The Reincarnated Assassin is a Genius Swordsman - Chapter 789

Episode 789

“Really?”

Raon looked at Merlin with trembling eyes.

“Is there really a way to wake him up?”

Even Saint Pedric of Rags had given up half the time, saying he didn’t know how to wake Sia, but he didn’t expect Merlin to give a definite answer. My heart started beating so fast it felt like it was going to explode.

“Please, please!”

Sylvia walked up to Merlin and took her hand.

“Tell me how to wake Sia up!”

She knelt down and said she would do anything.

“If it’s what you said, it wouldn’t be a lie.”

Edgar came next to Sylvia and nodded.

“Please do me a favor too. “Help me wake up Sia.”

He also knelt before Merlin, just like Sylvia.

There seemed to be nothing to fear for the couple who found the daughter they thought they had lost.

“Just tell me how.”

Glenn stood in front of Merlin with a heavy gaze.

“This is a child who has been asleep for 20 years. “I can’t leave it like this.”

He clenched his fists with trembling hands, saying he would pay any price.

“Me too.”

Rektar bit his lip while listening to Sia’s soft breathing.

“I can’t go anywhere without seeing my granddaughter waking up.”

He bowed his head to Merlin, saying he would also ask.

“Merlin.”

Raon approached Merlin and put his hands together in front of him.

“Please. “Tell me how.”

He spoke with sincerity and bowed. It’s not because of my two grandfathers, my mother, and my father.

Because I saw myself from my previous life in Sia’s life, I wanted to break the devil’s grip on her soul and find freedom.

“Why are you being like this?”

Contrary to what he said was a burden, Merlin took a step forward with a bright smile.

“Do not worry. “I’m sure I can wake you up.”

As she said those words, she held Silvaa’s hand tighter.

“Really?”

Sylvia shed tears, saying she would believe that.

“Sure. But it’s not easy. “It’s not something we can do right now.”

Merlin took a quick bite, as if he was disappointed.

“You mean you can’t do it now?”

Raon tilted his head while looking at Merlin.

“Can’t we just go into the world of images like we did a while ago?”

“The situation is different from back then.”

Merlin shook his head firmly.

“At that time, the young lady’s world of images was opened to her by the Green King, but now she is alone. If you or I were to use that magic now, our souls could suffer a huge shock. If that happens…”

She cracked her fingers roughly.

“There’s a really high chance that you’ll never wake up.”

“Then how…”

“We need materials to safely face the soul.”

“What is that ingredient?”

“Soul stone.”

Merlin raised his hand as if this was the point. A mirror with iridescent brilliance appeared in her grasp.

“It’s an item that allows you to face your soul without any burden.”

“Are you talking about that mirror?”

Raon swallowed dryly as he looked at the mirror flashing in Merlin’s grasp.

“What I saw was this mirror, but there may be other forms as well.”

Merlin let out a heavy breath, thinking it wouldn’t be easy to find.

“Where is the mirror?”

Glenn narrowed his eyes as he looked at the mirror Merlin showed him.

“It’s an artifact of Fallen Heaven.”

Merlin raised the mirror into the air and frowned.

“It’s something he uses to make special helmets and masks. “I always carry it with me, so now I don’t know if it’s dead or alive, so I won’t be able to find it.”

She clicked her tongue, saying it was a waste.

“You said there are other forms, right? “Where is it?”

Raon chewed his molars while looking at the increasingly blurry mirror.

“I don’t know either.”

Merlin shook his head slowly.

“No one will know what shape it is or where it is.”

“What does that mean?”

“The soul stone is not something you can find even if you want to. “It happened by chance.”

“by chance?”

I asked back because I didn’t understand what he was saying.

“Once every few decades. The moment the sun and moon come closest to each other, the passage in the sky closes for a moment, and there are times when lost souls dwell in nearby objects. “At that time, what is created along with the rainbow color is the soul stone.”

Merlin created a rainbow, a characteristic of soul stones, above his grasp.

“We call them soul stones, but they may not actually be stones because they were created accidentally. It could be a dead tree, a plant, or an object that has already been touched by humans. “I also searched the entire continent with the eyes of animals, but I couldn’t find it.”

“Hmm…”

“No special mana or aura blooms, and this bright light only shines at the moment when the soul stone is created, so very few people are aware of its existence.”

She calmed the flickering light in her hands, saying that the search would have to start now.

“Then how can I find out the soul stone?”

“You and other transcendental people will be able to tell just by touching it. “Because inside the soul stone, other people’s images are open.”

Merlin sighed briefly, thinking that even the Grand Master could do it.

“Tell me in more detail.”

Glenn extended his hand to Merlin as if he wanted to make sure he remembered.

“Sure.”

Merlin nodded and summarized the stories he had told so far.

-You were talking about a lost soul.

Lars nodded as if he understood now.

‘Do you know?’

-I saw this king only once in the demon world. It was tasteless and meaningless so I threw it away right away.

The guy said he regretted throwing it away and quenched his appetite.

“Hmm….”

“Soul stone….”

“It won’t be easy.”

The other people’s complexions darkened as if they were hearing about the soul stone for the first time.

It was said that it was an object created by chance, that it had no characteristics when it was created, and that you had to be at least a Grand Master to feel it, so it was natural for everyone to despair.

“Sia…”

Sylvia finally couldn’t hold back and began to sob while holding Sia’s hand.

Seeing her cry again, wondering how long it had been since she had a flawless smile, made me feel like the world was punishing her.

“I want to ask you something.”

Raon could not see Sylvia and turned his gaze to Merlin.

“Sia. “No, what’s the problem if my sister doesn’t wake up for a while?”

“It’s as if I’m sleeping right now. “All you have to do is provide proper nutritional supplements.”

Merlin narrowed one eye, telling him not to worry as time was not running out.

“That’s right. “Right now, Sia’s body is in a sleeping state.”

I felt a little more reassured when Pedric gave me a guarantee.

“Of course, if this situation continues even after several years, there is a possibility that the gap between the soul and body will widen further.”

Merlin shook his head, saying that he shouldn’t waste time.

“Roen.”

There was nothing in response to Glenn’s call, so Loen fell out of thin air.

“yes. “Matriarch.”

Roen lowered his head with serious eyes, as if he knew the seriousness of the situation.

“Contact the Black Market and all branches, vassal families, and allies. “Everything.”

Glenn walked out of the hospital room, lifting the long cloth from his shoulder as if he intended to move on his own.

“I guess I’ll have to find out if there’s another way.”

Pedric also headed to the clinic, saying he would contact other doctors and priests.

“Sylvia. Let’s go back today. “Sia will have a harder time.”

Edgar returned to the annex with Sylvia, who was crying as if she was about to collapse.

“….”

Rektar bit his lip. He followed Edgar today without being able to touch his granddaughter.

“Merlin. “There is one thing I want to ask you.”

Raon approached Merlin only after the two were left in the hospital room.

“What?”

Merlin lifted his chin as if asking him to say as much as he wanted.

“If I bring the soul stone, everything will be resolved, right? “Without any problems?”

“…of course.”

She trailed off so briefly that it was hard to feel, then nodded.

“Is this really true?”

“okay. Believe me.”

Merlin smiled and said that he would definitely wake the lady up.

“I mean, other than your sister, is there a problem with you too?”

Raon narrowed his gaze as he looked into Merlin’s eyes.

Since it was a magic that dealt with the soul, we had to make sure that there was no damage to Merlin.

“Are you even worried about me in this situation? After all, there is only Raon!”

Merlin let out a hot breath and threw himself towards Raon.

“Ugh…”

Raon hurriedly took steps and fell five steps backwards.

“There’s no need to go that far.”

Merlin took a long sip as if he was regretful.

“Just answer the questions. “Are you really okay?”

“of course. “It’s no different from going into a helmet.”

She waved her hand saying there was nothing to worry about since there was a medium called the soul stone.

“Well, that’s true, but… Anyway, if there is a problem, please tell me clearly.”

“huh!”

Merlin placed his hand on his head as if saluting.

“You also have a lot of places to contact. “Stop it.”

She tapped her wrist to see if she was busy.

“That’s right….”

Raon nodded, looking at Sia.

Even if I excluded the black market because Glenn would contact me, I felt like I had to move quickly because there were a lot of people to contact.

“thanks.”

He bowed to Merlin and left the hospital room.

“There is no need for such words between us.”

Merlin waved his hand lightly and sent Raon off.

“Haa….”

She looked at Raon’s back and let out a low breath.

“It won’t be easy either way.”

Merlin sat on the chair in front of the bed with empty eyes.

She stroked Sia’s head and smiled somewhat sadly.

“It may not be appropriate to say this, but I envy you…”

* * *

A pirate ship was floating elegantly on the strong waves, like a child’s rough drawing.

“Water seeps in! “Pull it out quickly!”

“Pull from here! “It’s turning over!”

“Aris is holding the helm? “Why are you shaking so much?”

Unlike the gracefully rocking pirate ship, the sailors on the deck were fighting the waves, moving as if they had two bodies.

“Ah, what a bother…”

Aris, who was blinking at the front of the pirate ship, placed her hand on her sword.

The moment her hand pulled out the silver blade, the dark clouds and tidal wave that had been attacking the pirate ship were split in half.

Whoa!

As the space gap dividing heaven and earth opened, the pitch-black storm subsided as if frightened, and the sun revealed between the dark clouds poured out its warm heat as if blessing the pirate ship.

“Haa….”

Aris sighed deeply as she looked at the sea where the waves had subsided.

“Did I neglect it too much?”

She looked back at the fake captain Lavawin who had already approached her and scratched her head.

“I was raised a little rough, but I never thought you wouldn’t contact me like this.”

Aris frowned, saying she should have been a little friendlier.

“If he had been friendlier, he would have passed away before you left.”

Labawin looked into Aris’s gloomy eyes and laughed.

“I too am curious about the news from you, but I don’t think there will be any problem. As you always say, you don’t have the skills to go anywhere and get hit.”

He shook his head and told me not to worry.

“Unlike Raon, he was quiet, but he had a desire for power. So I thought the news would come on its own, but I never thought it would be this quiet.”

“I think you are lying about your identity. “These days, thanks to the wars that are taking place here and there, we are hearing about the reputation of emerging powers, and this might be one of them.”

“Lying your identity… That could be possible. “Because that idiot doesn’t care about fame at all.”

Aris took a quick bite while looking at the calm waves.

“Ha, seeing Raon makes me think of my son. I’m also disqualified from being a mother.”

She shook her head regretfully.

“Unlike you, Master Raon, you are clumsy.”

Labawin smiled softly as if he understood what he meant.

“You were good at everything. Muhak’s talent, interpersonal relationships, and tactical strategies. There was nothing he couldn’t do. Of course, Raon has more talent than that, but strangely enough, he is even more clumsy than a child when it comes to interpersonal relationships.”

“okay. “I’ve never seen a child have such difficulty with the aunt sound.”

Aris chuckled, recalling Raon’s awkward expression.

“It wasn’t until he eventually rose to the top that he started calling me aunt. “It was refreshing and absurd.”

She nodded, saying it was really fun when she competed with her grandfather over the aunt name.

“Like you said, my son is quick to notice things like that, so it wasn’t fun. However, after hearing Raon call me aunt, I suddenly wanted to see her.”

Aris stroked her red hair and clicked her tongue.

“Just in case, we will also gather information on prosecutors whose names have been recently announced. “You may be hiding your identity.”

“Don’t just look for prosecutors, search all unmanned areas. That guy can suddenly throw a punch.”

“All right.”

That was when Labawin smiled faintly and was about to back away.

Kiyi!

A white seagull flew in and landed in front of Aris. The guy lifted the leg where the paper was tied as if to quickly remove it.

“He’s a cocky guy. “What did you write… huh?”

Aris chuckled and unfolded the paper on the seagull’s feet. As soon as she checked the contents, she let out a harsh breath.

“What’s going on?”

“Two years ago…”

Aris checked the contents of the note twice and trembled.

“I heard someone saw my son?”

* * *

“Haa….”

Raon let out a thin breath on the stage of the 5th training center.

‘There was no contact.’

Four days have passed since I shared the story about the soul stone, but no one has contacted me.

Since Glenn also didn’t say anything, it seemed like he couldn’t find it through Sieghardt’s report or his connections.

‘Well, I said it would be hard to find.’

Even Merlin, who gave me information about the soul stone, said that it was difficult to find, so it was rather strange to find it right away.

-To be honest, it is a strange thing to be discovered by humans.

Lars frowned, saying it had to be that way.

‘Las. ‘I said there was a way to get to the Demon World, right?’

-You’re going to the demon world because of that? stupid! This is impossible for you now, and it will take a long time!

The guy shook his head, saying it was too far back.

‘Ha, I guess so.’

Raon looked at the sky and stroked his hair.

‘I’ll have to focus on the other side for now.’

The good news is that there are no major problems with Sia currently.

Since Pedric had also said that he would look for a medical treatment method, it seemed like he, too, would have to think of various methods.

After gathering my thoughts, I lowered my gaze and looked at Gwangpungdae, where I was practicing.

‘I’m now accustomed to the level of master.’

Yua and Julius still need time, but all other swordsmen have become accustomed to using strong skills. It seemed like having actually fought in this war was of great help.

‘And…’

I looked at the instructors who guided the prosecutors and even carried out their own training.

As we saw a while ago, Runaan was continuing to grow, and Marta and Buren were also swinging their swords with desperate eyes as if they would not be defeated.

All three were on the verge of cracking the egg.

‘Experience is definitely important.’

Raon stood up with a faint smile. Now, just as he was about to begin his training, the door to the training hall opened and Rektar came in.

“ah.”

Raon immediately went down the platform and approached Rektar.

“…grandfather?”

“It looks like you disturbed me during training.”

“no.”

He shook his head, saying he was just getting started.

“There is nothing I can do here, so I am going to return to Seonggeomryeon.”

Rektar nodded and said that he would personally search for the soul stone at the Holy Sword Training Center.

“What are you going to do?”

“Hmm…”

Raon let out a low breath as he looked into Rektar’s straight eyes.

“When is the departure?”

“I plan to go right away tomorrow.”

Rektar answered without hesitation, as if he had already made up his mind.

“I will go with you too.”

Raon nodded. Since nothing would change even if he was here, it seemed better to follow Rektar and prepare to seize the opportunity.

“And there is one thing I would like to ask of you.”

“ask?”

“yes. This time, when I go to the Seonggeomryeon….”

It was when Raon was about to bring up the story about the request to Rektar.

Coooooo!

The door to the training hall opened with such force that it seemed as if it would break, and Dorian came in with a piece of bread in his mouth.

“My lord! “Did you hear the news?”

Dorian ran over and shook his plump head as if he had a good meeting.

“They say the comedian came to the front door and asked for an audience! To the head of the family!”
