Chapter 269
Episode 269 Nest
“Ah…”
“Uhm…”
The faces of the prosecutors who watched the confrontation between Baek Woo-jin and Baek Cheon-hwa turned pale.
It was to the point where they doubted whether what they had just heard had actually come from reality.
“That crazy guy!”
“Crazy bastard…”
“….”
Baek Myung-hoon and Baek Ho-jung were scared and took a step back, while Baek So-hee gritted her teeth and glared at Baek Woo-jin.
“It doesn’t move at all.”
“He’s a monster. “Look at you getting stronger again.”
Baek Yeon-hwi and Baek Eun-kyung felt the momentum of Baek Woo-jin and Baek Cheon-hwa becoming stronger and made up their minds to move at any time.
“What the hell is going on?”
“A duel? And that too with the Shingeombaekga on the line?”
“It’s a scoop! This is a great scoop! “Put it up right now!”
The Baek family guests sitting on the left gaped at the unimaginable situation.
The reporters quickly took pictures and began reporting the news.
On the other hand, Baek Woo-jin’s guests sitting on the right watched this situation calmly.
“The Deputy Headquarters Manager isn’t moving?”
“It’s already starting.”
Seo Gong-myeong spoke to Yoo Jin-ah, who was sitting next to him. Yujinah smiled and turned her head.
“It’s starting?”
“The article has probably already been posted. “There is an article about a duel between Baek Cheon-hwa and Baek Woo-jin, with the future of the Shingeombaek family at stake.”
“Huh, she’s not the woman who got half of the black market for nothing.”
“It was all his idea.”
Yoo Jin-ah shook her head and looked at Baek Woo-jin standing in front of Baek Cheon-hwa.
“All I did was follow what he said.”
Baek Woo-jin came to see me a month ago and gave me instructions on what would happen today.
He even predicted the current situation and the time to declare war on Baek Tian-hwa, so there would be chaos outside by now.
“Wow….”
“This is….”
Jeok Yeon-hwa and Seo In-ah made eye contact and swallowed dry saliva. I felt like my heart was pounding because it felt like a fight between Baek Woo-jin and Baek Cheon-hwa would break out at any moment.
“Hahaha! Chang King! “Isn’t that guy really crazy?”
The Red Guards let out a cheerful laugh and called out Hwang Byeong-hun, who was sitting on their right.
I knew Baek Woo-jin would cause an accident, but I never thought he would cause such a major accident. I’ve seen a lot of crazy people, but this was my first time seeing one like that.
“He’s basically like that. “It exceeded my expectations.”
Hwang Byeong-hun shrugged his shoulders. A cool smile naturally bloomed when I saw Baek Woo-jin proudly declaring war.
“Ah, Dad!”
“Relax. “There won’t be any fighting.”
Jeok Wi-jin grinned as he held Jeok Yeon-hwa’s shoulders as she trembled with anxiety.
“Baek Chun-hwa stepped right into that kid’s trap.”
**
Coo coo coo coo.
The enormous energy of Baek Woo-jin and Baek Cheon-hwa rushed towards heaven and earth, distorting the platform and its surroundings.
The sight looked like a black tiger and a red tiger growling while baring their sharp teeth, and it also seemed like the noon sun and the midnight full moon competing for light.
Quaaaaa!
The energy of Baekcheonhwa burned to the point that it covered the entire training ground.
“Ugh!”
“Keueuuuuu!”
The white swordsmen near the podium trembled and stepped back.
“Uhm….”
“Ugh!”
Kang Cheol-min, the head of the Cheokgeomdaeju and the Public Prosecutors’ Office, also bit his lip as he bowed low to the powerful energy waves radiating from the two people’s bodies.
Absolutely!
On the other hand, Baek Woo-jin, standing in front of Baek Cheon-hwa, was not pushed away at all. It dyed the entire sky with black thunderbolts and stood head-on against the energy of the White Heavenly Flower.
Coo coo coo coo!
The energy of Baek Woo-jin and Baek Cheon-hwa became tangible and soared into the sky. It seemed like the black dragon and the red dragon were clashing, aiming for the only hole in the sky to ascend to heaven.
“What is it?”
“It’s not pushed at all!”
“They are also of the same level? “With that new sword, Baek Cheon-hwa?”
People stuck out their tongues when they saw Baek Woo-jin’s huge energy. I thought that no matter how much Baek Woo-jin became stronger, Baek Cheon-hwa, who was called the Divine Sword, was still far away.
But it was a mistake. Baek Woo-jin had already tracked Baek Cheon-hwa down to her chin.
“Have you been aiming for this situation from the beginning?”
“Just like my father was looking for me, I also waited for this moment. Heavenly Sword Library? “I have no interest in the library from which my father took the contents.”
“You…”
“All I want is to be the head of the Shingeombaek family.”
Baek Tianhwa unleashed even more powerful energy. Although the pressure was difficult to breathe, Baek Woo-jin answered without any problem.
“…What do you know! “What did you do!”
Baek Cheon-hwa glared at Baek Woo-jin with burning eyes.
“house owner? “Why do you say you know so much about this hundred family that you want to become the head of the family?”
“I don’t know as much as my father. However, I know that there are things that a guild master and a family head should not do.”
“Are you a cooperative again? That bastard! How long are you going to keep talking about that useless chivalry!”
“It’s not useless. “Consultation is the most important factor for prosecutors and people.”
Baek Woo-jin’s eyes were as calm as a lake at night. There was not the slightest shaking.
“dog sound! What kind of fool thinks about cooperation when he really needs to make a profit! “If you can gain power, you must do so even if it means abandoning your family, not your subordinates!”
“I was able to stand here thanks to fighting with the previous agreement in mind. And the family’s swordsmen believed in us and entered the Baek family. “We must not throw it away, but protect it so that it can stand properly.”
“That doesn’t even sound like a horse! Everything in Shingeombaekga exists for me! I am more important than the entire family! This Baekcheonhwa is everything about the Baek family!”
“The Shingeombaekga does not belong to my father, but to all prosecutors living in this land.”
“shut up!”
Baek Cheon-hwa screamed and unleashed an even more terrifying energy wave. Even though red storms and thunderstorms erupted, Baek Woo-jin did not waver.
“Singeombaekga is a family, not a guild. You can’t treat the prosecutors belonging to the family like family, but you use disparaging words. That’s not something a person would do, regardless of the family head. “Your ways are wrong.”
“Ugh….”
Baek Cheon-hwa momentarily forgot what he was saying at Baek Woo-jin’s firm words and glowing eyes.
“If you have nothing more to say, please confirm my wish. “You clearly said that any wish is possible, so I believe you will not reject it.”
“Do you really want to die?”
Baek Tian-hwa gritted his teeth and snapped his fingers. Baek Woo-jin is still weaker than himself. I could have killed him now.
Hwaaaah!
As I was about to use my hands with all my might and energy, a huge presence rose up from the right.
It’s an enemy line. The guy was smiling confidently and radiating energy as if he was going to intervene at any moment.
“Could it be that the reason you brought that guy in was to protect you? “You dirty bastard!”
“no. “It was just to get my wish confirmed.”
“Ugh…”
Baek Cheon-hwa trembled with the eyes of a wild beast as if he would attack at any moment.
-It looks like it’s going to run. be careful.
‘I’m not coming.’
-huh?
‘I would have come earlier, but I just came to my senses after feeling the power of the Emperor.’
If my father got excited and said something rude, I might have attacked him. But I just came to my senses from the momentum of the enemy guard.
“They were all targeting it.”
Baek Cheon-hwa’s eyes cooled down. Even though I didn’t explode with anger, my life became so bad that my cheeks started hurting.
“You made me angry, ruined my reputation, and brought in enemy guards to create a situation where a fight can’t happen…” “
If you want to think that way, you can do whatever you want.”
“That’s amazing. “It’s really amazing.”
Baek Cheon-hwa clapped his hands and laughed. His sharp energy and fierceness sank deep like mud in a swamp.
“I admit it. “I was completely screwed.”
I looked around and shook my head. Because he said harsh words, the prosecutors did not look at him kindly.
But Baek Tian-hwa didn’t care. My thoughts were not wrong. The most important thing in this family was not those beggars but themselves.
If you had the strength, those bugs would follow you.
“good night. I will grant your wish. January 1st next year. I will challenge you to a duel for the position of the head of the family. Risk your life.”
At Baek Cheon-hwa’s declaration, a heavy silence fell once again throughout the training hall.
“thank you.”
“of course. “As long as you are alive after completing my mission.”
“I won’t disappoint you.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled brightly while listening to Baek Cheon-hwa’s cold words.
“good night. “Just give it a try.”
Baek Cheon-hwa glared at Baek Woo-jin with razor-blue eyes and then turned around. I took one look at the enemy line and left the training ground.
“Whew…”
Baek Woo-jin looked at Baek Cheon-hwa’s back and let out the sigh he had been holding in.
-You were truly angry.
‘okay. ‘It’s different than ever.’
My father’s voice was calm. There was no energy or life, but it gave off a chill that made you feel like you had entered an abyss. That seemed to be his true self.
‘It’s cool, but I’m a little worried about the back.’
-So I told you to do it for two years instead of one.
‘It’s already happened. More than that, now…’
Baek Woo-jin looked back. The prosecutors, engulfed in confusion, were looking at themselves with expressions that did not know what to do.
When I looked into their eyes, something hot that couldn’t be expressed in words boiled up in my heart.
“It will be confusing. It might be difficult to understand. However, you all know that the current family is wrong.”
Baek Woo-jin slowly approached the end of the podium.
“I am not a nice, good human being. Honest titles such as Hyeopgeom and Hyeopje are actually not suitable. Although we tried to keep the agreement, there were many things we could not achieve and countless lives we could not save. But…”
His quiet words were heard clearly in the ears of everyone in this room.
“Growing up in this ruthless family, I became acutely aware of what was important and what I should pursue. A family is a community. When a family member is in danger, it is natural to save them. When a family member is injured, it is natural to help with treatment and worry about them. But this family did not do that. Those who were slow to achieve, those who were weak, and those who made one mistake were considered losers and were cruelly kicked out. “I wanted to change that coldness.”
Baek Woo-jin looked into the eyes of the prosecutors. Some were embarrassed, some had shining hot eyes, and some were glaring with cold eyes.
“I’m not going to tell you to follow me now. One year from now, I will defeat my father here. Watch how this family changes after that. If there is no Baekga in your heart at that time, leave. “I will send it to you without any restrictions.”
With those words, he came down from the podium. The medical school followed behind.
They didn’t have the slightest appearance of immaturity. As if he had become a master at the peak, there was not a single gap visible.
With an ironclad spirit, Baek Woo-jin left the training ground while protecting everything.
Baek Yeon-hwi, Hyeongeomdae Baek Eun-kyung, Myeolgeomdae, and Baek Woo-jin’s guests followed behind them.
The remaining people just looked at their backs with mesmerized expressions.
**
The huge incident that occurred in Baekga was spread as if it were broadcast live.
It became known to the world what Baek Cheon-hwa thought of his prosecutors and what changes Baek Woo-jin was aiming for and what he was thinking.
– Well, there has been a lot of talk about the Baek family being a cold-hearted family for a long time. It’s worth it.
-I was also expelled from Baekga. I can’t see any talent. It’s a family, and it’s a colder place than a guild.
-But everyone left and went to Baek Woo-jin. How can you say something like that to Baek Cheon-hwa? To put it simply, we’re trying to hit it off.
-What? They’ve grown to the point where they’re equal, so they’re asking us to fight.
-Are you sure your brain is made of udon noodles? If I could have won, I would have asked to fight right away.
-Tsk tsk The current Baek Woo-jin is on the same level as Korea’s top three absolute figures. I don’t know what will happen if we fight. no. In fact, Baek Woo-jin’s sword technique is not compatible with Baek Cheon-hwa, and he cannot ignore it.
-Ah, that damn sound! I guess Baekwoojin will install more.
-It’s better than sucking at Baek Cheon-hwa, who doesn’t see humans as humans. They say Ji is the best. lol.
-I don’t know anything else, but Baek Woo-jin’s words touch my heart. Even if I sell my soul, I enter Shingeombaekga.
-Sigh! Ha, I want to be Baek Woo-jin just for one day…
– Just for a day. Did you faint while listening to Baek Woo-jin’s speech?
**
Two months have passed since Baek Woo-jin declared war.
Baek Cheon-hwa entered Gajujeon and stopped communicating with the outside world and did not come out. I heard that he had started a new training, but no one could tell if that was true.
Baek Woo-jin expressed his gratitude to the people who helped him, then settled down at the sword shrine and began practicing swordsmanship.
While listening to the advice of Darkness, I mastered the sword techniques I had accumulated and learned two new sword techniques at the same time.
-I have no sense of humor. Can’t you do this?
“It feels completely opposite to the previous ones!”
Baek Woo-jin frowned. The sword technique I am practicing now is to absorb the sword. It was a technique used by advanced swords to absorb the opponent’s energy or interfere with the sword’s path.
It was not easy to learn because it was a technique of absorbing the senses rather than emitting them as had been done so far.
-What is the exact opposite? Although they may seem different from medical dramas and courtroom dramas, they are ultimately similar. The same goes for Geomro.
“What an example! And you’re learning two advanced swords at once!”
-If it were me, I would have finished it all right away and been watching the drama. So, are you going to catch your father?
“Ah-oh! That damn drama! “I confiscate one week of your drama!”
-Huh! That’s nonsense!
Baek Woo-jin stomped on the ground and entered the break room. When I took the ice water out of the refrigerator and tried to drink it, silver frost came down along with a popping sound.
Chiiing!
As the frost grew, snowflake the size of a parrot appeared. It came over, sweeping the floor with its tail, and rubbed its wings against my calf.
“Tweet!”
“It’s here again. “Are you hungry these days?”
“Jeak!”
Seolbing nodded and pecked Baek Woojin’s shoes.
“Is it growing?”
-Maybe it’s because that guy is ready to become king.
“He’s the king…”
Baek Woo-jin nodded. After his rival, Ignis, grew up, he was eating food like a growing child.
It seems like the time has come to break away from what I am like Ignis.
“okay. Eat. Let’s eat and grow up.”
I took out a container of mint chocolate ice cream from the freezer.
“Tweet!”
Sulbing buried his head in the ice cream container and began to inhale the mint chocolate.
“Hmm…”
Baek Woo-jin drank the ice water in his hand and turned on the TV hanging on the wall in the lounge.
-W It was a joke too, right? A good guy like you is banned from dramas….
“I’m going to watch the news.”
Baek Woo-jin blew his nose and turned the TV to the news.
-This devil….
“Yes. I am sorry. “Do you know now?”
I sat down and watched the news, teasing the darkness lightly.
After some world-changing news came out, news about monsters and people with abilities began to come out.
[Marine monsters are coming towards Seogwipo City. The type and number of them are beyond what the guilds on Jeju Island can handle, and there are even rumors that a boss-level monster has appeared in the association… Huh?] The
male announcer who was reading the script widened his eyes upon receiving the new material.
[Umm, this is breaking news. It is said that a new monster has appeared in the Seogwipo area I just mentioned. I will show you on the screen.]
The screen changed and the sea of Jeju Island was visible.
Numerous sea monsters such as Sharkrai Volak, Matarun Heavy Whale, etc. were seen, and behind them, huge blue monsters were standing up.
-Huh? Why are those guys….
“That’s….”
