The Reincarnated Assassin is a Genius Swordsman Chapter 360

Chapter 360

Denning Rose put the map on the round table. Judging by its stiff state, it looked like a map made for this job.

“The place where Drake made his nest is the Zamari Mountains. It’s not too far from here.”

She opened the map, referring to the Zamari Mountains, revealing mountainous terrain full of contour lines. She was able to figure out the topography with just a map, whether or not she investigated closely.

Raon looked down at the map and smiled lightly.

‘The Zamari Mountains.’

Fortunately, it’s a place you know.

The Zamari Mountains are a place where you have to go deep into the west of Locan City, where the Sepia Chamber is located.

It was a barren land with few monsters because of the dry mountainous terrain.

‘Weathers Village… .’

On the road to the mountain range, if you turn right, you run across a small village with your fingertips.

‘Looks like they’re still there.’

When I stopped by for a mission during my life as an assassin, I remembered the warm memories of giving myself a bed and a meal as an outsider.

“Wasn’t Drake targeting the townsfolk?”

“It’s far from the mountain range, and no one has been harmed yet, probably because the Drake moved toward the West Sea.”

Denning Rose looked at the map and shook his head.

“Still, it seems like it would be nice to back off a bit… .”

“The specialties of Weathers Village are raspberries and chestnuts. They are items that help us live in a barren environment, so even if we know them, we won’t be able to escape easily.”

“okay.”

That’s right. No matter how wild the monsters are, it’s not easy to leave the place where you live.

“If Raon-nim catches Drake on this occasion, they too can live in peace.”

She asked and smiled.

“The raspberry pie and chestnut stew in Weathers Village are said to be the best on the continent. After catching the drake, be sure to eat it and come back.”

no.

I tried to shut Denning Rose’s mouth, but it was too late. The word “the best on the continent” stuck in the ears of the demon king.

-Oh oh?

Lars jumped to his feet and pointed at the map.

-Raspberry pie and stewed meat?

‘Simmered at night… .’

-Raspberry pie and stewed chestnuts? Feel so good! The original king always wanted such a special dish! I could eat them both for dessert on a grilled drake! Leave immediately!

He didn’t go fast and hit me on the shoulder as if asking what he was doing.

‘Why are you eating Drake… .’

-Dragons are hard to eat, so you should eat them. It’s a meat that tastes quite chewy.

‘Please… .’

Raon shook his head and looked at Denning Rose.

“Who came out of the Black Tower?”

“I think the black beast Harrison and his men came out.”

“The Black Swan… .”

Fortunately, it’s a name I’ve heard. It was said that he had risen to the upper level of the master as a skilled person whose name was known in the Black Tower. A lot of time has passed, so by now you should have reached Master Superlative level.

‘It’s an opponent worth defeating. and… .’

If it’s dangerous, just run away.

Right now, he has a silver screen of tales. After making a detailed plan, it is enough to fall into danger when it is dangerous.

Raon looked at the map again, rolling a plan in his head.

‘The terrain isn’t bad either.’

The mountain range was sprawling and wide, so there were many good places to hide.

‘It’s a perfect location to get a fisherman’s geography.’

The Black Tower will move to catch Drake, and the shadows will only look for an opportunity to kill themselves.

It was a perfect space to wipe out all of them by bumping into them who were trying to carry out their mission without knowing anything.

“The location of the nest must be at the top of a mountain range.”

“that’s right.”

Denning Rose extended a finger and pointed to the center of the map. Drake, of course, nested in the highest mountains.

“Drakes often vacate their nests for long periods of time. That’s why they nest in dangerous places where other species can’t come.”

She frowned, saying that even getting to the nest would not be easy.

“Based on my research so far, I think this drake comes to the nest every 7 to 10 days. You said you left the nest three days ago, so you should be able to settle down first.”

“okay.”

Raon nodded. At that level, you can reach the mountains before the drake comes.

It was enough time to wait not only for Drake, but also for Black Tower and Shadow.

“Does he have any attributes?”

“Cow, property?”

Dorian opened her eyes and charged.

“Does Drake have attributes?”

“Basically, they have no attributes, but those who live long or are born strong from the start have attributes like dragons.”

“Ah ah ah… .”

Dorian opened his mouth as if he didn’t know that. His chin trembled as if he was frightened.

“Unfortunately there is.”

Denning Rose nodded heavily.

“Keep it off! What, what is it?”

Dorian swallowed dryly and slammed the table.

“It’s like the properties of ice. There were traces of the use of Breath of Frost near the nest.”

Denning Rose sighed and scratched the map lightly with his fingernails.

“Uh huh?”

“Ice.”

Responses differed sharply. Dorian’s face turned pale as if he were about to suffocate, while Raon couldn’t help laughing.

‘Ice is good.’

Currently, his water resistance is 7 stars. Even if Drake was hit with the cold breath that he used as his full power, he would hardly suffer any damage.

“No, Drake is strong, so why are you laughing! There’s also a Black Tower, so you can’t even be nervous!”

Dorian let out a fuss as if it were absurd.

“It’s enough to deal with the Black Tower. Because Drake is big. It’s easier to win the test your father gave you.”

The fact that Drake has attributes means that he is very large. As long as he caught him cleanly, he’d already won.

“her… .”

“ah… .”

Dorian and Denning Rose looked at themselves with blank eyes, as if there were people like this.

“Unfortunately, this information is not yet complete.”

“that… .”

Raon looked into Denning Rose’s eyes and nodded.

‘It means I didn’t give it to anyone.’

Black market information must always be accurate. By not yet finished, I meant that I hadn’t passed this information on to anyone.

“Our informant is waiting in Weathers Village, as I mentioned earlier, so you should get some help.”

“thank you.”

Raon stood up and bowed his head to Denning Rose. To this extent, it was no exaggeration to say that she did everything she could. She was just grateful.

“Go, thank you!”

Dorian also stood up and bowed to Denning Rose.

“Oh, can I ask you one more favor?”

“Which one?”

“If someone asks about the drake in the Zamari Mountains after noon tomorrow, can you just say yes?”

If it was Derus, he wouldn’t move immediately after hearing Palen’s information. This was the last piece to fool him.

“hmm… .”

Denning Rose licked his lips and nodded.

“It’s not a lie, so it’s okay to tell you that much information.”

“thank you. Then the value… .”

“You said you were going to find Drake for free.”

“Since the Black Tower intervened, we have to give you something to offer.”

“are you okay. If it wasn’t for Raon-nim, I wouldn’t be here either.”

Denning Rose smiled and shook his head.

“… If you still want to give something, please bring me raspberry pie and braised chestnuts from Weathers Village. I want to try it too.”

She laughed, saying that would be enough.

-Oh oh!

It wasn’t Raon who reacted first, it was Lars.

-Then you should stop by the village? Wanna taste it too? Just in case, we should buy two for gifts and eat the damaged ones, right?

Lars muttered a strange sound as if he was already looking forward to it, and smacked his lips for a long time.

When will this insectivore demon king come to his senses… .

“You have to do that.”

Raon pushed Lars away and nodded to Denning Rose.

“I’ll buy you the most delicious pie.”

Derus Robert’s office.

Unlike the clear sunlight pouring down, the butler Lezel came into the space, which was extremely cool.

“My lord.”

“Did you find it?”

Before Rezel could even lower her head, Derus’s eyes shot out. It meant that he had found the unknown person who destroyed the underwater dungeon.

It was time to calm down a long time ago, but Derus still couldn’t escape his rage, probably because he lost the elixir, spirit object, and even Matio.

“sorry.”

Rezel silently lowered her head.

“We searched for all who appeared to be outsiders, but we couldn’t find anyone who set foot there.”

Robert, with its beautiful natural scenery, attracts numerous tourists throughout the year. Finding a suspicious person here was no different from finding a needle in the sand.

“Whoa… .”

Derus sighed and looked at the ceiling. After a while, the coolness returned to his eyes.

“Now I have no choice but to accept it.”

“My lord… .”

“What if I didn’t find it?”

“Pallen Sepia of Sepia Company took the bait.”

Rezel pulled out a piece of paper from her bosom.

“Fallen Sepia… .”

Derus lowered his chin and narrowed his eyes.

“However, contrary to our expectations, we ask you to deal with the youngest brother and the prosecutor who accompanies him first, not the first and second.”

“A swordsman with the youngest?”

“The head of the household knows it well.”

Rezel returned the papers and put them on Derus’s desk.

“hmm?”

Derus looked at the documents and frowned.

“Raon Sieghart? Why is this guy here?”

“Dorian Sepia, the youngest member of Sepia Company, was from the Gwangpungdan. He is faking his last name, so it remains unknown until now.”

“Then did the two of you escape from Sieghart and go to Lokhan?”

“It seems so.”

“Since when! Have you figured out their whereabouts?”

He pressed his fingers against the desk and lifted his chin.

“It seems that he moved in disguise because he was kidnapped by Eden. It is not revealed when or how she moved.”

“… … .”

Derus frowned as he saw the name Raon Sieghart written on the document.

‘Could it be that guy? no. It’s impossible.’

Even if the assumption that Raon Sieghart had the knowledge of the assassin Raon was correct, it would not make sense that he knew information about the underwater dungeon. When he was alive, the dungeon was tightly closed and no information escaped.

‘but… .’

I don’t feel good.

It was clear that whenever I saw the name Raon Sieghart, I felt uncomfortable.

“What is the exact content of the request?”

“It is said that the test given by the owner of Sepia is to bring Drake’s corpse.”

“Drake… .”

“It is said that Palen Sepia has bugged Dorian’s room and found out where Drake is and where he is going. He said he would send me the information right away if he accepted the request.”

“Hmm… .”

Derus snapped his fingers and closed his eyes, then opened them.

“Isn’t it a bit strange that even if Raon Sieghart followed, he was targeting the youngest instead of the first and second?”

“I looked into that as well, but they say that Raon was humiliated the day he arrived. In detail… .”

Lezel briefly told what had happened between Raon and Palen.

“It’s not checks, it’s revenge? Then it makes sense.”

Derus nodded slowly. After listening to Rezel, he understood why Palen wanted to eliminate Raon and Dorian first.

‘Things are going well.’

I threw a bait at Palen, but the odds of her biting weren’t very high. It was a miracle that her opportunity came thanks to Raon when she was trying to approach it in a different way.

“Is Tenebrae still there?”

Derus lightly tapped the desk.

“Probably two more weeks.”

“Then send Roctan and his poisoners.”

“Roctan… .”

“To get rid of Raon Sieghart, it is better to use a method other than force. If it’s Rocktan, no matter how bad it is, you’ll be able to get along with each other.”

He smiled coldly as if the situation had already been drawn.

“All right.”

Rezel naturally lowered her head without questioning anything.

“I will prepare as soon as I hear back from Palen.”

“Don’t move right away, buy the information on the black market and check it against it.”

Derus said to stay vigilant until the end and check the information.

“yes.”

Rezel politely bowed her head and went to visit.

Whoa!

Derus smiled coldly as he dusted the papers Rezel had given him.

‘I thought he was only a hindrance, but he creates opportunities in this way.’

In return, I will give you a painful death.

noon the next day.

Palen Sepia went over to the window and pulled out a letter from the window frame. She didn’t look at her letter and put it on the table in the center of the room.

“All, the answer came.”

“Good job.”

Raon smiled and opened the letter Palen had put down.

In the letter, there was a sentence stating that he would accept the assassination request and that he would like to organize the information on Raon and Dorian by this evening.

‘also.’

If the forces called Black Death were an ordinary assassination group, they would never have accepted this request, but Derus Robert was behind them.

As expected, they accepted this request to kill themselves and put a leash on Palen Sepia.

After burning the letter using a comic book, Raon took out a piece of paper from his bosom.

“Write a note according to this and put it in the window.”

“Ah yes… .”

Palen Sepia accepted the paper with her chin trembling. She opened her eyes wide as she checked her content on her script.

“I-over there… .”

She swallowed dry saliva, shaking the hand holding the paper.

“Can I ask you one question, please?”

“What is it?”

“Why are you attracting assassins? The Black Death is a group of assassins who have never failed, but isn’t it dangerous even if you are?”

“Even if it’s dangerous, we can’t let those who trade with human lives.”

“Ugh… .”

Raon looked down at Palen Sepia with cool eyes. She cried out like her frog before her snake.

– It’s F*cking. You can’t think like that!

Lars frowned as if it were absurd.

‘That’s right. but… .’

eaten by others.

‘It’s convenient when the nickname Hyeop is like this.’

Thanks to the nickname of Seolhwa Swordsman, no one catches a grudge when he says this. It’s usually uncomfortable, but it’s so comfortable when you pretend to be for a cause like this.

“You just have to follow my words. Then you will be able to sleep comfortably tonight.”

“yes. yes… .”

When he said that he could sleep comfortably, Palen nodded hard like a doll.

‘I don’t know what he did, but the trauma was properly fixed.’

It seemed that at least a year was needed to overcome that mental shock. No, since Palen was a man full of pride and was unable to bite, he might take more time.

‘Meanwhile… .’

It means that you are no different from this side’s servant.

When Palen comes to his senses, this company will already be in Dorian’s hands.

After confirming that Palen had written information about the Zamari Mountains and the Drake in his handwriting on the contact note, he stood up.

“Are you going?”

“I have to go and prepare first.”

Raon was about to go out the door, but turned around.

“Keep in mind that she can always be watched.”

“ah… .”

“You act as you normally would.”

“Ah, I see!”

Palen nodded while his whole body trembled.

-Threaten once, bloody.

Lars said he was getting goosebumps and pinched his arm.

Raon laughed and left Palen’s room, killing his presence.

* * *

After Raon finished his preparations, he left the general mansion. Dorian was waiting at the door, stamping his feet.

“What are you doing?”

“I know I have to go quickly, but they say there is a Black Tower. I can’t get my feet off… .”

Dorian clutched his head, asking why scary things always happen.

– Tsk!

Lars clicked his tongue as he looked at Dorian.

-I wonder if he’s changed, but he’s still a coward.

‘People die when they change so quickly.’

Raon smiled and tapped his sword sheath.

“No need to worry. We’re not the ones fighting the Black Tower.”

“yes? what is that… .”

“I called the cheering squad.”

“Gee, really? Did you even call a gwangpungdan?”

“It’s not like that, but they are good at wielding a knife.”

Of course, they are the ones who use the sword to kill me.

-Are you not telling me that you called an assassin?

‘If I knew, I would cry and not go.’

-but. You can see it clearly.

Lars giggled as Dorian sighed in relief.

“let’s go.”

Raon patted Dorian on the shoulder and moved forward first.

“You have to settle down before the Black Tower.”

“Yes!”

The brightened Dorian nodded and joined behind.

As I was driving out of the city with the horse I had received from the merchant, a lady with a parasol covering her face approached me.

‘This woman… .’

can’t know It was the presence of Denning Rose that I met yesterday.

‘Why did you come?’

As the name suggests, black market executives do not reveal their appearance in the sun. Her appearance meant that something unexpected had happened.

Whoops.

Raonin opened the membrane to prevent sound from escaping.

“I have a problem.”

Denning Rose stuck to her side and slightly raised her parasol.

“The Black Tower took Drake’s position.”

“That was somewhat expected, wasn’t it?”

The black tower was moving towards the Zamari Mountains, so finding the drake’s nest was a thought. Anyway, until Drake came back, it didn’t matter much because there was an ending.

“yes. However, the Black Tower did not go directly to the mountain range, but took a detour.”

Drops of blood flowed from Denning Rose’s lips, visible under the parasol.

“They raided Weathers Village.”
