Swordmaster's Youngest Son

Chapter 731

C731

Jin Runcandel descends.

All the allies on the battlefield stared at the glowing red letters. Even the Chaos Dragon and the Black Ships paused for a moment.

On this battlefield, the name “Jin Runcandel” carried great significance.

For both allies and enemies alike.

The Chaos Army consisted of the creatures of the evil god, and to them, Rosa was like a “mother.”

But the mother’s attention and affection were directed at only one person, Jin Runcandel.

The creatures of the evil god were aware that they couldn’t even compare to Jin.

This was because they could read Rosa’s innermost thoughts.

They knew where her intentions, her heart, and her will were directed—what she desired and what lay at the end of her love and boundless hatred.

The creatures of the evil god harbored twisted feelings of inferiority toward Jin.

As Rosa became more complete, the creatures could read her inner thoughts more clearly, and now was the time when their tremendous animosity toward Jin erupted.

[Jin...... Run...... can... del!]

A Chaos Dragon descended upon Jin with a sinister and chilling voice.

The horde following it also attacked Jin as they descended.

“You can even speak the human language.”

Jin spoke in a dry tone.

In an instant, he disappeared from among the Chaos Dragons, hidden by them.

Swish-!

Bradamante traced a semicircle.

The Chaos Dragons that had attacked Jin disintegrated or shattered in the air before the afterimage of the semicircle vanished.

In an instant, over twenty Chaos Dragons were dead.

Jin was unaffected by the barrier’s influence.

It wasn’t because Jin was a being born of Rosa, like the creatures of chaos.

The cloak of Shadow Energy that surrounded Jin like a mantle countered the barrier’s force.

“Incompatible.”

Without halting his descent, Jin spread elemental frost mana into the air, creating a path.

Beneath Jin’s descending feet, twinkling ice crystals scattered like a galaxy.

Shadow Blade, First Technique: Soul Slash.

A human wielded his sword against the enormous barrier.

No matter how sharp his sword was, it could only create a small crack considering the scale of the barrier.

However, Jin’s descending sword showed no signs of stopping.

At the speed gravity dragged him, the barrier was splitting in half.

“Protect Jin!”

“Protect the Twelfth Flagbearer!”

Protection was unnecessary.

Despite being attacked by the breath of the Chaos Dragons and the cannons of the Black Ships in a swarm, they couldn’t penetrate the extensive cloak of Shadow Energy. RâꞐôВĘṤ

Jin appeared completely focused on breaking through the barriers, paying no attention to those attackers.

As Jin landed on the ground, those who witnessed him and the split barrier could only think of one thing.

Cutting it in half with a single sword strike.

A massive sword had split the center of the barrier in a straight line, leaving even the giants stunned.

The barrier that had baffled countless fleets, dragons, the finest elites of each faction, and the heroes of humanity just moments ago was now split in half by a single sword.

Of course, the barrier hadn’t disappeared yet.

The relentless gravitational force had weakened slightly due to the division, but the crack was still too narrow for the fleets and dragons to pass through.

Thus, Jin’s comrades and allies still had work to do.

“Hedo-nim, Bale!”

Responding to Jin’s thunderous call that echoed across the battlefield, the two individuals immediately landed on the ground and took positions beside Jin.

“You two, please widen the crack. In the meantime, I’ll take care of the sky for a while.”

[Lay a finger on my Shakan, I dare you.]

Only three factions remained, but Beradin had already consolidated his fleet at the center the moment Jin descended.

“Advance!”

The fleet began its march to the other side of the barrier.

No more Chaos Dragons or Black Ships appeared below the battleship Ram.

As the fortress of the evil god drew closer, its dreadful aura became more palpable.

Due to the low altitude, even the allies of the fleet couldn’t see the sky clearly beyond the fortress.

The war had just passed its starting point.

The role of the Chaos Dragon and the Black Ship in the evil god’s army wasn’t significant.

They were sufficient for the mass slaughter of individuals below the level of 7 stars, but they had clear limitations when facing an army with individuals like Jin or superhumans.

In the first place, if not for the enormous fortress of the evil god, the battle wouldn’t have taken place properly.

The real threats were the swordmasters tainted by chaos.

The ancient heroes of the mausoleum who commanded them, the countless variables within the fortress, and the evil god itself.

Ram’s presence was also a constant concern.

For now, it seemed that Lynn had successfully held off Ram, but it could re-activate at any moment.

Rosa can’t be unaware of Dame Lynn’s betrayal. We must infiltrate as many forces into the fortress as possible before Ram returns to normal. We can’t let Dame Lynn’s sacrifice be in vain.

At the moment Jin thought to that extent.

The battlefield began to tremble as if a gigantic monster were awakening from the depths of the earth, shaking the surface.

The gates of the evil god’s fortress began to open.

The immense gates harbored a darkness as deep as the abyss itself.

“Full fleet, load maximum firepower, fire immediately!”

Beradin immediately ordered the bombardment to prevent the allies from being overwhelmed by the visible darkness between the open gates.

Jin thought Beradin had made a very wise decision.

The darkness of the fortress gates had a terrifying power that could scare people just by itself.

There was no reason to wait for the enemy to appear.

Kwah-!

Hundreds of shots were fired into the deep darkness.

If it had been a human fortress, the entire structure would have been annihilated, leaving no trace.

However, the shots were no different from pebbles falling into a well.

The bombardment continued, but there wasn’t even a distant explosion heard from within the fortress. It simply vanished without a trace.

“Cease fire!”

There was no reason to waste mana on futile attacks.

Beradin immediately ordered the bombardment to stop, but it was undeniable that it had backfired.

And this was because the large-scale bombardment by the entire fleet was no different from pebbles falling into a well.

As in any war, the morale of the troops also played a crucial role in this battle.

Simply being on the battlefield was enough to oppress everyone’s hearts due to the power of the evil god, not to mention the other factors.

Beradin had no choice but to ponder his order, and a few seconds of silence passed.

Then, Jin took a deep breath and let out a shout as he unleashed his energy, indiscriminately firing his sword toward the fortress walls.

Unlike the bombardment that simply disappeared into the open gates, the walls showed visible signs of being struck by the physical impact.

The stone cracked, and metallic sounds of breaking resonated in the air.

“There is no such thing as an impregnable fortress. Today, that fortress will disappear without a trace. So, allies, strike calmly at the walls and prepare for battle. The enemy will soon emerge from within.”

Jin said this while gripping his sword firmly.

He could feel the presence twisting inside the open gates, as if it were about to erupt at any moment.

“And they too shall perish today by our hands.”
