Chapter 724
Episode 182. Temporary Alliance’s Blind Points (1)
First day of June 1803.
After the operation was over, the provisional alliance disclosed all the information it had obtained while dealing with the evil god Runkandel to the public.
The relationship between evil spirits and despair, the identity of the dead prophet, and the reason why Dipus fell.
And the people of the world hung a black ribbon on their chests. To mourn those who have been sacrificed to the evil god so far.
Also, it was to show the temporary alliance that they, ordinary people, were fighting together.
It was an expression of his will to sit still and not add despair to the bust.
Those who wore the black ribbon did not prepare for evacuation or fall into despair. I tried to continue my ‘daily life’ by somehow resisting the fear of being a fake god.
That was the way ordinary people fought against evil spirits.
The entire continent was exerting such strength.
Of course, there were many who did not do that.
Someone shouted that the temporary alliance was lying to hide its incompetence, and someone mentioned Joshua and Difus, Mew and Anne, Ran and Vigo, and said that Tikan’s runcandels were in fact already attached to the titular god.
But even those people, from the deepest depths of their hearts, had only one wish.
Come on, let this hell end.
Anyone, hurry up and bring the world back to normal.
[Now, only the final notice remains… … .]
Orgal said.
Currently, the temporary alliance was holding a final meeting at the Tikan Palace for a decisive battle with the god of the chest.
“The spread of despair confirmed by Veradin’s map has also noticeably slowed down. The harvest from the success of the last operation is quite large.”
said Cardoon. For this meeting, Ziple sent him, not Beradin, as his representative.
From a very sober point of view, the temporary alliance did not lose much in this battle.
Although it was only about 30% of the total captives, it saved about 30,000 people, and in the process, there was no fatal loss to the main force.
On the other hand, the Garden of Swords was severely damaged.
First of all, the Prophet died. With the land called Riccarton.
The explosion that started from the orb at the end of the battle did not stop until Riccarton was erased from the map.
Mu and Anne also met a perfect death due to the extinction of the Prophet.
No one has seen their end. That fact was left only as an empty record.
No one pays any attention, and no one cares.
It was a most pitiful death.
Even the Tona brothers, who were bullied the longest by Mew and Ann, had already forgotten about them.
Because it wasn’t worth remembering.
Most of all, the biggest thing was that part of the power of the chest god disappeared with Dipus.
<The chest is weak.>
Exactly how weakened the chest was, even with Valeria’s record magic, it was impossible to know.
However, it was certain that the formation of the ship ‘Ram’ had completely stopped after Operation Riccarton.
That meant that not only did the chest body weaken, but also stopped growing.
So now, the most important factors in the final battle were two.
Can Jin win a one-on-one fight with Rosa?
Can the power of the temporary alliance handle the firepower of the ship Ram, which has been completed so far?
“Fortunately, I heard that the strength of the Temporary Alliance was not lost to the army of chaos at Riccarton Castle. Beyond that, if it hadn’t been for the Prophet and the 4th Horseman, they would have probably overpowered them from start to finish. Excluding the chest and the ship Ram, we have a clear overall advantage in the rest of the force.”
So, Kadun suggested that a few people of the highest rank, including himself and Orgal, be in charge of Ram, while the rest were assigned to deal with the army of chaos.
“It’s like they’re all bridesmaids. For a showdown between you and Rosa. Just like the last operation, no other factor should interfere with your fight. As for the Fourth Horseman and the Prophet, you eventually caught them all, but… … Your chest will be different.”
Jin put arsenic in his words.
“Can you handle ship ram? At the time of the first all-out attack, your fleet couldn’t respond to Ram’s main guns at all. Especially Kadun, you almost died. You were unable to participate in the last operation because you suffered consecutive injuries after that day.”
Kadun couldn’t shout out loud to Jin, who openly expressed his displeasure.
“I mean, I don’t know why you came to the meeting instead of Beradin.”
“Now that Kelliac is gone, I am the head of the family.”
“I never thought I would hear such a calm answer from the Fire Dragon, Kadun, who is famous for his pride. Looks like you got an order from Beradin to never get into trouble at the meeting, right?”
[Now, there is only one big fight left, but I don’t think we need to spend unnecessary emotions on each other. It’s temporary, but it’s an alliance that won’t happen again in the world, so why don’t we reap lasting beauty with a little more effort?]
As Orgal said, Kadun took his eyes off Jin.
[Anyway, unlike the first all-out attack, I regained some of my strength, and the Prophet disappeared. Therefore, the evil god will not be able to properly control the ship Ram while fighting you. Originally, the Prophet would have used Ram instead of the Mischief.]
Jin didn’t answer and looked at Orgal and Kadun alternately.
Thinking about the meaning of the word ‘temporary alliance’.
‘Eventually, even at this point when Rosa is obviously weak, Kingelo and Ziple have no intention of using their trump card.’
Orgal’s recovery and manipulation of history.
There was no reason for Kingelo and Zippo to take out the paddle now.
It should be used when the battle for power begins again after the battle with the evil god is over.
Or maybe it’s something you really can’t get out.
Orgal’s recovery requires the remnants of the sun god like a veil, and Valeria’s ability is needed to manipulate history.
‘Either way, things won’t go your way. After putting an end to the bust, it’s your turn… … .’
Although they crossed the line of fire together a few times as temporary alliances, to Jin, Ziple and Kingelo were still another deity.
There is no change in the fact that one side tries to manipulate the world through the sun god and the other through history manipulation.
“Well, if you have confidence, that’s fine. If that’s the case, I’m going to have to make a pact now.”
“A medicine?”
[Suddenly what?]
Kadun and Orgal expressed their doubts at the same time.
“The temporary alliance will naturally disintegrate once the final battle with the evil god is over. I think then, there should be an agreement not to attack each other for at least a year.”

[Although this is necessary.]
“You don’t think you’re thinking that such agreements are enforceable to the extent of putting a stamp on the document and announcing it to the public, right? It’s a pointless story. When the war against the evil god is over, everyone can do their own thing no matter what the damage situation is.”
“Even if it’s just a verbal agreement, I have to accept it. In the war against the evil god, it is most likely that I will be the one who gets hurt the most in the end.”
“Even if we were allies for a short time, a war that lasted for a thousand years cannot end like this. I’ll put a stamp on the document, but don’t expect it. We will refuse verification through Azmil’s contractor.”
“Why are you bringing up Yuria? After all, she must have known very well that she couldn’t use her powers because she was in a bad condition. I’d rather be honest with you all the time, but what if I hold a grudge and get attached to the underdog?”
“Hahaha!”
Kadun burst into laughter at Jin’s words.
“You mean you can do that? When you die, you die, and you are not a human being to eat with the evil spirits. He heard a funny joke in a long time.”
“I’m glad you enjoyed it.”
“Seeing you suddenly say this before the final battle, you seem to be confident in your fight against the evil god.”
Jin responded with a smile.
[As Kadun said, documents cannot have coercive power, so how about giving each other hostages?]
“We don’t mind, but the 12th Horseman seems to hate it. Didn’t you bring up the pact anyway, so that the world would point the finger at whoever strikes first after the alliance is broken?”
Jin nodded.
“that’s right. The people of the world should know which one breaks the promise first. Judging by the current atmosphere, it must be Zipple.”
“well. First of all, I don’t think it’s something to hear from someone who took other people’s power and used other people’s secrets. You’ll find out when you see it.”
It was a story about Hedo and the Holy Land.
Kadun was rather convinced that Jin would be the first to move right after the final battle with the evil god.
‘If the Twelve Horsemen subdue the chest more easily than we expected, they might strike us right after. It is highly likely that an agreement was reached with Kingelo in advance. So, the Battle of the Goddess should be conducted while preserving as much power as possible outside of the fleet.’
Kadun rose from his seat.
“Let’s just go back today.”
“It would be nice if Beradin could come to the meeting tomorrow instead of you.”
Orgal also shrugged and stood up.
[It seems like everyone is already thinking about what happens after the alliance is broken, but I hope this doesn’t happen at tomorrow’s meeting. Hufester is still holding on to his chest.]
The two left the meeting room with the attendants.
Jin watched their ship disappear far away in Tikan for a while, while Casimir came to the meeting.
“Sir Casimir, how is Yuria?”
Anyway, Yuria’s current condition is not good, so she can’t use her abilities.
When Jin said that, Kadun had no doubts.
It was a fact known to all of the allies that before the Riccarton Castle operation began, Yuria was mentally traumatized while looking into the future.
However, there was another real reason why Yuria couldn’t use her abilities right now.
“It has improved a lot. But I guess I need to rest for a while.”
“It must have been painful to see the future of Riccarton Castle, but I made that child carry the burden again.”
“My daughter is very proud, and the soul qi obtained during the verification is also being purified, so don’t worry too much.”
yesternight.
While verifying the words of ‘Lynne Milkano’, who suddenly came to Tican, Yuria was exposed to a bit of marriage.
-Hobeop Chairman… … !?
-12 Horseman, I came to tell you something.
Hobeop Chairman Lynn Milkano.
She was still on the side of Runcandel.
