Volume 1 Chapter 5 – Stormy Days at the Castle (4)

[Translator – KokonutMilk]

[Proofreader – yukitokata]

Jin's third sister, Mary Runcandel.

Currently aged 19, she is known around the world as 'Stormwind Mary'.

In the Runcandel Clan's thousand-year-old history, not a single child failed to become a 1-star knight before reaching 14. By 16, most would be 3-star knights, and the average would become a 5-star before the age of 20.

Mary's case was the complete opposite of the past Jin.

She exceeded the Runcandel Clan's norm. While Jin became a 1-star knight at 25 years old, she achieved the same feat at 12 and was already a 5-star knight at 16.

Moreover, she was currently a 6-star knight.

Despite not being 20 yet, she reached a stage that most people around the world could only dream of attaining.

By exceeding the Runcandel norm, the word 'genius' that applied to all Runcandels could no longer do justice to her and her achievements.

Regardless of her talents, Mary was one of the few people who had shown goodwill and compassion towards Jin in his previous life.

'She may have a screw or two loose in her head, but she's given me an incredible gift. I was just starting to get frustrated by my slow growth speed.'

One month has passed since Cyron left the Storm Castle.

During that time, the smell of the Phoenix Heart being decocted in the kitchen had spread throughout the entire castle. Moreover, several corridors and halls near the kitchen were scorching due to the special heat released by the Phoenix Heart.

Despite all this havoc, Mary had returned to the southern region as if the heart was insignificant to her.

Normally speaking, a Phoenix Heart was… a rarity similar to an elixir that even kings and queens couldn't eat often.

The meat was tender and softer than veal, it had a richer fragrance than truffles, and its effects were far more potent than herbal tonics.

"Young Master, within a couple of hours, you'll finally be able to eat the heart. Good job waiting patiently until now."

Jin nodded excitedly as his eyes glimmered.

It had taken Mary's gift a month to be fully cooked. Gilly hadn't been able to sleep properly during this entire month because she was busy simmering the Phoenix Heart for her young master.

Nevertheless, she was ecstatic. Jin's happiness was her happiness. A nanny within this clan was responsible for a Runcandel child's growth, and their future depended greatly on how strong and dependable the child became.

Due to this tradition, Jin felt guilt-ridden towards Gilly. In his previous life, his nanny's life had taken a turn for the worse after his banishment from the clan. Her future was bleak and her lifestyle had completely crumbled.

"You may not be aware, Young Master, but the Phoenix Heart is an elixir that is especially effective on children. You can increase your tolerance against flames only by eating it at a young age. Lady Mary has given you a truly priceless gift."

"Really?"

Jin was far more knowledgeable about the heart than Gilly, but he pretended to be interested by her explanation.

He had studied about the Phoenix Heart endlessly during the years when he was training his magic.

'However, I didn't do research on it back then because I wanted to eat one, but because I wanted to learn the traits of a phoenix as a magician.'

Summoning a phoenix was every magician's dream. But Jin had died right before becoming a 6-star magician, the stage at which one can finally summon the bird in question.

"Of course! I hid your eyes when I first saw the puddle of blood inside the box, but once I realized it was the priceless product that even the Vermont imperial family couldn't easily obtain…"

As Gilly continued her lengthy commentary, Jin began to think about phoenixes.

He couldn't wait until he could finally summon one during this life. Learning magic as a Runcandel was strictly prohibited, but Jin had no intentions of giving up on it.

As long as he didn't get caught, everything would work out.

Moreover, if he gained unparalleled power or influence, or if he had a good enough justification, then it wouldn't matter even if he did get discovered.

Martial arts and magic.

A lifestyle and path that encompassed both of those aspects: the Magic Swordsman. In order to become a magic swordsman, Jin was prepared to shoulder any hardships.

'If it were me… I would never have let my enemies steal and eat my phoenix's heart.'

Phoenixes were immortal beings that would be reborn even after death. Even if one were killed by an enemy and had its heart stolen, it would revive 100 years later in nature.

Nevertheless, 100 years was a long period of time. The phoenix's original summoner would've died by then.

"You mustn't forget to thank Lady Mary the next time you see her, Young Master."

"Yeah, I won't."

The Phoenix Heart was ready. A strong and rich fragrance began to spread throughout the castle.

"I must go prepare your meal, so come down in a little while, Young Master!"

Gilly exited the room, humming and skipping in joy as the door remained ajar. Once she left his field of vision, a deep sigh escaped Jin's mouth.

"Stop loitering around me. It's annoying."

"Ah, o-okay."

"Sure…"

The Tona twins had been dawdling outside the room since a while ago. Once Gilly had left, they stood by the entrance, close to the door, and shot glances towards their youngest brother.

Jin let out a light snicker when he noticed the twins drooling from the smell.

'Geez, look at these cute, little brats…'

When he gestured them to get closer with his finger, the Tona twins dashed inside the room.

"Why are you here?"

Jin asked them coldly despite knowing full well that they were here for the Phoenix Heart. The Tona twins were squirming awkwardly, as if they desperately needed to head to the bathroom.

They wanted to ask Jin to share some of the Phoenix Heart, but were too afraid to do so. The beating from last month and their father's scolding had traumatized them.

Jin found this situation quite entertaining. In his previous life, the Tona twins would always steal something from him or beat him up if he bumped into them in the hallways. He could never have imagined that they'd be the ones being cautious of him now.

'They were probably ordered by Emma to convince me to share some Phoenix Heart with them.'

Emma Niltro.

Just like Gilly, she was a nanny living in the Storm Castle. She was in charge of the Tona twins' growth. However, unlike Gilly who had died a gruesome death during Jin's first life, Emma had been living lavishly thanks to the well-off Tona twins.

Despite becoming crazed murderers, Daytona and Haytona never forgot about Emma and took good care of her. But that was all part of her plan.

If Gilly was the type to raise children with love and affection, Emma was the type to raise them using the carrot and stick approach. She never taught the Tona twins concepts such as selflessness or morality.

Truth be told, both of those concepts weren't very useful in the Runcandel Clan, as one's enemies could take advantage of them. But Jin still believed that Emma's teachings were distorted.

She was the biggest influence upon the Tona twins' upbringing, and was the cause of their twisted characters.

"Um… you see… the Phoenix…"

"That… isn't there… a bit too much to eat… on your own?"

"What was that? I can't hear you."

"The Phoenix Heart soup. Could you share a bowl with us? Otherwise, we'll get scolded by Emma."

"Do us a favor, brother."

'Seems like they're more afraid of Emma than me.'

Jin snickered as he thought to himself.

"I don't want to."

"Ah, please…"

"We're begging you!"

The Tona twins were on the verge of crying, but Jin had not a speck of sympathy for them within his heart.

Jin already knew that the Tonas were used to the carrot and stick approach, so he planned on making them do some physically exhausting work in return for the Phoenix Heart soup.

"If you're willing to go that far, then I won't refuse. But I have a condition."

"Oh, what is it? What is it?"

"Remember that grave I made?"

The Tona twins shuddered and turned pale at the word 'grave'. The memories of being pummelled and left out in the rainstorm in front of the grave had resurfaced.

"If you look carefully, there's a small hole behind that grave."

"A hole?"

"Yeah. Like a burrow. I want you two to dig into that hole and make it deeper. You have until nightfall. Of course, you can't rest at all."

The task Jin had given to his 9-year-old brothers was, quite literally, a waste of time.

"Why… do we need to dig there?"

"I want to bury the bird you two killed in a deeper hole and give it a better grave."

The twins lost strength in their legs and felt them wobble.

However, if they didn't have to face their terrifying brother in another fight, and could eat the Phoenix Heart soup with such a trifling task, then they had no complaints.

"How deep do we need to dig?"

"I told you to dig until nightfall with no rest, didn't I?"

"Alright. So if we dig until then, you'll share some Phoenix Heart soup with us?"

"Of course I will. But you need to do your best. If I'm not satisfied by the depth of the hole, this agreement is invalid. Oh, by the way, there are plenty of shovels in the warehouse. You should use those."

"Sure!"

"And this is pretty obvious, but you can't order someone else to dig for you, alright?"

The twins nodded vigorously and immediately departed to begin their work.

While the Tona twins were shovelling in the backyard, Jin was eating the Phoenix Heart soup at the dinner table.

"Is it that tasty, Young Master?"

Gilly asked as she watched Jin gleefully slurping down the meal. She thought that Jin was joyful because of the delicious soup.

"Yeah, it's so tasty!"

"There's more than enough to last you for 3 days, so don't hesitate to ask if you want another serving."

With each spoonful going down his throat, Jin could feel his bones and skin becoming sturdy. If he ate the soup for 3 days, his affinity and resistance against fire would increase substantially.

However, Jin wasn't smiling from ear to ear because of the Phoenix Heart.

'Within a few days, I'll have access to the secret tomes…!'

The spot where the Tona twins were digging, behind the bird's grave.

Despite being only 9 years old, the twins' physical abilities were still far above the world's average as they were of the Runcandel bloodline.

The Runcandels had special bodies as if they had been blessed by the heavens.

So if the twins continued digging until nightfall using their blessed bodies, the hole would reach the 'underground wall'.

'They won't be able to tell if it's a wall or just a hard boulder, though.'

Below the Storm Castle was a secret underground area where some of the Runcandel Clan's 'wrongdoings' were hidden.

The secret tomes of other clans.

The Runcandels had subdued and destroyed other clans throughout their history. During these wars, they would steal their enemies' secret books, scrolls, and records.

It goes without saying that Jin wouldn't be able to easily infiltrate the underground area just because the Tona twins dug until the wall. He would have to deal with the two protective installations that repelled outsiders first.

But Jin already knew how to disable them. He had technically lived in the Runcandel Clan for 25 years during his previous life, despite being treated worse than bugs. He had picked up some information and a few tricks here and there within the clan.

'I'll just study those books until the day I leave the Storm Castle.'

Jin had emptied two bowls of soup for dinner.

"Nanny Gilly."

"Yes, Young Master?"

"Could you share some of the Phoenix Heart soup with the twins when night falls?"

"Ah, how much should I give them?"

"One spoonful each."

"O-One… spoonful? Why bother sharing some with them in that case? You should eat it all on your own instead."

"I must keep my promise. If they complain about it and ask for more, tell them I said this: 'I'll show you how kind and gentle Emma is compared to me'."

Gilly smiled awkwardly as she bowed to him.

'Young Master Jin… Has the ruthlessness of the clan already started to affect him? He's still too young to be acting like this.'

As her wry smile turned into a bitter expression, Jin cuddled into Gilly's embrace.

"Elder sister Mary gave me the heart for my sake, and Gilly carefully prepared the soup for an entire month with dozens of sleepless nights. I don't want to share such a precious meal with those idiots."

"Young master…"

Shcrrt, shcrrt.

Despite being drenched from the rain, the twins continued shovelling the earth.

They reached the underground wall around midnight, which was when they finally stopped digging.

"One spoon?!"

"One spoonful only? That's just unfair! We dug the ground for the entire day!"

The Tona twins belatedly realized that they hadn't decided upon a proper 'amount' during their agreement with Jin, and were enraged by their so-called 'reward'.

However, they couldn't voice out their frustrations for too long, as Jin glared at them, as if to tell them to savour the spoonful gratefully.

'You brats… If one could earn a spoonful of Phoenix Heart soup with one day of shovelling, most people around the world would come running to me.'

Jin truly believed that the twins should be extremely grateful to receive a spoonful of the soup from him.

Volume 1 Chapter 6 – Stormy Days at the Castle (5)

[Translator – KokonutMilk]

[Proofreader – yukitokata]

The next morning, Jin went to the hole the Tona twins had dug.

It appeared that the twins hadn't resorted to petty tricks. They had dug the hole quite seriously. Inside the deep hole, Jin could see a goldish stone wall on the side at the bottom.

Currently, there were 7 guardian knights, 2 nannies and a dozen servants at the castle. Of course, the Tona twins were here as well.

Nobody would come here looking for Jin or suspect him of scheming something.

'Telling them that I wanted to come here to pray for the dead bird was a pretty good excuse.'

Recently, the members of the Runcandel Clan residing at the Storm Castle were wary of Jin. The youngest child of the patriarch did not behave like a young child, and was eerily mature.

In fact, some were more than just wary. Many were afraid of the 7-year-old boy. The servants gossiped about him, saying that he was a perfect copy of his cold-hearted father, and the guardian knights obeyed him as if he were their superior.

But when Jin said that he would go pray for the bird, they were all relieved. They thought that despite being Cyron Runcandel's son, a child is still a child.

'I pray that you'll find happiness in your next life.'

Jin hadn't lied when he said he would pray for the bird. He truly did pity it.

Once he finished moving the bird's grave to the bottom of the deep hole the twins had dug, Jin approached the stone wall on the side. There were scratches made by the shovels on its surface.

The wall itself wasn't very solid. There weren't any metal bars or wires inside to increase its durability, so Jin could easily destroy it with a punch wrapped in shadows.

However, breaking it like that would definitely create a loud explosion.

The constant rain outside would somewhat muffle the sound, but the 7-star knights in the castle would most likely catch the noise.

"Hahaha."

Jin suddenly laughed as he couldn't hold himself back. He then spread out his arms and placed his hands against the wall. Immediately, the stone wall began to vibrate ever so slightly.

Wroooom!

It was the 1-star earth magic spell, 'Earth Resonance'.

Earth Resonance was a spell that magicians often used while camping outside or exploring the wild, but its lethality was nigh-zero.

"I've been dying to use magic!"

The practicality and pleasure of using magic!

He hadn't felt this liberating sensation for the past 7 years. Because he had retained his memories and knowledge from his past life, being unable to use magic since he was born was like a punishment to Jin.

Magic, a magician's strength.

When he first realized he had been reborn, Jin wondered how he should start learning magic and store mana again…

However, his worries were unfounded. Just like how Solderet's power was still available to him, the mana he had amassed during his previous life was also accessible in this new life.

'The only issue is that there's a limit to the amount of mana I can use right now because of my immature body. But it's better than nothing!'

In his past life, Jin was about to reach the 6-star realm in magic after training for 3 years.

Currently, the amount of mana Jin could utilize was equivalent to that of a 1-star magician, but it would increase over time as he grew up.

Everytime he aged by another year, he could feel more mana generating within him. Moreover, it was a natural occurrence. Jin hadn't been training to increase his mana or anything.

Therefore, he came to the conclusion that the mana he had accumulated in his past life was slowly returning to him over the years.

'The mana of a 1-star magician at 7 years old! I'm certain that no one else in history managed to achieve this feat. At this pace, I'll reach 6-star before I turn 20 at the latest.'

His second life was incomparably preferable and advantageous compared to his first one.

He was ecstatic and overjoyed right now. At the young age of 7, Jin could utilize both spiritual power and mana, along with the knowledge and expertise in 3-star swordsmanship and 5-star magic.

Furthermore, he could now study the secret tomes of countless martial clans around the world that the Runcandel Clan plundered from! His motivation was at its peak currently, and it would not die down for a long while.

'Heh, I truly am a magician down to the core. I never thought I'd be so delighted to use a simple spell like Earth Resonance.'

The times he could use magic within the Runcandel Clan was extremely limited.

One could even say that until this moment, Jin had no other opportunities to use magic. There were almost no instances when Jin was on his own without anyone accompanying him.

Gilly would always be with him, and in the rare cases when she wasn't present, the guardian knights and servants would be by his side. And if, by some miracle, none of them were next to Jin, the Tona twins would come bother him.

Therefore, Jin never had the chance to use magic. There were also no moments when he would have no other choice but to resort to magic.

Even though Jin could now push the twins around like his servants, he could not afford to use magic and get busted by them.

If word spread to his parents or older siblings that Jin had used magic… his pleasant new life would immediately come to a close at that exact moment.

'I should seal away my magic for a while after today. Can't afford to get caught. But one day, I'll find a way to use as much magic as I want. Just you wait.'

As he licked his lips in anticipation, Jin once again focused on his hands placed against the wall. The sensation of having mana flow through his hands and fingers, and spread throughout the wall sent shivers down his spine.

Sssssssssst…

And so, 10 minutes passed by quietly. Earth Resonance's vibrations silently created dozens of cracks and fissures on the wall. Dirt and dust fell down heavily, as if the stone wall would soon collapse.

Krrrrrrt!

As a matter of fact, the center of the wall where Jin's hands were located crumbled into fine particles. A small hole appeared, where Jin could barely squeeze his body through. The child stared into the sight beyond the wall for a short instance.

There was an old, long hallway—as if he were in some ancient ruins—along with a large steel gate in the distance.

It would be a mistake to think that the Runcandel Clan's secret underground room could be so easily broken into.

The 'Storm Castle' was a fortress that even the Zipfel Clan's elite troops wouldn't be able to easily conquer. Jin was just lucky as he was a member of the Runcandel Clan who was residing within the said castle.

'So this is the secret underground sector that only the Runcandel flag-bearers can enter… Interesting layout.'

Flag-bearers.

They were the clan's representatives who stood on the front lines, waving the clan's emblem.

All the children of the Runcandel Clan became flag-bearers when they reached a certain level, barring the few exceptions like the previous Jin who was deemed incompetent.

Jin had heard countless stories about this underground room from his siblings. He, who could only imagine the wonders hiding inside, could finally see it with his own eyes.

Jin slightly choked up, as if something deep within his heart had surfaced.

'I didn't think it would affect me this much, but seeing it for myself, my emotions reacted subconsciously.'

Phew…

After exhaling and calming down, Jin squeezed himself into the hole.

Back in the pit the twins had dug, he could hear the constant downpour crashing onto the ground, but as soon as he entered the underground corridor, the noise completely disappeared. With a solemn heart, Jin removed his shoes.

He couldn't leave behind traces of mud in the corridor.

The path was dimly lit by a few torches on the walls, where oil dripped down.

Jin was about to create a flame with magic to illuminate the place, but decided to grab one of the torches instead. Walking down a worn down corridor barefoot with a torch in hand, he felt like he had become a monk.

'Mother used to tell me that before reaching that door, the Runcandel children need to prove that they're part of the bloodline.'

Jin remembered hearing that when he was around 16.

Back then, Rosa still believed that her youngest child would one day become a respectable member of the clan.

She could not accept the fact that her child was untalented, and held distorted expectations towards him.

Rosa had secretly broken the clan rules in order to give Jin confidential information, despite the fact that he wasn't a genius like his siblings.

She wanted to believe that Jin would one day become a 6-star knight and receive the qualifications of a flag-bearer.

Rosa Runcandel, the Black Panther, was one of the strongest people in the clan and the world. However, the reason why she couldn't have an objective view and judgement towards Jin was simply because she was a mother.

His mother.

'Even so, she ended up facing and accepting the reality later on.'

Jin stopped reminiscing about the past and paused his walk towards the metal door.

He was at the center of the corridor. There were still around 50 steps left until he reached the gate.

'Runcandels and magic…?'

Pfft.

Jin couldn't help but chuckle when he noticed the magic circle on the floor.

It was a large magic circle, but even apprentice magicians could easily analyze it.

The Magic Circle of Blood and Barrier.

It was a popular magic circle one could often find at the entrances to kingdoms, or inside a businessman's warehouse, or at a famous mercenary group's headquarters.

Despite its impressive and grand name, it was a basic circle.

It was no different to a simple security device. All it could do was determine whether someone would pose a threat through one's blood.

'Those magic-hating clan members actually laid down a magic circle in front of the clan's secret chamber? Not only that, it's such a flimsy circle!'

Jin bit down on the inside of his cheek. A trail of blood seeped out of his mouth and ran down his chin. Before it could drop on the floor, Jin caught the blood with his hand.

Drip, drip…

All he needed was a few drops in order to activate the Magic Circle of Blood and Barrier. As he shook off the blood on his hands onto the circle, a blue aura began to fill the air from all four directions.

'Proof that we're part of the bloodline? What a joke.'

Jin was curious to know which of his ancestors was stupid enough to place this magic circle here.

This magic circle wasn't elaborate enough to be able to verify someone's bloodline and lineage. In fact, Jin wasn't sure if such magic existed in the first place.

There were only 3 things this magic circle could determine.

It could detect whether the blood was that of a monster, a human, or a plague-stricken human.

In other words, as long as they're able to reach this underground corridor, any healthy human is able to activate this magic circle safely.

The magic circle was completely useless, except for how it added an air of mystery to this ancient, hidden chamber.

'They believe in that weird superstition called the Selection ritual. They also believe that this magic circle is able to recognize a pure-blooded Runcandel. This clan is quite… peculiar. Very peculiar.'

Clang! Clang! Creaaaak….!

With the circle's activation, Jin could hear gears and metallic parts grinding and moving beneath the floor.

The circle was stopping the traps' operation—the traps that would've attacked Jin if he didn't activate the magic circle. He silently stood still and waited for the noise to subside.

'There are quite a lot of traps. I don't know the specifics, but the traps here are more elaborate than those found in a royal palace.'

The magic circle soon began to dim down, and lost its lustre. The traps had all been disabled. Jin resumed his march and headed towards the door.

He had safely dealt with one of the security systems of the Storm Castle's secret chamber. The remaining one was to safely open the door.

But that was even easier to do than activating the magic circle.

"Runcandel's descendant has come to solace Murakan."

Creaaak!

The gate began to slide open as soon as Jin uttered the password.

It was another type of 'barrier magic' similar to the magic circle just now, but was on a completely different level. It was a spell cast by a great dragon, who has since fallen into a deep slumber.

The password deactivates the spell, but without the correct words, the door will never budge open. That was the potency of this barrier magic.

One would have to be at least a 9-star knight in order to break the door open.

'I heard the password from my second brother before my rebirth, though he was being sarcastic, saying that it would never be of use to me.'

The Storm Castle's location: Mt. Murakan's summit.

The name 'Murakan' did not signify the mountain in the first place. It was the name of the Black Dragon who once reigned over this region.

Murakan was defeated 1000 years ago by the first Runcandel patriarch, and went into a deep slumber after handing over the Storm Castle.

This story was the most popular legend of the Runcandel Clan, known to everyone around the world.

The first thing Jin saw when the door opened wasn't a shelf with countless books, but a glass coffin.

Inside the glass coffin was a human body. It was Murakan who had transformed into a human before entering a deep slumber.

'Nobody told me about this…'

Ba-dump, Ba-dump.

Having come across an unexpected sight, Jin's body froze in surprise and unease.

He then slowly began approaching the glass coffin.

Volume 1 Chapter 7 – Black Dragon Murakan (1)

[Translator – KokonutMilk]

[Proofreader – yukitokata]

'I remember hearing the story that the Black Dragon Murakan was defeated by the first patriarch and fell into a deep slumber… So he was sleeping here?'

Jin didn't know a lot about Murakan. The legends and myths of the clan rarely mentioned him.

They just didn't care much about a dragon that had long since disappeared into the annals of history. The currently active dragons were more worrisome and troubling.

The glass coffin was sparkling clean, without a single speck of dust on its surface. But it wasn't being cleaned every day by a maid. The spotlessness was due to the mana surrounding the coffin.

Jin touched the mana with one hand, and chills immediately ran down his spine. As he swallowed his saliva, Jin took another step forward.

'That was an interesting sight.'

There was nothing Jin could learn from Murakan. If it were an awake and active dragon, things would've been different. But Murakan was a hibernating dragon inside a coffin, so Jin was more interested in finding the secret tomes.

'This place is bigger than I thought.'

The underground chamber seemed larger than the central hall at the Storm Castle. However, it felt empty as there were no decorations furbishing the place. Jin quickly began searching for the tomes.

Creaaak…

He pushed open the sliding door and located the library. Actually, it was far too shabby to be called a library. The Runcandel Secret 'Library' only contained one bookshelf and a few chairs. However, that was more than enough space to house the secret tomes.

There could only be so many books written by other martial clans around the world. The library would have no use of extra shelves.

'The tomes!'

On the 1.50 meter-wide shelf were dusty books arranged neatly. These books had once been written and used by martial clans around the world, and tried to protect them with their lives on the line.

These were the essence of the martial clans that only the flag-bearers could read.

Jin calmed down his trembling heart and began checking the names on each of the books on the shelf.

'The hand-to-hand combat techniques of the Meyer Clan and Typhen Clan, spear techniques of the Euron Clan and Shagal Clan, swordsmanship from the Attila Clan, etc.… There are so many of them.'

Jin also found a few books from the Kungen Clan, the clan of swordsmen that had attacked the Storm Castle around 200 years ago. Jin's hands were trembling ever so slightly as he checked the tomes one by one.

His excitement was overflowing.

In his first life, he had always wished to become a flag-bearer and come down here to read the secret tomes. Now that he was finally here, the memories of his hardships and despair flashed through his mind.

Of course, he hadn't come down to the underground chamber as a flag-bearer this time. Despite having the 'Runcandel' family name, he was no different to a thief who had infiltrated the library.

However, Jin didn't care about those small details.

Using whatever methods at hand was part of the Runcandels' virtue. Moreover, he was planning on officially coming to this underground chamber in a few years after becoming a true flag-bearer.

'Which one should I start with?'

What a first world problem. He was spoiled for choice. Jin wondered whether his older brothers felt this way when they were secretly reading porn books when their nannies were away. Jin chuckled as he scanned the books before him.

He didn't have a lot of time to remain down here.

2 hours.

The free time he had obtained through the excuse of wanting to pray for the bird was a mere 2 hours. After this amount of time, Gilly would most probably come to the castle's backyard in order to look for him.

It was as if Jin had a mountain of food before him, but could only eat for a few minutes.

'But I'll have another opportunity. I can come back here another day if I tell them I want to pray for the bird again or that I want to meditate.'

Ssst.

He pulled out a book from the shelf. Jin's first secret tome was the Kungen Clan's book of swordsmanship.

'Third Brother once told me that there is a lot to learn from this tome… Let's start with this.'

There were a total of 3 volumes of the Kungen Clan's secret tomes. Jin also picked out the remaining two volumes and sat on a chair.

Originally, the Kungen Clan's secret tomes numbered over 10. But when the Runcandels destroyed the clan 200 years ago, most of them were lost during the conflict.

The Runcandel Clan had destroyed them intentionally.

However, the three volumes in his hands were left untouched. These tomes summarized the essence of the Kungen Swordsmanship's greatest techniques.

Flutter, flutter.

The sound of pages turning accelerated. Despite being a secret tome, the first few pages of volume 1 only talked about the base and foundation of the swordsmanship, as well as the behaviour of the Kungen knights.

The flutter of pages stopped once Jin arrived at the middle of the book. His gaze deepened as his mind tried to absorb the words on the page.

The book that had only been describing the bases suddenly broached upon a difficult subject that Jin couldn't comprehend at all.

'I see… No wonder they're called secret tomes. It's not as easy as I thought.'

Despite being written in the continent's common language, Jin couldn't understand most of its contents due to his lacking skills and knowledge in swordsmanship.

Before his sudden death in the Akin Kingdom, the 28-year-old Jin had attained the 3-star realm in swordsmanship.

Not only was he slower to reach that stage than 'slightly skilled' people in general, he could be considered 'defective' compared to the average Runcandel.

However, it had only taken him half a year to reach that stage after his contract with Solderet, which could be considered an incredible feat.

Nonetheless, the Kungen book was far too difficult for him to understand with his 3-star skills and knowledge in swordsmanship.

Be that as it may, Jin had expected this outcome.

He took out a notebook and pencil he had brought with him.

Jin then began to copy the contents of the tome into his notebook. It was a transcription. In roughly 2 hours, he could copy around 10 pages of the book.

Back in his days as a magician, he had transcribed so many books that the fingerprints on his fingers holding the pencil had begun to fade away.

10 pages per day.

There were 3 years left until Jin would have to leave the Storm Castle. If he transcribed 10 pages every day during those 3 years, he could easily copy all the books here.

'And as I continue studying these, I'll slowly begin to understand the content over time. I'm sure there will be some tomes I won't have to transcribe.'

Scrt, scrt…

The sound of a pencil scratching paper resonated in the silent underground room. Jin took exactly 1 hour to copy 10 pages. He then retraced his steps and left the library.

He plugged the hole in the wall with earth magic and the dirt around him.

***

And so, 2 months went by. During that time, Jin had fully transcribed the 3 volumes from the Kungen Clan, as well as 2 tomes about the Meyer Clan's hand-to-hand combat techniques.

As the days went by, Jin felt more and more energetic and enthusiastic. He had never felt happier to get out of bed in the mornings before.

'What excuse should I use to go down there today? Praying? Meditating? No… I used those yesterday and the day before that already.'

There was a rumour going around the castle, where the servants believed that the spirit of the dead bird had possessed Jin.

He continuously went to its grave for 2 months in order to pray and meditate, so their confusion was understandable. Moreover, having heard this odd rumour, the Tona twins began to fear Jin to a far greater extent.

'Should I come up with an excuse… that will let me go there every day without raising suspicion?'

After pondering for a while, Jin couldn't think of anything. How could he possibly convince everyone to let him go to the grave every day?

Therefore, Jin began to change his train of thought.

'There's no need to convince them. If I tell them I'll go there every day, who would dare stand against me? This is the Storm Castle, not the clan's main residence.'

The guardian knights living here already served Jin as a 'true Runcandel' instead of treating him like a child, and the servants had no right to disprove his decisions from the start. The Tona twins were terrified of Jin, so he had no reason to worry about them.

The only problem was Gilly.

A nanny's role was different to that of a knight or a servant. They were people who supervised and guided the children they were in charge of.

"Nanny Gilly."

"Yes, Young Master."

"I want to go there again."

"Again…?"

Gilly's gaze was filled with concern.

Haaa.

She let out a deep sigh and patted Jin on the head.

"Young Master. It's unfortunate, but the bird has already passed away. It's been 2 months now. This nanny of yours is so concerned about you that she can't sleep properly at night."

"I've forgotten about the bird already. Honestly, I'm only going there everyday because I like it there."

"Y-You like it there? Young Master. You mustn't enjoy being near a grave. Misfortune will befall upon you!"

"What kind of misfortune?"

"Graves are the home of the deceased. Nothing good will happen by staying close to one. You must steer clear from those places to be blessed with good fortune, Young Master."

Apparently, the nannies of the Runcandel Clan had a tendency to believe in superstitions as well. Jin was sighing and shaking his head in his mind.

"No, I'll keep liking graves from now on."

"Young Master!"

"Nanny. Think about it. I'm the youngest child of the Runcandel Clan."

Once Jin took on a serious tone, Gilly's eyes widened.

"Why are you suddenly talking about…"

"How many graves do you think I'll have to make as I live in this world as a Runcandel? To tell the truth, I'm trying my best to understand what 'death' is these days. So I'm going to that grave every day in order to get used to it."

"Ah."

Gilly let out a mumble and stood there wordlessly.

She stared blankly at her young master as if her thoughts had come to a sudden stop.

Her 7-year-old young master, who was born as a 'predator' amongst the Runcandels, was trying to face the concept of fate and destiny already.

Needless to say, that was all her own misunderstanding.

Jin was just tricking his nanny—who was younger than him in his first life—to do his bidding.

To be frank, no actual 7-year-old would talk about such topics, even if they were geniuses born in the dreadful Runcandel Clan.

Nevertheless, Gilly and the others at the Storm Castle had no reason to doubt Jin's words and actions. No one would imagine that he had retained the memories from his first life.

'Something has definitely changed about the young master ever since he met the patriarch. The patriarch must've told him something crucial.'

Gilly fixed her expression and bowed down.

"…In that case, I will not stop you. I believe that the young master will one day become a remarkable knight who will lead the clan. And having listened to your honest opinion, I must say that I'm extremely proud of you, Young Master."

"Thanks, Gilly. Until I leave the Storm Castle, I'll be spending time at the grave for 1 to 2 hours every day."

"Yes, Young Master."

"And while I'm over there, I don't want to be disturbed in any way. Do you understand?"

"I shall inform the knights about that. Also, Young Master?"

"Yeah?"

"If I were to say something as your nanny and as an adult… it's not always a good thing to think too deeply about such topics at a young age. Please enjoy yourself doing fun activities from time to time."

"Alright, Gilly. In that case… hmm… I want a strawberry pie as a snack later. With lots of honey on it."

Gilly's stiff expression finally loosened as color returned to her face.

"I'll bake the best strawberry pie in the world. Have a good time."

Jin smiled brightly and immediately left the room.

'I did it! Now I can concentrate on transcribing without having to worry about anything.'

During the past 2 months, Jin was always nervous when he entered the underground chamber. If the knights or Gilly came looking for him and discovered the hole, chaos would descend upon the clan.

'Since I managed to catch father's interest, they probably won't execute me even if they find out about this. But it would still be extremely troublesome and unnerving.'

A humming sound escaped his nose unconsciously. Even the Earth Resonance spell felt like it was creating a rhythm as it destroyed the underground wall he had resealed the previous day.

He was planning on transcribing the final volume of the Meyer Clan's tomes on hand-to-hand combat techniques.

Scribble, scribble!

As he rejoiced at how his remaining 3 years at the castle would be peaceful, he copied the contents of the page.

His reincarnation was truly a blessing to him.

'The Meyer Clan's hand-to-hand combat technique doesn't seem as difficult to understand as the Kungen Clan's swordsmanship. But this passage about merging one's physical body with aura… I don't get it. Oh well, I'm sure it'll become clear with time.'

An hour went by inside the underground library.

Having transcribed several pages without rest, Jin's thin and soft fingers were throbbing. As he decided to take a 3-minute break,

Click…

He heard a noise behind the sliding door. Jin immediately stood up in surprise and focused his senses.

It was the sound of the glass coffin opening.

Volume 1 Chapter 8 – Black Dragon Murakan (2)

[Translator – KokonutMilk]

[Proofreader – yukitokata]

During the past 2 months he had spent transcribing the books underground, the only sounds that resounded down there were that of his pencil scribbling on paper and the occasional wind blowing.

Therefore, despite being separated by the sliding door, Jin instinctively knew that Murakan's glass coffin was opening. Anyone else in Jin's situation would've come to the same conclusion.

'Goddammit. Why is Murakan waking up now of all times?!'

Badump! Badump!

His heart accelerated like crazy as if it had lost complete control over itself.

The calm and safe Storm Castle's underground area had suddenly become menacing and hazardous. A chill ran up his spine as cold sweat slid down his face.

'Could it be… that I misheard it?'

As silence ensued, Jin began to doubt his ears. The previous sound could've been something else, or Jin might've imagined it from the beginning.

However, his hopes were destroyed, as another click rang beyond the sliding door.

As a matter of fact, that wasn't the only noise this time. He could hear clothes brushing against the glass coffin, along with the sound of someone's feet touching the ground.

There was no way the dragon who had been sleeping for 1000 years was suddenly sleepwalking. It could only have woken up for a clear reason and purpose.

Or it could be that its slumber was finally over, and that the timing was a complete coincidence.

'Calm down, calm down. I've never offended Murakan before. It shouldn't be hostile towards me…'

He didn't remember Murakan waking up in his past life.

There's no way Jin couldn't have heard of the news of Murakan's awakening, especially since he was still living in the Storm Castle back then as well.

'In that case, this incident is because of my return in time. My guess is that Murakan woke up because of my constant appearance here.'

There was a famous story around the continent. It said that one shouldn't disturb a sleeping dragon. Otherwise, one's life would be forfeited.

Needless to say, despite being a famous story, people rarely came across dragons in real life.

In any case, the moral of the story was that…

Dragons have terrible personalities.

"Hey."

Flinch.

A low and deep voice reached Jin from behind the door. Jin was still pondering on how to survive this situation.

A few chaotic seconds went by. He made up his mind on how to behave towards Murakan.

'Be respectful yet brazen. Even if Murakan tries to attack me… I just need to buy time until the knights arrive.'

But that was only for the worst case scenario.

And even if the worst case scenario were to occur, Jin was confident that he could survive with his life intact at the very least. He could easily buy time with Solderet's spiritual power, his own magic, and his silver tongue.

It was unlikely that he would die.

As soon as he reached that conclusion, the stress weighing down on his shoulders eased up. Murakan could also be different from what he imagined. The dragon could be friendly with him instead of being hostile.

Sccrt.

Jin stood up and slid the door open to face Murakan.

The black-haired handsome young man he saw every day in the coffin was now standing straight before him. The dragon's human body was toned, and one would never believe that he had been asleep for over 1000 years.

"R-Runcandel's descendent… greets the clan's guardian."

Jin deliberately stuttered and spoke nervously.

He believed that he should act like a child who was afraid of the thousand-year-old dragon. Moreover, the Runcandels used to call Murakan their 'guardian', so Jin decided to emphasize that word.

"Ha!"

Murakan snorted.

"Guardiannnn? Guardian? Did you just say 'guardian'? Huh?"

Woooong!

All he had done was speak out loud, but the mana inside the room began to tremble and spin around like a vortex.

"Say that again, you shitty brat. Did you just say that I'm your clan's guardian?"

Murakan's body disappeared into a handful of black smoke, only to materialize right before his eyes.

"Are you not Lord Murakan? I've been told that the Black Dragon Murakan is the Runcandel Clan's guardian."

When Jin answered properly, Murakan stared at him and blinked several times. He felt like there was no need to stutter and act scared anymore.

"Sigh, I see. Those damned Runcandel bastards… So that's what you told your descendants. Haha! And it's not like I can take out my anger on this chestnut-sized kid. This is driving me crazy!"

Jin was relieved after hearing the dragon's reply.

'Looks like he's not completely merciless against children.'

Nevertheless, the murderous intent within the dragon's black irides were an indication of his character.

If Jin were in his original 28-year-old body, Murakan would've broken a limb or two without hesitation before continuing the conversation.

'But why on earth did the black dragon wake up now? It doesn't seem to be because I've been coming down here every day. Could there be some other reason…? Ah, maybe it's because of Solderet's power?'

Spiritual power.

The power of shadows.

That was the only thing Jin could think of as the reason behind Murakan's awakening from his thousand-year slumber.

Jin didn't use spiritual power outside of special circumstances. But there was always a subtle amount of spiritual energy swirling around him, an amount that humans wouldn't be able to detect.

'Come to think of it, the contractors of gods generally have a guardian dragon by their sides, other than certain exceptional cases…'

Contractors of the God of Flames Sheenu received the favour of fire dragons, while contractors of the God of Wind Melzeyer are favoured by wind dragons.

That was the reason why the Zipfel Clan was slightly more advanced than the Runcandel Clan. Officially speaking, the Zipfel Clan has more than 100 dragons under their command. Who knows how many more they have behind the scenes?

While this was just Jin's hypothesis, depending on the outcome, this encounter between Jin and Murakan may be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

'The only problem is that my theory may be wrong. Moreover, I've never heard of a dragon whose attribute is similar to 'shadows'…'

The current patriarch of the Zipfel Clan is Kelliark Zipfel, the contractor of the God of Flames Sheenu. They say that he is very close with the fire dragon 'Kadun'.

The contractor of the God of Wind Melzeyer is the current second-in-command of the Zipfel Clan, and is famous for handling a wind dragon.

According to these two examples, dragons try to look for contractors who have a similar attribute as them.

However, Jin had never heard of a story associating Solderet with a dragon.

Even during his conversations with Solderet in his first life, the topic of Murakan was never brought up.

'Let's test it out for now. Thankfully, this isn't the worst case scenario.'

If Murakan had truly woken up due to Jin's spiritual energy, then there was nothing for him to be afraid of.

Sssssst…

Hmph!

Murakan suddenly took in a deep breath, just like a dog who got a whiff of something delicious, or a heavy smoker who finally managed to light a cigarette.

"Ha… Anyways. This child isn't to blame for any of that. Hmm… This energy smells nice. For some reason, it makes me feel great! What's your name, kid?"

"It's Jin Runcandel, Lord Murakan."

"Good, good. Jin, you say? Honestly, I couldn't care less about your name. You're a Runcandel, right? Then lead me to Solderet's contractor right away."

"Solderet's contractor?"

"That's right! This deep energy… Only the contractor could have such strong spiritual energy. I just hope this contractor isn't as rude as Temar, that son of a bitch."

Temar Runcandel.

The name of the first patriarch.

Jin almost accidentally cried out in joy.

It seemed his second life was going to be smooth sailing. To think that his earlier questions and concerns would be answered and resolved so quickly!

'It's certain now. He woke up because of the spiritual energy! Moreover, his reaction… It means that I'm the one in power in this relationship!'

Sniff, sniff. Sniff!

Murakan was now completely ignoring Jin. He closed his eyes and focused on sensing the energy.

Meanwhile, Jin pondered for a moment.

'Should I tell him I'm the contractor? Or should I say that I don't know what he's talking about?'

The first option would be preferable. With the first option, Jin would be able to order Murakan around like a servant in the future.

The second option would be a lot more troublesome. If Jin acted ignorant, the dragon would tell him to bring an adult of the clan. And if Jin did bring an adult down here, he would have to explain how this situation occurred in the first place.

In that scenario, he would have to kiss these peaceful days goodbye. He wouldn't be able to transcribe any more books. Moreover, his fateful encounter with Murakan would have amounted to nothing.

Fwoosh.

A small ball of energy that danced like flames appeared on Jin's palm.

"Sniff! Hm! Oooh! It's like my mind is getting clearer… Huh?"

Murakan savoured the energy's scent before opening his eyes. Immediately, he couldn't hide his surprise.

"It seems that I'm the contractor you're looking for, Lord Murakan."

"Y-Y-Y-Y-You? Impossible. This is madness! Solderet made a contract with a kid like you?"

Murakan began to retreat in fear. He almost fell down from tripping on his own feet, as the panic in him began to grow.

"This is crazy. Unacceptable. Oi, Solderet! You're listening, right? Did you finally go batshit? Explain yourself!"

While Murakan was freaking out, Jin created a second cluster of shadows on his other hand.

"My father told me that this power was given to me by the being who brought shadows into this world."

"Urgh."

Thump.

Murakan fell on his behind and looked up at Jin.

Silence ensued. Jin wanted to continue their conversation, but the mood wasn't right. He couldn't bring himself to do so when he saw Murakan's composure fall apart in real time.

Denial. Anger. Doubt. Fear. Surrender.

His expressions were changing in that exact order.

"Oi… Solderet. This is a joke, right? This isn't right. Say something. Why is the promised contractor of a thousand years this kid...?"

Solderet never showed himself.

His silence was also one of Jin's concerns.

Back when they had made their contract, the two used to chat like good friends. But ever since right before his death, Solderet never spoke to Jin again to this day.

In any case, it seemed Murakan needed some time to accept this reality.

However, he was a dragon.

Despite his short temper and wicked personality, he was still a dragon who had lived for thousands of years. He had a keen insight, along with an indomitable spirit that wouldn't despair at unexpected situations.

Murakan soon ended up accepting this absurd situation. That was the most he could do right now.

"Sigh… Kid."

"Yes?"

"It seems that you're the individual with whom I must adjust my breath, as according to my promise with Solderet."

A dragon's breath!

A dragon had personally declared as such to Jin. And it was Murakan, the black dragon the first patriarch had defeated, to boot!

Back when he was a magician, his heart used to beat so loudly whenever he heard rumours of magicians fighting side by side with a dragon.

Jin's nose began to itch as his emotions intensified. He couldn't control the heat rising to his face in excitement, so he ended up lowering his head.

"Um, by adjusting your breath, you mean…?"

"Sigh… You're still too young to understand the details. And I'm not in the right mind to explain it to you right now."

Jin silently nodded at his answer.

"First and foremost, as a friend of Solderet's, allow me to formally introduce myself to Solderet's contractor."

Whoosh…

A heavy wind blew in the room. A dark energy began to form in the air and swirled around Murakan's body.

He was transforming into his dragon form. The dark energy covering Murakan expanded like a cloud, and a huge black dragon that completely filled up the underground room entered Jin's vision.

[I am Murakan. Solderet's proxy as well as his friend. The last descendant of the first being to be created from shadows. Following the thousand-year promise, I shall be your life-long partner from today onwards. State your name.]

A grandiose voice shook the room. The hot-tempered attitude from earlier was nowhere to be found.

"I am Jin Runcandel. Thirteenth and final child of the Runcandels."

Jin answered as he barely repressed his trembling heart.
