Swordmaster’s Youngest Son - Chapter 507

Chapter 507,

Chapter 140. It was a development that no one thought of,

real or fake .

However, Jin had intended to use Joshua this way since the escape began.

It is a crisis that someone can overcome only by making sacrifices. And, of course, the only person in the group who didn’t mind dying was Joshua, the clone.

With a desperate heart, he wanted to save Jane too.

However, Jane was already in a state where she could not be revived without the legacy of Numerus, and she alone could not realistically secure meaningful time against 10 Wraiths and additional troops.

A short silence passed.

“I thought so even if you didn’t tell me.”

Soon after, Joshua answered in a calm voice, and even Jane looked back at him startled.

It was Difus who was most shocked.

“what? Are you serious, Joshua?”

“You cannot survive if you are with me, the Second Horseman.”

“It’s rather fortunate that I risked my life now, rather than fighting the Tower Keeper.”

“What are you thinking, Joshua?”

“It’s what you see, Difus. I’m just making a choice for my family. If you’re unhappy, why don’t you step in instead of me?”

“There can be no complaints. He said the troublesome thing would go away on its own. However, I know better than anyone else that you are not the type of person who would give up your life so easily.”

It wasn’t time for a long conversation.

“See you later, 2nd rider.”

Poof!

Joshua tossed the black sword Kayner, which was worn around his waist, to Jin. It was the idea that even if the clone died, there was no need to lose the sword.

“Go back and get it.”

“I also thought that the sword was a waste, but if this is the case, how will we fight…”

The moment Jin said that.

Suddenly, Joshua’s eyes turned black, even to the whites of his eyes.

-If it’s still not enough, you should consider using that power…

The thoughts Joshua had in his mind while fighting Hedo.

It was the power he hesitated to use in the battle with Hedo that now dyed his eyes a muddy black light and formed a new sword in his grasp.

‘Joshua, what is this!?’

‘What is this? I think it’s similar to the power a bush uses?’

‘…Takgi?’

What was wrapped around Joshua seemed similar to Amela’s taunting experience in the Gaifa Islands.

However, Joshua’s Takgi, which had a much deeper and more refined feel, was almost the same color as Aiki.

‘It was expected to some extent that the Prophet was deeply related to chaos… but could it be possible to strengthen others in this way using takgi?’

The wands of the wraiths who formed the ranks emitted pure white magic rays all at once. It was a focused attack on Joshua, who was just starting to move.

And the party was shocked once again to see him easily block or knock out all the magic rays with a shield.

‘This can’t be his skill. Is this also the power of a prophet?’

Dipus narrowed his brows.

Joshua is definitely not at the level of being called an unmanned or superhuman belonging to a very strong axis.

He even suffered internal injuries from a fierce battle so far, so it was impossible to beat the 10 Wraith’s attacks so lightly.

[I can’t stay in this state for long. I will hold on to his ankles as much as possible, so make sure to bring the stolen items back to the family.]

Knowing that he was a clone, Jin and Murakan were calm, but Difus felt strange.

I had always hoped for Joshua’s death, but I never thought that the end would be like this.

Of course, he was a little bewildered, but in fact, there was nothing sentimental about realizing that he had feelings for Joshua, not hate, but love and hatred.

“I don’t know what you mean, but I think we should go quickly before you change your mind. Brother, if it’s possible, decorate it nicely even for the last time. Because it is still in front of enemies. That’s not going to happen, but if I ever come back alive, then I’ll kill you myself.”

Before leaving, Jin and Deepus put a sword on Jane’s back.

She was swinging her sword at a new beam of magic that was fired towards the party.

Bad-!

A fast and accurate seed slash that is unbelievable for a sword wielded while standing on the verge of death.

Jane was burning the last will of her whole body. Like a fire that reveals an even greater light just before it goes out, her sword surpasses the realm it has reached through a lifetime, even for a moment. I went one step further. With the value of duty on their backs.

Then, the three wraiths approached to block her. The rest looked like they were trying to hit Jin’s party, who were already getting farther away.

[Aren’t you overly underestimating Runkandel because it’s a close battle?]

Kagang-!

Two of the staffs falling towards Jane were intercepted by Joshua’s sword. The remaining one, which turned into a spear and rushed in, was deflected by Jane.

[Besides, the black knight.]

Spark!

One of the three who rushed in didn’t hear Joshua’s words.

It was because Jane’s head fell from a single flash that dug in reverse. She too was stabbed in the shoulder by digging too hard, but that did not blunt her final resolve.

When the head of a colleague fell, the Wraiths showed a hesitation.

Even though it was a swordsman’s black helmet, he hadn’t even thought that he would produce such a result with a single sword with a body that was already close to that of a corpse.

Everyone in the Observatory had expected that Jane would not be able to inflict even meaningful injuries, let alone decapitate those who rushed at them.

‘What is this? Mortan died in a single sword?’

‘How the hell just standing there is a miracle!’

‘This is especially unpleasant for Runcandel. An incomprehensible force that sometimes manifests like this…’

Jane only said this while looking at the wraiths controlling the distance again. Forcibly fitting his shattered shoulder together.

“I can’t pass… Zipple.”

While his entire body was torn and shattered, only his eyes shone blue.

The remaining nine wraiths met their eyes and felt a chill run down their spines. Even though he lost one person, he still had an absolute superiority, but his lungs seemed to be stuffy with an indescribable chilling sensation.

Some stay and some chase the fugitives.

Considering the power difference, you can choose any number of such options. However, the wraiths were overcome with a strong intuition that irreversible damage would be suffered if only four or five were left.

‘Not only the Black Knight, but also Joshua Runkandel is suddenly in a state of inactivity.’

‘We shouldn’t lose a member like this again. The 4 5 6 team and the main force will arrive soon, so we will definitely finish them off here and resume the pursuit!’

‘Even Sandra Ziple probably won’t help her escape by falling into a crazy love game until the very end. Even though I can’t be of any meaningful help by myself without any hesitation.’

The Wraiths reorganized their ranks. Those who tried to chase Jin’s party also opened their magic in earnest and drew a magic circle.

“You must be in the mood to do it right, ghosts.”

[It’s an honor to be with you in your final fight, Sir Jane.]

Joshua stood back to back with her.

“…two riders. It seems the rumors were true.”

Jane said that before thanking him for participating in the war.

[Rumor?]

“That Kyung’s body is not one.”

It was just a dry tone, but Joshua clearly sensed the deep contempt hidden in it. It was the first time he had seen the black knight show his emotions like this.

[…is that wrong?]

Jane didn’t answer.

[No matter what Kyung thinks, I’m realizing the family’s highest value in my own way.]

Even though she had a heart to serve Jin, it was no lie that Jane had followed Joshua under Rosa’s orders.

It was because it was considered the way to dedicate loyalty to the family.

But she is also a person. It is also on the verge of death.

Disappointment was unavoidable.

“Is the struggle to say that?”

[That’s right.]

The sky was dyed red by the magic power spread by the Observer.

The ‘Red Abyss’, a linkage magic exclusive to the Wraiths, that Jin experienced in the past when he first met them is unfolding.

Whoa…

Jane took a long breath.

“It’s devastating… You should be ashamed of it, Joshua Runcandel.”

Particles of red magic that spread from the sky like bloody rain turned into swords and chains and rained down on the two of them.

Jjoong Tung-!

Jane’s first move against Red Abyss was to slash the red blade that landed on Joshua’s back.

Crying!

At the sight, Joshua felt something familiar, yet terrible, rise in his heart.

weird feeling.

A monster that has settled down deep inside one day and has never backed down from there even once in its entire life.

[You’re just talking about knowing what… what the Lord knows!]

Joshua shouts as he cuts off the chains falling on Jane’s head. Two black eyes were shaking.

“Fortunately, that is.”

[Despite the severe contempt that my father, sisters, and sometimes even my mother showed, and thousands of frustrations, I never gave up. It was more desperate than anyone else!]

“It means that I gave my last glory for the real one, not the fake one.”

The swords of the two men were constantly crossing each other.

As they cut off the red blades and chains falling squarely at each other, if they didn’t look closely, it would be mistaken as if they were swinging their swords to cut each other.

[Why don’t you acknowledge me…! nobody nobody! No one…!]

At the roar of the two swords and the nine people’s magical powers colliding, the cries close to screams continued to scatter in the air.

How much time had passed like that?

Eventually Jane’s flame went out.

hooked!

The blade of the red abyss pierced her back.

Until just before that, he swung his sword ferociously like a haunted ghost, but it suddenly stopped moving.

Now, her body has reached a stage where it cannot be helped by will or any other transcendental thing that humans can have on their own.

[Damn Jane!]

Joshua reflexively extended his sword, but it was impossible to protect her, and even if he did, it would be meaningless.

At the moment when the chain and the blade are about to slaughter the dead body.

Jane took one last look at Joshua.

I hope my appearance now will be a lesson for you.

That’s how Jane, the black knight of Runcandel, met her end.

The remaining fake continued the battle alone for a while in the red abyss where her corpse was scattered.
