I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy

Episode 45 Island of Artisans (2)

‘He resembles his father…’

The moment I looked into Kim Jang-hoon’s eyes, I felt similar to being in front of Baek Cheon-hwa. It’s not like force.

I could feel the majesty of someone who walked one path and reached the peak.

“This is Baek Woo-jin.”

“Baek Woo-jin? “I think I’ve heard of it…”

Kim Jang-hoon frowned and scratched his chin.

“grandfather!”

“Is it Inaya?”

Kim Jang-hoon was startled and took a step back. He has now discovered that Seo In-ah exists.

“This is the person who saved me. “I told you I gave you Hwiyeon Sword!”

“ah!”

Kim Jang-hoon slapped his palm as if he had thought of something.

“I was wondering where that energy comes from at that age, and it turns out he’s the youngest of the ghost family.”

“Ha, Grandfather. “You can’t say that in front of Woojin…”

Seo In-ah grabbed Kim Jang-hoon’s sleeve while looking at Baek Woo-jin.

“it’s okay.”

“No, the Baek family is not important now, but what are you? “Why on earth did that iron react to you?”

“I don’t know either. When I heard the sound of the hammer, an Auror suddenly woke up…”

“An Auror woke up?”

“My aurors moved on their own.”

“Hmm…”

Kim Jang-hoon turned around and looked at the metal he had been hitting just a moment ago.

‘Darkness. ‘What were you trying to say about that iron?’

-It’s not exact, but it might be the metal that made me.

‘what?’

-Just as your auror arose automatically, I also resonated with that metal.

‘Huh…’

If what Darkness says is true, that metal is not from this world. It is an item from the world of darkness.

“Why did you come here?”

“I came to ask you to repair my sword.”

“repair? “Hwiyeongeom’s?”

“yes.”

Baek Woo-jin pulled out the Hwiyeon sword and showed that the blade was damaged.

“Give it to me.”

Kim Jang-hoon received the Hwiyeon sword and looked at the blade up and down.

“I ran into a cutting auror.”

“How did you do that…”

Kim Jang-hoon knew what happened just by looking at the damaged part of the sword.

“What was the opponent’s sword?”

“It was a red spirit sword.”

“Red spirit sword!”

Kim Jang-hoon’s bewildered eyes hardened. Jeoknyeonggeom is a sword made by Hwang Namhoe, the commander of the world.

I couldn’t help but be surprised that Hwiyeongeom survived after colliding with that sword.

“What happened to the Red Spirit Sword?”

“It’s broken.”

“Broken? Red spirit sword? Hahaha!”

Kim Jang-hoon bent down to his waist and burst into laughter. It felt so good that tears welled up in my eyes.

“Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk at hearing that old man, I’m going to be a bit upset.”

Kim Jang-hoon smiled slyly and touched the blade of the Hwiyeon sword.

Like the prosecutors, Kim Jang-hoon had a rivalry with Hwang Nam-hoe, a fellow world expert.

“It’s amazing that you can break the Jeokryeong Sword with the Hwiyeon Sword. “There was a reason he had that momentum at that age.”

“I was lucky.”

“luck? “The Red Spirit Sword is not something that can be broken by luck.”

Kim Jang-hoon smiled happily and put the Hwiyeon sword into its sheath.

When I heard that he broke Hwang Nam-hoe’s sword with the sword he made, I kept laughing.

When I first saw Baek Woo-jin, I was already starting to like him.

“I guess that’s why I brought this to you to be fixed.”

“That’s right. “I’ll give you as much repair money as you want…”

“There’s no need for repair fees.”

“yes?”

“I’ll just do the repairs. I’ll give you another sword if you want. Instead…”

Kim Jang-hoon pointed to the round metal with his finger.

“Help me. “Please.”

**

“Is this going to work?”

“okay. “Can you operate the Aurors there?”

“I will try.”

What Kim Jang-hoon asked Baek Woo-jin to do was to help the metal react in the blacksmith shop.

‘Darkness. ‘Try appraising that metal.’

-I already did it. But…

[???]

A window filled with question marks appeared in front of Baek Woo-jin. It meant that emotions could not be felt.

It seemed like the system was intentionally trying to withhold information from darkness.

‘It’s a metal with many secrets.’

-That’s right.

Darkness also sighed as if he was frustrated.

“Hey…”

“What?”

“Can you tell me where you got that metal?”

“Seogongmyeong said he got it somewhere on the front line, but I’m not sure.”

Seo Gong-myeong is the guild master of Arcane. He won’t lie, so that metal is probably a reward from the dungeon or monster ahead. That too at the highest level.

“Then let’s begin.”

“yes.”

Okay!

When Kim Jang-hoon hit the metal with a hammer, Danjeon’s aura surged. The darkness also flinched.

Ugh.

The metal of Lasadum’s auror’s dark energy was being connected by Kim Jang-hoon’s hammering.

“also!”

A smile appeared on Kim Jang-hoon’s lips. The metal that had not listened to me until now was giving me permission.

Ugh.

Baek Woo-jin watched Kim Jang-hoon’s reaction and began to use not only the aura of Lasadum but also the energy of darkness.

They are trying to use this opportunity to adapt to the energy of darkness.

If you become familiar with the energy of darkness, you can increase the size of darkness or use other techniques after Seonya.

Whoops!

Whoops!

A satisfied smile appeared on Kim Jang-hoon’s lips.

Thanks to Baek Woo-jin, this strange metal was following his will like an obedient puppy.

“really sorry. “I never thought something like this would happen…”

“It’s okay.”

Baek Woo-jin waved his hand at Seo In-ah, who felt sorry. Obtaining Kim Jang-hoon’s sword was beneficial, but just being here was helping him.

‘I needed training to use Aurors and accept your energy, but I never thought I’d get to do it here.’

-If you take this opportunity to get used to my energy, you will be less likely to stumble and faint.

‘I’ll never faint again because of you!’

-joy. Easier said than done.

In fact, the darkness was admiring Baek Woo-jin. There was really no end to his desire to improve as he trained and adapted to this situation.

“Isn’t it hot?”

“Don’t worry about me, just focus on hammering.”

“Hahaha! upstart!”

Kim Jang-hoon grabbed the hammer again and laughed out loud. It was the first time anyone had ever said something like that to me.

It was harsh, but I liked it.

“good night.”

Kim Jang-hoon’s eyes changed. Now I decided to hit the hammer without worrying about anything else.

Whoops!

Whoops!

The sound of Kim Jang-hoon’s hammer was heard. It was as consistent as when I first came here, yet filled with soul and power.

‘I’ll start too.’

-Just do what you’re doing right.

‘Of course.’

Baek Woo-jin closed his eyes. The sound of Kim Jang-hoon’s hammer was heard loudly, as if it was pounding his heart.

Whoops!

Wooooow.

The aura of Lasadum and the energy of darkness that arose at the sound of the hammer were very slowly guided.

He used the energies in detail, as if showing the way to a child.

Okay!

The sound of Kim Jang-hoon’s hammer was like a surprise to Baek Woo-jin. I was able to move the aura and the energy of darkness more quickly and accurately.

Ding!

How much time has passed? I opened my eyes as I heard the sound of a holographic window appearing.

[Your understanding of aurors has increased.]

[Your mana ability has increased by 1.]

[Your five-star ability has increased by 1.]

[Your adaptability to the energy of darkness has increased.]

[Your affinity with darkness has increased.]

As soon as I saw the hologram window, my fist clenched. I couldn’t help but smile because the training method was correct.

“uh?”

Baek Woo-jin realized that the hammer sound had stopped only after the hologram window disappeared.

Kim Jang-hoon put down his hammer and was looking at Baek Woo-jin with strange eyes.

“You’re a bit different for someone who comes from a ghost family.”

“I hear things like that.”

“Cluck.”

Kim Jang-hoon smiled and stood up.

“That’s it for today.”

“Aren’t you adding more?”

“It’s not something that can be done in a few days. “I’ll show you a place to rest, and I’ll see you again at dawn tomorrow.”

**

“Am I really going to be okay? “The youngest member of the Baek family has not left the island for three weeks.”

A trembling voice came out of the man’s mouth.

-Did you install it?

A hoarse voice came from the cell phone.

“Ah yes. I did.”

-Then it doesn’t matter. If you get in my way, just kill me. Have you figured out the location of the ‘Incarnation of Fire’?

“That’s one of the two places.”

-2 places?

“Because the old man didn’t tell me exactly…”

-You idiot! I have no choice but to torture him. Time is important.

“You’re so stubborn that torture won’t work. Instead…”

The man continued, biting his lip.

“Here is Arcane Gilma’s only daughter, whom the old man cherishes like a granddaughter. If we take that child hostage, we will definitely be able to find out the location of the Avatar.”

-You mean Seo-in?

“yes. you’re right.”

-This is a blessing in disguise. I could use you as a hostage. Tsk tsk.

The phone ended with the sound of metal grinding laughter.

“Hmm…”

After hanging up the phone, the man looked around and went down to the blacksmith shop at the bottom of the mountain.

**

A month has passed since I entered the Artisan Island.

Baek Woo-jin spent most of his time at the blacksmith shop, except for the time he spent training Hong A-ra.

Thanks to this, I was able to adapt to the energy of darkness a little, and my Auror senses and control abilities greatly increased.

As Baek Woo-jin changed, the metal also changed, and the shape of the sword was soon established.

As the sword took shape, Kim Jang-hoon was losing his human form. As time passed, the areas under his eyes darkened and his cheeks became sunken.

-There isn’t much left now.

‘okay. It will be completed soon.’

Baek Woo-jin’s spirit greatly increased thanks to the sound of Kim Jang-hoon’s hammer.

Now it was possible to almost accurately find the locations of the unmanned people hiding on the island.

“You can go out from today.”

Kim Jang-hoon raised his hammer and opened his mouth.

“yes?”

“Thanks to you, I have become accustomed to the hammer on this railway. You can continue your training from now on. “It’s been a really hard time.”

Kim Jang-hoon’s eyes looking at Baek Woo-jin were full of gratitude.

For a month, Kim Jang-hoon also became attached to Baek Woo-jin.

“it’s okay. “I also want to see the sword completed.”

“Hehe, this will be my last, so it wouldn’t be a bad thing to have someone watching.”

“The last one?”

“Now I’m going to hand over the blacksmith shop to Youngjin.”

“Aren’t you correcting it yet? A little more…”

“Yekki! Hey!”

Kim Jang-hoon waved his hand with a humorous smile.

“It’s been 20 years since Youngjin came to work for me. “He’s 45 years old, so it’s time to hand him over.”

“Oh, that was it.”

Baek Woo-jin smiled. It was not a step down, but a succession.

“20 years is quite fast in the world of artisans.”

“She may be a little impatient, but she is talented. “You have to fix that impatience yourself.”

“But Youngjin isn’t here today.”

Park Young-jin always cleaned up the blacksmith shop early in the morning and watched Kim Jang-hoon work from the side, but he was not seen today.

“He said he wasn’t feeling well. “I told him to go and rest as there were a few days left until completion.”

“okay.”

Baek Woo-jin thought he should stop by Park Young-jin’s room after work today and check on his condition.

“Then let’s begin.”

“yes!”

Whoops!

Kim Jang-hoon started hammering. Baek Woo-jin also closed his eyes and began to use auror and dark energy.

‘hmm?’

When I was using the Auror for a while, I felt a deadly mana coming from outside.

It was mana that I could feel because my senses were very sensitive right now.

‘Darkness. ‘I think there’s something going on outside.’

-Did you actually feel it?

Darkness was astonished that Baek Woo-jin sensed an enemy at this distance. It didn’t make sense since it wasn’t a distance that could be felt at his level.

Baek Woo-jin looked at Kim Jang-hoon banging the hammer for a moment and then left the blacksmith shop.

‘Was there a battle?’

-It seems like people with abilities have invaded from outside the island. The talented people who protected the island are scattered in all directions to prevent invasion. The guardian here also went out.

‘Then I’d rather stay here.’

The number and level of talented people protecting the island are quite high. I thought it would be better to prepare for something unexpected here.

bang!

Quaaaang!

Smoke was billowing from all over the place along with a huge noise. This meant that the battle had begun in earnest.

“oh my god!”

“What is going on?”

Seo In-ah and Hong A-ra, who were together in the back, ran out.

“It looks like someone broke in.”

“It doesn’t make sense…”

Seo In-ah muttered, looking at the rising smoke. It is true that there are many treasures here, but there are also many escorts.

Unless you were a very large guild, you would only lose money if you hit it, so I didn’t understand.

“If you look at the numbers, it’s a group. “It’s also a guild.”

The names of several criminal guilds flashed through Baek Woo-jin’s mind. If there were that many people, it would definitely be a guild whose name they would know.

“Mr. Ina. Youngjin will be in the room. “Please call me.”

“Ah yes!”

Seo In-ah entered Park Young-jin’s room and immediately came out shaking her head.

“You’re not there!”

“yes?”

I couldn’t understand where the sick person went without even telling me.

“Well, for now, Ina, please go into the blacksmith shop with Ara. Moon Joo-young. Protect the blacksmith shop so that no one can enter it.”

“All right.”

“What about Woojin?”

“I will be in the front.”

Baek Woo-jin picked up a sword standing in the blacksmith shop and put it on his waist.

“Someone is coming this way.”

Baek Woo-jin’s new senses caught beings that even the island’s guardians had not noticed.
