Pwooh-!
Black blood tinged with chaos splattered on Jin’s face. Luntia, who relentlessly swung her sword, despite her body being shattered to pieces, finally stopped moving.
[Ha…….]
The disconnected points that seemed to be cut off like threads behind Luntia could be seen. The connection points tried to converge back into Luntia, but they were blocked by the shockwaves left by Plutonian’s reigning sword.
Particles of chaos, like black rain, were falling between cracks in subspace.
Jin stabbed a sibling whom he felt homogeneity inside. Although the situation could not have been avoided, his heart still ached as if something had broken.
[I have...lost.]
There was a metallic sound from Luntia's tired throat. Jin didn't twist the sword that stabbed her in the chest.
If possible, Jin wanted to talk to his sister one last time. Luntia, who faced her death, if only she could shake off madness even a little.
“Elder Sister Luntia.”
[Hu.]
“Are you back to your senses?”
[The youngest….]
Jin's eyes widened. Luntia's reason was returning. Luntia slowly grabbed Bradamante's blade.
Her eyes, which alternated between the blade and Jin, were no longer filled with the darkness of chaos.
Suddenly overwhelmed by emotions, Luntia shut her eyes tightly for a moment.
[I did something terrible to you...]
She started pushing the blade out of her body with the little strength she had left.
It wasn't an action for retaliation.
Jin carefully helped her pull the sword out of her body.
Every time she moved or exerted force, hardened flesh fell off like stones.
As soon as the sword was out, Luntia took a slow breath.
Jin couldn't decide what to say to her.
[You had no choice but to stab me.]
Jin had only seen one human who found his reason even after completely engulfed in chaos.
It was when Ron Hairan became the genesis knight, but Luntia's reason for coming back seemed different from his.
She wasn't genesis knight like Ron.
[There couldn't have been a better option than this. If it wasn't you, I would have had to endure meaningless years dominated by this dark space and chaos.]
“How did... how did it come to this?”
Luntia replied with a bitter smile.
[Because of the family.]
Family.
The family she was talking about wouldn't be Rosa or the other siblings.
When Runcandel used the word ‘family’, as if referring to something very precious, it usually meant someone other than blood relatives.
A nanny who played a more genuine parental role than parents, companions formed during the growth process, someone who gave her heart, or siblings who became close in very special cases.
So Jin immediately thought of one person's name.
“…… nanny Lisham. Did Rosa and the Prophet took Lisham as a hostage?”
Lisham, she is the nanny of Luntia Runcandel.
Before starting the battle, Jin asked Luntia if she had a weakness, because he had Lisham in mind from the beginning.
Luntia nodded her head.
[My nanny asked me for a favor.]
“Nanny Lisham asked you to accept the chaos……?”
The nannies in Runcandel have been so dedicated to the point of being cruel.
Personal life does not exist for nannies. They exist solely for the children they are entrusted with and never do anything that would harm them under any circumstances.
Taimyun Marius, who had deceived Luna, eventually became Joshua's dog, but her essence was ultimately a twisted love for Luna.
Not only Gilly, but even Taimyun would not have asked her child to accept chaos.
As far as Jin knew, Lisham wasn’t that kind of person.
She can pay any price, even death or something more severe, for Luntia’s sake.
“Isn’t Nanny Lisham already brainwashed?”
[No, the nanny was fine. Just…….]
Luntia's eyes turned red.
[She had a daughter.]
“Nanny Lisham had a daughter?”
The nannies of Runcandel cannot have children.
Even the adopted children raised by Taimyun at the orphanage were just weapons that could be used and discarded at any time.
If they were Taimyun biological children, Runcandel would not have chosen Taimyun as nanny.
However, Lisham has a biological child.
Even without hearing it, Jin seemed to know the unpleasant circumstances that would follow.
[When I was in Storm Castle, my nanny was away for about a year. She said she gave birth to a daughter then…….]
Lisham was in danger of paying a cruel price for breaking the laws of a nanny. In addition to the newly born child, the relatives of the three generation of her clan were almost exterminated.
But Lisham didn’t paid any price.
[But at that time, Father covered it up for me.]
At that time, Chiron covered Lisham's wrongdoing and saved her daughter and relatives with a single word.
It was the first time that a nanny broke the clan law in the era and Chiron covered it up.
Instead, after giving birth, Lisham never saw her daughter and her family again, and they were all banished from Huphester and moved to a small town in the Magical Federation of Lutero.
-…… The reason the patriarch forgave me at the time was probably because of the young lady.
-Because of me?
-Young lady, you cared for me very much when you were young. Of course, you still do.
-If it were my father, he would have thought that my current state lacked determination and fighting spirit. So he wouldn't have saved my nanny and her bloodline.
- But I'm alive, young lady. And now, even though I'm old and don't have much time left.... After that day, the daughter whom I never saw again is living a normal and happy life with her family. A peaceful and happy life.
-Ha…….
-Madame Rosa said that she would kill all of them now. Since it was originally patriarch’s work, even Madame Rosa did not know where the child was living...… but Lady Ilina found out.
- What, get up. Nanny. What are you doing?
- I have dedicated my whole life to you, young lady. I have given my youth and everything to her. So, just once... just once, can't you show mercy to this wretched person?
- I'll try to stop my mother. Get up, don't do this!
- But that alone won't allow my daughter and grandchildren to survive...
Rosa's condition was that Luntia "replace" the owner of this subspace - the person who was originally the owner of this space.
Luntia accepted the condition. As Luntia explained these things, Jin struggled to control the hatred that was building up inside him towards Rosa.
[She said it was only for a year and said that it was enough to replace the original owner of this subspace for just one year. The old ten great knight Padler Runcandel, he was originally the owner of this place.]
Jin had anticipated that the Prophet would retrieve Padler from his tomb, but he had never thought that Luntia would be the one to replace him.
He had never even considered that such a thing was possible.
“Damn it…….”
[But as soon as I took the place of Sir Padler through Ilina's abilities, I realized that it was a lie. I couldn't get out of this place even after 100 years, not just one year. The Prophet might have another method that I didn't know about, but I was sure. I have completely become one with the subspace.]
That why Luntia was able to regain her sanity despite being consumed by chaos. She was no longer the human Luntia Runcandel; she had become the subspace itself.
Therefore, as much as the subspace's chaos was consumed, the chaos that had consumed Luntia also became weaker.
This also meant that if the subspace collapsed, Luntia would also face death.
Even now, the subspace was breaking in real time. Dropping the black rain of chaos.
Jin's gaze landed on the points of connection.
“If I reconnect them to you, can you survive?"
[Probably. The entire subspace hasn't been completely destroyed yet. But I don't really want that, youngest. It's better to end it like this. At least my sanity has returned, and I can die as myself.]
“How did you get in here, elder sister? In my opinion, the prophet does not know how to come back here, even though she may be able to replace Sir Padler with you, elder sister."
[It could be. But does that matter? The purpose would have been to use Sir Padler, who was here on my behalf, as a full force anyway.]
“I know one sure way to get in here. If you're alive, I'll be back when I can save you someday. It's not yet possible to cure cases of complete encroachment like you yet, but there is a way to purify the chaos."
[If I reconnect to it, I'll go crazy again.]
“I don't want to lose you like this. If you hold on, I will make sure that purification is possible. If you disappear like this, you won't be able to exact revenge on them, will you, elder sister? There is no guarantee that they will have kept their promise to save nanny Lisham’s daughter."
[That's right, there is no guarantee. It was only our mother's promise. If the nanny had told me before her family was taken hostage, I might have found another way. But at that moment, I couldn't ignore nanny.]
"If it were me, I wouldn't have been able to ignore Gilly either. I will check on and protect Nanny Lisham's family, so please wait.”
Luntia pondered for a moment before nodding her head.
[Okay. Since I'm trapped in a trap anyway... But what is the reason for going this far for me? Even if you kill me here, it won't be that bad for you.]
“Then couldn't we become a better family, elder sister, you and I?"
Jin grabbed the connecting points.
[Jin, if I get the power of the subspace again now.]
“I will connect you after I find Hister. If you have enough strength to move, please help me. You said Hister is hiding somewhere in this subspace.”
[Okay.]
