Chapter 366
Raon packed his belongings from the dormitory and went out to the entrance of Weathers Village. The iron gates and walls that had collapsed were neatly repaired under Henderson’s command.
‘I can go back now.’
There were no enemies or monsters approaching the village, and people found some stability, and Henderson remained, so he was able to leave without any hesitation.
Drake disappears and monsters may appear, but that will be a while later, so I was thinking of going back and asking the Sepia Chamber to send unmanned soldiers.
-… I did.
As I was waiting for Dorian in front of the iron gate, I heard Lars’ voice that seemed to go out of the basement.
-Sa, I should have decided that it was a specialty product, not raspberry pie and chestnut stew. I should have… .
‘How long are you going to do that?’
Lars has been repeating those words like a parrot from the time he received raspberry macarons and chestnut soup from Lucy, the village chief’s granddaughter.
I felt like I was out of my mind from being spooked.
-I should have decided that it was a specialty product, not raspberry pie and stewed chestnuts… .
‘hey… .’
-I guess it’s a new product in this case, so it’s clear that the world hates the original king… great!
The boy burst into tears as he said he lost the bet he thought he would win because of the force of the world.
‘It’s a little pitiful.’
I felt a little pity that the guy singing food songs as if breathing was doing that.
‘Macarons are a little bit hard to give… .’
I’ll have to buy some mint chocolate when I get home.
I couldn’t eat the macarons because I promised Denning Rose that I would take the local specialties back.
I decided to go back to the Sepia Chamber and buy what Lars wanted to eat.
“Lord!”
Dorian popped out of the dormitory while patting Lars’s smirking head.
“It’s all ready.”
Dorian grinned, rubbing his stomach pockets.
I still couldn’t believe that a wagon and a 35m tall drake were in that little pocket.
“Then let’s go.”
Raon smiled and gestured towards the door.
“Are you leaving without even saying hello?”
Dorian looked around the village and tilted his head.
“What else are you trying to concede?”
“No, I’m not trying to be condescending, just greetings… .”
“You have received enough thanks. It is better to go quietly without burdening the sick.”
“yes… .”
Dorian’s reply lengthened as if he didn’t like it very much.
When Raon patted Dorian on the shoulder and tried to jump over the wall, a number of signs moved behind him.
“Benefactor!”
“I knew it!”
“You are just going.”
Villagers with bandages around their bodies rushed out and ran to Raon and Dorian.
“You really come like the wind and go away like the wind. Thank you. Other than that, I have nothing to say.”
The mayor closed his mouth and bowed his head.
“Thank you!”
The villagers also bowed their heads following the greeting of the village chief. He seemed to know what they thought of him just by listening to his thick, trembling voice.
Raon smiled as he greeted the villagers.
“I hope you are doing well.”
“Uh… .”
“Sin… .”
I just said something I didn’t want to tremble in humility, but the villagers bit their lips as if they were more moved by the words.
“At times like this, it’s really neat and normal, but why do you sometimes lose your mind… Ouch!”
Dorian’s voice was heard from behind. When I glanced at him, he shrugged his shoulders and stepped back.
“Benefactor!”
He looked up at the child’s voice. Lucy, the granddaughter of the village chief, who had given her raspberry macarons earlier, was running with two baskets.
“Hey, take this.”
A sweet and refreshing scent emanated from the basket.
“It’s raspberry pie.”
“pie? Why this?”
“When I gave you macarons, they seemed to like it, so I prepared it.”
Lucy bowed her head in shame.
‘I liked it… .’
He covered his mouth and laughed at Lars, but he seemed to think he liked it.
– Aaah!
Lars slammed his face into the basket and screamed.
-Why are you giving me this now? I gave you earlier! That is definitely an apostle of God! You’re making fun of the main king!
The guy twisted his plump cotton candy body saying that he should destroy the messenger of God.
“thank you.”
Raon kicked Lars who struggled and received a basket of raspberry pie.
“no. No, please enjoy it.”
Lucy smiled and shook her head.
“I will hear from you later.”
Raon looked at the eyes of the villagers one by one, full of gratitude, and turned his back.
“Goodbye! I will definitely come back!”
After a lively greeting, Dorian followed behind.
“Are you really coming back?”
“okay.”
Raon smiled and nodded to Dorian.
– Whoa! I should have decided it was a specialty, not raspberry pie and chestnut stew… .
‘It’s a start again.’
Even after leaving the village, Lars’s muttering continued. Looking at the condition, it looked like it was going to go away for a few days.
“Sir.”
As I was about to get out of town and ride my horse, Dorian approached me.
“Because there are two pies. How about eating one while it’s hot?”
-Sa, raspberry pie and chestnut stew, not a specialty.
As soon as Dorian said he wanted to eat the pie, Lars’ scream stopped. His gaze, which had been staring blankly at the sky, slowly returned to this direction.
‘no way… .’
It’s this raspberry pie that made it that way. Are you hungry?
He smiled and opened a basket. He gave Dorian a raspberry pie cut into five pieces and picked up the second piece.
-gulp!
The sound of saliva passing from Lars’ throat reverberated in his ears like thunder.
‘Really this Demon King… .’
Raon shook his head and put the raspberry pie in his mouth.
The warm yet crunchy crust delights the palate, and the sweetness of the juicy raspberry wraps around the entire tongue and doesn’t let go. Finally, the aroma of roasted almonds neatly decorated the end.
A smile comes out of nowhere The taste was enough to understand why it was rumored to be a special product from far away.
-Hey… .
I turned to Lars at the sound of laughter filled with excitement.
Focus returned to her dazed eyes, and the corners of her mouth were rising high in the sky without realizing it.
– It’s delicious.
It was ridiculous to see him smirking while holding his chubby cheeks.
‘What is he really?’
Are you the Demon King of Wrath?

Limer stood in front of the annex building with a trembling footstep as if it had been timid.
smart.
When I knocked on the door, the maid Helen opened the door and came out.
“Lord of the Gwangpungdan?”
“hello.”
Limer smiled and waved her hand.
“It’s been a while. Why did you come to the annex?”
“Are you Sylvia?”
“Oh, wait a minute.”
Helen bowed her head and walked down the back hallway.
“It’s easy to come in.”
Limer looked around the annex and smiled.
‘It’s strange that that cold guy came out of such a friendly place.’
Even just entering the annex, you can feel that the atmosphere here is the warmest in Sieghard.
It was hard to believe that a monster kid like Raon was born in such a warm place.
“uh? Prosecutor Rimer!”
“It’s an elf man!”
Julius and Yooa, passing by the hallway, saw Limer and stopped.
We met every time we went to play with Loen after training, so we were pretty close with the two.
“Why are you here?”
The two children looked up at Limer and tilted their heads.
“that is… .”
“Limer-sama.”
As Limer was about to answer, Sylvia walked out from the end of the hallway.
“Are you here for Raon’s work?”
“no. Not that.”
Limer shook her head lightly.
“okay.”
Sylvia bowed her head with ambiguous eyes, whether it was luck or disappointment.
“You are surprisingly calm.”
Limer looked into Sylvia’s sunken eyes and smiled faintly.
“I thought you’d be worried and trembling.”
“I’m worried. It’s a kid who was kidnapped a while ago, so I can’t be worried.”
Sylvia let out a low sigh.
“However, I can’t wear it in my arms forever, and worrying about it doesn’t change anything. All I can do is trust Raon so he can feel safe.”
She closed her eyes slightly and then opened it. Red eyes that looked like they were molded from rubies lit up with a noble light.
Limer met those eyes and smiled.
‘It’s different.’
When Raon was a trainee, he cried and prayed that he would take care of him.
Just as Raon grew taller, Sylvia’s heart seemed to have grown as well.
‘It’s the same when you look at it this way.’
It looks fragile, but those eyes resemble those of Glenn and Raon. No matter what anyone said, it was a family that couldn’t be helped.
“Do not worry too much.”
Rimer looked at Sylvia and smiled.
“Because I’m not the kind of guy you’re going to go and get hit with. I heard you beat Garona and Cadiz. We are also prepared for kidnapping, so you can rest assured.”
“You say that makes me a little reassured.”
Sylvia smiled softly and nodded her head.
“If it’s not for Raon, why did you come to the annex?”
“Ah, because of them.”
Limer lowered her finger and pointed to the blankly standing infant and Julius.
“I’m going to scout these guys as a gangster.”
“scout?”
“Gwangpungdan?”
The infant tilted his head, and Julius turned on the lights at the sound of the windmill.
“okay. Are you going to join the gang with Raon who saved you? how is it? good?”
“Wow! Let’s go!”
“Please let me in!”
The infant raised his hand, and Julius grabbed Limer’s sleeve and waved it.
“Heh heh! okay. okay. Let’s start with our stamp.”
Limer held Yua and Julius’s hands tightly with an expression that would shout that they were a scammer by anyone.
“Come on, wait a minute!”
Sylvia hurriedly intervened and separated Limer and the children.
‘Your eyes were so weird.’
He unwittingly blocked the children with a face that would have been made by a gambler.
“Oh, what are you going to do with the children?”
“I just want to get some help.”
Limer shrugged as she looked at Yua and Julius.
“Soon the inspiration of the rags will bring the children.”
“Are you a saint?”
“Yes. The children who come with us are the ones who have suffered serious injuries, so I wanted Yooa and Julius to help.”
He looked at Julius and the infant with somewhat bitter eyes.
“Okay, but why tell YooA and Julius the story of the gang… .”
“Ah, that’s true too.”
Limer patted Yua and Julius’s hair and smiled.
“As soon as Raon returns, the gang will be promoted to the gang.”

Dude!
From the underground cavity of the Robert family, who was raising the shadows, a terrifying roar as if the continents were splitting came out.
Derus Robert. It was the sound of his feet pounding his face red. I just pressed my foot to the ground, and there was a huge, endless hole in the floor.
“Whew… .”
Even then, as if his anger could not be quenched, Derus clenched his fists until he bled. Red blood dripped from the back of his hand and his wrist, dripping down the dark hole.
“Lord.”
As Derus tried to stomp again, Rezel came out of the darkness and knelt down.
“Did you know?”
“Yes.”
Rezel nodded and looked up. A red air stream filled with murderous intent fluttered in the eyes of Derus.
‘I’m going to die just by looking at you.’
In a recent state of severe damage, not only Loktan and German, but also all the informants sent to gather information disappeared, so it was not unusual for Derus to be angry.

No, it’s because it’s Derus, so if it were someone else, it would have exploded already.
“It is said that there were monsters from the Black Tower, not Raon.”
“Black Tower?”
“Yes. It looks like they were aiming for Drake. It is said that the body and traces of the Black Beast have been identified.”
“her… .”
Derus smirked and lowered his gaze.
“So, you mean that you didn’t catch Raon Sieghart and went to war with the Black Tower?”
“It seems so.”
Rezel licked her lips and nodded. I’ve been bringing Derus along, but it’s been a long time since I’ve had this kind of life.
“What about Raon Sieghard?”
“It is said that they arrived late and cleaned up the exhausted black sorghum and loctan. They saved people and even got Drake’s body… .”
“Uhhh… .”
Derus took a deep breath as he looked up at the blackened ceiling.
“Ah ha ha ha ha ha!”
He wiped his forehead with his blood-drenched hand, bursting into laughter.
“I don’t know if I’m lucky or if I’m playing around with the world. I still don’t have a proper judgment on him.”
Derus Robert lowered his head. His eyes, which had been filled with anger and murder, became as cold as ice.
“Lord?”
“Let’s not bump into Raon Sieghard for a while. Instead, gather information. Use the North Line to collect all the information from when he was born until now.”
“All right.”
Rezel swallowed dry saliva and nodded.
“Don’t be vigilant any more.”
Derus smiled faintly, wiping the blood flowing from the wound on the back of his hand down the dark hole.
“Let me figure out everything about you and tell you the end.”

Raon headed to Lokan’s Black Market first before returning to Sepia. Following the road as first guided, Denning Rose was waiting in a small room.
“You suffered. and… .”
Denning Rose got up from her seat and bowed her back. It was an attitude that was polite, yet possessed of self-esteem.
“Thank you for avenging Ferenz.”
It was the first time I heard the name, but I thought I knew who he was talking about. It was clear that the agent who had endured to the end even in the state of being afflicted by dark mana and delivered information about the Black Tower.
“He will be able to go in peace now.”
Deep sorrow is felt in the quietly spoken words. An agent called Ferentz seemed to be the one Denning Rose loved.
“I only met him once, but he was a respectable person.”
Raon closed his eyes and opened his mouth. It’s not a pretentious sound. It was because he doubted whether he would be able to survive with the carbon technique in the state of being afflicted by dark mana.
“It happened because of us, so I’m sorry.”
“Sorry, I’m sorry.”
Raon and Dorian bowed their heads.
“no. Given the commission, he just did what he had to do. In the end, people were also saved, so they must be satisfied.”
Denning Rose laughed softly, telling him not to say that. Peace that comes in an instant. He looked like the successor of black marketism.
“Sit down for now.”
I sat down on the chair opposite her.
“We plan to protect Weathers Village for a while. Drake, who reigned like a king in the mountains, has disappeared, so there is a possibility that monsters will dig in the gap.”
“okay.”
Denning Rose seems to have had the same thoughts as himself.
‘Then I feel more secure.’
The black market seemed to put people first, like a group formed by the lower classes who were crushed at the bottom of society.
Of course, in return you’ll get rights to raspberries and chestnuts in Weathers Village, but that’s going to benefit both parties.
“Dorian.”
Raon called Dorian and nodded.
“yes.”
Dorian understood what he was saying, put his hands in his stomach pockets, took out a basket and a box, and placed them on the table.
“This… .”
“It is a promise. and… .”
Raon smiled softly and opened the lid of the basket and box. The raspberry macaroons and raspberry pie from Weathers Village appeared.
“These things were preserved thanks to the help of the branch manager and agents.”
“is that so.”
Denning Rose smiled and put a slice of pie in her mouth. Her eyes widened like the moon. He looked like he didn’t expect it to be so delicious.
“No, it’s delicious. The crust is still crispy, and the sweet flesh overflows!”
“Try macarons, too. They said it is a new product that has not been released yet.”
“body… .”
Denning Rose’s eyes twinkled as she looked at the macarons as if the pie was satisfactory. She quickly took her hand and bit the macaron as well.
“Hey, this is also delicious. No, honestly, this is my preference. The macarons that come out these days are too sweet, but these macarons are not too sweet, but they are so fresh because the fresh juice and soft macarons like bread harmonize. Much more than anything made by patissiers in big cities like Cameloon or Lokan… Ouch!”
Denning Rose blushed when she saw Raon and Dorian who had their mouths open blankly.
“You seem to like dessert.”
Raon smiled as she saw the macarons trembling in Denning Rose’s hand.
‘There are no gaps.’
I thought he was an iron-blooded person because he was so straight, but seeing how he blushed and expressed the taste of the dessert, he looked his age now.
– Even the main king likes it. eat one… .
‘You’re a little lost.’
He gently pushed the sticking Lars to eat the macarons.
“Joe, I like you a little.”
Denning Rose answered with her head bowed. Her earlobes were burning red.
“Se, the other successors of Sepia are also coming back with their own items!”
It seemed obvious that he was trying to change the subject, but Raon smiled and moved on.
“Do you know what it is?”
“yes. Sure.”
Denning Rose nodded and set the half macaron aside. Seeing his eyes tremble, he seemed to be barely holding back what he wanted to eat.
– I’m not left. Even the king… .
Lass whining next to him and Denning Rose, who couldn’t take his eyes off the dessert, seemed to go well together.
“The third, Palen Sepia, got the finest claws, teeth and horns, and the second, Dialun Sepia, is bringing back a whole stuffed Drake. And the first, Jesser Sepia… .”
Denning Rose’s gaze turned to Dorian. Swallowing dry saliva, she continued.
“Drake. He said he was also in the process of catching a special drake and bringing him back.”
“A special drake? Like we caught it?”
“yes. It’s called a wind drake. I haven’t heard exactly about the size of the drakes of the Jamari Mountains, but they’re so huge that they might be able to beat them… .”
“How much?”
“I heard it is over 25m. That’s not very common.”
Hearing her words, Raon and Dorian looked at each other and raised the corners of their mouths.
“Is it 25m?”
“25 m. .”
barely?
