Swordmaster’s Youngest Son - Chapter 758

Chapter 758,

Chapter 186. The Bamal Alliance and the Minche Blacksmith Association’s double slope (1)

Anvil’s sudden and extreme low posture made the party momentarily dumbfounded.

Even Anmoru was not enough to kneel down, he even bowed down on his face.

When I looked closely, tears were dripping down the floor.

At least Anvil kept the dignity of the leader in his own way and was thrilled.

Because the members of the association lying down next to me were bursting into tears.

‘Crazy things seem to be working out much better than expected, so that’s nice, but you don’t even need to do the bare minimum check?’

‘These cheeky guys do this as soon as they hear the name Picon Minche? Are you crying?’

As of now, even a single grain of sand on this island belongs to Picon Minche

.

If there really was more steel than the Bamal Alliance possessed on the Blacksmith Island, there would be nothing to complain about to Kingelo.

[Will you give me everything?]

“Of course!”

[Is it really okay?]

“Picon, our Minche Association consists only of those who are truly determined to inherit Picon’s will. The words Picon said a thousand years ago are still hotly imprinted in our hearts.”

What did I say?

In fact, Picon wanted to ask about it, but he coughed and waited for Moru’s next words.

“Don’t leave the forge. Concentrate only on forging weapons. Until the master appears.”

That was what Picon often said to his students a thousand years ago.

Of course, the ‘master’ Picon said did not mean himself.

At the time, Picon watched his students who lacked talent get discouraged, and said that somewhere in the world, there is someone who thinks your weapon is the best, so don’t give up and sell yourself. After all, there were many cases in which reverse works were created.

For about fifty years after Picon’s death, the intention was accurately conveyed to future generations.

However, as the years passed, the first words of Picon gradually changed, and Moru, who did not know the inside story, interpreted Picon’s meaning like this.

“Our association has been waiting impatiently for such a master to appear who can advance the blacksmiths of this world to the next level, and therefore can be said to be Picon’s reincarnation. That is why the association has maintained a three-person management system without appointing an iron king for the past thousand years.”

What else is the iron king…?

Picon put up with that question and smiled as naturally as possible. Yes, you made such an expression that you have followed my will well.

When Picon was alive, there was no title called Iron King.

The horse symbolizing Picon was also a legendary blacksmith.

In any case, according to Anvil, all the Fire Anvil Hammers known to the heads of the Society were temporary.

Waiting for the birth of a blacksmith that everyone would recognize as Picon’s successor, the seat of the Iron King, the real leader, had been left vacant all along.

In the meantime, Picon Minche, who is not a descendant of Picon, himself came to the association as a blacksmith god, so he had no choice but to react so strongly.

From the association’s point of view, the Iron King, who had been waiting for a thousand years, had finally returned.

[Um… that’s great.]

As soon as Picon spoke in a solemn voice, Moru and the association members raised their heads.

Each of them had wet eyes that were shining brightly. It was like people who had been saved.

Then, Moru shook his head in amazement again.

“ah! Oops… I don’t know if I’m overjoyed enough to say something presumptuous. Picon, if you’re uncomfortable accepting our blacksmiths’ assets…”

Jin quickly stabbed Picon in the side.

[It is not. I will guide you again from today.]

It was a random word, but the effect was perfect.

“It is the greatest honor to be born! Come on, I’ll take you inside!”

Before moving, the association members took out small trumpets from their pockets and blew them. It was a trumpet that announced that the official document of the Barmal Union was true.

As soon as the trumpet sounded, the dark island suddenly became bright.

Flames were burning all over the blacksmith shop, which occupied 80% of the island’s total area.

The members of the Association who were waiting at the forge were busy moving their feet and preparing to greet Picon.

In addition, Moru’s attitude towards Jin has changed.

“Please forgive my rudeness earlier, Lord Soga. I really brought Picon-sama, so from now on, Soga-ju is like our benefactor.”

“Thank you for saying that.”

I am? Siris wanted to argue that way, but he lost his temper. I was so stunned that I couldn’t even speak.

At the entrance of the smithy, all blacksmiths of the Association were lying side by side.

‘There are no fanatics.’

Although it was a bit excessive, Jin smiled at the feeling of gaining a reliable ally.

As in the Anvil, there was a sea of crying for a while, and Picon gave encouragement while watching the executives introduced one by one.

No one doubted Picon.

There is a reason why the appearance matches perfectly, but Picon looked at the equipment and weapons in the forge and recognized its use and completeness at once.

Even with just a few conversations during the process, the blacksmiths admired Picon’s inner workings.

[Why did you choose this island as a sacred place for blacksmiths? This isn’t even my hometown.]

After the various rituals and greetings, Picon asked serious questions on behalf of Jin.

“Would it be all right if I gave you an answer in the place where the small palace master is not present?”

[I will personally guarantee the small palace master. And from now on, I want to be courteous to the lord of the palace. He is my guest.]

“I will.”

Perhaps even Shiron or Talaris Ron would have been at a loss for words if they had seen this scene in person.

Sirius shook his head and sighed inwardly.

“The reason we set up our headquarters here is because of Haegang.”

[Haegang?]

“It means steel from the sea. The Society’s headquarters became on this island about three hundred years ago. Since there is no area with more sea rivers than here, we decided to make it our headquarters.”

[I know the existence of Haegang, but it must be something that is too difficult to collect. I heard that the current association has more steel than the Empire or any other great power.]

“It’s half right and half wrong.”

[Let me explain.]

Even at the moment when the biggest secret of the association had to be revealed, fire and other executives did not hesitate.

“First of all, sea river mining is done through a monster that uses the sea as its main territory. It’s a monster called Vilam, and it’s a friend that the executives of the past embraced. Although it is a monster, it has a clear ego and has no intention or reason to harm humans.”

“You mean such monsters exist?”

The officers nodded at Jin’s question.

[Yes, Sogaju. His staple food is marine life and seaweed. Since most of them live in the deep sea, they are not noticed by people.]

Then, they were more beneficial beings, closer to spiritual creatures than monsters.

“A long time ago, Bylam made a deal with us. Originally, winds need to sharpen their teeth periodically, so they have a habit of gnawing on the sea river at the bottom of the sea.

“So you’re saying that when you brought Haegang, you processed some of it to make a chunk of steel for Vilam’s bruxism?”

“Exactly.”

Haegang buried in the waters near Blacksmith Island is close to infinite.

Normally, the cost of mining and processing far outweighs the value of Haegang, so no one covets it.

The association was the only group that could quickly process such a large amount of sea steel.

The fact that monsters and humans could coexist in this way was something he never thought of.

“It is a strange story. You managed to hide this fact all this time.”

Officers led the party to the basement of the smithy.

There was a huge opening and closing device in the center, and when the officials pulled the bar, the floor cracked open, revealing the sea. It was a space large enough to accommodate several sailboats.

Since there was such a space, the sight of Bailam supplying steel to the association had never been revealed to the outside world.

“Thanks to this background and the mindset that Picon has inherited, our association has never had to complain about anything. Not too long ago, it would have been fair to say that the Society possesses the most steel in the world.”

The group let out exclamations while keeping their eyes on the turbulent sea.

Jin admired too, but he felt an intense spirit rising from the sea.

“Looks like Wind is stained with chaos.”

At those words, the officers frowned as if their hearts were hurting.

“…exactly. Vilam and the association are no longer just symbiotic, but friends now. The chaos that spread in the world as the Geomhwang Temple and the Chest Temple continued, made Bailam sick.”

The fire blew several trumpets into the sea, and the sea level stirred and foamed.

After a while, the floating wind had a shape very similar to that of a huge whale.

[Piyi ….]

The crying sound was similar to the whale, and the overall rounded was not as threatening as the executives said.

However, black spots of chaos were visible all over the body.

Vilam cried incessantly as if in agony.

“If wind doesn’t get better like this, of course, you won’t be able to mine Haegang anymore. All of the Society will mourn the loss of a friend.”

There is joy that Picon has come, but there is also sadness that you may have to let go of your friend soon.

Picon seemed to be choosing her words for a moment, and Siris did not hide her pain at Bylam’s cute but painful appearance.

And Jin looked at Bailam carefully and said,

“Did Bull Wind have any body transformation?”

“What do you mean?”

“Except for the black spots, it means that Vilam’s appearance is exactly the same as before it was stained with chaos.”

“It is.”

Jin smiled.

“I guess I can fix that friend.”
