I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy

Episode 69 Assassination Mission (2)

“Do you know who the assassination target, Lee In-seong, is?”

“He is a level 7 wizard from Lucas and is currently the guild master of the Bains Guild.”

“How do you know?”

Baek Cheon-hwa tilted his head as if he was surprised.

“I thought there might be a battle between the White House and Lucas at any moment, so I researched guilds that could help Lucas.”

“A lion does his best when catching a rabbit. “It’s a great mindset.”

Baek Cheon-hwa seemed to like Baek Woo-jin’s words and smiled broadly.

‘This guy is different.’

Baek Cheon-hwa looked down at Baek Woo-jin with an expression of interest.

While everyone was busy accumulating achievements, Baek Woo-jin was thinking about his family.

It would be strange if it didn’t look good.

-You’ve never investigated anything like that.

‘that’s right. ‘It’s just something I said.’

-Then how did you know that name?

‘Lee In-seong becomes very famous a few years later.’

-Becoming famous?

‘okay. Black magic. That’s because he is a person who has mastered necromancy.’

There are different types of black magic.

Wizards called necromancers use bodies that have already died, but necromancers are terrible bastards who make contracts with spirits and offer the souls of living people to the spirits.

-Necromancer! Were those people who would tear and kill us here too?

‘okay. Lee In-seong may not be at that high a level yet.’

After revealing his true identity about six years later, Lee In-seong massacres many people and disappears.

‘If we catch him now, we can save a lot of sacrifices.’

By now, there would be fewer victims and Lee In-seong’s level of necromancy would be low. It was the perfect situation to handle.

“Then do you know why I’m asking you to kill me?”

“I do not know.”

“And yet you accepted the mission?”

“As far as the mission is concerned, it is just the sword of the former Divine Sword Hundred Families. “Thoughts don’t matter to the sword.”

“Huh…”

An exclamation came from Baek Cheon-hwa’s mouth.

When I was first sent on an assassination mission, there were many people who accepted it without hesitation, but this was the first time I heard someone who responded like Baek Woo-jin.

The more I look at him, the more I admire him.

-You’re putting on a show.

‘okay. This is a show. A show with audience Baek Cheon-hwa and actor Baek Woo-jin.’

As Heukam said, this was a performance to be shown to Baek Cheon-hwa.

“good night. “To complete the mission while maintaining that spirit.”

“I won’t disappoint you.”

“Go and see.”

“yes.”

Baek Woo-jin bowed and then left for the family battle.

“Hmm…”

Baek Cheon-hwa rested her chin as she looked at the door of Gajujeon where Baek Woo-jin left.

“It’s a shame. “If only I were a little older.”

It is true that Baek Woo-jin’s talent grows every time I see him, but his disadvantage is that he is too young compared to the four people above.

“It wouldn’t be a bad idea to send him there.”

**

Baek Woo-jin headed to his room in Baekwijeon.

-How are you going to catch it? Isn’t it rare for a guild master to be alone? Plus, you have to hide your identity.

“That’s why we need information.”

-If it’s information, is it her?

“that’s right.”

Baek Woo-jin opened the drawer and took out a flip phone.

“This is my first time using it.”

When I turned on my phone and pressed 1, dozens of numbers appeared on the screen and a signal started beeping.

Pop.

[You finally called.]

I heard Eugene’s voice on the phone.

It felt a little stickier than usual.

[I’ve been waiting so desperately, but now…]

“If you talk nonsense, I’ll hang up.”

[Hehe, I’m kidding.]

This old flip phone is the one that Yoo Jin-ah gave to Baek Woo-jin.

It is said that it is equipped with a device that prevents anyone from eavesdropping.

“Did you get a lot of money?”

[I heard a lot. Thanks to good customers, our branch is finally coming back to life. I’m also planning to remodel the cafe.]

Yujinah answered in a cheerful voice.

“That can’t be possible.”

Using an old cafe as a branch is Eugene’s preference. There was no way I could change it.

[You know me very well.]

“I have a question.”

[Say]

“If I request someone’s information, does that information also go to the top of the black market?”

[Of course. The information is not sold, but who purchased the information is stored on the black market.]

“Um….”

[I will handle the prosecutor’s information myself, so you don’t have to worry. No one can know except me and my limbs.]

Yoo Jin-ah’s voice, full of confidence, came from the flip phone.

-That woman is smart and has excellent execution skills, so it definitely helps.

‘okay.’

Since the auction house, I had developed a stronger trust with Yoo Jin-ah, so I trusted her words.

“thank you.”

[What can I do with this much? Since you asked such a question, I guess you have something to ask of me, right?]

“Yes. Master of Bains. “I need Lee In-seong’s information.”

[It’s Lee In-seong…]

The sound of paper rustling was heard as if Yoo Jin-ah was searching for something.

[There is basic information, but the information is spread out, so I think it needs to be reinvestigated and organized.]

“I understand.”

[May I know why you are looking for information? If you know the reason, you can get more information in the direction you need.]

“It’s an assassination.”

I thought about it for a while, but since I was going to find out anyway, I decided to be honest.

[All right. I will contact you again.]

There was no change in Yujinah’s voice.

It seemed like I had expected it to some extent.

“yes. “Please do me a favor.”

After hanging up the phone, I put it in my pocket.

“I can trust this side, so I just need to prepare myself.”

-preparation?

“I have to practice the sleep dragon spirit I learned from you. “It will definitely be helpful in this mission.”

**

Baek Woo-jin was running around the training ground.

Although his movements were as fast as sprinting, no sound was heard at all and his presence was as faint as fog.

“Tweet.”

Baek Woo-jin stopped and approached the sparrow on the tree branch.

Even though he was right next to him, the sparrow was rubbing his head against his wing without noticing Baek Woo-jin’s presence.

“Tweet?”

When Baek Woo-jin stroked its head, the sparrow was startled and flew upward.

“This is enough.”

-okay. The basics have been mastered perfectly. great job.

“It’s been a long time since I received a compliment.”

Baek Woo-jin smiled and released the Sleep Dragon Spirit.

Ding!

[You have acquired the Sleeping Dragon Soul.]

[Sleeping Dragon Soul is registered as a skill and receives additional effects from the stealth ability.]

“Additional effects?”

-system? Hmm, I’m anxious. Try turning on the status window.

Baek Woo-jin opened the status window and read the contents of Jamryong Haeng registered in the technology.

[Sleep Dragon Soul (Level 1)]

Additional effect: Distorts the flow of mana, making it undetectable by search magic of level 5 or lower.

“Does this mean it won’t be affected by detection magic?”

-okay. This means that it will not be affected by detection magic such as View Mana Force or boundary magic such as Legion Zone. But…

he sighed and continued, as if he was tired of the darkness.

-You’re really frustrated because the system can’t take care of you. I’m so annoyed that they gave me that kind of ability when I was going to assassinate a wizard.

“I just got lucky.”

-It’s not just luck. It’s so fucking good!

While Baek Woo-jin was laughing and listening to Darkness’ complaints, the flip phone vibrated.

[young master. All information has been organized.]

Baek Woo-jin closed his phone after seeing the text message.

“It’s the perfect moment.”

**

Yoo Jin-ah took out several documents from the envelope and handed the first page to Baek Woo-jin.

“You must have done some research, so you will know the contents of the first chapter.”

The first chapter was basic information about Lee In-seong.

It was about age, guild skills, hobbies, friendships, etc.

“The second chapter is the most recently updated material.”

Baek Woo-jin received the second document from Yoo Jin-ah.

“For the past two years, Lee In-seong has been frequently attending wizard conferences and gatherings held in each region.”

“Academic?”

“yes. “What’s strange is that you go to a conference that is of a lower level than you.”

“It’s a low-level academy….”

“They’re treated well, and they made excuses about training the next generation and guild scouts, but that’s something Gilma doesn’t need to do. Just have someone else do it. “It’s a strange thing because wizards don’t like wasting time.”

“I see.”

It is strange that Lee In-seong, a guild master and level 7 wizard, participates in a society of a lower level than himself.

-Someone as insidious as a necromancer participates in a conference to train the next generation? I don’t even trust passing dogs.

Heukam also criticized Lee In-seong’s actions.

“We investigated the people at the society that Lee In-seong participates in, and it turned out that several wizards participate in common.”

“Who is it?”

“Kim Hwan-yeong of Firebird, Heo Hoe-tae of Hoo Yeon-moon, and Park Jae-hyun of Rupel…”

Baek Woo-jin nodded as he heard the names of the wizards.

-Do you know any of those names?

‘Kim Hwan-young and Park Jae-hyun are also necromancers. I don’t know who Heo Hoe-tae is, but seeing as they are together, he must be a necromancer too.’

-They seem to have regular meetings at or after the conference.

‘I guess so. ‘You used your brain well.’

It was a thought that caught me off guard.

No one would have thought that after the wizards’ conference, there would be a gathering of necromancers.

“The place Lee In-seong is going this time is Yongin, Gyeonggi-do.”

Eugene brought a detailed map of Yongin and unfolded it.

“Since you said it was an assassination, it would be a good idea to attack him when he leaves the conference. “The route I looked at is…”

Eugene showed pictures of good places to attack and even explained them.

“Although Lee In-seong is ranked 7, he hasn’t played in practice since leaving Lucas. “Your senses will have been dulled, so if you make a quick surprise attack, you will be able to successfully assassinate him.”

“Thank you.”

I meant it.

Yoo Jin-ah prepared not only Lee In-seong’s personal information, but also where he was going and what magic he was using, as well as the assassination route and escape route.

I was truly fortunate to have formed a good relationship with such a talented person.

“Of course I have to do this.”

Yoo Jin-ah smiled brightly, as if she liked Baek Woo-jin’s reaction.

“And take this too.”

Eugene took out a gray cloak from under the desk.

“This?”

Eugene smiled and held out his cloak.

“It will be helpful.”

**

Baek Woo-jin was watching the president of the conference being held in the alley.

-When is it coming out?

‘It’s past 10 o’clock, so everyone should come out now.’

As soon as Baek Woo-jin finished speaking, people began to come out of the venue.

‘There it is.’

Baek Woo-jin immediately found Lee In-seong.

This was because I remembered his mana even before he entered the venue.

‘There are other guys next to me.’

-Are they necromancers?

‘that’s right.’

In addition to the guild members, next to Lee In-seong were the wizards that Yu Jin-ah had mentioned. They were all necromancers.

-As expected, you attend a conference during the day and attend a necromancer’s meeting at night.

‘that’s right. ‘You used your brain well.’

These guys are really big-hearted people who pretend to go to a conference and hold a gathering of necromancers. So I wouldn’t have been caught – but I’m moving.

‘I have to follow.’

Baek Woo-jin followed Lee In-seong and the wizards.

Even though they were following right behind them, they could not hear Baek Woo-jin’s presence or his footsteps.

‘This cloak is nice.’

The gray cloak that Eugene gave was a special cloak that lightened the presence and completely silenced the sound of footsteps.

What was interesting was that it was a set with Rapport’s leather boots that he had.

[Rapor’s Gray Cloak]

This is a cloak favored by Rapor, a thief called Black Cloud. It blurs the wearer’s presence and muffles the sound of footsteps.

Grade: Unique.

Wearable conditions: None.

Presence blur effect.

Remove footstep sounds.

Intelligence +7

Mana +7

Body +7

< Rapport set effect >

Hides the flow of the wearer’s mana.

Even the mana was hidden due to the set effect worn with Laport’s leather boots.

Because the effects of the Sleeping Dragon Soul and the Rapport set overlapped, the current Baek Woo-jin was not a wizard, but even an excellent warrior could not detect it.

-I never thought I would just give you a cloak like that. That woman is also big.

‘I lent it to you.’

-Do you think she will get it back?

‘Hmm…’

Just as the darkness said, Baek Woo-jin also thought that Yoo Jin-ah would not receive this cloak again.

‘Let’s think about it later and just follow along. ‘They’re really starting to move.’

As they left the city and the number of people decreased, Lee In-seong and the necromancers wore unknown masks, used stealth magic and haste on their bodies, and began to move quickly.

‘Let’s take a look and see where you are and what you are doing.’

Baek Woo-jin used his Sleep Dragon Spirit to its full potential and chased after Lee In-seong.

**

‘It’s gone from here.’

Lee In-seong and his disciples and other magicians entered the place where the abandoned building was located.

Although people entered, the exterior of the building did not change at all.

-It is a magic circle that hides the inside. There are quite a few people in there.

‘okay. I can feel the flow of mana.’

Baek Woo-jin nodded and looked at the magic circle.

It was like a magic that only distorted space without any other effects.

-There are unmanned people around.

There were about ten warriors hiding around the abandoned building.

The skill level was 4th to 5th grade.

‘are you okay. ‘They can’t see me on their level.’

-You want to go in? If only Lee In-seong was killed, it would have been much better to wait.

‘We will deal with all the necromancers. And I’ll have to see what they’re doing inside.’

Necromancers were terrible people who ate the souls of ordinary people, and they grew stronger quickly, so they had to be killed when the opportunity was available.

‘You’re here. Let’s go in.’

Baek Woo-jin followed behind when a warrior entered the magic circle.

‘Ah…’

Baek Woo-jin, who entered Ma Bunjin, stopped as if frozen.

-Damn you guys…

The inside of the magic circle looked like a market.

However, people were on display, not objects.

‘You crazy bastards!’

Anger like an active volcano welled up in Baek Woo-jin’s eyes.
