Episode 815
In front of a quietly burning bonfire.
Raon looked at the martial arts book he received from Darkhan and let out a small laugh.
‘It’s amazing to see it again.’
The structure and operation method are ridiculously clean.
Igieogeom is an esoteric martial art that very few people have mastered even throughout the history of the continent.
It is difficult to master even for a transcendental master, but this book of martial arts delves into the techniques of Igigeeogeom in detail so that even grand masters can understand it.
‘I knew his ability was great, but I never thought it would be this level.’
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Sieghardt’s ancestor, whom he saw, was the god of martial arts, as he created rare martial arts such as Comic Ball and the Ring of Fire, and even interpreted the Igigeo Sword at a level that anyone could understand.
‘He is truly a true Grand Master.’
Although he himself was inventing various sword techniques and martial arts, it seemed that he would not be able to keep up with his ancestors at the moment.
‘But what on earth is a person of that caliber preparing for?’
Sieghardt’s ancestors traveled throughout the continent, planting seeds for the future.
I was curious about what a person so strong would prepare like that for.
‘Is it because of the monster I saw in the cave?…’
– That’s all I have!
As Raon was reflecting on Sieghart’s ancestor’s dream, Lars jumped up.
‘hmm?’
-If King Bon had his heart set on it, he could have created a martial arts art that was even better than that!
Ras pounded his chest, saying that he could make a martial arts sword stronger than the sword.
‘For example?’
He gestured briefly towards Lars.
-If you are the real king, you can make countless Iggyeo swords out of ice and throw them away!
‘Oh, try it.’
-Eh?
Lars opened his eyes wide. He looked embarrassed, as if he didn’t expect to be asked to try it, since he usually just ignored it even if he tried to brag.
‘They said they could do it. Give it a try.’
-Uh…
the guy swallowed dry saliva and turned his head.
-Bo, why would the king make you do something good? It’s simple to make, but they’ll never tell you!
‘No, you don’t have to tell me, so just do it.’
-That’s it! Don’t you just follow me just by looking at me! You cannot hand over military secrets!
Lars quietly retreated, using the absurd excuse of military secrets.
‘anyway.’
Raon chuckled and looked at the book again. Perhaps it was because we had become closer than before, but Lars’ bravado and pranks seemed to have increased.
“how is it?”
Martha whetted her appetite while looking at Igieogeom’s book of martial arts.
“Do you think you can use a proper Iggyeo sword?”
She looked at me with sparkling eyes as if she was curious about the martial arts scholar named Igieogeom.
“okay. “It’s not that difficult.”
Raon calmly nodded as he took down the diploma.
“If I polish it well, I might be able to use it when you become a Grand Master.”
It seemed that if he reached transcendence and his achievement level for the Igigear Sword increased, he would be able to create an Igigeom Sword that even a Grand Master could use.
Of course, it is impossible to become a beginner and you have to be a Grand Master intermediate level or higher.
“really…?”
Runaan, who had been hitting the fire pit while looking at the bonfire, suddenly stood up.
“Can we really learn the Igi Gear Sword?”
“uh? Oh, maybe…”
“Wow!”
Runaan raised both arms and gave a small cheer. Considering her usual appearance, it was a very excessive reaction.
“I didn’t know you were that interested in Igieo sword.”
Raon smiled slightly as he watched Runan raise her hands one after another.
“What are you interested in?”
Marta shook her head as if absolutely not.
“You go around saying that it’s annoying and makes you sleepy. “It’s obvious that he wants to learn how to use a sword and ride a sword.”
She snorted, saying she could see everything.
“Oh, no way….”
“That’s right.”
Runaan nodded confidently, saying that Marta was right.
“I want to ride the sword to work, and I also want to take a nap on it.”
She said it would feel good to ride the sword and sleep under the sun, her cheeks turning red.
“you idiot! “If you sleep, the sword will fall off!”
Marta frowned, saying it was pathetic.
“…I can do it.”
Runaan lowered her eyebrows, saying she wouldn’t fall.
“I could never do that!”
“you can do it.”
Marta and Runaan fought in their sleep over whether or not they could use the Iggyeo sword and thrust their heads at each other like cattle.
“Ha…”
Raon sighed as he looked at Marta and Runan who started headbutting.
‘Why are you becoming more and more childish?’
Those two were polite when they were trainees, but they seemed to become more childish as they got older.
-Because we became friends.
Lars said it was a good thing and waved his hand to leave it alone.
‘As you?’
-What nonsense!
‘no.’
When Raon was laughing and trying to focus on the book again, Burren approached.
“Raon.”
“hmm?”
“What do you think of what the former Great Swordmaster said?”
Buren’s complexion darkened, as if he was still troubled by the fact that Sieghart and the Holy Sword Runner were related.
“It’s not unconditional, but I think there’s a possibility.”
Combining what he saw in his dream with the stories of Rektar and Darkhan, the ancestor of Sieghart who appeared in his dream is clearly related to the origins of the Holy Sword Training.
Although it was a certain situation for me, I couldn’t tell everything, so I only said that there was a possibility.
“I see…”
Buren pressed his lips down. Since he was more proud of Sieghart than anyone else, the fact that he was related to Ouma seemed like a shock.
“There is no need to be embarrassed or angry.”
Raon calmly shook his head.
“But the Seonggeomryeon is Oma! A lot has changed now that your grandfather has been here, but if you think about the previous Seonggeomryun, it was nothing but evil…”
“What were the people of the Seonggeomryun you saw when you came here like?”
“what?”
Burren widened his eyes as if wondering what he was talking about.
“Leaving aside Oma’s Holy Sword Training, what were the people of the Holy Sword Training that you personally saw like?”
Raon calmed Buren down and told him to think properly.
“…There were some rough people, but they were basically good and had a very strong passion for the sword.”
Burren chewed his lip, saying there was not much difference from Sieghardt’s prosecutors.
“Those people are Oma, now and in the past. But if they say it’s evil…”
“That’s not right.”
He sighed slightly and nodded.
“It is true that Seonggeomryeon has committed many evil deeds and is also called Oma.”
Raon lowered both hands and drew two lines on the ground.
“The connection between Sieghart and the Holy Sword Training that Darkhan mentioned is hundreds of years ago or more. At that time, Seonggeomryeon could have been good, and Sieghart could have been evil. “It may be the other way around in the future.”
The line on the right continued in a straight line, while the line on the left was twisted dizzyingly like a maze.
“We have seen firsthand what kind of person Derus Robert is. “This world changes depending on the way you look at it.”
Raon smiled slightly as he connected the lines that had drawn different trajectories.
“That’s right…”
Burren also nodded heavily, as if he understood what was being said.
“You have to look inside yourself, not the name or fame. “Whether it’s a person or a family.”
Raon nodded as he shared what he had realized through his past and present lives.
“sorry. “I guess I’m too obsessed with the name Oma.”
Buren let out a long sigh, saying he had been thinking wrong.
“are you okay. “At first, I thought you were an unlucky master.”
Raon grinned and patted Buren on the shoulder.
“Well, I was young back then…”
Buren blushed and chewed his lip as if he had nothing to say about his appearance as a trainee.
“I’m kidding.”
Raon waved his hand lightly.
‘I guess it was because of Karun that Burren focused on the name Sieghart.’
Buren still respects Karun, and Karun is very proud of Sieghart.
It was natural for a son to be influenced by his father, so it was understandable that he would develop such a personality.
-Now that I think about it, you didn’t care about name or reputation from the beginning.
Lars narrowed his eyes, saying it was not like a kid.
‘Something happened to me.’
Raon twisted his mouth as he remembered Derus from his previous life.
‘And that’s not just for the Burren.’
A good victim to take revenge on Derus. Since we must not create another Raon, it was also a promise to ourselves to look at the inside, not the outside.
“It’s done! “Eat it while you’re at it!”
Dorian prepared tea and distributed it to everyone.
Perhaps due to the power of the mind’s eye, the color of the tea given to each person was different.
“uh…?”
Raon narrowed his eyes as he looked at the thick liquid that looked like green tea.
“What’s this?”
This was my first time seeing tea of this color and I had a hard time drinking it.
“Oh, that’s tea made with mint chocolate!”
Dorian laughed, saying he made it because it seemed necessary.
“Mint chocolate?”
-Mint chocolate!
Runaan and Ras gathered in front of the teacup at the same time.
“Ugh…”
Runan lowered her eyebrows as if she didn’t like the steaming mint chocolate and immediately stepped back.
-Oh oh! The King’s wisdom worked!
However, Lars savored the food as if he had ordered it himself.
It seemed like he was aiming for this after dancing on top of his head earlier.
“It’s not really warm mint chocolate…”
-Shut up and eat!
Lars forced his mouth open to eat quickly.
“Ugh…”
Raon had no choice but to eat the mint chocolate, but spit it out before even eating half.
-This is new again!
Lars’ eyes were cloud-like, as if warm mint chocolate wasn’t bad enough.
‘I really don’t understand your taste… hmm?’
Raon wiped the mint chocolate off his tongue and turned around.
‘what?’
I felt someone’s gaze a little while ago, but when I turned around, there was no one there.
I stretched out the energy for a long time, but I couldn’t even detect an animal.
‘Las, was there anyone there?’
-What is there! Okay, drink more mint chocolate tea!
Lars’ eyes were already so engrossed in mint chocolate.
“….”
Raon watched Lass carefully and poured mint chocolate tea over the bonfire.
-Yaaaa!
Lars touched the bonfire with his chubby arms, but of course he couldn’t stop it.
-Yes, you will really go to heaven! Go and be a slave for life!
‘Obviously…’
Raon looked back again, ignoring Lars who was making a fuss.
‘I think there was something.’
* * *
Coo coo coo coo!
A huge tremor occurred throughout Sieghart, as if an earthquake had occurred.
“Oh, is it already 6 o’clock?”
“Let’s go get some food.”
“What was the side dish today?”
The Sieghardt prosecutors in the training hall quenched their appetite and headed to the restaurant as if it was no big deal, despite the strong shaking.
The same goes for the prosecutors standing on the street. We walked down the street chatting as if we didn’t feel the earthquake.
“Fuhahaha!”
Rimmer burst out laughing when he saw that.
“Because I drop my leg at the right time every day. Now it’s an alarm clock! Should we call it the Northern Extinction King’s Clock?”
He held his stomach and laughed as he looked at the restaurant that was starting to get crowded.
“It’s been two months, so I guess I’ve accepted it now.”
Do-gae also laughed as if this situation was absurd.
“But if you’re going to make such a fuss, you can just go and meet him in person.”
He mumbled that he didn’t understand and looked at the Sieghardt main building.
“I can’t go out because I don’t know when Oma will go on a rampage.”
Rimmer said that the collapse of the Sieghard Castle wall was a great shock and briefly took a bite.
“It’s not that I don’t understand, but it’s really unfortunate.”
“I don’t understand you.”
Dogoe looked at Rimmer and narrowed his eyes.
“me?”
Lamer pointed at himself with his finger as if asking what he was saying.
“okay.”
Dogoe took a step forward and looked into Rimmer’s eyes.
“You normally hang out like crazy, but didn’t you live harder than anyone else during the two months Raon was away?”
Originally, Rimmer did not care about his own training or the training of the Gwangpungdae.
However, while Raon was away, he concentrated not only on training at Gwangpungdae but also on his own training.
Even though I came to my senses, I had no idea that I would show a consistent performance for two months.
“I heard that if a person suddenly changes, he or she dies. Have you caught a fatal disease?”
Do-goe gave him a sharp look, telling him to speak the truth.
“I’m an elf, so human proverbs don’t work for me.”
Rimmer shrugged his shoulders, telling him to think as he pleased.
“He’s always unpredictable.”
Do-gae clicked his tongue as if he didn’t like it.
“You only care about other people and not me… huh?”
Rimmer pointed to Gajujeon, the source of the tremor, and then his eyes widened. Unlike usual, the earthquake stopped very quickly.
“what?”
He raised his eyebrows when he realized that Glenn’s legs had stopped shaking.
“Stopping time is early today?”
“Why would you do that?”
Rimmer grinned and raised his head.
“My handsome grandchild is coming back!”
He left the gym, saying that Raon was the only one who could stop his legs from shaking.
“The Great Lord is returning?”
“Has it already been two months?”
“It’s already been over two months.”
“Let’s go too! “I have to show a different side of myself!”
Gwangpungdae swordsmen also followed behind Rimer to welcome Raon and show him the results of his hard training.
When Rimmer and Gwangpungdae arrived in front of the main gate, the huge door opened and Raon, the three captains, and Dorian were seen entering.
“her?”
“Hoo.”
Dogoe and Rimmer exclaimed at the same time.
“What happened?”
The thief looked at Buren, Marta, Runaan, and Dorian in turn, and then wasted some hope.
“Everything has changed beyond recognition.”
He said with a smile on his face that he had become a completely different person.
“But, is that really Dorian?”
The swordsman raised his eyebrows as he looked at the skinny Dorian.
“I guess that’s right. He loses weight like that sometimes. “It’s a bit harsh this time, though.”
Rimmer also widened his eyes as if surprised by Dorian’s change.
“Not only your appearance, but your skills have also grown a lot. “It’s shocking, but…”
Rimer swallowed dryly as he looked into Raon’s quiet eyes.
“The change in our master seems to be the biggest.”
There is a big change in the force, but the energy in the eyes itself has changed.
A calm yet sharp energy wave. I felt like I was seeing a transcendent being far above me.
“I’m back.”
Raon came forward and bowed his head to Rimmer and Dogoe.
“okay. Good job!”
Dogoe nodded coolly as if he was satisfied with everyone’s growth.
“What did you do? “Did you just go and practice non-stop?”
Rimmer also patted Raon’s shoulder as if he was proud of him.
“Well, that’s right. I have a lot to tell you. But…”
Raon smiled and nodded, then his red eyes flashed.
“The guys in the back seem to be having an easy time.”
He smiled softly as if he would see you later and walked towards the main building.
“What? Did you just play? “Why is it like that!”
Martha twisted her mouth as she looked at the windshield.
“No, I trained. “It’s just that the level is quite low.”
Buren let out a shaky breath, saying he needed to give him proper training.
“I won’t be able to sleep anymore…”
Runan nodded as if she was serious and followed Raon.
“Everyone is dead!”
Even Dorian raised his small fist towards the windmill.
“Hmm…”
Rimmer swallowed while looking at Raon’s back. I trained him hard, but his growth was so bizarre that I couldn’t refute it.
“W-what is it…”
Crane grabbed his head, looking at the backs of Raon and the four others.
“What on earth happened that made me turn into Raon Sieghardt?”
* * *
Raon entered the throne room and stood in front of Glenn’s throne.
“Raon Sieghardt and 4 other members of the Gwangpungdae. “I returned after completing my training at Seonggeomryeon.”
He knelt down and bowed his head as he officially announced his return.
Burren, Marta, Runan, and Dorian behind him also bent their knees.
“Get up.”
“thank you.”
“Um, yeah… wow!”
Glenn looked at his face and suddenly let out a violent breath.
His expression was difficult to describe. It looked happy, it looked sad, it looked like a corpse that had stopped breathing.
No, all those expressions mixed together made a very strange face.
“Go, matriarch? “Are you okay?”
“Hey, it’s okay.”
Glenn shook his head, holding his left breast.
“Hmm! “It’s been a while so I’m a little embarrassed.”
He slowly took a breath and relaxed his distorted expression.
“You’ve come back with enough growth after being away for two months. “We all developed together.”
Glenn looked at everyone from Raon to Dorian and smiled deeply, as if satisfied.
“It doesn’t seem like anything out of the ordinary happened.”
“yes. “There are many things to report this time too.”
Raon nodded, summarizing the events that occurred at Seonggeomryeon.
“Tell me.”
“yes. Then…”
Raon told me everything, from various trainings to the special swordsmen in the Holy Sword Training and the return of the previous Holy Sword Training Master.
“That’s why we were able to achieve such growth. “Exploring the territory of the Ten Thousand Swords even wider is a greater benefit than the growth of military force.”
Glenn said it was a good change and growth and gave a small smile.
“…And Darkan was still alive. “He pulled out his eyes and learned the sword of the heart… It’s something worthy of him.”
He took a quick bite, as if he had expected Darkan’s return alive to some extent. I didn’t really feel like I was disappointed that I couldn’t finish it.
“Matriarch.”
Raon looked at Glenn and lowered his head.
“There is one thing I would like to ask you.”
“Tell me.”
Glenn lowered his hand as if he would give some kind of answer.
“Among Sieghardt’s ancestors, is there anyone like me who has blond hair and red eyes and uses the Iggyeo sword? ah! “I use the aura of fire, and its color is golden.”
Raon looked at Glenn, saying one by one the images of his ancestors that he had seen in his dreams.
“hmm!”
Glenn’s eyes widened in surprise, then he looked down thoughtfully.
“As you know, blonde hair and red eyes are not that rare in Sieghart. If you go through history, there are countless swordsmen. But there is only one who used the golden fire.”
His red eyes were bent with respect.
“The first head of Sieghart’s family. He alone brought out the golden flame.”
