Episode 813
“Hmm… .”
Merlin looked up at Rust, holding the acorn in his hand tightly.
‘What is that again?’
I was taking care of small happiness by watching Raon through the eyes of the squirrel family, but while I was taking care of the main body for a while, an
unknown incident occurred.
The blind Seonggeomryeonju was rolling around on the ground, beaten, and
Raon went down the mountain after a short conversation with the unknown woman.
I couldn’t tell what they were saying because I couldn’t hear properly, but looking at the expressions on the two people’s faces, I felt like something out of
the ordinary was being exchanged, and my stomach boiled.
“What are you?”
Merlin raised his finger and pointed a sharp point at Rust. Of course, it only looked cute because it looked like a squirrel.
“squirrel?”
Rust looked down at Merlin and tilted his head.
“It’s obviously an ordinary squirrel, but can it talk?”
She, too, failed to recognize Merlin among the squirrels and gasped.
“What are you… ?”
“I asked first!”
Merlin couldn’t stand it anymore and threw the acorn on the floor.
“evil!”
As soon as she threw the acorn, she realized it wasn’t hers and caught the rolling acorn again.
“It’s because of you!”
“Right… .”
Rust looked at Merlin and nodded slowly.
“Did you melt the squirrel’s soul so it wouldn’t strain its body? “It would be difficult to recognize you if you didn’t talk to me first.”
She exclaimed in admiration, saying it was great magic.
“I know I’m good! “Who are you?”
Merlin growled, baring his front teeth. She was still in her squirrel form, so even though she was angry, she just looked cute.
“I am… .”
Rust wasn’t about to reply, but instead turned his gaze down the mountain. She drew a soft smile as she captured Raon, who had just arrived in the village, in her eyes.
“hey!”
Merlin couldn’t stand it anymore and stamped his foot. A squirrel’s foot was
smaller than a flower petal, so it didn’t leave a trace the size of a speck of dust
on the ground.
“Why do you stop talking!”
She kicked Rust’s foot in exasperation. With a thud, the dust from Rust’s shoes fell.
“… … .”
Rust seemed to have lost interest in Merlin now, and only looked at Raon, with a blush on his cheeks.
Her expression became hazy, as if she was drawing the future.
“Answer me!”
Merlin captured the mana in the air with his teeth and bit into Rust’s leg. But
she didn’t seem to feel any pain and didn’t even look down at her mountain.
‘This woman… .’
Merlin looked up at Rust and narrowed his eyes.
‘I’m not human.’
That woman’s face was certainly beautiful, but strangely enough, she showed
the face that was most ideal for her.
Not magic or witchcraft, but innate power. It was no exaggeration to call it power, but it was a trait.
But that wasn’t the whole reason why I thought that woman wasn’t human.
‘The size of the soul.’
Inside that body, a soul larger than Glenn or Darkhan was stirring. A human
could never have a soul like that.
“What on earth are you looking at!”
Merlin bit his lip and launched the squirrel’s body. It was a huge burden on
my body, but I couldn’t sit still.
‘Raon?’
As I followed the gaze of the light pink woman floating in the air, I saw Raon. As expected, the conversation between the two people did not seem to be ordinary.
“you! “Why are you looking at mine?”
Merlin shook his head, blocking Rust’s gaze with his squirrel body.
“Mine?”
Rust’s gaze, which had been ignoring Merlin’s hitting and biting, was bent with an eerie coldness.
“squirrel. Be selective with your words. Because those could be your last words.”
“Now you’re showing your true colors!”
Merlin did a somersault and landed lightly on the ground. It was the pose of
a hero, kneeling on one knee and pounding the ground with his fist.
“Come at me!”
She stretched out her small fist, telling me to come as often as I wanted.
“Pathetic… hmm?”

As Rust watched Merlin’s punch, he felt eyes coming up from below the mountain. Lars felt her momentum a moment ago and raised her eyes.
‘this!’
I immediately calmed down, bent down and ran away from Lars’ gaze.
‘Dangerous… .’
I promised to wait quietly, but I almost got caught for breaking that promise.
I would rather die, and I didn’t want to disappoint Lass.
Wooooow.
Rust hid the body from which the power of lust bloomed in the leather made
along the lath and looked at the squirrel.
“Stop talking nonsense.”
Rust shook his head with calm eyes.
“It’s not yours, it’s mine. “I’ve been chasing it my whole life.”
She shouted, “Where are you looking from?” and then flicked Merlin’s nose.
“forever?”
Merlin snorted as he looked at Rust.
“Your lips are bright red and you’re telling lies! “I’ve been following you day
and night, and I’ve never seen anything like you!”
She shook her head, shouting not to lie.
“I don’t care what you think. I followed him my whole life. “It will come to fruition soon.”
Rust clenched his fists with confidence in his blue eyes that resembled Ra’s.
“Um, me? Me? “Did you just say it was me?”
This time, Merlin got angry at Rust’s word ‘me’. Anger rose in her head because that was the word her wife usually used to refer to her husband.
“This scoundrel… .”
Merlin chewed his lip as he looked into Rust’s calm eyes.
‘I want to say it’s a lie, but it’s true.’
The sense of nature gained from being around countless animals speaks volumes.
That woman was only telling the truth. She really kept following Ra On, and she believed that he would be with her.
‘That can’t be possible.’
Raon is not the type of person to be fooled by a woman’s looks. That idiot Ssukmaek must have a reason, and if you ask him, he will give you an answer, but he couldn’t just ignore it.
“okay?”
Merlin crossed his arms and crossed his legs.
“Is it the same for me?”
“What do you mean?”
Rust, who was touching a flower with a similar color to Raon’s eye color, turned his eyes.
“I decided to join him too.”
Merlin curled the corners of his mouth and pointed at Raon.
“I heard you want to come and live with me.”
In reality, it was not to live together, but to come to Sieghart, but that wasn’t
important right now. I had to win the battle.
“Besides, I once spent a night with ‘Jeoi’.”
He grinned, emphasizing the word “me.” Of course, we had to search the entire Bukmang Mountain in the middle of the night to find snakes to feed the moles in the winter, but we sent them along anyway, so we straightened up proudly.
“Umm… .”
Rust’s fingertips trembled as he looked at Merlin.
‘Is that true…? .’
It was difficult to know the true meaning because it looked like a squirrel, but seeing that the woman’s spirit was unwavering, it seemed like it was the truth.
“dare… .”
Rust stretched out his murderous hand toward Merlin, but stopped when he saw the red flower.
‘Las… .’
The flower was facing itself with a red light, just like Lars’s gaze from a moment ago. She couldn’t do anything shameful in front of her.
“okay. “You are the soul of my heart.”
Rust looked at Merlin and shook his head.
“What nonsense!”
Merlin tilted his head as if asking what he was saying.
“This flower was planted for me. “I won’t fall for your provocations.”
Rust calmed down the irritation rising inside him and carefully touched the red flower.
“Kko, flower?”
Merlin’s lips trembled as he looked at the flowers in front of Rust.
‘I thought it was strange… .’
Although it was very faint, the scent of Raon bloomed from those red flowers. It wasn’t just a scent, it was his energy.
“profit… .”
Merlin clutched his head with trembling hands.
‘Raon has never planted flowers for me… ‘No!’
I have one too!
“flower? At best? “I made a flower bed and welcomed you?”
Merlin snorted and shook his head.
‘Of course it’s not Raon, it’s my mother.’
While staying at the annex, I cleaned up the flower bed and planted flowers
with Sylvia, so it wasn’t a lie at all.
“And he risked his life to fight to save me!”
Merlin did not say that he had done more to save Raon, but raised his hand saying that he had saved Raon’s life.
“Umm… .”
Rust looked at Merlin and lowered his eyebrows deeply.
‘It’s easy to kill, but… .’
Even if that squirrel has a soul mixed in, you can kill it with just one move of
your finger.
But I couldn’t use my strength because I felt like I would lose if I used it.
“Iik!”
Merlin also glared at Rust and shook his shoulders.
‘What did you talk about with Raon?’
I was very curious about what Ra-on and this woman said in front of the flowers, but I couldn’t do it because I felt like I would lose if I asked Ra-on about
it.
“Then let’s do it this way.”
Merlin let out a short breath and lifted his chin.
“You said you followed him around until now, right?”
“okay. “Thousands of years.”
“No more bragging!”
She pointed her finger at her mouth and Rust’s mouth in turn.
“You followed me around too, and I’m confident I can follow you secretly. “Let’s decide who wins or loses by who can follow along more quietly and without being noticed!”
Merlin stamped his feet, saying that the loser would grant the winner’s wish.
“good. “If that’s the case, I won’t lose to anyone.”
Rust knew it was obviously useless, but he accepted the offer simply because
he didn’t want to lose to this squirrel.
“Me too!”
Merlin also confidently turned his head and raised his hand.
Percussion!
As Rust and Merlin’s hands touched, the stalking confrontation between the
demon king of lust and the wizard on the verge of transcendence began.
* * *
“Huh!”
Raon’s whole body trembled as if he was startled.
‘W-what is it… ?’
A moment ago, I felt goosebumps as if someone was caressing my spine. This was my first time doing something like this, so I felt dizzy.
-Yes, did you feel it too?
Lars looked back at the mountain he had just come down from and swallowed his dry saliva.
‘Did you feel it too?’
-That’s right. I didn’t feel any energy, but it was creepy.
The guy also trembled his chin, saying it felt like someone was stroking his soul.
‘What on earth?’
I tried to release my energy just in case, but I couldn’t feel anything.
‘I felt the rust a little while ago, but it hasn’t gone yet?’
-The King is currently in a spiritual state, so if Rust decides to hide, it will be
difficult to find him.
Ras shook his head, saying that he felt it for a moment, but now it is completely gone.
‘Right.’
I nodded briefly. In fact, I thought it would be better to just leave it alone since I couldn’t do anything about it even if I looked for it.
“Um, but… .”
Raon smiled awkwardly at Runan, who was staring at his wrist.
“What are you doing?”
“… … .”
Runaan did not answer, but stared at the bracelet on her wrist with rabbit-like eyes and struck the blade of her hand.
Faaagh!
Her capital struck Rust’s flower bracelet, but as a bracelet filled with the power of the Demon King, it did not break.
“Tsk!”
Runaan clicked her tongue briefly as if she was disappointed and then stepped back.
“uh… .”
“It looks like you had a good trip.”
As Raon looked at his wrist and laughed, Darkan slowly stood up. As expected from a transcendental person, he seemed to have regained some of his stamina.
“You’re not saying you won’t keep your promise now, are you?”
Raon narrowed his eyes at Darkan. She had no intention of receiving the saving grace, but it seemed like she would be very disappointed if she didn’t keep
her promise.
“Of course.”
Darkan nodded calmly.
“Promises made with a sword are usually kept.”
He chuckled and said that it was not unconditional.
“As promised at the beginning, those here will leave without even touching a
single hair.”
Darkhan lowered his hand, saying he would leave as soon as the wound in his soul healed.
“But what I promised was to the people who were here.”
His eyes sank to a cool color.
“Remember, Glenn Sieghardt is not in it.”
“Do whatever you feel like.”
Raon looked at Darkhan and shrugged his shoulders.
“Because you won’t be able to win anyway.”
I trusted Glenn and knew he wouldn’t lose, so it didn’t matter whether Darkhan took up the challenge or not.
“It hurts a little that I can’t refute it.”
Darkan chuckled and stood up.
“But there is something that hasn’t been calculated yet.”
He shook his chin, saying it wasn’t over yet.
“calculate? What calculation are you talking about?”
Raon looked at Darkhan and twisted his mouth.
“Are you sure you want to receive compensation from that female swordsman
for saving us?”
In the current situation, that was the only thing Darkan could calculate. Even
if that guy moved based on instinct, that fact was true to some extent.
‘Even if it’s true, I can’t ignore it.’
If the initiative is handed over to someone like Darkan, it may become tiring. I had to cut it off somehow.
“I know what you’re thinking, but… .”
“Thanks to you, I survived.”
However, Darkan’s calculation was completely opposite to his thoughts.
“what?”
“I survived thanks to you. “Right before I died, I had a strange energy and called that female swordsman.”
Darkan smiled brightly as if he knew the whole situation.
“Then what you said about calculating… .”
“okay. “It’s a bill I have to pay.”
He shook his head lightly.
“I wouldn’t mind dying by that woman’s sword, but I’d rather die by Glenn’s
sword or yours.”
Darkan said thank you again and put his hand in his arms.
“Now that I don’t have any training or money, I’ll give you this.”
He took out an old booklet from his pocket and threw it away.
“Be careful!”
“A knife might come out of the book!”
The magic sword master and the string sword master shook their heads, saying that he was that crazy of a person.
“hmm… .”
Raon opened the booklet while remaining tense. His eyes swayed like a ship
hit by waves.
“No way is this…” .”
