Chapter 452
When Raon arrived in front of Gajujeon, he saw Baekryundae crossing the main building.
“It looks like a real loser.”
As Dorian said, Baekryundae was weak in walking like soldiers who lost the war.
“So that’s what I said. It seems to have been lost.”
Dorian leaned over and whispered softly.
“hmm? Wait…”
Raon looked at Baengnyeondae and narrowed his eyes.
‘Did I really get beaten up?’
Upon closer inspection, all of the Baekryundae swordsmen were wearing bandages all over the place.
‘Who did you fight?’
There would have been no more enemies there.
I dealt with both the Black Tower and the White Wyvern, but I couldn’t guess what kind of enemy I was fighting.
“uh?”
Raon licked his lips and looked at Baengnyeondae again, then frowned.
‘I was even hit by an iron?’
As if Irond had been badly beaten, his head and half of his face were scorched, and he was wearing a thick bandage from his right shoulder to his waist.
He seemed to be the most seriously injured in Baengnyeondae.
“Are you really hurt?”
Dorian groaned, now realizing that their injuries were real.
“therefore.”
Raon nodded slowly.
‘Did they even fight the main force of the Black Tower?’
I don’t want to admit it, but the current Baengnyeondae is a little stronger than the Gwangpungdae.
It was amazing that people who would be called strong wherever they went were broken like that.
‘But why didn’t a single person die?’
Curiously, although all were badly injured, none seemed to be dead. It was a strange situation in many ways.
While he was thinking of enemies that might be in the Hofireun area, Irond approached the Gajujeon.
“Umm…”
Irond glared at me and frowned like a crumpled piece of paper.
“What happened?”
Raon looked at the bandage wrapped around Irond’s shoulder and lifted his chin slightly.
“Last time I saw you, you were playing hide and seek. I guess someone caught you?”
When fighting Baekrangdo, he did not come out until the end and raised his mouth thinly, mocking that he was hiding.
“…I don’t know.”
Irond gnashed his teeth and went into Gajujeon.
Baengnyeondae followed him without even looking this way as if he was embarrassed.
“Hmm…”
Raon smiled lightly and followed behind Baengnyeondae. It spread a thin curtain so that those ahead did not notice.
“Let’s go too.”
“Where are you going?”
Dorian freaked out and grabbed his sleeve.
“We need to make sure they report properly.”
“It’s in front of the family head, so he’ll take care of himself.”
“no. It was an open lie.”
Raon dragged Dorian and chased after Baengnyeondae.
– I’m sorry.
Lars tapped his shoulder hard.
-Revenge is futile. Don’t do anything stupid and let’s go get some ice cream.
‘…That’s what the Lord of Wrath would say?’
I didn’t know that the demon king would tell me not to, let alone urge revenge. It looks like he’s really hungry for ice cream.
However, if it wasn’t now, it would be hard to see Irond’s face ruined, so I had to follow suit.
-please! The ice cream parlor is closing!
‘Then, the second set tomorrow.’
-It’s Cole! Revenge is a must! cancer! The Demon King’s revenge is not too late even if it takes 1000 years!
Lars cheered and walked away.
-Then you can choose eight. First of all, if you choose only 4 mint chocolate and choose chocolate and strawberry pineapple flavors in one of the flavors of the month… it’s not enough?
‘…’
Now I’m really tired of him.
Raon let out a short sigh and stood in front of the audience room along Baengnyeondae.
As soon as Irond approached, the door opened and Loen came out.
“You worked hard. Please go in.”
“thank you.”
Loen motioned for him to enter, and after Irond bowed his head to him, he entered the throne room.
After Baekryundae was all in, when Loen was about to close the door, he approached him.
“Lord of the Storm Troops?”
Rowen wasn’t surprised, but he tilted his head as if he was surprised.
“What happened today…”
“Gwangpungdae and Baekryundae have the same mission, so of course I have to participate.”
Raon went out confidently as if an iron plate had been put on his face.
“Heh heh heh.”
Roen smiled and turned his head inward.
I followed his gaze and looked up at the throne on the platform. Glenn nodded slightly as if he was okay.
“Come in.”
Rowen smiled and politely raised his hand.
“thank you.”
After greeting Loen, Raon stood in front of the column like the executives waiting for their reports.
“I see the head of the household.”
Since he wasn’t the main character of today’s report, he said in a low voice and lowered his head.
“I see the head of the family!”
Dorian wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and bent his back so that it was at a right angle.
“Um…”
Glenn nodded as if he was annoyed, accepting the greeting.
“Yeah, why are you here…”
Irond rolled his eyes and trembled his lips as if he was embarrassed.
“Don’t worry about me, just watch and start.”
Raon shrugged and pointed to the throne.
“I see the head of the family!”
The Irond and Baekryundae swordsmen bowed their heads to Glenn. However, their trembling eyes were still looking at Raon.
“Irond.”
Glen looked down at Irond and the Baekryundae swordsman who knelt down with cold eyes.
“I heard that the Baekryundae did not fight with the Black Tower or the White Police, but what does it look like?”
He frowned as he scanned the Baengnyeondae, which seemed to have become the defeated soldiers themselves.
“That’s true…”
Irond raised his head while biting his lip.
“I was attacked not by the Black Tower, but by Eden.”
“Eden?”
“yes. Eden’s Mermaid has attacked suddenly.”
He said Merlin’s name and let out a deep sigh.
‘…Merlin?’
As soon as Raon heard the name Merlin, he felt goose bumps run down his spine.
‘Could it be that he was there?’
The probability of Baekryundae colliding with Merlin by chance is extremely low.
It was clear that Merlin, who followed him, did not like Irond’s words and actions, so he attacked him first.
-That perverted stalker was there?
Lars, too, must have been shocked, and his lips trembled. Maybe I didn’t feel it because I was thinking about ice cream.
“for a moment.”
Cheryl, who was standing behind Glenn, raised her hand.
“I know Merlin’s skills well. It is a monster that continues to increase its magic power and magic level.”
Cheryl narrowed her eyebrows as if it didn’t make sense.
“The madman ambushed, and how did no one die?”
Irond closed his fists until they bled and opened his mouth.
“That’s the truth…”
* * *
After taking a break, Irond left the Hopirun area with Baekryundae.
‘That cheeky bastard. He said something, so he won’t refuse a confrontation.’
After returning to the family, I was walking thinking about the plan to apply for a gladiator fight with Raon, when the sky suddenly became dark as if night had come.
“hmm?”
When I raised my head, there was a monster wearing an old woman’s mask floating under the black clouds.
“Mer Merlin!”
Recognizing that it was Eden’s Merlin, she drew her sword right away, but she didn’t attack and was picking petals in the air.
“kill. Let it go. kill. Let it go. kill. Let it go. kill. Let it go. Kill it!”
Merlin cheered as he tossed the flower with all its leaves.
“In this case, it is 2 vs 2. I can’t help it. I’ll finish it right before I die. Because I think you’d better leave it as food for him.”
When she said that she would end it right before she died, countless magic circles appeared in the dark clouds.
Whoa!
Brilliant light emanated from the magic circle and various types of magic began pouring down like rain.
“statement!”
“statement!”
At Irond’s instruction, the Baekryundae quickly conducted a defensive examination.
Jiji Jijik!
However, because it was not properly established, but was urgently operated, Merlin’s magic lightly broke the flow of examination, like an awl piercing paper.
“Damn it!”
Even though Irond gritted his teeth and opened the curtain of the river, he could not stop Merlin’s magic from falling like a shower.
Koo Goo Goo!
Magic of various attributes exploded on top of the collapsed wall of aura, and the inside of the checkup became an abyss.
“Quaaaaaagh!”
“Cuck!”
“Uh-uh…”
The Baekryundae swordsmen couldn’t keep their heads in the exploding magic and bounced off in all directions.
“You mad witch!”
Irond did not care whether the fallen men died or not, and stood back with strong energy wrapped around his body.
“huh. yes the witch Crazy is right.”
As Merlin giggled and snapped her fingers, the magic circles behind her were connected like a spider’s web, emitting a magnificent light.
Kwagwagwagwa!
The magic circle wrapped in thicker and thicker mana fell like a meteor shower.
“Keugh!”
Irond tried to escape, but Merlin’s magic only followed him like it had eyes.
“There is no point in running away. Because it has an induction function.”
Merlin sighed and smiled.
“Shit!”
Irond stopped walking and turned around. The blue aura split a huge fireball with a blazing sword.
Chow ah!
Like the owner of Baengnyeondae, his swordsmanship formed a subtle flow and cut through all the magic that surged like waves.
But Merlin’s magic knew no bounds. As if her magic power was infinite, she continued to cast strong magic.
“Turn it off!”
Irond groaned. As the aura ran out, Kang Ki’s shield crumbled and magic began to explode over his bare body.
Kwagwagwang!
There was a severe burn on the right shoulder that was hit by the fireball, and frostbite appeared on the left shoulder where the spear of cold was pierced.
The shock of the magic falling in succession even wore internal wounds, and blood flowed down from his mouth.
“not there yet.”
Even though Merlin could kill himself, he did not show his real skills and only used a moderate level of magic, causing only pain and shock.
“Euuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…”
Irond lifted his head weakly with his sword in the ground.
“Kill the Lord.”
I couldn’t do anything because my aura and stamina were low, but Merlin was still alive.
Just when she thought there was no way to do it due to the huge difference in skill, her magic became transparent.
Bubbeobuck!
After Merlin condensed mana into a fist-sized body, he began pounding his body like a punching bag.
At the same time, more than ten blows came in, and I couldn’t come to my senses. My head went blank from the endless pain.
“Keo-eo-eok!”
It was only after Irond collapsed vomiting blood that the bundles of mana scattered into the air.
“Don’t mock Joe, kill him!”
He gritted his teeth and told him to kill him, but Merlin shook his head.
“Is this enough to kill half of them?”
Merlin smiled and waved his hand.
“I’ll take care of the rest.”
After she said those words, she disappeared as a small light.
“Huh…”
Irond vomited blood as he looked at the clearing sky again.
“What the hell is this…”
* * *
“…That’s how it happened.”
Irond told me what had happened except that he tried to run away from his subordinates and that he had succumbed to Merlin.
“Half and half? What does that mean?”
Glenn straightened his beard and narrowed his eyes.
“I don’t know either.”
Irond shook his head heavily.
“Right.”
Cheryl rubbed her chin slowly.
“I see you’re crazy. That madwoman is right.”
She nodded, saying that Merlin could do that.
“Huh…”
Raon closed his eyes while holding onto his forehead.
‘It’s because of me.’
She seemed to hit the petal point to kill the irond that bumped into her.
I said half and half, so it seemed like I killed and left it, and then it came out the same, and I killed only half of it and left.
Chills ran down my spine as if I had entered an ice cave.
“Even after being tossed around by the enemy and defeated, I came back with no face. sorry.”
“sorry!”
Irond bowed his head to ask Glenn to kill him. Baekryundae swordsmen also bent their backs like that.
“Wake up.”
Glenn let out a low voice and flicked his knuckles.
“If you have been fooled and defeated by the enemy, improve your skills so that you and your subordinates will never go through such a thing again. That is the mindset that a person standing at the top should have.”
“I will keep that in mind.”
Irond chewed his molars and lowered his head.
“Then report what happened before.”
“All right. I’m on a search mission…”
He stood up and began to report what had happened.
“The wind turbine arrived late when we finished exploring the two lakes.”
Irond’s gaze turned to Raon. He continued with a wink as if to quietly move on.
“The two have never touched hands before, so we decided to move each other…”
“It’s not like that.”
Raon cut Irond off with a cheerful voice.
“You obviously said you wanted to move together.”
“What are you talking about? You and I separately…”
“That was after that. You said let’s move together but divide the prosecutors one by one and spread it.”
“Umm…”
When I asked if he had forgotten that, Irond couldn’t answer and his fingertips trembled.
“I remember that you said to make the swordsmen move one by one and throw them as bait. Did you hear that too?”
Raon stabbed Dorian with his elbow.
“Turn it off, that’s right!”
Dorian nodded with a pale face.
“bait?”
A cool aura bloomed in Cheryl’s eyes.
“Um…”
Glenn’s eyes narrowed as if he felt uncomfortable at the word bait.
“What bait are you talking about?”
“It’s not a bait…”
“That place was already where the iron guards were kidnapped, so they said that if they moved one by one, they would be easily exposed to the enemy. . He said he didn’t care if a weak subordinate died.”
Raon lightly explained what had happened there with a voice mixed with laughter.
“Irond…”
Sheryl glared at Irond, furrowing her brow.
“Oh no. I was confident enough to get it! In order to rescue them quickly after a lot of time has passed since Cheoljeondae was kidnapped…” “
I told you then, but how large is the Hopireun area?
As Irond hurriedly shook his hand, Raon interjected with a smile.
“For now… continue.”
Glenn snapped his finger to continue, as if weighing things up after the report was over.
“I see. After deciding to move separately from the Gwangpungdae, we headed straight for the village…” ”
That’s not even true.”
Raon waved his hand.
“There was a clue I noticed, so I was going to tell you, but you didn’t listen.”
“What are you talking about!”
“I felt the presence of people from the side of the Ice Lake, so I was going to suggest that we encircle them together, but they said we decided to move separately and told us to do it ourselves.”
While saying that, he pointed at the Baekryundae unit leader right behind Irond.
“Didn’t the vice-captain hear?”
“That’s…”
Budaeju couldn’t answer and swallowed dry saliva, but that was the answer.
oh oh oh!
Cheryl glared at Irond with reddened eyes, as if irritated beyond her limit.
If it wasn’t for Glenn, he would have pulled out his sword right away.
“next.”
Even Glenn’s voice was cold.
“After that, while searching here and there, I confirmed that demonic energy had burst out of the ice lake and ran. But at that time, everything was over…”
“That’s not even true.”
Raon calmly raised his hand as if teasing Irond.
“Did you hide in the tree and watch me and Baekrangdo fight?”
“It was to prepare for any unforeseen circumstances. In case Baekrangdo or Hyeolun-gyeom run away or other guys come…”
Irond also came up with an excuse this time, as if he had sorted out his thoughts in advance.
However, that was the reason why the gap was pierced.
“That makes no sense.”
I shook my head slowly.
“The tree where Dae-ju was hiding was in the direction where the road was blocked. They’re not stupid, and they’re not going to run that way. Even if others come, it will be too late if they try to help from afar.”
“That’s… Whoops!”
Irond stopped trying to make an excuse.
“Ah…”
His complexion turned yellow as he met Glenn and Cheryl’s sad blue eyes.
Raon nodded his head in satisfaction with a sly smile similar to Rimer.
‘You look good.’
I missed you.
