Grave Keeper of the Fallen Kingdom - Chapter 201



Scarlet Arjen stepped back and Marcia came up to take her place.

As he watched Scarlett’s victory, he chose an opponent with a serious expression and began sparring.

thud!!

A knight of the swashbuckler style who fell to the bottom of the sparring hall.

“Marcia. “I passed the third test.”

She, whose entire body was a complete mess compared to Scarlett, took a deep breath and nodded.

“The two candidates for admission should receive the sword’s imprint.”

The sword’s engraving was engraved by entrusting the couple’s beloved sword to the family’s blacksmith.

Marcia hands over the sword with a face filled with emotion.

Scarlett’s face showed a hint of dissatisfaction at not being able to use her sword even for a moment, but no one said anything about it.

“You two, decide on a school.”

Scarlett had already almost openly declared that she would join Raishinryu, and only Marcia had not expressed her opinion yet.

“I’m going to Raishinryu.”

Scarlett spoke first.

“So be it.”

When Leonora gave permission, she grinned and hopped up behind Ren.

“Since you are the leader, you will tell me the next technique, right?”

“What did you entrust to me?”

“Have you forgotten that I protected you last time?”

“… … “I wanted to teach you.”

It’s good that Scarlett joined Raijinryu, but Ren sighed because he had a feeling that he would become more tired.

“I am… … .”

Then Marcia opened her mouth. Accordingly, Ren and Scarlett’s gaze also turns.

“I will go to Raishinryu.”

I did it just in case, but still.

Ren exclaimed in joy, Scarlett laughed as if it were a fun toy, and the expressions of the other knights of the school hardened.

It was only natural that all the knights who became inductees at this sword initiation ceremony ended up going to Raishinryu.

And some people who suddenly realized that fact looked at Ren and questioned his intentions.

‘no way… … , Was this something that had been planned long before the sword’s initiation ceremony?’

Ulrich conducted a very thorough investigation on Ren while he was asleep.

What Ren has done in Brilliant over the past two years.

And in most of the major incidents, Ren was involved.

It was as if he had planned to appear only in places where incidents would occur.

Otherwise, it would be the same as causing the incident by oneself, but looking at the events that occurred, that was actually impossible.

‘From what I’ve learned so far, Ren Argen is a very scheming person.’

When he was young, he showed his incompetence and was despised by his family for several years, so he naturally left the family and headed to Brilliant.

And one day, he appeared at the family in a fully awakened state, established Raishinryu at once, and took over as the family’s successor.

It’s hard to believe, but what if it was planned from such a young age?

What if he has the eyes to read the flow of the times, as if he knows the future inside out?

‘… … In the first place, even Scarlett and Marcia were chess pieces prepared in advance. ‘Now I’m sure.’

I got goosebumps looking at Ren Argen’s calm appearance without blinking even though Marcia was joining Raijinryu.

He was a scary person. In addition to amazing sword skills, he also has an extraordinary brain.

If they have Ren Argen as their enemy, will Chumuryu be able to survive?

As he intended, shallow ripples were spreading like waves among the knights of the family.

Although there were only two people, all of the candidates entered Raishinryu.

Even Scarlett, who is a direct descendant. The situation was enough to tempt the knights of the family.

‘… … Now that I think about it, the head of Soobiryu has already been blown off.’

Where will it be next? Jungmu type? Bihoryu? If not, is it the Senate?

“I will conclude the sword’s induction ceremony.”

Fletcher stands up, announces the end of the induction ceremony, and leaves.

The eyes of countless people were directed towards where Raijinryu was.

And they all guessed it.

The largest number of candidates in history will participate in the next sword initiation ceremony.

“wren!”

Lian caught Ren leaving the entrance hall.

“You saw it too, right?”

Ren realized what he was talking about and nodded.

“Those who have already qualified as inductees can participate in the Sword Initiation Ceremony again. “I put my qualifications as an inductee on the line.”

“I know.”

“More people than expected will participate in the induction ceremony.”

Ren also thought the same thing when he felt the gaze of the knights from earlier.

More people than expected were showing interest in Raishinryu.

“However, even if they are wavering now, most will give up on that idea once other forces crack down on it soon.”

“So, are you saying we should continue to create opportunities to maintain that thought?”

“okay. You are good at communicating well. “Arhan, that bastard had to explain it three or four times for it to get into his ears.”

As Rian said, there is a need to maintain more interest in Raishinryu.

It would be nice if it could be maintained until a year later, but in reality, that is difficult. However, if this interest is maintained even for half a year, there will be clear results at the next sword initiation ceremony.

“So, I’m thinking of teaching Raishinryu techniques to my brother and a few others right away.”

“oh… … ! “That’s enough!”

A blush appeared on Lian’s face.

Initiates have already decided on a school, so they cannot learn the swordsmanship of other schools, but non-initiates can learn the swordsmanship of many schools.

Nevertheless, participating in the initiation ceremony and joining the school is because doing so will teach you the true sword skills of each school.

“Brother, shouldn’t you participate in the induction ceremony next year?”

“That’s right.”

“Let me help you.”

“thanks.”

Since he also had Arjen’s blood, he was not without a talent for the sword.

However, there are so many monsters in the family and there are many excellent swordsmen in Argen itself, so they are just buried.

‘If Ren helps me, it’s worth climbing up.’

“But I can’t stay in the family forever.”

“I know that. So as an alternative-.”

“So I thought about who to put at the head.”

“… … what? At the head? who?”

Ren spread his energy around.

They came to the backyard of the mansion, but since it was still broad daylight, there were people walking around.

So I took a pause and spoke now that no one was around.

“I’m thinking about Brother Eden.”

“… … what? “I heard right now, right?”

“yes.”

Lian clutched her forehead with a bewildered expression.

I made a Raijinryu and I’m going to give it to Eden.

“It’s already been a few days since you woke up? “Have you come to your senses yet?”

“I’m fine.”

“But what nonsense are you talking about?”

“I’m not saying I’m going to put Eden in the position of leader right now. If I am appointed to Sojiazhu. “I plan to call him then.”

Rian calmed down his excitement and calmly calculated the gains and losses that would result from Eden becoming the leader of the Raijinryu.

“It was revealed because of you. Brother Eden uses Raijin style swordsmanship. It would be a good thing if Brother Eden came to Raijinryu. That’s a lot of power. that’s right. however… … “Only if that person is on our side.”

Lian did not want to introduce a time bomb called Eden into Raishinryu, no matter how much Ren had a clear justification for becoming Sogaju.

If possible, I hoped that Ren would be purged the moment he ascended to Sogaju.

‘Brother Eden is not a person who will give up just because Ren has become the head of the small family.’

Ren doesn’t know, but he saw it.

As a child, before Eden acquired Raijin Ryu’s inheritance.

The look in his eyes had changed since he almost lost the sparring match with Blair.

In his eyes filled with anger and inferiority complex, Lian clearly saw deep murder.

If only Blair hadn’t shown extreme laziness afterward and was greatly broken by the matriarch.

If only her standing hadn’t plummeted because of that.

‘I’m sure Brother Eden killed Sister Blair.’

Just because he has a talent that threatens him.

Even though I knew that she had no interest in being the head of the family.

After Blair, similar talent was shown in Arhan, but the gap with Eden had already widened significantly.

Moreover, Arhaan and Blair were no longer competitors to Eden, who was on a roll after gaining the brain power.

That’s why it survived. At least that’s what I thought of Lian.

“wren. “If you find it difficult to lead Raijinryu, I will somehow raise your level and-”

“no. “Brother Eden should be in charge of Raishinryu.”

Seeing Ren’s firm attitude despite saying this, Lian changed his mind.

Ren is not a thoughtless guy like Arhaan or his other brothers.

Most of the things he does are already planned out in his head.

He was probably thinking about this too.

I had to listen to it first. That way, you can either refute or persuade.

“… … The reason is?”

“There is no one better than Brother Eden to raise the level of Thunder God Ryu to the highest level.”

“You are there.”

“I have to supervise the entire Four Great Schools.”

“Most of the family heads of the past decided on one school. So does my father. But you’re going to break that rule?”

“My father is only from the middle class, but he actually uses different powers.”

“Raijinryu must be the foundation that supports you. But if Brother Eden takes over as head, that support base may be shaken.”

Ren nodded at Lian’s words.

It was a somewhat expected reaction from the beginning.

It was just an attempt to shock me in advance. If you suddenly throw this away later, there will be a huge backlash.

“There is still a lot of time left, so I will think about it slowly.”

“okay. “Think about it carefully.”

Ren broke up with Lian and headed back to the Tomb of the Sword.

‘Rainshinryu… , If you really want to fully master that power, you need the help of the second generation head of the family.’

Naturally, Havenberg does not know the swordsmanship of the Four Great Schools.

Therefore, Ren also only heard of Raishinryu, but never learned it properly.

The Raishin style swordsmanship he had used so far was simply a new creation based on Havenberg’s swordsmanship.

‘If you want to teach systematically, you need to know me first.’

At least Raishinryu 1 sword must be clearly taught and taught.

“Patriarch Bandrik.”

-You’re here.

Vandrik Arzen, the second head of the Argen family and the founder of the Four Great Schools.

Vandrik recognized the potential of Ren, who had mastered the Havenberg swordsmanship, and looked very favorably on him for reviving Raishinryu.

“I came here because I wanted to learn Raijin style swordsmanship.”

– good night. I’ll tell you. What is Raishinryu? And what potential that swordsmanship has.

[Code – Vandrik Arzen]

“Take a good look.”

Vandrik, who entered Ren’s body, raised his Chohon to the sky.

“Arjen swordsmanship is a swordsmanship that borrows the power of nature. In particular, Raishin style’s swordsmanship is more powerful and lethal than any other school.”

It’s shaky… … . Pajik!

The brain energy gathered in the sword of the first soul is extremely compressed into the sword body, emitting a blue electric light.

“Look carefully. The first sword is a technique that inflicts fatal injury or instant death on the opponent in the blink of an eye.”

As the arm is pulled back, the condensed brain energy explodes, accelerating the thrust.

Arzen Swordsman Raijinryu

– 1st sword

– A single lightning strike

Accompanied by a chilling bursting sound, a cold flash of light illuminated the sky and went in a straight line.

A thunderbolt that disappeared between the clouds in the blink of an eye.

However, minute traces of brain energy and cracked clouds remain in the air.

Because it was fired into the empty air, the exact power of it could not be known, but since it was a technique that Vandrik performed with his body, he could see how absurd it was.

– How many times did you accelerate your brain energy in that short moment?

“Nine times in total. This is the limit for this body. In theory, this is possible up to 10 times.”

A method of instantly condensing and colliding with brain energy particles to maximize explosive power and speed.

In theory, anyone can do it, but actually applying it is a completely different matter.

Vandrik has now succeeded nine times without any hesitation.

– Show me one more time.

“Sure.”

Vandrik sent another flash of light into the sky.

– uh… … , one more time.

“Sure.”

Puzzle!!

– Can you do it one last time?

“… … good night.”

Five paths have already been created in the sky.

Only then did Ren nod his head and unravel the decree.

– Can you do it?

“I will try.”

Nine accelerations performed by Vandrik with this body.

‘It was a lightning strike… … .’

While he fired five lightning strikes, Ren concentrated thoroughly on feeling and learning the sensation.

Ren believed in his gift of intuition.

Puzzle!

It gathers the brain energy wrapped around the sword body into several dots and explodes them all at once.

A tingling sensation of thunder running through your fingertips.

Kwagwagwagwagwagwagwang!!

Eight explosions, which were inaudible in reality, rang through my ears and scattered white flashes of light.

“Whoa… … .”

– I guess I wasn’t mistaken.

Vandrik seemed satisfied, but perhaps it was because he was used to Havenberg’s training methods.

Ren sighed in frustration.

“Let’s take a break and try again.”
