Swordmaster's Youngest Son Chapter 293

Published at 4th of February 2022 12:02:10 PM

I didn't think he'd come to Ventica.…!'

It was so far away that I couldn't see my face in detail, but it wasn't hard to recognize my friend.

He didn't swing a sword once, but his heart was beating faster.

I felt it intuitively. The fact that Veradin is not normal.

Suddenly, the last conversation I had with Veradin came to mind.

So, what are you gonna do?

What?

Getting out of the jipple.

Oh, that's... ..it's hard. After you become a jockey, it would be more realistic to take me as a prisoner. It's an all-out war. And I don't know how mean your brothers are to me.

Looncandel and Jipple fight, even if it's not you.

That's true, Jean. I'm responsible as I am. If the family is going the wrong way, shouldn't I fix it? I'll normalize everything. I'm going back to the proud family I knew about.

Don't you think I should fix this? I have to fix it.….

In the midst of a pause, the voice seemed to repeat itself in my head.

I'll set the house right.

Jean did not believe Veradin's aspirations.

The evil empire, which has never collapsed in the last thousand years, had already come too far to correct. There's no answer but to break it.

But it was huge and hard enough to even be considered impossible to break.

More than half of the world was lying under the influence of the Zipple, the alliance was solid, and countless people were living on the magic of the Zipple.

The world's most important people wonder if the whole world can turn to the enemy and destroy it.

That was the jipple.

So Jean wanted Veradin to run away. He wished to leave the family and live as a whole.

No, if it were me, I would have left Looncandel. If I thought I had to live a life where my will was fading away without knowing it.

The great blackness and the capture of the project, the debris from which they were struck, covered the sky.

Veradin's red eyes were shaking dangerously in that dreary sky.

It's not normal, Jin gritted his teeth, retelling the words again.

A life in which memory is manipulated and gradually loses itself. No one would want such a thing.

Drenched in the power of fire, Veradin, who came to the battlefield with red eyes, looked just like a madman. He looked like a monster impatient to kill the enemy.

Fuong, Fuar, Quaah!

Wherever Veradin's gaze touched, a spatial explosion was spreading.

"You who resisted the family until the last time could not have come to this battlefield of your own will."

I didn't care that I could run into Veradin on my first mission since becoming a jockey.

I couldn't believe it. I had to swear to my throat.

I wanted to take Veradin out of the battlefield right now and try anything to bring him back to his senses.

But it's just an emotion.

It's not realistically achievable. The situation doesn't improve if you are swayed by anger.

It's hard to get Veradin back to normal right now anyway. It's probably impossible.'

It was necessary to control anger and look at the situation coolly.

Of course, I couldn't get rid of all my worries, but Jean thought:

Veradin's not a kid.

It was not Jin's role to throw himself away as if he were saving a child in danger.

It's something Veradin has to do on his own, and Jean just needs to reach out when he asks for help first.

It was Beradin's choice to resist the family and should be respected as a friend. Until it is judged that he is completely broken.

Jin's eyes, which quickly controlled his mind, calmed down.

'First of all, with the advent of Veradin, the war situation was sharply tilted.'

To be exact, it is a change caused by a magic, space explosion that is close to the power Veradin is spreading.

There were only two people on the side of Looncandel who were able to give the right shots to the Cosek and Red Dragon. Dipus and Barton, they were flying in the sky using the sword, trying to attack.

Meanwhile, a space explosion blocked the movement of Dipus and Barton.

A nine-star knight and a ten-star knight with a blessed body of Looncandel. Avoiding a space explosion in the air is almost impossible.

Veradin used the fact to persistently obstruct the two men's movements.

Thanks to this, the two were forced to respond only by shooting swords on the ground, and the Jipple seemed to be attacking them almost unilaterally.

The power is different from the space explosion used by Midor Elner.

The only magic tied two transcendent fighters in an instant.

'You must have a lot on your mind for Deepus. You don't understand why Veradin, not Kellyak, uses a space explosion, and you think Barton leaked information about the Ventica mission to Zipple.'

As expected, Dipus was in turmoil. Of course, I didn't express myself to the enemy, but I could see clearly from Jean.

'Barton would have actually leaked information to the Zipple before the operation began. You've been assigned to Ventica, so if you really need to get the ancient 10,000-year season, use the right number.'

The "right number" was the space explosion.

If you put too much power into stopping Barton and Dipus, Looncandel would also send troops accordingly, so there was no point.

But what if a space explosion simply precludes the ability of Dipus and Barton to conduct air warfare?

While there are only two people in Looncandel who can play in the air, Jipple has five dragons and even a project. It is even known to the public on cochacs.

It was unclear how many white nights were on board, the elite wizard of the Jipple.

No matter how strong Dipus and Barton are, from the moment the air war is cut off, they are at a limitless disadvantage.

'Gipple's smart. If Looncandel and Jipple had simply fought with more troops, the space explosion alone would never have changed the war.'

The story of when there were articles to protect Barton and Dipus from space explosions. The ten guardian knights who came with him had no such ability.

The infiltration team was blocked by traffic and no longer allowed to move forward to the enemy, and the guards deployed to kill the fugitive from the battlefield seemed to be chased by the dragons.

"Brave, why did the Zipple, who had the power of Kellyak...... Sir Barton! I'll make an opportunity, and you shoot him."

"Fourth rider, how do you create an opportunity? The White Night Wizards are focused on protecting Veradin."

"I can tear it down as much as I want, like a low-

"You're not saying that the four-principal is inadequate, are you? It's too dangerous. Now that we're stuck in the air, we have to be prepared for a lot of damage to see the end."

"Then do you mean to step down in vain?"

"Think rationally, Quartet. I also don't want to leave a blemish of mission failure as a black knight, but the enemy has come with such a good move."

"What?"

"Does the ancient eternity have been worth the life of a four-year-old? It's a big harvest just to see that Veradin can use Kellyak's power."

Fragments and magic were pouring out constantly during the conversation.

Dipus and Barton continue to escape the space explosion with transcendental sensations.

But no other guardian knights could do as they did.

The space explosion was so notorious because it could kill people without warning.

Argh!

Out of nowhere, a guardian with a 'throwing' arm. Originally, it was a space explosion aimed at the head, but the guardian driver only lost his arm to reflective damage.

Space explosion is a magic that even Dipus and Barton can avoid only when their senses are set to the limit.

In addition, Veradin's space explosion was unfolding in the "early-poet window." That means there are three explosions in the air at once.

Although Dipus and Barton could defend the breath of the project's guns, magic, and red dragons, the space explosion was an exception.

It is only a matter of time before other guardian knights are hit by a space explosion.

"Fourth rider! What is a rider in Looncandel? It's the role of leading and responsible for the family's knights. You don't like the stigma of failing your mission, so you're going to lead them to death? Make a decision."

You dirty traitor, you don't know what you're doing!

swallowing the anger that came up through his throat, Dipus shook his head.

If the black knight here was someone else, not Barton, Dipus would have actively followed the idea of retreat. There's not a single word wrong.

But Barton was a spy, and Dipus' mission was to secure Ventica and kill him.

"As you say, I don't think it's worth it in ancient infancy. But the supply and demand of veradine is different. You can't just go back. We take Bentica, we take the neck of the next Giffle."

"Then I'll give you the order to retreat."

"Sir Barton!"

"Even a fourth-term player can't violate my authority. I'll give you one last chance. Directly order retreat. If you refuse to comply, I will escape with the knights as black knight of Looncandel. If even one person dies, it will all be the responsibility of the 4th term.”

"What does that mean? When will there be another chance to kill Jipple's next...….”

"It seems to me that the fourth rider is blinded by the ball and makes a mistake. Did you say it was an opportunity to kill Veradin? Do you really think Jipple will let the next household be so complacent?"

With nothing to refute, Dipus was stifling and driving me crazy.

I couldn't reveal Barton's betrayal in front of all the enemies.

It was not fair to kill Barton in this situation. On the contrary, it was fortunate that he did not suffer.

'Shame on you! Should we step down and seek another chance......! Only for one magic trick!'

If this continues, it is a definite step to be humiliated.

It was no big deal. Rosa would hand over the task of killing the black knight to another rider, and with a high probability of being Joshua and Luntia.

If they shoot Barton neatly unlike themselves, they could not avoid losing ground in the family.

Suddenly

Dipus recalled a man who had not yet joined the battlefield.

Jean Looncandel, her youngest brother. If it's Jin.

If it's Jin... ...may have a trick to upset this doggy situation.

Such vague thoughts came to mind, and in itself the humiliation soared. For Dipus, the situation was not that good.

'Damn it. How did you end up like this, Dipus? However, humiliation is not important. You must kill Barton. Today, here. By all means!'

Jean was still watching them outside the battlefield.

Due to heavy drinking and distance, I could not hear the conversation between Dipus and Barton, but it was not difficult to read the way things were going.

'Barton would have urged the retreat. Now that the space explosion has worked, it's crazy to guarantee the lives of Mr. Dipus and his guardians to get the ancient fountain.'

Jean had no intention of watching the situation go as Barton wanted.

First of all, we need to neutralize the space explosion.'

After finishing his decision, Jin began to move to the battlefield.
