I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy

Chapter 60



Episode 60 New Sword (4)

‘Hmm…’

Baek Woo-jin frowned as he climbed the stairs of Gajujeon.

-Relax. Looking at Baek Seon-ah’s expression, I think she will start a fight sooner or later.

‘It’s not about that. In my previous life, during this time, my father was not summoned and my eldest brother did not return. The future has changed.’

-Is it because of you?

‘That’s all there is to it.’

I don’t know the exact reason, but today’s summons may have occurred because of his various actions.

‘Everyone gathered except the eldest brother.’

When I arrived at the door, everyone except Baek Yeon-hwi, the eldest brother, was gathered.

The other brothers did not pretend to know him, and only the third brother waved awkwardly.

I said hello to my third brother and went to stand at the end.

-Then you don’t know why your father summoned everyone.

‘It’s probably because of the competition for successor.’

Baek Woo-jin had been predicting the reason ever since Baek Cheon-hwa said he had summoned everyone.

-why?

‘It’s because I called my first brother. If it wasn’t for the successor story, just calling us would have been enough. Also…’

As I was trying to explain to the black man, I felt a huge force that made my hair stand on end.

Jerk.

With the sound of heavy steps coming up the stairs, the owner of the momentum appeared.

This man, who is over 190 cm tall and gives off a wild aura like looking at a wild beast, is Baek Yeon-hwi, the firstborn of the Baek family.

Baek Yeon-hwi glanced at the direct descendants of the Baek family one by one, then went to Baek Woo-jin and stopped.

His eyes shook slightly as if he had seen something unexpected.

“let’s go.”

Baek Yeon-hwi turned her head as if nothing had happened and opened the door to Gajujeon. His direct relatives followed him inside.

‘Phew…’

Baek Woo-jin sighed as if he was tired.

Even at this level, I had no idea how powerful Baek Yeon-hwi was.

There was an enormous difference between him and himself.

-That guy is in the very late stages of level 8. I’ll be reaching level 9 soon. He is the strongest in this family except your father.

‘Rather than supplementary stock?’

-okay. That guy is stronger.

‘After all, he is a person called a monster.’

Baek Woo-jin shook his head and entered the family battle.

“Meet the matriarch!”

Everyone, including Baek Woo-jin, knelt down at the same time.

“Get up.”

Baek Tian-hwa raised his hand and received everyone’s greetings.

He looked from Baek Yeon-hwi to Baek Myung-hoon and finally turned his gaze to Baek Woo-jin.

“Baek Woo-jin.”

“yes!”

“Why do you think I called you?”

“It’s because of the selection of a successor.”

“Why did you think that?”

“Because you summoned my first brother.”

“okay. “I thought you would know right away.”

As Baek Cheon-hwa smiled and nodded, Baek Seon-ah and Baek Myung-hoon from Baekho glanced at Baek Woo-jin disapprovingly.

“What the youngest said is right. “I called you all to talk about selecting a successor.”

Baek Cheon-hwa lifted his back from the chair and stood up.

-Have you really mastered mind reading?

‘That was natural. Everyone except a few idiots probably knew. ‘It’s just that the future has changed.’

This moment is a situation that has never existed in the past.

I was a little worried because the butterfly effect occurred.

“If there are eight successor candidates, that is too many. “I’ll just cut it in half.”

Baek Cheon-hwa spread out four fingers.

This meant that only four out of eight people would be accepted as successor candidates.

“The selection method is, of course, based on performance.”

“When you say performance, what do you mean?”

Baek Seon-ah looked up at Baek Cheon-hwa and opened her mouth.

“Simple. Complete the mission of the new sword and go out into the world to build up your reputation. “Use whatever is available to you, not just the force and power you have.”

“Hmm…”

“Ah…”

At Baek Cheon-hwa’s words, the immediate descendants rolled their eyes, lost in their own thoughts.

“We are younger and weaker than our older brothers. My power is still weak, so doing it now would be too disadvantageous…”

Baek Myung-hun raised his hand, his whole body trembling.

“It’s your fault for being born late, so what are you asking me to do? “If you’re scared, you can give up now.”

Baek Cheon-hwa looked down at Baek Myung-hun with a cold expression that chilled the viewer.

“Oh no! I’ll do it!”

“Your younger brother, unlike you, has performed excellently and brought glory to the name of the Baek family. “Try to follow Woojin’s example.”

When Baek Cheon-hwa openly praised Baek Woo-jin, Gaju-jeon fell into silence.

Baek So-hee, Baek Eun-kyung, and Baek Yeon-hwi also looked at Baek Woo-jin once in a while.

“Woojin, if you just do what you have been doing so far, you will be a candidate for successor. “Do your best until the end.”

Baek Tian-hwa curled the corners of his mouth and smiled, but the other direct relatives gave Baek Woo-jin a cold look.

‘Is this how it comes out?’

-Your father is a really nasty person.

‘That’s not a compliment. The poison is a terrible poison too.’

Baek Cheon-hwa deliberately praised Baek Woo-jin in front of everyone.

This was no different from telling other direct officials to keep Baek Woo-jin in check.

‘In addition, the selection of successor candidates has become much faster than in my previous life.’

-The future has changed because of your activities.

The butterfly effect was much bigger than expected.

“I’ve said everything I wanted to say, so let’s go.”

All of the immediate family members bowed to Baek Cheon-hwa’s gesture and then left the family hall.

widely.

After the door to the family hall was closed, Baek Cheon-woong, the head of the family, appeared from behind the podium.

“What is the reason for stimulating the children already? “Woojin and Myunghoon are not even 20 years old yet.”

“Have you ever heard of loneliness?”

“loneliness?”

Baek Tian-hwa smiled and twirled his finger.

“If you put hundreds of poisonous insects in a jar, put a lid on it, and open it a week later, all the poisonous insects will die and only one poisonous insect will survive. “That guy is called loneliness.”

“Why the sudden solitude….”

“They say that solitude has a vitality stronger than whale tendons and is more toxic than hundreds of poisonous insects. “Isn’t it interesting?”

“Does the head of the household regard those children as poisonous insects who will become lonely?”

Baek Tian-hwa did not answer but looked at Baek Tian-woong with emotionless eyes.

“Aren’t there Yeonhwi, Eunkyeong, and Seonghyeon? With their ability, those children deserve to be great family heads. Leave the children below…”

“Why should I do that? Those children will move on their own to build achievements and shine the family name. Look at Woojin. No one knew that this guy would develop like that. “This is a child who has the potential to be lonely.”

“Then what happens to the children left behind?”

“Should I even care about being left out?”

“Go, head…”

“You and I both lived alone, so why are you so surprised?”

Baek Tian-hwa laughed at Baek Tian-woong with a cold smile.

“Even when we were competing, we didn’t touch the brothers below us! Just me, the matriarch, and my eldest brother…”

“You were the same. I wasn’t. “I stepped on everything that came up from below and crushed it.”

“Huh…”

Baek Cheonwoong’s face turned white. As expected, it is different. Baek Cheon-hwa was a very different person from himself.

“What are you going to do? Are you going to leave the family like you said last year?”

“I tried to do that. But…”

Baek Cheon-woong turned his back and quietly muttered.

“I have a child I want to watch over more.”

**

Baek Yeon-hwi immediately returned to the front line as if he did not care about performance or anything else.

Regardless of her mission, Baek Eun-kyung headed to Namhae, where demons were said to have appeared.

From Baek Seong-hyeon to Baek Myeong-hun, they were busy carrying out the mission given to them.

On the other hand, Baek Woo-jin did not receive any missions, so he mastered the changes he had made while dealing with Agumdae.

After that, I enjoyed living as an unemployed person in a corner of the gym, looking at flowers during the day and looking at the stars at night.

-Why are you shaking so much?

‘Because I’m looking at the flowers and leaves. ‘I thought it would remind me of something.’

-Then what about seeing the stars at night?

‘okay. ‘I keep feeling itchy in my head.’

-Huh…

The darkness landed on Baek Woo-jin’s shoulder as if all its strength had been lost.

-How did you get to the shape already?

‘Shape?’

-To put it simply, you have reached the stage of visualization where you create swordsmanship from what you see and feel. I never thought it would get there this quickly…

‘It took 2 months, is that fast?’

-I thought it would take eight months at the fastest, but you got this far in just two months. You bastard of corruption!

‘It’s not bad if you cut it off by 6 months.’

Baek Woo-jin smiled and caught the flower petals blowing in the wind.

-not bad? Is this scumbag really?

Darkness was about to spit out an insult but held back.

Climbing the image is no different from reaching the final stage of opening the path to the sword with just one enlightenment.

This meant that Geomro could be opened tomorrow.

-How blessed are you…

“Young master!”

As Heukam spoke, Jeon Jun-hyuk was running towards him with an envelope.

“This is a mission given to you by the Public Prosecution Department.”

“I’m coming.”

Perhaps because I was given a break, I didn’t receive any missions for a month after that day, but the new sword’s mission finally arrived.

Tteuk.

I immediately tore it open and read the contents of the envelope.

“Hmm…”

-What is it about and what impression did you get when you saw it?

‘I think it will collide with the main gate.’

-If it’s Daeyeonmun, I mentioned it before…

Baek Woo-jin folded the envelope and nodded.

‘okay. It’s one of the four major guilds like Shingeombaekga.’

**

Baek Woo-jin followed the instructions of the mission office and headed to the branch of Shingeombaekga in Cheongju.

“It is an honor to meet you, Master!”

Branch leader Jeong Woo-hyun bowed his head to Baek Woo-jin.

“Nice to meet you.”

Baek Woo-jin bowed his head.

“What is the situation?”

“Not good. They are spreading their influence in earnest in Daeyeonmun and invading our territory. “Citizens are also suffering because they are arguing with guild members and putting pressure on them here and there.”

“Hmm….”

“Besides, those Daeyeonmun bastards are using their good image to pass the damage on to us. “They are really nasty people.”

Jung Woo-hyun clenched his fist until it bled.

“As expected.”

Baek Woo-jin nodded with a confused face.

-What is going on?

‘Daeyeonmun has opened a branch in Cheongju and is invading our territory. My job is to stop it.’

-To put it simply, it’s a guild’s fight against each other.

‘that’s right. ‘The more dungeons you secure, the more money you can earn and the stronger you become.’

When a dungeon appears, the guild in that area is given priority for staffing.

In order to secure priority, a power struggle takes place between guilds in important lands.

‘But Cheongju is a place with nothing special, so why are they setting up a branch now?’

Currently, dungeons rarely appear in Cheongju, so Singeombaekga did not pay much attention to Cheongju.

The branch leader was in the early 5th level and there were not many guild members, so it was only a branch.

-Wasn’t that place called Daeyeonmun a good guild?

‘When you hear the name, it seems like a fair and good place, but it’s not at all.’

They spend a lot of money to create a good image, so it only looks good, but Daeyeonmun is not a guild that cares about the greater good.

“Who is currently in charge of the Daeyeonmun branch?”

“This is Guhyeongeom Kim Seong-je.”

Jung Woo-hyun groaned and said Kim Seong-jae’s name.

“If it’s an implementation sword, it’s a sword that changes nine times, right?”

“you’re right. “I am a level 6 swordsman belonging to the Daeyeonmun Yeongeomdan.”

“Suddenly, they sent the Sword of Implementation to establish a branch…”

Baek Woo-jin tilted his head.

‘Is there something you’re after in Cheongju? Or are you keeping the Baek family in check because of me? Whatever it is, it’s fine.’

-What do you mean it went well?

‘Kim Seong-je is an expert in criminal defense. I think I can stick with him and get the prosecution’s true intentions.’

-You’re fooling around again. That guy is going to fight you?

‘We have to make them fight. ‘I know what kind of person Kim Seong-je is.’

Baek Woo-jin smiled and stood up.

“Let’s go.”

“yes?”

“I will finish this matter right away, so please guide me to the Daeyeonmun branch.”

“Yes?”

Jung Woo-hyun jumped up in surprise, as if he was going to black out.

“You’re saying we’ll solve it? “Right now?”

“yes. Please take all the guild members and guide them to the Daeyeonmun branch.”

“Are you sure you want to go to war? “Now, there are so many talented people from headquarters at Daeyeonmun that we can’t win!”

“no. The number of people has to be right. “I will fight alone.”

When Jung Woo-hyun saw Baek Woo-jin’s confident smile, he felt that he had faith that he would solve everything.

“All right. “I will guide you.”

**

Baek Woo-jin arrived at the Daeyeonmun branch under the guidance of Jeong Woo-hyeon.

The branch of Daeyeonmun was a large manor, and the large silver gate was the most noticeable thing.

Looking at its strength, it seemed to be made of solid iron.

“The front door just looks like you want to break it down.”

“There have been more than a few times when I passed by here and thought I wanted to break it. But that door was made of iron, and doing something like that would lead to war.”

Jung Woo-hyun nodded and smiled as if he agreed.

“Then shall we break down the gate first?”

“ha ha ha! Master, you make jokes really funny…”

Jung Woo-hyun naturally thought Baek Woo-jin was joking, but he wasn’t.

Goooooh.

Baek Woo-jin’s mood changed suddenly.

A thuggish spirit rose up from him that made his heart tremble.

Kiiiiing!

The black aura on Baek Woo-jin’s sword spun like crazy.

“Master Tao! What are you doing now!”

Before Jung Woo-hyun had time to stop him, light as dark as the night sky poured out from Baek Woo-jin’s sword.

Kwaaaaang!

With the sound of a shell exploding, the iron gate disappeared without a trace.

“Ah….”

“Oh my God….”

“It’s war!”

Baek Woo-jin laughed in front of the fascinated prosecutors of the branch.

“Let’s go chase out the rats that are eating away at the barn.”
