The Reincarnated Assassin is a Genius Swordsman Chapter 294

Chapter 294

“eww… .”

A weak moan flowed from Raon’s lips, which had stopped as if he had died since he put on the helmet.

Merlin looked up at Raon, his chin quivering, and his lips curled up.

“Looks like you’re almost done.”

Seeing the stimulation in the body, it seemed that the fight between Lokta and Raon in the mental world was over.

‘I thought my mental strength would be stronger than I predicted… .’

The original expectation was that Lokta would wake up as soon as the body adapts, but seeing as it took more than 3 hours just to take control of the body, it seems that Raon’s mental strength was much stronger than expected.

‘Still, the winner was Rockta.’

Raon’s eyes are red. Seeing blue light shining from the eyes inside the mask, the winner was determined to be Lokta.

‘It was good that I fed the immortality.’

If he hadn’t fed immortality to the elixir beforehand, the battle in the spirit world would have been much longer and there was a possibility that Lokta would have lost. He used up most of the elixirs he had, but he was satisfied that things went as expected.

Whoops!

Merlin telekinetically lifted Raon from the chair into the air and laid him on the floor.

It was much better to lie on the floor than to sit in a chair, because from now on, when the soul takes over the body, there should be no outside stimulation.

‘Are we finally meeting… .’

Before Lokta was a knight who protected himself, he was a family member who had been with him for the rest of his life. The thought of meeting Lokta again after hundreds of years had already made her heart thump.

I didn’t sleep or rest for over a week, but I wasn’t tired at all. She just wanted to see him.

After Merlin made sure Raon was safe, he stepped back and looked back. The soul sword was looking at Raon in the same attitude as the first time.

“How about you?”

“… … .”

The soul sword didn’t even answer Merlin’s question and fixed his gaze on Raon.

“Doesn’t something tickle you?”

“… … .”

At those words, the sword’s shoulder shook very slightly.

Merlin narrowed his eyes as he looked at the half-soul sword as if he knew that.

“I’m sorry.”

She turned her head again. She bit her lip as she saw the dragon’s helmet glowing softly in blue.

“This one is also desperate. I cannot yield.”

* * *

“Hehe… .”

Lars caressed his puffy eyes with a round hand and sniffed.

“You are the fifth to punch the king.”

“Five times? I’ve been beaten a lot.”

Raon smiled at Lars, who was as green as tropical fruit flavored cotton candy.

“Are you the real demon king?”

“Listen up! It’s not the guy who fed the fist, it’s the guy who blew it! Among the five, you are the first one who has fanned the king this far!”

Lars screamed in a fit of rage.

“Kuuuuugh, I can’t count how many times I’ve been hit!”

“Oh, I’m counting. 294 to be exact.”

“uh… .”

Lars’ mouth fell open as if he didn’t know he had been hit that far.

“294 units? 294 units? Even if you try to hit me like that, I won’t be able to hit you!”

“You don’t know, but the feeling of being hit with that look is no joke.”

Raon smiled lightly at Lars growling.

Lars was round and stuffed inside, and the size was just right, so it tasted like hitting. It feels like a top-notch punching bag is floating around. It was a slightly addictive hitting feeling.

“This king… To think that the main king, the lord of the demon realm, was beaten 294 times by the likes of humans. this is a dream It must be a dream… .”

Lars buried his face in his chubby arms and shook his shoulders. The existence that showed overwhelming strength and beauty a moment ago was despairing at the reality of becoming tropical fruit-flavored cotton candy.

“I’m sorry, but my revenge hasn’t even started yet.”

Raon smiled coldly at Lars, who was whining.

“Oh, you haven’t even started yet! Are you trying to hit me again! After beating 294 people and then trying to hit them again, does your conscience grow hairy!”

As if he didn’t want to get hit, Lars’ babbling became more than twice as fast as usual.

“I have a conscience too. Don’t hit me any more.”

“Well, then… .”

“Didn’t you say you eat mint chocolate for three meals a day?”

“uh… .”

Lars’ eyes swayed like a pendulum. He seemed more afraid than he was supposed to be.

“Starting today, my meal is a piece of Nadin bread. I won’t even say anything else.”

“You bastard! The king even liked mint chocolate! That bread only tastes like rubber, so you don’t like it either!”

“I’m okay.”

Raon calmly shook his head. Perhaps it was because she had lived without caring about taste since her previous life, as long as she could fill her stomach, the taste didn’t matter.

“uh… .”

Looking at Raon’s eyes, Lars realized that the words he had just said were sincere.

“no! That’s not all!”

He shouted no way, causing anger and chills.

However, it was very weak, probably because it consumed too much power to manifest the main body.

“Nadine bread is torture! Raw rubber is better than that!”

Lars fired a fist of cold air as if he was trying to resist even with that weak power.

“There is a saying in the human world.”

Raon twisted his chin and raised his right fist.

“Thin fists must be fine in order for the coming fists to be fine.”

He struck Lars, who jumped at him with those words. Lars bounced like a rubber ball and landed in a corner.

“Kkeuheuok, more, more dirty, hurting… .”

Lars sprawled out and opened his mouth.

“You hit it weakly.”

Raon laughed. If he hadn’t done it properly, Lars would have been completely crushed and folded by now.

“I, Nadine, can’t just eat bread. I’d rather hit the main king… .”

Lars left those words and closed his eyes. To say he wanted to change the menu until he fainted, his obsession with food was astounding.

“I haven’t spoken yet.”

I was going to say that I would not eat mint chocolate in the future, but I refrained from the shock because Lars might really die.

Raon turned his head to the right. A baby dragon that looked like a lizard was clinging flat to the floor. It was Lokta who admitted defeat and was deprived of space.

“Now, let’s go to Chalian. Do you want to start right? Or just… .”

“I have already admitted defeat. Let me know if there is anything you want to ask before I disappear.”

Lokta let out a short sigh and closed his eyes.

“Live?”

“The loser in the battle of souls is absorbed into the soul of the victor and disappears. In other words, I am not worth beating right now.”

At the end, he nodded calmly, as if he wanted to go like a knight. He was a world apart from when he first appeared.

Raon looked at Rokta and narrowed his eyes.

‘It’s definitely faded.’

Unlike Lars, who maintained his appearance even after being beaten by nearly 300 enemies, Lokta’s appearance had become translucent.

As Lokta said at the beginning, it seemed that the rule of this world was that the loser would be absorbed into the soul of the winner and disappear.

“I don’t have time, so I ask quickly. Is the Merlin out there really Merlin?”

“exactly.”

“How are humans from hundreds of years ago still alive?”

“It is not alive.”

“So you’re saying he died and then came back to life?”

“A wizard allied with us at the time retrieved Merlin’s soul from the frozen corpse after he passed away.”

“Then that wizard was something like Eden’s ancestor, and that descendant planted Merlin’s soul in a mask in this era?”

I felt strange from the first time I saw Merlin. Her white hands and lips could never have been those of an old woman.

“You know that.”

Lokta nodded, saying she heard it through Merlin’s voice.

“To be honest, I don’t know the exact circumstances. Because all I could do was listen to the story in the voice of the princess from time to time while being trapped here.”

“hmm… .”

That’s right. The information he needed to hear from Lokta was about this world, not Eden.

“What will change when your soul is absorbed by me?”

“The level of the soul will rise greatly. I should be able to use my abilities as well.”

“ability?”

“Simply put, your aura will rise, and you will learn how to use the sword and cold weapons that I used to use, so you will be able to reach a higher level even as a martial artist.”

Lokta told me various information with calm eyes, as if he sensed that death was approaching. She was surprised because she knew how to defy or kill her time.

“It grows more here… .”

Raon clenched his fists tightly. He won the bet with Lars as well, but to absorb Lokta’s soul and increase his abilities and power, it wasn’t enough to say that it was 3 sets with 1 stone instead of 2 sets with 1 stone.

“one more. How do you develop this mental world?”

I wanted to know a little more because I heard from Ras that this place was a hint to achieve the realization of the sword world.

“It’s an experience.”

“experience?”

“Even if they have the same experience, each person feels and realizes differently. This world is like a building you build based on your many experiences. If you look up, you will go higher, if you look down, you will be stronger.”

Lokta said that this world changes depending on what thoughts and experiences you have.

‘What Lars said was right.’

As the distorted cotton candy said, if you accumulate a lot of experience and develop this place, you will be able to make your own world into a sword world one day.

“This time it’s about you.”

Afterwards, Raon asked about Lokta’s personality and tastes. After the end of this world, she was to pretend to be a rock person to Merlin.

“My name is, as I said, Locta Deport. blue dragon… .”

Unexpectedly, Lokta said all of this correctly.

“Lastly, what is Merlin’s purpose?”

Raon asked about Merlin after hearing about Lokta’s personal information.

“It’s to save me and be with me like before.”

“Together? Are you trying to commit a massacre like in your previous life?”

Lohengrin said that Merlin had a monster and slaughtered many people. It seemed that they were trying to reproduce it again in the present world.

“That’s not it. just live with me I am the only family he has left.”

Lokta lowered her eyes.

“You live together as a family?”

Come to think of it… .

Raon turned his head to the place where the frozen castle was now gone. When the castle collapsed, there was a log cabin like Merlin’s room in it.

“Merlin was the princess of the Sirken Kingdom. He lost a lot and I was the only family left in the end.”

“If it’s Sirken, is it the kingdom you said you built by destroying other kingdoms?”

“Right. But it was also a kingdom that fell before we built it. Well, I don’t have time to go into detail.”

Lokta smiled calmly as he looked at his almost faded body.

“The princess is a pitiful person. He also has many circumstances… .”

“Did you answer kindly to say that?”

Raon looked at Lokta with cold eyes. She wondered why she answered so well, but she seemed to be asking me to take care of her Merlin after she left this world.

“Everyone has circumstances.”

Everyone in this world has circumstances. Merlin had come too far to understand with those words.

“I guess so. I and the princess know that I have committed a great sin. But he just… .”

Lokta was unable to say the last words and disappeared as a bubble of frost. Oddly enough, she didn’t look so sad.

cooong!

When Lokta completely disappeared, the mental world began to shake.

“what?”

“What is it? The chaos in this world is over when your half is completely absorbed into your soul.”

Lars crawled over like a slug and let out a deep sigh.

“Then you’re going back to reality?”

“It is.”

Raon smiled as he saw his world shaken as if an earthquake had occurred.

‘I got more than I thought.’

Even the reward of winning a bet with Lars and the ability you will get while absorbing Lokta. It was a harvest that exceeded expectations.

‘and… .’

He turned around and saw his own world, which was still small and feeble.

I closed my eyes, hoping that through more experience, this small and weak space would transform into a place where even the sword world could be realized.

“Come back later.”

“that… .”

When the accident was about to end in the shaking world, Lars whispered.

“Well, I don’t really only eat Nadin bread, do I? huh?”

Thinking about eating even at this moment, I don’t think it was a lie when I said that I just wanted to eat mint chocolate to my heart’s content.

What a great guy. So he decided to be honest.

huh. that’s right.

* * *

“Um… .”

Raon opened his eyes. Before she could finish examining the magic circle engraved on the ceiling, Merlin, who was wearing an old woman’s mask, pushed her in the face.

“Do you recognize me?”

For the first time I could feel the urgency in her voice. It was a voice full of anticipation and madness.

Raon slowly raised his body and met Merlin’s shaking eyes.

“ball… Are you the Lord?”

I followed Lokta’s tone and trembled slightly.

“ah… .”

Merlin slumped backwards as if his legs gave out. The eyes inside the mask vibrated violently.

“Rockta. Rockta. Rockta!”

She hugged Raon and called Lokta’s name endlessly.

“I finally met you! finally again… .”

“Sorry, but my memory is still congested. Raon Sieghart’s memories and mine are mixed… .”

Raon shook his head, continuing to play Lokta’s tone.

“I don’t know yet.”

“are you okay. It will get better with time. Just like the original you.”

Merlin sobbed, clutching his neck tightly. Surprisingly, it smelled of fresh spring flowers.

‘This woman is sincere.’

Raon narrowed his eyes as he looked at Merlin’s trembling arm. It was said that her family was the last remaining of her family, and Merlin was more than pleased with her, and regarded this situation as a miracle.

“Is the princess all right?”

“Never mind me.”

Merlin shook his head and smiled.

“Are you hungry? I have prepared your favorite foods.

-food?

Lars, meanwhile, was still questioning the food. It’s really gross.

“hurry… ah.”

Merlin gave a hand to Raon and collapsed.

“princess?”

Raon grabbed Merlin and checked his condition. There is no energy in the body. I felt as if my mind had completely melted away from extreme fatigue.

‘Passing out from fatigue.’

Come to think of it, I’ve never seen Merlin rest. He cooked rice himself and kept preparing something, constantly moving.

Judging by the huge amount of mana contained in these six magic circles, this wouldn’t have been done alone.

‘I was overdoing it.’

It was clear that he had not slept for the past hour and had fainted from the tension he had been preparing for his magic.

Raon stood up and hugged Merlin.

“… … .”

The soul sword stood in the same position as when using the dragon helmet.

“I need to let the princess rest. Get out of the way.”

Raon hugged Merlin as dearly as he could and kissed his chin.

“… … .”

The soul sword did not get out of the way right away and looked into the pupils inside his helmet. A strange light that could not be expressed in words permeated within his emotionless gold.

“Didn’t you hear the word Vicky?”

“… … .”

After saying it twice, the soul sword retreated. When he got out of the way, an exit was created, just like when he entered the wall.

“Thank you.”

Raon nodded his head at the soul sword and exited the passage.

“… … .”

The soul sword stood like a stone statue until Raon took Merlin and left the room. His hand trembled slightly as the revolving passage closed again.

* * *

Raon returned to the log room, laid Merlin on the bed, and gazed at the old woman’s mask.

-Aren’t you going to open it?

Lars, who returned with a small cotton candy, pointed to Merlin’s mask.

‘It’s annoying when I wake up.’

If you touch the mask and Merlin wakes up, it will stick to it and won’t come off, making it difficult to move freely.

Now that she’s passed out, we need to go through Lokta’s memories and come up with a solid script.

-Because he’s a bad guy. The king would have taken it off even if he was curious.

Lars murmured, ‘So you hit people 294 times’.

‘That’s what you did right.’

Raon sighed and sat down on the floor.

‘Because I have to concentrate. Be quiet.’

Right now, Lokta’s memory is as faint as a cloud floating in the air. Only by concentrating on holding on to that memory can she fool Merlin for sure.

-joy. I have nothing to say.

Lars turned his head away as if showing that he was upset. As he was originally such a guy, when he was trying to concentrate without paying attention, a message popped up in front of his eyes.

[You won the bet with <Rage>.]

[All stats increase by 10 points.]

[The grade of the attribute <Poison Resistance> will increase.]

[The level of the attribute <Spiral Force> will increase.]

It was a message informing about the reward for winning the bet with Lars. It was a fairly large amount, but the message was still there for a long time.

[You have won the eighth victory over Wrath.]

[Additional stats increase due to the effect of 8 consecutive wins.]

[Strength increases by 3 points.]

[Agility increases by 3 points.]

[Your senses increase by 4 points.]

winning streak message. It was a message that his stats had increased by winning eight consecutive battles against Lars. A large amount of ability increased at once, and a shudder like joy soared in his spine.

– How many times… .

Lars opened his mouth at the message. Although he has good abilities, he seemed shocked that he had been defeated eight times in a row.

But the message is still not over.

[You have absorbed the soul of the Dragonian Lokta Deport.]

The rewards obtained by absorbing Lokta’s soul were spread out like a carpet underneath.

-Turn it off!

Lars gritted his teeth at the message.

– How can you keep your mouth shut when this sh*t is happening!

The boy’s eyes waved violently up and down.

-Why does the original king have to be beaten 294 times and even lose his abilities! You devilish bastard!
