Chapter 726
“You found it?”
Raon bent down on one knee and looked into the frog’s eyes filled with Merlin and Garam.
“huh. Below the Ravel River… .”
“I’m talking to you now.”
When Garam was about to explain, Merlin intervened.
“Raon. “Where are you looking if you’re not looking at me?”
Merlin’s voice was eerie, as if it was coming from underground.
-Queez… .
Lars grabbed his neck and tilted it as if he was scared.
“If you ignore me… .”
“Oh, Merlin! wait for a sec!”
Raon raised his hand towards the frog’s purple eyes.
“After I talk to Garam, I will listen to everything you want to say.”
I swallowed dry saliva and asked him to please wait.
“Really?”
A bright light seeped into Merlin’s voice.
“okay. I’ll promise.”
Raon nodded, saying he was sincere.
“good!”
As Merlin smiled and walked away, the creepy purple color disappeared from the frog’s eyes.
“Well, Raon is having a hard time too.”
When the frog opened its mouth, Garam’s voice came out again. He stretched out his words a little as if he felt sorry for him.
“… “It’s done.”
Raon covered his red face from embarrassment and placed the frog in his palm.
“Who did you find? “Tell me about your impressions first.”
When I returned to Sieghart, I asked Garam to look for Oma’s body, which may be under the river, and it seemed like I found one of them.
“It’s not a person, it’s a weapon.”
Garam shook his head and let out a calm voice.
“weapon?”
“huh. “It’s the sword of the red-haired man who suddenly entered the battlefield and challenged your grandfather.”
He laughed, saying that he had found a black sword stuck deep in the river.
“Holy sword training… .”
The only crazy person who challenged Glenn was Seonggeomryeonju.
“There was no body?”
“huh. “He wasn’t around.”
Garam shook his head, saying that only the sword was stuck.
“What is the condition of the black sword?”
“The blade was cracked, but not broken. “If I fix it, will I be able to use it?”
“hmm… .”
Raon chewed his lip, looking at the frog’s black pearl-like eyes.
‘Is he really dead…? ?’
The Holy Swordmaster is a crazy person who pushed away the leaders of Oma because he wanted to be struck by Glenn’s sword.
Since he was uniquely crazy among the sword masters of the Seonggeomryeon, it was unlikely that he would have left his sword behind and disappeared.
‘Besides, he received the head of the family’s examination from the front.’
While the other Oma leaders were running away from Glenn’s heart sword, the Holy Sword Master jumped forward to take a closer look at the swordsmanship.
No matter how much I thought about it, it was not a situation I could live with.
‘but… .’
I was concerned that Seonggeomryeonju’s sword was not broken. He only cracked the sword but didn’t break it, so he thought he might still be alive.
‘I’ll have to report it.’
The Holy Swordmaster expressed that the path taken through this war is different from that of Oma.
Even if he was alive, he wouldn’t be mixed up with Oma, but I felt like I needed to let Glenn know.
“thank you. “Garam.”
Raon smiled slightly and stroked the frog’s head.
“Chi, you’re friends!”
Garam laughed as if it was no big deal.
“By the way, Raon.”
He stopped laughing and suddenly lowered his voice.
“Go, masked woman. “Shouldn’t it be sealed?”
Garam swallowed dryly, saying that if he released Merlin, the world would become dangerous.
-You know very well!
Lars climbed onto the bracelet and nodded furiously.
-That’s a madwoman who shouldn’t be walking around without a leash!
His lips trembled, saying that he should never be let go.
“What are you doing!”
Merlin’s voice burst out again from the mouth of the frog.
“S-sorry! The sealing sound is just a joke… .”
“Why are you the only one receiving Raon’s touch!”
With a jealous voice, the frog’s eyes flashed purple again.
“under… .”
Raon sighed as he looked at the smiling frog.
‘Is this more important than the seal?’
Merlin was angry at not being petted, not even caring that Garam had thought of sealing himself. As expected, it was not normal.
“Get out of the way quickly!”
“Yes… .”
The sound of Merlin pushing Garam was heard.
“Merlin.”
Raon sighed and raised his finger toward the frog’s eyes.
“Garam is a lifesaver who saved you and me. I hope you treat me with courtesy… .”
“okay!”
Merlin nodded before Raon finished speaking.
“Garam. The girl is so c*cky. “I will be careful in the future.”
Merlin’s polite voice flowed from the frog’s mouth. It was a restrained tone and voice that could only be heard in the royal family.
“Oh, no.”
Garam’s voice was trembling.
“Garam. The right way is to repay your life debt with your life. If you want to kill someone, just tell me. Just cut off the head… .”
“doesn’t exist! don’t do it! Aaaah!”
He screamed and disappeared, as if becoming more scared of Merlin.
“Merlin. Garam, stop bothering me and come here.”
“I’m not harassing you, are you serious?”
Merlin shook his head and smiled slightly.
“What about the injured area? Are you all better?”
“My heart ached a little after reading your love letter. “The pain went away.”
She waved her hand, saying that the letter had become a panacea.
“How can that be a love letter…” .”
I don’t know why an ordinary letter saying thank you for saving me and saying I will support you in the future became a love letter. I felt more tired than when I talked to Glenn.
“What are you going to do now? I think it’s okay to go on a trip… .”
“Being by your side is a journey. “A journey of love.”
Merlin shook his head, saying there was no need to go far.
-Queez… .
In the end, Lars couldn’t bear it anymore and rolled his eyes over with a gasping sound.
“But there’s something I need to check before meeting you.”
Merlin’s voice calmed down.
“Something to check?”
“huh. “I want to learn more about Oma and the dragon’s movements.”
She calmly nodded as if she had heard about the war situation from Garam.
“You are no longer Ouma. “As soon as you show up, you will be attacked.”
“I know. I’ll be careful. don’t worry.”
Merlin laughed, saying that he would be walking around disguised as an animal like he is now.
“still… .”
“The Heavenly Demon might move.”
When I tried to stop her again, she brought up the name Cheonma.
“Cheonma… ?”
“okay. Tacheon said that it looks like the Cheonma will move soon. He’s been training his disciples for a while, huh?”
Merlin chewed his lips thinly.
“Cheonma and Tacheon’s goal is to give back. Return the continent to a time when it was a paradise for monsters, and resurrect the demon dragon. However, the purposes after that are different.”
She narrowed her eyes, saying she needed to find out the purpose of the Heavenly Demon.
“Even if I had a chance to come to Sieghart now?”
“huh. Still I can’t go. “Because you are more important than me.”
Merlin waved his hand lightly, saying it was no use trying to stop him. Instead of giving her goosebumps, her heart pounded when she said that you were more important than me.
“Then there’s nothing we can do…” .”
Raon looked Merlin in the eye and sighed.
“Be careful instead. “Because you still have a debt to pay.”
“You don’t have to pay that back.”
Merlin shook his head as if to tell him not to worry.
“Then it’s time to tell this child’s request.”
“hmm… .”
Raon swallowed dry saliva and nodded.
“He woke up from a winter sleep and asked me to make a bedroom for him. “To a warm, soft, spacious, and quiet place.”
“No, how can I suddenly find a place like that…” .”
“please!”
As soon as Merlin waved his hand, the frog’s purple eyes returned to black.
Open bone.
The frog twitched its hind feet as if asking it to quickly find a bedroom.
“Ugh… .”
Raon sighed and pointed to the land near the lake.
“What about here?”
Open bone.
The frog turned his head as if he didn’t like the humidity.
‘What kind of humidity does a frog care about?’
Raon frowned and moved near the flower bed.
“Then what about here?”
Open bone.
The frog shook his head as if he was caught because there were a lot of roots near the flower bed. It was a very picky amphibian.
Open bone.
The frog stuck out its tongue as if it was attracted to Bukmangsan Mountain.
“okay. let’s go… .”
Raon took a deep sigh and climbed Bukmangsan Mountain. By the time he returned to the annex, the night had already passed.
* * *
“Umm… .”
Glenn slowly lifted his eyelids. I could see the light purple dawn sky seeping through the window.
“Did you cough?”
Roen put down the towel on Glenn’s bedside and smiled softly.
“It’s been a while since I’ve seen the matriarch sleep for this long.”
Cheryl, who was standing as an escort with her back against the wall, raised her finger and smiled.
“What happened?”
Glenn wrinkled his nose and stood up.
“Have you lost your memory?”
Cheryl approached Glenn with wide eyes.
“Matriarch. “He almost ascended to heaven in the banquet hall!”
“banquet hall? ascension?”
Glenn touched his temple and lowered his gaze.
‘I think something very happy happened… .’
Is it because I slept for too long? I couldn’t remember what Cheryl was talking about.
“I guess I was so happy that my memory was erased.”
Cheryl let out a laugh as if it was absurd.
“You’ve been waiting for over 20 years… .”
Roen laughed and said that it was possible.
“Please stop and talk. “What happened yesterday?”
Glenn frowned at Cheryl and Roen.
“Master Giju. Raon finally called me grandfather!”
Cheryl twirled her raised finger.
“Hehehe, Lady Sylvia called me father.”
Roen stood next to Cheryl and laughed.
“Ha, grandpa… .”
Glenn’s chin trembled. Listening to Cheryl and Loen’s words, the memories of yesterday came back clearly.
[Mom should say hello to grandpa first. Now that she is her direct descendant again, this is the first time she calls her grandfather father.]
When I remembered what Raon had said, my lips naturally curled up, my heart beat as fast as it would explode, and my arms and legs relaxed.
Coo!
Glenn fell to the bottom of the bed and closed his eyes.
‘There’s no time left… .’
His body began to glow dimly once again, as if his soul was about to leave.
“Ah-oh! “Here we go again!”
“Now, we have to catch it!”
Cheryl and Roen rushed to Glenn and performed CPR.
“Wow!”
Glenn coughed violently and his body regained its color.
“Please come to your senses! Why are you suddenly trying to ascend to heaven?”
“Hehehe… .”
Cheryl screamed, and Loen wiped the sweat from his forehead as if he was horrified.
“Hmm… .”
Glenn cleared his throat and leaned back on the bed.
“It looks like we waited too long, as you said. “I felt like I had done my job just by hearing Raon call me a grandfather.”
He waved his hand, saying that he really wouldn’t have felt anything strange if he had left like this.
“I think I was especially touched that Sylvia and Raon sang with me.”
Glenn nodded, saying that his most earnest wish had come true.
“Unlike this ugly guy, you both grew up well.”
He closed his eyes. He smiled softly as he remembered Raon and Sylvia he had seen at the banquet hall.
‘ah… .’
Just picturing that situation makes me feel like my soul is melting. If I had been alone, I might have really ascended to heaven.
Glenn opened his eyes after engraving the proud images of his youngest daughter and grandchild deeply into his mind.
‘Your body is light.’
How long has it been since I fell into such a deep sleep?
Thanks to Raon and Sylvia, I had a good night’s sleep for the first time in a long time. It felt like the remaining internal injuries had disappeared.
“If that’s the case, you shouldn’t ascend from here.”
Cheryl shook her head firmly.
“You should see them get married!”
“What the Great Lord of the Heavenly Swords said is correct. “Didn’t you say that you still have a lot left to teach?”
Roen also lowered his hand as if asking for patience.
“okay. yes.”
Glenn smiled and nodded.
‘I can’t leave yet.’
Although Oma’s leaders have been seriously injured, the current peace will not last long.
He had to teach everyone at Sieghardt what he had personally experienced and felt.
‘Raon, Sylvia.’
Glenn clenched his fists, looking up at the golden sky that reminded him of his daughter and grandchildren.
‘I will definitely protect you.’
He stood up with a stronger will than ever before.
* * *
Raon stood alone in the training hall and used the ring of fire and anger at the same time.
Coooooo!
The ring of fire circling the heart and the anger blooming from the bottom of the soul caused an intense clash in the middle of the fight, as if they regarded each other as enemies.
I endured the heart-pounding pain and tried to unite the anger and fire rings, but the two energies did not mix like water and oil.
“Tsk.”
Raon clicked his tongue and lowered his hand.
‘It’s not easy either.’
-You idiot. Why is it getting so complicated?
Lars waved his hand as if he was pitiful.
-If you just show me the back of that lizard helmet guy’s hand, wouldn’t you be able to reveal his identity right away?
The guy frowned, telling me to tear off his gloves.
-Even if he had the regenerative power of an Elyos or a Demon, the scars on the back of his hands were not erased.
As if Ras was not a demon lord for nothing, he seemed to have seen the back of Derus’ hand in that complicated war.
‘He’s not that easy.’
Raon calmly shook his head.
‘Because this guy doesn’t knock on the stone bridge, but builds a new bridge and passes by.’
There’s no way Derus wouldn’t have noticed the wound on the back of his hand.
He will emerge with the wound erased in a way I don’t know.
‘So I also have to prepare a way to break his trick.’
No matter how Derus came out, we had to find a way to expose his identity.
-Humans are truly annoying.
Lars muttered that he would just slit his throat and that would be enough.
‘Let’s start again.’
Raon let out a low breath and spread his hands.
I tried to reconcile the ring of fire and the energy of anger again, but they still didn’t mix.
‘Is it impossible to make the Ring of Fire and Fury completely one?’
In this state, it seemed that even if he reached transcendence in the future, he would not be able to achieve perfect unity.
-If you can’t do it by hand, bring a bowl and mix it.
Lars chuckled teasingly.
‘bowl?’
-That’s right. If you can’t do it by hand, just put it in a bowl!
The guy’s tongue lashed out as if he were mocking rather than giving sincere advice.
But there seemed to be light in the mockery.
‘okay. Just make a bowl.’
Raon quickly nodded and closed his eyes.
‘It wasn’t the ingredients that came first, it was putting the dishes first.’
Without drawing out the ring of fire or anger, I took out the characteristic <Blade that Cuts Death>.
Wooooow!
The energy of the ring and the emotions of anger were captured in the white airflow burning from the grasp.
Cheeeeee!
It’s different from the time when the Ring of Fire and Fury fought and dispersed.
The energy of the red ring and the emotion of blue anger permeated the blade that cut through death, giving it a warm glow.
[You pioneered a new trend.]
[All abilities increase by 10 points.]
[The level of the attribute <Blade that Cuts Death> increases.]
As if I had been waiting, a message about increased abilities and characteristics appeared.
-uh? Uh… ?
Lars’ lips trembled as he looked at the message.
‘Thank you, Lars. As expected, your advice is never wrong.’
-What, what advice! This king did not give any advice!
‘I told you to mix it in a bowl. It worked because I made dishes.’
Raon grinned and raised the death-slicing blade filled with a mixture of fire and anger.
‘You are, after all, a generous tree.’
-Holy shit! This means that King Bon just wanted to make fun of him!
Lars turned into strawberry-flavored cotton candy and screamed at the sky.
‘You’re finally here.’
Raon looked at Gajujeon with a pure white glow in his hands. A dazzling light flashed above his red eyes.
‘It’s time to bring up Derus Robert’s name.’
