The Reincarnated Assassin is a Genius Swordsman - Chapter 610
Episode 610
“…Bell?”
The moment Judiel continued speaking thinly, the dagger pointed at her forehead suddenly bent.
The bent dagger cut Hood’s right side. Through the crack, blood was seen flowing from Judiel’s cheek. But she didn’t even notice the cut on her cheek and just looked at Jubel.
‘It’s Jubel. ‘That’s my sister.’
You can tell just by looking at it. The man in front of me now was my only younger brother, Jubel.
“Who are you.”
Jubel pointed a dagger at Judiel’s neck and flashed creepy eyes.
“How can you name that…”
As he was about to bring the dagger closer, Judiel took off the hood he was wearing on his head.
Kyaaaang.
The moment her face was revealed, Jubel dropped the dagger he was holding.
“Which sister…?”
Just like Judiel, Jubel also recognized his only blood relative the moment he saw his face and clashed his upper and lower teeth.
“Are you my sister?”
“Jubel.”
Judiel hugged Jubel while chewing his lips. I didn’t care what the situation was or what Jubel was trying to do. The emotions I had been suppressing for a long time burst out and I couldn’t control myself.
“Jubel. Jubel.”
He chanted his younger brother’s name and strengthened his grip holding Jubel. Don’t miss him again.
“Ugh…”
Jubel closed his eyes as he rubbed Judiel’s back with a trembling hand.
‘It’s my sister’s scent…’
It’s a scent that I could smell only when I was sleeping in my sister’s arms when I was young.
It is not the scent of fragrant flowers, sweet fruits, or elegant grass.
The warm scent of a blanket that has been dried well in the sun. Tears streamed down my face without me realizing it because of that sweet scent that I thought I would never smell again.
‘He was really alive.’
I heard from the Great Lord that Judiel was alive, but I didn’t believe it. Still, I held on until now, just in case, but I never imagined that we would meet in a place like this.
I wanted to stay like this for the rest of my life, but unfortunately I didn’t have time for this right now.
“sister.”
Jubel gathered his sanity and fell away from Judiel.
“Jubel. He was really alive…”
Judiel’s lips trembled as she shed tears endlessly, as if she couldn’t control her emotions.
“You can’t be like this now.”
Jubel picked up the paper that Judiel had dropped. After quickly erasing any traces, I took her into the house.
“Huh…”
He released his energy, looked around, and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was no reaction.
‘I’m glad I finished preparations before the meeting time.’
Today is the day of the assassination, but there is still time to gather. Although it was a little bit, I was fortunate to have some spare time.
“Uhm…”
Judiel seemed to have come to her senses now, and with a red face, she wiped away the tears that had flowed from the corners of her eyes.
“And what on earth were you trying to do?”
She swallowed dryly as she examined Jubel’s outfit.
“….”
Jubel chewed his lip as he took off the mask he was wearing on his face.
‘Should I say that I lived as an assassin…’
I thought Judiel would be very sad if I said that I lived as an assassin and killed people. I didn’t want to see my sister cry anymore.
“Now is not the time to talk about such things…”
Just as he was trying to change the subject by saying that he didn’t have time, Judiel’s lips twitched again.
“I lived as a spy.”
“what?”
Jubel’s eyes widened at the word spy.
“I went to the place designated by above, collected the information there, and submitted a report.”
Judiel smiled brightly while looking at Jubel.
“I didn’t know what I was doing. “I didn’t want to live because I was saving my life by betraying the people who trusted me.”
She covered her mouth with a trembling hand.
“I tried to die, but when you came to mind, I couldn’t stop. “I took on a new mission with the thought of seeing your face one last time…”
Judiel’s eyes suddenly took on a pure and pure light.
“There I met the person I serve now.”
“Who are you serving? “Are we different from the humans who made us like this?”
“It’s completely different. “Because you are the one who saved me.”
She nodded with a small but sincere smile.
“Who is he?”
“….”
Judiel just smiled without answering. If he or Jubel were to die here, it could cause harm to Raon, so he didn’t mention his name.
“how about you? “How have you been?”
“I…”
Jubel swallowed dry saliva and looked up at the ceiling. He lowered his gaze again and smoothed out his night clothes, which were as black as the darkness.
“As you can see, I didn’t live a normal life. My sister told me earlier that she should die when she saw me. “It was the same for me.”
“….”
“I thought that even if I had to die, I would die to see if my sister was alive and well.”
Judiel said nothing, clenched his fists and listened to his younger brother.
“They said their older sister was resting comfortably in a rich house…”
Jubel wrinkled his eyebrows, recalling Daeju’s sly face.
“…I lived as an assassin. I’ve killed nine people so far, and today is the tenth. “They say they will send you back after the tenth assassination, but that won’t happen.”
He laughed, seeming to have already predicted his future.
“today?”
“okay. Sran tribe. “It’s our job to kill them all.”
“The Thran tribe is famous even in the Beast League. How do you get there….”
“I’ve finished all the preparations in advance. “It may be risky, but you won’t fail.”
Jubel sighed, saying that everything was already planned.
“Jubel.”
Judiel stood up and approached Jubel. She held his hand and nodded briefly.
“Let’s run away. You don’t need to be here anymore. “If we just get out of here, you and I can both survive.”
“….”
Jubel did not reject Judiel’s hand, but he also did not respond.
“Jubel?”
“I can’t go.”
He shook his head slowly.
“There are already a bunch of assassins hiding around Raven Village. “If you run away, you will die before you can leave the village.”
Jubel took a deep breath and continued.
“It’s a miracle that my sister was able to come this far. Everyone probably missed it because they were preparing for an upcoming mission.”
Jubel let go of Judiel’s hand and smoothed the wall next to the bed. The wall opened without a sound, revealing a small space where one person could hide.
“Sister, hide here, and when you hear the sound of a fire in the forest, go back to where you came from.”
“What are you talking about! “We should go together!”
“I told you. If the two of you escape together, you’re bound to get caught. “My head will fall off before I even get out of town.”
He held Judiel’s hand again. I forced a smile while holding back the tears that were about to come out due to the warmth.
“I’ll take my chance and get out. Sister, go out first.”
Jubel pointed to the mountain that Judiel came down from a while ago.
“I’m waiting up there. “I’ll be there soon.”
“….”
Judiel was no longer stubborn. I didn’t want to break up again, but now wasn’t the time to say that.
“okay. okay.”
I nodded and sat down on the old bed. He slapped the seat next to him with his palm and made a smile that did not fit the situation.
“Let’s talk about old times for a moment.”
“Hmm…”
Jubel couldn’t even refuse that and sat down next to Judiel.
“Do you remember back in the day when you couldn’t sleep unless you touched my knee?”
“What are you talking about! When did I!”
“I asked if you wouldn’t give me your knee, at least give me your arm?”
“no!”
Although the time given to the siblings was short, the smiles on their faces seemed deeper than anything else.
* * *
Colin, Jubel’s superior and the leader of the Phantom Death Team, bowed his head toward the small crystal ball.
“All preparations are complete. All personnel were deployed and embers were hidden. You can start right away at the scheduled time.”
A voice was heard from inside the crystal ball, thanking me for my hard work.
“no. By the way…”
Colin licked his lips and rolled his eyes.
“Are you really going to throw away all three trillion?”
[These are words raised for times like this. His head has already grown so big that trying to save him won’t help. Invest everything.]
The man with the crystal ball cut off Colin’s request coldly and decisively.
“All right.”
Colin immediately lowered his head as if he knew the personality of the man in the crystal ball.
[Then let’s see in a moment.]
“Yes.”
Colin lowered his head and covered the bead where the light had disappeared. He frowned as if he had no choice, then came out of the cave where he was hiding himself wearing a mask.
“lender.”
The assassins outside the cave came forward and bowed their heads.
“What are the internal signals?”
“Not yet.”
Team 1 leader Bern shook his head.
“Hmm…”
Colin looked up at the sky and frowned.
“I will go in for a moment and then come back.”
“There is still time left.”
“Know. “This is the final inspection, so don’t worry about it and just wait.”
Colin entered the village, hiding in the shadows.
The assassins waiting in the village and in the forest were hiding in a designated location as if they had already prepared.
Lastly, we headed to Jubel’s house built on the outskirts of the village. Like other assassins, he was also using stealth techniques at a designated location.
“No. 196.”
Instead of just passing by, Colin stopped in front of Jubel’s house with his eyes narrowed.
“Have you finished preparing?”
* * *
“Yes.”
Jubel swallowed his dry saliva as he looked at Colin who suddenly came to see him.
‘Why did this guy suddenly come here?’
The mission will begin in just a moment. I don’t know why Colin, who is supposed to be at the center of the situation and give instructions to everyone, came all the way here. A chill of anxiety passed through my spine.
“How about installing fire bombs?”
“It was done perfectly. “If you just burn the embers, a prison of fire will be created from which no one can escape.”
“Good work.”
Colin nodded and looked at the floor in front of the house with strange eyes.
‘what?’
What are you thinking?
After letting my sister in, I wiped off all traces of the floor, and Colin was smiling as if he knew something. My heart started beating faster and faster.
“It’s about the plan for Article 3. Let’s talk about it inside for a moment.”
“yes?”
Jubel looked up at the sky and narrowed his eyes.
“It will be operation time soon…”
“It’s okay. “It won’t be a very long story.”
“…All right.”
To avoid arousing suspicion, he nodded calmly and entered the room.
Colin sat on the chair against the wall as usual and leaned back. Fortunately, it was located opposite the wall where Judiel was hiding.
“Are you nervous?”
“A little….”
“You must be very short-tempered to be nervous even on your tenth task.”
The corner of his mouth curled up as if he was laughing.
“But you can do well. “There hasn’t been a single failure so far.”
“….”
Jubel did not answer, but relieved the tension building up in his heart with low breathing.
“I promise. This is the last time. “Once this is over, I can go see my sister.”
“How can you believe that?”
“Whether you believe it or not is up to you…”
Colin’s gaze drifted to the wall next to Jubel.
“Who are you hiding there?”
“What nonsense….”
“They erased the traces in front of the door in a hurry.”
“What do you mean by that? Before the mission, of course…”
“No. “It’s even weirder to erase your traces from the house you live in.”
Colin lifted his chin and twisted his mouth.
“After a while, everything will burn up anyway. You didn’t know, but among the countless footprints, there were also traces of a woman leading here. “There was a faint trace of whether it was the same occupation, but how could I have missed it?”
He smiled, looking at the wall next to him as if he already knew everything.
“come out.”
Colin held the blade of the dagger in his fingers and leaned it back over his shoulder.
“This is the last warning.”
“Whoa…”
Jubel chewed his blue lips and smoothed the wall. The wall split apart without a sound, and Judiel, wearing a robe, walked out again.
“Who is this woman?”
Colin grinned at Judiel.
“I’m very curious about who the woman you brought with you, who hasn’t even been near her since you came here.”
“This woman…”
Before Jubel could answer, he struck the wall just below where he had smoothed it a moment ago with his fist. He broke the window and immediately threw himself out of the house, holding Judiel in his arms.
Wow!
At that moment, red light flashed from the ceiling and floor and a huge explosion occurred.
Jubel and Judiel were thrown away by the aftermath of the explosion and rolled on the floor.
“I’m sorry.”
Judiel’s chin trembled as he looked at Jubel.
“no. It’s my fault. I should have kept in mind that that pervert was checking those traces. “No, let’s not say this now.”
Jubel shook his head as he helped Judiel stand up.
‘I’m glad I prepared the embers.’
I installed it near the Sran tribe village and hid the rest, which saved my life.
But there is no way Colin would die like that. It was clear that he would soon come to his senses and chase after me.
“That guy wouldn’t have died. “We have to run away quickly.”
Contrary to his words of running away, he only chewed his lips as if he did not know where to go.
“You said you know all the geography near the Sran tribe, right?”
“okay.”
“Then let’s go there.”
Judiel narrowed his eyes as he looked into the dark forest.
“There are assassins hiding in the forest that leads to the Sran tribe! “You’ll be caught before you even get there!”
“There are more of them out there. “The only place to go is there.”
She raised her finger and pointed at the bushes that rose up like blades.
“But…”
“I trust you because you know that forest better than anyone else.”
There is something I learned from watching Raon. If you don’t take risks, there is no reward for it. Now was the time to turn crisis into opportunity.
“The only path to life is that forest.”
* * *
Raon opened the portal and came out, frowning. My head was pounding, probably because I had moved through the gate several times.
“nice to see you.”
As I was massaging my aching temples, a middle-aged man with blue hair bowed his head. He was a man with impressive, calm eyes.
“My name is Lisrn of the Black Market Special Agent’s Office.”
As soon as I met his sharp eyes, I knew that this man was the former assassin that Denning Rose had mentioned.
“This is Raon Sieghardt.”
“I have heard of the title. It is an honour.”
Lisrn showed a stern smile.
“I don’t have time, so can we leave right away?”
“What do you mean by running out of time?…”
“Assassins hiding in the village are preparing to burn the forest. It looks like it will move today or tomorrow. “I wanted to remove the embers, but there was so much surveillance that I couldn’t move easily.”
“no. “Well done.”
If you touch it for no reason, the problem may become bigger. It was better to leave it alone and take care of it later.
“Huh…”
Raon frowned deeply. Lisrn said it would be today or tomorrow, but if preparations are made, there is nothing strange about moving now. We had to get to Raven Village as quickly as possible.
“I really don’t have time. Please depart.”
“I am quite confident in my walking skills. Is it okay with you?”
“Please do everything you can.”
Lithrn nodded and gently pushed the ground away. Unlike his legs, which stretched out lightly, his body stretched out at a frightening speed.
It was truly a skill that made one feel confident in his walking skills.
Teuong!
Raon looked at Lisbon’s back and stepped on the Taehwabo. He only took one step, but his shoulder was already in the same position as Lisrn.
“uh…?”
Lisrn opened his mouth wide, as if he had not expected Raon to follow so quickly.
“You can increase your speed.”
Raon nodded as if he was relaxed.
“Ugh.”
Lisrn bit his lip and increased his speed, but Raon immediately caught up as if he had no problem.
As I was running with Lithrn, whose expression was gradually dying, the village in the distance was engulfed in a huge fire, spewing out gray smoke.
“That’s…”
“That’s that village. “It’s already started!”
Lithrn’s eyes widened as if he had not anticipated this situation.
“I will go first.”
“yes?”
Raon didn’t listen to the answer and kicked the ground roughly. At that moment, the sound of the ground being torn apart was heard and his body stretched out, distorting the space.
“What is it?”
Lisrn gaped as he saw Raon, who had literally become a beam of red light.
“What kind of walking method is that…”
Raon ignored Lithrn’s reaction and made his way forward, standing at the entrance to Raven Village.
“Aaaaaaaaaah!”
“First of all, let’s start with the fire! “Turn off the fire first!”
“I’m fetching water from the river!”
I thought there was a massacre going on, but that wasn’t the case. Fires broke out here and there in the village and people were putting them out.
“Now wait a minute! “You can’t go in there!”
“it’s okay.”
Raon shook his head at the old man who tried to block his path and entered the fire.
As I looked around the outskirts of the village, I saw corpses wearing masks and night clothes. I was hit by a dagger in the chest, but I hesitated, so it didn’t kill me instantly.
Raon moved along the corpses and looked at the forest, which, unlike the village, was attracting huge flames.
I thought I would have to go inside to find out what was happening.
“Huh, huh…”
Lisrn, who arrived late, came to the side and let out a heavy breath. His eyes were filled with astonishment.
“Is that where the Sran tribe is?”
Raon pointed in the direction the assassins moved and narrowed his eyes. This was the place where the thickest flames bloomed.
“That’s right. “It looks like something different happened than we expected.”
Lithrn swallowed dryly as he looked at the assassin’s body.
As he said, it was not normal for assassins to die here. It was clear that Judiel and Jubel had met.
-That guy is so cool!
Lars grinned as if it was amusing.
‘Is it in there?’
-That’s right. The two are moving together and it looks quite dangerous.
The guy must have liked Judiel’s toast and let him know that she was alive.
“I will go inside. Lisrn, please wait here.”
After catching his breath, Raon walked towards the forest engulfed in flames.
“Now just a moment!”
Lithrn shook his chin and stepped forward.
“The Sran tribe is very wary. There is a fire and there are assassins, so they will definitely show murderous intent towards Raon. “I might be caught between assassins and attacked from both sides, so let’s figure out the situation first…”
“There is no option for me not to go now.”
Raon gently pushed Lisrn away. A fire thicker than the fire that enveloped the forest burned in his eyes.
“Because my subordinate is in there.”
