I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy - Chapter 391
Episode 391 Side story 1 Rapor’s Labyrinth (6)
Baek Woo-jin saw the labyrinth keeper after confirming the safety of Seo In-ah who arrived on the ground.
[I told you, didn’t I? I won’t do any mischief.]
The labyrinth keeper waved his hand as if he had no selfish intentions. Perhaps because it looked like a desert fox, its eyes looked clear.
[Please go back. The preparations have already been completed.]
When he tapped the floor with his front foot, a golden magic circle appeared right in front of him. It was the same shape as the magic circle that sent Seo In-ah and the talented people upward.
“i get it.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded and climbed onto the magic circle. I felt warm energy from the floor.
[I will upload it by express.]
“There is no need for speed, so just send it properly.”
[All right! Then, I will send it to you ‘for sure.’]
When the labyrinth keeper put his hands together, a magic circle rose up like a pillar.
Wooooow!
The magic circle that wrapped around his entire body vibrated violently, creating a bizarre pattern that looked like dried seaweed spread out.
The gold that covered the magic circle also turned purple and gave off a sickening odor.
[Khahahaha!]
The labyrinth keeper ripped open his mouth and burst into laughter.
[okay. I have to make sure to send it to you. To the afterlife!]
“You….”
[I can’t just let you go! I will send you to the gap in the dimension, tear you apart, and retrieve the spirit!]
The labyrinth keeper’s blue eyes burned with an ominous light.
“Wow, how did it turn out as expected?”
Baek Woo-jin clicked his tongue as he looked at the magic circle and the labyrinth keeper that dyed the space black.
[Even if I knew, it was already too late. That magic circle contains all the energy of the labyrinth that has been collected so far! No matter how much you do, you can’t escape!]
“Probably not.”
I snorted and pulled out my sword. The pure white sword body was filled with intention and aura and struck down.
Pakyaaaang!
Intense sparks exploded from the magic circle that struck the blade, and the entire magic circle shattered like thin glass.
[Ah ah….]
The labyrinth keeper stepped back with horrified eyes, but his back was blocked by a wall.
“Nothing is impossible if you sharpen your will. “I can tell what your intentions were.”
[Then…]
“Okay. “I knew you would come out like this from the beginning.”
The labyrinth keeper pretended to give in after being beaten, but his insides did not change. I just endured it, hiding my life behind a servile smile.
Because I expected the guy to attack me by pretending to send me up to the ground, I sent Seo In-ah and the others first.
[Queuuugh!]
“Besides, the energy source of this labyrinth is humans. “They’re going to go to another dimension and do something like this again, so we can’t just leave it there.”
Baek Woo-jin glared at the labyrinth keeper with cold eyes. As the darkness said, it was right to destroy this labyrinth so that it could never appear again.
[It is my job to move Rapport’s labyrinth! I was born for this job!]
As the labyrinth keeper screamed, his body began to inflate like a balloon.
Goat horns and hooves sprouted, and bulky muscles swelled like those of an ogre. Although it had a similar appearance to Baphomet, its body size and energy were several times greater.
That figure seemed to be the true body of the guy.
[I am only carrying out the duty given to me!]
The labyrinth keeper concentrated gloomy energy on both outstretched hands. It was the same mana that used to operate the magic circle.
“No, you changed the duty given to you to suit your taste.”
The labyrinth keeper set up the labyrinth without anyone’s permission, robbed the energy of those with abilities, and raised problems for which there was no answer. What he did was not a duty, it was just a joke.
[This labyrinth is like that in the first place!]
“There is nothing like that in the first place.”
[Shut up!]
The labyrinth keeper spread both hands as if throwing a ball. The energy compressed in both of his hands shot out like a cannonball.
“Changcheon!”
Baek Woo-jin placed the Seolyoung sword and shouted the name that Seo In-ah had given him. The golden sword that appeared cutting through space was caught in his grasp.
Ugh!
As if it had been abused by the labyrinth keeper, the blade of the Changcheon Sword was filled with the will to cut the guy down.
“I like the momentum.”
I nodded in satisfaction and looked ahead. A dark energy was flooding in, taking over the entire space.
I lowered the Changcheon Sword toward the center of that energy.
Quaaaaa!
The golden flash that bloomed from Changcheon Sword’s swordplay tore away all the gloomy energy that was visible before his eyes.
[Kaaaaaaak!]
The flash of light not only pierced the black energy, it even split the spirit and body of the labyrinth keeper.
[Off, but I am given it….]
“Everyone has circumstances. “What’s important is how you move and what you think within it.”
Baek Woo-jin lowered his eyes as he watched the labyrinth keeper scattering like burned paper.
“You crossed the line.”
**
Quang!
Intense light soared through the gaps in the pyramid, and an earth-shattering roar erupted.
Coo coo coo coo!
The huge pyramid that reached the sky began to collapse like a sand castle swept by waves.
“Huh!”
Seo In-ah looked at that and opened her eyes. I felt like my heart, which had been sleeping, was drying up.
“Oh, no!”
“Why are you doing this!”
“Ah, my head hurts so much, but why is this sister like this!”
As he was about to run into the dust storm, Moon Ju-young and Mu Young-gaek, who were behind him, grabbed his shoulders.
“There is Lord Baek in there! “We have to get it quickly!”
I shook off the hands of the two people and ran. However, the dust storm that rose up as the pyramid collapsed made it impossible to see ahead.
“Ah…”
The impact was so strong that the earth shook, my head became dizzy and I felt like I was going to collapse.
The lowest floor they were in was a long way away from here. Even if it was Baek Woo-jin, I didn’t think he could come up here from there.
“Ugh!”
Seo In-ah hit the floor with her closed fist.
‘I should have brought him out somehow…’
The regret that I should have moved with him, even if I had to force myself to hang on, washed over me like a wave.
“Oh, you’re worrying for nothing.”
Muyounggaek came next to me and sat down.
“You may not know this because he is not an unmanned person, but he is not the kind of person who will die in a place like this.”
“But the place we were was so low that it couldn’t be measured!”
“Because that person is a monster that will break through even if it is in the inner core. You just have to trust and wait. Oh, I want a goal. “What on earth happened to me?”
He said that and touched his temple.
“But we also need help….”
“I don’t think that’s necessary.”
“yes?”
“You are here.”
Moon Ju-young, who was behind him, pointed forward with his finger.
thud!
There was a tremor greater than when the pyramid collapsed.
Coo coo coo coo!
The earth shook like a volcano before it exploded, and a pillar of black light rose from the center of the sandstorm.
The pitch-black light crossed the earth, pierced the sky, and calmed the fierce storm.
“Ah…”
Seo In-ah moaned. A silhouette of a person appeared in the shadow of the sinking storm.
The person who broke through the sand and dust with a confident gait was Baek Woo-jin, who had been waiting.
“It’s all over.”
He smiled and waved as if nothing had happened.
“Lord Baek!”
Seo In-ah ran faster than anyone else and hugged Baek Woo-jin.
“Why are you here so late!”
“I told you I had work to do.”
Baek Woo-jin gently patted his crying back.
“Suddenly the ground shook and the pyramid collapsed…”
I was so shaken that I couldn’t say I was worried.
“I can’t just leave a guy like that alone. “It has been dealt with reliably.”
“It means that it was handled clearly…”
He laughed as he looked at the space where the pyramid disappeared.
“You will never build a labyrinth again.”
**
“Thank you for saving me!”
“Prosecutor! I believed it! hey!”
Moon Joo-young ran over and bowed his head, and Moo Young-gaek smiled slyly.
“Are there any problems with your body?”
Baek Woo-jin spread his energy and figured out the condition of the two people. Other than feeling a little upset, there didn’t seem to be any major problems.
“yes. “Except for a bit of a headache…”
“I just have a bit of a headache too.”
“Hmm.”
Looking around, I saw that not only Mu Young-gaek and Moon Ju-young were holding their heads, but also other people.
‘I guess it’s because I lost my energy after being brainwashed.’
The labyrinth keeper absorbed the energy of the talented people who entered the labyrinth and operated the labyrinth and the monsters outside.
Fortunately, the rescue was quick and no one seemed to have had any major problems.
“Baek Woo-jin.”
I turned my head when I heard a deep voice coming from behind me. It was Gwangryong, who frowned his forehead.
“Gwangryong.”
“Looks like you took care of it in the end.”
Gwangryong sighed softly.
“How did you get hit?”
“Time limit has been reached.”
“Time limit?”
“Because I couldn’t get through the maze for a day, I was automatically dragged in.”
“I didn’t know there was such a thing.”
It seemed like it was referring to the third or fourth layer of trials. There was no word, but I think 24 hours was the time limit.
‘It’s a good thing you brought Ina.’
If I had made a mistake, I would have been trapped in that labyrinth like a wild dragon.
“Thank you for saving me and the disciples. “I have nothing else to say.”
Gwangryong bowed deeply. It was a greeting that a subordinate would show to a superior.
“It was no big deal, get up. “You’re a doormat too.”
“It was a big deal for us. “If you still take pride in receiving favors, you are not worthy of becoming a ruler.”
Gwangryong bowed his head for a while along with the disciples behind him, then stood up.
“Well, I heard that Daeyeonmun is coming up again these days.”
Baek Woo-jin changed the topic to hide his embarrassment.
“There is still a long way to go to find the reputation we once had.”
“It’s the reputation it used to have…”
“There’s no need to worry.”
Gwangryong looked into his eyes and shook his head.
“I respect Master Moon of Jeondae’s actions, but I have no intention of following his path. “I plan to lead the guild based on what I have seen and learned while traveling around the world.”
“okay?”
Baek Woo-jin made eye contact with Gwang-ryong and lowered his head. Although he was the closest disciple to Master Daenmen, he pursued a different path. I felt like I could trust and watch.
“May you walk the path you want, Bhima.”
“hmm!”
Baek Woo-jin held out his hand. Gwangryong held hands and then left with the talented people who came with him.
“Lord Baek!”
“thank you!”
“It is the honor of a lifetime to be saved by the God of War!”
“Thank you for saving my life!”
As soon as the light dragon left, all the talented people held in the labyrinth came running.
“Wow!”
“Mushin! Mushin!”
Even the Association’s powerful men guarding the pyramid were deafened by their shouts of victory.
Baek Woo-jin smiled and waved to the people shouting his name.
**
“Huh…”
Lee Young-hyun let out a futile look as he saw Baek Woo-jin standing in the center of the crowd and enjoying the cheers.
‘He’s a great guy.’
I knew he was an extraordinary person from the beginning, but I never dreamed that he would become such a great hero as he is now.
‘How many times has this happened already?’
Baek Woo-jin cut down the world’s crisis without hesitation with a single sword. Without him, a quarter of our current population would have disappeared.
Now there was no one in the world who did not know the three letters of Baek Woo-jin’s name.
‘It’s thanks to him that I became the director.’
The reason he rose to the position of head of the Talent Association was because he received help from Baek Woo-jin.
He was a person who made me feel more than grateful and grateful.
“Thank you for always.”
Lee Young-hyun took a pose at attention and then bowed his head deeply and respectfully towards Baek Woo-jin.
“really.”
**
Seo In-ah brought Baek Woo-jin to Arcane under the excuse that she needed to show Kim Jang-hoon the Changcheon Sword.
“It’s been a while.”
The grandfather looked at Baek Woo-jin and lowered the bear he was holding. Gray smoke billowed from his mouth.
“Have you been healthy so far?”
“If you were worried, why didn’t you at least contact me?”
“I’m sorry.”
Baek Woo-jin scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.
“It’s a farm. This guy. “I know you’re busy.”
Grandpa chuckled and waved his finger.
“So, did you have a good time in the labyrinth?”
“It was very good!”
Seo In-ah intervened between the two.
“I went into the labyrinth and it was good?”
Kim Jang-hoon tilted his head after hearing his answer.
“It looks like you got something decent.”
“There was that, but there were also many better things.”
He smiled and looked at Baek Woo-jin next to him.
“Cluck.”
The grandfather laughed as if he understood what I meant.
“Lord Baek. “Please show your grandfather the sword we made.”
“Eh? “You two made a sword?”
“All right.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded and stretched out his hand.
“Changcheon.”
As he shouted the name of the sword, the air split and a golden sword came down.
“Ohh!”
Kim Jang-Hoon jumped up from his sitting position and ran towards Changcheon Sword.
“Is it between a traditional sword and a full sword? “It’s similar to the black sword you used before.”
“you’re right.”
“It’s a pretty well beaten sword. Was there even a blacksmith shop in the labyrinth? uh? for a moment! What is this metal! “Is this your first time seeing me?”
The grandfather’s eyes trembled as if he was embarrassed.
“It’s armanium!”
“Ugh!”
Kim Jang-hoon sat back down.
“Armanium is the legendary….”
“That’s right!”
“What the hell happened?!” “Tell me quickly!”
“Actually, in the labyrinth….”
Baek Woo-jin sat next to Kim Jang-hoon and began to talk about what happened in the labyrinth.
When I heard that they sharpened their sword blades while holding each other’s hands, my grandfather opened his mouth so wide that a fly could get in.
“Hehe.”
Seo In-ah smiled happily while listening to the conversation between Baek Woo-jin and Kim Jang-hoon.
In fact, the real reason I brought Baek Woo-jin here was because I wanted to be with him a little longer.
After giving a brief explanation to my grandfather, I wanted to spend some time alone, but just seeing the two of them chatting affectionately like grandchildren made me feel good. I feel like I have become family with him.
“Wait a minute! I’m missing something very important!”
Seo In-ah flopped down next to Baek Woo-jin, showing her excitement.
“I will never forget the scene where Woojin says to Sphinx, ‘I am the rule.’…”
Her face was slightly brightened as she smiled while touching shoulders with Baek Woojin.
