I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy

Episode 40 First Swordsman

[Zirka’s Sapphire Necklace]

This is a necklace that Artifactor Zirka personally made for his nephew, who is a spirit knight. It has an effect that helps with growth, so you can get additional benefits when practicing Auror or mana breathing.

Grade: Unique

Wearable conditions: None.

Mana sensitivity +10

4 major attribute sensitivity +10

5% additional mana is acquired when performing aura practice or mana breathing.

I was so shocked when I saw the options on the necklace that I almost dropped it. I really liked the options.

“Why this…”

I couldn’t figure out what Baek Eun-kyung wanted or what it meant as she disappeared after giving her a unique necklace with ridiculous options.

-This is not an ordinary item. The grade is unique, but if you look at the options, you can say it’s legendary. It will be of great help, especially to you who are growing up.

‘I know. That’s why my heart feels like it’s going to explode right now.’

Baek Woo-jin placed his hand on his left chest and looked blankly at the necklace options. It was a necklace that was truly perfect for someone who had recently eaten a spirit stone.

‘The mana and sensitivity options are no joke, but isn’t the ability to gain additional aurors the best?’

-okay. When combined with other options, the benefits will increase further.

Baek Woo-jin played with the necklace with a puzzled look. Just holding it, I could feel the cool energy from the jewels on the necklace.

-Your sister is so cool that you just threw away this unique item and walked away?

‘I don’t understand that.’

-Isn’t this meant as an apology?

‘I don’t think she’s that kind of person…’

In fact, I rarely encountered Baek Eun-kyung in my past life, so I don’t know her personality very well. All I know is that he has a huge hatred for demons and the strong, especially demons.

-Because I almost killed him and gave him a unique. If you actually get stabbed, doesn’t that mean you’ll be spraying Legendary? Do you want to give it a try?

‘You lost your mind this time.’

Baek Woo-jin waved his hand at Heuk-am and frowned.

‘If you get stabbed by that woman, you’ll immediately search for Legend or something.’

-Hehehe.

Darkness scoffed in front of Baek Woo-jin as if it was fun to tease him for the first time in a long time.

-Are you looking at gulbi? Stop watching and hug me. I wasn’t cursed.

‘Now that I think about it, this might not be a curse but a German spell.’

Baek Woo-jin leaned his back against the wall and looked at the necklace with strange eyes.

-Do poison?

‘The second sister is a person who only cares about the strong and the demons. This doesn’t mean it’s an apology, it just means that you’re interested in me.’

-Then…

‘It probably means that you should wear this necklace and become stronger quickly. I guess it means there’s something to use it for.’

The people that Baek Eun-kyung was interested in were Baek Seong-hyun and Baek So-hee. Now the attention has come down to myself. It should not be accepted unconditionally.

-So, are you saying we should grow up quickly and have a fight?

‘I don’t know that far. Because we never encountered each other in our past life. ‘I guess I could ask you something.’

-First of all, there are no other problems with the item. Put it on first.

‘I don’t know. I gave it to you to become stronger, so you should become as strong as you want. ‘I’ll think about it later.’

Baek Woo-jin smiled and put on the necklace. He looked back once and went up to his room.

Baek Eun-kyung appeared again in the empty lobby of Baek Yu-jeon.

Unlike before, a chill that made her shudder came out of her, and her cold eyes were like those of a wild animal that had found its prey.

“Finally, the sculpture…”

** As

soon as Baek Woo-jin entered the room, he sat cross-legged.

“I got something good, I should try it.”

-okay. It will definitely make a big difference.

Baek Woo-jin closed his eyes and began to breathe slowly. When my mind calmed down and I began to focus, I used Cain’s Auror exercises.

‘hmm!’

I could tell as soon as I started practicing. It was definitely different. A greater amount of mana flowed into my body than when I did the Auror exercises last night.

It’s not just the quantity. Because the grains of mana that could be felt were larger, higher quality auras could be created. It was the power of increased mana sensitivity.

“Whew…”

After completing one round of Auror exercises, Baek Woo-jin opened his eyes. His eyes contained the same joy he felt during Auror training.

-How was it?

“I almost lost my mind because the mana being absorbed suddenly increased. “I think it’s because the options overlap, so it seems like the Auror is 10% more instead of 5%?”

-That’s also thanks to the mana sensitivity you’ve gained so far. All of those things combined created a greater effect.

“Should I say that the aura accumulated there feels even thicker? It seems like the quality of Aurors has also improved.

-Accurate. As sensitivity increases, higher quality auras are created. As you grow, quality becomes more important than quantity.

While listening to the words of darkness, I touched the sapphire necklace around my neck. The person who gave it to me was suspicious, but the necklace itself was nothing short of a fortune.

-Anyway, congratulations. I got some decent items.

“That’s right.”

Baek Woo-jin laughed and was about to practice Aurora again when a knock was heard at the door. When I heard the light sound, I thought it was Jeon Jun-hyuk.

“come in.”

“I brought you a meal.”

Jeon Jun-hyuk had dinner in his hands. Baek Woo-jin didn’t come out until late, so it looks like he brought a meal with him.

“Just call me. “Thank you anyway

.” “No.”

Jeon Jun-hyuk smiled and placed dinner on the table.

“Howi Moon said he was going to take a rest after reporting to the Ministry of Public Administration and Security.”

“okay. There’s nothing to do today, so you go and rest. “I’ll clean this up.”

“Ah yes.”

Jeon Jun-hyuk only answered and held on to his smartphone without going out with the expression of a puppy that was afraid to poop.

“Do you have anything to say?”

“Ho, have you seen this?”

“huh?”

Jeon Jun-hyuk held out the smartphone he was holding in his hand. There was a scene in the screen showing himself and Song Ji-hoon facing each other.

“This is…”

“This is a video of you that was filmed today.”

When Jeon Jun-hyuk pressed play, a scene appeared where Song Ji-hoon, Seo Ji-hwan, and Kang Hoon left their weapons one after another. The three had humiliated expressions, while Baek Woo-jin had a relaxed expression.

“Look at the comments below.”

Jeon Jun-hyuk pushed the video down so Baek Woo-jin could see the comments.

-Song Ji-hoon, who views other talented people as bugs, makes that kind of facial expression? Hahahahahaha – Gwangdomoon, which everyone said was the strongest, is also being robbed by Shingeombaekga.

-Gwangdomoon wasn’t robbed, but Song Ji-hoon lost to Baek Woo-jin?

-Song Ji-hoon is the one who gave full support at Gwangdomun. Then you got robbed, right?

-Gwangdomoon and Phoenix heroes are not suitable for Shingeombaekga. Are the remaining three major guilds the only ones that can catch Baekga?

-Even Jeok Yeon-hwa of the powerful Jeok-ga could not defeat Baek Woo-jin.

-I wonder if he is the same person as he took on the boss at the youngest age and with the smallest number of people. What a shitty life…

– It wasn’t crazy that I caught a level 5 criminal by myself.

-If you take that weapon and sell it, how many houses will you own?

Song Ji-hoon, Seo Jin-hwan and Kang Hoon’s reputation was so bad that most of the comments were friendly to Baek Woo-jin. Even though they criticized the Baek family, there were very few people who criticized Baek Woo-jin.

‘Good.’

Separating oneself from Shingeombaekga was a desired phenomenon. The best results were obtained.

“Hmm.”

Jeon Jun-hyuk was smiling broadly as he read the comments as if he were Baek Woo-jin.

“Are you trying to show me this?”

Baek Woo-jin smiled when he saw Jeon Jun-hyuk looking happy.

“Young Master, I am full of praise. I’m so proud of everything. I really wanted to show you. “Are you too cocky?”

“How arrogant. thanks. “It definitely gave me strength.”

I meant it. As I read the comments, I felt like my already good mood would disappear. I also thought that I should try harder.

-Junhyuk and the others don’t know you too much. He’s really the craziest guy I’ve ever seen!

**

Toorururu.

The next day, when I was about to go to Geomgak, I received a call from Moon Ju-young.

“what’s the matter?”

[A person came who wanted to say thank you to Mr. Master.]

“Thank you?”

After taking down the multi-level guild, people came to me every day wanting to say thank you, but many of them were reporters or scammers, so I refused.

“I told you to refuse that.”

[The person who came today is someone I have met before. [The person who called you in the Regen area before…]

“Is your name Hong In-su?”

[you’re right. It’s him.]

Baek Woo-jin shook his head and chuckled. Actually, I thought it would come at least once.

“It will be in the garden in front of Baekwijeon. “Bring it to me.”

[I understand.]

Baek Woo-jin hung up the phone and sat down at the table in the garden.

-That crazy guy?

“I heard you came to say hello.”

-Well, I saved you twice. You must have been surprised. He might be paying attention to the informal language he used before.

“I called because I thought that was the case. “I don’t want you to feel burdened.”

I thought that Hong In-su would feel more at ease if I received a proper greeting, so I deliberately called him.

“I brought you here.”

About 5 minutes later, Moon Ju-young brought Hong In-su and a woman who appeared to be his daughter. Although he was tall, he had a cute face.

“young master! thank you.”

As soon as Hong In-su saw Baek Woo-jin, he lowered his head so much that it touched the ground.

“You have a daughter too, don’t do this.”

He went right over and helped Hong In-su up. He didn’t commit a crime, but he didn’t want to be greeted like this in front of his daughter.

“But…”

“Because it’s okay. “Sit down first.”

Baek Woo-jin gave the two people a seat across from them and sat down opposite them.

“Thanks to your hard work, I was able to escape that hellish place. Also, thank you so much for saving me before. And…”

Hong In-su stuttered and lowered his head every time he said thank you.

“The reason I spoke informally and pretended to be friendly before was because I really wanted to take care of the new person. sorry.”

It was as expected. Hong In-su was apologizing for treating him so friendly as if he were his younger brother. It was a completely unnecessary apology.

“I’m grateful once, but this is the second time my life has been saved, so I don’t know how to thank you.”

“You really don’t need to worry about speaking informally, and it’s because you got caught in a multi-level conversation. “There is no need to be so grateful.”

“Ah…”

“Rather, I’m sorry that I didn’t even see your face when you came before.”

When Baek Woo-jin fainted in the Regen area, Hong In-su and other talented people also came to visit Baek family. Unlike Jeok Yeonhwa, permission from Baekcheonhwa was not obtained.

-Why is it so normal?

‘Because he makes a good first impression. My heart goes out to you. I’m good at returning favors.

-You’re better at repaying grudges.

‘It pays off crazy well.’

I don’t know anything else, but my goal in life was not to suffer silently.

“Thank you anyway!”

Hong In-su lowered his head again. He said he was thankful to this extent, but Baek Woo-jin felt like it would be more of a burden to keep declining, so he accepted his thanks.

“My name is Hong Ara. “After my father, I also received great grace.”

His daughter, who was next to Hong Insu, also carefully lowered her head.

“Like I said, I got caught. You don’t have to be that grateful. “I’m serious.”

The emotions seeped into the eyes of the two father and daughter who heard Baek Woo-jin’s sincere voice. The two never thought that Baek Woo-jin would treat them so kindly.

“Hmm…”

Moon Joo-young also smiled. I felt like I had met the right person to serve. It was an atmosphere that made you smile with pride just by looking at it.

“Oh, I don’t know if we took too much time. “I’ll just leave.”

Hong In-soo checked the time and jumped up. The situation was changing so drastically that it made me laugh.

-hey! Baek Woo-jin!

‘Oh, I’m surprised. ‘What is it all of a sudden?’

Suddenly the darkness let out a deafening scream.

-That woman. Catch it!

‘What are you talking about all of a sudden?’

– Catch that woman!

‘What do you mean? Say it slowly and properly.’

-That woman has a constitution called a fighting spirit body.

‘Delayed vision?’

As Baek Woo-jin pondered over the name Tuhyeonjiche, dark words continued.

-The characteristic of the diaphanous constitution is that it excels at actual combat, so in my world, people with that constitution are given the title of ghost.

‘Then…’

-She has the qualities to become a swordsman.
