Episode 698
Raon finished preparing for life and death and left the room.
There was no one inside the annex, so I went outside and saw Sylvia and her maids shoulder to shoulder in front of the garden.
“Huh…”
Feeling burdened by the wet gaze, I let out a low breath and went down the stairs.
“mother. Don’t worry…”
“Why am I so tired!”
I was about to stand in front of Sylvia and say hello, but she raised her hand and hit me hard on the shoulder. The black dragon gun shook slightly with a popping sound.
“If you are Sieghardt’s swordsman, you should at least say that you will win and come back!”
Sylvia nodded as if telling her to speak quickly.
“Uh, Mom?”
Raon blinked at Sylvia. The reaction was so different from what I expected that I couldn’t help but say “mother”.
“Ma’am, you’re right! “Please tell me that you will destroy everything, whether it’s your father or the kitchen!”
Helen stood next to Sylvia and raised her small fist.
“young master!”
“I want to hear from you, Master, that I will return safely!”
“Tell me please!”
The other maids also bowed their heads to tell her that they would win.
“Please.”
Judiel, who had kept his mouth shut except for what was necessary, also came forward.
“Hmm…”
Raon let out a low groan as he looked at Sylvia and the maids’ eyes, which seemed to be filled with a haze.
‘I thought it would have a mourning house atmosphere.’
Everyone is bright.
Whenever they went on a dangerous mission or had a sword fight, I was always worried because Sylvia and her maids filled the sea with tears, but today, surprisingly, everyone looked at peace.
My worries seemed to be washed away.
“okay.”
I straightened my shoulders, which were covered in Sylvia’s warmth, and looked at everyone.
“Because I will come and destroy the North-South alliance. “Please prepare dinner.”
Raon raised his hand and clapped with the maids.
“Words have power.”
Sylvia smiled, holding her right arm with her left hand.
“Because I always kept my promises. I will believe you this time too. son.”
“yes. Do not worry.”
Raon gave Sylvia a hug for the last time and left the garden.
“Ah, mother. “What I told you before was…” I
had something I couldn’t say, so I looked back and saw Sylvia and the maids, who had been smiling sweetly, with their hands clasped and their shoulders shaking like frightened animals.
‘…also.’
The smiles and laughter that Sylvia and the maids showed a little while ago seemed to have been an act of not putting pressure on me.
Everyone had faces that looked like they would shed tears if touched.
“I’ll be back.”
Raon bowed and turned his back on Sylvia and the maids, whose eyes were red.
‘If Lars had seen it, he would have told me not to make my mom cry.’
After tapping the ice flower bracelet, I entered the main street and headed towards the main gate.
“You look good.”
When we arrived near the 5th training ground, Rimmer yawned and came next to us. The entire Gwangpungdae followed behind him.
“I couldn’t sleep because of someone.”
“I slept soundly.”
Raon waved his hand as if teasing Rimmer.
“Ah, I’m suddenly upset.”
Contrary to his expression of being annoyed, Rimmer let out a small laugh.
“You can’t get angry! “It’s even more of a problem if the person fighting today didn’t sleep well!”
Marta hit Rimmer with her shoulder and frowned.
“I slept well too.”
Runaan nodded, touching her transparent skin that seemed to shine through the sun.
“I didn’t ask you!”
“Nachalnyeo. “You’re narrow-minded.”
“This is real!”
Marta and Runan put their foreheads together and began to growl, just like when they argued in the 5th training ground.
“Wouldn’t you feel nervous watching that childish fight?”
Burren chuckled as he looked at Marta and Runaan.
“I feel like there’s tension that wasn’t there before.”
Raon smiled slightly as he looked at the leaders one by one.
“Kuh…”
I turned around at the sound of gagging and saw Dorian gurgling with his tongue sticking out.
“I’m so nervous, I think I’m going to die…”
His complexion was pale, as if he was about to collapse at any moment.
“It’s pathetic.”
Crane clicked his tongue as he looked at Dorian. However, the area under his eyes was dark, as if he had not been able to sleep.
“I can’t do it…”
Dorian muttered that he couldn’t stand it anymore, then took out a round cookie from his stomach pocket and started stuffing it into his mouth.
Strangely enough, when he put cookies in his mouth, his nausea stopped.
“This is delicious.”
Runan, who had been fighting with Marta, was now next to Dorian and eating snacks together.
“Then shall I sing a song?”
Yua laughed, stood in front of the band, and began to sing.
It was a military song by Habunseong, who considered the northern wind sacred, and when Yua’s voice came into it, it gently calmed the harsh emotions, like a song waiting for spring.
“My lord.”
Mark Goeton quietly approached and lowered his head as if he believed him.
Raon slowed his pace and looked at the backs of Rimmer and Gwangpungdae.
The trembling that had been stimulating my mind subsided when I saw my comrades who were chaotic yet strangely orderly.
“You guys are always loud.”
Trevin, the leader of the Iron Squadron, approached with the Iron Squadron and let out a big smile.
“Lord Cheoljeon.”
He and the Iron Squadron bowed their heads because they were the ones who participated as escorts today.
“Please take care of me today.”
Trevin clenched his chin and thrust his fist forward.
“I have to ask you nicely.”
Raon laughed as he bumped fists with Trevin.
“What is that? Is that how young people these days greet each other?”
Cheryl landed with the sound of long guns flapping in the sky. She brought out the word young people, looking as young as a toddler.
“Lord Heavenly Sword.”
Raon bowed politely to Cheryl. She was the person in charge of this life-or-death situation.
“Say hello to me too.”
Cheryl said it looked good and held out her fist like Trevin.
“yes. i look forward to.”
Raon smiled slightly and bumped fists with Cheryl.
“If you’re young, you can’t use your own hands. Just a young face. What you’re doing is just plain old…”
“Shut up.”
Cheryl thrust out the back of her hand and hit Rimmer in the mouth.
“Kuek…”
She kicked Rimmer’s trembling butt and stood in front of Raon again.
“You can win today, right?”
“of course.”
“okay. “I will believe it.”
Cheryl showed a faint smile and took the lead with Cheongeomdae.
Raon calmly took a breath as he looked at the fists he had bumped into with Trevin and Cheryl.
‘I think I can do it.’
Sylvia and the maids strengthened their resolve to win and come back, Rimer and the Gwangpungdae relaxed as usual, and Cheryl and Trevin gave them a sense of relief that it was okay to do anything.
It didn’t seem like he would lose no matter who came, other than his father.
“Aren’t you coming?”
Rimmer waved his hand as if telling him to come quickly. Other people also stopped walking and tilted their heads.
“going.”
Raon released the power in his fists and walked towards everyone.
‘There’s still a lot left to do in Sieghardt.’
I nodded, looking into eyes full of trust.
‘I will defeat my father today.’
* * *
The middle of the Ravel River, where waves are as rough as the ocean.
“It’s a shame.”
Cheryl clicked her tongue as she watched the river’s waves roll up.
“It would have been easier if I had gotten rid of it in advance, but I didn’t know that the date of life or death would come so quickly.”
She frowned as if she was annoyed that she had created a situation that threatened Raon.
“I’ll tell the joke later…”
“Joke?”
“No, wasn’t it a joke?”
Rimmer broke into a cold sweat and shook his head.
“Roen personally planned the assassination. What kind of joke is this?”
Cheryl said with a cool look in her eyes that it was a serious plan.
“Well, those brats are really…”
Rimmer shook his head. Everyone in the throne room was out of their minds.
“It’s okay because it’s already in the past. what do you think?”
Cheryl crossed her arms and gestured.
“Well…”
Rimmer sighed briefly.
“If it’s at the level of the Vice King we saw during the maritime auction, Raon will be able to win. But…”
He continued, looking at the turbulent river.
“If my father had grown up in the meantime, it would have been difficult. A Grand Master-level martial artist may not be able to leave his original position for 10 years, or he may be able to completely transform himself in just one day.”
“I think the same.”
Cheryl nodded, looking at Rimmer.
“The last time I looked at him, Raon would have defeated him, but if he had changed, it wouldn’t be easy. “In the end, it’s up to the king.”
She trembled with her fingertips as if she was a little worried.
“I searched not only at the non-banquet, but also on the black market, but I couldn’t find any information about my father.”
Iron Lord Trevin shook his head as he walked between Cheryl and Rimmer.
“It looks like he hasn’t moved from headquarters in a year.”
“This is my feeling…”
Cheryl twisted her lips as she twisted her wrist.
“It seems like you’ve grown quite a bit, my lord.”
“How do you know that?”
“Those.”
She came first and wrinkled her nose as she looked at the North and South Korean warriors waiting.
“There is no wavering in your eyes at all. “I don’t think my father even thinks about losing.”
“Vice King Roman is nothing short of a god on the Ravel River. “Isn’t it because there is faith, regardless of force?”
Trevin swallowed dryly as if he did not want to believe it.
“Those are the residents here. These enemies are no different from fanatics who only follow power. “If I had that level of trust, I would definitely have become stronger.”
Rimmer shook his head as if what Cheryl said was right.
“But I don’t like that bloody atmosphere.”
He furrowed his brows as he looked at the warriors of the North and South alliance who were glaring fiercely at him.
“five. “No, six?”
Rimmer raised his finger as he looked at the warriors of the North and South Alliance, who appeared to be strong.
“The creditor’s salary is six, so maybe we should have called in one more.”
“it’s okay.”
Cheryl waved her hand lightly.
“Because those aren’t the problems.”
She pushed back her purple hair blowing in the wind, saying the real thing had not come yet.
“My lord.”
As the three people were looking at the Ravel River in silence, Burren approached from behind.
“Our preparations are complete.”
“What about Raon?”
“I’m resting in the barracks.”
Burren pointed to the black tent erected at the far left.
“great job. Still, you never know. “Please take a closer look around.”
“All right.”
He nodded and moved with the third group to the outside of the river.
“Raon. “You’ve grown a lot, haven’t you?”
Cheryl smiled slightly as she looked at the black tent where Raon was.
“okay. “I couldn’t even imagine that a guy who couldn’t even run properly would become a grand master and face a life-or-death battle with his father.”
Rimmer nodded and chuckled.
“When I think about it that way, this is also a battle between the old era and the new era.”
Cheryl looked at her hands and narrowed her eyes.
“Old era and new era?”
Trevin tilted his head as if asking what he was saying.
“Raon has overcome countless hardships so far, but this time is a little different.”
Cheryl clenched her fists and looked up at the sky.
“Most of the warriors that Raon fought were warriors of the new era who grew up under the rule of the Six Emperors. “But my father is different.”
“okay. “Because he is a monster from an old era, like us, who started the era of the Six Emperors.”
Rimmer nodded as he listened to Cheryl’s words.
“There were many young warriors who rose to fame like the 12 Stars of the Continent, but they all collapsed before the monsters of the old world. “This life-or-death battle is not just a battle between Sieghart and the North and South Alliance, but also a battle between the old and the new.”
Raon, a young warrior who represents the new era, and the old father, who was the axis of the old era. The duel between the two was also a clash between the new era and the old era.
If Raon won, it meant that a new era would open, and if his father won, it meant that the old era was still an unreachable sky.
“Well, I see. Certainly, there have been no cases where executives at the level of Jeonju of the Six Emperors Five Demons have fallen…”
“It’s coming.”
As Tverin swallowed his saliva in nervousness, Cheryl held up her finger. A small black line was caught on the tip of her slender finger.
Coo coo coo coo!
The black ship cut through the rough waves of the Ravel River at once, revealing its enormous majesty. It was the second battleship of the North-South Alliance and the bad luck of the father king.
“Bad luck…”
Just its name alone gave off an eerie force as the bad luck approached the river’s edge.
“I’ll call Raon.”
“No, you don’t need to.”
Rimmer pointed to Raon, who was leaving the tent alone.
“The atmosphere is just right.”
He wore a long robe with black dragon scales, and the red sun shined on the sword he wore at his waist.
The blonde hair blowing in the river wind and the calm red eyes captured the nobility of a hero and the spirit of a warrior at the same time.
Jerk.
With every step toward the river, a wave of subversive energy blooms. Peerless beauty and extreme spirit. An intimidating feeling as if Glenn Sieghart, known as the Thunder God, had permeated the indigo shadow.
“Anyway…”
Rimmer twisted his mouth as he looked at Raon’s broad back.
“I don’t think it will fall.”
* * *
Even though I didn’t display my spirit, I could feel my father approaching.
Raon stood at the edge of the river with his back straight. A vicious energy wave that seemed to distort the river flowed out from above the battleship that was gradually getting closer.
Quaaaaaaaaaaa!
A loud noise sounded like a shell exploding from the deck of the evil cloud, and the sky suddenly turned dark.
It’s the viceroy. With a heat-like energy wave heating the cool air, King Roman landed on the river.
‘It’s changed.’
Unlike in the past when an uncontrollable force erupted, not even a small wave rose beneath the father’s feet. It meant having complete control over one’s own power.
Just by his appearance, my heart started pounding in my ears as if lightning had struck.
“Dragon Slayer Laon Sieghart.”
Vice King Roman wore a bright smile on his shoulder, just like three years ago.
“Vice King Roman.”
Raon called his father’s name and relaxed his fingertips.
The author’s hot, beating heart told him how strong he was and how much he had become stronger. He came back to this river having grown to a level that is comparable to mine.
“You’ve become stronger.”
Roman nodded as if pleased.
“You can lift me to a higher place.”
A massive spirit blazed above his axe.
“3 years ago. “You let me and Gwangpungdae go in a three-way duel with my teacher.”
I rose above the river. They stood face to face in front of their father, drawing concentric circles as if the waves were dancing.
“I will give up three numbers.”
He raised Raon’s Jecheon Sword and took a sword bow. I raised my head with respect and pride. The red eyes gave off a brighter glow than the sun reflecting on the river water.
“come.”
