I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy

Episode 196. The Sword that Splits Dimensions (4)

“Welcome!”

Hwang Byeong-hoon greeted Baek Woo-jin with a bright smile. His tired, tired face had noticeably brightened.

“Thank you so much!”

“Commander, you worked hard too.”

Baek Woo-jin bowed his head politely.

“hardship? I? No! no!”

Hwang Byeong-hun helped Baek Woo-jin up and shook his head.

“Compared to you, I have done nothing. Look over there!”

Byeonghun Hwang raised his hand and pointed out the window. Seven blocks bathed in sunlight were visible through the gray and black fog.

“Light has returned to the 7 blocks that were lost a long time ago! The land that had been consumed by darkness has been revived! “This is something no one has ever done!”

“As I said before, after the Black Tree rose, we were defeated every day. “We couldn’t eliminate the dark zone or the gray zone, so even if we won the battle, it wasn’t victory.”

Baek Yeon-hwi, who was standing next to Hwang Byeong-hun, took a step forward. His eyes were sparkling like a traveler visiting an oasis.

“To be honest, there was no answer. Everyone didn’t say anything, but they were getting more and more tired. Even the fools who ran with only one vision in mind gave up half the time. but!”

Hwang Byeong-hun clenched his marble-like fists. He must have been excited, so his big fists were shaking.

“You did it! What you’ve accomplished this time isn’t just capturing the dark elf and erasing the dark zone! “It’s no different from reviving the dying embers of hope in everyone’s hearts!”

“When the dark zone disappeared and the sun set, everyone’s eyes held a hope as hot as the sun. “You did it.”

Baek Yeon-hwi’s face was red with excitement. Hwang Byeong-hun’s lips were even trembling.

“It’s a little burdensome for you to say that.”

-that’s right. I did it all! Why are you the only one letting me fly? Hey grandpa. I did it all! This darkness did it!

The darkness flew up in front of Hwang Byeong-Hoon and grunted.

-Dimensional interference is my trait! You bastards!

Darkness suddenly developed a love for the characteristic dimensional interference, which he hated so much, and shouted that it was his ability.

“No, it’s not enough! “What you have done is unprecedented.”

“No one with any ability has been able to interfere with the dimension. “No, there was one, but there was no one who could demonstrate abilities like yours.”

Baek Yeon-hwi and Hwang Byeong-hoon seemed to be disappointed that they could not praise them more.

“Then can you explain to me what happened? “I heard it, but I don’t know the details.”

“of course. When the dark elf named Tulan disappeared…”

Baek Woo-jin told me everything that happened in Tulan’s dimension and the Dark Zone. Of course, he said that dimensional interference is not darkness, but his ability.

“After capturing Tulan, instead of running away, you were thinking of cutting down the roots of the Black Tree?”

“That’s right.”

“Huh, what kind of man’s ability to act…”

Hwang Byeong-hun took a vain breath. An ordinary person would have thought about running away the moment they entered the dark zone. The thought of cutting down the roots of the black tree there was shocking.

“hmm!”

Baek Yeon-hwi drew a small smile on the corner of her mouth. Byung-Hoon Hwang seemed proud of praising Baek Woo-Jin.

“What is the limit to your dimension-cutting power?”

“I can’t use it continuously, but I think I can use it up to three times a day.”

“No. 3…”

Hwang Byeong-hun was lost in thought while stroking his beard.

-Oh, it’s my ability! I should be praised!

‘I can’t bring up your story.’

-Ugh, that’s true, but…

‘Instead, I’ll show you all the dramas that were delayed later.’

-Really? What about boys?

‘Jungcheongeum.’

-Then I guess I should make a schedule from now on. First of all, the Wednesday drama…

I guess I liked Baek Woo-jin’s answer, so Dark’s irritation disappeared in an instant. I was already starting to calculate what drama to watch.

“I can’t just say it’s a small amount.”

“Because the power to interfere with dimensions is special.”

Baek Yeon-hwi nodded. It made no sense to use the power to interfere with the opponent’s dimension without restrictions.

“First, I have to ask for outside support. “I guess we can finally win a fight in our favor.”

“So, I have an idea.”

“thought?”

“I haven’t been discovered by the dark elves yet. In other words, they don’t know who killed Tulan and cut down the roots of the Black Tree.”

Baek Woo-jin nodded and continued speaking.

“Elite dark elves are highly intelligent. Therefore, you will not be able to move carelessly. “You would think that someone might appear at some point and place to cut down the roots of the black tree.”

“That’s right. So what should I do?”

“We just need to spread our personnel out and attack like we did today. The dark elves will have no choice but to defend. However, since they do not know my identity, I have no choice but to divide the number of people broadly.”

“Oh then!”

“yes. “I wait in the back, and when a battle breaks out, I jump into the place with the fewest number of enemies, kill the elite dark elves, and remove the roots of the black tree.”

Hwang Byeong-hun, who realized what Baek Woo-jin meant, clapped his hands and Baek Yeon-hwi’s eyes lit up.

“They’re using the same method they used against us this time!”

“That’s right. Since they don’t know which of us has the power to interfere with the dimension, this gives us an advantage over them in strategy. Even if you can’t do it, you can probably use it at least once.”

“Hahaha! yes! “I can use it like that!”

Hwang Byeong-hoon let out a cool, carbonated laugh and tapped Baek Woo-jin on the shoulder.

“It’s such a blessing to have such good hair! Your brother is real. Yeonhwi!”

“I think so too.”

Hwang Byeong-hoon could not hold back his joy and hugged Baek Woo-jin tightly. Baek Yeon-hwi hummed and lightly tapped Baek Woo-jin on the shoulder.

“Thank you so much. thank you.”

“Commander Four!”

Hwang Byeong-hoon held Baek Woo-jin’s hand and bowed his head. Baek Woo-jin was surprised and lowered his head.

“This is not a greeting from Commander Hwang Byeong-hun, but from the human Hwang Byeong-hun. “Thanks to you, I have hope that I might be able to finish this place before I die.”

“no.”

Baek Woo-jin shook his head. Hwang Byeong-hun is a person who devoted half his life to this battlefield. I felt proud and burdened to receive such a greeting from such a respected person.

“I’ll be able to get a good night’s sleep today for the first time in a long time. “Isn’t that right?”

“I think I can have good dreams too.”

Hwang Byeong-hun and Baek Yeon-hwi looked at each other and smiled.

“You must be tired, but I guess I held on too much. Stop and go back. “You really had a hard time.”

“see you tommorow.”

Baek Woo-jin bowed his head to Hwang Byeong-hun and left the commander’s office.

-How many episodes of the drama will you let me watch?

‘About three?’

-Well, it’s a bit small? Try one more.

‘That’s enough…huh?’

As soon as Baek Woo-jin left the commander’s building, he stopped dead in his tracks.

This was because hundreds of talented people were lined up looking at him.

It seemed like most talented people from all blocks, not just the center block, had gathered.

Cheok!

No words were needed.

The able-bodied raised their right hand and tapped their left chest twice.

Their eyes were crying out in gratitude.

I was saying thank you for lighting a new torch of hope in this hell.

A shiver ran down my spine at the sight of truly talented people who believed in their ideals and risked their lives fighting, paying their respects.

“There’s no need to tell me again.”

Baek Yeon-hwi came forward. Just like everyone else, I raised my fist and tapped my left chest twice.

“of course.”

Baek Woo-jin nodded, clenched his right hand into a fist, and tapped his left chest, which contained his heart.

Baek Woo-jin, Baek Yeon-hwi and all the talented people smiled with the same heart.

Ding!

[The reward for the quest < Forgotten Victory > will be paid.]

[2000 reward points will be paid.]

A quest completion message appeared in front of Baek Woo-jin.

-Wow, that’s an appropriate compensation. What are you talking about?

‘That remark.’

-That’s useless. Tsk tsk.

‘What are you misunderstanding?’

-what?

‘The calculation isn’t finished yet.’

When Baek Woo-jin moved his finger, a new message appeared.

[Your performance has ignited a spark of hope in the hearts of many people.]

[3000 points will be awarded.]

-Another time difference? No wait! Four or three thousand?

The voice of darkness trembled like an aspen tree.

-Three thousand? 5,000 points at once? Is this really crazy!

This was the first time something like this was given as a bonus, a number greater than the original reward. All I could think was that there was a puncture in the head of the system.

‘It’s darkness after all.’

-what!

‘Thanks to you for saying that, I would have given you an extra 1000 points. thanks. ‘Your mouth is my treasure.’

-Queuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

us also trembled like a vibrating mobile phone.

– Catch me right now.

‘what?’

-Dimensional interference is going to cut down every part of the system! Grab it quickly!

* * *

Baek Yeon-hwi and Baek Woo-jin sat silently on chairs in the corner of the training hall.

“Hyung…”

Baek Woo-jin crumpled the paper cup he had finished drinking and turned his head to Baek Yeon-hwi.

“Why did you stay here?”

“what?”

“Why is the eldest son of the Shingeombaek family and a man who was called a genius, staying here and suffering?”

It was a curiosity I had had since my past life. I couldn’t understand why he, who had everything, wasn’t moving from here.

“Because I met someone I wanted to be like.”

“Commander?”

“okay. “It is him.”

Baek Yeon-hwi smiled and nodded.

“I was educated directly by my father. “Thanks to this, ever since I was young, I thought of everyone as a stepping stone for me to step on.”

“Hmm…”

“That attitude got worse and worse, and when it reached its peak, I came here on a mission. Even though I was young, I was more arrogant and arrogant than anyone else. “At that time, I even ignored the commander’s words.”

“I can kind of imagine it.”

Even if I hadn’t seen it, I could imagine what it must have been like to have been taught directly by my father.

“Because of that arrogance, my team and I were in danger of death. That’s when he came forward. “Even though he suffered great wounds while saving my life, he commanded and fought until the end without showing any signs of it.”

At that time, Baek Yeon-hwi’s memory seemed to have come back, and shame and regret appeared on Baek Yeon-hwi’s face.

“After the battle was over, I went to see him and asked. Why did you save me even though I was seriously hurt? Why did you save the life of this arrogant guy who didn’t listen to anything? Then he said so.”

Baek Yeon-hwi looked up at the night sky and continued.

“That’s his ideal. “He said he didn’t want to see a young, talented person die before him.”

Although it was Baek Yeon-hwi’s voice, it felt as vivid as Hwang Byeong-hoon speaking.

“I was very shocked to hear that it was not because he wanted to owe me a debt or because I was from a white family, but because he just wanted to save the life of someone younger than him. So, instead of going back to my family, I followed after him.”

“You were chasing me?”

“okay. After following him for a year, I knew for sure. That that person is real. “A person who could receive the best treatment anywhere in the world fought and jumped into the middle of enemy lines to save a low-level talent.”

“He’s the same person I heard about.”

“okay. If the commander had fought only for himself, he would have suffered almost no injuries. All his wounds were to save others. “That person is back.”

Baek Yeon-hwi chuckled, muttering that he should return to Hwang Byeong-hun. It was a smile that seemed more comfortable than ever.

“It changed me from then on. I put aside my arrogance and forgot the education I received from my father. However, I did not follow the commander. I just tried to be myself. “The result was what remained here.”

Baek Yeon-hwi scratched the hair below her ears as if she were embarrassed.

“I see.”

Now I know why Baek Yeon-Hwi stayed here and what he was thinking. There was a reason why the person who was supposed to get along best with the Baek family did not get along the best.

“Are you trying to become the head of the Baek family?”

“huh? me?”

“You’re not going to run away after just hearing my story, are you?”

“I tried to run away.”

“That won’t work.”

“Ha, then, just keep it simple…”

Baek Woo-jin smiled and began to tell his story briefly.

“Huh…”

Baek Yeon-hwi laughed. At a young age, I admired my younger brother’s ideals of looking beyond power and fame. The youngest brother was a much more mature and courageous child than himself.

“So, it was successful.”

“success?”

“It’s a bet with my father.”

“Oh, that’s right.”

Baek Woo-jin nodded and smiled slyly.

“I have to tell you this good news right away.”

* * *

“Matriarch.”

Kim Jae-hwan came up to Baek Cheon-hwa and knelt down.

“I received a call from the youngest master.”

“Bring it.”

“yes.”

Kim Jae-hwan lowered his head and held out the communication device to Baek Cheon-hwa.

‘I thought you would have contacted me by now.’

Baek Tian-hwa smiled coldly. By now, you know the existence of the Dark Zone and realize that betting against yourself is impossible. I was expecting to hear from you around this time.

‘It might be difficult.’

After living in the warm sunlight and cool breeze, you will want to come back to find yourself in a frustrating and barren frontline surrounded by fog that you cannot see an inch ahead of you.

[Matriarch.]

As soon as I put the phone to my ear, I heard Baek Woo-jin’s low voice.

[I have something to tell you.]

Baek Chun-hwa’s smile deepened. When I heard Baek Woo-jin’s low voice, I had an idea of what he was going to say.

[Don’t you have a bet with me?]

“It’s been less than a month and you’re not asking me to cancel the bet or want to come back here, right?”

[….]

“Didn’t I tell you? That place doesn’t suit you. good night. If you come back now, it’ll be a little…”

[That’s not it.]

“What?”

[The bet is mine.]

“What do you mean?”

Baek Woo-jin’s voice went up a tone, and Baek Cheon-hwa’s voice sank heavily.

[It is called the dark zone here. I killed an elite dark elf and purified an area of the dark zone.]

“Bullshit!”

Baek Cheon-hwa let out a roar. I couldn’t even imagine purifying the Dark Zone. It was nonsense.

[It’s not bullshit. There’s no way I could lie, right? You can check it yourself.]

“You….”

[I won the bet, so I will do as I wish, as promised. Thank you so much for suggesting an easy bet. Father.]

Baek Woo-jin’s voice was filled with more joy than ever. It was a voice that relieved 10 years of congestion.

“….”

Baek Tian-hwa looked at the communicator with disbelieving eyes. Even when fighting with Daeyeonmunju, his calm eyes shook as if there was an earthquake.

“Find out what happened up front. Now!”

“Oh yeah!”

Kim Jae-hwan nodded with a puzzled expression and immediately went outside.

Pudddeuk!

In the Gaju battle, all that remained was the empty sound of the communicator being ground to dust.
