Swordmaster's Youngest Son

Chapter 602

C602

He looked like a startled cat jumping up like a drawn bowstring.

Though the Chaos body was too big to be compared to a cat.

Kwoong-!

When the Chaos fell onto its back, an earthquake shook the entire training ground.

Jin took a step back with just the slight tremor that occurred.

"He certainly reacts sensitively to Shadow Energy."

Yona, Amela, Gliek, etc.

Almost all the Chaos Jin had experienced either greatly feared or harbored deep resentment toward Solderet's power.

The creature had opened its eyes as if they were about to pop out at any moment, and it breathed ceaselessly.

One couldn't see it, but it seemed like the chaos was even breaking out in a cold sweat.

"Oh, this time, it looks like Brother Jin is making a move from the beginning..."

"Brother! Well done, keep it up, give him a real beating!"

The Legends who had come to watch the match (with refreshments and alcohol prepared among the audience) clenched their fists and cheered. Also this time, Vahn kept a distance of five steps.

"Kuh......."

However, it wasn't easy for Jin to close the distance with Chaos again.

Contrary to how the chaos had been distracted or looked at Vahn until now, the chaos now exuded clear hostility toward Jin.

Jin's legs didn't move, as if he had faced Tess's strong pressure.

He was either terrified or had lost the will to fight. It wasn't a mental issue.

The reason Jin's legs stiffened was purely the real pressure created by the chaos's fighting spirit.

"How dare you."

The Chaos immediately seized the fighting spirit as Vahn spoke in a low voice.

Instead, it complained of unfairness with a tremendously gloomy voice unique to "chaos of different ranks."

[Squirm... Nng.]

The voice of the different rank chaos had a certain penetrating power that penetrated into the depths of humans.

It wasn't just because they were strong beings like the Demon God Orb and Gliek that broke human will to fight with just screams.

The same happened with the first chaos that slipped away from Jin. Even Jin felt pity for the whining sound in broad daylight.

'Insane, am I feeling sorry? What am I thinking?'

Especially Jin couldn't help but react more sensitively to the creature's voice.

What constituted the creature wasn't just chaos; it had naturally intertwined with Jin's inner self upon acquiring its energy.

In other words, there was a kind of inner connection between Jin and the creature, which made them feel each other's emotions more intensely.

That's why when Jin approached the creature to strike again, he had to constantly control his emotions.

One should never pity the creature; it was only a threatening existence to be eradicated.

[¡Kiiing, Kiiing!]

"What do you mean?"

[¡Kiii!]

"Noisy. Shut up and take Brother Jin's sword."

On the other hand, the chaos considered this situation absurd.

The human tried to eliminate it, but with Vahn confidently watching his back, the situation seemed reversed.

All the more so because even though the chaos appealed to Vahn, all it got in return was cold, haughty treatment.

Indeed, the Chaos intended to release Jin as long as he didn't try to harm it.

Initially, it should have become "one" by devouring Jin, but now that they were separated, it thought each could live their own life.

The Chaos didn't even perceive that it had taken over Jin's power. It felt that it was originally its possession.

The chaos began to distance itself from Jin, and he found himself in the dilemma of chasing the fleeing creature.

And the fleeing chaos agonized over why Jin had "Shadow Energy."

Jin thought about how to get rid of that superficial, unpleasant fellow.

'I'm sure the Shadow Sword is a threat to him, but my body doesn't respond well enough to open the Shadow Sword.'

Whoosh!

Jin gritted his teeth.

He couldn't properly strengthen his body just with Shadow Energy.

Jin released the Shadow Energy Armor (the Myulta Rune couldn't be used due to lack of mana), but it was impossible to open Bradamante.

'Should I learn to strengthen my body with Shadow Energy? I also don't know how long it might take. If I'm not careful, my aura release might go wrong when I recover my aura after mostly using Shadow Energy.'

Jin never thought there would come a time when he would miss the aura filling every vein so much.

It was strange to imagine filling the empty dantian and operating organs with Shadow Energy instead.

"Mmm."

"At first, it seemed like Brother Jin had just hit him, but there's no difference. Can this be called a fight?"

"I feel really sorry for Brother Jin. Our powerful brother has become so weak..."

"Eh, don't say such negative things. If you keep saying that, Brother Jin might never become strong again."

However, as time passed, Jin and Vahn began to understand this battle at a completely different level than the others on the training ground.

'It's as the Sister Goddess of Battle said. I'm still far from closing the gap with her, but I'm beginning to feel little by little the strength sister Vahn spoke of.'

Like a hidden light in thick fog, Jin's energy, which Chaos had taken, softly shone throughout Chaos's body.

It was only visible in Jin's eyes, and it seemed that if he clung to it, he would crash against Chaos like a wave.

'Damn it, it's risky to let the Sister Goddess of Battle break that damn shield for me. Just hitting the shield could cause problems with the strength she has. Sister Vahn must be quiet because that worries her.'

That's what Jin thought.

However, it's not just that, Vahn also felt a strange sensation as he kept five steps away from Jin.

Is there some kind of resonance between Brother Jin and me...?

The Light Heart of the Tribe of Legends and the power it contains can be amplified in response to Vahn's power.

That was why the Battle Kings' Light Hearts shone especially when Jin first visited the Gods of Battle' hall in Lafrarosa.

The Legend called the phenomenon "Resonance of the Gods of Battle."

Jin also has a Light Heart, so he can resonate in the same way, but not now.

'Right now, Brother Jin's Light Heart won't have the slightest energy left for resonance... why?'

Suddenly, as if something occurred to him, Vahn grabbed Jin by the shoulders.

"Sister Goddess of Battle?"

"Brother Jin, don't you feel it?"

"What...... huh?"

Jin stopped walking.

Thanks to Vahn strengthening him with the Resonance of the God of Battle, Jin could now feel the same sensation as her.

It seems that the power of the Goddess of Battle's is connecting with me...".

It was also an unfamiliar sensation for Jin. However, it wasn't the first time.

Island 32 of the Blue Bird Archipelago.

-(My brother, Peitel, whom I want to kill)

-(Did you dare to think you could descend into my grave...?)

Something similar happened on the Archipelago, where Joshua's clone was first killed.

That day, the memory of the Thunder God 'Gram' that remained in Sigmund resonated with the sword and strengthened his lightning energy.

A similar sensation enveloped Jin.

"It seems I can help you after all, Brother Jin."

Gooo...!

The sky spread out of nowhere, as if engulfed in a tidal wave.

The entire training ground was filled with blue lightning energy. It was a phenomenon that occurred when Vahn spread her energy.

[¿¡Kek, kek!?]

The Chaos misunderstood that Vahn had changed her mind and thought he was trying to harm himself, whether Jin was harmed or not, but that wasn't the case.

If that were the case, the Chaos would have shattered just from Vahn's energy.

The reason Vahn released her energy was to send it to Jin.

Just as God grants divine power to humans.

She had never lent her energy to others like this, but he trusted that Jin would be able to accept it.

The Chaos crouched in fear, still not understanding the situation.

Jin shuddered at the sensation of "rebirth."

Puzzzz-!

Like sparks scattering, light emerged from Jin's chest.

The Light Heart began to flash again with luminous blue energy.

Even in Bradamante's black sword, soaked in Shadow Energy, there was blue energy.

Jin's body, which had been as heavy as a stone, became much lighter, and it seemed he could cut through the chaos's shield.

'Now, I suppose I can fight properly.'

How the two of them came to resonate, how they will cultivate this new form of 'transmission' in the future, and what problems there are with the resonance?

It's not too late to think about these issues when this battle is over.

After all, there's no way Jin will die or be crippled while fighting Chaos.

"I recently found out I'm on borrowed time. It was quite surprising. Feel it, Chaos. Now, you're on borrowed time."

Shaak-!

Even the seemingly endless protective shield felt much closer, as Jin closed the distance with just two leaps.

Jin wielded his sword with eyes almost full of joy, but Vahn stayed back again at 5 steps from Jin.

As for the Chaos, it went berserk and leaped...

[¡Kyaaaaaagh!]

Jin was knocked back once by the chaos's roar, but he didn't faint as before.

It's quite bearable.

'It's not like last time where I'm going to take such a beating.'

Of course, the power shown by the chaos was only a small fraction.

However, now the Chaos had become a target Jin could pierce through, not an impenetrable wall.

Bradamante managed to pierce a part of the chaos's protective shield.

Surprised by Jin's sudden increase in strength, the chaos couldn't immediately restore the shield, and Jin, seizing the opportunity, attacked.

Slipping through the protective shield, Jin dodged its forearm's reflexive movement and aimed at the instep.

On top of the foot was a bulge of energy that originally belonged to Jin.

Jin quickly jumped onto its instep before starting to wrestle in earnest.

Like grabbing a fallen object, Jin reached out for the energy.

Jin felt as if he were savoring the sweetness of a delicious fruit after days of hunger, awakening his entire bloodstream in an instant.

He could feel his lost strength entering the dantian.

The power recovered from Chaos was about 10% of aura.

The moment of joy lasted briefly.

As the energy returned to his body, consciousness abruptly cut off again, like a broken thread.

However, unconscious Jin wore a smile of happiness, as if recovering something precious.
