Episode 329 Preston Castle (6)

“Huh....”

Sein scratched his palm with his fingernails as he watched Baek Woo-jin running towards the Kraken.

‘It wasn’t just the sword...’

I can use the walking technique to run on water, but it is impossible to run in the sea with strong waves like Baek Woo-jin. It was a frighteningly excellent walking technique that was on par with his swordsmanship skills.

Wooooow!

Baek Woo-jin raises his sword. As the endless river surged through the air, a black sea arose that covered the North Sea.

“ah!”

Sein’s eyes widened to the point where they were torn apart.

‘North Sea Hyeonhwan!’

I knew it as soon as I saw the swordplay unfolding. The herbal food he used was the Beihai Xuanhuan, the final season of the Northern Heavenly Sword.

Quaaaaa!

The black sea that Baek Woo-jin unfolded was very different from his own powerful North Sea phenomenon. The calm sea suddenly changed and caused a terrifying explosion.

Everything in this world seemed to be colored by the black sea he had created.

[Keeeeeeee!]

The Kraken, engulfed in the ink-colored waterspout and tidal wave, screams and melts. I could never have imagined that such a powerful monster would show such weakness.

“Ugh....”

“Ugh!”

At the sound of a groan coming from behind, I turned around and looked at the warriors.

“Bu Beihai Hyeonhwan....”

“Was that herbivorous like that?”

“It really looks like the sea. No, it’s the sea itself!”

The warriors’ faces were pale when they saw Baek Woo-jin’s North Sea phenomenon. He seemed even more surprised than when he saw the Kraken’s huge body.

‘I guess it’s a natural reaction.’

Sein nodded. Now that I have learned what the true form of Chosik, which I have practiced my whole life, is, it is natural to be so shocked.

Coo coo coo coo.

The black tsunami and waterspout that erased the Kraken slowly subside. Baek Woo-jin stood in front of him, stepping on the North Sea, which was turning blue.

“This is the real Northern Heavenly Sword. And that’s the path you have to take.”

“The path I must take....”

When I heard the words ‘the path I should take,’ my heart began to beat violently and my face became as hot as a furnace.

I felt like I could do anything if I could get the Northern Heavenly Sword that Baek Woo-jin showed me.

However, his sword was at a much higher level than his own sword. I was worried about whether I could really reach that sword.

“Can I wield a sword like that?”

Sein opened his mouth with a shadowy face.

“of course.”

Baek Woo-jin nodded softly and went down to the shore.

“Not only the Lord of the castle, but all the warriors here can change. “I will make it that way.”

“Ah...”

Sein placed his hand on his left chest. When I heard his words, my heart, which had quieted down, began to beat loudly again.

“thank you. Thanks to you, I made a decision.”

I turned around, feeling my heart beating. He took a step toward the soldiers who were looking at him and Baek Woo-jin.

“You must have felt with your eyes and heart the power of the true Northern Heavenly Mysterious Sword. The Northern Heavenly Sword that we had been learning was a swordsmanship without substance. I declare this in the name of the lord of Preston Castle! From this moment on, I throw away the faulty Northern Heavenly Sword!”

At Sein’s sudden declaration, the warriors’ eyes sparkled with blue.

Baek Woo-jin smiled as he looked at the determined appearance of the people and the embarrassed military personnel.

“Now you have taken the first step.”

**

After killing Kraken, Baek Woo-jin went to the hospital room where Dapple was.

“Master Shi!”

“lay down.”

Dapple, who was trying to force himself to get up, was laid down. The bones haven’t fully healed yet, and it’s still hard for a guy with internal injuries to try to move.

“The ground kept shaking and there was chaos...”

“The Kraken attacked.”

“Kk Kraken! Then he...”

“I took care of it, don’t worry.”

“also! Are you a teacher... Ugh!”

Deple shook his clenched fist and let out a groan.

“Please stay still.”

“Maybe it’s because I haven’t taken a break from training lately, but I feel itchy just lying down.”

“okay. It was evident that he trained hard. However...”

Baek Woo-jin continued with a playful smile.

“You’ve become very arrogant, imitating techniques I didn’t even teach you.”

“I’m sorry!”

Dapple hit his head on the bed.

“He told me to watch and learn, so I had no choice but to follow. In particular, Master’s swords are so cool...”

-They’re not that cool.

The darkness nodded its blade. Baek Woo-jin’s swordsmanship was spectacular, whether seen by those who knew swordsmanship or those who did not. These are sword techniques that anyone would want to try.

“To be honest, basic swordsmanship is excellent. Now there is no unnecessary stuff. However, the swords are messy. “If you had only used basic sword techniques, you might have been able to endure a little longer.”

“Ah...”

Dapple’s face darkened. I couldn’t think of what to say when I was scolded by Baek Woo-jin, whom I thought of as my teacher.

“So we’ll have to look more closely in the future.”

I raised my head when I heard Baek Woo-jin’s cheerful voice. He smiled and patted his shoulder.

“I will show you properly, so please follow along.”

“Oh yeah!”

Dapple smiled broadly and nodded his head.

“I will follow you even if I die! No, I will learn!”

“And I will take care of the alliance, so don’t worry.”

“uh? “Are you sure?”

“okay.”

Baek Woo-jin stood up with a confident smile.

Sein nodded quickly.

“I’ll go and talk to you today. “Let’s try it a few more times before that.”

She ran to the pillar again and operated the Beihai Xuanhuan.

-I’m excited.

‘I told you. She needed tangible accomplishments.’

I would have felt a much greater sense of satisfaction than hearing that I had grown verbally because the pillar had split.

-You too are a good teacher....

Ding!

[You have completed the quest.]

[Calculate the reward for the quest < True King of the North >.]

[6000 points will be awarded.]

[The title < Faith > will be awarded.]

Ding!

[Many people were astonished by your performance.]

[Many people were impressed by your swordsmanship.]

[An additional 6000 points will be awarded.]

[The title < Faith > will be converted to the legendary title < Faith >. ]

‘It’s finally here!’

Baek Woo-jin cheered as he saw the message that appeared in front of him.

-Oh, this....

‘You forgot, right?’

The quest took longer than expected and I think I had completely forgotten about the darkness.

-Then you won’t forget...

‘How could you forget? Knowing that this would happen, I taught the world’s people and warriors and told them to write the Beihai Phantasm on that pillar.’

-You bastard! You clearly said you taught it for me!

‘There’s that and this too.’

-Ah, such a devil....

Darkness stuck out its tongue as it looked at Baek Woo-jin. This guy taught Sein to complete the quest, not because of his own request. He’s a terrible guy.

-My impression! Give me my gratitude back!

My heart that was truly moved and grateful to Baek Woo-jin turned cold.

‘haha!’

-Stop laughing, you bastard!

“Woojin.”

While Baek Woo-jin was making fun of Darkness, Sein approached.

“yes?”

“Woojin, can you show me the North Sea Phenomenon? “I wanted to compare it to mine...”

“It’s not difficult.”

Because it felt good, I answered without hesitation.

“I’ll try it this way.”

Baek Woo-jin spread out a small Beihai Hyeonhwan on the other side of the pillar. The sea, much more vivid than the North Sea phenomenon unfolded by Sein, bloomed and then faded.

“As expected, you are amazing. “It’s different from me... huh?”

“huh?”

Baek Woo-jin and Se-in turned around at the same time as they heard a sound as if something was collapsing.

Coo coo coo coo!

The pillar in the center of the room split in half and collapsed.

“omg!”

“What the hell!”

Even though it was a perfect Beihai Hyeonhwan, it was written towards the opposite side of the pillar, so I don’t know why it split.

-It seems that no matter where you use the Beihai Xuanyuan in this room, the pillars end up splitting? Anyway, Preston, you stupid bastard....

“Huh!”

Baek Woo-jin While everyone in the dark world was panicking, the cracked pillar melted to the floor and a round hole opened. Inside the hole, there were stairs that could go down.

“stairs?”

“The stairs....”

“Didn’t you know?”

“yes. “I had no idea.”

Sein looked at the stairs in surprise as if he didn’t know either.

“Hmm...”

Baek Woo-jin licked his lips and looked down the stairs. I felt a cold yet hot energy from below.

“Let’s go down.”

“me too? “Is that okay?”

“In the end, it was Woojin who opened this door, not me.”

Perhaps because he broke tradition once, Sein did not hold back.

“All right.”

After getting her permission, I went down the stairs first.

“This is...”

– It was a report. It looks like he moved the treasures from the warehouse here.

The basement was about half the size of the previous room. Looking at the treasures packed in the room, it seemed like it was used as a treasury just as Darkness had said.

“Haa...”

Baek Woo-jin, who was looking around the report, turned his gaze to the far right ceiling. He sighed deeply and shook his head.

“come out.”

“yes?”

“Come out before you get lost.”

Instead of looking at the embarrassed Sein, he looked at the ceiling and opened his mouth again.

Fighting.

What looked like a large wrapping cloth fell from the ceiling, which seemed ordinary, and a man wearing a night suit came down.

“Woah, I can’t fool the prosecutor.”

Muyoung-gaek scratched the back of his head and laughed.

-Why is Muyounggaek here?

“I’m tired now....”
