I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy

Episode 114 With one punch from Tokyo

Darkness, the castle gate and the walls above it collapsed.

‘What is that crazy guy doing!’

Whether Baek Woo-jin was surprised or not, the darkness struck the panicked right gatekeeper’s neck and knocked him out, and the left gatekeeper swung his sword and cut off his head.

‘uh?’

The darkness trembled the moment the gatekeeper’s head fell. His mouth moved like a mumble.

‘sorry?’

Baek Woo-jin was able to notice that the shape of his mouth was saying ‘I’m sorry.’

Pow!

The darkness climbed up the castle wall and knocked out the soldier who was trying to fire an arrow at him, and the soldier who could not react was killed.

‘what?’

It was strange.

The darkness saved the soldier who pointed his weapon at him and killed the soldier who could not react.

If he had a dark personality that he knew, he should have killed everyone or completely subdued them all with overwhelming energy waves.

No matter how you look at it, that wasn’t his way.

‘What on earth are you doing…’

Even after entering the castle, the darkness continued to kill and subdue people.

There were countless knights and soldiers, but nothing could stop him.

‘It’s strange as expected.’

The darkness left behind a group of people running away and followed and killed one person, and even while being attacked by dozens of people, it only killed one old man.

‘This is not a battle.’

The losses were so great and the fighting method was incomprehensible. It was clear that there was some secret or story.

‘My lips are trembling.’

Not just the dark lips, but the entire body was trembling. Every time he killed someone, his tremors got a little worse.

The darkness killed one-fifth of the people in the castle, regardless of whether they were commoners, nobles, warriors, or ordinary people.

People who lost their family and friends and were overcome by evil cursed him and cried out, but darkness did not attack them.

I did not say anything and received their curses with my trembling lips clenched shut.

He looked up at the sky with a sad look and then disappeared.

‘Hmm…’

Time began to stop as Baek Woo-jin looked around to find darkness.

The sky fell, the earth rose, and everything was immersed in darkness.

“Huh!”

When I opened my eyes, I saw the ceiling of my room.

“Darkness!”

-…we are here.

The darkness flew helplessly and appeared in front of Baek Woo-jin.

“saw?”

-I saw everything.

The voice of darkness was exhausted, as if it had just woken up from sleep.

“Then you know. There must have been circumstances.”

Baek Woo-jin looked at the staggering darkness with eyes filled with trust.

It is certain that darkness committed a murder, but there must be a reason. That’s all I could be sure of.

-But many of the people I killed were civilians with no powers or abilities.

“That’s…”

Baek Woo-jin couldn’t find anything to say. One of the things the darkness always said was not to harm civilians.

-Plus, the people in that castle seemed to know me. They screamed and cursed at me with disappointment.

“Hmm…”

The darkness certainly killed a large number of civilians, and people looked at the darkness with betrayal.

“Ugh!”

Baek Woo-jin shook his head. Since I couldn’t figure out the situation with my current information and memories anyway, I decided to think about it however I wanted.

“You are not a demon who would do something like that without any meaning. “He’s stupid, though.”

-huh?

At Baek Woo-jin’s last words, darkness looked back at him.

“I may be a piece of scrap metal that makes noise, but I’m not a crazy person who would do something like that for no reason.”

-One word is too many?

“Are you just telling the truth?”

-If you want to comfort, comfort, and if you want to tease, tease! You idiot!

“A piece of iron that can’t do anything on its own!”

Baek Woo-jin and Heuk-am argued childishly.

-Yamsaeng’s son…

Even as he glared at Baek Woojin, he felt very grateful that he was comforting him.

I knew that he had created this situation on purpose to relieve the heavy atmosphere.

“Stop thinking about useless things and think about making me stronger. Now I have to train again…”

As Baek Woo-jin was about to get up, he heard someone approaching the door.

smart.

When I heard the knock, it was Moon Joo-young.

“come in.”

“omg!”

Moon Ju-young, who opened the door and came in, swallowed a sigh of relief as soon as she saw Baek Woo-jin.

“You really slept here?”

“Because I’m tired.”

Baek Woo-jin scratched his head with an embarrassed face.

“sorry! “I should have checked!”

“are you okay. “I just need to wash up and go back to sleep.”

Baek Woo-jin woke up with a smile.

“Ah…”

Moon Joo-young hesitated, unable to speak.

“why?”

“The head of the family has called you.”

“okay?”

Baek Woo-jin was not surprised, as if he knew that would happen.

-Did you know?

‘of course.’

-Anyway, I’m quick to notice.

‘I don’t know if my father knew that there was a secret tomb at Daeyeonmun. But…’

Baek Woo-jin looked out the window with a cold smile.

‘You probably knew that they would attack me at the main gate.’

**

“Meet the matriarch!”

Baek Woo-jin did not even change his clothes, but simply washed his face and entered the family hall.

“Get up.”

Baek Cheon-hwa was smiling with satisfaction instead of her usual bored expression.

“Good work. “Thanks to your performance, the name of the Baek family resonates once again.”

“Not to that extent.”

“Excessive humility is pride. “The strong have the dignity of the strong.”

Baek Cheon-hwa removed his hand from his chin and raised his head.

“You killed the two lords of the Great Gate and dealt with the Serpent King alone. Yesterday I also caught the first Manticore Rex. “What you did is worthy of praise.”

Baek Chun-hwa was more talkative than usual. It felt like a mixture of a bit of interest and excitement.

“It’s not a scolding. I’m just telling you to reveal yourself a little more. “Your current achievements are worthy of anyone.”

Baek Cheon-hwa looked down at Baek Woo-jin with a deeper smile.

My youngest son, who I didn’t even think of as a throwaway word, grew up quickly and I really liked his personality, so I couldn’t help but find it special.

Moreover, what he did this time went beyond his imagination.

“Did you meet the assassin sent by Jeon Su-hwan?”

“How did you know that?”

“Because that old man has been doing such dirty things for a long time.”

Baek Tian-hwa raised his head and sneered. The ridicule is directed at Dae Yeon-moon-ju, not Baek Woo-jin.

“The name of the assassin sent to you must have been Black Cat or Dark Cat.”

“you’re right. “They said it was a dark cat.”

“At that age, you are the Chinese zodiac and the Four Gods. “It’s not even funny.”

Jeon Su-hwan gave childish titles to his students and subordinates that did not match his powerful military power.

Seeing that he is still like that even though he is over 80 years old makes me feel sorry for him.

“I guess the last line of the article was a warning to the old man, right?”

“That’s right. I thought that no matter how much he was the Lord of the Great Yeonmun, he had to pay back what was done to him. “If I caused any trouble…”

Baek Woo-jin lowered his head with an expression of apology.

“Khahahaha!”

Baek Cheon-hwa swept his forehead and burst into laughter.

“problem? okay. A problem is a problem. “Because it was the best performance.”

“yes?”

“Who could openly give a shit to Daeyeonmunju Jeon Su-hwan? It’s impossible unless you’re the head of a major guild like me. But you did it. “You accomplished something that neither Yeonhwi nor Eunkyung could.”

Baek Cheon-hwa could not hide his laughter even while speaking.

“I don’t know about the stupid public, but the leaders of the large guilds must have realized that you have tarnished the face of Daeyeonmunju.”

“Hmm…”

“If that old man’s personality is the same, he definitely won’t want to leave you alone. But don’t worry. “I’ll keep you from moving.”

The spirit to embrace the world flowed from Baek Cheon-hwa. It seemed like Auror wings were created behind his back.

-Why are you like that? Doesn’t it suit you?

‘I told you this before. They say my father protects those who need him. What I am saying now is that I am helpful to him.

-Tsk, it feels like a contractual relationship rather than a family.

‘okay. yes.’

Baek Woo-jin felt a bitter taste on his tongue at the words of darkness.

– By the way, it’s still strong. But it’s become bearable now, right?

‘okay. It’s different than before.’

Baek Cheon-hwa’s true power cannot be compared to his current momentum, but a year ago, he was suffocated by that level of momentum and could not do anything.

‘I can bear it enough.’

Baek Woo-jin was able to withstand Baek Cheon-hwa’s subversive spirit with ease, as if the one year of training had had an effect.

‘And I can see it.’

-what?

‘How strong is your father? ‘How high is it?’

In the past, I couldn’t even reach the entrance of the mountain, so I couldn’t really understand how strong Baekcheonhwa was.

But now I can get a little idea of how high Baekcheonhwa is.

‘It’s high enough to make you nauseous. But there’s nothing I can’t reach.’

You have darkness and a growing talent. And with luck on my side, I thought there was nothing I couldn’t reach.

“Phew….”

Baek Woo-jin exhaled and raised his head. Baek Cheon-hwa was smiling as if he was pleased with his own growth.

‘Daeyeonmunju is the stepping stone and the real thing is you.’

Baek Woo-jin once again recalled his first vow.

**

Baek Woo-jin stood in the dance hall at night when everyone had gone to bed.

-What are you trying to do?

“You recently trained basic abilities and aurors, developed your spirits, and unlocked your powers.”

-It did. In hindsight, I realized I did a lot.

“I thought it was time to learn the properties of a new sword.”

In the mental world, I learned from Darkness how to use Aurors precisely and further strengthen my familiar sword skills.

Ignis and Sulbing were growing on their own as they ate together every day, and were gradually becoming accustomed to the energy of darkness.

I thought it was time to go back to the basics and practice the properties of the sword.

-If I had hands, I would at least applaud.

“what?”

-It means you want to give a compliment.

The voice of darkness was full of satisfaction.

Knowing what kind of training you should do and what you need to learn is the first step to becoming a master, and Baek Woo-jin has reached that point.

-So what are you trying to learn?

“To learn how to use a sword.”

-Why an art sword?

“When I trained with you in the spirit world, the sword you used had the attribute of an art sword. “I’ve gotten used to it because I’ve seen it before my eyes countless times.”

-Feel so good. good.

The darkness floated around like a cloud. Baek Woo-jin probably got a feel for it, but he knew which sword properties he could learn the fastest.

-It is the best choice. I like it very much.

“Why are you praising me like this?”

-I’m usually like this. Unless you get something out of your damn luck, I’m always on your side.

“It’s petty.”

Baek Woo-jin chuckled and was about to pull out the Dark Sword when a notification sound sounded in his ears.

Ding!

[A new quest has arrived.]

< Special Sword Road >

“quest?”

-It’s suddenly a quest to give something! What is adding characteristics?

Darkness screamed when he saw the added characteristics to the sword in the reward.

“It’s a perfect addition to the new Sword Road.”

-System I can’t live in the same sky as you. I want you…

Baek Woo-jin accepted the quest and dragged away the rampaging darkness.

“yes yes. Because I understand. “Look at your posture.”

**

[Today’s invited guest is spirit master Jeong Geun-ho, who is renowned as a deity in the spirit world!]

Upon the announcer’s introduction, Jeong Geun-ho walked out with a confident smile.

-That kid is in terrible shape.

“Leave it alone. “It’s time to get into form.”

Baek Woo-jin and Heuk-am were lying on their sides watching a variety show called ‘Introducing the Talented Person’ featuring Jeong Geun-ho.

“The future has changed again.”

-what?

“In his previous life, Jeong Geun-ho began to be active at the age of 20. “I think the old man changed his mind because of me and sent him away quickly.”

In his previous life, Jeong Geun-ho had been living as a talented person since he was 20 years old.

However, the current Jeong Geun-ho appeared in the world stronger at a young age. Although it was a little bit, a butterfly effect occurred.

[Ah, so you’ve had a spirit art battle with prosecutor Baek Woo-jin?]

[Of course.]

[What was the result?]

The announcer clenched his fist with an excited expression.

[It was a close match.]

[Wow!]

[We acknowledged each other’s skills and promised to do the next one.]

[Then did you compete again after that?]

[We competed 10 times and they were all similar. We were rivals who inspired each other.]

[Wow!]

People cheered at Jeong Geun-ho’s words. He had a smile on his face as if he was satisfied.

-Is my memory wrong? I remember that guy’s head hit the ground 10 times. You once hit that guy’s head like a drum.

“I was confused for a moment too. Is that correct?”

-That guy is also a great guy in some sense. I envy you for having that kind of self-esteem even after being beaten and humiliated like that.

“That’s great. But I can’t let it go.”

Baek Woo-jin unclenched his fist. Sooner or later, I’ll have to pat him on the back and make sure he’s in order.

“Is there anything you want to see?”

-Try playing number 9. The Jingeom Myeonggeom that appears there is fun.

“Someone might think it’s scrap metal. “True taste…”

Baek Woo-jin sighed and played number 9.

“trot?”

However, in number 9, it was not the entertainment that Darkness wanted, but breaking news.

“ok…?”

The contents of the breaking news shocked Baek Woo-jin.

[Hybrid sword Baek Woo-jin. Destroys the level 5 criminal guild Chemi.]

Baek Woo-jin’s eyes trembled when he saw the subtitles.

“What is this!”

Although he had not left his private training ground for a month, he had no idea what they were talking about when he caught a criminal.

-That’s you!

“omg!”

His own face appeared above the breaking news subtitles.

The face and voice that refused to be interviewed at the association headquarters were completely identical to his own.

“What is this again!”
