Episode 861
“Then his soul now… .”
Stelin put his hand on his forehead with a stern expression.
“Are you bound by a spell?”
He clenched his molars as if he thought Rimmer’s soul was suffering.
“That’s the most likely.”
Shi Yan nodded his head with difficulty.
“According to what Raon said, I think he will be trapped in the space where the blood spell is engraved.”
She let out a heavy breath, saying this didn’t seem like a good situation.
“Then we have to go find it right now! I can’t watch him suffer even after death.
Erian said he was going and beat his chest.
“You don’t have the ability to see souls, do you? Siyan and I have to go, but neither of us can move right now.”
Stelin narrowed his eyes, asking if he knew better.
“Then it would be better to hire a human shaman… .”
“It is a high-level spell that can rob Aris Sieghart of his power in an instant. “An ordinary shaman won’t be able to solve this problem.”
He shook his head, saying it wasn’t going to be easy by any means.
“… … .”
Raon quenched his appetite while listening to the conversation between Stelin and Erian.
‘It’s not a dungeon…’ .’
I think it’s here… .
Without the help of the Requiem Sword, it would be impossible for Rimmer to appear in one’s mind.
If he, who was thought to have died and left, had not come to the World Tree, there was a high possibility that he would still be inside the Requiem Sword.
“Uh… “I think Master is in here.”
Raon held out his requiem sword forward.
“what? What is that… .”
Stelin lowered his eyebrows as if asking what he was saying.
“Are you saying he’s on that sword?”
Erian also widened his eyes as if he did not understand the meaning of the words.
“There’s something I couldn’t tell you in detail because it might be hard to believe.”
Raon sighed briefly and lowered his hand.
“Actually, when I lost consciousness in the basement of that dungeon… .”
He told me about meeting Rimmer in the world of images after he fell while protecting Gwangpungdae.
“There are many souls who are friendly to me within the Requiem Sword. I think those people helped me meet Master.”
He asked me to check for myself and held out the requiem sword.
“Umm… .”
Sterin looked at the requiem sword and took a step back.
“Unfortunately, I don’t have the ability to see it right now. instead… .”
He pushed Shi Yan, who was blinking blankly, forward.
“This child will be able to confirm.”
“Did you really see your brother there?”
Even though Siyan suddenly came forward, he was not embarrassed and asked about Rimmer.
It seemed like the only thing on her mind right now was about Rimmer.
“yes. Otherwise, Master would not have appeared in my mind.”
Raon nodded and handed the requiem sword to Siyan.
“This is the requiem sword… .”
“yes. you’re right. Although it is a magic sword, to the average person… .”
“It was a sword made by the continental craftsman Kuberud Jayton to comfort those who died at the hands of the White Blood Cult, but it was filled with resentment, so it ended up becoming a magic sword!”
Shi Yan’s eyes suddenly lit up and he began explaining about the Requiem Sword.
“No one could use it, but after it fell into the hands of Raon, it began to shine, and now it has become a sword that is better than anything else!”
She gave rapid-fire explanations as if she knew more about the Requiem Sword than she did.
“uh… .”
Raon swallowed dryly as he looked at Siyan’s sparkling eyes.
‘okay. This is the kind of person he was.’
Since he knows all the information about himself, he could have made a book with Encia.
I laughed because it felt like I was seeing Siyan’s true face after a long time.
“S-sorry.”
It was only after Siyan finished explaining the requiem sword that he blushed as if he realized what he had done.
“it’s okay. But how did you know the detailed information about the Requiem Sword? I probably never told you that far… .”
“Oh, that’s… .”
Her trembling eyes looked behind her.
“Wheeeee… .”
When I turned my head, I saw Dorian making a forced whistle.
– Well, the only thing you had next to you when you got that was your wallet.
Lars chuckled, saying it was natural.
“under… .”
Raon sighed as he looked at Dorian, who was sweating coldly.
“Don’t blame Dorian. “I forced myself to ask.”
Shi Yan shook his head in a hushed voice.

“no. “I was just curious.”
Raon smiled at the slightly brightened mood.
“Then let me take a look.”
Siyan accepted the requiem sword with a red face that did not go away with shame.
Whoa!
A blue-colored spirit energy rose quietly around her and wrapped around the red blade of the requiem sword.
“This sword… .”
Siyan closed his eyes and let out a deep and heavy breath.
“I knew, but I’m really filled with sadness.”
Her red lips trembled as if she was directly feeling the vengeful spirits remaining in the requiem sword.
“None of them died comfortably. “If it weren’t for Raon, I think she would have run away a long time ago.”
Siyan’s complexion turned white as if she was reading the memories of vengeful spirits.
“However, strangely enough, the darkness of the souls is lifting little by little. “It’s probably thanks to Raon.”
She felt Raon’s emotions through the requiem sword and smiled slightly.
“But the negative energy is still much stronger… uh? brother!”
Siyan opened his eyes and looked at the requiem sword.
“Hey, there is! “My brother’s soul is truly inside this sword!”
She let out a scream, saying that Rimmer’s soul resided in the requiem sword.
“Whoa… .”
Raon breathed a sigh of relief. I was worried that it was trapped somewhere else, not the Requiem Sword, but fortunately it seemed to remain inside.
“Ha, that guy!”
Stelin also let out a hollow laugh as if he was now relieved.
“Our unit owner is really amazing. amazing… .”
Buren gave a weak applause towards the requiem sword.
“I think I’m sleeping… .”
Runaan nodded, saying it was like Rimmer.
“I see. “Didn’t you forget it while you were sleeping and couldn’t come out?”
Marta shook her head, saying it was obvious.
“I’m not sleeping.”
Siyan hugged the requiem sword in her arms and bit her lip.
“My brother was comforting the vengeful spirits inside. While enduring resentment in his own soul… .”
She shed the tears she had been holding back, saying that Rimmer was comforting the souls inside the Requiem Sword.
“ah… .”
Raon looked at the requiem sword flashing red light and grabbed Rimmer’s sword.
‘You don’t stay still even there.’
Just as Rimmer had taken care of himself and the Gwangpungdae when he was alive, he now seemed to be comforting the vengeful spirits in the Requiem Sword.
“Sir… .”
The toddler sat down on the floor and cried.
“Why does it keep ringing?” .”
“That’s right. “When I’m there, I just make jokes that aren’t even funny.”
Dorian and Crane burst into tears as if they had been punched in their mouths.
An untimely rain shower fell in a corner of Seifia.
* * *
Jerk.
The sound of wet footsteps could be heard in a dark cave where not even the slightest light could enter.
“Are you going to sleep right away?”
A man wearing a strange snake helmet looked into the vast darkness and lifted his chin.
Couuuuuuuuck!
The deep darkness on the other side of the man stirred, and the diamond-shaped golden pupil opened. It was the eye of the dragon, the owner of this dungeon.
[What’s going on?]
The dragon glared at the man wearing the snake helmet with fierce eyes, as if he was angry at having his rest interrupted.
“I’m talking about Seifia, which you warned me about a little while ago… .”
The man wearing the snake helmet twitched his fingers in a tampering manner.
“Raon Sieghardt is here. The elves welcomed him. “Is it okay to do that?”
He drew a faint smile inside his helmet, asking if he knew who Raon was.
Cheeeeee!
The dragon’s pupils narrowed as thin as a blade.
[In the end, you are ignoring my warning.]
A scream like a human scream began to sound in the darkness of the endless cave due to the anger of the transcendent being.
“yes. “You can’t just leave it alone.”
The man wearing the snake helmet curled the corners of his mouth as if he was going to have fun in the future.
“It’s been a while since I went to Seifia.”
* * *
After ordering Gwangpungdae, who had exhausted his emotions, to rest, Raon went to Sterin’s house again.
Stelin and Siyan were waiting in the small house, which was said to be the guardian’s residence.
“Thank you. “For taking care of him and not forgetting him.”
Stelin let out a long sigh, saying that his grandson was always rude.
“no. Rather, I am receiving help.”
Raon lowered his head, saying that he survived thanks to Rimmer.
“Thank you for the kind words.”
Stelin smiled slightly as if it wasn’t bad to hear his grandson’s praise.
“But what happens to Master’s soul now?”
Raon asked, touching the requiem sword he had received again.
“I will send your soul back to the World Tree as soon as the sun rises tomorrow.”
Shiyan said that if things continue like this, Limer’s soul could become a vengeful spirit and that they should be taken out.
“I guess so.”
Raon took a quick bite. Although she couldn’t talk or feel, it was a little disappointing that Rimer had completely disappeared from her side.
-Still, sending it is the right thing to do.
Lars looked at himself with sunken eyes.
-Even though you could have saved the ear piece, you decided to let it go.
‘yes.’
If he had asked Merlin, he could have saved Rimmer even if it took a long time.
However, I gave up because no one would want to be revived by wearing a helmet and borrowing someone else’s body.
“Whether you are a human or an elf, it is best to follow the flow of nature.”
Siyan also seemed to understand his thoughts and explained. She seemed to be nervous again, as her voice began to tremble.
“All right.”
Raon nodded, saying he understood.
“Oh, now that I think about it, I wasn’t in a good mood so I couldn’t celebrate properly.”
Stelin smiled and clapped his hands.
“Congratulations on reaching the top. “I don’t think I can deal with him anymore.”
He nodded profusely, saying that it was an achievement that would remain in the history of the continent.
“transcendence? Well, then you have awakened… .”
Siyan widened his eyes as if he had now realized.
“yes. “Luckily, I was able to ascend to transcendence.”
“iced coffee! “I was so depressed that I didn’t realize it!”
She opened her mouth wide enough to put her fist in, as if she was genuinely shocked.
“We have already adapted to the realm of transcendence. They can now manipulate the energy of nature more freely than us elves. That may be why the great forest opened the way.”
Stelin smiled slightly, saying that cases like this are not common.
“transcendence! Transcendence! “I have to use this!”
Siyan let out a gasping sound, took out a book and writing utensil from somewhere, and started writing something random.
“Is it finally starting now?”
Stelin sighed briefly, as if he was used to it.
“Starting?”
“I was taking notes about you like that until I heard that Rimmer had died. “They said they were going to turn everything into a book, but nothing was empty.”
He frowned and said that it was literally a novel.
“Ahaha… .”
Raon burst into laughter as he looked at Siyan, who had started writing with madness in her eyes.
“If that happens, there is no answer.”
Stelin snapped his fingers, saying let’s leave him alone.
“Ah yes… .”
Raon scratched the back of his head and left Stelin’s residence. I was already worried about how severe the exaggerations would be in that book.
“Still, I’m glad Siyan is getting brighter. “I was worried for a while because you were too serious.”
Stelin bowed his head and said thank you for allowing Siyan to return to his usual shy self.
“thanks.”
“no. “I didn’t do anything.”
Raon said absolutely no and waved his hand.
“You’re still the same.”
Stelin laughed, saying nothing had changed.
“Hey Guardian… .”
Raon’s expression hardened after hearing Sterin’s words.
“Are you in any pain?”
The Stelin I saw today had wrinkles like tree bark carved all over his body, and he looked weak.
I was worried because I wasn’t this tired even when I looked exhausted after the purification ritual.
“Transcendence is amazing. I feel that too. No, can you see everything?”
Stelin smiled slightly as he looked at his own face reflected in the lake.
“Guardian… .”
“There is no pain anywhere. “It’s just that the end has come.”
He turned around and calmly rested his chin.
“Unlike the world tree, which grows endlessly, the time has come to return to the soil.”
“ah… .”
Raon bit his lip as he looked at Stelin’s calm eyes.
If it was an illness, it could be cured, but if the lifespan had reached its limit, there was no way.
“Don’t make that face. “I lived long enough.”
Sterin chuckled, saying that there are not many races that live as long as the high elves.
“Guardian… .”
“Still, it’s a pity that I have to leave Siyan alone. “You know, he can’t even call his best friend right now.”
“Yes.”
Raon nodded heavily. Since the last war, the connection with Elaim and Ifrit has been completely lost.
It seemed like they were concentrating on the restoration work of the spirit world.
“So, please come and talk to me at least occasionally. “That guy will love it.”
Stelin bowed his head and asked her to take good care of Siyan.
“Don’t do this!”
Raon waved his hand and shook his head.
“Of course it has to be done!”
Because of the things I received from Stelin, Siyan, and Rimmer, it wasn’t strange that I always stood behind them instead of talking to them.
“Thank you for saying that.”
Stelin held her hand tightly as if she was sincere. She felt the wrinkles on the back of his hand and it made his heart ache.
“You really don’t have to worry. “Because Sieghart and I don’t think of Seifia as a stranger.”
Raon expressed his thoughts with sincerity.
Although the temporary alliance with Seifia was postponed due to various reasons, he considered the elves here as his friends.
“Raon… .”
Stelin seemed a little surprised, unable to speak, his old eyes trembling.
“You must be tired, so I’ll come back tomorrow.”
Raon left for his lodgings, saying that he would come back tomorrow morning when he sent Rimmer’s soul away.
“… … .”
Sterin looked at Raon’s back for a while, then took a short breath and went back home.
“Here, Raon broke the wings of the angel knights… .”
Siyan was still busy writing records about Raon.
“Heh.”
Stelin walked up to Siyan, who was lost in her imagination, and smiled slightly.
“Maybe you’re right.”
He stroked the head of his engrossed granddaughter and smiled without wrinkles for the first time in a long time.
* * *
The next morning, the moment when the world is most filled with mana.
Raon and Gwangpungdae followed Sterin and entered the sacred place where the roots of the World Tree were planted.
Phew.
Raon took a breath and raised his gaze.
The World Tree, which seemed to cover the entire sky, was sparkling with a brilliant and elegant light, engulfed in natural mana.
“Well, it seems bigger than before?”
Dorian sighed, rubbing his eyes.
“You have a good eye for attention.”
Stelin chuckled and nodded.
“The world tree continues to grow even now. “When it grows up, it might really reach the sky.”
As he said, the World Tree was bigger than before. If you didn’t focus your eyesight, you couldn’t see the end.
“But it seems like growth has slowed down a bit these days. “It’s as if something is blocked.”
“Is there a reason?”
“I don’t know exactly. “Now I have to leave it to Siyan.”
Stelin shook his head, saying that now the world tree purification ceremony should be left to Siyan.
“I plan to check it slowly after you guys return.”
He shook his head and told me not to worry too much.
“Let me begin now. But before that.”
Siyan approached Raon and the Gwangpungdae holding a requiem sword.
“Please say your last goodbye to my brother.”
She bowed her head, asking Rimmer to say hello so he could leave safely.
“… … .”
Raon looked at the requiem sword and comforted his trembling lips.
“Thank you so much for everything. “You were the most comfortable and greatest teacher I ever had.”
I said my sincere thanks and bowed my head.
“Because we will live a long and prosperous life. “Don’t worry and leave.”
Martha bent down, holding her trembling hands tightly.
“I really hated you at first. But now I have no choice but to admit that he is the best teacher. thank you “Master.”
Burren bowed in a polite manner as if he were dealing with Glenn.
“We will protect Sieghart, so I hope you can sleep comfortably there.”
Runaan shed tears and blessed Rimmer with a long sleep.
“Keuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu… .”
“Aaaah!”
“I will miss you! Damn it!”
Dorian and Yua sobbed, while Crane and Julius furrowed their brows and lowered their heads.
After exchanging greetings with the Gwangpungdae swordsmen, the requiem sword returned to Siyan’s hand.
“brother. thank you. And I love you.”
With tears in his eyes, Siyan put down the requiem sword at the root of the World Tree and stood up.
Wooooow!
A sea-like blue light rose around her and wrapped around the requiem sword, throbbing with resentment.
It seemed like they were trying to use the power of the World Tree and spirit power to draw out Limer’s soul remaining in the Requiem Sword.
“hmm?”
But Shi Yan suddenly furrowed her brows and trembled her lips.
“W-what are you doing… .”
Siyan looked at the requiem sword and widened his eyes as if he did not understand.
“Come out quickly… .”
“What’s going on?”
“This damn bastard won’t come out!”
She gritted her teeth with an absurd expression filled with tears.
“You burnt-out! Come out! “You’re a nuisance!”
-That’s the way it is!
Lars chuckled as if he was happy to see it.
“… … .”
Raon blinked as he watched Siyan wrestling with Rimmer in the requiem sword.
‘Is that elf going to start leeching again?’
