Chapter 859,
Chapter 214. Brothers (2)
Runtia Runcandel.
She was currently chained in the subspace of the Kaldran snowfield.
“That’s why I was heartbroken when I heard the news of him.”
Jin remembered how Luna always treated Runtia with difficulty. Runtia was the only brother Luna could talk to even when she was at her most ferocious.
The brothers rode the red owl and headed for Tikan first. It was because a veil was needed to enter the subspace of the Kaldran snowfield.
“You’re a teenage knight from a thousand years ago… It’s good that Lord Bale is helping the family again.”
“Hey what a relief! It just happened because I foolishly placed the wrong ban.”
“If the youngest pampers you too much, tell me.”
“Oh then what happens!? Can you scold a guy who doesn’t even know the ancestor’s favor!?”
“No, nothing else will change. It just means that you should at least complain to me.”
“Sister, eldest sister! Can I call you big sister? Sir Luna. Haha Sandra Zipple, who will become the wife of former Jin. Good luck in the future!”
“Yes, Sandra Zipple.”
“Luna unnie, ignore what that weird kid says. Now that they’re allies, you can’t kill them, and it’s disgusting. I didn’t like it from the first time I saw it in Sota Desert. I should have killed it then.”
“Ah, my little sister is like this again. Actually, I like Sandra.”
“Go away!”
Sandra chuckled as she hugged Jonah fearlessly. In Luna’s eyes, Jonah looked embarrassed like a normal person.
“Oh, my little sister has a cute taste anyway. Is being picky really cute? Hey by the way! Take good care of Mr. Bail Jin, my sisters, and young ladies. If you don’t mind serving him inconveniently or make a mistake, I’ll throw out the muk bowl when you come back.”
“Ha… How did my life get to this point? oh i got it i got it Stop screaming…”
“You’re going to meet a child named Gruntia, aren’t you?”
“Yes, Miss Ameris.”
“Then, I wonder if it would be good to go with this body as well. I thought it would be a little awkward if I joined the reunion of the brothers, but I thought about it from the first time I heard that child’s story. Maybe it can help.”
“I wanted to talk to you first before leaving. Let’s go together.”
So, the brothers and Veil Ameris rode the Red Owl again and headed for the Kaldran snowfield. A blizzard was in full swing on the white snowfield.
Jin was very anxious when he went to see Runtia for the first time after the Battle of the Chest. Because the subspace was full of spirits, and Runtia might have lost her reason and turned into a monster.
But now, for some reason, I felt a sense of anticipation. It was an expectation that maybe Runtia could get out of subspace and return to her family today.
The veil that entered the cave transformed and opened its power. As the golden energy filled the inside of the cave, a dimensional portal leading to the subspace was formed.
‘The marriage period… has faded compared to the last time I came.’
As soon as I entered, I could clearly feel it. Looking at Jin’s expression, the brothers guessed that something good had changed in the subspace.
[Oh… what is this?]
Runtia was emerging from the darkness.
[It’s been a long time since everyone, the day when the brothers are so happy is coming.]
“Runtia…”
Luna and the brothers approached Runtia.
They hadn’t spoken yet, but the brothers recognized at a glance that each other had changed little by little.
[You must have suffered tremendously in the Black Sea, but on the contrary, you have become more harmful than before. Did your father come back too?]
“No, just me and uncle Jed and the three black knights from the previous generation came back first. You are not turning your back on the world like you used to be.”
[Seems like that? That’s how he changed even before he was imprisoned here. Should I say that I have regained some meaning in life since the youngest broke when he declared the title of family member? It ended up like this before I even tried to do anything properly.]
“Hmm hmm! It’s like this, Sister Runtia. You are so cool.”
“That’s right, sister. While my sister is training here, we are also working hard.”
“Since when do these Tona guys flatter me for being close to Runtia?”
“Ah, was Sister Mary close with Sister Runtia? We can get to know each other from now on.”
“Well that’s it. Hey, our Runtia sister. In the past, I was so strong that I wondered when I would catch up, but now there are no answers anymore, right? I just feel it right away, how strong my sister has become. I don’t know who will win even if I fight with my older sister?”
[Not to that extent, Mary. Why is Yona hesitating like this?]
“Heh… That’s because I want to touch her horns.”
When Jonah brought up the topic of horns, the brothers looked at each other in shock. Runtia laughed and tousled Yona’s hair.
Along with the horns, the connecting points that bound Runtia to subspace were also intact.
[If you touch such an ugly thing, you will get dirty, Yona. It will disappear when I get back to my old self. The youngest said he would help.]
“Yeah, I said I would touch it, not because I was cute or pretty, but because I was curious if I could cut it. It’s nice to talk to you hehe.”
[Me too, Jonah. When I go out here, let’s play often from now on. By the way, who is Jin?]
“This is Ameris, sister. You are the one who has been protecting the world since ancient times.”
“I heard that time passes faster here than outside. There won’t be enough time to talk with the brothers, so you’d better go out and hear more about this body later. However, the reason this body came here is to help you, so if you do well, it could be today.”
[Are you saying you can take me out?]
“Looking at your condition, it seems possible. The turbid energy here is lighter than what I heard from Jin.”
At those words, the eyes of Jin and the brothers widened.
In particular, Jin had a strange expectation while visiting this place, but he did not know that Ameris would say that he could give an answer right away. It was believed that liberating Runtia would only be possible after Ban returned.
[Ah, the marriage period suddenly faded a while ago when I looked at the results of my training.]
“It’s probably the result of gaining something special through training and acquiring special powers. Like Jin’s eternality and Luna’s red sword.”
[It’s a special power… I didn’t get any new secret or decisive moves. I just sharpened the swords I was learning.]
“Such power does not necessarily take the form of martial arts or technology. Surely something has changed for you. Think carefully.”
[Ah, I see. A few days ago, when I raised my energy, there was a strange light on my palm.]
“Show me.”
As soon as Runtia started to open its energy, the brothers were surprised once again. An indescribably clear and mighty aura and magic were vibrating the entire subspace.
“Oh, this body’s prediction was correct.”
The eyes of Ameris, who was examining Runtia’s palm, stood out.
[I don’t know what this light means. It’s just a faint light… I didn’t feel like it made my sword stronger at all.]
“This is the result of your will finally manifesting with a form.”
[My will…?]
“If you don’t know, I don’t know what I mean either. Because the will to exist takes different forms when it manifests itself like this. But if you look carefully, this light looks like a star.”
“Listening to Ameris-nim, it sounds like a star. Two in the left hand and one in the right.”
“Hey, it’s really pretty. I have to touch this.”
“You have probably admired the stars for a long time or wanted to become a star yourself. Either symbolic or realistic.”
At Ameris’ words, Runtia briefly looked back on her past days.
‘A star… a star.’
The desire to worship and become a star.
Suddenly, she remembered the stories her nanny, Lisam, had told her when she was a girl.
-miss. Even a lady can become a huge star like Lady Luna. This nanny is dreaming of the day when she finally ascends to the sky and becomes a brighter star than Lady Luna.
It was the day I lay on the hill after being defeated by Luna and stared at the stars.
‘Yes… From then on, the biggest star for me was Luna.’
And after Luna gave up the throne, Runtia lost the meaning of life. I was spending boring days filled with meaningless silence.
A new star called the maknae had risen in her heart. After being defeated by Jin at the time of the Gaju Declaration.
– I wish you luck, lady. It has always been and will always be.
The day after the Family Head Declaration, Lisham had shed tears as she intuited that a new star had risen in Runtia.
‘The two stars on the left are Luna’s older sister and the youngest…and the right hand is myself…’
Runtia turned her head and looked at the stars standing next to her.
“…I think I know what these stars mean, Miss Ameris.”
“Oh Lu Runtia sister! voice is…!”
“Your voice is back like before!”
The Tona brothers screamed as they heard Runtia’s voice suddenly changed. There was no longer the dark resonance characteristic of Chaos in her voice.
The stars she held in her hand were radiating a brighter and stronger light.
And Runtia was realizing.
This is the price you pay for not giving up on your life, even after being betrayed by your mother, sacrificing yourself for Risham, and becoming a monster. He said that he finally became a star like Luna and Jin.
He overcame despair and boredom and seized the light.
“This body’s job was simply to tell you the meaning of the power you gained. It is already being absorbed into those stars.”
The spirit of subspace was being sucked into Runtia’s palms. Then, the appearance of the connection points disintegrating continued, but Runtia did not suffer any damage.
“Oh, it seems it’s your turn to lock the subspace inside you. Even if I hadn’t come, if only you had realized the meaning of that light. You could have gotten out of here at any time.”
The reason Runtia’s star is able to absorb the spirit of marriage is because she wants to keep shining.
It is to swallow up and eliminate the darkness that blocks the light. Runtia’s will, which worshiped and longed for the stars, was shining itself like that.
Soon, the entire subspace disappeared into Runtia’s palm. Stepping on the cave floor, Runtia looked back at her brothers.
Regardless of who said it first, the brothers embraced each other. In the cold of the snowfield, the brothers felt each other’s body heat.
It was the first time he had been born as a brother.
