章節 487: CHAPTER 646
[T.L: punisher87]

Ilina couldn't understand Rosa's intentions at the time. Just a few hours ago, Rosa had been extremely wary of losing her sanity.
Rosa had never changed her attitude since making a contract with her. Threats, persuasion, temptation. No matter how the prophet approached her, Rosa never abandoned her principle. The principle that she wouldn't 'completely' assimilate into the power of chaos.
But the current Rosa was displaying a completely different demeanor from her past actions.
Ilina expected, no, she was certain that if she accelerated the chaos further, Rosa's mind would collapse.
No, she is sure.
'If she fires Ram's main cannon, she will surely lose both her sanity and will...…!'
As Rosa said, Ilina always hoped that she would break, but if it happened now, with so much chaos consumed, if the medium of Rosa's will disappeared, it would take too much time to recover.
If at that time the enemies regrouped and attacked the Garden of Swords again, Ilina wasn't confident she could handle it.
Unlike the two major factions that lost their entire fleet, Jin only suffered personal injuries, and since they were not fatal, it wouldn't take too long to recover.
"Yes, that's right. I've longed for your will to crumble. But if it crumbles now, I won't be able to bear the consequences alone. I mean it. Wasn't this not part of your plan from the beginning?"
The main cannon was about to recharge.
"If you had made this decision before summoning the great knight and personally intervening, of course, I would have been pleased. But now... it's not right. It's an unreasonable decision!"
[You seem to be completely terrified.]
Rosa's eyes flashed black. In the end, Ilina knelt down to plead with Rosa, but as expected,
Rosa had no intention of stopping.
[Only I…. can beat the youngest. I can break that radiant child and sever the bonds that protect him.]
Kwaaang...!
Ram's cannon once again vomited black energy that divided the sky. It felt like a black tsunami unfolded behind Murakan.
Ram's main cannon came as a shock to Murakan, who had easily received Rosa's secret technique throughout.
[This is insane...…!]
There was no way to dodge it.
The cannon that destroyed the 2nd fleet in a single blow had more terrible power than before.
Heh, ha ha ha...…!
Amidst the tremendous roar of the cannon, Rosa's mad laughter could be heard. The sky and the ground, shrouded in chaos, were laughing with her.
"Up!"
Jin shouted. Murakan had originally planned to block the cannon and descend, but as always, he followed Jin's opinion.
Jin believed that Ram's cannon fire should be directed upward.
Although it would take them further from the escape point, Jin judged that if Ram's main cannon were to be aimed downward, the entire forest with the Red Owl would disappear.
Then the escape would be over. The moment Murakan was forcibly recalled, the rest of the party would become dead meat.
Murakan increased his speed upwards. The protective shields and curtains in the rear were torn apart.
Before they could shatter completely, the shock began to spread. Jin and Kaio managed to hold onto consciousness amidst the pain.
[Aaaa...…!]
Soon, Murakan swept away the clouds of chaos as he escaped the cannon fire.
The shadow force shield was in shambles, but there were no fatal injuries.
The shield was quickly restored. Even Jin was impressed by Murakan's strength, but the problem was that the cannon fire was not over yet.
[Tsk...! They won't be able to reload that quickly, right?]
"I don't think so."
Unlike Murakan who was flying forward without looking back, Jin turned around to check on Ram's condition.
"Just now..."
The Abyssal ship, Ram, was once again opening its dark maw, and a new cannon was already being reloaded.
[Damn it, it would have been almost impossible to escape in the first place if I hadn't been able to save my strength thanks to Orgal...….]
Rosa's mad laughter continued to weigh down on the group. It seemed like Ram was mocking them.
A shiver ran through their spines.
If Glyek awakened the primal fear of life, Rosa's madness was digging a dark hole in the human mind all by itself.
It wasn't chaos; it was piercing through the innermost depths of those who watched, like a sharp arrow.
[Oh, oh....]
Rosa exclaimed in admiration.
It was a strange feeling. Despite firing the cannon to kill, the fact that he always survived seemed insanely enjoyable.
It was the first time in her life that she felt such great happiness.
The gathered power in Ram's maw once again targeted Murakan.
Even though it looked like a dot from a distance, Rosa seemed to see her son vividly before her eyes.
"No, don't...!"
By that time, Ilina had judged that Rosa's mind had completely collapsed.
So before Rosa could fire the second shot, she had to control her somehow. Rosa seemed like she wouldn't stop shelling until Ram was completely destroyed.
Thunk!
A dagger stabbed into Rosa's back. It was the dagger Ilina took from her bosom.
The blade passed through Rosa's spine and pierced right through her heart, and Rosa twitched for a moment before stopping moving.
"Stop! You'll die too if you keep this up!"
Rosa did not look back at Ilina. She didn't even look at the blade sticking out of her chest.
She fired the main cannon instead. The eerie laughter still emanated from her dry lips.
This time, she even gathered the minimal chaos that was protecting Ram.
'If this continues, everything will end...!'
Ilina managed to pull out the dagger from Rosa's back with her legs, which had regained strength.
Then she attempted to stab her in the neck again.
But for some reason, she couldn't muster any strength.
More precisely, even though she tried with all her might, her body wouldn't move. Something invisible was holding Ilina back.
Boom-!
At the same time, Ram's massive hull tilted slightly to the right. With the hull's protective shield gone, both fleets were now seriously striking Ram.
Some of the cannons, numbering in the thousands, reached the forefront where they stood on Ram.
There were holes all over the hull, and sharp shards and debris pierced Rosa's body. Ilina was able to strike as many cannon fire as she could.
Ilina could easily fend off such attacks, but only if her body could move. It would be as easy as breathing if she could also wield the power of the chaos that was bound with her.
But Ilina couldn't do anything. All she could do was watch as the bombardment fell, just as she had been poised to stab Rosa.
'What in the world... is restraining me!?'
Ilina's heart pounded in her chest as she looked at Rosa's back.
'There's no way Rosa could be doing this!'
Surely, a being who had already lost their sanity and become a monster of chaos couldn't restrain her.
But what was restraining her was undoubtedly Rosa's power.
"S-Surely... You... You're not... still in the process of, of assimilation...?" Ilina asked hesitantly.
[Quite....]
As Rosa began to speak, terror filled Ilina's eyes.
[Be quiet...… I don't want to be disturbed by anyone right now.]
Eventually, Rosa released Ilina. Ilina, who sank to her knees and began to gasp for breath, had no choice but to obey her words.
It was overwhelming.
To think that she had been overwhelmed by a human named Rosa Runcandel.
[Can you see it too, my youngest? Countless bombardment of enemies are rushing to kill this mother! But none of it can touch me directly. There's no need to block or avoid anything.]
Because it is fate. Nothing trivial can interfere with the fate that lies between you and me now.
Indeed, as Rosa said, despite so many attacks striking the forefront, there was not a single shot that directly hit her. They all just missed, bouncing off with only debris flying.
With all her heart, Rosa was looking only at her youngest son, thinking only about shooting him dead.
A smile spread across Rosa's lips.
At the same time, the second shot imbued with the power of the chaos began to extend towards Murakan. The darkness of the abyss was once again engulfing the group.
The time allotted to Murakan had come to an end, precisely at that moment.
"Down!"
This time, they were descending.
There was no point in trying to stop the second barrage. Murakan was going to disappear now, and the group had no power to defend against it.
Before the barrage could hit them, Murakan's time would come to an end.
[Kid!]
"I won't die...!"
Jin held on to Talaris and Mort as hard as he could. Then he bit Bradamante into his mouth and pointed the blade downward.
Kaio accurately understood what Jin was thinking.
"What's the Aim point!"
"Center of the forest!"
Because of this, Kaio also hurriedly stuck his feet into the wounds on Murakan's back. Pulling the arrow of the god killer and aimed at Bradamante's blade.
By that time, Murakan's body had become semi-transparent and Ram's barrage seemed to be about to touch Murakan's tail.
Shoot!
As soon as their eyes met, Kaio let go of the bowstring.
Snap!
The arrow of the god killer struck Bradamante's blade. Although he felt a terrible recoil from the arrow throughout his body, Jin endured it with all his might.
He was holding Talaris and Mort tightly with both arms. Jin started to fall into the forest where the red owl was. Kaio's last will to save his brethren was imbued in the arrow, which was firmly attached to Bradamante's blade like a magnet.
The moment Ram's main cannon hit them. Murakan disappeared with his eyes fixed on Jin, and Kaio raised his thumb high in the sky.
His arrow demonstrated a tremendous force, instantly slamming Jin, Talaris, and Mort into the center of the forest.
"Ugh...!"
Spitting out blood, Jin immediately got up and checked on Talaris and Mort, both of them were in bad shape.
Talaris was nearly unconscious from the internal injuries and the impact of the arrow, and Mort remained motionless, as if dead.
Looking around, there was no sign of the red owl.
Although they fell in the center of the forest, he was about 500 steps away from the red owl.
'Which way...!'
At such a moment, the forest was like a maze.
The next attack would land in the forest for sure.
[Bong... Oog....]
In a moment of uncertainty, Mort opened the dimensional portal to the snow garden. Dark spots of chaos were visible all over the pure white snowfield.
If they fell more than a hundred steps away, Mort would not have been able to open the portal. As if fated, Mort only had the strength to open a portal only 500 steps away.
Once they entered the portal, Jin, holding Talaris, made his way towards the location of the Red Owl using the snow garden as a shortcut.
When he pressed the button in the center of the cabin, the red owl vibrated with mana and started to accelerate.
The acceleration required to jump the space is about 10 seconds.
'All that remains is to hope that the next bombardment will not be prepared...!'
One.
Two.
Three...
...
Nine.
The spatial-jump has begun.
As Jin was engulfed in the dazed sensation unique to spatial-jump, he looked up at Ram.
It felt like he had made eye contact with Rosa.
[You will come back to this mother again soon. I'll be waiting...….]
Rosa was gazing at the forest where Jin had disappeared, calming down the overwhelming excitement that seemed to make her heart burst.

章節 488: CHAPTER 647
[T.L: punisher87]
[My ko-fi link:- https://ko-fi.com/punisher87 ]
The Red Owl couldn't teleport directly to Tikan, the designated return coordinates.
Originally, Red Owl and Mort were not affected by chaos particles, but the chaos of Rosa that covered Kalon was so thick that it exceeded those standards.
It had crash-landed multiple times in unnamed forests, seas, and islands.
The Red Owl's hull was corroded with chaos, and every time it attempted a spatial-jump, the power source emitted an uneasy noise.
'According to the manual, there's a high probability that we'll eventually reach the designated coordinates as long as the power core and the cockpit aren't completely destroyed... but...'
The problem was Talaris.
Heat like a fireball was surging from her unconscious body.
Her pulse was unstable, and the backflow reaction was so severe that it sometimes discharged her aura randomly.
She needed treatment as soon as possible.
Jin wanted to send Talaris first to the healers on Shuri. However, even Shuri had to wander for a long time to find her way from current location.
Jin had no choice but to continue attempting spatial jumps, hoping to land near the Holy land or make it to Tikan.
The ship made five spatial jumps but all were failures. The red owl kept falling on the wrong ground.
However, it was clear that they were moving away from Huphester, and the chaos sticking to the hull was falling off with each jump, and the power source was becoming more stable. It felt like they would arrive at Tikan soon if they kept going like this.
Just as he was about to press the button in the center of the cockpit again, Jin heard a familiar voice out of nowhere.
(Eh, Jin!?)
It was Lingling's voice. It was very faint, but it was definitely Lingling.
"... Lingling!?"
Jin looked around as if possessed by a ghost at the moment. Naturally, he couldn't see Lingling anywhere.
But it wasn't just Lingling's voice that he could hear.
(What, why are you suddenly in my head!? No, more than that, can you hear my voice?)
"I can hear you. Can you hear me too?"
(Uh, I feel sick!)
(What, Brother Jin!?)
(Brother Jin!? Didn't Brother Kaio just get summoned?)
(Where is brother Jin!? Lingling, are you really talking to Jin right now?)
(How am I supposed to explain this? Suddenly, I saw that idiot's face in my mind and heard his voice. He was babbling while pressing some button. There's a white-haired human collapsed next to him.)
(Button? Babbling? Collapsed human? Is brother Jin in danger?)
"Brethren! Can't you hear my voice?"
(Can't you hear that voice?)
(Are you playing a prank, Lingling?)
(Ah, this is frustrating! I'm telling the truth! Jin is really hearing your voices.)
For a few seconds, there was confusion and mixed messages between Jin, Lingling, and the Plutonians.
Jin could hear everyone's voices, but it seems Laprarosa wasn't able to hear him.
(Brethren, Lingling is not joking. It seems like he's really hearing brother Jin's voice.)
(Ohh. What is going on, Sister battle god!)
As Vahn was connected to Lingling internally, she immediately recognized the situation.
(It seems like there's some kind of resonance between Jin and Lingling for some reason. Lingling, please relay brother Jin's message to us. Brother Jin, what about outside? You summoned brother 10th battle king, was there anything you couldn't handle?)
Jin briefly explained what had happened in the Garden of Swords.
(The human world is turning into hell. It would be great if we could go outside right away to help our brother.)
"You've already helped enough, sister battle god."
(Still, seeing this sudden connection between Laprarosa and the human world, it seems like the day we go outside is not too far away.)
Wavelength-tracking synchronous spatial-jump.
Jin suspected that this sudden "connection" had something to do with it.
"Probably because of the flying ship that my companion built. It seems like the flying ship accidentally caught the wavelength of Laprarosa."
His speculation was correct. The reason the red owl caught Laprarosa's wavelength was a kind of error.
(First of all, I heard that your companion's condition is critical. If it is a white-haired person, it's probably Talaris Endorma, who has saved you many times, brother.)
"Yes, the internal injuries are serious."
(Close your eyes, try to concentrate. Maybe I can help her through Lingling and you, brother.)
Vahn's words were no different. She was trying battle god fusion. Jin immediately closed his eyes and focused on the resonance point with Lingling.
Then, just like it happened in Laprarosa, Jin felt his illuminating heart lighten up and he could feel Vahn's senses and energy gradually being transmitted.
'It's a little weaker than when I did it in Laprarosa ... but battle god fusion is clearly achieved...…!'
Perhaps because of the dimensional distance between the human world and Laprarosa, the sense of Vahn was not completely conveyed. But that alone was enough to examine Talaris' condition.
(Both the meridians and blood vessels are damaged. The divine power with the attribute of cold energy is preventing the worst-case scenario. But at this rate, she'll reach her limit within an hour or two.)
"If that happens...."
(She may not die, but she will no longer be able to manifest the same level of power as before.)
Until they entered battle god fusion, Jin could only assume that the situation was not that serious, but now Jin could accurately perceive what Vahn was feeling.
(Follow my senses and infuse energy into her body. Erase the cold energy that seems about to break off immediately and fill the void with lightning energy.)
Jin followed Vahn's words and placed his hand on Talaris' back. Through the tangled blood vessels, Jin's energy slowly dug into her injuries.
Even though it was just for a moment, Jin broke into a cold sweat. While unconscious, Talaris was spewing out black blood clots, and Jin felt like he was walking on a tightrope over her life.
But Jin believed in Vahn. Unlike his anxious self, he didn't feel the slightest worry inside Vahn.
"Huh...."
Eventually, the feverish heat that was melting her whole body subsided, and Talaris let out a warm breath.
Although Talaris had not regained consciousness, she now appeared to be sleeping peacefully.
(Well done. But, Brother Jin, this is just a temporary solution. You must start full-scale treatment within at least three days.)
"Okay, sister battle god!"
Jin wanted to spend more time with his brethren, but the situation didn't allow for it.
Jin had to try spatial jumps again. Fortunately, he passed the hurdle of Talaris, but it was never safe until he returned to Tikan.
Even after returning, there were still issues. The power that Rosa Runcandel possessed, which he had experienced firsthand, overwhelmed all other major factions.
Jin had to hurry up and inform his companions about this fact and prepare for the future.
Maybe he would need to make the decision to evacuate the entire Tikan.
If Rosa's Runcandel immediately started pursuing Tikan with all its might, Jin and his companions would have no way of stopping it.
This story applied not only to Tikan but to all other factions as well. No matter how formidable the hidden power they possessed, it seemed unlikely that they could surpass Rosa's Runcandel.
They had already brought a fleet close to their full strength, but suffered a defeat.
Jin didn't witness the battle to the end, but he couldn't imagine that Rosa had been defeated.
"Brethren, Lingling. I'll be going now. I will investigate this coincidence as soon as I return. As sister battle said, this coincidence seems to be a big clue for the brethren to come out."
The frequency of their fusion was decreasing. Vahn was withdrawing her strength before Jin could release it.
(Go, Brother Jin. We will wait for the day when we can get in touch again.)
(Hmph, go away quickly! Don't cause trouble somewhere else.)
After saying goodbye to his brethren, Jin pressed the button on the red owl again.
* * *
February 27, 1803.
It took Jin two days before he could arrive at Tikan.
He made ten or so Spatial jumps since he stabilized Talaris's internal wounds, but he never connected to Laprarosa again.
Talaris was evacuated to the Holy Land as soon as they arrived, and Jin received information collected by his other companions.
Fortunately. After that day, Runcandel hadn't sent any troops outside.
"We're not sure if they're not sending or if they can't."
"I believe it's the latter. Runcandel needs time to recover its strength, and more importantly, using that much power must have come with a terrible cost."
"I agree, Lord Jin. However, reports indicate that over 50% of the entire continent of the Huphester Alliance, including the Garden of Swords and the city of Kalon, has been consumed by chaos. It happened in just two days... between the time when you escaped and now."
It was no exaggeration to say that the entire continent of Huphester was being engulfed by chaos. And all this erosion happened in just two days.
The internal situation was entirely uncertain. It wasn't even possible to enter the lands where erosion hadn't yet occurred.
"Perhaps the Garden of Swords plans to consume the entire world in this manner. If the whole world falls into chaos, there would be no need for them to track us or any other forces..."
Zipfel and Kinzelo. They continued their all-out attack after Jin's escape, but eventually decided to retreat, having suffered significant losses.
"According to the report received at noon today, only three fleets' Zipfel appeared over the territorial waters of the Lutero Magic Federation."
"If that's true, then it means they lost half of their six fleets. Has there been any confirmation regarding Kinzelo?"
"Yes, but there have been no reports of a retreat from any expected route. It is assumed that they retreated through Orgal's ability. In that case, their situation might be better than Zipfel's."
Unlike Jin, his companions understood the situation solely through the reports of Seven-Colored peacock after the battle.
All of the reports were shocking. No one had expected Rosa's Runcandel to achieve victory against Jin and the other factions.
Furthermore, Rosa Runcandel was no longer acting matriarch.
She had announced to the world that she was now Runcandel's "patriarch" as soon as all her enemies retreated.
First of all, it was necessary to meet the leaders of Zipfel and Kinzelo.
"The two major factions will contact us soon. They probably have the same thoughts as I do. Please inform me immediately."
"I understand, Lord Jin."
"And what about the knights who escaped... Is there still no news?"
The knights who resisted Rosa until the end.
In the midst of their anxiety over whether knights were alive or dead, Jet burst into the meeting room.
"My lord! The survival of the rescued knights has been confirmed...! Miss Cuicantelle is personally bringing them back!"
Jin closed his eyes, sweeping his hand over his chest.
If they had all died, there would have been very few left in the world who could be called Runcandel.
