Chapter 422
the next morning.
After hearing Raon’s call-up order, the Gwangpungdan swordsmen entered the training ground.
“Weren’t you on break until tomorrow?”
Burren, who entered first, stood in front of the podium with his shoulders turned around as if he was sulking.
“therefore! Why are you calling me in the morning and making a fuss!”
Martha frowned, not even trimming her curly hair.
“Ahhhh… .”
Runaan yawned like a hippo with his eyes closed as if he hadn’t woken up yet.
“What else is going on today? Who hasn’t heard?”
“I don’t know.”
“You are such an impulsive person… .”
“Danju-nim, why haven’t you been able to poke your nose since yesterday?”
The Gwangpungdan swordsman’s eyes were tanned as if they had played to their heart’s content yesterday.
“Nuh, I don’t feel good… .”
“This is very strange… .”
Dorian and Crane looked around as if a sense of crisis had been activated and swallowed.
Percussion!
When everyone in the Gwangpungdan tilted their heads, saying it was strange, Raon walked out of the indoor training ground.
“Everyone has gathered.”
Raon went up on the podium and smiled softly.
-Seeing that you laugh evilly, you intend to bully me again.
‘No way.’
I have no thoughts of bullying. I sincerely wish them all the best. Even if it gets a bit extreme… .
“Didn’t I tell you to rest until tomorrow?”
Raon crossed his arms and looked over the tired-looking Gwangbangdan swordsmen.
“that’s right!”
“Don’t disturb the break, quickly disappear!”
“It’s scary because I don’t know what to do!”
The Gwangpungdan swordsmen frowned, saying not to disturb the rest.
“Are you really going to rest?”
Raon took a step in front of the podium.
“uh… ?”
“What, what does that mean?”
“Are you really taking a break?”
The Gwangpungdan swordsmen quickly blinked their eyes as if they didn’t understand.
“I’m going to give you a break until tomorrow, but are you really going to rest?”
Raon looked down at the Gwangpungdan swordsmen with cool eyes.
“I didn’t fight a battle on the way here, and I only moved, so I took two days off? Swordsmanship, footwork, and training that still need to be mastered are piled up like a mountain, but again! Are you playing? The world is full of Sieghart’s enemies, are you going to rest again?”
“ah… .”
“Ugh… .”
Whenever the word ‘again’ was emphasized, Gwangpungdan shook their shoulders and bowed their heads.
“okay. you can play you can play You can play to your heart’s content! You can eat, rest, and sleep. But I don’t know if I can catch up with my training later after playing like that. Then it will be a real hell, a living hell from which there is no escape.”
As if the word hell was carrying weight, the heads of the Gwangpungdan swordsmen bent to the point of touching the ground.
“Ha, I will… .”
“I train! You can do it!”
“Don’t give me a break, just let me do it from the beginning!”
“It’s really too much!”
“I’m not giving you a bottle, I’m not giving you medicine!”
The Gwangpungdan swordsmen shrieked and raised their heads.
“I will ask you again.”
Raon raised his hand, pretending not to hear the exasperated shouts of Gwangpungdan.
“Who wants to play today?”
“… … .”
Naturally, no one raised their hands.
“I was impressed by the fact that the members voluntarily participated in the training. We look forward to active participation in the future.”
Raon spoke like a soldier and nodded his head in satisfaction.
– Does ‘voluntary’ in the human world have a different meaning from that in the demon world… .
Lars tilted his head, digging into his ears with his round hands.
“Damn it!”
“That demon. No, son of the demon king!”
“You really won’t die pretty!”
“What are ghosts doing! I’m not going to catch that person!”
Gwangpungdan screamed and scattered throughout the gymnasium to prepare for training.
-sorry… .
Ras bowed his head like a defeated warrior.
-The ghost has attained Buddhahood, and the main king has been captured… .

After watching the Gwangpungdan’s training until noon, Raon headed to the infirmary where Muston was.
Muston hadn’t woken up yet, and instead of the healer, the Sword Demon was sitting next to him.
“Are you okay?”
“It’ll take some time to recover, but it’s not bad.”
The Sword Demon nodded awkwardly. He looked up and smacked his lips.
“It’s over before the aftereffects or life problems arise, so there won’t be any major problems.”
“thank god.”
“Have you ever learned how to beat people? It almost turned it into a state of art.”
He even said vulgar words that didn’t match his appearance, and flirted with how great he was.
“sorry. I think I put too much effort into listening to Master’s insults.”
“Come on, I don’t really have anything to say about that. I’m sorry.”
Feeling a bit embarrassed, I said it was because of Rimer’s curse, and the Sword Demon closed his eyes tightly.
“You made a mistake in disciple education, so I’ll punish you right away when he wakes up.”
The Sword Demon lowered his head, saying that it was cheap even if he was criticized for that part.
“no.”
Raon shook his head and looked at the Sword Demon.
‘It’s really different from what I’ve heard.’
There were many rumors that the Sword Demon was cool-headed like sharp eyes, but after living together, he was a warrior with a great personality.
I don’t know why this kind of person chose such an idiot as a disciple.
“Feed this when Muston wakes up.”
Raon put the internal medicine he had brought on the table.
“You will have internal injuries, so it will help you heal.”
“Thank you.”
The sword demon did not hesitate and received the medicine for internal injuries.
“Then I’ll come back later.”
Raon nodded and tried to return, but stopped and looked at the Sword Demon again.
“And now lower your voice. He’s a senior for a while, but I’m uncomfortable.”
The Sword Demon told me to lower my level first since we hadn’t stopped talking since we first met.
“that… I’ll do it later.”
The Sword Demon suddenly looked as if he had aged for several years and shook his head.
“… All right.”
I left the hospital room without questioning the sword demon’s complexion.
“… … .”
The Sword Demon exhaled a low breath as he looked at the door Raon had left.
‘You grew up well.’
He smiled lightly as he touched the neck glove that Raon had left behind.
“I want to see you soon.”

After lunch, Raon went to Milland’s office.
His office was as simple as before, but with one difference.
“What is that?”
A drunken red-haired elf was snoring and sleeping in the right corner.
“He passed out alone while drinking here.”
Milland put down the teacup and sighed.
“I don’t know how that cold-hearted Sieghart’s lightsaber became such an idiot.”
He shook his head, saying that there is no limit to what people can do.
“I understand. When Danju thought that this would be the end, he would dig a hole in the ground.”
Raon clicked his tongue as he saw Rimmer scratching his stomach and talking in his sleep.
“You’re not looking for that drunkard, so why are you here?”
Milland lifted her head, putting aside the papers on her desk.
“There is something I want to ask you.”
“What do you want to ask?”
“yes. Has the number of monsters decreased recently? I could hardly see… .”
“I wanted to tell that story too.”
He hit the desk with his palm and nodded.
“Mysteriously, since you left, the number of monsters has clearly decreased. The number of monsters coming from the wave has also decreased by more than twice compared to before.”
Milland shed a big smile, saying that the number of casualties was significantly reduced thanks to this.
“I think you were our fortune.”
He said thank you and took my hand.
“uh? The belly button is mine! my money. my fortune. But where is all my money… Keck!”
Rimer struggled while talking in his sleep, so he kicked him lightly and pushed him into the corner.
“Good for you.”
Raon looked at Milland’s excited eyes and smiled.
‘You kept your promise.’
I asked Sloth to manage the monsters, but it seemed that he adjusted the number appropriately.
‘Fortunately, it’s still there.’
There is no way that lazy demon king would do such a thing even after leaving this place. It was evident that he was still at the top of Mount Sterlin.
“My lord. Can I go to Mount Sterlin for a while?”
“Sterrin Mountain? Why are you there?”
“I want to look back after a long time. Even if you say something, check to see if the number of monsters has decreased.”
“Then prepare a scouting party.”
Milland nodded as if he knew.
“no. I want to go alone. Because we intend to move at a speed that is difficult for reconnaissance to keep up with.”
“Well, no one has been around that mountain more often than you, so it should be fine.”
He waved his hand as if he believed.
“I’ll be back soon.”
Raon lowered his head and headed for the door again.
“Oh, wait.”
Milland pointed at Rimer, who was snoring.
“Take that with you on the way.”
“… … .”
Raon shrugged his shoulders.
“I don’t know… .”
“hey!”
* * *
After lightly packing his things, Raon left for the lower part of the castle.
Standing on the pure white snowfield where no one stepped on, I felt refreshed as if my heart had been pierced.
‘As expected, the snow here is the best.’
It felt good to step on the snow as it is the place with the whitest snow in the world.
‘Shall we go?’
Without having to recall the old memories, I took steps toward the distant Mount Sterlin.
‘Wouldn’t be bad for practicing footwork.’
Since there is a distance to Mount Sterlin, I thought it would be better to practice walking instead of simply running while stepping.
Raon moved toward Mount Sturin while practicing harmonizing various martial arts at Taehwabo.
Because the level of force itself was different from before, I was able to arrive at the beginning of Mt. Sterrin before late at night even though I had been training.
Raon looked up at the mountain and narrowed his eyes.
‘The number of individuals has really decreased.’
Originally, the area around Mt. Sterrin was full of powerful monsters, but there weren’t many signs of monsters that felt like Milland said.
‘How did you do it?’
-What do you do?
Lars frowned as he looked up at Mount Sterlin.
– It’s all marinated.
‘Did you put it to sleep?’
-Sloth sprinkled the energy of sloth and put the monsters in this place to sleep.
The guy muttered that he was crazy sleeping to control the number of monsters by putting them to sleep.
‘Did you put it to sleep?’
I opened my senses of tales and looked closely at the monsters.
Just as Lars said, the monsters were asleep with low breathing sounds like bears in hibernation.
‘Really.’
It was a unique and effective solution to put monsters to sleep by spraying the energy of sloth around the mountain.
“Awesome.”
Raon smiled and climbed Mount Sterlin.
“Krrrr.”
“Kiaaaagh!”
However, because Sloth didn’t put everyone to sleep, a group of ice trolls who smelled people appeared.
“Kreuk?”
“Big… .”
They approached me with clubs as if they would attack at any moment, but as soon as they met their eyes, they stood still.
“Big… .”
“Kiyi… .”
They didn’t raise their spirits or use their auras, but the ice trolls were terrified just by making eye contact, and their whole bodies trembled like tails.
‘Is it instinct?’
As if wild instincts had warned him, he couldn’t think of attacking, and he couldn’t move as if he had become a stone statue on the spot.
‘I can feel that I have become stronger.’
When I first came here, I fought a life-and-death fight with those ice trolls, but now seeing them terrified just by looking into their eyes, I felt that I had grown up.
“Back off. Because I have no intention of touching you.”
Raon shook his hand at the intimidated monsters and continued to climb the mountain.
Monsters stronger than Ice Trolls appeared in the middle, but as soon as they met eyes, they also shut their mouths like dumb people who ate honey and couldn’t move.
As we climbed up the gorge, which was as sharp as an axe’s edge, it was bright before we knew it.
It was near the summit, so I was trying to speed up, but I felt a languid scent that seemed to loosen up my entire body.
“What is this?”
Although invisible, a faint black light crept up from the top of the mountain, creating a huge semicircular curtain.
‘Is it a shield?’
Even though it surrounded a wide range, the energy was so hard that it seemed impossible to break it easily.
‘This… .’
– Whoop whoop.
Raon looked at the wall and frowned, while Lars let out a sly smile.
-You just showed up.
Lars looked at the blurry black wall and nodded heavily.
‘Are you showing up now? Do you know what this is?’
-It’s a barrier.
‘Barrier?’
-That’s right. That jamtang put up a barrier so that no one else could enter.
The guy licked his lips, saying that it had been a long time since he had seen Sloth strike a barrier.
‘What is the effect of the barrier? Could it be that they will put you to sleep when you approach them?’
-It’s not like that. As soon as you come to this area, you will naturally feel annoyed, and your desire to climb the mountain will disappear. Annoyance is also the power of indolence.
Lars muttered that the method worked for both humans and monsters.
-However, for someone who feels the power of indolence like you, I don’t create a nuisance, I build a solid wall like this.
With the back of his hand, he tapped the black wall created by Sloth and stuck out his tongue.
-Even if the four weak guys knock on it for 100 years, this wall won’t break! You did very well in vain!
‘Then did you know this?’
-The main king is the lord of anger. Of course you knew!
Lars giggled, saying that he had worked hard to get here.
– You acted like you didn’t know just to see that flustered expression!
‘This child… .’
-Seeing your pissed-off expression after a long time, I feel refreshed!
Lars made a gesture of slitting his throat with his thumb, saying, “I am the enemy of the two slices of pineapple pizza I left uneaten yesterday.”
‘anyway… .’
That insectivore demon lord is no help.
Raon shook his head. He is not a lord of anger, he is a lord of childishness. He didn’t want to deal with it.
‘But it’s true that it looks solid.’
Looking at the barrier of sloth, I bit my lip.
I couldn’t feel it because it was hidden until now, but when it came into my eyes, I felt a magnificent power that gave me goosebumps.
As Lars said, the power of the indolence carried in the barrier was so strong that it seemed that no swordsmanship would be able to break it now.
‘As expected, I’m still far away.’
As we promised not long ago, we must not settle for Master Superlative rank. Don’t be satisfied with the present and move faster.
“Then should we wait for the sloth to happen?”
– Stupid guy. Sloth doesn’t wake up every year once you fall asleep. It won’t break unless you get close and beat it up.
Lars laughed, saying that no matter what he did, it would be futile.
– How does it feel to have a wall in front of you that you can never break? Will your stomach turn? The original king feels that feeling every day!
As if he didn’t want to miss this opportunity, he let out a quick-fire mockery.
-If you break through that wall and go inside today, the king will give you your abilities and characteristics!
Lars grinned, muttering that it would never happen. She had the happy expression you would see when eating pizza.
-Instead, if you can’t get through, order five pineapple pizzas as soon as you return!
‘Remember that promise.’
I wake up no matter what I do
Raon caught his breath and reached out his hand to the barrier of Sloth.
Whoops.
It was an action to check the strength of the barrier by directly touching it, but as if putting one’s arm into water, his body cut through the black energy and went inside.
-Eh… ?
“uh?”
Raon opened his mouth wide and pushed his left arm into the barrier. This time, too, his arm went in without any obstruction.
“Can it?”
It’s too easy.
-uh? uh huh oh oh oh oh!
Lars’ eyes fluttered like freshly caught fish.
– What else is this!
