Chapter 41
Episode 41 The first swordsman (2)
– It is called Geomgui, but it is also called Dugui and sometimes it is called Changgui. There are various names.
‘Could it be that the name changes depending on the weapon used?’
-Accurate.
‘Why do you have the title of ghost? ‘Are you crazy about murder?’
I couldn’t figure out why the strange title of “ghost” followed me around.
– Far from it. They are called ghosts because they have excellent practical skills.
‘what?’
I didn’t understand. If he is called that because he is strong, then why is he called the Sword Demon when there are many cool names like Sword King or Sword Saint Sword Hu?
-That’s because the strong methods are different.
‘method?’
-The clairvoyant has a special talent for understanding the enemy’s habits, patterns, and behavior. It is a combat characteristic that predicts where the enemy will attack next and what kind of herbal weapon the enemy will use.
‘It was called that because it understood everything about the enemy as if it were a ghost.’
-Yes.
Baek Woo-jin chuckled because it was a little different from what he expected.
‘Something feels a little empty.’
-nothingness? Let me put it more simply. Your brothers are much stronger than those of the same level, right?
‘okay. ‘I will win even one level higher.’
-The same goes for that woman. If your abilities are the same, your brother will be able to beat you too.
‘what?’
-If that woman develops the same level of ability as your older brother Baek Myung-hoon and then spar with him, there’s a good chance she’ll win.
‘Huh…’
Sometimes, there are people who overcome the power of a family or guild and rise to the top with their natural talent. Hong A-ra was a person with such talent.
‘It’s like winning a lottery ticket without scratching it.’
-The projectile grows quickly, so there will be no problem if you start now.
‘Then you have to catch it no matter what.’
Baek Woo-jin ran in front of Hong In-su and Hong A-ra and blocked their path.
“I have something to tell you. “Can you give me a moment?”
“Oh, of course.”
Baek Woo-jin sat the two people down at the table again.
“Hmm…”
I looked at the two people. Since my current self-image is very good, I thought asking directly would be the most effective.
“Are you planning on joining the Baek family?”
“yes?”
“What is that…”
Hong In-su and Hong A-ra covered their mouths in embarrassment. Moon Ju-young was also surprised and looked back at Baek Woo-jin.
“Are you kidding me?”
“I’m serious.”
“I am a person who is old and lacking in ability. “Why would you accept me…”
He clearly said this while looking at Hong A-ra, but he looked confused, thinking that Hong In-soo had chosen him.
“no. “Not your uncle, but your daughter.”
“That’s right. I thought so too. ha ha ha!”
At Baek Woo-jin’s firm words, Hong In-su scratched the back of his head and stepped back.
He looked a little disappointed, but quickly recovered and pushed Hong Ara forward.
“Ara. You are calling. “Answer me quickly.”
“I’m not even officially qualified yet.”
“Ara has a special talent. “I feel like a fraud when I say this, but it’s true.”
“Maybe you misunderstood something?”
Hong A-ra looked dumbfounded, as if she couldn’t help this situation.
‘Are you sure?’
-You can know for sure if you use your auror. Ask for my wrist.
“If it’s not rude, may I hold your wrist for a moment?”
“yes.”
“thank you.”
Hong Ara casually held out her hand. It meant that he completely believed in himself.
-Send an Auror to the place I’m talking about.
Baek Woo-jin followed the words of the darkness and moved his auror to examine Hong A-ra’s skeleton and muscles.
‘how is it?’
-There’s no way I saw it wrong. It’s definitely delayed.
Baek Woo-jin nodded and let go of Hong A-ra’s wrist.
“I would like to have Hong A-ra as my personal prosecutor, not the Baek family’s prosecutor.”
“Are you serious?”
Hong In-su jumped up and screamed. Becoming a prosecutor rather than a prosecutor of the Baek family was no different from turning my life around.
“That’s right.”
“wait a minute.”
Unlike Hong In-su, who was excited, Hong A-ra calmly raised her hand.
“Can you tell me what talents I have?”
“It is a talent for combat.”
Baek Woo-jin was wondering what to do, but when he saw Hong A-ra’s straight eyes, he decided to tell her the truth.
“Battle? “Me?”
Confusion appeared on Hong A-ra’s face, as if she had expected something different. It was an expression that never imagined that the answer would be a battle.
“What kind of training have you received so far?”
“Basic things. It’s like I can feel my breathing, stamina and mana…”
“Have you ever held a sword or weapon?”
“no. “Not yet…”
“Then it’s natural that you don’t feel it yet. “If you get trained here, you’ll figure it out in no time.”
“Hmm…”
Hong Ara was wondering whether she should believe this or not. I know it was a good deal, but it was too sudden.
“We will treat you with the best treatment. “I have a private gym, so no one will disturb me.”
“That…”
“Ara. What are you worrying about? “Even if no one else knows, you can trust him!”
“I know that. But it’s too sudden.”
Hong In-su scolded the hesitant Hong A-ra. Because it was true that it was sudden, Baek Woo-jin closed his mouth and waited for the conversation between the two to end.
“I will do as you say, Master. “I hope you aren’t too disappointed.”
After 10 minutes of persuasion from Hong In-soo, Hong A-ra accepted Baek Woo-jin’s proposal.
Baek Woo-jin gave Hong In-su and Hong A-ra a trusting smile.
“That will never happen.”
**
“Phew….”
A frustrated sigh flowed from the mouth of Kang Woon-chan, vice-captain of Agumdae.
“It’s more sudden than a lightning strike in a dry sky.”
Yesterday, an order to vacate the inspection was issued. I immediately went to the Public Prosecutor’s Office, but was told that there was no way because it was an order given directly by the head of the family.
Ageomdae was no different from losing their home overnight.
“older brother. “It’s all because of him!”
Seong Min-ho, the second leader, gritted his teeth and approached Kang Un-chan.
“Baek Woo-jin. “That little bastard would have begged the matriarch to take over!”
“Hmm…”
Kang Un-chan also knew. Yesterday, Baek Woo-jin came back after making an effort, and an order was given to vacate the police station that day, so there is only one culprit.
“You asked the team members to leave and now you’re even touching the sword? “You damn bastard…”
Seong Min-ho cursed at Baek Woo-jin, forgetting that they had started the fight first.
“Ugh!”
Seong Min-ho screamed and smashed Geomgak’s warehouse.
“Don’t act rashly and stay still. “You have to hold on until the young lady comes out.”
Because Baek Seon-ah and Ageom Daeju were in Myeongbyeok-dong, Kang Un-chan was the actual leader. But there was nothing that could be done. Frustration rose up to my throat.
“older brother. How about this? Because I use a dark mirror amazingly. “Not him…”
“Quiet.”
Kang Woon-chan silenced Seong Min-ho at the sound of a voice coming from outside the police station. After a while, Baek Woo-jin, the culprit who kicked them out, was seen approaching.
“You haven’t emptied it yet?”
Baek Woo-jin walked to the center of the training hall, passing the swordsman prosecutors who were gathering their luggage. Moon Ju-young and Jeon Jun-hyuk followed behind him.
“I gave you one day, but you still haven’t emptied it. What did you do? “I think the slug wants to be friends.”
Baek Woo-jin’s voice contained a cold mockery.
“Your sister is still being punished. Did it really have to be like this?”
“Did you have to do this?”
Baek Woo-jin imitated Kang Woon-chan’s words and burst into laughter.
“Your master tried to kill me because he thought I might be a threat to him. “If I had been even a little weak, I would have died.”
As Baek Woo-jin became angry, a storm-like force flowed from his body.
“But are you whining that I stole some swords? Because I’m holding back from wanting to get rid of you all. “Get out now.”
Baek Woo-jin’s strong momentum caused cold sweat to break out on Kang Woon-chan’s forehead. I know that the immediate descendants of the Baek family are all monsters, but there was something different about the aura the man in front of me gave off.
I began to understand that Baek Seon-ah was trying to deal with Baek Woo-jin before he grew older.
“You will regret your choice today the moment you come out.”
“I don’t know why there are so many people who say they regret it. “I’m not interested, so go.”
Baek Woo-jin waved his hand as if he didn’t want to see it.
“Let’s go…”
Kang Woon-chan’s shoulders trembled in humiliation and then he turned around. Other prosecutors followed suit, and Seong Min-ho was the last to move.
“Ugh!”
Jeon Jun-hyuk, who was following Baek Woo-jin, bumped his shoulder with Seong Min-ho, who moved last, and fell.
“I’m sorry.”
“Okay.”
Jeon Jun-hyuk lowered his head and Seong Min-ho lightly raised his hand.
“That bastard…”
It was a normal sight, but Baek Woo-jin clenched his fists to the point of bleeding and walked towards Seong Min-ho.
“What is it?”
“Master Do. I’m fine. It really doesn’t matter…”
“You stay still.”
Baek Woo-jin stopped Jeon Jun-hyuk and looked at Seong Min-ho.
“What are you going to say about bumping my shoulder? “Would you like to at least apologize to that friend?”
Seong Min-ho said sarcastically to Baek Woo-jin.
“What is your name?”
“This is Seong Min-ho, leader of Team 2 of Aggeomdae. “Why is my name…”
“Now I’m the one who’s going to rummage around, so I should at least know his name.”
“What!”
Wow!
Baek Woo-jin activated the black wind and hit Seong Min-ho on the head.
“Kwaaaak!”
Seong Min-ho was unable to overcome the shock due to the extreme pain and fell backwards.
Whoops!
He rushed at Seong Min-ho, who was falling backwards, struck him in the face with his knee, and broke his leg with the sheath of his sword.
“Keuuuuuck!”
“Did you think I didn’t know?”
“What are you doing?”
Kang Woon-chan quickly approached and blocked the space between Baek Woo-jin and Seong Min-ho.
“If you don’t explain it properly, I won’t let this matter go by!”
Kang Woon-chan and the swordsman Ahgeomdae placed their hands on the handle of the sword.
“Moon Joo-young!”
“yes!”
Baek Woo-jin ignored Ah Geom-dae, who was trying to draw his sword, and called Moon Ju-young.
“From now on, cut off the arm of the guy who draws his sword.”
“I will follow your orders.”
A level of murderousness emanated from Moon Ju-young that made one shudder.
“Take a look at this child’s shoulder yourself.”
Baek Woo-jin brought Jeon Jun-hyuk in front of Kang Woon-chan.
“No way….”
Kang Woon-chan placed his hand on Jeon Jun-hyuk’s shoulder and pushed the Auror in. He noticed a gloomy auror clustering around his shoulder.
“This is a dark mirror….”
“That scum used a dark mirror on an ordinary person who wasn’t even a talented person.”
Baek Woo-jin was furious and pointed at Seong Min-ho, who had not yet come to his senses.
“Even though our family is a mess, there is a normal rule that we should not use our powers on innocent people. “From now on, anyone who moves will be considered an accomplice to that guy.”
Baek Woo-jin passed by Kang Woon-chan with cold eyes shining and approached Seong Min-ho.
‘How on earth did you know?’
Moon Joo-young could not take his eyes off Baek Woo-jin while keeping Ageomdae in check. I couldn’t understand how Baek Woo-jin felt about Sung Min-ho’s dark condition, which even he himself had been unaware of.
“How did you not know that…Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Baek Woo-jin stepped on both of Sung Min-ho’s knees and broke his knee bones. It smashed vital parts of his body until he fainted.
“Ugh…”
Kang Un-chan could only watch as his subordinate was being hit. Now that the situation was like this, it was Baek Woo-jin and his guard who ruled this place.
-It’s definitely George.
‘Starting tomorrow, Hong-ah will come, so we have to show these guys clearly. ‘If you touch my person, you will die.’
Baek Woo-jin threw the unconscious Seong Min-ho in front of Kang Woon-chan and coldly opened his mouth.
“Hand that guy over to the court. “I don’t plan on ending it like this.”
“…All right.”
Kang Woon-chan and Ahgeomdae left Chilgeomgak with Seong Min-ho, who had fainted. The quickly disappearing expression of Ageomdae showed his shock towards Baek Woo-jin.
“Master Tao.”
“Stay still.”
Baek Woo-jin used Aura to remove Seong Min-ho’s Aura remaining on Jeon Jun-hyuk’s shoulder.
‘how is it?’
-It was removed well. There will be no aftereffects.
‘Thank goodness.
-Using dark glasses on ordinary people was irredeemable trash. If that auror had been left alone, the child wouldn’t have been able to use his arms.
Dark magic is a terrible and bizarre technique that attacks the inside of the opponent’s body by sending one’s aura into the opponent’s body.
Seong Min-ho was worthy of death for using it on Jeon Jun-hyuk, an ordinary person.
-But how do you know if you used a dark mirror?
‘That guy was secretly using aurors, but the moment he came into contact with Junhyuk, the aurors disappeared. So I was able to find out that he used a dark mirror on Junhyuk.’
-Huh…
An exclamation came from the mouth of darkness. Feeling such a small sense of mana and realizing that he was using a dark mirror, Baek Woo-jin had already gone beyond the talent of a criminal and reached specialness.
“just in case. “Please take Junhyuk to the recovery room.”
“All right.”
Baek Woo-jin sent Moon Joo-young and Jeon Jun-hyuk to the recovery room and looked around Geomgak, which was Baek Seon-ah’s home.
“This is just the beginning.”
**
The next day, Hong Ara returned to Baekga with her luggage.
“This is where you will practice from now on. “It’s called geomgak.”
“Geomgak….”
“We can see from the outside, but we are the only ones who can come inside. “You can rest assured.”
“All right.”
“Then training starts now.”
“yes.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded and took a close look at Hong A-ra’s whole body. He has a good physique, but he hasn’t had proper training.
‘We’ll start by running, right?’
-That child is not as talented as you. There is no need to start with running. First of all…
ding!
As the darkness spoke, a holographic window appeared.
