I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy
Chapter 217

Episode 217 Return (4)

A festival was held at the front.

The festival, which should have been held when the black tree was broken, only started now, five months later.

Although it was a long time ago since the festival, everyone’s joy and pleasure did not decrease at all compared to 5 months ago because the missing hero returned in good health.

The talented people at the front cried and laughed and told the stories and stories of the past years like threads, and those who came late had a good time listening to their heroic stories.

While the talented people were enjoying sweet drinks and delicious food, Baek Woo-jin went up to the stage.

“Wow!”

“Cooperation!”

“Hero on the front lines!”

“Baek Woo-jin! Baek Woo-jin!”

“stop.”

Baek Woo-jin lowered his hand and suppressed the shouts of the talented people that made them feel embarrassed.

“This is Baek Woo-jin.”

“Waaah!”

“Stop yelling later and I’ll tell you what I have to say first.”

Baek Woo-jin’s light joke brought a smile to the faces of everyone who saw him.

“You are idiots and idiots.”

The talented people widened their eyes and gaped at Baek Woo-jin’s firm voice.

“There will be no fools like you in the world. If your long-cherished wish of breaking the black neck and disappearing the dark zone has come true, go home, wipe your feet, and go to sleep. Why did you stay here and wait for me? “They are truly frustratingly stupid people.”

Baek Woo-jin’s voice was filled with the emotion he felt when he heard that all the talented people who fought together remained here without missing a single one.

“Hahaha! I think the same! “Everyone here is a bastard!”

“If we weren’t idiots, we wouldn’t be here!”

“If we were smart, we would have gone home right away and lived our lives!”

“Actually, the commander and deputy commander here and there are the biggest idiots.”

The talented people at the front were giggling and making fun of themselves for being idiots.

“Commander, you’re calling us idiots?”

“You are an idiot.”

“Well, that’s right. “There is no fool like you, Commander.”

Baek Yeon-hwi and Hwang Byeong-hun, who were sitting right in front of the podium, also laughed warmly, teasing each other for being idiots.

“I would like to say my sincere gratitude to such idiots and idiots. thank you.”

Baek Woo-jin once again bowed his head to everyone and expressed his proper gratitude.

-Like you said, they are idiots. But there’s nothing wrong with dating idiots like that.

‘Because they are grateful fools.’

They could have lived comfortably with the experience and money they gained from the front lines, but they were overflowing with loyalty and humanity, waiting for them without leaving this hell-like place just because they had disappeared.

The same was true for the people who came here for him. I felt truly grateful to everyone here.

“For those idiots, I will shoot them all today. Please enjoy to your heart’s content.”

“Don’t regret it later!”

“Are we really eating until we’re full?”

“I’m saying this because I don’t know how much we can drink.”

“I can waste all my money.”

“As expected, it’s in the vice commander’s blood. “It’s so big!”

“Waaaaaa!”

Baek Woo-jin went down the stage to everyone’s cheers and headed to the table where Baek Yeon-hwi, Hwang Byeong-hoon, Yoon Woo-min, and Baek Cheon-woong were present.

“It’s going to take some money to unpack what those guys have accumulated, right?”

“are you okay. “Because what’s left is money.”

Baek Woo-jin smiled at Baek Yeon-hwi.

All that was overflowing was money, and there was also a pile of things that would make money if sold.

Even if you provide this many people with high-quality food and alcohol, it won’t even put a dent in your bank account.

“Where on earth have you been to become so strong? “I almost didn’t recognize him.”

Yoon Woo-min, who hit one shot of makgeolli, turned his head. Baek Woo-jin not only became stronger in swordsmanship and aura. Even the spirit’s energy had risen to the point where it was shocking.

“okay. “Now tell me.”

“I’m curious too.”

Everyone sitting at the table looked at Baek Woo-jin with eyes full of interest.

“Hmm….”

Baek Woo-jin made eye contact with Baek Yeon-hwi, Baek Cheon-woong, Hwang Byeong-hoon, and Yoon Woo-min in turn. Since these were all people I could trust, I decided to tell them the truth.

“Then I’ll keep it simple.”

Baek Woo-jin briefly talked about what had happened so far.

Of course, excluding the story about darkness and the system, he said that he accidentally went to another world because of his ability to split dimensions.

“Another world…”

“Huh, the Black Tree was the world tree? “Is that why you were so tough?”

“You are the guy who becomes a hero wherever you go. Very gifted! haha!”

Baek Cheon-woong, Baek Yeon-hwi, and Hwang Byeong-hoon heard Baek Woo-jin’s story and their faces turned red with excitement. Because I had no idea that he had gone to another world.

“That’s why your spirit’s energy and sensitivity went up like crazy.”

“I was lucky in many ways.”

“It’s not luck, it’s your ability and your will. “That’s amazing.”

Yoon Woo-min smiled as he looked at Baek Woo-jin’s heart count.

You can’t overcome Ifrit’s flames and make the World Tree bloom just by being lucky. It would be a victory achieved through enduring hellish burning pain.

“It’s all good. It went very well. But…”

“Yes?”

“Did you eat something so good by yourself? “It would have been perfect if I had brought it and settled for it.”

“Oh, I see. “How delicious the fruit of the World Tree must have been!”

“Cluck.”

“sorry.”

“Oh, just kidding. joke!”

Yoon Woo-min shook his head and muttered, “I can’t even joke.” The others looked at him with warm smiles.

“Woojin. Are you sure you’ll be okay?”

When the drinking party had reached a certain level, Baek Cheon-woong looked at Baek Woo-jin with a pensive look on his face.

“it’s okay.”

Baek Woo-jin understood what Baek Cheon-woong was trying to say even though the words had no subject. He was worried about confronting Baek Cheon-hwa head-on.

“I felt relieved at the time, but I’m also worried.”

“Well, I can’t tell what that person is thinking…”

Yoon Woo-min and Hwang Byeong-hun also frowned, as if they were worried.

“You all know. “My father and I took different paths from the beginning.”

Baek Woo-jin continued speaking in a voice that did not contain the slightest worry.

“From the moment we invaded the main gate, my father must have known for sure that I was a different person from him. That’s why I made a bet when I came here.”

My father knew that too and tried to make the most of it. The peak was the Daeyeonmun incident, which appeared late and took advantage of all the benefits.

“I have no intention of taking points from my father and becoming the head of the Baek family. “I will personally defeat him with the force that my father loves so much.”

I made a clear decision this time.

Instead of inheriting the position of the head of the family, he planned to take the position of the head of the family with the power that he valued so much.

“I’ve been told a lot of times that I’m crazy, but you’re even more crazy than that.”

“Hmm…”

Baek Yeon-hwi exhaled something absurd, and Baek Cheon-woong smiled bitterly, as if he was still worried.

“Do not worry. I’m not going to attack you right now. “I know best that it is still impossible.”

“okay. “You can take care of it yourself.”

Yoon Woo-min nodded and patted Baek Woo-jin on the shoulder.

“Aren’t we there? “If you call me, all the idiots here will run.”

Hwang Byeong-hun pointed to the talented people at the front. Those fools who only know that loyalty will go anywhere to help Baek Woo-jin as long as he says so.

“I see.”

Byung-Hoon Hwang was right. What we gained by coming to the front lines was not only military force. A relationship with those people was also created. This relationship will be of great help someday.

‘How different is my father and I?’

-It is true that we climbed the same mountain as you thought. The difference is that you are heading towards the halfway side of the mountain and your father is heading towards the top.

Darkness continued talking while looking at the bonfire that was burning.

-It’s true that there are differences between you and your father, but don’t you have the luck of a dogfighter and the constitution of a training fanatic? If you practice as hard as you do now…

‘Ah!’

Baek Woo-jin clapped his hands softly as if he had finally remembered something.

‘I remember it because I was lucky. I met the system.’

-uh? What?

‘I met the system while you were sleeping.’

Baek Woo-jin told Heuk-am that he had waited for 24 hours before coming here.

-Holy shit! I wish I had! I should have broken through that wall and hit the head of the system!

The darkness exploded with rage and fluttered like a live fish.

-It’s clear that he made me sleep on purpose. He put me to sleep because he didn’t want to break my head!

‘And I also received a perk.’

-Perks? What a perk!

‘I raised my abilities. ‘That…’

He also told me that he had received an emergency quest privilege from Darkness.

– Jeenjang! I should have broken the back of his head! Next time I will never sleep! I won’t sleep even if I die, and I won’t sleep even if I don’t sleep!

‘What do you mean…’

Baek Woo-jin shook his head and stood up. I left the darkness that had started to glow and walked to the left.

“I didn’t know you were here.”

“It’s not a place I can’t come to.”

Jeok Yeon-hwa, who was with the Wind Shindan, pouted her mouth.

“I received help from you in many ways, so I came here to pay you back. The Wind Shindan also saved my life once…”

“Yes. “Thank you for coming.”

“Ugh!”

Baek Woo-jin smiled softly and closed his eyes. Jeok Yeon-hwa suddenly hiccuped and turned her head.

“You over there…”

“Even so, I won’t take away your right to wish. “You know this is separate from this, right?”

“This person is real!”

Baek Woo-jin stepped back as he saw Jeok Yeon-hwa stand up and stamp her feet.

“I’m just kidding, thank you so much. “I’ll visit you at the enemy’s house later.”

“Umm…”

Jeok Yeon-hwa sat down like a helpless cat after hearing Baek Woo-jin’s last words.

“You are truly surprising.”

Baek Woo-jin left Jeok Yeon-hwa and approached Jeong Geun-ho, who was eating four servings of lamb ribs by himself.

“Ugh! “What?”

“I thought you wouldn’t be there.”

-Isn’t he a pervert? I came here after getting hit by hundreds of blows from you.

Even in darkness, I came back to my senses in an instant, as if I had never even dreamed that Jeong Geun-ho would be here.

“They said the old man didn’t even bring it.”

“Of course I came with my own feet.”

Jeong Geun-ho swallowed his lamb ribs and woke up.

“Because you are my rival. “You can’t just watch them run away after winning.”

“Because they’re rivals…”

-He’s a guy with really great self-esteem.

No one could match Jeong Geun-ho’s self-esteem. Looking at his eyes, it seemed like he was planning on attacking me again even after being beaten like that.

“good. “Let’s play a game sometime soon.”

“uh? “That’s a bit…”

Jeong Geun-ho suddenly stepped back, scratching the back of his head.

“huh?”

Baek Woo-jin was rather embarrassed. I tried to help by sparring, but I couldn’t understand what was happening.

“There are some things that aren’t finished yet. Let’s do it if that happens. huh!”

Jeong Geun-ho made an appointment for himself and ran to the other side carrying lamb ribs.

-What are you doing?

“Well….”

Baek Woo-jin tilted his head and headed toward the square table where the medical sword table was located.

“Everyone has worked hard so far.”

Baek Woo-jin sat down next to Moon Ju-young and patted him on the shoulder.

“Not at all!”

“you’re right. Of course we have to wait for you, Master.”

“Well, I had a bit of a hard time. haha!”

Moon Joo-young and Hong Nam-gi shook their heads, and Kim Woo-hyuk licked his lips and laughed.

“Ugh, Master….”

Hong A-ra, who saw Baek Woo-jin from the front, began to shed tears again.

“I still haven’t gotten over my crying habit.”

“Uuuuuu….”

Hong A-ra began to cry even more sadly. Baek Woo-jin and the medical school smiled as if they knew that would happen and waited for her to cry freely.

-That guy doesn’t really change either.

‘That’s the charm.’

The guy who became the best at the Medical Swordsmanship in terms of his sword skills was still a crybaby, but he seemed to fit in well.

“I’ll apologize first. “I’m sorry for making you worry, and I’m sorry for causing an accident as soon as I arrived.”

“never! Absolutely not!”

“If you hadn’t come, we would all have died.”

“And even if we are kicked out of our family, you will feed us.”

There was not the slightest wrinkle on the medical examiner’s face. It is not about Baek family, but about Baek Woo-jin himself.

“What do we do now?”

“What should I do? What should I do?” “I have to go back home.”

“Um, is that okay?”

Park Hye-ri narrowed her eyebrows as if she was worried.

“don’t worry. “No problem.”

Since the name Baek Woo-jin has grown beyond a large guild, his father cannot cast him out. Throwing yourself away in this situation is the worst thing you can do.

“But…”

Baek Woo-jin looked around at the prosecutors at the medical school and noticed that one thing was missing.

-why?

‘That guy isn’t there.’

There wasn’t a single crazy person in sight who was stuck next to the medical examiner’s table.

“Where did the thief go?”

“Oh, that person….”

“Surely he left?”

I thought it might have been because Mu Young-gaek was not a particularly loyal guy.

“no. I didn’t leave. “We are exploring what used to be a dark zone.”

“quest?”

“With the dark zone disappearing, I am traveling to places I have never been to before. It usually comes back once every two or three days. Well, now that I think about it, it’s a bit long this time. “It’s already been 4 days…”

Moon Joo-young tilted her head as if it was strange.

“Is that guy still stealing these days?”

“Surprisingly, people don’t steal these days. “Have I grown up or something?”

-That can’t be possible, right?

‘I think the same thing.’

A fly can avoid poop, but it can’t stop a thief from stealing.

‘He’s doing something.’

**

Even the day after the festival ended, Guest Muyeong did not return.

Baek Woo-jin heard that Mu Young-gaek was heading to the northwest and went out to replace him himself.

I asked those with abilities guarding the northwest, but was told that they had not seen me since we met three days ago.

“Where did this thief go?”

-He’s probably stuck somewhere, trying to steal or replace things.

“I’ll have to look for it properly.”

Baek Woo-jin spread his energy widely and searched the forest. A lot of time had passed, and since he walked so lightly, it was not easy to replace any traces.

It was only after using the Dark Cloud Incense, a characteristic of the Black Battle Tiger, that I was able to replace its traces and track it down.

“hmm?”

Baek Woo-jin looked with strange eyes at the bush where the traces of Mu-yeong-gaek had disappeared. It was similar to the bushes found elsewhere, but it felt slightly artificial.

“Isn’t this bush strange?”

-It’s only a little, but there are traces of tampering.

Baek Woo-jin lifted the bush, but the ground under the bush was just dirt. There was no sign of digging.

“found.”

But Baek Woo-jin smiled and picked up one part of the floor like a piece of paper and lifted it up.

Sigh!

Then, a magic cloth the same color as the ground flew away, revealing a black hole.

“It looks like our Younggaek has prepared a gift for my return.”

Baek Woo-jin laughed as he looked at the entrance to the basement.
