Chapter 517
Episode 142. Negotiations (3)
* * *
Tikan was still under construction. All of the huge equipment in Heukwangsanchae was being renovated and newly installed, so it was inevitable that it would take time.
However, even though the construction has not yet been completed, Tikan has more than 80% of the defense power of the old Black King Sanchae.
It was 80% purely considering the defense power of the equipment brought from Heukwangsanchae. Considering the power of Jin’s colleagues who were previously residing and those who were newly allied (though they think they were subordinates), Tikan was no different from the strongest single-scale city of all time, excluding the two major powers.
Among existing middle and small countries, there was no place that could surpass Tikan. From the moment the Ghost Corps and the Dark Kingdom joined, Tikan became a land that could be called the 5th power.
“Ugh, the national proclamation is right around the corner… … .”
Maybe that’s why the man who is misunderstood as the owner of Tikan, the head of the Seven Birds, and a thorough mystic, the demon Casimir Alfrion, has been crying a lot lately.
A feeling of indescribable emotion, an exceptionally delicate sensitivity as he entered his 40s, the conviction that his long aspirations will soon come to an end and a new beginning, and his gratitude towards his colleagues. It was the reason Casimir shed tears of happiness.
“Oh, my Lord Casimir is crying again.”
“Yuria, bring me your father’s handkerchief. There is also Confucius Qin, what kind of insolence is that?”
“Why are you crying, Mr. Casimir?”
Jet, Alyssa and Amela said.
Indeed, after a long time, all the colleagues were gathering to eat. (Thanks to Murakan’s persistence) The strawberry pie we went for a walk together, no. Except for Gilly, everyone was seated at the table.
“It’s still not enough to make a national proclamation.”
said Jin.
He, too, was not without a heart full of emotion. However, after he returned from this mission, naturally, impatience once again entered Jin’s mind.
“That’s right, as your lord said, it’s still not enough. It is unlikely that Ziffle and Kingelo will touch this place any time soon, but they will try to press whenever they get the chance.”
When Rata spoke, Valkas nodded as well.
“The speed of installing fortress defense equipment is slower than expected, my lord.”
“I heard that it was because the equipment was specialized for the mountain range where the Black King Sanctuary was located, Sir Balkas.”
“Right. Compatibility with Tikan isn’t too bad, but it’s not perfect. And as I’ve felt since I was in Heukwangsanchae, our equipment has a lot of room for improvement. In fact, thanks to Amela, a lot of improvements have already been made.”
Amela.
As shown in the Gaifa Islands, she is a master of war using the power of chaos.
In the Gaifa Islands, she fused with Boubar’s chaos and showed stronger power than usual, but even so, she was the world’s best operator of war equipment.
If Valkas is not a mere force, but a ‘war’, then she alone is considered better than the entire Dark Kingdom.
“That’s why it’s generating 80% power even though all the equipment hasn’t been installed yet. But as I watched Amela reinforce her equipment, I got it. She can still get better. It means that she can exert more than twice the power of the old black kingdom.”
“Is that possible?”
“It’s possible, lord!”
said Amela, waving her hand out of her bush robe.
Jin felt that she was a bit awkward. She fought to the death in the Gaipa Archipelago, and after Jonah’s inspection, Amela passed out, so she went to Sota Desert without speaking a word.
On the other hand, Amela followed Balkas and Rata and behaved very friendly, calling Jin the lord. It was because her chaos had yielded to Jonah, and she had, by nature, the ego of a rather sociable child. Her slight fear of Jin and Murakan seemed to have disappeared.
“Most of Balkas’s equipment is a product of modern magical engineering. Then, some of them are relics, what people call masterpieces. Like the lord’s helmet. I don’t think Mr. Balkas didn’t know much about being a fool. Our cuties.”
Before meeting Jin, Amela had wandered the world with chaos as a mercenary and explorer all her life. Thanks to her, there were not many people in the world who were more knowledgeable about her relics and artifacts than she was.
“Heh heh, to hear old man’s voices from his peers.”
“Damn it, don’t call me cutie… … !”
Amela’s appearance hidden by the bushes looked younger than Enya, let alone his age, and Valkas felt somehow hurt. It was Lata and Fay who reacted violently to the ‘cutie’.
“Masterpiece?”
“A demon or an old zip. It must have been made by such children. Representatively, this is what Mr. Balkas calls Black King Cannon No. 1, but when I think about it, it should be called a magic suction jet type all-weather accelerator crushing cannon. Daddy Balkas didn’t know that, so he must have been using them as regular prisoners.”
“Magic absorption… … what? Hemi, our Amela-nim, you know how to write such difficult words. Did you understand me?”
“Magic suction injection type all-weather accelerating blasting cannon… … ?”
Jin, who has always lived with academy critics, was used to such long official names.
“Oh, it will be fine.”
“If you find all the perfect functions, it will become the strongest gun in existence. hmm… … Comparison subject, where guaranteed, Cojek! It seems to be more powerful than Ko-Jek’s magic-injection type all-weather crusher.”
Even comparing the subtly different names, it seemed that the former would be stronger. However, I don’t know if Amela’s words are true.
“If that’s true, how did that thing end up in the Black King’s Sanctuary? In the days when the Dark Kingdom existed independently, there were often exchanges with Ziffle and the engineers of the imperial family for equipment maintenance. They are magical… … There’s no way I would have left him alone after seeing what Po was saying.”
“As expected, cute questions are cute. They must have sent the best manpower to the Dark Kingdom, right? I guess I didn’t know because I sent only the stupid kids every time? It’s a problem that can be figured out with just a little bit of brain.”
“That’s real.”
“Ugh, the cutie is an Amela fan!”
“Ohhh, I don’t know what it is, but it’s an amazing cannon, right? Can Amela-sama recover?”
Amela shook her head at Enya’s question. Because she was held by Ratha, her neck barely turned, and it seemed that only the bushes were swaying.
“Ah, uh, that, ah, I, can’t do it. Alas, bones, bones, that’s right! Wait a minute! Ability, lack of line. And there might be people in the world who can restore it.”
“My lord, whether Amela’s words are true or not. It sounds like you need to recruit a decent magic engineer. Even if it’s not the Black King Cannon No. 1, there’s a lot of equipment to improve, and above all. We don’t even have to find clues about the mechanism we got in Sota Desert.”
Something that could change the game of war to come.
The Prophet described the machine Jin had acquired to Rosa that way.
‘Even the mother did not hear the exact purpose of the object from the Prophet. If you’ve heard of it, you’ve probably told me too, because it’s sure to benefit the family.’
Of course, the words of the prophet could have been false. He, too, may not know what the machine is for.
However, he must not have been with the blueprints for nothing, so he had to find out why.
To do so, Hester’s record magic and the help of a genius magic engineer were needed.
“Z.”
“Yes sir!”
“If you get in touch with Arya, let me know immediately.”
I haven’t met Valeria since leaving Wantaramo Forest last year to spend time with Jonah.
She has the corpse of Bement Mine she got from Wantaramo Forest as evidence to pressure the imperial family in the future.
He was also analyzing Captain Kingelo’s iron that Jin had obtained from the Geomwangseong and the recording device Jin had given him, and was tracking down to Temar’s grave while restoring Heister’s magic.
The reason why there is no contact yet is because there is no result, or because it is exposed to some danger. It must be one of the two.
‘If it’s not that, then it’s like entering the next battleground.’

Jin felt a bit uneasy because he couldn’t reach Misha along with Valeria.
“Of course. Ugh, no news is good news, so don’t worry too much. I haven’t been in contact with her quite a bit, but is there anything special about that young lady?”
“That would be nice. Hey Murakan. Misha… … .”
“Nari, Murakan-nim went out for a walk with Gilly… … Oh, there you are! huh? But what a giant toad… … Are you riding Lord Talaris’ Blind Mott?”
The secret palace 7 swords, Ryu and Hiten, who were sitting at the table, stood up and bowed.
“Meet the Princess!”
“Meet the Princess!”
Not only Murakan and Gilly, but also their masters were on board.
Next to it, for some reason, Kuzan, Veris, and Yulian were standing there as if they were some kind of attendant, with blank faces.
“Ughh, son-in-law. long time no see!”
“Are you here, Mistress Thalaris, Mistress Siris?”
“How come our son-in-law never calls this mother-in-law when there is a meeting like this?”
“Did you not get an invitation from Lucas Manfran?”
“Ah, it seems we are confused. I almost felt sad again. What is it? ha ha ha… … under! I’m astounded. On the way, I heard from this handsome black dragon oppa that something strange had attached itself to our son-in-law.”
It was about Sandra Zipple.
At those words, Siris sighed as if she had no strength to argue with her mother anymore.
“Your son-in-law doesn’t have a heart, does he? To the daughter of an enemy family?”
“Mother, although she is Jiple, she is a person who has been of great help to Jin.”
“Ugh, he’s acting hard again. Can’t you even joke?”
“It wouldn’t have been a light will.”
Siris, of course, absolutely! I wasn’t conscious of Sandra Zipple.
However, even as a friend, it seems that he will not be able to help Jin even by betraying Bigung, but Sandra feels strange that he did.
‘If it were me in the past, I would have only snorted at how stupid and foolish I was. After meeting Jin, I seem to have changed a bit.’
Thalaris shrugged.
“Hey, I’m grateful too. That’s why, in front of people, he insults his mother like this. This mother is still the hostess.”
“I’m sorry about that, mother.”
“Ughhh, that was just a joke. Creepy!”
“Oh really.”
“Anyway, my daughter has a taste for teasing. Anyway, nice to meet you all. It’s a bit strange to see all three mercenaries gather together and eat hahahoho. As expected, the charm of the man I picked as my son-in-law… … So, what was everyone talking about?”
“Magic suction injection type all-weather acceleration… … .”
The moment Jin answered that far.
All of a sudden, an alarm sounded throughout Tikan. The equipment installed by the Dark Kingdom is causing an alarm.
Why ae ae ae ae-!
It was an alarm that started due to an unidentified object found in the sky out of nowhere. And the main character who raised the alarm is the person who escorted Jin and his party in the Sota Desert the other day.
It was Zephyrin.
