91. Respecting power and power (4)

‘I never thought that guy would come to Ventica…!’

It was not difficult to recognize his friend, although the distance was so great that his face could not be seen closely.

He hadn’t swung his sword once, but his heart was beating faster.

It was intuitively felt. The fact that Beradin is not normal.

Suddenly, he remembered the last conversation he had with Beradin.

-So what are you going to do?

-what?

-Getting out of the zip.

-Ah, that… It’s difficult. Taking me as a prisoner after you become a jockey would be the least realistic way. It’s an all-out war if the numbers are tight. And I don’t know how badly your siblings might treat me.

– Anyway, Runcandel and Ziple fight even if it’s not you.

-That’s right, but Jin. I have my own responsibilities. If the family is going the wrong way, shouldn’t the country also be corrected? I’ll get everything back to normal. That I would bring Zipple back to the proud family I knew.

Shouldn’t the country also be corrected? I also need to correct myself…

For a moment, while it felt like time had stopped, that voice seemed to be repeating itself in my head.

I will correct the family crest.

Jin did not believe in Beradin’s aspirations.

The evil empire, which had never been broken in thousands of years, was already too far to set it right. To the extent that there is no answer other than breaking it.

However, it was so huge and hard that even breaking it was considered impossible.

More than half of the world is under the power of Ziple, the alliance is strong, and countless people live their lives dependent on Ziple’s magic.

Even if the whole world turns into an enemy, I wonder if I can break it down.

That was the zip.

So Jin hoped that Beradin would run away. I hoped to leave the family and live as a complete self.

-No, if it were me, I would have left Runkandel. What if, without even realizing it, I had come to the conclusion that I had to live a life in which my will gradually faded away.

The sky was covered with falling fragments of the giant swordsman and Kojek’s gun that fired wildly.

Beladin’s red eyes shook precariously in the dark sky.

It’s not normal. Jin repeated the words to himself and gritted his teeth.

A life in which memories are manipulated and one slowly loses oneself. No one would want that.

Veradin, who stepped out into the battlefield with eyes reddened by the power of fire, looked like a madman. He looked like a monster who couldn’t kill his enemies.

purong purr kwaa-!

Wherever Veradin’s gaze reached, space explosions were spreading.

‘There’s no way that you, who resisted the family until the end, came to this battlefield with your will.’

I didn’t mind that I might run into Beradin on my first mission after becoming a rider.

All of a sudden, a curse came up to my throat for being like this.

I wanted to try anything to get Beradin out of the battlefield and bring him back to his senses.

But it’s just a feeling.

This is practically impossible to achieve. Swaying in anger will not improve the situation.

‘Anyway, it’s difficult to get Beradin back to normal right now. Probably impossible.’

I needed to control my anger and take a hard look at the situation.

Of course, I couldn’t erase all my worries, but Jin thought this.

Beradin is not a child.

It wasn’t Jin’s role to throw himself down as if to save a child in danger.

That’s something Beradin has to do on his own, and Jin just needs to reach out when he asks for help first.

The decision to resist the family was Beradin’s choice, so he had to respect it as a friend. That is, until the judgment was made that he was completely broken.

Jin’s eyes quickly calmed down.

‘First of all, the war situation has tilted sharply due to the appearance of Beradin.’

To be precise, it was a change caused by the magic space explosion that was close to the power that Beradin was spreading.

On the Runkandel side, there were only two people who could properly hit Kozek and the red dragons in flight. Dipus and Barton They were flying through the sky using sword skills and trying to attack.

In the meantime, Difus and Barton’s movements were blocked due to a space explosion.

Even 9-star and 10-star knights with blessed bodies of Runcandel. Avoiding space explosions in the air is next to impossible.

Beradin took advantage of that fact and obstinately interfered with the two of them.

Thanks to this, the two had no choice but to respond only by shooting swords from the ground, so the Zipline side seemed to be pouring an offensive almost one-sidedly.

It is a power that is on a different level from the space explosion used by Midor Elner.

A single magic instantly bound the two transcendent warriors together.

‘It must be complicated for Difus-nim-nim. It wouldn’t make sense for Veradin to use Space Blast instead of Kelliac, and they would think that Barton leaked information about the Ventica mission to Ziffle.’

As expected, Difus was in chaos. Of course, I didn’t show it so that the enemy would recognize it, but it was clearly visible to Jin.

‘Barton would have actually leaked information to Zipple before this operation began. Since you’ve been assigned to Ventica, if you really need to get the Ancient Iron, use the appropriate number.’

The ‘proper number’ was the space explosion.

It was meaningless because if too much force was invested to stop Barton and Difus, Runcandel would send troops accordingly.

But what if Difus and Barton’s ability to conduct aerial combat was simply eliminated by space explosion?

While there are only two people capable of aerial combat in Runkandel, Ziffle has five dragons and Kojek. Even in Kojek, it was unknown how many of Zipline’s most elite wizards, White Nights, were on board.

No matter how strong Difus and Barton are, they will be infinitely disadvantaged from the moment the air battle is blocked.

‘Zipple used his brain well. If Runcandel and Ziple had simply fought with more troops, the space explosion alone would never have changed the situation.’

The story of when there were knights to protect Barton and Difus from space explosions. The ten Guardian Knights who came with him did not have that ability.

The infiltration team could no longer advance to the enemy because the road was blocked, and the guardian knights deployed to kill those who had deserted the battlefield seemed to be chased by dragons.

“Why the hell did Beradin Ziple use the power of Kelliac… Lord Barton! I’ll try to create an opportunity, sir, shoot him.”

“How are you going to create a chance for the 4th rider? Midnight wizards are intensively protecting Beradin.”

“I can rip off that protective shield.”

“Isn’t that saying that the fourth horseman’s inaction is not enough? It’s too risky. As long as the aerial battle is stopped, we must also prepare for considerable damage to see it end.”

“So you’re saying we’re going to leave empty-handed like this?”

“Think rationally, Horseman 4. As a black knight, I don’t want to leave the stain of a mission failure, but the enemy came with a very good number.”

“I beg your pardon?”

“Was the ancient perpetual iron of great value enough to guarantee the lives of the Four Horsemen? Just confirming that Veradin can use Kelliac’s power is a great harvest.”

Even as the conversation continued, fragments and magic were pouring incessantly.

Difus and Barton continue to escape space explosions with a transcendent sense.

But other Guardian Knights couldn’t do it like them.

What makes space explosions so infamous is that they can kill people without warning.

Wow-!

One of the guardian knights whose arm had ‘burst’ out of nowhere screamed. Originally, it was a space explosion aimed at the head, but the guardian knight lost his arm reflexively.

Space Explosion is a magic that even Difus and Barton can avoid by sharpening their senses to the limit.

In addition, Veradin’s space explosion was unfolding as a ‘primary chant’. Meaning there are three explosions going on in the air at once.

Even though Dipus and Barton could defend against the breath of Kojek’s ship’s gun magic and enemy dragons that were falling aiming for the Guardian Knight, the space explosion was an exception.

It’s literally only a matter of time before the other Guardian Knights get hit by a space explosion.

“Four horsemen! What is the Horseman of Runkandel? It is the role of leading and responsible for the knights of the family. Are you going to lead them to dog death because you hate the stain of mission failure? Make your decision.”

Did you think this filthy traitor bastard didn’t know your intentions!

Difus shook his head, swallowing the rage that rose up in his throat.

If the black knight in this position had been someone other than Barton, Dipus would have actively followed the opinion of retreating. Because there is not a single word wrong.

However, Barton is a spy, and Dipus’ mission is to kill him while securing Ventica.

“As you said, I don’t think it’s worth it in the ancient late spring. However, when it comes to the supply and demand of Beradin, the story is different. You just can’t go back. We take the Ventica and take the neck of the zipel kick.”

“Then I will give the order to retreat.”

“Sir Barton!”

“Even a fourth rider cannot infringe on my rights. I’ll give you one last chance. Give a direct order to retreat. If you do not comply, I will escape with the knights as the Dark Knight of Runcandel. If even one person dies, it will all be the responsibility of the Fourth Horseman.”

“What do you mean? When will another opportunity come to kill Ziple’s next family head…” “

In my eyes, the 4th rider is blinded by the ball and it only seems to be making a mistake. You said it was a chance to kill Beradin? Do you really think Zipple will let the next head of household be so complacent?”

With nothing to refute, Difus felt frustrated and was going mad.

He couldn’t reveal Barton’s betrayal in front of all his enemies.

Even if it was revealed, killing Barton in this situation was an unreasonable story. Rather, it was fortunate that he did not suffer.

‘shit! Should I step back and seek the next opportunity…! Just because of one magic!’

If you go back like this, being disgraced is a definite step.

That was no big deal. Rosa would hand over the task of killing the Black Knight to another rider, most likely Joshua and Runtia.

It was inevitable that if they killed Barton cleanly unlike himself, their position within the family would be narrowed.

suddenly.

Difus remembered a man who hadn’t joined the battlefield yet.

Gene Runkandel, his own youngest brother. if it’s Jin.

If it’s Jin… he might have a trick to turn this dog’s situation around.

I had such a vague thought, and the feeling of humiliation soared in itself. For Difus, the situation was not that good.

‘Damn it. How did you get to this point, Dipus? However, the immediate humiliation is not important. You must kill Barton. in this place today. certainly!’

Jin was still watching them from outside the battlefield.

I couldn’t hear the conversation between Difus and Barton because of the binge drinking and the distance, but it wasn’t hard to read the way things were going.

‘Barton would have urged retreat. As long as the variable called space explosion worked, it would be crazy to risk the lives of Difus and the Guardian Knights to get the ancient iron.’

Jin had no intention of just watching the situation go the way Barton wanted.

‘I’ll have to neutralize the space explosion first.’

After making his decision, Jin started walking towards the battlefield.
