Genius Gamer, Reincarnated into a Heroic Family Chapter 149
The Law of Strong Self-Respect (5)
On that road, Harang left for the Delta region.
Avalanche watched him from afar as he walked lightly up the snow-covered cliff, carrying his pack on his back.
‘The qualities of a hero… … .’
He was a being who carried a heavier fate than any human Avalanche had ever met. Who on earth had done such a terrible thing to that child, and who could have possibly put such a heavy burden on him, was so desperate to see his face.
But, that aside, Avalanche was able to catch a glimpse of Harang’s other side.
‘… … I don’t think I know it yet, but somewhere deep in my heart, there is a feeling of hatred.’
Who is the hatred directed at?
It was so deep inside that even Avalanche, who was very sensitive to emotions, almost didn’t notice it.
‘There is no such thing as a perfect human being. Is that what it means?’
If there is one tiny flaw in that little boy, who seems to be the embodiment of a hero created by God, it is the hatred he harbors in his heart.
‘If such a pure being harbors hatred, it will soon turn into pure anger and set the world on fire.’
I don’t know who the Guardian is that he made a contract with, but they must find a way for the boy to put his hatred to rest…
“Whew, I have to worry about humans. I’ve only lived so long to see this world.”
Avalanche shook his head, returned to the cave, and sat down.
Now, there was nothing I could do but wait for the boy to return.

Harang, who had reached the Delta Castle, looked around the cold, deserted interior of the castle. The castle walls had been destroyed long ago, so it was easy to enter the interior.
Harang, who was looking at the torn flag fluttering quietly, slowly walked inward.
“… … .”
There are traces of battle.
It was an old trace.
The corpses of Delta soldiers, all wearing similar equipment.
The corpses of mercenaries, each wearing unique equipment.
Their bodies had already turned into ashes, making it almost impossible to even identify them.
Harang entered the castle. When he reached the end of the broken and fragmented audience room, he saw that instead of Lord Gazakt, a mercenary was sitting in the place where the lord of the castle should have been sitting.
“I killed Sir Gesacht.”
It was Billed, a mercenary with the nickname of Eagle Commander. He threw one of the remains with his left hand and caught it repeatedly, looking into the distance.
“It was a long time ago.”
Harang silently pulled out Cheongwolheun and aimed it at him.
“It was a famous incident that no mercenary living in the harsh land would not know. However, you didn’t show much of a reaction even after hearing the name of Sir Gejakt. It was decisive evidence that you had come from outside.”
Thud! The remains of the Gezakt fell to the floor and crumbled.
Billed stood up, trampling on it, and looked down at Harang with eyes full of desire.
“This is a place where outside forces cannot enter without permission. Even if you were a great noble in the outside world, no one would come to save you. I was sure of that.”
Having judged it that far, what I had to do as a mercenary was simple.
“Even if you become a slave, you will be treated with great respect, so don’t worry. You will be presented as a gift to General Vulcan, who can be called the second pillar supporting the harsh land. Because of you, the long confrontation of more than ten years will end, and Glaesaga will devour this land.”
Woof woof woof!! A sinister energy gathered on Billed’s greatsword.
“I heard. You killed all the mercenaries that attacked you on your way here. I acknowledge your magic and wit, but they are meaningless in the face of overwhelming power.”
Aiming his greatsword at Harang, Billed raised one corner of his mouth.
“Will your strange magic work on me?”
“… … .”
Harang silently activated the Metiel that was wrapped around his left wrist and created it into the shape of a [Memory Cube].
The magic had already finished casting.
No further preparation was required, but Billed did not move as if he was waiting for Harang to cast his magic.
‘That’s over-confidence.’
No matter how easy the opponent is, you have to make sure you gain the upper hand when you get the chance. It was nauseating to think that someone who didn’t even know the basics of winning was making a fuss by achieving 6 stars as a mercenary.
so.
Harang decided to show him the best skills he had, so that he could use him as a cautionary tale of what happens to someone who is overconfident.
Hurrah!
“… … !”
A mixture of white and black flames blooming from the left hand.
Billed’s eyes widened when he saw it. Even he, a mercenary who had been through a lot, had never seen anything like it.
“That’s magic… … ?”
Billed’s expression suddenly crumpled.
As Harang’s eyes began to glow white, an alarm belatedly rang in my head.
‘Silver eyes…!’
Even mercenaries from the northern lands knew about the most famous clan in the central continent.
‘Kaladan!’
Why is Kaladan here?
Cold sweat formed on Billed’s hands.
Meanwhile, Harang spoke while surrounding Cheongwolheun with pure white and black flames.
“Bild, you made three fatal mistakes.”
“… … A mistake?”
“First. Thinking of me as a lowlife.”
Hwaruk! The flames that completely engulfed the Cheongwolhun burn fiercely, spreading their fiery heat around. The snow that had piled up here and there in the open-ceilinged audience room melted and evaporated in an instant.
“Second. No one was brought.”
“… … As expected of Kaladan. Even your snout alone shows the spirit of the world’s greatest swordsman. Even if your magic is a bit unusual, in the end, you can’t defeat me at your level.”

When I thought about it calmly, it was indeed as he said. What did it matter what kind of magic it was? Even so, the sword strike of a five-star swordsman would not be able to penetrate the strength of a six-star swordsman.
“Rather, it is an honor! I feel grateful to God for giving me the opportunity to fight and defeat the knights of Caladan and make them my slaves!”
Harang chuckled.
His warnings aren’t over yet.
“Third. You were too proud of your own strength and waited for me to use my skills. That’s why you’re dying today.”
Hwaruk! As Harang drew a circle with his sword, the flames spun around. Upon seeing this, Billed instinctively realized that he could no longer afford to hesitate and charged towards Harang.
The Four Swords of the Cold
Waves of Oath
“Eww!!”
A blast of blue energy from Billed’s sword surged towards Harang, destroying the entire castle as if creating waves.
The floor gave way, pillars crumbled, and what little walls remained were completely destroyed, falling to the ground in ash.
‘The sword of the bitter cold… … .’
It was a swordsmanship technique that Harang was also familiar with.
A visionary sword technique that only the knights under the command of Grand Duke Baela Raciallord can use. Harang, who confirmed it, laughed. It was something that shouldn’t happen in the middle of a fight.
Things worked out too easily.
Because fighting against strong people is so much fun.
So I burst out laughing.
‘Smile……?’
A moment that seemed like eternity.
As soon as Billed saw Harang smiling, he used a technique he had decided never to use again since leaving the Archduke’s side.
Hundred Years of Frozen Land
Crack, crack, crack!!
The terrain that touched the river of Billed froze, and where the ground was shattered, sharp ice formed and rose sharply like icicles!
Any enemy hit by this cold bundle of energy would freeze and fall down.
‘… … It’s melting?!’
For some reason, his cold energy melted and lost its strength before it could even reach Harang, causing him to fall.
Through the melting ice.
Billed could see.
The sight of Harang’s eyes, still smiling, dyed in black and white.
[Kaladan Dragon Sword 3rd Form]
[Taecheonhwaryongbi (Great Heavenly Fire Dragon Flying)]
A dragon is born, its entire body made of flames, and it devours ice.
The black and white glowing dragon mercilessly devoured everything that existed in this space, advancing violently and trying to devour even Billed.
“Ugh…!”
Kwaaang!! As soon as he realized that the explosion had occurred and all of his energy had evaporated, Billed hurriedly stepped back, but when he realized that there was no ground, he panicked and fell to the ground.
Thud! I tried to fall with great difficulty, but I couldn’t keep my balance.
“My, my arm… … ?!”
The right arm was gone. In its place was only a burnt mark.
He quickly stood up, grabbed the greatsword with his left hand, and raised his head. Harang was standing proudly on top of the audience room, silently hanging his sword.
“iced coffee…….”
The sun cast a shadow over him, casting a halo around him. Still, those pure white eyes were staring at him so fiercely that he couldn’t even dare look at Harang.
‘It was so high up there…?’
I thought he was just a kid. I thought I was looking down on him from above.
however.
No it wasn’t.
The boy was as high up in the sky as the sun. He didn’t even think of looking down on himself. It wasn’t worth it.
Just wait.
May the ones below come up and challenge.
As if… … he were the only emperor standing at the top of the world.
It was a strange thing.
That boy has barely been holding a sword for ten years, so why does he have the appearance of a world-class warrior with a history of fighting the best? Why do I always feel a sense of awe when I look at him?
dump!
As Billed, who had lost his will to fight, knelt down, Harang spoke with a pitiful tone.
“You betrayed the Grand Duke, and yet you are so weak-willed.”
Weak willed?
He laughed hollowly.
‘You can say that because you don’t know… … .’
Perhaps, I will never know.
How scared I am right now, and how overwhelmingly I am radiating my spirit.
He says such nonchalant things because he has not personally witnessed the audacity that makes one’s stomach churn and kneel just by making eye contact.
“you…….”
Billed, who was about to say something, realized that his voice was no longer working.
‘……ah.’
The world is tilting.
At some point, the boy came close to me and was looking at me with his big eyes.
Make eye contact.
Even though he realized that he was dead, he strangely did not feel unhappy or distressed. Rather, the emotion he felt now was closer to happiness.
‘I can’t believe this is the last time I’ll see such a beautiful sight… ‘
Billed smiled and closed his eyes.
‘Not a bad ending.’
