Ha……!
Thunderbolts poured down wherever Sigmund and Silus’ blades collided. They showed no signs of backing down, even as they were hit by the thunderbolt of Plutonian reigning sword vomited by the black clouds and the blue lighting bolts poured out by thunders of hell.
On the contrary, they stepped towards each other more ferociously and quickly.
The aftermath of that fight is now striking the entire Garden of Swords. Beyond the tomb where the swords of the clan’s guardians were stuck, the storm of thunderbolts spread to the outer wall and the main house.
Kaio, who started attacking again, was not affected by the Plutonian’s reign Sword.
Rather, he seemed to strengthen his body with Jin’s lightning, just as he resonated with the energy of battle god.
Still, the whole of Kalon was eroded by chaos, but the energy of chaos could no longer be found in the Garden of Swords.
It was because the thunderbolt of Jin, Kaio, and Padler had erased the chaos in the Garden of Swords.
But to Jin, seeing the blue shining garden of swords was more painful rather than the time when it was full of chaos.
[Ahhhhh……!]
Padler roared. His body was breaking. There was a hole in his left cheek and in the waist, and there was a terrible sound of bones breaking, repeating twisting and stretching.
Just then, a giant arrow from god killer pierced the middle of his chest. Through his pierced chest, you could see the thunderbolts behind him.
Even so, Padler did not fall down and swung his sword again. The body, which should have died and stopped more than ten times, gave off more and more strength the more it cut.
Where do I have to cut to finish him?
It seemed like it wouldn’t stop even if his neck is dropped. It seemed that he would stop only if everything that made up Padler’s body destroyed, even his blood, his flesh, and the last piece of bone.
“A terrible ghost…….”
Kaio said as he pulled his bow string. Terrible, that word did not mean the power of chaos that made up Padler. It meant a special condition that Padler was going through.
Transcendence.
The transcendence of a martial artist who overcomes the limits while facing a formidable enemy, the reason why Padler can continue to wield his sword even when he is so broken and torn.
Just as Ron Hairan who overcame his fate of death by himself in the war of the sword Emperor castle…… Padler is also crossing the boundary by mixing swords with Jin.
‘Temar. I can see it now too…… the next realm.’
With each passing second, Padler felt his body grow lighter.
It seemed that the destructive power of the original, Plutonian Reign Sword, which overpowered thunders of hell at the beginning, could no longer be a threat.
There wasn’t much emotion while he was striking Sigmund, and even when lighting cut through his body, he didn’t feel any pain.
“But even if you goes beyond that realm…… what could it mean?”
The arrow of Kaio passed through Padler once more.
“Only a futile hatred that cannot overcome even chaos. You could never beat Brother Jin. Even if he didn’t called me.”
Just because you’re transcending like Ron, it doesn’t mean everyone can achieve results like Ron.
Even after being engulfed in chaos, the desire to protect people and the desire to kill could not have the same value.
As if to refute, Padler dug in and left a long cut on Jin’s chest. Jin pushed Padler back without even moving. There was a pop like something snapped, and Padler rolled across the floor.
Then he stood up again and aimed Silus. As his appearance became more miserable, the energy of the thunders of hell was amplified.
It was growing endlessly. In terms of power alone, thunders of hell reached a level comparable to that of Plutonian’s reigning sword.
It even seemed out of control. The blue lighting went beyond the black cloud formed by the Plutonian’s reigning sword and caused damage to Ram, the chaos dragon, and the black ships.
“In the end, you lost your temper and started attacking allies. There’s nothing wrong with Brother Jin’s point of view.”
[He is not losing his mind, brother Kaio.]
Jin rather thought the opposite.
“What?”
[It will be the end anyway, so it seems like he is trying to destroy everything possible in Runcandel…….]
Wow……!
A crack spread like a huge cavity in the lower part of Ram. The chaos dragons and black ships that were flying below them instantly turned to ashes.
The giant forces waiting outside were able to see Ram becoming unstable for the first time.
The road to the sky began to open.
“As the leader said, the 12th flagbearer is damaging Ram’s power…….”
Berakt said. He was mesmerized by the thunderbolts that lighting up the Garden of Swords following the blue flames from earlier.
They were in awe and trembling due to the gigantic energy that they would never have seen unless it is the patriarch, Chiron Runcandel, or the dead Ron Hairan.
[It is not the power of the 12th flagbearer, but the power of the old ten great knight of Runcandel, the Blue Thunder King. Rosa Runcandel and the Prophet were too greedy.]
“…… Are you saying that there are warriors like the 12th flagbearer in the Garden of Swords again?”
[Yes. But it’s a dying ember. The entire fleet, ready for intensive bombardment. We should not miss this opportunity.]
Unlike Zipfel, Kinzelo’s fleet has not yet suffered significant damage.
As the flying ships, led by Grenil, gathered at the forefront, the fleet of up to five hundred ships all loaded their main cannons.
Aaaaa……!
A meteor shower rained down on Ram and the Garden of Swords. More than 80% of the fleet’s attack was directed at the garden of the sword, because it seemed that their attack would not be enough to hit Ram, but Zephyrin’s breath struck Ram’s side.
On the other side, seeing Kinzelo’s bombardment, Zipfel also rallied its fleet. Their main cannons were all aimed at Ram.
[We must strike before Runcandel’s ship recovers……!]
A mountain of fire was forming behind Kadun. He managed to release all his stored power while enduring Ram’s main cannon and tearing apart the Chaos Dragon and the black ships.
‘Damn it, the soul of ten great knight from the tomb…… I didn’t expect this to happen.’
The Prophet bit her lip and looked at Rosa’s eyes.
It was Rosa who instructed to summon Padler. So, Rosa would not have held her accountable even if Padler had lost to Jin.
But the failure to control Padler, regardless of the success of killing Jin, is stem from the Prophet’s lack of ability.
The prophet was once again caught by her weakness if Rosa held her accountable for that in future.
‘Hu, nothing’s going to happen. Judging by the war situation, even Padler…… It seems he can’t beat Jin. I should have warned her that using a soul of ten great knight now is dangerous.’
Even Prophet had predicted that Stam and Lionel would not be enough, but Padler’s case was truly unexpected. She knew that even if there were variables such as summoning Plutonian tribesmen and Plutonian reigning sword, if it was Padler, he would be able to put an end to Jin.
‘…… Maybe, it could be a good thing. If even Padler is finished, Rosa Runcandel will have to move herself.’
If so, it is highly likely that the speed at which Rosa’s mind collapse will accelerate. However, there was no justification for the prophet to say that Rosa should step in first. So while she was thinking about it, Rosa opened her mouth first.
[I see why Joshua in the past got defeated like that. Retrieve Padler’s soul.]
“Are you saying you want to go out yourself?”
Rosa didn’t answer, but slashed the approaching flames of Kadun. Fragments of Ram, chaos dragons, and black ships were floated in the messy black sky. In the meantime, Kinzelo’s bombardment was hitting the garden of swords.
“Humans, are you going to challenge the gods like us? I only heard from my brother that it was dizzy outside, but I didn’t expect it to be like this.”
Kaio fired god killer and intercepted the artillery fire falling towards Jin. Most of them were offset by Plutonian’s reigning sword and blue lightning, but occasionally there were shells that penetrated.
Because Jin is arranging the power.
It was only natural that he was dealing with strong men like Stam, Lionel and Padler, one after another who would have been absolute beings in any era without Chiron.
However, unlike Jin, Padler had no one to block the bombardment, nor the will to strike out on his own.
He didn’t even dodge the artillery fire that came into thunderbolt, and continued to radiate blue lightning all over the garden of sword and Jin.
An evil ghost who transcendence through hatred, the final destination Padler was reaching resembled a monster like Smarion.
His appearance was no longer of a human. More than 70% of the body, which had been emitting a faint indigo color, had disappeared. The floating body without legs had holes all over it.
How he was holding the sword with only three remaining fingers, with his half head gone, and his only eye was still filled with hatred.
Can it really be called the result of transcendence?
The outcome was, in fact, decided from the moment the Plutonian’s Reign Sword was unleashed. It was only for the efficiency that Jin was unable to finish him off.
If Jin wait a little bit, all the thunders of hell will turn off and Padler would self-destruct.
After that, if even one of his fingers was left, it was clear that Padler wouldn’t be a threat even he crawl on the floor and come towards him.
The thunders of hell started to subside.
But next moment. Just like what happened to Lionel. Jin could see the soul draining from Padler’s remaining body.
Unlike Lionel, the soul was refusing to leave the body. He was clearly resisting Prophet’s control.
“I have never seen such a grudge in my life, Brother Jin. Brother? Why are you approaching him? Isn’t your shadow sword still unable to cut the soul? He is not even worthy to cut. Since he is already in a mess.”
Jin had a completely different thought when he was trying to cut Lionel’s soul.
Jin was just approaching Padler because he wanted to tell him something.
[Sir Padler.]
Padler swung his sword at the approaching Jin. The sword was just as powerful as a child wielding it. There was not even a scratch left on Jin’s body.
No matter how great the grudge was, Padler’s energy had really run out.
[Sir, you will be summoned again. That’s the only reason why the person who summoned you is trying to retrieve the soul now.]
Even then, Padler continued to swing his sword. Resisting the retrieval of the Prophet’s soul.
[So at that time, take revenge on me, rather then Runcandel and Temar from a thousand years ago……. Please bear hatred for me, not the distant past about which even your memories are unclear.]
That would surely be better for you…….
Jin continued his words and watched Padler’s soul escape.
