Swordmaster’s Youngest Son - Chapter 661

Chapter 661 Chapter

167. After Temar’s fifth tomb (5),

the two started wandering around the subspace like ordinary siblings looking for something together.

Runtia couldn’t walk fast because she was tired, but after she came back to reason, she was able to feel the ‘different energy’ remaining in the subspace little by little.

[I didn’t know it at all when I was in madness, but now I can feel the chaos and other energy that exists in the subspace more clearly. Perhaps there was a reason why the subspace was broken.]

The other energy that Runtia was talking about was magic.

Even if Jin raised his senses, he couldn’t feel the magical power like Runtia. It was because the confusion was too thick.

If he had to find it alone without Runtia’s help, it would have been no different from finding a needle in the desert for Jin.

“Is Heister seriously injured?”

[Yes, I have nothing to say other than sorry.]

“My sister is not in her right mind. As long as you have your life attached, you will be able to recover somehow.”

[What I’m concerned about is if she accepts the chaos, as I said earlier when I was crazy. If not, you’re injured to the point where you can’t survive. Since my sword pierced my chest…]

“As I said before, there was no marriage skill in the first magic I saw. Even if the recording magic had been deployed prior to being injured, the magic would have been altered or lost if Heister was tainted with chaos. It’s not your fault, so don’t worry too much.”

[You said you wouldn’t be able to turn a blind eye to a nanny, but if it were you… you would definitely have made a better choice than me.]

“No. Rather, if the Prophet was to retrieve Lord Padler from the tomb, then your sister came here in the first place not to pursue Hester. I was shocked to get this hair from the knights guarding the outside.”

[Heister has encountered knights several times in the process of searching for graves. I guess that’s when I got my hair. I took the place of Lord Padler after Ronil Ziple lost her.]

On the day Ronil lost Valeria, Runtia hadn’t yet been engulfed in chaos, and hadn’t even become the owner of subspace in place of Padler.

From the beginning, Runtia was not chasing Heister, but was searching for Temar’s grave, and naturally, Valeria’s movements overlapped.

Rather, it was Valeria who benefited from the search for Runtia that lasted for years.

It was because I got a decisive clue that the tomb was in the Kaldran snowfield while peeping at Runtia’s search.

“That means… It seems that there was a division between the people looking for Temar’s tomb and the people chasing Heister. My sister was the former.”

[It will. Prior to coming to subspace, I was never ordered to kill or capture Heister. I guessed that such an order had been given to the Black Knights or the Black Sword Society’s first group.] The reason

Runtia attacked Valeria in the tomb was purely because she was engulfed in the madness of chaos and couldn’t control her boiling lust. It’s not an order given to her.

Jin finally understood the situation.

The reason why Valeria rushed to the tomb without even leaving any contact with Tikan.

‘Rosa and the Prophet must have thought that Sister Runtia would be reluctant to pursue Valeria. Besides, I was planning to make my sister the owner of the sub-space anyway, so I only made her find the grave so that useless antipathy doesn’t increase.’

For example, Rosa and the Prophet are aware of the bond between Runtia and Jin.

In particular, Rosa looked at Runtia, which had changed since Jin’s declaration as the head of household, and was judging that she could become one with Jin at any time.

So, the best choice for Rosa was to use Runtia as much as possible and tie her to the tomb.

Few people possessed a pure and strong soul enough to replace the Padler.

If Luna had been in the Garden of Swords and had a weakness like Lisham. Rosa would have used Luna to take out the Padler without hesitation.

The time of sub-space and Inse flows differently.

Because of this, Jin was getting nervous as time went by, but he didn’t show it on the outside.

It was because she knew that Runtia was doing her best with her broken body.

And Runtia had no choice but to be alone for a while once Jin left the tomb.

I had to remain alone in this solitary and terrible space, drowning in chaotic madness.

It is unknown when Jin will be able to visit her again.

It is unknown how long it will take for the Chaos Purifier to be able to resolve the total encroachment, and it is highly likely that Rosa will reinforce the borders of the Kaldran Snowfields after today.

While walking, Jin told his sister what had happened.

When Runtia heard what happened in Lapla Rosa, she burst into laughter as if she was envious and happy, and when she heard what happened to Jin after her return, her face became heavy.

[That’s right, Sir Fadler also fought… I can’t imagine how painful it must have been for you every time you dealt with those engulfed in chaos. Sir Lorne, Sir Padler, and even when dealing with me now, it must have been terrible.]

“Of course it’s painful. Still, just as I am having a conversation with my sister like a brother and sister who are good friends, Sir Fadler and I will restore it to its original state. Just like how we finally overcame the chaos together with the deceased Sir Ron.”

[I think I know why Luna unnie cared for you so much. It would have been nice if I had gotten closer to you a little sooner.]

“I also never approached my sister first. Of course, we both liked each other in our hearts after the California State Declaration.”

[It’s been a while since I felt this strange. But… Come to think of it, didn’t you say that the means of entering this place was the sword of a knight named Hedo?]

“That’s right.”

[Ilyna also said that one item was needed to exchange Sir Padler with me. However, unlike the sword you used as a key, it seemed to be a one-time consumable item. I didn’t nail it because there was only one, but I explained it that way.]

“Probably all the items that Hedo’s Sword Prophet used on my sister and Sir Padler were related to the old Runcandel. In my case, I interacted with Hedo’s sword with aura, and my sister must have made the Prophet interact with objects with chaos.”

[I don’t know why Ziffle’s monster butler has such a thing.]

“He didn’t seem to know much about the sword either. If Jiple knew the identity of the sword, he would have managed it more specially.”

[Then, did Hester also have items related to the old Runcandel? She didn’t use any power other than magical power.]

How on earth did Valeria enter this tomb?

Jin has always questioned that.

‘Judging from the case of me and the Prophet, there is a high probability that it will be impossible to enter the tomb even if it is related to the old runcandel, unless you can use aura or chaos. Perhaps the solderlet recording device I gave you became the key.’

I didn’t know until I heard it from Valeria herself.

Runtia’s steps were getting faster than before.

It wasn’t that she had regained her energy, but as Jin was taking care of herself, she too was struggling to find Heister one second faster.

[It looks like it’s getting closer… The disparate feeling transmitted through the subspace is getting thicker.]

Runtia pointed her finger at an empty space in the distance.

[There it is. I tried my best, but… I can’t walk anymore.]

With the connection to subspace broken, she can’t recover her body.

Runtia’s legs were now completely frozen like a stone statue.

[Go, youngest. I’m not waiting here Don’t reconnect me and the subspace… I’ll attack you right away.]

“Okay, sister.”

As I approached the point Runtia pointed out, my heart pounded with both bats.

Now, like Runtia, Jin felt Valeria’s magical power.

Her magical energy was in an infinitely dim and unstable state, like a pulse that was about to go out.

“Valeria.”

Jin stopped walking and called her name.

No answer or reaction came back.

Jin called her a few more times, then closed his eyes and raised his senses and aura.

Thanks to recovering a little bit of spirit while walking, I was able to unleash the spirit sword only once.

I felt like I had to cut through the subspace with that and check it myself.

‘You have to make sure Valeria doesn’t get hurt when cutting the space.’

I read the faint magic flowing out and gauged the depth.

Before long, Jin was able to catch the distance and swung the spirit sword.

Seok-!

space is open.

[No!]

It wasn’t Runtia’s voice.

That voice belongs to Nehru, a Myoman tribe.

“Neru-sama…!?”

I never thought that Nehru would emerge from beyond space.

Nehru was clenching his teeth with his short arms spread wide.

People who want to protect something are making an unconscious action.

[jin…? Are you really Jin Runkandel?]

Jin forgot to answer and looked at the person Nehru was guarding behind him.

Valeria Heister, trapped in coffin-like ice.

As Runtia said, a large black wound was visible in the middle of Valeria’s chest.

“Valeria!”

As Jin entered the space, Nehru rubbed his chest.

[Jin Valeria is now in a state of sealing herself. The wound was so deep that this was the only way.]

Alive.

I thought it would be natural since I had magic power left, but when I checked Valeria with my own two eyes, something hot filled my throat.

“Then, has Nehru been with Valeria all this time?”

[Yes, since the first time I came here. Runtia Runcandel doesn’t know this. What about Runtia Runcandel? Maybe the person behind me…?]

“It’s too long to explain. Let’s get out of here, Mr. Nehru. Judging by the magic power, it seems that the seal won’t last long.”

[Yes, the way out has already been made. Valeria couldn’t move, so she couldn’t go out.]

Nehru took out the cat god’s claw from her bosom.

It was an item that the Myoin Tribe cherished thanks to Valeria in the past in Wantaramo Forest.

When Nehru immediately tried to use her claws to open the door leading out of subspace, Jin turned around and looked at Runtia.

She was waving her hand as if to go.

The two of them were reading each other’s minds without speaking, just like they did in their first meeting after the Gaju Declaration.

‘I’ll be back soon, sister.’

‘Come on, maknae.’

The door leading out of the subspace opened, and Runtia stared blankly at the place where they had disappeared for a while.
