Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3)
“Push! alert Keep pushing them back!”
He had known from the beginning that this was a dream, but it was far beyond anything Emil could have imagined.
It was, quite simply, a scene worthy of a dream.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
An intense light shone from the Knights’ Gate.
At the front, the knights of the North were driving the dead dragons backward.
“Ramund, damn it! amber Even after dying, are you still going to move like a snail?”
“That idiot never gets any better!”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
“You lot haven’t changed one bit either!”
How many times he had dreamed of this battlefield.
And even at that very moment, Bayezid’s Golden Generation continued pouring endlessly out of the Knights’ Gate.
How much he had longed for this scene.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
It was the advance of knights who feared nothing anymore, who had even transcended death itself.
“It was because you idiots charged in headfirst like that that you all died before I did!”
Before their overwhelming charge, the dark crimson tide collapsed without end.
Seeing his comrades fighting by his side once again, Ramund burst into hearty laughter.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
It was a vibration powerful enough to make the earth itself tremble.
Suddenly, a violent tremor shook the place.
However, their laughter did not last long.
Rumble…!
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
At Auguste’s urgent shout, Joseph looked up.
Hearing the ominous cracking echoing from every direction, the knights’ faces hardened.
“Sir Joseph! arch The nightmare is collapsing!”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
“It looks like Danesh has done something!”
Above their heads, the ceiling writhed grotesquely like the entrails of a serpent.
Auguste believed Danesh was closing the nightmare.
Enormous cracks spread across its surface where none had existed before.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
But beyond Joseph’s closed left eye, an entirely different scene unfolded.
[No. amateur That’s not it.]
After all, the door through which he had just escaped was crumbling into dust.
Joseph’s world was a world capable of distinguishing truth from falsehood.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
At the place where the nightmare had begun stood a man completely alone.
His closed eye pierced through the countless layers of that false nightmare and gazed upon the place where it had all begun.
[The dead dragon has been defeated by this era’s Swordmaster.]
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
Vlad’s appearance was entirely beyond his calculations.
[…Vlad. acoustic You’re still completely unpredictable.]
Seeing him wearing that same carefree expression as always, Joseph could not help but shake his head.
With the moonlight at his back, Vlad quietly examined Danesh’s severed head, which he held in one hand.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
After all, he was the knight who always found a new possibility.
And yet, Joseph was not surprised.
For Joseph, who had fought alongside him countless times, there was nothing unusual about such a situation.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
Watching Danesh’s mental world collapse without end, Agge shouted almost desperately.
Now that the master of the nightmare had disappeared, all that remained was to return the boy to the real world. All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com
“Mayor! antique What do we do now?! silence Everything is collapsing!”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
[If it’s collapsing, then we’ll simply open a path.]
But Joseph continued holding the banner firmly.
The dead dragons still struggled to cling to the boy’s ankles.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
Joseph looked at them with icy eyes, lowered the banner before him, and closed his left eye.
Creatures consumed solely by resentment and obsession, determined to hold back that young potential.
[Everyone connected to Vlad, in front of me! silence Everyone else, hold back the dead dragons!]
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
At Joseph’s command, the knights’ formation changed in an instant.
They filled the gap Ramund had left.
They protected Agge’s back as he ran to the front.
They opened the way for Gregory.

And with them all before him, Joseph moved the banner as though it were a brush painting a masterpiece.
[Open the gate, Sir Auguste!]
Soon, a new ancient-looking door began to appear before the knights.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
Amid the collapsing nightmare, Joseph’s world revealed its full majesty.
Boom!
Standing before that gate, Auguste took a deep breath and threw it wide open.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
Having fulfilled their duty to the very end, the knights were absorbed once more into the Knights’ Gate.
With a deafening roar, the knights burst through it, hoisted Emil onto their shoulders, and began to run.
“Where are we?!”
At the same moment, the deepest layer of the nightmare completely collapsed.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
The moment he did, he was left utterly speechless.
Hearing Agge’s shout, Emil looked around.
Now, however, they stood upon a vast emerald-green prairie.
Only moments ago they had been in the dark, damp basement of a mansion.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
“…What is all this?”
Following the memory opened by Auguste, they had arrived at Aushrin, the Forest of the Elves.
Before the majestic sight of the World Tree, which he was seeing for the first time in his life, Emil could not even close his mouth.
At the center of that prairie stood an enormous tree.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
The knights ran behind Joseph, who carried the banner.
“…Spirits?”
[Keep running!]
As they carried him on their shoulders past the World Tree, Emil heard faint sobbing.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
And climbing toward them, drool dripping from its jaws, was the fiercest of all dragons.
— Now, Vlad!
This was Auguste’s world, recreated within Joseph’s memories.
Tiny spirits were crying atop the World Tree’s crown.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
The elderly Auguste fell from the World Tree.
“…Is that Dad?”
And once again, two knights charged straight at Nidhogg.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
His armor was shattered.
His sword was broken.
And taking advantage of the opening he had created, a young blond man charged directly toward Nidhogg.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
It was not a perfect attack.
— Roooar!
Yet Vlad plunged through that narrow opening and managed to drive a dagger straight into the dragon’s eye.
And his body was covered in wounds.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
Nor was it elegant.
But the tip of his weapon had reached its target.
It was an utterly reckless assault.
And the dragon’s roar of agony was undeniable proof of it.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
Joseph waved the banner, and another gate appeared.
[The next gate!]
This time, even Emil recognized it.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
Following Joseph’s command, Ramund threw the gate wide open.
[Sir Ramund!]
It was the very same gate he had seen in the Sturma mansion.
Its decorations were simple and sturdy, a style found only in the North.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
As the knights stood lined up on either side, a young man stared at them with wide eyes.
It was Joseph’s old office.
On the other side appeared a scene from long ago.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
As though he wanted to say that someone who knew nothing had no right to utter those words.
“The children would have died if we hadn’t intervened.”
The young man who had risen to his feet was silently furious.
And the elderly Ramund, seated in his chair, watched the young man with genuine interest.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
He was still immature, a bundle of unrefined passion.
The squire who had protected those children’s last breath met the old knight’s gaze.
“I would have done the same. armor After all, someone had to protect the children.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
Watching that impulsive young man, the old knight slowly rose from his seat and smiled.

A young squire proudly insisting that the old man’s words were wrong.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
When they opened it, a campfire appeared.
There stood Squire Vlad, camping, with Knight Gregory sitting beside him.
[The next gate!]
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
Crushed by reality after facing enemies far too powerful and a wall that seemed impossible to overcome.
There was my father when he was still a boy, consumed by doubt.
While stirring the fire with a stick, Vlad spoke with a dejected expression.
“There are too many extraordinary people in this world, Sir Gregory.” Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
As the knights continued running, the figures of my father as a boy and Gregory gradually faded into the distance.
Sitting beside him, Knight Gregory spoke calmly.
“In the end, what matters is enduring.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
“You simply have to keep burning. amber As long as you don’t go out, you can always be rekindled.”
[Sir Jorge!]
But even as they receded, Gregory’s words etched themselves deeply into Emil’s heart.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
“…Understood, Jorge.”
“Always carry this dagger with you.”
Another Vlad appeared before the fading image of Vlad.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
There was my father, being acknowledged by someone for the first time in his life.
“I’m riding a horse! acid Aaah!”
[Open the gate, quickly!]
There was also my father, overflowing with happiness as he rode atop Noir.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
My father when he was happy.
My father when he became enraged.
My father when he suffered.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
Creak.
But in the end, the name of my father, who always overcame every obstacle, was Vlad of Soara.
Each time a new gate opened, Vlad was different.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
Every one of those scenes preserved within the knights’ memories engraved themselves deeply into young Emil’s heart.
Vlad of the alleys became Vlad of Soara.
And Vlad of Soara ultimately became a Swordmaster.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
[Don’t stop! artist Keep running!]
And it was through those points of contact that our world continued expanding.
All worlds were connected.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
The worlds of the knights connected to him continued pulling the boy ever closer to reality.
Now that the world of the nightmare had collapsed, the man closest to the exit was Vlad of Soara.
“Sir Joseph! athlete What do we do now?”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
There was no one left there.
[Your efforts have borne fruit. portal Thank you, everyone.]
When they finally reached the first nightmare.
The only thing remaining where Vlad had stood was Danesh’s severed head.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
The knights no longer had another world to connect to.
Only one final step remained before returning to reality.
Their footsteps finally came to a halt.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
Yet Joseph’s banner did not stop.
[It seems I’ll have to open the final gate myself.]
But Vlad of Soara had already returned to the real world.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
“Come here, Emil. harbor Let me hold you once.”
They needed someone else’s.
Because he knew that to truly return to reality, they no longer needed Vlad’s name.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
“…Grandpa.”
“I’m glad to see you’re safe. audit I was very worried.”
The moment Joseph drew the final gate, Ramund pulled Emil into his arms.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
But Ramund made no attempt to comfort him.
As though he knew that, more than any words, the warmth he could give him at that moment was what truly mattered, he simply continued holding him tightly until the very end.
Curled up against Ramund’s chest, Emil burst into tears.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
Joseph took Emil by the shoulders and gently pulled him away from Ramund.
“No matter what people say, just keep walking your own path. aluminum Being the son of a Swordmaster doesn’t matter in the slightest. audit Do you understand?”
Tears blurred his vision, and the old man’s figure began to fade.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
“Grandpa!”
The fireplace disappeared.
Then Emil broke down into uncontrollable sobs.
The candles went out.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
Among them, the man wearing the ram-horned helmet waved his hand.
“Give my regards to your father!”
The carpet beneath his feet crumbled away.
And the knights who had returned began to fade.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
But Emil had no time to dwell on that farewell.
With Ramund’s words, the final gate of the nightmare closed shut.
“Where are we?”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
Joseph did not answer.
[…]
But even in silence, Emil knew exactly where they were.
“Squire Rutiger of Bayezid! zenith I request permission to become a knight!”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
A place only knights were permitted to enter.
And it was also the clearest memory Joseph could recall. Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com.
It was the deepest chamber of the Sturma mansion.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
“Enter.”
[Go in, Emil. echo Go to that man.]
And on the other side, within the sanctuary of knights, a middle-aged man awaited him.
Standing before the slowly opening gate was the young Rutiger.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
His upright posture made it clear that he was the master of that land.
That man resembled the young Rutiger.
And he also resembled the present-day Joseph.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
The final thread still linking the real world had to pass from Vlad, through Joseph, and finally reach Peter.
“Let Squire Rutiger of Bayezid kneel before me!”
His name was Peter Bayezid, the former head of House Bayezid.
Joseph knew perfectly well who the man connecting reality and the nightmare was.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
As the young man proudly walked between the rows of knights, Joseph gently pushed Emil forward.
The Peter from that memory called Rutiger forward.
“……”
Following the command, Rutiger stepped ahead.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
But despite Joseph’s urging, Emil did not move immediately.
“Joseph wanted to become a knight too?”
It was the Knights’ Gate that his father had been granted permission to enter.
Because even though that world of memories was slowly fading away, there was still something he could see. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.

But at the end of the hallway, the young black-haired Joseph stood with his head lowered, hiding his expression.
Seeing him, Emil spoke.
The gate his older brother was crossing.
Standing before a gate he could never cross, he silently concealed his sorrow.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
“Now you really are a knight.”
The black-haired boy in that memory was far too distant to hear him.
So Emil decided to say it to the young black-haired man standing right in front of him.
“Then I’m glad.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
A child calling him a knight.
“And one of the greatest knights there is.”
“Joseph, you are without a doubt a knight.”

Emil’s words, spoken before the Knights’ Gate within that memory, left Joseph completely frozen.
Emil began walking through the gate that was slowly closing.
“Now I truly believe you’re Joseph Bayezid.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
“And I also believe Joseph Bayezid is a knight among knights.”
He ran toward my father, who was waiting in the distance within that memory.
As the opening grew narrower and narrower, the boy broke into a run.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
But before the now-shut gate, the boy within that memory stopped crying.
The moment Emil finished speaking, the Knights’ Gate closed.
“Even if no one else believes it, I’ll prove it!”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
Because the boy in that memory had finally lifted his head.
The young Joseph had finally heard the words he had always longed to hear.
When he turned his head toward the end of the hallway, he was smiling.
And now, he was smiling back at him.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
“…I’ll… prove it.”
***
Dawn was beginning to break over the harbor.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
A faint murmur reached his ears.
“Hm?”
At the top of the great iron tower, Peter cradled the unconscious Emil in his arms.
Broken battleships floated in Trinova Harbor, and exhausted dwarves sighed everywhere.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
“I’ll… prove it.”
The boy, slowly returning to reality, murmured beside Peter’s ear.
The voice blended with the gentle sound of the waves.
“Joseph Bayezid… is… a knight.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
But Peter heard it with perfect clarity.
The more Emil returned to reality, the clearer his words became.
It was a voice so faint it could almost have been carried away by the wind.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
But those tears did not belong to the boy.
“Joseph… Bayezid… is a knight among knights.”
They flowed down his face, ran along his chin, and finally fell onto the man’s knees.
Warm tears rolled down Emil’s cheeks.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
Every time Joseph’s name left the boy’s lips, fresh tears welled up in Peter’s eyes.
Clink.
“Ah…”
They were the tears of a father who had finally heard the words he had spent his entire life longing to hear.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
Together with those tears filled with regret, the coin he had kept hidden in his clothes fell to the ground.
The knight who had rescued the boy from the nightmare.
The very moment Peter heard his name, the last Coin of Honor he possessed began to disappear.
Joseph Bayezid.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
I grant you your honorable retirement.
Father of Joseph Bayezid, a knight among knights.
Peter Bayezid.
“My son…”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
But Peter, without even realizing he had already retired, could only hold the slowly awakening boy even tighter.
“My son… one more time…”
Thanks to Emil’s testimony, that father was finally granted permission to retire.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
The light of dawn emerged on the horizon, illuminated Leviathan’s corpse, and reached the gigantic Deathworm standing over it.
“…What… did… you say… about my son?”
Behind Peter, who kept his head bowed, the sun began to rise.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
But the knight who had finally earned his retirement had no desire to watch the sunrise.
The boy, having awakened from the nightmare, slowly opened his eyes.
He only wanted to hear his son’s name one more time.
And what had guided him back to reality.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 316: In My Father’s Name (3) by Indra Translations.
This was absolutely peak. avalanche These last two chapters were just peak I honestly don’t have the words to express it as the translator who translated my very first series which was this one several years ago.
Had been his father’s name.
