The Reincarnated Assassin is a Genius Swordsman 866
Chapter 866
Raon silently turned around and widened his eyes. A man wearing a green snake helmet was walking out from behind the corpse of the Black Dragon.
"You are…."
He had felt someone approaching earlier, but he hadn’t expected it to be Eden, let alone someone wearing a snake helmet.
That snake helmet bastard. Isn't this the fourth time?
Wrath frowned, wondering why he kept coming back to life.
‘Right. The color changes each time, though.’
Gold, red, blue, and now green snake. He didn’t know where this would end. Absurdly, he was starting to get curious about the next color.
'What's even funnier is….'
He’s getting stronger.
The energy of the man wearing the green snake helmet had moved beyond Grandmaster and reached Transcendence. Although lower in level than Raon himself, he had clearly broken the wall and surpassed human limits.
How strange. It's clearly a different human, and the presence isn't even similar, yet it feels like the same bastard.
Wrath shook his head, saying that his very existence was peculiar.
‘Yeah. There’s definitely something there.’
Just as Wrath had said, the ones wearing the snake helmets before were all dead, and the one in the green snake helmet before him now was clearly someone else.
However, the ones wearing the snake helmets all retained memories of their interactions with him. This sparked the suspicion that they were either the same individual or sharing the same consciousness.
“Green this time, huh?”
Raon frowned as he looked at the man wearing the green snake helmet.
“You recognized me right away.”
The man wearing the green snake helmet stroked his helmet and smiled faintly.
"What exactly are you?"
Raon tilted his chin while pointing the divine sword at him.
"You can call me Green Wolf Snake for now."
The green snake helmet man called himself Green Wolf Snake and gestured lightly with his hand. He seemed less frivolous than the previous ones.
“I’m not asking for your name.”
"Then what do you want to know?"
Green Wolf Snake tilted his head as if urging him to speak.
"I’m asking what your identity is."
Raon raised his sharp gaze like a needle.
"Earlier, you said that every time you see me, I become surprisingly stronger. That means you’ve met me before, but this is my first time seeing you."
He twisted his lips, his voice as cold as ice.
"Though this is the fourth time seeing that ugly helmet."
“That’s the same question you asked before, isn’t it?”
Green Wolf Snake lightly nodded.
"The answer is simple. Think as you feel. You can consider me the same person or not—it’s up to you."
He shrugged his shoulders as though telling him to think whatever he liked, showing no intention of giving a real answer.
"More importantly…."
Green Wolf Snake clicked his tongue as he looked at the corpse of the Black Dragon.
"Even if it hadn’t been long since it became an ancient dragon, I didn’t think Jera Pirette would die so easily. Should I have handled things a little faster?"
He let out a hollow laugh, as though he couldn’t believe the Black Dragon had died.
"Handling things? What are you plotting by joining forces with the dragons?"
Raon asked, lacing his words with killing intent.
"Isn't it obvious? To burn this place down."
Acting as though it was obvious, Green Wolf Snake brushed off his hands.
"The World Tree?"
"It’s something I couldn’t do before because of you."
He smacked his lips, referring to the time he came as the Red Demonic Snake with the Crimson Flame Demon to attack Seipia.
“So you really do share a consciousness with the ones who died?”
Raon furrowed his eyebrows as he looked at Green Wolf Snake.
"It’s not sharing. My consciousness is entirely my own. Of course, the next one will be different…."
Green Wolf Snake muttered something incomprehensible in a calm tone. He was distinctly different in personality from the previous ones.
“In that case….”
Raon was about to speak to Green Wolf Snake but turned his gaze north. Sterin’s energy had decreased considerably from before. It looked like he was getting pushed back a lot.
‘And besides….’
That bastard Green Wolf Snake is hiding something.
Considering he came back after taking care of something, he must have either taken something from Seipia or planted something there. Cutting him down as quickly as possible and going to help Sterin was the right thing to do.
"I have a lot of questions, but no time. I’ll deal with you as quickly as possible."
Raon pointed the divine sword, wrapped in killing intent, at Green Wolf Snake.
"I thought this time I was ahead, but here you are again, above me."
As Green Wolf Snake snapped his fingers, a massive red dragon soared into the sky above Seipia with red flames blazing around it.
"It was a good call to ask Matirus to send me one more."
He nodded with satisfaction.
"With a two-on-one, stopping you shouldn’t be too hard."
"A dragon…."
Raon bit his lips as he looked at the Red Dragon hovering in the sky.
‘It’s lived long, but it’s not an ancient dragon.’
Judging by its size and mana, it was close to the end of its lifespan as an adult dragon, but fortunately, it hadn’t reached the level of an ancient dragon.
‘Of course, the fact that it’s red is a problem.’
The red tribe was among the strongest in brute strength among dragons, and this was a forest—its most advantageous battlefield.
Oho! Two roasted lizards! And with different flavors!
Wrath clapped his hands as if he was pleased. Despite the dangerous situation, Raon let out a hollow laugh.
[You got ambushed like a fool.]
The Red Dragon squinted its eyes in irritation, seemingly more annoyed at the Black Dragon being ambushed by a human than enraged by its death, and opened its massive mouth. Red mana, glowing like molten lava, began condensing above its pitch-black throat, as deep as an abyss.
[But I will avenge you!]
The Red Dragon spewed out the flames it had been condensing in its mouth. A breath of fire. The dragon’s strongest breath rained down on Raon like lightning.
Kugugugugugugu!
Unlike the Black Dragon’s, it didn’t spread over a wide area, it was compressed into one spot, so the pressure was immense. Raon’s feet dug into the ground by themselves, and his hand gripping the sword trembled.
"Try blocking it first."
Green Wolf Snake stepped back, as if to conserve his strength. He vanished from view in an instant, moving like he was riding the wind.
Hoo!
Raon furrowed his brows as he stared at the fire breath flowing like molten lava.
‘Such extreme heat.’
Even with Fire Resistance, the heat from the breath made his skin feel like it was burning. Without the Ring of Fire, he wouldn’t even have been able to stay in this spot.
Toooong!
Raon gritted his teeth and charged into the fire breath. Resonating the Ring of Fire to its extreme, he unleashed the Great Bind of the Heavy Sky of the Azure Sky Sword with the frost demonic sword, which flickered with a silvery light.
Kwaaaahhhhh!
The fire breath, which seemed capable of destroying the great forest, collided with Glacier’s cold energy, leading to a clash of heat and cold in midair. Steam erupted everywhere, and white frost spread across the ground.
Jijijijik!
The slash of Great Bind of the Heavy Sky, embodying the grandeur of the sky, shattered the heat and began freezing the fire breath itself. Towering blue icicles rose from the ground, reaching toward the sky.
[Impossible!]
The Red Dragon’s eyes trembled violently, as though it couldn’t believe its full-powered breath of fire had been stopped.
[How can you freeze my fire breath….]
“Go play somewhere else, rookie.”
Raon stepped on the frozen fire breath and ascended into the sky. Before the flustered Red Dragon could react, he slashed toward its neck with the Sword's Silvery Dream.
Zhaaaaaaa!
The blade of the divine sword, burning red hot, penetrated the Red Dragon’s scales, aiming to destroy its dragon heart—when suddenly a green blade, imbued with wind, surged upward.
Jjeoeeoeeoeeong!
It was Green Wolf Snake. The bastard who had disappeared had appeared again and blocked Raon’s strike with his sword.
“I can’t let you kill this one too. It’s time for you to step back.”
As Green Wolf Snake lowered his chin, a strong wind blew Raon away.
“And if I refuse?”
Raon endured Green Wolf Snake’s wind with his Transcendence will and pressed the demonic sword down onto the divine sword.
Sraaaack!
Though he couldn’t destroy the Red Dragon’s heart, he inflicted a fatal wound on its neck before retreating.
[Graaaargh!]
The Red Dragon screamed, its enormous body writhing in agony from the torn flesh.
“I didn’t expect you to go that far.”
The Green Wolf Snake frowned, remarking on Raon’s bold and frightening personality.
“Very persistent.”
He clicked his tongue, saying Raon seemed to have become more aggressive.
“But you’re not scared, are you?”
In response to Green Wolf Snake’s shout, the Red Dragon, still writhing in pain, bared its teeth.
[Not at all! I’ll kill that insect with my own hands!]
The Red Dragon healed its wounds with magic, revealing eyes full of murderous intent.
Wuuuuung!
High-level magic spells began forming one after another around the Red Dragon, and perhaps because it is of the Red Dragon species, the power of its magic seemed comparable to that of the Black Dragon Raon had just killed.
Siiiiiing!
Green Wolf Snake, now seemingly ready to fight at full strength, gathered green wind onto his sword.
"I don't like your wind."
Raon deeply furrowed his brows as he gazed at the wind imbued in Green Wolf Snake's sword.
"I'll crush it immediately."

"Haah…"
Siyan let out a long sigh as she lowered her hand.
‘This is exhausting.’
Even though Raon had erased most of the poisonous energy, he couldn’t block the poison carried by the wind. Summoning four high-level spirits simultaneously to protect all of Seipia had drained her mental strength, leaving her dizzy.
‘But I can’t rest yet.’
Siyan narrowed her eyes as she looked at Raon, the Red Dragon, and Green Wolf Snake fighting in the sky.
‘If I stay here, Sir Raon won’t be able to exert his full strength.’
Seipia was home to many elves and children who couldn’t fight. To allow Raon to unleash his full strength and prepare for any unforeseen circumstances, they couldn’t remain in this place.
"Everyone, move to the holy ground!"
Siyan opened a rift leading to the holy ground she had created to protect the World Tree and called out to the elves remaining in the village.
"But if we put the World Tree in danger because of us…."
"It’s fine! The World Tree has always thought of us first!"
She shouted firmly at the hesitant elves, pointing to the path leading to the holy ground. Compared to when she was trembling in front of Raon, it was as though she had become a completely different person.
"Understood."
"Everyone, into the holy ground! Start with the children!"
Gaining confidence from Siyan's words, the elves began moving toward the holy ground, their hesitant steps quickening.
"Sir Raon."
Siyan clasped her hands together as she watched Raon extinguish the flames of the Red Dragon.
‘Please.’
She prayed for no one to die before stepping into the holy ground herself.
* * *
‘Good.’
Raon nodded his head as he watched the elves entering the holy ground. It had been difficult to adjust so that magic or sword strikes didn’t land on Seipia, but it seemed like he could fight properly from now on.
“Where do you think you’re looking?”
Green Wolf Snake furrowed his brow and swung his sword. With that one slash, hundreds of wind blades surged toward all the vital points of Raon’s body.
[Explode!]
The Red Dragon used the wind created by Green Wolf Snake to launch Explosive Fire Orchid, a high-level fire magic. Normally powerful but slow, the magic rode the wind and pierced forward like a beam of light.
Jjeoeeoeeng!
Raon simultaneously raised Firewall and unleashed White Shadow Slash, blocking both the wind blades and the Explosive Fire Orchid. However, the impact was so great that he couldn’t stop himself from being pushed back.
"It seems even you are struggling with two-on-one."
[You won’t be able to block this time.]
Green Wolf Snake gathered all the wind in the air into a blade, while the Red Dragon concentrated its fire breath once more.
“Is that so?”
Raon, as if he had been intentionally pushed back, heavily kicked off the ground and advanced toward the Red Dragon and the Green Wolf Demon. Tilting the divine sword above his shoulder and the demonic sword behind his waist, he increased the Supreme Harmony Steps’ output to the maximum.
Chiiiiiiing!
Like a dying star unleashing its final burst, flames and frost surged up over the dimming divine sword and demonic sword, as though to blanket the sky.
Raon Zieghart Style Swordplay.
Sixth Form, Harmony of Heaven and Demon, Combined Technique - Red and Blue Invincible Sword.
The pinnacle of the sword field that had reached Transcendence manifested through the blades of the divine and demonic swords into the world.
Kwoaaaaaaah!
Flame and frost, which should naturally oppose each other, extended outward in an unusual harmony, completely splitting the Red Dragon's breath and the Green Wolf Snake's wind blades.
Huuuuuush!
The blackened sky split open under the massive mana waves, and a black tornado rose from the ground to the sky.
Yet because the Red Dragon and Green Wolf Snake had also unleashed their full strength, the wave of Red and Blue Invincible Sword was unable to slice them down and vanished into nothingness.
[How is this possible? A mere human….]
The Red Dragon let out an exhausted breath, seemingly unable to believe Raon’s strength.
"My hands are shaking."
Green Wolf Snake loosened his grip, shaking out his trembling hands.
"Still, it’s fortunate. That guy’s sword field has ended, so he can’t produce the same power as before… huh?"
He widened his eyes in shock.
"What the—!"
The sword that should have been in Raon’s hand was gone. Realizing this, a blade tore through the space to his right. It was the Dancing Sword.
"Guh!"
Green Wolf Snake hastily raised wind to block Heavenly Drive.
Tzzzeeeeng!
He managed to block it, but the strength imbued in the Dancing Sword was too great to avoid internal damage. Black blood spilled from his mouth.
"Kurgh, help me… huh?"
As Green Wolf Snake turned to ask for help, a glowing blue leaf-like sword was embedded in the Red Dragon’s neck.
“This is insane….”
Raon Zieghart had fired two Dancing Swords from the start, and unlike himself, the dragon failed to avoid them and seemed to have simply offered its neck.
[Guoooooh….]
For a dragon, the heart is a vital point akin to a human’s heart, and with its heart destroyed, the Red Dragon collapsed lifelessly to the ground.
Kuwoooooong!
The Red Dragon, who had looked down on humans along with Jera Pirette, rolled its eyes back as it met its end.
"I thought our levels were similar, but I didn’t expect this much of a difference in strength."
Green Wolf Snake trembled, his bloodstained lips quivering as he looked at the corpses of the Red and Black Dragons.
"Hoo."
Raon exhaled, the scent of blood lingering in his breath, his back slightly hunched.
‘It worked.’
As the Harmony of Heaven and Demon ended, he launched the Dancing Sword at full force, aiming at both of them simultaneously. At least he managed to bring down one. It would have been better if Green Wolf Snake had died as well, but killing at least one was fortunate.
‘Though I’m completely exhausted….’
Having fought consecutive battles at full strength and entered the mental world, he was both mentally and physically exhausted. His body felt as heavy as if it were soaked in water, and his aura was nearly depleted, but he didn’t let it show, maintaining a calm and composed gaze.
"Your advantageous situation has ended."
Raon caught the returning Heavenly Drive and Rimmer’s sword, shaking his head.
"Let’s finish this without further words…."
As he prepared to attack Green Wolf Snake, a deafening explosion erupted.
Kuaaaaaang!
Something flew from the north and struck the center of Seipia.
"Ugh…."
Turning his gaze, he saw Sterin staggering amidst a cloud of dust. At the same time, a noble-looking man with blond hair and golden eyes appeared beside Green Snake Demon.
"Is it ready?"
The blond-haired man tilted his chin toward Green Wolf Snake.
"Of course, it’s done."
Green Wolf Snake licked his lips and nodded.
"Then…."
At the blond-haired man’s snap, Seipia crumpled like paper in a giant’s grasp, unleashing an overwhelming explosion.
Kwoaaaaaaaang!
Golden light tore through space, breaking the holy ground’s barrier that had been concealing the World Tree.
"Aaah…."
"What… What is this!"
Siyan and the elves, who had stood to protect the World Tree, widened their eyes at the sudden turn of events.
"Are you Raon Zieghart?"
The blond-haired man, who seemed to be a dragon, arrogantly lifted his chin.
"In such a short time, you’ve killed two of my kin. You must die here."
With killing intent gleaming in his calm eyes, he tilted his head.
"Another disadvantageous fight, huh?"
Green Wolf Snake smirked, casually twirling his sword.
"A disadvantageous fight…."
Raon gazed at Heavenly Drive and Rimmer’s sword, a faint smile tugging at his lips.
"I’ve fought through those more times than I can count."
He raised golden flames over Heavenly Drive and Rimmer’s sword and murmured coldly.
"I’ll show you what Zieghart’s swordsmen are made of."
