The Reincarnated Assassin is a Genius Swordsman - Chapter 697

Episode 697

“You’re not pushing the date, you’re pushing it back?”

Rimmer opened his mouth wide as he looked at Raon’s peaceful eyes.

“yes. “Usually, when something dangerous happens, we rarely think about pushing back or delaying the schedule.”

Raon nodded, looking at the embarrassed Rimer.

“I plan to aim for that and conduct a life-or-death decision on December 31st.”

While saying that, I wrote down the date of December 31st on a piece of paper.

“That’s right…”

Rimmer sighed, touching his smooth chin.

“Because the matriarch, Ogram, and Chamber all told us to postpone it.”

He nodded, saying that no one had told him to push back on his schedule.

“Furthermore, I will ask you to keep the location and time strictly confidential so that only Sieghart and the North and South Alliance soldiers can come.”

“okay. Then, even those who use the energy of death won’t be able to come.”

Rimmer clapped his hands coolly as if it was a good idea.

“You really have a good head.”

“no. “He will come.”

Raon chewed his lips as he looked at the purple sky created by the sinking sun.

His father, Roman, will not betray him, but Derus’s influence will certainly seep into the North-South alliance.

This information has no choice but to be released eventually.

‘He always comes.’

Derus may have thought of Glenn and I as dangerous people before, but today, during the Six Emperors’ Meeting, he must have marked us as targets who must be killed unconditionally.

‘Because I saved Mr. Ogram.’

I will think of him as a troublesome being who chases after the White Blood Church and saves Ogram, and who will start a fight, and Glenn will think of me as a dangerous being who neutralizes the energy of death, so he will do anything to kill us both.

‘The best chance for him to come out and kill the matriarch…’

This would be life or death.

If it’s Derus Robert, regardless of whether I win or my father wins, as soon as the life-or-death battle is over, I will send in the shadows and cause a melee.

Even the winner in a life-or-death battle will not be in a healthy state, so if he is surprised, he will have no choice but to die.

The moment the fair confrontation breaks down, a war will break out between Sieghardt and the North and South Alliance, and Glenn will take action himself.

It was clear that Derus would surprise Glenn when the war between Sieghardt and the North and South Alliance reached its peak.

“Are you going to continue fighting for your life knowing that someone using the energy of death is coming?”

Rimmer approached with his brow furrowed.

“That guy is dangerous! “I told you that the proud Yawang could have lost one-on-one!”

He shook his head, holding Raon’s shoulder as if saying absolutely nothing.

“So we have to be prepared.”

Raon nodded calmly. There was a 90% chance that Derus would come, so we had to think that he was coming and prepare for it.

“prepare? how?”

“First, let me write a letter to my father.”

A note with all the location and requirements written on it was tied to Cheongbi-eung’s leg.

“It is done, return to your master.”

Cheongbi-eung nodded once and flew up into the dark sky.

“I would like to borrow the continent’s strongest sword.”

Raon rolled up the sword of Jecheon Sword and held it as he watched Cheongbi-eung heading south as if it were a blue flash.

“Even if I have to sacrifice all my gold plates.”

* * *

Raon went back to the throne room without even eating dinner and knelt before Glenn.

“See you, matriarch.”

“It is done.”

I was about to bow my head when Glenn waved his hand. He told me to get up and said there was no need to say hello twice a day.

“What’s going on at this hour?”

“I received a call from my father a little while ago.”

“To your father?”

“yes. “They sent me a spirit called Cheongbi-eung.”

“What did it say?”

“I told you not to run away because I will fight you anywhere and at any time. So I…”

Raon told Glenn the same thing he had said to Rimmer in the training hall.

“It’s December 31st…”

Glenn touched his chin and narrowed his eyes.

“Did you think about it well?”

He nodded, saying he didn’t expect Cheryl to push the date.

“You probably wouldn’t know that life and death were happening that day!”

“Hehehe, it’s definitely not easy to predict that the schedule will accelerate.”

Loen also smiled slightly, saying that it would be better to push forward rather than delay.

“no.”

Unlike Cheryl and Loen, Glenn shook his head calmly.

“He is someone who has figured out Ogram’s movements and tendencies. “Raon’s plan is certainly unique, but there is a high possibility that it will be overlooked.”

He frowned as if he had predicted the swordsman’s movements using the energy of death in this brief moment.

“you’re right.”

Raon nodded, looking at Glenn.

“So this life-or-death game will be the best way to tempt him.”

I opened my subspace pocket and took out all the gold and silver plaques I had received so far.

“I will be the bait, so please catch him.”

Raon pushed the gold and silver plaques towards Glenn and hit his head on the floor.

‘This is an opportunity.’

If Glenn steps forward, I can target Derus just like Derus is targeting me.

At least one piece of evidence that can reveal Derus’ identity must be clearly engraved.

“La, Raon!”

“Master Raon?”

Cheryl and Roen let out a sigh as if they were surprised by the sudden situation.

“Ahahahaha!”

Rimmer, who was leaning against a pillar, shook his head and burst into laughter.

“Is this what you meant by borrowing the strongest sword? After all, he is the biggest crazy person in our family!”

He even applauded, saying he would not disappoint.

Raon chewed his lip as he looked at the sparkling gold and silver plaques.

‘They’re useless now anyway.’

If you win in a life-or-death battle, you can raise Sylvia to the direct line regardless of the gold medal.

These paddles were items that had no meaning to me now.

“Raon Sieghardt. “I am not a mercenary.”

Glenn’s red eyes became colder than ice.

“Ugh….”

Raon’s chin trembled as he faced that eerie eye light.

‘Why not?’

My relationship with Glenn has become somewhat closer these days, and I thought he would get angry because of Ogram, but it seems I was greatly mistaken.

“sorry. But it doesn’t mean you are buying the head of the family…”

“But.”

Glenn snapped his fingers, and the gold medals he had taken out went back into the subspace pocket.

“It’s impossible to leave the trash that messed with a member of the family and got involved in a duel between allies.”

He nodded with solemn eyes.

“Tell me your plan.”

Raon raised his head, clenching his hand that was on the floor into a fist.

“What I want to ask you is….”

* * *

The next day.

Raon came out to the 5th training camp early in the morning.

When I finished basic swordsmanship and was about to focus on training in earnest, the door to the training room opened, and Buren, Marta, and Runan came in.

“You came as expected. “That traitor!”

Marta frowned deeply as she looked at Raon.

“betrayer?”

I blinked, repeating that Raon was a traitor.

“You are a traitor for leaving us behind and attacking the White Blood Cult on your own.”

Burren sighed and shook his head.

“Ah…”

Raon let out a low groan as he looked at Marta with her lips pouting.

‘Others may not know, but Martha can.’

For Martha, the White Church is the enemy itself. Since even the white blood cult leader was involved, she couldn’t help but regret not being able to participate in this matter.

But I don’t regret not taking it with me. It could have been really dangerous if Martha had gone along.

“Sorry. But…”

“Don’t apologize! “Because I know!”

Martha looked this way and shook her head. His black eyes, which resembled, but did not resemble, the leader of the White Blood Cult, were engulfed in a solid light.

“I couldn’t go because I was weak.”

She chewed her lip deeply.

“I have no intention of saying anything to you. betrayer.”

“They are already calling me a traitor…”

“I will become stronger. “I will become stronger than anyone else, crush them all, and save my mother.”

“….”

Raon suppressed his anger and wasted nothing as he watched Marta talking about growth.

‘It’s changed.’

There are no more colts who jump in without hesitation when they lose their temper. Martha had become Sieghardt’s swordsman, looking into the distance while hiding her emotions.

“Still, I want to ask you one thing. The white blood cult leader. “No, mom, is your body okay?”

Martha lowered her head as if she was scared to hear the story about the white blood cult leader.

“okay. “It still looked okay.”

Raon nodded, remembering the white-blooded cult leader who followed him until the end with his hair scattered.

“Huh…”

Martha sat down helplessly. She let out a long moan between the disparate values of her mother’s body being safe and the white blood cult leader being fine as well.

“And…”

Raon raised his finger, arousing the energy of a strong sea fog.

“There is a way to save your mother.”

“what…?”

Martha stood up from where she was sitting.

“Well, what does that mean?”

“There is a martial arts called Gyeokhaemu…”

Ogram explained that Gyeokhaemu is not simply a martial arts that pierces auras, but a transcendental martial arts that can shock even the soul.

I told Martha that if I reached the extreme limit of the intense sea fog, I could attack only the soul of the white blood cult leader while leaving Martha’s mother’s body intact.

“I told you before. “I will help you find your mother.”

Raon nodded, looking at Marta’s trembling eyes.

“I will keep that promise.”

“….”

Martha hurriedly turned her back.

“thanks. Ugh…”

She shook her shoulders as if she had nothing to say other than thank you, then wiped her eyes with the back of her hand.

I knew what family was like through Sylvia and the other members of the annex, so I held her shoulder without saying a word.

“Haaa….”

Martha took a long time to catch her breath and then turned her back. She lowered her head with red eyes and immediately began swinging her sword.

“Martha?”

“I can’t stay still either. “I need to build up skills that can buy me some time while you’re fighting hard.”

She said she would definitely follow him next time and started practicing swordsmanship.

“…I’m going too.”

Runaan stood next to Martha with a rare serious look in his eyes and struck down his sword.

Because of what happened in Syria, she seemed to sympathize with Martha’s pain.

“I felt it since I was a trainee, you are the type of person who attracts people.”

Burren looked at Raon and smiled faintly.

“It is the temperament that is often called a hero.”

“You hated me back then.”

Raon tilted his head while looking at Buren.

“okay. I hated it. “But when I saw your shoes, I changed my mind.”

“shoes?”

“Be sure to win if it’s a matter of life or death. “You have a lot of work to do.”

Burren did not answer, but went next to Runaan and pulled out his sword.

Raon quenched his appetite while watching the three leaders practicing their sword skills.

‘It’s changed, but it hasn’t changed.’

Watching these three people, who I thought would go their separate ways, practicing swordsmanship together, strangely made my heart tingle.

Raon smiled lightly and stood next to Buren, Marta, and Runan and raised his sword.

The sun rose, warming the cold dawn air, behind the four people who had set their swords and hearts.

* * *

Vice King Roman slowly opened his eyes. The ferocity that had always surrounded his eyes no longer existed.

What shines is the setting sun. There was only a noble sunset that colored the river water golden.

“I can see it now.”

I watched countless sunsets along this river over the course of a year.

It was always the same sky, but today was different.

The deep and straight sunset bisected the sky and the earth as if it contained my life.

The violet sky, the blue river, and the dusk that rose between them shattered the rock of Sangsangjeon that had weighed me down for years without leaving a single piece behind.

Coooooo!

Red-colored river water rose into the newly opened area of Sangsangjeon.

enlightenment. The area of ascension filled with agony over a long period of time created a heavy image in my mind.

Roman lowered his eyelids. When he opened his eyes again a while later, the sky was dark.

But the twilight light that brought the night did not leave his eyes.

Coo coo coo coo!

Roman stood up while holding the Sekiryubu. A red stream of air burned within the eyes of the dragon caught in the hilt.

He grabbed the red dragon with both hands and hit it towards the river.

Kuwaaaa!

A terrifying energy spread out, and the endlessly flowing river split in half. It was a strange force that did not stop the water, but caused it to flow back.

Coo!

Roman smiled deeply, as if he was satisfied, and drove the Red Dragon into the ground.

“Raon Sieghardt.”

He looked for Raon in the river with his eyes filled with twilight.

“You can follow me, right?”

* * *

The falling starlight subsides, and a burn-like blush appears above the black sky.

“Haa….”

Raon, who was standing on the lake, let out a low breath and lifted his eyelids.

‘Maybe it was a little lacking.’

I trained both my body and mind for a month, but I was unable to perfect my swordsmanship, sword training, or auror skills.

It was not a lack of time, but the training itself was too difficult.

‘I was too greedy.’

It was natural that it would take more time and be more difficult since it was not only a matter of creating a new sword world with only the martial arts that one had, but also the hearts of Glenn, Ras, and Ogram.

‘I don’t regret it though.’

Life and death with my father is a big hill, not a final destination. In order to defeat Derus Robert, we had to look further afield.

Slurp!

Raon pulled out the Jecheon Sword. He lightly bent his sword and struck the lake.

The simplest of the basic sword techniques is the downward slash. But the aftermath was not simple.

Quaaaaa!

The lake gently split and flowed to the bottom, as if it had welcomed God.

Sigh!

The lake, which had been divided in half, slowly came together and returned to its original calm state, as if it had never been split.

‘It’s still not enough…’

Still, I have no choice but to go.

Life or death is today. Now, he had no choice but to gain enlightenment during the battle with his father.

Paaaang.

Raon shook off the dry Jecheon sword and put it in its sheath.

The red sun rises over the dark Bukmangsan Mountain.

The golden light of dawn, erasing the night and opening the dawn, dwelled in Raon’s red eyes.

“Las. “If you don’t wake up…”

Raon tapped the ice flower bracelet with dawn-filled eyes.

“I take all the delicious food.”
