-You can’t even properly understand the other person’s capabilities… .
Lars frowned as if he was dumbfounded.
-It looks like the sword stuck in your head has expanded into two.
The guy clicked his tongue, saying he had challenged someone he couldn’t win.
Raon ignored Lars’ mockery and strengthened the hand holding the Jecheon Sword.
Who doesn’t know that?
Of course I know that I can’t win against Roman. What you are doing now is gambling. Everyone was flipping a coin to see who would survive safely.
I let out a deep, thick breath in my lungs and looked at Roman. His eyes turned this way for the first time.
‘You’re looking at my sword.’
He was not looking at himself, who had asked to fight, but at Glacia’s cold energy residing in the Jecheon Sword. It seemed like they were trying to figure out Cheongwoo, who had defeated all the warriors of the North and South Korea alliance a little while ago.
‘It’s as expected.’
Looking at the Auror in this situation, it was clear that he was, as rumored, a person crazy about martial arts. The chance of survival has increased by more than 30%.
“Did you put an aura in the sword and stun them?”
Roman narrowed his eyes as he looked at the stunned enemies with foam in their mouths.
“To manipulate the auror and shake the nervous system in that split second when the sound of friction and the sound of the sword is heard. If you had wanted to, you would have killed him right away.”
He immediately figured out Cheongwoo’s operating method and nodded as if he was interested.
“I’ve seen a lot of attacks with musical instruments, but this is the first time I’ve touched a person’s nervous system with a sword. Creative, yet effective. However, the method is that difficult. Even if I wanted to follow it, it would be difficult.”
Roman chuckled as he touched the red ax blade.
“It feels like my eyes are opening. Now that I’ve seen something good, I’ll consider that cheeky comment I made a moment ago to have come out wrong. “Go away.”
He looked away with a satisfied smile.
“It didn’t come out wrong. “I will be your opponent.”
Raon shook his head resolutely.
Coo!
Roman cut the floor with the ax he was holding. An unbelievable pressure was conveyed just by focusing on the gaze.
“You really want to deal with me?”
“Yes.”
Raon resonated the ring of fire. By raising the level of the soul Ras had grown, he pushed away Roman’s energy wave.
“It’s pretty good. It’s much better than what I heard. but… .”
Roman nodded slowly and then gained momentum. A weight that was different from before was pressing down on my whole body.
“Go out and know your subject.”
Red anger bloomed in his eyes, perhaps because he interfered with the battle with Rimmer.
“You bastard can’t even block this blow.”
Roman lifts the axe. A sword sword sprouted in front of the red ax blade, creating a powerful air current.
“It is the last warning. “Get back before I rip your head off.”
Despite the powerful warning, Raon did not back down or lower his sword.
“Raon.”
Rimmer, who was watching to see what would happen, blocked the way.
“That’s right. “He’s not the guy you’re dealing with yet.”
“you’re right. “You can’t win ‘now.’”
Raon nodded and smiled slightly.
“now? So do you think you can win in the future? “He really is a kid who doesn’t know the subject.”
Roman snorted and lowered the axe. The gathered Kang Hwan dispersed like smoke. It seemed like he was completely ignoring Raon.
“It looks like you want to fight the strong martial arts school.”
Raon turned his chin to meet Roman’s sneer-filled eyes.
“Of course. The stronger you are, the better. “It’s even more welcome if it’s enough to cut my head off.”
Roman smiled brightly as if those words were sincere. After hearing those words, I was convinced that the rumor that the reason he was in the North-South alliance was because of sparring with the North-South alliance was true.
If we go our way, we can end this fight.
“Then I’ll show you. “I will become stronger than you and come back with a sword to cut off your head.”
With those words, Raon’s spirit rose like a flame. A spirit that could not be surpassed by Roman or Rimmer wriggled throughout his body.
“It turned hard. What good is it if I come when I die… .”
“3 years.”
Raon raised his left hand and spread his fingers.
“Within three years, I will kill you with martial arts that will shock you.”
At the mention of three years, silence fell on the deck.
“Puhahahaha!”
Rimmer burst into laughter in a serious mood.
“yes. “For Raon, three years is enough.”
He nodded, saying it was possible.
“It seems that Gwangpungdan only has crazy people, as its name suggests.”
Roman frowned. With a bored expression on her face, she gained tremendous momentum.
“Does the Grand Master look funny because he became a Master at a young age?”
The black aura burning above the ax trembled as if it were about to explode.
“Reaching Grand Master has nothing to do with the age at which you become a Master. If you don’t achieve enlightenment, you may not be able to reach that state even if it takes a lifetime. Discussing a level that has not yet been reached… .”
“Are you scared?”
Raon laughed coldly.
“You said you wanted to die because of your strong martial arts skills, but are you afraid of what will happen in three years?”
“This crazy guy… .”
“Three years is more than enough time to cut off your head with a satisfactory level of martial arts.”
“good night! Let’s say something like that could happen. “But why should I let you go?”
Roman showed his teeth and smiled. It was a cruel smile, as if looking at an animal.
“If I kill everyone here except you, wouldn’t your desire for revenge make you stronger?”
He raised the ax as if threatening, and created a strong ring with the concentrated aura.
“Humans demonstrate great power when they have a desire for revenge. If what you say is true, then all I have to do is kill everyone here and save you.”
Roman lifted his chin as if he had realized what everyone was thinking.
“What are you misunderstanding?”
Raon curled the corner of his mouth as he watched Kang-hwan shaking in front of the axe.
“If you fight here, you too will die.”
“What crazy talk… .”
“You probably felt it too. Danju and you are the same as each other. “If Danju and I join in defeating Lecter while Danju blocks you, you won’t survive.”
“Do you think that’s possible?”
“A lot of people will die. The owner or all of the members could die. But you all die too. “I will cut off your head with a very simple knife, not like the martial arts martial arts that I like so much.”
Roman and Lecter’s expressions hardened at the words being spoken so calmly as if it had already been accomplished.
“Lecter. “What do you think of that guy’s words?”
Roman asked without even looking at Lecter.
“Well, I think it’s worth it.”
Lecter nodded slowly.
“what?”
“You may not know this, but the reason Raon Sieghardt’s name spread throughout the continent is because he grew up by always defeating those who were stronger than him. “When I was an expert, I once defeated the master, Sado.”
He smiled slightly and continued.
“It is clear that I am at a higher level than Raon, but considering how well he was even after holding the tiller and the martial arts skills he showed just a moment ago, it is clear that he has a hidden trick. “If Gwangpungdan joins us, there’s a pretty high chance I’ll lose.”
Lecter calmly spoke of the possibility of his defeat.
“Tsk.”
Roman clicked his tongue briefly. He seemed to be thinking similarly to Lecter.
“I fucking begged for my life once… .”
“What are you misunderstanding? I am not begging or asking you for a favor. “I’m making a suggestion.”
Raon clenched his fist. A request is a hand extended on one’s knees, and an offer is a hand offered on equal footing. Never stand in a low position.
“I wonder if I will die miserably in a joint attack here. “You can choose whether you will die three years from now with a degree of martial arts that surpasses yours.”
“Tsk! Hahahaha!”
Roman burst into laughter while holding his forehead. She laughed maniacally for a while and then she slowly lowered her head.
“What is the name of Muhak, who caused the sword?”
“Cheongwoo.”
“Blue Vira. okay. It definitely sounded like rain. “It was clean and quiet.”
He closed his eyes for a moment, as if trying to recall the sound, and then opened them.
“I could feel your temperament through that martial arts. “Did you make it yourself?”
Raon didn’t answer.
“The reason your bravado doesn’t sound like a lie is because of that uneducated person called Cheongwoo. “You can’t help but be excited because you have revealed a mystery that no one has ever seen before.”
Roman nodded and put the ax back.
“good night. “I accept your ‘offer’.”
It went according to plan, but Raon did not relax. Because Roman’s words aren’t over yet.
“However, if this is an ugly lie just to get over this situation, cancel it now. As soon as I get back, I will spread the news to the entire continent that I have decided to fight with you three years from now.”
“I don’t lie like you.”
Raon shook his head.
“In Sieghardt’s name. No, I swear in the name of Raon Sieghart of the Sulhwa Sword Association. “Three years later, we will fight a duel where Sieghard’s land meets the Ravel River.”
“I like reading other people’s heartbeats.”
Roman chuckled and hit his left chest.
“The sound of your heart is strangely calm. “It’s funny and exciting to think that you can actually surpass me in three years.”
He saw Rimmer smiling next to him.
“Sieghart’s lightsaber. “This time, my life was saved thanks to my subordinates.”
“Are your ears clogged? “You said you were the one who saved Raon’s life.”
Rimmer chuckled.
“What do you think? “Do you really think that guy can surpass me in three years?”
“What can I say?”
He waved his hand, saying it was natural.
“That guy is my student and subordinate. “In three years, you and I will be looking down from above.”
“This is my first time seeing Cheongchuleoram in person.”
Roman chuckled and put the ax on his shoulder.
“Raon Sieghardt. I’m looking forward to 3 years from now. “By then, please complete Cheongwoo and come back.”
He grinned, kicked off the deck, and climbed into the dark. After a while, the bandits came down the rope and took away the unconscious warriors.
“I’m glad it ended well.”
Lecter, who was watching this, approached and laughed.
“Why did you help us?”
Raon looked at Lecter with wary eyes. If he had said he would fight until the end, it wouldn’t have ended this easily.
“I thought it would be fun.”
“fun?”
“okay. “I was curious to see where you would rise in three years.”
He grinned, saying he wanted to see that future.
“hmm… .”
Raon narrowed his eyes.
‘I don’t know.’
Unlike the uneducated Roman, Lecter’s inner thoughts were not well understood. I had no idea what he was thinking or what his intentions were.
“Ah, but don’t be mistaken. “Because this matter has not gone away.”
“What does that mean?”
“We weren’t looking for Baekchang, we were going to the dungeon and we happened to meet you.”
“Dungeon?”
“I heard that a famous wizard’s dungeon was discovered in the Norris area, so I stopped by on my way there.”
Lecter mumbled various names as if he was confused about the wizard’s name.
“ah! “It’s Lohengrin!”
“Lohengrin… .”
I’ve heard of it. He lived in the same era as Merlin, the Witch of Betrayal, and was a wizard whose name remained in history for his great talent not only in magic, but also in astrology and alchemy.
“okay. I happened to see you while visiting the wizard’s dungeon. Of course, if the whole story you told is told, the North and South Alliance will not touch you, but one person is different.”
“One?”
“There is an old monster who is an elder of the clan and Tiller’s grandfather. In fact, it was because of his influence that Tiller became Maengju’s disciple.”
Lechler’s smiling expression hardened.
“The man might move, so be careful.”
“Why are you telling me this?”
“It’s no fun if you die before three years have passed.”
He smiled that light smile again.
“Lecter! “If you’re not going to come, I’m leaving it behind!”
“Ah, I get it!”
At the sound of Roman’s voice heard from above, Lecter urgently kicked the ground and climbed up to the evil cloud.
“Go back to Meng!”
“uh? “Aren’t you going to the dungeon?”
“I got excited.”
Roman looked down from the deck of Bad Luck.
“We have new food, so get ready to chew.”
He gave a cool smile and turned around.
Wooooow!
The bad luck left, making a loud sound like the first time I saw it.
“Whoa… .”
Only after the appearance of the evil cloud disappeared did Rimmer release the Sword Realm and sigh. He stumbled for a moment, but soon regained his balance.
“Are you okay?”
“of course.”
He waved his hand as if it was no big deal.
“Is this really okay?”
“You don’t know me? It’s me. Sieghart’s lightsaber! Mr. Rimer! “Even if I had fought that ax murderer, I would have won.”
“Well, I guess so.”
I was reassured by Rimmer’s usual voice. He smiled and put his Jecheon sword into its scabbard.
“Good job.”
As I was about to look at the Gwangpungdan, Rimmer came up and placed his hand on my head.
“Danju?”
“If we had fought like that, like you said, everyone would have died. I was also late in making judgments due to the blood rushing to my head. “You saved everyone.”
He smiled and pointed behind him. Gwangpungdan and the village people were standing blankly looking this way.
“I was just doing my job as an assistant manager.”
Gratitude and joy seemed to shine in everyone’s eyes. I was somewhat embarrassed and lowered my head.
“But are you really confident?”
“Myself?”
“Confidence in defeating Roman within 3 years.”
“of course.”
Raon nodded calmly. With the generous Demon King, there was a possibility that he could become a Grand Master sooner than 3 years.
-hmm? Why do my ears itch?
Lars said it was strange and picked his ear.
‘It’s my mood.’
* * *
Raon stood at the upper reaches of the Gazelle River and lowered his gaze.
The chief of the Cheonglu tribe raises the receiving stone and chants a spell that resembles the sound of a mountain bird. A strange pattern was engraved on the receiving seat, and the white energy inside began to rotate.
“Kruk.”
As he nodded and entered the Gazelle River, other Cheonglu tribe members followed him, reciting the spell he had memorized.
Chiiik!
The moment the receiving stone touched the river water, a blue light emerged from the pattern engraved on the surface. The chief continued to recite the spell and completely submerged the receiving stone into the river water.
Wooooow!
The flickering light from the reception area spreads along the flow of the river. The light that started from that small bead had already spread throughout the river.
Hwaaaah!
When the Cheonglu chieftain and the Cheonglu tribe uttered the word Solido for the last time, the light in the reception area became so dark that it was difficult to even open the eyes.
When I frowned at the cold light, I could hear the clear sound of the river flowing as if my ears had been opened.
“ah!”
When I slowly open my eyes, I see the river. What caught my eye was a river so clear that I could not believe it was the same place as the turbid river just moments before. It was so clean that even the grains of sand on the floor could be counted.
‘It’s just like I saw it in my previous life.’
When I looked at the clear river water, which contrasted with the muddy, dark water, something bloomed in my heart.
“This is the Gazelle River?”
“I’ve never seen a river this clear.”
“It was true that it was the clearest on the continent!”
The Gwangpungdan prosecutors gaped as they looked at the clear Gazelle River. Even though he had heard that it was sunny, he had no idea it would be this clear.
“Wow!”
“haha! This is the Gazelle River! cancer!”
“You’re back! “I’m back!”
“Ha, finally… .”
The villagers had tears in their eyes with smiles on their faces as they looked at the Gazelle River reflected inside.
“Soo, I connected the reception area to the river. “Now it will always be sunny like before.”
Garam came back after reciting the spell and scratched his cheek.
“But Garam.”
Raon saw not the clear river water, but the Garam and Cheonglu tribes.
“Are you really okay? “A lot is known about your species.”
Although he did not tell Roman and his enemies, the secret of the Sosu-seok and the Cheonglu tribe was known to many people. I was surprised that they chose to continue living here.
“huh. I was worried too, but the chief said it was a man. the reason is… .”
Garam paused for a moment and then pointed his finger at Raon.
“It’s because of Raon.”
“me?”
“huh. Because they explain that you are the chief who protects this place. They said it was a trustworthy species and that it was a man. My, my… .”
“my?”
“I told him he was my friend, and he told me to trust him more… .”
The guy lowered his head, his face turning red as if he was embarrassed.
“Is that so?”
Raon smiled slightly and looked at the Cheonglu tribe chief. He put his hands together and bowed his head. He seemed to have seen and followed people’s manners. He greeted me face to face.
“Then you will have a lot to do in the future.”
“huh? I?”
“You are the only being who can speak both the Qinglu language and human language. “It means that it can become a conduit that connects people and the Cheonglu tribe.”
“ah… .”
Garam’s eyes widened.
“What you did before cannot be undone. “Some people in your tribe might resent you.”
“Yes… .”
Garam’s shoulders trembled as if that was true.
“But you can’t continue to live with your head filled with guilt. “You will lead the way so that the Qingru people can live a better life by coexisting with humans.”
“Passage… .”
“From today, the Gazelle River and all villages along the river will belong to Sieghardt. Because no one will touch it. “Don’t worry, find a way for everyone to live happily.”
“huh!”
Garam nodded, answering vigorously for the first time since they met.
“Karruk!”
“ah!”
At the shout of the Cheongru tribe chief, Garam glanced behind him.
“I need to get a seat. long time.”
“When you’re done, come to the village.”
“huh.”
Garam smiled slightly and went into the water with the other Cheonglu tribe. Even though the water inside was clear and visible, they all disappeared in an instant. That also seemed to be a spell.
Raon looked at the spot where the Cheongru tribe disappeared for a while and then turned his back.
“Let’s go back too.”
He approached Gwangpungdan with a smile similar to the one Garam showed.
* * *
“Danju.”
Raon stuck next to Rimmer on the way to the accommodation.
“Are you sure you’re okay?”
“I said it’s okay. “You saw me get rid of that light axe.”
Rimmer waved his hand as if telling him not to worry. I checked his condition by feeling. He didn’t seem to have any major problems. However, although his expression was the same as usual, it was strangely ominous.
“Please at least eat this.”
Raon took out one of the internal injury medicines he had received from the saint from Dorian’s stomach pocket.
“What is this?”
“It’s medicine for internal injuries.”
“Would you like to use it?”
“It’s medicine, so it must be used.”
“Then I won’t eat it…” .”
“Be loud and take it!”
He forced internal injury medicine into Rimmer’s mouth as he shook his head and made him swallow it.
“Don’t wander around needlessly, just go in and do the exercises.”
“Ugh, that’s dirty writing. “Do you have any candy?”
“Oh please!”
“Oh, you devil… .”
Rimmer frowned and waved his hand.
“Everyone in the Gwangpungdan worked hard. Rest today and come back tomorrow… .”
“I’ll clean it up, so you can go in and rest.”
“i get it. okay.”
He chuckled and went into the dorm first.
“Well, you worked hard today. “Even if it is a minor injury, it will spread if left untreated, so make sure the injured person gets proper treatment before resting.”
“yes!”
Since this was an order given by Raon as the assistant leader, everyone responded loudly. Everyone had smiles on their faces as the mission was completed without anyone dying.
“Then rest.”
After giving instructions, I looked at the room Rimmer entered for a moment and then turned my back. As I was about to go into the room to heal my internal wounds, I heard Lars grunting.
– Damn it. I’ll be there soon. It will come. There’s no way it won’t come… .
‘What is coming?’
Raon tilted his head as he looked at Ras, who had a frown on his face. The guy seemed to be overcome by fear, and he also seemed angry.
-You don’t know?
‘What are you talking about. ‘Who is coming?’
I remembered what Lecter said a moment ago, and my tension rose.
-A stupid person who just does what he is told without thinking will soon come… .
As soon as the words were finished, a message popped up in front of my eyes.
[Victory against someone stronger than you… .]
[The achievement of rises… .]
[I invented a new sword technique… .]
Several messages rose up one after another, blocking my view.
Raon opened his mouth. Now I see that Lars was afraid of this message coming.
-I knew it would be like this!
Lars shouted as he looked at the message.
-I thought you would raise everything without being flexible!
“her… .”
Ras now not only gives you ability points, but also gives you a notification when they will be given out.
‘I made a really good nickname.’
No one in the world can beat the word ‘Las’ who gives generously.
‘With this guy, he will easily become a grand master within 3 years.’
-I can’t live like this! I can’t live like this!
Raon smiled as he saw Lars struggling and screaming.
‘Please continue to take good care of me in the future.’
