The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 - Chapter 636
## Translation of Text:
At the top floor of the ‘Tower’.
The place where Dong Bangsak resided was completely dominated by the void emitted by Uld.
The purple haze was so thick that it seemed suffocating just to look at it.
Even for Dong Bangsak, it seemed like he wouldn’t be able to hold out for long…
‘He hasn’t even used the Muguk Sword… and he’s still holding on?’
Uld in her void state.
She wasn’t someone who could be defeated by ordinary means.
It was no different from an invincible state where attacks didn’t work and defense was difficult.
Even Dong Bangsak himself said he wouldn’t last long without taking out the Muguk Sword.
Didn’t he clearly say it himself?
However.
[That vast void is a waste. Your use of power is pathetic.]
Even in his battered state, Dong Bangsak looked at Uld with calm eyes.
Although the void had taken over the entire top floor.
Doooong…….
As the Taegeuk Magic Sword floated in front of Dong Bangsak.
The void couldn’t easily cross the boundary of the sword.
Of course, the Taegeuk Magic Sword’s level wasn’t enough to completely block the void, so there were large and small wounds accumulating…
[Pathetic… you dare say that in your state?]
[You mean my body’s condition? This?]
As Dong Bangsak stroked his beard.
Sss…….
His wounds began to heal quickly.
[It’s not a big deal.]
[……No. How can you so easily regenerate the wounds of the void?]
[Because it’s nothing special.]
Dong Bangsak answered as if it were easy.
But Sung Jihan, who had seen how strong Uld’s void was, knew that regenerating those wounds wasn’t as simple as he made it sound.
The void she emitted was on a different level than the power used by other void beings.
It could only be said to be similar to the Black Administrator.
‘Did seeing the realm of Muguk in the Ark help?’
Even without taking out the Muguk Sword.
The enlightenment remained.
It seemed like he had applied it to his body to regenerate.
Certainly, when it comes to martial arts, he’s on a different level.
While Sung Jihan was admiring him, fully recovered.
[Is that the extent of your skills?]
Swoosh.
Dong Bangsak smiled as he looked at Uld.
[Then, even if I can’t kill you… I can keep stalling for time.]
He couldn’t wield the Muguk Sword, so he couldn’t kill Uld in her void state.
But if he held on like this, he could buy time.
And he had already bought a day’s worth of time.
Uld’s expression hardened at Dong Bangsak’s words.
[Ha… A mere NPC bound to a game map. You’re quite a nuisance.]
Sss…….
The void-stained upper body of Uld was replaced by her original body.
Flash!
Behind her head, a clock of light appeared.
[Originally, I didn’t intend to use this power on a mere illusion… but it seems I have no choice.]
Tick. Tock.
The hands of the clock of light turned backwards.
Clack.
The screen stopped.
Like pressing the pause button while playing a video.
Uld and Dong Bangsak, who were facing each other, remained in that state.
They didn’t move an inch on the screen.
“…What is this?”
[That’s actually what the top floor of the Tower looks like. We can observe it, but it’s frozen like that. It seems to be related to the time reversal Uld used…]
Around the time the Red Administrator analyzed it like that.
Clack.
The stopped screen started moving again.
Paaaat…….
Dong Bangsak’s figure completely disappeared.
[Hmph. How anticlimactic… He killed himself just as I was about to trap him in the prison of time.]
Only Uld, who had summoned the clock of light.
She was grumbling in dissatisfaction as she withdrew her power.
‘Suicide?’
Did Dong Bangsak choose to commit suicide when Uld used her power?
Why did he make that choice?
While Sung Jihan was wondering.
Swoosh.
Uld looked up at the empty space and smiled brightly.
[Blue Administrator. It took a little longer than expected… but I’ll be there soon~]
As if she sensed the direction the Red Administrator was observing
She waved her hand, looking directly at him.
And at the same time.
[Player ‘Uld’ has cleared the Tower.]
[Player ‘Uld’ has acquired the God of War Tower Challenge Ticket.]
[Player ‘Uld’ is challenging the God of War Tower.]
Uld, who had subdued Dong Bangsak and cleared the Tower.
Was immediately challenging the God of War Tower.
* * *
‘Dong Bangsak bought us a lot of time, but she’ll probably clear the God of War Tower at lightning speed.’
I need to finish preparing to face her.
As Sung Jihan ignited his Blue energy and checked his condition one last time.
[The resurrected Dong Bangsak wants to contact you urgently. He says he has something to tell you before Uld reaches the top floor.]
The Red Administrator, who was managing the Tower’s miscellaneous tasks in place of Sung Jihan.
Informed him of this.
“Connect me right away.”
Ziiiing…….
At his words, the screen reappeared.
There, Dong Bangsak opened his mouth with a calm face.
[Has Uld entered the God of War Tower?]
“Yes. It seems she will arrive here soon.”
[Hmm… How did it look from the outside earlier?]
“Earlier, both of you were stopped.”
[I see. So when Uld uses her power, she’s also stuck here.]
Sung Jihan nodded at his words.
Until Uld lamented that Dong Bangsak had committed suicide.
Both of them hadn’t moved, like a paused screen.
The main body of the Ark had scattered clocks of light everywhere.
But it seemed like the server’s avatar couldn’t use that level of power.
“What happened when time stopped?”
[The clock of light expanded greatly, and she controlled time within it. She tried to move her own time and stop mine. I could resist with the application of Muguk, but I couldn’t kill her, so I just watched what she was doing.]
“I see.”
[But she must have realized that I wasn’t completely under her control. She tried to check my memories to see if I was really an NPC. It seems like such applications are possible when trapped in the prison of time.]
So, the prison of time allows one to look into the target’s memories.
Well.
Id certainly said that being trapped in the prison of time meant reliving your most painful past memories infinitely.
In that case, it would make sense that it allows access to memories.
[So, originally, I intended to be trapped in the prison of time and learn more about this to tell you… but I was worried that my memories would be read and your entry into the Ark would be exposed, so I committed suicide. I apologize for not being able to gather more information.]
“No. This alone has been a great help.”
I just asked Dong Bangsak to buy some time.
Not only did he buy a day, but he also extracted information about Uld’s power.
This was no different from Dong Bangsak exceeding expectations.
At that moment.
[Player ‘Uld’ is challenging the top floor of the God of War Tower.]
After Uld had cleared all the lower floors.
She was already challenging the top floor.
“She’s here. I should go face her.”
[She’s already here? I wish you luck. Ah. And, you’ll probably see many openings in her, but don’t attack them too much.]
“You’re telling me to leave her openings alone?”
[Yes. Her level of martial arts is significantly lower compared to her power, so you might accidentally kill her.]
He was telling me not to exploit her weaknesses because he was worried I might kill her.
Sung Jihan chuckled and nodded.
“Yes. I’ll do that.”
And as he turned off the screen.
Sss…….
Uld appeared on the top floor of the God of War Tower.
“Long time no see, Blue Administrator.”
She looked at Sung Jihan with a relaxed smile.
Then, her eyes widened.
“Oh my. To raise your power so much… you finished preparing before I even arrived?”
The reason Sung Jihan was raising his Blue power.
Was simply to cover his shining body.
But Uld mistook it as him preparing to face her.
“Did the sight earlier make you wary?”
“……”
“But really. That old
man. He was annoying. He bothered me before, and even as an NPC, he could use his power like that…”
“……Before? You’ve seen him before?”
“Ah. Oops. I misspoke.”
Uld brought her finger to her lips.
And smiled brightly.
“It’s not normal for me to have seen him here. Right?”
“Here…? What do you mean?”
“Huhu… There’s something like that.”
“……I don’t understand what you’re saying.”
Sung Jihan frowned at her words and managed his expression with a serious look.
This is tough.
It’s not easy pretending not to know when I already know everything.
“Anyway… Let’s see how much our Blue Administrator has grown, shall we?”
Flash……!
As soon as Uld finished speaking, a clock of light appeared behind her.
Compared to when she fought Sung Jihan in the God of War Tower before.
The clock was created so easily that she blinked.
“Oh my? It’s different from last time. The clock was created so easily. And the power I can use… it’s increased tremendously?”
“……”
“Did the standards of the God of War Tower change? Does it adjust stats based on the strong, like in the Tower, instead of the weak?”
“Do you think I’ll answer that?”
Uld smiled deeply at Sung Jihan’s words.
“Indeed. You wouldn’t answer so easily.”
Then, as she reached out to the clock of light.
Tick. Tock…….
The clock hands started to turn back.
“I’ll have to dig into your memories myself to find out.”
Paaaat……!
A pure white light erupted from the clock.
It completely engulfed the top floor of the God of War Tower.
But it didn’t reach Sung Jihan, who had raised his Blue energy.
“……? What? This is being blocked?”
“Huh? Did you do something?”
“Hmph…….”
At Sung Jihan’
s words, Uld twitched her eyebrows.
She touched the clock of light and turned the hands back several times.
Shuuuuuu…….
The light emanating from the clock couldn’t penetrate Sung Jihan’s Blue at all.
“……Blue Administrator. I did encourage you to grow.”
Then, the relaxed expression on Uld’s face began to fade.
“But didn’t you grow too fast?”
“And what about when you were nagging me to get stronger?”
“It’s strange… You definitely weren’t this strong last time.”
How did he grow so much in such a short time?
She had thought she could easily control Sung Jihan just by summoning the clock of light.
Faced with this unexpected situation, she wore a troubled expression.
