“Please.”
Glenn’s chin went up about a finger. Her narrowed eyes were sharp, as if trying to reveal the true intention of her lie mer.
“I know you’ve only been doing crazy things these days, so I don’t want to hear it.”
“I’m not always joking around.”
Rimmer lifted his head and smiled slightly. A serious light shimmered from the arc-shaped eyes.
“Tell me first.”
“It’s about Raon.”
“Raon… .”
As soon as the name Raon was mentioned, Glenn’s back, which was leaning on the throne, rose slightly.
“Raon’s level of force is expert, top level. Since he is a guy who goes beyond the original level, he is strong enough to one-sidedly beat up other top-level players. “Unless he’s a master, there’s no one who can beat him right now.”
“Know.”
Glenn nodded slowly. Without realizing it, her slightly raised lips were like that of her grandfather who was proud of his grandchild.
“So I tell you. “How about leaving a bundle to Raon?”
“Dan?”
“Raon’s strength is a little different than that of other Danju, but if you take charge of Danju and complete various missions, you will be able to catch up quickly.”
“Hmm… .”
Glenn closed his eyes as if trying to organize his thoughts. His eyes, which opened a moment later, were cold and sunken.
“Not possible.”
“May I ask why?”
“The primary, major, and sub-owners must be at least a master because they must prepare for emergency situations. I don’t know if it’s a part-time owner. “You can’t make a brat who hasn’t even become a master yet the leader of Sieghardt.”
He shook his head resolutely. However, deep within it was a warm voice of concern for the grandchild.
“Besides, that child has never stood alone without someone’s protection. There was you here, and Lord Milland in Habun Castle. Wouldn’t it be great if you gradually gained experience as an assistant manager? Giving him a sober position is unreasonable, both from a powerless and empirical perspective.”
“As expected.”
Rimmer licked his lips and shrugged his shoulders.
“Well, what should I do? I’m worried about Raon… .”
“Are you worried about Raon?”
When Raon said he was worried, Glenn put his chin forward.
“sure. “I’m worried!”
Rimmer held back his laughter and looked out the window with a heavy sigh.
“Hasn’t everyone in Sieghart already reached out to get Raon? “Irond and Serena even visited Raon in person.”
“Isn’t that a bad thing?”
“Depending on the person, it may not be good.”
“hmm?”
“You know Raon is an innocent guy because he grew up in an annex, right?”
“yes.”
Glenn nodded quickly.
“He doesn’t know about the cold political battles going on in this main building. Although I lived in Habun Castle for a year, the people there don’t often fight internally because of external enemies. In other words, Raon is a blank slate when it comes to internal political fights within the organization.”
Rimmer spread his arms wide as if controlling a puppet with strings.
“Can people who become the head of the family because they want to be the head of the family or climb to a high place be able to lead Raon well? “It may lead you in the wrong direction or give you wrong training or assignments.”
Rimmer muttered that he couldn’t sleep because he was so worried.
“It certainly could be… .”
Roen nodded slowly as if he agreed with those words.
“you’re right. Roen. There is a high possibility that large or single owners will use Raon for their own goals and growth. You don’t know what people do. So, in times like this, it would be great to have someone who can properly lead Raon without being greedy for success.”
“Hmm… .”
“Is there someone with a great personality, excellent military skills, experience reaching high levels, and even a handsome face? “There must be one, right?”
“… … .”
Glenn looked down at Rimmer silently.
“I understand now. “Is it you, not Raon, who wanted to become sober?”
“Me? How can I aim for sobriety? A great personality, great strength, experience reaching heights, and a handsome face? uh? wait for a sec! Is that me? It was here! Sobriety was mine!”
Rimmer laughed and clapped his hands.
“Ha, you really are crazy… .”
Glenn covered his forehead with his hand as if he had a headache.
“What are you aiming for? Rimer.”
“I just… .”
“Be honest.”
Glenn’s voice became as sharp as a forged blade. If she said something wrong, she would get cut like this.
“It’s a little embarrassing, but I’ll tell you the truth. “I took an oath.”
“vow?”
“The day Raon alone blocked the path of the Glorious Demon and saved the trainees. I swore that I would make that child a king.”
Rimmer’s deep, sparkling green eyes reflected his firm will.
“From the child’s back, the head of the family. No, I saw a completed throne that was taller than the head of the family. “Just as I made you king and protected you, this time I want to place that child on top.”
“is it… .”
Glenn nodded as if he understood now.
“Everything is good. I understand your sincerity, and I also understand that Raon may grow up incorrectly. but… .”
His eyes once again gave off a cold light.
“I wonder if you, who injured your danjeon, are qualified to become sober.”
“He’s good-looking, smart, good-looking, good at raising kids, handsome, and good at gambling?”
“Instead of such useless things, we should see the extent of your power.”
“Then let’s try it here.”
Rimmer grinned and grabbed the sword soldier.
“Confidence is good.”
Glenn snapped his fingers. A smile appeared as if it was fun.
“come. “Show everything about yourself.”
“I’m still leaving.”
Rimmer drew his sword. He pointed at the sky with his blade extending out like a flash of light, and pointed at the ground with his two upright fingers.
“The Sword Realm Appearance.”
That day, sound disappeared from the throne room.
***
“It’s LaTein of the sword belt.”
A green-haired man with an ordinary height, an ordinary appearance, and even an ordinary way of speaking grinned.
However, the force is unusual. The energy filled with the Danjeon was seething like lava. Like Irond, Isa was also a monster who climbed over the wall.
“I can’t tell what your personality is, so I’ll be honest. The Jeongeomdae wants you. “If you come here, I will do my best to raise you.”
“What does it mean to raise you?”
“That’s literally it. Whether it’s through force, mental strength, or personal connections, it can create the position you want. “I will invest everything I can.”
Ratain smiled lightly and said he could help in every way. The atmosphere itself was light like Rimmer, but it seemed like Lee was acting out that lightness rather than actually having a light disposition.
“So what do I have to give you?”
“… … .”
Ratain’s smile hardened slightly.
“Nothing is free in this world. “There must be a reason why you want me so much.”
“You know how the world goes. So you’re saying he’s not just a talented kid? “I like it better.”
The voice also changed. The voice that used to convey cheerfulness began to sound distorted.
“Of course, we also want something from you, but we can’t tell you that now. If you are curious, come to Jeongeomdae. “I promise it’s not something you’ll hate.”
With his original light expression and voice, he took turns holding out the small box he had brought with him.
“It’s a small gift. “If you come to the jeongeomdae, we will set you up from head to toe with equipment that cannot be compared to anything like this.”
He left those words and left the annex.
-He pretends to exist, but he is empty inside. There’s nothing to see.
Lars snorted, calling him a sloppy bastard.
‘What kind of person isn’t rude to you?’
Raon looked at Ratain leaving the garden and then turned around. Gifts filled his room and even the hallway of his annex.
“It’s a bit more than I thought.”
After hearing Rimmer and Buren’s words, I thought a certain number of people would come, but I didn’t expect there to be this many people.
Not only armed groups, but also intelligence groups, administrative groups, and even defense law books that rarely appear were involved. There were so many gifts that the annex was about to burst.
“Uhuhuhu!”
“Ho ho ho!”
I looked up at the sound of laughter that clearly revealed joy. Sylvia and Helen were organizing gifts with smiles on their faces.
“In life, things like this happen.”
“This is the first time so many guests have come to the annex.”
“It’s all thanks to Raon.”
“So this is how you benefit your children?”
“It’s your blessing. luck.”
Sylvia and Helen. No, it wasn’t just those two, the maids were also enjoying this situation. The annex, which was usually ignored and reviled, became the center of attention, and it seemed like Raon was happy that it was the one who achieved it.
-Your mouth is very irritated.
‘If they like it, I like it too.’
It’s not a lie. When Sylvia, Helen, and her maids were happy, she was happy and happy too. I don’t know the exact reason, but my emotions just moved that way, and I followed along.
-If you like something so trivial, you don’t want to grow up. This king is unwavering under any circumstances… .
‘That’s nonsense.’
-What nonsense! Is there anyone as cold-hearted as King Bon? The power you use isn’t cold!
‘That’s the biggest mystery.’
I don’t know how a hot-tempered person who gets caught at the slightest provocation ended up using cold energy.
Although its nature is gluttonous and hot-tempered, the energy it uses is cold, so it has no such distortions.
-You cheeky. A guy who can’t even stand up in front of the real king… .
‘Then bring the body.’
-Keuuugh… .
Raon teased Lars about this, then went into the room and approached the wall where gifts were piled up.
‘Let’s see what’s there.’
I opened the gift in the room. Most of them were items used in battle, such as gloves, boots, belts, sword threads, or straps to tie swordsmen.
After roughly organizing my things, I looked at the three boxes on the desk. It was a gift from the great lords whom I had met in person.
‘This… .’
First, I opened the small but luxurious box that Irond sent. There was a thin glove inside, and even when seen with the naked eye, the quality was different from the others.
I tried on gloves. It was light and clung to her hand as if she had nothing on it. The feeling of holding the sword was similar to that of a bare hand, but the sword was so strong that it could not be cut easily.
“I didn’t come here in person for no reason.”
When I saw that he was sending these items just as gifts, it seemed like he really wanted to take me away.
“This way… .”
This time, I opened the box Serena gave me. These are boots. It contained brown leather boots, but I could hardly feel their weight.
“and… .”
After wearing the boots, my body became lighter, as if my weight had been reduced, and I felt like I could jump a little higher and farther. This was also unusual equipment.
Lastly, I opened the box Ratain gave me. There was a gold ring in it, so I put it on my finger.
‘Is it strengthening muscles…? .’
It’s not a huge difference, but it definitely felt like it was stronger. It seemed to be a ring with a strength-enhancing spell.
“Not bad.”
Obviously, because they are lenders, the gifts are not at an ordinary level. As I was about to check the condition of the equipment, I heard three knocks on the door.
“come in.”
The door opened without an answer, and Judiel came in and bowed her head.
“We have been researching groups that will appear at the selection ceremony.”
She said that and held out a booklet. It seemed as if it had been made by hand, just like before.
“thank you.”
Raon nodded and looked through the booklet. True to her word, most of the organizations she belonged to in the family were listed. There was quite a bit of information that she didn’t know, so she found it interesting.
“I found out while researching the selective diet that there is something that seems like a superstition.”
“Superstition?”
“yes. It is said that without exception, the prosecutor chosen by the heads of all armed groups participating in the selection ceremony became the head of the family. In fact, it says that the current head of the family was also chosen by all organizations.”
“Go… .”
Since my goal wasn’t to become the head of the family, I just thought it was an interesting story and nodded.
“Judiel. What do you think? “Which do you think is best?”
After reading the booklet, I looked at Judiel.
“First of all, our choices are limited. It is difficult to join a direct lineage or collateral group that follows a direct lineage. We need to find other options.”
“It’s us… .”
“Is there a problem?”
“no.”
Raon shook his head. Judiel, who couldn’t focus on anything else, only used the word “us” to show a little pride.
“Actually, there is no need to tell you how great the power of Sieghardt’s bloodline is. Most of the top positions in armed groups are held by immediate descendants. But there are a few places that are just as good.”
Judiel opened the center part of the booklet.
“First, the White Regiment led by Irond. They are mainly comprised of practical swordsmen who roam the battlefield as if they were at home, and go on many missions. It is said that Irond’s strength is comparable to even his immediate descendants.”
She said this was okay and turned the pages.
“The second is the public prosecutor’s office headed by Serena, who visited yesterday. Sharp and sharp swordsmanship is mainly used. As she is greedy, she receives many missions and requests, increasing her reputation day by day. The Jeongeomdae team that came today was a bit calculated, but once they started, they handled all missions without failure. and… .”
Judiel moved the booklet around and recited the recommended organizations one by one. However, in the end, the place worth going was the group led by Irond, Serena, and Latain.
“Instructor Rimer told me to go to a place with fewer people, so I have more opportunities to excel.”
Raon relayed what Rimmer said. Of course, I excluded all the nonsense about being good-looking or being good at gambling.
“That is also true. Small organizations provide support to many locations and can participate in most of the unit’s missions, so there are many opportunities to contribute. Of course, it must be that dangerous and busy.”
“Right.”
In order to make Sylvia a direct descendant, you must accumulate as many achievements as possible. Rather than going to a big place and not being able to move as I want, I thought it would be better to go to a small place and participate in many missions and provide support to other organizations.
“Then, shall we take a closer look at small places?”
“No, there is no need to find out.”
Raon put down the booklet and shook his head.
“The place to go is decided.”
The gambler promoted it so blatantly that I couldn’t not know.
“Thankfully, I received an abundance of gifts.”
Raon smiled as he looked at the piled up gifts.
***
On the day of the selection ceremony.
An unprecedented number of people gathered at the main event hall. Even those who were off-duty or on leave came to the training hall without taking a break and sat with their butts pressed against the crowded seats.
The reason is simple.
This is because the group of trainees from the 5th training center, who showed growth that was different from that of ordinary trainees, was of unprecedented interest within Sieghardt.
especially. Raon Sieghardt, the chief of the monster riders.
In Habun Castle, he earned the nickname Young Sword Demon and Hwabyeok, and as soon as he returned, he destroyed Jungmujeon. He was attracting everyone’s attention to the extent that gambling was made on where he would go.
To be honest, half of the people gathered in the main training hall were just there to see Raon’s selection ceremony.
When the audience seats are so full that they are about to burst, people come up to the top of the stage in the dance hall.
The swordsmen, clad in powerful energy and eerie majesty, had patterns of different shapes and colors engraved on their chests.
Minority or majority. The leaders of the armed group called Sieghardt’s True Power began to sit one after another on the high platform.
Not only Irond and Serena, who went to see Raon directly, but also direct Jeonju such as Jungmujeon, Jinmujeon, and Seonghyeonjeon took their seats on the chairs set up on the podium.
They exchanged only a few greetings, as if to keep each other in check, and then looked down at the training hall below.
“Everyone is targeting Raon, right?”
As the Great Lord and Danju were organizing their thoughts about who to take, a cheerful voice was heard. This is LaTein, the leader of the sword. Everyone’s eyes on the podium were focused on him.
“Because I came to see it in person. It was even more amazing. His strength was so weak that it felt like he had not mastered martial arts, but his internal level of completion was already close to that of a master. The child will become stronger. “I understand why not only the head of the family but also the elders are interested.”
The lenders from the immediate family frowned as if they were uncomfortable, but the lenders from outside nodded in agreement.
“But that child I…” Ah, today’s hero is coming in.”
Latain stopped talking and pointed to the swordsmen of Training Center 5 coming through the door. They wore Sieghardt’s badge on their dark red robes and walked one by one to the center of the training hall.
At the end was Raon. He was dressed in black and red robes with gold threads, and his red eyes shining in the sunlight were like a painting.
“It’s Raon!”
“Raon Sieghardt.”
“What kind of guy’s face… .”
“Do you feel like you’ve become stronger?”
“No way again?”
“It’s not impossible if you’re 17 years old and receiving regular weekly wages.”
The great lords admired Raon’s appearance and were astonished by the eerie predictions he wielded, like the sword. Their eyes were bright blue, as if they were targeting prey with different meanings.
***
After entering the main training hall, Raon headed to the center of the training hall with other prosecutors.
“Raon!”
“young master!”
“Raon!”
I smiled and waved at Sylvia and the maids who were cheering and calling my name at the far right, and then stood in front of the prosecutors.
“La, Raon. “Have you decided?”
Dorian trembled with his spread fingers.
“The decision is made by them, not us.”
Raon pointed to Danju and Daeju looking down from the podium.
“But I guess you’ve made up your mind.”
“Roughly.”
“where are you?”
“It’s not there.”
“yes?”
At those words, not only Dorian but also Runan, Marta, and Buren, who were listening intently, flinched in surprise.
“doesn’t exist?”
“What are you talking about! “They’re all here now!”
“okay. The heads of armed groups are all here, except for Moon Ha-jeon, who is outside! “You’re not planning to go into administration, are you?”
No three people. All the prosecutors came to the side and asked where they were going.
“What are you thinking!”
“What kind of crazy thing are you going to do again?”
“Let’s go normally.”
“Don’t worry, it’s not me who’s going crazy, it’s that lazy person who is going to do it.”
Raon calmed down the rushing prosecutors and laughed.
“A lazy person? Instructor Rimer?”
“Why that gambler?”
“If you wait, something fun happens… hmm!”
Just as I was about to give a slight hint, a terrifying energy began to surge from behind. You can tell without looking back. This is the absolute strength of the owner of this family, the King of North Korea, Glenn Sieghart. I felt goosebumps goosebumps at his strength, which felt stronger as he grew.
“Sieghardt’s True Sky! “The King of North Korea, Glenn Sieghart, is entering!”
“Meet the matriarch!”
At the shout of Cheongeomdae, everyone in the training hall knelt down and bowed their heads.
Jeez.
Glenn ascended to the center of the leader’s hall, suppressing the huge voice that resonated throughout the training hall with one step, and sat down on the golden throne.
“Everyone stand up.”
“thank you!”
Even the owners, who had not said a word until now, shouted their thanks in loud voices, as if they were back when they were newbies.
“Ah, then, from now on, the selection ceremony for the 5 training hall graduates… .”
“for a moment.”
As the host was about to announce the start of the selection ceremony, Glenn raised his hand.
“There’s still one guy. No, not one person came.”
“yes? uh? “All 43 graduates came.”
The host counted the numbers himself and said there was nothing wrong.
“It’s not that way, it’s this way.”
Glenn is above the podium, not below. He pointed to where Daeju and Danju were.
“yes? There are no problems with the numbers over there either… .”
“Oh, sorry, it’s my seat.”
As the host was checking the documents in confusion, a green gale rose above the wall on the left. A tall man with flowing red hair lightly kicked off the wall and climbed onto the podium.
“Rimer!”
“dare!”
“Why are you coming here!”
“Now this is a place where only Danju and Daeju can come!”
Karun, Balder and other direct lineage lords frowned as if to kill.
“know. “That’s why I came.”
Rimmer leisurely tapped his foot and continued speaking.
“From now on, please call me Danju Limer of the Gwangpungdan, not Limer.”
“omg!”
“Are you all sober?”
“You’re sober?”
Everyone in the great training hall widened their eyes in confusion at his declaration-like words.
‘That person is late even on days like this.’
However, Raon chuckled as if he knew. Now that everyone has gathered, the real selection ceremony has begun.
