The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Chapter 620:

Chapter 620:

‘I didn’t expect a rollback.’

Server rollback.

This meant the situation in Server 4212 could be reverted to a day ago.

‘I was worried about Urd, but this works out well.’

When he came to Ark through emergency inspection, Urd had clearly watched the server management device enter Seong Jihan.

If he returned to the original world, she would surely target this…

‘If the entire server is rolled back a day, will she forget about this too?’

That would make her manageable.

Thinking this, Seong Jihan proceeded with the rollback.

Then,

[Rolling back Server 4212.]

[100 White Light will be consumed.]

Flash…!

Pure white light leaked from Seong Jihan’s body, resonating with the server access device.

‘Half of what I worked hard to gather is gone for the rollback.’

But it was not a situation where he could avoid it.

Seong Jihan swallowed his regret and watched the White Light disappear.

[Server 4212 has been rolled back.]

[Do you want to reconnect to the server?]

When Seong Jihan pressed yes, additional messages appeared.

[The player himself is attempting to connect. Connection through avatar is recommended.]

[Player’s avatar is not registered. Do you want to connect to the central server to create an avatar?]

‘That won’t do.’

Although he was interested in creating an avatar, he had no intention of connecting to the central server for that.

The Red Administrator had entered Hephaestus and scouted the central server, causing the Infinite Sword to appear.

If Seong Jihan touched the central server here, an even bigger problem might arise.

As Seong Jihan refused avatar creation,

[Connecting to Server 4212 with the main body…]

Whir…!

Light flashed from the server management device, and Seong Jihan’s body slowly disappeared.

Soon after,

‘…I’m back.’

Seong Jihan was summoned back to the place with the Galactic Sword Scar trace, where he had been sent through emergency inspection.

‘Has it really been rolled back? Neither Urd nor Id is here.’

Just before leaving, Id had been trying to send Seong Jihan to Ark somehow, and Urd was breaking the light curtain to prevent this.

But in the place he returned to, neither of them was present.

[It seems your position wasn’t rolled back. If it was a day ago, wouldn’t you have been training with Dongbang Sak?]

‘That’s right.’

This place was where the server access device connected, so it was different.

Had everything else gone back a day?

To verify this, Seong Jihan first returned to the ‘Tower’.

Then,

“You’ve come back quickly.”

Dongbang Sak greeted Seong Jihan, stroking his beard.

“Come back again?”

“Didn’t you end the mock battle just before dying? I thought you ended the game because you died too much…”

“In a mock battle, if you die, you die. I wouldn’t force-quit. But did I suddenly disappear?”

“Yes. The mock battle ended just before the sword grazed you.”

Seong Jihan nodded at those words and opened his stat window.

Including the 100 White Light consumed, the Blue value used to burn the light clocks was reflected as it was.

‘This wasn’t rolled back either.’

It seemed Seong Jihan himself was completely excluded from the rollback.

After checking his status, he looked at Dongbang Sak.

“I saw the Infinite Sword.”

“Hmm…? What? You saw the Infinite Sword? What do you mean?”

Disappearing suddenly during training, then opening a mock battle again and saying he saw the Infinite Sword.

At first, Dongbang Sak looked at him as if he couldn’t believe it, but

“Actually, this world has been rolled back now…”

As Seong Jihan started explaining what happened in ‘Ark’, his expression quickly became serious.

“Ark… So this world was created by them…”

“It seems so.”

“The humans of the Murim Empire era were 2101, so the server number then must have been 2101…”

Dongbang Sak recalled the past, then,

“But you say the Infinite Sword’s form was transparent?”

He showed interest in the Infinite Sword Seong Jihan said he saw.

“Yes. I’ll show you.”

Zing…

Seong Jihan tried to display a screen and play back the scene he saw, but,

[‘Ark’ area playback is not possible.]

The BattleNet system was controlling information about Ark.

“Hmm. They won’t even let us play back their area.”

“Hmm. Then perhaps, mental image implementation… would that be possible?”

“Like what you used to do, Dongbang Sak?”

“That’s right. At your level, you should be able to do it quickly. I’ll teach you.”

Perhaps because he missed the chance to see the Infinite Sword right in front of him, Dongbang Sak was very proactive.

“Alright.”

So, held by Dongbang Sak, after training for mental image implementation for a few hours,

Zing…

Seong Jihan was able to display something different from the earlier screen.

“As expected, you learned quickly.”

The appearance itself was similar to BattleNet’s, but a bit hazier in form.

Dongbang Sak smiled gladly while stroking his beard seeing this, then

“Is this… the Infinite Sword?”

Seeing the Infinite Sword with only its handle floating, his eyes widened.

And as the sword moved, completely extinguishing the Hell fire,

“…I’m sorry, but could you show me that scene again?”

“Sure.”

He requested Seong Jihan to show the Infinite Sword again several times.

After watching about 20 times,

“Hmm… Thank you. That’s enough now.”

He thanked Seong Jihan, then

“May I do some personal training for a while?”

As if he had some insights after seeing the Infinite Sword, he said he would train separately.

‘He figured something out just from seeing that briefly?’

As expected.

He thought he’d discover something if he showed this to Dongbang Sak, and it was going as expected.

“Alright. Then the top floor of the Tower…”

“Ah. Don’t worry. I’ll continue with that. I’ll drive away those who beat the ‘Snake’.”

Seong Jihan nodded and was about to give way to Dongbang Sak.

At that moment,

[Blue Administrator. Could you ask him something?]

‘What should I ask?’

[The server management device installed in your chest. It doesn’t seem visible to his eyes… How about checking once?]

That much was fine.

Seong Jihan pointed to where his chest was with his finger.

“Dongbang Sak. Can you see this by any chance?”

“…? What are you talking about?”

“Isn’t there something like a screen floating near my chest?”

“Hmm. I don’t see anything like that at all. Ah… Is the server management device you mentioned still there?”

“Yes.”

“It’s not visible to my eyes.”

Was this perhaps only visible to the eyes of the light clan?

[It seems so. But you can’t keep that stuck in your chest, can you? If Urd or Id sees it, they might notice the rollback.]

‘Right. I need to store it somewhere.’

Pop.

Seong Jihan detached the server management device installed in his chest.

A white glowing square panel immediately came into his hand.

The server management device, looking like a tablet PC in size.

“Inventory.”

Seong Jihan tried to put it in his inventory just in case, but,

[This item cannot be stored in the inventory.]

As expected, it wouldn’t go in.

‘But it’s a bit much to carry around.’

The reason Urd was searching for the White Administrator seems to be because of the server management device.

If she encountered him and realized he had this, it was clear what kind of havoc she would wreak.

‘Right now, Urd is just being lenient to nurture me.’

Organizing what he heard in Ark, just like the Red Administrator and Dongbang Sak’s Infinite Sword became Urd’s collections, Urd’s goal was probably to preserve Seong Jihan’s power in the same way.

So until now, she’d been relaxed while checking Seong Jihan’s abilities, but if she learned he has the server management device, she was likely to pressure him much more intensely than before.

‘So I need to hide this…’

Where would be the most secure place to put it?

After pondering for a while, Seong Jihan thought,

‘Ah. I could put it there.’

He recalled a place.

* * *

The top floor of the Tower Of Martial Gods.

That place, which had become deserted since the game type ‘Tower’ was created,

Seong Jihan brought the server management device there.

‘Since you have to clear the Tower by beating Dongbang Sak to challenge the Tower of Martial Gods…’

To challenge this place, one had to first overcome Dongbang Sak in the Tower.

Seong Jihan saw the top floor of the Tower of Martial Gods as the most suitable place to store the server management device.

‘This place should be fine for sure.’

Swoosh.

Seong Jihan looked around the empty top floor and placed the server management device on one side of the floor.

It stood out conspicuously on the desolate top floor, but be didn’t particularly think about hiding it further here.

‘If someone breaks through to this point, it’s over anyway.’

If light clan members like Urd or Id could break through Dongbang Sak and reach the top floor, they’d eventually find it no matter how he tried to hide it here.

‘But I haven’t actually used it here.’

Wondering if there was a way to utilize it, he touched the screen.

Then,

Just like when Id tried to log in, a square box popped up from the white panel.

[Insufficient White Light.]

[Cannot log in to the server management device.]

Whoosh…!

The box where the login account should be written disappeared.

The server management device was just emitting pure white light.

‘Is it because White Light was consumed for the server rollback… This seems like some kind of consumable resource.’

100 disappeared during the rollback, requiring ability points to log in to the server management device too.

‘Hmm… I don’t need to log in right now, but I should establish more routes to obtain White Light for later.’

Currently, White Light came automatically through the game type ‘Tower’.

When reaching 200 White Light, seeing it increase by a few each day seemed sufficient,

But seeing it disappear as a consumable like this, the supply from the Tower alone seemed insufficient.

‘What method could there be…’

As Seong Jihan was lost in thought,

Zing…

[Blue Administrator. A problem has arisen. Can you communicate now?]

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

A message arrived from the White Administrator, or more precisely, Id’s avatar.

‘Since the server management device is here, I should receive the communication downstairs.’

After going down to the lower floor, Seong Jihan,

“What’s the problem?”

Connected communication with Id.

[Well… It seems I was caught by Urd.]

“…? What do you mean?”

[…Look at me.]

Zing…

A screen played in the pure white window,

And the other party revealed their appearance inside.

A huge mouth and jaw.

And below that, a strange creature with two arms attached.

This was the appearance of Id’s avatar that Seong Jihan had seen several times.

“Why that form? It looks exactly the same as when I saw you last time.”

[…No. It’s not.]

At Seong Jihan’s words, Id slowly opened his lips.

Then,

[My teeth… have all disappeared.]

Where the light teeth should have been, it was completely empty.

‘Surely, Id’s teeth had exploded and the server management device was created.’

It seemed those didn’t regenerate even after the server rollback.

As Seong Jihan was looking at the missing teeth,

[They’re gone. Gone. They’re gone…! Surely, my teeth. I don’t remember them being pulled out…!]

Id was in panic, rummaging inside his mouth with his hands.
