The Reincarnated Assassin is a Genius Swordsman - Chapter 370
Chapter 370
Raon made eye contact with Addis Sepia, who had sunk in dryness, and lowered his lips slightly.
‘Is it because of this?’
The exact opposite of what Lars said. Addis seemed to have been called into the office not to be angry, but rather to give her more strength.
However, it didn’t seem like he was trying to help unconditionally.
“What does it mean to invest in me?”
“It literally means that a man named Raon Sieghart is ready to spend his money where he wants.”
Addis did not hesitate and gave the answer right away, as if he had prepared it in advance.
-why not! Aren’t there many other places to invest? This guy is a money eater!
‘Noisy.’
Raon brushed off Lars like chasing a fly and looked at Addis.
“May I ask why?”
“It is natural as a merchant to want to invest in the person who will become the best person on the continent in the future.”
“I don’t think that’s the only reason.”
Addis should have welcomed him from the beginning if he really only considered force, but he didn’t show a friendly look.
It was clear that there was another reason.
“You really don’t look like your age. That’s right. There are other reasons.”
“Some…”
“Because you are the one who can change people.”
“Did you say change?”
“exactly. There are many strong people on the continent, many geniuses, and even more rich people. Everywhere you go, there are plenty of well-known people, but among them, there are not many people who can naturally change others.”
Addis tapped the table with her fingers as a habit and continued.
“Dorian has changed into a man fit for an heir just by following you around, and has raised Nakhwado again, which contains the sarcastic meaning of a fallen sword. It’s not something everyone can do.”
“I had my intentions when I was growing Dorian, but I just happened to get Nakhwa Island.”
“No one else has been able to do that accidental stumbling for decades.”
Mark Goetton became a master at a young age and was considered a star to brighten Warner Kingdom, but eventually he was eaten by himself and became a mercenary with the stigma of Nakhwa Island.
Even if his skills didn’t improve, there were many people who tried to get him because he was a master, but no one was able to open his heart.
‘But…’
The man in front of me was different.
Raon simply swung his sword honestly without thinking about gaining or awakening the fallen tree, but that resonated with the heart of a loser who hadn’t even looked at the wall for a long time.
It’s something you can’t do without knowing. This was possible only for those who had values other than military talent.
“For the mind to move, there must be action. You are the kind of person who can do that to others as well as to yourself. That’s why I said I wanted to invest.”
“I see…”
Raon nodded heavily.
‘He’s a scary person.’
I didn’t mean to invest in me because I had superior strength or developed Dorian.
Addis, the upper part of Sepia, said he would invest in Raon Sieghart because he knew what kind of person he was.
“I want to ask you something.”
Addis stopped tapping her fingers on the table.
“Tell me.”
“Are you thinking of becoming Sieghart’s family head?”
I was speechless at his terse question.
I thought about it before
‘Go .
‘Because it wasn’t my goal.’
The most important goal he set in his second life is to reveal the identity of Derus Robert and annihilate him.
Even if death comes again, that much must be achieved.
‘It would be comfortable to become the head of household.’
If he became the head of the household and kept Derus in check, he might be able to achieve that goal more easily.
‘But…’
A huge number of lives will disappear.
In the event of a family-to-family battle, not individual to individual, countless innocent people would fall.
To take revenge on Derus Robert, you cannot become the same human being as Derus Robert. Even though it would be a difficult and lonely fight, I didn’t want to see unnecessary sacrifices.
‘The second goal won’t mean much either.’
It would be possible to raise Sylvia to the direct line if she became the head of the family, but it would be faster to restore Sylvia to the line than to make achievements worthy of becoming the head of the family.
In other words, it was not necessary for this goal either.
‘Going is not my goal. It’s just…’
Unlike before, I wanted to be with the people of the family a little more, and I wanted to build a bigger and higher family.
‘I don’t know my heart either.’
I couldn’t give a proper answer to Addis’ question because I didn’t want to become a family head.
‘Perhaps there will be no help.’
Addis is a merchant. The fact that he reached out a helping hand clearly meant that he was willing to pay for it.
However, that would be after he became the head of household, so if he hears his answer, he will cancel the investment proposal.
‘Still, it’s comfortable to tell the truth.’
Addis is the father of a colleague and the owner of an incomprehensible target society. There was no point in fooling around.
-Really…
Lars frowned at Raon.
-Your personality is unpredictable. Yesterday he was a bully himself, but today he’s like a wise man. He’s really crazy
‘I don’t know myself well either.’
Raon took a deep breath and looked up at Addis.
“I do not know.”
“I don’t know?”
“yes. Regardless of whether or not I can become a family head, I still don’t know what I can do as a family head. That’s why I can’t answer the question of whether I will become the family head now.”
“Umm…”
Addis groaned and furrowed her eyes.
“I don’t understand. You must have known that saying “I don’t know” is not a good answer, but why did you answer like that? Wouldn’t it be nice to say that you would become the head of the household, even if it was a lie?”
“you’re right. That would have been nice.”
Raon smiled lightly and nodded.
“Just when I was about to lie, I remembered what the merchant said.”
“Some…”
“Even if you take stolen items to the customer, you shouldn’t put defective products on them.”
Addis’s jaw dropped when he brought up the words he had spoken to Jesser at the gymnasium.
“I’m not a merchant, but it’s like a product that’s here. I didn’t want to make a deal with the merchant with a product full of lies.”
“Kuh…”
Addis stopped tapping her hand on the table. A long smile escaped from him as his shoulders trembled.
“Ha ha ha ha ha!”
Addis let out a cool laugh while letting go of her usual cold-heartedness and firmness.
“I guess I know now. okay. It was.”
He looked this way with excited eyes. Unlike before, it was a look of affectionate eyes that gave a similar feeling to Dorian.
“I must have said it at the beginning. I am confident in my eyes.”
“You said so.”
“I guess my eyes look old.”
“yes?”
“I didn’t know that a man named Raon Sieghart could be like this.”
Addis smiled. This was what he really looked like.
“Are the words you told me to stop talking about because you are the father of a colleague still valid?”
“That’s right.”
“I accept it.”
He smiled even wider and leaned back in his chair.
“After hearing your answer, my thoughts have become stronger. Sepia Corporation will invest in Raon Sieghart.”
Addis held out her hand with a refreshing expression.
“I will follow the road wherever it goes. Say whatever you want.”
– Heo-eok!
Lars, who had been quiet until now, jumped up.
-I shouldn’t have said that! that stupid!
‘Look out of the way.’
Raon brushed the trembling wad of cotton with the back of his hand and pushed his upper body forward.
“What I want now is Sieghart’s expansion.”
“expansion?”
“yes. Sieghart is the most closed of all the Yukhwang because it is embedded in the northern end.”
“surely. Before hearing the King of the North’s departure and the results of the sparring in Owen’s kingdom, people thought it was the end of the Six Emperors.”
Addis nodded in agreement.
“It’s all because of the location. So I want to expand the infrastructure and road network there.”
This is something I’ve been thinking about before. In order to grow Sieghart, both people and money were needed, so the power of a giant company was needed.
“I see what that means.”
Addis seemed to have grasped the meaning at once, befitting an upper house owner.
“It will take a lot of money, time and manpower.”
“But there will be a greater reward than that. The head of the family is a person who is sure of his personal identity. There are many places to try to hold Sieghart’s hand right now, but nothing has been confirmed.”
“Then I must move first.”
He nodded, saying he would come up with a quick plan.
“Okay, and next to Gwangpungdan…”
“Next?”
At the word next, Addis’s eyes doubled.
“You told me to tell you what you want.”
“I did, but I didn’t expect it to happen again…”
Addis, feeling something strange now, trembled her lips.
“There is still a long way to go.”
Raon raised his chin slightly and let out a delightful smile.
“Because it starts now. Please listen carefully.”
After a while Addis came to regret his decision.
* * *
Sieghard’s throne room.
As lofty as the top of Mt. Bukmang, and where cool air swells, young children rushed into the place. The children watched the audience room with blind eyes and wiggled their fingers.
“Whoa.”
Glenn Sieghart shot a fierce glance at Federick, the Rag Saint, who stood at the head of the awkwardly standing children.
“What are all these kids up to?”
“I told Rimer, did you not hear?”
“I’ve heard of it, but never said there were so many.”
“They told me the numbers too.”
Fedric pointed at Rimmer, who grinned at the children.
“Rimer.”
“omg!”
At Glenn’s shrill voice, Rimmer’s shoulders trembled.
“I forgot.”
Rimer laughed and scratched the back of his head.
“…”
As Glenn glared at Rimer as if to kill him, bone-chilling chill filled the audience room.
“Ugh…”
“Ah…”
“Why is it so cold all of a sudden?”
The children were trembling all over, even though they were wearing thick fur clothes.
“Glen. Don’t you have children?”
“Umm…”
At Fedric’s call, Glenn frowned and withdrew all his momentum. Rather, it seemed to have caused heat, and warmth bloomed as if a warm wind was blowing into the audience room.
“Wow, isn’t that too much? You have kids, but you’re showing off momentum?”
Rimer approached Rowen before he knew it and looked at Glenn.
“Heh heh heh.”
Loen put her hands behind her back and smiled kindly as if the children were cute.
“I could be saying the numbers wrong. He wants to kill people with it and has a really weird personality.”
“Heh heh heh.”
Rimmer continued to gossip about Glenn regardless of whether Loen answered or not.
“Ouch…”
Glenn groaned and looked at the children.
“These kids were brainwashed?”
“Yes.”
Federick nodded, looking back at the children whose eyes were twinkling in terror.
Glenn looked at the children one by one. The children under the eyes of the children, who still had to be protected by adults, were scorched. It was not a bright impression, but it was like seeing an adult who was tired of life.
“Why did you bring me here?”
“Using the coldness of this place, we can erase the brainwashing and bad memories that still remain.”
“hmm.”
Glenn spread his senses and checked not only the outside of the children, but also the inside. Perhaps because of the brainwashing, the energy inside the body was flaccid, and the damage to the mana circuit was severe.
Looking at those children reminded me of Raon, who was cursed with the cold when he was young. Thinking back then, I couldn’t refuse.
“Can you fix it?”
“These children can be cured.”
Federick gave an ambiguous answer and smiled awkwardly.
“Then…”
“You’re not trying to send back the children who came to this cold place, right?”
As Glenn was about to nod to Federick, Rimmer’s voice came.
“Raon does a good job, so he’s getting a lot of money these days, but it’s not like there isn’t bread to feed them.”
“Heh heh heh.”
“It is something that humans cannot do. Isn’t it?”
“Heh heh heh.”
“Don’t be hahaha, please join us! If this is the case, I’m the only one who died!”
Rimer shouted loudly, but Loen still let out a benevolent laugh.
“I accept it.”
Glenn nodded to Federick.
“Send those children to the mansion near the annex.”
The warmest place in this family is the annex where Sylvia is. In order to treat those children, it would be better to place them close to the annex.
“Thank you. After all, I made good friends.”
Federik laughed and lowered his head before opening the door to the audience room.
“Then let’s go.”
At his gesture, the children left the audience room one by one.
“Fedric.”
Glenn stopped Fedrick, who was about to leave for the last time.
“Have you ever asked Raon to smile in front of me before?”
“Oh, it was. how is it? Did you like it?”
Federick turned around and grinned.
“…”
Glenn bit his lip, not answering. The corners of his lips vibrated like windblown leaves.
“Ha ha ha! also.”
Federic left the audience room with a hearty laugh, saying that he would come back in the evening, so let’s have a drink.
“Loen. Let’s prepare a lot of snacks. Anything that beggar likes.”
“All right.”
Rowen smiled and nodded.
“And…”
“Uh uh uh!”
At Glenn’s gesture, Rimer’s body, which was about to follow Federik, floated to the surface.
Quaang!
Loen didn’t miss the chance and closed the door to the audience room.
“Roen-nim?”
“Heh heh heh.”
“Ooh don’t laugh, why did you close the door!”
“I made it.”
I turned around at the cold voice. Glenn, who was buried in the throne, stood up and snapped his fingers.
Kwaji support!
Red thunderbolts spread like spider webs in the air, filling the ceiling of the audience room.
Kurrureung!
Rimer’s chin trembled as he caught the red lightning that was pouring down into his eyes.
“Again? Aaaaagh!”
Rowen’s laughter rippled in the air along with the rain of lightning.
“Heh heh heh.”
* * *
Even though Raon had everything to get, he didn’t leave Sepia for two weeks.
Standing at the top of the stone mountain, he looked up at the stars that filled the night sky and lowered his gaze.
“Kuaaaaa!”
Mark Goetton screamed and climbed the rock face. It was a slow pace that did not seem like a master, but one step at a time, he moved towards the top.
“Eh heh heh…”
Dorian was floundering next to Mark Goetton, tongue sticking out like a dog. His eyes were open, but he was very strong, so the speed itself was not bad.
‘They’ve both gotten pretty good.’
The mana circuit was completely blocked, so they had to climb the rock wall only with the strength of their bodies, but after two weeks, their bodies grew and they both rode the mountain faster and more concisely than before.
Even today, I am climbing this rock wall for the 7th time, and the speed is much faster than the first time I climbed the mountain.
-It’s not talented and clumsy, but it’s definitely moving one step at a time.
Ras said it wasn’t bad and raised his mouth slightly.
-This isn’t bad either.
‘okay. It’s getting better.’
Dorian is also growing, but it is Mark Goeten who has changed a lot. He did not have a set number, but recovered his damaged body by riding this rock wall all day long.
“Then would you like some help?”
Raon smiled lightly and gently rubbed the rock at the top.
-You can’t…
‘That’s right.’
He grinned and hit the rock with his fist.
Wow!
Unexpectedly, the title of King of Destruction had been activated, and the rocks split apart, and stones fell on Dorian and Mark Goetton’s heads.
“Huh!”
“Aaaaaaagh!”
Mark Goetton and Dorian screamed and ducked. The two of them moved busily, observing the movement of the rock and avoiding it here and there. The will to survive overflowed in his eyes.
“You dodge well.”
Raon dropped rocks where Mark Goetton and Dorian would run away to keep them thinking and moving.
‘Is this fun?’
I’ll have to go back and do it with the Gwangpungdan.
The training of dropping rocks during rock climbing also develops eye technique, anticipation, and agility. It was the best training ever.
– Freeze the best training to die! Just burn the wagon to the underworld!
* * *
Due to Raon’s continued interruption, Dorian and Mark Goeten were able to climb to the top of Stone Mountain only after the moon rose in the center of the sky.
“Hee hee hee hee!”
“Whoa!”
Dorian was sprawling, drooling, and Mark Goetton was on his knees gasping.
“Good job.”
Raon smiled at Mark Goetton, who did not collapse even when he was exhausted.
‘It’s really changed.’
According to Mark Goeton’s rumors about falling flowers, this kind of training should have been completed in one day. Originally, he wasn’t a very patient person, and his personality must have been further ruined while serving as a mercenary.
However, Mark Goetton climbed this stony mountain from morning to night without missing a single day for two weeks.
Because of his wholehearted effort, his body had changed to such an extent that it made me think that a person had changed.
The flab from drinking and snacking was lost, and the hard muscles grew, making it a body that anyone could say was unmanned.
-It is a change that can be felt.
‘It feels like holding on to the last rope.’
Mark Goetton was trying with all his might to seize the new opportunity that came his way.
Addis Sanghoju also said it, and I can know it because I have seen it myself for two weeks. When Mark Goetton said he wanted to follow, he meant it.
‘But…’
There was one part that took me.
Raon stepped in front of the kneeling Mark Goetton.
“Mark Goetton.”
“yes!”
Mark Goetton gasped for breath, but answered so loudly that the mountain shook.
“Did you say you would follow me? Are your thoughts still the same?”
“That’s right!”
“Even if I can’t raise your level?”
The reason why Mark Goetton’s status has stopped is not simply because of martial arts and aura.
Perhaps a psychological problem. If you train like a gwangpungdan, you have a chance to rise, but you can’t say it’s unconditional. I had to know his opinion for sure.
“…”
Mark Goeten didn’t answer right away for the first time and lowered his shaking eyes.
When he opened his eyes again after a while, his pupils were deeply sunken, as they were during training.
“It doesn’t matter.”
“Is that true?”
“I am satisfied just to be able to dream again. Of course, it’s true that I’m looking forward to it, but I don’t think I’ll despair like before, even if I’m blocked by a wall.”
the wall of the realm.
When I first saw the wall, I was satisfied, when I saw it 5 years later, I was annoyed, and when I saw it 10 years later, I was in despair. After that, I never faced that wall because I was afraid.
I strengthened my mind while waiting for Raon for a month, and trained my body for two weeks without knowing this mountain. If it were now, I wouldn’t be afraid to look at the wall again.
Raon nodded, looking into Mark Goeton’s serious eyes.
‘It’s definitely changed.’
It seemed that the mercenary, Mark Goetton, who despaired of his own skills, had turned into the knight, Mark Goetton, who had found a spark of hope.
“Dorian.”
“uh? yes!”
Dorian panted and pulled himself up.
“How did you see it?”
Dorian was the person closest to Mark Goetton during the two weeks, so his opinion mattered.
“Mmmmm…”
Dorian smiled as she looked over at Mark Goeton.
“He is a good uncle. He gave me tips and above all, work hard. I think it would be nice to go with you.”
He added that if you look from below, you can see that they are going up with all their might.
“is it.”
Raon nodded. Seen from above, as Dorian was seen from below, Mark Goeten was always sincere.
‘I have to take him.’
– Then, what are you going to do if it’s even for three days?
When I finished making up my mind, Lars suddenly intervened.
‘Then I just have to make a decision every three days.’
-uh?
‘I just need to wake up every three days.’
-how?
‘With a fist. Or you can do it with a knife. Originally, when you don’t listen, the hawk is not enough.’
-What kind of guy said something crazy like that!
‘I.’
-Billion….
Raon held out his hand to Mark Goeten, leaving Lars with his mouth wide open.
“Let’s go together.”
“Ah…”
Mark Goetton stared blankly at Raon’s hands before trying to wipe them by rubbing his grungy hands on his pants.
“Because it’s that kind of hand, it’s worth holding.”
“Thank you.”
Raon held Mark Goeton’s hand, which was covered in dirt. Mark Goetton bit his lip and bowed his head.
“Good for you! You’re also in a frenzy…”
“Dorian.”
Raon stopped Dorian from approaching Mark Goetton.
“If you can afford to look after others under you, does that mean this training was light?”
“yes? Oh no never! Absolutely not! Because the Vice Lord told me to watch…”
“I understood it well. I will refer to it for the next training.”
“Oh, the devil. That person is a real devil!”
He sat down and laughed as he watched Dorian hit the ground.
‘Now it’s time to go back.’
Now that you’ve got everything you need here, it’s time to go back to your family.
I was worried that Rimer hadn’t had an accident and that the other members were training properly.
“Go back…”
As Raon gestured to Mark Goetton and Dorian, a message came up in front of his eyes.
[The Soul Sword has absorbed all the mana of darkness.]
[A new attribute is created.]
