The Reincarnated Assassin is a Genius Swordsman - Chapter 554
Episode 554
“…Is that your idea?”
Glenn frowned and lowered his burning gaze.
“Hmm….”
Raon swallowed dryly at the feeling of intimidation coming from Glenn.
‘Isn’t that true?’
Glenn always had a suffocating spirit, but today he did it even more.
A sharp wave of energy swirled around him, as if he would be struck by lightning if he said one wrong word.
‘I’d better say I did it.’
Sylvia told me to bring Glenn, but it seemed better not to say that because she might get hurt.
“That’s right.”
Raon proudly raised his gaze and said that he had thought for himself.
“What is Sylvia’s condition?”
Glenn did not respond to the dinner invitation but asked about Sylvia’s condition.
“The establishment of the artificial short circuit was successful. However, it will take quite some time to return to unmanned operation.”
“I guess so.”
He nodded as if he understood that it had to be that way. The harsh voice seemed to have calmed down a bit.
“Did you say we should have dinner together tomorrow?”
“That’s right.”
Raon let out a short breath and nodded.
“….”
Glenn said nothing more. Maybe it was because of my mood, but it felt like the throne was shaking.
-Why is that old man so expensive?
Lars frowned as if he didn’t like it.
-How dare you talk about a weakling who would be defeated for hundreds of thousands of sums!
‘It’s increased again…’
It went from thousands to tens of thousands, and now it’s hundreds of thousands.
In this case, it seemed like they were just trying to win because of their pride when they could just say they were similar.
-If that old man doesn’t come, it’s better because the King has more to eat! Just go back!
Lars punched Glenn in the air, telling him to get out quickly.
‘Please stay still.’
When Raon hit Lars with his shoulder, the sound of his fingers tapping the armrests of the throne was heard. The short, even beat stopped and Glenn rested his chin.
“good night. “I have something to say anyway, so let’s accept the invitation.”
As soon as Glenn made his decision, he sank back into the throne.
“It is an honour.”
Raon got down on one knee and bowed his head.
‘I never thought you’d accept…’
To be honest, I never thought Glenn would accept my invitation to a meal. I was a little embarrassed because I thought I would only take Perton Blanc.
‘But what do you have to say?’
When he suddenly said he had something to say, I felt strangely anxious. However, right now, there was no clue to predicting his thoughts.
Raon sighed briefly and put the Periton Blanc back in his subspace pocket and stood up.
“If it’s okay, would you two like to come?”
I extended my hand to Cheryl and Loen who were standing under the podium. I thought it would be more convenient to have two people assist Glenn closely.
“If you don’t have a mission, don’t go.”
“Hehehe. “I will do that.”
Cheryl and Roen nodded and said they would follow Glenn.
“Then let’s go.”
He greeted the three people one by one and left the throne room.
I was walking while thinking about what Glenn was saying. Suddenly, the family battle began to shake.
“hmm?”
Raon tilted his head, looking at the ceiling where small dust was falling.
“Earthquakes are frequent these days.”
* * *
Coo coo coo coo!
Glenn held his forehead in his hands and his legs were shaking.
As the transcendent man could not hold back his emotions and started shaking, not only the throne room but the entire House of Lords began to shake as if it would collapse.
“Hehehe.”
Roen looked up and saw small dust falling like snow from the ceiling.
“It’s been a while since I felt this vibration.”
He took out a broom and a mop from somewhere, saying he had to clean up the dust.
“thank god.”
Cheryl approached Glenn, who had his head down.
“I thought the head of the family had given up on approaching Raon and Sylvia, but Raon came to me at a truly surprising moment.”
She smiled softly as if she was reading Glenn’s thoughts.
“right.”
Glenn raised his head and obediently acknowledged Cheryl’s words.
“I was just trying to protect you from behind, but I didn’t even have the courage to refuse that kid’s invitation.”
He bit his lip, saying he couldn’t ignore Raon’s invitation.
However, the legs were still shaking. Joy and sadness seemed to coexist.
“I was invited, but I don’t plan on going and expecting more than that. I’ll just eat quietly and come back. “I think I can be satisfied with that.”
Glenn shook his head, saying he didn’t need anything more than that.
“Aww, it’s frustrating!”
Cheryl closed her eyes tightly and patted her chest.
“Please come to your senses!”
“…what?”
“Did you ask Silvia and Raon to watch from behind? I’m just saying that I’m grateful for what the matriarch has done for me and that I’m going to treat her to a meal! “Why are you writing a tragic novel alone?”
She frowned and continued.
“What the head of the family did to Sylvia is something that is difficult for a father to forgive. However, the Raon and Sylvia I know are not children who will be tied down by the past. “I’m sure you will act wisely!”
“Know. Those kids aren’t like that. But even if others forgive, I cannot forgive myself.”
Glenn clenched his fists, saying that his thoughts would never change.
“So, I need to get closer and be nice to both of them. “At the very least, we must do as much as we have done for other successors.”
“So from behind…”
“Raon came first! Then go and meet me!”
Cheryl couldn’t stand it anymore and raised her voice. It was the first bitter comment from a woman who respected Glenn more than anyone else.
“I’m not saying you have to do it all at once. You can move forward very slowly. “It’s better than nothing.”
“Hmm…”
When Cheryl came out strong, Glenn looked at Roen as if asking for help.
“Hehehe.”
Roen smiled kindly and looked away.
“Where was the trash can…”
He quietly disappeared, as if he had no intention of stopping Cheryl.
“Matriarch!”
“That’s right…”
“Go to the annex tomorrow and give Raon and Sylvia a well-wishes. must!”
Cheryl said there was no rejection and raised her head with her arms crossed.
“Matriarch?”
Cheryl glared fiercely into Glenn’s eyes as if asking him to answer.
“Whoa…”
Glenn looked at Sheryl and nodded as if he had no choice.
“Try.”
* * *
The next evening.
Sylvia and the maids were standing in front of the entrance.
“Ugh…”
Helen seemed anxious even after cleaning all day, so she walked around and constantly mopped and swept the floor.
“You can roughly do it.”
Rimmer, who arrived first, leaned his back against the wall and nodded.
“Anyway, the head of the family doesn’t really care about cleaning. “He comes to my office sometimes, but he doesn’t say anything.”
He waved his finger, telling me to stop working.
“It’s not that I don’t care, I just gave up on your filth.”
Dogoe frowned at Rimmer, telling him to stop talking nonsense.
“Ah, old man. I don’t know. “The only person our matriarch trusts is me.”
“I guess you’re the only one who beats me with excitement instead of trust.”
As Raon was laughing while watching the two people wrestle, he felt a heavy energy approaching the front door.
“Hmm….”
“You’re here.”
Rimmer and Dokai seemed to have sensed the energy as well and stopped talking and straightened their postures.
“You are coming.”
At Raon’s warning, Sylvia and the maids straightened their backs.
Tiek.
When the clock struck exactly seven o’clock, there was a knock on the front door.
“Whew…”
Sylvia slowly exhaled and opened the front door, and Roen bowed his head.
“thank you for the invitation.”
As he moved to the side, Glenn came in with his brilliant blonde hair neatly slicked back.
“Meet the matriarch!”
“Meet the matriarch!”
Following Sylvia’s greeting, everyone in the annex bowed their heads to Glenn.
“That was enough to say hello.”
Glenn waved his hand to stop those who were about to kneel. He looked at Sylvia for a moment as if checking her condition, then nodded.
“The Danjeon has been properly installed.”
“Thanks to the matriarch.”
Sylvia smiled calmly as she lifted Glenn up.
“I didn’t do anything.”
Glenn shook his head in a gruff voice. He nodded briefly as he looked at Encia standing with the maids.
“You have accomplished a great feat in producing an artificial danjeon. “The head of the Yonan family would be proud.”
“I just modeled it after seeing the prototype of the artificial danjeon that Raon saved. But…”
Encia stuttered, probably nervous, and then blinked her eyes blankly.
“I feel this every time I see you, but the head of the family is truly honorable. “The old man is crazy…”
Her sudden stupid remark made everyone in the entrance gape.
“I was wondering why Raon was so handsome, and it turned out that it was because my grandfather was handsome. After all, you can’t fool blood…”
“Eh Encia!”
Raon walked up to Encia and covered her mouth.
“….”
Glenn looked down at Encia with an indescribable gaze. His eyes began to tremble slightly.
‘You must have been angry.’
When the word ‘grandfather’ came out, it was clear that my stomach would turn. While I was wondering what to do, Rimmer came forward.
“How long will I stand here? “Let’s go in, shall we?”
He said his leg hurt and he pounded his thigh with his fist.
“Please come this way.”
Sylvia did not miss the opportunity and raised her hand to point to the restaurant.
“….”
Glenn followed Sylvia without even nodding, while Cheryl and Roen smiled and waved.
When we entered the restaurant, Glenn sat at the head of the table and Sylvia took the seat to his left. She pointed to the seat opposite, as if telling me to come quickly and sit down.
‘Whew…’
Raon sighed inwardly and sat across from Sylvia and next to Glenn.
The three people didn’t say anything for a long time.
“What is this?”
As the suffocating silence continued, Rimmer frowned.
“Who died? Why is everyone keeping quiet? “Wasn’t today a celebration party?”
“It’s definitely too quiet.”
Dogoe nodded as if agreeing with Rimmer’s words.
“Hehehe. “Isn’t this just the beginning?”
Roen smiled kindly and told him to wait.
“Hmm…”
When Sylvia finished her appetite, the maids waiting in the kitchen entered the kitchen with dishes.
It seemed as though they had just been completed, and warm steam was rising from all of them. The scent and color were so vibrant that I was drooling just looking at them.
-Hehehe….
Lars looked at the food one by one, drool flowing from his mouth.
-Meat stew, roasted whole pig, fried chicken, beef ribs and lamb ribs… Huh? That’s salmon! It can be both grilled and raw!
The guy gaped at the salmon dish Yua brought.
‘You said you wanted to eat it, so I asked for it.’
While Lars was sleeping in his bracelet, he asked Dorian to get ingredients and cook Yua.
-Ugh!
Lars flew at the toddler and hit his head.
-After all, the pineapple girl is the only one for this king!
‘I asked for it?’
-Pineapple girl!
‘….’
He only praised Yua. This is why I don’t think you should be nice to Hogu.
While Raon was arguing with Lars, the spacious rectangular table was filled with food. Even though they were nervous, everyone at the table was appetizing.
“That’s awesome. First, let’s start with the beef ribs…”
“Stay still!”
“Oops!”
While Rimmer was picking up a fork, Cheryl hit him on the back of the hand and he backed away.
“thank you.”
Sylvia smiled at Cheryl and stood up. She looked at everyone here, from the maid at the end to Glenn at the head table, then parted her lips.
“Thanks to the people here, I was able to get on the unmanned path again.”
The people sitting at the table looked at Sylvia with different meanings and eyes.
“Thank you very much. I never thought I would feel this happiness again. “I will do my best to become a warrior who will not be ashamed that you all helped me.”
Sylvia placed her hand on her chest and carefully lowered her head.
“I’m looking forward to it.”
“It will happen.”
“congratulations!”
Cheryl applauded first, and the others also cheered and applauded.
“….”
Glenn didn’t say anything or do anything, just folded his arms and stayed still.
“Then, let’s eat before the food gets cold.”
Sylvia was not embarrassed when she saw Glenn like that, but smiled and motioned for him to take some food.
“Oh, I heard that Raon prepared alcohol before that. How about a drink everyone?”
She gave Raon a glance.
“All right.”
Raon nodded, got up and took out the Periton Blanc that he had prepared in advance.
“hey! There are a lot of meat dishes, so what’s the point of white wine? I only know how to use a knife. “This little guy doesn’t know how to drink… Wow!”
Rimmer mumbled asking if he had any more drinks, but Cheryl hit him in the back and he fell down.
“If you open your mouth again, you will die.”
Cheryl smiled at Raon as if telling him to hurry up.
“Hmm…”
Raon let out a low groan and approached Glenn.
“Would you like to eat it?”
“…okay.”
Glenn uncrossed his arms and raised his glass as if to pour it out.
Laon exerted desperate concentration as if facing an enemy, and poured Peryton Blanc into Glenn’s glass as carefully as possible.
When I got halfway to the glass, I stopped and lowered my head.
“Hmm…”
Glenn seemed to brighten up a little, perhaps because he had the drink he wanted to drink right in front of him.
‘It seems you like it.’
Raon heaved a sigh of relief, poured alcohol into Sylvia’s glass, and then approached Rimmer and Dogoe.
I was trying to fill both people’s glasses with alcohol, but the reactions were strange. They were looking towards Glenn and frowning.
“hmm?”
I thought it was strange and looked back to see Glenn raising his wine glass towards Rimmer and Dogoe.
I’m not sure why, but it seemed like he was laughing at me.
‘what?’
All three of them were silent, so they didn’t really understand what was going on.
Raon tilted his head, filled Cheryl and Roen’s glasses with alcohol, and returned to their seats.
“Then shall we have a toast?”
Sylvia raised her glass. Everyone else raised their glasses together, but Glenn stayed still.
“There should be a toast to say what you wish for.”
Cheryl gave Sylvia a glance with a light smile.
“Then, for Raon’s happiness!”
“Wasn’t it your own celebration party?”
“anyway.”
Rimer and Dokke sighed and raised their glasses as if there was nothing they could do. Cheryl Loen also smiled and raised her glass.
Glenn, who seemed uninterested in the toast, also quietly raised his glass. Since it was a nice day, it seemed like they were setting the mood.
Glasses clinked in the air and everyone moistened their mouths with peryton boulang.
“hmm? “It’s pretty good, isn’t it?”
“The advantage of white wine is that it is cool and refreshing, but Perton Blanc has the rich taste of red wine. “It couldn’t be any less delicious.”
Do-gae emptied all the alcohol in one mouthful and filled his own glass.
“Then enjoy it.”
Sylvia spread her hands to start eating.
– King Bon wants to eat salmon first!
Lars frowned at the taste of alcohol and pointed at the salmon with a round finger.
-Raw salmon, not grilled salmon! no! First, raw salmon!
‘Are you asking me to feed the pineapple girl?’
Raon ignored those words and ate the stew first.
-hey!
Unlike himself fighting Lars, dinner went quietly.
From time to time, Rimmer would tell a joke, which would be picked up by Dogoe and Cheryl, but Glenn would not say anything, so it was no exaggeration to say that it was a time of silence.
“Would you like me to pour you some more?”
Raon looked at Glenn’s empty wine glass and brought him Peryton Blanc.
“okay.”
Glenn nodded briefly and raised his glass. Glenn’s hand seemed to shake a little as he poured the drink into the glass.
Although he is a transcendental like Ras, I thought he might be weak to alcohol.
While eating, I kept pouring drinks when Glenn’s glass was empty, and before I knew it, all of the Periton Blanc I had received from Dorian was empty.
-Whoosh!
Lars took a long burp and lay down on his stomach.
– King Bobon is satisfied today!
After saying that, the guy fell asleep. He was truly a beast-like devil who lived according to his instincts.
“Sylvia.”
Glenn also wiped his mouth with a napkin and then turned his attention to Sylvia.
“yes?”
“What do you plan to do next?”
Glenn asked the same question I asked Sylvia a while ago.
“I plan to stay here.”
“Are you saying you won’t pick up the sword again?”
“no. I have to catch it. I will catch it. However, rather than going out and exalting the family name, I am trying to protect my people within here.”
Sylvia recited the same answer she had given me.
“Raon said he will promote you to the direct line next year. “I said I would catch my father and use all the achievements I have accumulated so far.”
Glenn poured the last of the Peryton Blanc into his glass and narrowed his gaze.
“I decided to accept that offer too.”
“Ah…”
“If you can achieve that, please return to the main building.”
Glenn looked from Sylvia to Raon and nodded.
“Matriarch…”
Sylvia’s lips trembled as if she didn’t know she was going to tell Glenn to come back to the main house.
Her red eyes twinkled like a sunset reflected in the sea.
“It was a meal well worth the time.”
Glenn gave his own high praise and stood up from his chair.
“I ate well.”
“All the food was excellent.”
“I heard this house is good.”
“It was a good meal.”
Cheryl and Roen Rimer also followed Glenn to their feet.
Glenn bowed his head, Sylvia and Raon took turns leaving the annex, and the others followed.
“Haa…”
Sylvia covered her face with both hands and took a deep breath. As I saw her shoulders shaking slightly, it seemed like she was holding back tears.
Raon held Sylvia’s shoulder and bit her lip.
‘Of course.’
When Glenn told me to come back to the main building now, he meant that he would think of Sylvia as his daughter again.
When I heard those words directly, the things I had been holding in until now came rushing back to me and I couldn’t control my emotions.
Raon patted Sylvia’s back for a while on the spot.
* * *
“You finally said something.”
Rimmer looked at Glenn’s back and whistled.
“Actually, what I was hoping for was a little warmer words, but that’s enough for now… hmm?”
He stopped talking and opened his eyes wide. When Glenn looked back, the corner of his mouth was showing a sneer.
“uh? What is it? “What about that angry expression?”
“They’re sending it to me too.”
The thieves also frowned as if they saw Glenn’s expression.
“Heh.”
Glenn laughed at Rimmer and Dogoe at the same time, as if they had not seen anything wrong, and turned his head without hesitation.
“Now wait a minute! “Are you saying that Raon poured me a drink first today?”
“no way…?”
Rimer and Dogoe opened their mouths as if they were dumbfounded.
“It’s not just that. This is the 10th time Raon poured alcohol into my glass today. “You each drank accordingly.”
Glenn looked back again and snorted.
“No, that’s because you’re sitting next to me!”
“What’s wrong with pouring me a drink?”
“Defeated dogs bark.”
He waved his hand, referring to Rimmer and Dokai as having ten thousand tails.
“Hey, me!”
Cheryl stopped Rimmer as he ground his teeth.
“We finally made some progress today. “You hold back.”
Cheryl shook her head and said leave it for today.
But Glenn seemed to have no intention of holding back and this time he sneered with his eyes.
“How can you resist looking at that expression! I’m pissed! “Raon and I are closer…keeeek!”
Rimmer screamed and rushed at Glenn, but was struck by lightning and fell.
“Why are you still?”
He looked up at the unmoving figure and his chin trembled.
“I don’t want to be hit at this age.”
Do-gae muttered that he was an idiot and clicked his tongue.
“Hehehe.”
Roen followed after everyone, laughing hollowly as if the situation itself was enjoyable.
