The Reincarnated Assassin Is a Genius Swordsman

Chapter 1347 "Huh...?" Krein blinked his eyes. "There's such a place?" He tilted his head as if he had no idea at all. "Ah! Is it that place!" Unlike Krein, Dorian widened his eyes as if he understood Raon's meaning. "Hmm, for this many people to fit in, it would need to be at least the size of a regular kingdom, wouldn't it?" Blade Queen Siera narrowed her eyes, asking if such a place really existed. "If the Lord says so, then it is so." Warlord Yuber shook his head as if to say Raon's words should just be accepted. "Then let's go!" Balder boldly stepped forward. "If such a place exists, there's no need to wait!" Like Yuber, he raised his hand confidently, showing he trusted Raon's words. "Good that it's quick!" Alice also liked it and packed her belongings. "Wait." Karoon blocked Balder who was about to run off immediately and approached Raon. "Is there really such a place?" He looked at Raon with heavy eyes, as if he absolutely didn't want to lose the remaining Zieghart members. It seemed like he wanted to confirm once more rather than being suspicious. "There is." The answer came from Burren instead of Raon. "I also know where that place is." Burren nodded to Karoon, saying he had been there before as well. "Ah! It's that place!" Martha also clapped her hands as if she now understood. "Yeah..." Runaan slowly nodded her head. "It's comfortable to sleep there..." She closed and opened her eyes, saying it was as good for sleeping as home. "Huh? How do you three know that place...? Ah!" Dorian clapped his hands as if he just remembered. "Come to think of it, others went there later too!" He scratched his head, saying it was natural that Burren, Martha, and Runaan knew about it. "Hmm..." Karoon raised one eyebrow, seeming surprised that not only Raon but all of the Light Wind Palace were affirming it. "I understand your concern. However..." Raon looked at Karoon and nodded calmly. "You can trust us. That place will definitely be safe." He said he understood Karoon's and others' concerns, then slowly turned his gaze to look at Rector. "Finally!" Rector clapped his hands loudly and approached Raon. "You're thinking of inheriting my position!" He said he welcomed it and hugged Raon with both arms. "Ah!" "Th-then..." "Holy Sword Alliance!" The Zieghart swordsmen finally realized where the place Raon mentioned was and let out exclamations. "That's right. The place we're going to is the Holy Sword Alliance's Holy Ground." Raon looked not only at the Light Wind Palace Swordsmen, but at all the Zieghart swordsmen and nodded. "Inside there, we can prepare for revenge without being interfered with by anyone." He said that the only place Zieghart could go now was the Holy Sword Alliance, and placed his hand on Heavenly Drive. "Holy Sword Alliance..." "Well, there are no Five Demons anymore." "That's right. There's only one enemy." "If we can get revenge for our family, we can live even in underground tunnels." The swordsmen nodded, saying they would follow Raon anywhere. "We will follow you!" The Zieghart executives first bowed their heads to Raon, and their subordinates followed by bowing their waists. "Let's go." Karoon looked back very slowly at the collapsed Zieghart, then nodded. He seemed to have somewhat finished organizing his feelings and completely turned his body around. "Ah! W-wait a moment..." Rector stopped laughing and called Raon to a place away from the people. "What's wrong?" Raon tilted his head while looking at Rector. "Is it perhaps not possible?" "No, of course it is! That's not a problem at all!" Rector shook his head, saying that wasn't what he meant. "I just remembered something..." He pursed his lips and let out a short sigh. "That bastard Derus Robert knows about the Holy Sword Alliance's Holy Ground." Rector furrowed his brow, recalling when he received the conference summons contact from Derus. "That would be the case." Raon nodded calmly. Derus Robert, who was foremost in thoroughness and cunning, would naturally know that much. "But he probably couldn't come directly or send his subordinates." Raon narrowed his eyes, asking how the contact from Derus Robert had come. "R-right. The contact came through a black hawk." Rector opened his mouth wide, asking how he knew. "Then it should be fine. Just as Zieghart sealed the Demonic Dragon of Destruction for a thousand years..." Raon shook his head while recalling the back of the First Patriarch who created the Holy Sword Alliance's Holy Ground. "There will be something that has been prepared for a thousand years." * * * "What the..." The Heavenly Demon looked back and frowned. "Why are you following me." He waved his hand at the person behind him as if he didn't understand. "..." It was the Death Sword Spirit. The swordsman who had been defeated and captured by Karoon said nothing and just looked into the Heavenly Demon's eyes. "All the bastards who wanted restoration have followed Derus Robert. No, that damned bastard took them by force, but they'll end up following him anyway." The Heavenly Demon ground his teeth while recalling Derus Robert's sinister face. "Because Derus Robert will move for the restoration that is Eden's wish." He shook his head, saying all of Eden's ghosts and monsters would have no choice but to follow Derus Robert. "I know." The Death Sword Spirit nodded while holding her waist, as if her injuries hadn't healed yet. "But why are you following me." The Heavenly Demon looked at the Death Sword Spirit with narrowed eyes. "I don't want anything like restoration. Rather..." He clenched his remaining hand into a fist until it twisted. "I'm thinking of killing Derus Robert who's trying to fulfill Eden's wish." The Heavenly Demon said he could never forgive Derus Robert and tightened his grip until blood flowed. "The life-and-death duel with Glenn Zieghart was my lifelong wish. It was a fight where we had to see the end, win or lose. But..." He bit his lips while recalling Glenn's final sword that had simultaneously sealed Derus Robert, the Demonic Dragon of Destruction, and the Monarch of Wrath. "I can never fight Glenn Zieghart again. My final wish has become something that can never be fulfilled." The Heavenly Demon trembled his fingertips, saying he had wanted to see the end of the fight even if it meant defeat to Glenn. "I too was thinking of achieving restoration, but definitely not in this way." He ground his teeth and opened his hand. Blood that gushed from his palm dripped down to the ground. "I reject any restoration achieved through mere cunning and cowardice, without honor or pride." The Heavenly Demon ground his teeth, saying that's why he would tear Derus Robert apart and kill him. "Leave." He waved his hand at the Death Sword Spirit. "I taught you only because of a contract with him." The Heavenly Demon looked at the Death Sword Spirit's sunken eyes and turned his back. "There is no master-disciple relationship between you and me. Go." With those final words, he began climbing the nameless mountain again. "..." The Death Sword Spirit said nothing, looked at the Heavenly Demon's back and his remaining hand, then began following behind him again. "What." The Heavenly Demon frowned as if annoyed. "......" The Death Sword Spirit said nothing and looked at the Heavenly Demon and his remaining arm. "Instead of following like that, speak if you have something to say." The Heavenly Demon rubbed his neck with his left hand and jerked his chin. "I too..." The Death Sword Spirit took a deep breath and raised her head. "I didn't want this kind of restoration." She bit her lips while gripping the sword at her waist. "There have been too many meaningless deaths, and there will be even more in the future." The Death Sword Spirit bit her lips while recalling the Ghosts of Eden who had melted away in the flames spewed by the Demonic Dragon of Destruction. "I will also stop Derus Robert and the Demonic Dragon of Destruction." She nodded, saying she would follow the Heavenly Demon to stop Derus. "Huh...?" The Heavenly Demon snorted while looking at the Death Sword Spirit's calm eyes. "If you come with me, you'll have to fight against those you cared about, you know?" "I don't care. I've already made up my mind." The Death Sword Spirit gripped her sword tighter, saying she would kill Derus Robert only, as quickly as possible. "That's a weak thought. If you don't have the will to kill everyone, you'll be the one who dies. But..." The Heavenly Demon looked down at the Death Sword Spirit and twisted up the corners of his mouth. "I like your intention to reverse the reversal of fate." He clicked his tongue briefly and began climbing the mountain again. "..." The Death Sword Spirit continued to follow behind the Heavenly Demon, but he no longer told her not to follow. The Heavenly Demon and the Death Sword Spirit. The two, who were master and disciple yet also not master and disciple, slowly climbed the mountain as darkness filled it. [...] Behind the Heavenly Demon and Death Sword Spirit, a very faint black flame bloomed. It was different from that of the Demonic Dragon of Destruction. Dominating yet gentle. It was a warmth that seemed to protect their path. * * * "This is..." Balder clicked his tongue briefly. "The Holy Sword Alliance main base?" He looked at the ordinary mountain and blinked his eyes as if he couldn't believe it. "I can't see it at all?" Balder tilted his head, wondering how the Holy Sword Alliance main base could be in such an ordinary rocky mountain. "It's not that mountain, but there's a secret space inside the mountain." Burren nodded, saying they would see once they went. "I like it?" Alice rubbed her hands together as if it would be interesting. "It's just like treasure hunting!" She smiled broadly, saying she had wanted to find such mysterious places in the sea but hadn't discovered any. "Holy Sword Alliance..." Karoon let out a low breath as if he still found it hard to believe the situation where Zieghart had collapsed and they had come to the Holy Sword Alliance. Since he knew there was no other way, he slowly breathed and calmed his mind. "Light Wind Palace and Central Martial Palace should move while protecting the people from behind." After giving instructions to the swordsmen to protect those who hadn't learned martial arts, Raon approached Rector's side. "Grandfather. May we go?" Raon stood in front of Rector and lowered his eyes slightly. Since Rector was the owner of this place, he had to get permission from him first before moving. "Yes. Let's go." Rector placed his hand on Raon's shoulder as if there was no problem at all, then began climbing the mountain first. "Yes." Raon followed behind Rector and climbed up to the middle of the mountain. Since he needed to know if the secret passage was working properly, he moved quickly and climbed all the way to the rock leading to the Holy Sword Alliance's Holy Ground. "Go in first." Rector waved his hand, telling him to go to the Holy Ground first. "Yes." It was the moment when Raon nodded to Rector and entered the secret passage leading to the Holy Ground. Woooooong! The barrier that formed the Holy Sword Alliance's Holy Ground began to move.
