## Summary

Janya tried to coerce  Mino into luring Jaehwan to Claire's pub. He do it by kidnapping Claire, and trapping everyone in the saloon while surrounding it with Golden Sky members. As another precaution, he enshrouded the area with silence magic to prevent Mino from calling for help.

Janya did this because as an Elder of Golden Sky Clan, his mission was to acquire the Stones of Forgotten Spirits from Jaehwan. Jaehwan came of his own volition and fought the Janya brothers, since he read their thoughts and knew they were in contact with a Nightmare, who would later be revealed as Sirwen Armelt.

Janya and his brothers couldn't handle their fight with Jaehwan, so they grabbed the kidnapped women and used them as shields. In response, Jaehwan used a Regular Stab to destroy the roof of Claire's saloon, thus destroying the silence barrier around it. Karlton Javier saw this disturbance and brought his squad in order to investigate. Once Karlton saw the extensive damage, he invoked Silver Bind and tried to arrest the Janya Brothers and Golden Sky members on the charges of illegal trespassing, destroying private property, and kidnapping.

Janya was the only one able to resist the skill; his brothers were bound. He convinced his siblings to use Black Cloud, a noxious gas that turns people into Dead Men/Undead. Janya bought time by pretending to surrender. Once he tricked Karlton, he released the Black Cloud and escaped with his brothers. They watched the saloon from afar, but Janmyung - the second oldest - noted how the younger brother inhaled some of the Black Cloud. Janya lamented, but stated that Janmang could survive if he only breathed a little bit.

The Janya Brothers rendezvoused with another Elder of Golden Sky Clan, Heuk Surlang, known as the Black Surlang. (Heuk Seollang in Webtoon translation.) Additionally, fifty Golden Sky members were brought. They fought Jaehwan when he emerged out of the saloon, but they were killed when Jaehwan unsheathed his sword from its scabbard and killed them with the blade.

Janya realized he was only fighting a scabbard. This led to the next scene; Jaehwan used his scabbard's natural skill, Garnak's Presence, to invoke fear and kill everyone. Janmyung and Janmang were killed with the other fifty members of Golden Sky Clan. Jaehwan stated that he'd spare Janya's life if he told Jaehwan where the Nightmare was. Janya laughed in response. Through his thoughts, he noted how he'd be killed by the Leader of Golden Sky Clan for his failure. At the end of the chapter, Janya swallows a Stone of Forgotten Spirit.
