Swordmaster’s Youngest Son

Chapter 590

C590

Jin and his companions momentarily doubted if they had heard correctly, questioning their own ears.

Until recently, the word "purification" was not something that could casually come out of the mouths of the notorious group known for various acts of terrorism and espionage.

Did Kinzelo not stay on the sidelines knowing that Gliek would be awakened?

As a result, the world had become contaminated with Chaos, and Chaos spread among living beings like an epidemic.

Jin was so astonished that he was speechless at hearing the word purification.

"...Purification?"

"Yes, purification! Our Kinzelo's goal is to make the world more beautiful."

Margiella spoke with a confident and vibrant voice, regardless of whether Jin and his companions were scandalized or remained silent.

Beside her, Ainas and Bouvard nodded as if confirming that this was indeed the case.

'I knew they were crazy, but I never expected them to go this far as a group.'

Everyone seemed serious.

Margiella even went as far as to imagine a world beautified by Kinzelo's actions, her eyes shining.

"It seems that the meaning of purification that we know and the meaning of purification that you think are a little different."

"Probably the same. Haven't you ever thought about it, Jin-nim? This world is full of pain and unnecessary contradictions."

"I often think about it. You guys are contributing quite a bit to that kind of environment."

"Right now, you might see it that way."

"For fundamental purification, isn't a certain amount of sacrifice and destruction absolutely necessary?"

"Exactly!"

"Setting aside whether it's right or wrong, I'm skeptical about how you plan to achieve such an idealistic utopia."

"The method isn't that difficult. We'll annihilate all the Gods in the world."

"It's getting more absurd by the minute."

"Once we eliminate all the Gods as planned, our leader will become the sole king of the world."

Jin's eyes narrowed.

Killing all the Gods... Perhaps it wasn't an impossible task for Kinzelo.

As Jin knew, the original creator of the Demon God Orb was Bouvard Gaston.

Although they collaborated with Zipple, but the key personnel was Bouvard.

The alliance between Kinzelo and Zipple broke down because Zipple used the Demon God Orb "without permission" and damaged it in the first place.

And the orb had the function of sealing the Gods and replicating some of their divine powers.

All the Demon God Orbs I've seen so far have been incomplete.

'If it's completed, it's highly likely to go beyond sealing the Gods and annihilate them.'

Jin shrugged.

"Do you and your leader believe that all the evils and contradictions of the world are the responsibility of the gods?"

"Not necessarily, but most of the responsibility lies with them. To describe our great cause in a more splendid and concise way, it's like a revolution against the Gods."

Jin felt a headache coming on.

Zipple and Kinzelo.

One wants to become the sole victor of the world through the power of the Gods, and the other wants to kill all the Gods and purify the world...

'They're both insane.'

A bitter laugh escaped him as he realized that such beings were in charge of a major axis of world power.

'Well, if you think about it, not even Runcandel wants to kill or use the Gods. In the end, it's not so different; they just want to defeat Zipple and become the world conqueror.'

Perhaps the goals of the major factions are more cliché than strange.

In reality, it doesn't matter who wants what.

The crucial point is whether they have the power to achieve it.

"I've heard your goals well. The reason why people, dragons, and demons gathered in Kinzelo even after hearing such an empty dream. Maybe it's not just because they're stupid..."

Jin paused.

"Hehehe, it tickles, heehee! Miss Ainas!"

"Hehehe!"

Meanwhile, watching Bouvard and Ainas laughing and talking, Jin thought that stupid people might have gathered in Kinzelo.

"...The power of Kinzelo must be extraordinary for them to believe in the idea of eliminating the Gods and purifying the world."

At the time of the terrorist attack on Sword Emperor Castle, Kinzelo's leader displayed transcendental power.

He possesses divine abilities, such as teleporting through a steel door and repairing a half-destroyed Grenille at once, in addition to brute strength.

Moreover, the leader performed all these feats in an "imperfect" state.

"What is the identity of your leader?"

A demon, a demon king, or an equivalent existence.

Jin's companions assumed this to be the leader's identity.

Currently, not only the Vamel Alliance but the entire world was curious about the identity of Kinzelo's Leader.

After Kinzelo emerged as a third faction, many people deduced the leader's identity, but he remained veiled.

In particular, the number of people tracking down the leader's identity had rapidly increased in recent times.

Suddenly, Jin felt strange about that fact.

The fact that Kinzelo had the means to subdue Gliek was not revealed to the public after the War of Sword Emperor Castle.

'But why have people suddenly started searching for the leader's identity after the war ended?'

When his thoughts reached that point, Jin's eyes widened.

'Because Zipple's manipulation of history has weakened since the War of Sword Emperor Castle...!'

The fact that Kinzelo's leader was also a person affected by the power of history was expected back in the time of the Sword Emperor Castle terrorist attack.

-That demon... looks familiar to me.

-Are you talking about the Leader of Kinzelo?

-I'm sure... I've met him...

-Who is it? Are you saying that he once fought with the brothers of the Tribe of Legends?

-That... I don't know. But... I'm sure. He looks familiar to me...

Rinpa, who was summoned at that moment, was also convinced that she had met Kinzelo's Leader, but she couldn't exactly remember who he was.

Not only Rinpa but also Murakan.

From the recorded video left by Solderet, Murakan and the leader seemed to know each other well, but he did not recognize the leader.

Margiella smiled.

"Jin-nim, you may not know it, but you actually have a deep connection with our leader. You've received help from the leader several times. There were cases where you used the leader's belongings to save your life."

"The leader's belongings?"

"The white whale Luna Runcandel, long ago. She would have given you a gift, Jin-nim."

Instantly, a chill ran down Jin's spine.

"Oh. Kid, that thing around your neck! Could it be from Orgal, the Demon Beast King? That's right! Hey, you've got a precious birthday gift. A thousand years ago, there were dozens of kings who gave their lives to get it."

"Who is Orgal, the Demon Beast King?"

"Yes, he's a great demon who was active in my era. I can recognize it at a glance. It must have been given by the owner of that powerful energy before, so it's like winning a life. Congratulations, kid."

"The pendant of the Demon Beast King, Orgal..."

"Yes, the owner of that pendant is our leader."

Demon Beast King, Orgal.

He is Kinzelo's Leader.

Orgal was the original owner of the pendant Jin wore, and he was the lover of the witch, Heluram, and the one who gave her her ruby cat, Shuri.

And in the recorded video Jin saw, he was also the person who appeared when Murakan tried to kill the madman Temar.

Contrary to the recorded video, in the present, when Murakan met him for the first time, he mentioned that it was he who prevented "mad Murakan from killing Temar."

The contradiction between what he said and the recorded video, the fact that Murakan didn't recognize him, and the fact that even Murakan and Quikantel, who knew about 'Orgal' all along, couldn't relate him to Kinzelo's Leader.

Jin intuitively knew that Orgal's history was manipulated in a very complex way.

Or, perhaps, the contradictions in Orgal's history were the result of his resistance against Zipple's manipulation.

In fact, Orgal constantly resisted the manipulation of history even before his power was weakened by Gliek.

That's why Murakan and Quikantel remember Orgal even though they don't recognize him.

"Luna-nim cut down one of the Demons to get the leader's pendant, and she gave it to you. This is what people usually call destiny. If the leader hadn't entrusted the pendant to someone else at that time, it wouldn't have reached you."

Jin didn't reply to that.

"So you probably wouldn't have received help from Luna-nim, and you would have been killed by Andrei Zipple on the remote island of Vermont, Jin-nim. We wouldn't have had any chance to meet and have this conversation."

Jin's mind was filled with complicated thoughts.

"So, could you feel a little grateful to our leader? It's fate, created by the leader."

"Let's say the Demon Beast King Orgal is a great being who can decide fate. Even if I managed to survive from Andrei on that island thanks to him, it was ultimately for your sake, not mine."

"Why do you always think in such convoluted ways?"

"If I had been absorbed by the Demon God Orb at that time, Zipple would have finished off that dog-shaped object before you."

"Well... That's true."

"No matter what others say, what saved me that day was my elder sister Luna, not Orgal. She decided my fate, so I hope you don't put his name while writing a novel. It's very distasteful..."

Margiella clapped her hands.

"Has another crime been added?"

Without a word, Jin took out the machine and the blueprints again.

Bouvard, who had been playfully interacting with Ainas all the while, suddenly focused on the objects.

"Zephyrin, do you remember what I said in Tikan last time? Discussions about object analysis must be conducted with both parties present, and all information Kinzelo has obtained must be shared with us."

Jin remained consistently demanding and irritable with Kinzelo to the end.

"Hey, Grand Duchess! Have you grasped any of your weak points? Even if we stay below, I think we stay too far below!"

"Huh, I remember."

"Go ahead. I'll give you three hours to analyze. Bouvard Gaston, only you come forward. The rest stay back and wait."

Bouvard snorted excitedly and approached Jin's group.

Amela and the disguised Qwaul set up the prepared workstation, and immediately the three began analyzing together.

Kinzelo's executive had faith in Bouvard.

They believed that no engineer, whoever they were, could surpass Bouvard's skills.

But as soon as Qwaul saw Bouvard's analysis, he coughed once, classifying Bouvard's engineering knowledge far below his own.

The cough was a signal.

Before entering the territory of the beastmen, Qwaul had pre-installed engineering traps in the objects, and Kinzelo's side had completely failed to recognize them.
