30 Years After Reincarnating, It Turns Out This World Was A Rofan?! novel Chapter 248

That time, when he was innocent and still full of dreams. He had certainly set "her" as his goal.

He immediately saw through the facade of Felicia's angry emotions.

“To a swordsman, that’s a fatal flaw.”

Indeed, for superhumans, rejuvenation was more of a misfortune than a blessing.

Why?

Felicia’s rage erupted, and in an instant, countless swords appeared around her.

Dozens, no, hundreds of swords soared into the sky, and they moved as if they were a meteor shower.

The swords rained down.

“Ugh!”

In a moment of peril, his life hanging by a thread, the man swung his sword.

Weakly.

But the next moment, the sword that Iliad unsheathed...

He sliced through the meteor shower.

***

It was easy to subdue the swordsmen who had started the rebellion.

Clink...

Many had seen Gardin, the center of the rebellion, surrender without even drawing his sword, and [N O V E L I G H T] having witnessed Ihan's overwhelming combat abilities that even surpassed the legendary vampire, their will to fight was broken.

The following process was simple.

The imprisoned swordsmen of Offen were released, the half-breeds were subdued or re-imprisoned, and those who tried to escape were caught as a pursuit team was quickly formed. The situation was essentially settled, though it was not an exaggeration to say that it was over...

"Hmm..."

Arno, who had been pondering Ihan's question for a moment, was making his best guess about their whereabouts.

Even after such a huge commotion, the family heads were still missing.

Though there were no signs anywhere, it could be presumed they weren’t around this area...

The culprit who had flown from the Monster Forest was, in fact, him.

However, no trace of the swordmaster could be felt, which made the statement puzzling.

Ihan understood the existence of this technique, especially considering the part about concealing one’s power and minimizing surrounding damage.

It was true that a person with such aura abilities could wreak havoc without any regard for the consequences.

A technique like this wouldn’t be out of place.

Arno was slightly flustered by the term “woman” used for his grandmother, but Ihan didn’t have the mental energy to consider his manners at the moment.

That was understandable.

If there was anything that bothered him...

"Why are you all following me?"

His disciples, trailing behind him like ducklings, were the real problem, weren’t they?

"It’s part of my family’s duty."

"I’m just doing the master’s errands."

"Perhaps I’ll be helpful? Maybe my healing skills or medical knowledge might come in handy..."

"...You’re all such busybodies."

During a teacher’s conference, Ihan had heard that students were stubborn and sometimes treated their teachers like dogs, beneath them in all ways. But his own students were different... so stubbornly sincere.

‘Being too diligent can be a problem, though.’

Who would have thought that their kindness and sincerity could become a problem?

‘It’s hard to tell them to go back when they’re so determined to help.’

They looked like they were making resolute efforts to be of help, but Ihan could never bring himself to tell them firmly to turn back, thinking they wouldn't be of assistance.

He barely managed to suppress a wry smile as he continued to follow Kunta.

"There, Instructor!"

"...Here?"

"Yes, right here."

"..."

"See, I told you it’s real..."

"Don’t tell me you were silent out of suspicion."

Ihan trusted Kunta’s abilities without a doubt.

Even though all that lay before them was a completely ordinary thicket, with nothing out of place, Ihan kept observing the forest carefully, his instincts alert.

...

Suddenly, a chill ran down his spine.

"Hurry up."

"Got it! Kunta, come this way!"

Ihan shouted with authority, ushering his disciples behind him.

If this was just a gut feeling, that would be fine. But if it wasn’t...

Swish!

"!?"

Before Ihan could finish his thought, the forest suddenly warped, and he desperately swung his sword.

Whoooosh!

Plum Blossom Sword Art—

The plum blossoms bloomed, wrapping around him and his disciples like budding flowers.

As soon as the blossom buds fully bloomed...

Whooooosh!
