Became A Swordsmanship Genius From A Great Family

Chapter 324 Preston Castle

– Isn’t that your disciple?

‘It’s changed a bit, but that’s right. It’s a dapple.’

Baek Woojin nodded. He wasn’t blonde, he had brown hair and was dressed as a traveler, but that young man was Daffel, the lord of Linden Castle, who he said was his disciple.

– Why is he here?

‘Did I finally come here thinking of Dapple?’

– Did you think of the dapple when you cut the dimension?

‘I came to Marutun Continent and met a lot of people, but he was the one who left the most impression on me.’

Daffle fell into despair when he saw his father, Lord Linden, killed by the demon of the divine sword right before his eyes.

He met himself while living under the pressure of suddenly becoming the lord of the castle, the fear of not knowing when the demon of the divine sword would attack, and the sense of duty to avenge his father.

‘You knelt down to me.’

Daffle, while holding the position of the lord of the castle, knelt down without hesitation, asking for his sword.

At first he thought he should only look at his posture in moderation, but he was so moved by his enthusiasm and hard work that he did his best to teach him the sword.

-He had a taste for teaching.

Darkness nodded. Although Daffle had the title of Seongju, he came out earlier than the general prosecutors and was the last to return.

He took off the skin of a young seongju who fell into despair after undergoing several battles, and became a true lord who knew the battlefield, even receiving the recognition of Baek Woojin.

– So why don’t you stop? Will your disciple go after your escort?

‘It should be dried.’

Baek Woojin nodded and stood up.

“Master!”

When he saw that he was awake, Dapple lowered his sword and ran.

“Where are you going!”

Moon Ju-young shook her head and stood in front of her.

“Move!”

“stop.”

When Dapple and Moon Ju-young slashed their swords again, Baek Woojin appeared between them and grabbed the two swords.

“Master! Are you okay?”

“Lord! You’re awake!”

Although the language is different, both of them were worried about themselves, so they laughed.

“Stop both. You are not enemies.”

“You also had a relationship with the Lord.”

Moon Ju-young nodded her head. The scent of Baek Woojin was felt in the sword of the blonde young man, so he did not intentionally attack with life.

“Master! Who the hell are these guys? And when did you come back? If you came, you should have come to Linden Castle right away… .”

“You still talk a lot.”

Baek Woojin looked at the dapple and laughed. The battlefield spirit was young on his face, and both Auror and swordsmanship had grown a lot.

– I haven’t given up on training.

‘It looks like you lived a hard life.’

Daffle, who kept his promise to practice every day before leaving, smiled proudly.

“Did you continue training?”

“of course! Not a single day was missed!”

“Good work.”

“Go, thank you!”

Daffle gave an ecstatic expression, bent his waist at a right angle, and then stood up.

“But who are these people? Master was down, so I ran to save him… .”

“My escort.”

“Hey, hey!”

Dapple tapped her cheek and bowed her head to Moon Ju-young as an apology. Moon Joo-young and Moo Young-gak were greeted with a shaky expression on their faces.

“Lord. Who the hell is this young man?”

“I’m the guy who taught you the sword. His name is Daffle.”

“Huh!”

Moon Ju-young opened her eyes as wide as a candle, and she turned her head to Dapple.

“My, my brother? Then you are a master! I need to apologize right now… .”

“I didn’t say I was a disciple.”

Moon Ju-young tried to kneel down to Dapple, but Baek Woojin waved her hand to stop it.

“I only looked after the sword and posture, there is no point in becoming your master. It is also the holy cycle of a castle.”

“castellan?”

It wasn’t Moon Ju-young who responded to the word Seong-ju, but Mu-yeong-gaek.

“You are blessed! Somehow, my ears are flowing! Hello! Everyone’s friend is called Muyeong-gak!”

Muyoung-gak smiled and saluted Dapple. Daffle didn’t know the meaning of those words and just laughed awkwardly.“Hey, everyone sit down. I have a lot to talk about.”

Baek Woojin rekindled the extinguished bonfire and sat down on the floor. The three followed him and took a seat around the bonfire.

“First of all, this is a place called Marutun Continent. It’s not Earth.”

“Eh?”

“That’s right… .”

“Have I ever lost my black head before? That’s when I came here. If you think of it as a fantasy world, you can easily understand it… .”

First, he said that he came here to pay off debts to Ju-Young Moon and Young-Gak Mu, and briefly explained what had happened before.

He told Daple that he had returned to stop the Empire. Of course, the story of darkness and the system was not brought out to anyone.

“It was. to pay off debt. You are also the Lord! I will go with you!”

“Wow, fantasy! Wow, treasure! Wow, elixir!”

Moon Ju-young muttered that it was also the headmaster and gave off her eyes of admiration, and Moo-young couldn’t hide her laughter as she was already thinking about stealing.

“T, these are unusual escorts.”

Daffle laughed at Moon Ju-young and Mu-yeong-gak.

“Do not worry about it. So where are you? Isn’t it like the Seiran Union?”

“Near the North Face.”

“North Face?”

“It is here.”

Daple took a map out of his luggage and showed him his current location. It was located in the northern part of the Rhine forest, where the World Tree was planted, at a considerable distance.

“Why are you here alone?”

“I came to Preston Castle.”

“Preston Castle?”

“It is called the ruler of the north. It’s right in front of the North Sea, so it’s extremely cold and there are a lot of powerful monsters, but it’s never been penetrated.”

Daffle pointed to Preston Castle, which had been engraved on the map, with eyes full of anticipation.

‘It’s really the northern end.’

Preston Castle was located at the northern tip of the continent. It is a place that is deep enough that it is not easy for the Empire to invade.

“Why did you build a castle in this place?”

“It is said that the first lord of Preston Castle, Preston, defeated the demons that ruled the frigid land, and built the castle together with the humans who were ruled by them. Well, it’s an old legend, so I don’t know what it will be like in reality.”

“So why are you going to that legendary castle?”

“I am going to ask for an alliance.”

“alliance?”

“Yes. The armies of the empire that had stopped and the black demons are starting to move again. I’ve come to borrow Preston’s power before that battle.”

Daffle clenched his fists as if he had to do it.

“How long has it been since I left?”

“Five years.”

“Five years… .”

It seemed that the time difference from Earth was about 2.5 times. The time axis is also different from before.

“As the world tree grew, the Rhine forest nearly doubled. Thanks to this, a forest linking the Seiran Union and Linden Castle was created, and many people gathered there. All this is thanks to Master. Everyone in Linden Castle and Rhine Forest was missing Master.”

“Don’t be rude.”

“It is real. In particular, Sylvia-sama always talks about Master… .”

“That later. What I’m curious about is why the ally wants to come here alone.”

Daffle is the lord of Linden Castle. Even if the value of Linden Castle has decreased through alliance with Seiran, it does not make sense for the castle lord to move alone.

“We have asked for an alliance at Preston Castle several times so far, but we have only received rejections. I’m so pissed off, I’m going to go see it myself this time.”

“Is the reason you go alone to take advantage of the imperial negligence?”

“Yes! They wouldn’t expect me to go out alone.”

Daffle clapped his hands and laughed. Baek Woojin was still able to understand his inner content just by listening to his story.

“Not a teacher. And you can just see it.”

Baek Woojin laughed. Daffle changed the color of his blonde hair and put on a mercenary outfit. Anyone would see it as a mercenary or a traveler.

“It was just dangerous.”

“Yes?”

“The eyes of the Empire are brighter than you think. I was just lucky that this was successful.”

It’s not scary. If Murian had been watching Daffle, he would not have been able to reach it and would have been captured.

“Not all things work out just because you have the ability to act. If you, the lord of the castle, die, what will the rest of the people do?”

“I will keep that in mind!”

Instead of grimacing at Baek Woojin’s concern, Dapple smiled brightly.

“Anyway, that’s all, let’s go to something with Preston Saints.”

“Are you really?”

“okay.”

“thank you!”

Daffle smiled broadly and lowered his head.

‘I’d love to go with you. Take a look at North Korea. how?”

-… .

Unlike usual, the darkness looked only at the north without saying a word.

‘What are you doing?’

– A place called Preston Castle.

Darkness turned the blade and looked at himself and continued.

– This is where I built it.

**

He followed Baek Woojin and Daffle to the north wall surrounding Preston Castle and listened to the explanations from Heukam.

– To be precise, it was built by my third owner.

‘A man named Preston?’

-okay. Unlike you, he had absolute talent from the start. As Daffle said earlier, it is true that the demons that ruled the North Sea were eliminated and Preston Castle was built.

‘I did.’

It seems that the legend Daffle spoke of was a legend created by Preston and Darkness together.

‘After that?’

– Built the northern wall surrounding the castle, and protected its inhabitants from monsters in the North Sea and the North. Even if it wasn’t like you, he was very kind to the general public because he had a medical association. but… .

‘but?’

-As my abilities were added to my outstanding talents, he couldn’t understand other warriors.

‘You didn’t understand?’

-While teaching martial arts, if I didn’t see it once and didn’t follow it, I yelled at him and criticized him for not doing his best. He was good, but his personality was not very good.

‘I was a geek.’

Baek Woojin laughed. The world is all the same. Kkondae was everywhere.

– That’s it. Maybe he didn’t want to show his weakness in his later years. He asked me to terminate my contract and left.

‘Can I cancel the contract?’

-If both me, the owner, and the system agree, it will be terminated.

‘I didn’t know that again.’

– Anyway. It feels weird to hear that Preston Castle still lives on.

Darkness looked at the white-covered North with a nostalgic gaze.

‘It’s not about being maintained, it’s about being the ruler of the north. But why are you rejecting the alliance?’

– I don’t know about that either.

“Dapple.”

Baek Woojin took the lead and sang the walking dapple.

“Why is Preston Castle rejecting the alliance?”

“Neither do I.”

Daffle turned his head and frowned.

“They themselves know that Preston Castle, no matter how northern they are, will inevitably fall in front of the Charon Empire, but each time they refuse the alliance without giving a reason. I came here in person to find out why… .”

“Even so, it was too much to come alone.”

“Sorry, I’m sorry. Ah! excuse me!”

Daffle lowered his head and pointed to the small town in front of him. The village was covered in pure white snow and looked like a painting.

“That’s the last town you can stop by before going to the North Face, Runan. Let’s go straight to the inn.”

Daffle guided everyone to the one and only inn in town, without hesitation as to whether he had researched beforehand.

“Hmm… .”

Baek Woojin followed Dapple into the inn. There was a fireplace and it was quite warm inside. At the counter and at the table, several people who looked like mercenaries and hunters were drinking.

“uh?”

One mercenary looked at himself and raised his finger.

“ Baek Woojin? Are you Baek Woojin?”

“Oh, really? It’s Baek Woojin!”

-Eh?

“uh?”

Baek Woojin opened his eyes. heart beats fast He couldn’t understand how his men knew his name for the first time.

“Kah ha ha! I haven’t seen fakes in a long time.”

“It’s similar, but the weapon is wrong. Baek Woojin is not a white sword, but a black sword. They use it without a sword!”

“I have no sincerity. No hat.”

The mercenaries looked at themselves and uttered incomprehensible words.

“These children!”

“stop.”

Moon Ju-young knew the ridicule, so she tried to come forward with her teeth grinding, but Baek Woojin stopped him.

“Dapple.”

“Yes.”

Daffle was smiling softly as if he had anticipated this situation.

“The rumor that Master defeated the master of the divine sword and Ifrit spread throughout the continent. Rumors spread that he was a handsome man with a black coat, a black sword, and black hair, and he earned the title of a black swordsman. Since then, there have been a number of fakes wearing the same impression as Master.””Then you’re saying they think I’m the fake?”

“Yes. A black swordsman cannot appear here.”

Baek Woojin nodded at Daffle’s whisper. Now I understand their laughter. The men were making fun of themselves thinking they were fake Baek Woojin.

– There’s something really weird going on, you’re fake. clerk.

‘In a way, it’s natural.’

He defeated the master of the divine sword and Ifrit, and planted a world tree, the name Baek Woojin spread across the continent, but people do not know his face. It is natural for fakes to spread.

‘If you do this well, there may be a corner to use… .’

Baek Woojin sat down at the empty table with some thoughts. When he didn’t pay much attention, the mercenaries mumbled that it wasn’t fun and started drinking again.

“Fortunately, we have a room. How about resting here today and leaving tomorrow?”

“Do that.”

“all right. Then I will order dinner and come.”

Dapple went back to the counter to order her meal.

“Ah, it’s hard because I can’t understand the words… .”

“I really don’t know what you mean. When did the prosecutor learn the language here?”

“I got it right from the start.”

“It is also the Lord!”

“Because you’re a real scammer… Ah!”

Moon Ju-young admired it, and Mu-yeong-gak grimaced and pulled out a wrinkled, wrinkled object like a can from the pocket of the subspace.

“What is that?”

“Wait.”

The martial artist put the monstrous object on his mouth and stuck behind the mercenaries who were having a conversation. He sighed and nodded, then returned.

“It is a unique interpretation item. It’s out of shape, but I think what those guys say is interpreted. Hey, try it too.”

Ugh, it looks so… .”

Moo Young-gak gave a respirator to Moon Ju-young with a chuckle, but he refused with a grimacing face.

“It’s still better than being stupid!”

“no! You should use this bizarre thing!”

“What if you can’t hear the prosecutor properly?”

“That, that… .”

“Write it red!”

Moon Ju-young, wearing the bizarre interpreter, bowed his head as if he had no choice but to smile.

-Looking at the two of them, I don’t know if this is Earth or Marutun Continent.

‘It’s peaceful.’

**

After a light meal, Baek Woojin went into the room.

“Only an unexpected comeback.”

Seeing the cold air seeping into the room, he burst out laughing.

“Still, Preston Castle was built by you, so it will be convenient in many ways. You know a lot.”

– A few hundred years ago. I don’t know how it would have changed.

“Because it is a place that values ​​authenticity and radish. There will be some left.”

-Hey. It’s over. Or let’s check it out.

“it?”

-Status window!

Darkness flew in front of Baek Woojin. I thought it would be cool to find out what the message about stats changed by getting a piece of Cain meant.

“Oh, yes. That was it.”

Baek Woojin nodded and called up the status window.

– Ugh!

As I was going to scan the attributes and look at the stats, I heard a scream of death from the darkness.

“To overdo it again… Whoops!”

He muttered why, looking at his abilities, and involuntarily let out the same scream.

Body: 91/105 (Superior) (+92)

Swordsmanship: 93/105 (Superior) (+139)

Mana: 92/105 (Superior) (+117)

Five Star: 91/105 (Superior) (+57)

Health: 91/105 (Superior) (+108)

Spirit: 91/105 (Superior) (+103)

Points: 12,000 points.

It wasn’t a matter of character. The limit of stats was raised from 100 to 105.

“Hey, what is this!”

– Crumple… .
