Episode 239
Raon narrowed his eyes as he looked at Rimmer who lifted his chin.
“Are you saying we should practice swordsmanship here?”
“of course.”
He clasped his four fingers together as if telling him to come right away.
“Thank you in advance for your help. But…”
Raon shook his head as he looked at the jecheon sword in his hand.
“As I said, this swordsmanship is not perfect. I still can’t control my strength.”
He couldn’t properly control the sound sword he used earlier, which also affected the Gwangpungdan group behind him. The first swordsmanship was more difficult to operate than the second and could be dangerous.
“uh? Are you worried about me now?”
Rimer furrowed his eyebrows and thrust his face in.
“I do not know? don’t you know me? I’m Rimmer! It’s me! It’s me!”
He spat out the word “I” six times in less than a second as if he was being ridiculous.
“Hmm…”
Raon licked his lips.
‘You’re strong, of course you know. But…’
I don’t believe it.
It is still a long way to catch up with Rimmer. I can’t figure out how to defeat him who used the sword realization. However, trust was not good because his usual behavior looked like a loose man.
“I have the original eyes. Don’t worry and jump on it. I will tell you what to live and what to kill.”
Rimer gently turned his neck and drew the sword from his waist.
“You guys take a good look too. It was fortunate to see Raon’s sword up close like this. I think I will analyze each and every one and eat them.”
He grinned, telling the Gwangpungdan member behind him to turn on the light in his eyes and watch.
“yes!”
“All right!”
The members of the Gwangpungdan abandoned their work and sat down to concentrate their attention. When I was flustered and saw that my eyes were sparkling with excitement, they were also prosecutors.
“All right.”
Raon let out a thin breath and put the Jecheon sword into the scabbard.
‘If I’m going to do it, I’ll do it properly.’
The current swordsmanship is different from the existing swordsmanship, which overpowers the enemy with speed. Because it is a new type of swordsmanship that cuts the enemy’s throat by harmonizing sound and illusion, it was necessary to understand the enemy’s behavior well.
“Whoa.”
After organizing his thoughts, Raon closed and opened his eyes and took a deep breath. He gripped his sword bottle with calm eyes like a lake illuminated by a red moon.
“going.”
* * *
Rimer gave a faint smile as he looked at Raon holding the sword.
‘Roughly expected.’
Raon said that he would make a swordsmanship using Hwangeom and Eumgeom. Considering the swordsmanship he had shown before and the way he had trained so far, it was obvious what kind of swordsmanship it would be.
‘After disturbing the vestibular organ with sound, they will aim for vital points with a phantom sword.’
Drumstick has the ability to block sound before it penetrates the nervous system. Instead of severing the nerves as before, Raon will stimulate the vestibular organ with sound and then aim at several vital points with the sword.
‘There’s no need to worry, so come properly.’
Rimer slowly operated his aura and smacked his lips.
‘Good eyes.’
Raon’s eyes were terrifying as if he was aiming for an enemy. He was a guy I really liked because he had a good personality when he did it.
Raon’s hands move as if he’s finished concentrating. Lightly grip the Jecheon Sword and stretch it out. I listened to hear properly. I expected the sword to explode, but the sword shuddered like a growl of a very small, young beast.
Got the card!
The moment the grotesque sound reached my ears, the hairs on my body stood on end. The sunken heart beat randomly.
‘Be quick.’
The aura contained in the sound burrows into my ears. Speed that is difficult to defend unless you are at the master level. The sound was smaller than the sword I had heard before, but the speed was incomparable.
‘This is…’
Rimer frowned. It is not to the extent that the vestibular system is shaken. Hearing diminished. The sound itself didn’t sound right.
‘Is it reducing the enemy’s hearing and making a follow-up?’
It was a surprising method of sound sword, but this level does not work for masters. Rimer looked down at Raon’s Phantom Sword, which was fired at almost the same time as the sound.
Chiyiying!
The silver blade of the Jecheon sword aims at the neck. It was fired as it was without the slightest change or illusion, as if it contained a quick sword rather than a fantasy sword.
‘I made a mistake… Ah!’
Rimmer’s eyes widened. The real blade aimed at the heart was hidden in the shadow of the Jecheon sword aimed at the neck.
Chiyiying!
Creepy goosebumps rose between his spine at the sharp sword strike that seemed to pierce his heart.
“Big!”
The aura that Rimer was using exploded at once and threw away the sword.
Whoa!
A powerful shockwave exploded and Raon flew like a piece of paper and rolled across the floor.
“Umm…”
Raon frowned as he slammed his sword into the ground.
“You’re a bit overdone.”
“I was so surprised.”
Rimer’s languid expression was filled with clear astonishment.
“You weren’t hurt though.”
“It is.”
Raon lightly stood up.
“I was fooled too.”
Rimer licked his lips with admiring eyes.
“It wasn’t just hearing that the swordsman killed.”
The sword that Raon raised while pulling out his sword not only killed his hearing, but also subdued his sense of sight, smell, touch, and spirit.
‘That’s why the reaction is so late.’
Raon’s Hwansword was excellent, but it killed all the senses of the moment to make the Hwansword feel real. Even if he was a master, his reaction was bound to be delayed.
“It exceeded my imagination.”
Rimmer grinned and clapped.
“You’ve created a really crazy swordsmanship.”
It was hard to believe that an 18-year-old created such insane swordsmanship. Raon was not just a genius, but a sword monster with the temperament of a great master.
However, Raon’s eyes were calm as he performed such ruthless swordsmanship.
“Sweet Lord.”
He approached Rimer after slicing the Celestial Sword.
“How would you like to finish this sword?”
“Hmm…”
Rimmer swung his sword, organized his thoughts, and nodded.
“First of all, sound.”
“sound?”
“I felt a sense of incongruity from the sound of the beast exploding when you drew your sword. Master Intermediate. No, even if I become a lower class, I will be wary of that sound.”
He deliberately listened to the sound to see Raon’s sword properly, but it was clear that a master would be wary of that foreign sound.
“A true master of swordsmanship draws the sword silently.”
Rimer pulled out his sword in the blink of an eye. Without the slightest echo, the drawn blade stood in front of Raon’s neck.
“If you completely silence the sound like this, the opponent will think it’s really a swordsmanship and focus only on speed.”
“But if you don’t make a sound…”
“Harpies use mana to block people’s movements with ultrasonic waves.”
He continued by making circles with his fingers.
“It would be very difficult to use a sound sword that kills the opponent’s senses while muting the sound, but it will definitely be possible if you borrow the power of mana like a harpy.”
“Sound…”
Raon nodded lowly as if something came to mind.
“The second is the Phantom Sword.”
Rimmer raised his index finger.
“It’s fast enough to be thought of as a quick sword, and it’s good to hide the real blade in the shadow of the Phantom Sword. But…”
He fired a sword strike this time as if to show the test. The blade containing the wind became a beam of light and stretched out.
“We need to increase the speed, and we need to slow down the separation time of the real sword from the fantasy sword.”
“You mean to increase the time for the real sword to be separated from the Hwangeom.”
“okay. If you delay the separation of the Phantom Sword a little longer, it will become a swordsmanship that is difficult to avoid even if you know it.”
“All right.”
As if trying to remember those words, Raon nodded while looking at the jecheon sword.
“It’s true that your swordsmanship is innovative, but it doesn’t work unconditionally. It won’t be difficult to kill sewage, but even if you’re of the same class, you’ll be able to avoid it.”
“I guess so.”
“If only the speed of the sound and the delay of the Phantom Sword were all perfect…”
Rimer smiled brightly with serious eyes.
“Not only your classmates, but even master intermediates will be able to cut it with one sword.”
* * *
“Who didn’t understand?”
After giving advice, Rimer looked back at the members of the Gwangpungdan. Burren and Marta Runan all raised their hands as if they hadn’t noticed.
“Then, let’s go back to our main job after a long time and let Mr. Lee Rimmer explain.”
He giggled and approached the members of the Gwangpungdan and began to explain how Raon used the sword.
Raon turned his head while watching Rimer explain the tricks of the sword to the swordsmen.
‘Sound, speed and delay…’
Well done.
Rimer took a look and picked up on the flaws as if he knew everything from before. After all, he wasn’t a normal person.
‘I think I can solve everything.’
The hardest part of his advice is the sound, but there are ways to fix it.
‘Memories of the previous life.’
Having lived his entire life as an assassin, he was more confident than anyone else in killing the sound. It would take a lot of research and practice, but it seemed like it could be solved by mixing the shadow martial art.
“It will be fun.”
Now that the floor has been laid and the foundation has been laid, all you have to do is build it up. Looking forward to the development of the two swordsmanship, laughter came out naturally.
– Hmm.
Lars licked his lips and climbed onto the bracelet.
– It’s amazing that there are times when the ears are working.
The guy looked at Rimmer’s back and frowned.
‘I know.’
Raon smiled lightly. Rimer is usually a ragtag, but I couldn’t hate him because he showed such a serious side from time to time.
“Raon!”
When I was about to practice my balgeom, Rimer approached me. As if the explanation was over, the prosecutors were discussing in groups of threes and threes.
“There was one thing I didn’t tell you.”
“Which one?”
I listened in anticipation of what kind of advice this time, but the words that came out of his mouth were beyond my imagination.
“tuition.”
“yes?”
“If you listened to this great advice, you should have a reasonable tuition fee.”
“You didn’t say there was a tuition fee.”
“You didn’t say no.”
He held out his hand and grinned.
“You have to take it off like this. Please pay for the tuition.”
“Haa…”
Raon pursed his lips and let out a sigh.
‘As expected, this beggar elf…’
* * *
After a short class, Limer led the Gwangpungdan.
Originally, it was his job, but I only felt grateful because he was so idle. This seemed like a bad learning effect.
Anyway, thanks to Rimer’s work, I bought time to practice swordsmanship.
When moving, he studied how to reduce or increase the sound of the swordsmanship from the back, drew his own sword during breaks and trained his quicksword, and stayed vigil at night to devise a way to spread the sword more perfectly in his imagination.
All day. No, as if this journey itself was part of swordsmanship training, he steadily practiced the Yin Sword and the Hwangeom Quicksword, and eventually arrived at his destination near the Gazelle River.
“huh?”
“Is this the Gazelle River?”
“Is it a little different from what I heard?”
“I heard that it’s clear enough to drink…”
The members of the Gwangpungdan tilted their heads at the deep blue-green river water.
“Um…”
Raon narrowed his eyes as he looked at the dim Gazelle River.
‘The color has changed.’
When I stopped by this place before, the river was clear enough that I could see the fish below, but now it was so dark that I couldn’t even see in front of my nose.
“Looks like there’s a problem with the river, not just the Qingru people.”
Rimer frowned and grabbed the reins.
“Let’s move quickly. Because the village ahead is Doran.”
It was when I arrived at a place where I could see the entrance to Doran Village following him.
“hurry!”
“Move quickly!”
“Are there enough weapons?”
“I have to drive it out first, so listen to anything!”
People rushed out from inside the village. He ran toward the river with a weapon in his hand, such as a spear or harpoon.
“Scheduled change.”
Rimer turned around. Seriousness was reflected in the light windy eyes.
“I am after them.”
“yes!”
Since the villagers were not unmanned, they were able to catch up quickly.
“Is there a problem?”
Rimer approached the stout middle-aged man who ran the most.
“Who are you?”
The middle-aged man scanned Rimer up and down with wary eyes.
“I am from Sieghart.”
Rimmer removed the robe and revealed the flaming sword pattern on the uniform.
“ah! Sieghart!”
The middle-aged man nodded his head. However, seeing that his expression was not bright, it did not feel unconditionally welcome.
“It is said that the Qingru tribe are attacking the fishing boats from the upper reaches. I was on my way to help somehow.”
“Where is the location?”
“You can go straight in this direction.”
He gestured in the northwest direction.
“Did you hear everything?”
Rimmer looked back.
“Run with all your might!”
“yes!”
As the Gwangpungdan members nodded and ran in the direction the old man had pointed out, a sound like the surface of the water exploding was heard.
Moving along with the sound, a river twice as wide as the one we saw earlier appeared, with a merchant ship floating in the middle.
“Aaaagh!”
“Why are you doing this!”
“Back off!”
The sailors on the merchant ships were frightened and stabbed their long spears into the river and fired arrows.
“This…”
Raon saw the river, not the ship and crew. Something was wriggling in the thicker river.
Whoops!
There was a huge explosion as if magic had exploded in the river. The merchant ship rocked as if it were about to sink.
Koo Goo Goo!
Then, a blue waterspout soared, revealing the being beneath the river.
It is similar to human appearance, but there is a big difference. It had pale blue skin, ears as large as palms, wave-like fins on its forearms and back, and webbed fingers.
“The Blue House.”
They looked the same as the ones I saw before, but there was one difference. a look. The pure eyes that were frightened when he saw himself in his previous life did not exist.
The only thing that shines now is the red eyes that contain murderous intent and anger.
“Kiyi!”
“Kyaaaaa!”
As if trying to drown the sailors, the Qingrujok caused a flood and struck the keel, the center of the ship.
Damn it!
There was a roar that sounded like a tree being split in half, and the ship began to sink little by little.
“Runan!”
Raon ran to the river and called Runan. If you freeze the water with Runan, you will be able to reach the place where the boat is.
“huh!”
Runan understood the meaning at once and joined to the side.
Whoa!
When I immersed my hands in water and made eye contact with Runan to use the cold air, I heard a magnificent boat horn.
When I raised my head, a huge wire was coming in from the back of the merchant ship.
The word “Maeng” in blue letters fluttered on the flag of the front line that was breaking through the current with mighty air waves.
Raon frowned and clenched his fists.
“North and South Alliance…”
