Episode 10: I’m Curious about the Lineage (1)

The next day, full-scale training with the Heukcheon family began.

The training method was unusual, befitting the Heukcheon Group, a world-class company and ruler of East Asia.

More than 20 trainers and doctors formed a team and moved only for Kwon-wool.

There were also a number of people you might have heard of in the media.

By introducing state-of-the-art science and technology, he grasped everything about the body and found the optimal training method.

After the training, dedicated sports massage therapists worked together to loosen Kwon Kwon-wool’s knotted muscles and apply expensive medicinal materials to restore his body under a systematic plan.

‘This is something only high-ranking hunters receive.’

I heard that the top hunters, who are the center of the guild, are treated similarly.

Although qualitatively and quantitatively, Kwon Kwon-wool was far superior.

It was obvious that it would cost a lot, but the Heukcheon Group was not a place to be narrow-minded about things like this.

‘There is a reason why hunters spend expensive money.’

Having a dedicated team just for you was a lot more amazing than you thought.

Gwonwool’s abilities increased day by day. When the health blood and the efficacy of Yeoui-seok were added to this, the speed increased even more.

It was even to the extent that Gwon-wool had to hide his abilities as part of it.

‘There’s nothing good about showing healthy blood.’

Healthy blood is a trump card that must be hidden until the end. There was nothing good about being caught.

After physical training, I always went to Yonghyeon Military High School. There, he smashed wooden dolls and raised his proficiency in Hyeonryong Ascension.

‘The level of skill is expressed as a castle.’

1 star to 10 stars.

Beyond that is called polarity and was called the transcendental stage.

‘In order to make a debut in a Platinum Dungeon, you must learn Hyeonryong Ascension to 7 stars.’

Kwon Wool-wool put more time and effort into Hyeonryong Ascension Sky than physical training.

He was able to quickly raise his physical abilities thanks to Health Blood and Yeo Eui-seok, but there was no other way to use his skills other than by using them a lot.

‘I’m fortunate that the title of Yonghyeon Mugo is effective.’

With this title, the rate of skill proficiency increases within Yonghyeon Armory increases by up to 50%.

Thanks to this, Gwonwool was able to quickly increase his skill proficiency.

It was a time when I was so busy that I couldn’t open my eyes.

“Kwon Han-ul, we will start teaching today.”

Joo Ha-yeon said to Kwon-ul. Kwon-wool was puzzled and asked.

“A lesson? Enough training already… … .”

“You’ve trained your body enough, now it’s your turn to pamper yourself.”

“Inside?”

Joo Ha-yeon nodded and continued talking.

“The blood relatives of the Dark Sky need dignity and intelligence to match.”

In an instant, goose bumps ran through my body. Kwon-wool looked at Joo Ha-yeon with a puzzled face.

“From today, I plan to start classes in liberal arts, etiquette, and language and humanities.”

oh my god.

Kwon Wol’s face turned white.

* * *

It’s obvious, but Kwon-wool has lived a life that has built a wall with his studies.

He only received compulsory education, and after that, he continued his life as a hunter.

What Hunter needed to know was how to kill monsters, not English words.

But now you’re here to study?

It was enough to give goose bumps on Kwon-ul’s body.

‘I never thought I’d meet an ambush in an unexpected place… … As expected, it is difficult to become a blood relative of the Dark Heaven.’

huh? uh, this?

But once I started, it was worth doing.

“Kwon Han-ul, you have a very good memory.”

No, it wasn’t worth doing.

“… … Did you already memorize everything?”

I absorbed it like a jok-jok sponge taught by Joo Ha-yeon. For confirmation, Joo Ha-yeon’s problems were all correct.

I memorized all the complex dining etiquette and greetings of each country with just one look.

Not only memorization subjects, but also fields that require application were perfectly done.

Come to think of it, I’ve never had a problem with poor memory or lack of understanding in my life.

Perhaps Kwon-wool’s qualities were not in his body, but in his head.

“I think Kwon Han-ul would have accomplished something even if he wasn’t a Hunter.”

Even empty words were embarrassing. Gwon-ul said while holding the teacup brought by Joo Ha-yeon.

“It must be because the tea is so effective.”

Saying so, I took a sip of tea. Messages came to mind with a refreshing scent.

＜Healthy Blood (健康血) detects food!＞

＜This food has great energy!＞

＜The detoxification power increases by 0.5!＞

＜Poison resistance increases by 0.5!＞

Stir-fried sprouts of the World Tree sapling.

Gwon-wool has been drinking this tea frequently these days.

It’s not just tea. I made a special request to the chef of the mansion and ate only foods that were good for detoxification.

It was to develop resistance to ingesting the inside of the Imoogi.

‘Currently, my detoxification power is 5. Poison resistance is 6.’

To what extent should the detoxification power and poison resistance be raised in order to consume the Imoogi’s inner layer?

I couldn’t even get a clear idea about it.

But, I just felt it.

I have warned that there is still not enough true black dragon blood.

Even so, Gwon-ul was not in a hurry. After all, it’s just a matter of time.

“Kwon Han-ul, there is a call request.”

“Couldn’t it be Kwon Ji-seok?”

“you’re right.”

It wasn’t a person I wanted to deal with, but I was curious about what business he was calling.

Besides, there was something I really wanted to check.

“Please connect me.”

Joo Ha-yeon held out a cordless phone. As soon as I answered the phone, I heard Kwon Ji-seok shouting.

-hey! Why are you taking it so late!

“I got it for ignoring it. Thank you.”

– What, what is it? How dare this guy talk back… … .

“Rather than that, congratulate me.”

-What kind of bullsh*t are you talking about all of a sudden?

Kwon Ji-seok said to Kwon Ji-seok, who was puzzled.

“Have you not heard? This time, I learned all of the Black Dragon and Twelve Dances at Yonghyeon Military Academy.”

Suddenly the phone went quiet. In response to the expected reaction, Kwon-wool raised one side of his mouth.

there is no way you don’t know

Rumors that Kwon Gwon-ul had mastered all of the Twelve Seungmu of the Black Dragon and won a complete victory against the blood were now spreading throughout the Heukcheon family.

“Why are you not saying anything? Could it be that the phone was disconnected?”

-… … .

“Well, the second son of the great Vice President Kwon Hyuk probably won’t keep his mouth shut because he has nothing to say.

Joo Ha-yeon, who was by her side, was very embarrassed. It was clear that he had a face that wanted to ask if he had such a bad personality.

– Rice, nothing special Come on, you’re acting proud!

“Ah, this was nothing. Then, of course, you must have learned all the secret levels, right?”

Silence fell again. It was perfect for teasing, so Kwon Kwon-wool moved on to the next thing because the conversation wouldn’t go on like this.

“So what’s the matter?”

-you! Didn’t you receive an offer of an Imoogi from your grandfather this time?

“Yes, by the way.”

– Sell that to me.

“I don’t like it.”

Kwon-wool flatly refused.

There are things in the world that can never be obtained even if you spend billions of dollars.

The inner hem of the Imoogi was such a thing. Selling it for money was the business of an idiot in the world.

– Think straight. The inner end of the Imoogi is poisonous, so it must be detoxified. However, it is not difficult to decipher the inner end of the Imoogi.

“Then do you have a way to detoxify the poison?”

– Do not have it. So I’m not talking to you?

Kwon Ji-seok’s voice was full of confidence.

Kwon-wool admired inwardly. Even if he rots, he is said to be a direct blood relative of the Heukcheon family, so he has his own potential.

“I have no intention of selling it.”

-what? hey! Are you crazy!

“I’m not crazy, so I’m not selling. Isn’t it?”

– This bastard really!

In the end, Kwon Ji-seok started to get angry, as if his head was heating up.

-That’s the thing I’ve been aiming for since long ago! So I managed to find a way to decipher it. I mean you took it!

“Shouldn’t you have found it sooner?”

– And man! It was found by our Black Sky group! It’s not something for you to take!

Kwon-wool’s eyes were filled with annoyance.

Even though he awakened the Black Dragon Blood and learned to the secret level, Kwon Ji-seok still treated Kwon-wool as a stranger.

-Shut up and call the account number right away. Otherwise… … .

“Kwon Ji-seok, what you just said is quite unpleasant to hear.”

Suddenly, Joo Ha-yeon intervened. She said to Kwon Ji-seok on the other side of the phone.

“Something like you? After all, that inner circle has the right to Kwon Kwon-wool. Isn’t it Kwon Cheon-nim’s father, Kwon Cheon-nim, who defeated the Imoogi and obtained the inner altar?”

-Ha, Ha-yeon, how could you speak loudly to me… … .

Kwon Ji-seok’s voice trembled in shock.

However, the shock he received was nothing compared to Kwon Kwon-wool.

-Boo, obviously the traitor got the secret, but… … You gave it to your grandfather as a present! It doesn’t matter anymore!

Kwon Ji-seok refuted Joo Ha-yeon’s words. Not knowing that the more you do it, the uglier it looks.

-Uh, hand it over to me anyway! You won’t be able to eat anyway! Then leave it to the right person!

Kwon Kwon-ul felt annoyed. I need to ask something about Gwoncheon soon. I couldn’t keep dealing with Kwon Ji-seok forever.

“What are you going to do if I consume my sweet?”

– I told you to stop talking nonsense and hand it over to me!

“Come to think of it, I think I said something similar a while ago. Did you say you wouldn’t be able to learn the secret level at Yonghyeon Military High School?”

A third silence fell. It was a bit shorter this time.

-This, this bastard! are you kidding me

Kwon Ji-seok vented his anger to the fullest.

-If you are so confident, where did you try it once again!

“What will you do if you eat it?”

-under! Then I’ll do anything you ask! Even if I ate it anyway, I’d be dead soon!

“Don’t be so blunt, make it clear. If I succeed in absorbing the inner world of the Imoogi, you must listen to my one request unconditionally.”

-good! I will do that for you! If you really succeed in absorbing Naedan!

bang.

The phone hung up with a loud sound. Kwon-wool handed the phone to Joo Ha-yeon and asked.

“You said that the person who obtained the Imoogi’s inner altar was my father?”

Joo Ha-yeon let out a long sigh as if she had made a mistake.

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Why did you keep it a secret?”

“It was the Chairman’s order.”

and added

“Do you remember when I said that there are often blood relatives who debut in platinum level dungeons?”

Gwonwool nodded.

“One of them was Kwon Cheon. And the monster that came out of the dungeon where he had his debut match was a serpent.”

It was just amazing.

‘… … My father said he cleared the platinum level dungeon by himself?’

Clearing a Platinum level dungeon alone is a difficult task, even within the Heukcheon group, to the extent that it is said to happen ‘often’.

But one of them is his father, Kwon Cheon.

‘What kind of person was my father?’

Arriving at the Heukcheon Group, I was curious about my father for the first time.

Kwon Kwon-ul, who had been immersed in thought for a long time, murmured briefly.

“By the way, what should I ask of Kwon Ji-seok?”
