Chapter 574

The purpose of Blue and Red’s existence was to seal Hell.

Opening the Blue Gate referred to collecting Blue to open the gate to Hell.

And when Blue completely vanished from Blue and Red,

Only a sinister red light flickered ominously.

[I shall open the gate.]

Within the light, the voice of the Red Administrator resonated calmly.

Crackle, crackle…

A crimson current surged up within.

Then there appeared a red eye.

This eye, no different from the Red Administrator’s symbol,

Revealed immeasurable power.

‘…Only this can truly be called infinite.’

Infinite power with which anything was possible if desired.

[Light, disappear.]

The Red Administrator utilized this power according to Seong Jihan’s will.

When he commanded Light and Darkness,

Flash…!

The light of Yggdrasil that had engulfed the entire world

Began to be absorbed swiftly into the red eye.

Flash, flash…!

Namsan, where the light of the roots had receded,

Repeatedly glowed green and then vanished as it was absorbed into the eye.

-Oh!!!

-It’s gone, the light is gone…

-Wow, I almost thought I was gonna die.

-My child collapsed when the pressure increased earlier, we’re heading to the ER now .

-I live in the US, and the green light is gone here too… does that mean it’s also gone in other countries?

People who had been submerged in Yggdrasil’s light immediately noticed the change.

The transformation happened in less than a minute after the red eye appeared.

The Hell manifested and completely extinguished her light before Yggdrasil could escalate her hostage situation globally.

And.

[What… is this.]

Watching the red eye consuming all the root light,

Yggdrasil momentarily lost her words.

To absorb the roots of the Cosmic Tree, which had covered the entire Earth,

In the blink of an eye.

And to target just the roots of the Cosmic Tree, absorbing nothing else.

This was a far harder task than consuming everything indiscriminately.

Yet accomplishing it, in such a short time…

[Are you not Seong Jihan, but indeed the Red Administrator…?]

Watching the overwhelming power displayed by the red eye, Yggdrasil was thrown into confusion.

‘Is this… the power of the Hell I unsealed?’

Shwoooo…!

Seong Jihan gazed blankly at the eye devouring the green light.

A power that grants whatever is desired based on infinity.

If he were to utilize Hell, indeed anything seemed possible.

To think he let such power lie dormant inside Blue and Red.

‘Should I seal this again?’

Couldn’t the power of Hell even suppress the Black Administrator?

If combined with Blue, which could control it…

As Seong Jihan was entranced, gazing at the red eye.

[Blue, wake up. Are you intending to be devoured by Hell?]

The Red Administrator urgently warned him.

[The time is not yet ripe. At your current level, you would only become a slave to Hell, unfit to become its master. Recreate Blue and Red!]

Despite the Red Administrator being able to seize full control if Seong Jihan succumbed to the Hell here,

He desperately tried to dissuade him.

And.

‘…Ah.’

Seong Jihan took heed of the Red Administrator’s advice and quickly regained his composure.

Indeed.

At his current level, he could not fully control Hell.

To covet this power would only lead to being swallowed by it.

Seong Jihan looked at the red eye.

‘Now that the root light is gone, it’s time to seal it again.’

Swish…

As Blue emerged from his body,

The hostile energy emanating from the red eye was suppressed,

And his mind cleared even more.

Had he become entranced by the malevolence emanating from Hell?

As expected.

‘I must restrain it with Blue and Red.’

Swish…

Before his eyes, a blue sword emerged.

Infinite Annihilation God

Sealing Hell

Blue and Red

With the manifestation of Blue and Red, the red eye was sucked back inside.

The newly created Blue and Red, after unsealing, exuded an energy more intense than the original.

‘It’s not easy to restrain Hell once unsealed… If I hadn’t acquired the Blue stat, Blue and Red would have collapsed from within.’

Fortunately, his stat limit increased upon absorbing humanity’s Blue.

Had he attempted to seal the Hell with past capabilities,

Blue and Red would have eventually failed to maintain its form and collapsed from the inside.

Once the Hell had a taste of the world,

Even with the Red Administrator aiding Seong Jihan, it rampaged wildly within.

[From now on, you must be more cautious when wielding this. Before your power is complete, it’s advisable not to use it.]

The Red Administrator advised while observing Hell’s movements.

‘You really wish to remain inside, don’t you?’

[I’ve mentioned several times, I have tasks to accomplish here.]

‘What kind of tasks?’

[Primarily, for the completion of Hell. Subsequently… materialization will occur when you obtain White Light.]

White Light, the power of the White Administrator.

It seemed he had quite an obsession with it.

‘Well, since you’ve helped again this time, I’ll ensure to acquire White Light after completing all tasks.’

[Yes, that ability should aid you greatly as well.]

‘Then…’

Seong Jihan gazed at the sky.

With Light and Darkness, the surface was cleared.

The roots of the Cosmic Tree had been entirely erased.

However.

‘Outside Earth, traces of Yggdrasil remain.’

The green sun visible in the sky.

Currently weakened, reverted to the World Tree pattern, but it was still holding sway over the Earth.

Before that entity could cause more folly, it must be subdued.

‘Shall I go?’

Ziiing…!

Seong Jihan opened a portal and moved to the moon, where the World Tree pattern first manifested.

Then.

[You have come here.]

Whoosh…!

On the lunar surface, where the World Tree pattern glowed grandly,

A surge of life force erupted simultaneously.

[It’s rather convenient. I shall capture you directly.]

Then, rays of light simultaneously flew toward Seong Jihan.

‘So, is this the main body? Each one is formidable…’

Seong Jihan brandished Blue and Red to slice through the beams.

Slice…!

Each time Blue and Red flickered, the green light split as well.

The life force contained within rapidly restored the severed light rays,

‘Still, this can be managed. No need to use Hell’s power.’

[Translator – Asura]

[Proofreader – Gun]

Judging Yggdrasil’s strength, Seong Jihan decided there was no need to unseal again.

The root illumination had been erased globally, which was a strain before.

Fighting Yggdrasil one-on-one like this, the advanced power of Blue was enough.

[Indeed troublesome… You do seem like the Blue Administrator at such times… Who exactly are you?]

Boom! Boom!

After a few more fierce exchanges.

Observing the opponent responding only with Blue, Yggdrasil probed Seong Jihan again.

If it weren’t for the earlier Hell incident, she would definitely think he was the Blue Administrator.

That uncertainty about Red or Blue was causing confusion, wasn’t it?

“Think whatever you like.”

He responded and looked at Yggdrasil, entrenched on the moon.

A massive green light World Tree.

Most of her attacks involved unleashing roots, making it not too difficult to handle.

‘The attacks aren’t threatening, but its regeneration power is insane…’

The issue was that even his attacks made no difference.

Utilizing all martial arts of the Infinite Annihilation God.

Ultimately employing the most potent martial art he could wield,

The Taiji Sword

[That one stings quite a bit.]

Despite bisecting the Cosmic Tree, She sparked and reattached quickly.

Was she the lord of such cockroach-like elves?

Truly regenerating quickly no matter what attacks he unleashed.

‘If Blue were SSS grade, the attacks would land.’

The message said Blue was near SSS, but it stalled at SS.

Had it upgraded, Yggdrasil wouldn’t regenerate indefinitely like this.

‘Why hasn’t it… upgraded?’

Yggdrasil.

Ending her here would ensure no aftermath.

While wielding his sword continuously,

Seong Jihan pondered why the Blue stat rank hadn’t risen.

Thus, the battle dragged on for over half an hour.

[Hehe… This isn’t going to end, is it? Aren’t you going to use the power from earlier?]

Gaining some composure, Yggdrasil observed Seong Jihan intently.

[If you wish to kill me, you must finish it here… Isn’t that right? Being detached from the main body, I’m weak like this. If I return to my original planet, I’ll become several times stronger.]

Being on the moon detached from her original base, she was weaker here.

Returning to her planet would make her significantly stronger, possibly exaggeratedly several times stronger.

Indeed.

The moon, Earth’s satellite, lacked support for Yggdrasil.

It might be an exaggeration to say she’d be several times stronger, but capturing her here was undoubtedly the easiest.

“Dying is what you crave, huh?”

[Hehe… Receiving only weak attacks has become tiresome.]

She provoked Seong Jihan, attempting to draw out Hell’s power.

There seemed to be another motive behind her provocation.

However.

‘Let’s pretend to use Hell to shake this stalemate.’

After battling an infinitely regenerating opponent for an hour, it seemed the right time to stir things up.

Swish…

The blue light on Blue and Red’s edge dimmed.

Within, red light began to expand outward.

Then.

Fwoosh…!

The flames of Hell rapidly engulfed Yggdrasil’s light.

[This is quite formidable. Perhaps… I might really die at this rate?]

Yggdrasil’s reaction, watching her body ignite, was one of amusement.

Indeed.

Despite suffering minimal damage or regenerating rapidly from numerous martial arts of the Infinite Annihilation God,

She quickly succumbed to Hell’s flames.

‘It doesn’t seem to be an act. Surely the fire from Hell is effective against Yggdrasil.’

Just a slight unsealing had this effect.

Unsealing further would undoubtedly inflict real damage.

Watching closely, Seong Jihan considered releasing a bit more of the Hell’s seal,

Swish…

At that time.

Suddenly a violet void began to emerge around him.

And before his eyes,

[A warning from the Black Administrator that further use of that power will prompt intervention.]

A message from the Black Administrator appeared.

Allowed earlier, but no further use?

‘Is it just me being monitored?’

Despite turning a blind eye to the antics of the World Tree Alliance,

The Black Administrator appeared right next to him after trying to use a bit of Hell’s power.

As Seong Jihan faced the message with a firm expression.

[Black Administrator… what brings you here?]

On the moon’s surface where she resided, Yggdrasil displayed wary vigilance at the Black Administrator’s appearance around Seong Jihan.

[Casual interference by a constant administrator in minor disputes should be your concern.]

[I’d appreciate your prompt departure.]

[This conflict is not your concern.]

While labeling the battle with Seong Jihan as a minor dispute,

Yggdrasil urged a quick retreat.

Though warnings were aimed at Seong Jihan,

It was Yggdrasil exhibiting neurotic reactions.

‘Hmm. She’s more wary of the Black Administrator than I expected… Why?’

Observing Yggdrasil’s reaction, Seong Jihan’s eyes glinted with insight.

Though the deep void had arisen,

The Black Administrator had not descended personally, and the warning message was directed solely at him.

Yet her reaction was exceptionally intense.

And soon he noted.

Flash, flash…!

Yggdrasil’s light attacks avoided the void as they approached.

‘Of course, it’s to avoid meddling with the Black Administrator…’

Yet, additionally…

‘Yggdrasil… seems quite averse to contacting the void.’

Her movements were distinctly avoiding contact with the void.

‘Could void be a weakness?’

Perhaps remembering troubles with void previously.

Till now, abstaining from using the void along with Blue

But still, Seong Jihan had a void stat.

Directly received from her cherished Urd.

‘I should use it now.’

Swish…

As violet void emanated from Seong Jihan’s Blue and Red,

[…Black Administrator! Why are you intervening here?]

Yggdrasil displayed a vehement response upon witnessing it.
