Swordmaster’s Youngest Son - Chapter 397
Chapter 397,
Chapter 119. Banquet in the Imperial Palace (2)
Quikantel’s words once again caught the eyes of Murka and Zephyrin.
Murka was scolding Zephyrin all the way back to the Black Royal table.
“Ew? What do you mean, Quikantel?”
“Quikantel man. Are you saying that you won’t even treat such incompetent children as human beings? I haven’t seen this kid like that.”
As Jet and Murakan questioned, Quikantel sighed.
“Murakan, how can you, a dragon, be so dull? Oh well. You’re not a careless guy to begin with.”
“I’m not prepared to hear you say that.”
“Didn’t that person smell something?”
“What smell? All I could smell was a strange perfume. The kids who come to this kind of banquet for the first time always spray perfume like that. Maybe I don’t wash well…”
At Murakan’s words, Enya and Jet both sniffed at my collar at the same time. It was their first banquet, so they sprayed a lot of perfume.
“It’s not like those people usually don’t wash well…?”
“That’s right. Haha, I was touching the perfume bottle in the morning and my hand slipped.”
Of course, the smell Quekantel was talking about was not perfume.
“It was the smell of the blood of my own people, Murakan.”
Colleagues looking at Quikantel in awe.
“…what?”
“It’s covered in perfume, but it’s certain. The smell that comes from that human comes from the blood of his own people, especially when the blood of different species is mixed.”
It is impossible to hide the smell of blood from professional mercenaries who have been through countless battlefields.
The smell of blood that permeated them was as thick and intense as sizzling meat.
However, dragon blood was completely different from human blood.
The smell of blood differs from species to species, and it has a unique, strange scent that is difficult to recognize with human senses.
“Terror of the Ante Mountains. It was thicker than anything that came from that human.”
“Hmm, my God. Then, Mr. Quikantel. Are you saying that Zephyrin could become a dragon hunter?”
“Dragon Hunter? Nothing like that has ever existed in the world, you son of a bitch. At least that Vanessa Olsen must have been similar. Hmm, the smell of the blood of my own people… So, did the perfume cover it up on purpose?”
“There is a possibility.”
“If what you say is true, it must be either a demon or a demon dragon. However, as far as I know, none of the demons can transform into a perfect human form, so it is highly likely that it will be the demon dragon.”
demon dragon.
They meant dragons serving demons or demon kings. The same name was attached to both the case of a demon god from the beginning and the case of transferring to the demon world after serving another god.
“The last time the demon dragon appeared in Inse was during the Seongguk Suhojeon. Before that, it was 1,200 years ago, when Helluram descended upon the Demon God.”
“Even though they were often found before the advent of demons. Then I will go and ask. Are you a demon dragon?”
“If so, what are you going to do?”
“I have to finish it.”
“Yeah, you’d better stay still, Murakan.”
When Jin stopped, Murakan shrugged.
“why?”
“If you say no, there is no way to prove it. It may not be real. Above all, if they suddenly go wild saying that their identity has been revealed, there is no answer. This is Sir Ron’s banquet hall.”
If Murakan’s actions were to ruin the banquet, the blame would fall on Jin.
“Jin is right, Murakan. Why the hell are you wearing that thing called a head? Besides, it could be that the smell of the blood of my own people is imbued with the weapon. The odds are low, but in that case, he might just be a normal human being. Only the weapons belonged to demon dragons and people like Vanessa.”
Zephyrin turned around scratching the back of her head as if she was all confused.
Then, naturally, our eyes met Jin, and she smiled and waved her hand.
“Hey, if you’re strong like me, you don’t have much to think about. what do you know Huh true. If you look at that Zephyrin or something like that, you’re an absolute fool.”
“By the way, Miss Quikantel. If the author is really a devil dragon, he probably has a reason for coming to me. I think… that’s the magic book. Of Rontelgeuse.”
The sorcery book of Rontelgeuse.
It reminded me of the item I got from raiding Joshua’s secret villa a few months ago. If the Demon Dragon had anything to do with himself, that would be the only thing he had to do.
“That’s what I think too, Jin. After the banquet, we need to find out about Zephyrin.”
“Anyway, the Dark Kingdom also has business. After the banquet, we should visit the main building of the Dark Kingdom. If you get a chance, it would be nice to meet the leader of the Dark Lord at the banquet hall.”
The world’s best mercenary army, the Black Dynasty, was one of the most important groups among the neutral forces that Jin had to subjugate.
It was a mercenary group with potential that even Runkandel could not ignore.
“Besides, if it turns out that Zephyrin is related to Rontelgeuse, we can expect to find out about Joshua and their relationship.”
“By the way, Gongja.”
“Yeah Enya.”
“How did Zephyrin know that Confucius had the Book of Magic?”
“It must be because you felt the magical power unique to demons and demon dragons, Enya. We’ve been around the ominous object for the past few months, so we’ve got it.”
Quikantel answered on behalf of Jin.
“Oh, then the devil dragon is a great dog…”
After finding the magic book, Tikan was always looking for information about Rontelgeuse.
However, since there has been no income so far, the appearance of Zephyrin could have been a clue.
Also, there is no way that the existence of a demon dragon would have a good influence on public life.
It was also important to reveal the identity and purpose of Zephyrin as soon as possible.
Of course, if she was a normal human being, there would be no problem.
While the party was talking about Zephyrin, another person came to their table.
And unlike Zephyrin, he approached with an expression full of obvious murderous intent and malice.
He didn’t even try to hide his energy, so other people who read his life story also fixed their eyes.
“What is that again? It’s been a while since I’ve had eyes that I don’t like.”
Murakan, immediately displeased with that attitude, narrowed his brows. Other colleagues did not react otherwise.
“Jean Runkandel.”
Jin raised his head and met his eyes.
Jin immediately recognized who he was.
Lata Froch. He is the blood relative of Fei Frochi, who was captured by Jin not long ago, and the young leader of the Ghost Corps.
“Little. Tell this fearless bastard what I have to say. If you don’t open your eyes properly, I’ll never see you again.”
“That’s right, Mr. Lata. What business does the eldest son of the demons of Proch have with me?”
Despite Murakan’s remarks and Jin’s nonchalant voice, there were no ups and downs in Lata’s emotions.
It seemed that it was not because he had regained his composure, but because he had come from the top angry to the point that there was nothing more to turn.
“Did you kill him?”
It was about Fay.
“I saved you.”
“I won’t ask twice. Say what you want.”
The surroundings were buzzing. This was because the disposition of this place was clearly different from that of Runcandel’s single-wood bridge party. It is not a banquet where you can fight carelessly just because you have a grudge against each other.
Nonetheless, everyone was looking forward to it.
The 12 riders of Runcandel, who were said to have destroyed the garden of swords by themselves, and the ghost captain who is regarded as the second coming of Smarion.
You will be hard pressed to find a better spectacle than that.
‘Will the 12 horsemen of Runkandel cause waves in the world again?’
‘Lata Froch is also a monster among monsters. If the 12th Horseman defeats him, Runkandel’s top riders will have no choice but to feel threatened once again.’
Those watching were expecting a lot.
Jin didn’t want to fight Lata.
It was because the Ghost Corps was an important neutral force that had to be recruited as an ally, just like the Black Kings.
As the headquarters of the ghost squad was located in Beament, if it could be captured, it could be of great help in checking the empire in the future.
Of course, even though giant powers like Runcandel Zipple Bement have been working hard for a long time to recruit them as allies. There is a good reason why forces such as the Black Kings and Ghost Corps have been ‘neutral’ so far.
Naturally, it was because the survival of the group itself would be endangered if they were wrongly attached to either side.
That is why large-scale neutral forces have existed, sometimes lining up in Runcandel, sometimes in Zipple, sometimes in Bement, and sometimes not trading anywhere.
‘But now all neutral forces must come together. If I want to destroy Ziffle beyond ascending the throne of Runcandel. certainly.’
Once Jiple completes the demon stone and starts to achieve what they want.
At that time, not only Runkandel, but also those who stood in the gray zone will come to an end.
It would be impossible to even fully exist as oneself in a manipulated world.
‘I have to let everyone know that only I am getting the means to stop it.’
Even while Jin thought about such things for a while, Lata was showing more and more hostility.
‘Somehow, he seems like a really tired person to make into an ally. If I answered that I killed Fei, he would have thrust his sword without hesitation.’
The one in front of me was definitely the notorious ghost captain.
However, to Jin, he felt like a rebel suffering from severe puberty.
It is a subject that needs to be well-adjusted and guided to the right path.
“I haven’t thought of anything yet.”
“Think about it now.”
“What if you don’t like it?”
“I said I wouldn’t ask twice. There is no negotiation, and you will forever be enemies with me.”
“It sounds like you’re going to turn the whole of Runkandel into an enemy.”
“I heard that people who believe in their family and installation are not that type of person. You can interpret it that way if you like. Beradin Ziple was here too, and I’m ready to talk to him too.”
Although he showed hostility without caution, Lata was indeed a person who could be called the head of the Ghost Corps.
Even in a state of anger to the tip of his head, he knows what can most effectively pressure Jin.
While contemplating what answer to give.
I saw Veradin standing behind Lata and clearing his throat.
He smiled at Jin and said:
“Um, Mr. Lata. I’m not ready to talk to you. The two of you seem to be in a good mood. When did the Ghost Corps and Runkandel form an alliance?”
