Chapter 645
“I’m embarrassed to say it with my own mouth, but is it okay for you to let me go like that?”
Serena bit her lip slightly as she looked at Sword Demon Rektar, who was far away.
As the leader of Sieghart, he seemed to be displeased with the idea of sending an official of the Holy Swordsman away unharmed.
“It’s a pity, but that old man is stronger than me.”
Aris waved her hand lightly toward Serena. She was honest about her own lack of power.
“Besides, the transcendental person who attacked Raon may still remain. “There are many wounded on our side, so there is no need to increase the number of casualties.”
“Ha, sorry. “It looks like the blood on his head hasn’t drained yet.”
Serena sighed and lowered her head. Her eyes trembled slightly as she examined her own injuries.
“are you okay. “That happens sometimes.”
Aris lightly stroked Serena’s hair as if she understood.
“Wow, people really change.”
Rimmer looked at Aris and let out a long sigh.
“How could Sieghardt’s greatest asshole say such a thing… .”
“Do you want to sleep?”
Aris looked at Rimmer with a devil-like expression, as if wondering when he had ever smiled.
“Still, I’m glad it ended without incident.”
Burren sat down on the floor, catching his breath.
“I didn’t even have the strength to stand anymore.”
“The guy named Gwangpungdae leader is pathetic.”
Marta looked down at Buren and clicked her tongue.
“Nachalnyeo. “My legs are shaking.”
Runaan traced Marta’s leg with her finger.
“Ugh! “This is so crazy!”
Marta tried to rush towards Runaan, but her legs gave out and she fell down.
The Wild Wind Team had a smile on their face for the first time in a long time as they watched Runan and Marta bickering.
However, Raon was not a fanatic, but instead, he followed the direction where Rektar disappeared and tightened his fists.
‘As expected, there were circumstances.’
If Muston was acting for me, it meant that Rektar, who he followed, was ultimately acting to help me.
Furthermore, I am not trying to defend Rektar simply based on Muston’s reaction.
If Rektar had wanted it, there would have been an all-out war, both when we met at the Rakion family and today, but he meekly retreated both times.
If a battle were to break out, the damage to the Holy Swordsman would be great, and we, who were exhausted, would be annihilated, but he turned his back without any regret.
It was a strange thing for the Holy Swordmaster, who was crazy about swords even among Oma.
‘I understand it all now.’
I don’t know the exact circumstances, but it was clear that Rektar was forcibly bound by the Holy Sword Master.
-It’s surprising that there are times when you rely on affection.
Lars held his head with his chubby hands and let out a heavy breath.
-If you have expectations, you may be disappointed.
‘I wasn’t relying on emotion, I was thinking rationally.’
-That’s it. Let’s go get something to eat reasonably quickly. Kehehe!
The guy spoke in a weak voice and then let out a dry cough. He looked very tired. It seemed as if the energy itself had shrunk significantly.
‘okay. ‘Let’s eat first.’
-oh? What’s wrong with you?
‘What’s going on?’
Raon shook his head as he touched Lars’s gently fluttering tail. Since he received great help from Lars, he wanted to do whatever the guy wanted.
‘Instead, eat home-cooked food a little later.’
-hmm? ‘Where are you going?’
‘that is… .’
As Raon was about to answer, Rimmer came forward, clapping his hands.
“Because Kaiyan is guarding the tomb. “Let’s clean up here later and then go back to Sieghart.”
“There’s somewhere I have to go before that.”
He shook his head and took out a broken sword and staff from his subspace pocket.
“Where to go? ah… .”
As soon as Rimmer saw the broken sword and staff, he nodded heavily.
“I see. “I should go there.”
* * *
Rektar sent his minions to the Holy Sword Training Center and climbed the mountain on the other side of the Sword Zone Tomb alone.
Originally, we would have returned to Yeon together, but I didn’t think we would give up until we found out who the person who attacked Raon was.
Rektar stood halfway up the mountain where the attackers appeared to be and looked away.
‘It must be here.’
There were no traces of footprints, no traces of pressing down on the bushes, and no distortion of the flow of mana, but it was clear that the attacker had thrown a black blade at this location.
Rektar got down on one knee. He scrutinized the floor and furrowed his brows.
‘Who is it?’
I traveled around the continent and met all the famous strongmen, but I couldn’t think of a warrior who could deliver such a sword strike from this distance.
‘It’s difficult at the level of Shinju Oryeong.’
I know that the Comedy Emperor is hiding her power, but even if she revealed her full power, it seemed difficult for her to demonstrate that level of force.
‘There is no one like this in Yukwanggoma.’
Although he belonged to Oma, he lived as a neutral person, so he met all the heads of the six emperors.
It is possible to attack with their force, but there is no reason to do so, nor is it possible.
The same goes for Oma.
Not even the most mysterious Fallen Cult, the White Blood Cult leader who has lived for hundreds of years, or the Black Tower Cult, known as darkness itself, can shoot out an aura containing the intention of death.
I haven’t met Cheonma, but it makes no sense for him to come here and surprise Raon.
‘The bigger problem is… .’
I guess this guy is hiding his power.
Judging from the fact that the auror flow here has not changed at all, the person who attacked Raon was not using all his strength, but was attacking with some of his strength saved. Cold sweat ran down his back.
‘Is he a third person at all?’
My teeth are chattering. The fact that the guy whose name should be placed at the highest place among transcendentalists was targeting Raon made me curious about the reason why he was targeting Raon, rather than the identity of the attacker.
“Master.”
As I was holding my head in anxiety and tension, Muston came up from below.
“Did you find any traces of him?”
“I can’t see it.”
Rektar sighed deeply and shook his head.
“He probably isn’t an assassin, but there isn’t even a single trace.”
“He’s a dangerous guy.”
“okay.”
As Muston said, the fact that all traces were erased in this short moment meant that it was not something that had been done once or twice.
The enemy may not be one, but a group.
“I will look for it too.”
Muston lowered his head and looked at the floor and bushes in a turtle-like posture.
“Muston.”
Rektar looked at his disciple and smiled faintly.
“You said you wanted to see Raon, but you tolerated him well without going to him. thanks.”
“Isn’t this the path for Raon?”
Muston made eye contact with his teacher and nodded. Clear eyes. The jealousy and envy that had enveloped him in the past was nowhere to be seen.
“You went higher than when I saw you before. Just seeing it was enough.”
He smiled without a wrinkle, as if that was enough.
“You have changed as much as that child. “Believe in your own potential.”
Rektar gently tapped Muston on the shoulder.
Muston slightly lowered his eyes in gratitude.
“I’ll have to postpone going back to the gym for a while. “I don’t think I’ll be able to relax unless I find even the slightest trace of this person.”
“Ryeonju will be waiting for you, but I don’t know if he will be okay.”
“Okay. “If you talk about the auror that contains death, you will be more interested than Sword Zone’s legacy.”
Rektar frowned resolutely, as if he had read Ryonju’s thoughts.
“Are you really okay with that?”
He looked at Muston and clicked his tongue briefly.
“I told you before, there is no exit at the end of my road. It’s not too late… .”
“no.”
Muston shook his head resolutely.
“Master became a pillar for me to hold on to, and Raon attached a rope so that I could reach the pillar. “For the sake of the two of you, I don’t mind doing anything.”
He laughed and said that he would not change his mind now.
“okay.”
Rektar nodded calmly. His eyes have not changed before or now. He always had the affection to support his students.
“Then let’s go.”
“yes. “Master.”
The teacher and student walked together, shoulder to shoulder.
* * *
Raon stood in the royal capital of the Balkar Kingdom and raised his gaze.
‘It’s definitely different from Owen.’
Unlike the Owen Kingdom, where the force of a sword was felt, an intelligent and mysterious temperament spread throughout the city.
The shapes of the buildings are also different. Most of the buildings were tall like towers and had an archaic shape. The entire royal capital felt like a huge library.
The behavior of people was also unusual. He held a thick book in his hands and wore colorful robes. She all looked like a wizard.
“Are these all wizards?”
Burren looked at the people passing by and sighed.
“Because it’s a magic kingdom. “It’s natural.”
Marta slapped Buren on the shoulder and frowned.
“That’s because this is the royal capital.”
Kurman, a disciple of Noesoe Barpil, approached and shook his head.
“If there were this many wizards in other cities, we would have taken over the continent, which is a shame.”
He made a light joke as if to lighten the heavy atmosphere and headed toward the inner room.
“… … .”
Raon knew Kurman’s feelings, so he followed him without saying anything.
Cooung.
The middle-aged guardian knight who was guarding the front of the castle stamped his foot and looked up at Kurman.
“Mr. Kurman. “You’ve returned.”
“Long time no see. Mr. Lucan.”
Kurman smiled slightly and lowered his head.
“Thank you for your hard work. But Lord Barfil… .”
“… … .”
Kurman chewed his lip without answering. His complexion suddenly darkened.
“hmm… .”
The guardian knight let out a short groan after reading the mood of Kurman and the people standing behind him.
“sorry.”
“no. “Rather, I would like to obtain permission to enter the inner city.”
Kurman shook his head and pointed to the windmill behind him.
“These are Sieghart’s Stormtroopers who saved us from the Tomb of the Sword Zone. He said he had something to say about this matter, so I came with him. “I will guarantee your identity with my name.”
He provided proof for Gwangpungdae to enter the inner palace.
“My name is Raon Sieghart, the Great Lord of the Wind Wind.”
Raon came out next to Kurman and bowed his head.
“It’s been a while since I saw you.”
As soon as the Guardian Knight made eye contact with Raon, he swallowed dry saliva.
“Do you know me?”
“I saw you before in the Owen Kingdom. Of course, there is no comparison to that time.”
He blurted out something absurd.
“I have Kurman’s guarantee, and I have seen Raon in person before, so there should be no problem. Please come in.”
As the Guardian Knight stepped back, the huge door high in the sky sparkled with transparent light and then disappeared.
The castle gate also seemed to have been created by magic.
“thank you.”
Kurman bowed his head to the guardian knight and began guiding again.
There were more and more wizards in the inner city.
However, they did not look in this direction as if they were busy with work and walked to where they had to go. It looked like a wizard kingdom.
“hmm… .”
Raon narrowed his eyes as he looked inside the castle.
‘The inside is different from Owen’s too.’
The interior of Balkar Royal Castle was full of unidentifiable artifacts, as if it were a museum.
The road felt narrow because it was filled with items that were unidentifiable, including everyday clothes, shoes, and bracelets.
Soft lighting was flowing throughout the castle, as if it were a device for wizards reading books wherever they were.
“This is the royal castle where Your Majesty stays. “I will request an audience first, but I don’t know if he will be there right now.”
Kurman pointed to the throne room inside and took a quick bite.
“If His Majesty is away, I would like to see Mr. Chamber.”
-hey! come!
As soon as he said those words, Lars pointed his finger at the ceiling.
“me?”
After Lars’ words were heard, a girl’s voice was heard from above.
When I looked up, I saw the movie’s Grand Wizard Chamber, wearing a witch’s hat and smiling brightly.
“Che, Chamber!”
Kurman was so scared that he fell to the floor.
-Did you see it?
Lars raised his nose with his hands on his hips.
-It’s not too late this time! Kehehe! Keck!
The guy coughed dryly because the damage caused by causality had not yet been repaired.
‘… okay. great job.’
This time it didn’t mean anything, but the guy looked sick, so I praised him for comforting him.
“You’re Raon, right? “I heard a rumor, but you’ve become incredibly strong?”
Chamber nodded with admiration in his eyes.
“But what is this unusual combination? “Why is that fishy girl over there staying quiet?”
She rolled her eyes at the windbreaker, the wizard, and Aris.
“Meet the Archmage of Valkar.”
Aris bowed her head politely, perhaps because of the unfavorable situation. She knew for herself what posture to take.
“Meet the Archmage.”
Raon bent down next to Aris.
“joy. “I get embarrassed when it suddenly comes out like that.”
Chamber frowned as he put a lollipop in his mouth.
“At a glance. “I don’t think this is a story you’ll hear here.”
She sighed briefly and snapped her fingers.
Ugh!
At that moment, the space changed with the feeling of floating in the air.
The royal hallway warped and turned into a white room.
It was a very large place, and dolls and snacks were piled up here and there, like a girl’s room.
However, the walls were filled with books that were difficult to count.
It seemed to be Chamber’s personal space. There was no one else. It seemed like I was the only one moved this way.
“It must be related to Sword Zone’s tomb, right?”
Chamber’s voice suddenly subsided. He seemed to know what to say.
“say it.”
“This matter also has something to do with the Owen Kingdom. However, I came to nearby Balkar first… .”
“Then Owen should go too?”
“That’s right.”
“Let’s just deal with it all at once.”
She twirled the lollipop and snapped her fingers.
Taaaaah!
With a cool sound like cracking a walnut, a blue dimension opened in the air.
Lying in the shimmering dimensional gap was a middle-aged man with beautiful blond hair that looked like a painting, and he was grinning as he looked at a pink book.
“uh… ?”
Raon gaped at the middle-aged man.
‘Mr. Recross?’
That person was King Lecross of Owen, nicknamed Mukgeomjon.
“Chamber! How many times have I told you not to suddenly open the dimension… omg! Raon?”
Recross looked this way and felt Raon’s gaze and his shoulders trembled.
“Kuhuhhum!”
He cleared his throat, stood up and straightened his back.
“Ra, Raon Sieghart. No, now I should call him Gwangpungdaeju, right? long time no see.”
Recross instantly took on a majestic appearance, but because its first appearance was so shocking, it didn’t feel heavy at all.
-Did you see the name of the book he was reading? The king now feels like he has seen something in vain!
Lars’ lips trembled as if he was surprised.
“… “I see you, Mukgeomjon.”
Raon ignored Lars for now and bowed his head to Recross.
“Yeah, yeah. “What’s going on?”
“I guess this guy has something to say to you and me.”
Chamber shook his head, biting into the candy. It’s a different atmosphere than when I saw it at the Six Emperors’ Meeting. Now that I see it, it seems like these two were actually closer than they were known to be.
“What should I say?”
“yes. I have something to say to you both. This time, I entered the Tomb of the Sword Zone… .”
Raon desperately came to his senses and told Chamber and Recross everything that had happened in Sword Zone’s tomb.
“… That’s how I was able to survive thanks to Commander Koman and Noesoe.”
While saying those words, he held out his broken sword and staff forward. My hands were shaking without realizing it.
“That’s it.”
Recross calmly nodded despite hearing the sudden news.
“As he said, a knight is the face of a lord. However, he doesn’t seem to know that it is better to paint his face in ink than to have it disappear.”
He lowered his head and chewed his lip.
“The nickname Noesoe means a solid stem of lightning. “I built it.”
Chamber frowned as he took the candy out of his mouth.
“I gave him that name in the hope that he would soften up a bit because he was more of a knight than a wizard, but he went the same way when he left. “He’s a frustrating guy.”
She clicked her tongue as she took Barfil’s staff.
“But he won’t regret it. “Thank you for bringing me a keepsake.”
Chamber smiled slightly and nodded. For the first time, she seemed to be my age.
“Me too.”
King Owen smiled slightly as he examined the sword that Chamber had sent through space.
“Kuzan would be proud to have fought alongside you. “She shows gratitude.”
The two conveyed the same meaning with different smiles.
“I am more grateful.”
Raon bowed his head once again, deeply feeling the emotions of Recross and Chamber.
“Anyway, it’s surprising that that area was originally Sieghardt’s land.”
Recross stroked his chin and narrowed his eyes.
“I acknowledge that Sieghardt owns the land.”
“What are you admitting?”
Chamber furrowed his brow as he took another bite of the candy.
“Owen has nothing to do with that place!”
“Kuhm, let me set the mood a little… .”
Recross shook his head hesitantly.
“However, even if we admit it, it will be different for people to admit it. “It will take a long time.”
He continued speaking in a heavy voice, as if he had not given up on finding dignity.
“Probably not?”
Chamber looked at Recross and shook his head firmly.
“What does that mean?”
“The rumor is spreading like crazy right now.”
She pointed to her ears as if she were listening to other people’s stories.
“Sieghardt’s sacred place where anyone who enters that forest has no choice but to lay down their sword. “It is called Haegeomji.”
