Chapter 305
Raon stood in front of Glenn’s door and narrowed his eyes.
‘Are you talking about secrets?’
A little while ago, the noise inside disappeared. It seems that someone installed a gimag to erase the sound.
‘Is it because of that person from before?’
As I came up here, I met an old woman who seemed to be a black market executive.
Took.
Just as I remembered the old woman’s face, the door opened and Loen came out. He was smiling as usual.
‘It’s a world apart from then.’
The cold assassin who drove the 10 apostles with a sword disappeared, leaving only the old man wandering around the village.
“Are you feeling better?”
“Thanks.”
Raon clenched and opened his fist and nodded.
“I’m glad. Please come in.”
Rowen came out to the side and got out of the way.
“thank you.”
Raon nodded and went inside.
Rimmer was frowning with his back against the wall, and Cheryl was smiling softly.
“I see the head of the household.”
I walked to the middle and stood in front of Glenn. He had a blunt face like when he was in the throne room of Gajujeon.
No, perhaps the conversation with the old woman was wrong, but his expression was stiffer than usual.
“What’s going on?”
Seeing that her voice had cracked a little, it seemed that her inner wounds hadn’t fully recovered.
“I have come to say thanks.”
“Thank you?”
“yes. Thank you for saving my life.”
Raon knelt down and bowed his head. I didn’t expect you to come, so the gratitude was much greater. When I saw Glenn, I remembered the time when I faced death, and my heart still trembled.
“It wasn’t for you.”
Glenn’s eyes fell coldly, as if they contained winter.
“I just made the worms pay for ignoring Sieghart.”
“Billion…”
I don’t know why, but as soon as Glenn finished speaking, Rimmer suddenly slapped his forehead.
“Even so, it does not change that I am able to live thanks to the head of the household. Thank you for saving me and my comrades.”
It was a somewhat expected answer, so Raon smiled lightly and lowered his head again.
“Raon Sieghart. You are conceited.”
Glenn’s eyes narrowed. A sharp wave like a sword pierced his chest.
“That powerlessness at that age. Definitely not a bad achievement. However, there are countless strong people above you. They don’t look down on you for being young and full of talent.”
That’s right. He was overconfident in his own growth and moved without thinking back.
‘I ran too simply.’
He thought he could win against most apostles, and he actually cut down the 7 apostles, but the appearance of the 10 apostles and Merlin, who jumped out after that, was far beyond his expectations.
Because such monsters destroy the plan itself, they had to make a hole to escape from the beginning and move.
“sorry.”
Raon accepted Glenn’s scolding and lowered his head.
“Haa…”
Sheryl sighed unusually and turned her back to look out the window.
“There will never be a miracle like this again.”
Glenn rested his chin and frowned. His eyes took on a colder light.
“Do not act beyond your subject. Interference without force is just a meaningless sacrifice.”
“Huh.”
Ron closed his eyes and closed his mouth. It was the first time seeing Glenn as the sky.
‘This is also true.’
I don’t know why the three of them suddenly did that, but Glenn was right. Jumping in to save others while lacking in force means only committing suicide together. Because there is nothing that can be achieved only with the mind.
“I will engrave the Lord’s words into my bones.”
Raon sincerely accepted Glenn’s advice and closed his eyes.
‘Come to think of it, is the head of the household okay?’
I was a little worried because I saw him bleeding and he didn’t look good right now.
“Is the head of the house okay?”
“Nothing to worry about.”
Glenn’s face hardened like a dry leaf. It seemed that my wounds hadn’t healed yet.
“…Are you all right?”
“Not bad. You should be able to return in a week or so.”
“Did you forget what I said earlier?”
There was a heavy dignity in his voice. My shoulders trembled from the strong pressure.
“I told you not to be conceited and not to go off topic. you died and came back to life Make sure to rest until your body fully recovers!”
“I see.”
“But…”
Glenn’s hushed voice sounded slightly quivering.
“I’m glad you’re safe.”
“Ah…”
He shook his head. I never thought that words like that would come out of Glenn’s mouth, so my jaw dropped.
However, Glenn’s expression was as cold as before. It must have been like a greeting from a passerby, but the tip of my nose was sore from the worry I heard from him for the first time.
“thank you.”
Raon bowed his head.
“Kuhm.”
Glenn cleared his throat and buried his back in the chair.
“oh.”
“hmm!”
“Big.”
Rimmer and Cheryl Loen, who were looking elsewhere, turned their heads at the same time and let out a low exclamation.
“If you don’t have anything more to say…”
“There is. It may be an illusion, but it seems that the White Blood cult leader and Tacheon escaped alive.”
It’s true that they’re alive, because Lars can’t lie about it. I had to inform Glenn as soon as possible.
“Know.”
Glenn nodded, unfazed in the slightest.
“It was my mistake to try to eliminate them both at once. I should have aimed only at Taman, but I was greedy and a gap opened up.”
Contrary to expectations, he admitted his mistake and frowned. It was an annoyance that he inflicted on himself, not on others.
‘I really don’t know.’
Originally, the higher you are in the higher position, the more you don’t admit your mistakes and gloss over them.
Derus Robert was also a bandaeng who somehow passed on his mistakes to his subordinates, but Glen naturally admitted his mistakes even though he was in a higher position than anyone else.
It was as amazing as his powerlessness.
“Is that what you meant to talk about?”
“no. There is one more. To Martha…”
Raon told Martha the story about the White Blood Religion and everything he thought of himself.
“crazy!”
“Damn it…”
“Whoa…”
Perhaps it was a shock to everyone, Rimmer gritted his teeth, Cheryl shook her chin, and Loen tightly closed her eyes.
“Mmm.”
Glenn also let out a low moan, breaking his cold complexion.
“How is Martha?”
“I ate and fell asleep.”
Martha believed that there was hope and went to sleep after eating.
“ha.”
He sighed slowly and looked out the window at the sun streaming in.
“The first time I met the white-blooded religious leader was a red-haired, blue-eyed young girl, and the second was a blonde woman in her twenties with purple eyes. As you think, the white blood priest can use the divorce technique to change the body of another person.
“As expected…”
“But it’s a little different from the usual divorce technique.”
“What does that mean?”
“Since Divorce is a method of entering someone else’s body, you lose most of your strength and cannot use all of your physical abilities. But the monster’s divorce technique has no such drawbacks.”
Glenn’s eyes twisted. It seemed that his anger toward the white blooded priest was rising.
“As soon as the White Blood Religion Master settles into a new body using Divorce, he can use his original powers and magic. I am not subject to any restrictions.”
“Ha…”
“But thanks to you, I feel like the secret has been solved a little.”
“yes?”
“There can be no effect without a cause. The fact that she is wearing the same necklace as Martha must mean that there is a secret hidden there.”
Like Lars, he said the law of cause and effect and narrowed his eyes. Apparently, the strong seemed to know all the rules.
“Then is there any way to save Martha’s mother?”
“It is essentially impossible. It’s just…”
Glenn calmly lowered his eyes.
“If not only brute strength but also mental strength are enough to overwhelm the white-blooded cult leader, it doesn’t seem possible.”
“okay.”
Raon clenched his fists tightly. For Glenn to say something like that, I mean it’s not impossible at all. Of course, since we have to subdue the white-blooded cult leader, the chances are very slim.
“Raon Sieghart.”
“yes.”
“excellent.”
Glenn suddenly nodded in praise.
“If the secret of the white blood cult is solved, more than half of it will be your credit. Good work.”
“Oh no. I just wanted to see if there was a way to help…”
I just rolled my head to comfort Martha and figure out the situation. It was too much to receive such praise.
“It is always the right thing to think of your colleagues. Don’t forget that heart.”
“I will keep that in mind.”
“When Martha wakes up, you guys take good care of her. When I return to the family, I will call the child.”
“yes.”
Raon nodded.
‘thank god.’
He was worried that Marta would think badly of her because she was the daughter of a white-blooded religious leader, but Glenn was just worried about her. He was a cold-blooded yet humane man.
“Let’s just get out.”
Glenn waved his hand like he usually did to ward off flies.
“yes.”
Raon nodded and stood up.
“thanked. And…”
I wanted to say something to Glenn, who gave me sharp but human advice, but I couldn’t think of anything. The only thing that comes to mind is the blood dripping from his mouth not long ago.
“Oh, you must live long.”
Raon spat out those words and left the room as if he were running away.
“oh my! Living a long time is that what you mean here! To me, that guy is a problem too!”
Rimer sighed as he looked at the door Raon had left.
“I feel bad, but I communicate with you a little today. Oh, it’s frustrating.”
Cheryl sighed and sighed.
“Wouldn’t it get better little by little?”
Loen patted Rimmer and Cheryl on the shoulder to help us understand.
“Kuuuu…”
The three of them raised their heads at the sound of moaning in front of them.
Glenn clutched his left breast and bit his lip.
“Huh!”
“Go, Lord?”
“In case of internal injury!”
As Rimmer and Cheryl Loen approached Glenn in surprise, he looked up. Lips were quivering.
“Long live…”
Glenn looked at the door with thrilled eyes.
“Isn’t the heart that thinks of Martha too pure and kind?”
“…”
The gaze of the three people hardened once again.
* * *
Raon returned to his quarters, settled down, and operated the ring of fire. As the ring resonated, the excruciating pain that had been occurring throughout the body subsided and the recovery of the body accelerated.
‘Definitely different.’
Both Cartoonist and Glacia are excellent techniques, but Ring of Fire is especially special. I could feel the ruptured blood vessels and torn skin slowly regenerating.
oh oh oh!
As I forgot about time and concentrated on the exercises to restore the four mana circuits, I heard the sound of people approaching the door.
smart.
Knock and Dorian’s voice followed behind the footsteps.
“Dude lord. A guest has arrived!”
I woke up to the sound of a guest. He felt two people standing behind Dorian.
‘Are there any guests to come?’
Raon stood up and opened the door.
“Your complexion has improved a bit.”
Two women approached from behind the grinning Dorian. The person in front was the old woman who had come out of Glenn’s room, and the person standing next to him was Denning Rose, the head of the Gran Seville branch of the black market.
“Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa”
Denning Rose gasped, losing his balance and banging his shoulder against the wall.
“What a relief. Really…”
She bit her lip, clutching her chest.
“The branch manager?”
“Do not worry. Seeing Lord Budan alive, I lost my strength.”
The old woman patted Denning Rose on the back and smiled softly.
“Um…”
Raon nodded slightly as he looked at Denning Rose, who was breathing lightly with her eyes closed.
‘I said it was hard work.’
The story of Denning Rose came out when I heard the story of Gwangpungdan. It is said that they operated black market agents all night to find Eden’s branch, but now it seems that the tension has been resolved.
“thank you. Thanks to you, I was able to live.”
Raon bowed his head as if to bow to Denning Rose.
“no.”
Denning Rose shook his head. Seeing that he regains his composure in an instant and becomes calm in his eyes, it was certainly not an ordinary intelligence award.
“If it wasn’t for Vice Lord, I would have died being played by the 7 apostles, starting with me.”
She smiled lightly, saying she had only reciprocated.
“But this person…”
Raon looked at the old woman holding Denning Rose by the shoulder. Seeing that the branch manager was treated like that, it was clear that he was a black market executive, as expected.
“nice to see you. My name is Rosaline, who runs the black market.”
The old woman greeted with an elegant attitude like a nobleman.
“A black market owner?”
They said they were running a black market, not a black market branch. In other words, this old woman was the master of the black market spread across the continent.
“yes. Undeservedly, I am in charge of the black market.”
She laughed like it was nothing.
“Ah, it’s late to say hello. My name is Raon Sieghart, Lord of Storms.”
Raon bowed his head to Roselyn.
‘It’s too much… There’s no way that’s the case.’
The one who made the black market the size it is now is the current black market owner and Rosaline in front of her. It was just a word of humility to her who had all the power of the black market in her hands.
“Please come in at once.”
I couldn’t stand them in front of the door, so I called them inside and sat them down at the table.
“Dorian. I’m sorry, but I’ll bring you some tea…”
“Yup.”
Dorian didn’t go out after answering.
“Ah, here you are.”
He pulled out three teacups and a kettle from his stomach pocket. When red tea leaves were put into the kettle, the kettle suddenly boiled and emitted steam.
Chii profit!
A heavy yet clean scent of tea flowed from the kettle, warming the room.
‘anyway.’
Raon laughed. These are mysterious pockets and tools. Admiration came out after a long time.
“It’s Benjar Green Tea. Dry it well and it will smell good.”
Dorian grinned as if he were a butler and poured tea into the three teacups.
“This person isn’t from an ordinary family either.”
Roselyn smiled softly at Dorian’s stomach pouch. She took a sip of her tea and put down a neck armor from her bosom.
“This…”
“It’s Woobo’s hundred medicines.”
“Woobo’s white medicine? Why is this…”
“This is a gift to the Lord Budan.”
Raon’s mouth fell open. Ubo is a craftsman in the manufacture of elixirs, called yakseon. The baekyak he manufactures is said to bring back the dead, but I did not expect to give such a valuable item as a gift.
“Why do I do this…”
“We were also responsible for the kidnapping of Lord Budan. Rather than helping, I only received help in reverse, so it would be appropriate to show this level of sincerity.”
She held out the gauntlet containing the white medicine.
‘Um…’
Raon looked at Rosaline, not Baekyak. calm eyes. It was clear eyes without any selfishness, but I couldn’t believe it as it was.
I slightly turned my eyes to see Denning Rose. She looked at the white medicine as if it were natural and did not react.
‘They’re reacting a little differently.’
If Rosaline passed Woobo’s white medicine after seeing Gary Glenn, not herself, then Denning Rose was really worried and gave her the medicine.
However, it seemed that both of them thought that this much should be given.
“thank you.”
After Raon lowered his head, he grabbed the armor and brought it forward. I felt a light but heavy warmth.
“Of course it should be.”
Roselyn shook her hand lightly and took a sip of her tea.
“The tea tastes good.”
“thank you!”
Dorian grinned as he held the kettle.
– Do you mean delicious? Try it too!
Lars, unable to grasp the mood, interrupted and pointed to the teacup.
‘It’s not right with you.’
-That’s for the main king to decide!
‘Whoa…’
He sighed and took a sip of the tea.
– Tsk! That’s dumb.
Lars clicked his tongue and went into the ice flower bracelet. This isn’t about raising a child, it’s ridiculous.
“Then let’s move on.”
Rosalind put down the teacup and smiled.
“If it’s next…”
“You didn’t tell this child the reward for completing the mission. No, there was no chance for that. He said he would do anything, so you have to keep that promise.”
“Ah…”
I said that, and I thought about actually asking. But I couldn’t get the words out of my mouth.
“it’s okay.”
Raon shook his head slowly.
“I heard that the entire black market went to great lengths to rescue me. I helped and received help, so more than that is too much.”
Really. Excessive greed can become poison. Everyone survived, so now there was nothing more to ask for.
‘If you accept that, then you have no conscience.’
If it ended with dealing with the 7 apostles in Gran Seville, he would have received the promised pay and information, but the situation was twisted and he received help from the black market. I don’t know if it was the original reward. It wasn’t the right thing to ask for more.
“This child is the head of the black market and one of my heirs.”
Roselyn stroked Denning Rose’s hair.
“Even if we are not a fundamental group like Sieghart, we cannot go against what the successor said.”
She looked straight at Raon and smiled lightly.
“Tell me what you want.”
