The Reincarnated Assassin Is a Genius Swordsman

Chapter 1230 Raon felt the enormous waves of power rising from the end of the North Sea and exhaled roughly. 'Two energies that have transcended the absolute.' He finally appeared...The Heavenly Demon. Glenn had been going up North Grave Mountain every day, saying he would call the Heavenly Demon, and unleashing the energy of an absolute. He alone unleashed energy waves that could collapse the sky, but today, Fighting Spirit rivaling his rose from the end of the North Sea. It was the appearance of the Heavenly Demon, the head of Eden and the one who competed with Glenn for the position at the pinnacle of the Continent. 'It's definitely different.' Raon felt the energy waves of the absolutes who had risen to the sky and pressed his lips tightly. 'It feels like it's tearing into my bones.' His whole body trembled from the absolute energy transmitted from a distant location. He had been shocked when he saw Derus Robert's full power, but Glenn and the Heavenly Demon were on a level one step higher than that. 'Grandfather's words were correct.' Only grandfather can face the Heavenly Demon right now. Honestly, he had thought that with just a little more training, he too could reach that realm, but it was a huge miscalculation. "Ha..." He let out a hollow laugh as he felt the desperate difference in Martial Prowess that could never be reached in just one or two years. -Ha... Wrath let out a hollow laugh while looking at him, not at the place where Glenn and the Heavenly Demon's energy waves were competing. -This king finds you more fascinating than those guys! The guy furrowed his brow, saying he really didn't understand. 'What?' Raon looked back at Wrath and blinked his eyes. -That Nadine bread geezer and earthworm helmet guy are standing at the peak even among absolutes, transcending Transcendence. Originally... Wrath narrowed his eyes thin as thread while looking at him. -The likes of you should never be able to feel it! The guy wrinkled his nose bridge, saying he didn't know how he had sensed Glenn and the Heavenly Demon's presence. 'Come to think of it, that's right.' Raon clicked his tongue briefly. 'I should be far lacking compared to those two people.' He had not yet reached even Derus Robert's realm. He didn't know how he had sensed the presence of Glenn and the Heavenly Demon, who were at an even higher level. 'Grandfather also said something similar.' Before calling the Heavenly Demon, Glenn had said that no matter how much Raon had grown, he wouldn't be able to detect his presence, and told him to try sensing it if he could. However, contrary to Glenn's words, he had immediately noticed that energy as soon as he unleashed his energy waves. In contrast, the other Transcendents in Zieghart couldn't even sense that Glenn was unleashing energy waves at all. It was a strange thing since the difference in realms wasn't that wide. 'Is it because of the Ring of Fire?' It seemed like the presence of Glenn and the Heavenly Demon was being transmitted thanks to the Ring of Fire that had risen to the Tenth Star and increased to ten rings. No, honestly, there was nothing else it could be. -Those rings are truly a damned martial art! Wrath glared at his heart where the rings were rotating with blue eyes. -Raising the realm of the soul, elevating the realm of martial arts, and even enhancing senses - why does such martial arts exist in this world! The guy ground his teeth, saying the Ring of Fire had not a single weakness. 'It's not without weaknesses.' Raon shook his head while feeling the ten rings rotating endlessly. -What's the weakness! 'It's difficult to master.' Creating the first ring is also difficult, but as the number of rings increases, it becomes harder to create the next ring. Even now, cold sweat flows when he thinks of the hardships of creating the tenth ring. -Hmm, that's true... Wrath had always watched his training from the side, so he acknowledged that the Ring of Fire was not easy to master. -If it were this king, I might have broken all the rings out of frustration! The guy clicked his tongue, saying he lacked patience and wouldn't have been able to even start. 'I should probably develop the Ring of Fire further.' Raon placed his hand on his left chest and closed his eyes. 'Since it's still not at its peak.' Even though the Ring of Fire had reached the Tenth Star, it didn't feel complete yet. Like other martial arts, it seemed it needed to reach the Twelve Stars to achieve true completion. -Ha... Wrath let out a low sigh. -It's already this crazy now, I'm already scared of how it will change when there are 12 rings... The guy shook his head, saying he wanted to return to the Devildom before that. 'Don't worry too much.' Raon chuckled and waved his hand. 'I might not achieve it until I die.' He was confident he could master Ten Thousand Flames Cultivation, Glacier, and all other martial arts and swordsmanship to their peak. But only for the Ring of Fire, he couldn't be sure he could reach the Twelve Stars. Honestly, it seemed even the First Patriarch of Zieghart who created the rings probably didn't achieve mastery. 'From now on, martial arts and aura, and even the mind... Hmm?' Raon was folding his fingers, about to discuss his future training methods. 'What is it?' Glenn's energy waves diminished, and the Heavenly Demon's energy waves began rising rapidly. The two absolutes hadn't engaged in battle. However, it seemed like Glenn's energy waves were being suppressed by the Heavenly Demon as if victory and defeat had already been decided. 'There's no way grandfather would lose.' If Glenn set his mind to it, he would absolutely never lose to anyone in this world. The fact that his energy was subsiding like that meant there was another reason. ‘Even if it’s not support.’ He wanted to cheer him on. Raon stepped forward and drew Heavenly Drive. He imbued the silver gleaming blade with the sky he had felt through Glenn and thrust it toward the black firmament. The sword Raon unleashed with all his might cut through the cold night air and rose to the highest heavens. The sword technique of Azure Sky Sword, with grandeur nestled within its sharpness, became a golden beacon illuminating all of Zieghart. Glenn responded to his cheering by momentarily unleashing energy waves that seemed to overwhelm the Heavenly Demon. His energy was so domineering that other Zieghart Martial Artists also felt that presence and turned their gazes northward. Shortly after, the Heavenly Demon's presence disappeared, and Glenn also completely calmed his energy waves. It seemed the conversation between the two absolutes had ended. 'How did it go?' Raon sheathed Heavenly Drive, which still retained heat, and clicked his tongue. 'It seems like the Heavenly Demon will accept grandfather's proposal.' The Heavenly Demon had always openly wanted a fight with Glenn. Since the proposal he had so desired came to him instead, it seemed he would accept it without much conditions. 'However...' What was that competition earlier? Remembering when Glenn's energy rapidly diminished and the Heavenly Demon's energy waves dominated the sky made his chest feel a bit uncomfortable. 'There's no time to be satisfied.' Raon bit his lip and clenched his fist. 'I need to become stronger too.' The Ring of Fire had risen to the Tenth Star, and he had achieved great growth by cutting down Derus Robert. He had achieved satisfactory results, but seeing the situation, it didn't seem like the time to be complacent with his current Martial Prowess. -Tiresome guy... Wrath shook his head in disbelief. -You have now risen to the ranks of the strong too. Just because you want to grow doesn't mean you can become stronger right away! The guy furrowed his eyebrows, saying he should know how to take some rest. 'No, I can become stronger right away?' -What nonsense. Where is such a method... 'It's simple.' Raon grinned and raised his finger. 'I just need to catch a sucker.' He pointed his finger at Wrath and brought up the reward messages he had received previously. [You have achieved a transcendent Achievement.] [You have cut down the soul of an absolute who will remain in the history of the Continent.] [You have completed a perfect infiltration operation.] [<Wrath> has acknowledged you as the greatest human.] [All Ability Scores increase by 150 points.] As 150 points rose at once, intense muscle pain came to his body, which could already be called superhuman. His fingertips trembled violently from the ecstasy and pain that came as his body rapidly changed. -One, one hundred fifty... Wrath chattered his teeth while looking at the amount of points as if he couldn't possibly accept it. -This is really insane! 'This is just the beginning.' Raon raised his trembling finger and brought up the next message. [The rank of trait <Spiral Power> increases.] [The rank of trait <Formation Analysis> increases.] [The rank of trait <Snow Flower's Veil> increases.] [The rank of trait <Divinity Born from Darkness> increases.] [The rank of trait <Wrath Release> increases.] [The rank of trait <Flame Overcoming Death> increases by two levels.] [The rank of trait <Blade of Death> increases by two levels.] [The rank of trait <Divine Power Resistance> increases.] [The rank of trait <Blood Path> increases.] [The rank of trait <Spirit Concealment> increases.] [The rank of trait <Heaven Kill> increases.] [The rank of trait <Authority Enhancement> increases.] [The rank of trait <Authority Utilization> increases.] [The rank of trait <Crisis Detection> increases.] There were fourteen trait increases alone, and <Blade of Death> and <Flame Overcoming Death>, which were related to Derus Robert, rose by two ranks at once. Like with the ability scores, the trait increases were also tremendous. -Grrrrrr... Wrath was looking at the trait increase messages when he spewed foam from his mouth like a crab. -Fo, fourteen is too much, isn't it! Fourteen at once! The guy shook his reddened face up and down, saying that even for such a great Achievement, giving 150 points and raising fourteen traits simultaneously was excessive. 'Just bear with it a little.' Raon shook his head while holding Wrath, who had become like strawberry-flavored cotton candy. 'There's only one left now.' He grinned and brought up the last message. [A new title <Avenger> is created.] [<Avenger>: Many people vow revenge, but only a very few achieve it. A title given to those who have finally achieved revenge. Ability: ???] 'What is it?' Raon frowned while looking at the title <Avenger>. 'Does it have an ability but not show it?' Seeing the title Avenger, it seemed his revenge against Derus Robert had been successful. However, he couldn't tell what that ability was. -Arrrrr... Wrath, who seemed to have already lost it from the traits, was just trembling with yellowed lips. 'Since my ability scores and traits rose so much, it'll take some time to adapt.' Raon clenched and opened his fist while clicking his tongue. Since his ability scores had increased by 150 points and fourteen traits had risen at once, it seemed even swinging his sword continuously for several days wouldn't be enough to adapt to his current state. 'I was going to train the Light Wind Palace kids after a long time, but I'll have to postpone it a bit.' He had given the Light Wind Palace Swordsmen a week's vacation and was planning to personally train them again, but first he needed to adapt to his changed body. -Grrrogh... Wrath, who seemed to have finally come to his senses, let out a murky groan while clutching his temples. -Now I'm scared to look at this king's main body. It really seems like the skin will be stuck to the bones! The guy sniffled, saying he was at the point where he was afraid of the moment he regained his true body. 'Don't worry too much.' Raon chuckled and waved his hand. 'It'll work out somehow.' He had planned to return everything he had received from Wrath after everything was over, but the guy's reaction was so amusing that he wanted to tease him a little more for now. -You damn bastard! You only receive, so you don't know this feeling! Wrath screamed and swung his fist. 'Of course I don't know.' Raon smiled faintly and held Heavenly Drive at mid-guard. Just as he was about to raise the sword above his head to perform basic swordsmanship - Whoooosh! Glenn appeared before his eyes along with rough wind. He couldn't detect him at all, as if he had torn open space itself. This seemed to be the true Martial Prowess of the Destructive King of the North. "G-grandfather?" Raon swallowed dry saliva while looking at Glenn's red eyes that seemed sharper than before. "I'm thinking of doing secluded training." Glenn looked at Raon and stroked his sharply refined chin like a blade. "Can you help me?"
