The Reincarnated Assassin is a Genius Swordsman

Chapter 383

Adis Sephias jaw dropped as he watched the Light Wind squad push the Warring Steel division into a corner.

Th-the tide has been reversed completely

He thought the fight was already over when the Light Wind squad leader dropped out after defeating only one of the Warring Steel vice division leaders.

Since both camps were confused, the Warring Steel division obviously had the upper hand because they were stronger overall.

However, the Light Wind squad was the first to regain their composure and managed to overcome the disadvantage.

While the Warring Steel division locked themselves up to figure out the situation, the Light Wind squad quickly devised a plan before attacking and managed to break the Warring Steel divisions balance.

Hed been watching, but he still couldnt believe that such a bold strategy had just happened.

And it was all thanks to

Adis swallowed nervously and looked at Raon, who was standing in front of the Warring Steel division leader.

That man.

The one who brought the Light Wind squad to their feet in their confused state, the one who devised the plan to defeat the Warring Steel division, and the one whod been keeping their leaderTrevinin check was Raon alone.

If it werent for him, the Warring Steel division wouldve already won the battle.

HoweverI still have a bad feeling about this.

Hed heard that Trevin, the Warring Steel division leader was at the highest level Master. Even if Raon had become stronger, there still mustve been a huge difference between them in terms of might and experience, and he couldnt stop worrying about it.

Adis sighed and looked at Glenn, who was standing next to him.

He was clenching his fist while glaring at the spectators instead of the battlefield. Red sparks flashed from his fingers, expressing his anger.

He-head of house, can the Light Wind vice squad leader win against the Warring Steel division leader?

Glenns eyes were finally directed at the battlefield after hearing that question.

Since the Warring Steel division leader is a highest-level Master, shouldnt it be impossible for the Light Wind vice squad leader to win against him as long as he stops panicking?

That wouldve been the case if he were an intermediate Master.

Glenn slowly nodded while looking at Raon. His pressure turned gentle, and the sparking lightning subsided from his fist.

That boy has already reached the advanced Master level.

Ad-advanced Master?

Adiss eyes widened.

Hes already in the advanced realm despite his age. He might really become the strongest in the continent at this rate, butthats a matter for the future.

Even though hed reached the advanced realm, his opponent was a highest-level Master and had more experience than him.

Since Trevin was better in every aspect, Raons victory looked unlikely.

But the Warring Steel division leader is at the highest level of Master.

Indeed. Its normally impossible to overcome the drastic change between realms. However

Glenn continued while looking at Raon warmly.

That boy has the power to overcome that drastic change. Its a quality rarer than any talent in the world.

Ah

Just as Adis was attracted to how Raon could change people, Glenn looked like he was in love with Raons unyielding spirit.

Keep watching.

A gentle smile appeared on Glenns cold face.

That boy will splendidly betray the presidents expectations.

* * *

Raon briefly clicked his tongue while looking at the Warring Steel division leader, Trevin Zieghart.

Did the extreme panic make him regain his composure?

Trevins pupils had been trembling before, but they started radiating a deadly light instead. He looked like he had managed to forcefully pull himself together despite the way he was losing his mind from the endless news of the Warring Steels eliminations.

Haa

Trevin sighed and narrowed his eyes. He had a look of deep admiration on his face while looking at Raon.

Amazing. I was aware that you possessed excellent might and strategy, but I didnt know about your boldness. Ive been thoroughly defeated in terms of strategy and group battle.

He honestly admitted his defeat, unlike the other members of the direct lines.

However, Im still a division leader of Zieghart. I cannot remain defeated when my subordinates are falling because of me.

Trevin raised his sword, and his energy soared endlessly like a sharp spearhead. He almost looked like he had turned into a sword himself.

Ill defeat you with my sword and bring victory to those who followed this foolish leader.

Its a nice plan, but I have no intention of losing.

Raon smiled coldly and moved the Flame Spirits pieces from all around the battlefield.

Whap!

When the huge firestorm was about to destroy the battlefield itself, Trevin thrust his sword.

The tip of his sword multiplied into hundreds and pierced through all the flame petals of fire. It was the Steel Penetrations Sword.

Bang! Bang!

As the astral energies bared their fangs at each other, magnificent light burst from the space.

As the white light subsided, Trevins eyes were sparkling coldly. He seemed to have regained his usual composure.

Hes destroyed every single Flame Spirit. He is indeed powerful, but He seemed to know my technique.

Speed wasnt everything in Trevins swordsmanship, since his movement felt like he was reading the Flame Spirits trajectory.

Raons eyes turned serious as he fixed his grip on Heavenly Drive.

Lets test it out.

He kicked the ground to advance and unleashed the Revolving Sky. The sphere of fire concentrated around the tip of his sword spread a powerful energy with its rotation.

Cring!

Trevin swiftly dashed forward. He thrust his sword while lowering his posture, and the white light surging from his sword severed the center of the Revolving Sky.

Whaam!

The Revolving Skys fire exploded before it was completed and scattered like a fountain to cover Raons vision.

Did he erase the Revolving Sky before it could gain momentum?

Raon didnt panic, engulfing Heavenly Drive with Glaciers energy as it was bounced back from the previous clash.

He found Trevins presence and slashed the fire covering his vision diagonally.

Cring!

The moment the frozen strike fell alongside Heavenly Drives trajectory toward Trevins collarbone, his eyes sparked with white.

Clang!

Trevin unleashed the Steel Penetration Swords principles one after the other to deflect Raons blade and frozen blade at the same time.

Kuh!

Raon furrowed his brow while putting force into his trembling arm.

So he reallyknows my techniques.

He wasnt simply aware of the fact that the Frost Pond consisted of two strikes. He even knew where he was about to attack, and how fast the second strike followed up.

Strength wasnt all Trevin had. He seemed to have analyzed everything about Raon Ziegharts swordsmanship.

Have you studied me?

Indeed.

Trevin nodded calmly.

Being famous isnt entirely advantageous for a swordsman, because your technique, movements, and aura will be analyzed by the enemy.

He simply nodded with his chin and raised his sword.

Raon Zieghart. Ill be fighting while considering you an equal opponent.

Should I be honored?

Raons eyes looked rather entertained.

Ill be hoping that you wont change your mind.

* * *

* * *

Trevin narrowed his eyes while looking at Raons charge.

His footwork allows him to leap through space.

Raons footwork was a mysterious one that allowed him to disappear and reappear like Blink.

However, the distance was limited and he couldnt use it consecutively because it was still incomplete, which was bound to reveal his movements at some point.

Behind me!

He managed to notice Raons approach from behind thanks to the aura perception that hed previously spread around. He could feel ferocity from Raons strike.

He must be using the Fangs of Insanity.

The ferocious strike was from the intuition sword called Fangs of Insanity, which was capable of forcing an opening into the opponent.

Its an amazing technique, butits not unstoppable.

Intuition swords consisted of piercing into the opponents openings. He just needed to purposefully create multiple openings to bait the trajectory.

Trevin unleashed the Steel Penetration Swords Steel Whip Slash.

Claang!

The twisting sound of steel resounded throughout the place from the clash between the swords.

Tsk.

Raon briefly clicked his tongue and slashed downwards. He wasnt using the Fangs of Insanity. It consisted of an extreme sharpness that was capable of severing the weapon alongside the opponent by creating a line of fire in front of his sword.

I also know this one.

Trevin gritted his back teeth and unleashed the Golden Upper Slash. The strike surrounded by the white light parried Raons sword right before it was completed.

Clang!

Raon was pushed back along with his sword and kicked to the ground to charge once again. He unsheathed his sword, which had been returned to the scabbard at some point.

The blade of sound!

On top of blocking his hearing, Trevin blocked all of his senses throughout his body and unleashed the Steel Flower of War.

Clang!

The silver blade stopped Raons sword draw and the sound ceased to create chaos.

Thud!

Raon couldnt withstand the colossal power of the Steel Flower of War and ended up leaving deep footsteps on the ground as he stepped back.

Trevin straightened his back and smiled.

It worked.

Precision, speed, and penetration were the Steel Penetration Swords strong points.

Since it could reach faster despite being activated slower than the opponents technique, Trevin was confident in dealing with an opponent that he already had information on.

As I said before, I dont underestimate you.

Even though he was winning, Trevin remained unexcited. He couldnt be careless, as Raon was a savage beast capable of reversing the situation.

Ill defeat you to the best of my abilities.

Raon rushed in without any response and unleashed the techniques that created his legend in the continent.

The fire soared to reach the sky and the coldness froze up the entire battlefield, but Trevin didnt step back.

Whaam!

He consecutively unleashed the Steel Penetration Swords special techniques to destroy Raons special techniques one after the other.

Ugh

Blood was flowing from Raons mouth as he stepped back. He seemed to have gotten an internal injury from the Steel Penetration Swords high aura penetration.

Haa!

Trevin gasped while grasping his trembling wrist.

Amazing

Hed endlessly studied Raons swordsmanship and he was at a higher realm than him, it was still difficult to counter his techniques. He could ascertain that the monster called Raon was bound to reach even higher after the fight.

But Ill be the winner this time.

It was getting more and more advantageous for him thanks to his higher realm and his study on Raon.

The fight was pretty much decided at that point.

But

Trevin examined Raon while biting his lip.

Why does he look like hes having fun?

Even though Trevin was blocking all of Raons techniques, his eyes were not defeated. It was actually the opposite, as his pressure felt like it was getting more and more intense.

So you have really studied me, Sir.

Raons voice was jumping in joy. The usage of the honorific felt as natural as flowing water.

Why are you suddenly adding an honorific?

Because you deserve one.

What?

Division leader, I thought at first that you were the same as the idiots who are counting on their blood and position, but I realized it wasnt the case from this fight.

Raon smiled faintly. Trevin couldnt understand why he was smiling despite losing in all aspects.

You didnt simply investigate my martial arts but also predicted that my aura would increase.

Indeed. Since you have an unpredictable rate of growth, I took into consideration that your auras quality and quantity might increase.

Trevin nodded. Raon had always become stronger than before whenever he returned from a mission in the past.

Based on that fact, Trevin assumed that Raons might would have reached advanced Master and prepared himself.

I can only describe your preparation as rigorous. However, I believe you considered my swordsmanship from the Six Kings Tournament, am I right?

Indeed.

Then you should be careful now, Sir. Because starting from now

Raon fixed the grip on his sword while smiling in excitement.

He didnt look like there was any special change in him, but a chill ran down Trevins spine.

Ill be a bit different.

Raon dashed at the same time and thrust with the Fangs of Insanity. He was faster than before, probably because he was going all out with his aura.

Cring!

Trevin pierced the Steel Penetration Sword into the ferocious strike bending towards him.

Claang!

Even though he reacted with the same timing as in the previous clash, the Steel Penetration Swords principles didnt work. He was bounced back instead.

Whats going on?

He was using more aura, but it couldnt possibly make such a huge difference.

However, he had no time to think about it because Raons strikes were still coming.

Haap!

Trevin smashed the Steel Penetration Swords Hundred Steels Slash into Raons sharpened attack.

Claang!

A powerful shockwave burst from the engagement between the swords to engulf the surrounding area.

Ugh

Trevin groaned while shaking his wrist. A frown appeared on his face because he could feel the impact in his bones, unlike in the previous clash.

Hmm

Raon also seemed injured by the penetration ability of the Steel Penetrating Sword, as he was bleeding harder than before. However, what was important was the fact that Trevin didnt manage to counter his technique.

You

We are only getting started.

Raon lowered his body like a swallow and approached. It only took an instant before the swordcovered in coldnesswas already in front of Trevins face.

Double strike!

It was an extremely fast technique that consisted of slashing with the real blade followed by the blade of ice.

Trevin bit his lip and engulfed his blade with the principles of Lions Assault, the Steel Penetration Swords special technique.

Clang! Claang!

There were two clashes just like the last time. However, Raons first blade was fast, while the second blade was slow. That small difference created a gap in the Lions Assault.

Ugh!

Trevin got pushed to the right and bit his lip. The nausea he felt implied that he was injured internally.

He can control the speed of his technique

Raons sword skill was a double strike that used its extreme quickness to defeat his opponent. Trevin didnt expect that he would change that speed to break his balance.

Whap!

Raons sword was swung into a soft curve. A raging fire bloomed into flowers on top of that line.

Is he using the Flame Spirit?

It was Raons specialty, which hed previously managed to counter.

Whaam!

Countless pieces of fire rushed at him as the flowers finished blooming. The entire world was engulfed in the red flower petals.

Ill destroy it once again!

Trevins breath caught as he pulled his sword back. White light surrounded his sword as he thrust it. He was using the Steel Penetration Swords special technique, the White Destructions Overflow.

Rumble!

Explosions occurred one after the other from the endless clashes between the red and white astral energies over the aloof sky of the battlefield.

Trevin swallowed nervously as he defended against the Flame Spirit.

This has also changed.

He could previously analyze the exact trajectory, but the hundreds of flower petals were randomly moving around unlike before, and even his bones were hurting from the tremendous power behind them. Every single one of them felt like a real blade.

Pssh!

The flower petals that passed through his defense cut through his uniform and caused a burn and had him bleeding at the same time. He gritted his teeth from the intense pain.

Claang!

Trevin forcibly pushed Raon back and exhaled roughly. His blue eyes reflected Raons shape, wavering once again.

H-how did you?

* * *

Raon smiled faintly while watching Trevins surprise.

The Warring Steel division leaders prediction of my growth mustve been limited to my aura.

The Warring Steel division leader did understand the techniques he was using and had prepared countermeasures. Raon could tell that the efforts hed made were worthy of admiration.

However, aura wasnt the only area where I improved.

He didnt skip swinging his sword for a single day after he left the Owen Kingdom. Whenever he was unable to practice, he thought about the parts that needed improvement and trained by fixing them in his mental image.

Since hed been continuously fixing the drawbacks and improving the strong points, the drastic change in his swordsmanship was nothing but a natural outcome.

Raon softly stepped on the land and thrust Heavenly Drive.

Whir!

The raging sphere appeared from the tip of his sword and rotated fiercely to unleash a huge amount of energy toward Trevin.

As for the Revolving Sky, the activation time has been reduced.

Revolving Skys activation was previously slowed down in exchange for increased power, but the speed had gone back up through endless training.

Whaam!

Trevin thrust his sword one step faster, but the Revolving Sky was already complete. The clash between the two special techniques created a huge explosion.

Kuh

Trevin created a barrier of astral energy and stepped back. The left side of his upper body had turned red from the Revolving Skys damage.

Tsk.

Raon clicked his tongue. His right arm was hurting like a spear had stabbed through it. Trevins sword had stabbed his opening despite his confusion, and it was a performance befitting a highest-level Master.

Uhh!

However, Trevins wavering eyes were showing that he was losing his spirit. Raon could tell that he couldnt be affected by the pain, since he had to take another step forward.

Thud!

Raon used the Supreme Harmony Steps. He leaped through the space and slashed down from Trevins right side.

Cring!

A line of fire appeared on Heavenly Drives blade to attack Trevins chest.

Damn it!

Trevin bit his lip and thrust the Steel Penetration Sword. It was rushing with a frightening amount of sharpness and speed.

Claang!

The head-on clash between the Ten Thousand Flames Cultivations Crimson Slash and the Steel Penetration Swords special technique created an orange storm of astral energy.

Rumble!

Trevin almost got washed away by the storm and was pushed far back while he exhaled roughly. A clear scar was left on his chest from a diagonal slash.

Were you hiding your strength in the Owen Kingdom?

His hand holding the sword was trembling in disbelief.

Spit.

Raon spat the blood that was flowing up his throat and shook his head.

No, Ive gotten stronger because I kept training.

Thats even more difficult to believe.

Trevin laughed bitterly and raised his sword.

Since my information ended up being useless, I should finish this fight quickly.

Clear light gathered around his blade. The light soaring on the blade almost looked like a huge spear wielded by a god.

I accept.

Since Trevin had acknowledged him, he also wanted to respond accordingly to his all-out attack.

Whir!

Raon pulled Heavenly Drive back. The fire burst from the tip of his sword and engulfed the entire blade. The fire burst out like the head of a dragon and revealed its crimson jaws.

Rumble!

Trevin stomped the ground, and the Steel Penetration Swords last special technique, the White Armys Pinnacle was unleashed toward him. The tremendous wave of power created by a highest-level Master was crushing his bones and tearing his skin.

Haa

Raon caught his breath while the white light covered his entire vision.

There was no reason to be afraid.

Like an inextinguishable flame

Like the everlasting glacier

All he needed to do was to believe in the sword that hed been practicing all along and take another step forward.

The moment the astral energy of the White Armys Pinnacle reached under his nose, Raon pushed Heavenly Drive forward. The crimson dragon descended on his blade and roared like a raging fire.

Whaaam!
