My Range is One Million
Chapter 135 - The Successor 4
His ancestor was unbelievably powerful. Although Jaehwang wanted to ask him something, it seemed too dangerous for him to even get close. It was as if he was trying to keep him away from something he was trying to protect. Jaehwang hoped he would be able to get to talk to him the second time around.
"Amazing!" Jaehwang said, seeing the impact of his arrow when it crashed into the building.
"You are not welcome here! Begone!"
Every single day was a tricky situation, their practice had left them covered with their own wounds and blood.
"Cough… Cough…"
—If you keep going like this you'll die!
—I'm not done yet…
Jaehwang said with an exhausted tone. He wanted to try and learn something from him even if it meant that he had to put his own life in danger.
There were some times that the situation itself was unavoidable. Two arrows had pierced through his legs and he fell down, he sacrificed his legs to protect his neck. It was like a miracle and he was able to regain his consciousness after he lost it when those arrows had hit him.
It happened quite a few times, his ancestor would stop his attacks and he would use the time to quickly heal himself. Soon enough, their eyes had met for the very first time.
"Hello, I am your ancestor who was left with a great debt like the rest of your family."
"Wow…" Jaehwang greeted him politely to hide his shock. He was his grandfather, it was easy to recognize that he was his descendant.
Jaehwang remembered all of their family's history that involved him and he even told him more.
"And that's about it."
"Wow…"
He told Jaehwang that he was the last descendant of their family.
"Our family… someone has to help them. Everyone has been cursed… when will it end…" His ancestor said with a sad tone. A tear fell down his face and he took a moment to get himself together…
"Therefore, you have to leave this place! Time is running out." It was hard to listen to what he just said but Jaehwang knew he couldn't just leave.
"I can't do that. I'm going to revive our family again. They need help, I can't back down." Jaehwang said, his ancestor just looked at him for a moment and then said,
"Alright, how strong are you? If you don't have strength like our ancestors then it'll be no use for you to stay here." His ancestor explained and Jaehwang then replied,
"I can do this, I know I can. Don't worry."
He was determined however, he didn't simply need just the strength to succeed. His father and grandfather's legacy should live on. All of his ancestors were counting on them and Jaehwang was their last hope.
"This is the fate of our family's strength… it would lead you to where you need to go but, it will control you like a puppet.
"I will never become a puppet!" Jaehwang declared. His ancestor could see the determination in his eyes.
"That's good to hear. Now, let's destroy this terrible fate," His ancestor replied.
Since then Jaehwang and his ancestor decided to work together. Although they didn't think too much into detail about how they could fix everything, they didn't plan on turning back. With all their determination, they spent their time training and learning everything that they needed to know.
Jaehwang monitored his skills through the status window every day to watch his progress. As he continued to train for hours each day, he improved faster and faster. He was so focused that he didn't notice the time passing by.
Jaehwang stayed at his ancestor's house in the meantime.
"These are monsters coming from space to invade the earth… From one of the three worlds… Maybe we could all work something out and live peacefully," His ancestor said.
"If that happened then the three worlds would continue to collide…"
"This may just be a guess but maybe in the future things will be different…"
They were only making small talk but Jaehwang was actually hoping that it would happen too. It made him think that their time working together could be unwillingly shortened. That made him train even harder so one day, his ancestor and he would be close once again.
Jaehwang looked over at a vase that had a fancy pattern engraved into in it. "What is that?"
"That's something I've been keeping. I thought it would be completed thanks to you because of the piece of it that was missing but it wasn't able to rescue our ancestors…"
"?" He didn't get what he meant, he just opened the vase and saw two well-defined circles inside of it. Jaehwang picked them up but they felt so coarse and rough that he had to drop it back.
"All this time I've been keeping them safe, they are now completely invincible so they'll never break."
The last piece that should complete them was stepped on and shattered. He handed them to Jaehwang and said, "Take them."
Jaehwang felt like he was sweating before he calmed himself down. The strength inside of the broken pieces was still present. It was still so strong that it was overflowing.
"I can't take this," Jaehwang said as he stepped back. He knew that his ancestor made a thoughtful decision when he gave it to him but he couldn't bring himself to take it.
—T-That's something very rare and powerful
The spirit said with her voice shaking.
—What?"
—It's not safe! All of its strength is from a crystalloid! Don't take it!
She warned him and Jaehwang looked at the two white pieces in fright.
There's a legend inside of it.
—It's a Blue Dragon artifact. We know that. I think it is. It's something your ancestor was looking for to help them! It soon became popular and became a god-like beast. And… from what we've seen it became a leader over everyone… Darn… I.. I have to get some sleep. I can't keep going like this for much longer.
She said exhaustively and disappeared from Jaehwang's head.
"Take it," His ancestor insisted.
[Blue Dragon Special Artifact]
Quality of Material: ???
-Special Skill:
"There's no information on it." Jaehwang couldn't exactly how powerful it was. Just thinking about how powerful it could be made him tremble in fear. He thought that all the artifacts in the world won't be able to stand against this one.
"I will now convey our family's last secrets. Kneel." His ancestor said as he brought Jaehwang onto his knees. After that, his ancestor placed it on his back taking away all of his stress and pain. "Lower your head."
"I don't know about this…"
"I said lower your head!" His ancestor shouted, looking at him with an intense glare. Jaehwang then quickly lowered his head.
"Alright alright." Jaehwang then tightly closed his eyes.
"I am a part of the 32nd generation of my family. My ancestors are in great debt and our new successor, Jeon Jaehwang, has dedicated his life to helping us out of this debt. He is the successor! Give him the family's powerful 'divine arrow'!"
Pang pang pang!
He shouted and suddenly, a white light emerged in both of his palms before it enveloped him.
"Ouch…" An energy Jaehwang had never felt before flooded through his head, causing him to feel great pain.
"Stop it!" His ancestor said in a loud voice scaring Jaehwang. He then started to bleed from his mouth and his eyes became bloodshot. He felt as if he was about to explode.
"Make him the successor, now!"
A moment later Jaehwang's head became completely blank as if everything was suddenly erased. There was a feeling as if lava was flowing through his head, however, he realized that it was a piece of the 'Divine Arrow' that he mentioned. He felt like his skills were also increasing.
This wasn't something he could just learn. This was realized thousands of centuries ago.
"Wow…" He was still in pain but he already felt so much more powerful.
[Legend skill awakened.]
***
—Did they become extinct?
—I'm not sure.
"Hm…"
Jaehwang stood up to his feet. He was feeling much better than he was earlier that day. He closed his eyes and felt as if he was back at that time. Inside his memory, his ancestor said to him, "I want to rest now."
"…"
"My descendant. Only you can help me find peace," He said to Jaehwang.
"I can't do that," Jaehwang replied, denying his request. He couldn't take on that responsibility. He had no idea how he could master his new skill.
To master the skill, he would have to train harder than he ever had before, however, his ancestor didn't understand how it could be so hard to him. Maybe he wasn't in the right place without the spirit by his side. After thinking about that, he spoke to him again.
"You're not a bad person…" His ancestor said, looking at him with a melancholic expression.
Although he didn't know him so well, he could understand him. If he had no confidence then they and their ancestor would have never had any hope. But, he wasn't worried about that.
Their ancestor's fate had now disappeared.
"Now that you have the Blue Dragon artifact, you will not have the same terrible fate as us."
"Don't worry."
"Listen. You're not tangled up in the same trouble as them but there's still a lot of trouble in the world that needs some fixing."
"Yes," Jaehwang said in agreement to what his ancestor said.
"Find them. Them so… so you can destroy them with your new arrow."
