Chapter 288
Hit a rock with an egg.
Watching the Saihan energy knocking on the wall of Sangdanjeon Hall, I felt like I was actually seeing the words that I only knew as a proverb.
Raon let out a laugh.
‘It’s too weak.’
Did it fail to control the concentration of immortality?
As soon as it enters the body, it moves secretly as if it has permeated into the shadows and attacks the upper level battle, leaving no choice but to be immortal.
However, the energy of immortality in the elixir was weak enough to make Merlin feel that he had made a mistake.
Just as it is meaningless to hit an iron shield thousands of times with a tree branch, your mental power will never be pierced to this extent.
‘I can’t even do it when I first met Lars.’
It was absurd that it was a level of mental attack worse than when Lars rushed to rob his body as soon as he saw it.
-That’s normal.
Lars crept up onto the ice flower bracelet.
-If you, who had endured the wrath and coldness of the original king since his days as a snubber, lost to that kind of energy, the original king would have bitten his tongue and died.
The guy let out a snort as he sat on his forearm.
‘That’s right.’
Raon looked at Lars and nodded.
‘It’s not a matter of intermarriage… .’
My mental strength was too strong.
His mental power, which had been strengthened thanks to his previous life, was amplified through the Ring of Fire, and he grew even further after meeting Lars.
There may be no drug in the world that will break your mental power right now.
‘I can take a deep breath like this.’
It seemed that even if he fell asleep without using the ring of fire, the energy of immortality would run out and disappear without penetrating his mind.
‘There’s no need to do such a wasteful thing.’
Raon pointed to the door to Merlin, who was still shoulder to shoulder next to him.
“Because I have to practice. Leave me alone.”
“However much. I am a woman who knows how to wait.”
Merlin, with a strange heat in his eyes, swept his shoulders and went outside.
‘I’ll be waiting in front of the door.’
It was a very strange space, so I couldn’t feel the presence properly, but the personality of Merlin I’ve seen so far would be waiting outside the door. Not for protection, of course, but for surveillance.
“Whoa.”
Raon closed his eyes and let the ring of fire resonate. As the magnificent echo created by the rings spread throughout the body, the energy of immortality flinched and stopped.
Whoaaaaa!
When the energy of immortality tried to escape like a mudfish, it raised a cartoonist and blocked the escape mana circuit.
‘Where shall I look?’
I looked at the energy of immortality, trembling as if I was frightened. Although the shell itself was indistinguishable, the purity of the mana inside it was unparalleled.
‘I’ll be able to absorb enough if I just purify it.’
If you resonate the ring of fire that has reached 7 stars, you can easily erase the aura of infatuation.
Most of the energy in the elixir was cold, so it seemed like the balance would be right if the high-purity energy of immortality was converted into a comic book.
Raon smiled and operated the ring of fire in polarity. The pure energy that arose from the seven rings began to purify the morale of immortality.
Woo woo woo!
Each time the ring rang louder, the dark shell of the immortality peeled off, revealing the pure mana within.
‘It’s better than I thought.’
The mana contained within the shady aura of immortality was of higher purity than expected. There was no problem with accepting it as it was.
oh oh oh!
Raon nodded and led the demoralized mana into the flow of the cartoonist.
Mana, filled with reciprocity until just a moment ago, permeated into Danjeon with auspicious heat.
‘after.’
Raon let out a hot breath. Now that the energy of immortality had been turned into a cartoonist, it was time to change the cold air filled with the elixir into the energy of Glacia.
‘You don’t have to accept everything.’
Even if only the advantages of the elixir were harmonized, there were quite a few impurities in the cold air. If you accept all of this, it’s rather a loss.
Woo woo woo!
I used the ring of fire again. The cold air that was bigger than a fist was shaved again and again to melt away all the dirty energy. All that was left was cold air as pure as raw.
The coldness that had been the size of a fist had shrunk to the size of a fingernail, but this was enough. Because this small power has more power than the great cold.
Raon smiled with a satisfied smile and used the purified cold air as Glacia’s rule to set it in the Danjeon before opening his eyes.
“Whoa… .”
When I looked up and looked out the window, the sun had disappeared and the moonlight was pouring in. It felt short, but it felt like more than half a day had passed.
-It’s slow. slow down
Lars stuck his face in and clicked his tongue.
-If you were the original king, you would have digested it in 1 minute. Even all the filth that dwells in it.
The boy shook his head, saying he was pathetic.
-I acknowledge your mental system, but force is still far away.
‘I know.’
Raon smiled and nodded. As Lars said, his strength is far from lacking.
Didn’t you do nothing this time as you were caught in the gap between the strong? In order to achieve the goal, he had to continuously improve his skills without stopping.
‘thanks.’
Thanks to Lars, I was able to withstand Merlin’s mental attack, and I was grateful that he gave me calm advice, so I conveyed my honest feelings.
– What, what!
Lars shook his shoulders and hurriedly stepped back.
– You just said that! What do you mean!
‘what?’
-Why did you curse the original king!
‘Curse me, I’m so grateful… .’
Could there be such a thing as a curse? I just said thank you because I was really grateful.
-Cancel it! There’s no way a demon like you could say thank you!
Lars gnashed his teeth as if he would attack if he didn’t cancel.
-hurry!
‘Ha, I’ll cancel.’
– Whoa!
Lars let out a deep sigh and nodded.
– It’s not like you’re always playing. He learned a lot from you, so curses like that don’t work.
Raon looked at Lars with sad eyes. I wondered how he was portrayed in the devil’s head.
‘I’m really… .’
It was time to tell Lars it was a misunderstanding.
[The achievement of <Ring of Fire> has increased.]
[The achievement of <Cartoonist> has increased.]
[The achievement of <Glasia> has increased.]
[All stats have increased by 5 points.]
It was a message that by absorbing the elixir given by Merlin, the achievement of seniority increased, and as a reward, the ability increased.
– Me, curse! You didn’t lift the curse on the original king!
‘… … .’
-Taking ability points from students too, this terrible… .
Lars was now thinking that everything was his intention. no words at all As I shook my head in amazement, the door opened.
“it’s over?”
Merlin rolled up his sleeves and entered, smiling.
‘As expected, I was watching.’
Raon looked at Merlin’s excited eyes and chewed the inside of his cheek. It was clear that he was in front of the door as expected, seeing as he entered as soon as his seniority was over.
“What do you mean by giving me this elixir?”
Raon narrowed his eyes, hiding his inner thoughts.
“I told you. I am always thinking of you and for you.”
Merlin let out a deep voice and snuggled up next to him. She let out a laugh as she fidgeted with the thread protruding from Raon’s sleeve.
“My head is a bit blank, maybe it’s because I’ve been practicing for a long time. Let me rest.”
Raon frowned and touched his temple. A person who has suffered from a coma is characterized by a blank head. The wall of the top battle was broken and the state was completely exposed to mental attacks.
“Are you a little dazed?”
“okay.”
“Because it contains plenty of the elixir of cold. It could be.”
Merlin moved a little closer and met their eyes. She looked at her narrowed eyes and relaxed her pupils like her Lunan.
“Hmm.”
Merlin lightly rubbed the mask’s lips with his finger.
“Wouldn’t it be nice to have another one tomorrow?”
“what? also?”
Raon forced his heart to beat and raised his voice.
‘Can it be like this?’
I didn’t know if I’d give you one more, so I purposely said my head was a little blank, and I relaxed a little in my eyes, but that worked as it was.
“okay. Just one more. I’ll adjust the amount this time.”
Merlin pressed his face closer, letting out the scent of a flower he didn’t know what it was.
– You’re giving it back?
Lars widened his eyes in amazement.
-Why are you giving it again! Why do you keep giving elixirs to the guy you held hostage?
The guy shouted for a lecture, saying he didn’t know why.
“no?”
“Ha, I see.”
Being obedient to requests and orders was also a characteristic of noncommons, so he frowned and nodded as if he couldn’t win.
“You listen well. nice.”
“I just know my situation.”
Raon shook Merlin’s hand and turned his head away.
‘He too… .’
Does it look like a hodgepodge?
* * *
A rectangular studio with no windows. About 20 people were sitting in front of a desk under the soft lighting coming down from the ceiling, making accessories such as rings, bracelets, and necklaces.
Everyone seemed to be extremely focused, and when there was no breathing, the white-haired old man in the front got up from his chair.
“It is finished.”
He took the red ring he made himself and took it to Denning Rose in the center of the studio.
“hmm!”
Denning Rose examined the ring through his monocle and nodded in satisfaction.
“Master Karol’s skills are still the same. Aren’t you retiring too soon?”
“joy. Of course, the skill is the same. He just retired because he thought he would die without spending the money he had earned.”
“thank you. mister.”
“Speak like that. Because I can’t make up for the things you helped me with.”
Carol shook her head slowly.
“So it seems to be very urgent, right? Enough to call them all.”
He pointed to the people working in the background. All of them were famous artifact artisans whose names would pop out just by looking at their faces.
“yes. There is someone I need to save.”
Denning Rose nodded heavily.
‘Even if I use all means.’
Raon is a hero who saved not only the life of Denning Rose, but also the lives of everyone in Gran Seville.
He could have given up his position as the fourth successor of the black market in order to save the man who tried to sacrifice himself until the end without being pushed back even in front of the monsters such as the 10 Apostles and Merlin.
‘I have to save it unconditionally.’
While working as a black market branch manager, he saw and met many heroes, but he had never seen someone like Raon. He can’t let a man die who will do more good for the world than mighty arms.
‘I can definitely get it.’
It was said that Sieghart had a necklace that could locate Raon, so with that and this artifact for tracking, you should be able to find that location anywhere.
“Well, then it’s not time to leave yet.”
Carol saw Denning Rose’s trembling hand and returned to her original position.
“Don’t worry, I’ll make the same thing for you.”
“thank you. I will give you enough compensation.”
“Then did you think I would work for free?”
He smiled lightly and started working on the second task.
Denning Rose took the ring Carol gave her and stood up.
‘I should tell you first.’
I left the studio to meet people who were waiting for news of Raon more than anyone else. However, when I was about to go upstairs, the secretary came to me with an urgent face.
“A guest has come.”
“customer?”
* * *
Gwangpungdan gathered in the lobby of the lodging that Denning Rose had prepared for them in a village near Gran Seville.
“When will it be finished?”
Martha wrapped a thick bandage around her shoulder and rolled up the sofa handle.
“Isn’t that taking too long?”
Concerned, she chewed her lips.
“Denning Rose-nim is also doing her best to prepare. wait calmly.”
Burren shook his head with his hands together. However, his legs were trembling in rare cases as if he was also nervous.
“… … .”
Runaan was stuck in a corner, silently staring into space. Unlike other tests, she was not treated, so her hands and fingernails were still stained with blood.
“ha… .”
“Has it been two days… .”
“Damn it!”
“I’m dying of frustration that there is no way.”
Gwangpungdan swordsmen grabbed their heads with bandages wrapped around them. I wanted to do something, but I was desperate because there was no way and no strength.
thud!
As the words of the Gwangpungdan members gradually decreased, the door of the hostel opened and Denning Rose entered.
“Artifact for tracking is complete!”
She ran to the members of the Gwangpungdan and held out the ring in her hand.
“It took a while to increase the continent follow-up, but it will increase quickly now!”
Denning Rose’s complexion was as pale as that of Gwangpungdan, as if he had suffered a lot in the past.
“Start tracking right now… .”
“me too.”
Runaan raised his hand. His blood-stained fingernails caught my eye.
“I will go too.”
She strained her eyes as if to join the chase. There was a strong will in his purple eyes.
“I will go too.”
Marta stood in front of Denning Rose, clutching her punctured shoulder.
“Even if I die, I’m going to die there.”
The heat in her voice was so hot that it could not be broken.
“You don’t need to push yourself. We’ve already recruited the best experts on the continent. I’ll start right away. Don’t worry too much… .”
“please!”
“Please let us go too!”
“I can’t just leave Raon and Dorian alone. Even if we can’t fight, please help us find them!”
“yes. Please let me help!”
Not just Runan and Marta, but all the Gwangpungdan swordsmen stood up and bowed their heads in front of Denning Rose.
“hmm… .”
Denning Rose bit her lip and stepped back.
‘I know the heart, but… .’
They were cursing themselves for not doing anything when Raon and Dorian were kidnapped. Because they were disappointed in the helpless themselves, there were no words of rejection.
“Don’t embarrass the branch manager.”
Burren sighed and blocked the swordsmen.
“There are experts in tracking, but it’s just a hindrance if we wear them.”
“I don’t know what state Raon and Dorian are in, but I can’t stay still like this!”
“I am going.”
“We are burdens now! That’s a heavy burden!”
“That’s right.”
Everyone turns their heads at the sudden cheerful voice.
“uh… ?”
“This voice… .”
“Everything, Danlord!”
“Long time no see.”
Limer. He shook his hand as he leaned his shoulder against the door, his red hair tied up tight.
“You are very hurt.”
He clicked his tongue briefly and stood in front of Gwangpungdan.
“Da, how did Danju come here… .”
“You guys are there, of course you should come. It’s been a while since I got on the dimensional gate, so I got some motion sickness, but it’s nice to see the faces.”
Rimer examined the faces of the prosecutors in turn, starting with the three captains, then nodded.
“Burren is right. Tracking should be left to a master of tracking. you guys are no help It’s a waste of time.”
Gwangpungdan lowered his head at his sharp voice. The words of no help were deeply embedded in their hearts.
“But it’s also true that we can’t stay like this.”
Rimer rolled up his lips. It was a warm smile that he usually shows at the gymnasium.
“Your job is not to chase, but to raise your sword. Get ready for battle.”
“Come on, are you ready to fight?”
“We couldn’t do anything to the 10 apostles.”
“Eh, even when Merlin and the 10 apostles were fighting, I couldn’t intervene and couldn’t help but watch… .”
“I left all the burden on Raon!”
“I tried, I really tried to the point of dying, but there was nothing I could do… .”
Gwangpungdan bit his lip, spitting out the emotions he had only accumulated in his heart until now.
“You prepare for your fight. A monster will catch a monster.”
Rimer’s eyes sank into a dim light, as if they contained the abyss.
“Sieghart is moving.”
