Episode 197 A sword that divides dimensions (5)
[Baek Woo-jin from Shingeombaekga. Heading to the front.]
[Baek Woo-jin walks through a thorny path on his own.]
[Will Korea’s best prospect be able to overcome the darkness of the front line?]
Baek Woo-jin’s reputation has skyrocketed and his every move has garnered attention, so it is said that he is heading to the front. The news spread like the wind.
-I don’t understand. Why are you going to the front?
-I don’t know. You have money, face, popularity, and all the ability, so why go through all the trouble? You can live comfortably.
-Because that’s the only way I can think about it. Your bowl is called soy sauce sauce.
-that’s right. Why does his nickname have the word Hyeop in it for no reason? Baek Woo-jin is a person who thinks about the greater good.
-Oh, I admit that. These days, it is called Hyeopung instead of Hyeopgeom.
-If you think about it that way, it’s really amazing. Other people want to live comfortably after gaining fame and money, but you go to the front lines.
-But it would be useless to go, because the fighting on the front lines is endless. This was Baek Woo-jin’s mistake.
People either praised Baek Woo-jin or considered him foolish.
Those who praised Baek Woo-jin admired his cause, and those who thought he was foolish thought that he was walking down a difficult path that he should not have to go through.
As the story about Baek Woo-jin gradually died down, new news hit the whole country, and even the world.
[Baek Woo-jin. Changing the landscape of the war taking place on the front lines.]
[The protagonist who created changes on the front lines is Baek Woo-jin of Shingeombaekga.] [
Good news from the front lines for the first time in decades.]
In some ways, because it was the first victory on the front lines, Baek Woo-jin’s performance was It spread like crazy outside.
This was unusual for the front line, which did not disclose internal affairs to the outside world for fear of fearing the general public.
-Is this a true story? You changed the game on the front line?
-Isn’t this the first time you heard news of victory from the front?
-Co-worker Baek Woo-jin! I believed it!
-It’s really crazy. You solve problems wherever you go. Do you have a solution?
-This is my first time seeing a good article pop up on the front line. There were always reports of people dying or requests for help.
-Baek Woo-jin did something that even the heads of the four major guilds and King Chang could not do?
-Win on all fronts? Isn’t that impossible? Isn’t this an error?
-Gasp! Just one day! I want to be Baek Woo-jin just for one day!
Everyone, including those with ordinary skills, could not hide their surprise at the news that Baek Woo-jin had achieved victory at the front.
In particular, talented people who had been to the front lines thought it made no sense and looked into the information themselves.
When they heard from their acquaintances at the front that the news was true, they were so shocked that they were unable to come to their senses for a while.
**
“This person is really….”
Jeok Yeon-hwa’s eyes sparkled as she read an Internet article about Baek Woo-jin’s activities.
I was happy to hear that Baek Woo-jin was active in the front line. I’ve been feeling unmotivated lately, but as soon as I heard about him, I felt a surge of energy that wasn’t there before.
“You seem to be in a good mood today.”
Jeok Wi-jin moistened his mouth with coffee and smiled.
“dad! “I mean…”
“No.”
Before Jeok Yeon-hwa could speak, Jeok Wi-jin shook his head.
“You know what to say and you’re saying no.”
“They will ask you to send them to the front lines.”
“How did you do that…”
Jeok Yeon-hwa’s face turned red as she hit the nail on the head.
“Now that the news has come out that Woojin is active, aren’t you itching to follow him?”
“Then why are you saying no? “I’m going to train…”
“It’s because you don’t know what’s ahead.”
“yes?”
“What he did this time was not just a show of strength.”
Jeok Wijin put down his coffee and looked at Jeok Yeonhwa. There was also surprise in his seemingly calm eyes.
“That guy did something that was impossible for me and Baek Chun-hwa.”
“yes? “Oh, Dad couldn’t do it?”
“I’m not God either. “You can’t do everything.”
Jeok Wei-jin’s voice became heavy. The humiliation of returning without even being able to touch the elite dark elves and black necks that crossed the dimension was still vivid.
“What he did this time is unprecedented. It’s not simply a matter of force. “If the news is true, he is the only one who can clear the front line.”
“Then shouldn’t we go and help even more?”
“Even if we don’t go, King Chang is there. I’ll take care of it. Besides, if we move now, we’ll only be bridesmaids.”
Red Wijin shook his head. According to the information, Baek Woo-jin is the only one who can touch the black neck. No matter who does what, Baek Woo-jin will get all the credit.
“Baek Cheon-hwa, that guy was blessed with a son.”
**
Quaaaaaaaa!
Seomya’s claws rose from the darkness and mercilessly tore down the roots of the black tree that stretched out like the fingers of a giant.
Wow!
Black blood spurted out like a fountain, and the black fog that covered the ground and sky began to fade like dawn fog.
“Wow!”
“We got 9 blocks back!”
“I won!”
At the spectacle of the dark fog disappearing from the Dark Zone, the talented people cheered as if the mountain was floating away.
“There aren’t many black necks left!”
Baek Woo-jin set up darkness against the blue sky that appeared like the eye of a typhoon.
“Aaaah!”
“Baek Woo-jin! Baek Woo-jin!”
The talented people shouted louder and shouted Baek Woo-jin’s name with a bright blush on their faces.
-They’re putting on a show.
‘You deserve to be happy.’
They had just taken back their third block by cutting down the roots of the Black Tree, and they hadn’t lost a single game in the past month, so it was natural for everyone to be happy.
“I can’t believe these roots are cut so easily.”
Baek Yeon-hwi burst into laughter when he saw the cut off roots of the black tree. Baek Woo-jin easily accomplished what neither his father nor King Chang could accomplish. I felt surprised and unique.
“Good job.”
“What trouble?”
Baek Woo-jin shook his head. The dark elf I caught today was weaker than Tulan. There was no need to say it was a hardship.
“We have recovered 7 blocks, 9 blocks, and 10 blocks, so there really isn’t much left.”
Baek Yeon-hwi clenched her fists as she looked at the silhouette of the black tree. After the news of Baek Woo-jin spread, the number of applicants increased and the morale of talented people soared.
There are still a lot of dark zones left, but if things continue like this, it won’t be long before we can reach the black tree.
“You can’t let down your guard. “There are still some left.”
“Anything left?”
“I told you there was something crouching near the Black Tree.”
“Of course I know.”
Even though the scout leader used his special ability, he could not find out the existence of the black tree. It meant that he was not an ordinary guy.
“You should think about that guy too.”
If you couldn’t deal with the unknown entity guarding the black neck, cutting down the black neck was a long way off. Now we have to calculate its existence as well.
“If I ever meet him, I will take care of him. “You focus on cutting off the blackhead.”
“Brother, your abilities are cut in half in the Dark Zone. “Can you handle it?”
“Huh, are you ignoring me?”
Baek Yeon-hwi tapped Baek Woo-jin on the shoulder, and Baek Woo-jin smiled. As more than a month passed, the two brothers became a little closer.
“But what are you going to do once you clean up here?”
“huh?”
“What are you going to do when you cut off the black neck and the dark zone disappears?”
“You told me not to let down my guard, but you already think I’m going to cut down the black neck?”
“Because it’s not impossible. “It’s good to think about it in advance.”
“Well, I’m not sure because I haven’t thought about it. “I originally only thought about devoting my life here.”
Baek Yeon-hwi scratched the hair below her ears and thought about it before opening her mouth.
“Then think about it now. “Life is long and there is a lot to do.”
“Then shall I stand behind you?”
“what?”
“Didn’t you say that you wanted to become the head of the family and turn the Baek family into a proper family? “It means helping you achieve your dreams.”
“Do you have no desire to become the head of the family?”
“does not exist. at all.”
Baek Yeon-hwi shook his head resolutely. There was not the slightest wavering in his eyes.
“If I had a desire to be the head of the family, I wouldn’t be here.”
“That’s right.”
“Anyway, to answer your question, I think I’ll still be here.”
“huh? why?”
“Even when there was no black neck, monsters poured out of this place. If you cut off the black neck, the dark zone will disappear, but monsters will continue to appear, so we must protect this place.”
“You said you would help me.”
“Why don’t you return to your family only to help you?”
Baek Yeon-hwi’s calm voice contained his sincerity. There was no lie in what he said about helping Baek Woo-jin.
“Because help is okay. “Find out what you want to do.”
“what?”
“I’m going to settle the matter with my father one-on-one. “I have to break him with the force he likes so much.”
“You are truly crazy to even think of defeating your father by force.”
Baek Yeon-hwi muttered that he was crazy and looked fed up.
“I’m serious.”
“okay. Do whatever you want. But if you need help, let me know anytime. “Not just me, but everyone who has been helped here will help you.”
“Of course we should use that.”
“Hahaha!”
Baek Yeon-hwi let out a rare laugh out loud, and Baek Woo-jin smiled and shrugged his shoulders.
**
“Oh my, I’m so tired.”
Baek Woo-jin put his sword on the wall and threw himself on the sofa.
-There really isn’t much left now.
“You look kind of happy.”
-If you leave here, you can watch the new drama. Even though I didn’t want it, I start to get excited just thinking about it.
“It’s so consistent.”
Baek Woo-jin shook his head as if it was absurd. No one would believe that it was a magic sword in a Korean drama.
-Now you too, get ready.
“What are you preparing all of a sudden?”
-As you said, there is a monster near the Black Tree that threatened you. You might have to deal with him, so get ready.
“Oh that guy.”
-Other abilities can only exert about half of their original power in the dark zone. The closer you get to the black tree, the lower the ability you can use.
The darkness tapped the air like a baton.
-However, your abilities do not decrease even in the Dark Zone due to Lasadum’s Aura. In other words, if you are in the Dark Zone, you are stronger than your brother or the Spear King.
“Oh, not that much.”
Baek Woo-jin waved his hand as if it was nonsense.
-It’s true. The dark zone drains not only abilities but also physical strength and Auror mental power. You might be able to finish the battle right away, but if the fight goes on for a long time, you are the only one who can kill him.
“Hmm…”
When I thought about it, what the darkness said was not completely wrong. The only person unaffected by the Dark Zone was himself. If the fight continues, you may have to take charge of the monster yourself.
“Who the hell is that guy?”
-There is an answer, but it doesn’t make sense.
“What do you mean?”
-I mean, it’s so strange. I’ll tell you when I’m sure.
“What do you know? “Then let’s start preparing.”
Baek Woo-jin brought up the status window for the first time in a long time.

-Is it over 10,000?
“Huh, 12,000 points…”
Since I kept accumulating points after using them at Daeyeonmun, my points were over 12,000 points. The five-digit points made my heart pound just by looking at them.
“I could put up 15.”
-Huh, you’re really crazy to raise 15 advanced abilities at once, not even low level.
“I guess I can raise everything by 2 and give the remaining 3 to swordsmanship.”
Baek Woo-jin used all 12,000 points to increase his abilities.
ridge!
The sound of a large drum being beaten came from inside my body. The heart throbbed violently, and the pure mana absorbed throughout the body spread throughout the body.
With the sound of the sound, the body changed into a structure capable of exerting even stronger power, the size of the dantian increased, and the quality of the auror within it increased.
My head became clearer, and the swordsmanship techniques I had acquired so far became new lines engraved in my mind. Movements and tricks that I did not understand melted away as smoothly as sugar.
Ding!
[A new quest has arrived.]
While Baek Woo-jin was enjoying the joy that comes from increasing his abilities, a new message appeared.

Quest acceptance benefits: All abilities and characteristics grow rapidly during the quest period.
Reward: 3000 point title ???
“What is the question mark?”
-If I knew, would I have set it to ???? Anyway, it’s a clever system.
“If you cut off the black neck, you will find out what it is.”
Baek Woo-jin accepted the quest and got up from the sofa. I grabbed the sword and opened the door.
-What is it? Where are you going all of a sudden?
“Can’t you see the benefits of accepting the quest? “I have to go practice.”
-Now is the time to watch dramas. It’s been a while since I’ve saved it!
“Tsk tsk.”
Baek Woo-jin waved his finger and clicked his tongue.
“Things have changed. later.”
-You cheater!
**
“I’m proud!”
Baek Woo-jin returned to his dorm after training until midnight. A satisfied smile appeared on his face, as if the training had gone well.
“Darkness. Why aren’t you saying anything? I will start playing the drama from now on. “Don’t sulk.”
-What is pouting! I was thinking.
“What are you thinking?”
-You said you were thinking about what the being in the black neck is.
“Did you know who it was?”
-I kept thinking about it, but there was only one answer. But that answer doesn’t make sense.
Darkness slowly emerged before Baek Woo-jin’s eyes.
“That doesn’t make sense?”
-As you may have felt, that being had pure natural mana.
“So you thought it was strange. Because the mana of the guy in the dark zone was nature itself.”
-There is only one being with such pure mana. But it makes no sense for that entity to be in the dark zone.
The darkness muttered that it couldn’t understand and tilted its blade.
“So what was the answer you were thinking of?”
-It’s an elf.
“Elf? “A real elf, not a dark elf?”
-okay. But it’s not just any elf.
The voice of darkness sank so low that it sounded gloomy.
-High elf. A noble and powerful being called a blessing and miracle of nature.
