Episode 62. Baek Woo-jin smiled happily
as he saw several reward windows appear in front of him.
There were more than one benefit I gained from coming here.
First, a new geomro, Nakseongwihwa, was opened.
Nakseongwihwa is a linked sword with three levels.
The first sword contained the attributes of Zhong and was able to hit the enemy, and the second sword contained the properties of Byeon and Hwan, allowing it to create fantastic black fire with aura.
‘It feels a little out of place with flowers and stars, but it’s not bad.’
-It’s not that bad. Because there are infinite ways to apply the sword, even a stronger expert than you will not have an easy time dealing with your sword.
‘yes.’
Baek Woo-jin nodded.
One of Geomro’s great advantages was that the herbivorous system was so relaxed that it was possible to overcome it even if it became known to the enemy.
‘I didn’t know I would receive additional rewards for both quests.’
-It was really at the level of giving away points with a basket.
‘I admit it this time.’
2200 points have been accumulated, and there is also a reward of 10,000 swords that was not received.
I gained an absurd amount in a short period of time.
“Branch manager.”
Baek Woo-jin approached Jung Woo-hyun with brisk steps.
“how is it? “You did as I said, right?”
“I see.”
Jung Woo-hyun shook his head violently to come to his senses.
“young master. “Did you really think this through from the beginning?”
“Sure. I told you so. “I will fight alone.”
“Huh…”
Jung Woo-hyun lost all of his composure again.
It was amazing.
Baek Woo-jin’s military power and strategy were on a different level from his own.
I saw many geniuses when I was at home, but this was my first time seeing a prosecutor like Baek Woo-jin.
“Now go back. “I think you’ll have a lot to do when you go.”
“Oh, that’s right.”
Jung Woo-hyun nodded.
Since the territory and power that the Daeyeonmun branch had consumed must be absorbed into the Baekga branch, his work began now.
“Sort! Everyone, get ready to go back!”
“yes!”
At Jung Woo-hyeon’s shout, the Baek family prosecutors took their seats behind him.
Their expressions were full of pride, different from when they entered this place.
Baek Woo-jin was so proud that his shoulders were tense.
“let’s go!”
“for a moment!”
Jung Woo-hyun was in the front line, and when the prosecutors were about to drag him out, Baek Woo-jin urgently stopped everyone.
“young master?”
The prosecutors looked back at Baek Woo-jin with a puzzled expression.
“Wait.”
Baek Woo-jin raised his hand and then stood in front of Jung Woo-hyun and looked at the gate.
The onlookers split to the left and right, and a large man over 2 meters tall entered the branch.
The giant was wearing a tight-fitting black military uniform and had a golden cow engraved on his left chest.
-It looks like a bear, but it is strong. He’s stronger than the Kim Seong-je you dealt with.
‘I have no choice but to be strong.’
-Do you know this guy?
‘okay. This is Kang Seong-hun, the black cow, one of the twelve disciples of Daeyeonmunju.’
-Black cow? The title is strange.
‘Daeyeonmunju gave his disciples the titles of the 12 zodiac signs and gave them the title of lord.’
The title is not the only characteristic of the disciples who studied under Daeyeonmunju.
Even though they were executed, they all had different abilities.
-But why did that guy come here?
‘When I broke down the gate, I must have contacted Daeyeonmun headquarters. It must have appeared through the teleportation door.’
-Did you even expect that guy to show up?
‘I thought someone would come, but I didn’t know that guy would come. If I do well, I might be able to catch that guy too.’
Baek Woo-jin looked at Kang Seong-hoon and relaxed his fingers.
So that I can draw my sword at any time.
“Baek Woo-jin of Shingeombaekga.”
Kang Seong-hoon walked towards Baek Woo-jin, who was in front.
“Did you do this?”
“however?”
“Explain the situation.”
“why me?”
Baek Woo-jin smiled provocatively.
The expression on his face was that he would attack as much as he wanted.
Coo coo coo coo.
A heavy force that weighed down the audience flowed from Kang Seong-hoon.
The intention is to put pressure on Baek Woo-jin with momentum.
“Don’t act in vain.”
Baek Woo-jin waved his hand with a calm expression.
To him who could withstand Baek Cheon-hwa’s momentum, Kang Seong-Hoon’s momentum was nothing more than a harsh wind.
“Hmm…”
Kang Seong-hoon frowned at Baek Woo-jin, whose expression did not change.
‘What is this guy’s confidence?’
I couldn’t understand why they were attacking Daeyeonmun’s branch and calling for such leisure.
“My lord! “I will tell you.”
Daeyeonmun’s senior prosecutor approached Seonghun Kang and explained the situation.
“You idiot!”
Intense anger bloomed in Kang Seong-hoon.
The target was not Baek Woo-jin, but Kim Seong-je, who was already dead.
I decided to make a bet that didn’t even make sense and gritted my teeth at the frustration of being beaten by Baek Woo-jin.
“Hey there, master. Wouldn’t it be better for us to stop going back now? “If you stay here, you and that monster…”
“Please wait a moment.”
-What are you trying to do?
‘I’m going to start a fight.’
Baek Woo-jin approached Kang Seong-hoon.
“Seongje Kim is dead, so take responsibility and withdraw the Daeyeonmun branch from Cheongju.”
“You are a completely different person from what I heard.”
Kang Seon-hoon turned his head and let out a cold glare.
“No, I’m a good person just like they say.”
Baek Woo-jin continued speaking with a cold smile.
“He’s just not a brat who quietly tolerates his territory being invaded.”
-okay. I don’t know anything else, but my personality is cool. Like a crazy person.
The darkness flashed its blade as if in agreement.
“Please confirm that the Daeyeonmun branch is withdrawing from Cheongju.”
Seonghun Kang did not answer but looked around.
Many people were still watching this place, and drones and wizards’ search vision were also floating in the air.
“…i get it. “Resign from Cheongju.”
Seonghun Kang closed his eyes and sighed.
Since this is known to so many people, if you act unreasonably, it will only damage Daeyeonmun’s image.
The right thing to do here is to step down.
‘Resigning from Cheongju is not a big problem. The biggest problem is this guy Baek Woo-jin.’
While Kang Seong-hoon was examining Baek Woo-jin, he felt a strange sensation of goosebumps running down his spine.
It was like an abyss with no end.
If I could fight Baek Woo-jin and win, I wanted to deal with it no matter what happened next, but I wasn’t sure I could kill him.
‘He didn’t show any force on purpose, but he’s still very cautious.’
Baek Woo-jin let out a sigh of regret.
Even though I relaxed my body to attack, I was not provoked.
Kang Seong-hoon, the black cow, was a warrior who was more cautious than expected.
‘What a shame. It would have been perfect if I had caught this guy too.’
-Then just throw the knife. Just like before, on stage.
‘Unlike before, there is no justification.’
If you start a fight with someone who wants to step down, this side becomes evil. That wasn’t what he wanted.
-That guy doesn’t deserve his name. His name is Heukwoo, but he acts like a rat.
‘That’s right. It would have been perfect if it had attacked me like a real black ox.’
It would have been nice if Black Ox had started the fight first, but he didn’t move until the end.
“Branch manager. Because they said they were going. “Let’s go back now.”
“Ah yes!”
Baek Woo-jin took Jeong Woo-hyeon with him and left the Daeyeonmun branch.
‘Black cow. Seonghun Kang.’
In his past life, he was a warrior who gave goosebumps just by hearing his title, but now he only looked like a cow that he would have to kill and eat sooner or later.
**
The story that Baek Woo-jin killed Kim Seong-je and withdrew the Daeyeonmun branch spread like the wind.
-Baek Woo-jin beat Kim Seong-je? Daeyeonmun’s level 6 inspection?
-The world is going crazy for a 16-year-old to get 6th grade.
-Baek Woo-jin is Baek Woo-jin. Is there any problem?
-What’s in your head? It’s not just rank 6, it’s rank 6 of the 4th major guild, Daeyeonmun!
The talented players that Baek Woo-jin has defeated so far were, so to speak, people close to the late-stage prospects.
However, since Kim Seong-je was a somewhat mature prosecutor and belonged to Daeyeonmun, he could not help but be astonished.
-That’s not all. Baek Woo-jin finally used a sword technique other than the basic sword technique.
-You couldn’t see it clearly in the video.
-I saw it in person in Cheongju and it was not human swordsmanship. A flower blooms from a sword. Wow, I really can’t say that unless I see it in person. They say you just stare blankly into space.
The news that Baek Woo-jin used new sword techniques beyond the basic sword techniques also heated people’s interest.
-The most surprising thing is that the Daeyeonmun branch was withdrawn. Until now, there has never been a branch of the Daeyeonmun branch withdrawn. A 16-year-old from Shingeombaekga did something that no one else could do.
Baek Woo-jin’s fame was rising beyond what he thought.
**
“I will receive a reward of ten thousand swords.”
As soon as Baek Woo-jin returned to his family, he received the reward of 10,000 swords.
Ten cards with long swords on them appeared before his eyes.
‘Darkness.’
-What?
‘Are you lucky?’
-What are you talking about all of a sudden?
‘I always cringe every time I play the lottery. You take your pick.’
Baek Woo-jin pointed to the card.
-I am the most idiot among idiots. It’s obvious that the worst of those cards will come out. Just take your pick.
‘Because it seems like you’re going to do something about the system and blah, blah, blah. Just pick it yourself.’
The benefits have already been gained.
The reward for the 10,000 swords was rare even if you picked the lowest one, so it didn’t matter which one you got.
-Don’t regret it.
‘Oh, make a decision quickly. The liver is the size of a pea.’
-Ugh…
Darkness flew away, moving around quickly between the cards as if he was thinking about it.
After thinking for a while, Heukam stood in front of the third card without confidence.
-I think I’m attracted to this…
‘I guess? Confidence is swimming at the bottom.’
-This bastard. What I said before…
Baek Woo-jin was repeating back exactly what Darkness had said to him.
‘It’s the size of a bean, so there’s no way I can use it.’
Baek Woo-jin snorted and approached the third card.
-I didn’t make a living off of luck like you, but fought with only skill. This world…you bastard! Listen to me!
Baek Woo-jin chose the third card before the darkness finished speaking.
Flash!
Unlike the story of darkness, a bright red light that seemed to set the room on fire erupted from the card.
-Les Legendaries?
‘I’m lucky.’
Baek Woo-jin chuckled and placed his hand on the light.
[The door to increase the level of linked swords has been opened.]
[Check your proficiency.]
[Raises the grade of all swords to the highest grade, level 2.]
-It is the door to swordsman upgrades, but why is it red?
‘They say it sets all swords’ grades to level 2.’
-Ah…
‘I could only pick Unique for Sword Rising, but you picked Legendary. thanks!’
-This is not it…
The scene that Darkness imagined was that Rare came out and Baek Woo-jin got annoyed and laughed at the sight.
I never dreamed that a Legendary would appear from the card I drew.
[The level of Guan Ilgeuk increases to level 2.]
[The accuracy of Guan Ilgeuk increases.]
[The activation speed of Guan Ilgeuk increases.]
[Understanding of straight swords increases.]
[The level of Luo Seongwihwa increases. It rises to level 2.]
[The heavy pressure of the 1st sword of Falling Star Wars becomes heavier.]
[The changes in the 2nd sword of Falling Star Wars increase.]
[Understanding of the sword increases.]
‘I can’t believe you go to level 2 as soon as you learn it. It’s shit.’
-It can’t be…
A mesmerized voice came from the darkness.
Previous owners had also selected cards, but most of them were bad and at best rare.
No matter how much it was a reward for a ten thousand sword starting from rare, getting a legendary was far from one’s luck.
-system! okay. It’s clear that the system has done something! This is not my luck!
‘Status window.’
-Listen to me!
Baek Woo-jin ignored the words of darkness again and opened the status window.

“Very good. “It’s neat.”
I smiled happily as I looked at Geomro, which was set at 2200 points and level 2.
‘Darkness. thanks. Please next time too.’
-shut up!
**
“Come.”
Hong A-ra lowered her head and rushed towards Baek Woo-jin.
Red aura was oozing out of her sword and body.
bang!
Baek Woo-jin easily blocked Hong A-ra’s vertical cut.
“Hmph!”
Hong Ara held her breath and swung her sword continuously. It was a high-speed continuous strike using basic sword techniques, up, down, left and right.
“It’s still slow.”
Baek Woo-jin swung his sword at a speed faster than that of Hong A-ra and deflected all attacks.
“The vertical cut is too honest. “It’s a good idea to aim for both shoulders, not just the head.”
“yes!”
She pretended to target the upper body with a horizontal cut and started to fake attacking the lower body.
Percussion!
However, Baek Woo-jin blocked Hong A-ra’s attack just by turning the tip of his sword.
‘It’s like a wall.’
Baek Woo-jin, Hong A-ra, looked like a solid wall clad in iron armor.
When sparring with Moon Joo-young, there was an opening even though he couldn’t attack, but Baek Woo-jin didn’t see any opening.
It seemed like he was fully skilled in all the sword techniques he used.
“Faster!”
“yes!”
Hong A-ra gritted her teeth and swung her sword with all her might, but Baek Woo-jin blocked all her attacks as if she were a wall.
“Huh huh…”
After the training was over, Hong Ara sat down on the ground and was out of breath.
In comparison, Baek Woo-jin did not break a drop of sweat or breathe heavily.
“The swordsmanship is excellent. “But I lack stamina.”
“sorry.”
“No, there’s nothing I can do because I have a lot to do.”
Swordsmanship improved rapidly thanks to the ability to see, but physical strength and auras were bound to lag a little behind.
“Let’s add more auror and physical training.”
“yes.”
“Once you finish that training, the next thing is the actual battle.”
“really?”
“okay.”
In fact, you can still go to the level 1 dungeon, but Hong A-ra’s personality is so delicate that it felt like throwing a child into the water.
I wanted to train my stamina and aura a little more.
“From now on, we will add Auror training at dawn and at night…”
“Master.”
As Baek Woo-jin was instructing Hong A-ra on how to train, Moon Ju-young approached.
“The dungeon you mentioned before has been created.”
“It’s finally come out.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled as he looked over the paper he received from Moon Ju-young.
-Dungeon?
‘It’s a dungeon with very good things coming out of it.’
