“My lady, calm down.”

“Hedo, did you hear what that crazy demon dragon just said!?"

"I heard it."

"But how do I calm down? Jin is mine, I'll tear that demon to pieces... Wait, Jin is married!?"

"Jin Runcandel wouldn't like the way you're acting right now. And he's not married."

"Really? That thing was just spouting nonsense? The day will come when that demon dragon really dies at my hands.”

Sandra wanted to continue her tantrum, but she closed her mouth after seeing Jin's sad expression. He looked very gloomy.

The grayish sky of the snowfield was turning black with Zephyrin's demonic energy in an instant. She was literally 'wiping out' knights who had begun to flock to her. She didn't reveal her arrogance or poise that she usually hid behind laughter and etiquette. She was keeping her promise with Jin.

"We'd better go now too, Tower Keeper. I don't think there will be much time.”

Of course, not all of knights started to fight Zephyrin. About 20% of them still remained near the cave, guarding the surroundings.

“Hedo.”

“Yes, lady.”

“Can't you take on those knights alone?"

"Why do you ask?"

"Yes or no?"

"It's possible."

"Then, Heedo, open the way alone for Jin's sake."

Hedo was briefly shocked that Sandra could have such deep thoughts.

“Of course I could do that, but I think the 12th flagbearer will object it.”

"Why?"

“He is not the type of person who hand over his burdens. Anyway, you made a very commendable suggestion."

Jin was already moving forward. Bradamante was enveloped in a jet-black shadow force.

There were about a hundred knights left near the cave.

The moment they realized Jin was approaching, thirteen of them fell after being struck by the First Technique of the Shadow Sword, soul slash, one after another.

'As expected…… everyone is completely engulfed in chaos.'

The knights, tainted by chaos, had become grotesque monsters that could no longer be called "Runcandel's knights."

Their twisted arms swung their swords grotesquely, and their legs, transformed into thorns, spilled chaos with each step they took.

Their pupils were dark as coals, and only bleak breaths and screams flowed from their mouth.

Jin swung his sword to put them all to rest in an instant. It was the only thing he could do for those who had given their lives to the clan as knights.

'Rosa...… I will definitely make you pay for what you’ve done.’

Hedo didn't even need to draw his sword.

To be precise, he had judged that it would be better for him not to help after watching Jin's swordsmanship.

‘There's not a single unnecessary movement...it's like the Sword of Sir Chiron.'

In terms of precision, it was not inferior to Chiron's swordsmanship.

Hedo was looking at Jin's sword like he was admiring a great work of art, forgetting for a moment his position and his own beliefs.

“What's with that dumb expression? Don't tell me Hedo has fallen for Jin too?"

“I was just a little shocked, my lady. Those who haven't seen Sir Chiron’s sword in person will think that the 12th flagbearer has become genesis knight.”

“It was only a few years ago that he almost got killed by Hedo in Sota Desert. Back then, Hedo overwhelmed Jin and his companions, but what about now?"

“What are you talking about?”

“Can you win?”

“I don’t think so. I expected it because he was fighting alone in the Garden of Swords, but it's a different feeling seeing it up close."

Sandra laughed as if it was something she was proud of.

“See! If it's Jin, there's definitely a chance. I didn't think so at first either, so it's not Hedo's fault. So why don't you do as I said last time...… Oh, you scared me!"

Hedo slashed a beam of demonic energy that had fallen near Sandra. Zephyrin was quietly spreading shock waves towards Sandra while facing the knights who were tainted with chaos.

"Ha, that's pretty low. Despite being over a few thousand years old, she acts like a kid."

As they talked and moved, Jin had already dealt with more than half of the remaining knights near the cave.

In front of the cave were those who were believed to be past Black Knights or top executives of the Black Sword Association, or top enforcement knights.

As Jin slashed the knights and approached them, their energy of chaos grew bigger.

'I wonder if they were hiding their power.'

A total of fifteen. Their mutant state took on a different form from the previous chaos knights. It was a stable shape, like a well-crafted doll, rather than a distorted and bizarre form.

'It seems that they still haven’t lost their minds.'

The eyes were also similar to those of ordinary humans, not black holes, but horns and blades of chaos were strengthening all over the body like Rosa.

“I’m Jin Runcandel, 12th flagbearer. State your name.”

[You're disqualified from being a flagbearer, traitor Jin.]

The man in the middle of the group stepped forward.

Although he has somewhat deformed face, but Jin never saw him before. Due to this fact, Jin assumed that his opponent is a black knight.

“Looks like you wore a black helmet in the past. Now that Rosa has accepted chaos, it seems to have been significantly reorganized, but until then, it was a truly glorious helmet. Why are you standing there looking like that?"

[Whether you wore the Black Helmet or not, the duty of the clan’s swords is only to fight for the clan. The knights you are killing have only changed for the Runcandel.]

“I heard from uncle Jorden that there are not many people who have become monsters voluntarily.”

[If such a clan were allowed to exist, would Runcandel have existed until now? Runcandel was originally composed of domination, command, and power.]

“That means you are a group who sincerely sympathized with Rosa's rebellion, unlike the others.”

[You only want to fulfill your personal desire to become the patriarch, traitor. That's why you have already formed an alliance with the rest of the forces. Thanks to Madame Rosa, Runcandel has finally become the best in the world. But do you know what? If you hadn't betrayed, Madame Rosa would have made you the patriarch.]

Hooook......

The shadow force that stained Bradamante disappeared.

[What do you think would have happened to Runcandel and even to the Huphester alliance without Madame Rosa? You must have been trampled on by Zipfel and Kinzelo, who begged for an alliance...….]

“I won't show you any mercy. And don't try to fool around with me."

Instead of shadow force, a blazing aura wrapped around Bradamante.

At the same time, a beam of light flashed and the right arm of the Black Knight who was talking with Jin fell off.

Although one acceleration was less than the light speed thrust with thunderbolt added, but that was enough. As befitting its original name, the "secret technique" sword.

“Don't you think I knew you were stalling for time, making excuses until reinforcements arrive?"

The Black Knight's fallen arm was quickly regenerating. Then, he prepared to retaliate, but Jin had pushed aside other knights and made his way to the back.

“You think you avoided it? I opened the way to cut off your arms in the first place.”

The regenerating right arm was cut off again, and the left arm that was retaliating also fell to the ground. Then Jin grabbed his horn and slammed his head into the ground.

[Argh!]

I told you, I won't show mercy to you guys..."

As the black knight was being trampled on and writhing in pain, the remaining knights drew their swords towards Jin.

Jin calmly received all of their attacks while standing still.

Shockwaves spread out, and the charging knights bounced back as if hitting a wall. They all vomited black chaos like blood and shivered in pain.

"Be grateful that I'm busy. I would love to give each of you a thorough beating, but I don't have that luxury."

Jin said so, but the knights who attacked him were feeling pain that went beyond their bones, unlike the other knights who were being killed by Zephyrin.

By that time, Hedo had also joined in and started taking care of the rest of the knights. Hedo didn't purposely intensify their pain, but as he naturally wielded a more destructive type of sword than Jin, it ended up that way.

5 minutes.

It took barely that much time for them to handle the fifteen knights, including the black knight, who were once the top-level knights in the past.

There is a reason why the two are said to be the strongest in the world, but Jin was already well aware of the decline in the ‘class’ of knights stained with chaos. Except for special cases like Stam.

Rather, if the knights hadn't accepted the chaos, it would have taken more time. Rosa and the Prophet chose to increase their overall strength, even if it meant decreasing individual strength.

'Or maybe they can only do that as long as they accept chaos.'

Jin plunged his sword into the back of the black knight, who was under his feet.

[There is no one you're looking for inside... You won't find them.]

“Is that your last pathetic words? We already know that Hyster is not in the Garden of Swords.”

At those words, the black knight smiled.

[Yes, as you said. Because the red-haired woman is already dead...… haha.]

"What?"

When Jin reacted, the Black Knight smirked as if amused.

After a few seconds, Jin stopped moving and stared at him.

He was fumbling with something in his arms. Jin almost let out a roar when he saw what it was.

What the Black Knight had pulled out was a handful of red hair.

But instead of reacting, Jin decided to regain his composure and lit a blue flame in his palm.

“I told you not to play tricks. If it was a head instead of hair, I might have believed you a little more."

As the flame fell like a water droplet onto the Black Knight's back, a blue flame erupted all over his body in an instant. A piercing scream followed.

[Ahhhh……! If you continue to search for Hister’s body, you will... die on this land too...]

The Black Knight could not finish his words and turned completely into ashes.

Jin turned his gaze inside the cave, hoping that Valeria was still alive.
