I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy

Episode 20. Father’s Exam

Moon Ju-young came to Gajujeon after receiving a call from Baek Cheon-hwa.

“See you, matriarch.”

Moon Ju-young knelt down and bowed. Baek Cheon-hwa was greeted with a nod.

“Report what happened to the youngest.”

“Master Woojin has received an escort request. At the request of Seo In-ah of the Arcane Guild, in the Regen area….”

Moon Joo-young told the story of all the incidents that occurred in the Regen area, leaving out nothing. If you are Baek Chun-hwa, you will find out everything sooner or later. If you cheat, it will actually cause damage to Baek Woo-jin.

“Sainwoo?”

“He is a level 4 criminal. Originally, he used a sword, but I think he used an ax to hide his identity.”

“Are you saying the youngest pushed him?”

“That’s right. “Young Master blocked and deflected Sain-woo’s axe swing with all his might using only his swordsmanship and a horizontal cut.”

“Hmm…”

Baek Cheon-hwa touched his chin and let out a light breathing sound. Baek Woo-jin’s performance in catching a level 4 criminal at the age of 15 is satisfactory.

“What happened to the sword?”

“That… I don’t know.”

“I do not know?”

“It is true that black energy emerged from the master’s dagger, but I am not sure if it is black energy. “It was different from any sword I’ve ever seen.”

Even though Moon Joo-young saw Baek Woo-jin using black energy, she couldn’t put it together. It was a more destructive and deadly force than sword energy.

“Whatever it is, it means that it has generated more power than sword energy, right?”

“That is certain because I cut down the ax that contained Sain-woo’s full power.”

“I’m not bored these days because of that guy. “Tsk tsk.”

Moon Joo-young’s body twitched. It was the first time I heard Baek Cheon-hwa say something like that to his own child. That means I really like Baek Woo-jin.

“Who are the children who came to see the youngest?”

“This is Jeok Yeon-hwa, the youngest daughter of the powerful Jeok family, and Seo In-ah, the only daughter of Arcane.”

“These are the children that the youngest saved.”

“That’s right.”

“Not bad.”

A small smile appeared on Baek Cheon-hwa’s mouth. Whether by coincidence or necessity, I was proud that Baek Woo-jin had created a debt to the immediate descendants of two large guilds.

“How long until the exam?”

“22 days left.”

“I decided what the test would be. “Please bring the youngest.”

**

There are countless swords in the world.

Unlike mass-produced swords produced identically in factories or workshops, swords with their own names are called ‘famous swords.’

Because a famous sword is different from an ordinary sword, it can display stronger abilities even when using the same technique.

The sword that Seo In-ah gave to Baek Woo-jin is Hwiyeongeom (輝聯劍), one of the famous swords. As its meaning was to connect light, it had the ability to strengthen the staying power and power of sword energy.

“It’s called Hwiyeongeom. Because Woojin can use sword techniques. This sword will help you. “It increases the power of sword energy.”

“Ah…”

Baek Woo-jin looked blankly at Hwiyeongeom. It is impossible not to know because Baek Ho-jung had the Hwiyeon Sword in his previous life.

“Can you give me such a precious sword? The price is…”

“My father told me to give it to him. “If you don’t take it, I’ll get scolded.”

Seo In-ah smiled warmly. It is a pure smile without lies.

“Then I guess I have no choice but to take it. thank you.”

Of course, I never thought of rejecting it. I only asked out of courtesy.

“It’s up to me who received the grace of lifesaving to say thank you. You need to get some more rest, so I’ll leave now. “I probably won’t be able to come out for a while.”

“What do you mean you can’t come out?”

“Actually, I went into the Regen area without the adults knowing. As punishment, I was banned from going out. “I was barely allowed to see Woojin.”

“I see.”

Baek Woo-jin nodded. It was a natural step since his only daughter came back from the dead. Even if she were his own daughter, he would have scolded her severely.

“Woojin. Next time I will…”

Knock!

As Seo In-ah was about to speak, a knock was heard. A person from the Arcane Guild is waiting for her.

“I guess I should go now.”

“Hwiyeongeom. I will use it well.”

“Hehe, please do that. “See you again when the ban on going out is lifted.”

“All right.”

Seo In-ah smiled sweetly and left the room.

-Women pack gifts indiscriminately. That would be great. I wish.

“What is good?”

-The corners of my mouth were stuck in my ears.

“That’s because I received this sword.”

Baek Woo-jin waved his finger and pulled out the Hwiyeon sword.

Cheaaa!

The sharp, ripe blade seemed to be saying welcome to me.

-It’s a good sword.

“of course. “It’s a prestigious sword.”

-I’ll show you the power of the sword.

As soon as the darkness finished speaking, a hologram appeared in front of Baek Woo-jin.

[Hwiyeongeom]

This is a sword made by world craftsman Kim Jang-hoon when he was just beginning to build his reputation as a craftsman. It has the ability to strengthen the maintenance and power of the auror.

Grade: Unique.

Wearable conditions: None.

Sword energy enhancement +5%

Sword energy maintenance +5%

Sword energy range +5%

Sword skill + 10

Mana + 10

Kim Jang-hoon is one of the best craftsmen that even Baek Woo-jin knows. After Kim Jang-hoon died, the value of the swords he produced rose vertically.

“I can’t believe I got Kim Jang-hoon’s sword…”

-You can’t fully utilize the sword’s abilities yet. Can’t you use swords?

“I will use it soon.”

-Anyway, you speak well.

It’s easy to say, but Baek Woo-jin knows best that using sword techniques is difficult. You have to put in a lot of hard work.

“Darkness. “What is the word ‘seomya’ that I wrote before I fainted?”

-This is my original technique.

“original?”

-I said it before. I was originally human too.

“Ah…”

– As time passed, I recovered my memories of my skills. Now I can use all but the last one.

Heukam explained his secret technique in a slightly bitter voice.

-That’s because you’re really weak. A proper Seomya is not that powerful. If I had written it, the whole forest would have been blown away. Anyway, your level is too low. When I was…

“I understand. “Old man.”

-What an old brat!

Baek Woo-jin ignored the pride of darkness and opened the quest window.

[Calculate the reward for the quest < Connecting Relationships >.]

[400 reward points have been paid.]

[Hong In-soo’s favorability has increased.] [

Jeok Yeon-hwa’s favorability has increased.]

[Seo In-ah’s favorability has increased. .]

…

[200 additional points are awarded as a result of people being moved by you.]

“As expected, if you touch people’s emotions, you receive additional points.”

-I don’t know why those extra points only work for you.

“okay?”

-None of my previous owners received benefits like you. It seems like the owner of this system favors you.

“Such favoritism is always welcome.

Baek Woo-jin grinned and brought up the status window.

“Sounds good.”

As soon as I saw the status window, I started laughing. Perhaps because he had a Hwiyeon sword, the sword option was also applied.

-What are you going to raise with those points?

“It would be perfect if you could improve your swordsmanship.”

-To be mean. Aren’t you on a quest right now?

What darkness said is right. As the quest was currently in progress, sword skills were locked and could not be improved.

“We should leave it alone for now.”

-why? It would be better to post something.

“Father, there’s still an exam left. There are about 20 days left now. “I can’t believe I fell asleep for two days during this important moment!”

-You’re trying to upload it after seeing what the test is.

“That’s best.”

-Anyway, the fine hair is working well.

Darkness shook its body as it looked at Baek Woo-jin. Baek Woo-jin seemed to instinctively find an efficient method for himself. There was no need for his own advice in this regard.

“I don’t know what kind of test my father will give me, but it will definitely not be an ordinary test. Since we caught that criminal, the level of difficulty must have increased. Tsk.”

Baek Woo-jin clicked his tongue and frowned. Seeing as Moon Ju-young is not there, she must be reporting to her father.

-What are you doing considering what has already happened?

“That’s right. “We have to move forward.”

Baek Woo-jin stood up, holding his sword tightly.

“It’s late, but let’s start today’s training.”

**

-There are two things you need to do from today.

“Do you have two?”

-okay. There is nothing we can do as time is running out.

“Well, if I don’t pass my father’s test, I have to train with them.”

Baek Woo-jin pointed to the trainees receiving training as a group.

-right. You chose to walk the path of a prosecutor on your own. If you train with them, your growth will be limited.

“yes. “I don’t want to receive anything from that instructor.”

Baek Woo-jin relaxed slightly while listening to the words of darkness. After he finished speaking, preparations were made to begin training immediately.

-The first thing is to increase your level by putting your will into swordsmanship, which I mentioned before. Even if you only swing the sword once, you must put your will into it.

“It’s difficult.”

-The quality of your swordsmanship will determine your future. It’s important, so don’t neglect it.

“Phew, I understand. “What’s the second one?”

-It is a step method.

“Bobeop? “I’m learning how to walk.”

Baek Woo-jin showed the spiritual treasure that all Shingeombaekga practitioners know.

-That walking method isn’t bad, but it doesn’t suit you.

“It doesn’t suit you?”

-okay. The walking method is a walking technique with a full interior.

“Hmm…”

Baek Woo-jin listened to the words of darkness and thought about their meaning.

-…

Darkness said no more and waited until Baek Woo-jin finished thinking. It is to give Baek Woo-jin an opportunity to develop himself.

“ah!”

-Do you understand?

“The swordsmanship I am learning has a high degree of freedom. You can use it in any position. But there is no freedom in Yeongsubo. Are you saying that it is so standardized that the freedom that is the strength of my swordsmanship is lost?”

-That’s right.

The voice of darkness trembled slightly. To be honest, I never thought that Baek Woo-jin would find the right answer right away. There was no need for the wonderful lines I had prepared.

-Well, anyway, that walking method doesn’t suit you. If you had learned the walking technique that suited you, you would have been able to avoid that damn ax when your sword broke.

“that’s right. “My feet couldn’t move at that time.”

Baek Woo-jin nodded and agreed. When I saw Sain-woo’s axe, his legs didn’t move as if they were made of lead.

-From now on, I will teach you the walking technique.

Darkness approached Baek Woo-jin’s eyes.

-This walking method is also a walking method that you create. Right now, the name is unknown, but it will become a step method with status depending on your movements and will.

“I like that.”

Baek Woo-jin nodded. I like the fact that the method of walking can change to suit one’s skills and will.

-First, spread your legs shoulder-width apart.

Baek Woo-jin took a stance with his legs spread shoulder-width apart.

-It doesn’t matter which foot goes out first. Turn 15 degrees and go only the length of your feet.

Baek Woo-jin moved according to the instructions of darkness and learned the method of ignorance. Since I was yelled at if I made even the slightest mistake, I was able to quickly learn the correct posture.

“As you said, there are endless directions for the development of this walking technique. “I think it can change in some way.”

-right. Now, that empty step will change according to your will.

“Now I have to go through the tedious process of mastery.”

Although he said he was tired, a smile bloomed on Baek Woo-jin’s face. Unlike my previous life, I was really enjoying learning and learning new things because I was seeing results from my efforts.

“young master.”

When Baek Woo-jin took a breather and was about to start practicing the footwork again, Moon Ju-young approached him. His face looked a little dark.

“I have something to tell you.”

“I guess you went to visit your father.”

“Oh, did you know?”

Moon Ju-young opened her mouth in surprise.

“I woke up and couldn’t see you. I thought that was it.”

“If you know, you can tell me right away.”

Moon Joo-young paused for a moment and then opened his mouth again.

“The head of the family has decided on a test for you.”
