Chapter 587 Shi
Yan lifted her slightly trembling eyelids. An emotion like joy bloomed in the blue eyes that had always been sunken.
‘Everything has changed.’
When I was practicing resonance a little while ago, I felt like the world and I were connected as one. It was only a moment, but it was clear that something inside me had changed.
‘A gap opened up.’
Tiny cracks appeared in the solid wall that had always blocked the path to my soul. I felt like if I could dig into that gap, I could merge my will with the world.
“Haaa…”
Siyan let out a shaky breath and tilted to the floor.
‘I finally reached it.’
All my life, I have walked through a dark cave with no end in sight.
I forced my feet to move in despair as to where the end of this cave would be, but it felt like I finally saw a light leading to the exit. My entire body was so weak that it was difficult to even lie down.
‘It’s okay if you don’t give up…’
To be honest, it was like giving up, but thanks to my idol Raon, I was able to strengthen my will for the last time. It is no exaggeration to say that this achievement was achieved thanks to that.
‘I have to tell you tomorrow… ah.’
Siyan stopped while rubbing her heart as she thought about Raon.
‘Then I thought I felt Raon’s energy…’
A warmth and coolness similar to Raon’s aura bloomed at the same time in the crack that appeared in the wall blocking the soul.
‘no way.’
Raon put an auror inside me and examined the inside of my body, saying he could change my current state. It seemed that the remaining aurors at that time had broken the wall that was imprisoning the soul.
Siyan put her hands together and smiled softly.
‘It was all thanks to Raon…’
It was time to get up, promising myself that I would say thank you when I see him tomorrow.
“Siyan! come out!”
The door shook as if it would break, and Rimmer’s harsh voice was heard. Unlike when he came a moment ago, his voice was full of urgency.
“Oh brother?”
Siyan instinctively realized that a big problem had arisen and immediately opened the door.
“Why are you doing this?”
“Come out now! “The barrier has been broken!”
“Barrier?”
I followed Rimmer’s gaze and looked up into the air. In the great forest, the barrier of the World Tree that hides and protects Seifia was melting.
“What is this…”
The strong barrier that I thought could never be broken was falling into pieces so small that it seemed pointless.
“I don’t have time to appreciate it.”
Rimmer hugged the waist of Siyan, who was standing blankly, with his left arm and ran in the direction of Sterin’s house.
“What the hell is going on!”
“I don’t know yet.”
As if trying to cool off the heat of the fire spreading throughout the forest, he moved faster and looked at the collapsing barrier.
‘It’s not just the entrance, it’s all open.’
And that too naturally, not by force.
It seemed that the people breaking this barrier were of the same race.
‘Is there a traitor in Seifia?’
The moment I finished organizing my thoughts, I saw Stelin’s house. A gap in the barrier hiding the World Tree was opened.
Rimmer looked at the gap in the barrier that opened with blue light and gestured to Shiyan.
“You stay right next to the World Tree.”
The barrier that protects the World Tree has a level of durability that is different from the barrier that hides Seifia.
There were elders and guardians inside who stood guard to protect Sterin, so it was no exaggeration to say that it was the safest place in Seifia.
“Rimer!”
As soon as the road leading to the World Tree was opened, the Great Elder came out.
“What the hell is going on!”
“I think there’s a traitor.”
“Ship traitor?”
“If you see that the grandfather opened the barrier and set fire as soon as he entered the ritual, it means that there is a traitor inside.”
Rimmer told me exactly what he had summarized on his way here.
“Well, that certainly seems likely.”
Unlike the old man, the elder was quick to accept Rimer’s opinion.
“Whoa…”
He chewed his lip as he looked at Stelin’s motionless body.
“We must let all of Seifia’s compatriots into this place.”
Rimmer waved his hand to open the barrier.
“It is impossible.”
The Great Elder shook his head resolutely.
“Didn’t you say with your own mouth that there was a traitor? “I don’t even know who the traitor is, but I can’t handle it if I accept everyone and a problem arises with the Guardian or the World Tree.”
“But are you going to leave it like this and burn all your compatriots to death?”
Rimmer frowned as he looked at the Grand Elder.
“I will stop it. “Let everyone in first!”
“Your grandfather could be in danger!”
“If you were my grandfather, you would have done it like I did!”
“Hmm…”
The elder did not refute, as if he thought that was correct, but he did not say anything about letting his compatriots in.
“Haa….”
Rimmer couldn’t open his mouth easily because it was difficult to choose this time. When there was a brief lull, an arrow flew and stuck at the feet of the two men.
“It’s Raylan’s arrow.”
“Is that him?…”
Rimmer unfolded the paper folded by the arrow. Information about the current situation was written in red letters, possibly in blood.
“It wasn’t a traitor inside!”
He clenched his fists when he saw the information that the defectors had broken the barrier.
“Elder.”
“All of Huu Seifia’s compatriots are accepted into the second barrier. Right Now!”
“Grand Elder?”
The other elders’ eyes widened in surprise at the elder’s instructions.
“Even defectors cannot easily break the barrier that protects the World Tree. “The best way is to fight with the power of the World Tree inside the barrier.”
“You finally say the right thing.”
Rimmer nodded loudly and snapped his fingers.
“What are you doing! “Hurry out and bring everyone!”
“Oh yeah!”
The guardians who were standing blankly nodded and ran outside.
“Oh brother! “What about Raon?”
Siyan crawled over on trembling legs and asked about Raon.
“don’t worry.”
Rimmer pointed with his finger at the entrance to Seifia, where a fierce fire was burning. A silver halo of light spread in the sky, and the flames and smoke that seemed to engulf the entire forest froze in a single moment as if they had been cut into pieces.
“Because that guy doesn’t die.”
* * *
Raon frowned as he looked at the enemies standing in front of him.
‘Was it Eden after all?’
The man wearing red flames like a coat was wearing a one-horned lizard helmet. The only crazy people who wear such vivid monster-shaped helmets are the Ghosts of Eden.
‘Strong.’
I felt a higher status and momentum than myself, who had become a grand master. It felt like my skin would all be burned by the powerful heat penetrating my fire resistance.
‘That alone is too much…’
Raon frowned and looked at the ashen-skinned elves sitting next to the Ghost of Eden.
‘Even those strange elves.’
The elf’s beautiful appearance remains the same, but its skin is dark gray, like a corpse, and is engulfed not by the energy of nature, but by a gloomy energy that seems to surround it with death. I felt like I was seeing a necromancer.
“You came quickly.”
I turned around when I heard Erian’s voice trailing off. Both of his arms were covered in ooze from burns and had huge holes, as if they had been pierced by an arrow. It was a relief to be alive.
‘I wasn’t trying to fight, I was trying to protect.’
Erian’s walking method is special. Even if they couldn’t beat them, they could have taken some time by running away, but looking at them in that state, it seemed like they were holding out from the front to protect the entrance to Seifia. It was great mental strength.
“Erian….”
“I’m fine. Instead, look at the enemy.”
Erian seemed to have overcome the pain with his mental strength and chanted to look at the enemy, not at himself.
“That helmet. “It is Ifrit’s helmet.”
“Ifrit…?”
Raon asked back with his eyes wide open.
“Ifrit is the fire spirit king?”
“That’s right…”
Erian nodded weakly.
“It is clear when you look at the red flame that burns everything and the appearance of that helmet. “It has the power of Ifrit, the Spirit King of Fire.”
“So…”
As Raon chewed his lips in embarrassment, a red flame burst out through the silver aurora.
-Hmm…
Ras, who had been struggling a little while ago saying he was hungry, whetted his appetite as he looked at Ifrit’s helmet.
-You definitely have the energy of a fiery guy.
‘Are you really saying that he is the Spirit King of Fire?’
-That’s right. However…
the guy made a thin sneer.
-Compared to the original fire fighter, he is ridiculously weak. It seems like I haven’t inherited the proper power.
After hearing those words, I looked at Ifrit’s helmet again.
‘Obviously…’
The Spirit King would have been at a fairly high level in transcendence, but the guy in front of me felt like he was only at the level of a grand master.
It was clear that he was stronger than me, but he was too weak to say that he had inherited the power of the Fire Spirit King.
“Red Flame Demon.”
The ashen-skinned elf standing in the center frowned as she looked at Ifrit’s helmet.
“What are you doing?”
She shook her head as if she didn’t like the red flame ghost standing blankly.
“Then what about that elf?”
“He is a traitor to Seifia. “My name is Cassandra.”
Erian gritted his teeth as he looked at Cassandra.
“betrayer?”
“okay. “The people who left because the path was different from Seifia came back as traitors.”
He let out a laugh, saying he didn’t know that the favor would be returned with vengeance.
‘Is that the defector…’
I remembered what Rimmer had said about the defectors before the purification ceremony. He said he left because there was a disagreement, but now that I look at it, it seems like the race has completely changed.
“Red Flame Demon!”
At Cassandra’s shout, the Crimson Demon’s eyes flashed as if they were surrounded by hellfire.
“There’s something strange about that person.”
The red flame frowned as he looked at Raon. His intense eyes wavered slightly.
“You think it’s strange?”
“It feels much bigger than the force it possesses. “Are you really human?”
He twitched his finger, wondering if the dragon had changed.
“It’s a dragon and all….”
“It can’t be a dragon. “That person is a dragon slayer who killed a dragon.”
As Cassandra frowned at the Red Flame Demon, a calm voice came from behind them. It was a voice I felt I had heard somewhere before.
A man wearing a red snake helmet walked out from among the bushes that were turning to ash and sinking.
‘That helmet…’
Except for the red color, it was exactly the same as the Golden Mask Temple’s helmet that he had seen when he was kidnapped to Eden.
“Gold-faced temple?”
“The Golden Mask Master is dead. “I am a red devil.”
He called himself the Red Flame Demon and stood next to the Red Flame Demon.
“Leave this place to us and go do your own thing.”
The Red Devil raised his finger and pointed at Seifia. The entire barrier seemed to have been burned, so the entrance to Seifia was still visible.
‘Doing what needs to be done?’
Raon frowned as he looked at the red flame demon and the red demon.
‘Aren’t we just here to attack?’
The best way to destroy Seifia would be for the gray elf, the red flame demon, and the three red demons to join forces to kill me, but they tried to send the red flame demon first. It seemed like he had other plans.
‘Then I can’t send it.’
Raon applied enough force to his thighs to leave a deep mark and drew a frost kite at the red flame demon that was trying to disappear. The silver blade and the frost blade that followed it like a shadow poured towards the Scarlet Flame Demon’s neck.
Hahaha!
The Red Flame Demon raised a shield of flame on his forearm and blocked both of Frostyeon’s slashes at the same time. Flame and cold clashed, and white steam filled the air.
“This guy…”
“You didn’t even say hello, where are you going?”
Raon stepped on the right angle with his left foot. The center of Muhak is the lower body. He connected the center of gravity raised from the bottom with the blade of the Jecheon Sword and performed the Snow Wind Blade.
Cheeeeee!
One swing continued from the first to the fifth, and a blue flash stretched across the blade of the Jecheon Sword.
Hahaha!
A brilliant ray of light shattered the Crimson Demon’s shield and rushed towards its heart.
Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Just before the blade pierced the red-hot skin, the blade of the Jecheon Sword was pushed to the right. It’s not a red flame. The arrows of the Red Devil and Cassandra, who were standing next to him, hit the Jecheon Sword.
“Go quickly. “Your location is not here.”
Jeoksa-gwi motioned to Hong-yeom-gwi to move quickly.
“Don’t kill him. “I’ll come back and burn it.”
The red flame glared at Raon as if he were going to kill him, then moved in the direction where Seifia was. The man’s body, engulfed in red flames, moved at an incredible speed.
“I can’t go.”
Raon stepped on the Three Treasures of Taehwa and followed up next to the Red Flame Demon.
They tried to trap the Red Flame Demon by creating a fire spirit with the Frost Tree placed on the tip of the Jecheon Sword, but the Red Demon Master’s sword strike and Cassandra’s arrow broke the tree that had not fully bloomed.
Ugh!
In the end, the Hongyeom-gwi removed Hwaryeong and entered Seifia.
Tsk.
Raon clicked his tongue briefly as he looked at Jeokgwisa and Cassandra.
“I don’t like being obsessed.”
“I have work to do here too. “Please take a look.”
“Do you want to die that quickly?”
“Actually, I kind of want to die.”
The Red Devil smiled and swung his sword.
“You are very mistaken.”
Raon approached the Red Demon Master, creating a red air current above the Jecheon Sword.
“Do you think you two can stop me?”
“Your arrogance is sky-high.”
Cassandra furrowed her brows deeply, as if she was irritated.
“He’s basically like that.”
The Red Devil shrugged his shoulders and tightened his grip on his sword. Looking at him talking like that, it seemed like he was actually a gold-faced priest who only changed his mask.
“I feel like I’m proud of catching a dragon, but that’s what the Pirate King did anyway…”
Raon stepped on Taehwaibo the moment the Jeokgwisa opened his mouth. He went so fast that his vision became dark for a moment and stabbed the Jecheon sword that was placed in the middle.
Cartoon baller Cheonhwa.
Jeokseomsapsipsigyeol.
Blades of flame piercing thirty-six directions wrapped around the entire body of the Red Demon Master.
Cassandra’s hand moved as the red demon’s eyes trembled as she realized that there was no escape hole anywhere. As I swung the bow without an arrow like a sword, a black energy like magical energy spread out fiercely.
Hahaha!
Thanks to Cassandra’s quick reaction, the Red Devil was able to escape the Red Island Thirty-Six Gyeol with only cuts to his right shoulder and thigh.
However, his eyes were twitching as if he had encountered death.
“Ha, it wasn’t that long, but you’ve become incredibly strong.”
The Jeokgwisa laughed as if he was dumbfounded.
Boom!
Raon fiercely kicked the ground as if he wasn’t going to give him time to move his mouth. He followed to the left of the Red Ghost Master who had retreated and placed a flame sheath on his sword.
“joy!”
Cassandra twists her fingers and fires six arrows. The arrows collided with each other as they flew, and the trajectory was so difficult that it was difficult to follow the trajectory.
‘It’s great archery, but…’
I can’t even follow the guardian’s footsteps.
Raon resonated with the ring of fire and pulled out the requiem sword with his left hand.
Using Yogi, he spread a wall of prayer beads to block five threatening arrows, and kicked the last arrow flying at him with his foot.
Ugh!
Using the momentum of the arrow, I reached the front of Jeokgwisa Temple even more accurately.
“Ugh!”
The Jeokgwisa is embarrassed and stabs his sword. A sharp sword strike tried to pierce his heart, but he ignored it and tightened his grip.
Raon Sieghart Ryu Swordsman.
Type 3 Eungeommong.
The blade, vaguely drawn like a dream, grazed the neck of the Red Devil.
“Oh, oh…”
Jeokgwisa clenched his hands tightly to block the red line drawn on his neck, but he could not catch the blood that was bursting out.
Oh my.
The body of the red ghost who lost his head falls backwards.
“I really have become a monster…”
The Red Demon Master’s lips trembled without losing his smile even as he died.
“But the plan doesn’t go astray. This will be the last time I see you…”
“That won’t happen.”
Raon ignored the Jeokgwisa’s words and looked at Cassandra. A red lightning flashed in his eyes as he brushed off the blood flowing from the Jecheon Sword.
“Now it’s your turn.”
