Episode 163 Wind God’s Island (5)
The blessings of the wind sprinkled by Sirka seeped into Baek Woo-jin’s body.
[The blessings of the wind are like seeds.]
“Seeds?”
[Just as the state of germinated sprouts varies depending on the soil, the blessing of the wind will awaken with characteristics suited to your soil.] “
I understand what you mean.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded.
This meant that the characteristics given by the Blessing of Wind varied depending on what actions one took and what abilities one used.
Perhaps there will be characteristics that are currently lacking and needed or characteristics that will further strengthen the current abilities.
[I will also give gifts to all of you who came this far.]
Sirka waved her wings at the stunned people and Moon Ju-yeong, Jang Gyeong-ha, and Muyoung-gaek.
Whoa!
The blue light from Sirka’s feathers fluttered like snow. The light spread to everyone below.
[Wind attribute sensitivity has increased.]
[Wind attribute resistance has increased.]
As soon as Baek Woo-jin was hit by the light, a hologram window appeared.
“wow!”
“Mmm!”
Yoon Woo-min and Jang Kyung-ha also looked surprised when they realized that their sensitivity had increased.
-Is that really crazy? Even though he’s chatty and nosy, he’s not the kind of guy who gives things away like that, right?
‘He is a very good spirit king.’
-Huh, is it time to die?
Darkness looked at Sirka and laughed as if he didn’t understand.
“I have one question.”
[Tell me.]
“I know that the spirits who are the king’s vessels must take a test to become the Spirit King. What is the test like?”
[Did you know?]
Sirka looked at Ignis, Sulbing, and Leo, who was attached to Baek Woojin, one by one.
[As you might expect, the test is different for each spirit.]
“Yes. To that extent…”
[Then do you know why the test is different?]
Sirka asked a question as if testing Baek Woo-jin.
“Hmm…”
A thought passed through Baek Woo-jin’s mind as he looked at Sirka’s clear eyes.
“Could it be that the spirit kings of the time are giving a test?”
[As expected, it’s wise. okay. In order for Leo to become the Spirit King, he must pass the test I give.]
Sirka’s beak opened slightly. It looked like a satisfied smile.
[Even if I felt sorry for that child, taking the test is a completely different matter. It would be better to raise them properly by giving them a lot of experience. Of course, the same goes for other children. Spirit kings are arbitrary.]
“Isn’t the lifespan of a spirit king long?”
[Is it coincidence or inevitable? The lifespan of the Spirit Kings, including me, is not long. There is a high possibility that you will have to take the test while you are alive, so it would be a good idea to prepare properly.]
Sirka was talking about her lifespan as if it were someone else’s business.
“All right.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded heavily.
He thought that it was definitely fate that spirits with the qualities of a king came to him.
I wanted to raise them well and make them all spirit kings.
[And Yoon Woo-min.]
Sirka turned her head to Yoon Woo-min.
He knew not only Baek Woo-jin’s name but also Yoon Woo-min’s name.
[That guy is waiting. I think it’s time to try again?]
“I know.”
Yoon Woo-min made eye contact with Sirka with a calm expression.
[Was it just a needless meddling? Well, it’s between you and him, so you guys will take care of it.]
Sirka and Yoon Woo-min had an incomprehensible conversation, but Baek Woo-jin could roughly understand what it meant.
‘Is this the Spirit King of the Earth?…’
The highest attribute of Yoon Woo-min’s sensitivity is Earth, and he summoned the Spirit King of the Earth in his past life.
The waiting being that Sirka spoke of is definitely the Spirit King of the Earth.
‘As expected, you are amazing.’
Yun Woo-min was already at the stage where he could summon the Spirit King. Admiration naturally flowed out.
[I have to go now. So much has been given to you that your time in this world has diminished. But before I go, I have one thing to tell you. There is hostility towards you out there…]
Sirka turned her head outside the curtain she had created.
“I know.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled as if telling him not to worry.
“You don’t have to worry.”
* * *
Um Woo-seong gritted his teeth until they made a clicking sound.
I barely arrived at the place where the Wind God’s legacy was, but all I could see was a huge circle surrounded by a green film.
However, I could clearly feel the enormous energy radiating from within.
“It was them, after all!”
Looking at the situation, it was clear that someone in Baek Woo-jin’s group had the marble.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to take the exam so quickly.
“Do you think I’m going to get away with it like this?”
“But it is impossible to break that membrane. Plus, the energy felt inside is something we can never handle…”
“It doesn’t matter.”
Jo Young-hoon frowned, but Um Woo-sung shook his head.
“The huge energy felt within the curtain is clearly the spirit of wind. “The Wind God must have made that curtain, too.”
“I think so too.”
“They must be being tested by the Wind God inside the curtain. “No matter how genius Baek Woo-jin or Jang Kyeong-ha are, there is no way they will pass the exam easily.”
Um Woo-sung used the wind to draw a circle on the floor.
It was a strangely shaped magic circle.
“Those who finished the exam will be quite exhausted. Moreover, even if you obtain the legacy of the Wind God, you cannot use it right away. “It will take some practice and time to use it.”
“Definitely….”
Jo Young-hoon nodded.
Even while Um Woo-sung was angry, he was accurately understanding the situation.
“Here, we set up overlapping magic circles that amplify the power of magic, and then attack them the moment they come out.”
“Even then, I might not be able to get an inheritance.”
“doesn’t care. “I won’t feel relieved if I don’t kill those guys.”
Because the job he had been preparing for for a long time was taken away right before his eyes, his anger will not be relieved until he sees Baek Woo-jin’s body.
“Install the magic amplification magic circle and the continuous magic circle in an overlapping manner. “We will wipe them out in one fell swoop!”
“All right!”
Following Um Woo-seong’s instructions, the wizards moved a little closer to the curtain and set up a magic circle.
After all the magic circles were installed, Uhm Woo-seong and the wizards gathered again in the center.
“This is enough.”
Um Woo-seong looked at the installed magic and clenched his fist.
‘Even if I can’t do it, I will move up to the first circle.’
If the amount of magic circles installed is sufficient, the 7th circle magic, Storm Buster, can be raised to the 8th circle level.
Other wizards’ magic will also increase by 1 to 1.5 circles.
Squeak!
When Um Woo-sung was catching his breath, the green film began to disappear.
The terrifying energy I felt inside was gone.
Squeak!
The curtain completely disappeared and Baek Woo-jin and Unitas guild members began to appear.
“Now is the time.”
Um Woo-sung used Storm Buster, and the wizards activated the 6-circle magic Cyclone and Wind Cannon at the same time.
Quaaaaa!
Fifteen 8th circle magic and 7th circle magic became one storm and rushed towards Baek Woojin.
Kuwaaaa!
Trees were uprooted, stones lifted like feathers, and the entire island shook as if there had been an earthquake.
“done!”
Um Woo-seong sang with joy.
The combined magic was powerful enough to reach 8.5 circles, if not 9 circles.
Everything the wind touched was torn to shreds.
No matter how powerful you are, your flesh will explode the moment it touches the wind.
“Leo. jin.”
“Grehon.”
“jin!”
Just before the storm hit, Baek Woo-jin, Yoon Woo-min, and Jang Kyung-ha summoned their spirits.
Quaaaaa!
Leo, Greon, and the two Jinn radiated their spirit energy toward the huge storm surrounded by blade-like winds.
Coo coo coo coo!
The storm that was devouring everything in front of it began to slow down.
“uh?”
“What!”
There was astonishment in the eyes of Um Woo-sung and Jo Young-hoon.
The power of the magic they created far exceeded the 8th circle.
Even if there were only four spirits, it made no sense for them to be blocked like this.
“It’s coming back too!”
“The wind is coming back!”
It wasn’t just that the storm stopped there.
The storm was coming back. While maintaining the deadly sharp wind.
“Push! “Push with all your might!”
“Oh, I understand!”
The wizards tried to turn back the storm by squeezing out the remaining magical energy, but it was no use.
The storm rushed in like crazy, as if it were carrying a bulldozer.
“The magic must be erased! “Everyone will die like this!”
“shit!”
Um Woo-seong and the wizards bit their lips until they bled and extinguished their magic.
“Ugh!”
“Ugh!”
However, because the judgment to erase the magic was too late, all the wizards were swept to the ground by the weakened storm.
“Off…”
They were able to erase the magic because it was a magic they had created, but the wizards could not withstand it because they had so little magic and power left.
“uh…?”
As Um Woo-seong trembled and tried to stand up, a shadow fell over his head.
When I raised my head, I saw Baek Woo-jin with shimmering blue eyes.
“I’d like to move on, but since you attacked me so blatantly, you probably don’t mind if I die, right?”
“Ah…”
“Oh no!”
When Um Woo-seong completely froze and could not say anything, Jo Young-hoon knelt down.
“Well, we thought the prosecutor and Unitas were trapped and were trying to save them…”
“If you’re going to lie, be a little creative.”
Baek Woo-jin snorted and swung his sword. As if trying to hit Um Woo-sung’s head.
“Stop it.”
Yoon Woo-min came up behind Baek Woo-jin.
“Didn’t you say you were trying to save us?”
Yoon Woo-min gave his gaze not to Um Woo-seong or the wizards, but to the Unitas guild members behind him.
With that alone, Baek Woo-jin realized what Yoon Woo-min was trying to say.
-That’s an old man. Why are you doing that? He is a man with a naturally funny temperament.
‘It’s because of Unitas.’
-what?
‘Even if those guys die, it doesn’t matter to me or the elder. However, Unitas guild members are likely to suffer from Lucas. No matter what anyone says, Lucas is one of the four major guilds and that guy is a disciple of one of the guild leaders.’
-Well, definitely….”
Baek Woo-jin is Shingeombaek, and Yoon Woo-min is strong alone.
However, Unitas is not a very strong guild with many people with special abilities.
There could be a big problem with Lucas.
“We will meet again soon.”
Baek Woo-jin sent an intense gaze as if threatening Um Woo-seong and the wizards.
“Uhm….”
“Ugh!”
Since Um Woo-seong was barely able to withstand it, the other wizards shed cold sweat and lowered their eyes.
“Let’s go.”
Baek Woo-jin took the lead because he had memorized all the directions, and the others followed him.
“Good job you both.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled and patted Leo and Jin.
Jin was outstanding, but Leo’s abilities were definitely special.
‘Let me take a look.’
Baek Woo-jin brought back the hologram window that he had left aside because it was in front of Sirka.
[A fitting name was given to the vessel of wind.]
[Leo’s characteristic Yeouiyeonwind is created.] [
The power of the gale becomes stronger.] [
The range of the gale expands.]
[Wind attribute sensitivity increases by 10 points. .]
[Wind attribute resistance increases by 15 points.]
-Ah, annoying. Is there a way to avoid seeing that window?
‘I think the characteristic that controlled the wind earlier is Yeoui Yeon Wind?’
Baek Woo-jin smiled as he read the words of darkness.
-Yeoui Yeonpung?
‘The one that brought back that huge typhoon. Leo was the one who showed the greatest power at that time.’
Yoon Woo-min’s Grehon and Jang Kyeong-ha’s Jin also showed great power, but it was Leo who played the biggest role.
It was a performance worthy of a spirit who had the qualities to become a king.
“You’re going to be tired, so I’ll move quickly.”
Baek Woo-jin turned off the hologram window and left the forest with Leo and Jin leading the way.
“ah!”
Baek Woo-jin, who was walking ahead, frowned.
“Why are you doing that?”
“It looks like I left something behind.”
“young master. “I will come back!”
“no. “I have to go and find it.”
Baek Woo-jin waved his hand at Moon Ju-young, who was trying to turn away.
“I remember the road too, so go on your way.”
Yoon Woo-min nodded and smiled. It was a kind of sly smile.
“I’ll be back soon.”
“okay. “Just do it in moderation and come quickly.”
“yes!”
Baek Woo-jin smiled at Yoon Woo-min and then started walking back down the road. He ran like a gale, stepping with extreme steps.
-Leave something behind. A guy who has nothing.
‘I left it behind.’
Baek Woo-jin’s smile changed 180 degrees. It was a smile as cold as a layer of ice.
‘I left behind those who should have been defeated.’
-ok?
* * *
Flutter.
Um Woo-sung barely recovered his energy and mentality and tried to get up, but he fell down again without realizing it.
“Why did you come back…”
His expression turned pale in shock.
This is because Baek Woo-jin, whom he did not want to see even in his dreams, appeared in front of him again.
“I told you. “We will meet again soon.”
“uh? That very moment is now? “It’s too fast!”
-Crazy guy…
I did say that we would definitely meet again.
However, ordinary people usually just say that and never actually meet again.
Even if we meet again, it will be at least a few months or years later.
I couldn’t figure out why he came right after saying that.
“I mean. “My personality is so twisted that I can’t just get over it if I get hit.”
-I didn’t know you were this twisted either.
Baek Woo-jin grinned and lifted the Armin Sword in its sheath.
“Let’s hit just enough so that self-defense is not violated. Because you tried to kill me. “You just need to get hit right before you die.”
-What kind of self-defense is that!
“What kind of self-defense is that….”
“It’s up to you to decide. “I’m so embarrassed that I can’t even argue with you.”
Baek Woo-jin emphasized the word Baekga and then struck the sword at the back of Um Woo-seong’s head.
“shit! Don’t you just get hit… huh?”
Um Woo-seong tried to lift the staff at his waist, but he could not feel anything.
Wow!
Um Woo-sung’s head fell to the floor with a cool sound like a watermelon exploding.
“Ugh…”
Um Woo-sung groaned and his body went limp.
“Ugh!”
“Raise your weapon first! “If you don’t have teeth, you have to fight with your gums!”
Because the mana was empty, Jo Yeong-hoon ordered the wizards to take up weapons and then found his magic orb.
“Huh?”
I was planning on holding the magic sphere and drinking the mana recovery potion, but the magic sphere and potion had disappeared without a trace.
“The wand is gone.”
“My magic sphere is gone too!”
“There are no potions left!”
The wizards’ weapons, including wands, magic spheres, and even potions, were all gone.
“Fight with your teeth…”
Baek Woo-jin approached Jo Yeong-hoon while holding Um Woo-seong’s neck, which was limp like a corpse.
“Good words. “Please give it a try.”
“I don’t even have gums…”
“That’s your problem.”
Baek Woo-jin grinned and struck down his sword.
Bye!
* * *
Percussion!
An antique wooden staff fell from Mu Younggaek’s body.
“I dropped this. hmm?”
Moon Ju-young felt something strange while picking up the small staff that had fallen from Mu Young-gaek’s body.
“Oh my, thank you.”
“But where have I seen this wand before… Wow!”
When Mu Young-gaek scratched the back of his head and received the cane from Moon Ju-young, another cane and a blue potion of magic sphere fell from his body.
“This!”
Moon Ju-young looked at the items and froze like a plaster statue.
I remembered everything.
All of those wands and beads were weapons owned by the wizards I saw earlier.
“Did you steal it again?”
