Swordmaster’s Youngest Son Chapter 541

Chapter 541 Chapter

145. Omen (10)

Inside the castle, priests and medical staff were busy taking care of the wounded.

Although they had won a great victory in the first match, there were about 2,000 casualties in Geomwangseong. It was impossible for the healing priests to deal with all of them in just two days.

Outside, the work of repairing the defense equipment of the Geomhwangseong was in full swing, led by Amela.

Her equipment recovery speed was unparalleled even if it was called miraculous. Even if there were thousands of gifted professional engineers, they could not match her ability alone.

However, equipment repair was a problem that could not be solved in two days, just like the recovery of the injured.

The dozens of hands formed by takgi did not rest even for a moment after the war, but the restoration was only about 20%.

“Father Barkas! From now on, I’ll just focus on improving and distributing the dragon spears. Since Enya can’t use the flame barrier that hurts, she calculates all the countless variables when she gets hit… No matter how many times she gets hit hard, she needs to find a spot where she can fire at least a couple of times… Haneng!”

She has fought countless wars, but it was the first time she had prepared for a war that felt so meaningless.

“A little bit better than standing still, but this really isn’t like hitting a rock with an egg. If Kelliac is on board, the range of the magic input injection type all-weather crushing cannon will far exceed the dragon spear in the first place. The result is too shabby compared to the effort.”

Geomhwangseong has to fight with lower power than in the first war, while Jiple has the largest power of the family.

In fact, even if Ron was alive and well, even if the Empire did not betray him and was fighting alongside Hiran, it was a fight with no chance of winning.

Only Runkandel was the only one in the world who could do what could be called a ‘fight’ against Ziple, who was doing his best.

“Ghost sword.”

Balkas found Casimir.

“What does it look like to the wonders?”

“Are you talking about Runkandel?”

Even without any other explanation, Casimir immediately understood what Balkas meant.

The Bamal Alliance knew that Runcandel was camped nearby.

Although he had not personally witnessed it, he was confident that Jin’s prediction would not be wrong.

“Since the value of the white stone has been proven by the fact that Ziple’s main force has come forward, we will never stand still like Confucius said. However, Runkandel will want the White Stone to be destroyed in some way during the war without their involvement.”

“I think so too. It’s a dangerous item that even the lord of the palace is wary of due to its unknown use, so Runcandel must be hoping for it to break during the war.”

“No matter what the value of the stone, it is unlikely that the two families will engage in all-out war. It will definitely flow into a negotiation atmosphere… Rather, I think the biggest issue is the choice of Confucius, not the two giant powers.”

Whether Runkandel and Ziple engage in an all-out war or negotiate depends on Jin’s choice.

Casimir understood the situation that way.

“If the lord gives up on his friend and Hailan, there will be negotiations.

“That’s right. And as you know…”

“My lord is never the one to choose the latter.”

“But I’m not the kind of person who will choose the former without any countermeasures, driven by emotion.”

The two nodded at the same time.

“Confucius believes in the family. To be precise, I must say that I am using it.”

Are you really going to take the white stone even while engaging in an all-out war with Runkandel?

will you be able to afford it?

Casimir thought that Jin was putting pressure on Ziffle with his family, Runkandel, behind him.

That’s why the first plan, namely, to rescue Dante and the knights of Hiran and leave the Geomhwangseong failed, but he chose to persist.

So far, Jin has solved almost all adversity with only himself and his colleagues without the help of his family.

In this way, it was the first time he had used the power of his own origin, Runkandel, in its entirety. Even when Rosa is directly conducting.

“If Ziffle takes the pressure and starts an all-out war, Gongja will force the Bamal Alliance and all the knights of Hailan to fall out of the fight. From then on, this war will not be the Sword Emperor’s Holy War, but will be a rotating battle between Runcandel and Ziple, so we will exclude all non-Runkandel allies even by using the family’s force.”

“It’s a lordly way. I’m sure you’ll do as the ghost says. In the event of an all-out war, there could be problems in the process of leaving Runkandel except for Runkandel, so he seemed to want to send everyone out in advance, but the people gathered in Hiran did not back down.”

“What do you think of the possibility that Sir Rosa subdues Gongja and negotiates with Ziffle?”

Casimir was most worried about that.

With the exception of Shiron and the former Dark Knights, the most elite army in Runcandel, led by Rosa herself, is close to strength. The Barmal Alliance now has the power to rise to the 5th power, but it was not enough to protect the camp against Rosa.

“I don’t think you need to worry about that. The master is now the closest rider to Runcandel’s next family head. It is impossible to subdue or punish the lord by force while Ziffle is watching in front of him.”

“Then, Sir Rosa has no choice but to respect Confucius’ judgment after all.”

“My lord is also Runcandel. Even if the methods are different, Lord Rosa and the master have the same purpose as Runcandel. Even if the lord seems to be reckless with the family on his back, it won’t be a fatal problem as long as it doesn’t deviate from the premise that it is an act that blocks the profit of Zipple.”

“…I have a feeling that this war may decide the fate of not only the Black Emperor, but the world.”

“Neither do I.”

“Even if Sir Dante wakes up and we all escape the Imperial Palace, it will only put the situation on hold in the end. all-out negotiations. One of the two is bound to happen. As long as the white stone is not destroyed.”

The white stone is destroyed and the chaos lurking within it never wakes up.

That was the only case that could end the situation as reliably as possible, but Talaris judged the odds very low.

“We just need to focus on supporting the lord in any situation. The master will never give up on his friend, but if he is in danger of falling because of that…”

We must make sure that the master does not fall even if we trample on his heart.

Barkas continued in a dark voice.

The words had many meanings.

If Jin risked his life saying that he would not give up on Hilan even after it went into the worst situation, then even if they would kill everyone in Hilan directly in front of him.

It is to make Jin retreat.

“The lord is obviously a strong man. But that very strong inner side is sometimes the master’s weakness. Even though I haven’t served my lord for a long time yet, it looks like that.”

“…I see what you mean.”

“I can only hope that it never happens.”

It’s past midnight.

Please wake up and restore the majesty of this land. May Dante safely escape from the seal of chaos. May the enemies arrive a little later.

Time was passing swiftly and savagely, laughing at the numerous wishes and prayers of those gathered in Geomwangseong.

“…Zipple headquarters has been confirmed over the Ketu Mountains. We will arrive at Geomwangseong in about three hours.”

The knights who went out of bounds informed the castle that the enemies were close to their noses.

“Sir Casimir.”

“Yes, Confucius.”

“Please return the healing priests to the Holy Land and give orders to Lord Luton and my Guardian Knights to return. In addition, please evacuate all the wounded from the Bamal Alliance as well as those armed with Gilly and below.”

Currently, the official affiliation of the youngest division is Runkandel, not Barmal Union. Luton, who led them, was an outcast, so it was only right to leave the battlefield before Runkandel came to the fore.

The healing priests did their duty.

“All right.”

The name of this war is still the Sword Emperor’s Holy War.

That’s why Jin only commanded the Barmal Union, but the knights of Hiran regarded Jin as their commander.

Jin did not give them separate orders. Strictly speaking, the current commander-in-chief of the Hiran army in the Sword Emperor Temple was Lu Yan, the head of the five sword castles.

However, Lu Yan did not give orders to the knights of Hilan, and she also treated Jin as the commander-in-chief.

There is no need to issue an order because all the knights of Hiran are already standing in their respective positions in a desperate fight, and the reason why Jin is chosen is that as soon as the war started, he put everything aside and brought all of himself to the Geomwangseong. It was a sign of respect and admiration for him.

Before climbing the castle wall, Jin looked at Dante, who was imprisoned in a seal, for the last time.

“Dante.”

The seal of chaos that imprisoned Dante contained a much deeper darkness than the first.

Neither the color of the shining white stone, as if laughing at someone, nor the dull figure of Dante could be seen at all.

Jin was silent for a while with his hand on the seal.

He was afraid that no words would convey his full feelings, and that his friend might hear his troubled voice and affect the war against chaos going on inside him.

Instead, Jin stared at his friend for a long time. You let me know that someone who will never give up on you is standing tall and waiting for you.

It’s time.

Colleagues were approaching Jin to inform them of the arrival of enemies.

“See you later.”

Eventually, when Jin climbed the wall, the five Swordsmen and the leader of the Dragon Knights, Calmine, showed their respect by ignoring him.

“On behalf of Sword Saint Ruyan Hailan, I express my respect and gratitude to you. It is an honor to fight alongside you.”

“The leader of the Knights of the Dragon, Kalmain Aita Hiran and this land will not forget that you were our benefactor even in death.”

Jin slowly met their gaze.

“Jin Runkandel, Commander-in-Chief of the 12th Horseman Barmal Alliance, Runkandel. I am infinitely grateful to Hai Lan and to those who have gathered for Hai Lan for allowing me to fight for my friend.”

Jin raised his eyes and looked at the dark dawn sky behind Ruyan and Kalmain.

I could see the fleet of Ziffle, engulfed in the magical power of flames, all blazing red. It looked like an ominous sun rising.

And in this world, a human who can protect an entire fleet with such a huge and deep flame and show his dignity.

There was only one person.

‘Celiac Ziple…’

The pinnacle of heartless and dirty magic.

He personally led the Ziple and came to Geomwangseong.
