Swordmaster’s Youngest Son Chapter 561

C561
He will use the power of the Demon God Orb to bring Ron back into the fight.
The situation was so urgent and dangerous that Stam, sincerely, hadn't thought about it until now.
Deciding to manipulate someone who was recently an enemy, and moreover, the patriarch of Zipple, was not an easy decision even when thinking calmly.
Stam could see how Jin's grip on the sword trembled.
It wasn't due to fear, nor was it a reaction to recoil.
He trembled because he had to face the harsh reality of making such a decision.
What kind of thing was the Demon God Orb?
Until Gliek awakened, the Vamel Alliance and the Knights of Hairan risked their lives to protect the Sword Emperor Castle, with Ron and Jin at the center.
And now, Jin was saying he would use that thing to revive Ron and make him fight again.
It was a decision he hated making more than anyone, and he couldn't understand how he had made it.
"I made a great mistake with the Twelfth Flagbearer."
Stam was ashamed.
Moreover, Stam could now understand once again why Cyron had shown so much interest in Jin.
Boom!
Stam and the Black Knights dodged the swords and spears aimed at Jin.
"I will definitely take responsibility for the rudeness I just committed, Twelfth Flagbearer."
Jin ran frantically amidst hundreds of swords and spears falling with Ron on his back.
This can't end like this, Ron-nim!
Ron's murmuring voice, resonating behind him, was louder and heavier than any noise on the battlefield.
My grandson is in there.
Those words, weak but like a lifeline, echoed in Jin's heart.
It was certain that Dante's consciousness remained. Otherwise, the hesitation in Gliek's sword just before attacking Jin and Ron could not be explained.
However, if only a part of Dante's consciousness remained.
After killing Gliek, what comes next?
If they killed him, would Dante's remaining consciousness also disappear completely?
Can Dante come back?
There was no time to ponder such questions.
Tess's flame faded, Ron was incapacitated, and the Black Sea's transformation advanced.
Gliek's attacks pressed the group with more intensity with each passing moment.
The only fortunate aspect was that Gliek's attention remained focused on Jin's side and the rear.
Talaris and the Vamel Alliance were defenseless, but ironically, Gliek's attacks barely affected them.
Jin was gradually feeling the heat.
It meant that Kelliark's fire was cutting through the chaos and approaching Gliek.
He desperately pushed away the chaos and approached Jin.
Kelliark couldn't see the interior situation well from the outside, and even Tess's blue flames had disappeared, so he was about to go crazy.
Gliek's twisted members returned to their place.
The more this happened, the sharper his sword and spear became, and Stam and the Black Knights' defenses were reaching their limits.
Boom!
A Chaos energy erupted behind Jin.
He rushed to dodge, but it was impossible to completely avoid the impact while carrying Ron on his back.
Rashid, who had been clinging to Ron until then, rolled on the ground with a dull noise.
Trying to go in to retrieve the sword was almost suicidal.
Reluctantly, Jin prepared to run towards Kelliark's fire.
"Now you have lost even the sword, pitiful man."
A chilling energy suddenly emerged, enveloping Jin and Ron.
Talaris Endorma, the Hidden Palace Master, had finally completed her recovery and rejoined the battlefield.
Talaris's eyes were moist as she looked at Ron, who was in a pitiful state.
[...There was also a human chosen by Full Ice]
Gliek looked at Talaris.
Talaris exuded a completely different level of energy than before, after extracting part of her power from Elona Zipple's seal.
But she couldn't maintain that power for long.
It was because she had already suffered internal injuries while executing the Final Movement, White, and also because she couldn't bear to awaken Elona Zipple in this situation.
The attack stopped momentarily.
Gliek, he, had begun to clearly recognize Talaris.
Stam and the Black Knights caught their breath, and Talaris picked up Rashid and approached Jin and Ron.
She shared the same thoughts as Jin.
"Your dear grandson is still fighting alone against that monster. Ron, it's not time for you to stop yet...".
Talaris judged that Dante had not completely disappeared yet.
If the seal holding Gliek had been completely broken, everyone near Gliek would have been unable to survive.
-[How persistent.]
Gliek didn't say it just for Ron.
He also said it to Dante, who was still holding back his complete awakening.
Full Ice created a resonant sound, spreading cold energy in all directions.
The energy froze the ground, and the Black Sea transformation visibly slowed down...
But Gliek could realize that Jin was not Solderet but a contractor under the protection of the shadows.
Even so, his murderous intent did not fade.
On the contrary, Gliek would now fight more carefully and calmly.
Because if the opponent was a contractor, not a Solderet, there was no need to fear or be impatient.
Gliek feared Jin even though he thought Solderet had lost his power when he hadn't fully regained his rationality.
Gliek's mouth opened abruptly, and he smiled.
Then, as if playing a joke, he threw his sword and spear towards Jin's allies.
His attack was blocked by a massive ice wall formed by Talaris before it could overwhelm the Vamel Alliance, and Gliek seemed to enjoy it even as he continued to hit the ice wall and burst into laughter.
[Ha-ha-ha...!]
Every time Gliek laughed, the Chaos filling the battlefield vibrated wildly.
Talaris was well aware of where her maneuverability came from.
The power to defy fate.
In the records of the Hidden Palace, it was stated that only beings who reached the mastery of the Genesis Knight could defy and kill the Chaos King.
No matter how deep and immense the power one possessed, the only thing that could fundamentally harm the Black Sea Kings was the sword and magic of a Genesis Knight.
The reason the Patriarch of Hairan couldn't cut the White Stone was no different.
It was because no Genesis Knight had appeared in Hairan.
If the information about the White Stone had not disappeared at some point in history, like swept away by the tide, it would have been handed over to those who reached the mastery of the Genesis Knight in Runcandel or Zipple.
However, assumptions were meaningless in the face of the history that had already happened, and that Gliek awakened today in this land was a predetermined destiny.
"Jin."
"Yes, Talaris-nim."
"All we have to do is hold him off until your father arrives."
Or I can only hope that the records I know are wrong.
Talaris swallowed her words and placed Rashid in Ron's lifeless right hand.
Even in the midst of losing all his senses, Ron did not release the grip on the handle in his hand.
Talaris didn't give much importance to Dante still being conscious in Gliek.
As she couldn't have the power to go against fate, his extinction was inevitable.
Buying time until Cyron arrives.
Despite having the most powerful humans, excluding Cyron, and almost all the elite forces of Runcandel and Zipple gathered in one place, it was a harsh reality that their only option was to wait for Cyron.
Although Full Ice's energy was blocking the Black Sea, it hadn't stopped.
As the ground turned black, Gliek's body grew larger and larger.
An indescribably ominous purple light shone from the empty sockets of his eyes.
Just looking at the eyes made them feel a strong headache along with a buzzing that seemed to burst their ears.
Chahhha!
The more perfect Gliek's condition was, the more violently the Demon God Orb expressed its fear.
And finally, Kelliark Zipple broke through the Chaos wall and entered inside.
The first thing they saw as the rear opened was Kozec's helmet, descending rapidly as if falling.
Kozec landed, scratching the blackened ground.
Kelliark, who had cast a magic circle in front of him, looked around with bloodshot eyes.
He wanted to find Jin.
Soon, he realized that Jin was alive, and the breath he was holding burst out unconsciously.
He's alive.
A flame orb like the sun rose behind Kelliark.
[Are you the owner of that horrible imitation?]
"Kelliark!"
Talaris shouted.
Kelliark also had the same thoughts as Talaris.
He also thought that if Ron had already been killed or fallen into a state where he couldn't fight, he would heal Ron with the power of the Demon God Orb and make him fight again.
However, there was barely any characteristic black energy of the Demon God Orb mixed in Kelliark's flame orb.
That was the problem.
The Demon God Orb still couldn't properly bestow its power to Kelliark.
The power was intertwined as if hiding in Kelliark's staff, Hroti.
The power of the Demon God Orb intertwined within Hroti was not being released.
Jin, Talaris, and the Black Knights couldn't help but feel that something was wrong.
The most bewildered was Kelliark himself.
He knew that the Demon God Orb had shrunk, but he didn't expect it to be to this extent.
This is...
Impossible!
The Demon God Orb is incomplete.
The powers of the Gods imprisoned within it are not yet fully under Kelliark's control.
A failure...
Kelliark and Talaris simultaneously thought the same word.
'If Ron can't fight again, I don't know how long I can hold out even if Runcandel comes.'
'Does this mean that even the will of more than thirty Gods cannot go against a Black Sea King?'
But at that moment...
Suddenly, Ron got off Jin's back and walked towards Kelliark.
The murmuring had stopped.
Ron, who seemed to be either dead or already dead, walked with a life cut short.
As if time had stopped for a moment, everyone froze watching Ron approach Kelliark.
Rashid was still clinging to Ron.
For some reason, as Ron approached Kelliark, the terrified cries of the Demon God Orb faded away.
The Demon God Orb...
Reacted to Ron!
Ron stabbed his sword into the ground and knelt in front of Hroti's black energy.
As if praying.
Then, the Demon God Orb fell silent, and Kelliark could feel it.
The fact that the frightened Gods gave him strength.
