Chapter 415
Chapter 415
A little while ago, after absorbing the power of the Taeguk's Lost Soul.
"Before going home, I should check myself first."
Sung JiHan, who had gained immense power this time, decided to check his condition before going home.
Not only had he transferred the Administrator's hand, but he had also completely embedded the Void Processing Facility into his face.
His current state was no different from a walking time bomb.
"Since the Void Training Ground has been upgraded to over level 500, it should be fine to test my power."
As he entered the Void Training Ground.
"You did something good."
The owner of the Arena was already waiting there.
"You're here again? Aren't you busy?"
"I am, but this task is my top priority."
In response to Sung JiHan's calm words, he looked at his hand.
"Judging by the fact that you came to the training ground, it seems that you haven't been defeated yet."
"Why do you think that?"
"If the Administrator's hand had control over you, he wouldn't come here."
"I see."
If the Administrator's hand controlled Sung JiHan, there would be no reason for him to come to the Void Training Ground.
Sung JiHan nodded and looked at his hand.
The back of his right hand, with its flashing red eyes.
[I was in the middle of gathering information, but it got cut off when I came here... But I still found out some amazing results. As expected, the original is the original.]
Without displaying words on the surface like before, Sung JiHan sent his thoughts to him.
"Why am I the original?"
[I'll let you know if you wear the mask.]
No matter how the Administrator's hand settled on his right arm, he still seemed to be aware of the owner of the Arena.
"Understood."
Sung JiHan replied like that and looked at the owner of the Arena.
A face in the shape of the universe, wearing a hood.
He looked at Sung JiHan and blinked.
"The reason I came here is because of the Void Processing Facility."
"Why, to tear off your face?"
"I would like to, but the higher-ups didn't allow it."
Sung JiHan furrowed his brow.
If it wasn't the Administrator, his real face might have been torn off.
"So, here's the thing. Do you have any thoughts about donating your face? The higher-ups won't stop you if you offer it yourself."
"If you clean up the Void neatly, you might be able to donate."
"Unfortunately, that kind of intervention is impossible for him."
"Why can't it be done?"
"Although it's complicated to explain... Just think that there are limitations for the Void to act directly."
"Hmm. So, it's difficult to take off my face."
Sung JiHan touched his chin, which had been worn out.
The Void Processing Facility, which had increased the Void by 300 and changed the limit to 999.
The crack that started from one end of his face could grow at any time.
"He's carrying two bombs."
And they're on his arm and face.
But if they're going to explode, might as well do it in front of the gods.
While Sung JiHan was thinking about the things that had fused into his body.
"Donating is indeed difficult. Well then, let's get to the point."
"The point?"
"Yes."
Sung JiHan frowned...
In the depths of space, light emanated from two sparkling stars.
The owner of the Arena displayed a large screen.
"This time in the Arena, we will hold an event called 'Beginner's Arena'."
"Beginner's Arena?"
"Gathering species that have not reached intermediate level and giving them evolution bonuses."
"...Below intermediate level?"
"Yes. We will also provide full participation opportunities for players in the Diamond League."
Sung JiHan blinked as he listened to these words.
The conditions that the owner of the Arena listed, somehow...
"...It seems to fit perfectly with the situation of humanity. Is it because of my mood?"
"No. This Beginner's Arena is an event tailored to humanity. The participation conditions and rewards are set up so that humanity can receive evolution bonuses."
The owner of the Arena positively responded to Sung JiHan's question.
"Why is that?"
"Humanity needs to become an intermediate species as soon as possible. From above, they want to give them that opportunity."
"The Administrator..."
"Yes. However, since the management team cannot directly give evolution bonuses to a specific species, they have prepared this game."
As humanity evolves from the lowest to the lower level.
The black and white Administrator, who began to recognize this species and monitor the gods associated with them.
If they become intermediate level, they will be able to examine humanity more closely.
"...And if what Yggdrasil said is true, it will be possible to confirm whether humanity itself is a red Administrator through the evolution of the species."
Superficially, it is a very good proposal for humanity.
But within it, there are various intentions in the "Beginner's Arena."
However, Sung JiHan couldn't refuse it either.
"Ah, and Sung JiHan will be excluded from this event."
"I can't participate?"
"Only players in the Diamond League and Master League can participate."
"If you were going to exclude me, why didn't you just let me go?"
"You are currently gaining a lot of attention on BattleTube. But if the Beginner's Arena, an unfair event, is organized, there will be strong objections."
"I thought the Administrator wouldn't care about player objections."
"Because unnecessary noise is annoying."
So, Sung JiHan, who has a high level of attention, was set conditions to prevent his participation.
Only human players will be allowed to participate in the Beginner's Arena?
"It doesn't seem like the only reason... He probably won't teach me."
The owner of the Arena gave the ridiculous excuse that he excluded him because objections were annoying.
There won't be a real reason even if I ask him.
"So please encourage humanity to participate in this event. So that they can get a lot of evolution bonuses."
"You really want to make humanity intermediate, no matter what."
"Yes, that is the intention of the higher-ups."
Sung JiHan sighed.
The owner of the Arena glanced at Sung JiHan's arm for a moment.
"Well, I'll take my leave now."
"Is that it? If you were going to tell me about the Beginner's Arena, you didn't have to come in person."
"Among my concerns, there was also checking on Sung JiHan's condition. Since you seem fine, I'll be going now."
"Alright. Goodbye."
As Sung JiHan waved his hand.
Sss...
The owner of the Arena disappeared into the darkness.
As soon as he left.
"I wonder if someone is trying to rank fourth, it's quite annoying."
"Rank 4?"
[Back in my day, he was ranked 4th in the Void.]
I heard a story before that he was ranked within the top 20 in the Void by the Shadow Queen.
I didn't know he was such a high-ranking being.
"Seeing him come this far, I guess you were concerned after all."
[Seems like it. I don't have any intention of devouring his main body, but maybe it's a misunderstanding.]
"So, what amazing result did you find earlier?"
[Oh, that. Sir. This is something that can't help but be surprising. Your race...!!]
As Sung JiHan hesitated while mentioning the race, he replied with a sullen expression.
* * *
"Could it be that he was the Red Administrator when humanity found out? Is that what you're trying to say?"
[?? How did you know?]
"Eyegdrasil told me."
[The Green one found out? Oh no, this is bad...]
In response to Sung JiHan's answer, the Administrator looked bewildered.
But he didn't feel completely relieved either.
"Eyegdrasil didn't lie, did it?"
Seeing Eyegdrasil and now the Red Administrator acting like this.
Is it certain that the real Red Administrator has infiltrated the human race itself?
"It won't work. We need to quickly evolve humanity and go through the fusion process before the Green one can restrain us."
"Fusion?"
[By igniting this planet with the Sacred Flame, all of humanity will return to the main body. Then the main body will regain its former power. No, if humanity becomes intermediate, it might become even stronger.]
"Then I will disappear and only the Red Administrator will remain."
[No, that's not true. The main body possesses the most outstanding qualities of an enemy among humanity. The new Red Administrator will become the main body. It's the process of evolving from human to Administrator!]
To burn all of humanity with the Sacred Flame and become the new Red Administrator.
Sung JiHan listened silently and then asked.
"Why me? After the evolution, I will diligently transcribe and spread the Sacred Flame throughout this planet."
"Right. It would be better after the evolution. That way, the absorption of the Administrator's flames will be even stronger."
[That's correct. Just be patient.]
I haven't completely mastered this arm yet, so there's no need to say that I won't do it for no reason.
Sung JiHan played along with the Administrator's hand for now.
'That's the deadline for mastering this arm.'
He glanced at his right arm silently.
Even after the race evolves, if I don't ignite the Sacred Flame, this guy will try to rebel.
'If I don't obtain the evolution bonus in the Beginner's Arena. Although the deadline will be extended.'
It's not something I can tell people not to receive the evolution bonus.
If I act like that, this arm might cause a commotion and ask why it's acting like that.
For now, I'll proceed with the work.
I have to seize control of the arm before humanity evolves to intermediate.
While Sung JiHan was thinking about matching the arm's strengths and weaknesses until then.
[I'm glad you knew the main body would wait. The previous main body was too hasty and made mistakes.]
"What did the previous Red do?"
[Achieving achievements, I became a manager too early. I should have followed the proper process...]
The manager unexpectedly spoke.
"Achievements?"
[Before becoming a High Seat, I made the Grand High Seat submit.]
Sung JiHan's eyes flickered at those words.
The 'amazing achievement' that Yggdrasil mentioned.
Does it have something to do with this?
"The achievements needed to become a manager... was it to defeat the Grand High Seat before becoming a High Seat?"
[Originally, after becoming a Grand High Seat, the proper route was to gather strength and wait. But if you achieve an achievement that shakes the entire universe, like defeating the Grand High Seat as before... a new path to becoming a manager will be created.]
"How did you defeat the Grand High Seat? The difference in power must have been immense."
[Simple. I was stronger than the Grand High Seat.]
"Ah, I see..."
The answer was simple.
Sung JiHan replied like that and thought about the amazing achievement.
"Yggdrasil said that if I achieve the amazing achievement, he will recommend me as a temporary manager."
Achieving the amazing achievement.
Becoming a temporary manager and editing humanity, as Yggdrasil said.
He had no intention of following those words completely, but he still wanted to know the method itself.
Unexpectedly, he was able to find a hint about the amazing achievement from Red's hand.
However.
"Can I defeat the Grand High Seat...?"
Sung JiHan examined his own condition.
At this level, he could handle opponents at the High Seat level, but the Grand High Seat was a different level.
And.
"Where can I meet those guys?"
The Grand High Seats that Sung JiHan was aware of were two.
The Dragon Lord and the Sun King.
One of them, the Sun King, was in an unknown location.
The Dragon Lord was a supporting High Seat who supported him, but...
"I couldn't be summoned as his rare because I'm not a High Seat."
[The Grand High Seat 'Dragon Lord' is trying to summon the player as his rare for full support.]
[Player Sung JiHan does not have the qualification to respond to the summon of the 'Grand High Seat' as he did not obtain the 'High Seat' qualification.]
Sung JiHan recalled the system message he had seen before.
In the end, whether it's the Dragon Lord or the Sun King...
It's a difficult situation to meet and challenge them.
"...For now, I should be satisfied with finding the clue to that achievement."
Sung JiHan organized his thoughts like that.
The Void Processing Chamber absorbed into his face was still in a very stable state.
"But for now, neither of them will explode immediately."
After completing the check once like that.
Sung JiHan stepped out of the training ground again.
And what he saw when he returned home was...
"...Alright. You. I know it's because of Seo Ah. I don't care where you live. Just don't appear in front of me."
It was a divorce commotion unfolding at home.
"Then, let's proceed with the divorce process like that."
"T-That, is it... over?"
Sung JiHan turned away from Yoon Se-ah, who hoped he would intervene in this situation, and...
"The owner of the arena has made me an offer."
He brought up the topic of the 'Beginner's Arena'.
