Chapter 369
Raon laughed at Dorian, whose lips trembled. He looked up, exposing the whites, as if he thought he had made a big mistake.
‘Anyway, it’s unique.’
He only recited the contents of the test that Addis had told him about, but he didn’t expect that he would even tell them to pass it on there.
[I didn’t need to say that.]
[I’m sorry!]
His trembling message came through as he came to come like Dorian.
[Well, I can’t help what I’ve already done.] I have no
choice but to go out confidently.
Raon raised his chin with confidence, even though he was caught giving orders to Dorian.
-Are you a real jerk?
Lars furrowed his eyes as if he had no idea.
-When you were kidnapped, weren’t you mentally manipulated by a madwoman?
‘Anyway, that person knows I’m giving orders.’
From the look in Borgos’ eyes, he seemed to already know who was deciding the deal.
The word convey only changed that doubt into certainty.
“If that’s the case, sit down instead of standing.”
Borgos said the same thing as Lars and pointed to an empty seat.
“Because I’m on the outside this time.”
Raon shook his hand with a smile.
“An outsider? To me, this looks like an outsider.”
Borgos laughed at Dorian.
“Could that be? Dorian is the one who will be the successor of this Sepia Firm.”
-Isn’t that successor in the palm of your hand!
‘I’m only moving because of Dorian.’
-You’re laughing! Throw away the greed that fills your eyes and speak!
Raon rubbed his eyes with his sleeve and blinked.
‘I threw it away.’
-Turn it off! I want to beat you to death!
Lars, filled with rage, clenched his chubby fists.
“Haha, I didn’t know you would sweat so much dealing with a young person.”
Borgos let out a deep sigh.
“Please. Please sit in front.”
“It’s not polite to turn down an adult’s request twice.”
Raon sat down next to Dorian as if he had waited.
“Then I will stand up!”
Dorian waited, stood up, and laughed. Both of them looked calm as if they had found their place.
“As expected, this is correct.”
Borgos let out a weak laugh and nodded.
“Now, let’s try to speak calmly. White Sword Dragon. What you want is not money.”
There was no way that a person on the level of Raon Sieghard could just want money. It was clear he was aiming for something else.
‘Something… ah!’
As I thought of Raon’s movements, I remembered the sword sheaths he showed me by chance.
‘The long sword and Vulcan dagger felt like Kuberrad.’
Then, no way…
Borgos raised his gaze and looked at Raon. The sight of his sunken eyes, like a deep lake, confirmed his prediction.
‘That was it.’
He smiled contentedly and touched the contract.
“…”
Raon looked at Borgos with calm eyes as usual and smacked his lips.
‘It’s not.’
All he thought about was money…
I don’t know what Borgos was thinking, but all he wanted was money.
‘Because Drake is just a side income.’
The purpose of coming to this company was to make Dorian the successor.
Thanks to the test to bring the drake, he even got a drake heart, the material to make Sylvia’s danteon, so it didn’t matter what the corpse was. It was enough to pay for it.
“I knew you would!”
Borgos nodded his head broadly, as if he had accepted the silence as an affirmation.
-What is that dwarf dung sack talking about now?
Lars frowned at Borgos.
‘Well…’
-What the hell do you think of this guy who’s just grown up!
The guy shouted that he was just a guy full of greed for money.
“I guess the reason you kept pulling up the cloak was to show me the two swords. Aren’t the long swords and Vulcan daggers the work of Kuberrad?”
“That’s right.”
I had no intention of showing the sword, but I nodded my head because the Jecheon Sword and the Requiem Sword were the works of Vulcan and Kuberard.
“Can I have a look?”
“yes.”
Raon, wanting to know how far Borgos could go, unleashed the Celestial Sword and the Requiem Sword and pushed them forward.
Srrrrreung!
Borgos drew the soul sword first. His eyes trembled as he saw the red light on the blade.
“The sword. It is also a magic sword that burns the flames of resentment by sacrificing oneself. It must have been unavoidable for Kuberad to make something like this.”
He caressed the blade of the requiem sword with a bitter expression.
“It looks like you’ve used all your skills. I think it will be ranked high in Kuberrad’s work as well.”
Borgos exclaimed, put the requiem sword into the scabbard, and pulled out the celestial sword.
“A neat yet noble finish. It’s just the craftsmanship of the Balkans. This sword grows with its owner. Depending on how you use it, it can be either a divine sword or a demonic sword. And it seems that your path has not yet been decided.”
He put the blade of the Jecheon Sword in his eyes and smiled.
“It was a good sight.”
Borgos smiled and returned the two swords.
“White Sword Dragon. What you want is a weapon that will not be defeated by those two swords.”
He nodded, saying he understood.
“No, I’m…”
“It wasn’t a bad way to stimulate this Borgos by showing you two swords.”
“Uh….”
“This Borgos can’t lose to Vulcan and Kuberrad! Tell me what you want!”
Borgos slammed the table as if to order.
Raon looked at Borgos’s eyes as if they were on fire and let out a fuss.
‘How does this happen?’
I just stayed still, but I was able to get not only money, but also arms from continental artisans. The world seemed to be spinning very strangely.
“Then may I ask for a set of daggers?”
Since this is also an opportunity, I asked for the dagger, which I thought was necessary.
“Are you learning your cancer skills?”
“I know how to do a little bit.”
“Good! Because there is nothing I cannot make!”
“Oh and…”
Raon turned and pointed at Dorian, who was standing there blankly.
“This guy’s sword is broken, so I want to get a new one. Is that possible?”
“Hmm, that’s what my apprentice will do. Even though he looks so weak, he is the next best craftsman in the guild.”
Borgos pointed to his apprentice standing behind him. I didn’t know that the modifier “weak” would be attached to a giant who could crush orcs with his muscles.
“I don’t care!”
Dorian bowed his head in gratitude.
“Then it will be five gold bars, a set of daggers, and a sword.”
Borgos revised the contract and presented it.
“great. And now let go.”
Raon nodded in satisfaction and took Borgos’ hand.
– What is it?
Lars opened his mouth as he saw Borgos and Raon shaking hands.
-Why does everyone become a Hogu on their own when they meet this guy! Why do you keep getting goosebumps!
* * *
After the negotiations, Raon and Borgos left the group.
“I didn’t know you would ask me for that.”
Borgos shook his head as if it were absurd.
“Because it’s best to leave it to the experts.”
Raon lowered his head slightly and smiled.
“You are not wrong. I just didn’t know that the White Sword Dragon could be such a sly person.”
“I don’t even know my personality well.”
It’s not a lie. Because his disposition and personality were slowly changing along with the growth of the sword realm.
When I tried to return to the gymnasium where Drake was, merchants rushed at me from around me.
“Brother Dorian!”
“hello! It is said that it is a Latin person who runs a clothing store, Camerin! I hope to go along well!”
“long time no see! It is called Sizern, who distributes wheat!”
“Dorian! Congratulations on becoming the successor! I trade with Cameloon…”
“Brother!”
“young master. Wait a minute…”
Numerous merchants ran and clung to Dorian. There were also people who pushed gifts in order to look good to him who became the new successor.
“Voice Lord!”
“Take care.”
Dorian was buried by people, but Raon didn’t care and went to Borgos and the gymnasium.
“Are you not helping me?”
“It’s something you’ll have to go through in the future, so you have to get used to it.”
Raon smiled as he opened the gymnasium door.
“I felt it before, but you really are not like a child. Even if you say that force is talent, experience is not something that is just created…”
Borgos narrowed his eyes as he looked this way.
“I’ve had a bit of a rough life.”
Raon shrugged and stood in front of Drake.
“Then please.”
“I am.”
Borgos licked his lips and drew a dagger from his bosom. A faint red light emanated from the dagger that was thin enough to see the other side.
Whoa!
He carefully slit Drake’s neck with the dagger and pulled out a hexagonal object that emitted a brilliant blue light from within.
Raon held the light in his eyes and clenched his fists.
‘Drake Heart.’
It wasn’t as much as a dragon, but it was a natural mana store that could store a large amount of mana.
‘This should be enough.’
Although it has the attribute of cold air, it is also of high purity, so there will be nothing wrong with being a material for Sylvia’s blackout.
“thank you.”
Raon bowed his head to Borgos and received the Drake Heart. I could have taken it out myself, but I didn’t want to hurt even the slightest, so I asked an expert.
“If you are thinking of selling Drake Heart, I will introduce you to a good place. You will be able to get a higher price than the auction.”
Borgos said that he would introduce someone as if he wanted to help.
“it’s okay. I have a place to write this.”
Since this was only for Sylvia, she had no intention of selling it even for a thousand gold. In fact, it didn’t matter how much Drake was sold for as long as he got this.
“is it. I see.”
Borgos smiled and nodded.
“Then can I send the promised items to Sieghart?”
“yes. Please send Sieghart to the Gwangpungdan.”
“Don’t let that happen.”
He laughed and took the cloth from his bosom. As the cloth fell on Drake’s body, the 35m tall body shrank to about 5m.
The craftsmen of the Gray Hammer Guild stood behind Borgos holding the plank on which the Drake was placed.
“I’ll see you later.”
Borgos waved leisurely and left the arena.
– Hogu is gone.
Lars spat, saying that it was a mutual phrase among the hukou.
‘Not to that extent.’
-Why not! You know how to spread money and stuff!
Because it’s never like you
No matter what kind of hukou in the world came, I couldn’t dare to rub against the las generously given.
As he was about to return to the gun corps, hitting Lars on the head, a middle-aged man with his hair neatly arranged approached him.
“Laon.”
“hmm?”
Raon looked at him and opened his mouth. Her appearance changed a lot, but she couldn’t tell because of her turbid aura. The nakhwa that was broken at this gymnasium was also Mark Goetton.
“May I ask when that thought will end?”
think?
When I paused for a moment to think about what Mark Goetton had said, I remembered an earlier conversation I had with him.
‘I asked to accept it.’
He had come with Palen and begged to follow him. At the time, I remembered that he told me to wait because I had more important things to do.
A month has passed since then, but he seems to have been really waiting for an answer.
‘Is it because he’s a knight?’
He was originally a knight of Warner Kingdom. Unlike swordsmen, knights follow their master’s words unconditionally, so it seems that they have fulfilled the order so far.
‘Was it sincere?’
Apparently, he wasn’t lying when he said he wanted to follow him.
‘Are you getting a real master? No, no.’
Even if you are sincere now, it might change soon.
People don’t change easily, so I wanted to check his true patience.
“Mark Goetton.”
“yes.”
“I am still not feeling well.”
“sorry. I’m training, but…”
“Do you see the mountain over there?”
Raon pointed to the sheer stone mountain to the west of Lokhan City.
“Go back and forth over that mountain four times a day without using your aura. It will be of great help in restoring the damaged body. If you can’t…”
“I will!”
Mark Goeten nodded, took off his jacket, and ran straight toward the mountain.
“Voice Lord!”
As I was looking at his back, Dorian came panting.
“It’s really too much for you to throw it away!”
Dorian frowned and raised his head.
“sorry.”
Raon looked at Dorian and smiled softly.
“Do you want to run away from people?”
“yes. I’m not used to it, and I’m a little disappointed that I came here now…”
Dorian let out a short sigh.
“Then there is a good way.”
“How?”
– No!
Lars raised his head.
-If that guy laughs like that, it’s never a good thing!
He warned strongly, but of course Dorian didn’t hear.
“Do you want to?”
“I will!”
Raon smiled and pointed to the stony mountain where Mark Goeton had just run.
“There will be Mark Goetton over there. I rock-climb four times a day, keeping an eye on him.”
Bare-handed rock climbing is a great help in developing not only the fingers and wrists, which are important for using a sword, but also the upper and lower body, and a sense of balance. It was a good training for Dorian, whose body was not yet complete.
“Did you hear me wrong?”
“San ride. Let’s go!”
“I won’t.”
Dorian shook his head.
“Just meeting people here…”
“Come to think of it, you called me a personality traitor, right? Then concentration strengthening training…”
“I’ll be back!”
With his ears covered, he rushed to the stony mountain.
Raon nodded his head in satisfaction, looking at Mark Goetton in front of him and Dorian following behind him.
“It’s a nice sight.”
– Were you a moneylender in your previous life?
* * *
The next day.
Raon headed to Addis Sepia’s office under the guidance of the butler Rigwin. I’d seen him with Dorian a few times, but it was my first time being called alone, so I was a little nervous.
‘Why are you calling me?’
A successor has been decided and the deal is over, but I’m not sure why he’s calling himself.
-The king knows.
Lars raised the corners of his mouth and let out a sneer.
‘What?’
– What is it? At best, you made a cowardly kid your successor, and now you’ve become a coward.
The guy giggled, saying that it was crazy to have the heir of a large trading house serve as a supervisor.
‘Umm…’
I wonder if that’s possible.
Unlike the appearance, Addis cared for Dorian, so it wasn’t impossible at all. In fact, I didn’t know much about the form of other families, so I couldn’t answer.
-You guys should get scolded!
Lars smirked, saying he would enjoy watching.
– At a time like this, it’s perfect to watch while eating raspberry pie.
‘anyway.’
Raon kicked Lars who was teasing him with his tongue out and stood in front of Addis’s office. This time, Rigwin quietly opened the door, as if not entering.
“Please go in.”
I nodded to Rigwin and went into the office. Unlike usual, Addis Sepia was sitting in front of the table in the center, not at the desk.
“Did you call?”
“Thank you for coming. Please have a seat.”
Addis’ voice was harder and colder than usual.
“As you know, I hate gossip. Can I just tell you why?”
His gaze also felt sharper. It occurred to me that what Lars was saying might be true.
“yes.”
Raon took a deep breath and nodded.
-Your voice is pissed off. Get ready to curse now.
Lars danced, waving his fingers, but what he expected did not happen.
“Sepia Co. is to Sieghart. No, I want to invest in Raon Sieghart.”
Addis Sepia looked at Raon with serious eyes.
-to?
Lars looked into Addis’ clear eyes and bit his lip.
– Was he also a Hogu?
The guy struggled in the air, saying that it didn’t make sense.
-They say it’s over the top 5! Why are you trying to act like a hogu on your own!
Is it family history?
