Chapter 677

Episode 173. chasing the sword (2)

* * *

An uninhabited island in Tikan territorial waters.

Jin chose this place as the place to open the sixth tomb, the subspace of the sword.

In preparation for an emergency, Jin and Tikan’s strongmen, as well as the sword masters Hedo and Sandra, were seated in the middle of an uninhabited island.

“Are you opening the subspace by spreading spiritual energy like last time?”

“Perhaps it is. To be precise, it is to inject into the sword.”

“Hmm.”

Seemingly unreliable, Hedo adjusted his glasses.

“Didn’t you say that in Kaldran Snow Field, the locational conditions must be met for Temar’s tomb to be opened, 12th Horseman? I don’t think this uninhabited island is a place that meets that condition.”

“Not all tombs are like that. Even then, I was just making assumptions about the sudden situation.”

Hedo shrugged and handed Jin his sword.

Jin smiled at Hedo as he accepted the sword.

“Doesn’t it feel like fate somehow, Tower Keeper?”

“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”

“Suddenly, I wonder if it was just a coincidence that you got this sword after a thousand years. The combination of an old teenage knight and Ziple’s butler isn’t like that.”

“It’s a useless theory of fate.”

“I just want to placate you by mentioning useless theories of fate. Are you okay? Maybe you’re a descendant of a teenage knight named Bale. So the sword found you. It’s not a coincidence.”

“It’s a romantic story, honey.”

“My lady, it’s not romantic at all.”

“Why does our stupid butler think that?”

“When the family head first accepted me into the family, the family checked all of my identity. You know?”

“Ah, those lowly guys who abandoned Hedo. I remember, he was already dead so I never saw his face.”

“Did you hear, the 12th rider? My parents were humble commoners and criminals. She abandons her child because it is too much and visits the orphanage every once in a while because of the guilt, but she never takes it back. They were the kind of criminals who would stop walking when the guilt became bearable.”

Even after saying that, Hedo seemed to have no change of heart.

In fact, he felt no special feelings toward his parents who abandoned him as soon as he was born. He was never missed, never even hated.

“Furthermore, the family even confirmed their roots, and at the end of it, the merchant family of the ruined kingdom of Urod came out. Which means that whoever is inside the sword cannot be my ancestor.”

“It’s a sad story.”

“Now I see, not only the lady but also you need to learn the mystery of pushing and pulling. Wouldn’t it open your heart even more if you rushed to want me like that?”

“Let me refer to it.”

Jin pretended to be sorry and smacked his lips smirkingly.

For some reason, Hedo hated that appearance and thought that he should have beaten him more in the Sota Desert.

Soon, Jin corrected his expression and looked around at the people.

“From now on, I will inject aura into the sword. It would be nice if the tomb was opened without incident, but please don’t let your guard down because you don’t know what variables will arise.”

“Yes, lord!”

“I understand, lord.”

When Jin released the aura, the whole area began to darken in an instant.

Even though it was broad daylight, night seemed to have come in an instant, and the dazzling sunlight was hidden by a black curtain.

‘As expected, a large amount of aura is needed this time too.’

Perhaps it was because of the memory of the last tomb where she fought a hard battle with Runtia after entering with almost exhausted energy, but she was a bit nervous.

It was also possible to face a burdensome opponent in a state where the aura was exhausted.

Above all, there is a high possibility that a living person from Runkandel exists within this sword.

Like the tomb guardians he’d met so far, he could attack Jin without hesitation, and if he was a teenage knight, he couldn’t be weaker than Runtia.

‘Because I am a member of the old Runcandel… … .’

It was possible because sub-space is a ‘dead world’, or beings with a lifespan of thousands of years like dragons and demons. After all, I had never received the information that all of the Teenage Knights were human.

‘Or it could be sealed. Like Elona Zipple.’

Spirituality spread without knowing the end. Then, it poured out and was absorbed by the sword once in a while, but those who watched it could not even guess the size of the aura that Jin was handling.

‘It reminds me of the liberation of spirits performed by Murakan in his heyday. That stupid guy wondered if he could find his strength properly, but he couldn’t even help Jin because he was doing Mischa’s behalf… … At times like this, if he was there, he would be reassured.’

In the Kaldran Snowfield, the tomb refused entry to anyone except Jin.

In the past, the party had entered the tomb together and had the experience of confronting Guardian Sara, so Quikantel hoped that this time would be the same.

It’s been so long.

‘Aura is being injected like crazy, but I can’t feel any change from the sword… … .’

At this rate, it seemed that the aura would run out soon, but Hedo’s sword was immovable.

It didn’t radiate brilliance or form a gate like it did in the Kaldran snowfield.

“Jin, does something feel different from last time? Couldn’t that red hair bring some wrong information?”

Sandra said, glaring at Valeria.

Valeria did not react and quietly watched Jin and the sword.

“If I fail like this, do I have to re-learn how to open the door of the sword through record magic again? Things like positional conditions.”

“From my point of view, red hair is pure bullshit, Hedo. It’s strange that the old Runkandel is still alive inside the sword in the first place.”

“I am also puzzled.”

“Uh, but if everything the redhead said is true, the door suddenly opens. What if that Runkandel then attacks Jin-san? Just like in the Kaldran snowfield.”

“Isn’t the problem that the young lady should be worried about is if the old Runkandel becomes an ally of the 12 Horsemen?”

“As you wish, Hedo. That’s good for Jin, how could I worry about that?”

“I have lost my roots and family to you guys, and have been driven for a long time.”

Valeria said in a low voice. He didn’t even look at Sandra.

“What, redhead?”

“It means to shut up and focus on your work because you feel like tearing to death. Because everyone has no choice but to come together to work.”

Valeria still didn’t look at Sandra, but Sandra’s eyes flickered at the bleak murder in her low voice.

And the moment Sandra is about to scream out loud.

Suddenly, Hedo’s sword vibrated and began to change for the first time.

“Are you trying to open a subspace?”

“Fortunately, I don’t think there will be any problems… … .”

Quikantel cut off.

It was because I saw Jin’s expression.

“Jin, are you okay?”

“self!?”

There was a lot of embarrassment on Jin’s face, which had been expressionless throughout.

The reason is not different.

‘The Tower Keeper’s sword is about to bounce somewhere… … !’

As much as Jin was directly injecting aura, he was more clearly aware of the change that had begun in the sword than anyone else.

And according to what he felt, Hedo’s sword seemed to have chosen to ‘move’ instead of opening the door like last time.

Before three seconds had passed, Jin was convinced. The fact that the sword will soon pop out somewhere.

I tried to block the aura from flowing into the sword, but the sword had already gained enough power to move.

Piying, sseuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Like a magic cannon being fired.

Suddenly, the sword in front of Jin soared into the sky, tearing the black curtain that covered the sky.

It was as if Runcandel’s secret beam thrust was extended to the sky.

Space was distorted at the speed of the sword’s flight, and everyone gathered on the island looked up at the sky.

“Uh, Hedo’s sword flew like a firecracker… … !”

Hedo jumps up.

He landed on the ground without holding onto his sword.

Seeing the sword further away in the meantime, Hedo couldn’t help but make an absurd expression.

“catch!”

Quikantel shouted.

However, the sword that had risen in a straight line had already turned and was flying somewhere.

Jin’s auras absorbed by the sword even left long traces in the sky like the tail of a comet.

In the blink of an eye, the sword was more than 1 ri away from the crowd.

Intuitively, Jin assumed that the sword was flying in search of a space to open up his subspace.

If so, the opening of the tomb was a success, but it was not a very good situation.

It means that there is no means to chase that sword right away.

The red owl was put on standby on the unknown side, Mort was injured, and even if there were two of them in the first place, it would be difficult to chase the sword in that state. It’s not black space movement, it’s because it’s pure ultra-high speed flight.

Everyone looking at the sword now had no memory of seeing a flying object moving faster than me.

“Quikantel!”

Jin called Quikantel. Because he has to chase the sword.

“I get it!”

Quikantel quickly manifested the power of time and transformed into its true form.

However, the sword was dangerously avoiding the power of time and moving far into the sky.

Those who had gathered in perfect order climbed onto Quikantel’s back.

Quikantel immediately started flying at full speed, but it was impossible to catch up with the sword.

[I’ll follow even the traces of the aura left by the sword!]

Fortunately, like Hedo’s black contrail, it moved forward leaving a long trace of aura.

The sword had already gone so far that it could not be seen, but if you followed the trail, you would be able to reach the end of the sword.

The problem was the fact that the destination was unknown and the sword’s flight was prolonged.

‘This is completely unexpected. If there was a problem with opening the tomb, I thought it would be a battle with the tomb guardian, but I never thought the sword would fly like that!’

Even leaving so many traces.

The fact that the sword flew for a long time leaving traces in the sky meant that this situation could be exposed to forces other than Tikan.

If, by the time we reach the final destination of the sword, all forces such as the Garden of Swords, Ziple, Kingelo, and the Imperial Family would all gather there.

‘Temporary allies will still feel burdened to do nonsense, but it’s not the Garden of Swords… … !’

If you were careful, a picture of all the great powers gathering in Temar’s sixth tomb could have come out.

Hedo’s murderous gaze landed on Jin’s back.

“Looks like it’s a completely unexpected problem for you too. However, if I lose my sword in this situation, it won’t be much fun. 12 radix… … .”
