Episode 242 Darkness Descent (3)
Baek Yeon-hwi couldn’t believe her eyes when she saw Baek Woo-jin dragging Tarun down.
I never imagined that they would forcefully bring down someone with great power, especially Tarun, the ruler of the Dark Moon, through empty space.
“What am I looking at now…”
I looked to the side and saw Hwang Byeong-hun, too, with his eyes wide open and the hand holding the spear shaking. I’ve been watching him for decades, but I’ve rarely seen him look that surprised.
“omg!”
Baek Yeon-hwi heard Hwang Byeong-hun’s exclamation and turned her head to Baek Woo-jin again.
It was a sword. The huge typhoon that soared all the way to the sky was split in half by Woojin’s light sword strike.
Woojin’s sword strike had enough power even after cutting down the typhoon, and even cut down the Moon Man and the criminals of the Dark Moon Guild behind him in one go.
“You cut the bran grain so easily?”
Baek Yeon-hwi’s voice contained confusion. Baek Woo-jin understood the texture of that huge typhoon at a glance and cut it down. It was so surprising that it was shocking.
Tarun tried to counterattack, but the devastating blow from Baek Woo-jin’s sword disappeared without even leaving a body behind.
“Huh…”
No words came out. Woojin’s swordsmanship was definitely a martial art that I had seen before, but it had a level of power and range that was completely different from before.
“I don’t know if what I’m seeing is real.”
Yoon Woo-min, who had already approached me, swallowed dry saliva with a puzzled expression on his face.
‘I can’t believe he suddenly got stronger like that…’
Although he was using Woojin’s technique with Woojin’s face, the power and energy were on a different level. After a while, it felt like I was seeing the power of Baek Woo-jin after it was completed.
“That’s right.”
Baek Yeon-hwi nodded. It felt like something different had entered Woojin.
“Huh!”
“Crazy…”
Baek Yeon-hwi and Hwang Byeong-hun screamed at the same time. With one swing, Baek Woo-jin melted the sun-like steel ring launched by Kim Nam-gil.
It was such a high-level swordsmanship that it was impossible to tell what he did even when he saw it right in front of him.
Baek Woo-jin broke the ten steel rings created by Kim Nam-gil by gritting his teeth with all his strength.
His sword and blow contained the energy of Pacheon. It seemed like Baek Cheon-hwa, his father, had come and fought, not Baek Woo-jin.
“Uhm….”
“That!”
Yoon Woo-min and Hwang Byeong-hoon’s complexions turned pale. Kim Nam-gil brought up an enormous amount of energy and created 18 strong rings at once.
Additionally, eighteen steel rings were gathered into one and transformed into a giant ring.
It contained so much energy that if Baek Woo-jin couldn’t stop it, all the talented people here would die.
“Ugh!”
“Woo Woojin!”
Baek Yeon-hwi, Yoon Woo-min, and Hwang Byeong-hoon ran towards Baek Woo-jin. No matter how strong Baek Woo-jin became, it seemed like he couldn’t stop the fearsome wheel of Kang Hwan.
Cheeeeee!
However, Baek Woo-jin waved his hand back and raised his sword as if it was okay.
Then, the archer rushed forward in a posture as if he was shooting a bow and simultaneously blasted Kang Hwan’s ring and Kim Nam-gil.
At that moment, time seemed to stop. Everyone here looked at Baek Woo-jin without even being able to breathe properly.
As if in a last-ditch effort, Kim Nam-gil tried to commit suicide along with Zeno’s warriors, but even that was useless.
Baek Woo-jin lifted the criminals who were about to commit suicide into the sky with airborne objects and then trapped them with a black membrane.
A huge explosion occurred in the sky, but it could not pierce the black membrane and everything disappeared.
“It feels like I’m dreaming…”
Baek Yeon-hwi fell back with a mesmerized expression on his face. My legs felt weak. I wondered if what I was witnessing was really real. It was a sight I couldn’t believe no matter who I told it to.
“Hehehehe!”
“Haa…”
Hwang Byeong-hoon burst out laughing, and Yoon Woo-min sat down with a cold expression. Even though I saw it with my own eyes, I couldn’t tell what I was seeing.
“Huh…”
Baek Yeonhwi looked back. The other talented people had fallen behind a long time ago and were in a semi-conscious state.
All the criminals knelt down and put their heads on the ground. It meant giving up running or resisting and surrendering.
Baek Woo-jin finished everything and turned around. After looking up at the sky once, I collapsed.
“Woojin!”
Baek Yeon-hwi quickly kicked off the ground and caught Baek Woo-jin, who was trying to fall forward. Yoon Woo-min and Hwang Byeong-hoon were also surprised and came running.
“Woojin….”
Baek Yeon-hwi, Hwang Byeong-hoon, and Yoon Woo-min’s eyes turned red. Baek Woo-jin did not have a single aura left on his body, and there were bruises all over his body.
I don’t know exactly what Baek Woo-jin did, but I felt like crying at the thought that he sacrificed so much to save them.
“This guy…”
“Thank you.”
“You’re in debt again.”
The three people looked at Baek Woo-jin with eyes filled with admiration, gratitude, and pride.
After that, many talented people gathered together and expressed their gratitude to the fallen Baek Woo-jin from deep in their hearts.
While everyone was looking at Baek Woo-jin and admiring him, someone’s sad voice, which no one else could hear, rang through the air.
-I did everything…
**
A breaking news article was posted on Korea’s largest portal site.
[Breaking News] Baek Woo-jin. Competing with the criminal guild Zenon Darkmoon in Hawaii.
It was so urgent that the short news content even contained typos.
People who saw the article naturally thought it was false.
This is because it did not make sense for Baek Woo-jin, who was in the White Sun guild until yesterday, to go to Hawaii and fight Zenon Darkmoon.
But since then, two videos have been uploaded.
In the first video, Baek Woo-jin was filmed alone, overwhelming and defeating Zenon and Darkmoon’s criminals.
The second video was a scene where Baek Woo-jin engages in a fierce battle with Noe-geom and eventually defeats Noe-geom.
[Breaking News] The place where Baek Woo-jin invaded was Zeno’s headquarters.
[Breaking News] Baek Woo-jin. Killed with a thunder sword at Zeno’s headquarters.
Since those videos, countless articles and videos have been uploaded at a rapid pace.
-How did the human who was in the Hundred Lines Guild just yesterday end up there?
-More than that, how on earth did you find Zeno’s headquarters? It’s a place that I couldn’t find even in the World Association or Black Market Arcane!
-I knew Baek Woo-jin had intelligence, but I didn’t know it was to that extent…
-But why are Zenon and Darkmoon together?
-I touched the wrong person, Zeno. Noegeom also died. Aren’t we going to fail today?
-That’s not it. There is no way that Master Zenon or Tarun of the Dark Moon have a lower level of power than Baek Woo-jin. Since he killed Noegeom, Baek Woo-jin will probably be left out as well.
-I think so. There are too many risks. Because I took revenge. He will step away now.
People naturally thought that Baek Woo-jin would step down. They thought that if Zenon and Darkmoon were together and their master came, even Baek Woo-jin would not be able to withstand it.
But soon after, new breaking news came out.
[Breaking News] Kim Nam-gil, master of criminal guild Zenon, dies.
[Breaking News] Master Tarun of the criminal guild Darkmoon dies.
As soon as those two articles came out, a new video was uploaded. It was a video of Baek Woo-jin defeating Tarun and Kim Nam-gil and protecting people from suicide bombers.
Since Zenon and Darkmoon were the world’s four largest criminal guilds, not only Korea but the entire world was in an uproar.
-What? What article did I just read? Zenon and the Master of the Dark Moon are dead? And that to Baek Woo-jin?
-it’s crazy. You’re crazy! What is Baek Woo-jin really doing?
-Wow, it was really cheap. I changed my pants.
-The real Baek Woo-jin is a legend. My heart feels majestic…
– I’m tired and let it go.
-I didn’t do it alone. It boasts front-line abilities and also boasts defeat.
-Do you have no eyes? Didn’t you see that he killed Tarun and Kim Nam-gil alone at the end?
-He cuts Kang Hwan like cotton candy. Isn’t that level of power absolutely self-sufficient? I guess it would be equivalent to white or red kaju?
-It’s possible! Honestly, I think I can fight it.
-Now, even if it is a real cooperation, no one will say anything.
-Huh! Huh! Just one day! I want to be Baek Woo-jin just for one day! please!
Articles and videos about Baek Woo-jin were uploaded like crazy, and hundreds of comments were made per second, so much so that the site crashed for a while.
At this moment, the protagonist who was receiving attention from all over the world was checking his physical condition with blank eyes.
“Aurors are at the bottom.”
Baek Woo-jin stroked his abdomen. Perhaps because of the enormous amount of energy drawn from it, the aura of Danjeon, which was like an ocean, sank like a dried up well.
The aura was filling up little by little, but it seemed like it would take a while to fill the empty dantian.
-It’s all because you’re weak. You weakling!
“Why do you get angry as soon as you wake up?”
-You devil!
“Why are you doing that again?”
-Check the message. You will shed tears too.
“message?”
Baek Woo-jin tilted his head and checked the message.
“Huh…”
I couldn’t close my mouth. All messages were about self-reward. Abilities increased, and new sword paths and characteristics were created.
“It’s awesome?”
-oh my god? Daaeaeakbaek? Are you crazy! I did everything, but all the rewards went to you! Do you think I don’t look angry?
“That’s right.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded. This time, darkness really helped me. If it weren’t for the darkness, most of the people there would have died and he would have regretted it for the rest of his life.
“system. “If anyone is watching, I wish I could give my reward to Darkness.”
I looked up at the sky and spoke with sincerity.
-Kahah! You don’t have to go that far. I’m just annoyed by the damn system.
Darkness twisted its blade as if embarrassed. There were no major complaints from Baek Woo-jin. I literally just felt a little heartbroken and sad.
“No, your help was really great this time.”
Baek Woo-jin shook his head. In my heart, I wanted to hand over all my rewards.
Ding!
[Demon Sword Darkness has regained some of its memories.]
[Partially sealed energy has been restored.]
With the message, Darkness has changed into its original form.
Kiiing!
With the sound of the mainspring turning, the color of the black blade became darker and black, and unknown characters were created on the blade.
Ding!
[The energy of darkness has increased.]
[The amplification rate of the aura of darkness increases.]
[The attack power of the sword of darkness becomes stronger and the range increases.]
-Well, at this level, it’s okay.
Darkness could not hide that he was in a good mood and raised his voice by two tones.
“Hmm…”
Baek Woo-jin smiled awkwardly as he looked at the message. It is true that the darkness was strengthened, but in reality, it was no different from the fact that he himself had become stronger.
However, since Darkness was happy, he decided to just stay quiet.
“But how did you come into my body?”
-I don’t know the exact reason either.
“There must be a reason… Ugh!”
Baek Woo-jin got up and frowned. Along with the headache, every bone in my body ached. I never thought I would feel something similar to muscle pain at this level.
“Status window.”
Baek Woo-jin sat on the bed and brought up the status window.

Baek Woo-jin smiled after looking at the status window. As per the message, new characteristics were created and abilities were increased.
“How many points does it take to raise the ability score to the highest level?”
It is -4000.
“Huh?”
-Why are you so surprised? It was 1000 points when it was advanced, but 4000 is cheap.
“It’s still too big.”
– Think of it as the more expert you become, the more time it takes to grow.
“Of course.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded. After listening to the words of darkness, I felt that I would have to make a lot of effort in the future.
“I can’t tell even if I look at it.”
I re-read the characteristics of Cheonmujiche, but there was no explanation for Advent. There must have been conditions, but I couldn’t figure out what they were.
-Think about that later. There is no way a system like that could tell you all at once.
“Then shall we take a look at the black brilliance?”
-That’s my trait.
“really?”
-It is a power similar to divine power that can remove the dark energy emitted by demons or corpses.
“oh! “Then this is also great.”
There will be quite a bit of fighting against demons in the future, so I thought it would be of great help at that time.
– Risk! It will be a much bigger help than you expected. The best effect of that trait is… huh?
Darkness cheerfully recited the power of Black Radiance and then stopped talking. Baek Woo-jin suddenly got up and was putting on his clothes.
-what? No more rest?
“How long has it been since I fell asleep?”
-It must have been about 2 hours.
“That’s a good thing. “It might not be too late.”
-What means it’s not too late?
Baek Woo-jin left the hospital room with a grin.
“I have to go get my things.”
**
Baek Woo-jin defeated Moon Ju-young and the medical school’s dissuasion who were outside the hospital room and returned to Zeno’s headquarters.
At the entrance in front of the mansion, five powerful people were blocking the way.
“omg! “Prosecutor!”
“Why don’t you rest more…”
“Baek Woo-jin!”
When the powerful people saw him, they hastily lowered their heads. An American talent I had never seen before also greeted me with a red face.
“What happened inside?”
“We and the American Association are conducting a joint search.”
“okay?”
Baek Woo-jin nodded and headed inside the mansion. Every time he passed by, countless gazes followed him.
In particular, the talented people and employees of the American Association looked thrilled as if they had seen a god because they had seen Baek Woo-jin’s battle video.
Baek Woo-jin received people’s attention and headed to a small annex on the western outskirts rather than the central location where many people were investigating.
-Hmm, that’s a clever strategy.
Darkness looked around the annex and exclaimed in exclamation. It was a strategy that not only planted illusions, but also included characteristics that lowered the perception of people around them.
“When I first cut down the barrier that covered this entire place, there was a wave of barrier here. “I thought there must be something there.”
-You mean you came to get it before someone else ate it?
“That’s right. “We can’t lose it to the American Association or the Hawaiian Guild that did nothing.”
-You really are a monster.
“It’s not just for me this time.”
-huh? What does that mean?
Without answering, Baek Woo-jin took out his sword and cut the curved line in the center of the formation.
Sigh!
The barrier and the base split apart at the same time, and a square building covered in iron appeared on all sides.
“It’s annoying.”
Baek Woo-jin wrapped the few remaining auras around his sword and gently cut the grain of Hancheol. Hancheol split like tofu and the entrance to the building appeared.
Let’s go!
Baek Woo-jin cut the entrance to the building into pieces and went inside.
-Huh!
“Of course there is.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled when he saw the items that filled the walls of the building.
