Chapter 572

C572

After Jin and Ron disappeared into the subspace, the outer battlefield fell into a state of defeat in an instant.

This is because Gliek has demonstrated greater strength than before being sealed in the magic seal of the Hidden Palace.

Gliek had judged that all the variables humans could expect were blocked.

In a battle that lasted the whole day, the giants were unable to inflict any damage on Gliek.

As at the beginning, they couldn’t even attempt an attack properly.

They couldn’t fundamentally harm Gliek, and its energy was strong, so they rushed to protect their allies.

It was like the sea, which eventually regained its true form no matter how much it was cut.

They couldn’t tire it out, and they couldn’t reseal the magic seal, so the war flowed somberly.

Until the return of Ron, Jin, and Dante.

The only moment Gliek stopped attacking was when Ron was cutting the remaining White Stone in its abyss.

It was only a matter of time before the giants from Zipple, Runcandel, and Hidden Palace would die in battle.

Kelliark had thought of retreating, but even that seemed unlikely due to the transformation of the Black Sea.

In such a situation, Ron gained the power of the Genesis Knight and returned to the battlefield.

Also, with Jin and Dante.

How the hell did Ron achieve mastery of the Genesis Knight in such a short time, and what happened while he disappeared with Jin?

The giants didn’t know, but one thing was clear.

Fights from now on will never be as absurd as before.

Gliek was being beaten.

The shining sword that extended like a whirlwind protected Jin and Dante like a barrier.

The Chaos energy seemed unable to approach the shield as easily as beasts faced with fire.

[“What… have you done? Ron Hairan”]

Gliek’s ominous voice still had the power to terrify humans on its own.

But the giants, no. Even others on the battlefield who hadn’t reached the realm of transcendence yet felt it.

That there was fear in its voice.

Gliek trembled every time Ron wielded his sword.

Gliek’s body was about to become comparable to the Sword Emperor Castle that was destroyed, but Ron standing in front of it seemed even larger.

“That’s what I’m going to ask. What have you been doing to my Hairan.”

Whoa!

Rashid resonated intensely.

The formless sword, the illumination symbolizing the Sword Emperor, Ron Hairan.

The sword continued to lose its pure form after the beginning of the Sword Emperor Castle battle.

As the situation became more difficult, it lost its transparent color and turned gray, and when it fell into Chaos, it was dyed black by Chaos and even stabbed its own allies.

Now, Ron’s swords, which had started sprouting from Rashid, once again lacked form.

However, the reason his fencing is invisible is not only because his fencing is as grand as before.

Just as those who did not ascend to the realm of the Genesis Knight could not recognize the light of the Genesis Knight, Ron’s new formless sword was the same.

Therefore, the current formless sword is only an invisible sword for the vast majority of humans.

For someone like Cyron Runcandel, it would seem like a sword that shines even more than that…

Gliek saw it that way too.

Gliek shrank back from the dazzling flash that seemed to blind it.

Just by looking at it, it felt as if its entire body would tear apart and disappear somewhere.

“Answer me,” Ron said as he made eye contact with Gliek.

Then, following his will, the swords of the Genesis Knight rushed into its body.

[Kwaaak…!]

Gliek writhed in pain and let out a scream.

The formless sword was dissolving the Chaos forming it into particles.

A calm storm.

Those who knew Ron’s intangible sword couldn’t help but think of such a strange expression.

Such a vast power as the sea is shattering Gliek, but they can’t see it at all.

Even the giants couldn’t accurately recognize how the energy of the formless sword flowed.

“I don’t think you have anything to say. If that’s the case, I’ll recite it for you.”

Squeak!

Ron swung his sword and cut five or six of Gliek’s arms, which it extended reflexively.

“White Stone, Gliek. You destroyed Hairan’s territory, made the land uninhabitable again, and tried to kill the next Hairan patriarch. As the lord of the Sword Emperor Castle, I will hold you accountable for the crime and execute the sentence.”

The punishment is extinction.

As Ron finished his words, his eyes shone intensely.

And there were laughs mixed with Gliek’s screams. Screams that shook the heavens and the earth, and mockery like a somber wind sounded simultaneously.

[Kekekkeakka…! That’s amazing. It’s clear that you’re more special than any human I’ve ever known. I commend you for that.]

Gliek’s size rapidly decreased as it began to speak.

Ron felt nothing special about Gliek’s relaxed appearance.

[However, even if you have the power to defy fate… it doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll succeed.]

Swish…

Gliek’s body began to dissipate.

As its unnecessarily huge form disappeared, the Chaos lost by the formless sword reduced.

Now it turned into a black wind and dispersed across the battlefield.

The giants were still unable to penetrate the Chaos and enter where Ron stood.

Even though Ron was delivering an essential blow to Gliek, it was still filled with Chaos that they couldn’t withstand.

Nevertheless, the giants were slowly regaining their composure.

‘Anyway, it would be safer for Ron Hairan to take care of protecting Jin Runcandel than myself, but… Actually, the question is whether he will defend Jin to the end.’

‘Forcibly securing the younger one is quite dangerous. It seems that the Chaos King has other means, so we should prepare for it. If Ron Hairan gives up on the younger one, it’s a factor that can’t be changed without worry.’ Thought Kelliark and Rosa.

They were concerned about Gliek’s outbursts and that Ron might abandon Jin.

Of the latter, it seems there is no need to worry, but for them, it was no different to think that way.

Although they hadn’t reached the mastery of the Genesis Knight, they knew well how those who reached the Genesis Knight lost their humanity.

Those who reached the Genesis Knight were in danger of becoming monsters for the rest of their lives.

In particular, Rosa had firsthand seen what state Cyron was in just after reaching the Genesis Knight.

The Cyron of then was no different from a killer.

It was only after a long time that Cyron remained as stable and unfeeling as he is now.

There was no law against Ron either.

In fact, like Rosa and Kelliark’s concerns, Ron was still in the midst of an inner struggle with his mind trying to devour him.

[Especially if you still have strong mortal feelings like now…]

Gliek’s voice echoed in the black Chaos wind.

While it’s true that he made a mistake in his own calculations, and as a result, Ron Hairan stood by his side and climbed to the realm of the Genesis Knight.

Gliek still clung to the possibility that Ron could be of its kind.

With the premonition that even Ron’s ascent to the realm of the Genesis Knights might be just a precursor.

Moreover, even if Ron could eventually maintain human emotions, Gliek was convinced that his combat power was superior to Ron’s…

And he was also aware of the fact that Ron’s Genesis Knight attribute was specialized in “protection.”

Gliek’s scattered Chaos began to form a vortex in the middle of the battlefield.

At the same time, the Chaos energy that had colored the ground gushed out.

It seemed as if a black tidal wave was surging from all directions.

All humans on the battlefield, except Ron, were silent for a moment.

It had already been quite tough until now.

But now, the energy Gliek had started to reveal far surpassed the power humans had experienced.

Gliek’s Chaos was in full bloom.

That meant the black sea had completely become the necessary amount for him to fight with his natural strength.

Until now, he had been unable to use his power because he absorbed Jin and prevented them from entering the abyss.

The Origin Orb is an object made by combining the energy of all the gods, and even the Legend Tribe in its heyday faced the result of destruction when opposing its power.

And it was the kings of the Black Sea who divided that power into five parts.

What has been revealed so far cannot be everything.

Since the beginning of the war, time has never been on the side of humans.

Even up to this moment.

“Ha!”

The approaching giants stopped charging and caught their breath.

The Chaos poison rising from the ground was holding them back.

All humans except the giants couldn’t even breathe properly.

Even the Black Knights and the Specters were vomiting blood because of the Chaos penetrating their bodies, and the lesser knights and magicians quickly lost consciousness.

Talaris’ condition was not good either.

As Elona had not been unsealed, she had no strength to defend herself.

Still, the reason Talaris didn’t fall immediately was that Rosa quickly made a judgment and returned to her side.

“Hidden Palace Master, stick close to me.”

Rosa remembered how Talaris had tried to tell Kelliark that she had one last move before Jin disappeared.

As Rosa and Kelliark predicted, Jin and Dante were unaffected by the Chaos poison rising from the ground.

Ron’s power protected them.

It also meant that Ron would have to keep protecting them and fight against Gliek.

And Jin realized that something was happening to Dante, who was behind him, as soon as Gliek’s outburst began.

‘Dante’s body… It’s being engulfed by Chaos again…!’

He could see how Dante’s hand, which surrounded his own neck, was slowly turning black.

Ron was also aware of this fact and was furious, but he didn’t express it enough for Jin to notice.

However, Gliek was attentive.

The fact that Ron was angry.

That anger would soon turn into hatred and seduce Ron again.

[Ron Hairan, if you want to defeat me, you must have nothing to protect….]
