The Reincarnated Assassin is a Genius Swordsman

Chapter 253

[You really can see me, right? Say something again! Quickly!]

Raon narrowed his eyes while looking at Lohengreen writhing in the air.

‘Is he really your servant?’

Indeed.

Wrath nodded while wrinkling his nose.

‘Then why did you not realize it before?’

It was understandable that he wouldn’t notice from the name because he was using a different name as Lohengreen. However, it wasn’t normal that he didn’t notice his own power.

Do you still not realize it?

‘Realize what?’

He’s already dead.

‘Ah!’

Raon swallowed nervously. He forgot about it because Lohengreen looked so lively as he spoke and moved, but his transparent appearance—missing his legs—was what a ghost would look like.

Most of the power that the King of Essence lent to that four-eyes has already returned to his main body.

Wrath shook his head while looking at the ice flower pattern on Lohengreen’s robes.

Since his death changed his energy, recognizing it is as difficult as finding a cup of beer that you poured into a river upstream when standing downstream.

‘I see.’

That was actually normal.

Lohengreen was one of the heroes who fought against Merlin the Witch of Betrayal hundreds of years ago. No matter how long the Masters and advanced magicians lived, it was impossible for him to still be alive.

‘Then why is he in that state? Did he really become a ghost?’

Raon asked while looking at Lohengreen’s transparent tail, which was sticking out from his blue robes.

That’s not a ghost. It’s a remnant of his mind. The shell of his soul that couldn’t leave the world because of regrets.

Wrath declared in irritation.

Just like the shabby dagger you have contains the resentment of people, he also turned into that wretched state because of the lingering attachments he had.

‘What lingering attachments did he have?’

Raon got curious about what kind of lingering attachment he could’ve had when he was an excellent magician who was praised as a hero.

There’s…

‘There’s?’

There’s no way the King of Essence would know that!

Wrath shook his hand widely.

‘But why would you not know? Haven’t you watched him all along?’

Raon tilted his head. He couldn’t understand why Wrath didn’t know about it since he must’ve been sticking with Lohengreen just like he was with Raon himself.

Not everyone is like you…

Wrath ground his teeth so hard that a grating sound could be heard.

The King of Essence generously granted that four-eyes his power on a whim!

His eyes filled with burning anger.

And you! You called on the King of Essence and robbed away everything he had! There’s a huge difference between you two!

‘Ah…’

Raon slowly lowered his eyes.

‘I see.’

Wrath kept screaming that it had never happened to him before and fainted whenever Raon took away his stats. Considering that reaction and what he’d just said, Lohengreen’s case must’ve been the complete opposite from his.

[Can’t you hear me? Answer me already!]

Raon didn’t look at Lohengreen. He looked down at Wrath in order to obtain some more information.

‘You mentioned generosity and whim. What did you mean?’

There’s no reason for the King of Essence to tell you!

‘I’ll give you two more pineapple pizzas.’

Are you going to keep taking the King of Essence for a glutton?

‘But Yua told me that she was going to make a shrimp pizza before we left.’

Sh-Shrimp?

‘A beef will be added on top of the shrimp, with two pieces of pineapple on top…’

He was similar to you in the beginning. That’s when…

Wrath immediately started to talk. He was fast and cheerful.

When the war against Pride had ended, the King of Essence was resting in his castle. That was when he could feel someone’s wrath. Since the wrath was coming from a different dimension from Devildom, it aroused his curiosity.

He used his clone to distract the mediators and went to the source of that powerful wave of wrath.

“Kuaaah!”

The city was engulfed in flames. A young man was screaming desperately on a land covered with corpses and blood with his green hair dyed red.

“I’ll kill them! I’m going to kill them! I’ll kill all of them!”

As he shouted his resentment against someone, black blood was flowing down from his eyes and mouth. The emotion of wrath was killing his mind.

How obvious.

The emotion of wrath was usually caused by someone else. His heart was burning from the wrath of losing his family and the village at someone else’s hand.

The King of Essence went to the young man and asked him what he wanted. He stared at his eyes for a long time before he started to talk.

“Power! I want the power to kill all of the
