“Wow.”

A stream of water continued through the air. Dozens of rivers flowed leisurely, forming a ring, centering on Baek A-rin.

Around the ring, it rains and time seems to have stopped, with densely packed circular water pools.

Baek A-rin looked around and turned the window around.

Bam! The water ring is frozen. The water droplets are the same. The water has been transformed into cold air in an instant.

“Oh.”

I turned the window again. Crack! The ice scattered and became a stream of water.

Not all of them converted.

Half of the ring became water and flowed, and the other half froze the water and followed. The ring of water and ice circled around.

“This is the real thing.”

I can’t stop admiring it.

The dough that Lee Ha-yool made and handed over… Mujang. Baek A-rin took the shape similar to the spear she usually used.

I used it briefly because it was a training facility. The performance was reduced during that brief period of use.

The manual and cold exchange is quick and convenient. It is much faster and more accurate without having to put in more effort than usual.

It is not a simple correction of energy. This window is correcting the operation of the creation. The process of expressing and manipulating the creation is smooth.

Even that is shocking, but there is something else that is truly surprising.

Baek A-rin pulled up the cold air. Crash! The ground she was standing on froze. The water in the air also froze and poured down onto the ground.

A hand raised slightly. The movement has become slightly dull. Even though it is my skin, the coldness tingles my bones.

But it’s much more comfortable than before.

‘Are you taking the burden with you?’

Unlike the water of the sea, the ice of the living sea is a burden. In particular, due to the strong output and some reason, the burden of Baek A-rin is also extreme.

Now that I have the window, I feel less burdened.

-Whoooosh…

Even the burden of that has been reduced.

A ring on his finger. A gift from Lee Ha-yool on the last school year-end party. The warm air flowing from the bright red ruby spread through his body.

At the same time, warmth flowed from the window. As the subject of armament for dealing with the sea, a warm warmth was felt on the window.

The auxiliary function of the window is also enormous, and it also greatly reduces the burden.

‘treasure.’

It’s a concise evaluation. It’s also an objective evaluation.

Did you say you were going to make a weapon similar to the Bonghwa Sword? You really did.

This weapon is in no way inferior to the Bonghwa Sword. No, it is even better than the Bonghwa Sword. Lee Ha-yool didn’t say it was a ‘special product’ for nothing.

Unless it’s a special edition? I haven’t seen it in person, but I don’t think it would be inferior to the Bonghwa Sword.

“… Hehe.”

Even though I was operating the window, the warmth that I felt on my body made the corners of my mouth go up. Thinking about it differently, it was a pretty natural smile.

“Ha Yul-ssi.”

[how is it?]

[Do you see any problems or inconveniences?]

At the small call, Ha-yool came quickly as if he had been waiting. Baek A-rin, who had been caressing the window, lowered her gaze.

Her eyes are closed. However, her emotions can be easily inferred from the way her lips and shoulders twitch whenever she exclaims.

“Problems or shortcomings… As of now, I don’t see any. It’s really great.”

[lol]

Even now, the pride and joy are clearly revealed.

Baek A-rin, who was smiling, pulled Lee Ha-yul into her arms and hugged him tightly. Lee Ha-yul also buried his face in Baek A-rin’s chest as if he had been waiting for her.

“Wasn’t it hard to make? It looks like it took a lot of effort… ”

[Ugh…]

[It’s a little difficult, but it’s okay…]

[Soft]

“Huh, right… That’s right. Until everyone gets here, would you like to rest like this for a bit?”

[yes…]

Baek A-rin sat down on the floor as she gave her arms to Lee Ha-yool, who was quietly surrendering his body to her.

“… … ”

Lee Ji-yeon, who was checking the performance of the weapon, approached him with a bashful look.

Then, Lee Ji-yeon, who was sitting next to him, glanced at Baek A-rin and Lee Ha-yul, who was in her arms.

A hugging position with his face buried in her chest. Because Lee Ha-yul’s body is so small, he fits into her arms like that.

“… Arin? Are you uncomfortable? If you are uncomfortable… ”

“It’s okay. Isn’t Ha-Yul so cute? It’s just right and comfortable to hold in my arms.”

“That, really?”

Sure? I have never felt any discomfort when I have held this rate in my arms several times for medical purposes.

Rather, it filled my arms and gave me comfort and fullness.

It’s warm, soft, and smells good…

“Wasn’t that the case with Jiyeon Unnie too?

“That’s right… big!”

“Hmm… ”

“I spoke out of turn. Ahem.”

Lee Ji-yeon, who was about to answer unconsciously, cleared her throat. Baek A-rin shook her head and rested her chin on Lee Ha-yool’s head and laughed.

“Anyway, I used this for a bit… It’s really amazing. Mr. Ha-Yul? What’s the name of this weapon?”

[Fluffy…]

[…name?]

[Still stable]

“Huh. Is your name stable too?“

Baek A-rin tilted her head, as she naturally assumed that there would be a name.

“Isn’t naming important for establishing uniqueness?”

[Because it’s still an unfinished version]

[Softness]

[The user is slowly training it and also doing the engraving process]

“Aha… I was wondering where the engraving process on the Bonghwa Sword went, but it was pushed back? ”

[that’s right]

The production period for a Bonghwa sword can be as short as a few months or as long as more than half a year.

During the process, the person who will become the owner must visit periodically and go through the process of imprinting.

It is a cumbersome process. That is why Lee Ha-yool pushed back the process of imprinting.

“Then what are you going to name it?”

[Uh uh…]

Lee Ha-yool, who was in my arms, was fidgeting as if she was worried.

[Wouldn’t it be better for Baek A-rin and Lee Ji-yeon to decide who will be the owner?]

“After much thought, I thought the choice was to pass it on? Then… I guess I’ll have to think about it. If you think of a good name, Ha-Yul, let me know.”

[yes…]

The voice of the necklace became hoarse. Baek A-rin patted Lee Ha-yul on the back as he seemed to be getting quite sleepy.

It’s almost dinner time, but I’m feeling sleepy, so I thought I’d put her to bed if I could.

Although they didn’t have a conversation, Lee Ji-yeon didn’t stop Baek A-rin’s behavior.

“There will be dungeon practice again soon, and if you try it out during the entrance exam, you can decide… Oh, right. Sister Jiyeon, shouldn’t the second-year entrance exam be a little bigger?”

“Entrance exam? Ah, yes. The entrance exam in the first semester of the second year was also quite unique.”

Jiyeon Lee, who had been observing Lee Ha-yul, who was sagging in Baek A-rin’s arms with a strange expression, nodded her head.

The contents of the regular entrance schedule are usually set.

The first semester of the first year is mostly about ‘survival and competition’ within the tower’s internal environment.

The first semester entrance exam is ‘contemplation’, which involves fighting with one’s own self.

And the entrance exam for the first semester of the second year is…

“Re-enactment… That was it. Yeah, I still remember it. After that, I came out and spent a few days just lying around in the dorm. ”

“I heard that you had a hard time listening to it. Well, after hearing the content, it seems like it would be like that, right?”

The theme of the first semester of the second year is reproduction. It is a famous event, and its fame has a large share of notoriety.

“It is an incredible experience to experience the magic during your cadet days. Of course, it must be incredibly hard… ”

“Because experiencing a time of chaos is impossible without the cradle.”

African magic. It was also a magic area during the time of chaos.

In the entrance ceremony of the first semester of the second year, the past and space are recreated.

[huh…]

That was the moment.

Lee Ha-yool, who had been half-asleep in Baek A-rin’s arms, suddenly slowly raised his head.

The closed eyes begin to blink and open.

“Ha-yul? Why are you like that?”

[… Yeonhwa, came]

“Huh? Are you going to Yeonhwa? You said you were going to eat out for dinner because of work? ”

“I guess the business ended quickly.”

“Or maybe he finished quickly and came back because he wanted to see someone… ”

Lee Ha-yool, who had escaped from Baek A-rin’s arms, shook his head. Rubbing his eyes to shake off the sleepiness, he quickly walked to the front gate of the mansion.

It didn’t just go out. It was a greeting that was made after calculating the exact time through observation.

“Yeonhwa, are you here?”

“… Ah, Hayul.”

Thanks to that, I was able to have a perfect encounter with Hong Yeon-hwa, who had just entered the main gate.

Hong Yeon-hwa’s complexion brightened as she stroked the spirits that had gathered to greet her.

“You said you were going out for dinner, but you came early?”

“I finished work early. What about dinner? Have you eaten already?”

“No. They haven’t all come in yet. Come in quickly. If you wash up slowly and come out, you’ll be fine. ”

“Oh, thank you.”

“Hehe, hehe… ”

Hong Yeon-hwa, who had been embracing Lee Ha-yul, gave him a brief kiss.

“Yeonhwa, you said you’d be late, but you came early?”

“Yeah. I thought it would take some time, but it took longer than I thought… ”

Hong Yeon-hwa’s gaze turned back, and the end of her words trailed off. Baek A-rin waved her hand peacefully and said hello.

-Gently

The blue winged robe wrapped around her hand.

“Huh?”

Hong Yeon-hwa blinked and turned her gaze to the side.

Lee Ji-yeon. She also had wings that were a nice mix of brown and green.

Hong Yeon-hwa’s gaze turned to Lee Ha-yool.

White winged clothes flutter gracefully in the wind. Very similar.

“… Ha-yul, what are those two?”

“Ah, right! I was going to tell you! I just made it, but it’s too much… ”

Lee Ha-yool, who was trying to explain the weapon, was pinched on the cheek by a hand full of jealousy.

***

The progenitor of the Gyeophwa clan, Hongyeon’s beacon sword is kept in the main house.

The main use is for ceremonial purposes.

Although it cannot perform its original function unless it is the original owner, it is used in various ceremonies as a symbolic achievement of the founder’s beacon sword.

“But I think that kid wrote it?”

The head office of the Gyeophwa clan. The top floor.

Hong Jin-hyeok, the contemporary purifier who was sitting with his back against the guest sofa, shrugged his shoulders.

“Looking back then, the blade was clearly sharp, and the traces still remain… Isn’t it engraved?”

“I know that too, so stop talking.”

“Yeaa.”

Jiyeon Choi, who was covering her head with her hands, snapped at the sound of the murmuring voices.

Hong Jin-hyeok raised both hands and shut his mouth. Choi Ji-yeon sighed deeply and touched her forehead.

Originally, the Bonghwa Sword was a sword given only to the head of the household.

Of course, excellent swords are given to other unit members, including Hong Jin-hyeok, the head of the purification unit, but the Bonghwa sword is a weapon that symbolizes the family.

But I tried to award it to Lee Ha-yul.

He held the Beacon Sword of the First Ancestor and dyed its blade. It means that he dyed the Beacon Sword, which has had no owner since the First Ancestor, and whose owner will never appear.

That sight happened to be during a regular banquet. There were so many eyes watching, so it was impossible to hide it.

‘That’s why I wanted to award it…’

Tradition and symbolism. Important elements in the unification and maintenance of power, but I thought this time was an exception.

This rate has manifested a fear. It is a fear that has progressed to a completely different level of uniqueness, with an output comparable to that of Hong Yeon-hwa.

Must catch.

The relationship between Hong Yeon-hwa and me was already like that. It wasn’t even a political marriage.

So, when Lee Ha-yool had some free time, he sent an official invitation and tried to present it as if it were a gift.

But, before that time came, a big incident occurred.

“Oh, I said that if you save it, it will turn into poop… ”

“No…! I wasn’t trying to save it! I was trying to give it to you properly! Through proper procedures! !”

“I think it’s a bit late to go through that process… ”

“Ah, ahhh…! Who would have thought something like this would happen?!”

Lee Ha-yul, son-in-law, the special demonstrator of the cowardice, the benefactor who corrected the crazy Hong Yeon-hwa.

They say that the child, while possessed of fear, manifested the power of creation.

But they say it even appeared on Mt. Taesan.

The ability to inherit the bloodline has been manifested three times. Why? How? I don’t know. I heard a rough explanation, but I still don’t understand.

I don’t know, but I have it.

In other words, it is no longer just the case of the Gyeophwa family.

‘There is a person who possesses both the fearful sky and the great sea and the mighty mountain? Who, how could you expect that…!’

Jiyeon Choi suppressed the urge to tear out her hair.
