I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy

Chapter 26



Episode 26. It is best to break the trap (3)

Baek Woo-jin leaned the bodies of Yoo Jae-woo and Kim Beom-seok against a tree and hid in the bush next to them.

-Someone came. It’s on the right.

‘okay. ‘I feel it.’

As I listened to the darkness, I felt like there was something caught in the airflow. I couldn’t feel it, but I could feel where it was.

-Now! Vera!

As soon as Baek Woo-jin heard Darkness’s words, he used a swordsmanship against empty space. The sword technique cut through the fog and rushed toward the assassin’s neck.

Whoa!

The assassin was shocked and raised his claw to block the sword attack. Seeing as how he prevented the surprise attack, it seemed like he had some special ability.

“Keuuuuuuu!”

The assassin grabbed the wrist that blocked the attack and stepped back like a drunk person.

“Bae Baek Woo-jin?”

Assassin Park Cheol-hyeon’s face turned blue. Baek Woo-jin, who should be dead, is alive, and prosecutors who should be alive are dead. I couldn’t figure out what was happening.

“You know me.”

Baek Woo-jin smiled. Seeing that he recognized his little-known face, it was clear that it had been sent by Baek Seon-na or one of her subordinates.

“Shit!”

Park Cheol-hyeon lowered his posture and raised his claw. My wrist is broken, but if I worry about that now, I might die without being able to do anything.

“How could this guy…”

Park Cheol-hyeon’s eyes shook mercilessly. Now that the situation has changed, I tried to kill Baek Woo-jin, but there was no way in sight. Even though he was a direct descendant of the Shingeombaek family, I couldn’t understand how a 15-year-old could give off that kind of energy.

“Ugh!”

Park Cheol-hyeon retreated into the fog. His body assimilated into the surrounding colors and disappeared. The plan is to use stealth to surprise Baek Woo-jin.

‘That guy is dangerous!’

After using stealth, Park Cheol-hyeon moved behind Baek Woo-jin. After concentrating his aura on the muscles of his lower body and Chloe, he leaped like a leopard towards Baek Woo-jin’s heart.

Sigh!

Park Cheol-hyeon jumped out like a spring and stabbed Baek Woo-jin’s heart and neck with his claw.

‘it’s over!’

Just when he thought the claw had touched Baek Woo-jin’s back, a creepy voice sounded in Park Cheol-hyun’s ears.

“I can see everything.”

Park Cheol-hyeon made eye contact with Baek Woo-jin. His eyes were sunk as deep as the deep sea. It was an omnipotent look that saw everything.

Sigh!

Baek Woo-jin avoided Park Cheol-hyun’s claw by taking a step to the side and then assumed a stance of foot sword fighting.

Absolutely!

Black sparks flew out, and a strange pressure flowed from Baek Woo-jin’s scabbard. His sword seemed to be sucking in the air.

“Shit!”

Park Cheol-hyeon had a feeling that he could not avoid Baek Woo-jin’s attack and prepared the strongest defense by crossing his claws in pairs.

Quaaaaa!

The black king bullet that came out of Baek Woo-jin’s sword shattered Park Cheol-hyeon’s claw and cut his entire chest.

“Wow…”

Park Cheol-hyeon spewed out blood and fell backwards like a log. He was killed by the Black King’s bullet.

“Huh…”

Baek Woo-jin shook off the remaining dirt on his sword and put it into its sheath.

-No matter how much of a specialty you are at hiding, you can’t believe you’re using your discovered abilities again. What a stupid guy.

“It’s easy to counter an assassin’s attack if you know when it’s coming.

-I told you where that guy was. Why are you acting so proud?

“You too are one of my abilities.”

-That’s true, but…

Baek Woo-jin wiped his forehead and smiled at Darkness. The way he discovered Park Cheol-hyeon’s hiding place was thanks to his ability to sense darkness.

For the darkness that could even detect Moon Ju-young’s location, finding out Park Cheol-hyeon’s location was like a piece of cake.

-What are you going to do now?

“Because I can’t stand still after being hit hard. “I have to hit Baek Seon-ah until the back of her head breaks.”

-You mean right away?

“No, you can never win now.”

Baek Woo-jin smiled bitterly. Baek Seon-ah’s strength is in the mid-5th grade. It will take quite a bit of time and effort to defeat her.

-Then, Baek Seon-ah might continue to interfere with your training.

“We have to stop that.”

-how?

“You’ll find out when you get home. Because there will probably be a summons.”

Baek Woo-jin grinned as he predicted what would happen upon returning to the family. Something very interesting is going to happen.

-Anyway, they don’t say it all at once with a sneer.

“To put it bluntly, it’s not fun. “I have things to do now.”

Baek Woo-jin turned his shoulders and headed forward again.

-What on earth is at the end of this place?

“Level 3 monsters and flowers.”

-Monsters aside. flower?

-okay. There are red flowers.

**

Because the mission was a mission, Baek Woo-jin moved toward the end of the rift change zone, catching the remaining monsters and eliminating dangerous plants and traps.

“hmm.”

Baek Woo-jin’s steps, which had not stopped even when catching a monster, stopped for the first time. His gaze was directed towards the hill above the brown swamp.

“That’s the red flower I was talking about.”

Baek Woo-jin pointed to a red flower visible on the hill. It was a beautiful flower with eight overlapping bright red leaves.

-That’s…

“Do you know?”

-Yes, we call him Joo Yang-hwa.

“uh? We also call it Joo Yang-hwa, right? Although it will become known eight years later.”

It was surprising that the names of the two plants, such as the Acanthacea plant and the Euphorbia flower, were the same as World of Darkness.

“Darkness. “Aren’t these things coming over from where you were?”

-Maybe so. The appearance and characteristics of the monsters are also the same as the world I was born in.

“I guess I’ll have to look into it in detail.”

Baek Woo-jin thought that he would have to participate in transfer sooner or later. If you go there, you will be able to find out if there is really a connection between the world of darkness and this world.

“Then do you know how to use that flower?”

-Of course.

Baek Woo-jin looked at Joo Yang-hwa again. Right now, that flower doesn’t even have a name, but it’s a rare elixir that you won’t be able to get 8 years from now even if you save up money.

-The main flower can only be picked at sunset or sunrise, not now. If you pick it now, it means nothing.

“that’s right. “I know.”

As Heukam said, juniper flowers can only be collected when the color of the flower turns orange at sunrise or sunset. If you pull it out now, it will turn into powder and fly away.

“There’s still a lot of time left, so I’ll take care of the monsters.”

Baek Woo-jin dipped his feet into the swamp.

Boogggg.

As soon as my feet touched, bubbles began to rise from the swamp. The bubble grew bigger and bigger, and something huge rose up.

Coo coo coo coo.

The monster that appeared was a mud golem that was over 3 meters tall and covered in mud all over its body.

“Choooooo.”

As it is a low-level golem, it is slow, but has strong destructive power and excellent regenerative power. It is a monster that cannot be ignored.

-The monster guarding this place was a mud golem.

“okay. “Those two.”

-Do you even know their hacks?

“I don’t know what it is, but there is one nucleus in my right thigh and one nucleus in my left arm.”

-It’s very free. It’s free.

Baek Woo-jin pulled out his Hwiyeon sword and waited for the mud golems to come out to the ground.

“Churu.”

Baek Woo-jin easily dodged the fist swung by the mud golem that came up to the ground.

Quang!

The ground that was hit by the mud golem’s fist was deeply dug up. If you ignore it as mud, it will quickly turn into pancakes.

Sigh!

Baek Woo-jin cut the golem’s right thigh with a sword technique. I felt something very small and hard caught on the golem’s thigh. It was the core of a golem.

Grrrr.

The mud golem, whose core was shattered, trembled and collapsed into mud itself.

-You’re lucky.

Baek Woo-jin did not respond to the darkness’s words and just stared blankly at his sword.

-What are you doing?

“I think it will be good training if you do well.”

-what?

“The mud golem’s body has mud flowing down, so I think it will help catch the sword. It regenerates right away, so there is no need to fix it, and since you attack, you can also practice footwork. “It’s a natural training ground.”

-Crazy…

Darkness was speechless. I couldn’t understand what was in Baek Woo-jin’s head that made him think like that.

-So you’re going to play with a golem that knows the location of the core and can correct it?

“No, I will train.”

-Aren’t you really crazy?

“Hey look.”

Baek Woo-jin stood in front of the second mud golem.

Coo!

Baek Woo-jin dodged the mud golem’s fist and then used a vertical slash towards its body.

Sigh!

The vertical cut created a long line on the mud golem’s body. The line was not straight but crooked.

“look. “When I just use a vertical slash in the air, it seems to go straight, but it gets caught in the mud, so it’s twisted like that.”

-uh?

“There’s still time until sunset anyway, so it wouldn’t be a bad idea to practice until that line is straight.”

-what?

Heukam honestly thought that this was a crazy person doing something strange again. However, seeing the trajectory of the sword being swung, it seemed like really good training.

Sigh!

Baek Woo-jin threw a horizontal slash at the mud golem. A straight line appeared on the golem’s body.

“Because horizontal cutting is highly skilled. “It creates a straight line like that.”

-I think the trigram is okay…

“Really?”

Baek Woo-jin grinned and used a vertical slash at the golem. The road is misaligned due to the flowing mud. But I knew how to fix it.

-It may seem crazy, but I don’t think it’s a bad practice.

“I’ll do it until sunset.”

-Do it like that. I will look at it too.

“okay.”

Baek Woo-jin concentrated all his concentration and used a vertical slash towards the mud golem. After dodging the mud golem’s fist, I plunged my sword into its thigh.

“Even the stab is shaky. “It means my training is not enough.”

-The best advantage of this practice is that you can immediately find out what your problem is.

“Now I admit it. haha!”

-If you are going to do it anyway, be sure to decide on the properties of the sword.

“I thought about that before. Vertical cuts are fast and heavy, and thrusts are fast and accurate.

-Then it’s Gwaewa Jeong in the middle of Kwaewa. Swing it with your will.

“okay.”

Since we have received the approval of darkness, there is nothing to worry about. I used vertical cuts and thrusts with all my concentration.

“Choooooo.”

Because the mud golem immediately regenerated his wounds, Baek Woo-jin was able to continue swinging his sword without stopping. It was truly the best training partner.

-The left angle shakes.

Heukam had already assimilated into Baek Woo-jin and was pointing out Geomro’s shortcomings.

The two were so focused on training that they continued to swing their swords without even noticing how much time was passing.

– Baek Woo-jin!

“huh?”

Baek Woo-jin, who was only looking at the mud golem, came to his senses at the sound of a dark voice.

-You crazy guy! The sun has completely set! The time has passed to pick out the main flower!

“okay?”

Baek Woo-jin did not react much to the words of darkness. Joo Yang-hwa is good, but the training I’m doing now was really fun. It seemed like just a little more time and vertical cutting and stabbing would reach a new level.

“You can pick marigolds at sunrise.”

Baek Woo-jin answered simply and used a vertical slash on the mud golem again.

-This is the first time in my life that I have felt sorry for a mud golem. Huh…

The mud golem had already been training for 8 hours and was dealing with a crazy guy. It seemed like tears, not mud, were flowing from the mud golem’s eyes.

-Golem. I’m sorry…

**

-Gasp!

The darkness was assimilated by Baek Woo-jin and fell into a trance and then woke up. I couldn’t even tell how much time had passed. All I knew was that the sun was rising.

-Hmm…

Unlike himself, Baek Woo-jin was still swinging his sword in a trance. The sight of dodging the golem’s fist as if possessed and then using vertical cuts and stabs was natural itself.

-Definitely…

Baek Woo-jin’s vertical cuts and stabs were completely different from before. It has reached almost the same level as horizontal cutting.

-I shouldn’t disturb you.

A trance is not a moment that comes easily. Even if we have to wait until sunset again, we must not disturb now.

Whoa!

As the sunrise began, a white energy like dawn fog gathered from Baek Woo-jin’s sword. I felt a heavy pressure like a mountain from the white energy.

-crazy!

It’s a new sword. Baek Woo-jin pioneered a new sword road with the will of speed and heaviness in just one night.

Gooooo!

Baek Woo-jin fell into a trance and condensed white energy into his sword. He struck down the enormous force contained in his sword.

Kwaaaaang!

The white energy that exploded from Baek Woo-jin’s sword crushed the mud golem and split the swamp behind it in half.

[The state of hyper-concentration has been lifted.]

Only then did the light return to Baek Woo-jin’s eyes. He stared blankly at the hologram window that appeared before his eyes.

[You have completed the quest < The Basics Until the End >.]
