The Reincarnated Assassin is a Genius Swordsman Chapter 368

Chapter 368

People scream when they are surprised and shut up when they are shocked.

The current situation at the gymnasium is astounding. Even though the neck and tail were not fully stretched, everyone’s mind went out halfway at the existence of a drake that was over 30m long.

Raon turned his gaze to the right and looked at the merchants’ expressions.

Just a moment ago, the merchants who had been cheering and waving that Jesser had won had their mouths shut tight like honeydew mutes.

On the contrary, with his eyes wide open to the point of tearing, he was busy looking at Drake, who filled the gymnasium.

‘Other heirs must be similar.’

He smiled lightly and looked at Dialun and Palen standing next to him.

Palen, who felt sympathy for Dorian, was so surprised that he sat down, and Dialun drooled at the drake, who couldn’t see it all at first glance.

‘The other side is out of their minds.’

Jesser, who was standing in the center, could not believe the situation, his eyes wide open.

It was as if Dorian, who had been ignoring his existence, had properly beaten him and left his soul.

Last saw Addis.

‘This is… There is no change.’

It’s not out of the ordinary either.

He was the only one in this gymnasium to look at Dorian and Drake with plain eyes that were not surprised.

I’ve thought about it before, but it seems that large-scale merchants aren’t run by just anyone.

-Your face is all yellow.

Lars looked around and grinned.

-Seeing that the fussing has quieted down, it feels like eating mint chocolate ice cream!

Raon smiled and nodded.

‘okay. It’s cool inside.’

When I returned, I felt relieved when I saw the merchants who had been arguing that the fight was over, collapsed with pale expressions.

“Whoa… .”

I looked to the side at the sound of breathing. Dorian shook his shoulders, his fists clenched. Seeing that his mouth was curled up, he seemed to be delighted with the people’s reactions.

After a short but long silence, the mouths of the people who had stopped as if time had stopped began to open.

“Um, is that Drake? Aren’t you a dragon?”

“Even now, it’s much bigger than the Drake Master Jesser brought… .”

“If I spread my head and tail, it would be over 35m?”

“W-where did you get that?”

“Look at that. The scales are still alive. Like Master Jesser, it means we caught him this time!”

“Brother Dorian moved only with the White Sword Dragon. then… .”

“The two of you must have caught that monster.”

Merchants swallowed dry saliva in admiration for Drake’s overwhelming size and Raon’s might.

“Oh, no… .”

Jesser moved to Dorian’s side, his lips quivering.

“What, what! Where did you get this!”

For the first time, Dorian was reflected in his pupils, who had been ignoring his brother’s existence.

“I got it.”

Dorian shrugged as if it was nothing.

“Where did you get it!”

Jesser screamed as if he had forgotten that he had ignored Dorian until now.

“I caught it from a distance.”

Dorian replied leisurely as if he had learned from Raon and smiled.

“You kid, you’re teasing me… .”

“Kuhm!”

As Jesser was about to pounce on Dorian, Addis came close, clearing his throat.

“Dorian. Spread the drake properly.”

“Ah yes!”

Dorian ran over, ignoring Jesser, and stretched the drake’s head and tail in a straight line.

Even in its crumpled state, it was bigger than Jesser’s drake, but when it was stretched out, the difference widened to the point where it looked like an adult and a baby.

“Looking at it this way, the size difference is much bigger… .”

“I know. Master Jesser’s drake is about 25m, and Master Dorian’s drake is over 35m.”

“At this level of difference, it can be said that the successor has already been decided.”

“Turn it off!”

“It’s ruined… .”

The merchants following Jesser shook their heads as if they thought it was over and let out a sigh until the ground collapsed.

Addis nodded while listening to the merchants’ reactions.

“The results are out. with this… .”

“yet! Not yet!”

Jesser raised his hand and stepped forward. His arrogant eyes were filled with urgency.

“What do you mean yet?”

Addis slowly turned her gaze to Jesser.

“I admit that Dorian’s drake is bigger. But big isn’t all good, right? The durability of claws, teeth, and bones is probably better than the one I caught. there… .”

He pointed at Dorian’s drake and narrowed his eyes.

“Look at those wounds. Aren’t the scales full of cracks? I’m sure the inside is a mess and there’s not much to use!”

“surely… .”

“If it was that big, it would have stabbed Gangi several times. It may have broken your stomach.”

“The scales are very messy.”

Not only Jesser, but also the merchants who followed him raised their voices to seize the last chance.

Raon laughed, enjoying their outbursts.

‘I’m more confident with that.’

Drake has lived for a long time and has many wounds here and there, but the only cause of death is a sword strike to the head.

If someone who knows how to see properly comes, they will be astonished at the neatly caught wounds over 30m in size.

“Uh, um… .”

Dorian didn’t catch it himself, so he rubbed his stomach pouch as if he was anxious.

“You’re not saying anything wrong.”

Addis looked at the two drakes in turn and nodded.

“Ah, then… .”

“But I’m not the one who decides that.”

He pointed to the gymnasium door, where he heard heavy footsteps.

“The client will decide for himself.”

As soon as those words were finished, the gymnasium door opened, and men full of thick muscles, which would not be strange even if they were orcs, entered.

The gray haired old man walking in the lead was the most unusual. He had more muscle than anyone else, but he was as short as a child and had a long beard.

-oh!

Lars looked at the old man and licked his lips.

– It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a short-haired boy!

‘Puddy… .’

Raon narrowed his eyes as he listened to Lars’ words.

‘Are the demons calling dwarves short?’

As Lars said, the master of the Gray Hammer Guild was not a human, but a dwarf. It was also a noun among the nouns that spread their name widely on the continent.

“Meet the owner of the gray hammer.”

Addis stepped forward and bowed to the dwarf.

“It’s an exaggerated greeting. Sepia Sanghoju.”

The Dwarf brushed his beard down and slightly lowered his head.

“I’m meeting Borgos, who belongs to the continent’s artisans, so I have to be polite.”

Addis smiled and shook her head.

‘Borgos… .’

This dwarf was a man who was on top of the craftsmen of the continent, along with Vulcan, who made the Jecheon sword, and Kuberad, who made the requiem sword.

“There’s nothing to come out if you try to float it… omg!”

Borgos, who had been waving his hands, ran forward with his eyes wide open.

Although it was short-legged, it jumped at tremendous speed and stood in front of Dorian’s drake.

“What is this!”

The eyes of Borgos, who seemed not to be surprised if a meteorite fell from the sky, trembled as if they had been electrocuted.

“A drake this size! It’s almost at the level of an adult dragon!”

He bit his lip, saying he had never seen a drake this size in his long life as a craftsman.

“That’s also a water-attribute drake with the best coldness for making weapons!”

“Look at this wing bone here! It doesn’t look like it will break!”

“What about these scales! It’s full of cold air, so even if you put it together, it’ll become a scale armor that won’t go through your sword?”

The artisans who came with Borgos looked over at Drake and let out big laughs. It looked like he wanted to take it home and make a weapon.

“Stupid things.”

Borgos clicked his tongue as he looked at the artisans.

“You don’t see what you need to see, and you only see other things.”

“yes?”

“Uh, what is that… .”

He ignored the questions of the artisans and headed to where Drake’s head was.

“It’s a blow.”

Borgos swallowed dryly, looking at the small sword mark that had sprouted from the center of Drake’s head.

“yes?”

“This huge monster was caught with a single sword.”

He raised his gaze. The trembling pupil stopped in front of Raon.

“Is it you?”

Borgos let out a thin breath and approached Raon.

“You can feel the unbelievable sword power from his young-looking face. Even the word genius is hard to describe.”

True to his name as a Continental Craftsman, he accurately grasped the strength of Raon, who hid his energy.

“May I ask your name?”

Raon nodded politely. He was of a different race, and I liked that he was treated politely even though he was a senior.

“My name is Raon Sieghart.”

“I have heard of that name. Is it the swordsman called the White Sword Dragon?”

Rumors had spread to the Gray Hammer Guild as well, and Borgos knew his nickname.

“I’ve seen swordsmen with the alias of Geomryong many times, but he’s outstanding among them. I think I know why this monster was struck.”

He looked down at his sword and nodded.

“Sepia Sanghoju. Our guild will choose this drake.”

Borgos approached Addis without even paying attention to the drake brought by another successor candidate.

“Hey, wait!”

Jesser dug between Borgos and Addis with his hands together.

“Look at the drake I caught! Although it is small, it hunts neatly and has almost no damage to its outer skin! Plus, it’s a wind-attribute drake, so the skeleton must be strong… .”

“Do you think my eyes are rotten?”

Borgos’s voice sank to the point of chilling.

“Uh, what is that… .”

“I checked your Drake as soon as he came in. I thought he had brought good things since he had a name called Zere.”

“Ah, then… .”

“But it seems that the name was a false name.”

Borgos glared at Jesser and furrowed his eyes.

“The outside of the drake you brought is definitely clean. But on the inside, it gave me a lot of shock. If it wasn’t enough to break through with strong force, he must have exploded with magic.”

“That, that… .”

“If that happens, the bones will be fragmented, and the inside of the scales will melt, leaving little usable parts. In other words, it means yawning.”

“ah… .”

Jesser’s face hardened as pale as a sheet of paper.

“I am you. No, I’ve been grabbing the hammer long before your father was born. He looked at me too easily for trying to fool me with his flimsy speech.”

Borgos clicked his tongue and turned around as if he was pathetic.

“You did something stupid. Jesser.”

Addis looked down at Jesser and let out a short sigh.

“Well, I just got the stuff anyway, just like my father said!”

“I never said anything like that. Even if you take the stolen goods to the customer, he said that the goods must not have any defects. You misunderstood.”

“iced coffee… .”

Jesser knelt on the floor and bowed his head. It was a look of despair, as if he realized that it was all over.

“No, it’s ruined… .”

“I can’t believe Master Jesser ended like this… .”

“Master Dialun didn’t even get attention.”

“So, then is Master Dorian really the successor?”

The eyes of the merchants standing behind Jesser and Dialun trembled pitifully like the wings of a butterfly caught in a wave.

“Has anyone predicted this outcome?”

“Oh, no. Who would have picked Master Dorian!”

“Then isn’t this an opportunity? A chance to stand behind Master Dorian?”

“Yes… .”

“If you do well, you might even become an executive… .”

Merchants threw away the rotten rope and slapped their butts off their chairs to get on the newly descended rope called Dorian.

When the results came out, he had the momentum to run to Dorian before anyone else.

“I’ll buy your Drake.”

Borgos approached Dorian and held out his hand.

“uh… .”

Dorian turned around and looked at Raon and Addis without holding her hand.

“… … .”

“It’s all over, what are you doing without holding on?”

Raon did not speak, and Addis wrinkled his forehead.

“no. It’s not over yet!”

Dorian smiled as if taking a hint from Raon’s silence and Addis’ words, and did not hold Borgos’ hand.

“Now we must start haggling!”

He raised his voice confidently.

“right.”

Addis nodded softly and walked over to Dorian’s side.

“If an item has been brought in according to the request of the client, it is also a merchant’s job to raise the price of the item as much as possible.”

A proud smile bloomed on his lips for the first time.

“Now you are at the starting point. Dorian.”

* * *

Dorian and Borgos entered the meeting room inside the headquarters and began negotiations.

Behind the two stood Raon and Borgos’ disciple.

“I’ll buy all of the drake’s horns, teeth, claws, skins, and bones, as you requested at the beginning.”

Borgos raised his gaze and met Dorian’s eyes.

“Let me be honest. The drake you caught is the first-class item I’ve ever seen, so I don’t know the market price.”

“Ah yes.”

Dorian nodded stiffly.

“Since the corpse of an ordinary drake costs between 800 and 1000 gold coins, I wonder how about 4 gold bars.”

Borgos wrote 4 gold bars in the contract Dorian gave him.

“Four gold bars?”

One gold bar is worth a thousand gold coins. It was a truly staggering amount.

“Um… .”

Dorian glanced back, as if asking for an opinion.

Raon looked at Dorian and slightly averted his eyes.

“I’m sorry, but that price seems a little tough.”

Dorian swallowed dryly and shook his head.

“Then I’ll add 300 gold coins to 4 gold bars. How is it?”

Borgos added 300 gold coins to the amount written on the contract.

“Then 4300 gold coins… .”

Dorian gasped and turned around.

“hmm.”

Raon lowered his eyes as if he didn’t like it this time.

“Well, that’s a bit too… .”

“Kuhm! nice 600 gold coins for 4 gold bars!”

“Huh!”

Dorian turned around again, and Raon still did not raise his gaze.

“Ouch… .”

Borgos groaned without hearing Dorian’s words. Now you know who sets the price.

“good! Make it so big that you can’t refuse! I’ll do it for 5 gold bars!”

5 gold bars. Eventually, the price went up to 5000 gold coins.

“Keep it off!”

Dorian screamed and turned around. Both hands were trembling as if to accept it quickly.

Raon shook his head with a calm expression.

“omg!”

“uh… ?”

“under!”

Dorian, Borgos, and even his apprentice opened their eyes wide.

Unlike them, who were stunned, Raon sipped tea calmly with his arms crossed.

-hey.

Lars tilted his head.

-How much is that drake?”

‘I don’t know.’

I heard that the stuffed drake that Dialun brought cost about 1000 gold coins, but I don’t know how much that drake costs.

-But why are you refusing?

‘Originally, there is a saying to decline three times when negotiating.’

-You did it 4 times?

‘I tried it one more time just in case.’

-Are you really crazy? .

Lars let out a fuss as if he was dumbfounded.

“I’m going crazy.”

Borgos frowned and raised his head.

“If I leave like this, I might have to take the successor test again, right?”

He gripped the table tightly as if threatening.

“Huh!”

Dorian panicked and turned around, but Raon was still calm.

[The test was to bring Drake’s claws, teeth, horns, and bones. Tell him he wasn’t done with the deal.]

This is not a bluff. Addis obviously said to bring the drake, but he didn’t say to sell it unconditionally.

“Sir, the test was to bring me Drake’s bars, claws and teeth, horns and bones. He said he wasn’t closing the deal. Heck!”

While talking, Dorian even spat out the unnecessary word ‘deliver’.

“Ouch… .”

Borgos looked up at Raon and trembled his chin.

-What secret power!

Lars looked at it and opened his mouth.

-If you’re going to do this, sit in front of you!
