I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy

Episode 6. Auror Practice

“Hmm….”

Baek Woo-jin was staring blankly at the hundred cards floating in front of him. All cards had a black dagger drawn on them.

-That is unexpected compensation.

“Does this mean that since it is an unexpected event, the reward is also random?”

-That’s exactly what it says. Just draw one of those cards.

“Good. “I like this kind of thing.”

He looked at the card closely with an interested expression. The cards had the same shape and color, so they were completely indistinguishable. I had no choice but to draw it by luck.

-Hoo, are you usually lucky?

“Is that possible? “He just likes to draw.”

-Ha…

Darkness sighed as if he was dumbfounded. Whenever I talk to Baek Woo-jin, I always seem to get involved.

“I’ll choose this one.”

Baek Woo-jin chose the card on the far right.

-Is there a reason?

“I chose the one that appealed to me the least.”

-That’s your style. good night. Turn over the card.

When Baek Woo-jin selected the card, the card flipped over and dazzling golden light burst out. I closed my eyes for a moment and when I opened them, all the cards had disappeared and a bead was floating in front of my eyes.

“marble?”

-Something good came out. It will suit you well.

“What is this?”

-It is a single ring that permanently increases mana sensitivity.

“Mana sensitivity?”

-Is this a word that is not widespread in your world? As your mana sensitivity increases, you can feel and collect mana more easily. It’s a very good thing.

Baek Woo-jin said he was unlucky, so he didn’t expect it at all, but now he got something he really needed.

If Baek Woo-jin eats the Danhwan of Sensitivity, the period for opening and collecting mana will be shortened by several times.

-Golden is the third best grade from the top. Very well chosen.

“It’s a shame. “I should have picked the best one.”

-Go home and talk nonsense. How can you pick just one out of 100?

Darkness shook his body as if to stop him from making foolish remarks. Most of the 100 cards are like losers. Just getting a single ring of mana sensitivity is the biggest hit of all.

“You can pull it out.”

-That’s it. Just eat a single pill.

“okay.”

Baek Woo-jin swallowed the pill of mana sensitivity in one mouthful.

[Mana sensitivity is permanently increased by 10 points.]

A hologram window appeared before my eyes and then disappeared. However, it didn’t feel like I had taken a regular pill. The sunlight felt a little warmer.

“I don’t feel anything?”

-It’s because your mana sensitivity is too low. There is no need to worry because the more you grow, the more effective it will be.

“Is this what it means to create an atmosphere? “Not bad.”

-If you understand, let’s go back now.

“okay. Lastly….”

Baek Woo-jin hit Baek Myung-hoon, who was still unconscious, in the back of the head once more and headed to his room. The darkness that saw this muttered quietly.

-It would be really tiring to be enemies with this guy.

**

“Grunt…”

Baek Woo-jin lay down on the bed after arriving in his room. There was a cool smile on his face as he stepped on Baek Myung-hun.

– Baek Woo-jin. Just ask one question. Are the swordsmen here collecting mana in their hearts?

“huh? “Have you been thinking about that?”

-The prosecutors I saw yesterday, as well as your brother, all had mana spinning in their hearts.

“that’s right. In the past, it was said that mana was collected in the Danjeon or the entire body, but now both swordsmen and wizards collect mana in their hearts.”

The method of collecting mana through the Danjeon or the entire body has been eliminated, and now all abilities, whether swordsman, wizard, spiritist, or warrior, collect mana in the heart.

-As expected.

“Why is that?”

-That method doesn’t suit you.

“what?”

-Your heart is very hard and stiff. It has the advantage of being sturdy, but it has the disadvantage of dissipating mana without being able to feel it. That’s why it wasn’t until you were 23 that you felt Mana.

“Ha…”

At the words of darkness, Baek Woo-jin came to his senses as if cold water had been poured on his face. I thought I simply didn’t have talent, but I never thought there could be a reason like this.

“But now you and the system are together. I also ate a single pill of mana sensitivity. “I also have the experience of becoming a level 1 swordsman!”

-okay. Compared to your previous life, time will be much shorter. But you may not get to the level you want. It’s no different from continuing to carry a handicap.

“But there’s no way.”

-No, there is a way.

After a brief pause, Darkness let out a voice full of weight, unlike usual.

-If you are willing to accept things that are different from other people.

“Are you really throwing away your heart?”

-As expected, you are quick-witted. right. Unlike the humans here, instead of accumulating mana in the heart, you can use the method of accumulating mana in the Danjeon.

“But that is a lost technology due to efficiency issues. “I have a handicap, just like I collect mana in my heart.”

-I don’t know what Danjeon practice is that has been eliminated in your world. However, if you use the right exercises, you will be able to collect mana faster than your heart. Plus, you can use special powers.

The dark voice was full of confidence, just like when we first met. It seemed like he was telling me to just trust myself and follow him.

“Do you have a practice method that allows you to collect mana in the Danjeon?”

-okay. It is called Auror practice.

“They say the powers used by the warriors here are also called Aurors?”

-It’s similar to that, but it’ll be a little different. Should I say that he is an Auror in the true sense of the word…

Ding!

When Baek Woo-jin was about to open his mouth again, a clear beep was heard.

[A new quest has arrived.]

< Walking my own path. >

There were always obstacles and envy for pioneers. Surprise everyone by manifesting the true meaning of Aura!

Condition: After learning the Auror practice method, settle the mana in the Danjeon.

Quest acceptance benefit: Mana response ability and concentration improve during the quest period.

Reward: 400 points Unlocking a special auror (random).

“A quest has arrived.”

-He helps me fit the situation just right. What should I do? Would you like to learn Auror training? Or are you going to collect mana in the heart like everyone else?

“I have no intention of living a normal life now.”

Baek Woo-jin raised his finger to accept the quest.

“I accept.”

[You have accepted the quest < Walking my own path. >]

“What should I do now? “Is it okay to sit cross-legged and feel the mana?”

-Lotus posture? What do you do with that? My legs just hurt. Just find a comfortable position.

Heukam trembled violently, telling him not to do anything like that. If you are collecting mana, a comfortable posture is the best way to feel mana.

“Then you can lie down.”

-Does not matter. Right now, I’m not practicing Auror, I’m just feeling mana.

“okay? okay. ah. wait for a sec.”

Baek Woo-jin turned on the status window and raised his mana with all 450 points remaining. Thanks to this, the mana ability increased from 11 to 20.

“Oh…”

As soon as I raised my mana ability, I felt like my senses had improved greatly. I felt like I could feel the flow of air.

It was disappointing that if I raised it by 10,000 more, my mana would become low level, but I was 50 points short.

-Your head works well. It’s a good method. The time to feel mana due to the actions I just took must have been brought forward by several months.

“Well, it’s like this. haha!”

Baek Woo-jin waved his hand at the praise of darkness and threw himself on the bed.

-I have traveled this path once and have received many special benefits, so I will be able to travel much faster than in my previous life. This time, try to feel the mana right away.

“Of course I intend to.”

Baek Woo-jin closed his eyes and relaxed his body as if floating on water.

-There is no need to concentrate. It should feel natural and very natural.

When Baek Woo-jin listened to the words of darkness, he felt even more at ease. It was so comfortable that when I was about to fall asleep, I felt a faint warmth at the tip of my nose.

-Everyone has arrived. No need to concentrate. Just like you did, more naturally.

After listening to the words of darkness, I became more confident. I breathed slowly and did not miss the feeling of mana I once caught.

“ah!”

As I continued to leave my body free and focus only on my senses, I began to feel the cool sensation of my head popping and the mana dissolved in the air.

What took 13 years in my previous life, this time I did it in just 5 years, or actually just a few hours.

An unbearable bright smile bloomed at the corner of Baek Woo-jin’s mouth.

[Mana has been opened.]

[With the effect of increased sensitivity, you can feel and receive more mana.]

“That’s it! Darkness. “It’s done!”

-Good work. It wasn’t bad to feel it after two days.

“Two days?”

-okay. You lay there for two days.

“what?”

I thought only an hour or two had passed, but when I heard that two days had passed, I immediately turned on my smartphone. August 16th Two days have passed, just as darkness said.

“Poetry is fascinating. “I think I woke up after lying down for a while.”

-That is the power of concentration.

“I didn’t really focus because you said I didn’t need to focus, right?”

-I concentrated properly by trying to relax and feel the mana naturally, rather than being nervous about having to concentrate. It wasn’t bad.

From the beginning, Darkness had predicted that it would not take long for Baek Woo-jin to feel mana. I felt it in my past life, my mana sensitivity increased, and my mana ability also increased.

-Unlike feeling mana, accumulating mana in a danjeon will be very difficult because you have never done it in your previous life. To be honest, feeling mana isn’t even a warm-up exercise.

“Hmm…”

-Then let’s begin. This time, I sat cross-legged…

“Wait a minute. “I have something very important to do.”

-what?

Baek Woo-jin’s expression suddenly became serious, and when even the darkness became tense, Baek Woo-jin’s mouth opened again.

“It’s been two days, right. Thunder is rumbling in my stomach. “Let’s eat and do it.”

-…

“Meet the matriarch.”

Moon Ju-young of the Black Sword Team entered the Baek family’s family hall and knelt in front of Baek Cheon-hwa and bowed his head.

“There is an incident that needs to be reported.”

Baek Cheon-hwa instructed Moon Ju-young to look into Baek Woo-jin, so what he would report would be about his youngest son.

“Let me tell you.”

“Master Woojin defeated Master Myeonghun.”

“…what?”

When Baek Woo-jin defeated Baek Myung-hoon, Baek Cheon-hwa thought that her ears were wrong. Or did Moon Joo-young change the names of the two?

“Master Woojin defeated Master Myeonghun.”

Moon Ju-young anticipated Baek Cheon-hwa’s reaction and said the same thing again.

“The youngest?”

“That’s right.”

Baek Myung-hoon is a swordsman who has already reached level 2, and Baek Woo-jin is a trainee who has not even felt mana yet. Because there was no grade, he was not qualified to be called a prosecutor.

However, it does not make sense that Baek Woo-jin, who was out of the grade, defeated Baek Myung-hoon, who was in the second grade, even if he had trained his body a little.

No, there is only one way. Inducing the opponent to let down their guard.

“Let me report.”

“At first, Master Myeong-hoon unilaterally beat up Master Woo-jin. Master Woojin was on the defensive, aiming for the moment when Master Myeonghun was off balance…”

Moon Joo-young told Baek Cheon-hwa about what happened behind Baekwijeon. Baek Chun-hwa just continued to listen with an expressionless expression.

“Heh.”

A smile with two meanings appeared on Baek Cheon-hwa’s face.

That smile contained pity for Baek Myung-hoon, who was defeated in an absolutely advantageous situation, and pride for Baek Woo-jin, who did not miss a single opportunity.

“What is Myung-Hoon doing now?”

“He went into his room and hasn’t come out since he woke up.”

“Tsk tsk. Is that really the case?”

Baek Cheon-hwa thought that Baek Myung-hun was stuck in the room. Because he is a timid guy, he will never move unless he is sure that Baek Woo-jin is weaker than him.

Even though he is his own son, he is truly a pathetic guy.

“What about Woojin?”

“The youngest master is also not coming out of his room.”

“What are you doing?”

“I don’t know exactly, but it seemed like he was practicing.”

“It’s training, so I guess I’ll be fine.”

Now that you have trained your body, it is time to learn your mana. I knew from birth that Baek Woo-jin’s mana sense was very low.

But seeing his changed appearance somehow made me look forward to it.

“I thought it would be boring for a while, but an interesting twist arose.”

Baek Cheon-hwa stroked her chin and then opened her mouth again.

“Call Myung-Hoon Baek.”

“yes!”

Moon Ju-young left the house without asking any questions. Baek Cheon-hwa smiled coldly as she watched Moon Ju-young leave.

“I’ll open the plate.”
