Chapter 938
“Go, my lord…?”
Raon let out a sigh as he looked into Glenn’s wrinkled eyes.
“What happened?”
Glenn Sieghardt is a more cool-headed and rational person than anyone he knows. Even though he was worried about Montiro’s loss of communication, he didn’t expect him to react this violently.
My head, which had been so dizzy that I thought I might faint from embarrassment, briefly cleared up.
“Just looking at you shows how dangerous the war here was.”
Glenn bit his lip slightly and strengthened the arms that held him.
“Thank you for holding on until the end, Raon.”
He thanked me again and patted his back with a trembling hand.
“grandfather… .”
Glenn’s words of gratitude touched my heart so strangely that the word “grandfather” came out without me realizing it.
-Woman, has Yeongtaeng finally become senile?
Lars took a deep breath as if he couldn’t understand Glenn.
‘It’s not that you’re delusional, it’s that you’re just emotionally agitated.’
Of course she knew that Glenn cared for her more than others.
But he always showed a cold side in front of others, so I didn’t know that he would suddenly show his affection in front of everyone.
‘It’s not just emotional, it seems like you’re very tired.’
Glenn had been out of breath since he came here, and his eyes were full of fatigue, as if he had stayed up all night for several days.
There was no way the Transcendant would be tired just by moving all the way here, so it seemed like he had gone through a big fight.
‘What can I say? I think my grandfather looks a little blurry… .’
Is it because I’m tired?’
Glenn was unfolding a more magnificent wave of energy than when he was sitting on Sieghardt’s throne, but it also gave a vague feeling, like dawn fog dispersing in front of the sun. She was confused because she felt simultaneous sensations that could not coexist.
-No, you saw it correctly.
Lars narrowed his eyes, saying that what he felt was correct.
‘What do you mean… .’
When Raon was about to ask Lars back, he heard the sound of the ground collapsing, and people gathered around the fountain.
“Go, matriarch?”
“How is the lord here?”
“huh… ?”
Burren, Martha, and Runaan opened their eyes wide as they saw Glenn holding them.
“You guys, come here too.”
Glenn slightly raised his head and gestured to Burren, Marta, and Runaan.
“yes? ah… .”
“Me, us too?”
“hmm!”
Burren and Martha stood there in bewilderment, but Runaan kicked the ground without hesitation and stood next to Raon.
“Good job.”
Glenn approached Lunan first and hugged her gently, just like Raon.
“are you okay… .”
Runaan said it was okay and patted Glenn on the back in return.
“Huh!”
“uh… ?”
As soon as Burren and Martha saw Glenn hugging Runaan, they broke the floor and ran towards Glenn.
“Thank you all for overcoming the difficult fight.”
Glen nodded, hugging Burren, Martha, and Runaan all at once.
“hmm… .”
Raon let out a low groan as he looked at Glenn, whose voice was slightly trembling.
‘What happened?’
It seemed as if the person had changed, as he expressed his emotions like that to everyone, not just himself.
“Raon. Can you tell me what kind of fight took place here?”
“Well, since you know everything about the strategy, I’ll tell you from now on.”
Raon briefly reported the war with Black Tower to Glenn, who was comforting the three captains.
“Oh, father?”
When I had almost finished telling the story of the war, Karun, whose injuries had been treated, came out of the infirmary.
He appeared to be embarrassed by Glenn, who was holding Burren, Marta, and Runan, and said the word father, not matriarch, first.
“…What is going on?”
“Ah, um… .”
As if Glenn had finally realized that he had not been paying too much attention to the eyes of the people around him, he let out a low groan, relaxed his arms around the children, and stood up.
“How did you get here and why are you hugging the children…?”
Karun’s eyes trembled like a sailboat hit by a wave, as if he couldn’t believe what he was seeing.
“Your role was big. Good job.”
Glenn walked slowly and stood in front of Karun. He closed his eyes for a moment as if he was thinking, then opened them and gave Karun a light hug.
“Oh, father?”
Karun’s whole body trembled, unable to even open his eyes. I was more embarrassed than when the Black Tower master broke through the ceiling and came out.
‘Your father hugged you and praised you?’
As Glenn Sieghardt’s son, he achieved many accomplishments, but this was the first time he gave him praise like today.
I was shocked and shocked at the same time, and my head went blank.
“Matriarch.”
Raon called Glenn while holding his throbbing temple.
“It is said that all communications with the Five Emperors have been cut off. It is clearly the work of Oma, so we must move quickly…”
“Okay.”
Glenn turned around and calmly shook his head.
“Owen was attacked, but the rest of the place is safe.”
“hmm… .”
Raon frowned as he watched the Third Prince Greer from afar. As expected, while they were attacking the Black Tower, Oma seemed to have attacked Owen.
“By any chance, the guy who hit Owen… .”
“Yes. It’s Derus Robert.”
Glenn lowered his chin, saying he had been fighting with Derus Robert.
“You’ve gotten a lot stronger. I don’t think there’s anyone among the leaders of the Five Emperors that can stand up to you.”
He frowned, saying that Derus’s strength was at the highest level among the Five Hwanggoma.
‘Is that why you looked so tired?’
Now I understand why Glenn was having a hard time. He must have used up a lot of energy going to Owen to stop Derus and flying all the way here.
‘But you’ve become stronger?’
Did you receive the power of the celestials?
The time Derus disappeared was not very long. I couldn’t understand how Glenn had become strong enough to admit it in such a short period of time.
“Well, then my father… .”
Prince Greer, unable to bear it any longer, ran out and stood in front of Glenn.
“You are injured, but you are safe. “You are a strong person by nature, so you don’t have to worry.”
Glenn nodded, saying he was fully recovered.
“ha….”
The third prince sat down on the spot as if his tension had completely relaxed.
‘That’s fortunate.’
Raon sighed in relief as he looked at the Three Princes.
‘Now, we can’t afford to lose even one person.’
In order to win the war against Oma, our power cannot be reduced any further.
When I heard that Recross survived and that the other five emperors were also safe, my shaking stomach calmed down a little.
“Well, that’s strange. Only Derus hit Owen, and left the rest alone… .”
Raon frowned as he recalled the disgusting face of Derus Robert.
“If they had heard the news of our surprise attack and moved, they would have been able to attack the Magic Tower, Valkar, and the Beast League.”
Of course, there were other preparations, but if the White Blood Cult and Eden had attacked together, the entire continent would have become a battlefield, so it was suspicious that they didn’t aim for that.
“Just in case, let’s do some additional research…”
“With no information, it is impossible to determine his intentions. now… .”
Glenn slowly shook his head and hugged Raon again.
“Take a rest.”
“Yes? But… Ah.”
As he caressed my back, the fatigue from the past days came rushing back to me like waves, and my whole body lost its strength.
Wow.
Glenn’s gentle touch brought warmth to Suma, like when he was a child and fell asleep while practicing the Ring of Fire.
‘Not yet… .’
Raon fell asleep without realizing it, just like when he fell asleep next to Sylvia for the first time in a long time.
* * *
Squeak.
Glenn opened the hospital room door with a crack in the wall and went inside. He stood in front of a cute looking girl with her candy in her mouth and lifted her chin.
“Luckily you woke up.”
“Someone had a big accident and it was noisy outside? “Thanks to you, I woke up.”
Chambers narrowed his eyes as he took a bite of the candy.
“What kind of wind has blown in the ice-cold man who never showed a smile even to his family? “You hug the kids in front of everyone.”
She shook her head as if she didn’t understand.
“Are you feeling okay?”
“Thanks to the Saint of Super, all the wounds on my body have healed.”
Chambers nodded, saying that Saint Olga was surprisingly attentive to trauma.
“However, the condition of the upper hall is not good.”
She tapped her forehead, saying it was dangerous.
“Top battle… .”
Glenn let out a low groan as he stroked Chamber’s head. Even without looking closely, she could tell that her mind had been deeply shocked.
“I have to treat these wounds. “It will take quite some time.”
Chamber sighed briefly, saying it was going to be a boring time.
“Don’t worry though. You will definitely recover.”
She waved her candy-holding hand, saying she could participate in the next war.
“Of course I believe it.”
Glenn nodded calmly.
“What? Why are you so affectionate today?”
Chambers muttered something strange and rubbed his goosebump-ridden arm.
“I asked you earlier what kind of wind blew that made you hug the kids?”
Glenn pursed his lips as he looked into Chamber’s narrowed eyes.
“I met Derus Robert before I came here.”
“what…?”
Chamber’s eyes widened as if he hadn’t heard that far.
“You’re finally here! “Where was it!”
“Owen. “King Lecross suffered.”
“Seo, you’re not dead, are you?”
She threw off the covers and sat up at the sound of Recross’s words.
“I’m much better than you, don’t worry. My external and internal injuries are severe, but my lower abdomen is fine.”
Glenn told Chambers to worry about himself and laid him back on the bed.
“Haaa… .”
Chambers let out a long breath, seemingly relieved at the news that Recross was safe.
“for a moment! So, Recross was attacked by Derus? “You pathetic bastard!”
“He was strong.”
Glenn shook his head at the angry Chamber.
“It wouldn’t have been easy even if you and Recross had both gone at it.”
“… “That much?”
“okay.”
He nodded resolutely, as if he were certain of it.
“Wait, so you’re using the mind sword again?”
Chambers frowned as if he had only just noticed the change in Glenn.
“okay.”
Glenn looked out the window and let out a short breath.
“When contact with Montiro was lost and no news was received, Derus Robert told me that Raon and Karun were dead.”
“hmm… .”
Chamber chewed his molars as he looked at Glenn’s sunken eyes.
“As you know, Shimgeom is a martial arts that goes beyond even the boundaries of transcendence. He could have killed Derus or the angel next to him. But when I heard that Raon and Karun were dead, I couldn’t swing that sword to the end.”
Glenn’s wrinkled hands shook as if he was still troubled.
“But thanks to that, I realized how much I cherish Raon, Karun, and the children of the family. Isn’t that funny? I only realized it now because of the enemy’s lies?”
He raised his mouth as if laughing at himself.
“Ascension to heaven is the dream and ideal of every warrior. It was a path I also dreamed of, but now I don’t want to leave. “I want to stay in this country and watch Raon and the others grow.”
Glenn lowered his head heavily, saying that he wanted to remain on this continent even if he became weaker.
“That’s why you hugged Raon and the kids in front of the square. “Now I understand.”
Chambers smiled faintly, saying that he only now understood.
“You are very old too. “When he was young, he ignored his blood relatives and caused bloodshed, but in his later years, he just became a very affectionate grandfather.”
“Well, I don’t know what to say… .”
Glenn lowered his eyebrows as if he regretted his youth.
“But I think you can live until Raon sees his grandchildren.”
Chamber shook his head as if to tell him not to worry.
“What does that mean?”
“They say that when you ascend to heaven, you must rid yourself of all seven human desires. “They say you have to be different from other people, but you actually have human emotions, so wouldn’t you be different?”
She waved her hand as if telling me to think about it.
“hmm… .”
“And don’t just do it today, treat the kids kindly in the future as well.”
Chamber grinned, telling him not to change for just one day and to keep his current feelings.
“Because children need constant praise.”
* * *
“Umm… .”
Raon opened his eyes with difficulty. Looking out the window at the sea, it seemed like he was still in Montiro.
‘Well, that would be better.’
Saint Olga’s medical skills and divine power are not far behind Saint Frederick in Rags.
It would have been better for her to remain at Montiro and continue receiving treatment there.
-Have you finally woken up?
Lars snorted in disappointment.
‘How much did I sleep?’
-Two days.
The guy pointed out the darkened window and frowned.
-Even after reaching that level, he slept for two days, and the king’s meals were missed by 12 meals!
‘… ‘Why twelve meals?’
Raon looked at Lars with bewildered eyes.
-Three basic meals plus three snacks. Isn’t six meals a day right?
‘… … .’
In the past, they used to say they ate four meals a day, but now they eat six meals a day. I’m starting to wonder more and more if this is the devil or a carnivore.
‘Still, that’s fortunate.’
Raon chuckled as he watched Lars shouting that he was hungry.
-Thank goodness? What do you mean?
‘Every time we fight a dangerous war like this, you would come down and pour your strength into it, but now you don’t do that.’
Every time I met a transcendent being or a demon lord, I survived thanks to Ras’s intervention, but every time he used his power without regard for causality, my soul was greatly shocked.
But this time, Chamber and himself fought to the end and captured the Black Tower, and with the help of Rust and Gluttony, they were able to push Grid away as well.
It felt good to see Lars still fine even after the big fight was over.
-Uh, um… .
Lars let out a low groan as if he didn’t expect people to think of him that way.
-Look, I am the monarch of the Demon World! There is no need to worry about the likes of you!
The guy turned his head away, his face flushed red, telling me not to worry about him. He said it in a displeased tone, but it seemed like he was embarrassed.
‘okay. okay.’
Raon chuckled and lightly patted Ras’ head.
‘Where are Rust and Gluttony now?’
-Rust is….
Lars looked up into the air, his whole body trembling.
-Even now, I have turned into fog and am watching you. It’s so scary and boring, I could die… .
The guy sniffled without even looking up at the ceiling.
‘Oh, I see… .’
Raon let out a sigh of relief as he looked at the pink air currents that were faintly twinkling in the air. He felt that Rust was watching him now.
-Gluttony is going around this town eating all the food! If he doesn’t get up, we’ll run out of food!
‘It looks like he had money.’
Gluttony said he had come because he had run out of money, but it seemed as if he had come to help himself, as expected.
I keep feeling it, but the Elyos and Demons are very different from the myths handed down on this continent.
-I was worried about you until you passed out, but are you okay now?
‘Derrus? Of course I’m worried.’
It’s true that I’m still worried about why Derus was targeting Owen and why the other Omars didn’t move.
If that’s the case, he must have had intentions.
But whether you know the reason or not, all you can do now is recover your body and become stronger.
‘I need to get stronger.’
As Raon clenched his fists, vowing to climb higher, the door to the hospital room opened, and Olga came in, carrying bandages and medicine.
“Are you awake already? “My body isn’t even made of steel.”
Olga shook her head, saying it was surprising that she woke up in two days, unlike Lars.
“The wound wasn’t particularly serious.”
Raon shook his head as he examined the bandaged body.
“The physical wounds weren’t that severe, but the mental shock was great. Although not as severe as Chamberlain’s, your upper body was on the verge of collapse.”
Olga frowned, wondering what on earth he had done.
“I just fought hard. “What’s the situation outside?”
Raon turned his horse and gestured to Olga.
“It’s been sorted out to some extent. Owen’s knights have left first, and the rest are preparing to leave this place to the rearguard and return. Now that you’re awake, Sieghart will leave as well.”
Olga shook her head, saying she was the last to wake up.
“you?”
Raon narrowed his eyes as he looked at Olga’s tattoo, which had become darker.
“We should return too. The king cannot be away from the kingdom for long, right?”
Olga put her hand down, saying she would stay a little longer and then come back.
“Then let the king go, and you go with me.”
“what? What is that… .”
“Your constitution.”
Raon nodded calmly, looking at the black tattoos that covered Olga’s arms and legs.
“I can fix it now.”
