Chapter 436
Glenn’s bragging continued until the red moon had moved a thumbnail’s length.
“Originally, who you drink with is the most important thing, but since I was the first person to drink alcohol that Raon poured me for the first time, it was bound to be even more delicious. It’s not alcohol, but a drop of water from God… .”
“Oh, wait!”
Rimer clenched his temples and nodded his head.
“Because the only thing the family head has been talking about for 30 minutes is that Raon poured me a drink, right? Anything else?”
“Something else?”
“yes. It probably wasn’t all about pouring a drink.”
It was a chance to spend time with my youngest daughter and grandchildren at the most, but I waved my hands, thinking that there was no way I would have returned with only one drink.
“Something like bumping a glass or giving out food. Did you have a deep conversation? Nothing else could have happened!”
“Is that all?”
Glenn tilted his head, asking what else he needed.
“Turn it off!”
Rimmer hit his forehead with the palm of his hand. My whole body ached from the pain, but I couldn’t stand it because it was stuffy.
‘What do we do? Is that really the monster I was following?’
Glenn was smiling as if he was still in a good mood, his cheeks dyed red.
I don’t know why the invincible swordsman, who exudes an overwhelming sense of intimidation even in front of the head of the Six Emperors, becomes so small in front of his grandson.
“Stop laughing for a moment.”
“I didn’t laugh.”
“Look in the mirror! The corners of your mouth are poking at the ceiling!”
Rimmer pointed to the mirror hanging crookedly on the wall.
“Chemm!”
Glenn looked at his face in the mirror and forced his lips to dance.
“Anyway, you’re saying you’ve only had one drink?”
“I also ate pizza. A baby gave it to you.”
Glen exclaimed, saying that he had no idea that the boy had a talent for cooking.
“No, some!”
Rimer screamed and stretched out his hand.
“It’s done! Next time you have a chance like this, don’t come here just for drinks! You have to talk to Raon and Sylvia a bit and treat them friendly so you can get closer!”
Opportunities like today won’t come easily, but I don’t know again because I have a toddler. Next time, I wanted to restore the relationship a little more firmly.
“Hmm, human relationships are similar to martial arts. If you don’t step on the stairs carefully, there will be a problem somewhere… .”
“Then you die of old age! It just needs to be derailed like falling into a trance ten times in a row!”
Rimmer screamed and pounded his bruised chest. He might have to be sick for a few more days, but if he didn’t talk, he felt like he was going to choke and die.
“That guy from Raon is strangely dull when it comes to human relationships, so it’s useless if he doesn’t speak directly!”
Raon is better than anyone else at understanding the psychology of his enemies, but he is strangely stupid when it comes to relationships with family and friends.
When a slow-paced grandfather and a dull grandson met, it was only natural that the progress was slow.
“Um, I get it. Think about it.”
Glenn nodded, saying that if there is something like today, we will talk a little more and come back.
“There are some things I learned today. Raon likes pineapple pizza. I guess I should bring in some pineapples. About ten tons?”
“Hour, ten tons… .”
“Since you seem to like beef and lamb ribs too, I’ll send the chef in charge of grilling at Gajujeon to Gwangpungdae Restaurant.”
“Whoa… .”
Rimer shook his head and sighed.
‘Clarify that!’
you human!
Even if he just revealed that he was going to send his own chef for his grandchildren and order a ridiculous order of ten tons of pineapples, the relationship would have been smoothed out like ironing, but it was frustrating not to say it directly.
“What do girls like these days? I think I have to repay a child named Yua, but I don’t know anything about children. Maybe she should secretly give her a gold plate… .”
Rimer shook his head, closing his eyes tightly.
“Go now!”
I’m tired to death!
* * *
Sylvia raised her elbows on the table.
“Haaa… .”
She let out a deep sigh of exhaustion and covered her face with her hands.
“Are you okay?”
Raon tilted his upper body forward, looking at Sylvia’s hand, which was still shaking.
“huh. are you okay.”
Sylvia lowered her hand and shook her head. She didn’t shed a tear, but the corners of her eyes seemed watery.
“It’s not because it’s hard… .”
Her gaze moved to the seat of honor where Glenn had been sitting. sunken eyes. Various emotions seemed to bloom like the scent of food.
“I’m glad I did.”
“I’m glad… .”
“It’s the first time I’ve had a meal with the family head since I was young.”
Sylvia smiled softly like the moonlight, saying that it was the first time she had seen Glenn at the table since she was an infant.
“hmm… .”
Raon touched his fingers while watching Sylvia wet her lips with the drink Glenn gave her.
‘Are you that good?’
Whether it was because she lived as an assassin or because she didn’t know about her father’s existence, Sylvia’s feelings were not well understood.
But when she was happy, her heart felt hot as if she was drunk too.
– Tsk tsk.
Lars tapped his thick stomach and clicked his tongue briefly.
-You only know how to understand the psychology of the enemy, and you don’t know how to understand people’s emotions.
He said he had a lot to learn and gave him a pitiful look.
-If you go to the demon realm with the main king, you will also have a human heart… .
‘Now that I’m full, I talk a lot again.’
Since Raon’s flesh was transparent, he pushed Lars away and smacked his lips.
‘I wonder if I can set the ball up a few more times.’
It will be difficult for Glenn to come here again, but I hope that one day it will happen and he will have dinner with Sylvia again.
“I’m glad you prepared well.”
Sylvia smiled and looked at the ladies-in-waiting.
“Good work everyone, thank you.”
“no.”
Helen shook her head with a warm, knowing smile.
“We had fun preparing too!”
“I am just grateful that the head of household enjoyed the meal!”
The ladies-in-waiting wiped the cold sweat on their foreheads and smiled lightly.
“But when the family head was around, I didn’t know whether food went into the mouth or the nose.”
“I did too. I didn’t know the taste… .”
“Eating at the same table with the head of household, no one will believe it.”
“I don’t think I will be able to forget it for the rest of my life.”
They leaned back in their chairs and sobbed, saying that they seemed to be exhausted.
“Thank you to Lektar-nim and Muston-nim for matching the mood.”
Sylvia stood up and bowed cautiously to Rektar and Muston.
“It’s not natural since you’re a guest.”
Rektar said it was a good time and nodded calmly.
“Since you’re Raon’s mother, it doesn’t matter what you do!”
Muston, who still had a hard master-servant relationship, banged his head on the table, saying that it was okay if he used himself.
“Ah yes… .”
Sylvia was flustered and quickly blinked her eyes. She shot a fierce gaze at Raon as if asking what the hell did she do to that person.
“ha… .”
Looking at the shaking table, Raon sighed.
‘I’ll have to give him some education.’
It seemed that he would be free from the eyes of others only if he was educated to think like a friend, not a master servant.
“I don’t know if the head of household enjoyed it well.”
Sylvia lightly swept the chair Glenn was sitting on.
“You would have been satisfied.”
Raon nodded his head, showing a calm expression in his eyes.
“The head of household isn’t the type to lie. He must have meant it when he said he ate well.”
“That’s right.”
Sylvia smiled and stroked the head of the toddler who was chewing on the fruit.
“It’s an infant.”
“yes!”
The toddler raised her hand energetically.
“How did you come up with the idea of bringing the head of the household? Weren’t you scared?”
At Sylvia’s question, everyone in the restaurant turned to Yua. Everyone was wondering why they wanted to bring Glenn along.
“Your mother always said that! Rice is delicious to eat together! and… .”
The toddler smiled lightly and held up a fork with a pineapple on it.
“The head of the household is not scary. He is a kind person.”
He swallowed the pineapple in one bite and smiled without wrinkles.
“You seem lonely, so please play with us from now on!”
* * *
Lektar licked his lips bitterly as he saw Raon and Sylvia talking only about Glenn.
‘Is this blood relation?’
I know roughly how Glenn treated Sylvia and Raon.
I could understand and accept how hard Sylvia and Raon must have been and why Glenn made that choice.
However, I thought it would not be easy to close the distance because there was a cliff that split between Glenn and them.
No matter how much daughter and father, I thought it would be hard to get close easily because they walked down so different paths.
‘But it wasn’t.’
only one meal. Just by eating together, Sylvia, Glenn, and Raon seemed to have significantly narrowed the distance than before.
I hadn’t paid much attention to it until now, but I could see why people put so much importance on bloodlines.
“after… .”
Rektar let out a short sigh as he gulped down Glenn’s drink.
‘It’s half my blood… .’
I can’t say that.
It was so frustrating not being able to reveal my true feelings and not being able to tell my true identity, so I felt heavy inside.
‘It’s a relationship like a lie.’
I wanted to tell the whole truth right away and hug my daughter-in-law and grandson in peace, but I couldn’t reveal my identity right now, even for the sake of the two of them.
‘To be honest, I don’t know if I’ll be able to do it in the future.’
In order to reveal his identity to Raon and Sylvia, he had to leave Yeon, but Ryu’s last request didn’t seem to end easily.
‘It’s going to be tough. but… .’
have to come back here must.
I have to do anything to make my daughter-in-law and grandchildren happy.
He clenched his fists under the table and hardened his heart.
Rektar raised a glass that was still low on alcohol. Raon and Sylvia, smiling lightly, were reflected behind the flowing red wine.
‘do not worry.’
I will take responsibility for both of you.
He drank half of his glass and raised it to Glenn’s empty seat.
‘In-law. This time, Raon poured your cup first, but I won’t lose next time. At that time, the paternal grandfather comes first!’
Rektar laughed and emptied his drink, which was less than one sip. She laughed, but her drink tasted the best.
‘Let’s have another drink later.’
* * *
Raon came out to the 5th gymnasium early in the morning and warmed up.
I had to get up early because I needed more time for personal training to put the lessons I learned from Glenn and Rektar yesterday into my body and mind.
-Gorolong… .
It was too early, so Lars hadn’t woken up yet. From the ice flower bracelet, all I could hear was him snoring.
‘anyway.’
He laughed and pulled out his sword. Recalling Glenn and Rektar’s teachings, she swung down her mad sword.
The swordsmanship, which was sharp like a master sword sharpened by a master craftsman, continued to twist the wrist and produced delicate changes.
The blade of the Jecheon Sword scatters like dandelion seeds, bringing forth waves of swords. The endlessly fluctuating sword waves left dozens of scars on the floor of the gymnasium.
Even if it’s not the extreme of change, it was an achievement that made a lot of difference compared to the past.
‘next.’
Raon did not lower the jecheon sword even after he opened the sword with all his might. He went back to the first herbivore of the mad sword and wrapped himself in the magic of the illusion sword.
Whoaaaaa!
As if painting with a huge brush, the Jecheon sword spread and spread a thick fog of swords in the air.
It wasn’t a colorful sword like the Transfiguration Sword, but the fantasy-drawn sword had the same murderous spirit as the real sword.
“Whoa… .”
Raon opened his mad sword six times in a row and spat out takgi.
‘I don’t know if things are going well.’
I wasn’t sure if my achievements were accumulating properly because neither Glenn nor Rektar gave me compliments and kept pointing out my shortcomings.
I feel like I’m improving, but I don’t know to what extent.
‘The length of the sword is long and deep.’
It’s not as much as the strong sword, the quick sword, and the heavy sword, but I’ve been steadily learning the change sword and the fantasy sword, but it’s embarrassing to keep pointing out my shortcomings.
As I heard from Rimmer, there seemed to be no end to martial arts.
Chiyiying.
Raon placed the jecheon sword in the middle.
‘Then let’s use it.’
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the extreme of a transfiguration sword and a fantasy sword, the swordsmanship of a cartoonist. Hwaryeong. When I was about to apply the heat of a cartoonist to the Jecheon Sword to see how much the Byeongeom and Hwangeom had grown, the gymnasium door opened and Rektar came in.
“Are you here?”
Raon lowered the Celestial Sword again and bowed to Rektar.
“okay. Did you sleep well?”
“yes.”
He smiled and nodded.
“I know your vacation is coming to an end, but don’t overdo it.”
“I know.”
“Then let’s get started right away. Today, I will start with the Phantom Sword.”
“yes.”
“for a moment!”
As Raon took his posture and tried to capture the magic of the Hwansword in the Celestial Sword, Rektar shook his hand.
“Today, I will demonstrate first. Follow it.”
Rektar didn’t even listen to the answer and raised his sword in front of his eyes. As his sword spread like the rising sun, he drew an illusion of hundreds of swords.
“How are you?”
He smiled somewhere similar to Glenn’s and instructed me to follow suit.
“uh… .”
Raon swallowed dryly as he watched Rektar lift his chin, rather than the sword spirits disappearing one by one. This expression was also similar to Glenn’s.
‘I’ve just finished getting used to it.’
Why are the methods changing… .
* * *
“hmm?”
Burren tilted his head as he looked at the Gwangpungdae swordsmen gathered in front of the main gate of the 5th gymnasium.
‘Are those guys here for training too?’
I came here to warm up a bit since my vacation was coming up, but it seemed like they also came out to do some light training.
‘But why are you standing in front of the door without going in?’
I thought it was strange and waved at the prosecutors.
“What are you guys doing?”
“Shh!”
“Close your mouth!”
“be quiet!”
Runan, Martha, and Dorian shook their heads and sent a gesture to shut up.
“hmm?”
As Burren stood dumbfounded, a crane behind him beckoned.
“Stop making a sound and come this way.”
“Ah oh… .”
He nodded and went to everyone’s side.
“Look over there.”
Following the crane’s gesture, I looked inside the gymnasium through the crack in the door.
“With Raon… uh? Head of household?”
Burren gaped in surprise.
“Is the head of household teaching Raon?”
“that’s right. The Sword Demon taught it in the morning.”
Crane whispered softly as if revealing a secret.
‘Why does the head of the household want Raon?’
Rektar would understand since he had watched the swordsmanship of everyone in the Gwangpungdae, but he couldn’t recall why Glenn was teaching Raon.
‘What the hell is this all about… .’
Lately, I’ve heard that even the former players, including my father, couldn’t learn from Glenn, and I don’t know how things are going.
“ah!”
Crane looked around the gymnasium and then jerked his head away.
“In the audience room, the head of household did not injure only the deputy head. Couldn’t you teach me instead?”
“Ah, that’s it!”
Martha lifted her head from the crack in the door and nodded.
“It’s annoying, but it deserves it. Because he ended 80% of the Aryan family war.”
In the Aryan family, the entire Gwangpungdae struggled to die, but Raon suffered the most.
I didn’t feel any jealousy because I knew how he fought.
“I’m still envious, though.”
As Marta bit her lip, Runan crept up.
“Are you jealous of Martin?”
Runan tilted his head as he ate the marble ice cream in his hand.
“I told you not to do that!”
“I told you not to be naughty?”
“No, don’t use that tone!”
“I don’t like it.”
“This is it!”
Marta lunged at him and Runan ate the ice cream and ran away. It was a familiar thing by now, so no one cared.
“Wow, I can see the deputy leader getting tired too.”
Dorian fiddled with his stomach pockets as he watched Raon gasp for breath holding his knees.
“Even I didn’t know that person would have such a hard time in training. however… .”
Crane nodded broadly in agreement, then slightly raised the corners of his mouth.
“Isn’t something a little chilly inside? I feel strangely good.”
He murmured that he was relieved to see them struggling after watching them practice in perfect condition.
“Isn’t it just me?”
“I’m honestly cool too.”
Burren smiled and scratched his cheek. Seeing the guy who didn’t sweat a drop panting from exhaustion, her stomach felt lighter as if all the food she had eaten during the day had been digested.
“It is the same.”
Martha smiled coldly and nodded.
“That guy needs to go through the situation.”
She muttered that Raon would have to suffer a lot more.
“agreement.”
Runaan took a step away from Martha and raised her hand.
“I agree with the demonic woman this time.”
“You know something this time. Don’t call me a demon!”
Marta stopped laughing and became the face of a demon and rushed at Runan, and the two started playing hide and seek again.
“You should know that training is difficult, too.”
“that’s right. That way you won’t be mean to us.”
“If it happened like that, the deputy leader would have realized it too. It’s hard to train at different eye levels.”
“In the future, training will be a little easier.”
When the Gwangpungdae swordsmen nodded vigorously, recalling the hardships they had suffered so far, the gymnasium door opened with a bang.
Whoops.
The rough sand wind stopped, and the inside of the gymnasium was visible. Glenn had already left the gymnasium, and Raon was bending over like an animal, his eyes red.
“If you come, come in. What are you doing there?”
“ah… .”
“That, that… .”
The swordsmen of the Gwangpungdae trembled as if they had chills from the black steam that spewed out of Raon’s mouth.
“There is something I realized after experiencing it myself this time.”
He gently rolled up his lips, but his smile gleamed with an evil temper.
“As iron becomes harder when struck, people become stronger the more they suffer. It seems I have been too soft on you all this time.”
He let out a thicker, creepier laugh and snapped his fingers.
“I will help you become stronger iron.”
Raon’s flexible hand gestures looked like the bloody scythe of a reaper.
“We are not iron, are we?”
“Yes! Vacation isn’t over yet!”
“… Joe, sleepy.”
Burren, Martha, and Runan trembled when they saw the madness shining in Raon’s eyes.
‘iced coffee… .’
‘No, it’s ruined… .’
‘It’s not to make it less difficult, it’s to make it more?’
‘I, that human realized in the wrong direction!’
The Gwangpungdae prosecutors also shook their heads as if they didn’t want to do it.
“Gwa, it’s okay! I will go back today.”
“that’s right. I have a patient at home right now… .”
“I have an appointment with my parents… Huh!”
“Aaaagh!”
“Back, back! Stay behind!”
Everyone took a step back, but Raon, who had moved backwards, was blocking the road.
“are you okay.”
Raon tightly gripped the scruffs of the swordsmen of the Gwangpungdae, his mad eyes shining.
“Because it’s the first day. It won’t take long. And I can’t be the only one.”
“Ji, right now I can’t be the only one… Keck!”
“shut up.”
He punched the crane in the mouth and threw the swordsman of the windmill who grabbed him by the scruff of the neck into the gymnasium.
“Let’s get started.”
Raon pulled out the jecheon sword with a chilly laugh.
“Endless swordsmanship hell.”
