Chapter 442,
Chapter 127. To the Dark Kingdom (3)

The next day, Luton headed to the Holy Kingdom, and Jin and Murakan found the Mila Kingdom.
It was to stop by Grace Shields (Misha)’s top-notch secret tavern, ‘The Tabernacle’.
The waitress recognized the two right away, but told the same story as the last time they visited the place.
“My master is not here right now.”
“It was like that when I visited a few months ago. When are you coming back?”
“Since you two visited last time, Master has never returned.”
It was common for Misha to be away for a month or two. It is only natural that she is very busy as Solderlet’s deputy and has numerous hiding places besides the Veil.
But it was rarely the case that he never visited the tent for the change of season.
“Did you leave a separate letter for me and this friend?”
“doesn’t exist. It’s been a long time since we’ve had a case like this, so we’re worried about you.”
“When you come back, I’ll tell you to call me here.”
Jin took out a piece of paper with an address written on it and a small sack of gold coins, and the waitress bowed her head gracefully.
Until evening, the two of them rode through the transit gates several times to find other hiding places that Misha had told them about. Again, I couldn’t find her anywhere.
“Kyakya, dog poop can’t be used for medicine!”
Murakan seemed satisfied that he just didn’t have to see her.
“Isn’t it that you like it too much? You might be a little worried, though.”
“What are you worried about? It’s a big deal for a dragon to be away for a few months, not decades. Where would you like to hang out?”
“I feel strangely unwell.”
When Jin said, Murakan snorted.
“Are you not feeling well? Great. It’s not bad to suffer to death from being attacked by some powerful guys. to be human The problem is that there are probably no guys in the world who can beat him like that.”
As Murakan said, it was safe to say that no one could capture Misha.
In the first place, during the thousand years that Murakan was sleeping, Misha was never caught even while fighting the Wraith.
“It is, but.”
As for Jin, there were a lot of stories that I wanted to meet Misha and hear her opinions as soon as possible.
Temar’s Tomb Kingelo’s leader Demon Dragon Chaos Valeria, etc. It may not be possible to tell everything clearly that it is Misha, but it seemed to provide some clues.
In particular, only she could tell the most relevant stories about Valeria and her ‘recording device restoration’.
“Don’t worry, let’s go find the Black Royals.”
* * *
Heukwangsanchae (黑王山砦) was located in the ‘Bise Kingdom’, a representative unprotected area of the Central Continent.
The Kingdom of Bise is a weak country that does not belong to any of the representative 3 powers, now it has become the 4 powers (Ziplruncandel Bement Kingelo). The royal family and army are maintained, but in reality no one considered the owner of the Bise Kingdom to be the royal family.
It is to recognize that the Black King and its leader are the true masters of the Bise Kingdom.
It was a normal notion. The Black Kings have enough power to destroy the Bise Kingdom with just a portion of the 3rd army.
The established theory was that the Black Royals did not take over the kingdom just to maintain their identity as a ‘mercenary’.
“They are great guys.”
“what?”
“Usually, when an armed group establishes itself in a small country like this, it is bound to seize the royal family and commit exploitation and tyranny against the civilian population.”
The Black Kings were very far from him. Rather, it would not be an exaggeration to say that they supported the Bise kingdom, and they were providing considerable support to the royal family and civilians.
For this reason, Bise Kingdom was recognized as a good country to live in, and immigration applications were not cut off, and numerous ancient ruins and artifacts remained clean, so it was crowded with academy professors and scholars every year.
“It is contrary to the money-crazy image that usually comes to mind when thinking of mercenaries.”
“Contrary to their name, they are nice and cute guys. If this comes out uncooperative, you can beat me gently.”
“It’s nice. Is that so?”
At those words, Jin burst out laughing and continued talking behind his back.
“why? What’s wrong?”
“The reason the Black Kings manage and take responsibility for the Bise Kingdom is not because they are good-hearted philanthropists. This kingdom of Bise is the hostage storage for the Dark Kingdom.”
As Jin said, the Black Kingdom was using the Bise Kingdom as a hostage storage and the best shield to maintain their ‘neutral’.
A structure was formed in which any large power must trample the Bise Kingdom in order to subdue and absorb the Black King by force. It was bound to be accompanied by the death of many residents and the destruction of ancient ruins.
When Jin explained these things, Murakan opened his eyes wide.
“Hey… Then you’re taking care of your image and reality at the same time by doing such a villain? They were very bad and smart pups. He doesn’t like using the name Black King.”
Of course, the Black Kings had the power to maintain neutrality even without the Bise kingdom, but the more means available to any force, the better.
“Well, no hostages have been killed since I was born. It’s better to arrive soon and transform.”
Fung Nyaang!
Murakan transformed into a butterfly runcandel and sat on Jin’s shoulder. Because Jin dyed his face red with Golden Snow products and repaired his face, neither the gatekeepers of Bise Kingdom nor the civilians recognized him.
However, Jin was certain that if he wandered around Bise Kingdom in this form, someone from the Dark Kingdom would surely recognize him.
‘Murka’s 3rd squad members couldn’t forget this.’
When it was revealed that the black cat Jin was taking with him when he left the Storm Castle was Murakan, the story continued within the Dark Kingdom for a while. After all, the ‘Little King’ couldn’t have just had an ordinary cat.
Since it is a city where foreigners often come and go, Jin and Murakan did not receive much attention.
Jin was wandering around the capital, looking around the billboards and newsletters on top of golden tops hanging everywhere.
It was while subtly radiating an aura that a 6 star or lower could not feel.
And soon after, as expected, Jin felt a mercenary approaching him.
“…that cat. You can’t.”
It looked like a long time ago, but the mercenary was soon convinced that he was Jin Runkandel, who had personally carried out the escort mission a long time ago.
“Wonder Latham.”
Jin spoke first before the mercenary could speak. At that, the mercenary was startled and had no choice but to look at Jin. He didn’t know Jin would remember his name.
“I didn’t know you remembered my name. I am ashamed of myself for not recognizing the sutra right away.”
Latham hurriedly ignored and replied.
“It’s nice to see you standing next to Sir Murka, the commander of the 3rd Army at the time.”
As soon as they shook hands, Latham was able to realize that there was no lie in the rumors about Jin these days. I also admired the mighty power transmitted from the grip.
“I don’t think he just came. Do you have something to do with the captain?”
The fact that he said he was directly the leader, not another senior, was a part that showed how much he was evaluating Jin’s status.
“exactly.”
“Since the captain is in the living room, I will guide you directly. However, there are guests who came first, so please understand.”
The 12th Horseman of Runkandel was in a position where he could meet the captain at any time without contact, but he could not meet the other guests until he passed them.
And Jin was able to read one piece of information from Latam’s words.
‘It means there is a guest with a higher rank than me.’
It was correct.
Currently, at the Black King Sanchae, a guest with a higher status than Jin is waiting for the Black King. So Jin had to wait until his business was over.
‘Who is it?’
There weren’t too many people who immediately came to mind. I thought it would be nice if this accidental meeting was not very uncomfortable.
“Of course I understand.”
“Thank you, please follow me.”
It was close to midnight when I arrived at Heukwang Sanchae following Latam.
I didn’t feel a tremendous ghost like Gugoksaeseong, but it seemed to exude a special energy from the rugged mountain range with mountains.
When visiting Heukwangsanchae, no VIP could be beautiful and comfortable. If you don’t have the strength to climb the mountain range, you have to be carried on someone’s back and look unsightly.
There were only a few people in the world who could only maintain dignity by riding a dragon or flying ship, or who could fly over the Black King Sanchae.
Eventually, when he faced the spectacle of Heukwang Sanchae, located halfway up the mountain, Jin exclaimed in admiration.
All of a sudden, it seemed as if a giant had dug out the mid-slope, and on top of that, black and huge forts were lined up.
As if they had in mind the dragon’s invasion, the densely piled magic cannons pointed towards the sky, and all sorts of magic devices and traps seemed to wriggle like snakes.
‘Looking at this, the Garden of Swords looks very simple.’
Entering the central building, the mercenaries lined up in a row raised a salute. The fact that Jin had visited had already spread to the mountains before climbing the mountain range.
“Welcome Sir Jean Runkandell! See you again.”
Murka greeted Jin. While going to the drawing room, Jin often looked for Zephyrin with a wink.
Just as I was curious, I heard Zephyrin’s distinctive lively voice from in front of me. It was right in front of the drawing room of the Dark King.
“I’m sorry, Captain 2!”
“I’m sorry? very just I don’t know how upset the 3 captains you are with you will be. Captain, what if you commit such rudeness in front of your guests!”
“I did it because I didn’t know!”
“No, the captain didn’t even call me, so why are you coming to treat guests? Do you have a seat? Thinking about it again is absurd. Besides, why do you
say you want to meet Runkandel 1st Horseman…?
“Oh, it’s the head. Hey, someone hurry up and get this out of my sight!”
Just like the first time I saw her at the banquet hall in Geomwangseong, Zephyrin was scolded for making a mistake this time.
“Ha… that me. ha! I’m sorry, Jin. You see this ugliness again.”
“it’s okay.”
“How the hell am I supposed to make a person out of that! Zephyrin! Come here right now!”
Zephyrin, who ran in a hurry, smiled at Jin again this time.
Jin and Murakan couldn’t take their eyes off the ax sword that looked bigger than her body on her back.
