Chapter 513
Episode 141. fall (6)
* * *
Dungeon, lowest level.
Two days have passed since Joshua was trapped here.
The limbs are tied to the wall, and the pupils are unfocused.
A gagged mouth cannot even bite its tongue.
‘This way, it can’t end like this… … .’
But what should I do?
The tied limbs were hammered like nannies serving prospective riders, and the knights they believed in were not themselves, but their mother’s.
The brothers who were close to Mew and Anne did not have the power to save themselves, and neither did the Council of Elders.
You can’t pin your hopes on the hounds raised outside your family.
There’s no way the likes of them could penetrate this dungeon, and in the first place, his hounds didn’t have the terrifyingly blind loyalties of Tymune’s children.
The hounds will lose their focus and collapse.
Now that he has fallen, the other riders closest to the throne.
Runtia, Difus, Mary, and Jin. At least, if they petitioned directly, there would be a little possibility, but that is absolutely impossible.
Even if the father in the Black Sea knew this, the mother’s order would not be revoked.
It was impossible to completely stop eating and drinking and face death like this.
Runkandel’s dungeon is not a place to kill prisoners.
Whether the target is a human, dragon, demon, or anything else. The purpose was to confine the prisoner in complete solitude until the end of his life.
If they refuse to eat, they are forcibly consumed, and even attempting suicide is not allowed.
Even the Prophet will not be able to get himself out of this place.
‘I can’t do anything. I can’t rely on anything.’
At least, if there is only one hope.
‘mother.’
The heartless mother who pushed herself into this hell directly stepped forward.
It was the only way to get back to the ground.
What a profit… … .
The sound of the door opening on the lowest floor could be heard in the distance.
Joshua fixed his bemused eyes and looked at the closed door.
Expecting that when that door opens, Mother will come in.
It wasn’t long before the door to the prison where Joshua was was opened.
“What is this, 2nd Horseman… … Ah, you are no longer a rider.”
A voice like an old snake.
It was Jorden Runkandel.
He tutted and clicked his tongue as he removed the gag from Joshua.
“How does it feel to fall?”
“Chairman Black Sword… … !”
“Don’t look at me with those eyes. I didn’t come here to make fun of you.”
Jorden then freed Joshua from the wall.
“I’m not imprisoned, but I’m in a similar situation to you.”
“What is that?”
“I mean, I lost all my limbs. She wasn’t publicly humiliated like you, but her pride was trampled to the ground. To the acting head of household.”
Black Sword Society, a family punishment unit made up of especially strong elders.
Jorden was no longer their leader.
He still holds the position of Black Sword Chairman, but the command authority has completely passed to Rosa.
Of course, all the original family forces were in the hands of the family head and the acting head, but Jorden could no longer personally move the Black Sword Society under any circumstances.
It was because of the exile case.
“Me too, you too. You got hit by the 12th Horseman.”
“I am.”
“Are you trying to say that you are here not because of losing to the 12th Horseman, but because of the acting family head?”
Joshua couldn’t answer.
“Stop admitting it. we lost Perfect too.”
“… … What does the Black Sword Chairman plan to do in the future?”
“Fortunately, the neck is still attached, so let’s plan the next one. I’m asking for the obvious and… … Aren’t you the same?”
“It’s the same… … As far as I know, Chairman Black Sword has never experienced a fall like this. Having been treated worse than a bug by your father and surviving miserably? Having gnawed at yourself with the vain desire to eventually become the head of the household? Did he lose the black sword? None of that compares to the cold floor of this dungeon.”
Fisik, Jorden let out a laugh.
“You might think so. I mean kids like you.”
“Hey, I didn’t come here to laugh at you. In the end, you were supposed to masturbate while looking at the loser at the bottom.”
“No, I came because I was jealous of you.”
“what?”
“The acting head of household will come to visit you soon.”
Joshua’s eyes widened.
Now it seemed that Jorden understood the meaning of what he had just said.
“If you show your mother something worse than a bug, like you are doing to me now, then it might really be the end. The reason I came beforehand was because I was worried that something like this would happen.”
“Mother… … Did your mother say you were looking for me?”
“Mother, mother, mother. You are really, fundamentally, a child. It’s embarrassing to use the same last name. I never had a mother like you. Besides, my competitor was not the 12th jockey, but the jockey Chiron Runcandel. Once they fall, they have spent many years never being able to rise to the ground again.”
A bitter smile formed on Jorden’s lips.

“Now is the time for you to bear the weight too. When I come out to the world again after finishing the training in the closed hall… … I wish I could see you cast off your fragile shell.”
“Close-up training? Do you believe that now you can turn things around with something like that?”
“What dominates the samurai is an overwhelming martial art that, in the end, anyone has no choice but to follow. I too used the shadow cast by your father as an excuse to ignore the fact for too long.”
Jorden turned around.
“It is up to you to turn Hell into Purgatory. This is not as the president of the Black Sword, but as a party master.”
Jorden has escaped the dungeon.
And on the way up the stairs, I ran into Rosa, who was descending into the basement.
“Acting Governor.”
“You didn’t come down to look at the ghosts in the dungeon. Have you met Joshua?”
“exactly.”
“You did something stupid.”
“Since your parents are heartless, you should treat someone warmly.”
“Have you regained your confidence after losing everything? It’s okay for you to say such arrogant things.”
“I just remembered the essence of the family I had forgotten about.”
“If many people hadn’t forgotten from the start, today’s Runkandel wouldn’t have been so dangerous.”
“Even the acting head of household has not become dull.”
As if it were funny, Rosa smiled.
“The words of a powerless person are nothing but complaints. Let alone my sword and body, if you want to blemish my mood. Prove it. I mean, try to perfect that lowly sword of yours. That’s why you left the neck.”
For a short time when Rosa passed Jorden and entered the lowest floor.
Joshua remembered what Jorden had just said and what Jane the Black Knight had shown him before he died.
– I hope my appearance now will be a lesson.
Jane’s will and the visit of the Black Sword Chairman.
They couldn’t change the essence of Joshua Runkandel in an instant.
It’s just a hot topic.
When Rosa entered, Joshua straightened up.
“Are you here, Acting Governor?”
hooked!
Rosa suddenly thrust a frenzied blade into his right shoulder.
“100 million… … !”
The flesh split and blood gushed out.
Then, a light and fast swing of the sword left a cut on Joshua’s left shoulder.
Fear came again.
A fear of parents that he has never overcome.
A new fear caused by the indiscriminate attack of a mother who seemed to never let go of herself.
“You say your powers have been abolished, but you mean you can’t even react to a sword like this? It was a speed that even senior cadets could dodge.”
“Go, Acting Governor… … !”
“Yes, but now you dare not call me mother. But is that all? Your sisters and brothers, those children who were incomparably better than you, would have avoided it.”
The frenzy swung again, this time cutting Joshua’s chest.
The depth the blade dug into was never shallow.
“Cuck!”
“No, did I just barely avoid it? Runtia, Difus, Mary, and Jin! Rather than screaming like you, those children would have opened their eyes and tried to fight back. Whatever the reason, no matter who did the wrong thing, I was stabbed once!”
Spaw!
“And if it was Luna, she would have taken the frenzy and aimed it at my neck in reverse. If it were that child, wouldn’t he be able to do so even if he lost his strength? So, didn’t Shiron and I regret it so much?”
Being stabbed and cut was really nothing, and the terrible pain was devastating Joshua.
It seemed that it would not be more painful than throwing my bare body into a pit of fire.
The pain of comparison and inferiority was really nothing to compare even to him.
“Aagh! What the hell are you saying to me!”
Joshua, who ran at random, had his jaw turned and his sternum destroyed.
It wasn’t a counterattack, it was an outburst.
“Cuck, heck.”
“Why can’t you guys do that? You, the Child of Prophecy, why couldn’t he do that?”
For the first time in his life, Joshua blamed his mother.
“you… … me… … I grew up like this.”
“I don’t remember raising you like that.”
“You’re right, you raised me like this!”
“No, I didn’t raise you that way.”
“And wasn’t it you who gave birth to me like this? Luna, Runtia, Difus, Mary, and Jin! Didn’t they pass on their talent to me? It’s all your work… … !”
“Talent? Yes, Luna will admit it. But do you think the rest of the kids are really more talented than you and put you here? You just didn’t struggle as much as they did. Even after giving so many opportunities… … ah. If you say this, you will now say that those opportunities were poison, right?”
Rosa let out a laugh.
Joshua fell forward, shaking his body.
I wanted to stand up again, but my frenzied, mercilessly cut and stabbed body refused to listen.
“I will admit that too. Now that I see it, the opportunities I’ve given you over the past few decades seem poisonous. I didn’t know that scooping and feeding would not be enough. If I had known in advance that I would have to chew on it instead, you might not be here right now.”
“that is… … what… … sound.”
“To the Sota Desert that day, to that important mission… … Did you really think I would only send you two riders and the Black Knight?”
