Qwaul reflexively grabbed the machine, and Jin slightly dodged his touch and tilted his head.

"You shouldn't snatch someone else's belongings like that."

"How did you get it?!"

"Because I acquired it from Zipple."

"Hah! Zipple, those bastards! Did they let you take it?"

"You talk as if there was a reason it belonged to Zipple."

Qwaul had been reacting violently all this time, but the fact that his face was now red and blue as if he were about to explode was truly furious.

Even his eyes reddened quickly, and his hands and feet trembled.

"These... These bastards! How dare they deceive me...?"

"Did Zipple deceive you?"

Jin narrowed his eyes.

He needed to hear more of the story, but Qwaul's resentment towards Zipple was definitely advantageous for Jin.

"It's not from Zipple, it's mine!"

"You need to learn another lesson about handling possessions."

"Give it back to me."

"You probably don't think of Runcandel as a Family that acquires something and then easily gives it away."

It wasn't just a comment to provoke Qwaul.

The mechanical device and the blueprint of the battleship, how much sacrifice had Jin made in the Sota Desert to obtain these two items?

He had acquired them with the death of the Black Knight Jane.

For Jin, it was distasteful that Qwaul dared to claim ownership of an object in front of him.

It's hard to imagine the value of Qwaul, so Jin refrained from revealing his murderous intent.

If it had been anyone else, they would have been immediately accused of a crime.

"Fine, I admit it. However, I would like to know where and how you obtained that item."

"Why should I?"

"Did you say you wanted my ability?"

"That's another matter. If you want to hear the background, this time, try telling me something that captures my interest."

Qwaul gritted his teeth. The initiative had changed in an instant.

He had never before experienced a loss of control like this.

Powerful individuals, including Zipple, who accidentally discovered his abilities, had usually resorted to senseless threats and persuasion, attempting to manipulate him with empty promises.

As long as he had the ability as an engineer, Qwaul had always been the "strong one," except for this moment.

It seemed these things were more valuable to Qwaul than he had expected.

Jin's thoughts about Qwaul's desire as an engineer to complete his masterpiece turned out to be accurate.

Therefore, the acquisition was no different from the fact that it was already half-finished.

What remained to be seen was how cooperative Qwaul would be.

"...Jin Runcandel, you said it was a teleportation device, right? That item is not a teleportation device, but an instant summoning tool. It's completely different from teleportation."

"What's the difference?"

"Teleportation has weather limitations, like transfer gates, but this device doesn't have that, and it can transcend time and space."

Hearing Qwaul's response, Jin couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Jin didn't answer and looked at Qwaul's expression.

There seemed to be a burning desire in his dark eyes.

"Furthermore, my real name. That doesn't even suppose Kelliark could know it. Unless it's Record Magic, he'll never know. That person must have seen Ganesto's name on the device through Record Magic."

The fact that there is a survivor of Histor has been known among the major forces for a long time.

And the fact that he is with Jin has been noticed to some extent by the two major clans recently.

It was perhaps natural for Qwaul to make such an analogy.

"Are you going to say it's an exaggeration?"

"It depends on the reasons you think so."

"I've lived my whole life under the name Tingen Bauer. Until recently, I didn't know my real name, Qwaul Ganesto. After the world was dyed in chaos. Unless it's Record Magic, what else could have revealed it?".

Only a month ago, there was a problem with manipulating history in the name of "Ganesto".

The weakening of Zipple's power caused by Gliek was causing a chain reaction between Jin and Qwaul.

And neither Jin nor Qwaul knows it.

It's not the first time Zipple's history manipulation has gone wrong.

Even in the era when Qwaul was born, and during the lives of his other ancestors, there were times when the manipulation weakened.

In particular, Ganesto's history manipulation was often problematic.

"It's a shame you didn't know Kelliark didn't know your name. Yes, the Histor survivor is with me."

It wasn't a situation to continue hiding.

Jin continued to observe the desire reflected in Qwaul's eyes.

Qwaul is a descendant of Lokia Ganesto, and he is the world's best engineer.

And what he desired most was not wealth, power, or personal success, but to restore and complete technology.

Therefore, the ability to use Record Magic, which only Histor could use, was more essential for Qwaul than anything else.

"The conditions I was going to mention to leave the cabin were originally these. Firstly, you must own the machine. And secondly, recruit a person who can use Record Magic and make them my assistant. So I didn't expect anything from you because both seemed impossible."

Hiss, said Qwaul, lighting a cigarette.

"The first condition is already met, and the second depends on how closely related you are to the Record Magician. Is it possible?"

"I think it's possible if you are the assistant, not them."

"Well, title doesn't matter much. Anyway, once they confirm my abilities, the question is to help each other."

Jin thought Valeria would never do that, but nodded.

Rather, Jin imagined Qwaul volunteering as Valeria's assistant.

Qwaul reached out to Jin.

"There will be no greater luck than having me in your life, in your family, and throughout your faction."

Jin responded by taking his hand.

"I will serve you diligently in my own way."

"What do you mean 'in my own way'?"

"It means I welcome you to the Vamel Alliance."

Although Qwaul protested that he wasn't officially part of it yet, Jin effortlessly subdued him and threw him into the mouth of the Mortal Toad.
