Episode 55 Learning Spiritual Art (4)
– Hmm…
Heukam was surprised that Geomro suddenly appeared, but in a way, he thought it was worth it.
Baek Woo-jin spent all his time training except for eating, sleeping, and beating Jeong Geun-ho.
I’m usually into training, but for the past 20 days, it could be said that I’ve been crazy about swordsmanship.
“This is where it explodes.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled brightly with joy.
I really had no idea that he would come to summon a spirit and open the sword path of stabbing.
‘Darkness.’
-What?
‘What’s going on? I thought there would be an uproar for crying again.’
-It’s luck…
Darkness turned towards Baek Woo-jin.
-Because it’s not just luck.
‘what?
-This incident is the result of you training with all your might. Unlike the lottery, it’s not just about luck. There’s nothing to say. On the contrary, I would like to say that you did well.
Darkness honestly told me what he felt.
It is true that I don’t like the fact that Baek Woo-jin achieves everything through luck, but I had no intention of disparaging the results of his efforts.
It was thanks to Baek Woo-jin’s efforts that he obtained Geomro this time.
‘It’s been a long time since I heard a compliment.’
I was moved to hear Dark’s sincere words.
-I say this every time, but I do it when I praise someone. Except for that damn thing.
“ha ha ha!”
Baek Woo-jin burst into cheerful laughter.
I felt indescribably good because it felt like I had accomplished something for the first time in a long time.
Baek Woo-jin, who laughed heartily, looked at Geomro’s information again.
‘Darkness. The second attribute of Guan Ilgeuk is that it stabs at the right point, right?’
-right. It is an attribute that allows you to accurately hit the target location without any error.
‘Then what is a blank sword?’
-Gong (空) means empty.
‘Empty?’
-okay.
Darkness approached Baek Woo-jin and continued speaking.
-What should I do if it’s empty?
‘I guess I’ll have to fill it up.’
-It’s just as you said. Empty sword is an attribute of swordsmanship that was added while you were molding the spirit energy. In other words, it means that it can contain the energy of the attribute.
‘what? Then, Gwanilgeuk…’
-If you summon a spirit, you will be able to use a sword containing the four major attributes. Of course, only limited to Gwanilgeuk.
‘Huh…’
Since it is a sword that can contain the power of the four major attributes, I wanted to test it by summoning a spirit right away.
“oh!”
When Baek Woo-jin was about to turn around to form the spirit’s energy again, Yoon Woo-min’s exclamation was heard.
“You finally did it.”
Yoon Woo-min approached Baek Woo-jin with a satisfied smile.
“Ah yes. “It’s swordsmanship, huh?”
-omg!
Baek Woo-jin, who turned his head to Yoon Woo-min, opened his eyes wide and the darkness let out an exclamation.
“Uh, when…”
The spirit energy floating behind him shrunk like a bead and was colored red.
Baek Woo-jin even created the spirit’s energy without even realizing it.
“fence?”
“Oh no.”
“Since you were most familiar with the fire attribute, I thought the fire attribute would be the first. “Now that I have completed one, I will be able to sculpt the energies of all four major attributes within a few days.”
Yoon Woo-min patted Baek Woo-jin on the shoulder with an expression of pride.
I have trained about 10 spirit masters so far, but I have never seen anyone who trains as hard as Baek Woo-jin.
When I saw him trying hard, I wanted to help him with anything.
“thank you.”
“It’s been a while, so get some fresh air and buy the things you need to summon.”
“yes.”
“Take your training a bit more leisurely.”
Yoon Woo-min entered the house with a smile.
-When did you create the spirit energy?
‘I didn’t know either.’
I was so preoccupied with the creation of the sword that I didn’t even know that I had sculpted the spirit’s energy.
‘I don’t know exactly what happened, but I can finally summon the spirit.’
-hey. I take back what I said earlier.
‘huh?’
The darkness trembled with its blade.
-You are no different from a lucky bug that lives only on luck!
**
A middle-aged man was looking down at the city from the sky lounge.
“My lord.”
A young man with his hair pulled back appeared behind the middle-aged man.
“I found Baek Woo-jin.”
The young man lowered his head and opened his mouth.
“Where were you?”
“It’s Yanggu.”
The middle-aged man turned around after hearing the word Yanggu.
The middle-aged man had a neat appearance, but his left eye was covered with a red eyepatch.
“Where is Yanggu?”
“They said they knew the approximate location, but couldn’t track it down to the end because of its excellent locating ability. Are we going to attack them before they notice?”
“no.”
The middle-aged man put down the glass he was holding and smiled.
Although he was smiling, a terrible anger was blooming in him.
“Because of that damn bastard, we lost the Incarnation of Fire and Zeno’s name was trampled, so we can’t just kill him.”
The middle-aged man had a razor-sharp life flowing out of his body.
This man was Oh Seong-hwan, the leader of the criminal guild Zenon, who gave the order to attack the Craftsman’s Island.
“From what I’ve seen so far, Baek Woo-jin can’t just ignore the damage around him. It means that he has the personality of a very good hero. “Then you know how to handle it, right?”
“All right. “Who should we send?”
“This guy is good at using a sword, so send the Sword Breaker and the Ironclad Team.”
“All right.”
When the man disappeared, the middle-aged man raised his drink again.
“No one is as easy to kill as a hero.”
**
“Whoa…”
Baek Woo-jin took a breath as he looked at the summoning circle created in front of him.
After 10 days of modeling the four major attributes, it was finally time to summon the spirit.
“If you send back a spirit that is weaker than you expected when you summoned it, you may not be able to make a spirit contract again.”
“yes. I know.”
“In the future, when your level gets stronger, you will have the opportunity to summon again, so make a contract with the spirit that comes out. “These are the guys who came from afar for you.”
“Of course I know.”
If you send back the summoned spirit and call another spirit because you want to have a stronger spirit, you may not be able to make a contract with the spirits due to the spirit king’s anger.
“Then stand in front of the summoning circle.”
Yoon Woo-min calculated the sensitivity of Baek Woo-jin, who was clenching his fist in front of the summons.
‘Is there a 97% chance of a low-level spirit appearing and a 3% chance of a mid-level spirit? There are very small variables, but you don’t need to worry about them.’
It is true that Baek Woo-jin is very talented, but he was unable to make very deep progress because he was training in all four attributes.
Lesser spirits will be summoned for sure, but anything beyond that will be difficult.
“Preparations for the week are done.”
Jeong Geun-ho, who has now become Sundingi, completed the summoning circle and rubbed his hands.
“thank you.”
“at all! “I am grateful.”
I don’t know what he was thankful for, but Jeong Geun-ho waved his hand and stepped back.
“Raise your hand on the summoning circle and use your earth element sensitivity.”
“yes!”
Baek Woo-jin nodded and placed his hand on the summoning circle.
Coo goo goo.
A small vibration occurred in the summoning circle, and yellow light flashed.
When the light disappeared, the magic circle disappeared and a brown turtle appeared in its place.
“You succeeded! “I am the Earth Turtle, a minor spirit of the earth.”
“yes. I know.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled and stroked the Earth Turtle’s head.
“Sign the contract right away.”
“yes!”
Baek Woo-jin imparted earthly sensitivity to the Earth Turtle, who enjoyed his touch.
Chiiing!
When the sensitive power was transmitted, the white thread from the hearts of Baek Woo-jin and the Earth Turtle were tied, and a contract between humans and spirits was made.
“We have to do it three more times, so let’s move on quickly.”
Yoon Woo-min quickly drew a summoning circle to summon the water spirit.
Ugh.
Baek Woo-jin began his second summoning using water sensitivity.
Fluffy.
With the sound of pouring water, a bird made of water appeared in the air.
It looked like a concave-eyed guy, but was bigger.
“I am Nyx, a minor spirit of water. “Among them, the cutest-looking one was caught.”
“I see.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled brightly and scratched Nix’s head with his fingers. It felt as cool as if I was in the valley water.
-Hahaha!
Darkness, which had even seen Nyx, suddenly burst into laughter.
‘Why did you suddenly lose your mind?’
-It looks like your luck and the system’s protection are over. Since I’m a junior in a row, I don’t have to worry anymore.
I was worried that Baek Woo-jin would summon mid-level spirits, but looking at that pattern, it seemed like only low-level spirits would come out.
I felt much better.
‘I do not care.’
Baek Woo-jin looked at the spirits with a truly grateful expression.
He came from far away to sign a contract with me, but I didn’t think about being disappointed because I wasn’t intermediate level from the beginning.
“Let’s make a contract.”
Whether Heukam teased him or not, Baek Woo-jin signed a contract with the Knicks.
While Baek Woo-jin signed the contract, Yoon Woo-min drew a new summons.
“The third is the wind.”
“yes.”
Baek Woo-jin used his wind sensitivity and called upon the wind spirit.
“huh?”
But nothing happened.
Since none of the spirits received Baek Woo-jin’s signal, the summoning itself was not proceeding.
“What is this…”
Even Yoon Woo-min couldn’t understand the situation.
“What happened?”
“I don’t know. “Try again.”
“Ah yes.”
Baek Woo-jin tried to respond to the summons again, but nothing changed.
“Wait a moment.”
Yoon Woo-min frowned after summoning the wind spirit and talking to him.
“How many times have you reverse-summoned Geunho’s spirits?”
“Well, I think it’s been more than twenty times.”
Every time I sparred with Jeong Geun-ho, I reverse-summoned the spirits, and sometimes even reverse-summoned the spirits, so it will definitely exceed 20 times.
“It seems that the spirit that was counter-summoned by you spread your news. “The wind spirits will not make a contract with you because they are afraid of you.”
“Then what about the fire spirit?”
“It’s going to be a mess. That’s how Geunho and Paeji lose. Why did you reverse summon it like that? If it had happened once or twice, it wouldn’t have been a problem. Number 20….”
“Ah….”
Baek Woo-jin’s mouth opened wide.
It had never occurred to me in my dreams that the spirits would not respond to the summons because they were afraid.
-This spirit is upset! You can’t summon fire and wind, right?
Heukam pretended to be worried, but he seemed happy on the inside.
There was laughter in his voice.
“I’m not me! “I really didn’t do anything!”
Jeong Geun-ho lay flat on the floor as if it had nothing to do with him.
“Then what should I do?”
“First of all, there are 8 rounds left until the summoning circle is maintained, so let’s try a few more times. If that doesn’t work, you have no choice but to wait until the spirits forget you.”
“All right.”
Baek Woo-jin bit his lip and stood in front of the summons, using his wind sensitivity.
There was no change, but the spirits continued to be summoned.
Whoa!
When Baek Woo-jin made his 8th attempt and was thinking about giving up, a huge wind blew around the summons.
Quaaaaa!
In the green gust, a different level of elemental power than before was being radiated.
Whoa!
Where the wind stopped, a green wolf with a mane like a lion appeared.
The size of the wolf was almost as big as a mid-size car.
[Grrr.]
The green wolf approached Baek Woo-jin and sniffed him.
“earthquake?”
An exclamation burst from Yoon Woo-min’s mouth.
That wolf was Jin, the intermediate spirit spirit of wind.
Baek Woo-jin summoned a middle-level spirit instead of a low-level spirit that refused to be summoned.
It was a tremendous result of a combination of luck and coincidence.
“Elder! “This guy is Jin, the middle-level spirit, right?”
“That’s right. right. “It’s Jin.”
“It’s really Jin!”
Baek Woo-jin burst out laughing and stroked Jin’s mane.
A cool sensation like the autumn breeze passed through my fingertips.
“How could something like this happen…”
Jeong Geun-ho looked at Jin with a mesmerized expression.
Even though he had trained for over 6 years, he was still unable to summon a mid-level spirit, and Baek Woo-jin, who had not trained for even 3 months, pulled out Jin. He was speechless because he felt unfair.
“jin. “Let’s make a contract.”
Baek Woo-jin made a contract with Jin by exchanging his sensitivity.
-Does this suddenly make sense as a mid-level spirit? uh? Is this life?
The difference between low-level spirits and mid-level spirits is indescribably large.
Baek Woo-jin instantly surpassed the ten-year training process required for spirit masters.
It’s also a combination of coincidence and luck.
“Please take care of me in the future. jin.”
[Grunt.]
Jin let out a happy cry as if he understood.
“Elder. “Please draw the final summoning circle.”
Baek Woo-jin called out to Yoon Woo-min, who was still unable to come to his senses.
“Oh yeah. That’s right.”
Yoon Woo-min shook his head to come to his senses.
If luck arises again, Baek Woo-jin will be able to select a mid-level Fire Spirit.
If you’re unlucky, you won’t get anything.
‘I’m nervous about what will happen.’
Yoon Woo-min installed a summoning circle that can summon the fire spirit.
“It’s the last time, so put all your effort into it.
“yes.”
Baek Woo-jin used his fire sensitivity with all his might and raised his hand to the summoning circle.
Pusik.
There was only a sound of deflation and no change.
This was expected, so I continued to use my sensitivity.
After number 9, it was time to reach number 10.
Coo coo coo coo.
The earth shook.
Flames soared throughout the summoning circle, and huge red wings flapped. The most gorgeous and intense flame Baek Woo-jin had ever seen burned.
