Chapter 878
## Chapter 878
**January 4th, 1804**
Two days have passed since the end of the first battle. However, even now, fractures continue to form throughout the human world, and each faction engages in daily battles, fighting against the demons of the True Demon World.
And this morning, Orgal arrived with Grenil and around three hundred warships.
“I thought you had come to start a war, Orgal.”
Jin pointed towards the fleet that filled the sky beyond.
[A war in this situation? What a boring joke.]
The reason why Orgal brought the fleet was clear.
The defensive wall.
They intended to join forces with the Vamel Alliance and their defensive wall, centered on the Golden Ship, formed in the sea.
-[Even without forming a temporary alliance, if the Vamel Alliance needs support in their fight against the True Demon World, we will not hesitate to provide all kinds of assistance.]
-Without any cost?
-[That’s right. Whether it’s information about the True Demon World or troops. We will support anything.]
Jin recalled the conversation he had with Orgal a few days ago.
“I don’t remember requesting support first. You said you came here to help with the defensive wall… Kinzelo, are you better than I thought? I heard you were having trouble clearing the fractures.”
[Well, I managed to bring the fleet because I’m still in one piece. Don’t think too much about it.]
“I appreciate it, but I’m just expressing some concern.”
Ultimately, the biggest enemy was Zipple, followed by Kinzelo.
The war against the forces of the True Demon World was inevitable and had already begun. Therefore, for the Vamel Alliance, the best outcome was either the complete annihilation of the True Demon World forces along with the other enemies, or to inflict a significant blow on them.
‘Did some particularly strong entities among the Kinzelo demons join the interior? Or is it some other factor?… It seems that Kinzelo still has some power remaining. However, I don’t have much time to investigate why Kinzelo has regained its composure. With the chaos caused by the True Demon World, there’s not much room for that.’
It wasn’t entirely unexpected. In Jin’s opinion, Kinzelo had revealed many aspects, but they were still shrouded in mystery.
“How did you know I was trying to build a defensive wall?”
[There’s only one way to minimize civilian casualties, and that’s to build the defensive wall. I assumed you would naturally think of establishing the defensive wall. Besides, our Kinzelo also needs a defensive wall.]
“Do you sometimes care about the lives of ordinary people?”
[Not all demons and beastmen are combat personnel. Any group would face destruction if they lose their territory and their people. Are we any different?]
Jin nodded in agreement.
“That’s why you must have worked hard to recruit members since the days when you were known as a third-rate terrorist organization. Okay, I’ll accept it. Discuss the fleet deployment with the commanders of the defensive wall.”
[Sure. By the way, things got pretty chaotic from the start. I never expected you to head straight for the main base.]
“I was curious about that demon called Paellito Belgasyum.”
[Both of you were able to return without significant injuries because he wasn’t there. Oh, Murakan will have to rest for a while, though.]
“Seems like you know everything.”
[I remember the years of Murakan’s heyday. Even though Sakiel used Zito’s flesh, and you still weren’t hurt, it could be possible because he forcibly recreated that era. It’s not a big weakness compared to what I’ve been saying all this time.]
“Ah, that black mass was Zito’s flesh, then. I suspected it was something closely related to Zito.”
[Since Sakiel consumed the flesh, Zito permanently lost that level of power. It’s a drop in the bucket, but it will accumulate over time. Zito is already somewhat weakened due to Ayula’s actions.]
Orgal added that it’s crucial to weaken Zito as much as possible before Zito fully manifests in the human world.
[A complete Zito is invincible. Even if he recovers about 80% of his power, he will be almost invincible. Around 50% of his power, and there’s a chance that even the surface forces might be able to deal with him. So, while the Eye of Zito that the Holy Kingdom has is kept, it’s better to drain the flesh that he distributed among the high-ranking demons.]
“How much do you think a single piece of flesh will represent Zito’s power?”
[It could vary depending on the size. What you guys disposed of this time is probably around 1%.]
Jin reflected on the recent battle with Sakiel.
‘Sakiel had no choice but to use that flesh to defend herself this time, but if it had been used to attack… very few individuals could handle it. However, now that it’s clear that Zito will be permanently weakened, it’s worth eliminating him.’
From the beginning, Ayula’s main goal was to give Zito an “irreversible wound.” Ayula also had the same opinion as Orgal about decreasing Zito’s power.
“It’s not even 10%, but only 1%, but it’s like coming back with a decent gain.”
[True. But if you plan to break into the coastal bases like that again, I’d like to dissuade you.]
“Why?”
[The coastal bases have summoned Demon Kings from the True Demon World. There are about five to ten of them, and each is on par with Sakiel Grosch. They all possess Zito’s flesh, so even you and Murakan might have difficulty returning unscathed.]
Breaking in to eliminate several pieces of flesh simultaneously would be foolish. If several pieces of flesh were used at once, even the top-tier superhuman would face the risk of death, and the Demon Kings’ battle power was also a concern. The fundamental tactic for Zito’s “permanent damage” was to face them one by one.
“Good information.”
[Would you like another piece of good information?]
“Sure.”
[Elona Zipple. She is currently in a considerably injured state.]
“What did you say?”
Jin’s pupils dilated. Since the beginning of the war, the informants that the Alliance had placed within the Federation had been unable to gather accurate information.
Zipple was not easy to approach because she was constantly on edge due to dealing with the fractures formed throughout the Federation. Among them, Elona Zipple was especially difficult to approach.
[Ragal Fun. He’s known as the Poison King in the Demon world. He was recently promoted from commander to Demon King, it seems he encountered Elona.]
“Does this Ragal have combat strength at the level of a Genesis Knight?”
[No, he’s strong, but not at that level.]
“But how… Ah, poison. Does he have a special poison that can threaten a Genesis Knight?”
[His poison managed to work, so you could say yes. Elona Zipple faced the wide-ranging poison that Ragal Fun released for a mass slaughter. She tried to stop it alone and got injured. In other words, he used hostages to harm Elona.]
“Elona Zipple defended the hostages…?”
[Although Elona Zipple is injured, you might not be able to face Zipple at this time. But it’s good to make Ragal Fun’s presence known. Also, the fact that Elona Zipple has weaknesses.]
In Jin’s opinion, fighting while protecting hostages was not the way of “Beradin Roto.”
-The records left behind by Elona Zipple are quite hopeful. Upon awakening, Elona showed an awareness of avoiding deaths as much as possible and experienced confusion about the purpose of her existence.
-What’s even stranger is that Elona Zipple’s history had been erased until now. Zipple must have manipulated the history about her, so maybe Elona was his responsibility. There’s no way a proud magical clan would erase their Genesis Magician from history.
The words of Valeria, analyzing Elona’s records after her awakening from the Hidden Palace Seal.
‘Could it be that Elona Zipple is not under Zipple’s complete control, as I speculated back then? If that’s the case… Elona might not be an enemy; she could still be an ally. Maybe she could even become the key to bringing Beradin back.’
Thinking of his friend Beradin, a bitter feeling arose within Jin. Whether it was the True Demon World or the human world, a day would come when they would finally meet.
Until that day came, all he felt was the desire to bring him back to how he used to be.
‘Anyway, Orgal provided some valuable information.’
However, there was something strange.
‘But how did Orgal find out about this information? Even Sir Owal and Elder Sister Yona couldn’t get close to Elona at all.’
Jin made eye contact with Orgal.
“How did you know? This isn’t something you can guess like the state of the defensive wall or Murakan’s condition. It’s something that can only be known through direct observation.”
[I came here to provide you with information that could be useful for us too, not just to scrape the bottom of the barrel. Well, I should be going now. There’s no new information about Lokia Ganesto, so we’ll talk about that later.]
As Orgal turned to leave, Jin was left in thought. It seemed he had caught a glimpse of Kinzelo’s true power after a long time.
“…Recently, we only saw how they were defeated by the Red Legend Tribe and the True Demon World. We should be more careful with Kinzelo.”
“The information about Elona was probably obtained through something more than an exchange, Sir.”
“I think the same. The fact that they have some breathing room despite the True Demon World invasion… Let’s gradually find out what tricks they have up their sleeves. Jet, contact Nameless and request that they send Elder Sister Yona to Kinzelo’s side. Since we can’t get through Elona’s side anyway, it’s better to investigate Kinzelo’s side.”
“Yes, my lord!”
“One thing for sure is that there’s something in Kinzelo that shouldn’t be revealed to the True Demon World right now.”
At Jin’s words, his companions nodded in agreement.
“Something that shouldn’t be revealed?”
“Yes, that’s right. So, they must be deliberately trying to cause trouble for our defensive wall. Let’s wait for Elder Sister Yona to find out what it is. The rest of us should focus on draining Zito’s flesh as much as possible.”
The method for draining Zito’s flesh to the maximum.
The obvious way was a “preemptive strike.”
“It was getting annoying having to always sit and then run out to stop their fractures. Among the top combat personnel dedicated to closing the fractures, some will be directed to attack the completed fortress of the True Demon World that has been summoned from the fractures.”
