I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy - Chapter 71
Episode 71 Assassination Mission (4)
Lee In-seong was mesmerized by the appearance of a huge fire dragon that illuminated the darkness.
I don’t know what on earth Baek Woo-jin summoned or what it is.
But I could feel the immense power that the dragon possessed.
“Ugh….”
Lee In-seong grabbed his neck.
The heat the dragon gave off was so intense that it was difficult to even breathe.
“I summoned another guy because you said I couldn’t give him a reward, so what do you think?”
“That…”
“Are you satisfied?”
“I made a mistake, no mistake. “You were wrong!”
Lee In-seong realized that he could not defeat the fire dragon in front of him from the front, so he knelt down and hit his head.
‘Jacques!’
Lee In-seong called out to his commander with his head on the ground.
‘Use the Roar of the Dead on Baek Woo-jin!’
Lee In-seong did not give up.
The intention was not to target Hwaryong, but Baek Woo-jin, the summoner.
He instructed the commander to attack and used the level 7 magic he had prepared in advance.
“it’s okay.”
When Lee In-seong was about to attack, Baek Woo-jin’s cold words were heard.
“It’s obvious what a guy like you thinks.”
The Flame Dragon’s mouth opened following Baek Woo-jin’s fingers.
A red flame flickered within that would erase everything.
“Zach! Ice Cannon!”
Lee In-seong jumped up, activated Zach’s morale, and used the 7th grade magic ice cannon.
Quaaaaa!
Purple energy burst out like a storm from the spirit’s mouth, and blue rays that could even freeze the air poured out from Lee In-seong’s hands.
It was an attack with enormous destructive power that exceeded level 7, but Lee In-seong’s whole body trembled as if he had seen a ghost.
This was because the results he had hoped for did not come true.
Hwaaaaaaa!
The flame dragon’s prominence burned away the ice rays and erased the storm of morale.
Everything Lee In-seong had was powerless in front of the boiling red flames.
[Quuuuuu!]
A tearing scream burst from the commander’s mouth.
The red flame that erased the spirit’s roar and ice cannon was melting the spirit’s armor and destroying its body.
“Zach! go back! “Zach!”
Lee In-seong tried to send the commander back, but it was already too late.
[Off…]
The soul of the evil spirit was engulfed in red flames and disappeared without even leaving behind a single handful of ashes.
Whoa!
When the spirit disappeared, hundreds of white energies appeared and gathered around Baek Woo-jin.
‘This is…’
– It’s a soul that was eaten by a ghost.
‘As expected.’
As the darkness said, it seems that the people who were eaten by the evil spirit suffered in its stomach.
“Kwaaaaaak!”
Lee In-seong ripped his own head and let out a horrifying scream.
The contracted spirit disappears and the morale disappears.
“Ah…”
Lee In-seong, whose morale was gone, looked like he was 50 years older.
He went from being a dignified middle-aged man to an old man with age spots on the verge of death.
“Save me! please! “I will turn myself in…”
“There is no need.”
Baek Woo-jin cut off Lee In-seong.
Even though he looked like an old man, there was no sympathy for Lee In-seong.
“Step on it.”
[Crrrrr…]
The Flame Dragon raised its huge paw and struck Lee In-seong down.
“Kaaaaaaak!”
Lee In-seong’s body turned red after being stepped on by the dragon.
Instead of killing him right away, he only made him feel the worst pain of being burned.
“Wow!”
“The pain of those whose souls were eaten by the evil spirit would have been worse.”
“Kill the Lord! “Kill me!”
“no.”
“Aaaahhh!”
The Flame Dragon gave Lee In-seong the worst pain a living human could feel and then took his last breath.
“Good work.”
[Crying!]
“Now turn off the light.”
The Flame Dragon snorted once, erased all the spreading flames, and returned to the spirit world.
Whoa whoa.
When Lee In-seong died, the white spirits circled around Baek Woo-jin and then disappeared somewhere.
-It seems like they are thanking you.
“I don’t know where I’m going, but I hope you feel comfortable now.”
Baek Woo-jin sighed and looked up at the dark night sky where the souls had disappeared.
-But that is.
As Baek Woo-jin was scanning the mountain in case there were embers elsewhere, darkness spoke to him.
“why?”
-Is this an assassination? It was really bombarded?
“Is assassination a big deal? “If there are no witnesses, it’s an assassination.”
Baek Woo-jin looked around at the mess around him and laughed.
-Huh…
Baek Woo-jin’s confident words left the darkness speechless.
-This guy is proudly crazy.
“Did I know it would become this big?”
I thought about beating up necromancers, but I never imagined that I would be saving 100 people and fighting a higher-ranking necromancer.
“I didn’t know there were 100 people being held captive and that I would see a superior commander.”
The superior command that Lee In-seong uses is a monster that only appears six years later.
To be honest, if we didn’t have Flame Dragon, we would have been in big trouble.
When Baek Woo-jin was resting on the mountainside after organizing everything, he heard busy noises coming from the abandoned building.
“It looks like you’re here.”
Looking down the hill, I saw many people gathered around the abandoned building.
-Are these the people you called?
“okay. But did Manager Younghyun Lee notice me? “You’ve come further than I expected.”
Perhaps fully aware of the seriousness of the situation, dozens of people, including talented people and association employees, appeared in front of the abandoned building with lights on.
“I was starting to have a headache, but it’s okay.”
Baek Woo-jin confirmed that Lee Young-hyun was there and disappeared like smoke.
**
“Chief! “I think it’s this building.”
“I don’t see any abandoned buildings except here.”
“Necromancers may come out from within! The assault team secures the entrance and the rest surrounds the building! “Exploration Team 2 should check the summit of the mountain.”
“All right!”
Under Lee Young-hyeon’s instructions, the association’s talented people moved quickly.
“Chief. “There is a magic circle on the building.”
“Magic circle?”
“It is an illusion magic that hides the inside.”
“Other than that?”
“doesn’t exist.”
“Then release it. When the spell is lifted, everyone except the emergency team and the siege team will enter the building!”
“yes!”
At Lee Young-hyeon’s command, the Association’s powerful people swallowed their saliva and looked at the entrance of the building.
“A necromancer…”
“If they’re meeting in a place like this, it means there aren’t just one or two people.”
“I’m going to have a hard time.”
Because the abilities of necromancers are difficult and powerful, those with abilities calmed down.
Their hands holding the weapons were shaking slightly, as if they were nervous.
Chaaaang!
The illusion was broken and the inside of the building began to be revealed.
“enter!”
Dozens of talented people ran to the building under Lee Yeon-hyeon’s instructions.
“uh?”
“What is this!”
People who entered the building stopped as if they were fascinated by the shocking sight.
“What on earth…”
“What happened here?”
A strange magic circle was drawn in the middle of the first floor, split in half, and 100 people were standing there in a daze.
Around the magic circle, about 30 people with abilities were dead with their heads pierced.
It was a situation that made no common sense.
“Chief!”
“Oh yeah.”
Younghyun Lee was also unable to come to his senses due to the unexpected sight.
“The district emergency team will check people’s conditions, and the rest will begin an internal investigation!”
“yes!”
After giving instructions, Younghyun Lee approached the corpse right in front of him.
Seeing that he was wearing a purple robe, he seemed to be the necromancer that Baek Woo-jin had mentioned.
“Hmm…”
It seemed as if the corpse had been killed instantly as its head was pierced by an attack that it could not even react to.
“Is this guy also a necromancer?”
Younghyun Lee also checked the condition of the man next to him.
The head was equally open from bottom to top.
These weren’t the only ones.
All the corpses were pierced to death by equally powerful auras.
“Who used this ridiculous technology?”
“It’s a sword! “I killed everyone at the same time with the aura contained in the sword!”
The faces of the talented people who checked the corpses turned pale.
I got goosebumps all over my body at the ridiculous ability of the person who killed them.
“Chief of department. They were all attacked at once. And that too for just one person.”
“okay. “It feels like I’m dreaming.”
Even for wizards, the level of warriors was over level 5.
It meant that the speed and power of the auror was amazing.
‘You’ve grown again. It’s incomparable to before…’
Lee Young-hyun stuck out his tongue.
Baek Woo-jin’s growth really went beyond common sense.
“Chief! “People are hypnotized!”
“Who are the injured?”
“Not one!”
“Is there really no one?”
“yes!”
“Huh….”
“Crazy!”
The soul drained from the faces of Younghyun Lee and the talented people of the association.
It was beyond surprising and shocking to see that he could kill 30 strong men and not cause any harm to the hostages.
“Un-hypnotize me first.”
“yes!”
“Chief! “Please come this way!”
At Kang Hyo-seop’s call, Lee Young-hyun approached the corner.
“This guy is Park In-seop.”
“Park Inseop? Berken mercenary leader?”
“you’re right. “He is the leader of those dirty bastards.”
“Wow.”
Younghyun Lee sat back down.
As expected, the warriors here were no strangers.
The Berken Mercenary Group is a mercenary group that only picks dirty jobs.
As expected of people who only do bad things, they revealed their money, but their skills were clear.
“I don’t have the energy to be surprised anymore.”
He dealt with 17 Berken mercenaries and necromancers at the same time, and even killed Park In-seop, who was above level 6, in one go.
I couldn’t even guess how strong Baek Woo-jin was.
“What kind of monster did this? “The manager spoke on the phone.”
Younghyun Lee shook his head.
“I do not know. “Who is he?…”
Younghyun Lee looked up at the burned-out peak of the mountain, spitting out words with two meanings.
**
“There were corpses of 29 necromancers and 14 of their disciples, including mercenary leader Birken, inside and outside the abandoned building. “We discovered an additional necromancer’s body at the top of the mountain, bringing the total number of criminals to 44.”
Because it was such a big incident, the association held a press conference, and Lee Young-hyun, who was in charge, was conducting the press conference.
“Who is the necromancer we found on the mountain?”
“This is Lee In-seong, the guild master of Bains.”
“omg!”
“Uh oh…”
The news was so shocking that the reporters’ pens and hands stopped working.
“Was Lee In-seong also a necromancer?”
“That’s right. “Like other necromancers, traces of necromanticism were found in Lee In-seong’s house.”
“You pretend to be nice all by yourself!”
“Lee In-seong is from Lucas!”
“It’s Lucas again. It’s going to be a mess. Is Bitcoin really going down along with it?”
The reporters’ typing skills became faster.
“Are there any injuries to the people you saved?”
“I was just under strong hypnosis. “There is no problem with everyone’s health.”
“They say he killed a necromancer and 30 mercenaries at the same time with a sword. Who on earth did this? “What is your ability level?”
“I don’t know who it is because they haven’t revealed their identity. “Our Association of Talents has decided to award the title of ‘Hyeokgeom’ to the talent who solved this problem.”
Younghyun Lee spit out the name ‘Hyeopgeom’.
That wasn’t his will, it was an order from above.
“It is said that there was a fight between the fire spirit and the evil spirit at the top of the mountain. “What happened?”
“When we went, the situation was already over so we couldn’t check.”
Witnesses could not clearly see the flame dragon because they saw it from a distance.
They only testified that it was a fire spirit or a flame summoner.
“There is a saying that he is Baek Woo-jin of Shingeombaekga?”
“I heard it too. “Several hostages testified that they saw Baek Woo-jin’s face.”
“I heard that Manager Lee Young-hyun spoke directly on the phone. Do you know anything? “Have you tried tracking it?”
“I spoke on the phone, but I don’t even know who he is. It may be Prosecutor Baek Woo-jin. “The call was a tracking-protection call…”
Lee Young-hyun continued speaking without being embarrassed at all.
Pop.
Baek Woo-jin turned off the TV and frowned.
“How did the hostages see me?”
-Just because you’re hypnotized doesn’t mean you can’t see everything. It feels like I’m dreaming. I’m sure a few people with keen senses saw you destroy the command post.
“I see. “I went close to break up the command post.”
Baek Woo-jin sighed.
-It doesn’t really matter if your identity is revealed, right? Since he killed criminals and not ordinary people, he would be praised.
“I didn’t expect it, but of course it’s a good thing. Because my awareness and likeability will increase tremendously. “But if you do this, it won’t be an assassination.”
-What you did was unparalleled. It wasn’t an assassination?
“As I said last time, if there are no witnesses, it’s just an assassination.”
-Ugh…
Baek Woo-jin woke up while hearing the sigh of darkness.
-Where are you going?
“Ara, it’s a day to watch training.”
**
“Huh! “Huh!”
Hong A-ra was lying on the floor, out of breath.
Her whole body was drenched in sweat.
“great job.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled with satisfaction as he sheathed the training sword.
“It shows you trained hard.”
With the sparring just now, Hong A-ra’s skill evaluation was completed.
Her skills were such that there would be no problem even if she was thrown into a level 2 dungeon alone.
“thank you!”
Hong A-ra jumped up while panting.
-You really did everything you asked. That child has tremendous trust in you. It’s like a baby bird following its mother bird.
‘I am very kind to the people below me.’
Baek Woo-jin looked at Hong A-ra, who was catching her breath, and Moon Joo-young, who had a proud face.
It was a natural reaction since they were giving them the best treatment possible.
‘My goal is to fill Baekga with people like that. Then, naturally, Baekga, not the four major guilds, will become the best guild.’
Currently, the Baek family is maintained by Baek Tian-hwa’s overwhelming force.
It allows those with talent to learn strong swordsmanship and the mission rewards are clear, but there are many disadvantages beyond that.
‘I will change all those evils.’
Baek Woo-jin once again reflected on his goal.
“Moon Guard.”
“yes!”
Moon Joo-young approached Baek Woo-jin.
“Please arrange a level 1 dungeon for Ara to go to.”
“All right.”
Moon Joo-young smiled and nodded.
“With your current skills, level 1 monsters won’t be difficult. But monsters aren’t the only things to watch out for in dungeons. “Go and learn well this time.”
“Over there, master. Behind him…”
Hong A-ra’s eyes were not on Baek Woo-jin, but behind his back.
“huh?”
When Baek Woo-jin looked back, his eyes grew as big as a flower lantern.
