Chapter 349
As the dust settled, Derus Robert rose from the emerald-colored sea.
His mud-stained face, unlike usual, was filled with horror and resentment.
“Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
As Derus Robert looked up at the sky and screamed, the entire sea stirred and dozens of waterspouts rose.
The waterspouts collided, coalesced, and became a black storm that swept across the sea.
Aaaaaaaaaaa!
The huge storm stopped slowly only after the fish and monsters in the nearby sea and the trees on the land were uprooted and ground.
Hooded!
Amid the pouring blood and flesh, Derus Robert landed on the beach.
Even though red bloody rain fell from the sky, not a drop of blood touched his body and face.
Even after turning the land and sea into ruins, Derus’s hard expression did not ease. There was a glimmer of coolness in his eyes that was hard to look at.
Derus gritted his teeth as he looked back at the sea where the huge tsunami soared.
“Damn it… .”
I went down to the deep sea and looked at the remains of the dungeon, but I couldn’t feel the relics and spirits I felt before.
I looked for the corpses belatedly, but in that short moment, only bones remained as they were bitten by deep sea fish and monsters. It was not known how he died, let alone his identity.
At least there was one corpse that was fine, but only the bones and flesh were crushed, as if the dungeon had collapsed.
‘I didn’t get anything.’
The shadows, including Mattio and Cocini, were lost, artifacts and spirits disappeared, and it was impossible to even figure out what had happened.
It was the worst outcome I could have ever imagined.
‘But one thing is certain.’
This is human work.
Maybe it’s Matio who has a strong sense of responsibility. There was no way Kosini, who was good at manipulating the mind, would die from something like a spirit creature. If he thought he couldn’t catch him, he would have somehow escaped.
It was clear that another human or force had intervened, as the relics and spirits had also disappeared.
‘What kind of guy is he?’
He is not an ordinary master if he avoids Matio and Corsini’s senses, kills everyone, and takes possession of spiritual objects and artifacts. It was clear that he would be at least a grand master level.
“Come out.”
At the call of Derus, the shadows hiding in the sand hurriedly jumped out and knelt down.
“Has anyone passed by this place?”
“Only residents from nearby villages came.”
The shadows spoke the names and impressions of the residents who passed by with their heads bowed.
“Useless things.”
“ah… .”
“eww… .”
The bodies of the shadows stopped abruptly at Derus’s rough gesture.
Without even screaming, they turned into red powder and scattered on the sandy beach.
“My lord.”
Rezel, who had arrived late and was waiting, bowed her head and handed her a white towel.
Derus took off his coat and gloves and wiped the mud off his face and body with a towel.
“Go, my lord! blood… .”
Rezel shook his chin when he saw the red blood on the towel Derus used.
“I am not hurt.”
Derus narrowed his eyes as he watched the blood dripping from the sword scar on the back of his hand.
‘Should I say it’s amazing?’
When he suffered damage or a problem, blood gushed out from this old wound and gave him intense pain.
Whether it was a coincidence or inevitable, it was a truly bizarre thing.
“Lezel.”
“yes.”
“Investigate the surrounding villages. No, search the entire Robert area and find those with even the slightest oddities.”
“All right.”
Even though it was almost impossible, Rezel nodded calmly.
Derus sucked the blood from the back of his hand and let out a cool smile. A dark aura slowly bloomed in his eyes.
‘Even if I run away to the edge of the continent, I’ll find you.’
never miss

A forest near the city of Mortran.
A strong wind cuts through the morning air.
The source of the wind is Dorian. He was swinging his sword in a small clearing in the forest.
Whoa!
Cold sweat dripped from Dorian’s forehead with each swing of the sword. Just like when fighting an enemy, it was a training called Ikgeomjung, which focused on extreme swordsmanship for each herbivore.
The sound of Dorian’s sword wind, which began at dawn, stopped only when the sun rose to the center of the sky.
“Whoa… .”
Dorian sighed and lowered his sword.
‘It’s as the vice-lord said.’
The stronger you become, the more difficult your swordsmanship becomes.
Swordsmanship, which should have been easy and simple as he got stronger, created another wall as he grew up. The saying that there is no end to martial arts seems to have come from this.
‘When am I going to grow up?’
In order not to fall behind the other swordsmen in his family, he steadily practiced swordsmanship while staying here, but the more he practiced, the more he was unsure of what swordsmanship was.

I’m sure he’s growing, but his head has gotten more and more complicated.
‘Let’s eat for now.’
As they trained from dawn to noon, they heard thunder from the boat. After eating the lunch box I got from the dorm, I leaned against a tree.
‘When will the vice lord come?’
Even though it had been a long time since he left, Raon had no intention of returning.
I was a little worried because they didn’t even tell me where I was going. Not Raon, of course, but other people who were entangled with him.
Dorian swallowed dryly as he watched the sky dripping with sunlight.
‘no way… .’
You’re not going to have a fight with the six emperors, are you?
The Raon I’ve seen so far is a person who fits the word “reckless” better than anyone else.
I thought it might be because he was a gimmick who broke into an auction house and stole goods, threatened a princess from a foreign country, jumped over a castle wall and wiped out monsters, and gained weight after being kidnapped by Oma.
“Eh, ah! It won’t be.”
Dorian shook his head and stood up with his sword in his hand.
‘Let’s practice.’
In order to erase miscellaneous thoughts, he focused his whole mind while using his newly learned meteor swordsmanship.
…
Dorian sat down on the floor after swinging his sword until the sun went down in one-on-one training.
“ha… .”
Would this be enough?
In fact, he is training swordsmanship now not because he wants to fall behind, but because he is afraid of Raon.
‘Because I don’t know what to say when I come back.’
I have been training with all my might because I could ask for concentration strengthening training or sparring, saying my skills are the same.
‘At the current level, I wouldn’t be able to say anything about it no matter how much it was a demon.’
Since I came here, I have been training from before the sun rises until the night, so my skills have improved remarkably.
If he had grown to this extent, it was clear that even if he was a training fanatic, Raon would praise him.
‘That’s all for today.’
Dorian smiled contentedly, drew his sword, and stood up.
clap clap clap!
After tidying up the surroundings, I heard cool applause as I was about to go back to the dorm.
“Who, who are you!”
Dorian’s jaw trembled as he drew his sword, and a tall, red-haired man fell from a tree.
“uh?”
Dorian’s mouth fell open. He had different hair and eye colors, but he was a man you couldn’t recognize.
“Unstoppable Lord!”
“You recognize right away?”
“of course!”
I’d seen it countless times, so I couldn’t recognize it even with a disguise.
“Did your trip go well?”
“okay. It ended well thanks to you.”
Raon shook his subspace pouch and nodded.
“thank god. But where did you go… .”
“More than that.”
He stopped talking and scanned his entire body.
“I am moved now.”
“yes?”
Not knowing what to say, I opened my mouth wide.
“Suddenly what… .”
“I didn’t know that you, who thought you would play and eat here, would be training so hard.”
Raon smiled softly, saying that he was amazing.
“ah… .”
Dorian scratched the back of his head and lowered his head.
‘Have you been watching?’
it’s okay!
Today, except for the time to eat, I continued to swing my sword. If he had seen that, he would have no choice but to admit it, even if he was Raon, the king of demons.
“Seeing that your skills have improved considerably, it seems that you have been training steadily, not just today. There is strength and skill in swordsmanship.”
“Oh, no.”
Dorian smiled at the joy of being recognized and the relief of not having to go through Raon’s additional training.
“As the Vice Lord said, the stronger the sword, the more difficult it is. It’s still a long way off.”
“Big!”
Raon let out an exclamation as if he had just drank a glass of beer.
“Nice.”
Judging by his big smile, the plan seemed to have worked.
“I will do my best to train in the future!”
“It’s a good attitude. Should I give you a present?”
“Is it a souvenir? Then let’s go. Today, I’m going to solve the hoepo… .”
“hmm? Where are you going?”
When Dorian tried to turn his back with a gleeful smile, Raon grabbed him by the shoulder.
“Sue, let’s go home. It was too late.”
“No. You said you would give me a present.”
“You can give a present at the accommodation… .”
“no. It is a gift that can only be given here.”
“Sir, what is the present?”
Raon grinned and pointed at himself with his finger.
“Coalition with me.”
“crazy… .”
Dorian’s mouth fell open, and a curse came out.
“Go, why are you fighting sparring all of a sudden… .”
“You trained so hard by yourself, you are so admirable that I can’t let you go. I will help you break through the blocked wall.”
“it’s okay! I broke myself… .”
“no. if you get a little bit right. No, it will get better if you practice sparring.”
Raon pulled out the jecheon sword as if to start quickly.
“Didn’t you just say that you will work hard in the future? Let’s work hard from now on, not in the future.”
“… I trained all day long.”
“Then now is the time to show off your skills. Pick up the sword quickly.”
“Oh, no… .”
The situation was going the exact opposite of the plan to improve my skills and not engage in sparring or concentration training.
‘why. Why did this happen!’
Dorian’s lips trembled and he raised his head to look into Raon’s eyes. I understood when I saw the eyes shining with red madness.
‘Ah, that’s right.’
This man was crazy… .
* * *
Touched by Dorian’s passion, Raon’s education and beating did not end until the next morning.
“Huhhhh… .”
Dorian sagged on the floor like a wet towel, breathing heavily.
“Lord, I’m going to die… .”
He said he couldn’t do it and put down the sword in his hand.
“It’s a pear. I don’t even have the strength to lift a finger anymore.”
Raon laughed at Dorian, who inflated his stomach like a frog.
“I was going to stop anyway.”
He nodded and swabbed the Jecheon Sword. After training all day and sparring all night, it was exhausting.
“Good work.”
“… I thought you would do more.”
“Should I add more?”
“no! never!”
Dorian jumped up and shook his head so fast that he couldn’t see.
“Because if this is strange, there is a risk of injury. But you still look full of energy?”
“Oh no!”
He lay down again and panted.
-It’s pitiful.
Lars looked at Dorian and shook his head.
-That kind of guy is a subordinate of the main king… .
‘Still, I’m proud that I trained on my own.’
Raon let out a faint smile, feeling Dorian’s growth.
I told him to play because he didn’t want to burden me because he was going back to a house where he was only bullied, but it was remarkable that he had trained so far.
Originally, I was going to eat Naedan and Haeryeonghwa to practice seniority, but Dorian’s achievement was amazing, so he made a stepping stone for further growth through Dalian.
‘Shall I help you a little more?’
I put my hand in the subspace pocket. He tore off one of the leaves of the Haeryeonghwa and handed it to Dorian.
“What is this?”
“Eat and practice.”
“Transparent leaves? You brought something strange again.”
Dorian received the leaf with a weak, trembling hand. He didn’t ask more if he believed him and just stuffed it into his mouth.
“Oh, it’s delicious. and… uh?”
The guy who ate the leaves while chewing sat down on the floor and began to practice.
-Is it delicious? Let’s eat one!
Lars jumped up and pointed at the leaf Dorian had eaten.
‘ha… .’
Raon looked at Lars and rolled his eyes.
‘It doesn’t change.’
This gluttonous demon king is now looking for a taste in the elixir. He said he was pathetic after seeing Dorian, but Ji did more.
-Don’t do that, just one… .
‘I’ll eat it later. Wait a minute.’
He pushed Lars away, saying he would eat both leaves and flowers.
oh oh oh!
Black energy flows through Dorian’s pores. The detoxification ability of the leaves of Haeryeonghwa is to take out the takgi from the inside.
‘It’s just starting.’
Raon put his hand on Dorian’s back and pushed the aura.
He absorbed all the energy of Haeryeonghwa and helped the seniority as a cartoonist so that waste products could be removed better.
Dorian’s eyes flashed open when the seniority that started at dawn came to daytime.
“Wow… .”
He gulped down dry saliva, looking at his hands.
“I-what did you give me? The amount of aura has increased, and why is your body so light?”
“Leaf of the Haeryunghwa.”
“Haeryunghwa? What was Haeryunghwa? Whoa!”
Dorian sprang to his feet, terrified.
“Haeryunghwa? The legendary Haeryeonghwa?”
His eyes swelled up to the point of popping out.
“okay.”
Raon nodded lightly. On the contrary, Dorian was a talkative guy, and he was good at keeping secrets, so it didn’t matter if I told him.
“That, that’s the elixir that comes out of the story! Where did you get such a treasure?”
“I went to the sea and got it.”
“uh… . uh?”
Dorian was speechless, his mouth gaping open.
‘Of course I won.’
But is that all!
It wasn’t any kind of oyster, but I laughed out loud when I said I went to the sea to get it.
“… Is that all?”
“huh.”
Raon took out a flower from his subspace pocket. Blue petals sparkling like the sea, smooth stems, and transparent leaves. It was clear that Haeryeonghwa had only been heard in legends.
“Haeryunghwa is right… .”
But was this something humans could have saved?
I couldn’t believe that Haeryeonghwa, which was judged to not exist anymore even in my own company, the 5th largest shopping district on the continent, was being held in the hands of a young human less than 20 years old.
“I have this too.”
Raon put his hand back into the subspace pocket and took out a round marble. The venom that stifled the stomach came out.
“Hey, what is this?”
“My sweetheart.”
“My Dan? where else is that?”
“I grabbed the spirit and pulled it out.”
“… … .”
Dorian closed her eyes tightly.
‘I heard you grabbed and pulled out the spiritual creature… .’
i can’t follow I really don’t know!
It is common sense that naturally occurring elixirs are attached to spiritual objects. However, it was shocking that he had come back without a single wound, even though there would have been a spirit creature at a level incomparable to monsters if it had been that much of a poison. In particular, Raon’s laid-back tone when talking as if he had picked an apple after going out to drink in the neighborhood was so frightening.
“iced coffee… .”
Dorian’s shoulders trembled, terrified of what would happen to Raon when he was over 20.
‘Isn’t it destroying one of the Six Emperors… .’
* * *
Raon smiled as he looked around the clearing where Dorian practiced.
“You have a good seat. It was difficult to practice at the dorm because of the inner altar.”
The miasma in the inside of the ghost jellyfish was so strong that it was impossible to practice the exercises in the inn. This place was wide and the field of view was blocked, so it was an ideal space for meditation.
After setting up illusion circles to prevent monsters and people from entering, they returned to the clearing.
“Now it is your turn. watch out.”
“I can keep it, but can I really eat that sweet?”
Dorian glared at the venom and swallowed dryly as he saw the burning inner hem.
“okay.”
He tore off the petals and leaves of the Haeryeonghwa and nodded. The flower’s petals contain mana concentrated in the energy of the sea, and pure mana and detoxifying power reside in the leaves. It was the power of the deciduous leaf that expelled waste from Dorian’s body.
“I’m not going to be able to handle the Vice Lord.”
“When did you get it?”
“Yeah, that’s it too… .”
Dorian scratched the back of his head and nodded.
“Watch out. I will finish it soon.”
“I will risk my life to protect it!”
He nodded, placing a hand on his forehead.
“There is no need for that.”
Raon laughed and put the petals of Haeryeonghwa into his mouth. Five petals melt on the tongue and pass naturally down the throat. Along with the scent of the sea, the whole body was filled with pure energy.
-that… .
Next, Ras raised his hand when he was about to eat the leaves of Dogdan and Haeryunghwa.
-It would be delicious if you wrapped the meat in those leaves… .
‘Go away.’
– Ugh!
I hit Lars with the back of my hand as if I was chasing a fly.
‘Let’s concentrate.’
If your eyes are drawn to that guy, you will only waste your mental energy. Raising his concentration again, he put the inside of the ghost jellyfish into his mouth. Perhaps because this was also a bunch of mana, as soon as I put it in my mouth, the form loosened and flowed down. The hot poisonous air that filled the inner layer spread and a pain that seemed to melt in the mouth came.
-Kkeeweaek!
Lars rolled on the floor and shivered all over.
– No, it’s tasteless! I will die!
‘Be patient.’
Raon chewed the leaves of Haeryeonghwa and pushed the miasma of the inner layer into his stomach along with the clean energy.
-hey! If you eat like that, you won’t taste it!
‘Be quiet.’
The petals of the Haeryeonghwa, the dogdom of the ghost jellyfish, and the leaves of the Haeryunghwa exploded with huge energy that seemed to tear the whole body apart.
The energy of the sea of Haeryeonghwa and the miasma of the ghost jellyfish pushed away the flow of Cartoonist and Glacia, clashing fiercely against each other.
‘are you okay.’
The petals, inner hem, and leaves of Haeryunghwa are a combination that I kept thinking about while coming here. acceptable enough.
Woo woo woo!
Raon swallowed the shock that made him vomit blood, and the ring of fire resonated. He suppressed the two fluctuating energies and rolled up his trembling mouth.
‘I like rough things too, and that’s great.’
make it all mine
