The Standard of Reincarnation Episode 71
“Ironically, shadows require light to exist.”
There must be light to have a shadow.
But their power comes from complete darkness.
“So you are a clan of darkness who believe themselves to be a clan of shadows.”
This was something Kazin himself taught.
Samion’s immediate descendants, including Kazin, knew the real name of the Asbion clan.
“Even the most complete darkness cannot overcome the faintest light.”
They did not recognize their own power.
Therefore, we were unable to properly respond to this unexpected situation.
Julian asked.
-Brother, what are you doing without cutting?
‘It’s not that I don’t cut, it’s that I can’t cut.’
Only then did Julian let out a huff of laughter.
Vincen’s condition came into view.
Although he seemed calm on the outside, Vincen was not in a state where he could generate mana and swing the sword.
-Is this a bluff? Did you fool me too?
Even though they were mentally connected, Julian could not feel it.
This means that Vincen’s self-control was thorough, and that he had reached the point where he was deceiving even himself.
‘Well, there are all these old men.’
Julian kept his mouth shut.
Because if I say any more, I might upset Vincen.
Right now, we were making time through conversation.
Vincen said:
“When the most complete darkness falls, you are at your strongest.”
“W-what are you talking about!”
“Because you couldn’t kill me when I was at my strongest, I had more time to spare, and this is what happened in the end.”
Light was created by squeezing that small gap.
The dark clan, facing the light, temporarily lost strength and panicked.
That created the current situation.
Vincen walked a few steps forward.
“Oh, don’t come.”
Vincen looked down at the spirit killer with emotionless eyes.
I took a deep breath while speaking.
There was only one chance.
“If you kill me, you won’t be safe. “I am a guide.”
“What do you mean?”
“If you get rid of me, the Holy King’s tomb will collapse.”
Vincen decided that those words were not completely false.
When I cut off the leg of the Young Assassin, I felt the ‘Tomb of the Holy King’ shake greatly.
Stone dust was falling from all over the ceiling.
“You can never get out by yourself.”
“… … .”
“Didn’t your younger brother teach you earlier? This is a place where only forward progress is possible. “I need the power of a guide to get back.”
“is it.”
“If you save my life, I will hand over the Holy Grail and send you outside. “Just spare my life.”
“Is the Holy Grail in your territory?”
“that’s right. We’ve kept it that way for a long time.”
“Who ordered that?”
“It was an oath with the Holy King.”
Vincen shook his head.
“It’s not the Holy King.”
“… … what?”
They are not guardians in the true sense of the word.
“If you really made an oath with the Holy King, there would have been a message telling you to hand over the Holy Grail when the true owner appears. “Was there something like that in the oath?”
“Well, that’s… … !”
It is not a covenant with the Holy King,
It may have been Samion’s brainwashing.
“You may have simply been set up to prevent the Holy Grail from finding its true owner.”
No matter how powerful a clan is, they cannot live for 500 years.
Only now have we been able to find out their exact identities.
“You were already dead a long time ago. And all I had left was to guard the Holy Grail without any meaning.”
“no!”
The old guardians are like that.
Only blind will remains.
“A long time ago, King Seong knew that I would come.”
The Holy King and Aslan.
They both predicted this day.

“Maybe Samion was worried about that too.”
It seems that not only Aslan predicted this day, but Samion also did so.
I realized one thing.
‘However, I did not have as much confidence as Aslan.’
If I had been as confident as Aslan, I would have prepared stronger measures instead of just a shell of a ‘spirit killer’.
The spirit killer’s body trembled.
“… … you.”
While she was very angry, she noticed it too.
“It was an intention to waste time.”
Black energy emanated like a stream from the severed leg.
The shape of a complete leg was not achieved.
It looked like a prosthetic leg.
She bowed down.
“I’ll kill you.”
It bounced like a spring and narrowed the distance to Vincenne.
Just before the spirit killer’s right sword reached Vincen’s stomach, Vincen used one energy.
“Recognize your master.”
Chapter 1 of Samion Swordsmanship.
Yugeom Steel Manufacturing (柔劍制剛).
Red-yellow power began to bloom from Vincen’s body.
Yugeom Steel, which stopped the flames that engulfed Hongryeon in Han Sen’s blacksmith shop.
The sword’s magic flowed smoothly and blocked the spirit assassin’s sword.
“Da, da, da, you!”
Vincen sighed in relief.
‘It was dangerous.’
Thanks to buying time through conversation, I was able to use Yugeom Steel.
The spirit killer’s body trembled as he felt the sword steel and red yellow power.
“Are you his descendant?”
“Him?”
Moment,
Pop!
Blood splattered.
The spirit killer stabbed himself in the neck.
“Si, si, si, I hate it!”
It had nothing to do with will.
She stabbed herself in the neck repeatedly.
“no! “Aaaah!”
It felt like my body wasn’t listening.
The young killer died on the spot.
Vincen silently looked at the body of the spirit killer.
-Brother, why doesn’t that body disappear?
Melinon disappeared into ashes.
But now, the body of this spirit killer remains.
‘They mixed 7 truths with 3 lies.’
Then even lies become like the truth.
In fact, there are times when it feels more like the truth than the truth of 10.
“That spirit assassin called himself a guide, and said that if he wanted to go back, he would need the power of a guide.”
In any case, it seemed true that the ‘power of guidance’ was necessary.
“We already saw it.”
Vincen approached the body of the spirit killer.
It was the same as the corpses from before.
The index finger was bent into a strange shape.
“What the guide did earlier.”
Vincen took out a chrysanthemum flower from his arms.
-Well, when did you prepare that?
I picked it up earlier when the pile of ashes was completely burned down.
There was another white chrysanthemum in Melinon’s arms, and strangely enough, it did not burn easily in the fire.
So, I applied the art of hand fighting and picked it up.
Vincen placed chrysanthemums in front of the body of the dead person and prayed in silence like Melinon did.
There was no significant change.
‘Do you remember what Melinon said earlier? ‘Tell me the exact expression.’
Julian recited Melinon’s words accurately with his superhuman memory.
-Now that I have met you today, this child will happily face extinction.
“Now that I have met you today, this child will happily face extinction.”
That was the keyword.
Just as the skull had moved earlier, the spirit assassin’s left hand moved.
Red light began to leak from my fingers.
It became a line and pointed inside the barrier.
Vincen raised his head and checked the line.
‘Finding the Holy Grail.’
I felt a crack forming in this space.
As Youngsalja said, this place will definitely collapse.
I felt like I didn’t have much time.
‘Aslan and the Holy King were sure that I would come.’
If so, the next arrangement must have been prepared.
They must have prepared a way to escape from this place that can never be escaped.
It was up to Vincennes himself to find it.
‘Where there is the Holy Grail, there will be an arrangement.’
Without hesitation, Vincen headed to the ‘territory’ of the spirit assassins.
* * *
passed the barrier.
It was a large underground cavity, and there was a large pillar in the center that seemed to support the cavity.
-older brother. There’s something over there.
Under the pillar.
I saw something that looked like a small altar.
When I got closer, I saw that it was a ‘coffin’.
‘It doesn’t seem like there are any traps.’
Vincen stood in front of the coffin.
-It’s no joke!
‘what?’
-I feel an incredible excitement. Try breathing harder, brother.
Vincen couldn’t feel the divine energy itself, but he could feel Julian’s energy getting stronger.
-Wow, I really feel like a god.
Julian was very excited.
Separately, Vincen observed the coffin for a moment.
Patter.
Stone dust continued to fall from the ceiling.
‘There won’t be much time.’
Julian is feeling a strong divine energy.
There didn’t seem to be any traps in the coffin.
‘Open.’
There was no time to think for long.
Vincen carefully opened the coffin lid.
‘person?’
There was a body lying inside.
It was in pristine condition as if it had been treated with preservation magic.
-Ugh, ugh! The body rises!
The body rose up.
Through the mana flow, Vincen noticed that this body was a fake made of magic.
The body opened its mouth.
“Are you someone who pursues the truth?”
There was no soul in the eyes.
It seemed as if he was saying something that had been written in advance.
“Has this day come?”
“… … .”
“Aslan is right.”
A small staff was created in his right hand.
“Take this.”
Vincen accepted it.
It was a small wand that oozed unusual energy.
“In the future, it will guide you to heavenly fruit.”
The ‘cheongwa’ that Vincen and Julian were desperately wanting right now flowed from the man’s mouth.
I don’t know exactly, but it was clear that I was one step closer to achieving heavenly fruition.
“And take this.”
A small golden cup was created in his left hand.
It was the Holy Grail.
Julian shouted in surprise.
-It’s an incredible amount of magic. I don’t know how much of that I can absorb… … ! Drink quickly, brother. It’s flying even at this moment.
Without hesitation, Vincen gulped down the holy water contained in the chalice.
Although no significant changes were felt in the body itself, Julian’s presence had greatly increased.
An enormous amount of divine energy was being delivered to Julian.
“I did everything I had to do. I kept my promise to my friend. Thank you for coming to me. “If there are any descendants of mine, they will be very grateful to you.”
There was no need to answer the Holy King who was already dead, but Vincen bowed his head towards the Holy King.
It was the last courtesy to King Seong.
“Bless your future.”
The man disappeared.
At the same time,
Jeok-
A loud sound was heard.
The huge pillar supporting this space began to crack.
bang!
A huge rock fell from the ceiling.
The entrance I came in was completely blocked.
‘I can’t see the exit.’
-Brother, aren’t you being too carefree?
At best, I have acquired a lot of divine energy.
But what good is it if I die here?
‘Don’t worry too much.’
Aslan and the Holy King prepared for this day.
Samion also deployed spiritual assassins in preparation for today.
It’s probably Samion’s way to destroy this place.
‘If he had the brains to organize this place, he would have expected Samion to keep him in check.’
You would also know that the check was not a very advanced method.
If so, they would have expected this place to be destroyed.
Because there is no easy or simple preparation like destroying it.
“In the end, there will be a next hand.”
Vincen had already felt it.
A strong and familiar energy coming towards us from afar.
Even if I couldn’t feel divine energy, I could feel mana.
“Isn’t that right, Master?”
Vincen’s teacher and successor to Feilker’s name has appeared.
