I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy - Chapter 223
Episode 223 Susanoo:
“I’m so glad you came back safely before then.”
Seo Gong-myeong put on his glasses and smiled. A heartfelt welcome was reflected in his cold-looking eyes.
“thank you.”
“Why all of a sudden…”
Baek Woo-jin stood up and bowed his head to Seo Gong-myeong. Seo Gong-myeong waved his hands at the sudden polite greeting.
“I heard that you provided various support to all fronts. “I wanted to thank you for that.”
“Well, it’s no big deal. “Did you just do whatever the child wanted?”
Seo Gong-myeong pointed to Seo In-ah, who had a blank expression. Seo In-ah, who made eye contact with Baek Woo-jin, lowered her head as if embarrassed.
“Even so, it costs a lot of money, so it’s not an easy task.”
“I received a thank you from the cooperative, so it’s not like I wasted any money.”
“You’re giving me too much air.”
Seo Gong-myeong smiled at Baek Woo-jin, and Baek Woo-jin also smiled similarly.
“That’s right. That guy is a poisonous guy who has lived without knowing the loss since he was young. “There’s no need to be thankful because I’m going to pull them all out someday.”
“I’m not that evil.”
“No. “I still remember the time when you came alone and made a bet on me.”
“…Weren’t you going to repair that sword? “We have to repair it quickly so the prosecutor can pass away.”
Seo Gong-myeong pointed to the sword that Kim Jang-hoon was holding, as if trying to change the conversation.
“Well, don’t be fooled by that guy while I’m working on the sword. “Never be fooled!”
Kim Jang-hoon entered the workshop mumbling a curse at Seo Gong-myeong.
“You too, go and help.”
“If I go, it will be a disruption. “Let’s get started quickly.”
Seo In-ah shook her head at Seo Gong-myeong’s words. I held onto the chair I was sitting on tightly, as if I had no intention of moving.
“Are you okay?”
“I don’t care.”
“Hehe, then I will tell you the request now. “Do you know Okinawa?”
Seo Gong-myeong sighed at Seo In-ah and then looked at Baek Woo-jin.
“If you say Okinawa, it’s in Japan…”
“That’s right.”
Seo Gong-myeong immediately nodded. He took out his cell phone, pressed a button, and a map of Japan appeared on the table.
“I recently purchased a small piece of land in Okinawa.”
“Land? Why…”
“After the open dungeon appeared there, the soil itself changed and became an environment where Hyeonyucho and Oyan trees could grow well, so I quickly bought it.”
“Is that okay?”
Hyeonyucho and Oyan wood are essential ingredients in the products. It was surprising that land suitable for them to grow well was purchased from Arcane, a foreign guild.
“First of all, we were the first to find out the information and purchased it under a different name than Arcane. “There are many ways in the world.”
“Incredible.”
“It’s no big deal.”
Seo Gong-myeong waved his hand. His eyes were calm as he looked at the map, as if he thought it was really nothing.
“So I just have to remove the open dungeon there? “If the dungeon is removed, isn’t it possible for the soil and climate to return to their original state?”
“Once the environment has changed due to the dungeon, it will never go back. And in fact, the dungeon is almost as processed.”
“yes?”
Baek Woo-jin tilted his head. I didn’t know why they wanted to take me to a place where the dungeon had already been processed.
“What I want to ask for is the removal of the demons that appear there.”
-Demons….
“There were demons.”
As soon as I heard that he was a demon, I knew why Seo Gongmyeong wanted to ask me for a favor.
“However, although we came from various guilds and associations, no one was able to find the demon.”
“yes? “Are you sure there really are demons?”
If a guild came out to search for demons, they should be able to at least search, even if they can’t kill them. I couldn’t understand why no one could find it.
“yes. Sometimes, the magic energy is faintly caught in the search barrier. “But they said it disappeared so quickly that they couldn’t search for it.”
“Huh…”
“No damage has been done there yet, but the mere presence of demons makes people anxious. Prosecutor, you defeated three demons by yourself, so I really want to ask you a favor.”
Baek Woo-jin searched and killed three demons alone. It was no exaggeration to say that he was a specialist in hunting demons.
‘If no one was able to find it, they must be good at hiding their power…’
-If they can’t properly control it even in the barrier, they must be at least mid-to-upper level. Just….
‘Just?’
-I’m anxious that no damage has been done so far. It looks like something is being prepared.
There are quiet people among the demons, but if they were like that, they wouldn’t have come to the human world. It was clear that there was some kind of plan.
“Well, the demon thing is crazy in our family… No, if you tell Baek Eun-kyung, she’ll give it to you for free.”
“I tried to contact you just in case, but I couldn’t contact you because you are currently on a mission.”
“Then I guess I’ll be catching demons somewhere else.”
-It would be obvious if the demon-crazed woman didn’t move.
‘okay. ‘He’ll be holding another demon.’
Baek Woo-jin chuckled. The only time Baek Eun-kyung refuses to contact me about demons is when she catches other demons.
“All right. “I will accept your request.”
“First of all, the open dungeon will be finished in a week, so you can come after that.”
“no. I will also go into the dungeon. “There might be demons there.”
“The demon wave did not appear in the dungeon.”
“But you never know. “I’ll go.”
“thank you.”
Seo Gongmyeong bowed his head. As expected, I thought it was a good idea to leave it to Baek Woo-jin.
“You can stop lowering your head, so please look at this.”
Baek Woo-jin took out a large piece of black wood from the darkness’s inventory.
“Black neck!”
“hmm!”
Seo Gong-myeong and Seo In-ah’s eyes sparkled, and Kim Jang-hoon came out in a huff.
“The stain is no joke!”
“It’s hard but resilient!”
“Hmm…”
The three people swallowed dry saliva without taking their eyes off the black neck.
“The information on the black tree is too insufficient. Please find the most appropriate way to write this.”
“Really?”
“Are you serious?”
“yes. Because I still have a lot. Please try different ways and develop the best way to use it.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded and smiled.
“Thank you for trusting us.”
“thank you!”
“After all, I have eyes to see! “That friend is the future of Arcane!”
The three people looked at Baek Woo-jin with passionate eyes. Right now, even if I asked for a guarantee, they seemed ready to accept it.
-I think the result will be different from the black neck I gave to Eugene.
‘I guess so.’
Since the black neck was entrusted to Black Market, which is the best in terms of information, and Arcane, which is the best in production, each will come up with different ways to use it. I’m already starting to look forward to it.
‘What is going to happen….’
**
Baek Woo-jin immediately returned to the family and headed to Geomgak. Because everyone had gone on vacation, there was no one left at Geomgak.
“Such a waste.”
Baek Woo-jin lightly licked his lips.
-what?
“I thought it would have been perfect to use Baek Eun-kyung for this project.”
It was a pity that Baek Eun-kyung, who could be used as a free human resource for the demons, could not be contacted.
– Well, if that woman was crazy about demons, she would have gone even if she had tied her up and told her not to go.
“Because departure is in a week. Wouldn’t it be better to just practice in the meantime?”
-Good idea. Because it’s a moment that needs to be sorted out.
“organize?”
-okay.
The darkness that was resting on the tablet PC playing a new drama lifted its head.
-The speed at which you have become stronger is beyond even my expectations. You yourself probably don’t know exactly what level you are at right now.
“Hmm…”
-The power you cannot handle is just a blunt sword that cannot be sharpened. Make sure you know what you can and cannot do during the remaining time.
“I know what you mean.”
Baek Woo-jin got up from the chair and nodded.
-First, practice maintaining the strength of your will and incorporating various sword techniques into it.
“Multiple tricks?”
-You can’t do both at once.
Baek Woo-jin was able to put his will into his strength, but he was not able to put many sword techniques into one sword like before.
-Now you have the ability to add more tricks. Focus on improving your proficiency.
“okay.”
-If that becomes possible, all of your sword skills will have the same power as your current sword skills. Concentrate on every moment of swinging your sword.
“Concentration…”
Baek Woo-jin nodded at the words of darkness and turned off the tablet PC.
-uh? why! Why turn it off!
“You said it. He told me to concentrate. “When dramas are on, I get so nervous that I can’t concentrate.”
-This bastard…
The darkness trembled with its blade. I couldn’t say anything in response because it was my own words.
-You will regret it. I will train you in hell.
A sound of teeth grinding that did not exist was heard from the darkness.
“They told me not to train, but to sort out the martial arts I had learned.”
-shut up!
“I guess it doesn’t really matter.”
Baek Woo-jin grinned.
“Let’s do something called hell training.”
**
“It’s still the same.”
Baek Cheon-woong burst into laughter as he saw Baek Woo-jin swinging his sword in the training hall.
It’s already been 5 days since I went to Sahara, killed assassins and boss monsters, and started training as soon as I returned.
When I saw him training day and night alone for five days while other people were on vacation, no one could even say it was amazing.
“Disgusting guy.”
“My Lord.”
Baek Cheon-woong entered the sword temple with a proud smile. Baek Woo-jin, who had just finished training, came over, wiping his sweat.
“Get some rest. Are you out already?”
“Is that what you’re going to say?”
Baek Cheon-woong made a ridiculous expression as he looked at Baek Woo-jin, who was sweating.
“I find training more comfortable than resting.”
“Then how about playing a game after a long time?”
“Are you talking about sparring?”
“What else can there be other than that?”
“I am grateful.”
Baek Woo-jin’s eyes sparkled with excitement. In the past, Baek Cheon-woong looked at it one-sidedly, but I was curious what would happen now.
“Since you brought a sword, let’s begin.”
“Let’s do it right away?”
“It’s been a while since I rested, so I can do it right away.”
“Anyway, it’s a lie.”
Baek Woo-jin shrugged his shoulders and took three steps back. Baek Cheon-woong smiled and walked three steps backwards, just like Baek Woo-jin.
“i look forward to!”
“I’m counting on you.”
The two men sparred, keeping a distance of just ten steps.
“Then go first!”
As soon as Baek Cheonwoong raised his head, he kicked the ground. He ran straight ahead and struck Baek Woo-jin with his sword on the top of his head.
Whoops!
Baek Woo-jin pulled out his sword and pushed Baek Cheon-woong’s sword away. A fierce sound of metal echoed through the empty training hall.
“You don’t want to look at me at all.”
“How many people will look at you now?”
“I guess there are a lot?”
“You are too humble!”
Unlike the friendly conversation between the two, their swords targeted each other’s vital points to the point of bloody violence.
Okay!
Baek Cheon-woong let go of Baek Woo-jin’s diagonal sword stroke and then thrust the sword towards Baek Woo-jin’s solar plexus.
Chaaaang!
Baek Woo-jin used the iron pan bridge to avoid Baek Cheon-woong’s sword and then struck back with his sword. Baek Cheon-woong’s sword trembled as if it were an aspen tree.
“Big!”
Baek Cheon-ung held his trembling sword and increased his speed even further. His sword extended like a bullet.
Sigh!
Baek Woo-jin stepped back and avoided Baek Cheon-woong’s beam-like attack, then used the recoil of his feet to turn to the side and strike Baek Cheon-woong’s sword at Baek Cheon-woong’s blind spot.
Kyaaaang!
Baek Cheon-woong bounced Baek Woo-jin’s sword by gently moving his feet like a leaf falling.
Okay! Awesome!
Baek Cheon-woong and Baek Woo-jin clashed over 100 rounds in an instant at such a close distance that they could feel each other’s breath.
“also!”
A proud smile bloomed on Baek Cheonwoong’s lips. It’s a completely different skill than before. Letting one’s guard down even just a little could lead to immediate defeat.
“Let’s get started on the right foot!”
“great!”
The tangible strength of the two people’s swords burned.
Quang! Coooooo!
The center of the sparring hall exploded at the impact of the first powerful force. Even when the ground exploded and a storm of strong energy erupted, the two people’s swords did not stop.
‘It’s much more comfortable.’
Baek Woo-jin smiled while fighting fiercely. Perhaps because he trained day and night with Heukam, he seemed to have developed a definite system of swordsmanship.
‘I feel like I can do anything now.’
The movements and sword strokes I had pictured in my head were reenacted through my hands and feet.
-It has to be that way.
It is very important for martial artists to clearly understand their own abilities.
Although his aurors did not become stronger or his swordsmanship became stronger, Baek Woo-jin’s strength was no different from his further growth.
“I really…”
Baek Cheon-woong stuck out his tongue. At the age of 20, I was shocked and proud that there was someone who could use this level of strength.
‘But my swordsmanship isn’t that good.’
For swordsmen who use strength for the first time, the phenomenon of being eaten by strength occurs. This is a phenomenon in which the swordsmanship becomes simple and becomes difficult to solve due to the power of the sword, but Baek Woo-jin did not have that.
Appropriate myogi was mixed with the ripe Ganggi. He was truly an amazing guy.
I couldn’t understand whether I was fighting a 20-year-old or a monster who was already over 50.
“Still…”
Baek Cheon-woong tightened his grip on his sword. I didn’t want to lose to Baek Woo-jin yet. I wanted to be the umbrella that protects his stomach.
Cheeeeee!
A deep blue light erupted from Baek Cheon-woong’s sword. The realization he had gained in decades bloomed slowly like a winter flower along his sword.
“You have achieved enlightenment.”
“I was lucky.”
Baek Cheonwoong smiled leisurely.
“Then I will also show off my skills.”
As soon as Baek Woo-jin finished speaking, a powerful force filled with strong will surged from the blade of the Armin Sword.
“How on earth!”
There was astonishment in Baek Cheon-woong’s eyes. I never imagined that Baek Woo-jin had already reached the intermediate level of Kang Ki-ji-gyeong.
I didn’t reach the level of strength at the age of 20. This guy reached the intermediate level of Kang Gi-ji-gyeong at the age of 20. Beyond being amazing, I wondered if it was really possible.
“I was lucky too.”
“You really are…”
Baek Cheon-woong shook his head. Between embarrassment and astonishment, there was great pride and admiration.
Quaaaaa!
The two men said no more and slashed their swords at each other.
Hahaha!
Baek Cheon-woong laughed as the light faded away at the same time as the two powerful forces collided.
‘It’s a shame…’
I wanted to gain new insight and teach Baek Woo-jin many things, but Baek Woo-jin had already returned as a prosecutor who could not be defeated by him.
“You monster!”
Baek Cheon-woong expressed his regret with one word.
**
“Ugh…”
Oda Taiga, the master of the Leon Guild who operates in Osaka, Japan, lifted his heavy eyelids.
“What is this!”
My chin was shaking. The entire round space was surrounded by cloudy mirrors, and more than a dozen humans and monsters, including himself, were stuck in the ground except for their heads.
“Ugh…”
I tried to use my aura to move my body, but it didn’t move as if I was on drugs.
“What on earth happened…”
I remember moving with my guild mates to go to a dungeon on the outskirts of Osaka, but I couldn’t remember anything after that. I didn’t know why I was here.
“Hinata! Toya!”
I called out the names of other colleagues who had fainted next to me, but they didn’t move at all, probably because they had fainted.
“He’s a kid with a pretty good mentality.”
“Huh!”
I heard a woman’s voice behind me for the first time. It was a soft voice, but just hearing it sent chills down my spine.
Jeez.
With the sound of light footsteps, a being appeared in front of him.
“Ah…”
It was a woman with jade-colored skin, two spiral-twisted horns, black eyes, and a tail similar to that of a cow.
“Demon demon!”
A scream came out of Taiga’s mouth. It was clear. Although I couldn’t feel any demonic energy in my body, my appearance was definitely that of a demon.
“What are you doing? “Where are we?”
“It’s Okinawa.”
“Oh Okinawa?”
Osaka and Okinawa, where he was located, were far away. I couldn’t understand how the demons brought these people here.
“Why are we here….”
“I wanted to make something fun.”
“what?”
“Do you know how we get our strength?”
“The fear of the people…”
Taiga answered the demon’s question without realizing it.
“that’s right. “We can gain strength from people’s negative emotions.”
The demon nodded, spitting out a sweet voice.
“So a funny idea occurred to me. “I wonder if you could make the gods you pray to and worship in that way.”
“What kind of bullshit is that….”
“Luckily, it matches well with my abilities.”
The woman pointed to the left with a long finger. Taiga followed the finger and opened his mouth.
“That one!”
Inside a huge see-through egg was a huge man with scattered hair, his eyes closed. Even though I felt like I was sleeping, I felt an incredibly evil energy.
“I am the god you create. You have the honor of becoming a sacrifice to the god you serve.”
“Am I really creating a god?”
Taiga looked at the man in the egg again.
When I saw the prominent muscles that covered the huge body, the face with a rough spirit, and the long hair that stretched out like seaweed, the name of the martial god that everyone knew came to mind.
“No way, Susa….”
“That’s it.”
Taiga’s eyes and mouth were covered by the demon’s gesture.
“It’s not time for that child’s name to be called yet.”
“Kwaaaaaak!”
When the demon snapped his fingers, black energy surged from the ground and began to suck the life force of humans, including Taiga.
Coo!
At that moment, the egg containing the man throbbed like a heart and grew in size.
“It’s a god created by demons…”
A bright red smile bloomed on the lips of the demon who saw that.
