Chapter 58

Episode 58 New Sword Road (2)

< New Sword Path >

The time has come to walk a new path and head to a higher place. Open the door to the sword with your own choice.

Condition: Open the sword path by selecting a new sword attribute.

Quest acceptance benefit: During the quest period, the mastery and understanding of the selected swordsmanship attribute increases significantly.

Reward: 1000 point title.

‘It’s a quest to open a new sword road.’

-right. This means that you have learned all the basic sword techniques, so now you can move on.

‘It’s finally come.’

Baek Woo-jin nodded.

I thought it was strange that there was no change even though I opened all the basic sword skills, but now a new quest has appeared.

I read the contents of the quest again.

The content of opening the path to the attributes of your own choice was refreshing.

-The quest will be accepted only if you select one of the swordsmanship attributes.

‘It’s not easy to choose.’

-There are not just one or two attributes of swordsmanship, but there are many ways to incorporate those attributes, so it is natural that it is difficult to choose.

Baek Woo-jin could only unlock six of the many sword skills attributes.

It was a bit difficult to choose because there were still many sword skills left to learn.

-In order for you to reach 10,000 swords, you must ultimately be able to handle all the attributes of swordsmanship. Pick anything.

‘Still, there must be something that suits my current state.’

The attributes of the swordsmanship being used now are quick sword, strong sword, heavy sword, brain sword, straight sword, and empty sword.

There will be some attributes of swordsmanship that are easier to learn because they are linked to those attributes of swordsmanship.

-Then, it would be something like a modified sword, a fantastic sword, a Yugeom, a cut sword, and a big sword.

‘The alternating sword is change, the circular sword is creating an illusion with aura, and the Yu sword is a soft sword technique, and the absolute sword is cutting off the opponent’s sword skills, right?’

-right.

‘Are you saying that the flying sword is flying?’

-okay. In the future, when you reach the peak of Bigeom, you will be able to use Igigeeogeomsul, where you control the sword according to your will.

‘omg!’

Baek Woo-jin swallowed dry saliva.

Igigeo swordsmanship is one of the highest levels of swordsmanship in which one moves the sword according to one’s will.

I just thought I could use it once I reached a high level, but I had no idea that I needed to know about the secret sword.

-It is not something that can be achieved simply by learning the big sword. You need the highest level of swordsmanship attributes, so don’t drink kimchi soup first.

‘I know. ‘Can’t you imagine?’

Baek Woo-jin turned his head with a sullen expression and looked at the quest window.

‘Then a prosecutor’s office would be good. There is almost no swordsmanship that doesn’t involve changes.’

-The stool sword is not a bad first choice since you will be using it consistently.

‘Then I’ll choose change.’

[You have accepted the quest < The New Sword Path >.]

As soon as the selection was completed, the quest acceptance window appeared.

-The moment has finally arrived where only your effort is needed without any drawing.

An excited voice flowed from the darkness.

The current quest also provides benefits for accepting the quest, such as morale, but compared to the previous lottery, it is nothing new.

Seeing Baek Woo-jin’s hard work open for the first time in a long time made me feel so good.

‘Is it that good?’

Baek Woo-jin chuckled as he looked at the excited darkness.

Heukam’s goal was to make himself stronger, but he had a unique personality that did not like to become strong easily.

-Of course it’s good. You bastard of corruption. Just seeing you struggle makes me smile.

‘There is a clear reward, but I can tolerate as much trouble as I can.’

Baek Woo-jin laughed happily despite Darkness’s teasing.

In my previous life, I poured countless hours into swordsmanship even though there was no reward.

It’s so easy to put in effort when there are tangible rewards like now.

‘I need to just look at Hong Ara’s condition and start training right away.’

Baek Woo-jin headed towards Chilgeomgak at a leisurely pace.

-Hmm...

Seeing that, Darkness felt an uneasy feeling that he didn’t know what it was.

-It’s not like something happens and the quest is easily broken, right? no way?

**

The news that Baek Woo-jin won against Sung Si-hoon and the 36 members of the Ironclad Team quickly spread through various media.

-The group created by Zenon to be swordsman killers is the Ironclad, and it was completely destroyed at 1:37. After all, Shingeombaekga is a den of monsters.

-Did everything break at the age of 16? Take away the names of Sword Breaker and the Ironclad. Hahaha – no one survived because Zenon took pictures. Baek Woo-jin is different. different.

-Zenon is confirmed. LOL

People who were simply amazed by Baek Woo-jin’s skills were mesmerized for a while when they heard the new news that Baek Woo-jin was using spirits.

-Baek Woo-jin is a spiritist? Did you get shot in the head?

-that’s right. There is no way that Baek Woo-jin would be allowed to learn elemental arts unless Baek Cheon-hwa is crazy.

-It doesn’t even sound like a horse. Gura confirmed.

-Go home and talk nonsense.

At first, people could not believe the rumor that Baek Woo-jin was a spiritist.

However, the situation changed when interviews with people rescued by Baek Woo-jin began to appear on TV and in articles, and the association’s data was made public.

-Is this a true story? Wow, I’m really speechless.

I was so surprised that I released my aura for a moment without realizing it, but I felt like I even felt it.

‘Was there something going on?’

While Jang Deok-in was organizing the bookshelf, he couldn’t stop looking at Baek Woo-jin.

‘I don’t remember missing it.’

Baek Woo-jin recalled memories of his past life as he looked at the names of the swordsmen.

I read many swordsmanship books, but there was not a single swordsmanship book that I could digest properly.

The black ones were letters and the white ones were paper, so I had no idea what they were saying.

‘This book...’

Baek Woo-jin took out a book labeled Hwarak Swordsmanship Book.

-Is this a book you’ve read?

‘okay. I read it about 10 times in my previous life.’

I really wanted to learn it because it was a swordsmanship with rapid changes, but I remembered that even after reading it 10 times, I still couldn’t understand the contents of the swordsmanship book.

-Then read it. It will definitely be different from before.

‘okay.’

fluttering.

Baek Woo-jin turned the pages of the book.

[This swordsmanship book uses the basic changes in swordsmanship...]

Baek Woo-jin read the entire preface and then turned to the next chapter.

From here, text and pictures about real swordsmanship appear.

‘Uh...’

The writing and pictures written in the swordsmanship book were the same without any mistakes.

But there was something different.

It wasn’t the book that changed, but myself.

‘Huh...’

Baek Woo-jin realized right now what it meant to understand.

In my past life, the meaning of words that I didn’t know what they meant stuck in my head, and the pictures that I didn’t know why they were in that posture began to make sense.

The contents of the Hwarak swordsmanship book were alive and moving in Baek Woo-jin’s mind.

‘This is what geniuses see.’

In a past life, I overheard a conversation between my third older brother and my fourth older sister.

They said that you can get a grasp of swordsmanship to a certain extent just by looking at swordsmanship books, and the same was true for me now.

Thanks to the improved understanding of the five-star ability and the benefits of accepting quests, I was able to understand how changes were made just by reading the Hwarak swordsmanship book.

-That is the power of understanding. Until now, it didn’t matter because your swordsmanship wasn’t complicated, but from now on, your understanding will be very important.

‘Now I understand why you said you need to raise your five-star rating as well.’

-There is no need to learn everything about Hwarak Sword. Get only the changes you need.

‘okay.’

Baek Woo-jin nodded and concentrated his mind as he read the book.

In White Dragon, the only sound was the sound of him turning the pages.

**

‘That kind of concentration...’

Jang Deok-in felt goosebumps running down his spine when he saw Baek Woo-jin reading a book.

He was showing tremendous concentration, as if he were fighting a life-and-death battle against an enemy rather than a book.

His concentration was enough to make me understand how Baek Woo-jin became stronger so quickly.

fluttering.

When Baek Woo-jin realized that there were no more papers to turn, the light returned to Baek Woo-jin’s eyes.

“Haa....”

Baek Woo-jin let out a breath full of joy.

Even after he closed the book, he couldn’t get up from his seat for a while.

-How was it?

‘I’ll have to swing the sword to find out, but I think I can understand what the change is just a little bit. I have to try it right now.’

Baek Woo-jin put the book back and headed to the Chilgeomgak training hall.

All the lights were off, but I didn’t care and pulled out my sword.

Sigh!

Baek Woo-jin swung his sword while thinking about the changes he had seen in the swordsmanship book.

Because reading and swinging were different, Baek Woo-jin’s first sword was clumsy.

But it didn’t stop.

Receiving advice from darkness, I swung my sword, forgetting about time.

I tried to incorporate the changes in the Hwarak swordsmanship book that remained in my mind into my sword.

As the night passed and the sun rose and set again, Baek Woo-jin’s sword showed a colorful movement that was completely different from before.

Sigh!

Like splitting the setting sun into eight pieces, Baek Woo-jin’s sword contained the rapid changes contained in Hwarak’s swordsmanship book.

[Hyper-concentration is canceled.]

[The level of hyper-concentration has risen to level 2.]

A satisfied smile appeared on Baek Woo-jin’s lips.

Although it was thanks to the benefit of accepting the quest, he was able to incorporate the rapid changes in the Hwarak swordsmanship book into his sword in just one and a half days.

– This makes no sense!

The darkness completely froze when it saw Baek Woo-jin’s sword.

Baek Woo-jin learned the changes in the Hwarak swordsmanship three times faster than expected.

This time I couldn’t even call it luck because I achieved it on my own with great concentration.

-A monster...
