Swordmaster's Youngest Son Novel - Chapter 875
## Chapter 875
Mary and the Tona brothers aren’t the only ones facing the sudden appearance of a new great fracture.
The Schutzeron Kingdom, the Oken Desert.
Here, Tuben, Heijin, and the clan’s enforcement knights were facing two commanders who had emerged from the new great fracture and a demonic army.
“I never thought I’d see a battle this fierce after the Black Sea. Maybe the patriarch had a reason to send us back.”
“It pains my pride to ask for support.”
The new great fracture had formed shortly after Tuben and Heijin’s group had wiped out approximately half of the previous fracture’s forces. Just as they had decisively gained the upper hand by killing a commander and around twenty thousand demons, the sky turned purple and the shockwave of the great fracture spread.
“Who do you think will come? Tuben.”
“Well… Maybe the 3rd Flagbearer? I heard through communication a while ago that the 1st Flagbearer seemed a bit tired. She killed a commander in just a few minutes, so it’s to be expected.”
While Luntia had used the fraternal stars in the first mission area to eliminate the great fracture, she was naturally in a relatively less exhausted state compared to Luna.
“For some reason, I feel like someone more familiar and welcoming will come.”
As Heijin said that, two commanders from the True Demon World appeared inside the newly formed great fracture.
They stood next to the remains of the last commander, looking at the battlefield.
“What, Ragar is dead?”
“Those humans killed him? Hanalof.”
The two commanders who had just emerged from the fracture, Bargo and Kaluga Limdeon Grosch, spoke.
They were the bloodline of Flek Kaluga, whom Luna had killed, and Sakiel Grosch.
As Hanalof nodded, Limdeon shook his head in a seemingly incomprehensible manner.
“I haven’t heard anything about those two. Ah, the Cyron Runcandel knights who returned a while ago, right?”
“Regardless of their identities, they shouldn’t be underestimated if they killed Ragar. Let’s stay vigilant and face them properly.”
Meanwhile, the demonic castle summoned from the great fracture began to spread across the Oken Desert.
The Runcandel knights reorganized their formation, avoiding the rising buildings.
For this particular invasion, the True Demon World had purposely deployed several commanders and demonic forces equivalent to them in the scattered fractures inside.
While the coastal areas could be easily conquered without sending commanders, the interior was a different story.
Especially the Oken Desert, which had the highest concentration of commanders among the interior areas.
The True Demon World’s goal was to establish a foothold in the interior, starting with the Oken Desert.
They had already created the largest base in the coastal regions.
“Before we fight, I’d at least like to hear your names, human commanders. Speak, what are you called in the human world?”
Among the three commanders, the highest-ranking one, Limdeon, stepped forward. The demonic forces summoned with the castle had already surrounded the knights.
“Black Helmet.”
“Black Helmet? Well, I suppose I asked for no reason, since I’ll naturally find out once you’re captured and punished. Attack!”
As Limdeon’s order was issued, the demons charged forward, unleashing swords, magic, and projectiles.
“Runcandel, break through!”
“Understood!”
Led by Tuben and Heijin, the knights formed a breakthrough formation and let out a roar.
The total force of Runcandel consisted of two former Black Knights and five hundred enforcement knights.
The difference in numbers was exactly one hundred times greater, but they charged without a shred of hesitation. Instead, they seemed to be sweeping away the enemies as if they were slaughtering those who were cornered.
The demons also faced them without hesitation, their eyes filled with madness.
Every time Tuben and Heijin swung their swords, a dozen or more demons fell before them, and the enforcement knights relentlessly swung their swords against the demons converging from the sides and rear.
It was as if a purple river was surging.
Not just a metaphor, the flesh and blood of the slain demons were already flowing like a river.
“Indeed, they managed to kill Ragar. Once the lower ranks have exhausted their stamina a little, we’ll all attack at once.”
However, Limdeon’s plan couldn’t come to fruition.
[Booooog—!]
Once again, a white dimensional gate opened in the sky, revealing the appearance of the Mort, for the same reason as before.
Inside the Mort were four individuals.
Siris Endorma, Zed Runcandel, Vanessa Olsen.
And Hedo.
Except for Siris, the other three jumped to the ground and immediately swung their swords, causing a shockwave that briefly shook the entire battlefield.
Siris, also this time, moved to another area.
“Are you all alright?”
Zed executed his meteor shower and spoke.
The superhuman’s meteorites, acquired by traversing the Black Sea alone, continued to explode like fireworks, decimating the demons.
“Oh, it seems like more familiar people have arrived, just like Heijin said.”
“I brought a stray cat who used to cheer us up from time to time in the bleak Black Sea when we were young, friends.”
Vanessa spoke.
Stray cat.
In their youth, when Hedo roamed the Black Sea, Cyron and the Black Knights had actually seen him like that.
Fierce and annoying, but whenever they happened to spend time together, they could momentarily forget the desolation of the Black Sea.
“…Hey, Vanessa, are you really going to keep calling me ‘Stray cat’?”
“Even if you became the Chief of Staff of the Vamel Alliance, in our memories, you’ll always be the cute stray cat. So don’t expect that to change.”
“Hehe, sure.”
“Oh, who is this? Isn’t this the stray cat Hedo?”
“He’s still cute and friendly as ever.”
The faces that were serious a moment ago suddenly lit up. Tuben and Heijin burst into laughter as they looked at Hedo.
Although being called a stray cat was a bit embarrassing for Hedo, he was grateful for the opportunity to finally help his old friends in their time of need.
If he hadn’t met Cyron and the Black Knights in the Black Sea back then, Hedo would have lived his life as a beast until he died, never ascending to the world above.
He wouldn’t have met Sandra Zipple, who was more precious to him than his own life.
“Tuben, Heijin. You both look tired. From now on, you can take it easy and support us.”
“When the stray cat speaks, we have to listen.”
“Ah, come on.”
As the three suddenly appeared and immediately changed the atmosphere of the battlefield, the True Demon World commanders couldn’t help but show their displeasure.
“Still, Hanalof, you’ll be responsible for taking down the previous ones. The two of us will handle the newcomers.”
From the commanders’ perspective, it was a disconcerting situation that left them speechless, but they couldn’t underestimate their capabilities.
Zed’s meteor shower was already annihilating thousands of demons, and the demons attacking Vanessa were being eliminated by her swordsmanship without a trace.
The sword energy emanating from Hedo’s Boulder was rapidly creating a path towards the commanders.
The sword energy fell like a tidal wave, striking the commanders’ defenses.
With the five top powerhouses of the alliance together, the ordinary demonic forces that numbered in the thousands were of little consequence.
To have an impact on this battle, one would need to be at least commander level.
As the commanders were scattered among the demonic forces, Zed decided to face them all at once.
Hanalof against Tuben and Heijin, Bargo and Limdeon against Vanessa and Hedo.
A new battle composition was formed.
The commanders had no intention of retreating like Flek did. Conquering the Oken Desert was the main objective of this war.
“We’ve all fought and won countless battles, risking our lives against greater enemies in the Black Sea. So, there’s no need to feel bad just because you’re facing defeat.”
***
Back at sea, the True Demon World’s largest base.
Sakiel maintained a serene expression as she observed the entire situation through the crystal orb, despite the tumultuous events unfolding.
‘…After Shucheron, even the situation around the Oken Desert has turned out like this. I knew there would be many variables, but this is beyond my expectations.’
Jin and Murakan couldn’t see the crystal orb, but they received real-time updates on the situation through Kashimir’s communication device.
Complete victory.
The outcome of the first Great War was practically a complete victory. Most of the ‘additional great fractures’, the True Demon World’s secret weapons, had been destroyed.
Not all battlefields ended in victory. In some areas of the Empire and Hufester, the True Demon World’s transfer has been successfully completed.
It was impossible to block all the fractures that reappeared in real-time.
However, the main areas were successfully protected, and civilian casualties were minimized. They need to gradually reclaim the lands taken through war.
“Well, it seems like we’ve all understood the situation. Sakiel, if you still don’t plan to summon Paellito. I’m about to give you one last suggestion before I leave.”
“Suggestion?”
“Yes, or you could call it a final warning. The content is simple and clear. The True Demon World must withdraw all fractures immediately and return to their lands to enjoy the same life as before.”
“…It seems you’re taking too much delight in this small victory. I refuse.”
“Well, I didn’t really expect anything else; I just wanted to try. Even if you demons retreat now, I can’t leave any possibility of unrest for future generations. Who knows when they might threaten humanity again? But you know, it seems quite burdensome for you to deal with us.”
“What are you talking about suddenly?”
“It’s strange, isn’t it? From your perspective, the Vamel Alliance is your enemy, and yet, the leader and his Guardian Dragon arrived in the middle of the enemies’ strongholds. But you keep telling us to simply go back. If I were in the same situation, I would have tried to end things somehow.”
Sakiel looked at Jin with tension. Jin responded with a sly smile.
“Before we leave, let me give you a little gift for you to handle. Murakan!”
As Jin called his name, Murakan’s appearance began to change unexpectedly. His pupils burned like flames, and a pair of wings sprouted from his back.
It was Murakan’s true form that Jin had seen in Temar’s seventh tomb, his awakened state.
Sakiel clearly had her eyes open, but she felt a strange sensation as if his vision suddenly darkened.
Black Dragon’s Ultimate Technique
True Manifestation of Shadows
In Temar’s seventh tomb, Murakan didn’t just regain his own memories. He also regained the ability to use his ultimate technique, a power he had long forgotten.
Sakiel and the demons in the fortress had no choice but to shudder at the terrible darkness, just like the days when there was no artificial sun in the underground world.
