Episode 264
“Umm…”
After Raon rubbed his eyes, he looked at Robbie again. It is as it is. Ansia Yonan. The heir of the Yonan family, who is said to be a genius in producing artifacts, bowed his head in a maid’s suit.
“You’re back!”
The sight of Encia smiling brightly and lowering her head made her dry saliva go down.
“Why is Ansia-sama here? no, that outfit. Uh…”
Raon’s voice trembled. To be honest, I was more embarrassed than when I met my father Roman.
‘Why is this person here?’
It looks like that too!
A month earlier than the original scheduled date. I don’t even know why she’s in the annex wearing a maid’s outfit.
“Wow…”
Ensia took a step forward with her hands clasped together. Her blue eyes began to blur.
“You look good when you come back. I’m really glad I saw it for the first time. Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa”
She didn’t answer the question, but only yelled out, dyeing her cheeks red.
– He’s the only one who can embarrass you.
Lars giggled, saying it was fun.
– I want to shout out to the king too. well done!
‘Noisy.’
Raon pushed Lars away and looked at Ensia again.
“That… Ensia-sama?”
“Raon is beautiful even without natural light. Your eyes shine like blood rubies.”
The strange taste of not listening to the other side and only looking at the face was the same.
“Since I saw Raon-nim’s handsome face, I don’t need side dishes for dinner tonight.”
The bullshit was still going on, but seeing the light slowly return to Encia’s eyes, it seemed that the words would make sense now.
“How did Ansia-nim get here? The date you said you would come is still far away, right?”
“I came because I wanted to see Raon-nim.”
Encia smiled as if asking why she was asking something obvious.
“That’s right. Then the training artifacts I asked for…”
“All completed.”
“Does the Gwangpungdan have anything to use?”
Raon opened his mouth wide. Each of the artifacts requested from her were handmade and fit for Gwangpungdan. I couldn’t believe that I had completed all of them.
“Because I use the inspiration I saw from Raon’s face. Work efficiency has increased four times. My hands move endlessly.”
What the hell did you see on my face…
I couldn’t understand what I saw on my face that made my work efficiency 4 times faster. I knew that craftsmen were unusual, but Ensia was unique among them.
“It was the first time I had such an experience. Also, being handsome is the best. iced coffee!”
Her eyes widened again, so she spoke quickly.
“Then why are you in the annex? Guest quarters are elsewhere.”
“I wanted to meet and see how beautiful the mother who sent Raon into the world is. I grabbed the guide’s ankle and asked. I’m really glad you came. Because Sylvia-nim was as beautiful as Raon-nim. Toddlers are cute too. This is a volcano of inspiration.”
Hearing Sylvia’s praise made me feel good, but there was something I had to ask.
“Lastly, why did you wear a maid’s uniform…”
“I said I wanted to stay here rather than a guest accommodation. Sylvia-nim readily agreed, but you can’t just eat. I have to work.”
Ensia put her hand on her waist and smiled.
“Ha…”
Raon’s mouth opened wide.
‘What kind of action…’
One of the heirs of the Yonan family came directly to the annex and volunteered to work as a handmaid. It was something I couldn’t believe no matter where I was in the world.
“Ugh…”
“Huh? Mr. Raon!”
As I was shaking my head, a toddler walked out of the hallway on the right with cooking utensils.
“no! Dear Sir Raon!”
Yua slightly bit her tongue and spat out the native language of Ensia.
“uh…?”
“Is this right? Ansia sister?”
“okay. That’s it! Baby!”
Ensia stroked Yua’s head and smiled.
“Raon?”
“young master!”
Sylvia and Helen hurriedly ran down from upstairs as if they had heard the infant’s voice.
“It’s not like that. Mr. Sylvia. Helen.”
“Oh yes! Did you come to the good job?”
“You’re welcome, young boy!”
Sylvia and Helen smiled at Raon.
“oh? Good boy!”
“Because it will take a while until dinner. Wash first and come out. Dear Sir Laon.”
The ladies-in-waiting who were doing other things also greeted her and shouted that she was respectable.
“This is…”
“As I’ve said before, Raon-nim’s face is a gift from God! I taught everyone how to express themselves.”
Fortunately or unfortunately, Ensia seemed friendly with Sylvia and the ladies-in-waiting. It was Dorian’s level of affinity.
-Puhahaha!
As if Lars couldn’t stand it, he grabbed his stomach and rolled over.
-That woman with a hand is your nemesis!
“Whoa…..”
Raon closed her eyes tightly as she looked at Ensia, who smiled widely, and the ladies-in-waiting who said they were respectable.
‘I’m tired.’
The house is suddenly tired.
* * *
Burren licked his lips as he looked around the gymnasium for the first time in a while.
‘It’s a bit awkward.’
In the past, it was a place where I came every day to train, but it was the first time I heard it since I belonged to the Gwangpungdan, so I felt strange.
‘Have I changed?’
The wall with the scars on it and the tree that used to block the sun were still there, but I felt like I was the only one out of it, so my appetite was bitter.
“It’s been a while since you’ve come here, so your feelings are new, right?”
Gelmere, the second older brother and the leader of the Jeolmadan, approached with a smile.
“huh. I didn’t know you’d come back like this.”
It reminded me of my childhood when the only goal was to become a prosecutor in the heavy military war and gain the approval of my father. Recalling the memories of my childhood from the perspective of the Gwangpungdan after being kicked out of the heavy martial arts, I felt a little stuffy.
“Are you sorry?”
Gelmere stepped aside and asked.
“Sorry. As you know, my dream was to be acknowledged by my father and follow in his footsteps.”
He smiled bitterly as he touched the sword mark on the gymnasium wall that Burren had carved himself.
‘It was the first time I received a compliment.’
I remembered how my father stroked my hair, saying that swordsmanship was sharp. It was the first compliment I received from my father and the only stroke.
“It’s fine now, though.”
Burren laughed lightly as he removed his hand from the sword scar.
“Are you okay?”
“okay. Because I have a place that needs me.”
Gwangpungdan. With those guys who have spent more time together than brothers, even the regret of not being able to stay here disappears. It was no longer Jungmujeon, but Gwangpungdan’s dorm really felt like my own home.
“I’m glad you found your place.”
Gelmere patted Burren on the shoulder and smiled softly.
“thank you.”
“By the way, Burren. What would you do if you could come back here?”
“uh?”
Burren opened his eyes and looked back at Gelmere.
“What the heck…”
“What would you do if you could return to Heavy Radio and have the authority to join any organization you want?”
Gelmere’s eyes were sunken. There was not the slightest prank or joke.
“What do you want to say?”
“I can put you on heavy radio if you do just two things. Then it won’t be too difficult for you to be accepted by your father the way you want.”
At those words, Burren’s throat vibrated greatly.
“You seem to have no idea.”
“Um…”
Burren bit his lip. Her dream and goal is still to receive her father’s approval.
Even if he went to Gwangpungdan, that goal did not change.
“It’s not too difficult to ask.”
“What is your request?”
Even if it’s not now, I might come back later, so I nodded, thinking it wouldn’t be as bad as listening.
“Raon Sieghart’s weakness.”
“brother?”
“It’s nothing to know since we’ve been together since we were trainees. What is his weakness?”
Gelmere was calm even as he told him to tell Raon’s weakness, who became his cousin. It was confident enough to be thought of as asking for a taste in order to give a gift.
“Strange?”
Gelmere laughed.
“Burren. Lyon is the horse. It’s a monster that grows at a speed that will go down in the continent’s history. Are you going to leave it as it is?”
His pupils bulged out in a diamond shape like a snake’s pupil.
“If you don’t hold it firmly now, you will have to live with only his back for the rest of your life. Instead of your name, only the name Raon Sieghart will be embedded anywhere. Do you want to live like that?”
“That’s…”
Burren bit his lip.
‘I know.’
You know better than anyone.
His pride is hurt, but now the difference in power with Raon has widened so much that he couldn’t even say that he was catching up like before.
“You just have to quietly tell him his weakness and bring him to the place he says. I’ll take care of it very quietly. do not worry.”
Gelmere muttered that no one would know and gave a cool smile.
“You need some time to think, right? They said they were training in two days, so until tomorrow evening…”
“No.”
Burren gritted his teeth as he looked at Gelmere.
“I will not.”
He firmly refused and shook his head.
‘I can’t.’
Knowing his weakness and leaving Morgo, Raon is a benefactor who broke his filthy way of thinking and even saved his real life. No matter how much I wanted to achieve my goals and dreams, I couldn’t commit such a thing.
“That guy has no weaknesses! Even if you do, don’t talk!”
Burren frowned and turned his head.
“I got some help from my brother, so I’ll keep my mouth shut about this, but it’s better not to lie in vain. You’ll have to get over me before you touch him.”
Grinding my teeth, I headed for the exit.
“I am disappointed in you. Contact me in the future… Oh.”
I turned around to give a last warning, but Gelmere had disappeared on the spot.
“You’re bothering me.”
“Ah…”
With Gelmere’s low voice, Burren’s vision turned dark.
* * *
Raon begged everyone in the lobby not to use the word “honorable” and then followed Sylvia to her room.
“Come on.”
Sylvia, who was sitting on the sofa, hit the table in the middle as if telling her to sit across from her.
“huh.”
Raon nodded and sat down opposite Sylvia.
‘It must be the beginning.’
Anticipating why she called, my body shrank.
“A life-and-death situation with my father, Roman, three years later.”
The words she had thought of came out of Sylvia’s mouth. His tone was soft yet sad, and his mouth seemed to dry up.
“Did you make such a reckless bet to save others?”
As I pondered over how to relieve my worries, she smiled lightly.
“mom?”
“There are things you have accomplished and shown, how could I not know about them?”
Sylvia held her hand with a softer smile.
“I still don’t forget what you said when you first grabbed the sword.”
“Um…”
It’s just as she said. When he first grabbed the sword, the words of asking him to show his former state of swordsman Sieghart, helping the weak and not backing down in front of the strong still lingered in his heart.
“To be honest, I just wanted to say that. It feels like my heart sinks every time you go out on a mission and things happen.”
Sylvia’s eyes drooped.
“My mom knows how great you are because she lived as an unmanned person.”
As her warmth passed through her clasped hands, it seemed that the various worries that had clung to her like a spider’s web melted away.
“I thought I had gotten used to it to some extent, but this time I feel a little stuffy inside. Father Roman…”
Sylvia let out a deep sigh. The sound of her breathing seemed to reflect all her heavy worries.
‘I guess so…’
Her son, who had just become a master, said that he would fight a monster that had just become a grand master in three years, so it was only natural for her to be worried as a mother.
“don’t worry. I will never die.”
Raon smiled and tightened his grip.
“I’ll come back alive, even if I grab your father’s leg in three years.”
“What is it! You have to become stronger and say you will win!”
Sylvia smiled. What she wanted was safety, not victory, so she said that she would not die rather than victory, but it seemed to work.
“okay. you have to believe Once you’ve decided to believe it, you have to wait and see.”
She nodded with a slightly brightened face.
“It’s fine if you’re okay. come and wash Dinner will be ready soon.”
“wait for a sec.”
Raon grabbed Sylvia’s wrist as she tried to stand up.
“Mom, don’t you want to stand up again?”
“huh?”
“Do you have any thoughts on fixing the mana circuit and the short circuit?”
Raon bit his trembling lips.
‘I wonder what it will be like…’
I had a lot of thoughts until I brought this up.
‘Because it’s precious to me too.’
Since Sylvia is precious, I thought it would be nice to withdraw from the battle as it is without recovering the mana circuit and short circuit.
‘But that’s…’
just like my mother tried to stop me.
It was the same mistake as when Sylvia tried to stop her from becoming a trainee. You have to make the choice yourself, even if you want to help and provide countermeasures.
“Um…”
Maybe it was because it was a sudden question. Sylvia couldn’t open her mouth easily.
“This is an artificial danjeon that can replace the danjeon, and the side is an elixir called Youngryuwan that can heal damage to the mana circuit.”
Raon placed an artificial short circuit and Youngryu ring on the table.
“It doesn’t work for a mother whose mana circuit is completely cut off, but if it’s a saint, it might increase the effect to the level of connecting the mana circuit.”
“Um…”
“If Mom wants it, I’ll try to find a way to restore the artificial power cut and circuit somehow.”
After that, I closed my mouth and waited for Sylvia’s answer.
“Ugh. Hmm! Mmmmm!”
Sylvia thought about it for a long time, clutching her hair, then banged her head on the table.
“What mom?”
“Do you remember what I said before?”
“What did you say before?”
“I said I never regretted giving birth to you.”
“Ah…”
Raon nodded slightly.
‘I have no choice but to remember.’
She said she never regretted meeting her father and giving birth to her. He said that he is still very happy.
“That thought has not changed. It’s okay as it is.”
Sylvia slowly raised her head. He rubbed his slightly reddened forehead and smiled.
“but.”
she raised a finger.
“If there is a chance, I want to grab it. Rather than wanting to be strong Because I want to protect you and the people of this annex.”
“Yeah…”
Raon smiled lightly.
‘It’s the same.’
Sylvia was thinking exactly the same as herself. It was a simple yet consistent desire to protect this place.
“Wait for me.”
Raon clenched his fists and stood up.
‘Cause I’ll make you stand up
* * *
After leaving Sylvia’s room, Raon took Ensia to the garden.
“It’s a pity.”
Ansia licked her lips.
“I told you the hard way.”
“Ensia-sama is enough to use those words.”
“uh? because you say so Are you in a good mood all of a sudden?”
She covered her cheeks and laughed.
“Hmm…”
Raon licked his lips. Really, just talking to this person seemed to get twisted.
“Why did you ask me to see you two? I am welcome anytime.”
“I want you to look at this.”
He took out an artificial short circuit from his bosom and held it out to Encia.
“hmm?”
Encia’s eyes, which had been fixed on Raon’s face, went down for the first time.
“This is…”
“This is the artificial power cut I got when I went to the dungeon.”
“Artificial blackout…”
“Can you replicate this artificial blackout?”
Encia was already engrossed in looking at the artificial short circuit and was closing her ears.
“The patterns in this danjeon. It’s an ancient text. It’s over a thousand years old. And the ratio is the golden ratio. You made it able to withstand any aura or mana. It has a noble appearance and beautiful performance.”
She looked at the artificial power supply for a long time with eyes filled with amazement and admiration.
“The creator of this danjeon must be a genius. It seems difficult for me to follow.”
Ensia looked at Danjeon for a while and sighed. It was a serious expression I hadn’t seen in a long time.
“Then is cloning difficult?”
“yes. Even if I dismantle this, there is no guarantee that I will be able to make the same one. There is a high chance that only the power supply will be broken.”
“Then, the head of the household Yonan…”
“You won’t even be a mother. Originally, artifacts with ancient patterns are damaged inside the moment they are opened.”
“Ah…”
His expression frowned. I heard that objects from previous eras have a copy protection ability, so they will be destroyed the moment they are disassembled.
“But I think we can make something similar…”
“Yes?”
“The form and performance will be different from this one, but I think I can make an artificial blackout itself.”
“Am I really?”
“yes. My brain flashed when I saw Raon’s face and the golden ratio of this artificial short circuit.”
She looked at the artificial short circuit and licked her lips, saying that it would work.
“Of course, it takes a lot of time and requires a lot of materials…”
“That doesn’t matter!”
Raon approached Encia and took her hands.
“Ah…”
Ensia’s face turned red in an instant when she saw Raon’s face up close.
“Go go go go! However much!”
Ensia looked at Raon and her lips trembled.
‘So handsome.’
Her skin was porcelain, her eyes were inlaid with bright jewels, and her nose was lofty like the moon in the sky.
Now, even the word good is not enough. Completely. perfectly handsome It was a face that became more complete as time passed.
My head spun around. I had to say that it might be impossible, but seeing Raon’s face up close, the words just couldn’t come out.
“Please, please!”
At Raon’s clear voice, Encia couldn’t say no and just spat out an answer.
“yes!”
* * *
Next morning.
Raon returned the artificial short circuit he had given to Ansia and headed to the top floor of Gwangpungdan’s dorm.
There was only one room above it, formerly Chief Instructor. It was now used as a lodging for Gwangpungdanju.
Wow!
After checking the signs inside the room, Raon kicked it out. The door was thrown wide open, and a scream like a chicken crowing was heard from the inside.
“Keeeeek!”
The one who came out screaming was Rimmer, who had scattered hair.
“What! Did you break the door?”
“no. I just opened the door.”
Raon pointed to the shaking door.
“What kind of door are you opening so hard! If you open the door twice, the building will fly!”
“That’s what Rimer-nim did every day.”
“Billion…”
Rimmer’s mouth gaped open. He had kicked the gymnasium door countless times, so he had nothing to say.
“Apart from the door, why did you come here at dawn?”
“Now we must begin.”
Raon took out the artificial short circuit and Youngryu ring from his bosom.
“uh? Are you going to do that today?”
“There is no need to wait for the horns to be taken out as well.”
“No! we came back yesterday Still recovering stamina…”
“What kind of stamina was used by a person who only rode a horse all the way.”
“Even riding a horse requires stamina!”
“All right, get ready.”
I shook my hand as I listened to Rimer’s words.
“I can’t! I mean, we decided to have a drinking party to commemorate our return today!”
He shook his head fiercely, saying he had an appointment at the bar.
“You already had a drink. Cancel today.”
Raon frowned at the bottles of alcohol scattered around the room.
“no! Even if it looks like this, I’m sober, so where can I get an order…”
“It’s not anymore.”
Raon shook his head and pointed to the armband on his forearm. The blue wind, a sign of Gwangpungdanism, was engraved on it.
“Starting today, Limer is an ordinary member of the Gwangpung Troupe, and I am Danju’s assistant manager. You heard about it yesterday.”
“100 million!”
Rimer gaped as if he hadn’t imagined bringing it here.
“I also received full authority over Rimer-nim’s training from the family lord. If you run away from here, I will treat you as disobeying orders.”
“You disobey orders…”
Rimmer clenched his teeth.
‘There’s no way this guy is standing…’
Yesterday, it wasn’t for me, but for himself?
now my head is spinning It reminded me that the reason why Raon took over the full authority and training rights of Gwangpungdan in front of Glenn yesterday was for this very reason.
“La Raon? Let’s talk first…”
“Enough. Let’s go to the seniority room.”
Raon gestured without even listening to Rimer.
“Profit! I can’t go! We are going to play today!”
Rimmer jumped out of the window, dressed roughly. But that was a huge mistake.
“Oops! Why are you!”
“Why, why? I came because the monster you raised called me.”
Do-goe, who was waiting in front of the inn, grinned and grabbed Rimer by the neck as he tried to escape.
“Ah…”
Rimer’s eyes trembled.
“Let’s go.”
Raon came out and beckoned.
“Because I have to wake up today.”
“Aaaaaagh!”
I heard Rimer’s screams behind me, but I didn’t pay attention.
-What kind of thug
?
