“Of course, that is the story when you completely became my person. Until then you are a prisoner. I’ll treat you humanely, so I hope you don’t disappoint me.”

Jin kept talking behind his back.

True to his words, Yulian had to be seen as a prisoner brought after defeating the enemy. Although he had already blown a lot of information, he could not yet be called a Jinn.

For now, even Julian wasn’t unaware that it was something he had to be grateful for saving his life. Asking him to save the guardian dragon was more of an expression of his desire to be on Jin’s side.

Yulian had never even imagined Joshua collapsing.

His family was all killed and the village he lived in disappeared without a trace. But at Hufester, no one told the story, and no group tried to find out the truth.

It was because it was what Runkandel had done.

Even as far as Julian knew, Joshua was the next head of Runcandel, and at that time he was a soloist without a competitor.

Is that all?

From cloning bodies through prophets, hunting contractors, and easily subduing and imprisoning their dragons.

Julian was forcibly subjugated to Joshua from the age of twelve. To him, Joshua was a divine being who could not be resisted, and something indescribably terrifying.

But for the first time, I saw hope in Jin.

Another runcandel who killed Joshua’s clone, not just defeating Faitel, who incarnated himself.

Somehow he seemed to help him put an end to this terrible and miserable servitude.

“…i get it.”

“Let’s slowly build trust with each other. Unlike Kuzan, you lack the motivation or grounds to stick with me. Miss Alisa?”

“Your Gongja.”

“I would like this friend, please. Until you’re sure it’s safe to lift it from the basement.”

“All right.”

I couldn’t just release a person with the ability to massacre at any time if I wanted to. Jin intended to keep Yulian in the basement for the time being.

“Oh and. If you think of another sandwich, let me know.”

Let’s leave the basement with Kuzan.

In an instant, my head became complicated.

‘The cloning was true. Besides, he’s a prophet…’

Kuzan also had a distraught face.

“Looks like you didn’t know the Prophet existed.”

“sorry.”

“I have nothing to be sorry about. You go to the basement every evening starting today and have dinner with Julian. Also, let’s find out about Joshua’s power that Julian knows about. And compare it with the information you have and make a table.”

Joshua must have known that Julian was still alive. It was because the guardian dragon of Yulian he was holding didn’t show much change.

Therefore, when Joshua’s forces were to be eliminated, the names that came from Julian had to be excluded for the time being. Otherwise, Joshua would find out about Yulian’s betrayal, so there would be no way to keep the guardian dragon alive.

Recognizing the meaning, Kuzan nodded.

“I will definitely organize and post it so that it looks like Yulian didn’t reveal the information.”

“Okay, until dinner, you should rest a bit. It’s okay to go see Berris. I’ll listen to the story about the two of you after Veris is fully recovered.”

“thank you.”

“And sooner or later, I will consult with Lord Casimir and choose your affiliation. You will probably belong to the turkey, but there will be no privileges, so earnestly receive basic education.”

“Confucius.”

“why?”

“Even if, by any chance, Veris cannot continue to use her magic… I will faithfully fulfill Veris’ role no matter what.”

As much as Kuzan and Veris have lived their entire lives as tools called hunting dogs.

They had a deep-rooted perception that they could not prolong their lives if they lost their ‘utility value’. So, I had no choice but to worry that Jin would abandon Veris.

Now Kuzan has decided to become Jin’s tool. Of course, Jin was not the type to think of humans simply as tools.

“So please don’t throw Verice away or consider her worthless?”

“…I’m sorry, but it is.”

“If the negotiations with the Saints of Bankela go well, they will give you additional treatment, even if things don’t go well. There are many places to use Berris, so don’t worry. Anyway, I’ll come to Sir Casimir’s office around noon tomorrow. Gilly will pick the room for you.”

Let Jin turn around and move on to meet the other colleagues.

Seeing that back, Kuzan bowed with sincerity.

And Quekantel, who was just passing through the hallway, grabbed Kuzan by the back of his neck and raised him up.

“What are you doing in the hallway? At this rate, he’s going to build an altar soon.”

Thanks to that, Jin smiled awkwardly after pretending not to know Kuzan’s bow. Kuzan went to the treatment room where Berris was with a shy face.

“Quikantel.”

“Have you got anything?”

“Yes, I will go and tell you.”

When I went to Casimir’s office, my colleagues were gathered.

Soon, when Jin explained the information he had obtained to Julian, not only Casimir, but also Quikantel and Latri could not hide their bewilderment.

“The sorcery of duplicating humans using human materials… that’s a terrible story. Humans are not cookie dough.”

Latri shrugged and Quikantel shook his head.

“What the hell is your older brother doing? A guy named Runkandel is trying to use a wizard to put a curse on you. Now what? a copy? Besides, that prophet has the ability to fulfill contracts, right?”

“Oh, it gives me goosebumps. I’ve thought about it before, but it’s so insidious that I can’t even think of Confucius’ bloodline.”

Just hearing the word ‘contract fulfillment’ gave Enya goosebumps as she almost became a victim of the ‘Mashinseok’.

“Do the dragons have any guesses?”

“Asmodian.”

“It looks like a demon.”

Quikantel and Latri answered simultaneously.

“It’s not an impossible story if it’s a Demon King-class demon. Except for contract execution. However, seeing as Ziple and Kingelo tried to transfer the contract to the demon stone, the demons might also have a way.”

“It’s a demon…”

Seongguk Suhojeon.

In the war where Runcandel and Ziple were the only ones to join forces, the demons suffered devastating damage and were defeated. Because of this, he was so busy with reconstruction that he was unable to intervene greatly in royalties.

“Or the witch Heluram. If it’s that woman, it’s not strange no matter what she does. Whether cloning humans or transferring contracts. It seems possible enough.”

“Either the Demons or the Helluram. We need to figure out how the alternate Joshua got involved and what his purpose was. But…”

Jin blurts out.

“Realistically, that seems difficult. It’s too risky to even put a turkey in. I also think that maybe it could be a person who is not only Joshua, but also a person who is connected at the family level.”

“It is quite possible, Confucius. A person like that is by Joshua’s side, and I don’t think the key people in Runkandel are completely unaware of that fact.”

Everyone nodded.

If Runcandel were such an incompetent family, there would have been no quarreling with Ziffle over world supremacy.

“Is Runkandel pretending not to know that Joshua is with the Prophet, or is he providing full support? That would be the most important thing.”

Casimir said in a heavy voice.

“If it’s the latter, I don’t know what Temar will think when he sees my descendants.”

“I don’t think I should approach this issue recklessly until I become a jockey.”

Otherwise, you could face a headwind that you couldn’t handle.

It was also impossible to go and ask Shiron. They said they had witnesses, but that wasn’t enough, and they didn’t know what kind of treatment they would receive if they asked for help in the ‘rank war’.

‘As long as Kingelo and Ziple have a lot of history hidden beneath the surface, our family can do the same. Does Joshua get his mother’s full support just because he’s good at it?’

As a reserve horseman, I have uncovered many secrets of each giant force.

Ziple is doing all kinds of dirty tricks to become the only god, and Kinzelo was doing something similar.

Bement has not yet directly collided with Jin, but it seems that he has his legs crossed on both sides of Zipple and Kinzelo.

In the midst of that, there was no way that Runkandel was the only one not preparing anything.

-you’re welcome! Even your older sister could catch up if she wanted to. But do you know the youngest? What lurks on the other side of the world you haven’t experienced.

-Why did it seem that Runkandel couldn’t get over Zipple even though my father was there? Why did my father seem to be disappointed in me and not kick me out? It’s because you know that even if I’m not happy with you, I’m the one who’s more wary of enemies than anyone else in the Garden of Swords.

Suddenly, the words Joshua had uttered in the Blue Bird Islands came to mind.

Ziffle and Kingelo actually want the same thing.

To be the sole master of the world.

‘There’s no way the family doesn’t know what I know. Did Joshua mean that he was the one who was most wary of Kingelo and Zipple?’

If Runkandel doesn’t deny the existence of the ‘prophet’, it must be because that’s part of it.

‘Or is there something I don’t know about?’

After thinking for a while, Jin looked at his colleagues as if he had made up his mind.

“I don’t think it’s time to fill the five years that my father gave me. We need to come up with a plan to return to the family a little sooner.”

It was now the point of becoming a reserve jockey and three years.

And as a reserve jockey, there was a limit to the information he could find out. In particular, information related to Runkandel is inaccessible.

“When are you planning to return?”

“Early ’99 would be good.”

“Since it is now October of 1997… that means about a year left.”

“I have to sort out the things I need to acquire and build a reputation that will not go unnoticed in my family. As for the woman who claims to be a prophet or something, let’s openly find out as a rider at that time.”

Their military power has already exceeded the level sufficient to become the standard bearer of Runkandel. Building a reputation could also be done at any time, in as many names as needed.

However, I wasn’t ready to go back right away. Ready to fight Joshua’s ‘base’.

Ten active duty black knights.

And the elders, his knights, and the warriors of Hufester who were subordinate to him. Excluding the Prophet, only the power revealed on the outside was that much.

Jin will have to fight them right after becoming a rider.

“It would be nice if Murakan could only regain about 50% of his old strength before you return. Then I can have a good time.”

“Since I left with a big decision to meet my sister, I’m sure I’ll come back with something different.”

The time Murakan said it would take to find his sister was roughly two months.

However, Jin and his colleagues received word a month later that they “supposedly” had something to do with Murakan.
