Episode 8. Auror Training (3)
“Black Auror…?”
“Aurors are black!”
The beads that Baek Woo-jin placed his hand on were stained black enough to give goosebumps. A black mist seemed to flow within the orb.
– Baek Woo-jin! Avoid!
Suddenly, a dark, urgent voice was heard.
‘what?’
A silver blade flew towards Baek Woo-jin’s neck as he was about to take his hand off the marble. Second, Baek Eun-kyung swung her sword with the intention of cutting Baek Woo-jin’s throat.
Kyaang!
Baek Seong-hyeon suddenly appeared and blocked Baek Eun-kyung’s sword.
“What…”
He couldn’t understand why Baek Eun-kyung was swinging her sword at him.
“sister! “What are you doing!”
“Move. That’s Magi. “He received the power of a demon.”
“You mean demons! “It’s just that the aurors are black!”
“korea. No, I have never heard of a person in the entire world using black aurors.”
“That’s true, but Woojin’s auror is not a demon! Look carefully!”
“If you don’t get out of the way, I’ll cut you down first.”
Geek!
The pressure from Baek Eun-kyung’s sword became more intense. When Baek Sung-hyeon frowned and tried to unleash his power, an unimaginably gigantic force hit them like a wave.
“Keuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu her her element her element
,
eclipsing Eun-kyung Baek and Baek Seong-hyeon. Without lifting a finger, he used only his momentum to immobilize the two.
“Eun-kyung.”
“Yes…”
“When did I say it was okay to draw my sword?”
“That…”
“When did I say it was okay to kill your brother?”
“I’m sorry….”
The pressure coming from Baek Chun-hwa grew exponentially. Baek Eun-kyung couldn’t lift a finger. All I could do was shake my whole body and hold on.
“See with your own eyes.”
Baek Cheon-hwa pointed to a black-stained bead.
“Unlike the demonic energy of the demon race, it is extremely pure mana. As the third said, the colors are just different. That power is from an auror who practiced mana.”
“Ah…”
Baek Eun-kyung looked at the black beads and nodded. As Baek Cheon-hwa said, he felt pure mana from Baek Woo-jin’s aura.
“It is as you said. sorry.”
Baek Eun-kyung admitted that she had made a mistake, came to Baek Cheon-hwa, knelt down, and hit her head on the floor.
“I know that you have a deep grudge against the demons. But with such a careless attitude, you will end up sacrificing your head.”
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
“For the crime of carelessly drawing a sword in front of the head of the family, I am ordering you to be imprisoned for six months.”
“All right.”
Baek Eun-kyung bowed her head again to Baek Cheon-hwa. She apologized to Baek Seong-hyeon and Baek Woo-jin and then returned to her seat.
‘As expected, they are taking care of Baek Eun-kyung.’
Baek Woo-jin gave Baek Eun-kyung a look as she returned to her seat. Since he was an excellent swordsman ranked in the late 7th level, Baek Tian-hwa did not punish him too harshly.
If the incompetent bastard had done the same thing just now, I would have cut off his arm at best.
‘But I was the one who suffered.’
It was not his father who was just about to die, but himself. It’s ridiculous that they tried to kill him and ended it with just an apology.
After all, you have to become strong to survive in this family. So that no one can ignore it.
‘It will never happen like this again…’
Baek Woo-jin realized that he had to become stronger so that he would never be treated like this again.
“Woojin.”
“yes.”
“I’ve never seen a black Auror before. However, the thick and pure scent of mana and the subversive energy contained within it are clearly felt. “Congratulations on getting a good Auror.”
The expressions of the immediate family members became blank at Baek Tian-hwa’s words. They themselves have special aurors, but they have never heard of such a thing.
Baek Tian-hwa, who was frugal with praise, said this, which meant that the black auror Baek Woo-jin acquired was special among them.
“thank you.”
Baek Woo-jin answered with a calm face that could not be considered a person who was in danger of death. Baek Cheon-hwa’s eyes sparkled at that sight.
“Just ask one question.”
“yes.”
“Why did you accumulate mana in the Danjeon?”
“Dantian?”
“You built up mana in the Danjeon?”
“Aren’t you crazy?”
There was a commotion in the Geomshinjeon Hall. Although others did not know, Baek Cheon-hwa knew at a glance that Baek Woo-jin had accumulated mana in the Danjeon.
‘As expected…’
Baek Woo-jin bit his lip. If you say something wrong here, your father may break your dantian. The absolute person sitting in front of you is that kind of person.
Based on the memories of returning, you must come up with an answer that will please Baek Cheon-hwa.
“Because I am different.”
“different?”
“yes. Unlike my older brothers and sisters, I did not have the talent of the Baek family. The body is not strong and the heart is not active. “My heart has a big drawback in feeling and using mana.”
Baek Woo-jin glanced at the places where his immediate superiors were and then spoke again.
“I changed my mind. Rather than following others, I decided to create my own path. So I decided to abandon the heart, which has its shortcomings, and use the dantian.”
As soon as Baek Woo-jin finished speaking, Geomshinjeon began to buzz again. It was muttered quietly, so I couldn’t hear it properly, but it was clear that it was swearing and mocking.
Because it was already expected, Baek Woo-jin was just looking at Baek Cheon-hwa without any change in expression.
“Do you know what Danjeon practice is? That’s a technique used by lower-level guilds that haven’t created the heart training method. No, it is an outdated technology that even low-level guilds do not use now.”
“I know.”
“Then do you also know that you can never learn heart exercises again?”
“yes. “I know that too.”
Baek Woo-jin was not at all intimidated by Baek Cheon-hwa’s cold voice. Other immediate staff who saw this became even more nervous. Their hands were sweating.
“And yet you chose that method? “Knowing that it is much less efficient than the heart?”
“I will strengthen myself by creating a path through Danjeon practice. “Without further ado, I will prove it with the results.”
Baek Woo-jin looked at Baek Myung-hoon, who was grinding his teeth at him, and then answered. Just as he defeated Baek Myung-hoon, he meant that he would continue to show results in the future.
“Kk… Hahahaha!”
A laugh as cool as carbon dioxide burst from Baek Cheon-hwa’s mouth. The direct relatives were stunned because it was their first time seeing Baek Chun-hwa smile like that.
“Tsk tsk tsk! Very cocky. But that’s why I like it even more. okay. “Do whatever you want.”
“Ah…”
I sighed inwardly. I was prepared to lose my head, but fortunately, my father seemed to appreciate my answer.
‘As expected, the right answer was to go out with confidence.’
In my previous life, my father disliked incompetent people, but he viewed people who were servile or hunched over like insects.
It seems that the words of proudly showing the results without saying too much touched his heart.
“good night. “This is the end of today’s apparitions.”
Baek Cheon-hwa looked down at everyone and announced the end of the event. His voice seemed a little excited, as if he was not in a bad mood.
“Woojin. “I look forward to the results of what you said.”
At Baek Cheon-hwa’s words, the eyes of the immediate family were focused on Baek Woo-jin. Their eyes contained a jealousy that I had never experienced before in my life.
Baek Woo-jin was not at all intimidated by their eyes and answered cheerfully.
“of course.”
**
“Haa….”
Baek Woo-jin, who returned to his room, took a deep breath. He looked out the window and shook his head.
-The guy who just opened up his mana can’t believe he’s openly saying that he’ll show them the results in front of such powerful people. My liver was very swollen.
“That was the only answer.”
-The answer?
“okay. “If I hadn’t answered properly or hesitated, my father would have destroyed my Danjeon.”
-You’re destroying your son’s Danjeon? That makes sense…
“My father values family name more than anything else. “If I were to disgrace my family because of the Danjeon practice I learned, I would do even worse.”
Heukam may not have known it, but Baek Woo-jin had already predicted this situation when he decided to learn the Danjeon practice.
“He hates being servile. That’s why I went out confidently from the start. “I don’t know if it’s a good thing because my brothers will keep me in check because of my father’s last words, but…”
I thought about the eyes of my brothers who were looking at me as I left the Sword God Hall. Unlike his previous life where he blatantly ignored him, he was giving him a look of restraint.
-So now you have a chance?
“okay. However, I need to show you the results as I said. “If you don’t do that, things will be even more difficult than your previous life.”
-Don’t worry about that. I will make you a swordsman who cannot be defeated by anyone.
Confidence flowed like a river from the dark voice. It gave off a feeling of telling me to just trust myself and follow him.
‘As expected, this guy is a thing.’
Since the darkness was also in Geomsinjeon, I was able to know the atmosphere there. A guy with few auras like Baek Woo-jin would have been suffocated just by being in that place.
However, Baek Woo-jin stood more confidently than anyone else there and spoke more refreshingly than anyone else. The more I look at him, the more I like him.
-But what are you doing?
Darkness saw that Baek Woo-jin had brought a hammer and a stone and approached him.
“Because I learned the Auror technique. Now I have to build up my aura properly.”
-But why did you bring a hammer?
“I’m going to do this.”
Baek Woo-jin placed the Camel Stone he had received from Baek Seong-hyun on the floor and lifted the hammer.
Bye!
He struck down the hammer and shattered the Carmel Stone.
-What are you doing? Wasn’t that a gift from your brother?
“This is the proper use of this stone. “It will be revealed eight years from now.”
-Is this the correct way to use it?
“The way to use this Camel Stone now is to hold it in your arms while doing mana exercises. But after 8 years, the proper way to use it was revealed. “Just like this.”
Pure mana flowed out from the Camel Stone that Baek Woo-jin broke.
-This!
“When you break the Carmel Stone, the mana condensed within it spreads into the enclosed space. “The proper way to use the Camel Stone is to perform Aura exercises inside it and absorb all the mana inside the stone.”
-There is such a strange object…
Baek Woo-jin sat cross-legged, laughing at the startled appearance of the darkness.
“Then I’ll start practicing right away.”
-That’s right. Do it quickly before Mana runs away!
“It won’t run away, so don’t worry.”
Baek Woo-jin closed his eyes and used Cain’s Auror technique. The mana, which was smaller than the millet I normally felt, felt almost like a soccer ball.
‘That’s incredible. That’s why it was called the Mana Stone.’
The sensation of huge mana being absorbed into my body brought me much greater joy than I expected. The mana of the dantian, which was smaller than a pea, began to inflate like a balloon.
Baek Woo-jin fell into a trance and concentrated all his mind on absorbing mana.
**
It took Baek Woo-jin a day and a half to absorb all the mana covering the room. The auror settled in his Danjeon grew from the size of a bean to the size of a walnut.
-Good work. You…
As soon as Baek Woo-jin opened his eyes, darkness flew in front of him.
“Get out of the way. men and horses. “I can’t see the status window.”
– Ugh…
The status window hasn’t even appeared yet, but it was meant to make fun of Darkness. Since I spent a lot of time with Heukam, I already figured out how to make fun of him.
“It’s a joke.”
-Anyway, you really are…
When the darkness turned around and muttered, a hologram window appeared.
[By absorbing a large amount of mana, your mana ability increases by 5.]
[You have used the Camel Stone for the first time. 200 points are awarded.]
-Didn’t you say that the Carmel Stone is famous? What was the first time you used it?
“It must have popped up because what I used was the correct way to use it. “Until then, it would be considered unusable.”
-Well, you got lucky again.
“Thanks to the Camel Stone, my current Auror level is almost level 2, right?”
Thanks to the Camel Stone, everyone achieved level 2 Aura in an instant. It’s probably because I took the sweet pill of sensitivity and used up all the points I had before.
-that’s right. Your aurors have increased significantly. Thanks to that, my limitations have been broken.
“limit?”
-okay.
As soon as the darkness finished speaking, a new window appeared.
[The first seal of darkness is lifted.]
[The dagger form can be used as a perk for releasing the first seal.]
[The inventory can be used as a perk for releasing the first seal.]
