Chapter 556
Raon looked at Sylvia and opened his mouth. She let out her roar with her arms raised to the sky, like a slave who had won her freedom, not enough to shout her liberation.
‘Eh, how did this happen?’
I never imagined that Sylvia, who thought she would follow my training satisfactorily, would shout liberation like that. It felt like a nightmare.
– f*ck nightmares!
Lars came closer, his blue eyes widening.
– You were my mother’s nightmare!
The boy shook his head, saying he didn’t notice. I didn’t expect to be told that the cotton candy guy didn’t care. He couldn’t turn his head because he was dumbfounded.
“Uh, Mom.”
Raon raised his trembling fingertips and called out to Sylvia.
“Whoa… .”
Sylvia let out a long sigh and turned her gaze to Raon.
“It was really, really hard. You should train in moderation!”
She rolled her eyes, saying it was too painful to endure the training.
“Your mother loved it too. I laughed because her skills improved so quickly… .”
Raon was taken aback and stopped talking, calling her mother instead of mother as she did when she was little.
“It’s not that I laugh because I’m happy, it’s that I laugh because it’s hard! You ignorant son!”
Sylvia frowned and stamped her feet.
“ah… .”
Raon’s chin trembled as he saw Sylvia frowning.
“But my mother said she definitely wants to train hard… .”
“I didn’t know it would be like this! After being pointed out by you all day here, when you go back to the annex, you’ll be beaten again with night training! I want to train hard, I don’t want to die!”
She shook her head vigorously, saying that if you weren’t her son, she would have beaten you right away.
“What, what is it? Didn’t you just train here?”
Burren gaped in surprise.
“You said you did low-intensity training in the annex? He’s really crazy… .”
Marta frowned as if she hadn’t expected it to be that much.
“Demon Raon… .”
Runan said he was scared and his shoulders trembled.
“Ugh, if you stab it, it’s likely that poison will come out, not blood.”
Dorian backed away as if tired.
“Ugh… .”
Raon couldn’t bring himself to refute the captains and Dorian and chewed his lips hard.
“Uh, Mom. However, my skills definitely improved. No one has developed so quickly in Yukhwang!”
“It’s a skill created by grinding life span! If I had done just a little more, I would have really died!”
When Sylvia said that her lifespan was cut, there was really nothing to say.
-Puhehehehe!
Lars grabbed his stomach and started laughing.
-You see all the days your snout is still! It’s sweeter than eating mint chocolate!
The guy patted Sylvia on the back and muttered to her to do more.
“Raon. I’ve been in the annex for over 20 years. I did housework and tended the garden with her ladies-in-waiting, but I gave up all my training as a swordsman.”
Sylvia lifted her wide eyes.
“How can I follow your training just because I have Danjeon? It’s not that your skills have improved, it’s that you survived!”
She shook her head wildly. Her sloppy blonde hair rippled as the sand soaked through it.
“No, then please speak.”
“You didn’t listen to me even when I said it!”
“Uh, when… .”
“I thought about taking a break or doing some other training, but you kept saying that the basics were important and only repeating the basic swordsmanship endlessly!”
Sylvia quickly moved her lips as if she had been caught well.
“On top of that, you keep pointing out things without a word of praise, can you stand it if you’re like me?”
“I like that better… .”
“what?”
“no.”
Raon scratched his cheek and lowered his voice. His previous life was taken for granted, and he was rarely praised for learning from Glenn or Lee Mer.
I just did what I usually do, but I don’t know what to do because I get cursed at.
“It’s done. I am really tired now.”
Sylvia lay on the floor in a chair. She said she was going to rest for a while and closed her eyes.
-Didn’t the king always say that? There’s no one in the Demon Realm who’s crazy about training like you.
Lars shook his hand with a smile on his lips.
-mom! Don’t worry. From now on, the human king will take care of you.
‘Ouch… .’
It was so resentful that the demon king could not refute the fact that he tapped Sylvia on the shoulder, saying he was human.
“I knew it would be like this.”
Rimer came to the side and smiled.
“I should have given you a moderate amount of freedom like this great master.”
He shrugged his shoulders, saying that education these days requires both freedom and coercion.
“ha… .”
Raon let out a sigh. This situation of being ridiculed even by the neglectful teacher was too cramped.

“You are too angular. People sometimes have to be round… .”
“Tell me about your mission.”
“I am quick-tempered. It is not a big task.”
Rimer licked his lips and opened the mission book.
“This is a message from the Sinigan branch, and there is a place in the south that seems to be living in the North and South Alliance, and there are a lot of people going missing, so please do some research.”
“It’s a North-South alliance… .”
Contrary to his father’s name, he hadn’t heard about the North-South Alliance itself in a long time. He had been quiet for a while, so it wasn’t unusual to increase wild vegetables.
“Daeju-nim always seems simple, but he brings tough missions… .”
“that’s right. It was strangely difficult.”
“Dumb hand.”
Burren, Martha, and Runan frowned, doubting Rimer’s skill at choosing missions.
“I can’t help it! Everything comfortable and good is taken from above!”
Rimer waved his hand, asking if he wanted to be promoted to Jeonju if he wanted a good assignment.
“Anyway, departure is in three days. It’s not an urgent mission, but be prepared thoroughly. And you learn some self-control.”
He patted Raon’s shoulder and quietly disappeared.
“Whoa… .”
Raon sighed as he looked at Sylvia, who didn’t wake up until Rimer left. It seemed that she really intended to rest like this.
“Now, our demon lieutenant will also be quiet.”
Crane smirked as he looked back at the windshield prosecutors.
“Doesn’t it feel good already to think that monster will be down for a while?”
He shook his head, saying that not only Sylvia, but also their own training was too difficult.
“Isnsia-nim there? I want to leave a picture of my shocked expression… hmm?”
Crane stopped talking and tilted his head. The prosecutors just stood there blankly without saying anything.
“Why are there no words? If not at a time like this, I will make fun of you!”
“Back, back… .”
“back? what’s behind… omg!”
He turned his head and stopped. Raon, whose eyes were darker red than the sun, was breathing fiercely.
“Ra, Raon! I-I just… .”
Raon grabbed Crane’s head as he tried to run away and forced his head to turn.
“I don’t intend to be quiet, I intend to make you quiet, how is it?”
He looked at the swordsman in the windmill one by one with a creepy smile.
“I just need to teach you like a mother.”
“Oh, that, that’s physically impossible… .”
Crane smiled awkwardly and shook his head.
“We’re not as talented as Sylvia-sama, and since it’s a mission, we have to prepare… .”
“It only takes an hour to prepare.”
“yes?”
“From now on, we will conduct combat training before going on a mission. Of course, the opponent is me, and the beginning… .”
Raon rolled his eyes as if choosing his first opponent.
“Ugh!”
“Hee!”
The Gwangpungdae swordsman withdrew as if it were natural and made a sparring ground with Crane.
“crane. decided on you.”
Raon waved his hand as if to ask him to come in.
“Why me again!”
* * *
“Huh.”
A woman with thin eyes yawned so loudly that her mouth was torn as she looked out the window where the early morning breeze was blowing.
“Lysia. Are you that bored?”
The branch manager with a benevolent face, who was sitting at the desk in the back, smiled lightly.
“It’s always boring to be on duty, but the area called Sinigan itself is so boring. The mountains that are said to have appeared in the south are also small, and the Rakion family is in the east, so even if you leave it alone, it will go back on its own.”
The woman called Lisa yawned again and put her chin on the desk.
“That’s why you applied for a comeback at the end of the year.”
The branch manager put down the book he was reading and shook his head.
“The main house is a cold place unlike this branch. I don’t even look at you even if I’m a little behind. If you stay there for a month, you will miss this boring town.”
“I came from my parents’ family too, but you ignore me so much!”
Lysia looked at the branch manager and pouted.
“And it wasn’t just because I was bored here that I applied to return.”
“then?”
“On January 1st of next year, the life and death of the head of Gwangpung and his father will be held. I really want to see that battle!”
She threw her eyes out the window and clasped her hands together.
“I’ve seen many handsome men in my life, but it was the first time I saw a beauty like Raon. Do you think she beats the king with that handsome face, very… .”
Lysia looked at the moon with hazy eyes, as if Raon had dreamed of beheading her father.
“It looks like you’re hitting candles, but your father is strong. He had a reputation as an ax master even before he was born. To be honest, I think it’s hard to beat. A draw is best.”
“Raon-nim caught the light dragon Kaibar, right? It does not lose to humans.”
“Your father is also a warrior who can catch a dragon when the opportunity arises.”
“Whose side is the branch manager on?”
“Of course, the head of the storm wants to win. I just want to say that the enemy should not be ignored.”
As the branch manager waved his hand, a soldier standing guard outside the branch entered.
“Chief? I think you should come out.”
The warrior cautiously lowered his head.
“What is going on?”
The branch manager and Lycia got up from their seats and went outside.
“kid?”
Behind the warrior stood a young girl with striking red hair, her shoulders shrunken.
I was in such a hurry that I couldn’t even find a pair of shoes, and even my noble clothes were in tatters.
“Now, wait a minute, you… .”
The branch manager checked the girl’s face and widened his eyes.
“Isn’t it Sirlen!”
The girl was Sirlen, the youngest daughter of Rakion, Sieghart’s vassal family. She said hello to the Rakion Family Head on her birthday last year, so there was no way she was mistaken.
“what’s the matter! Was it an attack?”
The branch manager flirted as if he couldn’t understand why Sirlen, who was no different from Rakion’s forbidden jade leaf, was like a beggar.
“Just calm down and ask.”
Lisa went into the bathroom to bring warm water.
“That’s right.”
“My, please pass my words on to Sieghart!”
When the branch manager nodded and sighed, Sirlen grabbed his sleeve.
“Well, sit over here.”
The branch manager sat Sirlen, whose legs were shaking, on the sofa in the center of the branch.
“I’ll listen, so speak slowly.”
“Haaa… .”
Sirlen grabbed her chest and caught her breath. As if she had made up her mind, she raised her gaze and looked into the eyes of her branch manager.
“Yo, there are a lot of people who suddenly disappear from our family these days. People who were close to me left the family overnight without even saying goodbye.”
“hmm… .”
The branch manager groaned. The sudden and large disappearance of family members was not a good sign.
“On the other hand, unknown guests kept coming into the house to fill the seats of those who had left. I didn’t feel good, so I secretly hid to find out, but those people… .”
It was when Sirlen was about to continue speaking with a trembling voice.
Whoops!
The front door of the branch opened violently, and a red-haired middle-aged man entered the branch as if he were at home.
He was wearing a golden eyepatch over his left eye, but an enormous spirit was burning in the remaining right eye.
“Bee, inspector Bells?”
The person who opened the door of the branch and entered was Bells Rakion, the first son of the Rakion family and already listed as the successor.
“My brother has misbehaved.”
Wels bowed politely to the branch manager.
“These days, training is difficult, so I am using a group. Please understand even if I said something strange.”
He had a soft smile in contrast to his fierce eyes.
“Ugh… .”
Even though Sirlen saw her real brother, her hands trembled like an aspen tree as if she was frightened.
“hmm… .”
The branch manager held the hand of the trembling Sirlen and hid her behind his back.
“Of course I understand. But right now I’m having a personal talk with Miss Sirlen, so could you wait a little bit?”
“… … .”
Wels didn’t answer, and his cheerful smile darkened.
“I heard you.
“Check Bells?”
“Then there is nothing you can do.”
He raised the corners of his mouth and pulled out the longsword he was wearing behind his back.
“Hey, what are you doing! This is Sieghart’s branch… .”
“whatever.”
Bells ignored the branch manager’s words and slashed the raised longsword like a thunderbolt.
“Keugh!”
The branch manager pushed back Sirlen so that he wouldn’t be hit by the sword, and then set up a capital with the blade of his hand. Even in the midst of panic, his aura did not waver.
Chow ah!
However, Bells’s greatsword cut the branch manager’s aura like a piece of paper and cut his throat.
“ah… .”
“Ji, branch manager!”
The soldiers trembled their lips when they saw the head of the branch head who had fallen. It was as if he couldn’t believe the current situation.
“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
Lysia, who was getting out of the car, also dropped the tray and screamed.
“Ji, branch manager… Keugh!”
Licia quickly came to her senses and ran inside to send an emergency call to her family.
Bels seemed to have grasped Lysia’s thoughts and raised her longsword and fired it like a spear.
Koo-goo-goo-goo!
The long sword shattered the wall and split the body of Lysia in half behind it. Stone fragments soaked in her blood scattered pitifully.
“Brother.”
Bels looked down at Sirlen, whose blue lips were quivering with dry eyes.
“The reason people here die is because of you.”
After that, no human voice could be heard in the Sinegan branch. All that was left was screams and cries.
* * *
Raon left the room at dawn before the sun rose.
As always on mission days, Sylvia and her maids were standing in front of the door.
“young master. Have a safe trip.”
“Like my previous mission, you can’t push yourself too hard.”
“I dried the jerky. Eat when you feel hungry.”
Helen and the maids handed over the prepared beef jerky and snacks and bowed their heads to say goodbye.
This was something that happened consistently when I was on a mission. Only one was different.
“Raon. Come on.”
Sylvia, who couldn’t hide her dark complexion whenever she went on a mission, trembled slightly at the corners of her mouth.
“mother… .”
Raon frowned as he looked at Sylvia’s lips.
“Do you really like it when I go on missions?”
“Joe, what do you mean by good!”
Sylvia shook her head vigorously.
“It’s been a while since I woke up, so my face is frozen.”
She lifted the corners of her lips with her fingers and lowered them, smiling awkwardly.
“I heard everything you like in the room.”
Raon looked at Sylvia and narrowed his eyes.
‘I heard very clearly.’
I heard cheers from Sylvia’s room this morning. If he had been practicing Aura, his mana circuit would have been twisted and he would have suffered internal injuries.
“ah… .”
Sylvia stroked the back of her hair as if she had nothing to say.
“I did an extension, but it seems that the soundproofing is not good. Should I call someone back?”
She awkwardly rolled her eyes.
“after… .”
Raon sighed as he looked at Sylvia.
I thought it was annoying when they were nagging me, but I was a little sad because I was happy to leave like today.
– It’s fun.
Lars came over and patted him on the shoulder.
-I didn’t know it would be so much fun to see you wretched!
‘Noisy.’
Raon pushed Lars away and clicked his tongue briefly.
“Raon.”
Sylvia came forward and held her hand. It was accompanied by a soft smile that bloomed on his lips.
“It was really hard for my mother to train with Raon, but there were also good points.”
“Of course, the skills are fast… .”
“That’s not it.”
She shook her head resolutely.
“How hard you worked. I could see how strong you have become. That’s why you can spend it safely.”
Sylvia said it was just a joke and stroked Raon’s head.
“Go carefully.”
“all right.”
Raon smiled lightly and received Sylvia’s greeting.
“I’ll go back and see how much my skills have improved.”
“okay.”
Sylvia clenched her fists confidently.
Raon met eyes with Sylvia and the ladies-in-waiting in turn, as if her heart was now relaxed.
“I will be back.”
With those words, I finally left the annex.
As I passed through the garden, which turned slightly green with the coming of spring, I saw Sylvia’s fingertips still warm.
‘Everything else is fine, and I’m glad my mother is healthy.’
Sylvia’s complexion was always dark when her short circuit and mana circuit were broken, and she often fainted from exhaustion.
It was worthwhile to save Danjeon just because she became healthy.
‘That’s enough… .”
“Now is the real liberation! Guys! Scream!”
“Waaaaaa.”
By the time Raon had left the garden, Sylvia’s shouts could be heard from inside the annex.
It was a booming voice filled with joy, as if the kind words from earlier were false.
“Uh, Mom… .”
Raon looked back and licked his lips.
– Are you really satisfied?”
Lars smirked and patted his shoulder. The guy hid a deep sneer on this opportunity, as if he would repay all he had suffered.
-As expected, my mother likes the original king more than you!
“Ouch… .”
Raon did not answer, and headed towards the 5th gymnasium. His steps were rough like a storm.
‘I will destroy whoever the enemy is.’
-It’s an investigation mission, but who are you trying to destroy?
‘Shut up!’
