Chapter 72

Episode 72. Changed appearance

“Buju Lord?”

The person standing behind Baek Woo-jin was Baek Cheon-woong, the head of the family.

“I came to kill you on purpose, but did I get in your way?”

“no.”

Baek Woo-jin shook his head.

‘You didn’t know either?’

-No way. I didn’t say anything because I had no intention of attacking.

The darkness answered as if it was no big deal.

‘I still have a long way to go. Not even a trace...’

-How far is it? The author’s level is late 8th grade. What you notice is even stranger.

Darkness cut Baek Woo-jin off as if to stop him from talking nonsense.

“Is that the child that Sohee tried to take by force?”

“That’s right.”

“Definitely an amazing talent. “I understand why Sohee tried to take me by force.”

Baek Cheon-woong figured out Hong A-ra’s talent just by watching her brief sparring.

“Can you give me a moment?”

Baek Cheon-woong turned his head from Hong A-ra and looked at Baek Woo-jin.

“of course.”

Baek Woo-jin handed over the training sword to Hong A-ra and followed Baek Cheon-woong.

-Why are you calling me?

‘I don’t know either.’

In fact, the most difficult person in the Baek family to identify is Baek Cheon-woong.

It seems like he wants to change the family to something similar to his own, but I can’t tell if he’s sincere or if he’s just aiming to become the head of the family.

“Mission in Yongin. “It was really great.”

“Did you know my mission?”

“I am not a scarecrow at all.”

“sorry. “That’s not what I meant.”

“It’s a joke. “You don’t have to take it so seriously.”

Baek Cheonwoong smiled slyly.

“You can see how much effort and effort they must have put into dealing with the enemies without harming the hostages.”

“Not to that extent.”

“No! What you did was close to impossible. Even if you were stronger than your grade, you would have had a lot of difficulties. “I can’t say anything other than it’s amazing.”

Baek Cheon-woong’s eyes were sparkling, as if he was touched by Baek Woo-jin saving the people.

It wasn’t an act, it was an expression of genuine emotion.

-The great thing is not this guy. It’s me.

‘Of course.’

It is true that he thought about it and went through hardships to save people, but the person who played the biggest role was the dark secret.

“I really wanted to praise you for saving everyone in your own way, completely different from the Baek family’s way.”

“thank you.”

Baek Woo-jin slightly bowed his head to Baek Cheon-woong.

-Baekga’s way?

‘You know that. ‘Ignore hostages and only kill enemies.’

Baek Tian-hwa had instructed the Baek family’s swordsmen to kill the enemy unconditionally without taking hostages or negotiations.

“I am. In the past and now, I didn’t like this family’s methods. So I wanted to change it.”

Baek Cheon-ung looked at the sky with empty eyes and continued speaking.

“But it was beyond my power. So I tried to leave the family. “To a place where no news from the Baek family can be heard.”

“Ah...”

Baek Cheon-woong was right.

In his previous life, he did not exist in the family at this time.

He disappeared without even telling me where he had gone.

“But after seeing you shining on the family these days, my mind changed. “It gave me hope to see you outperform other prosecutors and yet be considerate of people.”

Baek Cheon-woong continued speaking with a smile filled with anticipation.

“I never imagined that my family’s swordsman would earn the proud title of ‘Hyeopgeom’. “I thought you could bring change to this family that I could not.”

Baek Cheon-woong was prouder of the title Baek Woo-jin earned than anything else.

-You said this the last time we met, right?

‘okay.’

Baek Cheon-woong was saying something similar to last time.

He seemed to sincerely want to change the family for the better.

“There is no need to feel burdened. “I just don’t want you to give up what you want to think and do because of family rules or opinions like you are now.”

Baek Cheon-woong tapped Baek Woo-jin on the shoulder.

His expression was full of pride in Baek Woo-jin.

“If there is anything you need my help with, please let me know at any time.”

“The competition for succession has begun. Is it okay for you to do this, Deputy Head?”

“I’m just giving you extra credit. “Your father won’t mind either.”

Baek Cheon-woong smiled as if he had nothing to worry about.

“Are you really going to help me? “Anything?”

“I’ll help you with anything as long as it doesn’t go beyond the prosecutor’s agreement.”

Baek Woo-jin clenched his fists in response to Baek Cheon-woong’s firm answer.

“I’ll say it again, no matter what happens, don’t give up and push forward according to your will. “For that, you can use me as a stepping stone.”

Baek Cheonwoong gave a small wave of his hand and left Geomgak.

‘How did you see it?’

-You know because you saw that person’s eyes. It was 99% sincere.

‘What about 1%?’

-He must be a conman who is good enough at acting to fool you and me.

‘That means there is little chance of that happening.’

I neither intended nor expected to receive help from Baek Cheon-woong.

‘I can’t believe an 8th grade swordsman is standing behind me...’

After completing this mission, not only did I gain tremendous fame and goodwill, but I also gained the one-sided trust of the Bugaju.

**

Sigh!

Hong Ara’s horizontal slash cut off the head of the goblin that was trying to run away.

She was decisively and quickly killing the monster.

‘You’re doing much better than expected.’

Baek Woo-jin used the Sleeping Dragon Spirit and was following Hong Ara while wearing Rapor’s cloak.

-You and I taught that way, so of course you have to do well. Also, is that guy’s talent ordinary?

‘Still, it’s a dungeon with a boss. I said I would go alone. ‘I’m worried.’

-That guy has the ability to chew up even a boss. You’re stronger than when you went to the first dungeon.

‘Because it’s my first time. I’ve been there. Next time, I won’t come either.’

-There was no need to come even now. You bastard!

‘What are you doing with your arms outstretched?’

Baek Woo-jin followed Hong A-ra, ignoring the words of darkness.

“Kiaak!”

“Kaaak!”

Three goblins appeared in front of Hong Ara.

“Sigh!”

Without panicking, Hong Ara cut down two goblins at the same time with her sword technique and dealt with the remaining goblins with a vertical cut.

‘Well done!’

-You can clearly see how you will raise your child when you have a child later. see.

The darkness drooped its blade as if it was tired of Baek Woo-jin’s reaction.

Susssseu.

While Hong Ara was taking care of the goblin’s magic stone, two level 2 swordsmen appeared from the bushes.

One had a snub nose and the other had a scar on his cheek.

“what!”

“Huh, the goblin we were aiming for was stolen?”

The swordsmen glared at Hong Ara while kicking the goblin corpse.

“Steel?”

“Is this your first time in a dungeon? Don’t you know your seat? seat?”

“Where are you going?”

Hong A-ra’s face turned red, probably because she was embarrassed.

“We said we ate this direction. “You have no manners.”

“Even if you hunt, you have to protect what you protect.”

“sorry.”

Hong A-ra lowered her head, wondering where the spirit she had when catching the monster had gone.

“I didn’t know there was such a thing as a position. “I’ll go somewhere else.”

“Tsk then, should I give you that magic stone too?”

“What is that...”

“This monster was originally ours. “Of course I have to give it to you, right?”

The snub-nosed swordsman waved his hand as if to hand over the magic stone.

‘No, that bastard...’

-Who dares that scum!

Heukam, who told Hong Ara to stop worrying, was more excited and angry than Baek Woojin.

‘You’re just looking at me lightly and starting a fight.’

There is no such thing as a place in a dungeon.

When they saw that Hong A-ra was alone, they acted unreasonably.

– Baek Woo-jin. What are you doing! Don’t hit that bastard in the back!

‘Because I’m not here.’

-What does it matter? You and my student are being bullied by those damn bastards!

Hongah was like a disciple to Heukam.

I was being attacked by scum in the first dungeon and I couldn’t help but feel angry.

“Ah, I get it.”

Hong Ara sighed and took out the magic stone.

I know it doesn’t make sense, but I didn’t want to cause trouble.

-ah! I think I ate sweet potatoes! I feel like I’m going to die of frustration. You go out and bust the backs of those bastards. You’re good at that!

The darkness was almost on the verge of rampage.

“I’ll go.”

“okay. “Don’t even come here.”

Hong Ara turned around to go in the other direction.

“I guess I learned it from some idiot so I can steal without even knowing the basics. Anyway, kids these days...”

Hong A-ra stopped walking at the sarcastic sound coming from behind her.

Her eyes sank as coldly as frost.

“What did you just say?”

Hong Ara turned around and returned to the prosecutors.

A cold energy flowed from her body.

“what?”

“What did you just say?”

“How dare you speak informally!”

“Ah, what kind of idiot taught you that? Are you angry about this? But what can you do...Kwaaaa!”

Hong A-ra punched the snub-nosed man in the mouth with his fist.

Pop!

The sound of a stone breaking was heard and the snub-nosed man’s teeth were pulled out.

“You crazy bitch!”

“The one who taught me is not one who should be insulted by the likes of you.”

Hong A-ra glared at the prosecutor with fierce eyes.

“If you tease me one more time, I will rip your mouth off and break the back of your head.”

Not only the prosecutor but also Baek Woo-jin and Heuk-am opened their mouths at Hong A-ra’s cruel words.

‘uh...?’

-cider!
