Episode 318 Great Swordsman (4)

“You caught him so quickly?”

Jeok Wei-jin’s eyes grew as big as a flower lantern. The Balrog played with himself even when he was not at full strength. It was not only surprising but also astounding that such a monster could be dealt with in such a short period of time.

‘I guess I’m in a different place now...’

The fact that the dungeon was completely melted gave me goosebumps even more than catching the Balrog. Baek Woo-jin seemed to have reached a level that could not even be compared to himself.

“Ah...”

Jeok Yeon-hwa lost strength and stood up, enduring the convulsions. I saw Baek Woo-jin walking calmly. His entire body was covered in dust, but there were no visible wounds. Tears poured out again when I saw that.

“How...”

“The dungeon was closed, so I just hit it and destroyed it.”

Baek Woo-jin shrugged his shoulders as if it was no big deal. It was a light tone of voice and gesture that always made me feel despair, but today I was so happy and grateful.

Jeok Yeon-hwa, suppressing her legs from shaking, approached and hugged Baek Woo-jin tightly.

“thank you. And I’m glad I’m back. “Really...”

I wanted to say hello properly, but all I could do was cry. I had no choice but to convey my true feelings in a tearful voice.

“okay.”

Baek Woo-jin gently hugged Jeok Yeon-hwa and patted her on the back to help her calm down.

-good! In times like this, wiping your mouth will only ruin the mood. They were hugging each other, and when the mood got warm, they turned their heads...

‘That’s not it. Look ahead.’

-huh? What is that... Wow!

The darkness followed Baek Woo-jin’s gaze and jumped when it saw the back of the red lotus flower.

-What kind of expression....

The expression of the enemy guard looking at this place was grotesquely twisted. The right side of his face was smiling awkwardly, and the left side was crumpled like a tin can. It looks like Count Ashura.

-Why are you like that?

‘I told you that you’re famous for being a fool.’

Jeok Wei-jin is a famous idiot.

The grace of saving his life and the anger of hugging his golden daughter seemed to be fighting inside him.

-Hahaha! So you’re making that face? Wow, there really is nothing normal around you.

‘Let’s have a little fun.’

Baek Woo-jin grinned and pulled Jeok Yeon-hwa into his arms and hugged her tightly.

“Huh!”

“haha.”

Jeok Wi-jin jumped up, coughing up blood, and Jeok Gyeong-hoon laughed as if it was fun.

“Over there...”

Hearing Jeok Yeon-hwa’s thin voice, I lowered my head and looked at her face.

-It’s bright red. You seem to have come to your senses now.

As the darkness said, Jeok Yeon-hwa’s face was as red as a watermelon. It seemed like he came to his senses when we just hugged him.

“Go go thank you!”

As soon as he let go of his arm, Jeok Yeon-hwa took a step back and lowered his head in succession.

Her eyes were wide open and spinning around. It felt like I had let go rather than coming to my senses.

“You said it was a non-debt. I will definitely repay my debt. sure. “I have to pay it back.”

His face is still red and he mumbles something incomprehensible. His face was so red that it looked like steam was burning above his head.

“Okay then, that’s enough for me! to home!”

Jeok Yeon-hwa spit out strange words and hurriedly ran away without even looking back.

“....”

Jeok Wi-jin looked at his daughter’s back as she ran away, even using footwork, and then turned his head to Baek Woo-jin.

“hmm.”

The foolish appearance that had appeared just now disappeared, and only the seriousness of a red family head remained.

“Baekgaju.”

He wiped the blood flowing from his mouth and bowed his head to Baek Woo-jin.

“Thank you so much.”

He bowed his head not because of the relationship between Red Wijin and Baek Woojin, but because of the relationship between the Shingeombaek family and the powerful red family.

“I owe you the thirty lives of the powerful enemy family, including me. “It’s probably a debt I can’t repay even if I repay it for the rest of my life.”

“it’s okay. “Didn’t the Lord of the Red House help me too?”

Baek Woo-jin shook his head. Thanks to the help of the Red Guards, my military strength grew and I was able to declare war on my father.

If he hadn’t come to New Year’s Day last year, my father would have ignored his declaration of war and would still be sitting on that throne.

“That was just something I did because I lost a bet, so it’s different from this one. “I will repay this debt somehow.”

“All right.”

Baek Woo-jin knew Jeok Wei-jin’s feelings, so he smiled and nodded.

“And...”

Jeok Wi-jin raised his lowered head and gritted his teeth. His expression changed once again and the relationship between Baek Woo-jin and Jeok Wi-jin returned.

“I want the relationship between that man and woman to be very humble. My daughter is still young and you don’t know the world either. There is also a saying that men and women are equal for seven years....”

“Why is men and women being equal for seven years of age?” They’re both 21 years old, so how young are they? “It’s already too late.”

Jeok Gyeong-hoon picked his nose and shook his head.

“Yeonhwa never had a relationship until she was that age because her father always made a fuss. Can you please let me go now? Are you going to make your child an old maid?”

“That...”

“I will live forever hugging a girl who is over 20 years old. And what did your father always say? The person who will take Yeonhwa must be stronger than him. It came out. “He’s stronger than his father.”

“Ugh, don’t let your words hurt me...”

“So let’s stop and let’s go.”

Jeok Gyeong-hoon sighed and grabbed Jeok Wei-jin’s arm.

“I say thank you and talk about Yeonhwa first after receiving treatment.”

“Oh, I haven’t answered yet...”

“Just go!”

Jeok Gyeong-hoon dragged Jeok Wei-jin by the arm and forcibly led him away, then turned around.

Baek Woo-jin stretched out his right hand and waved it, sweat dripping from his dark sword body.

-The only thing I really notice is....

“It’s not a tact, it’s intentional. “I didn’t cut down the Balrog with you for nothing.”

When cutting down the Balrog at the end, the reason he used the black sword instead of the Seolyeonggeom was to absorb the energy of the Balrog.

Since Balrog is also one of the demons, I thought that his energy could be absorbed into darkness.

-Oh, what a toxic guy. Take it! take it!

Darkness clicked its tongue and handed over Balrog’s fighting spirit. Deep speculation surged through the soul line connected to the guy.

Wooooow!

Baek Woo-jin accepted Balrog’s speculation by using Cain’s Oryeo practice and Beukmyeong Shingong simultaneously. Since it was an energy that I had already become accustomed to through Bukmyeong Shingong, speculation gradually built up in the Danjeon.

[Balrog’s fighting spirit has increased.]

[Balrog’s fighting spirit has increased.]

When he accepted all the energy given by the darkness, Balrog’s fighting spirit, which was only level 1, rose to level 3.

-Ugh! Ha, it’s 3 levels at once....

Darkness was scared and fell back.

‘Shit! ‘Did I give you too much?’

Even though only half of the absorbed Balrog energy was transferred, it reached level 3.

I gave half because I thought there would be more losses if the system intervened, but I feel like my stomach is turning as speculation rises by two levels.

“Is it just right?”

Baek Woo-jin smiled with satisfaction as he felt the spirit melting into his body.

“I need to take a test.”

He pulled out his sword and poured his energy into its body.

Quaaaaa!

A bright red spirit that seemed to have drawn the flames of the demon world burned on the sword body.

-Damn it!

Darkness let out annoyance without even realizing it. Although it was not as fierce as the Balrog showed at the end, it was threatening enough to be used in battle with the Absolute.

-It’s a really fucking martial art. Wow....

The combination of the Northern Myeong Shin Technique and the Yang Yi Heart Technique is a combination that makes me cringe the more I look at it. They were martial arts of thieves, worse than martial arts warriors, who took the strength that others had worked so hard to build.

Whoa!

Baek Woo-jin warmed up with the red-stained Seolyeonggeom and clearly observed the flow of speculation contained within it.

‘River width.’

The energy of Balrog’s fighting spirit was specialized in the art of strengthening the river. Like the Honwon Byeokryeokgi, it had its own advantages.

‘Come to think of it, Balrog was also good at cutting off my sword strikes.’

It was because of fighting spirit that Balrog easily cut off his sword strikes and created explosive power.

-Ugh, I want to watch a drama. I get angry when I see you.

The darkness waved its blade sharply and headed back towards the table.

“I’ll spoil the drama you watch someday.”

-what?

“no.”

Baek Woo-jin shook his head and grinned.

-Bland guy.

“Then train properly....”

Ding!

As I was about to practice fighting skills, a beep rang.

[You have completed the unexpected quest.]

“Huh? already?”

Baek Woo-jin widened his eyes. Since this was not an ordinary incident, I thought I would have to wait a few days to receive compensation, but the compensation came faster than expected.

He didn’t know, but this was natural. Because while Baek Woo-jin was sleeping, there was an uproar all over the world.

[You have completed the unexpected quest.]

[5000 reward points will be provided.]

[Surprising reward will be provided.]

[You have saved many lives and greatly impressed them.]

[You have brought extreme shock and respect to countless people. I gave it to you.]

[The sudden reward is converted to a reward for 10,000 swords.]

-Oh no!

Ignoring the screams of darkness, 10 cards of Mangeom appeared in front of my eyes.

“Hmm...”

Baek Woo-jin licked his lips and looked at the card before turning his head to Heuk-am.

“Darkness. What card...”

-Hmph!

Darkness closed its mouth tightly and waved its blade. It is an expression of the will not to say or do anything because of what has happened in the past.

‘How many times do you think I’ll get hit by you?’

How angry were you the last time Legendary came out with the character strokes of ‘Shut Up’? This time I won’t give that damn bastard any hints.

“Hmm...”

Baek Woo-jin walked up to the table and touched the tablet that Heuk-am was looking at, instead of using the card.

“Is it episode 8? “Then number 8.”

The episode of the drama that Heukam watched was episode 8. I grinned and chose the eighth card.

-hey! Wait a minute...

With a scream of darkness, the card flipped over and a deep red light burst out.

-Hey! You idiot!

“It’s darkness after all!”

Baek Woo-jin gave a thumbs up to the rioting Heo-am and checked the flashing card.

[Elixir has been selected.]
