The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Chapter 613:

Chapter 613:

A strange woman from the World Tree Alliance.

Could it be…

“Is that woman’s name Urd?”

“Hm? How do you know her?”

So the identity of the strange woman was indeed Urd.

“I’ve already clashed with her a few times. She’s still actively operating now.”

“She’s active… Has the World Tree Alliance already occupied more than half of the BattleNet world?”

“The World Tree Alliance? They’ve been destroyed.”

“…Hm? Didn’t you say Urd had awakened?”

What was this?

They were talking about the same person, Urd, but the conversation wasn’t aligning.

“Um… How did Urd awaken in your world?”

“She awoke when the World Tree Alliance occupied 50% of BattleNet. I thought that was the condition.”

“50%…”

“How did she awaken this time?”

At Dongbang Sak’s question, Seong Jihan briefly summarized what had happened.

And after hearing this, Dongbang Sak,

“Hm… It seems she really wants your ability. She must have awakened without her perfect power.”

“Without perfect power… Have you seen her power?”

Dongbang Sak looked at his Taiji Sword at those words.

“Perhaps because the seal isn’t fully released, I don’t remember the detailed process. However…”

Zing…

The screen changed.

And there,

[Everyone.]

The face of an elf with a bright smile appeared.

[The World Tree Alliance has easily occupied more than half of BattleNet without much resistance. Applause~!]

Clap. Clap. Clap.

Across the entire server, she displayed a screen to all players, and was clapping alone.

[My goodness… Try harder next time~! If no force strong enough to defeat the Alliance emerges, I’ll have nothing to save!]

Save?

What was she talking about?

As Seong Jihan frowned,

[Well then, I’ll be closing this server~]

Clap!

As she clapped once,

Swish swish swish…

Intense void began to rise from the screen she had displayed.

[W-What’s this?]

[No… I thought some crazy elf had hacked, but what is this…!]

After Urd’s clap, the void rising from the screen began to swallow the players.

Players tried to counter this, but they were helpless.

[…What in the.]

Only Dongbang Sak, was firmly maintaining his body amidst the flood of void.

And then,

[Oh my?]

Zing…

Around Dongbang Sak, hundreds of pure white eyes appeared.

[This… There might be something to save here?]

The eyes merged into one, turning into a clock, and

Tick. Tock…

As the second hand turned, Urd popped out from there.

And then,

Crack…

The screen began to crack all at once.

The mental image implementation ended after Dongbang Sak raising his sword.

“…I don’t have memories of the battle that followed. So I can’t implement it as a mental image.”

“I see.”

“But certainly, a battle did occur. And I have the feeling that I drove her into a corner.”

Seong Jihan nodded at those words.

Dongbang Sak, who had displayed monstrous power even with all sorts of restrictions from the Martial God.

Assuming he had continued to grow in a free environment, it would be natural for him to possess overwhelming martial prowess.

“However, I ultimately did not achieve victory.”

Crackle…

On the screen that appeared again, Urd, standing on a white clock, was looking up at this side with a relaxed smile.

[Hmm… Is this martial arts that has reached the ultimate? It’s quite valuable, this.]

Urd’s appearance on the screen had less than 10% of her original elf form remaining and was transformed entirely into void.

As soon as Seong Jihan saw this,

‘Ultimate martial arts… That form, it was affected by it.’

He instinctively realized that she had become like that due to being hit by the ‘ultimate martial arts’.

Even though she was positioned on top of the white clock, which was almost like her own domain, she couldn’t recover her body from the void state.

Meanwhile,

“Ultimate martial arts… It seems I reached Infinite at the last moment. But that data is firmly sealed…”

Dongbang Sak lowered his gaze as he looked at Urd on the screen.

An opponent that even he, who had reached Infinite, couldn’t handle.

She ultimately survived the battle with Dongbang Sak, and went further to critique it.

[Hmm. This is good enough to add to my collection, but it’s not the ability I really want~]

[Besides, returning everything to nothingness… That’s what I do best, you know?]

Swish.

As Urd pointed to the side with her hand,

Swish swish swish…

The Black Administrator, in the form of a huge purple helmet, appeared.

[Black Administrator. I order you to reset Server 2101.]

Nod.

As the Black Administrator obediently followed Urd’s words, she smiled and pointed at Dongbang Sak with her finger.

[Ah. And there’s separate data to keep from this server. ‘Save’ that human.]

The Black Administrator nodded again at those words.

As purple light beams were about to extend from his eyes towards Dongbang Sak,

Crackle…

With this, the screen cracked again.

“…Did Urd control the Black Administrator too?”

“It seems so.”

“Hmm… The circumstances are different from here.”

Seong Jihan recalled the administrator meeting.

At that time, the Black Administrator had maintained a sort of neutrality.

Moreover, it was him who had informed about the ‘laziness’ condition through the messenger.

‘Hmm… Or is this all part of Urd’s design too?’

Seong Jihan furrowed his brow.

At the last moment, Urd had mentioned Server 2101.

Considering that was also the number of the humanity Dongbang Sak had led, it seemed the number after humanity might be the ‘server’ number she was talking about.

And,

[…Dongbang Sak might be my senior.]

The Red Administrator, who had been silently listening to Dongbang Sak’s story,

Spoke with a tone of certainty.

* * *

“He’s your senior?”

[Yes… Wait. May I come out?]

“Sure.”

As Seong Jihan opened a part of Blue and Red’s border,

Whoosh…!

Flames rose from inside, and red eyes appeared.

[Dongbang Sak. I have something to say.]

“Hmm…? This is the Red Administrator? I didn’t know you were in symbiosis with him.”

“Well, various things happened. I’ll explain in detail later. Right now, this guy seems urgent.”

“I see. So, what do you want to say?”

As Dongbang Sak looked at the eyes, asking for the question,

[Compared to when you were the emperor of the Murim Empire, is there anything you’re being forced to change now?]

“Forced to change…?”

[Yes.]

“Hmm. I don’t understand what you mean.”

As Dongbang Sak tilted his head at the question,

[There was no example. Alright. I’ll explain using my case as an example.]

The red eyes flashed intensely.

[When I come out of Blue and Red, I develop ambition.]

“…Ambition?”

[Yes. The desire to dominate this BattleNet world arises. By becoming a permanent administrator or replacing the existing order with the Hell.]

“Wasn’t that what you originally wanted?”

Seong Jihan recalled the process of sealing the Red Administrator and asked.

Didn’t this guy keep tempting to replace the existing system with Hell?

[I thought so too. But strangely, when I’m inside here, such ambition doesn’t arise.]

“Huh? Why?”

[At first, I thought it was because I needed to complete Hell research to achieve my goal. But… it was truly strange. Being cooped up here and continuing research suited my nature.]

“…?”

Seong Jihan blinked at those words.

This guy.

First he caused such a ruckus to humanity, and now he was saying research actually suited him?

[And even now, coming out like this, I can feel my mind changing. It’s as if the desire to dominate is forcibly arising.]

“A change of heart. Unlike you, I don’t particularly have anything like that…”

Dongbang Sak thought for a moment, then looked at the Taiji Sword.

“Hmm. But there is one thing that bothers me. I don’t know anything about Infinite. It feels like the path to it is blocked.”

“The path to Infinite, you say?”

“Yes. Although I didn’t gain memories of Infinite from the sealed data… Shouldn’t human martial arts develop even through indirect experience?”

“That’s not usually the case for normal humans.”

“Haha… It was like that for me. But this time, it’s not happening. It feels completely blocked.”

“Hmm…”

The Red Administrator was set to have ‘ambition’.

And Dongbang Sak’s Taiji Sword was sealed to prevent him from obtaining Infinite.

As Seong Jihan was organizing the situation, he thought of Urd and felt sick.

‘If even Dongbang Sak, who reached Infinite, was defeated by her… Can this be won?’

Of course, Stat Blue was a special ability that caused confusion in the system.

But the opponent was a monster showing a completely out-of-spec appearance.

Especially seeing that even Dongbang Sak with his limits released was defeated and ‘saved’,

It made him wonder if she could be defeated at all.

“At this point, isn’t Urd the owner of BattleNet?”

[I also think she’s a being similar to what you described. Especially seeing her giving orders even to the Black Administrator in those memories… She can be considered an out-of-spec transcendent being. However…]

“However?”

[Compared to the appearance Dongbang Sak showed, the current Urd’s power is significantly weaker. She can’t control the Black Administrator, and she’s wandering around looking for the White Administrator. Seeing this, it can be assumed that she’s not yet in a complete state.]

Seong Jihan nodded at those words.

There was indeed a significant difference in power between the Urd that Dongbang Sak showed and the current one.

Although the exact reason wasn’t clear, they needed to find a breakthrough quickly before she became complete.

‘But I have no idea how to subdue that monster…’

As Seong Jihan was lost in thought, recalling the screen he had just seen,

“Whenever you strike Urd, feel free to use me. Not only do I owe you a debt, but I also have a grudge against her. I’ll gladly wield my sword.”

“Hearing you say that makes me feel a bit better. I’ve been worrying about how to deal with Urd.”

“Hmm. But from what I heard earlier, she’s not complete…”

Dongbang Sak pointed his finger outside the Tower.

“How about we launch a preemptive strike right now, at this opportunity?”

“A preemptive strike?”

“Yes. If you and I attack together, could she, in her incomplete state, possibly withstand it?”

A joint attack with Dongbang Sak.

‘That’s not bad.’

While Dongbang Sak seemed insurmountable as an enemy, he would be the best supporter if he joined as an ally and helped attack her.

However,

[He started as an NPC in the Tower… Can such a being go outside the Tower?]

“We’ll have to test it.”

Following the Red Administrator’s point, as Dongbang Sak tried to break through the Tower wall,

“Hmm…?”

His right arm turned dark and then disappeared.

Whoosh.

Seeing this, Dongbang Sak returned to his original position, and his arm regenerated.

“Hmm… It seems my existence disappears if I go outside the Tower.”

“Oh no… That’s unfortunate.”

If Dongbang Sak could come out and help, things would become much easier.

As Seong Jihan was feeling disappointed about Dongbang Sak being restricted by the Tower,

[Stat ‘White Light’ reaches 100.]

[You can expand the authority of light one step further.]

Zing…

A white message window appeared before Seong Jihan’s eyes.
