Swordmaster’s Youngest Son

r?”

“If the situation doesn’t go well, you can just calm him down.”

 

Luna ultimately didn’t beat Jin, but Gilly could only sigh at the sight of her young master’s impulses.

 

“Don’t worry, Gilly.
If I block with my body, then Father will not be so harsh.”

“Lady Luna… In that case, I shall follow you, Young Master.”

“Awww, not you too.
I’m tired.”

 

Contrary to her words, Luna thought it was nice of Gilly to volunteer.

 

‘I’m sure she’s scared, but is she declaring that if she were to die, she will die with Jin? The youngest is very lucky to have such a protective guardian.’

 

She was a little heartbroken.
After all, Luna knew the backstory of how ‘Gilly McRolan’ became ‘Nanny Gilly’.

 

‘If she hadn’t become Jin’s guardian, then she would’ve become the McRolan’s next generation’s strongest sword.
A destiny very similar to that of Jin.’

 

Murakan cleared his throat, attracting everyone’s attention.

“Eldest daughter of Runcandel.
I shall go together with Strawberry Pie.”

“The great black dragon should remain here.
Even if you go, wouldn’t you have to stay as a cat the entire time?”

“I understand…”

 

Disappointed, Murakan turned into a cat and lowered his tail.
However, no one really turned to look at him, so Murakan sauntered over to an adjacent room, where Euria and Enya were playing.

At least there, he was the center of attention.

 

“Alright, then.
Tomorrow, we’ll depart for the first transfer gate.
It hasn’t even been a month, but it feels like it’s been a long time.”

 

The day passed, and right before their departure to the Garden of Swords, Jin visited Kashimir’s office.

 

“Young Master Jin.”

“Sir Kashimir, I came for some favours.”

“Favours? No need.
You and I now share the same fate, so all of my powers and acquisitions are yours as well.”

 

Jin knew that Kashimir was the Fallen Prince of Vermont and that his daughter was Az Mil’s contractor.

Kashimir knew that Jin was a Runcandel provisional flag-bearer who was a talented magic user and got along well with dragons.

Essentially, they both had information that enabled them to hold each other by the throat.
Which is why they shared the same fate.

On top of that, Kashimir felt indebted to Jin.
Although he didn’t directly bring back Lathry, ultimately, it was Jin who saved his daughter.

 

“If I never met you, I would be watching my daughter suffer and die without knowing.
I would never be able to repay this debt even until my final days.”

 

Kashimir’s eyes were glistening.

 

‘He’s very sensitive and delicate—even more so than I expected.
I mean, in my past life, I heard that the Free City of Tikan was established during the era of Holy Kings.
A very romantic and emotional time period.’

 

While Jin looked for an answer, Kashimir hurriedly wiped his eyes with a handkerchief.

“My apologies… Haha, the mood would’ve been ruined.
Anyways, what do you want me to prepare? Tell me anything you need.”

“Please tell the Seven-Colored Peacock to research and investigate these things.”

 

He pulled out a piece of paper from his chest pocket and lent it to Kashimir.

Written on the paper was a list of the Zipfels’ wrongdoings that Jin witnessed.
The creation of living golems at the Kollon Ruins, and his experiences fighting against the Demon God’s Orb.

Including everything regarding the Cemetery Giants in the Curano Dukedom, which Murakan confessed on discovering as he explained the Orb of Origin yesterday.

Kashimir’s eyes shook after reading through the paper.

 

“Creation of living golems… If the world finds out, everyone’s respect for the Zipfel Clan would plummet.
As for the Demon God’s Orb… Since nobody knows of the Orb of Origin, I will not approach this problem.”

“Alright.
However, this is information that shouldn’t be exposed to the public.
If anything happens, the Zipfels will conceal their illicit actions even further.”

“I agree.
I will order investigations to the most trustworthy agents.
On the contrary, may I ask why you want the real name of this gangster named ‘Spiderhand Alu’ and information regarding Vishukel Yvliano?”

 

Kashimir simply asked about the purpose of the investigation in order to confirm whether Jin also thought of Kashimir as a companion.

Jin answered him without hesitation.

 

“We caused the destruction of the Tesing Clan and found out back then that Alu had ties with a Runcandel.
As for Vishukel… Recently, there were some weird things that happened at the banquet.
However, I’m not certain of anything, so it’s hard to answer.”

“I understand.
Although I can resolve the Alu and Vishukel cases very quickly, I don’t know how long the other cases will take.”

“It’s alright.
Investigating the Zipfel Clan is not an easy task.”

 

The two met eyes, and Jin extended his arm for a handshake.

 

“I look forward to our partnership, Sir Kashimir.”

“I as well, Young Master Jin.
I will prepare some high quality wine in the belief that you will return in one piece from the Garden of Swords.
There are many things I would like to discuss with you.
The Free City of Tikan will soon become a country, and you will become its closest friend.”

 

Kashimir met Jin’s hand.

Within the hour, Jin left Kashimir’s residence and prepared to board a carriage with Luna and Gilly to leave for the transfer gate.
