Episode 455
Raon jumped up and went to the window.
“My lord. How is this…”
Glenn didn’t answer. I looked inside for a moment as if I was looking at the room, then I snapped my finger. It seemed to mean follow me.
“All right.”
After Raon lowered his head, he put on the jacket he had taken off and headed for the door.
-for a moment!
Lars floated in front of the door and swung a round fist.
-Didn’t you promise the king! I’m not going to do anything today, I’m going to sleep soon!
The guy frowned and told me to keep my promise.
‘I’m sorry…’
Raon shook his head as he grabbed Lars’ blue hair.
‘If I don’t go now, I might not be able to eat in the future. Do you want to eat only nadin bread for the rest of your life?’
– Nadine bread?
Lars looked out the window and his lips trembled.
-right! that inspiration. You live on Nadine Bread! What are you doing! Follow me right now! If they give you bread, never eat it!
The guy shouted that he shouldn’t look bad and chase after him quickly.
‘okay. okay.’
Raon smiled lightly and quietly left the annex.
Glenn stared at the garden with his hands behind his back, then slowly looked away. His eyes looked a little different from when he was sitting on the throne in the audience room.
“Follow me.”
He left those words and set his feet on the lake behind the annex. I walked along the lake with light steps as if I was heading for Mt. Bukmang.
‘what?’
It’s still. Glen didn’t make the slightest wave, as if he was walking on solid ground, not a lake. It seemed to blend in with nature itself.
“Um…”
Raon stepped into the lake. I was more confident than anyone else when walking on water, but it was impossible to float without any waves like Glenn.
‘How did you do it?’
Glenn is not someone who just moves without intention. This also seemed like teaching, so I thought of his movements.
‘Is it a flow….’
Glenn’s toes formed a flow like a stopped lake. It seemed that he had harmonized his energy with the flow of this small lake.
‘Come to think of it…’
Both Glenn and Lektar said that the world has its own flow.
The wind has the texture of the wind, and the water has the texture of the water, so he advised me to understand the flow well.
Now Glenn seems to be demonstrating how to harness the flow.
‘You’re really kind.’
As Yua said, Glenn lowered his eyes, thinking that he might be a kinder person than he thought.
I walked along the steps that seemed to assimilate with the water that Glenn showed me.
lesser evil
I couldn’t erase the ripples at all, but unlike the beginning, the proportion of water shaking was noticeably reduced.
Glenn watched it from outside the lake and then moved on again. He turned his back on the clearing at the beginning of Mt. Bukmang.
“I see you, Lord….”
“You don’t have to say hello every time you see him.”
Glen shook his hand and slowly closed his eyes before opening them. Her fingertips trembled in her eyes as calm as moonlight.
“I only came because there was something I couldn’t give you.”
“If it’s something I couldn’t give you…”
“You saved the iron guards and hostages that were kidnapped by the Black Tower, revealed the corruption of the Baekryundae, and captured the soldiers of the Baekkyung and even stole information.”
Glenn continued with a calm tone that seemed to have little emotion.
“They say that one gold plate is too few for that level of work.”
He told me that he had come to give me an extra reward, speaking as if other people had advised him, not himself.
“Um, may I say something?”
Raon bit his lip and bowed his head to Glenn.
“Tell me.”
“It wasn’t just me and the windmill that saved the hostages. If the iron belt hadn’t been able to hold out in the barrier, not a single person could have been saved.”
Glenn said nothing. It seemed to mean to continue.
“It may sound arrogant, but I would like you to divide the reward you will give me among the iron belts. They are real warriors who have raised Sieghart’s name and will continue to do so. I want to get him up quickly.”
I recited exactly what I wanted to say since I was in the audience room.
“hmm.”
Glenn looked this way, then curled up the corner of his mouth. His lips seemed to tremble slightly.
“Cheoljeondae doesn’t have to worry about you. Because it has already been given a worthy reward.”
“yes?”
“I gave you an elixir that can heal wounds and make your body and dantian stronger, and a book of martial arts to go further. They’ll come out hardened even if you don’t worry about them.”
“Ah…”
Raon lowered his blushing face. I thought Glenn wouldn’t take care of it, but he seemed to be looking farther than he was.
“sorry! I’m presumptuous…”
“No, it doesn’t matter.”
Glen let out a gruff voice. However, unlike his voice, the coldness in his eyes seemed to have gone.
“How far did you learn the longbow sword?”
“I barely learned to eat only herbivores.”
Raon shook his head. He had read swordsmanship several times, but could not say that he had mastered swordsmanship.
“Didn’t you use it when fighting the Black Tower and the White Watch?”
“It is foolish to use swordsmanship that has not been properly mastered, so I only used existing swordsmanship.”
“Right.”
Glenn brushed his beard as if that was right. The coldness in his voice seemed to have gone away a little.
“The prize I will give you is not that great. Until the day you fight the Irond in a sword fight. I’ll teach you the longbow sword for an hour from midnight.”
“Ah…”
Raon couldn’t answer and opened his mouth wide.
‘Isn’t that great?’
Being taught by a transcendentalist who is the closest to being the best person on the continent, it was nothing special.
But there was one thing that bothered me.
“Didn’t you postpone swordsmanship training until Rektar-sama returned?”
“Things have changed. And…”
Glenn looked back and curled up his lips.
“Isn’t it his problem that he’s not here?”
He said it was a mistake that the Sword Demon was not here, and gestured as if to pull out the sword.
‘Anyway…’
It’s a good thing for me.
Raon nodded and pulled out the Celestial Sword.
“Unfold the spear sword you drew in the book of martial arts.”
“All right.”
After taking a slow, deep breath, he unleashed his longbow, focusing on the perfection of each herb rather than speed or power.
“It’s just a shell.”
Glenn narrowed his eyes in disappointment.
“The swordsmanships you’ve learned so far would have been able to demonstrate some strength even with just the shell, but spearbow is different.”
He raised his right hand slowly enough to be boring. He raised his capital and pointed to the sky.
Koo-goo-goo-goo!
Glenn’s hand looks like a sword. His sword, sharper than that of the famous swords made by continental artisans, drew a line in the dim sky without a moon.
Jijijijijik!
The dark clouds parted and the red moon, like Glenn’s eyes, reflected my image. It was an overwhelming sight that left me speechless even after seeing it right in front of my eyes.
“There is a law of operation according to the martial arts of the rise. It’s better to learn basic swordsmanship for the rest of your life if you want to focus only on a clean herb diet.”
As Glenn explained, he unfurled his longbow with his capital. At his beckoning, the heavens and the earth howl. This space was in Glenn’s grasp.
“I should have said it before. The world has its own flow and texture.”
“yes.”
Raon nodded, recalling the underwater walking that Glenn had shown him a moment ago.
“Heaven and Earth through the sword power you accumulated. Dominating your space is the trick of the longbow sword.”
As Glenn’s hand fell down, the energy that had been filled with a chillingly sharp energy disappeared as if it were washed with water.
“Can you?”
“…”
With trembling hands, he fixed the Jecheon Sword. It’s not because it’s hard or scary. My heart started beating wildly with the anticipation that I could go further.
“of course.”
Raon smiled as he raised his pupils that seemed to shine with lightning.
“Even if I die, I will follow you.”
* * *
Sieghart Main Medical Corps.
Irond, who was lying alone in the hospital room, chewed his lips while staring at the ceiling.
“Damn it…”
How did things get this way?
He went out on a mission and was not able to play a small role, was attacked by Merlin and was injured, and was even investigated by the Cheongeomdae without being able to rest because of Raon’s snitch.
Baengnyeondae executives came out and made an excuse that they had never sacrificed the members, but it became difficult to go over finely because of the testimonies of the rank and file members.
‘That bastard!’
All of this is because of Raon Sieghart.
If he hadn’t unlocked the secrets of the Black Tower and lashed out at Glenn, this shitty situation wouldn’t have happened.
Googoo goo.
Irond trembled with his clenched fists, making the bed he was lying on shake.
‘never. I will never let you go.’
He gritted his teeth, vowing to inflict fatal injuries on Raon rather than ending with a victory in Dalian.
‘But it’s strange…’
What the hell is he thinking?
Currently, his realm is blocked right in front of the Grand Master’s Wall.
I don’t know why Raon proudly applied for Dalian when he was different from those he had dealt with so far.
‘Even while losing money…’
Seeing that he applied for a gladiator fight while betting two gold plates, it means that he is confident in his own way.
‘Because he’s not an idiot.’
Raon Sieghart is no fool.
When it comes to teasing and mocking opponents, he is no less than Rimmer. It was clear that he applied for a gladiator fight because he was confident that he would win.
‘What are you going to do… um?’
As I guessed Raon’s thoughts, a dark shadow fell over my head.
“You, what are you…”
“…”
I didn’t even feel the presence, but a man with a mask covering his face was standing behind the bed. He covered his mouth with his finger as if to stop talking.
“It has to be finished before the Heavenly Sword Master returns, so just answer. It won’t hurt you.”
It was a voice I had heard. It was clear that there was no reason for a human to arrive here hiding from the Cheongeomdae swordsman and stupidly announce the true voice, rather than letting it be heard on purpose.
“Right now, you cannot guarantee a clear victory against Raon Sieghart.”
“What bullshit…”
“I should have told you to just listen.”
The masked man shot out sharp eyes and set down a thin booklet and neck armor on the bed.
“What is this…”
“It’s a wedge that will make sure you can trample on Raon.”
“Hmm…”
Irond licked his lips and held up the booklet. It was written on the outside that it was white.
“It is martial arts that instantly amplifies your energy by more than twice. If you just use it, you will suffer internal injuries, but Cheongyoungdan will protect your body.”
The masked man opened the glove. The scent of the pure elixir tickled the tip of his nose.
“Cheongyeongdan?”
It was one of the best elixirs for strengthening the mana circuit and danteon.
I don’t know why they give out elixirs that are hard to find even if you have money.
“You only have one thing to do. Break Raon Sieghart’s dantian or cut off his right arm. If it’s your strength for those two things, it’s possible.”
He lowered his gaze as if asking for an answer.
“You’re giving away Cheongyeongdan just for that?”
“You’re dumber than I thought. Raon Sieghart defeating you is a completely different experience.”
The masked man’s voice was ridiculed.
“Raon Sieghart did things that were difficult to achieve at that age, but the influence within the family was not great. I didn’t step forward myself, and I didn’t pay much attention to my family’s affairs and just carried out my mission. But…”
A cool chill bloomed in his sunken eyes.
“If Raon defeats you, things will be different. He challenged you to a sword fight for the average swordsmen of Baekryundae. If he wins, the influence within the family will grow incomparably larger than before. To the point that even the executives couldn’t ignore him.”
“Ah…”
Irond swallowed dryly as he listened to the masked man’s words. That was right. I was only thinking about his confidence and forgot the most important thing.
“I can see why not to kill you.”
The masked man in front of him wanted to destroy Raon, not kill him. So that no one who is not a direct descendent can rise to the top of the family.
“one more. What I came for is…”
“I am not a fool either.”
“…”
The masked man nodded without answering.
“Whatever your master wants will come true.”
“…let me believe it.”
Even though he said he was the owner, the masked man was not surprised.
As he nodded, a blinding wind blew.
When I forcibly lifted my eyelids, the masked man disappeared and the window was slightly open.
“I will follow your will now. It’s just…”
Irond bit his lip as he took the book and the elixir.
“From now on, you will have to worry about me, not Raon.”
* * *
Raon aimed his sword at the sky.
Following the auspicious energy of the silver blade, a magnificent wave arose in the calm lake.
The huge yet heavy sword force cracked the bottom of the lake, and water droplets floated into the air.
Whoa!
As if responding to the flow of the Jecheon sword, the water droplets that flew along the sword pole became a blue dragon’s current and soared up to the black night sky.
As Raon naturally swung the Jecheon sword as if performing a sword dance, the rising water droplets came down as rain and formed a lake again.
with tea.
The lake that caused the blue wave calmly sank as if nothing had happened and quietly illuminated the world.
“Whoa…”
Raon sighed and lowered the jecheon sword.
‘It’s not easy after all.’
It’s not like making the sky with a longbow sword, it’s exhausting just dealing with the lake.
Putting one’s will into nature was not something that can be expressed as difficult.
“Um…”
Raon turned to look at Glenn outside the lake.
He lowered his eyebrows and covered his mouth with his right hand, as if he didn’t like it.
‘Are you disappointed?’
Even after two weeks, his expression was not good, as if he was disappointed with himself for not being able to properly open the spear.
However, contrary to Raon’s thoughts, Glenn was not disappointed at all.
Glenn was desperate to stop the corner of his mouth from rising as he watched Raon with his shoulders drooping.
‘Is that guy really a genius?’
No, even the word genius can’t explain it!
The longbow sword is a swordsmanship of super-elevation. Unlike swordsmanship, which has great effects only by containing the tricks of martial arts, it is true martial arts that can achieve its full potential only when it melts into nature.
No matter how Raon, I thought that it would take years of training to climb to the rock, but after only two weeks, that child was able to catch on and dissolve his will in the water.
‘I have a taste for teaching.’
When Raon teaches one, it analyzes and calculates the heat. I could understand why Rimmer would not let her go but wanted to capture and raise them.
‘His personality is also unique.’
With that level of talent, it would be understandable if he became arrogant or indolent, but he was more sincere than a trainee.
When it’s cold, it’s cold, when it’s warm, it’s warm. It wasn’t because he was a grandson, but because he had the talent and character to stand at the top wherever he went.
‘By the time I stick with the iron, I’ll be able to achieve one herbivore.’
Glenn nodded in satisfaction. I forcibly pressed the corners of my lips that were quivering and approached Raon.
“Raon.”
“yes.”
Raon let out a short sigh and lowered his head.
“What do you think of the sword fight that will take place in two weeks?”
“What do you mean by what do you think…”
“I don’t know.”
Glenn looked into Raon’s questioning eyes and twitched his chin.
“You must have just thought of defeating Irond and freeing the swordsmen who were damaged by him, right?”
“…That’s right.”
Raon shook his head.
‘There’s one more, but…’
Derus Robert and his former self came to mind, but he couldn’t say that.
“You are still young.”
“yes?”
“It is rank swordsmen who form the largest number in Sieghart. It is the executives who have a strong influence, but it is the prosecutors, not the executives, who create that public opinion.”
Glen continued as he looked at the moonlit lake.
“For the sake of those ordinary people, you aimed your sword at Irond, who can be said to be strong. What do you think will happen if you win there?”
“Ah…”
“Yes. Ordinary people are more likely to become your strength. The swordsmen who have only supported you until now will start following you. In other words, you will have influence within the family.”
He slowly turned around with his eyes closed.
“It will be later, but it will affect the direct promotion of Sylvia that you wished for.”
“Um…”
Raon groaned. Of course, I thought it would have an impact, but I didn’t think it would be enough for Glenn to pick it up himself. It seemed that he had done quite a bit of work.
“So there is something I want to ask you. It’s a question I’ve asked before.”
Glenn calmly opened his eyes. The emptiness in his eyes melted and a strange heat filled the space.
“Is your path toward the top of this family?”
Raon swallowed dry saliva as he met Glenn’s eyes as if he had never seen them before.
“I am…”
