Chapter 652
Episode 165. After impact (6)
Valeria Heister, the last time colleagues saw her was about two months ago.
It’s not the first time we haven’t been in touch for such a long time, but even after the news of Jin’s return spread around the world, there was no way we wouldn’t keep in touch.
Above all, Rosa announced that she had found the artifact of the first family head to attract Jin to the Garden of Swords, and the summoned Padler was presumed to be the guardian who guarded Temar’s fifth tomb.
All clues indicated that something was wrong with her.
“I don’t know why you ask us about your allies, 12th Horseman. Have you lost contact with the Heister survivors as well?”
“exactly.”
Originally, Jin would never have asked Ziple for information about Valeria.
But now was not the time to argue.
At those words, Ronil let out a sigh, and Octavia touched her forehead.
“Judging by the reaction, it seems that you don’t know either.”
“Yes, I don’t know.”
“I’ll have to check, though. YuRia.”
After using the Power of Truth, a blue string formed between Ronil, Octavia, and Yuria. This time, just as Jin was about to be disappointed, Ronil gave him new information.
“Instead, we know the area where Hester survivors are believed to have last disappeared.”
Ziple has been tracking Temar’s grave for a thousand years.
It was the same this time too. While Valeria was searching, Ziffle was also looking for Temar’s grave.
“Where is that?”
Ronil exchanged glances with Octavia. Octavia nodded her head as if it was okay to let her know.
“Hupester, this is a cave in Kaldran, Eastern Region 5. When we got there, there were traces of the use of record magic.”
“Hister survivors left a trail?”
“Yes, the blue spear of the record magic remains in the cave.”
“Have you seen the Blue Window yourself?”
“… … That’s right. I was tracking down Heister survivors myself.”
The Valeria Jin knew would never have made such a lame mistake. Unless it was deliberately inducing traps or disturbances.
“Tell me more about the situation at the time.”
“I located the Heister survivor from afar and tracked her down. As it was within the eastern region 5, the Hester survivors and I were in a situation where there were many restrictions on movement. There was a chase for about three days in the Kaldran snowfields, and she entered a cave with only one entrance and one exit.”
“And disappeared leaving behind the blue window of record magic?”
“Yes, that’s all. There were no signs of escape in the cave. I wondered if the Hester survivor had learned invisible or teleportation magic in the lore, but there was no trace of any other magic except for the record magic.”
“As long as there is no Toad Motra, people cannot disappear like that.”
“We thought that’s why Mort rescued the Heister survivors. Since Secret Palace is no longer neutral, it is no different from an ally of Lord.”
“Did you continue to investigate Kaldran’s cave after that?”
“I couldn’t. Right after that, Runcandel’s 3rd Horsemen started guarding it.”
-I really have to go now. Whatever it is, I’ll send you a letter to Tikan if there’s any further progress. Maybe sooner or later your sister will find a little clue about Temar’s fifth tomb.
What Valeria said before leaving for Lapra Rosa.
Runtia had been tracking Temar’s grave for a long time.
She was also one of three siblings that Jin was unaware of of his ‘current state’.
“For the circumstances, it is highly likely that Runkandel’s 3rd Horseman also knew the location of the Heister survivor. No, I must say for sure. The 3 riders and the knights were camped right around that cave.”
Whoa.
Jin suppressed his emotions and sighed.
The brothers Mary and Tona, as well as the dead Jorden and the survivors, did not know about Runtia.
It was to the extent that Difus took the place of Runtia, the top horseman, to deal with the aftermath of the Gleec subjugation.
‘As expected, Sister Runtia… … Is it stained with chaos?’
However, even though they had never met, they expected Runtia’s condition that way.
Otherwise, there would be no way she wouldn’t run into resistance.
“Sir Ronil, did you not run into Sister Runtia?”
“Because the situation was urgent, I couldn’t check the 3rd rider up close. However, the Kaldran Snowfield was full of knights stained with chaos.”
Yuria revealed that everything Ronil said was true.
The encroachment of Runtia was no different from a certainty.
“What is the possibility that the Heister survivor was kidnapped by Sister Runtia?”
“If the Third Horseman found something in that cave that day that I didn’t, it’s not without possibility.”
Jin looked back at Orgal. Orgal smiled as if he knew why.
“Why do you doubt my ability to move through dimensions? We don’t know anything about Heister’s survivors.”
When Yuria confirmed the Eveliano siblings, it was as she said.
‘If Zipple and Kingelo didn’t know, Valeria wouldn’t have been caught.’
Jin was convinced of that.
‘If Rosa had secured a teacher, she would have already threatened me through it. Even after calling me to the Garden of Swords, I should have used my teacher more.’
In the Garden of Swords, Rosa said nothing further about Valeria.
There were some things Jin didn’t ask, but the crucial reason must have been that there was no way to use her.
Of course, Jin and the great powers gathered here are not the only ones who are tracking Temar’s tomb in the world.
The imperial family, who owns Temar’s left arm, were also looking for a tomb.
‘But if the imperial family captured Valeria, there’s no way Zipple wouldn’t know. As long as they don’t attack Ziple in the back and stick to Runcandel… … .’
Jin decided to ask openly.
“Sir Ronil, is the relationship between Ziffle and the imperial family still the same?”
“The Imperial Family has no ability to catch Hester survivors. The ability to do so without our family knowing is even more so.”
“Jin, you seem obsessed with Hester survivors. You probably don’t want to restore my history through Hester Survivors, or use Ziffle’s manipulation of history to hit the Garden of Swords.”
“Do you think you would think such a disgusting thing? She is my colleague.”

At Orgal’s words, Jin showed some anger.
“Anyway, it seems like the atmosphere will be frantic in finding her for the time being.”
“That is my business to deal with. Now it might be good to go back to talking about the Garden of Swords.”
“No, this is true about the Garden of Swords, Jin. did you forget You are Rosa Runkandel’s only opponent at this point. It means you shouldn’t roll your body recklessly.”
“… … This part is also the same as Lord Orgal in my opinion, Horseman 12. If you’re looking for Heister survivors right now, of course you’ll have to go to East Area 5 first, right? Of course, I think you know better than anyone what state Hufester is in.”
“The world where Ziffle and Kingelo worry about me has come. Especially since Jiple seems to be more concerned about Hester’s safety than me… … It’s strange. I’m saving Heister, of course, because she’s my ally, but she’s also fighting the Garden of Swords. She means you aren’t the only ones who need her powers.”
“Perhaps to further develop the space-time device stolen from us.”
“It’s embarrassing to say that.”
“The family didn’t manage it properly, so there’s no need to do that. But at this point, you might want to reconsider going to Hufester for Hester.”
Ronil spoke without emotion, but Jin heard his calm voice like this. I promise to take it back someday.
‘Even if Zipple is not a history manipulation, there will be other means. Kingelo said that if Orgal paid something, he would surely be able to speed up his recovery.’
The Power of Truth that Yuria possesses is not yet perfect.
It is possible to accurately grasp the extent to which truth and lies are covered, but it was unreasonable to grasp that there is a ‘revenge truth’ that was not intentionally spoken.
Jin didn’t think that Zipple and Kingelo wouldn’t know this, so he was sure there were things he didn’t say on purpose.
Even so, they worry about their safety because that’s the best way.
Even if Yuria’s authority was at a level that could even reveal the hidden truth, this was not a real meeting, but a temporary alliance meeting.
If he had used his authority that deeply, the meeting would have collapsed in the first place.
‘From their point of view, the best ending is to use me to eliminate Rosa without taking out another hand.’
This time, Rosa’s inaction in the garden of swords was transcendent enough to be called a ‘bad god’.
However, when the day comes when Jin and the provisional alliance have a final showdown with her, then it will surely be even more terrible than now.
Even if Jin wins such a Rosa.
The damage is inevitable. It was impossible for her to achieve her victory without taking lethal damage against her.
Of course, Zipline and Kinzel would also be hit, but it would not be comparable to Jin, who had a one-on-one match with Rosa.
What if the war ends like that?
Kingelo and Ziple are no longer allies. Even if Jin wins the war against Rosa, there is a high probability that he will have his strongest enemies by his side when he is weakest.
Of course, Jin had no intention of leaving it that way.
‘They don’t know that Valeria is not only a space-time device, but also a key to completing the Golden Fleet.’
1 year.
It wasn’t that long, but Jin prepared to face Rosa within that time, and planned to make the most of the other two forces.
“If you’re worried about me like that, please don’t attach people one by one. I will go to the Kaldran Snow Field as soon as the meeting is over.”
“Are you talking so fast… … ?”
“Please attach someone… … . That’s an interesting request. I can feel the will to use us to the bone until the temporary alliance ends.”
“Isn’t it common sense? It doesn’t matter if you don’t give up, because I’ll go alone anyway. Orgal said earlier that Rosa needs at least a year to move again. I have to do everything I can in it. Hester is a must for that.”
“Kingelo agrees!”
Margiela said, her eyes twinkling, and Ronil nodded as if he couldn’t.
“Zipple will agree.”
“There is one person on the Ziple side that I want.”
“… … Who are you thinking of?”
Jin made eye contact with him and replied:
“Beradin. Attach the Beradin Zipple.”
