Swordmaster’s Youngest Son - Chapter 498

Chapter 138. Midnight Tower Keeper (4)
No, why is this falling now?
It felt like my heart was sinking.
If the ship blueprints had already been stolen by someone, Runkandel would have been in vain until now.
‘Could it be Joshua? No, considering the time or situation, that’s not the case. Even when he handed over the key, he seemed to have made his own decision.’
Then, all that was left was Kingelo.
‘The reason why there were only four members of the Wraith in the 2nd Magic Tower in the first place was because the rest of the troops went out to track down the stolen blueprints!’
I had no choice but to infer that right now.
However, Hedo’s purpose was still a labyrinth.
-If you have anything from here, leave it there. If you do, I’ll let you live for once.
According to common sense, that’s not something to tell an enemy.
Empty, empty, flaring-!
The fallen key was swept away by the flames and disappeared into the flames. Hedo exhaled as if he was absurd, but it was the perfect moment to misunderstand.
It wasn’t easy for Hedo to immediately recognize what the hell this situation was.
It was because he had the same key that Sandra had given him.
‘Why does Jin Runkandell have the key to the safe?’
As far as Hedo knew, there was only one key. At least it was until recently.
“I don’t know where the 12th rider got the key. What you just said is valid.”
As if he didn’t want to complicate things, Hedo narrowed his eyes and said.
Whether it was a copy of the key, he didn’t know that there was actually a spare, and the Runcandels stole it, or something else. He decided that all he had to do was retrieve the blueprint and send Jin alive.
Right now, on the roof of the tower, Sandra Ziple was waiting for Jin, dressed up in flowers.
Even with a table set in the middle for a dinner for the two of them (Heddo prepared it herself right before the party came to visit), Sandra had an aperitif as a snack in the sight of the exploding secret drying room in the Sota Desert to endure the waiting and excitement. I was sipping.
The veins on his forehead thickened as he recalled that disturbing image.
– Miss Sandra.
-why!
– You must report it.
-What are you looking at?
-It means that you have to report to the head of the house that Jin Runkandel has come to the drying yard. Because the lady is on duty right now.
– Hey, then my husband will die. Or you will no longer be Mr. Jin.
– Probably so. Well, if you look at the survivability that 12 riders have shown so far, it may be something you don’t know.
-So don’t say that bullshit again.
Thinking of that conversation, I thought it would be better to send Jin alive.
I set the table to appease Sandra, but it won’t be enough until dinner.
“I don’t have the blueprints.”
“Didn’t you just drop the key? Don’t make foolish judgments. I don’t want to kill you anyway.”
“It’s a story that brought me to tears. But what if you don’t have one? And you seem to have forgotten.”
We’re still fighting, Tower Keeper.
As soon as Jin continued talking behind his back, the flames became even fiercer. The fires that clung to Hedo’s body caused an explosion, and the flames spread everywhere and began to attack him.
It is a secret story of Sarah Runkandel, who was praised as the strongest among the former Teenage Knights of Runcandel.
Even though it was still unfinished, the sword could not be taken lightly.
For the first time.
Hedo let out a short moan and took a step back. The fire that had already unfolded had a power that far exceeded his expectations.
‘In the first place, preventing or avoiding the deployment of this sword was the right choice. As Gene Runkandel said, were you too complacent? This could be a little tiring…’
I felt the heat of the flames penetrating my body and shield and penetrating my internal organs.
It had been a long time since I felt such pain. Even if I released energy and pushed it away, it seemed that it would take time for this ferocious heat to subside.
The problem was that karma wasn’t everything.
The other Runkandels were also waiting for just such a moment.
“Well done youngest!”
It was Difus who followed up first.
The second meteor shower he opened was pouring down behind Hedo, who had retreated.
And that wasn’t all. The destructive power of the meteor shower is definitely among the highest levels of decisive battles, but it didn’t seem like it would be able to properly hit that giant with just that.
Deepus prepared another sword with the highest degree of perfection among his possessions.
Runkandel’s 5th Secret
Beam Thrust
A sword that she and Mary have honed over and over again.
Flash!
A dazzling flash of light rushed to Hedo’s back before the meteor shower. It was a speed of light stab that reached the extreme, one step ahead of Mary.
Hedo couldn’t avoid Dipus’ sword.
The light-speed thrust that distorted space was piercing his back like a mountain.
Hedo vomited blood as he was pushed forward, and even the beam stabs could not pierce his enormous body, but the entire tower was shaken by the shockwave that rode him and spread forward.
Six such flashes continued.
I would definitely fall into the reflux, but there was no turning back anyway. Difus recognized that this was his last chance to turn the tide.
After finishing the attack, Difus spat out clots of black blood.
Aaaaagh-!
Hedo let out a groan.
I couldn’t tell if it was a scream or a roar. The only thing that was certain was the fact that there was no sign of collapsing even after being hit by the speed of light stab six times along with the meteor shower.
Even in the midst of this, Hedo wielded the long sword Veil to keep Jin in check and was conscious of the other sword he would find next.
‘monster…!’
Then it was Joshua and Jane.
It wasn’t that the six beam thrusts didn’t do any harm to Hedo. Jane, mingled with the meteor shower, approached Hedo and plunged her sword into the wound from the beam stab.
one finger word.
Even if it was just that much, Jane’s blade was sure to dig into Hedo’s wound. Blood splattered and flesh was cut.
“bloke!”
Hedo widened his eyes and pushed Jane away, spraying sword energy. Hedo was stabbed shallowly five times, while Jane was thrown all the way to the wall, shattering her wrist and sustaining significant internal injuries.
Still, Jane was not disappointed. A clot of blood welled up from the depths of his chest, but he finally created a gap by inflicting an effective blow on the monster. very small gaps.
Joshua’s sword was piercing the gap.
“Kaaaa!”
Desperate and full of miasma, the whole hearted power of evil.
No one said that Joshua was the best jockey based on pure brute strength. Luna was always overshadowed by a huge shadow, and among the brothers, public opinion prevailed that he became the next head of the family through trickery and Rosa’s full support rather than swordsmanship.
That’s not a false story.
However, he was clearly Runkandel’s second rider. He was also a person who challenged and defeated the strongest horseman in Runkandel more than anyone else.
For example, Joshua had potential. He gained enlightenment from many defeats and contempts and learned to melt them into his sword.
That was the result.
The black sword, Kainer, was stained with black energy.
It had a shape similar to that of an aura, but it wasn’t as thick, and it was an aura with a unique radiance.
It wasn’t Joshua’s own realm like Luna’s sword, but it was a sword of a special color that he had to touch in order to obtain a secret sword as a runcandel.
Runcandel’s 4th secret
weapon Black
Cross Joshua’s sword drew a cross.
The black, shining sword spread across the perfect cross without a single inch of deviation.
The intersection point of the sword was pointing at Hedo’s shoulder.
Originally, I was aiming for the middle of the face, but it was wrong because of his reaction. However, the Black Cross was not a sword that loses much power even if it misses a little.
The Black Cross is not a two-lined sword like its name suggests.
As soon as the rain started, Joshua’s black sword spread in a huge circle, aiming at Hedo from all sides.
Aaaaaaaaaa see-!
As if snipers who had finished the siege were firing all at once, countless black swords in the shape of a cross gathered at the intersection and began to cut through Hedo.
If Joshua had spread the black cross by himself, it would have been difficult to hit properly.
Indeed, the swords of Runcandel that struck Hedo earlier were not in vain.
At last he was writhing in agony. Although it was small, it let out a groan, not a roar, and it showed that it couldn’t knock out at least 10% of the black cross castle’s many black swords.
If it wasn’t for a warrior like Hedo, his whole body would have been torn into hundreds of pieces with only 10% of that.
“Heh heck heck!”
Joshua sat down and took a deep breath.
‘Damn not enough…!’
Hedo, who started removing the black cross, seemed to be regaining his energy as every second passed.
Although covered in blood, he was not mortally wounded.
“As Black Dragon said, Murakan is Murakan, but Runkandel is Runkandel. I was a little surprised.”
Tue Hedo spat out blood and wiped his face.
[He’s disgusting.]
Murakan was absorbing the flames of the flames with the whirlpool.
By then, the wraiths were barely standing still, exhausted. All the while flames and decisive battles were rampant, they ended up using up all their magic power after only using a shield.
[Hey kid. I guess I can’t do that. No answer. I’ll take the others and jump out and I’ll deal with them and then somehow follow them.]
“It doesn’t sound like a bad plan, but unfortunately I can’t help you, Mr. Murakan. If you don’t want to give up what Runkandel stole, then I have no choice but to reverse my words.”
[What?]
“It means that I will ask for support from my family. I don’t want to waste any more power needlessly. Slowly, the limit of patience is approaching.”
[It seems unlikely, so you say two things with one mouth. Are you going to show off your posture? It’s not that I don’t want to waste my strength needlessly, but it seems like you’re starting to find the battle too burdensome. I was beaten more than I expected.]
“You can think whatever you want. But the Black Dragon knows very well that doing so will not make the situation better.”
[Heng And what kind of bullshit are we stealing the blueprint? We haven’t robbed the safe here yet, huh? This is just being overturned.]
Murakan and the other Runkandels did not see the moment the key was burned, nor did they hear the conversation between Jin and Hedo at that time.
Hedo decided to talk to Jin instead of Murakan.
“You have a knack for making simple problems difficult, Horseman 12. If you continue to be stubborn, you will definitely regret it, so before that, you should know one thing clearly
.
Hedo suddenly turned around and swung the longsword veil behind him. It was because he felt that someone had penetrated his senses and approached him at close range.
It was an assassination attempt.
And there are only a handful of people in the world who can make an assassination attempt against Hedo… One of them is a rare assassin born in the Garden of Swords.
It was Jonah.
