Episode 90. Arcane’s Request
[The vessel of fire is given a fitting name.]
[The Flame Dragon’s characteristic Gourmet Fire Flame is created.]
[The fire power of the Red Flame becomes stronger.]
[The control power of the Red Flame becomes stronger.]
The information window that appears is all Flame Dragon. It was about.
Seeing this information window meant that the flame dragon was named Ignis and now belonged solely to Baek Woo-jin.
‘It’s just as it says in the book.’
-what?
‘It was written in the book I saw at Unitas. It is said that if you give a name to the spirit that is the vessel, it will have special abilities or become stronger.’
-Then, the name Ignis….
‘As the flame dragon was given a suitable name, it developed characteristics and became stronger.’
Ding!
When Baek Woo-jin smiled brightly and looked back at the darkness, a new notification appeared.
[Fire property sensitivity increases by 10 points.]
[Fire property resistance increases by 15 points.]
[Obtain the title ‘Master of the Bowl’.]
[All abilities increase by 1 due to the effect of the title ‘Master of the Bowl’. ]
[The effects of the acquired title are applied over and over again.]
This time, it was not a Flame Dragon, but an information window showing Baek Woo-jin’s ability increased.
– Holy crazy! Why even you!
‘It exploded again.’
-10 sensitivity and 15 points of resistance? Now I can survive even if I fall into lava!
A twisted groan came out of the mouth of darkness after seeing all the contents.
“Master Do, what is happening?”
Hong A-ra was startled and her hands trembled.
Her eyes were full of worry about Ignis.
“You do not have to worry. “Because I’m getting stronger.”
“Getting stronger?”
“okay. “The fire will go out soon.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled and told him not to worry.
As he said, soon the orange flames began to subside.
“Crung!”
The red flames disappeared and a slightly larger Ignis appeared.
“Three horns?”
“That’s right. “There’s another one in the middle!”
Even in its flame dragon form and in its small form, it only had two horns, but after it was given a name, one horn was added in the middle.
However, the middle horn was lighter in color than the other two horns.
-That guy’s wings are burning too.
As the darkness said, Ignis’ cute wings were burning with red flame.
“Hmm…”
Baek Woo-jin gently placed his hand on Ignis’ wing.
It wasn’t hot at all, but it felt warm and a little itchy.
“Are you okay?”
“You guys try touching it too.”
Hong Ara and Moon Juyoung swallowed their saliva and placed their hands on Ignis’ wings.
“Crung.”
Perhaps because they both brought him snacks, Ignis remained calm.
“I feel really warm.”
“That’s right.”
Baek Woo-jin reassured Hong A-ra and then looked into the characteristics that Ignis possessed.
[Gourmet Flames]
The more delicious food you eat, the stronger the flame you can gather. As the flame becomes stronger, the body’s abilities also grow.
There were a few miscellaneous details below, but in the end, it meant that the more Ignis liked and enjoyed the food, the stronger his flame became.
-It really shows that if heaven wants to help, it will help in any way possible.
Darkness screamed as it looked up at the sky, which could not be seen because of the ceiling.
-Heaven does not help those who help themselves, but helps Baek Woo-jin! Dirty sky!
‘But…’
Baek Woo-jin smiled and looked at the darkness.
‘You helped me this time too.’
-When did I!
‘When I was thinking about the name of the Flame Dragon, you mentioned Ig Karton and Tarton, so I called him Ignis.’
Ignis means fire in Latin.
I hadn’t even thought about it, but I remembered it thanks to the darkness saying the word ig.
‘In the end, you were responsible for half of the credit for Ignis having that power and me getting the title.’
Baek Woo-jin laughed heartily as if making fun of darkness.
-Ah!
The darkness trembled with its blade like a person who had been foaming.
‘Black cow. No, darkness. Thank you every time!’
-Keueuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuc….
The darkness has moved behind them.

Shin Chang-hoon was lying in a strange hospital room with red-stained wallpaper.
Although he was covered with a blanket, I could see that the area where his arms should be was empty.
Sweet.
The door to the hospital room opened and a middle-aged man wearing an eye patch over his left eye came in.
“That sucks.”
He sat down in the chair next to the bed and chuckled.
“Oh Seong-hwan…”
The man with the eyepatch was Oh Seong-hwan, Zeno’s Jeokundaeju.
“Why did you come?”
“I came to see the dog that ran away with its tail down.”
Seonghwan Oh showed his teeth and smiled.
“I would have bitten my tongue and died for you to look like that after contacting me.”
Shin Chang-hoon gritted his teeth until he could make a sound.
Before attacking Yoon Woo-min, he told Oh Seong-hwan that he would kill Baek Woo-jin, but he ran away like this, so even if he had a mouth, he had nothing to say.
“So you have to know the topic. “The reason the Master gave you the position of Great Lord was not because of your skills.”
“Shut up before I kill you first!”
Shin Chang-hoon’s eyes showed a fierce murderous spirit, but Oh Seong-hwan just smiled.
“With that body?”
“Ugh….”
Since the hands were a very important part for a monk and a summoner, Shin Chang-hoon was no different from the end.
“It would be better not to worry about making a living. “Someone else will take your place as your ruler sooner or later.”
Oh Seong-hwan lifted his finger as if teasing Shin Chang-hoon.
“I will take your revenge. “That is the spirit of partnership.”
“I will kill Baek Woo-jin! I!”
“I still don’t understand the topic.”
Oh Seong-hwan clicked his tongue and left the hospital room.
There was a sneer at Shin Chang-hoon on his lips.
“Ouch…”
Red blood flowed from Shin Chang-hoon’s eyes as he was left alone.
“good night. If this happens, I’ll summon that guy. Even if I die…”
* * *
A loud cheer was heard from Chilgeomgak in the late afternoon.
“Arrange the sword belts!”
“Arrange the sword belts!”
At Baek Woo-jin’s order, 18 members of the Medical Swordsman held their swords and moved to a designated location.
“statement!”
“statement!”
The medical swordsmen split into nine directions and released their auras.
The energies created by the swordsmen gathered at the center of Jin, creating a sharp and strong force.
The training method that prosecutors are currently training is the Gugungwi Gyeongjin taught by Baek Cheon-woong.
Nine-Gung Wi-Gyeongjin is a formation with 7 attack and 3 defense, which is a great help when engaging in a melee with a large number of monsters.
“Hold on like that for 30 minutes.”
“yes!”
It was not easy to hold on for 30 minutes while balancing the Aurors with their colleagues, but the swordsmen gritted their teeth and screamed loudly.
-Right now it’s 30 minutes, but later it should be 3 hours.
‘3 hours?’
-Even if you can last an hour in practice, it will be difficult to last even 10 minutes when you start playing. You have to endure 3 hours of practice to be able to use it properly in real life.
‘There’s a long way to go…’
Baek Woo-jin sighed slightly and looked at the sweating prosecutors.
‘Hmm…’
Baek Woo-jin looked down from the prosecutors and saw a ring in the shape of a tiger’s face shining on the tip of his finger.
[Key to Jeokhoseong]
This is the only key to receive guidance from Jeokhoseong.
Grade: Unique.
Wearable conditions: None.
The ring that Baek Woo-jin picked up did not have any options, but it was said to be a key to enter a certain place.
However, since the key was unique, I thought that what could be obtained from a place called Jeokho Castle would be much more amazing.
-I didn’t say it because I wasn’t sure, but Jeokho Castle is something that exists in the world I lived in.
‘what?’
-However, no one actually went in and no one said they saw it. Taking your world as an example, ‘there is a sage world and within it there are immortals.’ It feels the same.
‘I know what it is. It’s a place that only comes from imagination.’
-right.
It seems that on the continent of darkness, a place called Jeokho Castle was a place that only appeared in stories.
-I also had no idea that Jeokhosung actually existed. I didn’t even know there was a key.
‘How do I use this key?’
-Do I understand?
Darkness shook its blade.
Because Jeokho Castle was also an imaginary space for him, he had little information about it.
– Talking about the rumors of Jeokho Castle, it was about the existence of a divine sword, the devil’s armor, and the messenger of God waiting.
‘It’s the same everywhere.’
Baek Woo-jin chuckled.
In any world, imaginary stories are similar.
‘But I guess I can go someday.’
Since this ring had called to me, I was confident that one day I would be able to go to that place called Jeokho Castle.
“Ugh…”
Baek Woo-jin raised his head at the sound of groaning coming from Jin’s right.
“Ara Hong. “It’s not even half over yet.”
“yes!”
Hong Ara’s level was lower than that of the prosecutors from Jegeomgak and her level of Auror was lower, so it was natural for her to be put down.
However, since she said she wanted to do the same training, there was no discrimination.
“Minhwan Kim!”
“I know!”
When Baek Woo-jin called the name of Kim Min-hwan, who was breaking his balance on the right, Jin regained his balance.
“stop.”
Even when Baek Woo-jin declared a halt 30 minutes later, the prosecutors did not hesitate.
Although he was sweating profusely, he held his sword and waited for Baek Woo-jin’s next command.
“That’s all for today.”
“Thank you for your effort!”
The prosecutors bowed to Baek Woo-jin and then all sat down on the ground.
After intense training with Baek Cheon-woong in the morning and then training for examination in the afternoon, all the prosecutors were exhausted.
“Go and rest.”
“yep!”
As the prosecutors got up one by one and went to take a shower, Park Hye-ri came in front of Baek Woo-jin.
“Can I ask you a swordsmanship question?”
Even though her face was covered in sweat, she was thinking about the next thing.
It appears that his statement that he would become the best prosecutor was not just bravado.
“say it.”
“I’ve been practicing horizontal cutting these days, but I feel like something is caught in the middle.”
“Oh, that.”
Baek Woo-jin also smiled because it was something he had experienced once.
“It means you have reached a certain level.”
“Gyeonggi?”
“It means feeling the flow of air that you haven’t felt before.”
“Ah…”
Park Hye-ri nodded as if she understood.
“If you swing while avoiding that feeling of sticking, your sword will become soft. If you overcome that feeling and swing, your sword will gain speed.”
“What did you choose, Master?”
“I was fast.”
“Then I will also choose fast. thank you.”
Hye-ri Park’s cheeks turned red as if she was excited and headed to the shower.
-That guy is growing up fast.
‘Isn’t he specially talented too?’
-Although he has outstanding talent among swordsmen, he cannot be said to be special.
‘Then is it the result of effort?’
Baek Woo-jin’s gaze returned to Kim Min-hwan, who was listening and writing something next to him.
“Do you have something to ask too?”
“Oh no!”
Minhwan Kim gave an inexplicable salute and ran to the shower room.
“It’s bland.”
All the prosecutors worked hard, but the ones who trained especially hard were Hong Nam-ki, Hong A-ra, Park Hye-ri, and Kim Min-hwan.
Thanks to their hard training and creating a good atmosphere, other prosecutors are also doing their best to train.
-Now you too, get ready.
‘That’s right.’
When Baek Woo-jin was about to start his training, his cell phone vibrated.
‘This is my first time seeing you…’
It was the first time I had seen the number, but I thought it might be someone I knew, so I answered the phone.
[Are you Prosecutor Baek Woo-jin?]
A deep, middle-aged man’s voice came from the phone speaker, but it was a complete stranger.
“That’s right.”
[I should have said hello to you sooner, but it was too late. It is said to be the secret name of Arcane.]
“Huh…?”
Baek Woo-jin swallowed dry saliva.
Seo Gong-myeong was Seo In-ah’s father and the master of the Arcane Guild, so she couldn’t help but be surprised that he called her directly.
“My name is Baek Woo-jin.”
Baek Woo-jin hid his surprise and answered calmly.
[I’m late in saying hello because I just came back here. Thank you for saving my daughter and the island twice.]
“No, I got help too.”
[I heard In-ah would answer that way, and it’s true.]
Seo Gong-myeong laughed as if he was amazed.
“What are you calling about?”
Arcane is not a guild for some reason.
There is no way Seo Gong-myeong, the guild master, would have called just to say thank you.
I thought there must be a reason.
[As expected…]
Seo Gong-myeong heard a small laugh coming from the speaker, and then he continued speaking.
[I would like to formally request a request from Baek Woo-jin of Shingeombaekga in Arcane.]
