Chapter 102

Episode 102 Island in the East Sea

“Glacia?”

Glacia, who woke up from the ice, was covered in blue fluffy fur.

A shining blue crown stood on top of its head, and its tail was divided into nine stems.

It was small and cute, but the cold and light radiating from its entire body made it mysterious.

“Tweet!”

Glacia looked at Baek Woo-jin with her blue eyes and approached him at a slow pace.

-Huh!

The sight of Glacia rubbing her head against Baek Woo-jin’s leg and smiling heartily captured even the darkness.

“Hmm...”

Baek Woo-jin tilted his head as he saw the cold flowing from Glacia’s head.

“What does this guy look like? “It has a sharp beak. Is it a hawk or an eagle?”

-Looking at you this cute, I don’t think you’re that kind of person.

“They’re all cute when they’re babies.”

-I don’t think you were cute.

“Noisy.”

Baek Woo-jin took out his smartphone and searched for baby birds, but that kind of appearance did not appear anywhere.

“Stop staring and talk. Have you ever seen a guy like that?”

-Hmm, it’s different from that guy, but I’ve seen something similar.

Darkness, which had been staring at Glacia blankly, stepped back as if embarrassed.

“what is that?”

-It’s Phoenix.

“ok?”

Baek Woo-jin made an absurd expression.

Phoenix is the spirit of fire.

I wondered if this was the phoenix for Glacia, who has the attribute of ice.

-I only saw Phoenix briefly when he came back from the egg, so it’s not accurate. However, like that child, I clearly remember the tail being divided into several branches.

“Wait a minute, Tails?”

Baek Woo-jin looked at Glacia’s drooping tail and remembered the fantastic bird he knew.

I searched again on my smartphone and opened my mouth.

“Bo Phoenix?”

Baek Woo-jin looked at the picture of the phoenix and then at Glacia.

Although the color was the exact opposite, it was not strange to say that it was the baby of a phoenix, with the crown erected on its head and its shiny multi-pronged tail.

-The multi-pronged tails erected on top of the head are also similar. What were you thinking when you called that guy?

“I prayed to Ignis that he wouldn’t be pushed out unilaterally...”

There was no big wish.

Since Ignis is fire and Glacia is water, I just wanted a strong guy who wouldn’t be pushed too far by Ignis.

-Did the wind and your monster-like sensitivity plus the power of the spirit stone create that appearance?

“I think so.”

The description of the feather said that Glacia’s abilities and temperament varied depending on its owner.

The reason why Glacia looked like this was clearly because of her own wishes.

-You will find out what it will look like later, so sign the contract first.

“That’s right.”

Baek Woo-jin grabbed Glacia’s small wings and handed over her water sensitivity.

“Tweet!”

Glacia made several pleasant sounds and conveyed her energy to Baek Woo-jin.

Chiiing!

A white thread came out from Baek Woo-jin’s heart and Glacia’s heart and tied a knot, completing the contract.

-How about at least giving that guy a name?

“name?”

-Since it is a newborn, it would be better to give it a name rather than calling it Glacia.

“You other spirits didn’t care much about their names or anything else.”

-He’s cute.

“Ignis is cute too?”

-Is a dragon that cries and eats chocolate cute?

Darkness twisted its body as if to stop talking nonsense.

“It’s a name...”

Baek Woo-jin looked at Darkness and Glacia for a while and then nodded.

“I remembered.”

-If you call me Chirp instead of Chew Chew, I will kill you.

“It’s not like that. I think this guy’s adult body might be a phoenix or phoenix. “It was a good name.”

-I’m anxious, but tell me.

“How about snow ice? “It feels similar to your name.”

-Hmm...

Just like his name, the word order was good and the bright and cool feeling wasn’t bad.

“You’re going to be a snowflake from now on.”

“Jeak!”

Glacia seemed to like the name and cried the loudest she had ever cried.

“It looks like he likes it...”

When Baek Woo-jin tried to pet Glacia, who had now become snow ice, a cold feeling began to gather.

The thick, concentrated cold surrounded the snow ice and formed eggs of ice.

-This is the same as when I gave Ignis a name! No way...

Darkness looked at the ice ball filled with cold with mesmerized eyes.

Absolutely!

After a while, the ice beads broke and snow ice appeared.

It was still small and cute, but its tail grew longer, its fur became darker, and its eyes sparkled like ice.

“You did a great job this time too. “I don’t know if you’re going to a place where there’s trouble or if you’re causing trouble.”

“....”

Baek Woo-jin said nothing and looked at Baek Tian-hwa quietly.

“Were you able to summon Flame Dragon and Earth Reno from the beginning?”

“Is that possible? This is a power I gained by chance while practicing elemental magic. “I am not good enough, so there are many limitations in using them.”

“Is it possible that the wind spirit also summons a special person?”

“As you know, my wind spirit is a mid-level spirit, Jin. “Nothing special.”

Because lies and truth were mixed, Baek Woo-jin’s expression was extremely calm.

-You can really be an actor. How dare you tell a lie and not tremble?

‘I’m not saying this openly because the truth is mixed in.’

-But why are you lying?

‘My father will keep testing me. Since it is impossible to hide one’s power, it would be better to view elemental magic as weak.’

Baek Woo-jin was thinking about what would happen next without letting down his guard, saying that he had overcome the crisis and gained a lot.

“Did you know that the minotaur uses peer when it appears?”

“I didn’t know.”

“Then how did you prepare?”

“Because I was on the outskirts, I was able to step back and take a closer look at the cracks. Thanks to that, when the Minotaur appeared, I was able to use the Aurors and withstand the peerage.”

“What was the feeling of speculation that you experienced directly?”

Baek Cheon-hwa nodded slightly and asked a new question.

“It felt like I was fighting not a monster, but a warrior with strong auras. Although it was difficult, I felt happy while fighting.”

Baek Woo-jin spoke honestly about the feelings he felt while fighting the Minotaur.

“It was fun?”

The corners of Baek Cheon-hwa’s mouth rose.

Feeling joy while fighting a strong being is a feeling that only a warrior who has reached the highest level can feel.

It seemed that the youngest son had finally entered the path of becoming a proper warrior.

“What was the last linked sword technique you used?”

“It is an immature swordsmanship that is not yet perfected.”

“The sword technique that decapitated the Minotaur hasn’t been perfected yet?”

“Because the place I am looking at is high.”

“ha ha ha!”

Baek Cheon-hwa hit the handle of the chair and burst out laughing.

The feelings of admiration for Baek Woo-jin that had been hidden deep in my heart came back to me.

“Very good! “Not settling for the present is a great attitude for a warrior.”

Baek Cheon-hwa rolled up the corners of her mouth and praised Baek Woo-jin.

‘It’s becoming more and more like an object.’

Baek Cheon-hwa looked down at Baek Woo-jin with a satisfied expression.

The youngest’s disposition and power seemed to be reminiscent of his own youth.

I was satisfied because it seemed like a proper bowl was being completed.

‘Now I won’t be killed if I send them there.’

Baek Tian-hwa made up his mind and nodded.

“I will give you a mission early next year.”

“What kind of mission...”

“It wouldn’t be fun if I told you already. However, unlike before, it won’t be easy.”

-It hasn’t been particularly easy until now. Why are you doing that?

As the darkness said, the missions given by Baek Cheon-hwa were not simple ones.

If there wasn’t darkness or I was lazy in my efforts, I would have died several times.

“Until early next year, forget that you are stronger than your peers and train and carry out your missions with all your might.”

Baek Tian-hwa smiled coldly.

“If you make a mistake, you may not be able to return to this land.”

* * *

“Hmm....”

Baek Woo-jin frowned as he watched the medical swordsman do his personal training.

“What kind of mission is this?”

-Am I Ari?

“Ugh.”

Baek Woo-jin felt a bitter taste on his tongue.

More than two weeks had passed since I met my father, but it was difficult to predict what mission he would give me.

-If it’s early next year, there’s a lot of time left. Just practice.

‘That’s natural. There is a world of difference between knowing the content and not knowing it.’

-You can’t think of anything at all?

‘There are a few. The first is exploring the Regen area, the second is conquering a new dungeon, and the third is assassination. And I think the fourth one is the most likely, but maybe....’

“Master!”

When Baek Woo-jin was about to tell Heuk-am the fourth thing, Moon Ju-young came running with an urgent expression.

“What’s so urgent?”

“Did you know that an island has emerged in the East Sea?”

“island?”

“There was chaos two days ago when a small island appeared.”

“I’m sorry, but I had no idea.”

I didn’t know that the island had come up because I was so focused on the mission my father had mentioned.

-An island appeared? Did a volcano erupt?

‘No, the island suddenly appeared. You can think of it as a crack in the sea.’

Just as a crack appears in the land, an island appears in the sea, and an abnormal phenomenon appears where sea monsters gather on top of it.

“I guess conquering that island is my next mission.”

“That’s right. But there’s one more mission...”

Moon Juyoung swallowed dryly and held out the mission sheet.

When Baek Woo-jin saw the mission statement, his pupils grew as big as a flower lantern.
