The Reincarnated Assassin Is a Genius Swordsman

Chapter 1313 'If it's that...' Raon drew a deep smile and leaped toward the Archangel Uriel. 'I can become stronger, and conversely, I can weaken Uriel.' Even if he couldn't capture Uriel for certain, he was confident he could obtain what he wanted here and then escape, as he operated Ten Thousand Flames Cultivation and Glacier to their limits. -Huh? Wrath opened his eyes wide as if asking what he meant. -What are you trying to do again... He swallowed dry saliva as if he was now afraid of what he might do. 'You'll find out if you keep watching.' Raon grinned and approached Darkan, who was blocking Uriel's sword. "Darkan." He called the name of Darkan, who was swinging his sword strongly, and tilted his chin. "You look like you're having a hard time." Raon slightly narrowed his eyes as he watched the cold sweat flowing from Darkan's forehead. "Hard time? Who are you talking to!" Darkan burst into refreshing laughter and shook his head. "It's been a long time since I've been this happy!" He twisted up his lips, saying he wasn't having a hard time, but that he was dying of joy. "Is that so. As expected..." Raon drew a faint smile and swirled the Divine Sword in his hand. "Are you the only one who can stop that monster, Darkan?" He openly praised him, saying that only Darkan could withstand Uriel's flames. "Kuhahahaha!" Darkan burst into maniacal laughter while gripping the eyepatch covering his eyes. "Of course! I'll block all of that guy's sword attacks, so you can fight or not, do as you please!" He strongly pounded his own chest, saying he was confident he could block Uriel. "I'll do that." Raon curled up his lips with an expression of having obtained what he wanted. -Ugh! Wrath trembled his jaw as he watched that scene. -T-That's the expression you only make when you're having wicked thoughts! He frowned his nose bridge as if afraid he would do something strange again. [So cool!] On the other hand, Evelyn let out excited breath as if she had fallen for him once again upon seeing Raon's expression. "Block?" One of Uriel's eyebrows shot up. "You'll block me with such pathetic earthly swordsmanship?" He lowered his voice as if his pride had been hurt by Darkan's words. "Fine. Let's see you try to block this!" Uriel said he would grant Darkan's wish as he brought down his sword blazing with red light toward him. It was a very ordinary downward slash, but the result was far from ordinary. Swooooosh! Uriel's sword had already reached in front of Darkan's neck before he could even blink once. It was like a sword that pierced through space to cut the enemy's throat, similar to the Supreme Harmony Steps that folded space while running. Claaaang! But Darkan was no ordinary swordsman either. As if proving that he had lost both eyes and gained new senses for a reason, he quickly swung his sword and blocked Uriel's sword that pierced through space. "Kuh!" Of course, there was no lack of impact as Darkan's hand gripping his sword trembled. 'If he had been even a little slower, Darkan's neck would have flown off.' Raon let out a hollow laugh as he watched Uriel's sword emitting red heat. 'The power is abnormal.' Darkan's reaction speed was also amazing, but what was truly shocking was Uriel's sword. It seemed like a sword strike similar to his own Spatial Slash, but its power and speed were much faster. 'I might be able to learn one more thing.' Raon grinned and stepped on Supreme Harmony Steps. He quickly approached Uriel like before and brought down his Divine Sword. Hwaaaaaaak! Once again, instead of Uriel himself, the flame of judgment wrapping around his body rose up and blocked the blade of the Divine Sword. "It seems you have no ability to learn." Uriel flashed his cold eyes and swung his sword glowing with red light, Apocalypse. "......" Raon didn't move even though he saw Apocalypse rushing toward him fiercely. -What are you doing, not dodging! Wrath waved his hands quickly, telling him to dodge quickly. "Well done! I told you I'd block the sword for you!" Darkan shot up like a ray of light and blocked Uriel's sword that was trying to cut down Raon. Claaaang! Darkan and Uriel's swords clashed, sending bright red sparks flying in all directions. Sizzle! Raon was watching the clash between Uriel and Darkan when he received a small wound on his shoulder from a spark that came his way. -Kraaaak! Why did you get hit by that! Wrath screamed, asking why he received an unnecessary wound. -Focus on the fight! One wrong step and your neck will fly off! He scolded him, asking what he was doing. 'Right now I'm...' Raon breathed shortly and approached Uriel again, bringing down both his Divine Sword and Demonic Sword simultaneously. 'More concentrated than ever before.' Intense flames and frost came from both swords, but Uriel's flame of judgment protected its master like an iron wall once again. -The flame of judgment learns too! Wrath gritted his teeth as he watched the flame of judgment. -Intuitive swordsmanship is fine, but attack in a different way! He frowned, saying that intuitive swordsmanship alone couldn't break the flame of judgment. 'No, this is right.' Raon continued to focus on strength and speed as he swung his Divine Sword and Demonic Sword, but naturally couldn't pierce through the flame of judgment. "Foolish humans." Archangel Uriel sneered as he thrust his sword toward Darkan. The thrust that reached its limit ignored time and space, piercing through Darkan's waist before he could defend. "Fast! It's an admirably fast speed!" Even though his waist was cut, Darkan didn't lose his smile as he deflected Uriel's additional onslaught. He focused only on his fight with Uriel as if he didn't care what Raon was doing. Sizzle! Raon was swinging his Divine Sword when once again he was slightly cut on the waist by a fragment of divine power that bloomed from the clash between Darkan and Uriel. -Ughhhhh! Wrath let out an intense groan while clutching his head. -Why can't you dodge that! What on earth are you thinking! 'Just wait.' Raon said he would soon find out as he slashed his Divine Sword and Demonic Sword toward Uriel's neck once more. Hwaaaaaaa! However, this time instead of the flame of judgment, Uriel directly swung his sword and deflected his attacks. Sizzzzle! Uriel didn't miss the opening Raon revealed and sharply thrust Apocalypse. Wheeeeeee! Raon urgently turned his waist to avoid the red blade, but couldn't avoid getting slightly cut on his thigh. "Hmm?" Uriel frowned as if finding such behavior strange as he looked at Raon. "What are you thinking..." He was frowning as he tried to slash his sword at Raon again. "Your opponent is me!" Darkan shot out like lightning and blocked Uriel's sword. Even though he had cauterized the wounds he received from Uriel with aura to stop the bleeding, he was smiling broadly. "What a vulgar fighter." Uriel deeply lowered his eyebrows as if he disliked everything about Darkan. "Fine. I'll kill you first." He spread his eight pairs of wings and leaned his upper body forward as if he would definitely end this. "Bring it on!" Darkan grinned and wiggled his finger. Rumbleeeeee! The sky was torn apart by the auras of the two absolute beings, and Mount Melvin began to collapse. [Aaaaack! What is this!] Azazel screamed while clutching her head, asking why such trials were coming to her. "......" Raon didn't retreat this time either, enduring Uriel's powerful aura with his whole body. -Have you really lost your mind? Wrath was about to smack Raon's head, telling him to please come to his senses. [Battle with Archangel is in progress.] [The rank of trait <Divine Power Resistance> has increased by two levels.] [The rank of trait <Blade that Cuts Divine Power> has increased by two levels.] The system sent a message that the ranks of traits related to divine power had increased. -Y-You couldn't possibly... Wrath opened his mouth wide as if he finally understood. -Were you trying to raise your trait ranks all this time? He drooled from his gaping mouth, saying he now understood why he did that crazy thing. 'That's right. That Archangel is...' Raon nodded as he checked the reward message. 'He'll become experience points for my traits to grow. After that...' He drew a cold smile and raised his Divine Sword and Demonic Sword. 'I'll have to cut his neck with those enhanced traits.' * * * Claaaang! Uriel frowned as he watched the blind swordsman charging through the Crimson Flame like a bull. 'He's definitely strong.' Though he had called him a bug, the human before his eyes now was one of the few martial artists on this continent who could pose a threat to him. Though he acted arrogantly, inwardly he didn't let down his guard at all. 'His senses have transcended human limits, and his swordsmanship has also reached the realm of mastery. However...' Uriel lightly blocked Darkan's sword and shook his head. 'His mental image hasn't recovered yet.' Darkan had his mental image devoured by Derus Robert, causing his Soul Sword to shatter. As if he still hadn't completely overcome that shock, a slight opening could be felt in his swordsmanship. 'He's strong, but won't be a big problem.' Darkan was growing even now while fighting him, but the level was still far from reaching him. 'The problem is...' Uriel narrowed his eyes and turned his gaze to the right. Claaaang! Raon Zieghart. The young human that Derus Robert said needed to be most careful of was spewing flames and frost to pierce through the flame of judgment. 'Is that him?' While moving for the plan of 'that day', he had learned much about the human called Raon Zieghart. He was a talent with the sword that no one could match throughout history, and a strategist who could even devour Derus Robert. He was a once-in-a-generation genius lacking nothing. 'Such a person...' Uriel frowned as he watched Raon's sword. 'There's no way he would just repeat such foolish actions.' Raon was swinging his sword with all his might right now, but he definitely had some other ulterior motive. He absolutely must not let his guard down. 'Still, first...' Uriel calmly nodded as he watched Darkan pushing through his sword strikes and coming at him. 'I should kill that human first.' For now, Darkan was still stronger than Raon Zieghart. Since he didn't know when Darkan might recover his mental image, it was better to deal with Darkan first and then figure out Raon's intentions. "This time I'll definitely put an end to this." Uriel emanated magnificent divine power over the blade of Apocalypse. From his snow-white grip, the technique of the heavenly realm's strongest swordsmanship, Heavenly Rain Star Sword, burst forth. Paaaaaaaa! The streams of Crimson Flame that bloomed from the sword's energy extended endlessly, eventually becoming a massive wave that covered all of Mount Melvin. Before the sea made of Crimson Flame, a single human was far too weak an existence. However, that human who entered the sea was no ordinary person either. "Uhahahahahaha!" Darkan burst into laughter loud enough to ring the ears and swung his sword fiercely. As if he had become one with his sword, he continuously split the terrifyingly pouring sea of Crimson Flame while wrapped in dark currents. "No matter how much you swing, it's useless." Uriel arrogantly shook his chin. "A sword is meaningless before the sea..." He was telling Darkan to accept death as he brought down his hand. Whoooosh! Raon burst out from behind Uriel, who was surrounded by Crimson Flame. "Hmph." Uriel snorted as he looked at Raon who appeared like lightning. "I was expecting you to come." He directly controlled the flame of judgment to create a wall to block Raon's sword. "Is that so?" Raon swung his Divine Sword and Demonic Sword toward the flame of judgment blocking his view. It was the same path of intuitive swordsmanship as before, but the result was markedly different. Craaaack! The flame of judgment that had been blocking Raon's swordsmanship split in half, and a long wound appeared on Uriel's chest that stood behind it. "Huh...?" Uriel had never thought the flame of judgment would split, and his chin trembled as he watched blood pouring from his chest. "It seems your expectations were wrong." Raon mocked the flustered Uriel and raised his chin. "This time I'll make a prediction for you. You will..." He glared fiercely while meeting Uriel's wavering eyes. "Die here."
