Chapter 243
I Obtained a Mythic Item
Episode 243
Milles Academyâs cadet dormitory with Lee Jae-sangâs guild joint mission just a few days away.
Lee Jae-sang was suffering from a terrible nightmare.
âHeh heh heh hehâ¦â
He sighed heavily, sat down on the bed, and trembled.
It was because the shock from the dream from a while ago still lingered.
My whole body was wet, and my mind was dizzy, probably because it couldnât stand the shock. Jaesang Lee looked at his body with empty eyes while holding on to his heart.
âAgain⦠itâs the same dreamâ¦â
A weak muttering voice fills the room.
The contents of Jaesang Leeâs nightmares were always the same as in the past.
Lee Jae-yi, his father, appears and engages in sparring with himself. He coldly says to himself who has become covered in dirt:
[Grab the sword.]
Grab the sword.
That sentence stimulated Lee Jae-sangâs trauma and plunged him into a deep pit.
Words Iâve already heard.
It was also a word that eventually revealed Lee Jae-sangâs weakness.
Fragments of the past came to Lee Jae-sangâs mind. When he was much younger than he is now, his father, Lee Jae-shin, made demands on himself.
Become a strong radar.
Like himself and like Lee Jae-sangâs brothers.
But Lee Jae-sang had no talent.
In the sparring with his father, which he had every day as a child, he did not always show what he expected. Every time he gripped the sword, his father was disappointed in himself and he was gradually broken.
At the age of 10, he first entered Dalian. Jaeshin Lee told him.
[You are my blood, so you must have great talent.]
However, it didnât take long for his expectations to be met with disappointment.
Lee Jae-sang did not have even the slightest bit of sword talent.
Even unique skills were not inherited.
From then on, Lee Jae-shin no longer expected him.
Instead, she just ignores him, calling him trash for failing to meet her expectations.
His fatherâs cold attitude towards Lee Jae-sang, whose mother passed away, made him hide in a rat hole.
It was from then. What made Lee Jae-sang stutter?
Of course, the more he did, the more his fatherâs eyes grew colder.
After that, I had very little contact with my father.
It was difficult to expect anything from his father when he was barely paying for his school fees. All of my siblings grew up to be the hopefuls of Poongshin, but he wasnât.
There was no fatherly favor or love.
All that was left of him were tools and a small laboratory that smelled of drugs.
Lee Jae-sang further built a wall in his heart and hid in the gap.
So that no one can find you anymore.

The next day, after class at the academy, Jaehyun was blocked by two men seeing Jaehyun for the first time.
He looked ahead and tilted his head. They were the first faces I ever saw.
âWho are you?â
At Jaehyunâs question, the two men wrinkled their faces and said in displeasure.
âI am Lee Jae-hoon, the Class A Raider of Wind God.â
âI am Lee Jae-young of the same rank.â
Jaehyun looked back at his memory for a moment. Lee Jae-hoon and Lee Jae-youngâ¦â¦
I think Iâve heard of it somewhere, but my memory wasnât clear.
Fortunately, the other side revealed his identity first.
âWe are the sons of Jaeshin Leeâs guild master. Lee Jae-sangâs older brother.â
âSomehow, I thought that two raiders from the Wind God Guild had come to visit me. Was the chancellor his brotherâs brother?â
Then I remembered.
Jaehoon Lee and Jaeyoung Lee. They were Lee Jae-sangâs older brothers with a 3-year-old and 2-year-old gap.
People who will often show their faces in the radar newspaper in the future with their tyrannical temper.
âIt doesnât seem like it came for good.â
The two of them seemed to be messing with each other. Iâm not here to tell you something positive.
Jaehyun thought so and asked in a calm voice.
âWhy did the Prime Ministerâs older brothers come to see me?â
âYou didnât think you would dare to go against my father and go over without retaliation, did you?â
âWhat is that all of a sudden⦠Ah. at that time.â
Jaehyun sighed briefly recalling the past.
Jaeshin Lee. It was certainly true that there had been a war of nerves with him a few days ago. He opened the magic and he erased it, maybe.
Apparently, they found themselves because they didnât know that their great father and a mere cadet were having a war of nerves.
âwhat the.â
It was absurd for Jaehyun, but it seemed that there was no more important problem for the two of them.
They surrounded Jaehyun and continued talking.
âIt seems that he is a direct disciple of Yoo Sung-eun, but
he has become more energeticâ¦â âI have never been more energetic. I donât think thereâs any reason to talk like this. If you came here to get into trouble, go. Before you look bad.â
Jaehyun sighed and said. As he waved his hands and spoke, the faces of the two crumpled up.
Eventually, the moment Jaehyun turned away.
Unforgettable stories flowed from their mouths.
âI hear youâre taking care of my trashy little brother.â
Startle.
Jaehyunâs steps stopped for a moment at the harsh words. The two seemed excited as if they thought their provocation had worked.
âI thought I was useless, but I was lucky. I mean, you have a talent for alchemy. Well, you might have approached him to take advantage of him from the beginning, butâ¦â
âI donât think the relationship between the brothers is good. So what do you want to say?â
When Jaehyun opened his mouth and said that, the brothers looked at each other for a moment and were taken aback.
Lee Jae-young suddenly came to his senses.
âDid you approach Lee Jae-sang to use the wind god from the beginning? I heard that you supported Lee Jae-sang from the time he had no foundation.
It wouldnât be possible if you werenât thinking of messing around with something.â
âunder.â
It seemed that the brothers had already investigated Jae-hyun and Lee Jae-sangâs first meeting and everything that had happened since then.
Jaehyun clearly understood.
Lee Jae-sang and his two brothers are by no means family.
The fact that they are more distant than others and that they do not respect Lee at all.
Jaehyun faced the two of them straight with a crumpled face.
He took a step forward and lightly released his mana.
The two brothers also responded, released their magical powers, and shouted.
âHow dare you act like that when you hear whose son we are. Didnât you just call garbage garbage?â
âThereâs nothing to be so hot about. is not it?â
âNo, I have enough reasons to be angry. Chancellor hyung is your family, but he is also an important circle member of Nine. If you say it that wayâ¦â
Jaehyun chuckled.
âMy circle looks out of place.â
Dig!
At that moment, Jaehyunâs new model disappeared and caught the two behind them.
at the same time. Jaehyun grabbed both of them by the nape of their necks and forced them to rub their foreheads against each other.
With a bang, the heads of the two brothers collide and their minds wander.
spinning head. In the midst of the mess, the two seemed not even aware of what had happened.
âI will tell you one thing for sure.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Jaehyun raised an eyebrow and raised his fist again.
I tried to treat him as a colleagueâs older brother, but I decided that I couldnât.
âIâm not scared at all even if you bring your father.â
âKheop!â
âOuch!â
Lee Jae-hoon and Lee Jae-young were frightened and saw Jae-hyun standing behind them.
It seems that I did not choose the right opponent to touch.
The two thought about it almost at the same time.
* * *
After sending the two brothers back to Tyler, Jaehyun thought for a while.
âI never thought Iâd find out why the prime minister stuttered like this.â
Just a moment ago, while he was beating up the two brothers, I asked him about this and that.
they said It wasnât that Lee Jae-sang had stuttered from the beginning.
Lamentation and burden for oneself without talent. And Lee Jae-shinâs pressure.
that it broke him
When Jae-hyeon learned the whole story that he had never known, he felt more and more sorry for Lee Jae-sang.
He himself had been gripped by an inferiority complex.
I longed for the best raiders, but I was pessimistic about myself for not being able to become like them.
Eventually, it gradually eats away at people and destroys them.
âThe Prime Minister must have felt the same way.â
Jae-hyeon wanted to somehow return Lee Jae-sang to his original form.
Even if he had never seen him before, Jaehyun could recall some of him.
Like how innocent he was when he explained alchemy, or how he packed up potions for himself every moment.
Jae-hyun remembered Lee Jae-sang like that. Thatâs why I wanted to help him.
âBut itâs not a matter of what I can do. The chancellor should stand up on his own.â
Unfortunately, Jaehyun knew. In the current situation, the part that he could help him was extremely limited.
If you donât get up on your own, youâll collapse again soon.
Humans are inherently that way.
However, Jae-hyun believed in Jae-sang Lee. he will be able to rise again
He has the strength to step out of his fatherâs shadow and move forward.
That was the conclusion that Jae-hyeon had made while going through Jae-sang Lee, and it was not dependent on his memories before returning.
â¦although I did take a little reference to it.
* * *
Hideout where Jaehyun and Lee Jaesang are missing. Nine members are gathering and having a conversation.
Naturally, the subject was the father-son relationship between Lee Jae-sang and Lee Jae-shin.
âI didnât even think of it. To think that Lee Jae-sangâs father was Lee Jae-sin of the wind godâ¦â¦.â
Kwon So-yul shook his head and said so.
Well, since Lee Jae-sang never revealed anything about his father, it was only natural that he didnât know.
Kim Yoo-jung nodded.
âIknow, right. Looking at it, it seems that Min Jae-hyun knew. How can you not say a word?â
âWell, Jaehyun must have thought of everything.â
When Ahn Ho-yeon said that, Kim Yoo-jung glared at him with her eyes wide open.
âhey. Itâs not because I donât know, itâs just because Iâm sad.â
ââ¦There must have been a reason, but I was a little surprised to hear that.â
Seo Ina also nodded in agreement.
As expected, Kwon So-yul was the most shocked.
âHey, what happened? Even though I went with Lee Jae-sang since the freshman hunt, I didnât notice at all.
Well, even from his point of view, it doesnât seem like itâs very good to bring up such words.â
Moreover, Lee Jae-sang and Lee Jae-shin had the same last name, but everything was different.
It was neither superior in force nor possessed of force.
The field of focus was also completely different.
combat and non-combat. Itâs a completely different position. There was nothing that his colleagues could have guessed.
âAnyway, it didnât look good. Two people.â
Kim Yoo-jung said that and made a serious expression.
Lee Jae-sang trembled at the sight of his father appearing during the guild introduction.
As if the fatherâs existence itself was terrifying.
As a group, there was nothing to worry about.
âThere seems to be something⦠Itâs a family matter, so itâs easy to ask. Letâs leave it alone for now.â
ââ¦that would be nice. Chancellorâs brother must have his own thoughts.â
Seo Ina also nodded.
Jaesang Lee and Jaeshin Lee.
I donât know what happened between the two fathers.
But you donât need to know deeply. To them, Lee Jae-sang stutters, but is just a circle member with a good nature and a lot of worries.
Being someoneâs son or not wasnât such a big deal.

The next day. Finally, on the day of the joint guild mission.
After properly greeting his colleagues, Jaehyun got on the vehicle prepared by Sungeun Yoo.
black van. Its destination was clear.
âAre you ready?â
âOf course. Letâs go.â
The destination is the Red Gate.
It was by far the worst gate ever seen in Korea.
