Swordmaster’s Youngest Son - Chapter 555
Chapter 555,
Chapter 145. Omen (24)
* * *
The recovered Octavia and the Wraith fiercely pursued Jin’s party.
Valkas and the Sword Saints, who were supposed to be in charge of the rear, were already exhausted, but fortunately, Ron’s gray sword was scattered all over the road to the castle.
Curiously, his sword skill did not block allies at all, only oppressing the Observers. Just as a divine being gives help only to those who receive his protection.
Octavia’s tremendous mobility was also obscured by the gray light. Thanks to this, the party moved toward the resistance more easily than expected.
That doesn’t mean it went fast. Shockwaves from giants exploded in the sky, and the ground turned upside down and screamed every time one stepped on it.
As the battle between Ron and Kelliac intensified, the aftermath was being transmitted to the Imperial Palace. And most of it Octavia and the Wraith had to endure.
It was a strange composition. The observatory is like an umbrella covering the retreating Jin party.
Octavia couldn’t help but burst into anger. After the battle on the surface began, she and the Wraith continued to take more damage from Ron and Kelliac’s battle.
‘Lord Hedo said that he seems to be a human being whom Heaven cares for… He seems to have endless luck.’
-If the sky cares for you. It must be because your father has become the sky itself.
Just like what Hedo said to Jin in the Sota Desert, Octavia felt the same way. Unexpectedly, Jin seemed to be lucky.
All in all, the battlefield of the giants caused more damage to them with their backs to the sky, and as soon as the battle began, a reinforcement called Misha came at the right time, and they couldn’t put an end to it until now, when they were strengthened with demon stones.
Again.
Anxiety was overtaking her. The nasty intuition that I wouldn’t be able to kill Jin’s party in the end stuck in my brain like a nail.
It seemed like something else was about to pop out. Someone to help Jin and his friends who are cornered.
‘shit…!’
Even if it wasn’t anyone else, the fact that even Valkas and the Sword Saints hadn’t fallen yet was terrifying.
The Black King Captain and the Sword Saints, of course, were very strong, but they were by no means comparable to himself and the Watchers. Even if they were able to withstand the shock of the giants, they should have been cleared already.
Especially the five swordsmen.
On the outside, they were already invoices. His face was gray and almost black, and his swords were not as sharp as before.
Still, he didn’t die. Since my chest was pierced, this would really be the end. Since my thigh was pierced, my running speed would slow down. Since my leg was pierced, I would now fall… I couldn’t count how many times I had
missed all of those expectations.
Even though he wielded his sword as if he was floundering with his battered body, why and how did he keep defending the rear? And against himself and the Observers!
Even among the Sword Saints, there were those who repeated their consciousness to turn off and return every second, like a flickering magic lamp.
Resistance was getting closer.
After the Demon Stone was unfolded, the Geomwangseong lost most of its castle shape.
However, the tolerance was still almost the same as the first time.
Among the collapsed buildings and broken land, the only intact resistance was somehow exuding a noble aura.
It gave me the feeling that even if the whole world collapses, this is something precious that needs to be protected.
However, even Ron could not block Octavia from hitting him directly. If Jin’s party and the spectators enter the inner castle like this, even the inner castle will eventually collapse.
“I can’t pass by….”
The swordsmen stopped retreating in front of the castle. Jin and his colleagues hesitated and looked back at them.
I could tell without even saying it.
They’ll buy themselves one last minute, so check on Dante and, if possible, take him with you.
The backs of the swordsmen were saying that. They were saying that none of them could survive even if they received treatment right now anyway.
Terrible as a sacrifice thread.
“Yes, the right choice… It will be difficult to really make sense now.”
Octavia said in a low, hateful voice. She and the Wraith were aiming their wands at the Sword Saints.
As they said, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the miracles of the Sword Saints would end here.
Jin turned around and moved towards the swordsmen. As he pulled out the beacon sword Sigmund.
‘My lord…!’
‘Confucius!’
His colleagues are of the same mind as Jin. They also did not want to step on the sacrifice of their comrades and go to the next one.
But I had to make a cool decision. This must have been something the swordsmen also didn’t want. Feeling the energy of Jin getting closer to them, they also wanted to shout, please just leave.
That’s why all the colleagues had to stop Jin, but Jin wasn’t just losing his mind and heading to the Sword Saints because of a pain in his heart.
Won’t you come out anyway?
It was to ask that of his own family in Runcandel.
‘Whoever comes from the family. If I fight together with the king’s reigning sword here, you won’t know that it’s not just the swordsmen who will die.’
It was a kind of threat, as always.
Jin was able to achieve what he wanted.
The moment when the magic of Octavia and the Wraith was pouring down on the Sword Saints and Jin’s colleagues were about to throw their bodies to bring him back by force.
A group of knights who were hiding in the fire blocked the front of Jin and the swordsmen. It was the five black knights.
‘Are you saying goodbye again…!’
Octavia gritted her teeth and glared at the dark knights.
-I think Runcandel will come out to save me, Octavia Ziple.
-certainly. Now you have become such a position in Runkandel.
As soon as they met on the ground, they had a conversation with Jin. In fact, Octavia had Runkandel’s support in mind from the beginning.
And yet, the reason I was shocked now was that I was just sick of it.
The fact that the situation was created in favor of Jin every time made the blood flow backwards.
Aww-!
The swords of the knights cut the magic of Octavia and the Wraith. They, too, must have endured the might of the giants along the way, but they showed no sign of weariness.
On the contrary, his sword spirit, stronger than any active black knight Jin had ever seen, was blocking his way in an instant.
Colleagues were able to sweep their hearts out, and only then did Jin bite a little bit of speculation.
It was a fighting spirit that he raised because he knew that the Dark Knights would never have stepped forward if they hadn’t just shown their will to engage in battle again, rather than just pretending to be with the swordsmen.
“The 12th Horseman.”
Stam’s plain, heavy voice did not lose its vigor even in the midst of the heavy drinking.
Jin had never heard Stam’s voice directly, nor did he know his status, but he knew it instinctively. The fact that he is the captain of the Runkandel Dark Knights.
“You never thought you would bring me out like this. You always have a knack for surprising members of your family.”
Stam’s sword created a fierce resonant sound and pushed away other energy around it. As soon as he appeared, Octavia and the Wraith had no choice but to change their ranks again into a battle, not a chase.
“Stam… Didn’t Rosa Runkandel come in person?”
Stam didn’t answer Octavia and looked back at Jin and the others. As if there was no problem at all even if there was a specter in front of it.
For a few seconds, Stam’s gaze moved back and forth between Jin and the others and the unbroken inner castle. In the end, I reached the figures of the sword saints who were thin and broken in places.
Before being a dark knight, as a soldier and also as a human being.
It was a landscape that had no choice but to show respect.
“Thanks to the 12 riders, I am grateful to be able to pay my respects to you guys. It’s not my intention, but it’s an honor to help you with your end.”
Even if they were moved by them as warriors and wanted to help them as humans, the original mission and family interests were the top priority for the Dark Knights.
Therefore, it was not very appropriate to step forward now, but considering Jin’s injury or death, I couldn’t help it.
“…Sir Stam, absolutely. The day will come when Hi-Lan will repay the favor. Even if a thousand years pass.”
Stam and the Dark Knights appeared, but the death of the Sword Saints was already inevitable.
Jin didn’t know that either. The reason he forced his family into it was because it was necessary. Realistically, he knew better than anyone else that the swordsman’s power alone would not allow him to earn that long.
Stam nodded and met Jin’s eyes.
“Go, 12 Horseman.”
I didn’t ask Stam to make time to say goodbye to the swordsmen one last time.
Since the battle on the ground began, Jin and his companions had already said goodbye to the Sword Saints.
The fight itself was like a long farewell to them.
Jin and his colleagues caught sight of the backs of the swordsmen once and for all and turned to the castle again.
Octavia couldn’t capture them as they left.
“I asked if Sir Rosa didn’t come in person a moment ago, Octavia Ziple.”
Stam pointed his sword and continued to talk.
“You better thank Sir Rosa for sending me instead.”
Stam’s scornful voice pierced Octavia’s lungs.
* * *
Dante Hiran.
In an inner war with the white stone, he was walking on an endless gray road.
How much time had passed, why he was here, what he was resisting… he couldn’t remember those things well anymore.
Am I doing well…?
The fact that he was clearly fighting a fierce battle came to mind. The fact that we had a fierce struggle that cannot be expressed in words.
But now it was calm.
I don’t know why he seduced me, but I couldn’t hear the voice that I thought I should never follow.
You’re doing great. And I had to overcome it….
Suddenly, like a horn, my steps became lighter. I don’t know what I won, but if I keep walking, somehow good things will happen.
After going through such a gray area for a long time, Dante was able to hear a new voice.
Dante…!
Dante!
It’s not a tempting voice that I thought I should never go over, but a completely different, very friendly and familiar voice.
It was a friend’s voice.
‘jin!’
Dante smiled broadly and started running towards the direction of Jin’s voice.
Before it got too far, the voice kept getting closer and I saw a door standing out of nowhere in the gray ground.
He put his hand on the door.
‘But if I open it and go out… is it okay?’
Suddenly, an unknown feeling of uneasiness filled my heart that was beating with joy.
Dante!
He heard his friend’s urgent voice once more, and Dante stopped worrying and opened the door.
And as soon as he passed through the door, White Stone looked at the wide open door and thought:
at las.
that I can go out
