Chapter 873
“ah… .”
Raon gaped as he saw Karun smiling in victory.
‘That human… .’
Is this Karun Sieghardt?
Karun was originally obsessed with an inferiority complex and ignored and insulted himself and Sylvia, but after realizing his mistakes, he overcame his inferiority complex through reflection and effort and rose to transcendence.
I looked up to him in my heart because he was a man with deep affection for Sieghart and unwavering pride as a warrior, but I had no idea that he would cool off so drastically.
“Is that what you want to say to your nephew who just caught the dragon?”
Balder frowned deeply. It was a look of astonishment.
“Besides, Raon caught three dragons. “It’s different from you, who almost died after barely catching one.”
“You don’t know what. It doesn’t matter how many little guys you catch. “It doesn’t matter how big he is.”
Karun only mentioned the size of the dragon, as if bragging among anglers about who caught the big fish.
“Hmm, from what I’ve heard, it seems like that… ?”
Balder suddenly muttered that size was important, as if he had been assimilated by Karun.
“No, not this! “If your nephew catches a dragon, just praise him!”
He waved his elbow to come to his senses.
“joy.”
Karun easily dodged Balder’s attack and placed his hand on Mathirus’ horn.
“What was this ancient dragon’s special ability?”
“It was gravity that could be used without mana. “They used it freely, ranging from a very slight intensity to something strong enough to crush me.”
Raon let out a short sigh, saying that it was not an easy fight.
“It would have been dangerous if the master of martial arts had not told me that ancient dragons have special abilities.”
It’s not a lie. If Karun had not told him before leaving for Seifia that the ancient dragon had a special ability, not only Mathirus but also the black dragon would have been greatly affected by the change in his senses.
“No, you would have done it yourself even if I hadn’t told you.”
Karun shook his head resolutely, telling others not to take credit for his own accomplishments.
-Why are those big eyes doing that?
‘Big eyes?’
-Because my eyes are the color of my dad’s. Aren’t the big eyes fitting?
Lars called Karun big-eyed and narrowed the bridge of his nose.
-I think I’ve become a fool, perhaps as a reaction to the inferiority complex that filled those fierce eyes.
The guy shook his head, saying he didn’t understand.
‘I do not know either.’
Raon nodded. He had nothing to say because he himself could not understand Karun’s words and actions.
“I am proud to have the surname Sieghardt after my name. “I could die for that.”
Karun took his hand off Mathirus’ head and looked at Raon.
“I felt like I could see that in you today too. “It probably means that a little bit of pride in Sieghart has taken root in your soul.”
He tapped his shoulder and turned his back.
“I hope you keep that feeling no matter what happens in the future. “I’m back.”
Karun left his final words saying that he had a hard time and went back to the front of the house.
“Ah, father. “What did you say to Raon?”
Burren approached Karun with nervous eyes.
“It’s nothing. Rather… .”
Karun looked Buren up and down with narrowed eyes.
“What did you feel when you returned from this mission?”
“Well, I still have a long way to go… .”
“That’s how I see it. “I will take care of you instead of the head of the family.”
“yes?”
He grabbed Burren, who was blinking, by the back of his neck and dragged him to the heavy radio.
“Why is that person doing that?”
Balder shook his head as if he couldn’t understand Karun.
“… … .”
Raon took a quick bite as he watched Karun’s back moving away.
‘I guess I wanted to praise you in my own way.’
Because of Karun’s personality, he couldn’t approach her in a friendly way, so it seemed like he was trying to encourage her by talking to her in this way.
“Looking at that human, I have a lot to think about, so I’m hungry.”
Balder touched his stomach with a hand the size of a pot lid and turned his gaze to Raon.
“I heard that dragon meat is so delicious. Do you think there’s some left?”
He snapped his fingers as if asking for any leftover meat.
“of course. Dorian.”
“Ah, yep!”
As Raon gestured, Dorian took out dragon meat from his stomach pouch.
“Hmm! thanks.”
Balder said he would enjoy it and quickly received three pieces of dragon meat.
“Oh, and… .”
He lowered his voice slightly as he placed the meat on his shoulder.
“What you asked for… .”
“What are we talking about in a place like this?”
When Balder was about to open his mouth again, a soft voice was heard.
“hmm… .”
I saw Denier and Marta walking behind Balder’s mountain-like body.
“Looking at their expressions, it looks like they were having a serious conversation, but maybe I interrupted them.”
Denier looked at Balder, who had stiffened, and waved his hand slightly.
“What is the truth! “I was just asking how to grill this meat.”
Balder snorted to stop talking nonsense.
“uh? It’s dragon meat. “It’s hard to cook this, but the taste can’t be matched by even the highest quality beef!”
Marta gave it a thumbs up, saying it tasted unexpectedly good.
“Dorian. “Is there any meat left?”
“There is enough!”
Dorian nodded and took out three types of dragon meat from his stomach bag.
“thanks. “Eat well.”
Denier nodded towards Dorian and Raon.
“Why did you come here?”
Balder lowered one of his eyebrows, asking why he came here.
“You’ve been following me around lately, so I was waiting to see why you didn’t come today.”
Denier shrugged and suggested that we go back together.
“Well, if that’s the case, wait a moment. “Because I have more to receive from my nephew.”
Balder waved his hand, telling me to go first.
“Sure.”
Denier nodded lightly and looked at Raon.
“It was a lot of hard work. “Get some rest.”
He turned his back, smiling the kind smile he always shows.
“I’ll eat well!”
Martha waved to her father, Denier, with her arms around him, and walked away.
Even though it was just a little bit, I felt uneasy about that appearance.
“Well, to continue what I was saying earlier, there wasn’t anything particularly strange.”
Balder frowned as he watched Denier walking away.
“On the contrary, I found it annoying because they used their time so efficiently. “Even the time to eat and go for a walk is all set.”
“Aren’t you going to visit your aunt?”
“I hear it almost every day, and contrary to your worries, I have no intention of using any strange spells on my sister.”
He shook his head, saying it was literally just a visit to the hospital.
“okay. Thank you for your effort.”
Raon bowed his head to Balder.
“no! “If you have anything to ask for in the future, please let me know anytime!”
Balder left, saying that he could always grant his nephew’s request.
“Dorian.”
Raon called out to Dorian as he watched Denier walking with Balder.
“Can you tell me what you felt from the people who came here a little while ago?”
Because Dorian has the mind’s eye, he may have seen things that he himself could not see.
“hmm… .”
Dorian tilted his head with his hand over his mouth.
“Jungmu Jeonju felt like a straight blade. However, unlike before, the sword body felt as soft as a soft sword. Jinmu Jeonju is just poetry, appetite?”
He let out a laugh as he mentioned Karun and Balder.
“Finally, from Lord Hyeonmu Jeon… .”
Dorian took a quick bite and shook his head.
“I didn’t feel anything.”
He said he had no idea and looked away.
“Right… .”
Raon let out a short sigh as he watched Denier disappear.
‘It seems like he understood Balder’s intentions. As expected, it’s not easy.’
Well, if my tail had been stepped on because of something like this, I would have been caught by the matriarch long ago.
Denier Sieghardt was a man who was difficult to judge. Even now, I couldn’t figure out what he meant.
‘But we still have to keep it in check.’
Since I couldn’t get hit in the back again, it was right to be prepared in any way possible.
“Dorian. “Can you give me some meat too?”
Raon stretched out his hand to Dorian, asking for some meat.
“yes!”
Dorian smiled as he took out three types of dragon meat as if he had been waiting. He seemed happiest when taking things out and putting them away.
“thanks.”
-Oh oh! Are you going to give me the king?
Lars cocked his chin arrogantly as if he was finally offering a sacrifice.
‘Wake up from your dream.’
Raon pushed away Lars, who was clinging to him, and headed to the annex with Yua and Julius.
As I was chatting lightly with the kids, I soon saw an annex with warm smoke coming out of it.
“lady! “Sisters!”
Yua vigorously opened the door and entered, announcing that he had returned from a mission.
Coo coo coo coo!
As soon as there was a loud noise as if the stairs were collapsing, Sia jumped out and hugged Raon.
“Raon! “You’re late!”
Sia shook her head and asked why she came so late.
“But I was guarding the house instead of Raon!”
She rubbed her head against herself as if asking for a compliment.
“Raon!”
“I heard about your performance from my father-in-law. He said he caught three dragons?
Sylvia and Edgar also waved and smiled as if they had returned safely.
“great job. sister.”
Raon stroked Sia’s head and lowered her head.
“I’m back.”
As expected, this annex was the only place on the entire continent where he could feel at ease.
“This is a gift.”
He shook his head and shook the dragon meat he had received from Dorian.
-thanks! The king will eat well… .
‘It’s not you!’
* * *
“cadet!”
After finishing eating with his family, Raon threw himself into bed. After taking a bath and filling his stomach, he wanted to sleep like this.
-Hmm! It’s a bit disappointing that I couldn’t eat the grilled dragon, but the annex dishes are still delicious.
Lars took a long sip, saying it was a satisfying dinner.
-After all, home-cooked meals are the best!
‘It’s home-cooked food… .’
Does Lars now treat the annex as his home?
The word home is not something that comes easily.
I’ve mentioned home-cooked meals once in the past, but this was the first time I’ve had it done so easily and comfortably.
-But what are you going to do about it?
Lars came down, his tail waving.
‘that?’
-The lizard heart.
He pointed to the subspace pouch placed on top of the drawer.
-The elder dragon-level lizard Heart has more power than you think. That’s where the lizards’ special abilities come from.
Lars shook his head, saying it would be best to handle it carefully.
‘I decided on someone to give one to. And the remaining one… .’
Raon looked at Lars and shook his head briefly.
‘I’m going to leave it alone for now. ‘I might have something to write about later.’
-Who will give it to you? Who is that?
‘that… .’
As I was about to answer, I felt a noise at the window.
When I looked up, I saw Glenn tapping his finger on the window.
“grandfather?”
Raon opened the window with his eyes closed.
“How can we get here…?” .”
I was supposed to meet Glenn at the dance hall in California tonight, so I didn’t expect him to come here.
“I went out for a walk. “Now that we’re done, let’s walk to the training ground.”
Glenn tilted his chin as if to come out and turned his back.
“All right.”
Raon took the Jecheon Sword, the Requiem Sword, and the Rimmer Sword and quietly left the annex.
I walked next to Glenn, who was walking first, and said hello again.
“Now that I think about it, I went to return that guy’s sword and brought it back.”
Glenn smiled slightly as he looked at Rimmer’s sword at his waist.
“The guardian told me to take it back as proof of the alliance between Sieghart and Seifia.”
Raon shook his head, saying that Stelin never received the sword.
“Oh, and… .”
He took out the requiem sword from behind his waist and let out a short sigh.
“Master hasn’t left yet.”
“You didn’t leave? “What does that mean?”
“actually… .”
Raon told me that Rimmer’s soul is still embedded in the requiem sword.
“Khahahaha!”
Glenn let out a rare laugh out loud.
“It’s something of a guy. Cheryl will love it.”
He shook his head and said that he was an elf who got tired.
“What was the relationship between the Great Lord of the Heavenly Sword and Master?”
Raon secretly asked a question about Rimmer.
“Hmm, that’s… No, it’s not for me to say.”
Glenn shook his head, saying he couldn’t interfere with his subordinates’ private lives.
“You ask yourself. “He’ll probably run away.”
He smiled slightly, as if he could imagine what would happen.
“It’s hard for me to ask… .”
Raon smoothed the back of his head.
“… “Me too, but you’ve changed a lot too.”
Glenn rested his chin, saying he seemed to have developed a sense of human relationships.
“There is still a long way to go. “Even now, I hear people say I don’t care every day.”
Surprisingly, talking to Glenn didn’t feel awkward. Although she didn’t have deep conversations, she felt a little closer to him.
As we walked and made small talk, we were able to reach the training ground behind Gajujeon Hall.
“Have you mastered the Changgung Sword?”
Glenn asked, looking up at the dark sky.
“I haven’t completely mastered it, but there is nothing I can’t do now.”
Since he had reached transcendence and the level of all swordsmanship had risen, there was no longer any blockage in spear arching swords. I felt like I could master everything if I had enough practice time.
“Then we can now move on.”
“What’s next?”
“There’s always lightning somewhere in the sky. The martial arts to be taught this time is… .”
Red lightning flashed above Glenn’s eyes.
“It’s a sword of brain power that I made a while ago.”
