The Reincarnated Assassin is a Genius Swordsman

of the four flower petals were glittering in red while the other two were glittering in blue.
It was beautiful and smelled nice enough to use it as decoration.

‘This is its true form.’

Teuton flowers used to only have a small amount of fire and water attribute mana.
However, the black butterfly had allowed it to blossom into a state with a lot of mana gathered inside of it, and that was its true form.

‘I think I can eat it now.’

Since he had confirmed that the flower had bloomed, it was now time to make that energy his.

Elixir was a mass of nature’s energy, but its purity was inevitably lower than nature's mana because impurities piled up in the process.

However, the Teuton flower was different.

It didn’t bloom on its own, and receiving the help from another mystical creature purified its energy.
Because it had two different attributes, the two mana types had a purity that could pretty much be considered raw.

‘It’s the perfect elixir for me.’

Raon had the Ring of Fire, the Ten Thousand Flames Cultivation, and an aura of frost.
He was more suitable than anyone else when it came to absorbing the Teuton flower’s energy.

‘Then.’

He popped the Teuton flower into his mouth as if he were taking pills.
He didn’t even need to chew it, as the Teuton flower melted down like sugar and went down his throat before it could even spread its sweet and floral fragrance in his mouth.

‘Woah…’

His stomach repeatedly heated up and cooled down.
It felt like fire and ice were alternating, touching his stomach.
He could confirm that Teuton flower was the real deal from the way it was making a fuss, to the point that it could tear his stomach apart.

Raon smiled slightly.
He sat down on the floor to rotate the Rings of Fire and used the Ten Thousand Flames Cultivation.
The pure energy sprouting from his energy center traveled throughout his body, and the Teuton flower’s energy smashing his stomach started to calm down.

 

Whir!

 

The heated aura from the Ten Thousand Flames Cultivation came up through his mana circuit to guide the Teuton flower’s energy.
His shoulder was hot, his heart was cold, his arm forearm was cool, and his thigh was heavy.

The Teuton flower’s energy started to spread throughout his body, following the energy of the Ten Thousand Flames Cultivation.

‘It’s really pure.’

The two attributes contained inside the Teuton flower were as clean as the fresh snow.
He just needed to circulate the Ten Thousand Flames Cultivation for them to stick onto him by themselves.

 

Whir!

 

Raon’s entire body trembled.
It wasn’t because of pain.

It was because of the exhilaration of Teuton flower’s energy accumulating in his energy center.
As a result, his mouth was curved into an excited smile.

 

Thud!

 

Whenever he used the Ten Thousand Flames Cultivation repeatedly, his energy center and body vibrated to discharge the waste that used to be stuck in his mana circuit like rust.

 

Whoosh!

 

Raon entered a trance, feeling his body and aura advancing to a different level.

Raon opened his eyes.
Dark gray lightning struck from his red eyes.

 

[One strand of the Curse of Frost has disappeared.]

 

[Energy center and mana circuit’s durability has increased.]

 

[Energy has increased greatly.]

 

[Willpower has increased greatly.]

 

[All stats have increased greatly.]

 

There was no need to read the messages.
The high purity energy filling his energy center, the mana circuit that had become broader, and his light body were telling him enough about how his body had changed.

‘It’s better than I thought.’

He thought he wouldn’t be able to absorb everything even if it was the Teuton flower, but he was mistaken.

The Teuton flower’s purity was even better than the Ten Leaf Grass.
He could absorb most of the energy without any waste.

All his stats had increased, but the one that had increased the most was his energy.
The energy stat has increased by more than 10, reaching 70.

‘I think I can probably keep fighting for half a day in my current state.’

The aura of the Ten Thousand Flames Cultivation and the Coldness of the Frost filling his energy center had increased as much as the energy stat’s number.
It seemed he would do pretty well in a drawn-out battle now.

‘I think I can win against an advanced Sword Expert without much difficulty in my current state.’

He didn’t get stronger simply because his aura had increased.

He was now capable of using other techniques from the Ten Thousand Flames Cultivation, ones that he used to be unable to use because of his lack of aura, which meant he was now pretty much twice as strong as before.
Though, it didn’t change the fact that there were still more techniques he couldn’t use than those he could.

‘That can’t be helped.’

The techniques of the Ten Thousand Flames Cultivation required a tremendous amount of aura.
Even though he was purifying his aura with the Ring of Fire, it was inevitable that he lacked aura.

‘That’s why I need to grow up faster.’

He had a lot to do.

He needs to restore Sylvia to the direct line, save Judiel’s younger sibling, and decapitate Derus Robert.

It was necessary to get stronger for that sake, and not only in terms of aura—his body and mind as well.

“Haa.”

Raon stood up and looked out the window.
It seemed he had been cultivating all night long, since that afternoon, as the sun was about to rise.

‘Let’s test it a little.’

He didn’t feel tired at all despite spending the entire night cultivating.

He went to an open area with no one around to test his changed body and internal energy.

He warmed himself up and stomped the ground.

 

Thud!

 

His footprint was engraved on the ground, and sand scattered around him.
It was the same step as before, but the sound resounded throughout the open area because of the higher quality internal energy.

 

Wham!

 

He connected the power of his stomp to his waist to slash his sword.
The cold air of daybreak was split apart like paper.

 

Whir!

 

A crimson light appeared on Raon’s blade.
The techniques of the ‘Ten Thousand Flames Cultivation’ that couldn’t blossom were released naturally.

 

Slam! Slaam!

 

His sword slashed like lightning as he swung it around.
It was a succession of scary techniques that even a qualified swordsman wouldn’t be able to block.

 

Baam!

 

The heat wave emerging from his blade of fire had devastated the surroundings as if a cannonball had bombarded the place.

“Haa…”

After performing the Star Connecting Sword, the Fangs of Insanity, and the Ten Thousand Flames Cultivation one after the other, Raon straightened his posture while exhaling an excited breath.

‘This is great.’

Raon smiled in satisfaction.
His body and blood vessels had improved even further from discharging the waste.
The reaction speed of both his internal energy and his body had also gotten faster.

Trying to move his body is really nice.

There was a difference between heaven and earth when it came to just reading the message and actually moving the body.
He needed to try moving his body to know precisely how much he had changed.

“Well, then.”

Raon tapped his sword, looking at the rising sun.

“Let’s go get a new sword.”
