Rozen frowned when he saw the hatred in Raizen's eyes that made even his heart clench.
Raizen didn't notice this, he tightened his grip on the sword around his waist, and the sharpness of his body increased exponentially, as if he had turned himself into a sword, wanting to cut everything in half.
That sharpness, perhaps even the top Servants of the Saber class may not be able to match up.
From this point alone, Rozen was sure that Raizen's swordsmanship must have reached a very high level, at least not worse than Ebon Ironhide and Ishikata Eishi, the two master swordsman.
The proof was Altoria's words.
"This sword energy, I'm afraid even Lancelot and Gao Wenqing can't match up to it."
The Knight King with the holy sword in his hand made such an evaluation.
So, regardless of strength, Raizen was probably stronger than a top-level Saber Servant in terms of swordsmanship. That might not be the case.
Raizen stared at Rozen.
"Tell me where Akabane Tenzen is, Narukami."
Raizen actually said such a thing.
There was no need to explain what he meant.
"Do you want to find him for revenge?"
Rozen asked bluntly.
"Of course." Raizen answered without hesitation, his voice was full of hatred, as if he had swallowed a curse, and he said in a low voice: "I have been waiting for this day for a long time."
Indeed, Raizen had been waiting for this day for a long time.
In order to take revenge on Akabane Tenzen, Raizen went through a lot of hardships to reach his current level.
In the past, Hinowa also said that she saw Raizen in the military camp, at that time, Raizen was like a demon, constantly swinging his sword at the soldiers who fought with him, even when there were cuts and bruises all over the ground, he didn't stop. From this, it could be seen how much effort Raizen had put in for revenge, and how much hatred he cultivated in his heart.
Now, Raizen had great strength, and it seemed that he was not inferior to Magnus at all.
If Lei Zhen was allowed to take revenge, he might really succeed.
Akabane Clan's second son, who was considered a waste without talent, indeed caught up with the most terrifying genius in the family's history.
However …
"I can't let you seek revenge on Akabane Tenzen."
Rozen said straightforwardly.
"… Why?"
Raizen stared at Rozen, his eyes still surging with bitter hatred.
Seeing this, Rozen knew that Ray would never give up on revenge.
The hatred in his heart was too deep, so deep that it was even comparable to the Avenger Joan of Arc.
But because of this, Rozan can could not let Raizen take revenge.
"There's something fishy about the massacre back then. Maybe there's something hidden behind it."
Rozen didn't beat around the bush and directly said what was on his mind.
However, Raizen did not accept it.
"Secrets? What is it? " Raizen clenched his fists and said in a deep voice, "I saw with my own eyes how Akabane Tenzen massacred his clansmen, and I even saw him disassemble Fuko and stuff it into the bodies of the puppets around him. How could I be wrong?"
Perhaps because he remembered what happened at that time, Raizen's emotions seemed to be a little agitated, causing his magical power began to leak, and the few leaves that floated down were cut into pieces.
Rozen's brows wrinkled deeper and deeper.
"What you see with your eyes is not necessarily true. You should be able to understand this now, right?"
Rozen looked directly into Raizen's eyes and said word by word.
For Raizen, who had already mastered Eye of the Mind, Rozen's words were indeed worth pondering.
Sometimes, what you see with your eyes is not necessarily true.
Therefore, people needed a power like Eye of the Mind, another eye that could see through all falsehoods.
"Then tell me, if it wasn't Akabane Tenzen who killed my family, then who did it?"
Raizen stared at Rozen, and his tone became more questioning.
That was enough to show how persistent Raizen was in this matter.
It was impossible for Raizen not to be persistent when it came to the lives of hundreds of people.
The problem was …
"I'm still investigating, that's why I came to this academy."
Rozen could not tell the truth.
No, in fact, Rozen already had some guesses.
Back then, Rozen already noticed something was wrong. Now that Rozen's state of mind had become more mature, and he even had the assistance of high-speed thinking and divided thinking. Combined with some of the situations at that time, he made a lot of guesses.
But guesses were just guesses, Rozen still lacked crucial evidence.
In that case, there was no need to say it out loud.
Unfortunately, Raizen didn't understand Rozen's thoughts.
"You don't want to believe that Akabane Tenzen is the murderer who slaughtered your family?"
Raizen stared at Rozen with anxiety in his eyes, which made him reach out his hand and hold Rozen's shoulder tightly.
"I know that you are a sentimental person. Although you are not related to us by blood, you have always been good to us, treating us as your own brothers and sisters. Even if your talent is comparable to Brother Tian … comparable to Akabane Tenzen, but you lost to him because you don't have the Crimson Wing's Blood, you don't have any resentment. You treat me as an equal even though I don't have any magical talent, and you love Fukiko just as much. I understand that you don't want to doubt him."
With that, Raizen also held Rozen's shoulder tightly with his other hand and said emotionally.
"But I really saw it with my own eyes! I saw him kill my father with my own eyes! He killed my family! And dissected Fukiko! "
"No matter what kind of secrets there are, there is no doubt about this, and it is absolutely unforgivable!"
"He, Akabane Tenzen, is the enemy who slaughtered my family!"
Raizen's words went into Rozen's ears one after another.
“.....”
Rozen was silent.
Looking at Rozen like this, Raizen suddenly calmed down.
"… Sorry, I'm too emotional."
Raizen looked at Rozen apologetically. Looking at Rozen who was silent, Raizen took a deep breath and smiled reluctantly.
"It's okay, Narukami, I don't want you to do it."
"I will kill Akabane Tenzen myself."
"You don't have to think too much about it. Just leave it to me."
Raizen revealed a determined look.
After all, in this world, apart from Akabane Tenzen, Rozen was Raizen's only family.
In that case, no matter what happens, Raizen will protect Rozen and not let anything happen to him.
As for revenge, it was enough to have himself.
Rozen just needed to live a good life and get his own happiness.
That was Raizen's thought.
"Okay, I'll go first, let's talk when we have time."
Raizen patted Rozen's shoulder, then looked at Irori, Ye Ye, and Komurasaki, who had been silent, and slightly bowed his head to them.
"My family is in your hands."
After that, Raizen turned around and left.
Rozen watched Raizen leave and didn't say anything.
Because Rozen knew very well that no matter what he said, Raizen, who was deep in hatred, would not listen.
"It seems that I have to speed up."
Rozen's murmur echoed in the surroundings, bringing silence.
