stood up, Petro bowed his head. The party passed through the corridor and crossed the garden where the swords were stuck.
When he stopped walking, Jin could face 3,000 knights lined up. Luna blended into the center of the ranks and passed the flag to the knight. The other riders also raised their flags accordingly.
“Raise your flag!”
In line with Luna’s slogan, the riders raised their flags in unison.
The reason why the family knights gathered was no different. It was to commemorate the achievement of Sogaju that reached Changseong.
Jin considered it more important to ensure that there were no gaps in the mission of the family and alliance than commemorating his achievements.
Therefore, originally, there was no intention of holding a ceremony at all, and even if it was held, it was planned to proceed modestly with a very small number of people, but Leed and the elders strongly opposed it. Members of the family also have the right to celebrate this moment.
“insect!”
The knights raised a sword.
When Shiron went up to the window castle, far more family knights than now raised their swords.
In addition, numerous envoys from allied families, as well as envoys from the Empire and the Lutero Federation, had been sent.
Now it has to be smaller than it was back then. After the Battle of the Goddess, the number of family knights was reduced to less than half, and Jin did not allow envoys from forces other than the Barmal Alliance.
Even so, those who see this scene now, those who are standing here. No one felt more humble now than then.
Rather, it was considered to be more radiant and full of overwhelming atmosphere. It was because even though the visible numbers had decreased, the current Runkandel was by no means weaker than in those days.
For a while, Jin carefully examined the knights’ faces.
The shining eyes of the brothers holding the flag, the ancestors who still support the family, the youngest division proud knights standing in the front row of the Magic Knights unit with a heartwarming face.
‘I told him not to do it, but seeing him face to face… My heart is full again.’
Ssik Jin smiled.
“It’s been a while since I’ve seen all the knights from my family gather like this. Due to various missions, there was always a minimum number of people left in the Garden of Swords.”
Even so, the minimum number of people was always busy running around, so the atmosphere of the sword garden was never empty.
“The fact that you all gathered in the Garden of Swords to congratulate me means that we have done well.”
Of course, since all the knights and riders gathered in the Garden of Swords, there would be gaps in defending the alliance’s territory.
But it was a very small gap. The enemy tribes were still not touching the Barmal Union, and the transitional rifts in the realm of demons were almost all gone. Even if they were temporarily absent for the ceremony, the defenses could not suddenly become sorely lacking.
In the first place, the Union Army, including the golden box, was still preparing for the invasion of the enemy while sharpening their senses.
“So I’d rather celebrate that fact than my achievements. Everyone had a lot of trouble, but I will have to continue to suffer in the future. What can I do? That is the life of a knight, the life of struggle, and Runcandel.”
Hearing the name pronounced by Runkandel Jinn, the knights felt a drum beat in their hearts.
When Shiron left for the Black Sea as soon as he became the world’s greatest sword, the enemies judged that Runcandel would weaken.
When Luna abdicated the throne, her enemies now thought Runkandel’s future was uncertain.
When Rosa became a vassal, the enemies were convinced that Runcandel was over.
However, Runkandel overcame all the turbulent times and monstrous times.
I didn’t collude with anything that polluted public interest, and I didn’t use anything. In any crisis, we have struggled without collapsing, and we are still struggling.
At the center of it all was Jin.
“Either you were a Runkandel from birth or you came to the Garden of Swords to become a Runkandel. Our souls will all be of the same shape. We cut, stab, and knock down those who somehow try to ruin its form. The only reason I became a creator is to do the job better, so the true commemoration comes after I put an end to them all. So I’ll cut it short for today. more! Let everyone return to their seats.”
“insect!”
“insect!”
Just like at the Sogaju appointment ceremony, the knights dispersed in perfect order as soon as Jin gave the order to disband. Luna, who had just been ordered to ‘guard the ground’ by Jin, also headed to the meeting room. The only ones left were Reed and the elders.
It was a short speech that lasted less than 10 minutes, but no one could forget today.
[Khahaha! Our great-grandson finished the event briefly and boldly this time too. If the situation had been a little better, I would have held a banquet on the single tree bridge and enjoyed the romance.]
“Jito Zipline Kinzelo, the family of the Imperial family, the enemy of the Sun God, Ganesto. Once you’ve got it all sorted out, you can have a banquet, great-grandfather.”
[Will this great-grandfather be able to see the banquet before he goes to another world?]
“Of course. So, first of all, we have to finish Zito first.”
[Yes, you have to kill that monster to get things sorted out. Even if the world has changed, it has changed so much from my time when only the great powers of the people competed.] [
Sogaju, what should we prepare?]
“My ancestors, please keep the forces of the people in check while I go through hell. ”
[Okay… Wait, are you going to go to hell alone? Didn’t you gather the forces of the Union at Groshue Castle?]
“I’m going to take the Murakan Valeria Veil. Among the gathered troops, the golden ship and some superhumans will continue to stand by. Just in case the aftermath of the battle comes up to royalties, or in case I lose.”
Among the selected comrades, only Murakan will fight Jito directly.
Of course, Veil is also strong enough to fight alongside, but his role is to protect Valeria from Hell. Valeria had the role of enlightening the demons of hell to the record of the truth and solving the problem when there was a problem with Murakan’s ‘memory’.
Murakan’s power isn’t just about restoring a broken heart, it’s also deeply related to Jin’s achievement.
As Jin’s aura increases, so does his power. Therefore, Murakan has now regained all of his majesty from a thousand years ago, but there were side effects due to the wound in his heart.
If you use the same power as in your prime, your memory will sometimes be distorted. He forgot the truth he had identified in Katam’s painting and showed signs of a runaway.
However, it was not frequent or serious. It was to the extent that if Valeria lightly held it with record magic, he would be fine again.
It was also a problem that would be completely solved with time. As soon as Jin reached Changseong, the spirit that became stronger was slowly recovering from a thousand-year-old heart wound.
[Defeat! Great-grandson, you are now invincible.]
“It is only if. One of the spearhead swordsmen has already been beaten by him, so there’s nothing wrong with being careful.”
[Um, that’s right. Actually, this great-grandfather doesn’t worry too much whether you go alone or with the four of us.] [
Your words and expressions are separate
.
Until I return, seek out information about the other enemies. Especially Ganesto… They’re liaising with Kelliac Ziple. However, nothing has been revealed yet other than their home base in the world of Rokia.”
Since the last time Anne was dealt with, the Union has not yet grasped Ganestoga’s whereabouts and trends.
This is because there was little time to pursue them as the Jinma World went on a rampage.
[Okay Sogaju. Petro has grown a lot recently, so I will delegate the management of domestic affairs to him for a while, and I will go around the royalties and find records about them.]
Leed said.
“Oh, has Petro been recognized by the butler now?”
[This is the butler who has been in charge of sogaju since his days as a reserve jockey. Although he has a tendency to make a fuss at times, it is clear that he is a great butler worthy of Sogaju. It’s pocket money, and he’s never even embezzled a small amount.]
Jin burst into laughter as he recalled the moments when Petro made a fuss. Looking back, Petro always silently assisted him.
“I do have a few hiccups. The head butler will act on behalf of you and give you an appropriate reward.”
[Yes Sogaju. Then, when are you planning to go to Jinmagyeron?]
“I plan to leave right now.”
[Right now!?]
“Yes, great-grandfather. Originally, I wanted to start faster, but time was delayed to wake up the spirits of the Holy Land. Since the conversation with Biseps has already been completed, I just need to move.”
The only resistance remaining in the Biseps Jinma realm. They were currently waiting for Jin and preparing for the final battle to liberate the Jin Demon World.
Leed and the elders did not comment on Jin’s decision. All they had to do was faithfully carry out the orders left by Sogaju.
“Then let’s go and see you.”
Jin immediately moved to the backyard where the red owl was parked.
[I wish you good luck, Sogaju.]
[Show the majesty of Runkandel to the Jin Demon Realm and return.]
The red owl sent Jin to the gathering place of Groschie Castle in an instant.
The fleets of each faction were still gathered in Groche Castle, just like when they were forming a wall. Both Zipple and Kinzelo were unable to recklessly enter the passageway leading to the mainland of the Jinma Realm.
Jin stopped by the golden box for a while and exchanged greetings with the alliance members. The alliance members received a message from Tikan and knew that Jin was now going down to Hell.
And the heads of Ziffle and Kingelo also showed signs of moving as soon as the red owl appeared at the castle in Grosh. Enemies were also waiting for Jin.
“Are you here kid?”
“Yes, Murakan.”
“I couldn’t even attend the ceremony for you, because I received the history writer’s memory protection magic one last time before fighting Zito.”
“Reverse… Historian?”
“I can’t always call you the guardian of history, can I?”
“Can I just call you Valeria?”
“This one sticks to your mouth a little more. Anyway, since the kid is here, let’s start. There, the Great Veil Lord, invincible and immortal, the nemesis of mortals.”
“Ah, stop calling me that!”
As soon as the party left the golden box and approached the passageway of the castle of Grosche, a person approached.
“Jean Runkandel.”
It was the Beradin Ziple. Betty and Almatia Kun stood behind him.
“Oh, Beradin. Grosh sent only the lower ones before the castle attack. It looks like you’re going to hell yourself this time, right?”
Unlike the content, it wasn’t a sarcastic tone. Rather, there was a hint of welcome in Jin’s voice.
“It’s not just Zito down there, it’s our Zipple traitor. I have to go and put an end to that miserable life myself.”
It was about Kelliac.
Jin felt bitter for a moment as he recalled the image of Beradin killing Keliac and becoming more corrupted, but he answered with a smile.
“Beradin, do it in moderation, and now stop and come back like before. That kind of line really doesn’t suit you.”
