Chapter 254
Raon followed Lohengreen into the fourth cavern.
‘This place is also full of corpses.’
The corpses were lying all around the cavern, and their wounds told him that they had died while fighting against each other.
[O’ priest of Wrath.]
Lohengreen turned around after looking around the cavern.
[Is what you told me just now really true?]
“What did I say just now?”
Raon asked back, even though he knew what Lohengreen was talking about.
[Is it true that the God of Wrath wants an item to fix the energy center?]
Lohengreen spoke extremely carefully and lowered his gaze.
“Of course.”
Raon nodded while looking up at Lohengreen. He smiled gently, without a single trace of dishonesty in his expression.
“There’s no way I would lie under his name. It’s obviously true.”
That one just now! You are lying right now!
Wrath floundered his arms like a drunkard.
The King of Essence said nothing about it, yet you are making up everything as you please!
He started to flutter his feet while lying in the air. He was apparently going insane from the irritation.
[Hmm, I can’t understand it. When I saw him back then, he was literally the god. He didn’t even need an energy center since his entire body was filled with extreme power and wrath. I don’t understand why he would need an item to fix the energy center.]
“Ah, you misunderstood me.”
[What would be that misunderstanding…?]
“He’s not the one who needs the item.”
[What?]
“It will be bestowed upon his servant.”
Raon closed his eyes and smiled.
You bastaaaard!
Wrath climbed up to his left ear and screamed.
Why would that shitty ears be the King of Essence’s servant? The King of Essence doesn’t have the smallest intentions of healing that guy!
“Since Sir Lohengreen has also served him before, you must be aware of this fact.”
Raon pretended to touch his ear to push Wrath back.
“The God of Wrath is extremely considerate towards his believers.”
[Of course! He gave me so many things, yet he never wanted anything in return!]
Lohengreen’s eyes sparkled in passion as soon as they started talking about Wrath.
‘I knew it.’
It was going as expected.
Raon had noticed that Wrath always helped and took care of whoever he started calling his servant.
‘He saved Dorian, and also helped Runaan.’
He warned Raon when Dorian was in danger, and he also told him when Syria tried to brainwash Runaan once again. There was also an occasion where he was considerate towards Yua at Habun Castle.
‘Lohengreen must also be aware of that side of him.’
Raon could tell from the way Wrath cut off the connection and told him to live his own life right after Lohengreen completed his revenge. Even though Wrath looked coldhearted, he took care of his people properly.
You damn weasel! How much of a fool are you trying to make of me? Say something at least!
He even gave up on speaking like a king and started to shout like a child. Considering the red color on his face, he was about to explode.
“Hmm…”
Raon ignored Wrath’s anger and looked at Lohengreen.
“There’s another priest that follows his will. He was injured during a mission, and the God of Wrath is extremely worried about him.”
The King of Essence isn’t!
Wrath violently shook his head and spread around coldness.
The King of Essence has never wanted to save that shitty ears! He wants to smack him instead!
‘I’m perfectly aware.’
Just like he said, Wrath always hated how Rimmer kept idling around on the ground. However, there was nothing he could do, since no one could hear him.
“There are two reasons for my coming here. First, to get rid of Sir Lohengreen’s lingering attachments. Second, to find a method to fix the other priest’s energy center.”
[Hmm, I see.]
Lohengreen briefly licked his lips.
‘He’s slightly suspicious of me.’
It looked like he didn’t completely trust him because Raon said Wrath couldn’t treat his priest despite being omnipotent in his opinion.
‘I need to put an end to his doubt.’
Raon rolled up the corners of his lips while looking at Wrath instead of Lohengreen.
‘What can you do? Your servant can’t hear you at all, and I’m the only one who can talk to him.’
Kuh…
Wrath’s eyes were wavering like a boat in a turbulent ocean. He was incapable of thinking straight because his head was filled with wrath.
‘If you really want to tell him something, I might convey it to him if you properly ask me by saying ‘esteemed Sir Raon, please’…’
Kuaaah! I can’t take it anymore! You evil fiend!
Raon made the same sly smile he always made whenever he made fun of him, and Wrath suddenly flipped out.
Rumble!
As expected of the Demon King of Wrath, who couldn’t even read the situation, he exploded the coldness of wrath that pierced into Raon’s mana circuit.
‘I did it.’
Raon smiled. He endured the wrath and coldness coming from Wrath without using the Ring of Fire and aura that he would’ve normally used.
Rumble!
The combination between Wrath’s anger and the wrath inside his soul created a blue flame of wrath, bursting out from his head to toe.
[Ah!]
Lohengrin widened his mouth upon witnessing the blue wrath bursting from Raon’s body.
[Wh-What an amazing wrath and coldness. It almost feels like I’m facing the god himself!]
Raon smiled gently while enduring the pain.
‘Yes, he is indeed in front of you.’
Although the others couldn’t see what was happening, Lohengreen was capable of feeling the tremendous amount of wrath bursting from Raon’s body because he had received the wrath and coldness from Wrath in the past.
“He bestowed an even larger amount of wrath and coldness on me so that I can complete this task. His kindness and consideration for his believers must be peerless.”
Raon deepened his smile while enduring the pain.
[Aah! Please forgive this lowly servant!]
Lohengreen went down on his knees and lowered his head.
[I believe you, priest! I’ll give you all of the elixirs and artifacts I have!]
The trace of doubt completely disappeared from his eyes.
Raon bowed back with a faint smile on his face.
‘It’s over.’
Lohengreen’s voice was filled with complete trust after facing the wrath coming from the real Wrath.
Huh?
Wrath started to blink his round eyes instead of continuing to emit his wrath. He must’ve come back to his senses upon seeing Lohengreen’s reaction.
Wh-What’s happening…?
‘Lohengreen trusts me completely now thanks to your wrath.’
Raon smiled from the bottom of his heart, waving his hand at Wrath.
‘Thank you, Wrath.’
Y-You…
Wrath wrinkled his forehead like a piece of paper.
You took advantage of the King of Essence again! You damned snake!
‘It just happened.’
It just happened? You planned it all along, and you claim it just happened? Argh!
He roared, and an even larger amount of wrath and coldness stormed into Raon’s body.
[The wrath is increasing even more.]
“He must be counting on me a lot.”
C-Counting on you? Cooooounting? You must’ve meant crap! You are the definition of evil! I’ll put an end to your life right now for the sake of the world!
Raon controlled the Ring of Fire and Glacier to block the wrath and coldness coming from Wrath. Since he’d already gained Lohengreen’s trust, he didn’t need to endure them anymore.
I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you even if it’s the last thing I do! For the sake of the world!
‘It’s pointless.’
Wrath used all of the wrath and coldness that he’d been accumulating, but they were obviously incapable of breaching the Ring of Fire and Glacier.
