Chapter 467

The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2

[As a Constellation Candidate, you have overcome a Great Constellation.]

[By clearing an impossible feat, you have gained the qualifications to become a temporary Administrator.]

‘Although they say it’s an impossible feat, it was actually easier than I expected.’

Great Constellation Dragon Lord.

He was definitely a powerful being, but he was no match for Seong Jihan who had fought against Martial God.

Knowing this well, the Dragon Lord tried to avoid being summoned with various excuses.

In the end, when Seong Jihan even revealed his heart, the Dragon Lord summoned him while setting up a trap.

The Ice Breath prepared with the intervention of the Green Administrator would have been quite a hindrance if not for the Stat Azure, but…

With that shattered, the battle with the Dragon Lord was practically decided.

The only issue was that the Dragon Lord shamelessly fled indefinitely, dragging out the time.

‘Thanks to the Red Administrator, it ended easily though.’

Now the real problem began.

As Seong Jihan watched the messages for a moment,

[The existing Administrators begin voting on the player’s temporary Administrator qualification.]

Flash!

With a burst of light, the world around Seong Jihan began to change.

[The Black Administrator expresses their will.]

[The White Administrator expresses their will.]

The most noticeable change was the contrast of black and white dividing the world in half.

The sunlight illuminating the Dragon Lord’s planet had disappeared at some point.

To Seong Jihan’s left was complete darkness without a single point of light.

In stark contrast,

On the right, a pure white light completely illuminated the world.

Although only messages about the Administrators expressing their will appeared, the world had completely transformed in an instant.

‘How overwhelming.’

Seong Jihan felt the power of the Permanent Administrators indirectly and realized they were on a different level.

If they wanted to, his body could be split in half right here.

‘But since it said existing Administrators, shouldn’t Green also come?’

While he was thinking quietly with his arms crossed,

[An avatar of the Green Administrator descends.]

Shh…

A single green leaf floated in front of Seong Jihan’s eyes.

While Black and White expressed their will, Green descended, but…

The presence of the Green Administrator was extremely faint.

To the point where the light and darkness could easily erase it if they wanted to.

And,

Shwooo…

Green light spread from the leaf and,

“As expected, the Black and White Administrators are amazing.”

The green-haired elf that Seong Jihan had seen before, Yggdrasil, appeared before his eyes.

“Even if I go through the trouble of sending an avatar, it’s completely overwhelmed by the Permanent Administrators’ will.”

With the three Administrators revealing themselves like this,

– Oh… could this be…

– Is he being selected as an Administrator? For defeating a Great Constellation?

– I heard rumors before that if you overcome a Great Constellation as a Constellation Candidate, you can become an Administrator, but…

– Wow, we’re watching this live broadcast, this is crazy;

– No way, how can a mere human become an Administrator…

Seong Jihan’s BattleTube showed explosive reactions.

[The simultaneous viewer record for BattleTube has been broken.]

Seong Jihan, who saw the message about breaking a new record due to the full attendance of the Administrators,

Turned his gaze away from here and looked at Yggdrasil.

“Why did you even dispatch an avatar?”

“Why else would I come?”

Yggdrasil smiled at his question.

“I came to see with my own eyes if you’re colluding with Red.”

“And if I am?”

“Then… I will actively cast an opposing vote.”

Come to think of it, this was a vote.

“Wasn’t the method of becoming a temporary Administrator something you taught me in the first place? You said you would actively help before, but you’re changing your words now.”

“Oh my, I originally intended to help. However… now that the hidden Red Administrator has revealed traces, I must prepare for all variables.”

“Is that so? But this vote… isn’t it by majority anyway?”

Seong Jihan looked to both sides.

“Even if you oppose, if the two Permanent Administrators agree, it’ll be over.”

“The two of them wouldn’t both agree…”

[I am in favor of selecting player Seong Jihan as a ‘temporary Administrator’.]

[I am in favor of selecting player Seong Jihan as a ‘temporary Administrator’.]

“…Oh my. This is unexpected.”

Yggdrasil frowned.

The selection of a temporary Administrator was done by majority vote.

Currently, there were a total of three Administrators in the BattleNet.

With two votes already cast, Seong Jihan’s selection as a temporary Administrator could no longer be stopped.

“Alright! I’ll vote in favor too.”

“Now of all times?”

“I have to go with the flow.”

Anyways, he was unbelievably shameless.

Yggdrasil, as if he had never frowned earlier, smiled brightly and persuaded Seong Jihan.

“Well, since it turned out this way… please choose your color wisely.”

“I’ll handle it myself, so don’t concern yourself.”

“You know I’m aware of Earth’s location, right?”

Tap.

As Yggdrasil snapped his fingers,

Screens popped up here and there.

“The main forces of the World Tree Alliance are ready to deploy. The moment you choose to be our enemy, humanity will be annihilated.”

“When you threaten me like that, it makes me want to choose to be your enemy.”

“I’m serious. If the Red Administrator rises above me as a Permanent, I won’t have any more chances.”

“Why, that guy could also pull you up to be a Permanent, you know.”

“Ha. As if he would.”

Yggdrasil, who snorted at Seong Jihan’s words,

Pointed to the screens and warned him once more.

“So I hope you make a wise choice. Otherwise, not only humanity but Earth itself may disappear.”

The Green Administrator was now threatening to destroy not only humanity but Earth itself.

The elven forces preparing to deploy in the dozens of screens that popped up,

Looked sufficient to bring about humanity’s downfall, if not planetary destruction.

However,

[Do not interfere, Yggdrasil.]

[Leave everything to his choice.]

As the Black and White Administrators each expressed their will,

Shwooo…

Half of the screens Yggdrasil brought up were engulfed in darkness,

And the other half were dyed in light.

“Uh…”

And as the light and darkness disappeared from the screens,

Yggdrasil’s main forces were completely annihilated.

– Wow, wiped out in one shot.

– As expected of the Permanent Administrators…

– Yggdrasil was acting too cocky;

– Even if she commands the World Tree Alliance, she’s no match for the true absolute beings.

– The elves’ power got suddenly cut down.

As the viewers from outer space admired the power shown by the Permanent Administrators,

“…I apologize. I will remain still.”

Yggdrasil lowered his head and kept his mouth shut.

‘This is like picking your nose without using your hands.’

The Black and White Administrators.

‘I’m not sure what they’re thinking, but they don’t seem to be so hostile to this side.’

While Seong Jihan was thinking that,

[Player Seong Jihan has been selected as a temporary Administrator.]

[Choose the color that symbolizes the Administrator.]

Flicker…

Three auras rose up in front of Seong Jihan’s eyes.

Red and blue.

And green.

* * *

– Oh… is it time to choose the color now?

– The colors that came out are exactly RGB lolll

– Seong Jihan became a new Administrator, but the only new color available is blue.

– I guess red is gone now, but why did green come out?

– Yeah, the Green Administrator is right in front of us

The three colors a temporary Administrator can choose.

As green was included in this list, the viewers expressed their bewilderment.

And Yggdrasil, who was in reflection mode, raised his head with an urgent look.

“What… what is this? Why is green here?”

“Beats me. Do I look like I know?”

Seong Jihan tilted his head.

He expected red and blue to come out, but why did green pop up.

‘Could it be because of Stat Eternity?’

That’s the only thing that comes to mind.

While Seong Jihan was puzzled about why this color appeared,

“C-Could it be… that my term has ended due to my earlier mistake?”

Yggdrasil alternately looked at the light and darkness, asking in a pitiful voice.

[Your term has not ended yet.]

[Even if he chooses green, you will not be replaced.]

However, the Black and White Administrators flatly denied that.

– Aw, that’s a shame lolol

– It would have been a big reversal if he chose green and gulped down the World Tree Alliance…

– If that happened, humanity could have ruled over the elves, hehe.

– What are you saying; why would humanity rule, it’s Seong Jihan who would rule.

As people expressed disappointment at the lost opportunity to dominate the World Tree Alliance,

“Not… replaced?”

Yggdrasil’s gloomy face was rapidly brightening.

“Then there can be… two Green Administrators?”

Beyond the relief of not losing her position,

Yggdrasil’s eyes shone as she discovered a new possibility.

“Seong Jihan, choose green!”

“…Why would I?”

“If, by chance, the two Green Administrators who became one… combine with each other, we may rise to become Permanent Administrators!”

Tak!

With that, Yggdrasil placed a hand on her chest.

“Allow me to formally introduce myself to you, my partner. I am Yggdrasil. The ruler of the World Tree Alliance, owner of 2,484 planets, and the third wealthiest ‘Green Administrator’ in the universe.”

“…We’re partners already?”

“Seong Jihan-nim. You just need to bring your body. I’ll prepare everything for our newlywed home!”

[PR/N: the avatar is a girl hmmm….]

– Turns out the wife is a universal chaebol?

– Hmm… it might not be so bad…

– What are you saying, she’s trying to devour her husband;

– Yeah, she said they need to combine to become Permanent Administrators, what else could that mean?

‘What else could it be? She’s saying she’ll devour me.’

Seong Jihan frowned as he looked at Yggdrasil, whose eyes were sparkling in front of him.

‘I’d rather the green light not come out at all.’

It needlessly drew the attention of a dangerous being.

“If you become my partner, I will turn your home planet Earth into the best paradise in the universe. And I will provide an opportunity for all humans to become elves!”

“Hey, be quiet. I’m going to choose, so shut up for a bit.”

“Ah, wait a moment. Give me some more time to appeal…!”

Ignoring Yggdrasil’s chatter, Seong Jihan looked at the three auras in front of him.

‘The most dangerous order here would be green, red, and then blue.’

Red and green.

Both were dangerous, but the current Green Administrator seemed more dangerous than red.

At least red had some wiggle room for resistance.

That side really seemed like it would come out saying let’s fuse the moment he chose green.

‘Let’s go with blue before she blabbers more.’

Seong Jihan decided to go with blue as he originally planned,

And reached out his hand towards the blue aura.

“Ah, not there, I’m telling you it’s the one next to it…!”

As Yggdrasil cried out with a desperate look,

[In the end, you try not to choose red…]

Flash!

The red eye on the back of Seong Jihan’s right hand glinted.

[I will guide you to the right path, Heart.]

As the Administrator revealed their presence, the Dragon Lord’s head that had disappeared,

And the eye of the Red Administrator also seemed to lose strength as it closed, but…

This was merely a predator hiding its claws.

At the decisive moment of choice, the Red Administrator tried to dominate Seong Jihan’s body to make him choose red.

Whoosh…!

As red moved inside and Seong Jihan’s body was set ablaze,

“Red Administrator… what are you doing to my husband right now?!”

Yggdrasil, with murderous intent in her eyes, exuded an intense energy.

[Husband? Don’t say such terrible things, you man-eating spider.]

“Devour? What do you mean devour? We’re going to combine!”

[That’s the same thing.]

As the two revealed intense hostility towards each other,

The energies of the two Administrators were about to clash in a dire moment.

The Black and White Administrators, as if this situation had nothing to do with them, just silently watched.

Whether red wins or green wins, it doesn’t seem to matter to them.

‘Then, I should choose blue.’

Shwooo…

A blue light flickered at Seong Jihan’s left foot.

[This is…]

For the first time, a perplexed voice flowed from the red eye.

Once it seriously started to move,

The blue energy instantly dispelled red’s domination.

“Both of you, get lost.”

Seong Jihan, who easily regained his body from the Red Administrator, grasped the blue aura.

Then,

[You have selected blue as your symbolic color.]

[You have become the temporary Administrator, the ‘Blue Administrator’.]

A message confirming the symbolic color popped up.
