I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy

Episode 53. Learning elemental arts (2)

-Who is it? The greatest corruption of this era, blessed by the Goddess of Luck and distributed and promoted by the system. Plus…

Yoon Woo-min couldn’t even hear it, but Darkness was muttering endlessly as if he was trying to vent his anger.

“I don’t understand.”

I looked at Baek Woo-jin’s whole body again, wondering if I had seen something wrong, but nothing had changed.

He was overflowing with high-quality auras, had sensitivity to the four major attributes, and even had unrealized potential.

It’s not only unique, but it’s also surprising and absurd.

“Did you eat something wrong when you were young?”

“I’ve never done that.”

Since it had been less than a year since I developed sensitivity, I just said no.

Since Yoon Woo-min’s ability is to understand the truth and lies of an answer, there was no need to say things that were not specifically asked.

‘also.’

Moon Joo-young clenched his fists.

Baek Woo-jin’s talent in spirit magic was enough to surprise even the best spirit masters.

I couldn’t help but laugh at the thought that my choice was right.

“hey.”

Yoon Woo-min frowned and called out Moon Joo-young.

“Ah yes!”

“Why are you laughing so hard!”

“sorry!”

“Tsk.”

Yoon Woo-min looked at Baek Woo-jin after getting irritated with Moon Joo-young.

“Can I learn elemental magic at that level?”

“Hmm…”

Yoon Woo-min scratched his chin.

Since there was already someone teaching, I was planning to kick Baek Woo-jin out regardless of whether he was talented or not.

However, because his condition was so unusual and extraordinary, I became curious.

-This old man is thinking about it.

‘As far as I know, there is no one who has personally recognized this person as his disciple. There were a few people who said they had learned it.’

There were a few spirit masters who said they learned from Yun Woo-min in their past lives, but they did not use the word disciple.

I don’t know, but I think something happened with my first student.

“Please come in at once.”

After finishing his worries, Yoon Woo-min gestured to Baek Woo-jin and entered the gate.

“young master. Success!”

Moon Joo-young burst into cheerful laughter as if he had become Yoon Woo-min’s student.

“Not yet. “Because you just asked me to come in.”

Baek Woo-jin gathered his thoughts and followed Yoon Woo-min inside.

-It’s bigger inside than I thought.

‘okay. It’s wider than it looks from the outside. ‘Have they expanded the space?’

The space inside the wall was considerably larger than it looked from the outside.

It seemed like the yard could be used as a training ground.

“Sit down there.”

Yoon Woo-min handed over two plastic chairs.

“thank you.”

Baek Woo-jin gave Moon Ju-young a chair and sat down in his own chair.

“Are you really the prosecutors of the Baek family?”

The swordsmen of Shingeombaekga that Yoon Woo-min had met so far were cold-hearted, ignored others, and only pursued strength.

I didn’t feel any such force or attitude from the guys in front of me.

“you’re right. “I am the youngest of the Baek family.”

“Huh….”

Yoon Woo-min shook his head as if he was embarrassed.

“How did you know you had talent and try to find the best spiritist?”

“I wasn’t trying to find the best spiritist. “Actually…”

Baek Woo-jin honestly said that it was Moon Ju-young, not him, who was trying to find the best spiritist.

“There really are all kinds of people.”

Yoon Woo-min burst out laughing while looking at Moon Joo-young.

“The reason they came to see me is that they are interesting people….”

Yoon Woo-min was inclined to accept Baek Woo-jin.

I liked Baek Woo-jin’s honest and confident attitude and his uncharacteristic humility.

‘I also want to see how that talent blossoms.’

The biggest reason was, of course, Baek Woo-jin’s talent.

Yun Woo-min had never seen a spirit master with talent in all four major attributes.

I wanted to see what Baek Woo-jin could achieve.

“good night. “I will teach you about elemental magic.”

“thank you.”

Baek Woo-jin immediately stood up and bowed his head.

“Can I call you Master?”

“As I said before, we do not accept disciples. “I’ll just teach you.”

“All right.”

Baek Woo-jin looked at Yoon Woo-min and nodded.

“Then I will call you old man.”

“Do whatever you want.”

“yes. “Elderly.”

“For now, I will send your escort back.”

Yoon Woo-min pointed at Moon Ju-young and waved his hand.

“In my house, you have to do your own work. It means that you have to do all the cooking, laundry, and cleaning. “The other guy here is doing the same thing, so there is no exception even if you are a direct descendant of the Baek family.”

“All right.”

“huh?”

Yoon Woo-min looked at Baek Woo-jin with a puzzled face.

Children from famous families frown or complain when asked to do chores, but Baek Woo-jin had none of that.

‘That’s just the gum.’

Practitioners of the White House have to do everything themselves except for the food. Baek Woo-jin in his past life lived that kind of life for 20 years, so he can do that without turning a blind eye.

“Then I will go back. “I will send your luggage right away.”

“Ara, please train me well.”

“yes! Elderly. “Please take good care of me, Master.”

Moon Ju-young finished saying hello and left without looking back.

It’s not that there is no affection.

I absolutely trust Baek Woo-jin.

“No…”

Yoon Woo-min’s eyes widened.

Baek Woo-jin and Moon Ju-young’s reactions and execution speed were such that they were bewildered as they gave the instructions.

“What are you guys really doing?”

**

Yoon Woo-min took Baek Woo-jin to the garden behind the mansion.

In the garden, a young man who appeared to be in his late teens was sitting cross-legged, and in front of him was a red cloud that was changing its shape.

“This is a guy who has been learning elemental arts from me for a few years now. “You don’t have to be friendly, but just say hello.”

“yes.”

“Geunho.”

The young man opened his eyes at Yoon Woo-min’s call.

‘also. It was Jeong Geun-ho.’

Baek Woo-jin looked at the young man who turned his head and nodded.

-Do you know this guy?

‘He’s the one who will later grow to the level of Red Yeonhwa.’

-If he’s similar to that woman, he must be quite talented.

‘In the future, one intermediate spirit will be summoned for each high-level spirit. It’s amazing. However, other people disliked him because his competitive spirit was as strong as his talent.’

Jeong Geun-ho was famous for his outstanding ability as well as his self-confident personality.

In particular, he had an unlucky desire to win by defeating others at all costs.

“Are you here? “Elderly.”

Jeong Geun-ho also called Yoon Woo-min an elder, not a teacher.

“This guy will also be training together from now on. Just say hello briefly.”

“It’s Jeong Geun-ho.”

“This is Baek Woo-jin.”

Baek Woo-jin introduced himself as stiffly as Jeong Geun-ho.

“Baek Woo-jin?”

Perhaps because Jeong Geun-ho was only training, he did not know anything about Baek Woo-jin.

“This guy is a direct descendant of the Shingeombaek family.”

“Ah…”

Jeong Geun-ho shot an intense look in his eyes when he heard that he was a direct descendant of the Baek family.

It was already an expression that was keeping Baek Woo-jin in check.

“What are your attributes?”

“property?”

“Which attribute is fire, wind, water, and earth?”

“This guy hasn’t confirmed his properties yet. It’s Geunho. “Bring the white wind.”

“All right.”

Jeong Geun-ho brought a white maple leaf from the house and handed it to Yoon Woo-min.

Ugh.

When Yoon Woo-min put elemental power into the leaf, the white maple leaf began to glow.

“Put your hand here.”

“All right.”

Baek Woo-jin placed his hand on the shining maple leaf.

Sigh.

At first, the maple leaves turned ocher.

“It was land.”

Before Jeong Geun-ho finished speaking, the maple leaf was torn into pieces.

“Dual properties? wind?”

That wasn’t all.

The maple leaves froze and then burned and completely turned to ash.

“also.”

Yoon Woo-min nodded.

Just in case, I checked with Baek Wind, and as expected, Baek Woo-jin had the ability to summon all four major spirits.

“Ah…”

Jeong Geun-ho’s eyes trembled mercilessly as if there was an earthquake.

He couldn’t understand whether what he saw was real.

“Oh, old man. Is this really true? This manipulation…”

“That guy can handle all four major attributes. “To be honest, he’s crazy.”

“How could this be…”

Yoon Woo-min looked at Baek Woo-jin with his mouth open in confusion.

Looking at the condition of the leaves, it seemed that not only did they have the four major attributes, but their sensitivity was similar to or higher than mine.

“How can a direct descendant of the Shingeombaek family have such talent in elemental arts…”

Jeong Geun-ho looked at Baek Woo-jin as if he was lost.

It felt like a fire was burning inside.

“Geun-ho, finish your training and then you come here.”

Yoon Woo-min left Jeong Geun-ho, who was gritting his teeth, and took Baek Woo-jin to the other side.

“I don’t know if you know, but spirits are not summoned overnight.”

“I know.”

Baek Woo-jin also knew a little about the summons because he personally investigated it.

To summon spirits, you need training to use your sensitivity and connect with the spirits.

“Good to know. But do you plan to cover all four attributes?”

“yes. “I intend to do so.”

It would be foolish to do just one when you can do all four.

The benefits that can be obtained from fire are different from the benefits that can be obtained from water, and the earth and wind are also different.

Even if it takes some time, it is best to learn all four attributes.

“You’re going to have a hard time. “And four times that.”

“it’s okay.”

“Well, it’s your choice, so do whatever you want.”

Yoon Woo-min drew his finger in the air.

Light came from his fingers and a cloud formed.

The color was transparent, but similar to the clouds that Jeong Geun-ho was dealing with.

“What is this?”

“It is the pure spirit energy of the spirit world. “Your first training is to mold this according to its attributes.”

“If you say formative….”

“This spirit’s energy can change into fire, water, wind, and earth.”

“So, are you saying that I should use my sensitivity to imbue the spirit’s energy with its properties and shape it?”

“Accurate.”

Yoon Woo-min nodded.

Looking at Baek Woo-jin’s comprehension, it seemed like he would be able to learn elemental arts faster than expected.

“How do you make that sculpture?”

“Like Geunho, I use my hands to create sculptures, meditate, and use tools. “The more familiar the method is, the more effective it is.”

“All right.”

Baek Woo-jin nodded and opened his mouth again.

“Can I ask you a question?”

“What.”

“Jung Geun-ho and I don’t have a senior-junior relationship, right?”

Baek Woo-jin said while looking at Jeong Geun-ho, who was still glaring at him.

‘This guy. Did you even have eyes for people?’

Yoon Woo-min’s eyes changed strangely.

Jeong Geun-ho had outstanding talent, but he was impatient and had a very strong desire to compete.

I tried to use Baek Woo-jin to change his personality, but this guy asked questions as if he knew what they meant.

“okay. You are not my disciples. “You can think of it as motivation for doing the same training.”

“All right.”

“Even if you fight, don’t fight too hard.”

“yes.”

Baek Woo-jin nodded.

‘Are you telling me not to kill you?’

-…How can they tell you not to kill them? Looking at that guy named Jeong Geun-ho’s eyes, I think he’s going to hit you in the back.

The darkness seemed to show a future in which Jeong Geun-ho was stuck on the ground and struggling.

“Try to capture the attributes of the spirit energy in front of you. “Think of it as practicing.”

“yes.”

Baek Woo-jin immediately sat down and covered the spirit energy with both hands.

The spirit energy felt different from Aura or Mana.

It felt warm, but it was cold, cool, and heavy.

All of the four major attributes were contained within it.

“Hmm…”

Yoon Woo-min stood behind and looked at Baek Woo-jin.

‘Concentration is no joke’

Baek Woo-jin was so immersed in the spirit that he didn’t even notice what he was watching from behind or Jeong Geun-ho glaring at him from afar.

I was focusing all my attention on feeling the spirit’s energy.

‘I guess I can leave it alone.’

It was when Yoon Woo-min watched Baek Woo-jin for about four hours and was about to return to his room.

Ugh.

The spirit energy that Baek Woo-jin was handling began to change slightly.

“ah!”

Yoon Woo-min was so surprised that he screamed without even realizing it.

This guy changed the very tip of the spirit’s energy into fire energy.

What took Jeong Geun-ho, who is considered a genius, 5 days, Baek Woo-jin did in just 4 hours.

“Hmm…”

Baek Woo-jin looked back at Yoon Woo-min, who had made the sound.

“What was the problem?”

“Oh no.”

Yoon Woo-min hastily shook his head.

I thought he simply had good sensitivity, but his mental power and understanding were also excellent.

It was surprising how this guy existed.

“You…”

“Elder.”

Jeong Geun-ho approached where Baek Woo-jin was.

“We’re a new employee, so wouldn’t it be necessary to check their skills?”

Jeong Geun-ho’s mouth was smiling, but his eyes were not smiling.

It was burning red with the spirit of victory.

“Now what are you saying to the child who practices elemental arts?”

“I will be able to train by fighting with a former swordsman, and I will be able to confirm what spirit magic is, so wouldn’t it be helpful for my future training?”

“You…”

Yoon Woo-min glared at Jeong Geun-ho.

When Jeong Geun-ho saw Baek Woo-jin handling the spirit energy in just 4 hours, his pride was hurt, so he tried to suppress Baek Woo-jin with sparring.

“That can’t be said.”

“Elder.”

Baek Woo-jin stood up from where he was sitting.

“I don’t mind. “I also want to experience what a spiritist is like.”

“Hmm…”

“Isn’t that good too? Please do it just once.”

“Phew, that’s good. Instead, avoid deadly attacks.”

“yes.”

Jeong Geun-ho smiled, showing his teeth at Baek Woo-jin, and Baek Woo-jin smiled.

‘A guy like that should be caught in the pasture.’

-Are my predictions already coming true?

**

Baek Woo-jin and Jeong Geun-ho went to a vacant lot in the forest and settled down.

-That guy is also a unique guy. Requesting a sparring match with a prosecutor?

‘It’s because I learned it from my elders.

-what?

‘The old man also teaches walking techniques. ‘It’s faster than most prosecutors or magistrates.’

Yoon Woo-min is not an ordinary spiritist who is protected from behind.

He is a special spiritist who uses footwork to avoid danger on his own.

“Elder. “Even if you attack a spirit, you won’t die, right?”

“okay. “It doesn’t matter if you attack because you will only be reverse summoned to the spirit world.”

“All right.”

Baek Woo-jin smiled and nodded.

“Again, are you both prepared to avoid lethal attacks?”

“yes!”

“yes.”

“Start!”

Starting with Yoon Woo-min’s signal, Jeong Geun-ho stepped on the steps and summoned the spirit.

A lizard with a flaming tongue appeared to his left, and a cute little green girl appeared to his right.

“Are those Salamanders and Sylphs?”

“That’s stupid. “You’re giving the spiritist time to summon the spirit!”

“It was done on purpose.”

Baek Woo-jin leisurely lifted his sword.

“Because I wanted to try Biroe Island, which reached level 2.”

“Spitting out salamander flames and sylph….”

Baek Woo-jin put aura on his sword before Jeong Geun-ho’s command was finished.

A thunderbolt flashed from the armpit.

Absolutely!

Two thunderclaps sounded like one.

Biroeseom, whose speed increased at level 2, was able to fire two sword strikes in succession.

It looked like they flew almost at the same time.

Sigh!

Before Jeong Geun-ho could react, the flying island instantly reverse-summoned the two spirits.

The spirits disappeared without even screaming.

“I’m crazy!”

Jeong Geun-ho, whose face was gray, tried to run away from Baek Woo-jin, but he had already disappeared.

“Where on earth….”

“That’s all for today.”

Baek Woo-jin suddenly appeared behind Jeong Geun-ho.

Baek Woo-jin’s movement speed, which was affected by Rapport’s leather boots, was beyond Jeong Geun-ho’s senses.

Bye!

Baek Woo-jin hit the back of Jeong Geun-ho’s head with his sword and pinned him to the floor.

“Off…”

Jeong Geun-ho trembled and then fainted.

“Huh…”

Yoon Woo-min also looked dumbfounded, as if he didn’t know that the sparring would end so easily.

-I’ll say it again. This guy is the embodiment of luck that sparkles with golden light every time you draw it, and he is a bastard with deep-rooted corruption who monopolizes the love of the system!
