Chapter 375
375. Dimension Cradle (1)
Seeing the system message in front of me, I smiled bitterly.
「Achievement ‘Conquest of Murim’ has been achieved.」
「Exclusive authority #D-0007[Increase reward] is activated automatically when the conditions are met.」
「The level of rewards obtained from the achievement increases.」
「All stats increase by 100 I will.」
He must be…
“….”
It’s because he noticed that the ordeal of his earnest wish was about to come to an end.
‘okay. Now it’s really over…’
I felt regret linger in my mouth.
Originally, when I climbed the tower, Murim didn’t feel very welcome, but it wasn’t like that anymore.
Should I say it feels like finding an oasis at the end of a bloody desert?
After adjusting to the physiology here, living in Moorim itself felt quite attractive.
‘Does this feel like cutting open the belly of the goose that lays the golden eggs?’
But it didn’t last long.
As is often said, there are no infinite resources in the world
.
In fact, the sight in front of his eyes could be said to be proof of that. ‘I can’t
believe
there’s nothing more to be gained from this honey pot…’
A land with only traces of burnt-down buildings.
This place could no longer be regarded as an environment in which creatures could live.
It’s just that this side has been unknowingly polluting the ground just by letting the divine starlight dwelling with the divine < Death >.
‘It’s very unfortunate.’
And it wasn’t just here.
It would be no different from the numerous other Murim forces that this side broke during the day.
It was all the more so because all the visible large-scale Murim forces, whether Jeongpai or Sapain, were completely eliminated.
That means one thing.
It’s nothing else… “You have cleared the Special Contract Ordeal < The Last Wish : White Crane Swordsman >.
”
It has been confirmed that the White Crane Swordsman (白鶴劍仙) of the contract ordeal has more than trusted appraisal.」 「The
clear reward for the special contract ordeal is set at the highest level, and additional rewards are paid.」 「
…But Mr. Baek Settlement time will continue within the stage for several days until Sega’s reputation is known to Murim
.
“At this point, there is nothing more to look at, but this means that the revival of the Baek family has been confirmed.”
It was worth it.
In this world, Murim is a confederation, or a place like a munpa or sega, and it rolls around.
If that’s the case, haven’t I destroyed all the places that started with the Murim League, the Old Families, and the Five Greats.
If so, the place that survived was the structure that won.
‘This is the victory of the Baek family who survived.’
It is because the reconstruction of a family referred to in Moorim is not an absolute evaluation, but a relative evaluation.
Of course, the immediate clearing of the ordeal did not appear because the revival of the Baek family was not properly known yet…
but it did not matter.
Anyway, I also planned to spend some time at the Baek family and teach Baek Seol-hwa’s martial arts a little more.
This also had its own charm.
‘Actually, I want to look at the arrangement of the lightsaber festival somewhere in Moorim while I have time left…’
If I had to argue, the fact that there was nothing I could do even if I tried to work more in this field also helped in that choice.
‘It’s impossible because I can’t use the inventory.’
lightsaber.
It is one of the divine powers given to this side in the past by injecting divine < Harmony > into the ‘Island Skill (S+)’.
Well, the lightsaber system was greatly suppressed for being a god after being chosen by the tower, but I was curious about what was in the treasure house that the god had gathered.
But even that is not yet the time.
‘It can’t be helped.’
Originally, it would have been possible to find the arrangement of the lightsaber system in Murim based on the tracking ability inherent in the ‘S+’, but the items obtained from the tower
are I won’t be able to write anything.’
In fact, since I couldn’t use the inventory itself, I couldn’t even explore the arrangement of the lightsaber system.
Even if you use the inventory by activating the transcendence myth < Absolute Unchanging >, the tower will immediately stop the ordeal of your earnest desire accordingly, so it is meaningless.
I have nothing more to do.
It is only to be faithful to the role played by this side until the ordeal of the earnest wish is completely over, and the perfect revival of the Baek family should be the only thing.
At that, I turned my head and looked at the ruined land with a smile on my lips.
“…”
It was expected.
Isn’t even the Murim of the past reproduced by the Tower so interesting?
Then, what about Moorim in the outside world?
It won’t be long before you find out about him.
‘It wouldn’t be bad to listen to it just once to kill time.’
It’s just…
‘Ah, come to think of it, there must be more to be gained from Moorim outside than just the arrangement of the lightsaber festival, right?’
It felt very unfortunate that it would be my first and last visit to Moorim.
‘…just the thought of going to Murim over there makes my mouth water.’
…or not.
***
Time flies no matter what.
Even if this side gets bored with wasting time without compensation, that fact doesn’t change.
Having wiped out countless clans in one day, I went back to the Baek family and took care of the things needed to rebuild the family.
「Achievement ‘Family Reconstruction’ has been achieved.」
「Exclusive authority #D-0007[Increase reward] is activated automatically when the conditions are met.」
「The reward level obtained from the achievement increases.」
「All stats increase by 4. I do.」
‘It’s not difficult.’
It wasn’t too difficult.
After all, the only thing this side could do was use their strength.
Even thanks to the direct destruction of numerous Murim factions, now the Baek family had complete trust in my armed forces.
Because of that, the work of promoting the fame of the Baek family to the whole Moorim progressed smoothly and without any obstructions, unlike before.
And in the rest of his free time, he devoted himself to educating Baek Seol-hwa in her swordsmanship.
It’s very delicate too.
“You shouldn’t see your opponent’s movements as they are.”
“You have to observe the other person as much as possible and consider the contraction of all muscles, the depth of breathing, the wriggling of energy, etc. before moving.”
“…? How the hell do you know that? You can feel it just by pretending. Perhaps, over time, you will be able to detect even the smallest vibrations in the air.”
Still, it had its own fun.
It’s just climbing the tower and teaching her half-self-learned combat skills… In fact,
for Snow White, her skills have grown steeply, as if even this acted as a great realization.
‘Is this a genius…?’
In response, I watched Snow White wielding a sword while sweating profusely in one of the gymnasiums and admired it.
‘It’s amazing.’
It was worth it.
At some point, Baek Seol-hwa had a perfect understanding of the new sword union, and even that was not enough, and she was entering the stage of changing the nature of sword skills.
As if now I know how the techniques I use work.
Come to think of it, the other day he said that he could follow this side’s training if he had enough mana in his body…
It doesn’t look like he was wrong.
‘It’s enough to say that the flaws are completely gone.’
In fact, she showed a natural prominence.
A level of near-perfect proficiency in changing the nature of sword flames in just two days.
Well, I still haven’t reached the level of swordsmanship, but I had no complaints because I definitely had a taste for teaching.
‘Honestly, Snow White also said that she became the first person in the world, so it’s natural for her to do this.’
So I stuck to Baek Seol-hwa and poured out my passion in teaching martial arts.
How many days have passed like that?
A day, two days, three days, four days….
Many peaceful days continued due to the elimination of the Moorim forces of different tendencies, who were fighting against each other.
and.
“Master.”
what day it was
It was the afternoon when Snow White’s training was over and the evening sunset colored the gymnasium.
Originally, since training, one of the daily routines, was over, both of them should have chatted and dispersed at this point….
Suddenly, Snow White flirted with her and smiled on her face, and then she approached as if she had something to show her.
“I have something to show the master.”
“?”
“Hmmmm! Oh, don’t be too surprised to see this! No matter how much I think about it, it seems like I have talent comparable to Master!”
“…”
She didn’t even give me a chance to answer, then she raised the wooden sword in her hand and said.
“Whoop whoop. If I show you this, Master-nim will be surprised too, right?”
and.
“…That’s right, this is a skill that even Master didn’t teach me.”
The moment she said that and injected energy into the wooden sword.
Only then did I realize why Snow White spoke so triumphantly.
That would be the case, because the wooden sword in her hand began to glow with pure white light, and then it shone as if it were a single starlight.
I knew what it was.
“Geomgi Seonggang (劍氣成罡)…”
In fact, isn’t that a skill that can only be manifested when one’s mana manipulation skills as a swordsman reach the limit?
I couldn’t help but be surprised because all I had taught her so far was combat techniques or changes in the nature of sword flame.
It was because this side had never taught Baek Seol-hwa the various knowledge to be able to use the sword so skillfully.
but for a while.
support position-.
Before I knew it, the strong qi formed on Snow White’s wooden sword swayed, and then it disappeared.
“Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…”
It seems that it hasn’t been long since she has reached the level of swordsmanship….
“How was it?”
To be honest, it was like this.
“It was great.”
It was amazing.
You didn’t tell me anything in particular from this side, but you’re awakening your own swordsmanship?
In fact, it was only in the fierce battle between life and death that I finally realized the sword steel, so I couldn’t help but be surprised.
“Whoops! Yes? This is the stage I reached based on the skills Master showed me! I’m sure I have the talent to match Master’s, right?”
In response to her persistent question, I smiled and nodded my head.
“yes. You definitely have talent. It was huge.”
At that, Snow White smiled widely and said with a shy expression.
“Then there is no need to hesitate.”
As if he had made up his mind to do what he had to do.
“Master.”
and.
“I want to become an official disciple of Master Han Seong-yoon.”
“…yes?”
“I mean it! Master Han Seong-yoon is the best person in the world, right? And even in the eyes of the master, the best person in the world, my talent is outstanding!”
“…”
The next moment.
“So…”
Before I knew it, I could see the desire for strength reflected in her eyes.
“Please be my teacher. I am…. Please help me become a martial artist like you.”
However, it wasn’t just the desire for strength that was reflected in her eyes.
“I want to become a soldier who can stand side by side with Master.”
It was a kind of longing-like feeling.
Somehow, I think I had a longing for the overwhelming power I showed
.
“…”
It was just like that.
The snow white flowers in front of me were fakes reproduced by the tower.
Even if it is infinitely the same as the main body, it will disappear before long.
With that in mind, it didn’t matter much whether he listened to her or not.
However, for some reason, I didn’t really want to give up the expectations of Snow White in front of me.
“Because they are priests…”
At least, that was the case for now.
“That’s not bad either.”
Feeling a strange sense of déjà vu, I smiled and nodded while saying that.
It was a sign of his intention to accept her as a disciple.
For a moment, Snow White’s face was filled with joy, but her words were not connected.
That should be the case too…
「Complete calculation of compensation.」
「Reward will be paid according to the emotional state of White Crane Swordsman.」
「As a reward for breaking through the special contract ordeal, ‘Deep Divinity’s Call (EX)’ It will be sent to this inventory.」
「As an additional breakthrough reward for the special contract ordeal, the ‘Bracelet of Sacred Absorption (SSS-)’ will be sent to your inventory.」
…Now that the ordeal of her longing, which was her wish, is over.
