The Reincarnated Assassin Is a Genius Swordsman

Chapter 1307 "You're going right now?" Black Market leader Roseline widened her eyes that had been deeply sunken as if she hadn't even thought of such a thing. "Didn't you just say you couldn't defeat Archangel Uriel?" She shook her head, saying going now wasn't a good idea. "I think the same." Ragged Saint Federick stroked his chin while agreeing with Roseline's words. "If it's still an opponent you can't defeat, wouldn't it be better to wait for that friend?" He slightly lowered his eyebrows as if suggesting they wait for Glenn to finish his seclusion and go together. "You speak correctly." Raon didn't offer any rebuttal and agreed with Roseline and Federick's words. However, he didn't say he would accept their opinions. -It's a bit awkward for me to say this, but... Wrath took a slight breath before opening his mouth. -Uriel is strong. He's completely different from someone like Sariel who uses tricks - he's a warrior type. He coldly twisted his lips, saying that if you treat Uriel like other archangels, a miserable death awaits. -There's no way you wouldn't know that, so why are you saying you'll go right now? Wrath frowned, saying it would be dangerous if he happened to encounter Uriel. "I understand your concerns." Raon made eye contact with Roseline, Federick, and Wrath one by one before nodding. "However, there will surely be a clear difference between going to scout ahead and going there for the first time later." If he encounters Uriel, a battle will inevitably break out. There's a clear difference between meeting Uriel for the first time at the temple Sariel mentioned and meeting him after prior reconnaissance, so going ahead to investigate would produce much better results. "Besides, from what Sariel said, there's little chance Uriel will appear at that temple right now." Sariel said that Uriel is currently moving very busily and probably couldn't go to that temple. Since there's still time left until the war that Derus Robert had planned, it was actually the right thing to search that temple now while they have leisure. -You're truly a fiend whose guts have swollen to bursting... Wrath shook his head back and forth, saying he couldn't understand Raon's fearless attitude. "Still, wouldn't it be better to send someone else?" Federick let out a short sigh. "Black Market agents could bring back information about that temple without leaving any traces." He bit his lip slightly, saying that even if it's Raon, it could be dangerous. "That won't work." Raon firmly shook his head. "That place is a temple of the Angels filled with divine power. It's different from ordinary spaces on this continent, so if ordinary people enter, traces will inevitably be left." He lowered his hand, saying that sending agents might actually cause big problems. "That's probably right." Roseline calmly nodded her head. "That's why I didn't send anyone either." She also had the same thought as Raon and lifted her teacup. "Then really..." "Yes. I have to go myself." Raon drew a smile filled with composure. "You really don't need to worry. I'll just take a look at what can be utilized there and come back." Since there might be a way to weaken the archangels' power, going to that temple was essential. "Now that Derus Robert's death is confirmed, the most dangerous thing isn't the Heavenly Demon who has revealed himself openly, but Uriel who is moving behind the scenes. If there's a way to stop him, I'd go to the ends of the ocean." "But what will you do about leaving your own traces?" Federick tilted his head, saying that since Raon doesn't use divine power either, wouldn't traces be left? "There's a way to solve that." Raon smiled lightly, saying it wasn't a difficult problem. "And I plan to prepare an escape route in case problems arise." He waved his hand, saying that no problems would occur for him in any way. "Well, if you say it like that, I have to believe you." "Yes. Since Lord Raon says he has a plan, it's right to follow." Federick and Roseline looked at Raon's calm gaze and nodded as if they had no choice but to believe. -Since you've shown so much, it's natural to believe. Wrath smacked his lips as if he understood. -Still, let me say once more that it's good to be careful of that Uriel. Ah, there's one more, but you probably don't need to worry about that one... He sighed, saying to just be careful of Uriel for now. 'I know.' Raon said he would naturally be careful and twirled his finger. -But what's the method to disrupt divine power? Wrath turned his gaze as if curious about that. '......' Raon didn't say anything and stared intently at Wrath. -Hmm...? Wrath blinked while looking at Raon. -Why, why are you looking at me? '......' Raon continued not speaking and drew a deep smile toward Wrath. -What, what is it again! What are you trying to use me for! Wrath screamed while trembling his blue tail. -It's scary when you smile! * * * "Raon. No, the Temporary head of house has caused trouble again." Sheryl whistled refreshingly as she entered the Lord's Manor. "Hehehe." Roenn let out a gentle laugh while polishing the throne, whether he knew about that matter or not. "He really became a sage and killed an archangel? And the new title he earned..." Sheryl grinned and stomped hard on the red carpet. "Sword Sage! A title meaning the sage of the sword! It means both an immortal of the sword and one who bestows good deeds with the sword!" She grinned, saying he received a title that really suits Raon well. "Of course, it seems a bit unsuitable for the Temporary head of house's age." Sheryl shrugged, saying it both suits and doesn't suit Raon. "Sword Sage. I think there's no title that suits Lord Raon better than that." Roenn nodded gently while reciting the title of Sword Sage. "Why?" Sheryl tilted her head as if curious about the reason. "A sage. That is, an immortal is said to be a being who can fly up to the heavens without any hesitation." Roenn calmly smiled and parted his lips, as if he knew the word immortal well. "We thought of the heavens as a place where holy gods and angels live, but Lord Raon was different. From the beginning, he knew that the winged Angels weren't who we thought they were, and he had no hesitation in cutting them down." He clenched his fist with the hand that had been holding the rag, recalling how Raon had cut down the Angels. "A swordsman who kills corrupt Angels, cuts away the people's hearts and suffering, and ascends to the heavens with dancing ease. There's no one who would suit the title of sword immortal better than this." Roenn grinned as if he already knew everything that had happened in Winten Kingdom. "What! You knew everything!" Sheryl wrinkled her nose bridge, asking why he had deceived her. "Hehehe. I never said I didn't know." Roenn shook his head, saying he had just smiled. "Anyway." Sheryl snorted and leaned her back against the pillar of the audience chamber. "The situation has become interesting. The head of house's new title is Sword God, and the Temporary head of house's title is Sword Sage. The real heaven is here in Zieghart, isn't it?" She chuckled, saying there's no need to go elsewhere to find gods and immortals. "Hehehe. That's really true. That's why I'm even more curious." Roenn curled up the corners of his mouth while alternately surveying the window where bright sunlight was coming down and the floor of the audience chamber. "How much stronger our god and immortal will become when they return." * * * 'This place is...' Raon smacked his lips as he made his way through the dense forest without sound or trace. 'Melvin, is it.' It was the first time he'd heard of Mount Melvin since birth, and unexpectedly, it was quite a high place. 'Strange.' -What's strange? Wrath blinked while looking at the mountain scenery. 'A place of this level should have had its name known, but it's not known at all.' Mountains usually become known according to their height, so it was strange that such a high mountain hadn't been known until now. 'Even the Black Market couldn't find it right away and had to search through old maps.' The Black Market's informants were people who knew the continent's geography like their own home, but no one knew about Melvin. It was only after searching through old maps for a long time that they learned Melvin Mountain was here. -Why indeed! Obviously because of those Angel bastards' magic! Wrath snorted as if asking why he didn't know that. -The Angels wouldn't go around spreading things that could become their weakness. He twisted his lips, saying the Angels probably used divine power to brainwash people's minds. 'That's certainly the case.' Raon nodded as he quickly climbed the mountain. 'If this were another mountain, it would be full of medicinal herbs and elixirs that should be gathered.' Even though he hadn't reached the middle of the mountain, medicinal herbs and elixirs that could be worth money caught his eye. It seemed that because of the divine power magic cast on Melvin Mountain, ordinary people couldn't even think of climbing this mountain. -Petty and dirty bastards! Wrath ground his teeth, saying the Angels felt no pangs of conscience when it came to manipulating humans. 'I felt the same way.' As Wrath said, thinking about the situation when Uriel appeared or Sariel whom he saw this time, it seemed clear that the Angels only thought of the people of this continent as mere animals. -But... Wrath looked to the right with furrowed brows. -Why did you bring that crazy woman! He ground his teeth while looking at the purple female doll hanging from his right pocket. 'Because I need Evelyn's help if problems arise.' Raon glanced at the doll and shook his head. 'You know. Evelyn is an expert in this kind of work.' There was no magician who could match Evelyn when it came to tracking, infiltration, and escape. Even Chamber, who was called an Archmage, and the Mage Tower Master had to step back to Evelyn in those areas. -Hah, that's true. Wrath nodded as if he had no choice. -Still, it's fortunate that she's quiet today. He sighed, saying it would have been scary if Evelyn had spoken. 'No, she isn't?' Raon firmly waved his hand. 'You probably can't hear it, but she's talking to me terrifyingly even now.' It wasn't a lie. Even at this moment while talking with Wrath, frightening messages were coming from Evelyn. [This mountain is really pretty. Shall we come live in a place like this later?] [One child, no. We should have five! I can do it!] [It would be nice to come on a picnic with the children. It would be atmospheric when the autumn leaves fall!] [Do you like mountains or the ocean, Raon?] [I like wherever Raon likes! I'll follow you wherever that is!] [It was so hard staying still during this archangel incident! I want to always be together!] [Raon! Raon! Raon! Raon!] Raon wiped the cold sweat flowing from his forehead and closed and opened his eyes. 'It seems to be getting worse somehow.' Even though he was deliberately ignoring it, since she kept talking to him like that, a fear washed over him as if Evelyn had returned to her Merlin days. 'There's one more strange thing.' Raon narrowed his eyes thinly as he climbed toward the summit of the mountain. -What's strange? Wrath tilted his head as if he couldn't understand. 'Even though I've climbed this far up, I can't feel any divine power at all.' At the beginning of the mountain, he thought it was because the energy was hidden, but even now when he had almost reached the summit, he couldn't feel any divine power. 'What is this?' Raon felt a strange uneasiness and quickly used footwork to leap up to the summit of Melvin Mountain. 'The temple...' He deeply furrowed his brow even before setting foot on the summit of the mountain. 'It's not there!' In the place where Sariel had confidently said there was a temple of the Angels, there were only trees with all their leaves fallen and completely dried up, and rocks cracked by time.
