“You’re not going to say you forgot, are you?”
Raon tapped Lars, who was floating on his shoulder.
– King Bon is the lord of anger who rules the demon world.
Blue cold air emanates from Ras. It was so cold that it chilled my bones.
-I have never told a lie since I came into existence.
Since coming into existence, it means that he has never told a lie.
-The king and you are bound by a contract called a bet. Even if you don’t like it, you’ll get over it, so don’t worry.
“That’s why I ask you to stop steaming.”
-Before that, let me ask you one question.
“what?”
-How did you overcome that pointy-eared guy’s spirit and how did you copy that arrogant guy’s martial arts skills?
Lars asked questions that were not at all unexpected.
“First, give me compensation. “That comes first.”
-Well, I understand.
As Las’s blue flame fluttered like a butterfly, a message appeared in the air.
[You have won the bet with .]
[Victory reward will be paid.]
[All abilities increase by 2 points.]
I bit my lip as the joy of my body surged as my abilities increased. However, the compensation is not over yet.
[One of the characteristics of is generated randomly.]
[ was selected.]
[The trait has been created.]
“A sense of folktale?”
Raon tilted his head when he saw the name of the trait.
-You have good qualities that don’t match your pettiness.
“What are abilities?”
-It is the ability to increase the range of senses. Since it is 1 star, the distance will increase by approximately 10%.
“10%… .”
This meant that if 10 meters could be grasped with the current sense of feeling, the range would be 11 meters.
It may not seem like a big deal now, but as the range of sensation increases, its utility will rapidly increase.
-In King Bon’s case, he was able to sense more than 10 times his original senses.
“okay?”
Now that I think about it, the expression ‘one-tone’ was added to . That meant that that trait also grew like a ring of fire.
“It’s okay.”
Raon nodded. Because he lived as an assassin, he valued sense over force. He said he did not envy any of the qualities, such as the increased range of his senses.
“But why the sense of a folktale?”
-It’s a preference. Be respectful.
“her.”
I like ice flower bracelets, and I also like the name Seolhwa. My senses were really poor.
-The bet with the main king is over… .
As Lars was about to approach, a new message came up.
[You have won your first bet with .]
[The title has been created.]
[As a result of the title’s effect, all abilities increase by 1 point.]
“uh?”
-this!
Lars couldn’t see the status window, but he could see the message, so he opened his mouth in surprise when he saw the contents.
-You rat! You’re taking away the King’s abilities again!
“I didn’t do it, the system you created is taking care of it. “Besides, compared to the abilities your body possesses, isn’t an ability score of 1 not even an eyelid?”
-Oh, of course!
“Then it doesn’t really matter.”
-That’s true, but… .
Lars rolled his eyes with an awkward expression and then sighed.
-Hehe, okay. done. Now it’s your turn. Tell me what you are.
“no.”
-what? What now… .
“I don’t like it.”
Raon shook his head with an expressionless expression as usual.
-Are you insulting the king? It definitely shows you your abilities… .
“I never said that. “First of all, I asked for compensation.”
-uh… .
Lars, who was recalling his memories, opened his mouth wide.
“Right? “I never said I would give you an answer.”
Raon smiled slightly.
‘I can’t tell you about reincarnation.’
To talk about what brought about the status of assassin Raon, we have to talk about reincarnation. You shouldn’t bring up reincarnation because you don’t know what Lars will do.
‘The same goes for the ring of fire.’
In addition to protecting and growing the body and mind, the ring of fire has a special ability to understand the flow of martial arts.
This included not only his own martial arts skills, but also the enemy’s martial skills, so he was able to imitate Burren’s martial arts skills in sparring.
Of course, it was possible because the strengthening effect of the status window and the achievement of Buren’s Fire Protection Fist were lower than the Ring of Fire.
Anyway, I had no intention of handing over information to Ras from the beginning.
‘Because he is the enemy.’
It seems like he’s gotten a little closer, but Lars is still targeting his body and soul. He must not hand over even the slightest information.
-Are you playing a trick on the King?
Ras could not hold back his anger and spewed out a cold flame. The pain felt as if tens of thousands of ice knives were piercing my skin.
‘But it’s bearable.’
I was fortunate to meet Ras after gaining water resistance. If Lass had no resistance or had the fire attribute, he would have collapsed long ago.
Raon smiled, suppressing the coldness that made Lars’ heart boil.
“You also have a low learning ability. “If you attack in this calm state, you will only lose.”
-Shut up!
Lars’ flame became even stronger. The cold seeps into my bones. My hands and feet were shaking because of the chill.
Hwaaa!
Perhaps because the cold coming from outside was so strong, even the cold stuck in the mana circuit came back to life, making it even more deadly.
“Whoa… .”
I slowly took a breath and activated the ring of fire. Little by little, the pain began to subside.
-You damn bastard! How on earth do you endure it!
“mentality.”
I responded lightly, but I was not fooled.
Even though it has fire ring and water resistance, it is difficult to endure. If I hadn’t had the experience of enduring hellish training in my previous life, I might have fainted.
As I was gritting my teeth and holding on with all my might, a blue window appeared in front of my eyes.
[You demonstrated extreme mental strength in the attack of .]
[Agility increases by 1 point.]
[Stamina increases by 1 point.]
When the message that my abilities had increased appeared, my mind and body became energized. The cold that was weighing down the mana circuit began to subside.
– Damn it!
Lars screamed and fell from his body. The anger was still there, but it seemed like he realized that it was taking away his own flesh.
-What on earth are you? There was no one like you in the human history that the King watched over!
“I do not know either.”
This is not a joke.
I didn’t know anything about why I was reincarnated, why I was born in Sieghart, or why I was connected to Ra’s.
-Do not underestimate the King. I will somehow reveal your identity and devour your body and soul!
“I kept saying it. If you can, do it.”
I smiled and sat down on the bed. The goose that lays the golden egg did another thing today.
“however… .”
Raon’s eyes looking out the window were cold, as if they were covered in frost.
“What is that?”
* * *
The heavy radio station where Karun Sieghardt resides. The room, which seemed to embody the word splendor, was filled with silence.
“eww… .”
A groan that he had been suppressing came out of the mouth of Burren Sieghardt, who had been standing at attention for nearly four hours already.
Only then did Karun, who was sitting at the desk, turn to him.
“Burren Sieghardt.”
“Yeah.”
After not saying a word for a long time, a thick, suppressed voice came out of Burren’s mouth.
“What did I tell you to do?”
“Su, you told me to take the position of chief trainee. And he told me not to lose to anyone!”
“okay. I didn’t expect much. “I told him to defeat the woman of the Slyon family, trample on Raon, and then raise his name to the top position.”
Karun’s eyes burned red.
“But you were defeated not by that woman, but by the son of a bastard who fell away from your direct lineage? “And in front of everyone?”
My heart seemed to be crushed by the low, cold voice that echoed through the room.
“How far do you want to humiliate me? Do you want to be like the third or fourth?”
“Oh, no!”
Buren trembled and shook his head. I didn’t want to end up like my two older brothers, whose names I don’t even call anymore.
“You already lost your first chance.”
Karun’s eyes showed no joy at seeing his son after a long time. I was filled with only anger and frustration.
“Oh, I know.”
Burren could not meet those eerie eyes, and just looked at his toes and chewed his lip.
“After completing the basic training, when the trainees graduate, their grades will be evaluated and the valedictorian will be selected again. “Take that seat.”
“yes… .”
Buren swallowed dry saliva and answered as if spitting out blood.
“If you want to live like Sieghardt’s direct descendant, don’t miss the last opportunity given to you.”
Karun waved his hand as if telling him to leave.
“Okay, thank you.”
Buren couldn’t even look at his father’s face, whom he had seen for the first time in six months. He left the room with his head down.
“shit!”
Burren, who came out of the heavy radio, screamed and hit the wall.
“Because of that damn guy… .”
My teeth are chattering. Because he had spent his entire life hearing only praise, his father’s scolding became even more severe.
I was especially angry that something like this had happened because of a bastard named Raon.
“Whoop!”
I sighed out the frustration that filled my chest, but my stomach didn’t ease at all. I walked aimlessly to change her mood.
“Why am I here… .”
When I came to my senses, I had already arrived at Training Center 5. The door was locked. I climbed over the wall and went inside.
“I knew it.”
Burren snorted. The exterior door was closed, but the indoor training room and lounge doors remained open.
“Stupid instructors.”
I pouted and headed to the break room. As she was about to close the open door, she saw a locker with Raon’s name on it.
“hmm.”
I opened Raon’s locker door, muttering that I was just looking. The inside was clean. There was nothing except the box underneath.
“What kind of box is this…” uh?”
Buren opened the box and his mouth widened.
“What, what! “The number of these shoes!”
Inside the box were training shoes with the soles completely touched or torn. And not just one or two pairs, but over ten pairs.
‘You wrote this in 6 months?’
I looked at the shoes in disbelief, but they were all the same size and shape. These were all Raon’s supplied shoes.
“her.”
Buren let out a laugh. Although I was supplied with training shoes like Raon, I only replaced them twice.
‘Does this make sense?’
He couldn’t believe that Raon changed his shoes more than 10 times while he changed them twice.
“crazy… .”
When I saw the shoes that looked like they had been worn for several years, I felt like I had been hit in the back of the head with a club. A shock even greater than when he was scolded by his father swept through his entire body.
‘I feel like I woke up from a dream.’
As my head became clear, as if I had been doused in cold water, I began to think of things I had been forced to ignore.
Raon came out to the training ground earlier than anyone else and entered later than anyone else.
Even though he was sweating coldly and emitting cold air from his mouth, he never once gave up on training.
After finishing my strength training at the indoor training center, I remembered the images of me running alone in the dark gymnasium.
‘While I was swinging my sword for show and resting at the dorm, he was exceeding his limits every day… .’
That was the reason why Raon’s spirit was superior to that of all the temporary trainees.
‘That really looks like Sieghart.’
In the 5th training camp, it was Raon who showed himself the most like a Sieghart swordsman.
‘And I, on the other hand… .’
He sarcastically mocked and mocked Raon, and even refused to accept the results in the exam and ended up losing in an ugly way.
“Off!”
My face turned red from embarrassment. I felt disgusted with myself for being blinded by jealousy and only doing dirty and dirty things.
Buren sat down in the empty lounge for a while and then looked up. Her green eyes were brighter than when she entered the gym.
“never… .”
What has already passed cannot be helped. It is important not to repeat the same thing in the future. That was Sieghart’s style, and it was an attitude that should be pursued even now.
“Whoa!”
Burren took a deep breath and emptied the stubbornness that had built up in his heart. His steps leaving the training ground were as light as Rimmer’s.
* * *
It was the second day since I returned to the annex and rested. Raon’s routine was the same as when he was at the training center.
I ran around the annex from early in the morning, and after breakfast, I strengthened my muscles with bodyweight exercises instead of using equipment.
Since I spent time with Sylvia yesterday, there was only one person to disturb me.
-Is it training again? It’s really boring. Try performing another trick for the king.
When I was trying to continue training, ignoring Ras’ generous gift, someone came.
“My name is Roen, the head butler of the House of Lords.”
He was a kind-looking old man with half of his head colored the color of clouds.
“The head of the family has called you.”
He bowed his head in a polite manner.
“Did you say it was a call? Why… .”
“This is to award a plaque of the same color.”
“hmm.”
Raon narrowed his eyes. He thought he would just send someone to beat him up, but he didn’t know he would call him directly.
“Huh!”
Sylvia, who was inside the building, jumped out the window and jumped out.
“Ro, Roen.”
“Silvia.”
The two of them knew each other, so they bowed their heads at the same time.
“Father. “No, the head of the family called you directly?”
“That’s right.”
“Hey, maybe… .”
“Nothing special will happen. “It’s literally just a ceremony.”
Roen smiled kindly, as if telling him not to worry.
“Raon… .”
“are you okay. I will be back.”
Raon dusted off the dust on his clothes and put on his coat.
“wait for a sec! “Change your clothes and go!”
“It’s okay just like this.”
Glenn is a natural warrior. If you make it known that she came while training, she won’t like it.
“Then let’s go.”
Roen took the lead with a grin, and Raon gave Silvia a glance and headed to the Gajujeon.
* * *
“… … .”
Raon looked up at Glenn sitting on the golden throne and his fingertips trembled.
As I was making eye contact with Glenn one-on-one in the throne room, which was spacious even with hundreds of people inside, my mouth went dry.
– Are you measuring that guy to be a little stronger? I want to stab out those red eyeballs.
Of course, Ras, who is completely out of his mind, is an exception.
“Even if I don’t like it, I have to keep my promise.”
Glenn said nothing unnecessary and gestured to Loen.
“yes.”
Roen nodded slightly and brought out a softly shining bronze-colored tile.
“thank you.”
Raon received a bronze-colored card from Roen’s hand. In the center of the card was a sword burning with flame, Sieghardt’s symbol.
“I award you a plaque of the same color. “You can return the bronze plaque and ask for something appropriate, or make a request.”
“Then can I tell you right now?”
Raon looked up at Glenn while clutching his hand. He has already thought about how he will use this card.
“… “Tell me.”
Glenn was silent for a moment, but nodded.
“Sylvia Sieghardt.”
“hmm?”
“What should I do to bring my mother back to her original position?”
Not only Roen, but also Glenn looked down at himself with his eyes wide open, as if he had not expected such words to come out.
“If you mean the original position, do you mean the direct descendant?”
“That’s right.”
Glenn closed his mouth. She scanned her entire body as if trying to find out her true intentions. She felt like her heart was breaking just by looking at him.
“It’s performance.”
“If you say performance… .”
“It is not impossible if I build a track record that not only I, but the entire family can recognize.”
“Then you’re saying it’s possible.”
“Yes.”
Glenn nodded. He continued speaking with his eyes a little brighter than before.
“But it’s close to impossible. “Getting recognition from various people is probably harder than getting a star in the sky.”
He curled the corners of his mouth as if snickering. It felt like I was betting that you would never achieve it.
-This is a rude guide. If the main king finds the main body, how dare he kill him within a few thousand!
Lars glared at Glenn with burning eyes. However, competing for thousands of sums meant that even Lass was a super strong player.
“Then that’s it.”
Raon returned the bronze plaque to Roen.
“thank you.”
Building performance is something I did like breathing in my previous life. I stood up, vowing to return Sylvia to her original place by completing any mission.
“for a moment.”
As I was about to leave, I heard Glenn’s voice from the podium.
“You haven’t told me your compensation yet.”
“yes?”
“You just asked a question. “That is something that can be said even without a paddle.”
When he looked back, he saw Glenn looking at him with cold eyes. However, something that couldn’t be explained in words seemed to have changed.
‘what?’
I never even thought Glenn would say something like that. I thought she would take the card by force, but she turned out to be unexpected.
“Say your wish.”
“… .”
Raon’s eyes lit up as he looked at the bronze plaque in Aroen’s hand.
‘The next wish has been decided.’
I’ve already thought about what I need after Sylvia’s question about her return.
‘Auror practice.’
The Ring of Fire is certainly an ancient practice, but it only trains the body and soul and does not create an Auror.
I needed an Auror technique that was superior to the Shadow Aura technique I had learned in my previous life.
“Auror training is required.”
“Auror practice? “This will be taught by instructors during basic training.”
That was right. The practice methods given in basic training are also middle-to-high level practice methods when viewed across the continent.
But it’s not possible at that level.
In order to restore Sylvia’s status and cut off Derus’ head, more practice is needed.
“We need a superior Auror training method than that. “I would like you to give me a practice method equivalent to a tile of the same level.”
“… … .”
Glenn closed his eyes. Although he continued to feel it, he expressed less emotion than the assassin himself. The nickname cold-blooded suited me very well.
Perfect!
When he snapped his fingers with his eyes closed, the floor of Gajujeon shook as if there had been an earthquake.
Coo coo coo coo!
Golden flames sprouted from the floor. In the flames that burned in a spiral, the circular bookshelf soared endlessly.
“This… .”
Raon widened his eyes. The bookshelf was so large that it reached the high ceiling of the throne room, and there were colorful books in each partition.
“It’s one of Sieghard’s bookshelf. “If you place your hand in the center, the book you need most right now will come down.”
“ah. All right.”
Calming my mind, I approached the bookshelf. When she looked up, her neck hurt and she lost count of the number of books.
‘It just needs to be better than the shadow practice.’
I placed my hand on the bookshelf, hoping to find an Auror practice that was superior to the Shadow Aura practice.
Wooooow!
The bookshelf vibrates. The books were shaking and shaking as if they were cold.
The bookshelf rotated as if caught in the wind, then stopped abruptly.
Paang!
The first book in the first compartment, which I couldn’t even see properly, came out of its own accord and opened.
Whoa!
It emits golden flames so huge that you can’t even open your eyes.
“What!”
Glenn Sieghardt, who was watching this, stood up, smashing the handle of the throne.
