I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy - Chapter 289
Episode 289 “I see a lot of beads
today.”
Baek Woo-jin chuckled and picked up an apple-sized bead.
“It feels similar and vibrant, but it’s a little different.”
Unlike the energy contained in the unique human energy, I also felt the energy of nature.
“Darkness. “Please appraise this.”
-Sseu-eup….
Darkness scratched his tongue while looking at the beads.
-I feel really bad.
“You’re going to do it anyway. “Let’s hurry up and get out.”
-Ah, why do I have emotional abilities?
Although he grumbled, he appraised the beads.
[Episode]
Grade: Legendary.
It has the effect of restoring energy or spirit to those who are shocked and unable to wake up.
“Hmm…”
Baek Woo-jin read the explanation of Gakmyeongju and tasted it.
“It’s not mine.”
Unfortunately, it was not an item that would be helpful to my current self.
-Hehehe!
Heukam began to smirk when he saw Baek Woo-jin’s regretful expression.
-Hahaha! What should I do with this? Something useless to you came out. Isn’t your luck running out?
He teases me in a high-pitched voice as if he’s in a good mood. If it had a mouth, it would probably have its tongue flailing.
“It’s not mine, but it might be helpful to someone.”
Baek Woo-jin let go of the teasing of darkness and took home the prize.
-what?
“Some people may not be able to get up even if their energy returns.”
Even if the vitality lost to the hornets is restored, there may be people who cannot wake up.
Square silk was the perfect item to use for them.
Plus, it looks like they forgot about the darkness, but there was still a quest reward left.
I was not disappointed at all even if the item didn’t help since I would get a decent reward.
-You just give it to me? Since it’s a legend, you’ll be able to get a lot of things by selling or bartering, right?
“This was a disaster committed by Kim Nam-gil and Rosamere. Making a business out of the lives of those caught up in it is something only a criminal would do.”
Burying with the life of an innocent person? It didn’t suit me.
-Hmm….
The darkness nodded its blade sharply as if satisfied.
‘He’s someone you can’t hate.’
It may be that he stole the hearts of both himself and the system because of the kind of side he sometimes shows.
-It’s a good idea for you. Go out and find someone who can’t wake up. By any chance…
“Are you saying that after teasing me just a little while ago?”
Baek Woo-jin burst into laughter as he watched the darkness taking form.
-That’s all a joke. Did I really make fun of you? huh? If it’s true, it’s so immature.
“You are immature.”
Baek Woo-jin calmly expressed his honest thoughts.
“really.”
When it came to my body, I thought it was a powerful force, but now I feel like a local guy who is just joking around.
-Are you immature? I? I, who has lived for hundreds of years, am immature? Is that what you’re going to say!
Heukam seemed shocked and muttered the word ‘immature’ over and over again.
Just right.
Baek Woo-jin giggled and snapped his fingers.
Coo coo coo coo!
A pile of rocks poured from the ceiling and Chrome appeared.
[Chung!]
He gently stroked the bridge of Chrome’s nose and pointed upward.
“Let’s go back.”

Moon Ju-young gathered the rescued people to one side to make it easier to protect them.
I didn’t know if any remaining wasps would come, so I waited next to the people without relaxing.
“Moon Guard!”
As I was standing guard and looking down, the medical team that had finished clearing out the wasps came running.
“What are these people?”
Hong A-ra’s pupils shook. It was strange that there were people here, but they all had pale faces.
“Hmm….”
“The condition of those people….”
The other medical school prosecutors were also curious about the identity of the hostages, so they only looked at Moon Ju-young’s mouth.
“These are the hostages that Lord Soga saved from the underground.”
“Hostages? “All these people?”
“okay. “He saved every single one of them.”
Moon Joo-young grinned. Even though Baek Woo-jin did it, he was proud of it as if he had done it himself.
“Is he still down there?”
Jeok Yeon-hwa, who followed behind the medical school, came up next to Moon Ju-young.
“yes. “You’re fighting Zeno’s master underground.”
“If you are my Zenon master, is it Kim Nam-gil? He is definitely dead…”
Jeok Yeon-hwa’s eyes widened. Kim Nam-gil is dead. And that too in the hands of Baek Woo-jin.
I couldn’t understand why Kim Nam-gil was fighting with Baek Woo-jin.
“Rosamir was in the underground space. I don’t know what he did, but he resurrected Kim Nam-gil. And….”
Kim Nam-gil told Jeok Yeon-hwa and Uigeomdae about what happened down there.
“oh my god! Shouldn’t you go help then? “It’s 2 to 1!”
“You don’t have to do that. “Because Lord Soga told me to believe.”
When Jeok Yeon-hwa was about to jump in, Moon Joo-young shook her head.
“He does not break his promises. “Just wait here and he’ll be out soon.”
“Kim Nam-gil is also Kim Nam-gil, but Rosamir is among necromancers… huh?”
Jeok Yeon-hwa looked at the hole in the beehive with anxious eyes and trembled.
thud.
The stones on the floor shook slightly.
Coo!
This time the ground shook.
Coo coo coo coo!
earthquake. The entire mountain began to shake as if a high-intensity earthquake had occurred.
“We’re fighting.”
I swallowed dry saliva as I looked at the ground where the red lotus flower was twisted.
An earthquake was occurring in the aftermath of the battle between Baek Woo-jin and Kim Nam-gil deep underground.
‘Oh my god…’
I couldn’t believe it.
No one would believe that an underground fight would cause an earthquake to shake the entire region unless they saw it for themselves.
Coo coo coo coo!
The earthquake, which was strong enough to tickle my feet, became so strong that it was difficult to even stand properly.
Quaaaaa!
The earthquake, which seemed like it would shake the entire mountain, lasted for 10 minutes and finally subsided with only a small tremor.
“Is it over?”
Jeok Yeonhwa sighed and looked around. I didn’t know who won, but it seemed like it was over.
Quaaaaa!
As I was about to approach the wasp nest to inspect it, a vast black light rose from the entrance.
Kuoaaaaaaa!
The jet-black energy that burst through the entrance soared into the sky and even pierced the clouds.
“This energy….”
“It’s Lord Soga! It’s his Auror!”
“I thought you would win!”
The medical team cheered as they saw the black energy rising to the sky.
A black aura that anyone can see.
Baek Woo-jin was the only warrior who used that black aura.
“You defeated those two by yourself?”
Jeok Yeon-hwa clenched her fists.
‘Has he become stronger again?’
Not to mention Kim Nam-gil, Rosamir is also a powerhouse ranked at the highest level of risk.
To win a fight with both of them at the same time was not only surprising, but shocking.
‘How can you become stronger so quickly?’
It is common knowledge that the stronger the force, the slower the growth.
But it’s different.
Baek Woo-jin deviated from that common sense.
From the first time we met in the vine mole dungeon until now, he has never stopped growing.
He was a person who drove alone on the highway while others drove on public roads.
Wooooow!
Suddenly, white lights leaked from the ground and penetrated the hostages in the corner.
Whoa.
The hostages’ faces, which had been pale as if they were about to die, began to regain color. My energy came back and my energy was restored.
[Crunch!]
Chrome, who was guarding the hostages, snorted and disappeared into the ground.
A moment later, the ground erupted and Chrome and Baek Woo-jin appeared at the same time.
It doesn’t look like it’s hurt at all.
Baek Woo-jin smiled brightly and even waved his hand to the medical examiner, showing his composure.
“Huh…”
Jeok Yeon-hwa opened her mouth wide.
‘Is that possible?’
I’m glad I wasn’t hurt, but I didn’t expect it to come out so fine. Even saying it was amazing was not enough.
“hey.”
When Jeok Yeon-hwa couldn’t come to her senses, Baek Woo-jin tapped her on the shoulder.
“I guess I’ve gotten over my bug phobia.”
“Thank you…”
Jeok Yeon-hwa let out a small sigh, unable to say, ‘I think I’m going to develop a phobia of you.’
**
Baek Woo-jin finished everything and went to the recovery room where the chiropractic examination table was located.
“Lord Soga!”
The head of the Cheokgeomdae and the prosecutors of the Cheokgeomdae, who came to their senses, jumped to their feet.
“Thank you for saving my life!”
“Thank you so much!”
The prosecutors of the Cheongseomdae bowed their heads.
“You probably haven’t recovered yet, so lie down.”
Baek Woo-jin accepted the greetings of the prosecutors and stood in front of the Cheokgeomdaeju.
“Are you feeling okay?”
“Thanks to you, I survived.”
Kim Hyeong-un, the great swordsman, bowed his head.
‘I never thought I would open my eyes again…’
In fact, I gave up on life when I was stung in more than ten places by a giant hornet’s poisonous sting.
I tried to save more people with the thought of dying for the name of the Shingeombaekga, even though I was going to die anyway.
But survived.
Not by the head of the Shingeombaek family, who sacrificed his life, but by the youngest master with whom he had no connection.
‘I don’t know what to say.’
Kim Hyeong-un looked at Baek Woo-jin and felt emotions that were difficult to express in words.
“I have a question.”
“Please speak.”
“Why did you save me? “The head of the family may discipline you in the future.”
I was genuinely curious.
Even if he saved himself, he wouldn’t be of much help and he wouldn’t make any friends. I couldn’t understand why I came to save the inspection team at the risk of being disciplined.
“Is that strange?”
Baek Woo-jin looked at the prosecutors of the inspection team standing in the hospital room with serious eyes.
“You are the prosecutors of the Shingeombaek family. “As the head of a small family, and indeed as a member of the same family, it is natural to save a family member in danger.”
Because it was something I had thought about since my past life, the answer flowed smoothly and without lies.
“Ah…”
“Hmm…”
The scouts looked at Baek Woo-jin with their pupils trembling.
My heart skipped a beat when I heard the words ‘family member of the same family’ come out of his mouth.
I have lived with great pride since joining the Baek family, but this is the first time I have felt such passionate feelings.
“Lord Soga was just as he seemed.”
Hyungwoon Kim laughed and closed his eyes.
Baek Woo-jin had no intention. I was really just thinking that way.
Looking at him, I felt like I was back in my 20s when I was full of enthusiasm.
“If the head of the family imposes disciplinary action on the head of the So family…”
Kim Hyeong-woon bowed his head with the utmost courtesy.
“I will be there too.”
“Us too!”
“We’ll go together too!”
The prosecutors took the example at the same time.
The chief swordsman and the swordsman bowed their heads with the utmost respect that was reserved for the head of the family.
“You don’t have to do that.”
Baek Woo-jin grinned and turned his foot around.
“Everyone, rest well and come back when you feel completely healed.”
With those words, he left the hospital room.
“….”
Kim Hyung-woon and the prosecutors stared at Baek Woo-jin’s door for a long time with eyes full of emotion.

After Baek Woo-jin ordered Moon Joo-young and the medical examiner to take a break, he headed to Yoo Jin-ah’s office at Black Market’s headquarters.
“There’s something special about you coming right after you finish work.”
Eugene smiled and handed out the coffee.
“Originally, once you solve a mission or case, you immediately enter the training room.”
-Did you install a hidden camera? How do you know so well?
‘It has to be that way.’
It’s already been 5 years since I met Eugene, so it’s strange that I don’t know.
“I came because I have a favor to ask you.”
“Say as much as you want. Since you came without even stopping by the practice room, I’ll give you anything.”
Yujinah smiled and moistened her mouth with coffee.
chin.
Baek Woo-jin placed a transparent sphere on the table.
“This is…”
“It’s an item called Gakmyeongju obtained by killing Rosamere and Kim Nam-gil.”
“It is said that Gakmyeongju can revive even a half-dead person…”
Yu Jin-ah looked at Gakmyeongju and widened her eyes.
“To be precise, it will only be people with damaged energy or damaged spirit.”
The use of each name is extremely limited. It is not effective for people with physical injuries.
“But why is this item suddenly… Ah! Are you planning to put it up for auction? Then…”
“No.”
Baek Woo-jin shook his head.
“I tried to write it to people who were hit by the hornet, but it turned out that everyone who woke up woke up and the rest were only dead.”
Baek Woo-jin continued, feeling bitterness lingering on the tip of his tongue.
“If there is anyone who has been affected by this incident and cannot wake up, please let us know. “I told this to the association, but I think there are some people they can’t find, so I’m telling the vice president.”
“Ha…”
Yujinah put down her coffee cup and let out a sigh.
‘This person is really….’
My tongue clicks out.
Baek Woo-jin’s request was not for himself, but for others.
“I didn’t mean to sell you beads.”
“If there is no one who was attacked by a wasp and cannot wake up, I will sell it, but if there is someone like that, I will just give it to them.”
“Wow….”
Yujinah shook her head.
No matter how much money you have, would you just give something valuable like that?
It’s something I can’t even imagine. It was not a cooperation agreement for nothing.
“All right. “If there is anyone who has been harmed by wasps and cannot wake up, I will definitely let you know.”
Yujinah bowed her head in reverence.
“thank you.”
Baek Woo-jin bowed his head and smiled.
“Is there any information about my father…”
“I haven’t found it yet.”
Eugene frowned.
“There is no sign that the portal has been moved, and there is no sign of it anywhere on foot, car, plane, or ship.”
Even though I searched all over the world, the location of Baekcheonhwa and Black Sword Master couldn’t be found, so I couldn’t find the direction, let alone the place of movement.
“We will conduct a more detailed search in the future….”
“Don’t worry. “If my father decides to disappear, no one will be able to find him.”
Baek Woo-jin stood up and waved his hand.
“Are you going already?”
“yes. Like you said, it’s time to be put in the training room.”
**
Baek Woo-jin finished his Auror training and opened his eyes.
Goooooh.
A black light, darker than the night, flickered and faded in his eyes.
-It’s also faster to shake off mud.
“Because it’s a club ball.”
Because the level of practice was high, Kim Nam-gil’s terrible morale and the reverberations of Auror were easily shaken off.
-What are you going to do now? Since we’ve been through a lot of fighting, it’s better to rest than train…
“In the meantime, do you want to watch dramas?”
-Wow, Season 2 of Secret Forest has come out! This drama is a must-watch!
“Well, dramas are good, but there’s something you’re forgetting.”
-huh? What is that…
Ding!
Just as the darkness was about to answer, a clear beep sounded.
“come!”
-Huh! The sound of a bell ringing in the underworld!
A message came to mind before the dark, confused voice finished.
[Calculate the reward for the quest < Hidden Death >.]
[5000 reward points will be given.]
-Whoops! I forgot about this!
A message about additional compensation appeared along with a scream of darkness.
[Numerous people were amazed at your performance.]
[Numerous people were amazed at your abilities.]
[Many people think you are a lifesaver.]
[An additional 5000 points will be awarded.]
[To be paid The level of the characteristic increases significantly.]
Ding!
[The trait < Sheep's Heart Attack > is unlocked.]
