I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy

Episode 11. First practice (2)

-What is it?

“When you defeat the boss of a dungeon, it drops an item that can be used by a skilled person. “You might come across a good item, but you can’t miss the lottery right in front of you.”

-Ah…

As I was chasing Jeok Yeon-hwa while explaining things to Heuk-am, a hologram window appeared in front of me.

[An unexpected quest has arrived.]

Defeat the dungeon boss faster than anyone else.

Condition: Defeat the vine rock mole.

Reward: 200 point unexpected reward.

The hologram window that appeared was an unexpected quest. After reading the content, there was no need to reject it. It was exactly the quest I wanted.

“accept.”

[You have accepted the unexpected quest.]

Baek Woo-jin, who accepted the quest, quickly warmed up. Preparation for power generation.

“I risk my life!”

-How dare you risk your life!

Baek Woo-jin ran forward without even listening to everything the darkness said. A vine mole appeared in the middle and I saw the mole’s corpse, but I ignored it and rushed forward.

-Are you sure you were really a turtle?

“ok? “What are you talking about all of a sudden?”

-Why is a guy who was crushed in his previous life and only trained, going crazy like this? Didn’t you have a problem with your head while regressing?

“ha ha ha!”

Baek Woo-jin burst into laughter at the words of darkness. I understood what he was trying to say.

“Think about it.”

-What are you telling me to think about?

“Have you seen what the atmosphere is like in our house?”

-okay. It’s not bloody.

“that’s right. It’s a really harsh environment, especially for people without talent. I lived there for 25 years. “Wouldn’t it be weirder if I had a normal and quiet personality?”

-Um…

“The prosecutors ignored me and my brothers laughed at me. I even directly harassed the seventh, sixth, and fifth. “It would be difficult for an average person to endure in a place like that.”

Baek Woo-jin’s expression hardened like the bark of a tree as unpleasant old thoughts flowed in.

“Even back then, I said what I had to say and wasn’t intimidated. “Thanks to you, I had a harder time.”

-I see…

Baek Woo-jin maintained high self-esteem even though he knew that he was the only one with no talent in a family full of geniuses. That’s really great mental strength.

“Well, let’s talk about the bittersweet stuff later. “It’s starting to get clogged now.”

-okay. It’s going to be hard to just pass by.

As we got closer to the boss and Red Lotus disappeared, the vine moles were blocking the path forward.

-The vine mole looks unusual. This is the first monster I’ve seen.

The vine mole looked similar to an ordinary mole, but was much larger and had thick vines wrapped around its neck and wrists.

“It hasn’t been that long since that monster appeared here.”

-So you don’t know its weaknesses or how to easily hunt them?

“It’s not a very strong monster, so its weaknesses haven’t been studied very much.”

-Well, that’s a shame.

“But it will be different 10 years later.”

Although moles have not been fully studied in 2020, there is a clear strategy for attacking creeping moles in 2030, before Baek Woo-jin returns.

Slurp.

Baek Woo-jin drew his sword. I smiled involuntarily at the feel of the handle I was holding for the first time in a long time.

-So do you know your weaknesses?

“You’ll know when you see it.”

Baek Woo-jin quickly ran towards the place where the moles were gathered.

“Kick!”

“Quick!”

The moles that discovered Baek Woo-jin struck down the vines and swung their sharp claws.

Ugh!

Baek Woo-jin lowered his head to avoid the vines, then raised his sword and deflected the mole’s claws.

Phew!

Baek Woo-jin rushed forward and thrust his sword into the mole’s neck, which was protected by vines.

Patter.

The multiple layers of vines unraveled like a broken rubber band, revealing the mole’s soft neck. Without delay, Baek Woo-jin stabbed the mole with his sword and cut off the mole’s life.

“Kkeak….”

“Kkeak!”

The moles were surprised to see their comrade being defeated so easily and took a step back.

“There is no use running away.”

Baek Woo-jin took down the four moles surrounding him by stabbing their necks in the same way.

widely.

After catching all the moles gathered around, I ran again to track down Jeok Yeon-hwa.

“There was a place where the vines overlapped on the mole’s neck, right?”

-okay. The vines were thick so I thought I shouldn’t aim for them.

“Ordinary people think that way, because they are heavily protected. But the intersection is the weak point.”

-So that’s why the vine came loose on your sword.

“But that doesn’t mean it will be released unconditionally; you have to stab it accurately. “I thought I could do it the way I am now, but it’s possible.”

Baek Woo-jin chuckled, put his sword back and ran with all his might.

“The vines may look the hardest at first glance, but they can be easily broken apart. “When the vines are released, the weakness of this soft, tofu-like creature appears.”

-Is it just difficult to catch it?

“A mole’s skin is surprisingly hard. “It takes a while to pierce it with a regular sword.”

-Then shouldn’t the grade be higher?

“Instead, the movement speed on the ground is slow. If you place a tank or a quick drone in front and attack from a distance, you can catch it easily.”

The level of monsters in the future 10 years from now will be different from today. Although the level of difficulty was high, some monsters were lowered after their weaknesses were revealed, and there were many cases where high grades were taken away by newly appeared strong monsters.

-You know it very well.

“I always got perfect grades in theory. Because it lacks power. “I had to have a lot of knowledge.”

-Hmm…

Darkness thought about patting Baek Woo-jin on the shoulder. I am proud of him for not giving up and working hard in many ways even in difficult situations in his previous life.

Ugh!

A clanging sound was heard from the front. It is red softening.

“You’re all there.”

As I turned the corner, I saw Red Lotus fighting four vine moles. She was operating as an enemy’s rogue auror and beating up moles.

“Hey!”

When Baek Woo-jin ignored her and was about to pass by, Jeok Yeon-hwa called out to him.

“Me?”

“Is there anyone here but you? “Where are we going now?”

“I’m going to the boss.”

“I’m going to catch the boss, so I asked you to take care of the other vine moles. Why did you follow me? “I don’t need any help.”

“I’m not here to help you.”

Baek Woo-jin shrugged his shoulders and laughed. I thought you would be mistaken like this.

“yes? Then why are you here…”

“Who gave you permission to catch the boss?”

“yes?”

“I will catch the boss.”

“under!”

A whimper came out of Jeok Yeon-hwa’s mouth. He doubted his own ears as to whether he had properly heard what came out of Baek Woo-jin’s mouth.

“What did you say just now?”

“The boss said I would catch it.”

“Whew…”

Jeok Yeon-hwa frowned and shook her head. This man was so excited, maybe because he got to grade 1 today. To put it simply, I didn’t know that a one-day puppy tiger was scary.

“I understand that you think you can do anything by obtaining a level 1 qualification. But a dungeon is not a game, and you can’t achieve anything with will alone. “With your abilities, you will never be able to defeat the boss here.”

Jeok Yeon-hwa calmly persuaded Baek Woo-jin. A normal person would have taken a step back after hearing her words, but Baek Woo-jin was not a normal person.

“I came because there was a good chance of catching it.”

“You’ll never catch it. And the boss is mine.”

“Did they put spit on the boss? “Where’s yours and mine?”

“No, everyone leaves so I can’t catch you!”

It was like talking to a wall. I went through the dungeon alone and saw a lot of frustrating people, but the man in front of me was the best.

“Then let’s make a bet.”

“bet?”

“yes. The bet is that if I fight the boss first and defeat it within 3 minutes, I win. “If I can’t catch it within 3 minutes, you can catch the boss and I will grant you one additional wish.”

“3 minutes? “Did you say 3 minutes?”

Jeok Yeon-hwa’s mouth opened wide. There was no mojiri like this. 3 minutes means that even if a level 3 ability comes, it will be difficult to defeat the boss within 3 minutes. The man in front of me wasn’t just crazy, he was seriously crazy.

“You have nothing to lose. “If I don’t catch the boss within 3 minutes, you can deal with the boss after that.”

“under! great. I’ll take that bet. “If you catch the boss within 3 minutes, I will grant you any wish.”

“I promised.”

“of course. “I don’t lie.”

Baek Woo-jin nodded. Jeok Yeon-hwa keeps her promises no matter what. It was a bet I made because I knew that.

-Are you confident? Isn’t 3 minutes too short?

‘are you okay. Bosses also have weaknesses. What are 3 minutes? ‘I should have caught it in a minute.’

-What a con man…

‘Hahaha!’

The rock mole, the vine mole boss, also has a weakness. It has a fatal weakness that can kill you in an instant if you stab it.

“Then let’s open the way together. “Can you do that much?”

“Of course.”

Jeok Yeon-hwa nodded, then went to Baek Woo-jin’s side and struck down the gathered moles.

‘What on earth are you thinking?’

Jeok Yeon-hwa observed Baek Woo-jin catching a mole. His skills weren’t bad for a young age, but that was it. I’ve just reached level 1, so if I keep using Aurors like this, I’ll be exhausted before I even get to the boss. This bet was an unlikely one from the beginning.

‘Are you really trying to get my attention?’

Jeok Yeon-hwa made eye contact with Baek Woo-jin and frowned. Now I felt like I knew why the man in front of me had come all the way here and was acting so unreasonable.

‘The expression you were looking at earlier seemed strange.’

This one-day puppy fell in love with him and came out in such a reckless way to attract attention. A similar case happened not long ago, and these people are very frustrating.

“Huh…”

A sigh full of patheticness came out of Jeok Yeon-hwa’s mouth.

– Baek Woo-jin.

‘why?’

-That woman suddenly looks at you with blatant disgust?

‘Of course.’

Baek Woo-jin glanced at Jeok Yeon-hwa behind him.

‘Think about it. I ran like crazy to catch the boss, but he said I would come and catch him first. Of course I would be upset. Still, it’s no use. That’s mine.’

-Hmm, I don’t think so…

**

After moving for about 10 minutes, we reached the end of the dungeon and the boss of the dungeon, a vine rock mole, appeared.

It was slightly smaller than an adult male, and its fingernails were sharp like blades, so much so that it seemed as if flesh would fall off with just a touch.

The mole had a long vine on its right hand that was used like a whip, and the vines were wrapped around its head and neck with hard marble-like things, making it difficult to attack.

“Are you sure you’re going to do it? Please step back now. “You can’t win.”

“We decided to make a bet, so what are you talking about all of a sudden? “Are you scared?”

“direction? Are you scared? I?”

“Otherwise, just stay still. “Your time starts in 3 minutes.”

“Ugh…”

Jeok Yeon-hwa frowned at Baek Woo-jin’s words. I gave him one last chance, but he kicked it away.

-You seem very angry.

‘Never mind. ‘It will be over in 3 minutes.’

Baek Woo-jin was not interested in Jeok Yeon-hwa at all. All he is aiming for is the rock mole in front of him and the reward he will get after that.

‘Hmph…’

Jeok Yeon-hwa looked at Baek Woo-jin who stepped forward and turned on the stopwatch. It’s just 3 minutes. In just three minutes, I’m thinking of kicking that guy and catching the mole.

‘There’s no way I can win at that level.’

At first, I thought Baek Woo-jin was the youngest member of the Shingeombaek family, but he had a standard sword and an ordinary outfit. The elites of the White House would not walk around like that, nor would they come to a dungeon like this.

‘Tsk…’

Jeok Yeon-hwa felt annoyed by Baek Woo-jin, but she had no intention of causing him serious injury. Ready to go out at any time.

‘It’s pretty good.’

Baek Woo-jin dodged the vine whip wielded by the rock mole by jumping in place. If I ran forward with the intention of approaching, I would get caught in a vine, but I stayed calm as if I knew that.

‘But that’s not all.’

The scariest thing about the rock mole is not its whip but its sharp claws. Jeok Yeon-hwa took a stance. This is because the moment he gets cut by his fingernail, he has to go save Baek Woo-jin.

“uh?”

A deflated sound came from Jeok Yeon-hwa’s mouth. This is because Baek Woo-jin, who was charging at the rock mole, used the back step to avoid the mole’s claw attack. It was amazingly perfect timing.

Huh!

Jeok Yeon-hwa could hear the sound of the wind blowing through her ears. Suddenly, just as I was wondering what the wind was, the rock mole fell down with its head on the ground.

The solid rock surrounding the mole’s head split in half and the vines broke into pieces. The cheap sword Baek Woo-jin was holding was stuck in the rock mole’s head.

“How…”

While Jeok Yeon-hwa was opening her mouth with a mesmerized look on her face, Baek Woo-jin turned around.

“It’s over. I won the bet.”
