I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy - Chapter 387

Episode 387 Side Story 1 Rapor’s Labyrinth (2)

“Mr. Ina.”

Baek Woo-jin called out to Seo In-ah, who was standing blankly with her hands clasped together.

“If you just stay behind me, I will protect you no matter what happens.”

“Wow, can you say that one more time? “My heart is racing?”

Seo In-ah put her hand on her left breast and laughed. Seeing that his face was flushed, it seemed like he was sincere.

“Please turn off the recording app and speak.”

Looking at the smartphone she was holding, she let out a small sigh.

“no way.”

Seo In-ah closed the recording app and put her cell phone in her pocket.

“I’ll leave right away. “Please tell me if it’s faster.”

“yes!”

He pulled up his aura and walked towards the pyramid, wrapping himself and Seo In-ah in a circle.

Coo coo coo coo.

As was the case with the regen area, the dead monsters reappeared, but I swung the Seolyeong sword and cut off their heads.

“Ouch!”

“Guaaaagh!”

The moment we arrived at the pyramid, soldier ants and Sandman Sand Snakes started pouring out from the floor like melted butter.

I tried to deal with the monsters that came out, but they didn’t attack.

He ignored himself and Seo In-ah who had reached the pyramid and ran towards the Association’s talented people.

“Why aren’t they attacking us?”

“I don’t know either.”

Baek Woo-jin looked at the backs of the monsters and shook his head.

‘I think you should go in quickly.’

Considering the instincts of monsters, it is strange that they do not attack even though they do not emit particularly strong energy.

The labyrinth may be controlling the monsters’ behavior to attract people.

“It’s written here. Rapor’s Labyrinth!”

Seo In-ah pointed to the entrance to the pyramid. It was written in Korean that it was Laport’s Labyrinth.

“Whoever conquers Rapor’s Labyrinth will be able to obtain a treasure that will change their fate?”

Baek Woo-jin chuckled as he looked at the phrase written under the name of the labyrinth. Because of the saying that it was a treasure that would change one’s life, many rich moths entered that labyrinth and were unable to come out.

‘I don’t care about those guys…’

I wasn’t interested in those who were after the treasure, but I wanted to save those who entered the labyrinth to reduce damage like Gwangryong.

‘But where have I heard this name before…’

I felt like I had heard somewhere that it was Rapor’s Labyrinth. However, no matter how hard I thought about it, I couldn’t remember it.

Given the bad vibes, it didn’t seem like a land of opportunity to obtain treasure that would change fate.

“Mr. Ina.”

After Baek Woo-jin gathered his thoughts, he called Seo In-ah.

“yes?”

“I might force you to fall inside the labyrinth, so I think it would be best to hold your hand and go in.”

“Ah, I get it!”

Seo In-ah swallowed dry saliva. She rubbed her right hand on her pants and then took her left hand.

Her hands were hard and rough with calluses.

“Well… my hands are a little rough, aren’t they?”

Seo In-ah scratched her cheek as if she was embarrassed.

“It’s just as hard as my hand.”

Baek Woo-jin smiled as he said something that, if he had heard it, would have made him yell, ‘You crazy!’

“Ugh, that much…”

“That’s why it’s so cool.”

“yes?”

“Ina is a recognized craftsman. “It’s proof that you worked hard at your job, so there’s no need to be ashamed.”

“Ah…”

Seo In-ah looked at herself in fascination, like a puppy looking at its owner, and then lowered her head with her face as red as a ripe apple.

“We don’t have time, so let’s go in first.”

“Ah yes.”

Baek Woo-jin held the hand of Seo In-ah, whose voice had diminished, and entered the entrance to the pyramid.

The inside was a straight road. There was a light bulb in the ceiling, so even though there was no light coming in, it wasn’t dark at all.

Because many people had already passed by, everything that looked like a trap had been dismantled.

“There’s a door over there!”

As Seo In-ah said, at the end of the road there was a stone gate that radiated golden light like the outside of a pyramid.

The stone gate had drawings of pyramids, sphinxes and pharaohs.

“Hmm…”

Baek Woo-jin frowned as he looked at the stone gate.

“why?”

“It seems like there is a space behind this door other than the pyramid.”

The back of the stone gate was empty. You will probably be transported to another location the moment you cross this door.

“It could be dangerous. “If you die now…”

“I can’t just leave now that I’ve come this far.”

Seo In-ah shook her head vigorously. Her right hand, which was holding her left hand, tightened.

“Paekgar Lord, it won’t be difficult to break through the labyrinth on your own, but if you have my tool, you will be able to move much faster. “I can guarantee it!”

She looked at herself with a confident face like a general on the battlefield. As expected, he was a person full of confidence when it came to tools.

“All right.”

Baek Woo-jin opened the stone door, feeling the warmth and confidence coming from her hand.

“I will believe it.”

As soon as the stone door opened, an intense light appeared, along with the sensation of my body floating, like when an airplane was taking off.

When I closed my eyes and opened them, a place appeared where everything was immersed in darkness.

“What is this place?”

Seo In-ah, standing on the left, trembled her hands. Fortunately, I didn’t get separated from her.

“It feels like we’ve arrived at a real labyrinth…”

As I was answering her, I heard the sound of something falling from the ceiling.

Peeeeee!

A sharp sound. It was an arrow.

Whoa!

Baek Woo-jin raised his sword and cut upward once. A wall of wind spread out from the sword mark that appeared in the air, deflecting the falling arrows.

“You’re starting right away without giving me time to prepare….”

“You can’t move carelessly from now on. “Stay behind me.”

“yes.”

Baek Woo-jin blocked Seo In-ah. I felt her behind me grabbing the black gun.

[Welcome to Rapor’s Labyrinth.]

[The trials of the first floor. The night maze begins.]

[Go through the maze where you cannot see even an inch ahead and head to the entrance of the second floor.]

I heard someone’s voice in my ear.

“Someone just said…”

“It seems like an explanation automatically given to anyone who enters the labyrinth.”

There was no emotion in the voice. It seemed like someone managing this labyrinth had put out a pre-recording.

“It looks like a maze here too. Shall I use the navigation?”

“wait a minute.”

I waved my hands and spread the spirit. This space was a dark and complicated maze, but there were no devices on the walls themselves.

‘I can feel all the organs.’

The location and method of the organs installed in the maze are also identified. The first floor was only dark and not very difficult.

“I think we can just leave here.”

“You’re just leaving?”

“I don’t think it will be difficult.”

“Well then, the labyrinth navigator…”

“The labyrinth is just beginning. “There will be a place where Ina’s power will be needed later, so save it.”

“Yes…”

Seo In-ah’s shoulders slumped despite her own comfort.

‘There’s no need to tell me.’

I didn’t say this for nothing. This labyrinth is wide and deep. There will definitely be times when you will need her tools.

“I’m leaving.”

Baek Woo-jin said that and broke the wall of the maze with his sword.

“Oh my…”

He looked back at Seo In-ah, who was embarrassed as she looked at the collapsing wall, and smiled.

“In a straight line to the exit.”

**

In a space that stretched like a bridge, everything visible, from the floor to the walls and ceiling, was colored gold, and there was a huge monster.

The monster was lying on the ground on all fours like an animal, but it had the face of a beautiful woman, and on its head it wore alternating black and gold stripes.

It was the appearance of the Sphinx, which remains in Egyptian mythology or as a stone statue.

The Sphinx radiated nobility despite its strange appearance: the face of a beautiful woman, the body of a lion, and the tail of a snake.

“There will be two new slaves.”

The Sphinx smiled and tapped the floor with her paw, and a translucent screen appeared in front of her.

What appeared on the screen was a tall handsome man with black hair and a cute woman who made me want to pet him just by looking at him.

“Where are those two going to stop… hmm?”

Sphinx, who had been circling and casting his gaze at the screen, narrowed his eyes.

With a light swing of his sword, the man broke through the first trial of the labyrinth filled with numerous traps and institutions.

It didn’t just destroy the organ, it also collapsed the walls of the maze and advanced in a straight line toward the exit.

Even though I was just looking at the screen, I felt like I could hear the sound of institutions and walls collapsing.

“You are an ignorant bastard.”

Sphinx erased his slightly embarrassed expression and placed his chin on the floor again.

“It’s not a bad method, but you can’t get this far with that method.”

She let out a drowsy voice and curled the corners of her mouth.

“You will die in the third trial.”

**

“Wow…”

Seo In-ah laughed as she looked at Baek Woo-jin’s back.

‘I never thought they would destroy everything.’

Baek Woo-jin arrived at the third floor by destroying the maze on the first floor where the institution was installed and the maze on the second floor where monsters were located.

‘You can’t believe you’re so fast while protecting me perfectly…’

There were no gaps in Baek Woo-jin’s space. Even when an arrow was suddenly shot and a monster popped out from the floor, he was able to easily block it.

I knew he was strong, but it seemed like even the title of God of War wasn’t enough anymore.

“This is…”

Baek Woo-jin’s hurried steps stopped at the entrance to the third floor.

“I guess I can’t go on like before.”

“yes?”

“The walls here have a foreign energy. If you touch it, it seems like the space will change or you will be forcibly moved to another place. The energy doesn’t spread properly…”

He frowned as he looked at the huge maze walls on the third floor.

[Third layer of trials. The Maze of Illusion begins.]

[Anyone who touches the walls and floor of the Maze of Illusion will be trapped in a dimension from which they can never escape.] [

Overcome the lies and head to the entrance of the fourth floor.]

“It’s a trick… ..”

Considering that the explanation was not to touch the walls and floor, it seems that Baek Woo-jin’s prediction was correct.

“Let’s light the smoke beads first.”

Baek Woo-jin took out the latest smoke bead from his subspace pocket and activated it.

Sigh.

The smoke from the bead spread toward the path of the maze and suddenly disappeared.

“Is this not working too?”

“It’s not a malfunction.”

The smoke ball that Baek Woo-jin took out did not work even though it was not malfunctioning. The problem seemed to be caused by a strange force operating in this space.

“Then it’s Ina’s turn.”

Baek Woo-jin looked at himself and smiled.

“I told you. “I’m sure there will come a time when it will be helpful.”

“Hehe!”

Seo In-ah smiled like a puppy and took out a smartphone-like device from her subspace pocket.

“Smartphone?”

“This is the maze navigation. “If you determine the frequency of the mana spread in this space, a map of the maze will appear.”

“Huh…”

Baek Woo-jin’s eyebrows went up. Seeing him bewildered somehow made me feel better.

Ugh.

When I activated the maze navigation, the mana value of the current space began to appear on the screen.

‘This is why I came.’

Seo In-ah’s eyes lit up as she looked at the information that came to mind.

When commercialized, Navi will be able to calculate that information on its own, but now users have to calculate it themselves.

Currently, the only person who could analyze that information and put it into the navigation system was myself.

“Uhm….”

Seo In-ah, who was operating the navigation system, bit her lip.

‘Why isn’t this working?’

Perhaps because of the unique mana flow inside the labyrinth, it was not easy to match the frequency. It continued to deviate little by little.

It should have been done in 10 minutes at the latest, but there was no progress even after 20 minutes.

I glanced back. Baek Woo-jin was standing there motionless, looking at himself.

“I’m sorry. “This didn’t work out…”

I had prepared so much, but it didn’t work out, so my insides turned black.

“We gained time on the first and second floors, so take your time.”

He said that and laughed. It was a smile without the slightest irritation or complaint.

‘okay. He’s always been like that.’

From the first time we went to the Regen area together, Baek Woo-jin did not urge us. He just quietly protected himself.

As time passed, Baek Woo-jin’s status changed a lot from then, but his personality and inclinations did not change at all.

“Slowly…”

Seo In-ah adjusted the frequency of the navigation device again, feeling Baek Woo-jin’s trust and consideration behind her.

‘Calm down.’

Perhaps it was because he felt at ease or because of Baek Woo-jin’s trust, but he could feel the mana frequency shaking.

‘This is shaking!’

We finally found the factor that was preventing us from understanding the frequency. When I adjusted the navigation to include the vibration, a cool notification sound sounded.

Ding!

[Analysis of the maze begins.]

The navigator vibrated harshly and a hologram appeared on the screen.

“it’s okay!”

Seo In-ah burst into cheers. A map of a huge maze began to appear on the hologram, as if printing letters on a printer.

It was a maze so complicated and grand that it took several days to pass.

“It was like this.”

Baek Woo-jin was confused as he looked at the hologram. He had no idea that he would be able to figure out this huge maze in such a short time.

But the real thing started now.

“Not yet.”

When Seo In-ah pointed to the hologram, a red line began to be drawn on the map of the completed maze.

“Maze Navi’s real abilities start now!”
