Chapter 314
After Raon rubbed his eyes, he saw a squirrel on top of a chest of drawers.
‘Squirrel is right… .’
Am I even dreaming?
Again, nothing special. An ordinary squirrel without any energy, including magic, sorcery, speculation, or aura. I couldn’t believe what this guy said.
“It’s a bit embarrassing to look at me so openly.”
The squirrel gave a gentle smile and tilted its head.
“her… .”
When I heard the squirrel’s quiet tone, my mouth naturally opened. It wasn’t a dream either.
“What are you?”
“You called my name.”
As if the squirrel was embarrassed, he lowered his small hand down and smiled lightly.
It was the first time I knew that a squirrel could change its expression so freely.
“long time no see. Raon.”
“Merlin… .”
Raon bit his lip. As I initially felt, Merlin’s soul was nestled inside that squirrel.
“As expected, hearing my name in your voice is the most exciting.”
Merlin shook his head. No, I was going to upload it, but now she was a squirrel, so I could only see her rubbing the fur around her head.
-That, that obsessed woman?
Lars freaked out and ran away.
-I knew you weren’t dead, but you came all the way here! It’s crazy that I can’t handle it!
The guy shook his chin, asking, “What kind of people are there?”
-Keukeueugh, the trauma comes to mind.
Lars collapsed on the bed, clutching his head.
‘I’ll tell you something if I know you’re not dead.’
Raon frowned at Lars struggling.
“I came, where are you looking?”
Merlin snapped his fingers as he perched on a chest of drawers. This time she seemed to be trying to pretend to be thick, but all she could see was her tail hair waving fluffy.
“Did he not die?”
“Were you worried about me? Happy!”
“after… .”
A sigh comes out of nowhere. Seeing that the conversation didn’t work, Merlin was certain.
“How did you get out of there?”
“Even a rabbit makes a hole to escape through, but a human should have a lifeline.”
Merlin shook his hand as if asking why he was asking something obvious.
“Even though I sacrificed quite a bit thanks to your grandfather.”
As she continued to speak, her expression became bitter. From joy to sadness. It was amazing that she could express her expression so well in the form of a squirrel.
“Is the Golden Face still alive?”
“The ‘Golden Face’ is dead.”
“hmm… .”
Merlin’s tone was a little strange, but he nodded.
“Then did you become that squirrel in order to survive?”
“no. my body is somewhere else Why do you want to see it?”
“Can it be?”
Raon let out a deep sigh and shook his head. He hadn’t talked much, but he was already tired.
“Then what does it look like?”
“When I heard the news that the meeting was being held, I used the method of putting my thoughts into this squirrel very slowly. Since neither the body nor the soul of this child is touched, no one knows.”
I didn’t use mana or magic, and I didn’t even think about using this squirrel to attack, so everyone seemed to think it was just an ordinary squirrel.
“There must have been no talk of me going to the Six Emperors Conference, right? Also, the one being held at Owen has spread recently.”
“Since you are a party to this meeting, I thought of course you would come. Just in case you didn’t know, I scattered small animals all over the land that would not be suspected.”
Merlin laughed and covered his mouth with his finger.
“crazy… .”
Nothing came out beyond that.
‘This is scary… .’
I got goosebumps when I heard that not only did they predict their movements, but they also scattered small animals all over the yukhwang so that they could prepare for any situation.
-Turn it off!
Lars covered his ears as if he didn’t want to hear. It seemed that he, too, had suffered from this obsession.
“So why did you come to see me?”
“It’s only natural that the family is together.”
Merlin smiled, as if asking why he would ask such a thing.
“It’s a pity that I can’t hug you like I did when I was there.”
“The bullshit… .”
“Then who do you think put you to bed? You even slept on my lap while you were wearing the mask.”
“Um… .”
I honestly didn’t remember. She was sitting in a chair, and when she woke up, she remembered lying on the floor.
“Stop talking nonsense, tell me honestly. Why did you come.”
“I’m worried about you.”
Merlin’s excited voice sank low for the first time.

“There is no need to worry as the head of the household is by your side who can easily defeat your chiefs… .”
“Tacheon is targeting you.”
Merlin shook his head as he tried to bring up Glenn’s story.
“Are you targeting me?”
Raon frowned at Merlin.
“Is it because the head of the family who came because of me caused devastating damage to Eden?”
“no.”
Merlin shook his head resolutely. Her squirrel look, she slowly began to adapt.
“Because of your future.”
“future?”
“Tacheon said that you will become the biggest enemy in accomplishing the cause of Eden, and he intends to kill you this time.”
“This opportunity?”
“He also consumes a lot of strength in various ways, so he can’t move freely.”
She laughed and said it would be okay if she held on this time.
“I don’t know when I’ll be aiming for it during the meeting. It won’t be when the heads of the Six Emperors like your grandfather are nearby.”
That would be right. No matter how secretly Tacheon tried, she couldn’t avoid Glenn’s eyes.
“Did you even borrow the body of an animal to tell me that?”
Raon narrowed his eyes as he pointed at Merlin, who had become a squirrel.
“of course. They are family.”
Merlin shook his head and nodded.
“hmm… .”
Raon bit his lip.
‘What should I say about this?’
I thought Merlin was crazy when he tried his best to stop the White Blood Church and Eden, but I never imagined that he would give out information like this.
I felt sorry because I thought I knew why she was doing this.
“Here I… .”
“Oh, there is one more.”
Merlin raised a finger.
“I heard this on the way, and your name came out of the mouth of Derus Robert.”
“what?”
I didn’t expect the story of Derus to come out of nowhere, so I raised my head wildly.
“I was worried that he looked at you strangely, so I approached him pretending it was a coincidence, but your name came up twice in one word. Raon and Raon Sieghart. Isn’t that a bit strange?”
“After that?”
“I couldn’t hear it because of the shock. If I went any closer, this body would have been torn apart.”
She licked her lips, saying that she should have improved the squirrel’s hearing a bit more.
“Raon and Raon Sieghart. Twice… ?”
Raon swallowed dry saliva.
‘no way.’
It is not uncommon to put a person’s name twice in one word.
In addition, the words Raon and Raon Sieghart rang an alarm in my head.
‘Are you suspecting that the child in my previous life and the present me are related?’
It sounds ridiculous, but it seemed to be the most probable of all the predictions that emerged from Merlin’s words.
‘Let’s think about it.’
How many times have I been assassinated?
The first time was when I was aiming for the back of the green warbler, but I saw no outsiders. The second time was when he cut down the four apostles, and quite a few people witnessed it.
‘You can’t recognize me with that alone.’
Thinking just in case, he used an assassination sword that applied the swordsmanship he had learned so far, not the assassination weapon he had learned from the Robert family.
At the level of the unmanned people there, it would not have been possible to notice.
‘Then it must mean that I’m not sure.’
If he had any confidence in Derus when he met him, he would surely have asked a thought-provoking question.
Judging from the situation so far, Derus’ suspicion wasn’t that great.
‘Now I understand.’
Derus’s gaze was strange when he first met, not because of the Yonan family affair, but because he thought he was Raon in his previous life and doubted him.
‘Why are you suspicious? I’m not a crazy person to compare just because we have the same name.’
No matter how much he thought about it, he couldn’t come up with a reason for Derus to suspect that he was Raon in his previous life.
‘no. That’s not what’s important right now.’
We need to think of a way to avoid Derus’s suspicions.
Woo woo.
Raon exhaled all the oxygen in his lungs and closed his eyes.
‘The action of Doubting Derus is… .’
It’s obvious. I’ll have Matio look at me to see if I still have any traces of the assassin.
Mattio is the closest aide to Derus, who brainwashed him and trained him to be an assassin, and is the shadowy butler.
It was clear that he would observe his every move and check for traces of the assassin.
‘Even though it’s meaningless.’
Raon bit his lip and gave a cool smile.
‘I’ve already erased everything.’
After realizing that Loen was an assassin, he erased all actions or movements that an assassin would do so that not even the slightest trace was revealed.
Thanks to Sylvia, he went from an assassin to a prosecutor, so even if he was an instructor who directly brainwashed and educated him, he would never notice.
‘But just in case.’
In my head, I pictured how I would move forward. After examining her body in various directions, she nodded.
“Are you done thinking?”
Merlin, who was gnawing at the chest of drawers, laughed awkwardly. She didn’t seem to have perfect control over her squirrel instincts.
“okay. thank you.”
Raon bowed his head to Merlin. It was because of her misunderstanding, but it really helped me a lot. She said she sincerely thanked her.
“You don’t talk like that between family members.”
Merlin said the same thing Sylvia once said. her heart ached
“You can’t say things like that.”
She stepped down from the chest of drawers and placed a small hand on top of hers. He could feel the warmth in her tiny fingers.
“… … .”
For a moment, I thought about using Merlin like this.
Using the one-sided affection of a grand master level wizard will be of great help to you in your future work.
‘No, no.’
Raon hit his cheek hard. The sound of flesh being ripped echoed through the quiet room.
“Raon?”
-Hey, are you crazy now too?
Merlin and Lars opened their eyes.
‘that’s right. It’s crazy.’
If you use Merlin like that, you are no different from Derus Robert, who makes you burn with vengeance even after reincarnation.
Even if it’s an enemy, you shouldn’t do anything that makes fun of people’s lives.
“Tell me again. thanks for the info But I am not your family Lokta Deporte. His soul was absorbed by me.”
Raon looked at Merlin and honestly told him what had happened in the spirit world.
“He is no longer in this world. I am your enemy, and I am not the one to help you.”
“Did Lokta say anything at the end?”
“you… .”
Leon closed his eyes. His last words were still lingering in my memory. It was nothing special, but I will never forget it for the rest of my life.
“I worried. You said you had a sin, but you had a reason for committing it.”
“okay. I see… .”
I waited for the resentment to return from Merlin, but she was silent for a long time.
“Raon. After all, you are Rockta.”
Merlin laughed softly. It was the look of a squirrel who ate sunflower seeds until his stomach burst.
“Rockta is a knight, so he doesn’t do anything shameful.”
“Because I’m not Lokta!”
“You said it before. As long as Lokta’s soul dwells, you are Lokta to me.”
“I am Raon Sieghart.”
“I will call you that. Raon.”
“Big… .”
Raon bit his lip. I thought it was okay, but the rainy season started again.
“It doesn’t matter if my love is one-sided. Like I said, that’s what family is like.”
“I am not your family… .”
“Ah, time is running out.”
Merlin’s voice trembled, and the squirrel’s fur stood on end.
“If this thought persists, it will become a burden to this child as well. I hope you survive this time too.”
She smiled one last time and waved. It looked like a cute squirrel, but it felt like seeing Merlin’s greeting in real life.
“If I disappear, feed this child. Because it was such a deal.”
After those last words, the squirrel’s eyes widened.
Queek?
The squirrel, who came to his senses, stared blankly at himself and hid in the corner of the bed.
– It’s a crazy obsession. It was scary… .
Lars looked over the chest of drawers where Merlin was and his chin trembled.
‘Maybe.’
-I don’t know why there are only crazy people around you!
‘hmm… .’
Raon couldn’t bring himself to say that you were ‘the weirdest’.
smart.
As I shook my head and tried to call out a squirrel that had gotten under the bed, I heard a knock outside.
“Unstoppable lord! Why aren’t you coming! It’s our turn to enter!”
It was Dorian’s urgent voice.
“Dorian, come in for a second.”
“yes?”
He opened the door and came inside.
“Do you have any nuts?”
“It is, of course it is. peanut? almond? walnut? pistachio? sunflower seeds? pine nut? Mr. Pumpkin? cashew nuts? I have everything.”
It’s been a long time since I felt it, but it’s really great preparation.
“With sunflower seeds and peanuts.”
“yep!”
Dorian nodded, took out a nut-filled cylinder from her stomach sac, and gave her sunflower seeds and peanuts.
“Come out.”
Peanuts and sunflower seeds were slowly passed under the bed, and the squirrels slowly came out of the bed, biting each one in their mouths.
“Eh? squirrel? Why is the squirrel here?”
“Because I’m hungry.”
Laughing bitterly, he picked up the squirrel with sunflower seeds in his cheek pouch and set it down on the window sill. He looked behind him for a moment, tilted his head, and then disappeared toward the garden.
Raon watched the sun go down for a while before putting on his coat.
“let’s go.”
* * *
When I followed Dorian to the banquet hall, the others were nowhere to be seen, and only swordsman Sieghart was waiting at the door.
‘As expected, we were the last.’
Originally, at a banquet, those with the lowest rank and age entered first, so Sieghart was the last to enter.
“Hey, Raon. did it grow a lot? making me wait?”
Rimer approached with a wobbly gait and frowned.
“The sober lord dares to sober… Whoops!”
“You take more time.”
Of course, before arguing, Sheryl slapped her on the side and pulled her to the side.
“Raon. what happened?”
Runan approached and tilted his head.
“no. It didn’t matter.”
Raon smiled lightly and shook his head. It was troubling, but it wasn’t something I would tell anyone about.
“My lord. Everyone gathered.”
Cheryl bowed her head toward the waiting room on the right, and the door opened, revealing Glenn. It wasn’t a robe, it was her usual uniform, but she looked better in it.
“let’s go.”
He looked this way for a moment, narrowed his eyes, then nodded slightly.
“yes!”
The swordsmen Sieghart, led by Cheryl, answered and followed Glenn at the door of the banquet hall.
“Welcome to the heroes of Sieghart.”
The knights guarding the door slammed their spears toward the floor and opened the banquet hall’s door. At the same time, the grand shouts of the emcees inside swept the banquet hall.
[Supreme King of the North, Glen Sieghart, and Sieghart’s heroes enter!]
The atmosphere of the busy banquet hall subsided in an instant, and all eyes turned to this direction.
“That man is Glen Sieghart, King of the North.”
“Now, isn’t this a joke? What kind of person’s momentum… .”
“Ugh, I’m out of breath.”
“Was it true that I overpowered the White Blood Religion Master and Tacheon alone?”
“More than before. I can’t see properly… .”
Those who faced Glenn shook their chins, unable to raise their gazes or look into his eyes, suppressed by his spirit.
‘It’s terrifying.’
Originally, strong people save their energy to some extent, but Glenn rather had a personality that revealed that power, so everyone’s faces turned pale.
‘This is good.’
Raon smiled lightly, feeling the calm atmosphere.
‘No one pays attention to me.’
With Glenn taking all the eyes, he didn’t have to force himself to hide his presence. She seemed to be able to comfortably fulfill her purpose of coming here.
“Come this way.”
As the owner of this place, King Lecross, who was sitting on the podium first, pointed to the seat next to him and smiled. Derus was already sitting on his left.
Raon looked at Derus while pretending to look at Glenn’s back as he climbed up the podium, and his eyes met.
Derus smiled as if seeing it again. Seeing the guy’s pretentious laugh, his head started to heat up again.
– This idiot… .
Lars, feeling the anger boiling inside, frowned.
‘don’t worry.’
’cause it’s okay now
Raon used the Ring of Fire to subdue his rising anger. He bowed his head at De Ruth, smiling without the slightest wrinkle.
When I raised my head, I saw that Derus’ expression hardened slightly.
With a natural expression, he looked at the two butlers behind him.
‘It’s on the right side.’
The old butler on the left was an errand boy in charge of Yangji’s work, and the middle-aged butler with a friendly impression on the right was the real powerhouse, and it was clear that he was Mattio, who was hiding his identity.
‘This is why I don’t know about worldly affairs.’
Thanks to the variable called Merlin, which no one predicted, it was this side, not the other side, that put the opponent to the test.
Raon turned his back on them and gave a cool smile.
‘long time no see. Instructor.’
