I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy

Episode 187 Forward

“Demon Mana Stone? How could that…”

Carden’s jaw opened like a hippopotamus. I couldn’t believe that Baek Woo-jin had found the power source of the dolls that even he couldn’t properly understand.

“I just felt it.”

“You just felt it?”

“It’s no big deal.”

Baek Woo-jin shrugged his shoulders. Thanks to my heightened senses, I knew from the beginning where mana came from and where it flowed.

“Wow, really…”

Carden couldn’t take his eyes off Baek Woo-jin, as if he couldn’t understand.

“But the mana stone is a bit special.”

“It’s a Harmon Mana Stone.”

Carden saw the mana stone in Baek Woo-jin’s hand and a flame appeared in his eyes.

“Hamon Mana Stone?”

“It is a highly efficient mana stone made by crafting and harmonizing the highest quality mana stones. Even on our continent, we can only create one race.”

“Just one race? No way….”

A dexterous race from a fantasy world came to mind in Baek Woo-jin’s mind.

“We are a race called dwarves. Humans have dexterity that cannot be imitated. “Only they can create Harmon Mana Stones.”

“Dwarfran…”

“The Harmon Mana Stone can absorb and release mana directly without any other means. “Even if there are a mountain of gold coins, they are so rare that they cannot be found.”

Carden quenched his appetite while looking at the Hamon Mana Stone.

-Anyway, if it’s beneficial to him, he’ll definitely take it. He seems like a toxic guy.

‘Of course I have to take care of it.’

I didn’t know if this training center would still remain, but if the training center disappeared, it was natural to take the mana stones.

Grumbling.

The incontinence that had formed in the mana stone began to grow larger. It looked dangerous, as if it would break at any moment.

‘I need to absorb it before it all disappears.’

Baek Woo-jin used aurors to receive the mana inside the mana stone into his body.

Ugh!

Pure mana flowed into my body like a tide. Cain’s Auror practice was used to the extreme and all of the mana was channeled into the body.

The mana traveled through Baek Woo-jin’s entire body as led by the Auror of Rasadum and were then absorbed into his Danjeon.

-The amount is considerable.

‘If you practice properly, your abilities will increase.’

It seemed that if I went back to the practice room and practiced, the quantity and quality of my Aurors would increase. It was mana that was much more nutritious than most elixirs.

-It’s not even crab sauce, but it sucks every inch of it.

‘haha!’

Baek Woo-jin just laughed at the grunting of darkness. Since I created a step method and collected the mana from the mana stone, I was able to accept that level of complaining in a good mood.

puck! puck!

Baek Woo-jin turned around at the sound of digging. Before I knew it, Muyounggueng appeared and was digging the ground with a shovel.

“It smells! “It stinks!”

Muyounggaek frantically dug around the ground with twin lights in his eyes. He was shoveling until steam came out of his mouth.

“You really don’t get tired of it…”

– In a way, he is a greater person than you….

* * *

“Whoa…”

Baek Woo-jin finished his Auror training and opened his eyes in good spirits.

Ding!

[Mana ability has increased.]

When I saw the message that appeared in front of me, I naturally smiled.

As expected, I was able to increase my abilities by absorbing the mana from the Harmon Mana Stone.

-Tsk, one thing that is really lucky is….

“Yes. “I am the best.”

Baek Woo-jin stood up, laughing off Dark’s blunt words.

“Looks like it’s over over there too.”

I could feel the medical sword table moving in the training hall. They will be giving training feedback after breaking through the 7th floor of Lion’s Castle over the course of three days.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

When Baek Woo-jin opened the door and went out, Moon Ju-young, who was waiting, bowed her head.

“You worked hard too.”

“no. “It’s my job.”

“Now gather the children of the sword squad.”

“That’s what you’re talking about.”

“okay.”

“All right.”

Moon Joo-young nodded and gathered everyone from the medical school in front of the podium, and Baek Woo-jin went up to the podium where everyone was watching.

“I’m sorry for asking you to wait when you must be tired.”

“no!”

“You’re full of strength? “You can start training again from now on.”

“Oh, that’s a bit…”

Kim Woo-hyuk scratched his cheek and smiled awkwardly. I was on the verge of collapsing from exhaustion after training for three days. I wanted to go back and sleep right away.

“It’s a joke. “Congratulations on breaking through the 7th floor of the Lion’s Castle.”

Baek Woo-jin smiled with satisfaction as he looked at the prosecutors one by one. They applauded with pride as they made it through the 7th floor without any major injuries.

“It was several months faster than I expected. great job.”

“thank you!”

The prosecutors clenched their fists with proud expressions at Baek Woo-jin’s sincere praise.

“Now I have the ability to do my part wherever I go.”

“It’s all thanks to you, Master.”

“you’re right!”

Other prosecutors immediately jumped on Kim Woo-hyuk’s flattering remarks. After achieving my goal and hearing Baek Woo-jin’s praise, I felt a surge of elation.

“I’m leaving for the front lines soon.”

“yes?”

“uh…?”

“That front line?”

The fiery atmosphere suddenly subsided as if cold water had been sprinkled on it. All of the prosecutors looked at Baek Woo-jin with stunned expressions at the unexpected and sudden words.

“I told you in advance. Of course, to the Vice Lord as well.”

Baek Woo-jin gave his gaze to Baek Cheon-woong, who was watching quietly from behind.

“Why are you going to the front all of a sudden?”

“It’s to make up for my shortcomings. “When I watched the battle between my father and Daeyeonmunju, I realized that I was still just a puppy.”

“Ah…”

Hong Nam-gi blushed and lowered his head.

‘Oh my…’

He was satisfied with the small achievement of being on the 7th floor of the Lion’s Castle and did not even give training feedback properly, but Baek Woo-jin was looking up, not satisfied even though he was in a much higher position than himself.

I was so embarrassed that I couldn’t raise my head.

“The second reason is that, as you all know, the battles on the front lines are becoming more intense and casualties are increasing. “The country also wants to go to help.”

“Hmm…”

Park Hye-ri bit her lip until it bled.

I was so busy keeping up with the training that I couldn’t even think about the outside world, but Baek Woo-jin, who was even busier than me, was paying attention to the casualties on the front line. He was a person who was truly impossible to follow.

“So I’d like to give you a choice.”

“If you have a choice….”

“Go to the front lines with me or stay here. “You choose for yourself.”

With Baek Woo-jin’s words, Moon Ju-young handed over the documents to the prosecutors.

“We don’t force people to go if they don’t want to go. “Even if you don’t follow me, you will be able to continue training here and receive missions, so don’t worry and choose the direction you want.”

The prosecutors at the medical school were looking at Baek Woo-jin without saying anything.

“Anyone who wants to go to the front with me should fill out the participation form four days later and bring it personally.”

“I’m going!”

As soon as Baek Woo-jin finished speaking, a white hand came up from behind. Hong A-ra jumped like a rabbit and raised her hands.

“Think properly and decide.”

“I thought right! “I will definitely go!”

Hong A-ra was the first to raise her hand in a sonorous voice. This was surprising considering her usual personality.

“Tsk, we lost a player.”

“That’s right. “I never thought the youngest would be the first to step forward.”

“If I go there, I can become as strong as you, right?

“We are going too. must!”

Hong Nam-gi, Kim Woo-hyuk, and Park Hye-ri raised their hands at the same time. The remaining prosecutors also raised their hands without paying attention.

“Once you go to the front, you can’t easily come back. “It’s not a simple decision like this.”

Baek Woo-jin’s voice was as low as the dark evening sky.

“You will live and fight in a completely different way than when you were in the huge enclosure called Shingeombaekga. As I said, 4 days later. “Get some rest, think properly, and then come back.”

Baek Woo-jin came down from the podium after saying those words.

The prosecutors looked at Baek Woo-jin as if he were a statue. Their eyes twinkled like stars illuminating the dark sky.

-The answer is obvious, so what are you waiting for?

Darkness looked at the swordsmen’s eyes and sharpened the blade of the sword.

‘You never know.’

-Perhaps something. Look at their facial expressions. The expression on his face is like that of a child with snacks in front of him. Not a single one will fall out, right?

* * *

After Baek Woo-jin gave the prosecutors a vacation, he went to visit the defeated family. Because I had contacted them in advance, Jeok Yeon-hwa was waiting at the front gate with rabbit eyes.

“Am I really here?”

“You have to keep your word.”

“Did you say you were thanking your father?”

“okay.”

Baek Woo-jin nodded lightly. Although I thanked him over the phone, I came to Jeokga because I thought it would be polite to visit him in person.

“But your house is no joke. “It’s very spacious.”

“Your house is not that easy either.”

“I just flattered you once.”

“Ha…”

Jeok Yeon-hwa burst out laughing as if it was absurd. I shook my head and opened the front door.

“You really haven’t changed. Come on in.”

“That’s not right. “It’s impossible not to change.”

Baek Woo-jin entered the open door with a strange smile.

“Uh…”

Jeok Yeon-hwa looked at Baek Woo-jin with a blank expression. I felt an unknown empty energy in his voice.

“Why are you losing your mind? “Go alone?”

“Oh, my father is waiting over there.”

Jeok Yeon-hwa shook her head to come to her senses and pointed to the green garden on the left.

“In the garden?”

“They say the room is boring and they want to show it off.”

“Are you raising it yourself?”

“You didn’t do it alone, but you took care of it a lot.”

“You are like the Lord of the Red House.”

Baek Woo-jin laughed and headed to the garden with Jeok Yeon-hwa. The tall, sturdy trees and vibrant flowers and bushes seemed to indicate the momentum of the enemy.

“I meet the Lord of the Red House.”

Baek Woo-jin bowed his head to the red family tree, who was looking at the tree while wearing a straw hat.

If you hadn’t seen him before, you would have thought he was a tall gardener, so much so that he was assimilated into the garden.

“You could have just said it over the phone. “What did you come here to do?”

The head of the red family took off his straw hat and smiled.

“I thought it would be polite to meet you in person and say thank you.”

“Hmm….”

As Baek Woo-jin looked up and down, the red family member’s eyes lit up.

“Have you grown again in the meantime? “Are you really a monster?”

“Growing up?”

“okay. “That guy has become stronger than when I saw him at the main gate.”

“Huh…”

Jeok Yeon-hwa’s eyes relaxed at Jeok Ga-ju’s words. I couldn’t believe that he had grown again after showing such insane force at Daeyeonmun.

“I was wondering if you took some elixir, but that’s not all. I have also grown technically. “What are you really doing?”

The red family grinned while looking at Baek Woo-jin’s legs. As a deacon who values footwork, he was aware of the growth of Baek Woo-jin’s footwork.

“I was lucky.”

“If that’s luck, you’d be the luckiest guy in the world.”

-That’s right. Luck is amazing.

The darkness nodded its blade fiercely as if agreeing with Jeokgaju’s words.

“I came this far, but I don’t need any thanks from you. “Even if I wasn’t there, Baek Cheon-hwa would have come and saved you.”

“Even so, thank you for coming.”

“That’s fascinating.”

Jeok Ga-ju looked at Baek Woo-jin’s clear eyes and tilted his head.

“I can’t believe that someone like you came from Baek Chun-hwa.”

“I’ve heard that often.”

“Hahaha!”

Jeokgaju seemed to be having fun and burst into laughter as loud as his own size.

“I really wanted to say thank you. “There’s no need to be thanked for something you didn’t do.”

“But I got help.”

“The stubbornness is the same.”

Jeok Ga-ju looked at Baek Woo-jin with happy eyes and then sat down, leaning his back against the tree.

“It seems like there will be a lot of disruption to you. What do you plan to do from now on?”

“I’m trying to get to the front lines.”

“Ahead?”

“uh?”

Jeok Yeon-hwa, who was behind Baek Woo-jin, was startled and visibly trembled. Her eyes were shaking rapidly.

“I plan to fill my shortcomings on the front lines and lay a foundation to become stronger.”

“If you go to the front lines to become stronger, you are not crazy either.”

“I hear that a lot.”

“There will be very little information about the front lines. Shall I give you some information?”

“I want to grow by experiencing it myself. “That’s why I’m going there.”

“Hahaha! “It’s a masterpiece!”

The head of the red family let out a cheerful laugh and patted his thigh. He looked at Baek Woo-jin with satisfied eyes.

“Anyway, there’s no need to say thank you. I was just trying to repay the debt of my daughter and subordinates who received help from you. “That kid said he really needed to help you.”

“thanks. “Thanks to you, I survived.”

Baek Woo-jin turned around and slightly bowed his head to Jeok Yeon-hwa to show respect.

“Oh, what am I…”

Jeok Yeon-hwa shook her head, not knowing what to do after receiving the sudden thank you.

“Rain debt! “Consider your debt paid.”

“Oh, I see. Then, I will erase the one wish right you have.”

“Right to wish? “Did you still remember that?”

“of course. But you know there’s still one left, right? “I don’t know what I’m going to order, so be prepared.”

Baek Woo-jin smiled while waving his index finger.

“You really…”

“What do you mean now?”

Jeokgaju suddenly stood up. Although he was still smiling, a violent energy emanated from his body.

“yes?”

“What do you mean by right to wish?”

Jeok Ga-ju’s voice turned cold, like the gatekeeper of the underworld. It was enough to send a chill down my spine.

“dad?”

“Why all of a sudden…”

-He said it smells similar to you.

‘what? How similar are they?’

Heukam looked at Jeok Ga-ju and Baek Woo-jin alternately and laughed.

-That nobleman is a poor man and his daughter is an idiot. Are you going to die if you don’t explain it properly?

‘….’

* * *

“I’ll go.”

As soon as Hye-ri Park entered the training room, she handed out the participation form to Woo-jin Baek. With this, all 18 students from the medical school submitted their participation forms.

“I told you before, right? I don’t want to be the best among talented women, I just want to be the best. To do that, you have to stick with the person who will be the best in the future.”

“I’m going to be the best?”

“Sure.”

It’s not flattery. Hyeri Park nodded, her eyes shining with confidence.

“Well, if you sleep and go to the front line, no matter how bad you are, you won’t be able to come back for a year.”

“It doesn’t matter.”

“You could die.”

“For a prosecutor, dying while fighting is an honor.”

“Ha, I understand. “Please prepare in advance.”

Baek Woo-jin sighed. Everyone was the same. Every single one of them said that they wanted to go together even if they died.

“thank you!”

Hye-ri Park smiled sweetly and went out. It was a step without the slightest hesitation.

-it serves him right. I said it was useless, right?

“I see.”

Baek Woo-jin smiled as he collected 18 participation forms. Seeing people follow me this far gave me a sense of pride and responsibility at the same time.

“I thought at least one person would decide to stay, but I never thought they would all follow you. “Are you a little sad?”

Baek Cheon-woong came into the practice room laughing. Contrary to his words, his face did not show the slightest regret.

“The Lord of Buga told us all to go as if he was kicking them out.”

“uh? “When did you hear that again?”

“I really…”

Baek Woo-jin laughed out loud as he saw Bugaju with a sly smile on his face.

“Wouldn’t you be bored if no one was around?”

“Okay. “It’s been a while since I have some free time, so I think I’ll go on a trip.”

“Where are you going?”

“I have a friend in Jeju Island. “I’m going to have black pork and soju with that friend after a long time.”

Baek Cheon-woong was already tasting his food as if he was looking forward to it.

Perhaps because he spent time with Baek Woo-jin, he seemed brighter than before.

“That’s nice. “I’m also attracted to it.”

“If you come back healthy, I will buy you as much as you want.”

“All right. “I will bring everyone, not just me, in good health.”

Baek Woo-jin opened his mouth with confidence and responsibility. Seeing that, a satisfied smile appeared on Baek Cheonwoong’s lips.

“The front line is a dangerous place, but I’m sure you will be able to adapt without difficulty.”

“The Lord Bug has also visited.”

“Of course. Unlike now, people my age have been to the front lines several times. Of course, your father too.”

Baek Cheon-woong’s eyes became slightly transparent as if he was thinking about the past.

“And yet you haven’t been able to conquer it?”

“Unlike here, this is a place where endless monsters pour out of the dungeon and the sky. Besides…”

Baek Cheon-woong shook his head without speaking.

“no. “You’d better see it with your own eyes.”

“Is it too much to interrupt while talking?”

“Hehe, I got a little grumpy because you took all the kids.”

“I guess I’ll have to go in person after all.”

“young master.”

When Baek Woo-jin got up and took the participation form, Moon Ju-young came inside.

“The head of the family has called you.”

“Anyway, he’s good at timing.”

Right now, there was only one thing Baek Chun-hwa had to do to call him. The date and guide to go to the front have been decided.

“let’s go.”

* * *

-You said your father would set the date. Aren’t you telling me to go after a year?

‘If you place a bet, it won’t come out so bad.

Baek Woo-jin, who was heading to Gajujeon, shook his head. If your father says he will send it, he is the one who will send it. I don’t do anything that dirty.

‘But you shouldn’t easily look at the bet you made.’

-Getting that block back?

‘okay. My father now accurately understands my powerlessness. Still, it’s not normal to place a bet.’

-But no matter how strong your father was, he would not have been stronger than you are now when he was 22.

‘Times have changed, so maybe things have changed from the current front… huh?’

Baek Woo-jin made eye contact with the person standing in front of Gajujeon and his eyes widened.

“Why are you here…”
