Episode 1024
“Okay. Then let’s disband.”
Glenn waved his hand, his complexion smooth and shiny, as if he had looked thirty years younger.
“I was wondering why you suddenly called me, but I guess there was a reason.”
“That’s right! I never imagined that I would be able to form an alliance with Shinju Oryeong in just one day.”
“You even awakened the Comedian and the Evil Sword Master. What kind of abilities are they?”
“There’s a reason I’m the youngest Jeonju-doer ever. Even if I start lining up now, I think I’ll be late.”
The executives glanced at Raon and then left the audience room.
“My nephew never ceases to amaze me every time I see him!”
Balder patted him on the shoulder, saying, “Excellent.”
“You’ve done a great job. Thank you for your hard work.”
Denier also smiled and gave a belated applause.
“Let’s eat together later!”
Balder told them to come to Jinmujeon because he was going to hold a banquet, and then he left Gajujeon with Denier.
“… … .”
Raon narrowed his eyes as he recalled Denier’s face, which had been smiling softly.
‘I think the person has changed.’
Before, I felt an unknown darkness and a sense of insecurity from Denier, but now, just like Balder, I just felt a warm aura. I really don’t know what kind of person he is.
“Ah! That guy. No, I told you that you should have brought Gwangpungjeonju unconditionally in the selection ceremony… .”
Serena, the daughter of the public swordsman, clicked her tongue for a long time, saying that she still felt regretful.
“Can you do that? That damn gambler must have grabbed Raon’s trouser leg by any means necessary.”
Cheryl waved her hand, saying that Laon’s affiliation would never have changed because of Limer.
“That’s right. You’ve been aiming for it for a long time.”
Roendo smiled as if he was reminded of Limer and saw Serena and the remaining executives off.
“Phew… .”
Raon let out a heavy breath as he looked around the audience room where he and Glenn were left alone again.
‘I’m tired.’
Telling the same story over and over again, and the second time while receiving the attention of the family’s executives, I began to feel mentally exhausted.
‘It’s fortunate that Karun and Alice aren’t here.’
The two of them were practicing together and couldn’t come here, but if they had come, they would have been even more tired because of the intense gaze.
“Good job.”
Glenn nodded with a satisfied smile. Judging by the brightening glow on his face, he seemed genuinely happy.
“You must be tired, so let’s go back…”
“There’s something I’d like to ask you.”
Before Raon stepped back, he stepped forward and said he had a question.
“You can ask not one, but ten questions.”
Glenn’s voice spread like a warm welcome, as if he was ready to answer any question.
-No, has the person changed?
Lars let out a gasp of disbelief.
-You weren’t originally that kind of inspirational person!
The guy frowned, wondering where his usual curt speech had gone.
‘I don’t know either… .’
Raon let out a short sigh.
‘I think he changed like that after saving his older sister…’
I still don’t know if he was like that from the beginning and just endured it, or if he had an emotional awakening after meeting Sia and Edgar.
“The comical emperor and the evil sword master awakened while sparring with me, and I believe that it was not a coincidence, but that it was possible because I had reached the realm of the mind sword.”
Raon looked at Glenn, who was leaning back from the throne, and put both hands together in front of him.
“Grandfather, have you ever felt any changes physically or mentally since you reached the realm of the mind sword?”
He had developed the ability to use the phone, but he had yet to figure out how to use it properly, so he wanted to ask Glenn about it.
“As you said, it is certain that your soul has had a great influence on the minds of the comic emperor and the evil sword master who are suffering from the same demon.”
Glenn laughed, saying he had the same thought.
“The sword of the mind is an absolute martial art that sharpens your own soul and cuts down the souls of your enemies. However, since you have to use all of your soul to sharpen the sword of the mind, it is not easy to influence others.”
He shook his head, saying that he had never experienced anything like it.
“Then why am I…?”
“As I said before, you have a soul that is too great to be matched by your current power. Even after creating a heart sword that matches your realm, the remaining soul seems to have a positive influence on the comical emperor and the evil sword master.”
Glenn put his hand down, saying that it seemed like there could be no other reason.
“It’s strange. Usually, when you reach a high level at a young age, your soul level should be small, but compared to me back then, it’s overwhelmingly large.”
He tilted his chin, saying that it was difficult to understand with his common sense.
“Maybe it’s because I’ve gone through battles and experiences that no one else has ever had to go through. Either way, it’s a good thing.”
Glenn leaned back on the throne and said congratulations.
“It’s good to help others develop their ignorance, but….”
He tapped the broken armrests of the throne with his fingers.
“Don’t neglect to sharpen your own sword. Unlike mine, your heart’s sword can grow infinitely.”
Glenn smiled warmly, saying he was looking forward to seeing his own sword.
“I will keep that in mind.”
Raon bowed his head politely to Glenn.
“You must be tired, so go back.”
“Yes. Okay.”

I walked backwards out of the audience room without turning my back to Glenn, who was laughing heartily.
-Let’s go back quickly!
Before Lars could even get out of the house, he grabbed his sleeve and shook it.
-I’m hungry, let’s go home and eat first!
The boy shook his head, asking for more food to be provided, as he had not eaten properly while in Varenne.
“Before that, let me do something.”
Instead of returning to the annex right away, Raon whistled in front of the main building.
Beep!
Not long after the whistle blew, a young swallow landed on his palm with a soft cry from the sky.
“How have you been?”
Raon smiled and patted the young swallow’s head.
Beep.
The swallow raised its leg and squeaked as if it was having a good time.
“I think he was a little hurt, but I’m glad he’s better now.”
After Raon placed the swallow on his shoulder, he took out a white piece of paper from his bosom and began to write a letter.
“Please take care of me.”
After writing the letter, he tied it to a swallow’s leg and sent it flying into the sky.
Beep!
The young swallow circled over his head as if to tell him not to worry, then quickly flew south.
-Did you send it to your inspiration?
Lass nodded, as if asking if it was a letter to Lektar.
‘Looking at your reply, it seems like you liked my letter.’
Raon laughed, saying that he probably would have to keep sending letters in the future.
-You must be annoyed too.
Lars clicked his tongue briefly.
-Because there are two elderly people who have to be taken care of.
‘No, I like it.’
Raon shook his head firmly.
‘Because having one is better than having nothing.’
Unlike my previous life where I had no relatives or acquaintances, I now had a lot more people to take care of, but more than that, my heart was warm and happy.
‘Let’s go back to the annex.’
He smiled and put his hand on Lars’ head.
‘I’ll take care of you too.’
-Oh! Then bring me beef, pork, lamb, chicken, grilled and fried, and tuna on pineapple pizza and shrimp pasta… .
‘I’m suddenly feeling annoyed.’
Raon shook his head as he watched Las endlessly mumbling through the menu.
‘I guess I’ll have to exclude you from the list of people I need to take care of.’
-why!

“If you’ve said everything, then go.”
As soon as the meeting was over, the White Blood Cult leader snorted, opened the door, and disappeared.
“I’m going to go now too.”
Rector took a quick sip of his drink and sat up.
“Thank you for coming here, Your Majesty the Holy Sword.”
Derus bowed his head politely to Rektar.
“As I said, I would like you to hide yourself and absorb the surrounding forces one by one. I think that way, no one will be able to detect you.”
He smiled gently, asking me to pay attention to the part he had mentioned at the meeting.
“Don’t worry.”
Rectar nodded as he walked to the door.
‘He’s a creepy guy.’
When I saw him say something like that while visiting the holy place of Seonggeomryeon, which no one knew about, as if it were a tourist attraction, I felt a heat rising inside me.
That guy was a monster, both physically and mentally.
“I know.”
“Oh, one more thing.”
As Rector opened the doorknob and tried to leave, Derus raised his hand.
“Even if you have close acquaintances in Shenzhou, don’t make any suggestions for an alliance. Those two are already on the side of the Emperor.”
Derus shook his head as if it was too late to move.
“The new god?”
Rector swallowed dryly and looked back at Derus.
“Yes. It’s over, so don’t worry about it.”
Delus was neither angry nor embarrassed when he learned that the Shen Zhou Ling, who was right under the Emperor, was on the Emperor’s side.
I don’t know if what he said was true or if he was just trying to test himself, but just looking into that man’s calm eyes sent shivers down my spine.
“…i get it.”
Rector forced himself to hide his nervous expression and left the conference room.
As we went back out onto the path where the white light was flashing, we could see the mountain leading to Seonggeomryun.
‘Now you’re openly revealing that you know the location of the Holy Sword.’
When I went in, the door opened far away from this place, but seeing that it was returned right in front of the mountain, it seemed like Delus was protesting that he knew everything about the Holy Sword Training.
‘What an unlucky guy.’
Lektar let out a heavy sigh and passed through the cave into the Holy Land of the Holy Sword.
“Master!”
Muston, who was sweeping the yard, put down his broom and came towards him.
“He got a letter!”
He handed me a white piece of paper, saying that Raon had sent him another letter.
“okay?”
Rectar felt the damp aura of Derus that had been weighing on his shoulders disappear as if it had been washed away, and he received the letter sent by Raon.
“Hmm….”
However, his face darkened as he read the letter.
“S, Master? What’s the problem?”
Muston swallowed dryly as he looked at Rectar’s tense face.
“They say Raon has formed an alliance with Shinjuoryeong.”
Rector crumpled the letter slightly and bared his teeth.
“Yes? That’s a good thing. Why are you making that face…?”
Muston blinked as if he didn’t understand.
“Yes. It is a happy thing, just as you said. But… .”
Rector bit his lip deeply with his white teeth.
“Derrus already knew about this.”
When I recalled what Delus had said before returning to the Holy Sword Training Center, a chill ran down my entire body.
‘How much does that monster know?’
The thought that he was more and more dangerous began to ingrain itself into his mind like a thorn.
“ah….”
Muston also seemed to understand what I meant and let out a gasp.
“Then, please contact Raon!”
He brought some stationery and a pen, saying that he would write a letter right away.
“No, I have to go and tell you about these things myself. I also have things to show you.”
Rector shook his head, remembering the Whizou he had kept in his subspace pocket.
“Oh, I guess so.”
Muston let out a low groan as he remembered the white hawk of Derus catching swallows.
‘Derrus Robert… .’
Rector clenched his fists as he recalled Derus’ always relaxed face.
‘Is this even human?’
In terms of speech, state of mind, and even strength, everything was on a different level from ordinary people.
Especially, those calm eyes that seemed to read one’s own soul were breathtaking to look at.
“Then shall we prepare to depart for Sieghart right away?”
Muston licked his lips and said, “Let’s get moving right away.”
“No, there’s something I have to do before I go.”
Rektar shook his head firmly. He looked at the mountains rising in the distance and took a deep breath.
“We need to find someone who can stop Derus Robert.”
***
Raon stood on the platform and looked at the Gwangpungjeon inspectors lined up in the five martial arts fields.
“What kind of training are we doing today that you asked us to gather here so early in the morning?”
Martha stamped her foot as if to say, “If we’re going to start, let’s do it quickly.”
“Hwaaam… .”
Runaan barely made it to bed, but he yawned and rubbed his eyes as if he was lacking sleep.
“Don’t rush her. She’ll do it on her own.”
Burren folded his arms, telling her to wait for Jeonju’s intentions.
“Did you see the scene where the comic artist and the evil sword master awaken while sparring with me this time?”
Raon stood at the end of the stage and nodded his chin.
“I saw it! I didn’t know that even those transcendent beings would suddenly enter a state of nothingness!”
Crane nodded vigorously, saying that it was amazing.
“It was amazing….”
Runaan blinked, saying it was the first time he had seen it.
“Why don’t I have that kind of luck?”
Martha chewed her lips deeply, perhaps envious of the comedian and the evil swordsman.
“Actually, that’s not a coincidence.”
Raon shook his head at the Gwangpungjeon inspectors who were talking about that matter.
“It’s not a coincidence?”
“What does that mean?”
Trevin and Martha both raised their heads at the same time.
“The Lord said that my soul, which entered the mind sword, began to have a positive influence on others.”
Raon explained the contents of the special trait <Spiritual Phone Call> to the Gwangpungjeon Inspectors by quoting Glenn’s words.
“That means that not only the comics and the evil swordsman, but also you can awaken.”
He nodded, saying that like the two people, one could quickly reach the state of no learning by entering a state of no-self.
“Excuse me?”
“How do you do it?”
“I will do it no matter what!”
The Gwangpungjeon inspectors raised their hands and raised their voices roughly, as if they were shocked at the thought that they could fall into a state of trance.
“I’ll do it no matter what!”
Martha clenched her fists, ready to participate in anything.
“… … .”
Luna nodded slightly as she looked at Martha.
“Actually, I don’t really know what to do. It’s just that…”
Raon smiled and turned his wrist.
“Ugh… .”
Dorian felt something and his mouth fell shut, his eyes trembling in fear.
“If we keep going like this, like a comic book and an evil swordsman, won’t things work out somehow?”
Raon came down from the stage with a cool smile.
“yes…?”
“No, you even know the mind sword, so why are you so ignorant?”
“It’s not even a duel, what are you talking about…?”
The Gwangpungjeon inspectors shook their chins as if it was something they had never even thought of.
“Let’s get started. We have plenty of time. For now… .”
Raon raised his finger and gestured to the crane, which was flapping like a freshly caught fish.
“Unique crane department… .”
“I’ll go first. Please.”
Martha stepped forward towards Crane, who had turned pale, and drew her sword.
“…good.”
Raon twisted his lips as he looked at Martha with serious eyes.
“It won’t take long anyway.”
***
The sun, which had been rising toward the center of the sky, began to sink, and a crimson sunset appeared.
The inspectors who had been standing in the training ground were lying on the floor like the setting sun, retching.
“Ugh… .”
“Hey, it’s worse than usual!”
“It wasn’t really a duel, it was a fight….”
“This is one-sided violence!”
“No one has awakened….”
The whirlwind inspectors were on the floor, screaming that it was too much.
“hmm….”
Raon put down the Jecheon Sword in his hand and licked his lips briefly.
‘I don’t know how to use the phone.’
From morning till evening, I sparred with the Gwangpungjeon Inspectors and tried to awaken their potential, but from Martha to Dorian, not a single one of them fell into a state of emptiness.
-What kind of sparring is that!
Lars frowned as if he found it absurd.
-You didn’t just unilaterally beat me up! You just said it was stress relief!
The guy shook his head, telling me to speak properly.
‘Anyway, I tried.’
Raon smirked and put the Jecheon Sword on his waist.
‘I guess I’ll stop here for today.’
The inspectors had been pounding him so hard that he was barely able to move, so it seemed like it would never work anymore.
“Tomorrow again… .”
It was when Raon waved his hand, telling her to stop resting.
“continue….”
Martha used her sword as a cane to raise herself up.
“Please continue.”
She raised her sword, saying she wasn’t finished yet.
“me too….”
Runaan looked at Martha and then sat up.
“Not yet.”
She also raised her sword and said that they should continue their fight. It seemed that she wanted to be with Marta as a friend rather than feeling a sense of rivalry with her.
“good.”
When Raon was about to snicker and draw his sword again.
‘uh…?’
A very soft light began to bloom near Martha and Runaan’s hearts.
