Chapter 494
Raon swallowed dry saliva as he saw the message that Jealousy had been opened.
‘Why does jealousy appear here?’
I got <jealousy> from Envy, but I wasn’t jealous of anyone.
An assassin who had nothing in his previous life had gained a family, a teacher, and a colleague, and he had a goal to achieve even in his lifetime, so there was no time to think about jealousy.
‘I thought I couldn’t use this ability.’
I thought that I was satisfied with my current talent and position, so I couldn’t use my ability at all unlike sloth, but I never imagined that it would be open like this.
In particular, Cheryl is not an object of jealousy, but a person who is respected and envied. I don’t know why this ability came up in front of her.
A new message came to Raon’s eyes as he frowned at the thought of why Jealousy was open.
[The emotion of <jealousy> does not exist for the target.]
[The attribute of <Envy> will be converted to <Envy>.]
[Currently, you can learn the martial arts of <Cheryl>, the object of envy.]
As soon as I read the messages that followed, I could see why the jealousy opened up in front of Cheryl.
‘Jealousy turned into envy and was applied.’
Jealousy and envy are the emotions of a single difference.
Both envy the person, but jealousy contains malice and envy contains goodwill.
The system seemed to use a similar but different feeling of envy for herself who is not jealous of anyone.
‘There… .’
<Envy>’s ability is working properly.
According to Lars, Envy has the ability to become stronger when she is jealous of others.
Likewise, as much as he admires Cheryl, he has the ability to quickly learn her main skill.
– What crazy!
Lars squealed as he glared at the message.
-Did you get a hellfire on your head! stay stuck Why are you blaspheming on the subject of the system!
The boy grabbed his hair and shook his head.
‘I know. I didn’t expect to be so considerate.’
Raon smiled happily as he read the message.
‘Perhaps because it was made by the Lord of Wrath, its performance is amazing.’
-Keugh… .
Lars showed a bizarre expression, half delighted and half frowning, probably because he hadn’t heard a compliment in a long time.
-shut up!
However, in the end, it seemed that he was annoyed, so he cursed and punched him.
-Why is this guy the only one doing things so well! Why is there a sky!
‘There is a saying that heaven helps those who help themselves. because you work hard It’s going well.’
-There is no one in the world who does not live hard!
‘You are there. You who always play, eat and complain.’
-100 million… .
Lars couldn’t answer, only opened his mouth.
Sheryl tilted her head as she smiled at the bewildered Lars.
“Raon?”
She waved her hand in front of her as if she was okay.
“Oh, sorry.”
After Raon bowed his head to Cheryl, he continued the words he hadn’t said before.
“The Great Lord and the Cheongeomdae are in a much higher position than us, so I meant to thank you for protecting us like now.”
“The family members don’t talk like that. There is no high or low between the same great stocks.”
Cheryl shook her head, telling her not to say such trivial things. Her blunt words resonated in her heart.
The system wasn’t wrong. He was a man worthy of envy.
‘Then there’s something I need to know for sure.’
It is said that as jealousy was opened, the ability to quickly acquire the special skills of the object of envy was created.
Since Cheryl was chosen as the target of envy, we had to hear what her true specialty was.
‘Actually, there’s nothing he can’t do, but there must be something else he can do better.’
Cheryl is proficient in martial arts to the extent that she can teach all types of swordsmanship, but she is not a master swordsman.
I had to know for sure because there would be some things I learned with concentration.
“It’s out of the blue, but can I ask you one question?”
Raon took a step closer to Cheryl, who was leaning against the wall.
“say.”
Cheryl nodded as if to say something.
“I know you are good at most swordsmanship, but are there any swordsmanship you are particularly confident about?”
“It’s so out of the blue.”
Cheryl laughed. Maybe it was because she thought she was interested, but she didn’t seem to be in a bad mood.
“As you can see, my real weapon is a pair of swords.”
That’s right. Cheryl wears one sword on her back, but when she unleashes it, it is split into two swords, a white sword and a black sword.
“Of course, I am confident in my dual swordsmanship, and I have mastered the straight sword that increases the accuracy of the two swords, the absolute sword that cuts off the flow of the opponent, the chump sword that balances it, and the illusion sword and transmutation sword that confuses the opponent.”
“Since you use twin swords, you must be strong in Aura management.”
Using twin swords means putting an aura on both swords. It was only natural that he was good at managing Auras.
“I’m more confident than a lazy elf.”
Cheryl frowned as she looked in the direction Rimmer had passed.
“Thank you for telling me.”

“Nothing.”
She waved her hand with a cool smile.
‘Good.’
Since it meant that Sheryl’s skills such as double swordsmanship, straight sword, absolute sword, double sword, illusion sword, transfiguration, and Aura operation could be further developed, my heart pounded quickly.
“Lord. Could you watch my swordsmanship for a moment?”
“what? here?”
“yes.”
It was something he could say because he confirmed that there was no one around through Lars.
“A guy like you really is… .”
Cheryl closed her eyes and sighed. She quickly nodded her head, knowing that she, too, had no risk factor.
“Because I don’t have much time. If you are going to do it, do it quickly.”
“yes.”
Raon nodded and pulled out the Celestial Sword and the Soul Sword.
‘It must be fun.’
With a small smile, he opened the mad sword with the Jecheon sword in his right hand, and caused a snow wind sword with the requiem sword in his left hand.
Because he only used swordsmanship without an aura, his strong spirit was not revealed, but the sharpness of his swordsmanship seemed to have grown stronger.
After unleashing both swordsmanship to the end, Raon looked at Cheryl.
“You’ve never learned twin swordsmanship, have you?”
Cheryl crossed her arms and frowned.
“yes.”
What I learned in my previous life was not dual swordsmanship. It had to be said that he had never properly learned how to kill people with a weapon in both hands.
“I knew it.”
Cheryl nodded and continued.
“Double swordsmanship does not mean holding a sword in both hands. Each one uses their own swordsmanship with both hands, but the two swordsmanships must work in harmony. You are no different from simply unfurling two swords one after the other.”
She made a sword with both hands and reenacted the scene from before when she unleashed the mad sword and snow wind sword.
Since it was his first swordsmanship, his movements were awkward, but the harmony between the two was much better than his own.
“In this way, if the sword in the left hand moves to the right to attack, the sword in the right hand must move to the left to defend. Or, both of you can launch an attack aimed at a different place.”
Raon whirled the ring of fire and listened to Cheryl’s advice and demonstrations.
‘I know how it feels.’
Perhaps because Cheryl, the target of envy, showed it to me, it seemed like I could do something similar even if I unfolded it right now.
“It’s ambiguous because the space is small and there’s no time, but you should have known the feeling.”
“I will try again.”
“That doesn’t happen right away. No matter how genius you are… .”
“Please look at me one more time.”
Raon shook his head and raised his two swords again. As he lowered his center of gravity, he remembered the part Cheryl had pointed out.
I drew an image of a mad sword and a snow wind sword in my head and thrust the two swords forward.
‘Lest the left and right swords interfere with each other.’
The two swords and the two martial arts unfolded the second herbivore, looking for a way to move faster and stronger without blocking each other’s path.
Whoa!
The moment the Jecheon Sword reveals the fangs of a mad beast, a blue north wind arises from the Soul Sword. Attack and defense intersect as if interlocking, and the air changes in an instant.
The Celestial Sword retreated back and wrapped itself in a shield of flame, while the Requiem Sword fired forward and extended its blade of cold wind.
Raon used the two swords in reverse again and bit his lip.
The technique of the double swordsmanship that Cheryl taught me pierces my head and body in an instant.
It’s not just the utility of the ring of fire. It was the power of growth obtained through jealousy that turned into envy.
“ah… .”
Cheryl trembled as she looked at Raon’s sword.
‘How can this… .’
Raon’s double swordsmanship, which was vague enough to be called a swordsmanship with a bizarre combination of actual fighting and pretense, achieved rapid growth in this short moment.
The two swords did not interfere with each other in the slightest, and were living and moving in harmony with each other with their own purpose.
It’s still crude, but unlike before, it’s not strange to call it a double swordsmanship.
‘Does this make sense?’
I only gave one demonstration and advice, but it seems like I’ve been training for several months.
I knew Raon had talent, but this didn’t make sense.
“Try this too.”
Unlike the first time Cheryl showed her, she demonstrated the skill of dual swordsmanship, an intermediate skill. It was not an attack and a defense, but a trick to achieve an attack and an attack and a defense and a defense.
Raon quietly watched the scene, then slowly raised his two swords.
The first start was vague. Because attack is not attack, and defense is not the same as defense.
However, from the second swordsmanship, the two swords began to dance.
The two swords, which had been moving mainly for defense, extended along with Raon’s left foot, causing a thrilling sword force.
I told them about one, but it seemed to pass by two and move on to three.
“What… .”
Cheryl’s eyes widened and shed some air.
“All over again! Try this too!”
Forgetting to say that she would leave before sunrise, she began to teach Raon the tricks of higher level martial arts.
* * *
cooong!
Raon lowered the Jecheon Sword and raised the Soul Sword. The two swords crossed in an oblique line, creating a deep resonance.
A red and blue light flashed on the blade as if the upper and lower teeth of the beast were meshing together.
The Jecheon Sword led the attack with the flames of madness, and the Requiem Sword built a wall of frost with the coldness of Glacia.
It was a perfect harmony between attack and defense, but as if they were connected by two black strings, attack and defense were switched in an instant, and a pair of swordsmanship was achieved in the form of a mad sword for defense and snow wind sword for attack.
Chiyiying!
The development of the mad sword ended before the snow wind sword, but the movement of the jecheon sword did not stop yet.
The second half of the snow wind sword, which should be unfolded by the requiem sword, was wrapped around the herbivore, and the wind of frost blew the land where the night had come.
Raon lowered his stance after unleashing both the mad sword and the snow wind sword.
Crossing your arms, lower the Jecheon Sword to the upper left and the Requiem Sword to the lower right, then raise the Cartoonist and Glacia to the extreme.
Red salt boils over the Jecheon Sword, and waves of frost overflow over the short blade of the Requiem Sword.
Stepping on the left foot, he extended both swords at the same time.
The frosty smoke rising from the Requiem Sword pierced the air, and the silver sword dream that burned from the Jecheon Sword tore through the space like a dream.
Simultaneous use of both seasons.
I’ve used it before, but now it’s different from then.
Seo-yeon and Eun-gum-mong were not separate, but like one herbivore, assisting each other in gaps and piercing through the enemy’s throat that was drawn on their heads.
It was not two swordsmanships performed at the same time, but one double swordsmanship.
“Whoa… … ”
When Raon caught his breath and lowered his two swords, he felt a faint movement of people from behind.
“I don’t know how to describe a guy like you.”
Cheryl sighed and shook her head.
“I only taught you the basics of dual swordsmanship and aura operation, but what if I went to the advanced level alone… .”
She stuck out her tongue, saying that she might get tired of Raon’s talent.
“Can you stay here like this?”
Raon smiled lightly as he swiped the Jecheon Sword and the Requiem Sword.
“Because it is the last day of the festival, all eyes are on the plaza. Day and night, all the gazes that followed me have disappeared.”
“Ah, indeed.”
Everyone had flocked to the plaza because Xin Zhuo Ling had said that he would use a large-scale firecracker magic to decorate the end of the festival.
“It seems that the heads of Xinzhou Wuling are also busy to finish the festival well. but… .”
Cheryl narrowed her eyes as she looked around.
“The boundaries are much stricter than usual. Just like preparing for war.”
“What is your intention?”
“I don’t know. It’s because the Shinju Five Spirits themselves are an ambiguous group that doesn’t know what their intentions were.”
She licked her lips, saying that she did not know the purpose of Xin Zhuo Ling.
“It certainly is.”
Raon rubbed his chin and nodded.
“Are you not going to see fireworks or something? Leaving everyone else to play?”
“I’m protecting Martha in Runando.”
He pointed to the room Runan and Martha share. Martha hasn’t woken up yet to see if she’s still clearing the ground.
“That gang will be guarded by the Cheongeomdae, so come back.”
Since Cheryl came as Sighart’s representative, she beckoned to participate in the event until the end.
“Take the other guys with you.”
“hmm… .”
Raon looked up at the sky. It was a dark night sky with no moon, so I thought I could see the fireworks well.
“All right.”
I bowed my head and entered the inn and knocked on Runan’s room.
“why?”
Runaan popped out with the ice cream in her mouth.
“What are you doing?”
Denning Rose also came out with Runan, her hands full of pictures. She hated herself now that she wasn’t surprised to see that.
“omg! You look so good when you sweat!”
Ensia, who was behind him, repeatedly tapped the button on the camera. It’s an early game, so I don’t know why it doesn’t break down.
Raon covered his face and approached the three.
“Since it is the end of the festival, it would be good to participate.”
After checking on Marta lying in bed, I told the three of them to go to the final event.
“There is someone else to protect Martha, so don’t worry.”
“okay.”
Runaan nodded as if he recognized who the man was and put on his coat.
“yes!”
“All right.”
Encia immediately jumped out without asking, and Denning Rose quietly joined her side.
When Raon was about to go out to the central plaza with the three men and the windmill guarding the mansion, he ran into Burren and other swordsmen coming in through the main gate.
“Why are you coming back?”
“It’s kind of like leaving you alone to play.”
Burren smiled awkwardly and scratched his head.
-Your eye color has also changed a lot.
Lars looked at Burren’s eyes, whose angles were more gentle than before, and licked his lips.
– Tsk, it was good when there was poison.
‘The poison is still there.’
Raon shook his head. Burren still has a goal of gaining acceptance from her father.
No, now that he was thinking of overcoming Karun, his venom was growing stronger without being revealed.
“Everyone follow me.”
He beckoned Burren and the Gazebo to follow him.
“Martha… ah!”
Burren nodded as if he understood what was going on.
“That’s it.”
Raon smiled lightly and headed for the central plaza with the windmill.
“I’m so ignorant of a festival.”
Dorian shook his head as he took a snack from his stomach pocket and ate it.
“It must have been a lot of preparation to spread the name of Shin Ju-O-Ling and increase his reputation. of course… .”
Burren smiled as he pointed at Raon.
“That guy would have taken all that fame.”
He shook his head, muttering that he was a sucker for fame and money.
“I think they’re trying to make a fuss with fireworks.”
Crane grinned at Burren’s words.
“What are fireworks?”
“It’s an event to announce the end of the festival by setting off fireworks magic in the night sky.”
“The festival will succeed, but Xinzhu Wuling is ruined.”
Burren smiled as he looked up into the air.
Even though it was not yet time to set off the magic firecrackers, the plaza was full of people. Since it was the last event, everyone seemed to have participated.
“It’s crazy!”
“I thought you wouldn’t come… .”
“Doesn’t it feel different from before with White Sword Dragon or Gwangpungdae?”
“I’ve seen crazy duels like that, and it can’t look the same as before.”
“I thought the Shinju Five Lings were amazing, but Yukhwang is different.”
People waiting for the firecracker event recognized Gwangpungdae and swallowed dry saliva.
They didn’t cheer like before, but just looked at them quietly as if in awe. I think it still came as a shock to me that I defeated three of the best masters at once.
Raon exchanged greetings with the officers of the neutral forces who were greeting him, and then headed to the VIP seat assigned to Sieghart.
After sitting in the designated seat, I looked at the podium built on the plaza. All four chiefs of Xin Zuo Ling came out and took their seats.
The evil swordsman closed his eyes completely as if ignoring them, and the ghost spear waved a hand the size of a pot lid as if he was happy.
After the evil sword, he sent a calm gaze, and the comic emperor nodded lightly.
‘It’s unexpected.’
I didn’t know about Comedy Festival or After Evil Sword, but I didn’t know that Sagumma and Ghost Spear would come to this place. It didn’t suit me so much that I even felt alienated.
‘Is this event really that important?’
While I was touching my chin thinking it was strange, a middle-aged man with a good impression came up above the fountain built right under the podium. Walking on water is not common. He was a well-trained master.
“Thank you for a beautiful night with us!”
The aura-covered voice spread throughout the square.
“I’m Kevan, the host of this event.”
The moderator, who introduced himself as Kevan, bowed his head toward the entire plaza.
“Are you ready to enjoy the finale of the festival?”
“Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
People responded with shouts that shook the entire plaza.
“I like the cheers. Then, from now on, let’s break off the end of the festival!”
As soon as he raised his hand, red flames shot skyward from the back of the podium.
Kwaaaaaaang!
The fireworks exploded with a deafening roar and covered the night sky like sunlight.
After that, yellow, blue, green, and purple flames explode in succession. A rainbow appeared in the dark night sky, brightening it as if it was daytime.
“Wowaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa”
“Are these fireworks?”
“Awesome.”
“It must have cost me some money.”
Gwangpungdae also opened their mouths as if surprised by the scale of the fireworks.
Raon licked his lips at the larger and more colorful fireworks than he had expected.
‘Can’t you apply that to martial arts?’
As he tried to observe more carefully, thinking of how to use firecracker magic for swordsmanship, sword-shaped fireworks shot up in the sky.
However, the firecrackers on the sword did not explode in a flashy way, revealing only a dark aura that was unmatched.
‘That’s… .’
not a flame It was a real sword.
Chaaaaaaaaaaaagh!
The sword fell with terrifying speed and shattered the host’s head and split the fountain. The transparent water boiled red and soaked the earth.
A man descends on the fire-stained earth.
The bright yellow eyes, as if a new sword were nesting under the red hair thicker than the blood, caused a violent thunderbolt.
Above the heavenly beauty, the powerlessness of the transcendent who ascended to the sky was revealed.
Beopbeobung!
Silence overflows beneath the bloody red firecrackers.
Only the sound of the man’s blue dragon robe bending in the wind signaled that time had not stopped.
“If there is no blood in the festival, it will be bitter.”
His gaze fell bent down on Raon.
“It’s late, but can you join me?”
