# The main characters only I know episode 317
Yuhyeon couldn’t move.
The tension reached its peak when I realized that the person I thought I could trust and have my back on was actually a more suspicious suspect than anyone else.
‘You must remain calm.’
Yuhyeon calmly moved the hand that unfolded the parchment. Just like before, still trying to find something.
“… … “I’m busy right now, so don’t tell me.”
“I didn’t find it when I looked for it?”
“yes. “I can’t see it yet.”
Yuhyeon spoke naturally and folded the parchment again and unfolded another one. But that alone is still not enough.
Yuhyeon was still in the gap between Rahiyan. And this one couldn’t draw its weapon yet.
‘far.’
It’s obviously wrapped around a black waistband, but if you move it just a little, you can pull it out right away.
The distance felt so far away.
Even if you try to stretch out your hand, you can’t reach it, and no matter how fast you hold the sword, Rahiyan’s sword will move faster than that instinct.
Instinctive vigilance.
Because of that, Yuhyeon’s movements were slightly hindered.
“My hand stopped working.”
“… … .”
“… … is it.”
Rahiyan muttered in a low voice, expressing some regret.
Rahiyan also noticed something.
The moment Yuhyeon heard those words, she closed her eyes tightly. And he holds his sword with lightning speed… … .
“late.”
Kaang!
Even more than that, the first thing Rahiyan had to do was cut off the sword sheath hanging on Yuhyeon’s waist with his sword.
Before I could grasp it with my hand, the sword on my belt flew out and rolled around on the floor.
Yuhyeon immediately grabbed the parchment lying on the ground with both hands and threw it behind her. Sigh! The rolled up parchment unraveled by itself, making Rahiyan’s eyes dizzy.
Rahiyan did not panic even in such a situation.
His hand holding the sword seemed to move a little faster, and soon the parchment that was fluttering in the air and blocking his vision was broken into pieces and scattered.
“There is no use in resisting.”
Leihya immediately kicked Yuhyeon’s side as she tried to catch the sword rolling on the floor.
Even at that moment, Yuhyeon reflexively crossed her arms to defend herself, but was unable to prevent her body from being thrown away.
Cooung.
Yuhyeon’s body hit the tightly closed door and rolled on the floor.
Yuhyeon frowned at the pain rising from her forearm and looked up at Rahiyan coming towards her.
“Why on earth?”
Why on earth did you betray him? Weren’t you Lean’s right-hand man?
“You were a veteran explorer who had guarded this place for 32 years… … .”
“okay. He’s an explorer. And he was one of the great warriors before that. Afterwards, I became an explorer. And after that, I will continue to be an explorer. A seeker who fights frost giants and fights endlessly.”
“What are you saying… … .”
“I don’t think you understand what I’m saying.”
Rahiyan still had an expressionless face.
Still, I thought we had become close friends after chatting a few times before.
Rahiyan looked down at the fallen Yoohyeon with a cold gaze, as if those memories were lies.
“It would be better if everyone called me a witch and disappeared like before, so I wouldn’t have to do such a troublesome thing.”
“You… … .”
“Well, I guess it doesn’t matter. Even if you die, it will still be the work of Fritzen and his gang. thank god. “I was able to move so easily thanks to the attention the unruly emperor gave me.”
I never would have thought that Lean’s right-hand man was a traitor.
No, the possibility was left open to some extent. Yoohyeon did not think that Fritchen was 100% a traitor. He came here to fill that lack of potential, and that’s why he endured this far without falling to Lahiyan’s blow.
But, that too is over now.
He raised his sword at Rahiyan.
“die.”
And, the moment you try to hit it.
Kwazijic!
Above Yuhyeon’s head, the wooden door broke and a vicious hand came out.
“what… … !”
Rahiyan also did not expect the surprise attack, so he was slow to react by swinging his sword.
The hand that broke the door grabbed Rahiyan’s collar and pulled him with strong force.
Kwazijic!
The wooden door shattered and Rahiyan was thrown outside.
“Hey. This is true. “If we were just a little bit late, we would have been in big trouble.”
“you are… … .”
Yoohyeon’s eyes widened when she recognized the person who saved her.
The first thing I saw was hair that was almost gray.
“Frichen?”
The last bloodline of the fallen empire, who is hostile to Lean and always behaves as he pleases.
Above all else, the man whom she suspected of being a traitor was the one who saved Yuhyeon at this moment.
Fritzen just turned his head slightly and smiled.

“why? “Are you too surprised that I suddenly appeared?”
“No, how on earth…” … ?”
“How did you know? Well, I’d like to answer that.”
Fritchen twisted his lips as he looked at Rahiyan, who was getting up from his seat after picking up his fallen body.
“I can’t afford that now.”
Saying that, Fritzen grabbed a large hatchet.
The blade of the hatchet was cut at an angle at the end.
“… … Was it you? “That tail?”
“hey. Tails is too harsh a word. I have never been a tail. A head is a head. “I guess the person who said that also somehow realized the existence of the traitor?”
“that… … .”
“Freeceeeeenn!”
Rahiyan, who must have been interrupted at a critical moment, burst into anger and shouted Fritzen’s name.
Rahiyan’s face, which was always expressionless, was distorted like a demon.
From Lahiyan, speculation and fearful killing skills were overflowing. The fighting spirit that made my skin tingle was like a well-forged sword in itself.
Pressure equivalent to that of a high-level collector.
“OK. “Let’s come Fritzen.”
Facing it, Fritzen was not scared or nervous. She had a smile on her face, as if she had been waiting for this situation.
“How dare you be the crown prince who cannot take back the ruined empire!”
Rahiyan rushed at me like an animal. At the same time, the sword he threw out was very calm and sharp, and was aimed precisely at Fritzen’s vital spot.
Kaang!
Fritchen lightly deflected Rahiyan’s sword with his hatchet.
“that’s right. It was definitely like that in the old days. But now? “I say this because it is a unique bloodline.”
Fritchen spoke in a voice full of arrogance.
“So it’s right that I’m called the emperor. “What does it matter?”
“The empire has already fallen! “The title of emperor is nothing more than a facade!”
“that’s right. It’s nothing. “It’s meaningless.”
The two people’s weapons become entangled in the air.
Let’s go! Fritzen concentrated on blocking Rahiyan’s attacks, and on the contrary, Rahiyan threw down his sword with all his might.
The bluish energy on the tip of his sword stretched out and swept the surrounding space.
The wide hallway was torn apart and the ceiling collapsed.
Through the rubble, the two men exchanged attacks.
“But, I at least have the title of emperor. Rahiyan, what on earth are you? The leader’s faithful dog? The third person below me? ah. What did you hate the most? “Even if he pretended not to be like that, he had an amazing winning mentality.”
“Shut up!”
Perhaps influenced by Rahiyan’s emotions, his sword energy soared even more like a flame.
“I haven’t liked you since long ago! Although he has power, he acts shallow and behaves as if he were a child! “I went against Lord Lean’s will!”
“Isn’t disobeying his will the same for you now?”
“You have no honor!”
“But I have power.”
Fritzen chuckled. Yoohyeon watched the two of them fighting as if possessed.
Fritzen was not called second-in-command for nothing.
“sister!”
Ringuug came running from afar. Behind Ringug, there were knights who could be said to be Fritchen’s subordinates and explorers who came running after hearing the news.
“sister! Are you feeling okay?!”
“Uh, uh. are you okay. Fortunately. Rather, how did this happen?”
“I told Emperor Fritzen. “My sister headed here.”
Quang!
A loud noise erupted from afar.
Fritchen began swinging the ax in earnest, as if to show off that he had not intentionally attacked until now.
He, who had been playing defense until now, switched to attack.
The gray aura flowing from the ax spilled over and collided with Rahiyan’s aura.
Fritchen’s aurors were overwhelming Rahiyan’s.
“How, how can this level of power!”
“Haha. Did you think I was called second in command for no reason? Or did you think he was just a superficial leader who only relied on the strength of his subordinates?”
Fritchen swung the ax sideways. Can’t stop it. Lahiyan hurriedly leaned back to avoid the attack. His hair was cut into clumps and scattered in the air.
“I guess it’s because I don’t know, but I am a man who got to this position on my own. Or maybe you were looking down on me all this time because you thought I was weak? “That’s a bit shocking.”
“profit! why!”
“Why are you sleeping?”
Fritzen rushed towards Rahiyan.
“Why are you talking so long on the topic of traitors? “We, the great warrior, were taught to fight with our mouths?”
“You bastard!”
Rahitja’s sword energy exploded and flew towards Fritzen’s chest. Fritzen flicked it away, lifted his right foot, and stomped his foot.
Cooung. The remains of the collapsed ceiling floated in the air. At the same time, dust spread out.
The wind blew and passed by Rahiyan. Rahiyan raised an aura and blocked her dust cloud.
At the same time, Fritchen advanced, splitting the dust cloud in half like a giant cannonball.
Rahiyan, who was caught off guard for a moment because his vision was blocked, was struck in the chest by Fritzen’s shoulder.
Quad Deuk!
“Wow!”
Rahiyan, vomiting blood from his mouth, was thrown a long way and rolled around on the floor. Due to the attack a while ago, my ribs were broken and my chest sank.
Rahiyan stood up using his sword as a staff, but was no longer in a state to continue the fight.
Perhaps thinking that this was enough, Fritzen withdrew his axe.
Rahiyan shouted with trembling lips.
“Not yet, not over yet!”
“no. finished.”
It wasn’t Fritzen who answered that way.
Lean appeared, dividing the crowd.
His eyes towards Rahian were more complicated and sad than anything else.
Rahian also froze in place when he spotted Lean.
“Rahian… … .”
“Captain Lean.”
“Why on earth is that like that? “What on earth made you abandon the comrades who were with you until now and continue this terrible hell?”
“Why?”
Was that question that funny? Ryan laughed lowly, not even thinking about wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.
When his laughter finally stopped, Rahiyan screamed in anger.
“Why are you asking me that? Lean! “This is what we had to do!”
Even though Rahiyan was bleeding from the corner of his mouth, he glared at Yuhyeon beyond Lean with eyes shining with madness.
It’s because of that witch. If only she hadn’t been there, she wouldn’t have hindered his struggle.
“Did you forget?! We Gardians must keep fighting! Struggle is our only goal! I just wanted to keep fighting!”
“Just because of that?”
“At best? At best? Lean! If so, please answer. “What is the meaning of our lives without fighting?”
“what… … Called?”
“I was born to hold a sword, and I became a warrior to fight. When a peaceful era comes, what are we going to do then?! What values are left for us in times of peace?! yes? “Please answer!”
Rahiyan was a great warrior of the northern ethnic groups.
And when he was born, it was a turbulent time in the North. Conflicts continued everywhere and many people died.
In a barren environment, Rahiyan’s clan had no choice but to fight and loot someone else’s belongings. Even if you didn’t want to die, you had to fight.
Rahiyan has been holding a sword since he was a child, not even remembering how old he was.
And, even as a young man, he swung his sword hard without losing sight of it.
You will become a great warrior. As much as the blood on your sword, our tribe will prosper.
Rahiyan completely believed those words, and continued to fight and kill while traversing the barren land.
His father and mother passed away, and even his precious younger sister died, but he did not stop.
Kill, kill, kill again.
Fight, fight, fight again.
When he conquered the surrounding area and led a larger tribe.
The war ended and peace came to the world.
The empire ended its war of conquest, and the various kingdoms joined hands. Minorities in the north stopped fighting among themselves and formed alliances based on blood ties.
Surely, this may have been the peace everyone was waiting for.
But, at least it didn’t happen to Rahiyan.
‘What should I do now?’
Rahiyan lost the purpose of swinging the sword. The sword was wielded to kill someone. But if there is no enemy, what is the sword for?
His life, which he lived only to fight and kill, could not accept peace.
A great warrior must fight. Only struggle proved his life.
But what on earth does this peace mean? What is this terrible boredom?
So, when the curse of frozen ground occurred, Rahiyan was secretly happier than anyone else.
Frost giants that threaten humanity.
It’s the enemy.
The enemy he had longed for, the enemy he could fight, had appeared.
“Curse of the frozen ground? Everyone freezes to death? “What does that mean!”
Rahiyan cried out, coughing up blood.
“There is an enemy! We can finally fight! Keep going, keep going, keep going! “I finally found my purpose!”
Rahiyan did not want this hell to end.
When winter ends and spring returns, along with peace, weapons are bound to rust.
What he wanted was eternal struggle.
A bitterly cold eternal winter where weapons never rust.
“We have not lost our values! You can keep fighting! If this curse continues, we will fight and fight and fight forever! Prove your worth! We go to the land of salvation… … !”
“no. Lahiyan.”
Leanne shook her head with a look filled with sadness.
“Where there is only fighting, there is no salvation.”
“… … What does that mean? Fighting is salvation! “Why don’t you know that!”
“Rahiyan. “Do you still not know why we fight?”
The reason our ancestors fought until now. It wasn’t simply because he enjoyed the struggle.
“The reason they fought until now, and the reason we still fight. Because everyone wanted peace. “To create our own fence where future generations can live safely.”
“Do not be ridiculous!”
Rahiyan shouted in a fit of rage.
“You fought for peace? So what if peace comes? What should we do when all we can do is fight? Our comrades who have been with us until now! My ancestors! “What on earth did you die for?”
Rahiyan didn’t want to hear that. One time was enough for his life to be completely uprooted.
Grab the knife.
Shed blood.
Achieve honor and glory.
A black shadow drifted around Rahiyan.
No, it wasn’t a shadow. What had been around Rahiyan until now were the evil spirits of the past.
Rahiyan himself didn’t know, but Lean knew.
“Rahiyan. “In the end, you were eaten by the devil called fighting.”
“I will forever… … !”
“Just get some rest.”
Faster than Rahiyan could shout, Lean’s sword pierced his chest.
It was strange that no matter how wounded Rahiyan was, he could not react. Lean’s sword was that quiet and fast. So much so that it’s hard to even catch a trace of it.
Rahiyan widened his eyes. She made a gurgling sound for a moment, and then she slowly fell backwards.
Rahiyan fell down looking at the sky and touched his chest with trembling hands. His hands were full of red blood.
“ah.”
Rahiyan’s voice, which had been screaming until now, became calm.
His eyes, which had been blurry due to the obsession, returned to clarity and a faint smile appeared on his face.
“Lean. “You were there.”
“Rahiyan… … .”
“Lean. Look at this. “I defeated the enemy.”
Rahiyan was looking at something different with Lean with his transparent eyes.
A glorious fight.
The final battle that was so longing to end my life.
Rahiyan swung his sword there. Even when his comrades died and his precious people fell one by one, he did not stop swinging his sword. He couldn’t even remember how much he had fought.
The enemies.
And, the winner or loser of the fight.
What happened?
“Lean. I can’t see anything around. I have no feeling in my body. Lean. Please answer me. Did we win? “We won, right?”
Even though I was panting in pain, I asked earnestly.
Everyone solemnly watched the scene.
“We won, right?”
Leanne suppressed the rising sadness.
Rahiyan’s betrayal was shocking, and she hated him for lying to her for 32 years. But more than that, I felt sadness and pity at his death as a comrade in arms with whom he had fought for 32 years.
In the end, he was unable to escape the battlefield until the very end.
Lean bit his lip with a complicated face, then nodded heavily.
“okay. Rahiyan. “We won.”
“… … “You won.”
Rahiyan smiled innocently like a child.
It was his first smile, something I had not seen even once in 32 years.
“Lean. I think that’s it for now. I hear a voice from above. great ancestors. They call me. Mother, father. And my dead brother is also there. My friends, my comrades. They are calling me. okay. Everyone over there… … “You were waiting.”
“okay. Rahiyan. That’s where you need to go.”
“Where should I go?”
“The place you wanted to go so badly. The land of salvation you have longed for. “Your long fight until now was only for this moment.”
“I did… … “I see.”
Rahiyan coughed and vomited blood.
The energy drained from my entire body, and my fingertips became cold.
My body became heavier and heavier, but my spirit became lighter than anything else.
“at las… … I can rest… … .”
He can finally go to the land of salvation he longs for.
I was finally able to meet my separated family.
“okay.”
Lean closed Rahiyan’s eyes with his hands.
“Just take a break.”
Did he eventually go to the land of salvation?
Did he betray his comrades and go to an abyss where he would suffer endlessly?
Lean, who realized that all those assumptions were meaningless, meditated in silence, which he had repeated ad nauseam from the past to the present.
