Episode 35 The table is set.
[You have touched countless people.]
[You have shocked countless people.]
[An additional reward of 10,000 swords is provided.]
“This reward is a reward you receive when you influence people. “If you look at the word ‘mangeom’ written there, it seems to have something to do with swordsmanship, right?”
-You received it because you were known to have dealt with a multi-level guild.
“I never thought I would receive this, but I have to say thank you to Moon Joo-young.”
I only focused on completing the unexpected quest and didn’t think about anything else after that. The best result was getting additional rewards.
“I will receive compensation.”
As soon as he said he would receive the reward, 100 cards appeared in front of Baek Woo-jin. It is not a reward for a thousand swords, but a card for an unexpected reward.
“Are you giving unexpected compensation first?”
-It seems to be in order. First, receive unexpected compensation.
Baek Woo-jin nodded and got up from the bed. He chose the card closest to the center line.
Tuk.
The card flipped over and a pebble appeared. Unlike usual, there was no light or effect.
“What is this?”
-What is it? It’s a rock.
“Something like a whetstone for sharpening a famous sword…”
-Sounds like you’re buying shit. That’s just bullshit! I heard you made a really good choice so far!
“Oh shit….”
– Finally, it came out. Kkkkkk!
Heukam could not hide his joy when Baek Woo-jin, who always had only good things, got a bad result. This lucky guy also has to taste some of the bitterness of life.
Toad-duk-duk.
The second 100 cards were arranged.
-hey. Are you feeling scared now? You’ve been so lucky so far.
The darkness twisted the blade as if teasing Baek Woo-jin. He was truly happy.
“No, not at all.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled and approached the card. Sudden compensation is no different from giving a bonus. Without hesitation, I chose the card that appealed to me.
Hahaha!
The card was turned over and a golden light flashed on a different level than before.
-Shiba…
A dark, empty voice filled the hospital room. If it’s golden, it’s unique. That crazy bastard pulled out a unique one this time. This guy is truly ridiculous.
Tuk.
Just like the first one, a small rock appeared. But the color and shape were different. The stone shimmered in alternating colors of red, blue, green, and brown.
“No luck this time, right?”
Baek Woo-jin smiled slyly and grabbed the shining stone.
-Ugh…
“If I pick something good, it’s good for you too. “Why are you feeling so wronged?”
-You have to experience the bitterness of life…
“Because I experienced bitterness to the point of ignorance in my past life. “Just do an appraisal quickly.”
-Grunt….
Darkness made a groaning sound and enveloped the stone with its aura.
[Spirit Stone with Four Major Attributes]
It is a stone at the center of the spirit world, which is divided into four areas: fire, water, wind, and earth. Because it receives spirit energy from the four realms, it contains the power of all four attributes. When absorbed, elemental sensitivity and elemental resistance slowly increase.
“Now I really need to look for a spirit love attribute test.”
In the second unexpected reward, an item that affects the four major attributes was released. At this level, it is no different from the revelation of a system that tells you to put attributes in a sword and use spirits.
-If you add the power of that stone to your elemental sensitivity, your sword can contain mid- to low-level elemental power. It’s natural to become stronger, and it also brings convenience.
“I’m drawn to it just by hearing it.”
Just hearing the words of darkness makes my heart pound. I wanted to learn attribute swords and elemental arts right away.
“Then what about the spirits? How far can I summon it?”
-I’m a sword, so why do you keep asking me? Go to the spiritist.
“There are a lot of things I don’t know.”
-Ugh, you’re crazy to ask a sword for its spirit!
“Tsk, tsk….”
– This guy is really!
Baek Woo-jin played with the stone while teasing the darkness.
“Should I eat this?”
-If you eat it, the energy contained in the stone will be slowly absorbed into your body.
“It’s not that big that you can’t eat it.”
The size of the spirit stone was about the size of three pills combined, so it didn’t seem like it would be a big problem to eat it.
“huh?”
Baek Woo-jin put the spirit stone in his mouth and tried to drink the water next to him. But there was no time to drink water. As soon as I put the spirit stone in my mouth, it melted like cotton candy.
[The four attributes’ spirit stones have been absorbed.]
[The four attributes’ sensitivity is permanently increased by 5 points.] [The
four attributes’ resistance is permanently increased by 5 points.]
[The remaining energy of the spirit stones is slowly absorbed.]
“It just melted. .”
-If you practice Aura in the future, not only Aura but also attribute sensitivity and resistance will slowly increase. This means that you have to put a lot of effort into Auror training.
“okay.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded with a satisfied smile.
[The reward for 10,000 swords will be paid]
Chiiing!
Mangeom’s reward also appeared as a card like an unexpected reward. But unlike before, there were only 10 cards floating around.
-That color!
The colors of the cards were flashing yellow, golden and red. The picture on the card was also different. What was supposed to be a dagger had become a colorful and beautiful long sword.
“That color represents rank, right?”
-I guess so.
I knew this because I had done several drawings so far. That meant that only rare, unique, and legendary cards came out without a hit.
“The boss is crazy. “It’s at the same level.”
-It seems like the system is leaving its mind somewhere.
“But since there are only 10, it’s rather difficult to choose.”
When there were 100 cards, there were too many, so I roughly picked them out, but when there were 10, my hands stopped moving.
-I don’t know what will come out, but just think of it as picking a rare. Even if you just get a rare, it’s beneficial.
“Of course.”
I nodded and placed my hand on the card in the middle. The card flashed yellow, golden and red, then stopped at red.
Paaaat!
A huge red light flashed, but nothing came out. Instead, a holographic window appeared in front of Baek Woo-jin.
[The door to the sword path has been opened.]
[Check the proficiency level.] [
The horizontal cut that has reached maturity has been confirmed.] [
The first door of the ten thousand swords, the door to the sharp sword, has been opened.]
[The fourth of the ten thousand swords The door of the thunder sword has been opened.]
[With a sword containing the power of pleasure and thunder, Lightning Island has been created.]
“Ah…”
In Baek Woo-jin’s mind, Lightning Island has been created. The sword furnace became hot. My hands were shaking. It felt like I could immediately use the Sword Blade, which I knew nothing about just a second ago.
– Holy crazy!
The darkness felt like my heart was sinking even though it wasn’t even there. I knew there was going to be something about swordsmanship, but I was blown away by the fact that Sword Road was made.
‘But… I didn’t just get it.’
It was said that the proficiency level would be checked by looking at the hologram window again. If Baek Woo-jin had neglected his efforts and had low skill in the horizontal cut, such a lightning island would not have been created.
In other words, it was a reward that could be obtained thanks to Baek Woo-jin’s added efforts.
-Hey, what are you doing?
Darkness hid his surprise and admiration and called Baek Woo-jin, who was in awe.
“The sword is stuck in my head….”
– I bow to the system. You lucky swordsman!
“ha ha ha!”
Baek Woo-jin laughed with joy. No matter what the darkness said, it was just fun.
“I want to go back quickly and practice.”
-You’re really out of your mind to say something like that in the recovery room.
**
“I’ve been there.”
Just as Baek Woo-jin was unfolding a new sword path in his head, Moon Ju-young returned.
“Good work. “Come and sit down.”
“thank you.”
“What on earth did you say to that guy earlier? “Why do you see me as a hero?”
As soon as Moon Ju-young sat down, Baek Woo-jin asked what he was curious about.
“I just told the truth.”
Moon Ju-young confidently opened her mouth as if there was no problem at all.
“You told me about how you stepped forward to save people who were trapped in a multi-level swamp. “Infiltrate their guild, make plans, fight alone…”
Moon Joo-young recited Baek Woo-jin’s story for five minutes with reverence as if she was telling the biography of some kind of hero.
However, that fact was greatly embellished. If a stranger heard it, they would believe that he was reading a biography of a great man.
“In the end, didn’t you go out of your way to save people without paying anything in return? “That’s what impressed everyone.”
“That’s true, but…”
I couldn’t say ‘The quest was a bit big’ to Moon Joo-young, who was giving me innocent eyes. No words came out of my throat.
“I just told everyone about it! As if my intentions were conveyed, many talented people are praising the master’s achievements. Of course, there are people who don’t believe, but…”
Moon Joo-young frowned, as if she didn’t like people who didn’t believe.
“Hmm…”
I was dumbfounded, but I couldn’t say anything to the guy who only said nice things to me. And thanks to this guy, didn’t he receive a reward of 10,000 swords?
However, there was something a little strange. Moon Joo-young’s personality is very different from the beginning.
“Hasn’t your personality changed a bit? “It was very quiet and calm at first.”
“young master. Do you know what kind of image Shingeombaekga has to the outside world?”
Moon Joo-young suddenly gave an unexpected answer.
“image?”
“They are called a strong but cold and cold guild. “The Shingeombaekga are called a family that abandoned humanity in pursuit of machine-like strength.”
“okay. “You know that.”
I nodded. He knew that better than anyone else.
“I wanted to change the Baekga, which only has its strength. But there was nothing the individual prosecutors could do. “Like-minded colleagues left the family, and the person who helped them eventually gave up.”
Hearing Moon Ju-young’s story for the first time, Baek Woo-jin did not say anything and just nodded.
“In the midst of letting go of everything and becoming a swordsman of the Black Swordsman, I saw you. Master, you are different from other immediate family members. “At first, I thought you were pretentious.”
“okay. “You might think so.”
Baek Woo-jin also knew the ruthlessness of the Baek family, so he understood Moon Ju-young’s words.
“But no. “Young Master was truly considerate and took care of others.”
Moon Joo-young continued speaking while clenching his fists.
“Other direct officials treat their guards and prosecutors like objects. But Master treated me and Junhyuk as the same person.”
Baek Woo-jin was trying to take care of the people who came to him because he was ignored and criticized a lot. They seem to have moved Moon Joo-young’s heart.
“When the Master said he would trust me and showed me his secret, I decided to follow him for the rest of my life. When he said he would save people at no cost, I decided to sacrifice my life.”
When Baek Woo-jin heard Moon Joo-young’s sincere words, he felt his heart heating up. He was a prosecutor who wanted to change the Shingeombaekga just like himself.
“I’ll change it.”
“yes?”
“I also really hate the current Shingeombaekga. So they say they will change it.”
Baek Woo-jin also expressed his thoughts for the first time other than darkness.
“I will change it into a place where people can live, not a place where people can live, and where colleagues are taken care of before performance.”
“I will follow!”
Moon Ju-young knelt down and bowed to Baek Woo-jin.
“If there is anything I can do, please let me know.”
“It’s not urgent, but please find a spiritist. “Someone with a bit of standard.”
“Do you really have a knack for elemental magic?”
“little.”
Moon Joo-young’s lips trembled. I really have no idea how far this person’s abilities are, given that he even had the talent for elemental magic.
“I will definitely find a spiritist suitable for you!”
“That’s right.”
I was a little anxious because Moon Joo-young spoke so forcefully, but I decided to believe what I believed.
**
As soon as Baek Woo-jin returned to the family, he was called by Baek Cheon-hwa. Since it was something I expected, I didn’t panic and went inside calmly.
“See you, matriarch.”
“You did something interesting.”
A heavy and heavy voice flowed from Baek Cheon-hwa’s mouth. I felt like I couldn’t breathe.
“Why did you come forward?”
I got a chill from my father’s penetrating gaze.
“I got into a fight with a guild in a dungeon.”
“I know that. But why did you destroy not only those guys, but also the guild behind them?”
Baek Woo-jin calmly took a breath and answered.
“I am a direct descendant of the Shingeombaek family. Challenging me is no different from challenging Shingeombaekga. “I thought we had to destroy them all, regardless of who was behind them.”
“You hid your identity, didn’t you?”
“That doesn’t matter. No matter who the opponent is or what state he or she is in, if he or she is recognized as an enemy, the swordsmanship of Shingeombaekga is to destroy everything the enemy has. “There is nothing that can stand in front of the Baek family.”
“Tsk!”
This is a nonsensical answer. This answer is not only selfish but also unlucky. But a smile appeared on Baek Cheon-hwa’s lips.
‘Actually, the reason doesn’t matter.’
To Baek Cheon-hwa, the only thing that matters is whether he won or lost. The question of why was merely a courtesy.
From the time Baek Woo-jin defeated Jeong Hyeong-woon, Baek Cheon-hwa’s reaction was no different from what was expected.
“Are you 16 now?”
“That’s right.”
“Capturing a level 5 ability at the age of 16 is something that no guild or family has been able to achieve.”
Baek Cheon-hwa lifted his chin. He nodded with an intrigued smile.
“excellent.”
Baek Woo-jin could not believe his ears. ‘It’s great.’ I never imagined that such words would come out of my father’s mouth. Goosebumps appeared all over my body.
“However, there are people who doubt whether you really beat a level 5 swordsman. In particular, those who are trying to match our family are making fun of their mouths.”
“That’s…”
“Try to make them shut up yourself.”
Baek Tian-hwa rested his chin again and raised his finger.
“I’ll lay the board down.”
