Episode 646:
A small tavern behind the royal capital.
Even though it was broad daylight, the inside of the bar was full of people enjoying drinks and meals.
“you. Have you ever heard of Haegeomji?”
The wizard in brown robes set down his drink and narrowed his eyes.
“Isn’t it sea black? “Is this your first time hearing this?”
The driver sitting across from me calmly shook his head.
“Anyway, the news is slow.”
“I was at the front until yesterday, so it’s strange to know news from the royal capital.”
“It’s not a story about the royal road, but something to do with the Tomb of Sword Zone.”
“Tomb of Sword Zone?”
“You don’t even know that Sword Zone’s tomb was discovered?”
“Of course you know that!”
The driver wrinkled his nose, telling me not to ignore him.
“Actually, they said that Sword Zone was not neutral but belonged to Sieghart. “The place where his grave was discovered was also Sieghardt’s land.”
The wizard in brown robes leaned his upper body forward and revealed the secret of the sword zone. Perhaps to hear him speak, the noisy interior of the bar became quiet.
“Are you sure?”
The driver jumped up as if he couldn’t believe it.
“If you look at all the people who survived there saying the same thing, it’s definitely not a lie.”
“Then the legacy of the Sword Zone is….”
“Perhaps it is thanks to the consideration of our ancestors, Lord Gwangpung. Raon Sieghardt ate it.”
The brown-robed wizard nodded quickly.
“Huh, he’s still a monster now, but I can’t imagine how far he would grow if he got the legacy of Sword Zone…” The
knight stammered as if he was jealous of Raon.
“okay. “It’s like a monster has wings.”
“But what is the Haegeomji you mentioned at first? “Is it related to Raon Sieghardt?”
“It looks like you’ve regained your senses now. That’s right.”
The wizard felt that the entire tavern was paying attention to him and raised his voice.
“As you might have guessed, not everyone who sought Sword Zone’s legacy ended up in the grave. Many of them were waiting as allies outside the tomb. “To attack the party bringing the relics.”
“You tried to do something hyena.”
The driver frowned, saying they were ugly guys.
“That’s right. You must be exhausted and injured. I was trying to take advantage of that gap. But…”
The brown-robed wizard pressed his lips together.
“They didn’t have ‘crazy-headed monster’ in mind.”
“A crazy monster with a huge head?”
“I mean Raon Sieghardt. They say he came out of the tomb and made a declaration before being attacked. From now on, this is Sieghart’s land. “Put down your sword or go away.”
“So? “What happens after that?”
The driver seemed excited and his hand holding the glass trembled. Everyone in the bar was so focused that they couldn’t even hear them breathing.
“They say that 10 seconds later, Raon Sieghardt held only a sword sheath and destroyed all the warriors and wizards there. “Every single one of them had their heads broken.”
“Big head?”
“There were hundreds of soldiers, but none of them were dead, and only their heads were broken. Truly fearful…”
The brown-robed wizard shook his shoulders as if he were afraid.
“They say they crushed his head later even though he threw away his weapon and ran away. So now, in front of Sword Zone’s grave, a red mountain has been created from the discarded weapons and the blood flowing from his head.”
“So you’re a monster with a crazy head…”
“That’s right. Sieghardt’s sacred place, where he was moved by his own consideration of not causing any deaths or the fear that single-handedly broke the heads of hundreds of people, and now has to unleash his sword on that land. “They call it Haegeomji.”
He shook his head, saying that he was scared of Raon but also respected him.
“Wow, I can’t believe it. “I can’t believe I hit hundreds of warriors with just the sheath of my sword…”
“I didn’t just hit them, I broke their heads.”
“No, it’s a head or something. “I don’t quite believe it.”
The driver frowned, saying he couldn’t understand.
“If I had obtained the inheritance from Sword Zone’s tomb, wouldn’t I have fought against Oma and other forces? But how can you defeat hundreds of people?”
“I didn’t knock him down, I broke his head!”
“okay. head! “I can’t believe you broke that head!”
“Isn’t there evidence there?”
The brown-robed wizard raised his finger and pointed to the right. Not only the driver but everyone in the tavern’s eyes turned towards him.
“Ehehehe….”
“Ihihihi….”
The swordsman and the wizard with bandages on their heads were laughing bizarrely as they placed empty drinking glasses on their heads.
“Those two people are warriors who lived in that hell. Even after I came back with a broken head, it was still in that state. “The therapist said it would take half a year for me to recover.”
“Is that thing alive?”
The driver gaped as he looked at the two mesmerized people.
“You lived for now, right?”
The brown-robed wizard calmly shook his head.
“Haegeomji…”
The driver stroked his hair, which had only a few hairs left on it, and swallowed dry saliva.
“I shouldn’t even urinate in that direction….”
***
“…That’s how the rumor is spreading.”
Chamber smiled and waved his hand.
“….”
Raon closed his eyes tightly.
‘A monster with a crazy head…’
The rumor was so strange.
They tested their strengthened forces and quickly organized the exhausted Gwangpungdae to avoid damage, but an unexpected rumor spread.
However, it didn’t seem like it was a bad rumor at all. Because it meant that more people recognized the area as Sieghardt’s property.
-Smashing the head worked! Not that head, but this head. Kehehe! Keck!
Lars tapped his head and then let out a dry cough.
‘You cough every time you talk. ‘Stay still.’
Raon pushed Lars into the bracelet and looked at the chamber.
“But how can you hear rumors since you are with me now?”
“I wonder if an archmage can’t even do that.”
Chamber put a lollipop in his mouth, telling him not to ignore the wizard.
“Actually, I didn’t believe everything you said.”
Her eyes sparkled with a yo-yo light. The wizard who had shown only friendliness a moment ago was not here.
“I checked whether what you said was correct by combining external rumors, and it doesn’t seem to be too far off.”
As soon as those words reached my ears, the atmosphere in the chamber became lighter, like seeing a child again.
Raon bit his lip.
‘He is a scary person…’
He was not a person who could judge based on what he saw, as he smiled on the outside but contrasted rumors and my testimony on the inside. As expected, the sound of Yukhwang came out.
“So you broke his head, right?”
“…It’s true that I woke up, but I didn’t know that the rumor would spread so quickly.”
It moved quite quickly, but I never thought that the rumor would move first.
“In essence, rumors travel faster than feet. It’s probably spreading not just to the royal capital, but to the entire continent, right? “It must be easy to eat in that area, right?”
Chamber clapped lightly, congratulating him.
“It’s amazing that you didn’t kill even one person. “It has the attitude that a strong person should have.”
King Recross nodded as if he was proud of him.
“No. These guys are obvious. “It’s better to cut off the head, not the head.”
He lowered his eyebrows, saying he didn’t like the chamber.
“I didn’t want to see blood because of what happened to Kuzan and Barfil.”
“Hmm, I guess so.”
King Recross nodded as if he understood.
“But isn’t it scarier to break your head and make a fool?”
Chamber tilted his head with a finger on his chin.
“…There is one thing left to show you two.”
Raon didn’t have anything to say, so he changed his mind right away.
“Is there something I need to show you?”
“It seems like I’m changing the tone, but it’s okay.”
Chamber smiled and nodded.
“This is it.”
Looking at the two people, he took out a piece of the sword sheath imbued with an undercurrent. The piece was still stained black.
“Is it a piece of pottery?”
“I feel a very gloomy energy.”
Unlike Recross, who was beyond the dimension, Chamber narrowed his eyes as soon as he saw the sculpture.
“After I defeated the warriors around the tomb…”
Raon told Chamber and Recross about the situation in which he was attacked by Derus.
“So this black energy is the aura of the guy who attacked you?”
“That’s right. “He is believed to be the leader of the force that planned this incident.”
The sword sheath of the Jecheon Sword was made by Vulkan himself, the commander of the world. Because it has the effect of trapping the Auror inside, it was able to trap Derus’ undercurrent, albeit for a short period of time.
“for a moment. Could it be that the energy contained within this is death?”
Chamber chewed his lip as he played with the scabbard pieces.
“yes. This is an aura thrown by a transcendental person. According to what Aris said, it is said to be at a level that even reaches our head of the family.”
“That pirate girl?”
“yes.”
“If her eyes were the same, she wouldn’t be looking at useless things…”
She said she was surprised and touched her lips.
“This is certainly valuable information. thank you.”
Chamber nodded with serene eyes.
“I wish I could see it too.”
Recross looked at the scabbard and quenched his appetite.
“Because I remembered. “I’ll send it to you.”
Chamber snapped her fingers, and the scabbard in her hand moved into Recross’s hand.
“Huh…”
Rekros sighed as he looked at the sword sheath.
“Death is really young. “I can’t believe this kind of energy existed…”
He also widened his blue eyes as if he was surprised.
However, Raon was surprised in a different way.
‘Was the movement spell that easy?’
The distance between Balkar and Owen is considerable. I sent the sword away a little while ago, and this time I moved the sheath piece with one finger.
Even if Chamber was an archmage, I never thought he would use movement magic so freely.
“It’s not that surprising.”
Chamber smiled slightly as if he understood Raon’s question.
“Because there is a small dimensional line connected between this room and that guy’s room.”
“A dimensional line?”
When Raon saw Recross, he nodded as if he was right.
“You two were closer than I thought.”
“Because she was my teacher.”
“Master?”
“Yes. He has been my liberal arts teacher since I was 5 years old. “I even lied about my identity and came in.”
Recross smiled softly as if he was remembering old times.
“Why are you even talking about old times?”
Chamber put his hat on as if he didn’t like it.
Raon blinked.
‘5 years old? ‘A cultured teacher?’
Recross appears to be middle-aged, but in reality, he is no different from Glenn.
If he was given a liberal arts teacher when he was 5 years old, Chamber’s age was far beyond expectations.
“Then, how old is Mr. Chamber…”
Unable to hold back his curiosity, he smacked his lips without realizing it.
Dang!
At that moment, Raon’s vision was cut off.
***
“Uhm….”
Raon lifted his trembling eyelids. I see an unfamiliar ceiling. Geometric patterns were engraved as if they were constellations.
‘This is…’
-Anyway!
Lars made a crumpled face.
-Your snout is always the problem!
‘Snout? ‘What did I do?’
Raon smoothed his temples and frowned.
-Ugh! That’s it!
Lars muttered, “You can’t do that,” and waved his hand.
“You’re awake.”
It’s Aris’ voice. I looked to my right and saw that she was sitting on the sofa and smiling.
“What did you say to that witch? “Is this the first time you’ve seen your face crumpled like that?”
“Ah…”
I remember thinking that he had wrinkled his face. As I was talking about my age, I suddenly remembered how my vision had darkened.
“I asked Mr. Chamber about his age.”
“ah! so!”
Aris couldn’t hold back and burst into laughter.
“Ah, that makes sense. In fact, the witch is a hundred years old…”
As she was about to speak, the ceiling distorted and lightning struck from the dry sky.
Couuuuuuuuuuck!
Aris looked up at the ceiling that was shaking as if it was about to collapse and quickly shook her head.
“Let’s end this story here.”
She waved her hand as if she was watching.
“witch. “What did Mr. Chamber say?”
“They both said they were grateful to me.”
Raon lifted his upper body and sighed.
“I survived thanks to you two, but I don’t know why I heard you say thank you.”
“That’s natural.”
Rimmer opened the door and came in, shaking his head.
“Kuzan and Barfil wanted to save you even to the point of death, and you killed the dark side and saved the people just as they expected. “He said he was grateful that his subordinates’ deaths were not in vain.”
He continued speaking with a serious look in his eyes, unlike usual.
“That is the attitude one must have as the head of the Six Emperors. “You should also take this opportunity to learn.”
“…All right.”
It is rare for Rimmer to give such advice. I once again engraved the eyes and voices of King Recross and Chamber in my heart.
“receive.”
Aris threw a piece of the blackened sword sheath.
“I checked with both of you carefully. “He said he would help with the search.”
“Oh, thank you.”
Raon took the piece of the sword sheath and carefully placed it in his arms.
‘It’s all over now.’
The reason I came to Balkar was not only to announce the deaths of Kuzan and Barfil.
The purpose was to inform the Chamber and King Récartes of the undercurrents left behind by Derus Robert, and it appears that they were properly accepted.
If Derus were to use the undercurrent, he would be caught by the two people, so it was a huge benefit.
“What are you going to do now?”
Rimmer crossed his arms and lifted his chin.
“I have to go back to Sieghardt.”
– Hehe! Keck!
“But…”
Raon smiled slightly as he heard Lars coughing.
“I’ll just have to eat some mint chocolate ice cream before I go back.”
-Oh oh!
Lars screamed and jumped out onto the bracelet.
-When I told him I was eating mint chocolate, my cough suddenly stopped! As expected, the power of the grassroots is amazing!
‘If the coughing stops, there’s no need to eat…’
-Kehehehe! KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Kkkkkkk!
Lars started howling like an animal. Blood seemed to be flowing from the guy’s neck.
‘…Because I’m going to eat it. stop.’
***
A group of people dressed in black stood in the garden in front of the Sieghardt Annex.
“The garden has become larger. “Has the building been expanded as well?”
A blond middle-aged man standing at the front of the group sneered as he inspected the garden and annex building.
“I think we can start with that. Vice Wonju.”
He bowed his head to the white-haired old man standing on his right.
“Don’t be stupid. “Creeson.”
The old man called Bu Won-ju frowned as if he felt pitiful.
“The garden was originally this size, and the expansion of the annex received permission from the state of California. If you touch an unnecessary part, you may face a counterattack. “It looks like they didn’t investigate properly.”
“I’m sorry.”
Chrisson held the back of his head and lowered his head.
“I thought they were all just scarecrows anyway without Raon Sieghart, so…”
“Tsk.”
Vice Wonju briefly clicked his tongue.
“Karun, who used to suppress the minor issues in the collateral world, ended up like that, so come to your senses. “This is the only place where you can hold Raon Sieghardt’s leash.”
“But I really don’t know if it will work out…”
Cryson sighed as if he was worried.
“Do you know how to subdue a distracted lion?”
“Um, that’s it…”
“If it lunges at you from behind and grabs you by the back of your neck, you won’t be able to move. “I have never forgotten the memory of being bitten on the back of the neck by my mother when I was young.”
Boo Wonju twisted his mouth.
“In order to hold Raon Sieghardt’s leash, you must first put the leash around Sylvia’s neck.”
He glared at the annex with disgust in his eyes.
“Even if dirt gets into my eyes, I cannot see the fugitive bitch who crawled out of Sieghardt on her own and the unknown bastard whose seed is standing at the center of Sieghardt.”
“That is correct.”
Chrisson also nodded, saying he couldn’t accept that much.
“Then come to your senses and follow me.”
Vice Wonju walked toward the annex with cold eyes. Chris and the soldiers from the Senate followed suit.
Squeaky.
They stood in front of the annex, trampling on the flowers blooming in the garden even though there was a path.
“Hmm.”
Chris, who received a glance from Buwonju, cleared his throat and came forward.
“It’s a senate event! Everyone in the annex must come out!”
He shouted first to scare them, but his voice disappeared just before he reached the annex.
Ugh.
The main door of the annex opened quietly, and a female swordsman with blond hair who seemed to melt in the sunlight, wearing a white military uniform, walked out.
“Uhm…”
Bu Wonju chewed his lip as he faced the calm red eyes of the female prosecutor.
‘Is that Sylvia?’
