The Reincarnated Assassin is a Genius Swordsman - Chapter 667

Episode 667
Raon briefly took a sip of his appetite.

‘It’s a shame.’

I confirmed that there was a human who had made a contract with the demons, but I wasn’t sure who it was because they didn’t reveal their demonic energy.

Neither the priests nor the paladins seemed to notice what was happening because it was not directly the magic energy that moved them.

-What, what! How did you even know it was here!

Lars’ chin trembled as if he didn’t understand.

‘You gave me a hint.’

Raon chuckled, looking at the embarrassed Lars.

-What are you saying! When did King Bon give you a hint?

Lars shook his head and said absolutely no.

‘A castle wall protected by divine power and an agreement between humans and demons.’

Raon recited what Lars said before coming here and quenched his appetite.

-Well, what about that….

‘This kingdom is a place where there are so many beings with divine power that they get kicked in the foot. ‘Not only people, but also buildings and sculptures contain divine power.’

He walked to the center of the throne room and lightly snapped his fingers.

‘The only people who can do something crazy like making a contract with demons in a place like this are high-ranking people, not the lower classes.’

Low-ranking priests and knights have little divine power, so they cannot hide their magic energy completely.

No, even if you hide it, it will be discovered quickly because of the holy relics and priests clad in divine power.

In this Super Holy Kingdom, the only people who could completely hide demonic energy were high-ranking people with divine power as overflowing as the ocean.

-Keuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure….

Lars let out a groaning sound while holding his head. He pounded his chest, feeling frustrated that he had unintentionally given a hint.

‘As expected, the devil king gives generously. thanks.’

Raon smiled at Ras and stood in the center of the throne room. After confirming that the Gwangpungdae was following behind him, he knelt down on one knee towards the King on the stage.

“It is an honor to see the sky of Super.”

“Don’t kneel.”

When he was about to bow his head and say hello, Baurn, the King of the Super Kingdom, shook his head. His soft voice seemed to automatically straighten my back.

“Since you saved our knights, I should say hello.”

King Baurn bowed respectfully with his hands joined.

“Well, you don’t have to do that.”

This time, Raon was embarrassed and took a step forward and waved his hand.

‘What is this person?’

I have seen quite a few heads of families and kings since my past life until now, but this was my first time seeing someone like that. Derus wasn’t that polite either.

“it’s crazy? “Why does the king bend down so carelessly!”

The purple-haired girl next to the priest Firn furrowed her brows deeply.

“Where is the Queen Mother’s Award to express gratitude?”

King Baurn waved his hand and said it was okay.

“I’m embarrassed, so get up! “It’s not like the head of the Sieghardt family has come, why are you talking to kids like that?”

The girl said she was embarrassed and put her hand down.

“Saint. “We’re not the only ones, so please watch your mouth.”

The blonde paladin on the other side put a finger on his lips.

“With my snout. “I said I would tell you, but why are you being such a dick?”

The girl called a saint wrinkled her nose.

“Saint.”

The priest looked at the saint and smiled slightly.

“Gun…”

The saintess was unable to reply to the priest who was struggling and turned her head away.

“Anyway, the king is not rice. Even if the sun is hot and the wind is strong, you should not bend over carelessly.”

She clicked her tongue, telling him not to do that again.

“The knights and soldiers came back alive, so what’s wrong with my back?”

King Baurn laughed and said that he did not care about his status.

“I care! “It’s embarrassing!”

The saint screamed and begged for patience.

“Hmm….”

Raon looked back and forth between the king and the saint in vain.

‘That’s shit.’

It seemed like a guild of back alley thugs, not a sacred kingdom.

However, the biggest reason for the mess was because of that woman who was called a saint.

The saint was a beautiful woman with cat-like raised eyes, a sharp nose, and small lips, and it was hard to believe that two lusts could naturally come out of her pretty mouth.

Moreover, under the nun’s clothes that were torn on the shoulders and thighs, she was covered in mysterious tattoos, making her look like a gangster leader rather than a saint.

However, the divine power of the saint was outstanding even here. Even compared to other high-ranking priests, it was an overwhelming amount.

“What you looking at.”

The saintess who made eye contact raised her chin as if she was about to argue.

-Is that a saint?

‘Is that a saint?’

I laughed out loud. It’s been a while since I had the same thoughts as Lars.

“It’s similar to Nachalnyeo.”

Runan raised his finger and pointed at Martha and the saint in turn.

“What the hell are you talking about that little thing!”

Martha came forward and twisted her mouth.

“Is this little bitch crazy!”

“Damn the saint. “That’s a double bitch!”

She ran wild as if she had been let loose for the first time in a long time.

“stop!”

“Stop it!”

Raon and the King waved their hands at the same time.

“Please forgive me. “The saint spoke a little harshly…”

The king said he was sorry and bowed his head again.

“We are sorry too. “I have a bit of a dirty personality…”

Raon glanced at Marta and bent down.

“Ii….”

“Kuh….”

However, the two parties looked at each other and showed fierce eyes.

“Hmm, they said the king of monsters at the top of Mount Divarn was a double-headed ogre. “It must have been a really dangerous situation, so thank you for your help.”

King Baurn said thank you again to brighten the mood.

“no. “We are grateful to the Holy Kingdom for their consideration in dispatching Holy Knights to faraway places for the sake of the residents.”

Raon smiled slightly and shook his head. While saying thank you, he looked at the priests and knights one by one.

‘I don’t know who it is.’

Because everyone is surrounded by divine power, no demonic energy leaks out.

It seemed like I wouldn’t be able to find them unless I grabbed them one by one and pushed my anger into them.

“It’s not just this one. “Didn’t you save our knights during the attack in Varenes?”

The King continued to say thank you, as if he was sorry for not being able to say thank you.

“Ugh!”

The saintess sighed deeply and looked away, as if she did not like the king bending over.

The Holy Knight Commander and the Guard Knight Commander just watched without saying a word, while the Pirn Priest and the other priests showed a faint smile.

“You saved our knights twice, so I would like to repay you, albeit in a small way.”

The King personally came down from the podium, holding the wooden armor that had been placed on the golden table.

“This is Seongjinhwan made by mixing spirit vinegar and holy water. “I am more confident than any other elixir in the world when it comes to strengthening organs and muscles.”

He held out a wooden armor and asked me to take this.

“thank you.”

Raon bowed his head as he received the wooden armor containing Seong Jinhwan.

“I have also prepared an elixir to give to the prosecutors of Gwangpung University. Please accept it.”

At the king’s gesture, the young priests standing on the right came out and began handing elixirs to Gwangpungdae.

“You’re giving me everything? “Is that a waste?”

The saint could not bear it anymore and screamed.

“I made all of that while pooping! Even my kids can’t eat it! “This is crazy!”

“Saint.”

“Queu…”

The saintess bit her lip at the priest’s call.

“It’s amazing to have two Grand Masters and four Masters in one military unit. “As expected, it’s Sieghardt.”

King Baurn was in a daze as he looked at Gwangpungdae receiving the elixir.

“Not all Sieghardts are like this. “We are a little unusual.”

Raon shook his head with an embarrassed face. It’s not that I’m being humble, but even in the current Sieghart, there weren’t many armed forces that could defeat the Gwangpungdae.

“When Ouma is acting evil like these days, I can’t help but be envious of such enormous power. However…”

King Baurn looked around at the knights and priests in the throne room and showed a serious smile.

“We, the knights and priests of Super, have courage that goes beyond force, so I believe they will protect this land no matter who attacks.”

“of course!”

At those words, pride filled the faces of the knights and priests. It was an ideal relationship in which the king trusted his subordinates and the subordinates supported the king.

“your majesty. It may be God’s will that the Gwangpungdae came, so why not have them participate in the crusade? “The crusade is less than a week away.”

The blonde paladin looked up at the sunlight-drenched ceiling and smiled.

“Hmm…”

King Bauton touched his chin as if he wasn’t sure if it would be okay.

“What is a crusade?”

“It is an event to offer prayers to God. However, unlike the externally known sacred festivals, it would not be fun to just pray…” “

As they say, the sacred assembly is not a festival, but a prayer event. To outsiders, it’s just a sleeping pill. “Just go.”

The saint shook her head, saying that it was a day to pray all day.

“You’ll be bored because you won’t be able to swing a sword that day.”

The guard knight, who had been silent until now, placed his hand on his sword and lowered his eyes.

“It will certainly be boring, but encountering a world filled with divine power will be quite a spectacle in its own way.”

Priest Pirn told me to stay, saying it was something that was not easy to see.

“Well, if it was a festival, I was going to go back, but if it was such an event, I would rather participate.”

Raon laughed, saying that he thought it would be helpful to Gwangpungdae, who lacked patience.

‘It’s a world full of divine power…’

It’s perfect for finding demons.

* * *

Raon scooped up mint chocolate ice cream with almond slices and put it in his mouth.

The nutty taste of almonds and the sweet and bitter taste of mint chocolate filled my mouth. Honestly, I don’t know what it tastes like.

-Keuuu!

Lars, on the other hand, looked into space and let out a long exclamation.

-It feels like my mouth is alive and breathing! It was originally the best, but when the almonds were added, the taste dropped to the bottom!

The guy pointed his finger and asked me to try the next one.

‘It’s a compliment to fall all the way to the basement, right?’

Raon sighed and ate the white ice cream. A sweet yet refreshing coolness wetted my tongue.

-Is this pear-flavored ice cream? Big! It’s as refreshing as being in the North Sea!

Lars grinned, saying this is happiness and living.

‘hey.’

Raon put down his spoon and called Lars.

‘Do you know who made the contract with the demons?’

-Of course I know.

Lars nodded, asking why he didn’t know that.

-I just have no intention of saying anything.

The guy muttered that even if the ice cream was taken away from him, he wouldn’t open his mouth.

‘I don’t want to ask that. Instead…’

– Instead?

‘Do you know what the contract between demons and humans is?’

-How would you know that?

Lars shook his head, saying that even if he summoned the demon god, he wouldn’t know about the contract.

‘Then when will the contract between the demons and humans be fulfilled?’

-Hmm, looking at the amount of demonic energy, it won’t take long…

He said it would be soon and quenched his appetite.

‘also.’

Raon nodded as if he knew that would happen.

-also?

‘You said it was the work of humans who made a contract with demons, but I think differently. If a high-ranking person from the Holy Kingdom made a contract with a demon, it could never have been a personal matter.’

The goals of lower-class people are very simple and clear. I want to have money. I want to buy a nice house. I want to become stronger. etc. are direct.

However, those with status and power are different. Since he was already enjoying so much, it was clear that he would need to make a lot of sacrifices and make complicated wishes.

‘If the demonic energy is as high as you said, there is a high possibility that an accident will occur at the upcoming holy meeting.’

So the answer was somewhat visible.

It’s not just pride, I and Gwangpungdae are strong.

It is not good for the contractor to show up at a crusade where a contract with the demons may be made and leave a windbreaker behind.

There was a high possibility that he would be the one who opposed my staying.

‘The king said it wouldn’t be fun, and the head of the Holy Knights suggested the crusade itself. The Pirn Priest is also close to recommendation. The opposite is….’

A saint and a knight commander?

I didn’t think it was because the saint seemed so openly like a bully, but looking at it this way, it seemed like she was trying to erase suspicion by acting in the complete opposite way.

‘It’s difficult…’

Because there was so little information, it was difficult to find even if there were hints.

“Phew…”

As Raon sighed briefly, a knock was heard on the door.

“Come on in.”

After a while, the door opened and Hoppen came in and bowed his head.

“sorry.”

“yes?”

I tilted my head because I didn’t know what it meant.

“I lied.”

“You’re lying…”

“Didn’t your highness say that you prepared the Book of Martial Arts and the elixir to give to Raon? “Actually, those are the things I prepared…”

Hoppen said he was sorry and lowered his head again.

“At the time, my father was so sad over the death of his third brother that he had no time to think about anything else. “It was even more difficult because not only Brother Byton, but also my first and second brothers had already passed away in the arms of the goddess.”

“Ah…”

Raon swallowed dryly. I had no idea that three of the four princes were dead, so my breath came out naturally.

“My father and others were immersed in the sorrow of losing my brother, so I had to prepare myself.”

Hoppen held out a wooden armor and a book of martial arts. The wooden armor was the same Seongjinhwan that he received from King Baurn, and the book was written on Broun Swordsmanship.

“It is a defense-oriented upward swordsmanship. I learned it too. it will help.”

Raon looked at Hofen without receiving the wooden armor and martial arts book.

“Lord Hoppen must have had a hard time, so why…”

“My brother didn’t just pass away. You pushed me and the other knights out of the clutches of the White Blood Cult. “He said he was asking for my father even as he was dying, so I have to do my job.”

Hoppen said so and handed over the martial arts book and wooden armor.

“….”

Raon was about to say no, but when he saw Hoppen’s calm eyes, he held out his hand and accepted his gift.

“Thank you for accepting me.”

Hoppen smiled as if he understood what that meant.

‘He is a warm person.’

Both Hoppen and his older brother Byton, whom I had previously met, were people the more I saw them, the more I became attached to them. These were knights worthy of the name Holy Kingdom.

‘But…’

I can’t get rid of my doubts.

“Lord Hoppen. “Excuse me, can I see your wrist?”

Raon raised his finger and pointed to Hoppen’s right wrist.

“Wrist?”

“Lord Hoppen’s energy is unusual, so I’d like to check it out.”

“As much as you want.”

Because a thick mana circuit passes through the wrist, most warriors do not give their wrists to others.

But Hoppen immediately gave me his wrist, as if he really trusted me.

“Thank you….”

Raon nodded slightly and grabbed Hoppen’s wrist. He pushed the anger of Mangagong and Lass into his mana circuit.

“Hmm…”

Although it was not a demonic energy, it was an energy containing the personality of a demon lord, so a low groan came out of Hopen’s mouth.

‘As expected, there isn’t one.’

Even though I looked closely, I couldn’t see any traces of magic or demons.

If Hoppen had been possessed by a demon, he would not have been able to trust people for a while, but it was a good thing.

“Did you notice anything unusual?”

“no.”

Raon looked at Hoppen and shook his head.

“Lord Hoppen’s aura is not unusual.”

“yes? “What is that…”

“Now I can be honest with you.”

Raon looked at Hoppen’s embarrassed eyes and calmed his gaze.

“Actually, as soon as I entered Super, I felt the magic. At the entrance…”

I told Hoppen everything that had happened so far.

“Oh, no…”

Hoppen gaped as if he couldn’t believe it.

“Wow, that’s ridiculous! Even if it was possible in the royal capital, there were my father, a saint, a holy knight, and a priest in the throne room, so how could it be…” “

It wasn’t demonic energy, it was just the breath that demons exist. “No wonder you don’t notice.”

Raon calmly shook his head and raised a nova that bloomed from the darkness.

“Poetry, divine power?”

Hofen’s lips trembled as he looked at the divine power burning in his grasp.

“It is clearly divine power, but why is there a dark energy…”

“It is divine power extracted from demonic energy. Because of this ability, I can recognize the presence of demons better than anyone else.”

Raon continued speaking while looking at Hoppen’s shaking eyes.

“The demons will appear in the not too distant future. “I think of that moment as this crusade.”

“Now, please give me some time to think.”

Hoppen closed his eyes and took a breath. After about a minute, he slowly lifted his eyelids.

“….”

Raon waited for Hoppen’s answer in silence.

“For now, I will believe what Raon says. “If you don’t have demons, it’s good because you don’t have them. If you do, it’s better to be prepared, so I don’t think you’ll lose anything.”

Hoppen sighed and rested his chin. He seemed to have made a cool decision in a short period of time.

“What should I do?”

“First, please give me information about the dignitaries in the throne room.”

Raon bowed his head and asked to know about the dignitaries in the throne room.

“Huh…”

Hoppen took a breath and raised his fingers.

“First, let’s start with the priest we met. He is an acting priest who holds the highest position among the twelve high-ranking priests. After becoming a priest from a young age, he achieved his current position by doing many good deeds. “He is the person most respected by all priests and knights.”

“okay.”

When I heard that, I was like a madwoman. No, it occurred to me that the priest whom the saint had fallen in love with had been discouraged.

“The knight on the other side is Lord Daniev, Commander of the Guard. You are the best knight in the kingdom, having reached the rank of Grand Master. “He may not talk much, but he is a friend and bodyguard who watches over my father’s back.”

Hoppen shook his head, saying that these two had been with the King since he was a child, and said,

“The person next to Lord Daniev is my immediate superior, Lord Kinnear. Even though he received God’s blessing, he was not arrogant and trained hard to become a paladin, which is the dream of all paladins at a young age. And the saint….”

He swallowed dryly as if it was difficult.

“You may have a rough mouth, but your heart is warmer than anyone else’s. “He went to all battlefields and rescued people.”

“Is that so…”

I shook my head because I couldn’t believe that.

“He personally went to Varene, which was attacked by the White Blood Cult and the Holy Sword Master, and also went to Balkar, which was at war with the Black Tower, to save people.”

“Hmm…”

Raon scratched his head because he couldn’t believe what he said.

“I understand even if you don’t believe it.”

Hoppen smiled slightly and explained about other priests and knights.

“Haa….”

After the whole story was over, Hoppen let out a long sigh.

“The more I think about it, the more I am convinced that it is no one. But there’s no way Raon would tell such nonsense, so it’s frustrating.”

“I understand. “Still, I have to find it.”

As Raon was taking a deep breath, the door opened, and the three leaders, Rimmer, and Mark Goeten came in.

“Why are you calling me at a time like this?”

Marta frowned as she unwrapped the towel covering her wet hair. She was about to speak informally, but when she saw Hoppen there, she raised her voice.

“It’s not a public situation right now. “You don’t have to use that awkward formality.”

“okay? “I was annoyed when I saw that bitch earlier, but it’s okay.”

Martha sat down on the bed and sighed.

“Nachalnyeo and Ssangnyeon.”

Runaan covered her mouth and giggled.

“You shut up!”

Marta screamed at Runaan.

“Why did you call me?”

Rimmer sat in his chair and snapped his fingers.

“If you have something to say, say it quickly. “I need to find a gambling place.”

“I have an important story to tell.”

I told everyone what Raon had said to Hoppen.

“Magi in the Holy Kingdom….”

“T-is that really true?”

“Asmodians…”

Burren, Marta, and Runaan swallowed dry saliva.

“Are you sure.”

Raon nodded.

“And that demon is likely to move during this crusade.”

“I guess so. Because it was said that all citizens of the kingdom, priests and paladins, prayed all day long. “It will take quite some time.”

Rimmer nodded, saying he thought he would make a move that day.

“So you said you would stay.”

Buren nodded, saying he understood now.

“I thought for some reason.”

“Well, it was strange that someone who was crazy about training would remain.”

Marta laughed and said she thought the same thing.

“No, this is also training.”

Raon calmly shook his head.

“Because you will be able to gain much more from fighting demons or demons than from training alone.”

“Ugh…”

“This monster…”

The two shook their heads as if they were fed up.

“Besides, how great the reward will be if you save the Holy Kingdom from the hands of the demons.”

Raon took a long sip.

“You’re laughing.”

Marta laughed and shook her head.

“Not even this elf, how could you possibly wish for something like that?”

She shook her head, pointing at Rimer, who was dazed.

“that’s right. “You don’t question things like that.”

Burren also shook his head, saying there was no need for that.

“Please come to Japsili.”

Runaan nodded.

“Why are you making such an uproar over me who is just sitting still!”

Rimmer shook his head furiously.

Hoppen also laughed silently.

“Anyway, starting tomorrow we have to find out who made the contract with the demons. “We stick close to the dignitaries, pretending to see the place.”

Raon nodded while giving instructions to the three leaders, Rimmer, and Mark Goeten.

“I will help too.”

Hoppen clenched his fist, saying he would only choose people he could truly trust.

“yes. “Let’s give it a try.”

Raon looked everyone in the eye and nodded.
