I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy

Episode 28 It is best to break the trap (5)

Baek Woo-jin entered Gajujeon under the guidance of Moon Ju-young.

Bai Tianhua has not arrived yet. Except for Baek Yeon-hwi, who was on the outside, and Baek Eun-kyung, who was facing the wall, all the immediate family members were seated in a row.

I looked at Baek Seon-ah. She pretended not to know anything and just looked ahead. He gave Baek Sun-ah a cold smile and stood next to Baek Myung-hoon.

“Ugh…”

Baek Myung-hoon noticed Baek Woo-jin next to him and moved one step to the side. Baek Ho-jung glared at Baek Myung-hoon, but didn’t say anything.

-What is this call?

‘It’s because of me.’

-Not even an hour has passed since you arrived home?

‘Stupid Baek Seon-ah, I don’t know, but my father knew about this from the beginning.’

-So you knew you could die and didn’t care?

‘My father is Baek Cheon-hwa, the head of the Baek family. He is that kind of person.’

Darkness could not understand the current situation. It’s a really twisted house.

– Didn’t you become interested in me because you showed off your various activities recently?

‘It’s true that I’m interested, but it’s just interest. ‘Because I am not a child that my father regrets so much.’

-I don’t understand.

‘The first brother, second sister, and third brother are old enough and have monster-like strength beyond their years. Even if I were to disappear, there wouldn’t be much regret. That’s why I left it.’

-Letting it go means…

‘Will I be able to overcome the crisis that comes from outside? ‘I was testing whether the child was worth investing in.’

-her!

The dark aura of intense emotions fluctuated greatly.

-I get angry when I see my father or my family. It’s a family with blood, but even a guild can’t do it!

‘That’s why I become the head of the family. Either change this fucking family. ‘I have to destroy it completely.’

I haven’t decided yet, but whatever happens, I will change this cold-hearted family.

Rattling.

The door opened and Baek Tian-hwa came inside.

“Meet the matriarch!”

The immediate superiors and guards knelt and bowed their heads to show respect.

Coo coo coo coo coo.

Baek Cheon-hwa headed to his seat without saying a word. As he passed by, a huge, cold air wave hit everyone. It’s not like I’m intentionally giving off momentum. It was just an uncomfortable feeling flowing out with force.

“Ugh….”

Baek Myung-hoon’s head fell to the ground, weighed down by the force.

“Hmm…”

Baek Woo-jin clenched his fists and withstood Baek Cheon-hwa’s momentum.

“Raise your head.”

A low voice flowed from the mouth of Baek Cheon-hwa, who was sitting in the head of the household.

“Baek Seon-ah, Baek Woo-jin. “Please come forward.”

“yes.”

Before Baek Cheon-hwa finished speaking, Baek Woo-jin and Baek Seon-ah moved to the center.

“Baekseon.”

“yes. “Matriarch.”

“Tell me what you did wrong.”

Baek Seon-ah could not answer Baek Cheon-hwa’s question and lowered her head. She bit her lip until it bled.

“Are you deaf? “I told you to speak.”

Baek Tian-hwa’s voice became smaller, but his momentum became even greater. Baek Seon-ah could not bear the force and trembled.

“I’m sorry!”

Baek Seon-ah immediately fell to her knees and hit her head on the floor until blood burst out. The fact that my father appeared like that meant that he knew everything. If you lie here, you could really die. The truth had to be revealed.

“We adjusted the mission to kill Woojin. “I gave Woojin the task of becoming a new sword and ordered the accompanying prosecutor to attack him.”

“Is that all?”

“After that, they tried to invade the assassin and make it seem like the prosecutors and Woojin were together.”

“Is that all?”

“This is really it!”

Baek Seon-ah hit her head on the ground once again. The blood that burst from her forehead soaked the floor.

Coo coo coo coo.

Even though Baek Seon-ah revealed everything, Baek Cheon-hwa’s momentum did not loosen. He seemed even more irritated.

“Baek Woo-jin.”

“yes!”

Baek Woo-jin’s expression did not change at all even after hearing Baek Seon-ah’s words. I only looked at Baek Cheon-hwa with emotionless eyes.

“What is Baek Seon-ah’s fault?”

Baek Woo-jin looked at Baek Seon-ah, who was shaking with her head down, and then answered.

“It didn’t work out.”

“You didn’t succeed?”

“It’s your fault that you couldn’t kill me even after using every possible tactic.”

Baek Woo-jin’s words made the entire atmosphere of the family hall feel heavy. It felt like I was in an alpine area and it was difficult to breathe.

“Uhm…”

Baek Ho-jung and Baek Myung-hoon swallowed their moans as if they couldn’t believe it.

“….”

Baek So-hee, the fourth child, stayed still without any change in expression, and Baek Seong-hyeon, the third child, frowned as if he did not like it.

“Kkkkk….”

It was Baek Cheon-hwa’s laughter that broke the heavy silence.

“That is correct.”

Baek Seon-ah’s whole body trembled as if she had been given chills by Baek Cheon-hwa’s voice. Baek Cheon-hwa’s fierce spirit disappeared in an instant.

“It is your fault for not being able to finish the job even after borrowing the power of your superiors, using a hidden swordsman, and calling in a prepared assassin. “Baekseon.”

“Ugh….”

Baek Seon-ah groaned, scratching the floor with her fingernails at Baek Cheon-hwa’s dry voice.

“Then do you know what to do?”

“It’s revenge. “Revenge for the sister who touched me first.”

“Can you do it?”

“Unable to.”

Baek Woo-jin answered right away without hesitation. Before Baek Cheon-hwa opened his mouth again, Baek Woo-jin continued.

“now!”

“‘For now’? “Khahahaha!”

Baek Cheon-hwa exploded with a roar that shook the building. Baek Myung-hoon, who could not bear it, fell down holding his ears, but Baek Woo-jin maintained a calm posture without moving a single inch.

“Hehehe….”

Baek Cheon-hwa really liked the youngest’s answer. He overcame crises on his own and knew how to distinguish between what he could do and what he could not do. He was a wise and cunning guy.

“Seon-ah is a swordsman who reached level 5 a while ago and also has her own sword belt. “You mean you can still win?”

“As I said, it’s impossible now. But given time, you can win.”

“You’re cocky. But I like it.”

Baek Cheon-hwa rested his chin on his right arm. He looked at Baek Woo-jin and Baek Sun-ah once in a while. I made up my mind and nodded.

“Baekseon.”

“Yes….”

“We will convert the 20 prosecutors from the Agamdae (牙劍隊) that you have into independent prosecutors.”

The current number of members of Ageomdae, owned by Baek Seon-ah, is 55. Changing 20 of them to independents was a huge punishment, equivalent to eliminating 2/5 of her forces.

“Oh father! that!”

“Secondly, I am ordering you to be confined for nine months.”

“9 9 months….”

“I gave my order.”

“I will obey your orders.”

Baek Seon-ah answered with her fists shaking.

‘It’s 9 months, so it’s more salty than I thought.’

I thought it would take about a year to build the headwall, but it took less time than expected.

“The headwall starts now.”

The swordsman of the Black Swordsman behind Baek Cheon-hwa walked over and grabbed Baek Seon-ah’s arm. Contact with the outside world is prohibited and sent directly to Myeonbyeok-dong.

“You’re the youngest. 9 months is short. “You better not think you won.”

Baek Seon-ah spoke with a sticky, murderous tone.

“that’s right. 9 months is short. But it could be too long and break my sister’s head.”

Baek Woo-jin said, laughing at Baek Seon-ah, who was being dragged away by both arms.

“You bird…”

Baek Seon-ah was dragged away by the prosecutors of the Black Swordsman without being able to utter the last word.

“Baek Woo-jin.”

“yes.”

“9 months will be enough, right?”

Baek Woo-jin looked up at Baek Cheon-hwa, who was amused by this situation, and gave an answer that was different from his true feelings.

“That’s enough.”

**

“Huh…”

After returning from the Gaju match, Baek Woo-jin lay down on the bed and let out a sigh of regret.

“Can you catch up with Baek Seon-ah in 9 months?”

-Generally, it’s impossible.

“Baek Seon-ah is not the end….”

Baek Woo-jin muttered, scratching his chin.

-What do you mean it’s not the end?

“My father told me. “Baek Seon-ah borrowed the power of her superiors.”

-So you’re saying there was someone who helped target you?

“okay.”

-Why didn’t your father tell you who it was?

“It’s obvious.”

Baek Woo-jin responded by hitting the sofa with his palm.

“I’m telling you to defeat Baek Seon-ah and find her yourself.”

-Is that also a test?

“It’s a test, and since you messed with me while you were sleeping, I’m going to find you and destroy you. “I have to give the back of my head a kiss.”

-Why do you like talking in the back so much?

As the darkness spoke, a quiet knock was heard.

“brother?”

Baek Sung-hyun was standing in front of the door with an awkward expression.

“Woojin. What on earth happened? “I went on a mission and what happened….”

Baek Seong-hyeon was unable to figure out what happened because he had just returned from a mission.

“I sparred with Hojoong and won. After that…”

Baek Woo-jin briefly told Baek Seong-hyeon about the situation so far.

“So what are we going to do from now on? “9 months is short.”

Baek Seong-hyeon spoke in a voice full of worry.

“I have to train.”

“Fencing is swordsmanship, but Seon-ah has many swordsmen to follow. “I will help you, so how about reconciliation?”

“That’s not allowed.”

Baek Woo-jin’s firm words stopped Baek Seong-hyeon’s hand.

“That can’t happen while your father is watching. Plus, I almost died one-sidedly. Even if my sister apologizes, I have no intention of accepting it.”

“Whew…”

Baek Seong-hyeon sighed and nodded.

“okay. You almost died for no crime. “I’m sorry for not thinking about your feelings.”

“no. Thank you for your concern.”

“If you need anything, please let me know anytime. “I’ll help you with anything.”

“thank you. “You must have had a hard time, too. Go and rest.”

“okay.”

Baek Seong-hyeon returned with a sad and worried expression.

-I can see your brother is embarrassed.

“You must be thinking that I have changed. “Actually, nothing has changed.”

Baek Woo-jin sat on the sofa with a bitter smile.

“Just say what you said earlier. “What’s wrong with Joo Yang-hwa?”

-It was said that there is a proper way to use Jooyanghwa.

“How to use it properly?”

-okay. If you take it as is, it increases the resistance of the four major attributes, but if you use the method I know, it also increases mana sensitivity and auror resistance.

“Are you sure?”

I was scared and got up from my seat. The existence of such a method was not known even 10 years later.

“What is that method?”

-Use the Aura to turn the petals into powder.

“Are you saying that if I eat the Juyanghwa made like that, my mana sensitivity and aura resistance will increase?”

-Yes.

“crazy!”

He immediately brought the bowl and placed it on the floor. After putting a very thin layer of aura on my hand, I took the petals of the Chinese herbal flower one by one.

-The intensity is good. Melt all parts of the leaf with Aura. Be careful not to burn it.

“okay.”

While adjusting the intensity of the aura so as not to burn it, the petals of the marigold were turned into powder.

-Now eat that powder.

“like this?”

-Then eat it as is. Are you going to mix it with rice?

“If you eat it in powder form, you may cough and vomit, or it may remain in your bowl. “Can’t I drink it with water?”

-I’ve never tried it, but it doesn’t matter. Because it was completed by melting it with aura.

“okay.”

I thought it would be a waste if there was even a single piece of juyanghwa powder left, so I brought boiling water and poured it in.

Whoa!

Even though I didn’t stir it, the powder dissolved into the water. Juyanghwa tea, with a vivid orange color like the famous beverage, was completed.

-You are a truly unique person.

“Has there been anyone who eats like me?”

-As far as I know, there isn’t a single one.

“It would be a waste if there was any powder left over.”

Baek Woo-jin slightly stirred the Joo Yang-hwa tea and drank it in one go. The first taste of the tea was sweet, sour in the middle, and bitter at the end. It was a unique taste with three flavors in succession.

“Nothing changes?”

Baek Woo-jin muttered while looking at his body.

-That’s strange. Originally, the effect appeared immediately.

“It’s not because I drank water, right?”

-Hmm, maybe so. Because there was no one like you.

“Holy shit!”

When Baek Woo-jin was shaking with anxiety, a hologram window appeared in his eyes.

[Resistance to 4 major attributes is permanently increased by 20 points.]

[Mana sensitivity is permanently increased by 20 points.]

[Auror resistance is permanently increased by 20 points.]

I was able to breathe a sigh of relief as soon as I saw the status window. .

“I thought the precious elixir was lost in the air.”

-Every day is a spectacle when I’m with you. I’m so sick of it now.

The darkness stuck out its tongue and waved its blade.

-From now on, just do as I tell you. If you did something alone…

[You have used the correct dosage method of Zhou Yanghua for the first time.]

[Additional abilities are provided.]

[Your sensitivity to the four major attributes is permanently increased by 20 points.]

[Your resistance to the four major attributes is permanently increased by 20 points. ]

[Mana sensitivity permanently increases by 10 points.]

[Auror resistance permanently increases by 10 points.]

Baek Woo-jin looked at the floating hologram window and stared at the darkness.

“Darkness. “Would you like to say that again? Just do as you’re told?”

-…
