Chapter 442
Raon flicked his fingertips as he ran to the street corner where the iron belt was last seen.
‘They said the trail suddenly cut off on the road.’
According to the information booklet Chad had given him, it was written that the Iron Guards stayed overnight in Roylan Village and then disappeared when they returned.
Looking at the situation where Master Superlative Trevin and the entire Iron Guard disappeared without leaving any traces, it was clear that a special force or artifact had worked.
‘I need to know what it is… .’
As of now, there is no answer.
Since the disappearance of the Cheoljeondae was at dawn, there was so little information that it was impossible to solve the mystery.
Leon licked his dry lips and furrowed his eyes.
‘Malyun and Binghyang.’
The two floor owners of the Black Tower that Biyeonhoe investigated were demons with the nicknames of Maryun and Binghyang, respectively.
Contrary to its name, the horse wheel handles two pairs of wheels that are white enough to give off a sacred feeling. However, it is said that if he uses more than 50% of his demonic energy, the color of the ring will be colored like the deep sea, and it will exert a different power than before.
On the other hand, Binghyang is said to handle the energy of the water attribute as freely as her body, just like her own body, but when she releases her true power, a fragrance is released in the cold air, and a strange rumor says that those who smell the fragrance will die before walking five steps. there was
‘Both of them are higher than the Black Mage.’
The rank of the Black Tower is determined by which floor they belong to, and both Maryun and Binghyang were known to use the upper floor than the Black Water Field that Raon treated.
Maryun and Binghyang were both demons who had been notorious for a long time, so it wouldn’t have been too difficult to subdue the iron warships. Probably, even if only one of the two stepped forward, the Iron Guard would have been annihilated.
‘but… .’
No matter how much it was Maryun and Binghyang, it was unreasonable to make the iron belt disappear without leaving any traces.
‘Either one. Or maybe they both got new abilities.’
Even the non-banquet’s elite informants couldn’t figure out how the Cheoljeondae went missing, so they had to gather information as soon as possible.
‘I have to start from here.’
Raon used both the ring of fire and the sense of tales at the same time.
Whoa!
The ring of fire that resonates and the skill of the demon king that flows thrillingly meshes like a cogwheel. The inner mana and the outer mana were combined, and with the sensation of floating, the sight and senses were opened several times as if a blind man opened his eyes.
Numerous presences are felt in the spreading feeling.
The movement of small wild animals and insects could be felt on the lower side where the forest was thick and the river flowed, and on the upper side, where there was a pure white snowy field, it was quiet as if no one was there, but the faint breathing of animals hibernating under the ground could be heard.
Raon spread his senses even wider, clenching and opening his fists.
‘It’s strange.’
The range is wider than before.
The range of senses increased by more than 10% compared to just before returning to the family. After I went back, I only focused on swordsmanship training rather than Auror training, so I don’t know why this happened.
In addition, there was no burden even though he was putting all his energy and footwork in full force. Even if the battle continued like this, he seemed to be able to exert all his power.
‘Did he not only raise the level of swordsmanship, but the level itself?’
Glenn and Rektar seemed to have expanded the scope of martial arts beyond simply teaching them the tricks of swordsmanship.
It wasn’t the swordsmen who stood at the top of the continent for nothing to make such an achievement in just one week.
‘but… .’
I couldn’t catch anything even with the heightened sense of humor.
Even though the range and sensitivity of his senses increased, he did not feel the remnants of magic or battle.
‘Las.’
Raon frowned and tapped the head of Lars, who was riding on his shoulder.
‘Do you feel anything?”
– Nothing so far. But even if you know, do you think the main king will tell you about it?
The boy flicked his tongue in a mocking expression.
‘but. You’re that kind of guy.’
Raon wrinkled his brow and flicked off Lars’ tongue with his fingers.
– Ah! The king’s tongue worth 10 million gold coins! God’s tongue!
Leaving Lars searching for God on the subject of the demon king, I focused my mind again on the feeling.
‘Still, thanks to that guy, I learned something.’
You’d think Lars didn’t give any hints, but he said he never had. In other words, he meant that there was no need to investigate from the time he rode the portal until now.
Raon smiled lightly as he watched Lars rubbing his thick tongue with tears in his eyes.
‘As expected, Lass is generously given.’
* * *
Raon and Gwangpungdae ran nonstop and arrived at Roylan Village, where the Iron Guard was last seen.
“Wow, what town is that?”
Martha frowned at Roylan Village.
“surely. It’s too inconsistent.”
Burren gave a small nod in agreement with Martha’s words.
“High and low.”
Runaan tilted his head, looking at the buildings with high roofs and those with low roofs.
In fact, it’s only natural for the Gwangpungdae prosecutors to be so surprised.
Roylan was a medium-sized town, neither big nor small, and as befits a place with both northern and central climates, the styles of the buildings located above and below were starkly different.
The north side was built high enough to keep the snow from accumulating, and the center, where there was no snow at all, was so blunt that it seemed flat.
To an uninformed person, it would be thought that two villages from different regions were forcibly merged.
‘Every time I see it, it’s unique.’
Raon entered Roylan Village, which hadn’t changed a bit since he had seen it before.
Ominousness and busyness coexisted in the village, probably because they knew about the disappearance of the Cheoljeondae and the movements of the Black Tower.
“You are here.”
I was going to look around the village first, but a black-haired middle-aged man in a yellow suit with a small bird drawn on the end approached and bowed his head.
“My name is Ruzen, the 8th wing of the non-banquet.”

He muttered in a low voice that he was an outside informant for the non-banquet. His dress and demeanor made sense, but he nodded right away because he had heard that Chad had someone to help.
“My name is Raon Sieghart, Lord of the Storm Troops.”
“It is an honor to meet you.”
Luzen nodded his head with his eyes wide open as if he were serious about what he said.
“How is the situation?”
“It won’t be much different from the information you received before.”
He sighed, saying that he had searched Roylan Village and its surroundings, but nothing had changed.
“I searched every villager and every building, but nothing strange came up.”
“Didn’t the black tower’s floor pillars hear from here?”
“yes. It is said that no one has ever seen the black robe itself.”
The characteristic of the black tower is a black robe that seems to be wrapped in darkness. Ruzen shook her head, saying that the Black Tower was not here at all.
“Does that make sense?”
Marta frowned and scanned the village from side to side.
“I heard that the Black Towers also came out from around here!”
“That’s right.”
Ruzen nodded without embarrassment, as if he already knew about Martha’s personality.
“The place where the iron warships were last seen isn’t far from here, is it?”
“you’re right.”
“But does it make sense that only the humans in this town don’t know!”
No matter how much she thought about it, Marta said it was strange and rolled her eyes wide open.
“I’m sure one person will know. Let’s just find him.”
“How are you going to find it?”
Raon sighed as he saw Martha snapping her fingers.
“What do you ask? Of course you have to beat it. There’s nothing you can’t beat!”
Marta shouted something she had heard somewhere and asked for permission.
“It’s great too.”
Runan raised his thumbs up as if in praise of Martha. But he continued, tipping his thumb under the floor.
“It’s a stupid idea that only a demon woman can do.”
“You slug bastard!”
“joy.”
Marta and Runan started a fight by kicking each other.
Raon shook his head and closed his eyes. He raised his rage and aroused the sense of narrative to the fullest. He scratched the traces of iron belts and black pagodas all over the village, feeling my skin spread through the air.
‘As expected.’
Like Luzen said, he didn’t feel the presence of the Iron Guard or the demonic power of the Black Tower. Neither of them left a trace here.
Raon opened his eyes. Marta and Runan were now holding their palms and fighting for strength.
“stop.”
He raised his palms to separate the two of them, then shook his head.
“Gathering information by beating people in a hurry is not a good way. I don’t think any information will come out as a fan.”
“uh… ?”
“what?”
When I said that, the windmill swordsmen raised their dazed eyes.
‘No, that’s what you always do!’
‘Not only the enemies, but also us!’
‘If things don’t work out, think about whether you’re short on hawks!’
The Gwangpungdae prosecutors opened their mouths, recalling Raon’s words and actions, but Raon didn’t care.
“It’s done. because i’m going back Get ready.”
Raon gestured to the windmill and approached Luzen, who was behind him.
“Could you guide me to the place where the last traces of the Cheoljeondae remain?”
“It’s a bit far from here, is that okay?”
“It doesn’t matter.”
“Then let’s start right away.”
Ruzen nodded and went out of town and took steps. His weaponry itself didn’t look so outstanding, but he was quick and relaxed enough to be considered a master at one step.
Following him, I opened my senses again as much as possible. I looked at the flow of the wind, the movement of animals and people, and the erratic energy.
However, both the forest and the snowfield were peaceful. In the end, nothing was found until Ruzen stopped walking.
“This is it.”
Ruzen sighed and pointed forward. You can see Sodo, which is slightly off the highway in Hofirn.
Above, there was a frozen lake in a pale black color, and below, a clear lake was swaying in the sinking sunlight.
A small, narrow road that cuts between two lakes in stark contrast. It was not an iron belt, but a beautiful spectacle that anyone had no choice but to stop.
“The traces of the iron belt were finally cut off here. however… .”
Ruzen stopped explaining and looked away. Swordsmen in gray uniforms appeared on the road between the lakes he pointed with his finger at.
Even the sharp yet firm eyes like a blade polished by a craftsman, and the pattern of a burning sword embedded upside down. They were the swordsmen of the Baekryundae that Glenn had called first.
It was the first time since the raid on the Eden branch that Baekryundae always turned around because of Daeju’s tendency.
Raon looked at the swordsman’s presence and licked his lips briefly.
‘Certainly strong.’
Perhaps because they only repeated battles and missions from the outside, the Baengnyeondae was stronger than the iron battleships, but had a ferocious spirit.
‘but… .’
die that much
Not everyone can be a hero. Those who survive become stronger, but there are more swordsmen who can’t stand it and die, so it is said that Baekryundae always requests a large number of people. Among the swordsmen he could see, only one had a familiar face.
“It’s Baekryundae.”
“I thought you were coming too… .”
“Why are their eyes open like that? Are you making a fuss?”
Gwangpungdae also recognized Baengnyeondae and flicked its tongue.
“Gwangpungdae? Why is there a windmill?”
“They said they applied for this mission in addition.”
“support? Where do you use them?”
“And now it’s not a windmill, it’s a windmill.”
“Oh, I said I was promoted.”
Baengnyeondae also recognized Gwangpungdae and slightly narrowed their eyes. A disturbing temperament was felt in their tone.
‘How useless.’
Raon let out a short sigh and approached the Baekryundae swordsmen.
“Where is the great lord?”
“Well, where did you go?”
The prosecutor, who seemed to be the leader, whistled and shook his head.
I didn’t want to have a useless fight because I didn’t have much time, but Baengnyeondae didn’t seem to have any intention of doing so. It seemed that the Gwangpungdae applied for this mission to steal the ball from the Baengnyeondae.
“you… .”
“Hey! You bastard!”
When Raon frowned, a double curse came out from behind. The main character was, of course, Martha.
“You don’t even have a F*cking top or bottom? Can’t you see our lieutenant? yes?”
“uh… .”
The lead prosecutor opened his eyes in surprise, perhaps not knowing that he would suddenly be cursed at.
“I know that Gwangpungdae has been promoted, but they are arguing with that. I’m going to die.”
Marta glared at the Baekryundae swordsman with her ferocious eyes shining as if she would attack them at any moment.
“good job.”
Runan nodded, giving Marta a rare round of sincere applause.
“That rat-looking guy… .”
“I’ll tear off your limbs.”
“If you don’t want to get drunk, play around with your snout.”
It’s not just Martha and Runan. The entire Gwangpungdae was glaring at Baengnyeondae with wet mad eyes as if they would bite at any moment. If he argued even a little more, he was ready to run.
“stop.”
Normally, I would have left the windmill to cook, but I don’t have time right now. I had to discuss it with Baekryun Daeju and make a move.
“say. Where are you?”
There was no need for Raon to generate momentum. The leader, who was stunned by the madness of the wind storm, pointed at the lakeside below with his shoulders trembling.
Following that hand, I saw a tall man standing in the center of the Baekryundae swordsmen.
The shoulders are broad like a whale’s, and the jaw is angular. In mythology, the ceiling was rising, but the real thing is his energy. As if a huge mountain itself had nestled in him, an extremely heavy air wave pressed his whole body.
Raon did not operate Aura. With willpower alone, he endured Irond’s momentum and lowered his head.
“Meet the Lord Baekryun.”
“It’s been a while. The lord of the storm troop.”
Irond nodded slowly. He didn’t show his dissatisfaction with not being able to monopolize his duties like the other Baekryun Dae swordsmen, but it was clear that he didn’t like himself from the look in his eyes.
‘Well, there’s no reason to welcome us.’
For now, I just need to get an iron belt, so I decided not to worry about it.
“This is where the last traces of the Iron Guard disappeared.”
He looked at the lake shore and clicked his tongue briefly.
“There was no sign of a fight, and no bodies floated around the lake. It’s weird. However, no matter what force worked, it would not have been able to escape the Hofern region itself.”
Irond turned his gaze this way.
“There is only one best search method. Spreading the Gwangpungdae and Baengnyeondae one by one to search the entire Hopireun. If the swordsmen move in unison, we’ll be able to see everything before dawn.”
He nodded, saying that was the only way to find traces of the iron warships in this land.
“First you go east. Searching all from the entrance… .”
“I’m sorry, but I don’t like it.”
Raon shook his head as Irond opened the map. In the current situation, spreading the number of people one by one was never a good idea.
Even if you can quickly find the traces, the sacrifice could be great, so it was unacceptable.
“uh… .”
“Gee, that’s it… .”
The Baekryundae swordsmen looked sideways at Irond and trembled their lips as if they did not know that he would immediately refuse.
oh oh oh!
Irond stretched his back, holding the half-opened map as if crushing it. A fierce yet heavy gaze like the north wind weighed down my soul.
“Tell me again. What did you just say?”
His gaze became a fierce air wave, pressing down on his shoulder. His skin felt sore as if a blade had been stabbed down, but he stood in front of the irond, pushing back with the force of the soul reinforced by the ring of fire.
“I said no.”
“You seem to really like being told no from before.”
“Because there is no need to deliberately make a victim.”
As Raon’s red eye and Irond’s black eye competed, a deep twist began to unfold in the calm lake.
