The emcee, who was watching, came up to the sparring room and bowed his head.
“All six emperor duel sparring has ended.”
He cleared his throat, cleared his throat, and pointed his finger at the sky.
“The warrior standing at the top of a bloody, fierce master-level duel is Raon Sieghardt, the youngest participant in the competition! “Sulhwa Sword Association Raon Sieghart wins the championship!”
As the host shouted at the top of his lungs, the entire sparring hall shook.
“Wow!”
“Raon! Raon! Raon!”
“To destroy all the twelve provinces on the continent… .”
“Let’s not forget Matisse and Garona.”
“Come to think of it, I was the youngest. “This kid, now in his twenties, has defeated all the famous masters!”
“I saw something truly absurd. “I will never forget it for the rest of my life.”
The audience shouted Raon’s name so loudly that it felt like a scream.
“Now that I think about it, the expert class winner is also Sieghardt. Rachalgum Martha Sieghart!”
“The only ones that come to mind are Sieghardt kids.”
“I see. From the Whirlwind Sword to the Blue Moon Sword.”
“Do all talented people only go to Sieghardt?”
“I thought it was just the King of North Extermination, but that wasn’t the case. “It’s harder underneath!”
The audience cheered by shouting out the names of not only Raon, but also Marta, Runan, and Buren, who had performed well in the expert level competition.
Raon looked around the audience, listening to the majestic shouts.
‘You’ve changed.’
When I first came here, no one in the audience cheered for Sieghardt.
In the expert class, Princess Jaina and Prince Greer were the favorites, and in the master class, Borini Keaton, Garona, and Cadiz were the favorites. There were only a handful of people who thought Sieghardt would win.
“Sieghart!”
“Sieghart!”
However, in the sparring hall where all the duels had ended, only Sieghart’s name was being spread.
‘That’s fun.’
My emotions boil over at the fact that I have influenced all the people who had been ignoring and being indifferent. It was a different feeling from saving others and receiving praise.
“Raon. are you okay?”
Runaan suddenly approached and lowered his eyebrows. I was surprised that you worried about me before congratulating me on winning.
“Just right.”
Although he was on the verge of death just a moment ago, the pain of internal injuries and trauma was greatly reduced when he saw Derus Robert’s distorted expression and heard the audience’s cheers. It felt like an awakening, but that was enough for now.
“Gwae, are you okay?”
Marta frowned as she looked at the wound on her shoulder.
“huh. “I can hold out until the awards ceremony.”
You can’t faint in such a fun situation.
The winner receives a gift directly from the heads of the Six Emperors at the award ceremony. He couldn’t miss the opportunity to mock Delus Robert one more time.
“Raon. “Now we have to hold an awards ceremony, can you hold out?”
The host came over and whispered quietly.
“If you’re having a hard time, hold the awards ceremony later without an audience… .”
“no.”
Raon shook his head gently.
“It’s okay to do it now. “I can’t put it off when you’re shouting my name like that.”
He smiled slightly, pointing to the audience members who were still chanting the name Raon.
“ah… .”
The host’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“Thank you!”
This time, he wasn’t acting, he was just speaking honestly, and his hands were shaking with an expression of emotion.
“Raon! “You are such a disgusting person!”
Buren pursed his lips and came over to me and hugged me. She sniffled slightly, as if he was impressed as well.
“But where is this person again?”
Martha frowned and looked around.
“There were two winners in Dan, so where did Dan Ju end up?”
“I know… .”
“Ugh… .”
Gwangpungdan frowned as he looked around to find Rimmer.
“I am rich! “He is truly super rich!”
As Raon turned his gaze to follow them, a man’s voice with a cracked throat was heard from the audience on the right.
‘There it is.’
I laughed out loud, thinking it was still the same. Because of that human, the image of elves was becoming increasingly negative.
“Lord Budan.”
Dorian came to the side and gestured.
“It’s a shame to go up to the podium in that condition, so change your clothes first.”
“hmm… .”
Raon checked his condition. His uniform was all torn, and it was stained with Cadiz’s and his own blood, so it was no exaggeration to say that he was a zombie.
“That would be better.”
Since it would be a while until the awards ceremony took place, I thought it would be okay to change clothes.
Raon went downstairs with Dorian and entered the waiting room.
“What would you like me to give you?”
Dorian put his hand into his stomach pocket and took out various types of clothing one after another. Various types of robes and uniforms soon filled the table.
“Why do you have a dress?”
Raon frowned when she saw the dress stuck in the middle.
“Well, this place isn’t all organized.”
Dorian laughed and put the dress back into his stomach pocket.
-Ask that guy if he has mint chocolate ice cream.
‘… … .’
I didn’t ask because I thought it was real.
“I’ll take this.”
Raon chose the least flashy black suit among the formal attire.
“Thank you for your thoughts.”
“no.”
Dorian shook his head quickly.
“Both the team leader and the first team leader won and made Sieghardt’s name known, but I did nothing. “We have to do something like this.”
He smiled awkwardly and started putting the clothes back into his stomach pocket.
“No.”
Raon took off his torn uniform and closed his eyes.
“We did it.”
“yes?”
“It wasn’t me or Martha who did it, it was what we did together.”
He raised his finger and pointed to the ceiling of the waiting room. The waiting room was shaking because of the crowd shouting for Sieghardt.
“It is called that because everyone in the Gwangpungdan fought with all their might. “If I were alone, I would only have been called Raon.”
After Raon finished changing his clothes, he patted Dorian on the shoulder.
“Be proud. “You and everyone in the Gwangpungdan did their best.”
“… yes.”
Dorian put his clothes in his stomach pocket, looked at the floor, and nodded.
“let’s go.”
Raon smiled and walked out of the waiting room.
“Wow!”
“Raon!”
“Sulhwa Sword Association!”
“White Sword Dragon!”
“White Sword Dragon! “I look forward to the future!”
Besides the Sulwha Sword Hyeop, there were also people who called him by the nickname Baekgeomryong. It seems that Baekyoung Island, shown at the end, was deeply embedded in their minds.
‘It’s a sword dragon… .’
Having a dragon added to one’s nickname is the greatest honor given to a young warrior. Even in the Twelve Continents, only two out of the four people at the top had a dragon.
‘The name is becoming too much.’
After joining the Sword Cooperative, I became the Sword Dragon, and although I felt good, I also felt a little burdened.
“Then let’s start the awards ceremony now!”
The host came up to the sparring room and raised his hand.
“Expert class winner Marta Sieghardt, please step up to the podium.”
Martha nodded and went up to the stage where the heads of the six emperors were. The person in front was Glenn.
“It was a great fighting spirit. But you need to learn to care for yourself more.”
Glenn placed a platinum medal around Martha’s neck and patted her on the shoulder.
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
“Good work.”
“yes!”
Martha bowed her head deeply and moved to the side.
“Thank you for enlightening Greer.”
King Recross shook Martha’s hand and handed her a sword.
“It may not be as good as a broken sword, but since it belongs to a famous sword, it will be helpful until you get a new sword.”
“thank you!”
Martha bent down and raised both hands to receive the sword.
“It won’t leave a scar on your face. thank god.”
Chamber looked at Marta’s face and laughed.
“Can I use the scars on my face as a gift?”
“yes. “It doesn’t matter.”
Marta nodded as if it was really okay.
“Aww, cute!”
Chamber chuckled and waved his wand in Marta’s hand. A gray bracelet appeared on Martha’s hand as a blue light appeared.
“Ability is a secret!”
She covered her mouth with her finger and took a step back.
“thank you.”
Martha looked blankly at the bracelet and then lowered her head.
“Although they are still young, their martial spirit is no less than that of our children.”
Ogram stood in front of Martha. Although Martha was tall for a woman, she looked like a child in front of Ogram.
“It is the Federation’s advanced elixir. “It will help your body keep up with your mind.”
He gave Martha a wooden armor containing an elixir and smiled coolly.
“thank you.”
Marta bowed her head to Ogram and then approached Derus one last time.
“It was a great match.”
He smiled without a wrinkle and handed Marta a book.
“It is a walking technique called Pahyeonbo. You will be able to use that powerful sword technique more efficiently.”
“thank you!”
Martha greeted the five people again and then bowed her head to the audience.
“Wow!”
“Martha! “Martha!”
“Nachal sword! “Nachal sword!”
The audience applauded Martha, but her forehead stood out.
“I told you not to call it a Nachal sword! “You bastards!”
Martha gritted her teeth as she held on tightly to the rewards given by the leaders.
“Ahahahaha!”
“It’s a real Rakshasa!”
“Let’s call her Nachalnyeo again! “A sword can’t contain that ferocity!”
“Nachalnyeo! “Nachalnyeo!”
“Nachal sword! “Nachal sword!”
The audience giggled as if teasing Marta. Regardless of whether it was a sword or a woman, the image of Martha was attached to her as a Rakshasa.
“You rotten things!”
Marta jumped into the audience with fire in her eyes.
“hey! “Stop it!”
“Martha!”
“Captain!”
Thanks to the quick entry of the frenzy group below, they were able to take Martha out with a gag in her mouth.
“Oh, now, please understand that there was a brief problem.”
The host sighed, wiping away the cold sweat dripping from his forehead.
“Then next is Raon Sieghardt, the winner of the master class. “Please go up to the stage!”
“Yaaaaaa!”
Raon went up to the stage, hearing shouts that reached the sky.
“Hmm.”
Glenn’s face returned to its usual expressionless expression. He cleared his throat once and placed a platinum medal around his neck.
“It is a great counterattack that erases the enemy’s offensive, but it is not yet complete. “Because the season of being a master top-level swordsman would not have been erased.”
“yes.”
Perhaps because there were other people around, he talked about swordsmanship rather than complimenting me. Honestly, I smiled because it was more comfortable this way.
“It is a swordsmanship that will become stronger as you see more swordsmanship and experience more swordsmanship. “Try to refine it well.”
“thank you.”
Raon nodded to Glenn and moved to the side.
“I feel like I’ve had my eyes opened for the first time in a long time. “It was a great duel.”
Satisfaction could be seen from King Recross’ big smile.
“You have a sword, so something else would be better.”
He handed me a pair of gloves with a rapier engraved on them. Even just holding his glove gave me something special. It didn’t seem like an ordinary item.
“I hope your reputation will be heard in higher places.”
“thank you.”
King Recross was a man who showed favor from the first time he saw him. He expressed his sincere gratitude and stood in front of the chamber.
“Do you want to go with me?”
Chambers snapped his fingers and smiled.
“Mr. Chamber… .”
“That crazy thing!”
King Recross and Ogram on either side of her frowned.
“joke… “No, I’m really attracted to you.”
“yes?”
“Are you not interested in learning magic? I’ll tell you directly. “Come in as a disciple.”
“Even a single sword is too much.”
It doesn’t matter whether you have a talent for magic or not. I plan to end this with just one sword. Besides, Merlin alone was enough for a strange wizard.
“No, but I think it will work?”
Chamber glanced at Raon, muttering, ‘You can do it.’ A light of desire flashed in her eyes.
“Chamber.”
“Ugh, I understand.”
Chamber nodded at Glenn’s low voice and held out his wand.
“Next time I see you, you should look more handsome.”
A sparkling light fell from her wand and turned into a blue ring.
‘Is it an artifact?’
Like the bracelet given to Marta, this ring also seemed to be an artifact of Balkar. It was a kingdom that produced artifacts comparable to the Yonan family, so it was clear that it was a special artifact.
“Your abilities are a secret too!”
“thank you.”
Raon bowed his head and stood in front of Ogram.
“When I first saw him, I didn’t like him because he was so skinny, but his spirit was real. “You are a true warrior recognized by Ogram.”
He patted my back with a cool hand and held out a pair of wooden gloves.
“It’s an elixir. Not only will it restore the damaged body, but it will also strengthen the mana circuit and dantian.”
“thank you.”
“I have something else to tell you. “I’ll see you later.”
“yes.”
Ogram looked at Glenn and smiled. He didn’t know what he was talking about, so he lowered his head and stood in front of De Luz for the last time.
“that… .”
“sorry! Even though it wasn’t his intention, he cut off the Cadiz prosecutor’s arm! “I have nothing to say!”
I deliberately cut off Derus’s words and bowed deeply.
‘This guy really hates being interrupted.’
In any situation, Derus hates being interrupted. He deliberately cut him off and made him angry once more.
“… it’s okay.”
Derus’ voice was soft, but his lips trembled slightly. He meant that the anger he had let go was surging back up.
“Prosecutor Raon… .”
“Still, cutting off a warrior’s arm isn’t something that can be overlooked. “I will accept any punishment!”
Raon cut off Derus again and lowered his head.
“Wow… .”
“I’ll take any punishment… .”
“He’s a really great drone.”
“I know. It was Cádiz who took action first… .”
“That’s great. “I think I know why Sieghart is called the loser of the North.”
The audience was thrilled to see Raon apologize during the awards ceremony and applauded.
‘where… .’
Raon raised his head again. Derus’ smile sank to the point where it felt artificial. Others may think it is a benevolent smile, but it is not at all. That was an expression that seemed to have anger rising to its throat.
‘Of course.’
The plan was thwarted, the son’s arm was cut off, and there was no way to argue or demand compensation. Even if you can’t speak, you’ll want to strangle him right now.
‘I guess I’ll have to stop here for today.’
I chewed my cheek and could barely contain myself from bursting out in laughter. I wanted to tease him more, but I wanted to save that for later.
“It’s really okay. “This was a duel, so he will accept it.”
Derus shook his head and handed over a booklet.
“Prosecutor Raon’s dagger technique seemed unsystematic. “This dagger technique will be helpful.”
The name Biryeongdo was written in the booklet.
“thank you.”
Raon bowed his head to Derus and then took a step back. He bowed once again to the heads of the six emperors, turned around, and stood in front of the podium.
“Wow!”
“Raon! Raon! Raon!”
“Sulhwa Sword Association! “Sulhwa Sword Association!”
“White Sword Dragon! “White Sword Dragon!”
A louder shout than that of Martha rings out. It felt like the sparring hall was shaking with just the voices of the people.
“thank you.”
Raon felt his heart beating wildly and expressed his gratitude to the audience. After thanking him for his support so far, I tried to stand up, but my body had no strength.
My body leaned forward without being able to lift a finger.
‘Why, here… .’
It seemed like all the energy I had gained from teasing Derus was gone. As I fall, the ground gets closer.
As I was about to close my eyes, I felt someone holding my body.
‘ah… .’
This feeling… .
Raon’s eyes closed with a warmth that felt like a long time ago.
* * *
Raon frowned as he looked at the pure white ceiling.
‘Did you faint?’
I don’t remember anything after saying hello to the audience. The last scene was of the land getting closer.
‘It’s pathetic that you faint even after becoming this strong.’
He laughed and stood up.
‘No, is it obvious?’
Baekyoungseom is a swordsmanship that extremely consumes brain power and aura. A series of difficult sword techniques even if you only use them once. Since I used it while suffering from severe internal injuries, it was not surprising that I fainted.
‘Las.’
Just as I was about to ask Lars how long it had been, the door to the infirmary opened.
“You seem to be okay now?”
Rimer, who came in first, smiled and waved his hand.
“Can you tell a kid who just woke up that he’s okay?”
Cheryl kicked Rimmer’s ass.
“Lord Budan. “Are you okay inside?”
Roen smiled softly and looked around her body.
“Oh, it’s okay.”
As Raon smiled slightly, Glenn came in behind the three. He came to the front of the bed and gave a sharp look in his eyes.
‘Am I going to get scolded?’
I thought I might get scolded for collapsing at an important moment when I was going down after greeting the audience.
“What is unmanned?”
As soon as Glenn’s mouth opened, his eyes narrowed.
“You must know yourself better than others. What I can do, how long I can endure, and how far I can advance. “The true attitude of a warrior is to always reflect on yourself.”
I could feel the coldness in his voice.
“You overstepped your bounds today. My body and brain were overloaded and I lost my mind. “If no one had been there, he would have died.”
“sorry.”
It was also a scolding. However, since what he said was not wrong, he lowered his head.
“The family name and reputation are good, but think of yourself first.”
Glenn took a step closer and grabbed her shoulder. His touch was warm, but strangely enough, she was trembling slightly.
“But today… .”
Although it was a bit of a pause, it seemed like he was trying to end it with a compliment, saying ‘You worked hard’, as he started with ‘Thank you’.
Glenn is a man who never gives empty words, so it always feels good to hear praise from him.
“Well, eat a lot of meat.”
“… … .”
The infirmary fell into silence at the completely unexpected words.
“uh… .”
Raon tilted his chin.
‘What did I just hear?’
I gaped at the absurdity.
“Okay, I’m done.”
Glenn immediately turned around and left the infirmary.
“Go, matriarch.”
“Master Raon. See you later.”
Cheryl and Roen took a look and followed Glenn out.
“Hey!”
Rimmer pretended to spit on the floor and frowned.
“That old man!”
He screamed and ran after the three people.
“what… ?”
Because I’m weak. Are you telling me to eat meat and become stronger?
I felt dizzy because I couldn’t understand the situation.
-Stupid guy.
Lars snorted and rose into the air.
-Because you are so pathetically weak! Doesn’t this mean that you should eat meat and gain strength!
The guy grabbed my shoulder tightly. There was an unbearable smile on his lips.
-There will be a party today, so make sure to participate! If you eat only what the real king says, you too can become as strong as the devil!
‘uh… .’
Is this really true?
* * *
“Ughhhhh!”
Rimmer let out a long sigh.
“Eating a lot of meat! “It’s so pathetic!”
He gritted his teeth as he watched Glenn walk in front of him.
“I told my grandson, ‘You worked hard. Is it that hard to say ‘I love you’?”
Glenn had a language malfunction when he tried to add not only the words “I worked hard,” but also the words “I love you.”
It was so absurd that I couldn’t even laugh.
“If I close my eyes just once and say something, everything from now on will go smoothly!”
Glenn didn’t look back even though he was being scolded, and his back became more and more bent.
“I’m so frustrated that my stomach is exploding!”
Rimmer’s voice grew louder as he gained momentum.
“Aren’t you going to hug your grandchildren? You’re not going to apologize to your daughter! “Is she just going to do that and then she’s going to be buried?”
“Umm… .”
“When Raon fell from the podium, I was so embarrassed that I couldn’t breathe and ran out. I don’t know why he was so embarrassed! Even the rockfish guy next door to us wouldn’t do something like this!”
“… … .”
Glenn stopped walking.
“there is a problem.”
His voice sank low.
“What trouble have you caused again! Can I solve it for you? “I don’t know what would have happened without me.”
Glenn slowly turns his head. An icy cold gaze enveloped Rimmer.
“to?”
“I’m leaving, and you’re my vassal, so why am I getting scolded?”
“yes? No, that’s… .”
Rimmer’s cheeks trembled. Now I realize that I talked too much.
“I, I am for the matriarch… .”
“catch.”
“yes!”
When he tried to back away, Cheryl and Roen grabbed his arms.
Absolutely!
Red sparks began to sprout from Glenn’s fingers.
“haha… .”
“I understand, but you were too fussy.”
“wait for a sec!”
Rimmer struggled, even using his Aura.
“Not now! I have gambling tickets that haven’t been exchanged yet… .”
His words didn’t last until the end. Because a huge thunderbolt fell along Glenn’s fingertips.
Crumbling!
