Episode 847
After shedding tears, Raon followed Glenn to the throne room.
Sylvia and Edgar, as well as other executives, followed him with embarrassed looks, as if they had not expected him to shed tears.
“Whoa… .”
Glenn stood on the throne room platform and let out a heavy sigh. He stood in front of the throne and lowered his hand towards Raon.
“Rimerga… .”
Glenn paused for a moment and bit his lip slightly as he looked at Rimmer’s coffin next to Raon.
“I heard that Rimer died and Aris was seriously injured, but the exact circumstances were not communicated.”
He looked at Lavawin as if he thought that Raon and Gwangpungdae were in a mentally difficult situation.
“Labawin. you… .”
“Matriarch. “I will tell you.”
Raon wiped the remaining tears from his eyes with the back of his hand and stepped forward.
“Are you going to be okay?”
“yes. I want to do it. No, I have to do it.”
I nodded as I looked at Rimmer’s coffin next to me.
“… “Then please do me a favor.”
Glenn took a step back with his eyebrows narrowed.
“Let me tell you from the beginning. “After obtaining the soul stone, when we were about to return to Sieghart, Aris’ subordinate came to visit us.”
Raon did not mention Paras’ name so as not to put pressure on him, but only told him that he was Aris’ subordinate.
“It was news that traces of Sif, the son of Aris, had been found, and after much deliberation, we decided to send the soul stone to Sieghart first and then go find Sif. When you first enter the dungeon… .”
Raon told me in detail everything that happened in the dungeon, leaving out nothing.
“… “Thanks to the teacher I met in the world of images, I was able to ascend to transcendence and control the dungeon to pursue Sif and Bardiel and take revenge.”
As I recalled the memories of the dungeon, Rimmer’s face came to mind and I felt like crying again, but I didn’t want to cry any more, so I suppressed the overflowing emotions.
“Derus Robert. This dog is really! ”
Balder stamped his foot violently as if he was going to destroy the throne room.
“Where is this bastard hiding and doing this shit!”
He gritted his teeth, saying he wanted to grab Derus by his hair and pull him out.
“It’s in front of the head of the family. Be quite.”
Karun shook his head while looking at the podium.
“Hyung, aren’t you angry? To play with this bastard Sieghard… hmm!”
Balder shouted, but then looked at Karun’s eyes and kept his mouth shut.
“I told you to keep your mouth shut.”
Karun had bright red thunderbolts over his eyes.
As he was a man with deep pride in Sieghart, he seemed to be angrier than anyone else here.
“Uhm… .”
Balder pouted and then turned back again.
“… … .”
Denier, who always showed a calm demeanor, seemed to be angry and his hands clenched into fists were shaking.
“okay. That’s what happened… .”
Glenn looked at Rimmer’s coffin and slowly closed his eyes and opened them.
“So you were blaming yourself.”
He nodded heavily, saying he understood the looks in the eyes of the Gwangpungdae prosecutors.
“It’s all my fault!”
Dorian stepped forward, crying.
“Because I couldn’t do anything, the commander… .”
He grabbed his messy hair, saying it was more of a hindrance than a help.
“no. “It’s my fault.”
Raon stopped Dorian and shook his head.
“There were many ways to stop Sif’s plan. Because I was careless, Aris was stabbed, and even the unit commander was injured.”
He lowered his head, blaming himself for everything so that Dorian and the other Gwangpungdae children would not criticize him.
However, this is not just about emotions, it is also the part where he actually brings up his own problems.
‘If I had just been a little calmer, I could have saved the two people.’
If Raon’s cool-headedness from his past life had remained, he wouldn’t have trusted Sif to the end.
As I became Raon Sieghardt and believed in people and relationships, I felt like I had developed a weakness.
“The prosecutor I know named Rimer doesn’t say nonsense, even if it’s light.”
Glenn looked at the coffin and pressed his lips together.
“He left a message for you to be happy, and the fact that he left smiling in Raon’s image means he has no regrets. There is no need for Gwangpungdaeju or Gwangpungdae to blame themselves.”
He lowered his chin with cool eyes.
“There is someone else who did a dirty trick, so why are you so anxious that you can’t criticize yourself? If he beat himself up any further than that, he would be insulting Rimmer, so forget about it the moment you leave this room.”
Glenn chewed his molars, blaming Deruth, not himself, and thinking of revenge.
“Do you understand?”
“… Ah, I understand.”
Dorian fell to his knees and sobbed and nodded.
“All right.”
Raon also bowed his head. As Glenn said and as she saw, Rimmer disappeared smiling as if she had no regrets.
As he said, I felt like I shouldn’t insult my teacher’s last days.
“And there’s one more thing I need to tell you.”
Raon stepped forward again and looked up at Glenn.

“It’s about how Sif stole Aris’s powers.”
Before speaking, I looked around the entire throne room. Since there were only the former owners, their direct lineages, and high-ranking executives at the major and minor levels, it seemed like it would be okay to bring up the story.
“okay. “I was curious about that!”
Balder nodded loudly.
“Because even I, an ignorant person, know that it is impossible to reach transcendence by robbing others of their power!”
He pointed his finger at me, telling me to hurry up and say something.
“In our Sieghart… .”
Raon continued speaking with his hand on his chest.
“It is said that the blood of the Elyos is flowing.”
“… Elyos? “Are you talking about the Elyos that Derus Robert called?”
Karun’s lips trembled as if he was surprised.
“you’re right.”
Raon looked at Karun and nodded.
“It is said that Sif ascended to transcendence by absorbing the power of the Elyos contained in Aris’ blood. “Martha.”
“huh.”
Marta came forward and handed Raon the Black Sword of Sif.
“Sif robbed Aris of her power through the curse remaining in the cavity and this black sword. “There must be a secret inside this sword.”
Raon handed the black sword, which still had the smell of blood, to Glenn.
“… “There is definitely a feeling of suffocation left behind.”
Glenn narrowed his eyes, saying he had no idea such a sword existed.
“I need to contact Balkan and Ogram as well.”
He nodded, saying that he should bring in shamans from Vulcan and the Beast League who were famous blacksmiths.
“Matriarch. “Did you know?”
Raon lowered his eyebrows as he looked at Glenn examining the black sword. Judging from his calm reaction, it seemed like he already knew about the Elyos.
“I didn’t know that the blood of the Elyos was mixed. but… .”
Glenn lowered his black sword and shook his head.
“Considering the sword world that only we can use and Sieghart’s characteristics of not slowing down his growth even after reaching transcendence, I thought that the species itself was special. “I need to look into this part properly as well.”
He lowered his eyebrows, saying it was a surprise even to him.
“You’re an Elyos, you should like this or not… .”
Balder laughed as if he still couldn’t believe it.
“… … .”
Karun looked at Rimmer’s coffin with sunken eyes, probably filled with many thoughts.
“I guess… .”
Denier looked at the black sword and took a step forward.
“It seems that Derus Robert is also using the power of the White Blood Cult.”
“White blood religion?”
Balder turned his chin as if asking what he was saying.
“On the entire continent, the people who have the best understanding of human blood are the White Blood Church. “The two forces are clearly deeply connected.”
Denier clutched his temple, saying that it seemed like Derus and the White Blood Cult had worked together to study a method to rob Sieghart of his power.
“It’s definitely a possibility.”
Glenn nodded, saying that since he had ascended to transcendence using Aris’ blood, it was highly likely that the white blood cult leader was also connected.
“Based on the situation, it seems that Sieghardt’s blood must be passed down to Sieghardt in order to usurp his power, but just in case, Jeonju and Daeju should investigate from all angles.”
He gave instructions to all executives in the throne room to gather information about this incident.
“From now on, I declare Derus Robert and his forces to be Sieghardt’s main enemies. Give them priority over any other force, and be sure to kill them if you encounter them. “I will allow it.”
Glenn gritted his teeth sharply, telling me not to let him live.
“yes!”
Sieghardt’s executives bowed their heads resolutely, as if they would carry out the order even if it meant death.
“Merlin.”
Glenn gestured to Merlin, who was at the very back of the storm band.
“yes! “Grandpa!”
Merlin responded in a more cheerful voice than usual, as if trying to relieve the heavy atmosphere.
“Well, how long will it take to get ready to wake Sia?”
Glenn looked embarrassed for a moment and then asked about Sia.
“I think it will take about two weeks.”
Merlin held up two fingers, saying that since this was his first time doing something like this, he should prepare thoroughly.
“It doesn’t matter if it takes more time than that. “There should be no failure, so please be as safe as possible.”
“Please leave it to me!”
She patted her arm and laughed.
“Rimer’s funeral will be held in three days. Since he is from Sepia, it would be right to send him there, but I would like to ask Sieghardt.”
Glenn said that and turned around.
“You’re probably tired, so everyone go back. “I will take care of cleaning up after myself.”
He made a weak gesture with his hand as if to leave.
“… All right.”
Raon bowed his head deeply and left the throne room with Gwangpungdae.
“We’ll go back too.”
“Don’t overdo it… .”
“Wow, it’s frustrating!”
Karun, Denier, Balder, and the other officers also bowed towards Glenn’s back and left the throne room.
“… … .”
Glenn stood alone in the throne room and looked at Rimmer’s coffin.
As if he had turned into a stone statue, he did not move even as the sun set and dawn came, his eyes only focused on Rimmer.
Coo!
When Glenn bent down and held his head as if he felt dizzy, the door to the throne room opened roughly as if it would break, and Cheryl came flying in as if throwing herself.
“Huh… .”
Cheryl had fresh blood on her cheeks and clothes, and it looked like she had run away without looking back as soon as she finished her mission.
“Matriarch! Where is that kid… ah!”
While looking for Rimmer, she saw the coffin under the platform and her lips quivered.
Jerk.
Glenn walked down the stage with heavy steps and stood in front of Rimmer’s coffin.
He raised and lowered his convulsing hand several times and then opened the coffin as if he had made up his mind.
Rimmer can be seen between the beautiful white frost flowers. He was smiling.
Stand up now and say, ‘Now you’ve finally hugged Raon! It seemed like he was going to draw a sly smile while shouting, ‘Please hurry up!’
“… … .”
Glenn could not continue to look at Rimmer’s face, and lifted his gaze toward the ceiling. His vision became hazy, as if fog had filled it.
“I hope you go in peace… .”
Roen lowered his head with his hand on his chest. There were transparent tears in his old eyes.
“You stupid bastard. You idiot… .”
Cheryl fell to her knees and hit the ground. Drops of water flowed from her eyes and streaked her hair.
“Wait! “You lazy gambler!”
She screamed in resentment at Rimmer, asking why he didn’t keep his promise.
“You really went like you did.”
Glenn held Rimmer’s hand, which was full of scars, and chewed his lip.
“I’m glad I don’t have any regrets, but I wanted to be with you a little longer. Comrades. “No, my friend.”
* * *
“Haaa… .”
Raon looked up at the ceiling of his room and sighed.
‘I can’t sleep.’
A long time passed after I returned to the annex, washed up, and laid down, but I couldn’t sleep.
Even though I had never been this mentally and physically tired, my head felt clear.
‘No, it’s not neat.’
I felt like I couldn’t sleep because my emotions and mind were so heightened.
-Then at least move your body.
Lars yawned briefly and shook his head.
-If you relax a little, you’ll be fine.
Unlike usual, the guy nodded, telling me to relax and come back.
‘… thanks.’
As soon as he returned to the family, he couldn’t keep his promise to throw a party, and even though he couldn’t eat delicious food for a while, Lars tolerated it silently without complaining.
I was just thankful because I knew what kind of personality he usually had.
-Stop talking nonsense. It’s because the king is bored.
Lars snorted, wondering if he should leave quickly.
‘okay.’
Raon smiled slightly and stopped as he was about to go out the door. My naturally blooming senses alerted me to the presence of Sylvia, Edgar, and Helen in the restaurant.
Sylvia and Helen were crying over Rimmer, and Edgar was comforting them.
‘… … .’
Raon turned and went out through the window of the room.
To prevent others from waking up, I went to the back of the lake and pulled out my sword.
Wooooow!
Just by holding the sword, the mana inside the body and the mana of Mother Nature resonate.
Thousand pains. The energy waves of the transcendent human being who reached the sky were blooming over his shoulders.
Ssssssssssssssssss!
As I slowly lower my sword, the lake splits without a sound. Mother Nature’s mana followed the path left by the cartoonist’s auror, drawing a wall dividing the lake.
‘… ‘You’ve become stronger.’
I feel like I have become stronger than ever.
Even though it was the state of transcendence that I had waited so long for, I was not happy. It seemed like it was because there was no one who could congratulate and make them happy.
‘Still, I have no choice but to move on.’
None of his goals have been achieved yet. Even if I died, no matter what the consequences were, I had to kill Derus.
As I put my heavy heart into the sword, the blade imbued with a light aura twisted and split the air.
The state of transcendence was able to transform ideals into reality even with a weak aura.
Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeess
After Raon finished basic swordsmanship and was about to open his sword, he felt someone’s presence on the right.
Mana speaks of its existence without even needing to display energy. It seemed like I knew why Lars always figured out people’s presence in advance.
Wow.
The person who came down onto the lake with rough steps was Cheryl. She came so quickly that her hair was stuck to her wet face.
“Lord Heavenly Sword… .”
Raon lowered his head without looking at Sheryl properly.
“sorry.”
She and Rimmer are friends. No, she had nothing more to say because it seemed like the relationship went beyond that.
“That’s okay. “Just take it.”
Cheryl took out a crumpled piece of paper from her arms.
“This… .”
“That damn thing left you… .”
She paused for a moment and bit her lip.
“It’s a will.”
