Swordmaster's Youngest Son Novel - Chapter 863
## Chapter 863
Jin decided to face Tujad, who was undoubtedly the strongest among the five priests of the Sun God’s religious sect.
“Then, you two will take care of the lords of the Euron and Kungen clans. Luntia, you take care of the lords of the Typhen and Meyer clans.”
“Understood.”
“Wait, what about me?”
“Sir Murakan, please enjoy watching the fight while protecting Peitel and the others. We will take care of everything.”
“Very well. If any problems arise, I will lend a hand.”
The flagbearers nodded as if such a situation wouldn’t occur.
The priests of the Sun God’s religious sect were undoubtedly the martial artists who had dominated the world in the past. In the case of Tujad Attila, he was highly revered as the world’s first sword at that time, and the others were legendary figures with extraordinary skill that would be remembered throughout history.
However, objectively speaking, none of them had reached the realm of ‘Genesis Knight’.
Because of this, Jin and the flagbearers never considered the possibility of their defeat. They were confident that no one could defeat them unless they were a Genesis Knight.
Jin lunged toward Tujad while suppressing his movements. At the same time, Jin unleashed lightning energy in all directions, forcing the nearby priests to retreat to both sides.
Luna and Luntia also faced the opponents assigned to them. The center of the battlefield was Jin and Tujad, the right side had Luna and Kaiman, Trax, and the left side had Luntia and Lujin, Chin.
Bang-!
Tujad’s eyes gleamed as he stopped Sigmund. He smiled with a crazy enthusiasm, as if he had been waiting for this battle.
‘Is someone addicted to the pleasure of battle itself? It seems he has gone mad.’
As was evident from the way he made sly remarks, Tujad didn’t say a word and immediately focused on the fight.
[You talk so much about antiquity and respect, but where is your dignity? You chose your opponents as you pleased without even asking for permission. I was curious about the taste of your blood.]
Trax alternated his gaze between Luna and Jin.
Luna let out a hollow laugh as if she couldn’t believe it.
“You called yourself a superior, but you really know how to make a fool of yourself, you piece of trash. How dare you speak nonsense?”
Swish-!
The axe-sword Krantel swung towards Trax’s head. When Trax tried to defend himself by raising his sword, Krantel, a massive weapon beyond belief, changed direction quickly and flexibly.
Trax also reacted once more, but a long wound remained on his cheek. If Kaiman hadn’t intervened, Trax would have been immediately overwhelmed.
“Now the deal of superiority is over, the good times are gone. The two of you, get ready and come at me. If you want to live a few more minutes, that is.”
When Luna raised her energy, the nearby subspace twisted, and cracks appeared. The incoming storm, thunder, and lightning couldn’t touch Luna; they deflected off her.
[This is crazy… Was it right to retreat as that guy said? Kaiman, should we ask Tujad to retreat even now?]
Kaiman didn’t have the luxury of answering. Luna was already wielding her axe-sword with enough force to shatter Trax.
[…Are these two really being pushed back like that right from the start? By just one person?]
Lujin and Chin found it hard to hide their surprise. Both Kaiman and Trax were 10-star knights, and between them, they were known to be close to the Genesis Knight level at that time.
[I heard that, except for Chiron Runcandel, there is no one who has reached the Genesis Knight level. But this gap…]
“It’s incomprehensible, right?”
Luntia lightly swung her sword, Charles. Just with that, the aura spread like waves from the blade.
“I’ve had moments where I’ve felt this way while watching my unnie too. But you, even while facing me from now on, will have the same thought. ‘If you’re not the Genesis Knight, how can you be so strong?’”
When she finished speaking, Luntia’s sword pierced Lujin’s chest. Lujin managed to deflect the attack with his arm, but in his mind, he could only calculate his own limits.
‘At most 50 blows… I can’t defend against more than that!’
Lujin had never encountered an opponent who could defeat him in just that number of blows. He had always thought that even a Genesis Knight couldn’t achieve such a feat.
Moreover, if they were of the same “10-star” knight level, it would be even more improbable.
Chin also felt his limits like Lujin, blocking the sword. It wasn’t about individual blows with all their strength; it was that Luntia wielded her sword expressionlessly, and that alone was enough.
“It’s hard to understand such a stark difference when we’re at the same 10-star level, isn’t it?”
[Aha!]
“Well, you don’t have the luxury of answering, do you? In any case, let me enlighten you about the difference. You lived in such a weak era. The era we’re fighting in now is truly the worst in history…”
The thousand-year war between Runcandel and Zipple reached its climax.
As if they had promised, each faction had the most powerful individuals in their history, or those who were close to being the strongest of their time in the current era.
For Runcandel, it was Chiron; for Zipple, it was Kelliark; for the Empire, it was Ron; for the Hidden Palace, it was Talaris; for Kinselo, it was Orgal.
Furthermore, the next generations were also ascending to similar ranks.
The “Demon God Orb” had existed since the early days of Jin’s reserve flagbearer career, and the wars of the great powers awakened the Black Sea King.
The birth of the evil god, and the underground forces and the true demonic world threatened the world of the surface.
As Luntia mentioned, the current era was the time with the most danger and obstacles since the beginning of human history.
“We have survived and overcome this terrible era that still continues. So, our 10-star level can’t be the same, right? Maybe they had the mindset that they could defeat the gods, just because they had cornered Peitel? According to our young patriarch, he isn’t even a true god.”
Peitel, who was listening, instantly became angry and glared at Luntia.
However, before Luntia could feel his gaze and turn around, Peitel’s anger deflated and he looked away.
‘Are they really human? These monsters… Ah, by the way, I can’t break my promise because of the seal, and I can’t do things halfway. How much do these guys plan to exploit me in the future? Damn it, it’s still better than being killed by Tujad and his gang.’
Murakan chuckled as he observed Peitel.
“Hey, you’re thinking out loud. If you survived thanks to us, you should at least be grateful. Eh?”
[Murakan…]
“Think of this as fate too. Our first encounter wasn’t great, but from now on, we can build a beautiful relationship, right? Haha, from now on, it’s all up to you. With the kids and those girls, how reassuring, isn’t it? But imagine if we weren’t here to save you; instead, we tried to capture you and kill you.”
Peitel momentarily shuddered at the thought of that situation. In the first place, he had been soundly defeated by Jin even before becoming so powerful.
[That’s… I see. Thank you.]
“By the way, why were you hiding here, leaving your contractor alone? Did you know beforehand that you were being chased?”
[…Because of Zipple’s god hunt.]
For a long time, Zipple had been capturing gods to complete the Demon God Orb. Given Peitel’s status as a high-ranking god, naturally, he was included on Zipple’s priority list for the hunt.
[I was hiding because I didn’t want to be caught by them. But I’ve found out what tricks they used to get this far.]
“In the Sun God’s religious sect, there is a person known as the ‘sanctuary maiden’. She is the one who used the tricks. Even those ghosts were brought by her. If it weren’t for us, you would have been completely defenseless against them. By the way, why is even a high-ranking god like you so weak? You couldn’t even defeat them?”
[Even though you know, why are you asking me this? For a god to fully utilize their true power in the human world, there are numerous conditions. Besides, this place isn’t originally my domain; it’s my brother’s damn tomb. I had to mimic my elder brother’s energy, so there were many restrictions.]
“The Thunder God Gram, that high-ranking god, was truly impressive. Although even he couldn’t do much against the God of Battle of the Legend Tribe. But even so, is Gram’s remaining energy here really that powerful?”
[…Just over ten minutes ago, my deceased elder brother’s will was in a very intense state. But then those guys took out something and absorbed most of that energy. It seemed to be an object like the Demon God Orb.]
“Absorbed?”
[Yes, probably to use it as material for the Demon God Orb. Frankly, my elder brother was arrogant, but he was a great god. Even his lingering will would probably be better material than most other gods. When you and Jin Runcandel defeated me in the past, it was because that will was instilled in Sigmund and helped you.]
“Even without that, you wouldn’t have defeated me. Hm, in that case, we’ll have to recover that energy after we take care of those guys.”
While Murakan and Peitel were conversing to that point, Jin and the flagbearers had almost concluded the fight.
[Cough, gasp…!]
[Exactly, let’s go in right now!]
Luna’s opponents, Kaiman and Trax, each lost an arm and were struggling to catch their breath. Lujin and Chin were struggling with their fists crushed in their gauntlets.
Tujad, too, was covered in wounds all over his body. However, he had a face full of excitement and madness instead of pain.
[After I started following the religion of the Sun God, there is only one thing I asked for. What a deliciously exciting battle it was. Even if I had to perish in this place, it would be to a degree beyond imagination.]
“Sir Tujad, you’re quite lunatic. Did you really fight for pleasure even when you were alive?”
[There is no greater pleasure than this, so it’s natural, isn’t it?]
“Since you’ve enjoyed it enough, I’ll dismiss you now.”
Following those words, Tujad took out an orb. It was the same object that Peitel had mentioned.
[Tujad! Are you planning to use that!? No, if you destroy it, none of us can achieve eternal life!]
While fighting against Luna, Trax shouted in terror. Without even responding to Trax, Tujad smiled and made eye contact with Jin.
[I give up eternal life promised for the pleasure of this moment, Jin Runcandel. Show me the swords you haven’t used yet.]
Tujad pressed the orb against his chest. Inside the orb, Gram’s lightning energy glowed.
