Swordmaster’s Youngest Son - Chapter 443

Chapter 443,

Chapter 127. To the Dark Kingdom (4)

Kung!

The thick handle of the ax sword struck Zephyrin in the back of the head. It wasn’t someone who hit him, it was something that happened when he leaned against Murka.

“Ugh!”

Looking at Zephyrin grabbing the back of the head, Murka slammed her chest with her fist in frustration.

It was to the point where there was no way to know where something like this had rolled in and was obstructing the discipline of the 3rd Army.

“I’m sorry, boss!”

“If I’m sorry, my mercenary life is over…”

“Ah, isn’t that Sir Jean Runcandel!?”

Zephyrin looked at Jin with twinkling eyes.

Jin and Murakan found it odd that this rather stupid-looking young woman might be a demon dragon.

However, Murakan was closely observing the smell coming from her.

-Murakan, how can you, a dragon, be so dull? Oh well. You’re not really an insensitive guy.

-I’m not prepared to hear you say that.

-Didn’t that person smell something?

A conversation between Murakan and Quikantel at the banquet hall of the Imperial Palace.

Zephyrin smelled of dragon’s blood, thick and terrible, unrecognizable to human senses. It smells like the blood of several species mixed together.

haha!

Suddenly, Murakan made a threatening sound and bristled his fur.

He smelled the smell that he did not recognize in the banquet hall. Because of this, Murakan was ready to scratch Zephyrin’s face with his sharp claws.

“Oh!”

Zephyrin was startled and took a step back. Murka understood that this was Murakan showing off her displeasure with her behavior.

“…I’m really sorry, Sir Jin. Mr Murakan. The captain is still on business with the previous customer, so when it’s your turn, your subordinates will talk to you right away.”

Murka said, suppressing her boiling anger as much as possible. Soon, he disappeared somewhere with Zephyrin, and only the mercenaries on duty and Jin Murakan remained in the empty parlor hallway.

“Why did you just do that? Did you smell the smell that Quikantel talked about last time?”

“Nyaaaong!”

“Transform and speak like a human.”

pop!

“Yeah, that was the smell. If Quikantel hadn’t told me, I don’t think I’d have noticed this time because of the smell of perfume.”

“How do you see it?”

“Do you think that woman is a demon dragon?”

“huh.”

“Well, like Quikantel said, it could be the smell from the weapon.”

If Zephyrin was a demon dragon, the two encounters so far could not have been coincidences.

In that case, the moment I thought that the only thing Zephyrin could approach intentionally was the sorcery book of Rontelgeuse.

‘I want to meet the first jockey, is that really just something I say?’

According to Murka, the reason why Zephyrin carried an ax sword that she couldn’t use properly was because of her longing for Luna.

If she was a pure human, it would be enough to think that she was a little eccentric, but she suddenly remembered how Luna got the ‘Orgal’s Pendant’.

‘My sister said she obtained the pendant by cutting down a demon in the past.’

A pendant obtained by killing demons A book obtained by killing demons and a demonic dragon.

There was a corner like a puzzle that fit together so that it was just a product of coincidence. When Jin said these things, Murakan nodded and replied:

“Let’s just ask him directly after we finish our business with the Dark Lord. Are you a demon dragon? I couldn’t ask because it was a banquet hall at the time, but I felt embarrassed and couldn’t.”

“Yeah, that would be better. I can’t tell you right away, but.”

“Don’t worry, there are ways to check everything. Anyway, if he turns out to be a demon dragon, you’ll find out about your brother’s relationship with Rontelgeuse. As long as you stomp on everything you know.”

“Isn’t there a possibility that you might be stronger than us?”

“Where in the world is a dragon stronger than this Murakan… After that. Maybe it’s because I haven’t regained all my strength yet. Then what should I do?”

Jin shrugs.

“Anyway, the guy inside there seems to be Runkandel. Seeing how Zephyrin said, “I want to meet the first jockey.”

“It must be one of the higher riders or their agent. It seems to be the second horseman side.”

As there was a conflict with the Council of Elders, Joshua would need a force to repair the lack of power. As the next head of household, there is a need to show the appearance of recruiting and rallying neutral forces.

‘However, since the Black Royals are a force that has maintained neutrality for a long time, they can never be subsumed at any price.’

If the person who is meeting with the Dark King leader came for a ‘recruitment’ rather than a simple request, the possibility that he was holding that kind of hand could not be ruled out.

Wild vegetables servants brought simple refreshments and tea. The two of them chewed and ate it, quietly waiting for their turn to come.

It was around three o’clock in the morning when the door to the drawing room of the Dark King’s Headquarters opened.

“I’ll see you again tomorrow morning, Captain of the Black Kings.”

“Okay.”

The voices of the leader of the Dark Kingdom and the guests were heard.

Judging from the story, it seemed that they were going to continue the story tomorrow.

The person who came out of the living room covered his body with a robe and hood, but Jin recognized at a glance that he was not Joshua or another high-ranking rider, but their substitute.

He, too, recognized Jin and Murakan. He tried to pass the two without saying a word, but Jin spoke to him first.

“hey.”

Rob stopped and looked back at Jin.

“Are you that guy then?”

then that guy

The mysterious black knight who tried to kidnap Dante whom he met at the banquet hall of Geomwangseong. Jin was convinced that Rob was him.

“I was confused, but as I passed close by, I knew for sure. Claw users show a little bit when they walk. Should I say he has a distinctive gesture?”

The claw is not a commonly used weapon, but Jin has been with Gilly all along, so he knows its properties well.

“Do you think the second horseman is going to entrust you with something quite important? If you see that the black knight was sent. Please tell me what happened inside. I also have to meet the leader of the Dark Lord right now.”

“…Still smirking. With a black dragon by your side, you seem to have nothing to fear.”

“Well, I don’t think it was any different when Murakan wasn’t there in our first meeting. If you went all the way then, would you have been able to find this place alive now?”

Rob turned around without answering. It was the judgment that if you messed up while dealing with Jin, you could be wrong with Murakan.

“Tell the Dark Knights. I am always open.”

“Black helmets will never be your sword.”

“You listen carefully too.”

After Rob left, the mercenaries on duty signaled to enter the drawing room of the Dark King.

“Come in.”

“Just in case, Murakan.”

“What?”

“Even if the head of the Dark King isn’t as polite as you expect, you shouldn’t say things like opening your eyes kindly or giving your chin back.”

“…Am I stupid?”

“I’m just worried.”

“Sheesh.”

The reception room boasted a vast majesty, so it was surprising that such a space spread out at the end of a not very wide hallway.

Dawn moonlight and starlight poured from the impressive ceiling with large glass. A dreamy sight that doesn’t go well with the dark job of a mercenary.

Beneath it, the leader of the Dark Kingdom, ‘Valkas Cran’, sat at the desk and greeted the two.

The great mercenary of the Gaifa Islands, Amela, the leader of the Dark Kingdom, and Lata Froch, the captain of the ghosts of Balkas Cran. Among the world’s three greatest mercenaries, he competes with Amela for supremacy.

‘It’s definitely a much more powerful feeling compared to Rata.’

My first impression of Valkas was that he seemed taller than Jin even when he was sitting.

Jin didn’t know much about him beyond the world. In other words, what legendary majors he had before he became the general manager, how great he was, and what kind of personality he had. I knew only that much.

It was because there was nothing to encounter in the previous life or in the present life. He is not a person with a lot of information known to the outside world.

– Balkas Kran. Hehe, he’s more romantic than I thought.

-yes?

-Should I say that I love my family so much? It’s the world’s best mercenary squad, but that’s why the Black Royals are generally friendly.

-okay.

-The problem is that the rest of the human beings, except for the family, are only treated as clients who give money or as living meat.

I remembered what Talaris had commented on Valkas before I found the Black King Wildlife.

‘Is it because Zephyrin makes such a mistake that he ends up getting scolded because he cares about his subordinates?’

Or was it because Balkas was also suspicious of Zephyrin and ordered to keep an eye on it?

seemed to be the latter. No matter how much they cherish their subordinates, the Black Royals are also a group known for their strong discipline and sharpness.

Valkas raised his hand and opened his mouth.

“Welcome, the 12 Horsemen of Runcandel.”

“It is an honor to meet you, Sir Barkas. Thank you for your hospitality.”

“It’s even welcome. Is the person next to you a great black dragon?”

Despite the slightly disrespectful tone, Murakan nodded silently.

Fortunately, Valkas did not commit any further rudeness.

“Your subordinates have been talking a lot about you. It seems that the memory of escorting you as a child remains as a pretty pleasant memory for the guys from District 3.”

“Is that so?”

“And even if it’s not necessarily my subordinates, isn’t Runkandel 12 Horseman the hottest person in the world right now? There is bound to be a story going around everywhere. I was curious and wanted to meet you at least once.”

Jin and Valkas. The two smiling eyes met.

For some reason, Jin felt that he was seeing through what kind of request he had come to entrust.

And that feeling became a fact within seconds.

“The reason you found me is probably to entrust you with a request to protect the Free City of Tican. Am I wrong?”

I was embarrassed inside, but Jin nodded his head without showing it.

“You’re almost mistaken for saying I sent you a letter with the contents of the request in advance. Yes Sir Barkas.”

Jin’s need for ‘Tican protection’ was an issue that most of the world’s powerful people were aware of to some extent.

Barkas also couldn’t be unaware.

Above all, Barkas was more conscious of the problem because Joshua’s agent had just visited.

“Unfortunately, it seems difficult to accept that request.”

“You haven’t even heard of the terms, have you?”

“That’s true, but it means you’re a step behind.”

Joshua didn’t send someone to subdue the Dark Kingdom.

The Black Kings sent a person to urge them not to ‘accept’ Jin’s request.
