Episode 536
Raon stayed for a night at the lodging prepared by Denzel and then headed to the stone tower in front of Mount Haro.
‘My mother and father won’t be buried here.’
This stone tower was built to comfort the victims of the landslide, and in my previous life, my mother and father were killed by Derus’ men while running away with me.
The traces will be different from those laid down by the landslide, so you are probably not under here.
But I couldn’t find them anywhere else, so I came here again.
“Phew….”
Raon sighed, relieved his frustration, and knelt down.
‘They say our enemy has become stronger. Fame, power, money, and even people, there is nothing I can beat yet.’
He spoke what was in his heart, thinking of the mother and father who could not even close their eyes due to worry about their young son.
‘But I have no intention of giving up.’
Raon clenched his fists on his knees.
’10 years, 20 years. No, even if it takes a lifetime, I will uncover Derus Robert’s evil.’
This is not just a greeting to your parents. A promise to myself. It was a pledge to myself that I would not give up no matter what hardships I went through.
‘Don’t leave, just wait a little longer. ‘I’ll bring that demon’s head here.’
Raon put his hands together. After consoling not only their parents but also all those buried here without being able to reveal their true deaths because of Derus, they woke up.
-…
Raon turned his gaze to the right. For some reason, Lars kept his mouth shut and his eyes closed.
‘What are you doing?’
-You don’t know it when you look at it? Aren’t you comforting the lions?
Lars frowned as if asking why he was asking such an obvious question.
-I don’t know how many people get the death they want, but for these people, it’s not that bad. Isn’t it the same as being struck by lightning in a dry sky?
He looked down at the stone tower with bitter eyes.
-Since they are already dead, the distinction between races is meaningless. The king also added a small consolation.
Raon smiled slightly as he looked at Lars who had become quiet.
‘The devil is praying…’
He said he was comforting, but from the side, it looked like he was praying. It was like an onion, the more you peel it, the more new things appear.
-Why are you smiling so unpleasantly?
Lars shook his hands as if he didn’t like that laugh.
‘Is there anything you want to eat?’
-Of course it’s all there! Grilled salmon, grilled scallops, grilled whole pig, grilled dragon!
‘It’s all grilled…’
-I always eat beef jerky and Nadine bread, so I want to chew it properly!
The guy whetted his appetite, saying he missed meat dripping with juice.
-But why are you asking something you won’t eat anyway? To tease the King….
‘Are you going to eat it?’
-Are you serious? Then right now….
‘Go back home.’
Raon smiled and waved his hand. There was no time to relax in order to return in time for Gwangpungdae.
-This damn guy is so real!
‘You should have listened to what people said until the end.’
After a small argument with Lars, who was furious, he returned to the village and Denzel was waiting for him.
“You’re leaving now.”
“It’s all over, so we should go back.”
“Thank you for your hard work.”
Denzel placed his right hand on his chest and carefully lowered his head.
“It was one of the most rewarding assignments I have ever had. It was an honor to be with you. “White Sword Dragon.”
His eyes did not waver even slightly, as if he was revealing his sincerity.
“It was the same for me too.”
Raon smiled slightly and bowed his head towards him.
“Now we can release Raon’s information.”
“information?”
“Dragon slayer Laon Sieghart. “The name that used to only circulate in Aikar will spread throughout the continent.”
Denzel’s face was slightly red, as if he was looking forward to the tinnitus spreading across the continent.
“Then I’ll see you next time. “Dragon slayer.”
He was initially a white sword dragon. When he left, he called himself a dragon slayer and disappeared without a sound.
The black market agents nearby also bowed their heads and disappeared.
-The dragon slayer is a piece of shit! You didn’t even catch and eat the whole lizards like the king, what kind of dragon slayer are you! That’s too much of a name for you!
Lars, who as expected could not understand the atmosphere, intervened.
‘Maybe so.’
Raon was laughing and was about to leave Capoli Village when the village chief approached him from across the street.
“Are you here to see the village?”
The village chief tilted his head, unable to recognize his newly disguised appearance. Wrinkles had increased as if he had gone through a hard time.
“yes. “I stopped by while passing by.”
Raon nodded, looking at the village chief’s tired face.
“This is not what our village really looks like now.”
“What happened?”
“They say some devilish people were hiding in our village and conducting necromantic experiments. “The heroes said they killed all those monsters, so things will soon return to normal.”
At first, the village chief called the black market agents like day robbers, but now he was praising them, calling them heroes.
“If you come again next time, you will be able to see the real side of our village. “Be sure to come again!”
“yes.”
Raon smiled as he looked at the wrinkles around the village chief’s eyes.
“I will definitely come back.”

Coo coo coo coo!
The tremors that started from Glenn’s throne spread beyond the throne room and shook the entire House of Lords.
Now, instead of dust falling from the ceiling, tiny cracks have started to form on the walls and floor.
“Matriarch.”
Roen approached Glenn’s throne and bowed his head.
“These days, more than one prosecutor is said to be frightened by the earthquake. “There are even cracks forming in the castle walls and floor. Please be patient.”
He sighed as he looked at Glenn’s legs affecting the entire Sieghardt.
“Keuhum!”
Glenn cleared his throat and stopped shaking his left leg.
“I know. “I know…”
He bit his lip as he brushed his disheveled hair.
“There has been no contact at all! “Nothing has come since the news that Khaibar was captured!”
Glenn twisted his mouth and started shaking his legs again.
“In this case, it might be quicker for me to go find it myself…”
“You are probably catching the dragon and taking a rest. “He will be back soon.”
When he stood up and tried to leave, Roen shook his head urgently.
“Then you should contact me. “Sylvia comes to visit me every day, and now I have no excuse to refuse.”
Glenn sighed, as if he was afraid to face Sylvia.
“It’s frustrating.”
He shook his head and took out a booklet from his pocket. As he opened the book and began to read slowly, Glenn’s expression began to calm down.
“Huh…”
Roen looked at the book Glenn was holding and sighed in relief. As I am reading the Gospel of Laon, the seizures will stop for a while.
‘But you’ve really changed a lot.’
No one would imagine that the King of Northern Destruction, who was discussing the greatest power on the continent, would calm his mind by reflecting on what his grandson said.
To be honest, these days, it seems like I’m closer to being the best at arm’s length than being the best on the continent.
“Hmm…”
Roen caught the sound coming from outside the Gajujeon and bowed his head to Glenn.
“It looks like the Gwangpungdae people have returned.”
“hmm.”
Glenn nodded slowly and put the Raon Gospel back in his arms.
“If I see those kids, I’ll feel relieved. “Bring it with you.”
“yes.”
Roen smiled and left the throne room.
* * *
Gwangpungdae stood in front of the Sieghart family hall and straightened himself out.
“It’s been a while and I’m nervous.”
Buren swallowed dry saliva and smoothed his sleeves.
“If you haven’t done anything wrong, what’s there to be afraid of?”
Marta frowned, putting her hands on her hips as if wondering what she was afraid of.
“I’m not scared, I’m just nervous.”
“nervous? “Look at him.”
She pointed to Runaan, who was dazed next to her.
“Sometimes you need something thoughtless like that.”
“Hmm…”
Runan was just staring at the sky blankly, as if she really had no thoughts.
“But he’s a bit harsh. “Don’t sit still and at least shake off the dust.”
Buren walked up to Runaan and brushed the dust and snow off her shoulders.
“I want to eat ice cream.”
Runaan let out a low sigh.
“I knew that would come out.”
“Everyone here and Raon.”
“Um…”
Martha closed her mouth. She also bit her lip slightly as if she was thinking of Raon.
“My lord. “Where is he really?”
Buren approached Rimmer and frowned.
“huh? I don’t know either.”
Rimmer shrugged his shoulders.
“yes?”
“I told you I knew!”
“I heard you’re doing well!”
Buren and Marta Runan rushed at Rimmer and grabbed him by the collar at the same time.
“That way you will feel safe. “No news is good news, so you’ll be doing well.”
Rimmer scratched the back of his head and laughed. He spoke lightly of Ra-on’s well-being, as if they had been together until now and then parted ways.
“Hey human!”
“die!”
“Is this something like this?”
Other swordsmen of the Gwangpungdae also rushed in, grabbed Rimmer’s hair and clothes and shook him.
“Now wait a minute! Don’t do this…”
As Rimmer waved his hands quickly in fear, Roen walked out from inside the Gajujeon.
“It’s been a while, everyone.”
Roen let out a hollow laugh and bowed his head to Gwangpungdae.
“The head of the family is waiting. “Everyone, please come in.”
“Whew…”
Rimmer took a step back to Roen’s side without missing the opportunity when everyone’s eyes turned.
“let’s hurry! “You shouldn’t keep the matriarch waiting!”
“It’s not over yet.”
“I’ll see you after the audience.”
Burren and Marta raised their fists and gritted their teeth.
“He’s dead.”
Runan also pouted as he looked at Rimmer.
Rimmer clung to Roen’s side without even touching his ruined clothes or hair.
“But there were some cracks in the walls and buildings. Did some kind of earthquake occur?”
“Hehehe.”
Roen did not answer, but with his usual smile, he guided Rimmer and Gwangpungdae to the front of the throne room and opened the door.
Whoops!
The elegant iron gate opens to reveal a panoramic view of Anhyeonsil. Golden sunlight streamed over the pillars that rose like a giant’s spear, creating grandeur and mystery.
But what catches the eye more than anything is Glenn, who sits in the center. A spirit that seemed to crush the world was creeping out of his eyes, which were redder than the sun.
“That guy is on form again.”
Rimmer let out a low breath and gestured with his chin to the windbreaker behind him.
“let’s go.”
“Hmm….”
“Whoa….”
In contrast, Gwangpungdae entered the throne room feeling the pressure of his arms and legs becoming heavy, as if they were not his own.
“Meet the matriarch!”
“Meet the matriarch!”
Following Rimer’s greeting, Gwangpungdae also knelt and bowed his head.
“Everyone wake up.”
At Glenn’s gesture, Rimmer and Gwangpungdae raised their heads and straightened their backs. He looked at Burren, who was standing right behind Rimmer.
“Burren.”
“Yep!”
Buren’s voice jumped up as if he didn’t know he was going to be called.
“Is your left eye okay?”
“At first, my eyesight improved so much that it gave me a headache, but now I’m used to it.”
“I don’t feel any sympathy, but it is an eye whose origin is unknown. “If you only trust your eyes, you could end up in a crisis, so always keep various situations in mind and make the best decision.”
“I’ll keep that in mind!”
Burren took Glenn’s advice to heart and lifted his chin.
“Runan.”
Glenn’s eyes turned to Runaan, who stood to Buren’s right.
“Is there any pain in the wounds on your abdomen and thighs?”
“It’s okay now.”
Runaan nodded calmly, as she did to everyone else.
“You don’t have to sacrifice yourself to protect others. “Think deeply about what more you can do.”
“yes.”
She answered so briefly that it felt light, but her eyes became clear as if she was thinking about Glenn’s advice.
“Martha.”
Glenn lowered his eyes and called Martha.
“You seem to be concerned that you haven’t been able to help your colleagues yet.”
“Hmm…”
Marta looked at Buren and Runaan once and bit her lip.
“My colleagues almost died protecting me, so I think this is something I will have to live with for the rest of my life.”
“That is an insult to your colleagues.”
“Ah…”
“All you have to do from now on is act as usual and think of your colleagues first in times of danger, just like your colleagues did. “There is no such thing as debt between colleagues.”
“…All right.”
She nodded, saying she would protect everyone even if it meant risking her life.
“Dorian.”
“Yeik!”
At Glenn’s fourth call, Dorian nodded, shaking his whole body.
“I heard from Rimmer that you are the greatest coward in the Gwangpungdae.”
“That is correct.”
Dorian lowered his eyes, admitting that he was a coward.
“There is no coward who thinks of others more than himself. “If you risk your life for your comrades, you are not a coward.”
Glenn looked at Dorian and tilted his chin seriously.
“You’ve grown. Dorian Sephia.”
“Ah…”
Dorian couldn’t answer. He lowered his head and trembled his shoulders.
After that, Glenn continued to give praise and advice to each member of the Gwangpungdae.
“Mark Gotten.”
“yes.”
Finally, Mark Goeten came forward and bowed his head.
“This world is inherently unfair. The wall of unlearning is thicker than a mountain for some and thinner than paper for others. If you worry about others, you will miss out on something precious within yourself. From now on, move forward while contemplating only yourself, not others.”
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
Mark Goeton nodded, putting his hand on his chest.
“Hey…”
Rimmer grinned and pointed his finger at himself.
“Do you have anything to say to me?”
“You…”
Just as Glenn was frowning, there was a knock on the door.
“Come in.”
The door opened and Loen, who had been waiting outside, stuck out his face.
“There is someone who came to see the head of the family. What should I do?”
“I have something to say to Gwangpungdae right now, so call me later.”
“All right. Then, why don’t you
at least have tea with me…” Roen smiled brightly, as if it went well, and tried to close the door.
“hmm?”
Glenn frowned as he looked at Loen like that.
‘Tea?’
Roen seemed friendly, but it wasn’t often that he shared tea with others.
“for a moment. “Who came to visit?”
“Hmm…”
Roen stuck his head out again and lowered his eyebrows.
“The leader of the Gwangpung Unit has returned.”
“Everyone, right now! “Stop by now!”
“Raon?”
“Is Raon here?”
Glenn stuttered for the first time and gestured quickly. Limer and Gwangpungdae also turned around in surprise.
“That’s too bad.”
Roen smiled and opened the door to the throne room.
Coo coo coo coo!
A man wearing a black robe was standing next to the smiling Roen.
As he took off his robe, his blond hair, brighter than the sunlight that enveloped the throne room, fluttered out, revealing the bridge of his nose as straight as a blade.
The red smile that gently bloomed at the corner of his mouth contrasted with his tattered uniform, making it impossible to take your eyes off him like a devil.
that buck
Raon walked seriously, making eye contact with Gwangpungdae, who was looking back. He stood behind Rimmer and knelt down toward Glenn.
“Meet the matriarch….”
“That’s it!”
Glenn waved his hand as if there was no need.
“Where have you been and what have you been doing to only come here now?”
His face was red, as if he was angry.
“As a result of the barrier breaking, I fell into a corner of the Owen Kingdom and my aunt saved me. While I was passed out, he went out to sea…”
“What?”
Glenn’s lips turned blue, as if they were frozen.
“What did you just say!”
“yes? “He said he was going to go to sea.”
Raon blinked as he looked at Glenn.
“In front of him!”
“The barrier broke and fell into the corner of Owen Kingdom…”
“After that!”
“Aunt…”
“Aunt…”
Glenn’s hand holding the throne trembled. Not only the throne room, but the entire matriarch’s hall began to vibrate.
“Imooooo?”
