378 Episode 115. Jonah's Warning (2)

"Some of them are trying to kill me? You didn't come to me as their assassin, did you? Goodbye in a moment, youngest. You know, like this, you cut my throat...….”

"It's suicidal for those uninteresting old meatballs to entrust me with a commission."

Due to the strict orders of the Siron, no one in the present family could use Jonah.

In the past, even Joshua was indirectly involved with Jonah while keeping Jin in check (the return of Jonah's family had been delayed due to Jin's deal with Orl). He was slapped on the cheek by Siron and returned the black-gold.

"And if I did, would I kill you?”

"That's right. She wouldn't stab me. I'm also a benefactor of Samil. I was joking."

"I hate such jokes!"

Jean gave a giggle.

"Okay. So, what kind of guys are they?”

It was not a new issue for the elders to try to kill themselves. I was sure there would be a lot of people who would want to kill themselves if I became a jockey anyway.

Jin had thought that those who wanted to kill him in earnest would appear first, and that among the elders, there would be those who would take up the sword first rather than the riders.

He's always had problems with his family since he was a cadet. At the end of the reserve term, a reward of 300 million won was paid in Looncandel alone.

Even the old and humiliating Looncandel tradition of banning the use of magic has always been violated, so in a way it is natural to be chastened.

'It's rather late. No, it's too late.’

Jean's lips went up.

Now, I was not afraid of attacking the senate, or "some" of it.

However, Jonah's serious expression bothered me a little.

"What kind of guys are they?”

"I didn't hear exactly who the elders were. If I had known, I would have killed them...….”

"No, the assassins commissioned by some unknown originator."

"Huh? How did you know that? I haven't told you they've assigned you an assassination request yet."

"It's obvious. The only people who have the power to kill me with their own swords are the chapters. None of them will benefit from my death.”

Jorden Looncandel of the Black Sword Council, Lynn Milcano of the Court of Appeals, and Telot Looncandel of the Tribunal.

Among them, Telot is a tentative ally, Jorden is a clear enemy, and Lin is a tentative enemy. But even Jorden had nothing to gain by killing Jean right now.

You're smart enough to be sloppy with obvious problems. Isn't that obvious? Jorden Looncandel, the elder and the second-term are both win-win and competitive.

As I said, I've never heard of competition, although I've never heard of co-prosperity.

Oh, well, you're not just me, you're not the same as me, you're the same age as the top riders. Just know one thing. The elder hasn't given up on his dream of a family.

The conversation I had with Telot Looncandel came to mind.

'It's a loss for him who hasn't given up his place as a housekeeper yet. He wants a picture of me and Joshua constantly checking each other and gnawing at each other and then breaking up together.’

Lynn Milcano was ostensibly a Jordanian man, though the inside was still unknown.

"So the elders who wanted to kill me would have asked outside forces to do so. If you're not the master, you're not likely to be able to face me. And your sister probably used Samil's information to identify it.”

"Hee, that's right. That's perfect. You're so smart."

Jonah cracked Jean's hair and said back.

"I won't tell you who the assassins are."

"Why?"

"If you play with me, I'll let you know. Youngest, it's been a really, really, really long time since we met and talked in person!"

It was my first time to be a jockey in almost two years.

Jean smiled at the horse.

"That's right. I missed you, sister. I received the letter and the green rose ring you left in my room last time. I woke up and saw it and felt good all day."

Jonah smiled, showing her white teeth. It was always strange to think that the person who could laugh so innocent was the world's best assassin.

"Proud!"

"I'm sorry I disappeared before I became a jockey without saying anything. I couldn't help it because it wasn't good."

"I'll give you a special understanding. So what shall we do now? Huh?"

"Let's go fill up for now. I couldn't eat anything in the woods.”

"Shall we play hide-and-seek first? Or do you want to play dagger?"

"What is dagger play?"

"A hundred steps apart and throwing daggers at each other once. To narrow down one step each time one avoids or blocks, and to lose the first stab.”

"I'll go for it."

"Yes, then let's play hand axe."

"What the hell is that?"

"Hand axes to each other's ears...….”

"No, it's explained. Sister, we used to have a lot of fun. Not such a bloody thing, like shopping or watching a play. We'll have a drink and talk."

"Jin."

Valeria sang Jean in a calm voice. At the same time, Jonah turned her head and looked at Valeria, and, yes, you were there. He looked like that.

"I'd better get going. I'll take this for preservation, so call me when you need it."

Valeria pointed to the body of a pro-Western manne wrapped in lobes with her fingers.

"Where are you going?"

Boom boom!

Suddenly, Jonah grabbed Valeria by the wrist.

"Play with me, too."

"Yona?"

Valeria's eyes are tilted again to the left.

Jin enjoyed seeing Valeria embarrassed one after another.

"And it's been bothering me for a while, Lyleen. What's your relationship with our youngest?”

"What are you... ..between?"”

"You're not a lover, are you?" What did you do in the woods, you guys?"

"No, there was work."

"Seeing that it's full of tears, did you have a good time and suddenly have a love fight? Youngest, you shouldn't make someone cry when you're in a relationship. And lilyn shouldn't make the youngest cry. It could really kill you.”

"You seem to have a misunderstanding, Jonah."

"All right? I'm really gonna kill you. Even if you're a benefactor of Samil. Hehehe."

It seemed meaningless to explain it further.

Ta-da!

Jonah spread her arms wide, twisting the waist of the two.

"Let's go!"

When Jean and Valeria came to their senses.

They had already left the Kiken Empire to enjoy the finest dishes in other cities, to shop, to rent a whole tavern and drink (Balleria only kept its place).

"Hehehehehe! It's more fun to play with the youngest than to kill people. It's a great drinker, isn't it?"

Throughout, Valeria seemed to be half fascinated by Jonah's hectic chatter and unexpected behavior, but from some point on, she often gave up laughing.

But once in a while, he gave out a hearty laugh. It's a day similar to normal peers, so to speak.

It was the first time since the gray owl mercenary corps was exterminated. In his previous life, he had never experienced it before he met Jin. To be exact, it was also a time when I refused to experience it.

"......so the moment that big guy turned around, he cut off his arm. I didn't scream, but my eyes almost popped out. Yes. Lailin, see you next time."

When the morning sun rose, Jonah spent Valeria explaining how she maimed her recent request, "The Giant."

Valeria had never said she would go first before the word 'see you next time,' but she looked calm and packed.

Looking at Valeria, who had been tormented by Jonah all night and walked rather with a weary body, Chin asked:

"Sometimes, isn't this okay?"

Turning Valeria made eye contact with Jean.

"Yes, you are. I'm going."

When Valeria left, Jonah began to shine her eyes again.

"Maknae, let's go too."

"Suddenly where?"

"True play."

"It was fake that you drank and played all night just now. I had no idea.”

From Yona, who raised the corners of her mouth, Chin somehow felt a sense of cooling her neck.

'What is it? Is it just me?

"Hehe, come with me. I'll tell you a lot of fun things.”

* * *

It wasn't just my feeling.

After leaving the tavern, Jin had to play with Jonah for two full days. Dagger play, hand ax game, all kinds of weird and terrible games.

'......I forgot who you were. I should've known when you asked me to play.’

When she was a backup rider, she sent sprayers to her visiting Samil in turn, which was just a game for her.

What would it be like now that he has become a jockey? Jean and Noona have really been through a few death throats in the last two days.

It was a bonus that he couldn't sleep for even a minute.

It was fun, baby! Let's hang out again when I get a vacation. Hehe.

Compared to Jean, who didn't get a single minute's sleep during the play, Jonah went back to Samil with a clear face as if she had just woken up from a sound sleep.

"Whoo......."

I felt a lot of weight. His face was white and he was so tired that he kept twitching around his eyes.

'It's a little annoying, but it's been a while since I trained properly. "I've had her unique life for two days, and I still have goose bumps on my back."

Unconsciously, I laughed through my lips.

If not for Jonah, no one will make such a strong life grow upon him until after he has left.

"Welcome, this is the central travel gate of the Varya. Please tell me where you're going."

"Hufester, Carlon, in the first class."

"Your ID has been verified. Have a nice trip."

The fake IDs used by the jockey are not a problem anywhere in the world.

Sitting buried in a chair in the first class, I closed my eyes. I felt like I had to sleep a little bit before the mobile door opened. Back in the Sword Garden, you won't have time to rest.

But unfortunately.

Jean could not keep her eyes open.

'I didn't know that the life you left behind would be so helpful.'

I didn't notice the moment I entered the room.

But sitting still. I could feel the life that Jonah left behind, and the "different" and ordinary kind of flesh piercing my whole body.

You wouldn't have felt it normally. With such a tired body. Also called mediocre, the creature surrounding the gin was extremely refined.

"The teleport will begin shortly. In the aftermath of teleportation, headaches and dizziness can be accompanied, so passengers...….”

"Announcer.

"Yes, sir?"

"Get out."

"What are you talking about all of a sudden?... please let me know if I offended you."

If you're not with the passengers, it means get out. Those are all the beasts that came to kill me from the Necropolis."
