I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy - Chapter 316
Episode 316 Great Swordsman (2)
-Did you just say Balrog?
“okay. “The boss of that dungeon is Balrog.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded without taking his eyes off the TV.
– Speaking of Balrog…. No matter how much the enemy is an absolute warrior, he cannot defeat the fighting spirit of the demon world!
“I know.”
The name of the arena dungeon shown on TV is ‘Cranrium’.
Unlike regular dungeons where monsters are spread out, Cranrium is a unique dungeon where one boss-level monster emerges from the arena located in the center of the dungeon.
It is a simple way to conquer a dungeon by catching ten bosses that appear one by one, but conquering the dungeon is close to impossible.
‘Because the last boss is Balrog.’
From the first boss to the ninth boss, there are monsters that a level 8 warrior can easily deal with.
However, the boss that appears in the last tenth slot is of a different level.
The main character was Balrog, the owner of Cranrium and the so-called fighting spirit of the demon world.
The Balrog used martial arts in the form of demons, his strength surpassed the absolute, and he also had special combat abilities.
-Did that dungeon appear in your past life as well?
“that’s right.”
Because it was such a big event, I clearly remember the shape of that arena.
-What did you do back then?
“Two absolute beings joined forces, but they couldn’t catch him, so he was sent to another world.”
In his previous life, even though he and Daeyeonmunju worked together, they were unable to defeat Balrog.
In the end, while those two were wasting time, the four owners of the Lucas Tower gathered together and sent the Balrog flying to the other world.
‘But things have changed a bit since my previous life…’
Baek Woo-jin frowned. Cranrium came out not now, but two years later when he turned 23, and the location was Busan, not Gwanghwamun.
-So, is it someone other than Balrog that appears there?
“That won’t be it. “If it had been someone other than Balrog, the Lord of the Red House would have attacked and come out a long time ago.”
-Tsk.
Darkness has quenched my appetite.
-Then he must have already died. He was a guy I liked because he was manly…
Jeok Wi-jin taught Baek Woo-jin, who could be said to be the enemy’s son, and gave him a chance to grow. I felt regretful because he was the only man I liked among the Absolute.
“Maybe not.”
Baek Woo-jin stood up and put on the Seolyoung sword.
-huh?
“Even in his past life, Lord Red House withstood the Balrog for a long time. And the brakes haven’t worked yet.”
When a dungeon breaks, it happens when the abilities that entered the dungeon are wiped out or when the dungeon cannot be conquered even after a week.
That means there are still survivors.
Baek Woo-jin took out his cell phone and called Lee Young-hyun of the association.
[Lord Baek?]
“Sorry for the late hour. “I’m watching the news right now…”
I asked Younghyun Lee about the current situation.
[We did not know the exact situation, so we gathered most of the association’s talented people in Gwanghwamun. There is a possibility that the Red Family Lord showed up late on purpose because he was training his successor, so I did not contact the White Family Lord.]
“I see.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded. This is a case that can be fully expected. If only it weren’t the Balrog arena.
“I will go there too.”
[Are you serious? Thank you!]
“I’ll be there soon.”
Baek Woo-jin hung up the phone while listening to Lee Young-hyun’s excited voice. I put on my black jacket and immediately opened the door and went out.
-….
Darkness waved the blade of his sword while looking at the TV that was turned on.
-I guess there will be no drama in this life….
**
As soon as Baek Woo-jin arrived at Gwanghwamun, he felt tension as sharp as a needle.
-It’s bloody.
‘It has to be that way.’
Since I couldn’t tell what the situation was like inside, I couldn’t help but feel a strong sense of tension.
“Lord Baek!”
As I approached the front of the dungeon, Lee Young-hyun, whose wrinkles had increased, came running towards me.
“You came right away!”
“Of course you should come.”
“Thank you so much….”
Younghyun Lee bowed his head with sincerity.
‘This person is still the same. ‘He hasn’t changed at all.’
Actually, I should have called Baek Woo-jin right away, but he was so big that I couldn’t reach the phone. I couldn’t say anything because I was so thankful that he came here first.
“Let’s go to the front of the dungeon first.”
“All right. I’ll explain as I go. The initial level of that dungeon was low, but now it has become disaster level. “I can understand the reason…”
Baek Woo-jin headed to the entrance of the dungeon while listening to Lee Young-hyun’s explanation. It was exactly the same as Cranrium in the previous life, except that the head of the Jeok family brought Jeok Gyeonghun in for training.
“Bae Baek Woo-jin!”
“It’s Baekgaju!”
“The head of the Shingeombaek family has arrived!”
At the shout that Baek Woo-jin had arrived, the faces of the talented people gathered in front of the dungeon turned bright red. Now, the rigid atmosphere has begun to relax, as if there is confidence no matter what comes out of the dungeon.
“That’s…”
Baek Woo-jin narrowed his eyes when he saw the woman standing at the very front of the dungeon.
-Red softening? Why short hair?
As Heukam said, Jeok Yeon-hwa had her hair cut short and was looking at the entrance to the dungeon like a stone statue.
“Deacon Jeok Yeon-hwa didn’t move in front of me all day…”
Lee Young-hyeon, who followed his gaze, opened his mouth with a dark look on his face.
It’s natural.
I must have been so worried that I couldn’t sleep because I lost news of Jeok Wi-jin and Jeok Gyeong-hun, who should have returned in four days.
“Red softening.”
When Baek Woo-jin walked next to her and called her name, Jeok Yeon-hwa slowly turned her head. His red eyes were filled with fighting spirit, and his momentum was flawless.
-Oh my…
‘That’s not good.’
I knew this because I had seen a lot of red lotus flowers. It looks solid, but in reality it is on the verge of collapsing. It seemed very mentally difficult.
“are you okay?”
At Baek Woo-jin’s short words, Jeok Yeon-hwa’s icy face collapsed. As my fighting spirit and spirit disappeared, worry and sadness filled me.
“Oh, Dad jokes around a lot, but there’s no way he would come out this late without saying anything…”
Jeok Yeon-hwa’s mouth, which had been tightly closed, opened. The voice is as dry as a drought-hit rice field.
“There must be some problem. Please, please help me.”
Jeok Yeon-hwa grabbed Baek Woo-jin’s sleeve and trembled.
“Huh…”
Lee Young-hyun blurted out after seeing that.
‘The person that Jeok Yeon-hwa trusted the most was Baek Ga-ju?’
Baek Woo-jin was the only one who asked for help from Jeok Yeon-hwa, who kept quiet and comforted the deacons who lived together as family-like guards, saying that she was okay. It was something I could never have imagined.
“Hmm…”
Baek Woo-jin bit his lip. The words asking for help rang out loud as if I had hit my chest with a drumstick.
I must have wanted to ask for help since yesterday, but I was also impressed by her mental strength to endure alone without any contact.
“If I can.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded heavily and headed toward the entrance of the dungeon.
Jeok Wijin, Jeok Gyeong-hoon, Jeok Yeon-hwa.
Those three people have helped me in many ways in the past. There was a medium called debt, but it had no meaning.
-But how? If it breaks, isn’t it already too late?
‘There might be a way.’
For a long time, I thought that the black barrier blocking the entrance to the dungeon was a barrier or a jinn. If it is a formation or barrier, you may be able to cut it and enter it.
Ugh!
Baek Woo-jin used his eyes to see the flow and looked at the entrance to the dungeon, but he could not feel the flow of the barrier or the formation.
‘If this doesn’t work…’
It was time to try another method.
[The title < Daeo > is activated.]
A pure white radiance appeared in the eyes, the darkness that closed the entrance to the dungeon opened, and a pure white barrier erected within it was revealed. It was a sacred yet foul-smelling barrier.
-This!
‘I erased the illusion.’
It seemed as if Daeo had erased the illusions and illusions that protected the barrier.
Ding!
When Baek Woo-jin was about to move, a clear alarm sound was heard.
[An unexpected quest has arrived.]
Eliminate Balrog Katalon and rescue those who are connected to you.
Condition: Balrog removed. Jeok Gyeong-hoon of Red Guards returned alive.
Reward: 5000 points. Sudden compensation.
-You’re giving me this all of a sudden?
The darkness rose up as if irritated.
-If I find a corner to spread it, I don’t miss it! This terrible….
‘I accept.’
Baek Woo-jin accepted the quest and lowered his posture. Now is not the time to accept the complaints of darkness.
Ugh!
He raised his auror and placed his right hand on the sword handle of Seolyeonggeom.
Sigh!
Using the energy of the barrier field, he fired a black king bullet. The teeth of the black beast mercilessly tore apart the barrier that sealed the entrance.
Ugh!
The darkness that blocked the dungeon parted, and the tightly closed entrance opened wide, like a curtain being lifted.
-Is this okay?
“Ah…”
The darkness was startled and Younghyeon Lee opened his mouth as if he was lost.
‘This was possible?’
Opening the entrance to an already closed dungeon is something no one has been able to do.
Kram, the strongest archmage in Europe, Wirdan, the highest-ranking shaman in Brazil, and Baek Cheon-hwa and Jeok Wi-jin who reached absolute status as unmanned people said it was impossible.
I was completely entranced by the fact that I had achieved this all by myself and with just a sword.
‘Never before.’
There was no better word to describe Baek Woo-jin.
“As expected, Lord Baek!”
“Let’s go in together!”
“let’s go!”
It was time for people to move towards the entrance of the dungeon in joy. A terrifying spirit spewed out from the entrance of the dungeon.
“Ah…”
“Ugh!”
“What is this…”
The faces of the talented people turned pale due to the tremendous speculation that made their skin tingle just by being exposed.
‘This can’t be done…’
‘It’s impossible to even fight.’
The powerful fell to their knees and trembled. The fighting spirit that emerged from the dungeon was so strong that I couldn’t even breathe properly, let alone fight.
“Ah…”
Jeok Yeon-hwa barely raised her head and looked at Baek Woo-jin. His hands were shaking, probably because he was nervous about the fighting that came out of that dungeon.
‘You have to say it.’
Don’t go. I had to say that I would cancel my request for help, but I couldn’t open my mouth due to the massive speculation that erupted from the dungeon.
“Haa….”
Baek Woo-jin let out a light breath and activated his magic.
Hahaha!
The gray flames blooming from the dantian envelop the entire body and burn violently. The energy of the divine demons overwhelmed the fighting spirit and completely took control of this space.
“Ah…”
“I can’t breathe…”
“I stopped shaking.”
The talented people looked at Baek Woo-jin with eyes as if they were possessed by a ghost. A young gray glow all over his body swallowed up the fighting spirit that rose up in the dungeon.
Ugh!
Baek Woo-jin spread his spirit inside the dungeon.
‘He’s still alive.’
I could feel the energy of not only Jeok Gyeong-hoon of the Red Guards, but also other officers. However, the energy of the red line was faint, like a candle that would soon be extinguished.
“Red softening.”
At that low call, Jeok Yeon-hwa raised her head with her chin trembling.
“Another debt has increased.”
Baek Woo-jin grinned and crossed the dungeon door.
“Don’t worry, I’m waiting.”
**
“Ugh…”
The Red Guards let out a breathless groan.
‘Is this the end?…’
A monster with four horns and two pairs of wings approaches. A fighting spirit from the demon world who called himself Balrog.
‘I never thought a guy like that would come out.’
Actually, the level of this dungeon was not that high. I brought Jeok Gyeong-hoon along to experience the unique structure and form, and the level of the boss from the dungeon was also ordinary.
However, that Balrog that appeared in the tenth place was of a different level from any monster I had faced so far.
It felt like the difficulty level had suddenly increased from 2 to 100.
‘The problem wasn’t just being strong.’
The Balrog was superior to him in force alone, but he had bigger problems than that.
Powerful telekinesis.
The telekinesis used by Balrog was beyond ordinary telekinesis. It had enough power to inflict internal injuries and defeat Aurors during battle.
His body and mind were already completely ruined by his telekinesis and endless fighting power.
[Crrrrr….]
The Balrog growled like an animal and stood in front of the enemy guard. Even though Red Wijin was tall, he couldn’t even compare to Balrog.
[It was the most fun battle of the last 100 years. For a human, it’s quite good.]
A strange voice, like a saw blade spinning, came out of the Balrog’s mouth.
[However, it seems like you too have reached your limit.]
“You know it all too well.”
Red Wijin nodded slowly. I fought alone for two days to protect the seriously injured Jeok Gyeong-hoon and other talented people.
The auror that was like the ocean has reached its bottom, and the limbs are creaking. I felt like I couldn’t last even a single fight, let alone fight.
“Whew…”
I sighed and glanced back. I can barely see my son with his eyes open and his commanding officer, Jeokryongdae.
‘The reason I’ve survived until now is because of those guys…’
If it weren’t for them, I would have collapsed long ago.
I wanted to hold on as long as I could until the dungeon broke and at least save those guys, but in the end, it was impossible.
[Thanks to you, my expectations for this world have increased. There must be more interesting people out there.]
“Khahahaha!”
Jeok Gyeong-hoon could not hold back and burst into laughter.
“fun? “There are people like you who can make a fuss.”
[I like that.]
Balrog grinned. It was a smile filled with interest and anticipation, not fear.
“I’m sorry, but you can’t beat that kid.”
Baek Woo-jin can defeat this devil who is playing with him. I definitely believed that would be the case.
However, when I thought about Baek Woo-jin, I thought of my youngest daughter, whom I tried not to think about. I raised my fist, hoping that the child, who would not hurt even if I put it in his eye, would live well.
“Matriarch!”
“Oh father! It’s not possible!”
When the Jeokryongdae and Jeokgyeonghun behind them tried to rush forward, the Jeokwijin sprayed energy waves and created a wall.
“I am Gwon Hwang. “I cannot see my people dying in front of me.”
Jeok Wei-jin filled the last remaining power of the Supreme King Shinmu into his right fist and threw it out.
Quaaaaa!
The Supremacy God’s magic stone, which condensed the extreme aura, was shot towards the Balrog head.
Whoops!
The Balrog slashes the greatsword on his shoulder. A great sword engulfed in the flames of the demon world cuts through the energy of the Red Heaven Stone.
“Ugh…”
The enemy guard fell to his knees, coughing up blood. The coils that had been stretched to their limit were torn, causing serious internal injuries. Now I didn’t even have the strength to lift my hand.
Whoa!
The fur stood on end as the great sword fell to cleave the head.
‘Ah…’
The son and deacons calling his name sound distant. It feels like my body and mind are splitting apart.
Whoa!
When I closed my eyes, prepared to die, a strong wind blew and erased the bloody smell from the great sword.
When I opened my eyes to an unknown warm energy, a beautiful black sword appeared. As if I had been here from the beginning.
“omg!”
The enemy guard screamed. There was no way I didn’t know. It was his sword.
[What is this!]
The Balrog was seen shouting and applying force to his great sword. As a chill ran down my spine, a black sword shot up from below.
Whoa!
The black sword pushed the Balrog greatsword with force, emitting a magnificent brilliance.
That vivid light pierced the heavens and earth filled with darkness and speculation.
The earth is twisted and the sky is falling. It is an unusual power that goes beyond the dungeon’s rule that the environment does not change.
The sword that collapsed the dungeon circled in the air and was caught in the hand of a man.
A collapsing world.
He stood in the center of the blue.
[Crrrrrrr!]
At that overwhelming appearance, the Balrog groaned and stepped back, and the Red Guards’ hearts throbbed hotly.
“I was asked to help.”
Baek Woo-jin. A transcendent being wrapped in the light of a divine demon draws a human smile.
“Now leave it to me.”
