Swordmaster’s Youngest Son - Chapter 560
Chapter 560,
Chapter 147. Gleek, King of the Black Sea (4)
Gleek.
It was clear that the king of the Black Sea, who existed in the form of a white stone, had awakened with Dante as his vessel.
As he said, it’s very likely that his body has already disappeared, but he didn’t know if even a part of his consciousness would remain.
Of course, it could have been an illusion.
It may be that the desperate heart that wishes that a friend is alive is clouding reason.
However, Jin couldn’t understand the fact that Gleek hesitated momentarily when the huge sword of chaos attacked him.
‘Is it because I just woke up and my condition isn’t perfect?’
Jin was aware that Gleeck was not all right. Although this was the first time seeing him, it was because his twisted body was full of defects.
Above all, Gleeek mistook Jin for ‘Solderette’.
‘Obviously speaking as if he knows Solderlet well, and even though he hates it extremely, it means that there is a problem with the opposite sex as well.’
That fact sent chills down my spine. Even though he didn’t wake up in perfect condition, he overwhelms everyone on the battlefield, so it’s inevitable.
Woooooooooooooo…!
Rashid, dyed in gray, lifted Gleek’s upper body. A mighty blow Ron was able to break several of his swords and spears for the first time since Gleek had awakened.
The broken weapon fell like a landslide and hit the ground. Ron leapt through the broken weapon once more and slammed Rashid through his face.
Hundreds of arms blocked his way again, and this time, instead of manpower, a repulsive force generated and pushed him away.
Ron was eventually able to leave a long, deep cut on his face.
It wasn’t without cost. Ron was also pierced all over by thorns protruding from Gleek’s face out of nowhere.
Jin and the Dark Knights jumped at the same time to protect Ron, who was in a defenseless state for a while.
There were 14 thorns stabbing his body, and dark red blood poured out from all over his body, but fortunately there were no very deep wounds.
However, the fact that Ron was injured by the gassy that Gleeck reflexively emitted was a problem in itself.
The speed of the thorns felt by Jin and the Dark Knights was clearly not at a level that a knight like Ron could not avoid or parry.
He is physically reaching his limit.
From the start of the second game, he was not normal in the first place, so it was not strange even if Ron collapsed at any time.
“Sir Ron, are you all right!”
Instantly, Jin saw Ron’s pupils blur. He smelled of ashes, characteristic of those nearing death.
“Okay.”
Jin and the Dark Knights looked left and right and behind.
Talaris remained seated, and support from Runkandel and Zipple was still only coming from afar.
It is said that his mind is not intact and he is pouring almost all his attacks on the side where Jin is located.
It wasn’t that Gleeck didn’t care about the rear at all. He kept exploding chaos to the outside to prevent Runcandel and Ziple from approaching.
More than 90% of the energy of chaos is spent on blocking reinforcements.
Therefore, what Jin and the others were enduring were mostly purely physical attacks from the beast.
Ron stood up, planting his sword on the ground. In the process, he suddenly realized that the ground was strangely turning black. Jin and the Dark Knights also saw the same phenomenon.
“The land is…”
It wasn’t darkened by the heat of battle or the gunfire.
‘It’s similar to the Black Sea…’
The Black Sea, the land named Black Sea.
Stam, who participated in Chiron’s Expedition for a long time after becoming the Black Knight, had personally experienced this phenomenon in the past. The phenomenon that the land becomes ‘Black Sea’.
Jin also encountered the same thing when he heard about Ozdok from Picon Minche.
-[As the Black Sea rapidly expanded, Ozdok was covered in the poisonous land of the Black Sea. It must have been buried alive while trying to hibernate.]
The land where Geomwangseong was located is turning into the Black Sea due to Gleec’s energy. To the land where people can’t live…
Kkeudeudeuk!
Ron clenched his fist and grabbed a handful of ground. Instead of black soil, crystals of chaos as hard as rocks filled his hands.
“How far are you going to trample my land…”
The crystals of chaos disintegrated into particles in Ron’s grasp and scattered somewhere. Jin couldn’t say anything to him.
Perhaps all the tragedies that happened in Geomwangseong were caused by his own return, so a terrible sense of guilt was sticking to his heart like rotten oil.
Jiple made the demon stone even before he returned, and the imperial family always looked for an opportunity to push Hiran out, and the white stone was always there.
The Geomhwang Holy War was bound to happen regardless of Jin’s return. Rather, it may be that Jin is now moving towards a better result.
But no one can tell Jin that this isn’t your fault. Jin himself couldn’t think that way, and the sadness the giant in front of him was experiencing was so bitter that he couldn’t dare to measure it.
I just had to fight with all my might. As always, that was the best Jin could do.
The heavy pressure that was pressing on Gleeek was fading.
Tess’ energy was exhausted. Gleeek paused for a moment, as if shocked by the cut in his face, but then swung back hundreds of swords and spears.
And Ron stumbled.
The way he stepped on his wobbly legs was infinitely unstable, so now Jin and the Dark Knights were almost in a position to protect Ron.
After the transformation of the Black Sea began, Gleec’s aura quickly painted the ground black.
Jin was also getting tired. Stam and the Black Knights were better than him as the battle wasn’t that long, but they had to deal with the chaos throughout and rapidly lost their stamina to fill Ron’s vacancy.
What was even more painful was the fact that Gleek’s distorted appearance was becoming more and more stable as the Black Sea transformation progressed.
Its attacks became more ferocious as time went on, and its energy grew expansive. Runcandel and Ziple’s breakthrough had no choice but to be slow.
Kwajik iron puck!
In the end, a black sword that Jin and the Black Knights missed hit Ron. He managed to strike back, but he fell helplessly to the floor with his body floating.
It has already exceeded its limits several times. From the moment he woke up after a long period of unconsciousness until now, Ron has been performing miracles all along.
We’ve only reached the end…
“Sir Ron!”
“12 riders!”
Jin and Stam shouted at the same time. Gene reflexively threw himself to Ron’s rescue, and Stam thought that judgment was wrong.
Stam was right. If you lose your focus while protecting Ron, you will only be giving Gleeck a chance.
Jin thought that Gleeck would target him for overdoing it. Then, with Stam and the Dark Knights, it seemed like he could save Ron even if he got hurt.
However, as the ground became the Black Sea, Gleek was also regaining reason. That’s how he decided he’d better kill Ron first when he had the chance.
Besides, Gleeck’s spear was faster than Jin’s. A huge black spear was falling like lightning over Ron.
‘Fucking, fucking, fucking!’
Jin raised his energy and performed a beam stab. Blood flowed from his mouth and nose, and his secret was.
I couldn’t hit the spear with a gap of one span and missed. In that fleeting moment, Jin frantically resented himself for not being able to intercept such a gigantic spear.
Ron didn’t have the strength left to throw the spear away. The moment the spear blade attacked Ron was imprinted like a slow screen in Jin’s field of vision.
And the next moment, Jin again.
I saw Gleeck hesitate. The spear stopped right before it slammed Ron down.
[This…]
It was an extremely short gap of just over a second, but it was time for Jin to throw himself back and push Ron away.
“Kaaak!”
Instead of Ron, Jin let out a scream as he received the spear. The reflux reaction felt like my bones and intestines would burst, but the relief that Ron was alive made me feel grateful for the pain.
Stam and the Black Knights who followed followed, parried off the ensuing attack. And now they were feeling it too. The fact that Gleec is something strange. But they couldn’t think of Dante.
Ron, on the other hand, was aware of it even as his consciousness faded and his eyes darkened.
Dante… Dante My grandson…
How are you there?
blurry eyes.
Earlier, when I asked if Jin was okay. It wasn’t just that he was tired of Ron’s slurred reply.
At the moment when fourteen thorns protruding from Gleeek’s face stabbed his body, he, like Jean, thought that Dante’s consciousness might remain somewhere in that monster.
I was convinced now.
“I can feel it, Jin. There is my grandson in there, Dante.”
[It’s tenacious.]
Ron’s vision went out.
He lost his eyesight.
“Oh yes, grandfather.”
The flame of the body faded, and all that was left of Ron was the will to blindly love his grandson.
It kept him talking in a hoarse voice, with almost no sensation in his body.
“Lord Ron, there is Dante in there. So you must hold on to consciousness!”
“Dante. I’ll save you…”
Kwadeuk jeoong-!
While Ron muttered, Gleeek was swinging his sword again. Jin and the Dark Knights responded, but if they missed one more attack, Ron would be torn apart without a trace.
Unlike Jin, the Dark Knights saw no point in protecting Ron anymore. It was because it seemed that revival would be impossible unless the tears of Numerus were used.
But Jin stubbornly protected Ron.
“I have to give up rider 12. More than this is impossible.”
“No, I must live. Sir Stam.”
“You really don’t know that you are in a situation that cannot be improved by acting emotionally!”
That’s wrong.
Rather, Jin was making a judgment with almost no emotions now.
The reason he wanted to save Ron was no different.
Kellyac Zipple.
It was because they were aware that the culprit who pushed Hi-Lan into such a desperate fate would soon arrive at them.
‘He… will surely save Sir Ron.’
With the power of the demon stone.
I don’t know if I should describe it as ‘saving’, but one thing was certain. By using the power of the demon stone, Ron can fight again. Although.
Even if it’s far out of bounds.
Stam read Jin’s expression and belatedly recognized his true intentions, and felt a chill in his back.
Jin would rather give up on Ron if it was to come to sorrow.
It must be better to go to rest even now than to lean on a dog-like object called the Demon Stone and force them to fight again.
But what Ron wants is not rest.
What he wants is if Dante’s traces, even a little bit of something that made Dante remain on this devastated battlefield.
It was to fight until it was recovered. There was no need to cover up any terrible and cruel means.
I knew that my grandson was left behind somewhere in that monster.
“Celiac Ziple will take action against Sir Ron and Sir Ron will fight. Above all, this fight absolutely needs Sir Ron. Because the lord is not here. Captain of the Dark Knights, do you really think I’m ruining things because of my emotions!”
Jin barely suppressed his miserable feelings and spoke as if he was chewing.
