Episode 385 End and Beginning (Complete)
A long sword engulfed in golden flames roams the blue sky.
The sword was as graceful as the flapping of a butterfly’s wings and as beautiful as a mermaid’s dance.
Less evil.
The golden sword, which was enjoying its freedom, came down to the ground and was caught in Baek Woo-jin’s hand.
“Now I’m used to this sword.”
As I lightly swung the sword in my hand, the cell phone I had left on the table vibrated.
Ugh!
When I brought my cell phone out of thin air, it wasn’t a phone call, but an alarm that said ‘Start Day’.
“It’s time.”
Baek Woo-jin turned off the alarm and let go of the golden sword in his hand. It split the black space crosswise and disappeared into the blue dimension.
“Prosecutor!”
After cleaning up the gym, we went outside and Muyoung, who was enjoying sunbathing on the lawn, waved his hand.
“Where are you going this morning?”
“To check my start.”
“Starting?”
Perhaps because it was an unexpected answer, Muyeong-gaek suddenly stood up.
“Ohh! Are you planning on causing an accident when the wedding is just around the corner? As expected, prosecutor! “I respect you!”
“What nonsense are you talking about again?”
Baek Woo-jin frowned as he saw Mu Young-gaek smiling.
“If you say it starts at this time, there is nothing but first love. Who is your first love? I will bring you here without anyone knowing…”
“The head of the family is not trash like you!”
Moon Ju-young, who was carrying documents, sighed as if she was pathetic.
“Do you know what the prosecutor’s intentions are and open your mouth?”
“Matriarch, start with basic swordsmanship! “It’s natural that you want to enter the training room to practice basic swordsmanship!”
“Is that so? “Ah, it’s not fun…”
“The family head’s roots are not fun? “This thief is real!”
“I’m sorry, but that’s not it either.”
“Eh?”
“yes?”
Moo Young-gaek and Moon Ju-young turned their heads at Baek Woo-jin’s firm answer.
“Then where are you going?”
“I told you. “I’m going to check on my start.”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about, but I’ll follow you.”
“It looks like fun, I’ll go too!”
Moon Ju-young came to the side and Moo Young-gaek took a sip.
“You guys don’t follow me.”
“Eh? Where are you going, leaving me, your right hand man?”
“Matriarch!”
“To protect the family.”
He said that and waved his hand. The two people stopped blankly and looked at their backs.
‘I’m sorry, but it’s a really important day.’
Today is the only day where you can check who you were before and who you are now. You must go directly and alone.
“then.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled and put on the mask of the Manbyeongeum. An intense eye light flashed through the eye holes of the mask.
“Let’s go.”
**
Baek Woo-jin headed to a shopping mall in an apartment complex near Shingeombaekga. I sipped coffee at a cafe in a shopping mall and looked up at the sky.
“I remember. “That black sky.”
The sky is dark as if it will rain soon. However, what is falling today is not rain.
While I was watching people passing by in a shopping mall, I saw two children walking cheerfully.
Although it was my first time seeing these children, they were not my first time seeing them.
‘It’s time.’
Baek Woo-jin took a deep breath and left the cafe.
Absolutely!
A spiderweb-like crack appeared in the sky along with a sound as if someone had stepped on a dry tree branch.
“It’s a crack!”
“There was no warning, but suddenly what!”
“Run away now!”
The cracked sky is torn apart and hundreds of red dots shine. These were the evil eyes of monsters filled with murder and madness.
“Ahh….”
“Uuuuh!”
The children collapsed on the spot, sick of the murderous intent emanating from the monsters. My hands were shaking, as if I had no strength to move.
“Keeeeek!”
“Koooooo!”
The crack widens and monsters jump out. There were a lot of them, but there were also a variety of types, from goblins to troll ogres.
at that time.
Baek Woo-jin moved.
By harmonizing his will and aura, all the monsters that were pouring in were levitated into the air.
“Kwiik!”
“Kwaeook!”
They only screamed evil and could not move as if they were chained.
Only one.
Except for one giant ogre in the center.
“Koooooo!”
The ogre that fell behind the children runs screaming.
“I remember it. “As far as your appearance.”
Baek Woo-jin sent the children behind and blocked the ogre’s path.
Whoa!
The ogre’s ugly club fell towards his head.
“I’m sorry, but I’m different than I was then.”
In my previous life, I had to do everything I could to avoid an attack, but now I could easily block it just by raising my hand blade.
“Kwaaaah!”
The ogre roars and strikes repeatedly with its club.
Before returning, I felt fear that my heart would fall out every time the club came down, but today I was able to hit it with my eyes closed.
“Kaaaa!”
The ogre, irritated and angry, swung his club horizontally.
‘This is what happened.’
It was the attack that crushed all the bones in his body and drove him to death.
‘I still remember.’
The sight of the Shingeombaekga swordsman chopping up a monster between the giant paws of an ogre is still vivid.
I am where I am today thanks to seeing that and despairing that it was unfair, that talent was shit.
It was thanks to that memory that I became stronger, luckier, and able to always aim upward while receiving recognition from everyone.
Teuong!
When I waved my hand as if shooing away a fly, the club broke and the ogre flew away, vomiting blood.
“Keuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…”
The dying ogre and the monsters floating in the air gathered in front of the crack.
“Gone with the cracks.”
Baek Woo-jin hit his right hand vertically.
Quaaaaa!
The vicious sword strike that rose from the blade of the hand tore through the monsters and ripped open the cracks.
“Tearing apart the cracks?”
“Is something like that possible?”
“100 million!”
“Wow…”
The people around them sat down in shock, and the talented people who ran to stop the monsters opened their mouths with stunned faces.
“Ah…”
Baek Woo-jin turned around at the sound of a low groan. The two children were looking at them with tearful eyes.
“Are you okay?”
I approached the children with a gentle smile.
“Thank you.”
“Aaaah!”
One child held back his tears and lowered his head, and the child next to him burst into tears.
“It’s okay now.”
When I stroked the children’s heads, the crying child stopped crying and the child who said thank you started crying.
“Over there!”
“Hey!”
While I was comforting the children, people and people around me came running.
“Go back home.”
He waved at the two children and then disappeared.
“uh? “Oh man!”
“Where did he just go?”
“hey!”
While people and talented people were looking for him, Baek Woo-jin went up to the rooftop of the building next door.
“This was my beginning.”
Your beginning is not when you are born or when you return.
Right here.
Although he had the cause of revenge on the Shingeombaek family, he started by risking his life against the ogre for the sake of his children.
Karen also said that she chose her after seeing her save children.
Baek Woo-jin took off his mask as a demon while looking at the children crying in the arms of the talented people.
“thanks.”
**
Whether it was raining or snowing, the front door of Shingeombaekga, which had been tightly shut, was wide open. Above the main gate, white and red flowers were spread out like a bridge.
“welcome.”
Prosecutors at the medical school greeted guests who entered wearing formal uniforms rather than combat uniforms.
When you enter the main gate and receive their greetings, you will come across a path lined with countless wreaths.
What was written on the wreath was a stereotypical message congratulating the marriage, but the group that wrote it was a large guild and powerful people whose names you would probably recognize.
If you walk along the wreath road, you will come across the central garden of Singeombaekga.
The garden was managed directly by Baek Cheon-woong, the head of the family, and although it was not flashy, it was an elegant and warm place.
In front of the garden, the direct descendants of the Baek family, including Baek Woo-jin and Baek Yeon-hwi, dressed in black tuxedos, came out to greet the guests.
“Elder. Thank you for coming.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled brightly as he held Yoon Woo-min’s hand.
“What are you talking about? “It’s my student’s wedding, so of course I have to come!”
Yoon Woo-min laughed with a lively expression.
“uh? student?”
Jeong Geun-ho rolled his eyes at Yoon Woo-min.
“Elder! Obviously, we are not students…”
“You are not, but Woojin is.”
“Keuung!”
“ha ha ha!”
Yoon Woo-min lightly tapped Jeong Geun-ho on the back of the head and entered the garden where the ceremony was held.
“Well congratulations.”
Contrary to his words of congratulations, Jeong Geun-ho’s tone seemed to be full of dissatisfaction.
“thanks. “You still look the same.”
“How can you be happy when you take the most beautiful woman in Korea with you? “I feel blessed!”
“I know.”
“Live well!”
After laughing leisurely, Jeong Geun-ho quenched his appetite and chased after Yoon Woo-min.
“Lord Baek. “Congratulations on your marriage.”
As Jeong Geun-ho left, Yoo Jin-ah, who became the head of Black Market, approached with a sales smile.
“thank you.”
“That’s too bad. “I was trying to seduce the matriarch.”
She smiled and winked.
“I only look at one side.”
“Well, the bride’s beauty is no joke.”
Yoo Jin-ah headed to the garden with her direct subordinates, smiling a mixture of joking and sincerity.
“Your face has become clearer!”
Hwang Byeong-hun walked over with a cool smile.
“Commander-in-Chief!”
“Now just call me uncle.”
“For us, you are always the Commander-in-Chief.”
Baek Yeon-hwi, who had come to greet another guest, held Hwang Byeong-hun’s hand.
“Hey you guys! “Let me go so I can retire!”
“Having said that, didn’t you fly during last year’s ‘Cheonma Daejeon’?”
“Don’t look down on the old man’s first year. “I’m getting older with each passing day.”
Contrary to his weak voice, Hwang Byeong-hun held his hand and shook it as if he would break it.
“You’re a good child, so don’t cry and live happily.”
“thank you.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled slightly and lowered his head. After greeting the talented people from the front lines who came with Hwang Byeong-Hoon, he let them into the ceremony hall.
“Congratulations on your marriage. “Benefactor.”
When I turned my head to the elegant voice, the sword lord and sword lord were standing there smiling.
“Thank you for coming here.”
“This cannot even be compared to the grace our benefactor has bestowed upon us. “If our benefactor hadn’t come last year, Geomgak would have been destroyed.”
Geomhu was talking about the ‘Cheonma Daejeon’ that took place last year.
“I only helped a little.”
“I don’t think we can repay that small favor even if we spend the rest of our lives. Thank you again.”
The sword lord and sword lord exchanged polite arms and then went inside.
“Lord Baek! “Congratulations on your wedding!”
Lee Young-hyun, who became the head of the Talent Association, ran over and bowed his head.
“You must be busy, but thank you for coming. “Director.”
“It’s the head of the family’s wedding, so even if the world is destroyed, you have to come!”
Lee Young-hyun jumped as much as his elevated position.
“As a senior in marriage, may I tell you something?”
“of course.”
“Marriage really begins when you get used to each other after the exciting life of a newlywed. There will be many difficult times and sad times, but if you live with a generous heart and understanding each other, you will be happy.”
“Thank you for the advice. “If I had known this would happen, I would have asked the manager to officiate.”
“Kya! “It would have been a source of pride for the family if I had been officiating for the Baek family, but it’s a shame.”
Younghyun Lee scratched the back of his head and laughed loudly.
“I am truly grateful for the past 10 years.”
“Me too.”
He bowed deeply and entered the ceremony hall.
After that, people from many organizations and guilds sent congratulatory messages.
“Everyone who comes says they are grateful to you. “I’ve been to a lot of weddings, but this is the first time I’ve seen the groom just say thank you.”
Baek Cheon-woong approached with a smile on his face.
“It’s mutual aid.”
Baek Woo-jin shook his head. They always say they are grateful for their help, but they themselves have also received great help from them. Because we had each other, we were able to reach our respective positions.
[It is 10 minutes before the main ceremony starts. All guests, please come into the ceremony hall.]
The host’s voice was heard from inside the ceremony hall.
“I’m going to go to the bride’s waiting room for a moment.”
Since I couldn’t see any more customers coming in, I thought it would be okay to move around for a bit.
“You went there earlier.”
Baek Eun-kyung, who was about to enter the ceremony hall, turned her head.
“I’m going to see it one last time.”
“anyway.”
“I’ll be right back.”
I grinned and headed to the makeshift bridal waiting room.
“Tsk.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled and clicked his tongue briefly.
‘In the end, this scrap metal is not coming.’
Even though two months had passed since the scheduled time, Darkness and Karen did not return.
I didn’t necessarily say 4 years, but I didn’t think it would come until 2 months later.
‘I hope you’ll be okay.’
Worrying that something bad might have happened to them outweighed the regret of not being able to come to the wedding.
As I walked and thought, I arrived in front of the bride’s waiting room.
“Come on in.”
When I knocked lightly on the door, I heard her voice filled with deep excitement.
I opened the door and went inside. Jeok Yeon-hwa and Seo In-ah, who were sitting on the white sofa, raised their heads at the same time.
Although they were sitting together, their attire was noticeably different.
Jeok Yeon-hwa wore a pure white wedding dress that exposed her shoulders, and Seo In-ah wore a dark-toned suit.
“and! “You said you missed your bride so much that you came again?”
Seo In-ah narrowed her eyes.
“Rather than wanting to see you, I came here to check if everything was ready before it started.”
Baek Woo-jin scratched the hair below his ears and looked at Jeok Yeon-hwa.
Her figure, with skin whiter than a dress and red hair down to her waist, was more beautiful than any woman I had ever seen.
“Are your friends here?”
Jeok Yeon-hwa lowered her thin eyebrows and looked at herself.
“Unfortunately, you didn’t come.”
“Ah…”
“It’s okay. “I can receive the congratulatory money several times later.”
There was no need to worry about Jeok Yeon-hwa, so she smiled generously.
[It’s 5 minutes before the main ceremony starts. All guests, please be seated.]
The emcee’s voice came from the speaker saying there were 5 minutes left.
“I guess I should go too. See you later.”
“yes.”
“Still Jondae?”
“Oh yeah.”
Jeok Yeon-hwa lowered her head as if she was embarrassed.
“Thank you for coming.”
“I came not because of the matriarch, but because of Yeonhwa!”
“anyway.”
I waved my hand and left the waiting room. As I was about to head to the ceremony site, the front door of Shingeombaekga began to turn black and distorted.
Kwaaaaaaaa!
Something protruding from the distorted space fell and dust rose up.
“What’s going on!”
“Are you an enemy?”
Surprised by the loud noise, Seo In-ah and Jeok Yeon-hwa opened the door and came out.
“You’re finally here.”
“yes?”
“The guy I mentioned earlier has come.”
I smiled at the two people and ran to the front door.
Whoa!
The gray dust settled, revealing the two men and women.
The woman was a beautiful girl with blond hair and white skin, like an angel from mythology, and the man with a scary appearance was emitting unpleasant energy as if he had just been in a war.
“Hahaha!”
The man who found himself burst into laughter.
“who are you!”
“How dare you in the White House… gasp!”
The swordsmen of the White House attempted to rush at the man, but stopped as if frozen by his mighty force.
Slurp!
A man walks over, pulling a sword from his waist.
“Changcheon.”
Baek Woo-jin also approached the man and stretched out his hand. The sky split open and a golden sword descended into his hand.
Wooooow!
Baek Woo-jin and the man slashed their swords at each other’s necks as if they had met enemies.
Kwaaaaaaaa!
The shock wave that exploded as swords collided sank the earth and split the sky.
“It’s a sword I’ve never seen before.”
The man said while looking at the golden sword.
“I somehow got it.”
Baek Woo-jin laughed.
“It looks like your luck is still there.”
“Your dullness is still the same.”
“joy!”
The man frowned and drew his sword to the right.
“It’s clear how much Jeok Yeon-hwa has been hurt to hear that you’re getting married.”
“Would you rather be Karen, who has waited for thousands of years?”
Baek Woo-jin grinned and glanced at the blonde woman behind him.
“I’m in a different situation!”
“You still don’t know? “You can’t beat me with words.”
After dropping the man’s sword, he held the sword of the Changcheon Sword to his neck.
“I guess so. “The swordsmanship is still the same.”
The man chuckled as he sheathed his sword.
“I’ve been there. “Baek Woo-jin.”
“Welcome. “Darkness.”
Baek Woo-jin returned the Changcheon Sword and had a smile on his face.
“Those two people really never change.”
Karen, who was behind the darkness, smiled brightly and approached.
“Congratulations on your marriage. “Woojin.”
“thank you. “It’s not long until the ceremony starts, so let’s go in.”
He lightly dusted off the dust from his clothes and guided Darkness and Karen.
“Cain. let’s go.”
“hmm.”
“You two, please stay for a while after the ceremony.”
I turned to the darkness and Karen that were following me.
“why?”
“Because I want to introduce you to Yeonhwa and others.”
Baek Woo-jin gave a warm look to the dark Karen.
“How are you going to introduce yourself?”
“Friend.”
He turned his head and continued speaking.
“I would say best friends.”
“A risk!”
“Hehe!”
Darkness kept clearing his throat as if he was embarrassed, and Karen smiled.
“Baek Woo-jin, you must have paid for Reflex, right? “There is a truckload of dramas I want to see.”
The guy lowered his head, probably trying to hide his embarrassment, and changed the subject.
“It’s ruined there.”
“Huh? Then you recorded it, right?”
“Ah…”
Baek Woo-jin pursed his mouth.
“I forgot.”
“profit!”
Tendons bulged above the dark forehead.
“This scoundrel, until the end!”
“ha ha ha!”
