Chapter 55: The Outside World (1)
Jin was having a dream
A jet-black tentacle o no matter what
Mmmh! Mmmhmmm!
He couldn’t breathe He could only let out sroans as he suffocated
As he frantically opened his eyes, Jin finally realized the source of his nightmare
Meow~
Meow, meow~ Meoo!
A small black cat was asleep on Jin’s face Indeed, it was Murakan He had been lying on Jin’s face for over thirty ot up and stretched his arhtened his roorant aroma of tea near him; it was the scent of the black tea Gilly often brewed for hihtmare because of Murakan… But now that I’ht after the duel with Vishukel?’
His entire body felt light like a feather The wound on his chest and the grazes throughout his entire body had completely vanished The Runcandel medic had probably healed Jin while he was unconscious
“You’ve awakened, Young Master”
Gilly sensed his awakening and approached the bedside with a cup of tea and so was I out for, Gilly?”
“For two days”
“What? Two days?”
Jin was surprised but quickly nodded in acknowledge the final exchange, he had reached a new realm for a short instant, which used up all histhose circumstances, he had woken up pretty early
“The banquet must have ended already It seems I was unable to send everyone off and bid them farewell”
“There is no need to worry so ainst Lord Vishukel was the hot topic of the banquet that everyone gossipped about I think everyone was understanding of your situation Moreover, you’ve shown the”
Gilly was right Although there was a complete mismatch between an 8-star and a 5-star, the duel was all that the guests were talking about until the end of the banquet
It was because of the ‘Mind’s Blade’ Jin had displayed at the very end Although it couldn’t be called a perfect Mind’s Blade, the fact that a turnabout alht was more than extraordinary
Vishukel wasn’t the only one to have noticed Jin’s feat In fact, ht in question appeared to have been so shocked that he never returned to the arena afterwards until the end of the banquet
‘The daily training I’ve done with Elder Sister Luna is finally paying off I couldn’t understand anything in the beginning… To think that it would come in handy like this’
Jin recalled Luna continuously saying ‘use the eye of the ious chant and chuckled to himself
He first realized what kind of sensation the Mind’s Blade produced during his training with the Clear Stones Afterwards, he tried to recreate that feeling again, but to no avail, which frustrated Jin
‘Seems like for now, that sensation will only erous situations or in subconscious mo about it It was already ied to i, the Mind’s Blade was a real froot off the bed
‘In any case, that was a very fruitful banquet I gained sowithin the Zipfel Clan, started a good… friendshi+p? Bond? So like that with the Hidden Palace’s successor At the very least, she behaved soot the chance to beat up Bouvard Gaston half-dead and also learned that Bouvard has a close relationshi+p with Vishukel This was the greatest outcohly likely that the Yvliano Clan or Vishukel alone are backing the transformation crianization outside of his clan, and Bouvard Gaston is affiliated with theht of eate them and unravel the truth hi them take responsibility Responsibility for the assassination atteo perforate them and uises
After Jin’s thoughts came to an end, Gilly pointed at a certain vase on the bedside There were pure-white flowers reselowing faintly
[TL/N: Check out Baby’s Breath on Google if you don’t knohat type of flowers they are]
“The Hidden Palace’s successor left these flowers for you She waited for you to wake up until thisbut left afterwards as she had to return”
“Hm? Lady Syris left these behind?”
“Yes Maybe you hold a special place in her heart~?”
“No The Hidden Palace’s snow blossoe of flowers Seeain in another duel She’s quite the persistent and tenacious woed at Jin’s response
“Whatever it signifies, this is still your first ti Master”
“Kuahaha! Your first flowers are a letter of challenge That’s hilarious! This is monumental, don’t you think so, Strawberry Pie?”
Murakan laughed out loud excessively and glanced at Gilly
He was being cautious around her due to the incident where he sneaked into the banquet hall without her authorization Indeed, Gilly was acting like Murakan didn’t exist for the second day straight
Having grasped the situation at hand, Jin just lightly shook his head A despondent Murakan transfor of which, the patriarch has ordered you to go find hi Master Just as you mentioned before… I think the time for you to prove your qualifications has arrived”
The trial to prove his qualifications to beco this, Jin felt somewhat conflicted now that his father’s directive had arrived
Jin couldn’t even have dreaht before hirasp
“I see It see the clan for a while Where is Father?”
“At the ht I’s received the same summons from their father, they all wore neat cere to see him
However, Jin lazily tidied his disheveled hair and wore soood-quality leather travel clothes He also wore Brada the corridor
The mausoleum
The Garden of Swords’ courtyard—where countless swords were iraveyard However, the clansmen who achieved extraordinary accohts were allowed to be buried in the mausoleum as heroes of the clan
Inside the round, there was not a single spot of light The darkness smelled of metal, and a low voice resounded
“You’re here”
Jin could barely see Cyron’s silhouette from behind He respectfully lowered his head
“It’s been a long time since a child of mine answered my summons in such comfortable clothes I assu tiht?”
“Yes, I plan on departing immediately”
Cyron quite liked this aspect of his youngest son The boy didn’t feel intimidated by him and simply announced his intentions clearly
His other children couldn’t even have i as such before their father They already had a hard ti in his presence… Actually, it wasn’t the case for all his other children Luna was also different She had quickly left Cyron’s grasp and lived her own life
Jin are of his father’s personality, which hy he purposefully caression, I find my father to be the easiest person to read’
It was an inexplicable thought In his past life, not only was Jin terrified of Cyron, but he also had barely interacted with his father during his 28 years of life
The father and son duo didn’t speak for a while Nevertheless, it wasn’t an aard silence
