There is not a single member of the clan who is in a position to ‘inform’ Chiron and Rosa.
Rosa did not take offense at Jin, who said that he would leave again as soon as he arrived.
On the contrary, she could feel some anticipation in his confident attitude.
She even saw the appearance of Luna.
Luna also unilaterally notified the clan that she would give up her position as next patriarch.
However, Luna notified about give up being patriarch, and Jin did the opposite. From Rosa's point of view, everything Jin did was solely to devour the clan.
“Now that you have just returned, you are telling something interesting as soon as you see this mother. You probably don't know how messed up the clan is right now. It seems that your self-awareness as the highest-ranking flagbearer in the clan is a bit lacking.”
Contrary to what she said, it wasn't a rebuke. Jin responded with a light smile.
“In the meantime, I received intensive healing in the Holy Kingdom, and found out the use and maker of the items obtained from the Sota Desert.”
“What you found?”
“As the Prophet said, it was an item that could change the game of war. The machine is a key part of the teleportation device.”
Jin deliberately said it was a teleportation device, not a spatial-time device. The two seemingly have similar concepts but distinctly different, and there was no need to share them all with Rosa.
"It's information you obtained through Arya Hister."
Jin was not taken aback by Rosa's confident voice. Valeria's presence with him was now an open secret among the great forces.
"That's right."
It was the flagbearers' regular duty to capture Valeria and bring her back to the Garden of Swords.
Rosa didn't criticize him otherwise.
By bringing Joshua down, Rosa has already allowed Jin a certain level of freedom. Jin was not crossing the line she had set.
“The maker of that thing is Lokia Ganesto, one of the ten great knight of old Runcandel.”
“…… Lokia Ganesto?”
"Yes. Lokia Ganesto was forgotten due to Zipfel’s manipulation of history thousand years ago. But just as the clan curse has been lifted as the power of Zipfel has weakened this time, the history of the old Runcandel, which was destroyed by them, is being revealed little by little.”
Ganesto.
Rosa had been aware of the name even before the power of the stories faded.
“According to what you said, teleportation devices and ship construction are already a thousand years old technology, and our clan lost them to Zipfel at some point.”
“Are there no records related to that in our clan?”
"None. Even if there is, merely a record of when an object was lost is meaningless, and if there were records of how to use an object immediately, you would have to attribute it to the clan right now.”
What was important to Rosa was the immediate victory and survival, not the discovery of lost history.
Jin believed that he would never be victorious unless he regained the dignity of Runcandel, but Rosa did not.
“The item is still unusable.”
“So, how much more time do you need?”
“I don't know. The reason I leave human world is to complete things with the help of my siblings.”
The reason Jin wanted to leave for Laprarosa was not just for personal training.
A flying ship that uses an illuminating heart as its power source. Seeing Zipfel’s mass-produced fleet for the first time in the Sota Desert, Jin dreamed of something like that.
‘If only teacher and Qwaul could complete the spatial-time device and use it to summon the siblings in human world. It won't end with just an absurd story.'
Theoretically, it was possible, as Qwaul had already assured by looking at the illuminating heart in Jin's chest.
“Even if it takes time, can it be completed with the help of the Plutonian tribe?”
“I cannot be sure.”
“Not yet, I don’t know, I can’t guarantee. You keep saying things that don't suit you. I am not giving you autonomy.”
“It won't be different from the Acting patriarch suspending judgment on whether or not it would be better to negotiate with the Prophet rather than me. And I think the acting patriarch must have already resisted the temptation of the Prophet once in the Sword Emperor castle war.”
-Please reinstate the 2nd flagbearer. If you do, the Prophet will give you strength.
-Yes, you are not bitches if you don't disappoint me. Get lost! When I return to clan, if even one of the 12th flagbearer’s comrades is dead, you will be executed immediately.
Jin did not hear the conversation between Rosa, Myu and Anne during the war, but he was sure that the Prophet had suggested something to Rosa. That Rosa turned it down.
‘If my mother had made a deal with the Prophet at that time, things would have changed before Lord Ron become genesis knight. Joshua would have been reinstated now.'
Joshua is still imprisoned in the dungeon.
And the reason Rosa cut Myu and Anne's proposal with a single stroke at that desperate moment was because she knew that the Prophet would eventually have no choice but to 'coexist' with Runcandel.
She calculated that if Runcandel was really going to be destroyed by Glyek, Prophet would have lent her strength even if she refused. The prophet had no other option for the fulfillment of the prophecy.
“I haven't disappointed acting patriarch so many times. So trust me.”
“The youngest."
"Yes."
“Are you so afraid of me negotiating with the Prophet? To the point where you have to beg me.”
Only then did Rosa realize what Jin wanted to tell her.
“It might look like begging. Then, this time, I will ask the acting patriarch. To the acting patriarch...…”
How much time do you have left?
Jin continued with a heavy voice. What he was concerned about was Rosa's 'demonization'.
There is no way to confirm how quickly the chaos that colored Rosa is consuming her, as her true self.
‘My mother was definitely exposed to the greatest level of chaos.’
When Ron sacrificed his life to prevent Glyek's self-destruction, understandably, it was Rosa and Kelliark who bore the most in the aftermath.
Kelliark was able to protect himself to some extent by using Demon’s god’s orb as a shield, but all that was left for Rosa was a sword and the clan members waiting for death behind her back.
It was thanks to her sheer brute force that she seemed to be behaving quite well despite being exposed to more chaos than Kelliark.
Demonization.
Jin experienced greater chaos than anything else in the subspace of Glyek. So he know it to well how that power make people fall and drive them crazy.
Even Ron would have become a monster without being able to overcome demonization without Jin and Dante. Jin predicted that Rosa would also go through the same process as herself as Ron at that time.
No, Jin was sure. In Jin's eyes, it was clear that Rosa was resisting demonization to maintain her composure every moment.
“You seem to be looking down at me a little.”
Rosa did not show her anger this time either.
It was because she wasn't sure if the size of anger that soared right now was entirely her own. If there was even the slightest influence of demonization mixed in, she had to suppress it by all means.
“Just like I did, please be honest with me, Acting patriarch. If it's a very urgent level, I can't trust the acting patriarch and leave.”
They looked into each other's eyes.
Both looked at the enemy. They both have same goal of survival and prosperity of Runcandel, but the path they are walking is so different. To the extent that they can't help but become enemies even while running toward the same place.
“If my answer is negative, does that mean you will change your plans?”
“It is unchanging that I visit Laprarosa's siblings. It's the only way to complete things. However, if the remaining time for the acting patriarch is shorter than I expected, I will cut off the prophet's limbs before leaving.”
“The Prophet’s limbs?”
“Eighth and ninth flagbearer. After Joshua's demise, I'm pretty sure those two have become the Prophet's new messengers. If I kill them, the Prophet will need some time to recover. Then, naturally, the opportunity for the Prophet to get closer to the acting patriarch will be reduced. Even while I'm gone."
Jin said his words as if he was confident.
The fact that Myu and Anne became messengers of the Prophet is only because of their sincerity. Besides, killing them might really hurt the Prophet to have to recover, and Jin didn't really intend to kill them.
Even if it is clearly revealed that Myu and Anne are the Prophet's limbs, there will be a lot of information to be found out through them.
“Yes, as you said, even if Myu and Anne became the limbs of the Prophet. Would I have watched it in silence?”
“I will take care of the two even if the acting patriarch and the entire clan are against it.”
In other words, Jin was threatening Rosa with only his heart.
The reason for this was that Rosa and Runcandel were not in a situation where they could crush the Jin and Vamel alliance with a single word like before the war.
“And I don't know about the clan, but the Prophet probably won't have the power to stop me right now. If she had that kind of power, she would have already taken over the clan when Joshua was around. It's true that the Prophet uses special abilities with chaos, but she's definitely in trouble.”
Just like Kinzelo's leader, Orgal, the Demon Beast King.
Jin swallowed the words and smiled.
“Also, I will announce the existence of the Prophet to the world in the cause of killing them. Now that everyone in the world hates chaos because of Glyek. The fact that our clan has been colluding with beings dealing with chaos since before, if that is also revealed through my own mouth.”
"Stop."
Jin stopped talking.
“Even if you're gone, you're saying that the moment I negotiate with the Prophet, I am pouring water into the gutter. After all, there are your people in the human world outside of Laprarosa.”
"Yes."
Rosa, who had been glaring at Jin ever since the word that he would kill Myu and Anne came out, eventually burst into laughter at that point.
“Now you’re talking like you.”
“I will take it as a compliment.”
“Your notice was well received. I'll do my calculations more carefully, so put down your worries about me. But don't forget that threats are only worthwhile until they're executed."
"Of course."
"3 years."
Rosa looked at her blackened wrist and said.
“Assuming my demonic transformation proceeds at the same rate as now, I should be able to hold out for about three years. Come back in that time.”
There is not a single member of the clan who is in a position to ‘inform’ Chiron and Rosa.
Rosa did not take offense at Jin, who said that he would leave again as soon as he arrived.
On the contrary, she could feel some anticipation in his confident attitude.
She even saw the appearance of Luna.
