Chapter 408

“Aaaaaaahhhhh!”
“Bellicent!”
“He’s dead! He killed Bellicent—slit his throat and killed him!”
“This is insane….”

The former executives of the Arian Family screamed as they stared at the Finance Minister’s corpse, his severed head lying beside him.

“What… what is this….”

Wigen Arian’s face drained of all color as his trembling fingers rose shakily.

“How could you commit such a heinous act!”
“Heinous?”

I twisted my lips as I gazed into Wigen Arian’s wavering pupils.

“The heinous ones are you cowards who abandoned your family in its hour of crisis and fled.”

I ignored the screams and accusations of the former executives and stepped before the Supply Officer.

“Confess your sins.”
“I… I….”

The Supply Officer’s jaw trembled as he met my emotionless gaze.

‘I must beg for mercy!’

This man was different from Wendy Arian.
If I underestimated him for his youth, my neck would fly off just like the Finance Minister’s. I had to swallow my pride and bow my head.

“I’m sorry! Please forgive me just this once!”

The logistics officer bowed and lowered his head. I didn’t make any excuses and just said I was wrong.

“What?”

There was no emotion in Raon’s voice. This time again, he was not deceived by words, but penetrated to the heart of the problem.

“What are you sorry about?”
“What are you apologizing for?”

The logistics officer spoke the truth that none of the executives could.

“You know me well.”

I raised my head with hope when I heard Raon’s voice seem to have softened slightly.

‘It’s an opportunity.’

I had to somehow convince him to survive.

“I will be punished sweetly. I will reform my family for the sake of my family, so give me just one chance….”
“I will accept any punishment gladly. I will dedicate myself entirely to the Family—please, just give me one more chance….”
“That chance has already passed.”

The logistics officer felt light passing before his eyes and lowered his raised hand.

‘what?’

I don’t have any strength, but it hurts so much… .

He collapsed without being able to grasp the red line drawn on his neck. He looked up at the other executive next to him with his eyes wide open, as if he couldn’t believe he was going to die.

“Ugh!”
“Gasp!”
“Aaaaaaahhhhh!”

The Aryan executives retreated to the corner of the throne room as if running away from the blood spilled by the logistics officer.

“This is death and slaughter! Why are you doing this to us who have surrendered!”

Wigen Arian hid behind the top executives and screamed evil.

“No matter how much you have been given full authority by Sieghart, this is beyond your authority!”
“No matter how much authority you’ve been granted by Zigheart, this exceeds the bounds of your power!”
“You’re saying I’ve overstepped my authority?”
“Yes! We are still executives of this Family! What gives you the right to execute us!”

Raon raised his index and middle fingers.

“First of all, I didn’t just take over control of this place from Sieghart.”

As he said that, he pointed to Wendy behind him.

“I am the current head of the Aryan family. I was entrusted with the position of commander-in-chief of the war by Wendy Aryan. And I have not yet declared the war to be over.”

Because he collapsed as soon as the sphere of morale was burned, he could not announce the end of the war. The war of the Aryan family is not over yet.

“In other words, since the war is not over, you can be summarily disposed of with the authority of the Commander-in-Chief.”
“In other words, since the war hasn’t ended, I can execute you all by Supreme Commander’s authority.”
“Ah….”

The executives trembled at the word summary disposition.

“And the second.”

Raon folded his index finger and held his middle finger forward.

“You are not executives. You are criminals. You are thieves who sold out your family, and you are deserters who abandoned your family while it was at war. Even if the war is over, you are still eligible for immediate participation.”

Without a single exception, the executives who have been caught here are not worth saving.
Not a single one of the executives imprisoned here deserved redemption.

They must not be left behind, even if it is for the Aryan family to be reborn.

“You gave me the answer, so let’s continue.”

Raon raised his sword and approached the executives. The executives’ complexions turned yellow at the murderous intent in his eyes.

“Oh, don’t come!”
“Oh, don’t come!”
“Get away!”
“We just wanted to live!”

The executives were curled up in a corner like insects, with the smallest executive being thrown forward like a sacrificial lamb.
The executives huddled in the corner like insects and threw forward the smallest among them as a sacrificial lamb.

“Please, save me. I would have just followed them….”

Instead of listening to everything he said, I tightened my grip on my wrist. The Jecheon sword, curved like a sickle, passed through the officer’s neck.

“ah….”

He fell backwards, trying to stop the blood flowing from his neck.

After that, Raon cut off the heads of six executives before lowering his sword.

‘Uhm… .’

As soon as I woke up, not yet fully recovered, I swung my sword, and my fingertips felt slightly numb.

-So why are you fussing?

Lars clicked his tongue as if he felt pathetic.

-You can take care of those bugs later, so what’s the rush?
-You could deal with these vermin later. What’s the rush?

They are the ones who have ruled this family for a long time.
These were the ones who had dominated the Family for countless ages.

“Whoa….”

Raon narrowed his eyes as he looked at the executives gathered in the corner as if they were one body.
I narrowed my eyes, observing the executives clustered together in the corner like a single mass.

“Wendy.”

Instead of swinging the sword right away, he turned around and looked at Wendy.

“Are you okay?”
“Are you certain you’re alright?”

I was planning on calling her even if she said it wasn’t okay, but she nodded right away.

“It’s going to be hard, so you can stay out.”
“This will be difficult, so it’s fine if you leave.”

Wendy Arian shook her head with eyes that did not waver at all.
Wendy Arian shook her head, her gaze unwavering and resolute.

‘What happened?’

The atmosphere was different from before. A will that seemed to transcend something seemed to bloom on Wendy’s shoulders.

“Are you sure it’s okay?”

Raon asked the last question, chewing his lips thinly.

‘It’s family.’

To her, they are strangers and sinners, but to Wendy, they are family. I was concerned that I would be here to watch until the end.

“It’s okay. As the head of the family, I will see to the end of sinners.”

Wendy looked down at the executives with cold eyes that seemed to be looking at others.

“Wow, Wendy! Didn’t your uncle carry you on his back when you were little?”

The goat-bearded commander in front motioned to Wendy.

“Give me one last chance! If you forgive me just once….”
“P-Please give me one last chance! If you would forgive me just once….”

Wendy glared at him without even turning her head.

“All that will be given to the deserter is a blade.”

He nodded as if he could do it now.

-It’s changed.
-You’ve changed.

Wendy Arian’s insides took on a noticeably different shape. I still can’t quite decide if that’s a good thing or a bad thing.

‘But that doesn’t mean it’s not painful.’

It is impossible to change a person’s personality in three days. Since she would barely be able to tolerate it, it was her job to handle it as cleanly as possible.

Sigh!

Raon struck down the sword raised above. The sword fell without hesitation and cut off the commander’s throat.
I brought the Celestial Sword down from above. Without hesitation, the blade descended and severed the Chief Steward’s neck.

“Wow, it’s Wendy!”
“W-Wendy!”
“How could you do this!”
“After all we’ve done to raise you!”

The executives shouted at Wendy, but Wendy looked at them without blinking.

Raon lowered the heads of those who cursed one by one.

Whoa whoa.

Before we knew it, hot blood was dripping down the sword, and the only person left was Wigen Arian.

“Wow, it’s Wendy!”

Wigen Arian crawled with trembling hands and feet to Wendy.

“I’m sorry! I’ve done everything wrong so far! Please save me!”

He grabbed Wendy’s ankles and cried like a child. I felt like I was panicking because I couldn’t imagine a situation like this.

“I don’t care if I stay in prison for the rest of my life! Please, just save me!”
“I don’t care if I spend my entire life in prison! Please, just spare my life!”
“Do you remember the candy you gave me when I was young?”

Wendy knelt down and lowered her eyes as she looked at Wigen.

‘The reason I have endured under you until now is… .’

It was because of the lollipops.

childhood. It reminds me of the lollipop that Wigen bought me.

The warmth of his father’s hands and the sweetness of lollipops created a life of obedience under him for over 30 years.

I asked him about the lollipop as it was the first and last gift he gave Wigen himself, but as expected, he didn’t seem to remember.

‘Now all the candy has melted.’

During this war, the lollipops that Wigen gave melted without leaving any dust behind. There was no longer any regret for him.

Wendy raised her head. Raon’s gaze brought me a trust that I had never felt even in my family.

The promise I had sworn to follow him came to mind, and my oppressed heart beat violently.

“father.”

Wendy bent her knees and made eye contact with Wigen.

“I wanted to rebuild this family with you.”
“I wanted to rebuild this Family with you.”
“Then….”

A cool feeling like the wind of the North Sea rose above her eyes.

“When the family is in danger, the head of the family abandons the family and runs away while taking hostages. This is something unheard of even in the history of the continent.”

Wendy stands up with a cold, stiff complexion.

“But you don’t have to worry.”
“But there is no need to worry.”

Wigen raised his head at her words. Hope sprouted in those eyes that seemed dead.

“Thank you! Thank you so much! For serving my family all my life….”
“Th-thank you! I’m truly grateful! I’ll serve the family for the rest of my life….”
“You’ve made a grave misunderstanding.”
“What?”

Wendy shook her head, saying she had misunderstood.

“Raon. I’m sorry. Please do me a favor.”
“Raon. I apologize. I ask for your assistance.”

Raon nodded and approached Wigen.

“Now, wait a minute! I am the head of this family….”

To make it easier for Wendy, Wigen’s horse and head were cut off at the same time.

“Ugh….”

Wigen collapsed, scratching his cracked neck with his grimy fingernails.

“after….”

Raon shook off the blood on his sword and took a breath.

Wendy Arian looked at the dead one by one and then raised her head.

“Raon.”

A thin tear flowed down her cheek as she looked at me.

“Can you buy me just one piece of candy?”

A dark room without a single small window.

The sound of muscles and bones twisting could be heard in a dark room where nothing would have been visible were it not for the blue flame blooming from the white bone in the center.

Puddeuddeuk!

The strange sound that had been heard for about an hour stopped, and a ghost wearing the mask of an Arch Lich stood up from under the white bones.

However, his appearance was different from before.
Yet his appearance had changed from before.

“Damn it!”

The ghost struck the ground and screamed.

“Raon Zighatr! How dare you!”

It’s done.

Now that the gem that had been gathering morale for a thousand years was complete, I was confident that I could kill Raon Sieghardt and all the reinforcements he had called.

Rimmer intervened, but since he was weak from dealing with Hell Pilgrim, he was able to deal with it without any problems.

But everything was ruined by Raon Sieghardt, who thought he had it all figured out.

‘You rat!’

Raon Sieghard deliberately hid his power, creating the perception that he could not break the barrier of fraud, and then destroyed the jewel and his own core at the same time with a secret sword imbued with divine power.

Due to divine power, the resurrection was delayed and could only occur after three days.

‘Besides, he didn’t even die.’

I don’t know how, but Raon survived the huge explosion of fraud. He was a very lucky guy.

‘Kill. ‘I’m going to kill you no matter what.’

Until now, I thought it was just an annoying nuisance, but not anymore. I will kill him thoroughly using all the resources I have.

‘No matter how long it takes!’

Although he was revived thanks to the characteristics of the Arch Lich Mask, he lost his best body and jewels, so it will take a long time to regain his strength.

But never give up. I will kill him even if I have to follow him to the end of the continent.

“I will definitely kill you.”
“I will surely slay you.”

As he vowed to kill Raon, an eerie voice could be heard throughout the room.

‘This voice… .’

You’re such a crazy bitch that you can’t help but notice. It was Merlin’s voice.

“Merlin? Why are you in this room!”

The Demon Ghost screamed and turned around, but Merlin was nowhere to be seen.

“Where are you? Come out now!”

He tried to use exploration magic, but he could not use it due to the lack of morale left in his body.

“If you’re going to go crazy, go crazy properly!”

The ghost gave up looking for Merlin and put his hand on the wall to get out, emitting little morale.

“hmm?”

But the door didn’t open. The only way out of this room was frozen, motionless.

“What the hell is this….”

The ghostly spirit lifted its head, its chin shaking. Only after adjusting to the darkness did I begin to see the upper part of the room.

Now that I see it, this is not a room designated for resurrection, but a place like a translucent fish tank with a dark back.

‘Fish tank?’

Could it be a golden fish tank?

The golden fishbowl is an artifact that can trap the desired object inside the fishbowl. Although its ability was absolute, it was considered an almost meaningless tool because it had to spend more than two days in a fish tank to keep it captive.

‘but… .’

After his death, he was immediately sent to the Resurrection Chamber and spent three days in the form of a small bone. In other words, I had no choice but to be trapped in a gold fishbowl.

“Merlin! You crazy bitch! What on earth are you doing? Come out now!”

As the ghost screamed, the wall on the other side shook like spring water, and Merlin, wearing an old woman’s mask, walked out.

“You did something you shouldn’t have done.”

Merlin looked this way and revealed a cool look in his eyes.

“What you shouldn’t do? What do you mean!”
“Something I shouldn’t have? What are you talking about!”
“Raon bled and collapsed.”
“What?”

She said with a creepy smile, saying it was a natural price to pay.

“Do you think Tacheon will let it go like this?”
“Do you think Tacheon will let this slide!”

Merlin shook his head, saying that this body was just an alter ego.

“If it were your normal personality, you wouldn’t appear in front of Tacheon until you regain your strength, so he wouldn’t be suspicious either.”

The hair on her head stood on end as the corners of her mouth curled up on the old woman mask she was wearing.

“I don’t care if I get caught.”
“Even if I’m exposed, it doesn’t matter.”
“What?”

After saying those words, Merlin turned into a bubble and disappeared into the fish tank. When I said it was an alter ego, it seemed like I had returned to my original body.

Grumbling.

The Demon Ghost gritted its teeth.

“It turned. It turned properly.”

Reduction is Eden’s ultimate goal. Raon is not even interested in that. It means that you are completely in love with that young guy.

‘But it’s okay.’

As long as that crazy bitch isn’t watching, there are plenty of opportunities to get out of here. It may take a long time, but you will be able to break through the fish tank and get out.

“Merlin. I will kill Raon right before your eyes.”

Although there was very little mana in the fish tank, it did not mean that it could not be collected at all.

I tried to force myself to gather mana, but the back of my neck tingled and goosebumps appeared as if someone was watching me.

‘what?’

I thought it was strange and raised my head.

Goooooh.

The sky dyed black. The eyeball with the red cross on it twitched. It’s Merlin. She didn’t leave, but was watching the fish tank from outside.

“ah….”

His eyes were filled with murderous intent, and his heart tightened as if it would explode.

“Who are you going to kill?”

Under the eyeball. Red lips moved and an eerie voice came out.

“Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? Who are you going to kill? So are you going to kill?

I covered my ears as the voice felt like it was cutting into my ears, but her voice did not cut off.

“Aaaahhh! Stop!”

Merlin’s voice stopped only after the ghost screamed as if it would tear its throat, but that was not the end, but the beginning.

“I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching. I will be watching.”

So that no harm comes to him.

For life.
