Chapter 257
Raon looked down at the red blade of the requiem sword that looked like it had been dipped in a furnace. The endlessly ringing sword sound seemed to be shouting that he wanted to become stronger.
‘You mean you can have the power of this long sword?’
The requiem sword trembled violently as if it were right.
-It’s bullshit.
Lars sneered as he looked down at the Requiem Sword from above his shoulder.
-Does a mean little creature have the ability to do that?
‘Is it that hard?’
-Your little water dagger was born to kill those trifles, so it’s only natural to erase their energy. But…
Lars looked at the long sword on the floor with sad eyes.
– Absorbing the ability contained in that long sword is different. I don’t know if it’s the original king. How could such an insignificant thing do such a thing?
The boy waved his hand, saying it was nonsense.
-Don’t waste your time and go to relieve the spectacled man’s lingering feelings.
“Hmm…”
Raon looked back. Dorian was writing down the names of warriors and wizards, so there was still plenty of time.
‘There’s nothing to lose even if I do.’
I don’t know what kind of sword it is or what name it has, but I know its ability.
magic stationmaster.
Most wizards use magic using a mana circle made in their heart. And this long sword causes a strange vibration from the blade, causing a slight obstacle to the flow of magic achieved by the Circle.
If the soul sword could really have that ability, it could have been very advantageous in the battle against the wizard.
Whoaaaaa!
Raon raised a black longsword. Even though I just grabbed it, the blood inside the sword penetrated my body. Of course, I was kicked out without being able to do anything because I was crushed by the ring of fire.
‘What should I do?’
The requiem sword made a stronger echo as if excited.
“Awake? Is that just Yogi?”
The words came out in surprise. The requiem sword was telling me to break the blade of the sword with my own blade.
Whoa!
As if the requiem sword was certain, he rang the sword again.
-You got that ability by breaking the sword?
Lars muttered something stupid and turned his head away.
-It’s meaningless.
‘Be quiet.’
Raon ignored Ra’s words and raised the soul sword.
‘It’s not difficult.’
I don’t know if it’s breaking the long sword held by the four apostles. Breaking a still long sword was no different from eating cold soup.
oh oh oh!
After raising the yogi of the soul sword as much as possible through the yogi adaptation, he struck it as it was.
Pakaaaang!
The long, dark blade of the long sword shattered like a piece of glass in the mighty spirit caused by the requiem sword.
Whoaaaaa!
Blood slowly rose from the fragmented sword. The black energy was sucked into the red blade of the Soul Sword without any resistance.
Whoa!
The requiem sword absorbed all the gases flowing out of the long sword, letting out a deep resonance as if it would not miss even the slightest bit of blood.
The requiem sword, which had absorbed all the energy of the long sword, was darker than before.
[The Soul Sword has accepted the energy of the Blood Path.]
[After the absorption is complete, a new ability is created in the Soul Sword.]
The system was also working on the Soul Sword, perhaps because it was his property.
– Wow!
Lars widened his eyes as he looked at the requiem sword.
– Can this be? Something like that!
‘It may have been weak at first, as you said, but it gradually grew.’
As Ra’s said, the Soul Sword when we first met probably didn’t have this ability. He grew up by absorbing the blood of many white-blooded Christians, and this time he had this ability because he drank the blood of the apostles and archbishops.
-Growth…
Lars frowned. It seemed that he felt a little annoyed at the ability of the requiem sword, which he called a minor creature.
‘It must mean very great.’
Seeing Rath’s reaction like that, I thought it would be good to look forward to the ability that the soul sword will have.
“Hee hee! It’s over.”
Dorian approached after getting all the signatures. He was still holding the desk above his head.
“How long are you going to carry that?”
“Until the ghost leaves.”
He turned his head left and right, not seeing Lohengrin directly above him.
“But you seem to be in a good mood?”
“okay?”
“yes. You look very excited, just like when your training is going well.”
“It has to be.”
Raon grinned at the trembling blade of the Soul Sword.
Because it hit the jackpot.
* * *
Raon was guided by Lohengrin and reached the last floor of the dungeon where his laboratory was located. However, the room did not exist and the large wall was the end.
“Do you have anything?”
Dorian knocked on the wall and kicked it, but there was no movement.
Raon nodded. Even after using Glacia to spread the feeling and even using the evil eye of anger, the wall behind the wall was just filled with rocks.
“Call the ghost quickly.”
Saying that, Dorian put the white wooden desk over his head.
[Whoops.]
Lohengrin laughed softly at the sight.
[You can’t find it, so now my side is alive.]
“As expected, it’s here.”
Lohengrin is a powerful wizard called a hero. It was no wonder that he could not find out his secret.
“How do I get in?”
[Simple. Please put your hand on the center of the wall and operate Glacia.]
“I can’t feel the energy of Glacia…”
[Because it was hidden. Give it a try.]
Raon nodded, put his hand on the wall, and operated the Glacia.
Koo Goo Goo!
A blue chill seeped through the cracks in the rock, and the wall cracked open, revealing a white room.
“Hey, this is…”
I didn’t expect it to open like this because I couldn’t feel Glacia’s energy from the wall at all.
[I used cold air like the earth attribute.]
Lohengrin pointed at the wall and smiled.
“Like the land attribute?”
[yes. Doesn’t the God of Wrath use cold as a flame? Like that, it turned the cold air into a rock.]
It seemed that it changed not only the shape of the cold air, but also the flow itself. It seemed like a possible way because he was a wizard.
[Come in.]
Raon narrowed his eyes as he looked at Lohengrin’s lab.
‘It’s a little different from what I thought.’
Contrary to expectations, the laboratory was not very large and was neatly organized without a speck of dust. It was as if a purification magic had been cast.
In this state, elixirs and artifacts would be stored without rotting. It was fortunate.
The left wall was full of books, and the right side was filled with unknown artifacts and materials in a display case. And at the center of it….
“Hey!”
Dorian screamed at the white bone lying on the desk. Baegol was wearing a blue robe embroidered with ice flowers, and round glasses flowed down.
[Hehe, this is embarrassing…]
Lohengrin, the owner of the white bone, smiled embarrassed and brushed his beard down.
[It’s embarrassing to show you.]
“No.”
As expected, Raon shook his head.
“It’s the first time I’ve seen you ghost. no you will be here Well, thank you. Thanks for pointing the way! Eh, and I’m sorry for being so arrogant, our sub-master!”
Dorian continued to bow his head at Lohengrin’s white bone as he hung over his desk.
[You are a good person.]
“But you are a fool.”
Raon smiled lightly and turned his head.
“Now tell me. What regrets do you have left?”
Looking around the lab, I couldn’t figure out what his lingering feelings were. I had to hear it through his mouth.
[The story will be long, so let’s finish with the priest’s purpose first.]
He said to take out a round golden bead and neck armor in the middle of the display case.
[The marble is an artificial power supply.]
“Artificial power supply?”
[yes. It is an artifact for those who have broken or missing Danjeon. Once connected to the mana circuit, you can use it like a real short circuit.]
“Ah…”
Raon smacked his lips.
‘I can use this.’
Rimer’s Danjeon is already in a state of ruin. If you use this artificial short circuit, you can create a new short circuit for him.
[The downside is that you have to start over. Since the Danjeon itself is being replaced, you have to collect the Aura from the beginning again. I don’t know if it’s sewage. Even if it’s short, it will be a tough time for a master.]
‘Definitely…’
It’s not an ordinary thing to fill the aura in the Danjeon. If you are at the level of Limer, you will collect your aura much faster than others, but it will be very difficult during that time.
“Then what is this?”
Raon pointed to the neck armor.
[It’s a spirit ring that restores damage to the mana circuit.]
“The mana circuit…”
[Yes. The mana circuit is torn and restores the distorted state]
“I see.”
Now I feel relieved. With these two, Rimer could be restored. But I wanted something a little more.
“Do you know how to make these two?”
I wanted to restore Sylvia as well as Rimer, so I asked with a desperate heart.
[Hmm, there is a recipe for Yeongryu-hwan, but I’m not sure I got it by chance, not myself. Sorry.]
“No. Enough.”
Raon shook his head. For now, this is enough. Knowing that there was such an artifact, one day Sylvia would be able to recover as well.
“Now tell me. What is Lohengrin’s regret?”
[Umm…]
Lohengrin paused, scratching his temples.
[I guess I’ll have to go back a bit to tell that story.]
He smiled lightly at his white bones.
[I…]
* * *
The city called Remia was destroyed overnight by the witch Merlin and her monsters.
My mother, who always smiled and stroked my hair, was scary, but deep down, my father, who was kind to me, and my friends who ran through the mountains and fields every day all became monster food in front of my eyes.
The knights who guarded the city were turned to ashes by Merlin’s flame, and the wizards of the kingdom who rushed to them were also annihilated by the witch’s magic pouring down like meteors.
Why did I survive then?
It was just because of Merlin’s desire to boast.
“Ah, I was so excited. If I kill them all, no one will tell me what I did.”
The madman told me to tell the continent that he had destroyed the city of Remia and left.
I was furious.
Like being left alone, he cursed the witch in anger at not being able to die.
He screamed and screamed that he could sell his soul to the devil if he could avenge the madman.
then he appeared
whether male or female No, a gigantic being that you can’t even tell whether it’s a demon or a god. The true sky, which is different from the witch who destroyed this city, has descended.
he asked what was going on.
My mouth opened naturally against my will.
He listened to all the stories and put on a sad expression.
Turning around as if leaving, he let go of his strength, saying he liked my last words. The power of frost to avenge the witch.
– I can’t do anything with this alone. If your anger is sincere, try it. Kill that distant thing with your own hands.
Witch Merlin.
-Anyway, if you explode your anger, your ability will grow stronger as well.
I asked him what he wanted from me. He offered to offer his soul, but was refused.
-soul? you’re fucking don’t need
I grabbed him and asked him to tell me what else he wanted.
-Study the power the king gave you! stop bothering me!
He left those words and disappeared, and I also left the city that had become ashes.
His powers were mysterious. I just got it, but I learned how to use it as naturally as breathing.
Wandering the continent, fighting during the day and studying magic and cold at night. After many days and nights, when it started to make a name for itself, I despaired again.
A stark difference from the witch Merlin. One of the strongest on the continent and the worst witch, she cried out at the difference in status.
Then He appeared again.
– What bullshit are you talking about? If you are weak, be strong. Even if you devote all four hours, it will be enough if you become strong and kill.
It was a very simple story, but to you and me, it sounded like a revelation from God.
-Why are you bothering me so much with a crappy guy who asks for a push rod or something?
Witch Merlin.
-Anyway, stop worrying about the poor guy you’d kill with the king’s snort. It’s over when you get stronger.
He clicked his tongue and disappeared, saying he was pathetic.
got stronger I practiced, studied, fought and fought again.
He grew up to the point where he wouldn’t be pushed back much even if he fought Merlin, but there was a problem.
Many strong people and monsters were following her. I could never win alone.
Gathered people to attack the witch’s castle. A small group of vengeful people like himself gathered, but most shook their heads saying that they could never win.
Everyone said you can’t do it, give up revenge.
Even my close friends said that, and even I lost my strength. I doubted if I could really get revenge, and I spent the night drinking. When the meeting for revenge was gradually fading away, he came again.
– I really can’t see it. If there are many people who are afraid of that sickness, wouldn’t it be enough if you become stronger and put everyone on their knees?
Witch Merlin.
-Those who say they can’t do it are losers. They are worms that have already bowed their knees to the world. Go with those who say you can. Because you have potential.
He waved his hand at me to stop bothering me and disappeared.
Merlin, the Witch of Betrayal who spread fear across the continent. The fear and fear disappeared thanks to him who said it was no big deal without even remembering her name.
I didn’t listen to what others said. As he said, it is not a big deal, and he gathers colleagues who believe that he can strengthen his strength and do it.
Let’s move with confidence, people who said no gathered, and those who left returned.
And on that day, exactly 40 years after the city of Remia was burned by Merlin.
My colleagues and I destroyed the witch’s castle and ended Merlin’s life.
The whole world cheered and we became heroes.
But none of that mattered to me.
I was satisfied with the fact that I succeeded in revenge that everyone shouted was impossible and comforted the dead.
A year later, when the situation was over, he came back.
– It’s really slow that it’s over now.
He didn’t even say that he did a good job, but he smiled because he was like him.
I said I would give my soul to him. Because he shouted that he wanted revenge even if he gave his life in this world and the other world to the devil.
-You’re talking nonsense again.
He sneered and waved his hand.
-I don’t need a poor soul like you. Your anger has become the king’s snack, so that’s enough.
It was absurd. As I got stronger, I knew that the being in front of me was not a human or a god. Of course I thought he would take my soul, but he didn’t want anything. I just said it was fun.
-You got that multi, so now live your life. glasses jab.
He disappeared without remembering Merlin’s name until the end. I couldn’t even say thank you, but he left without taking the strength I gave him, let alone my soul. Only then did I know That this is my true God.
I enjoyed the world for a year and made a dungeon.
reason?
Simple. Glacia’s study, which was a request she had held on to by her clothes.
I was forced to listen to that too, but I wanted to hear it at least.
He researched harder than when he was preparing for revenge and used Glacia’s cold energy.
However, like the power created by God, it was so perfect. It was almost better to give up because it was almost certain that if it was poorly modified, it would be much worse than the original.
Of course I didn’t give up.
For the one who gave her strength and guided her spirit without any cost, she devoted all her remaining time to creating a way to solidify Glacia’s coldness.
It was only one of the ways to use cold air, but this was his limit.
Now, return the chill to him and say thank you, and you’re done.
But I couldn’t get in touch with him.
It wasn’t intentionally disconnected, the connection itself didn’t work.
waited
Even after 1 year, 10 years, and 20 years, I didn’t hear from you, and my lifespan was coming to an end.
It was not a waste to die like this. It didn’t matter if the study disappeared.
It was just a pity that I couldn’t say thank you and erased it.
Could that lingering ignorance become a fire?
I was able to be reborn between death and life.
waited again
May he come back.
* * *
Raon lowered his head and bit his lip.
“Then your lingering feelings are…”
[Yes. I’m going to say thank you and tell you how to operate the Glacia that I modified in my own way.]
Lohengrin smiled, saying that’s all.
-That stupid bastard!
Lars jumped at Lohengrin, frowning.
-I told you to live your life if you dedicated your life to revenge!
Whether it was resentful or sad, Lars’ fist trembled.
[It’s really fortunate that Raon-sama came, not someone else.]
Lohengrin took Raon’s hand without seeing Lars right in front of him.
[How to operate Glacia is over there. The coldness I possess will return to him the moment I disappear.]
– You stupid glasses man! Don’t think about that, just worry about you!
Lars gnashed his teeth, saying it was an idiot. Transparent beads formed in the boy’s round eyes.
[It’s nice to meet you. I really enjoyed it after a long time.]
Lohengrin’s blurry body began to slowly erase, as if that was all there was to it.
-hey! Roen Yellow!
‘Las.’
Raon grabbed Lars and frowned.
– Let go!
‘Am I going to spend it like this?’
-what?
‘This is the last time, so are you going to send it off while being so angry?’
-Bo Bonwang…
‘I’ll lend you my body.’
I ate a big heart and said.
-what?
‘If you promise to return your body right away, I’ll lend you my body so we can talk.’
He believed in the Ras he had seen so far and the Ras who had impressed even such a hero.
– Not too big.
‘why?’
-The moment it enters your body, it will run out of control regardless of the king’s will.
‘Ah…’
Raon bit his lip. Lars had said in the past that his soul and body would run out of control because they had been separated for too long.
-Instead…
* * *
Lohengrin felt his body warm. It felt like my heart was beating and blood was flowing in my blood, just like when I had a physical body.
‘Now it’s really time to go.’
Is it because I have clearly sorted out my lingering feelings? relaxed. It was unfortunate that I couldn’t see Lars, but it was inevitable. I was satisfied with expressing my gratitude to his priest.
I’m tired. For the first time since becoming this body, I felt tired. When I closed my eyes, it felt like I could never open them again.
It was the last time I was about to close my eyes when I saw a priest who somehow resembled him.
Quaaaaaaaa!
On Raon’s shoulder. No, his whole body was burning with blue flames of anger. My eyes flashed with anger comparable to the first time I saw him.
– He is a fool.
[All of you…]
I’m sure. He was the only one who had such a noble and vulgar tone of voice.
[La Ras?]
“The king must have said it. live your life Who told you to do something stupid and frustrating like this?”
[Heh heh heh!]
Laughter came out. I thought he would say that.
“What is funny! Glasses jab!”
[You may not want it, but this is my way of life. God.]
“Since I saw it before, I couldn’t help but feel pathetic. Dumb guy!”
Lohengrin just laughed at the curse. He smiled as if he was happy at this moment.
[Still, I was happy to meet you. God.]
“…”
Lars didn’t answer for a moment. He smiled lightly and raised his head. A small warmth bloomed in the eyes of anger.
“Are you really happy?”
[I was happy thanks to you. Thank you.]
“Then… it was done.”
Lars lightly shook his hand.
“Roen Yellow. Good job. Let’s see again.”
[Yes!]
Lohengrin nodded immediately. He had a perfectly happy smile. It slowly sank, scattering blue frost like the soft starlight.
Raon calmed down the anger he received from Lars only after Lohengrin’s frost completely melted on his palm.
‘Are you satisfied?’
-thanks.
Lars nodded, saying thank you, which is rare. With her pupils, she followed the empty space where Lohengrin had disappeared. He’s really not like a demon king.
“Then the remaining items…”
A message flashed in front of her eyes as she was about to tell Dorian to pack the remaining items.
[The abilities of Lohengrin’s thoughts are absorbed.]
[The attribute < Affinity with water property > is created.] [
The knowledge of Glacia that Lohengrin possessed is engraved.]
[All stats increase by 6 points.]
– ?
“?”
Raon and Lars tilted their heads at the same time.
-That’s why you…
‘I don’t know.’
Of course, Lohengrin’s ability, which he thought would go to Lars’ body, penetrated into his own body. I could feel the energy of Glacia accumulated in the Danjeon getting stronger.
– Oh no! Does this make sense! The original king should hand it over and the original king should take it back! Why am I going to you!
‘You have to tell me that…’
-Hey, son of a bitch! If not you, tell someone!
Lars screamed that he couldn’t stand it any longer.
-Why did that go into your snout!
‘No, we liked it. With touching acting…’
-Shut up!
