The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2-Chapter 634:
Chapter 634:
"...So. This is the Ark you mentioned?"
Swish.
The finger-sized Dongbang Sak stroked his beard and looked upward.
"I didn't think summoning would actually be possible. Thank you."
"Well, I didn't intend it either. But, your body size... It seems to be adjusted to the Tower."
"It appears so. I tried to adjust my body size myself, but it didn't work. And."
Whoosh...!
Just as Dongbang Sak's form seemed to disappear, his body floated up above the Tower.
Then,
Swish...
Dongbang Sak's body gradually became more transparent compared to before.
He nodded as he looked at his fading body.
"It seems I can't stay outside the Tower's domain for long."
"Is that so?"
"But I can use some power... About 10% of my usual level, I'd say."
"That level might not be enough to seal the Infinite Sword completely."
Even if Dongbang Sak was the original owner of the Infinite Sword,
How could he handle it at that finger-sized scale with only 10% of his original power?
Seong Jihan thought this logically, but.
"Hmm... I can't be certain, but I might be able to stop the sword momentarily."
While prefacing that he couldn't be sure, Dongbang Sak said he could briefly halt the Infinite Sword.
"Momentarily... For how long?"
"About 5 minutes should be possible. It might be longer if the sword enters the Tower's domain."
5 minutes.
That much could be quite helpful, couldn't it?
"Can the manifested Tower be moved?"
Tap. Tap.
As Seong Jihan tapped the metallic tree Yggdrasil and asked,
[No related authority detected for the secondary authorized user.]
[Moving the manifested Tower is not possible.]
The answer came immediately.
'No related authority detected?'
No.
He thought it would be related to the useless authority 'Tower Manifestation'.
Was this authority useless here too?
Seong Jihan frowned, then,
'Ah. Right. I'm covering my left eye.'
He soon realized he was currently operating only one attribute to match Ark's standards.
He had sealed attributes like Tower content manifestation, thinking they were useless.
Wasn't he only using Device Proficiency?
'Hmm... I should switch the currently active attribute.'
Swish...
As blue energy seemed to dye Seong Jihan's right hand, the Blue cleared from his left eye as his hand was completely immersed in light.
Then when Seong Jihan asked again if the Tower could be moved,
[Related authority detected for the secondary authorized user...]
[Increasing manifestation level of game content 'Tower'.]
Swish...
The Tower, which had reached his knees, grew to waist height.
The finger-sized Dongbang Sak also grew about twice in size.
And,
[With the current authority, the Tower can only be moved within Yggdrasil's sector.]
The answer came that he could now change the Tower's placement.
"Hmm. I've recovered much more power than before. And it seems I can move freely within this space."
"Indeed, your body is no longer becoming transparent, Dongbang Sak."
Earlier, Dongbang Sak would become transparent just by leaving the Tower's domain.
Now he could move freely, limited to the Western Sector.
Seong Jihan saw this and tapped Yggdrasil with his finger again.
"But if my authority gets stronger here, can I manifest the Tower outside too?"
[Yes. If the manifestation level increases, you can manifest the Tower outside Yggdrasil's sector as well.]
"And can I make the Tower bigger here too?"
[That's correct.]
So, the 'Tower Manifestation' authority, which he thought useless until now, had become somewhat useful.
'I don't need to be too disappointed even if I fail to acquire Urd's authority, Time Reversal.'
Currently, the chance of obtaining the Time Reversal authority was 43%.
Until now, he thought failing would strengthen a useless attribute.
But now, even if he failed, the Tower would grow, so it didn't seem like a big loss.
Meanwhile,
"What... How was someone who's not an isolate summoned to Ark? And to move so freely at that..."
Id looked alternately at the Tower and Seong Jihan with confused eyes as he watched Dongbang Sak move.
"And you, did you... switch the light authority? That blue light, could you move it so easily...?"
"I'm restraining him too."
"No, what... What on earth did they create in this server? Like this, couldn't you operate in Ark even with dozens of authorities? Ha! This is..."
"What dozens? I need to end this first."
He could only get 3 attributes to begin with.
What more could he increase here?
As Seong Jihan was reacting to Id's fuss,
[Opposing the Infinite Sword...? Being from the server. I warn you once again. Don't act recklessly.]
The Divine Eye, bound by Seong Jihan's energy,
Looked back and forth between Seong Jihan and Dongbang Sak, then spoke sharply once more.
* * *
"Reckless, you say. You mean like this?"
Seong Jihan smirked and pressed [Revoke Lower Authorized User's Authority] with his finger.
Then,
[Do you want to revoke the authority of secondary authorized user 'Noah'?]
Once again, the option to revoke Noah's authority appeared on the screen.
Earlier, he didn't choose due to the threat of the Infinite Sword coming, but.
'Since Dongbang Sak said he could stop the Infinite Sword, I should definitely take away her authority now.'
No matter how he thought about it, compromising with Noah seemed to have more disadvantages than advantages.
Dealing with it decisively here would eliminate future troubles.
As Seong Jihan was about to revoke her authority first,
Flash. Flash...!
The Divine Eye began to emit light frantically.
[Stop! The Infinite Sword, created in the 2000-series servers, is the ultimate weapon that has never been replaced...!]
"So what?"
[It's not a weapon that can be stopped by some summon from that Tower you called! Since the Infinite Sword appeared, over 2,000 servers have come and gone... But the master of the Northern Sector has only been that sword. No matter how much new data accumulated in Yggdrasil, no weapon surpassing the Infinite Sword has appeared until now!]
If a weapon surpassing the Infinite Sword had appeared, the master of the Northern Sector would have been replaced from the sword to something else, was that it?
This person really came up with something ridiculous.
[So, don't rashly revoke my authority... Let's go back to square one and maintain a cooperative relationship. Don't you need my information too?]
"No."
Seong Jihan immediately rejected Noah's proposal to cooperate again, and,
Beep.
He pressed 'Yes' to revoke the authority.
"I can't leave future troubles for the sake of information."
[Secondary authorized user 'Noah's' authority is revoked.]
As that message appeared,
Crackle. Crackle...
The power of the Divine Eye, caught in Seong Jihan's domain, began to weaken rapidly.
[No... You fool...! This is the path to death for all...!]
Noah lamented in a voice noticeably weaker than before, but.
"We won't die that easily."
[Ha. Could it be... You're trusting Id? The Power of Protection is strong but not invincible. And that's not something to use now, but to save for the central area...]
"No. I trust the sword's owner."
[...? The sword's owner...?] freewebnoveℓ.com
"That elder is the owner of the Infinite Sword."
[What...]
Whoosh...!
Noah disappeared before finishing her response to those words.
Dongbang Sak slowly stroked his beard as he looked at the vanished Divine Eye.
"Heh heh. Unless it's Dongbang Sak from Server 2101... The current me can barely imitate the tip of the sword. I dare not call myself the owner of the Infinite Sword."
"Well, but you can still buy us time, can't you?"
"That's true. Thanks to your authority, I think I can hold out for about 10 minutes."
It was 5 minutes earlier, but it doubled due to the authority.
'10 minutes should be enough to reach the South.'
He memorized the path while following the Divine Eye earlier.
If they moved as fast as possible through this, they should be able to reach the Southern Sector again within 5 minutes.
"Dongbang Sak. Then, I have a request."
"A request? Wasn't I the one who made a request to you in the first place? I said I wanted to see the Infinite Sword with my own eyes. I'm grateful to you for providing such an opportunity."
As Dongbang Sak gestured for him to go quickly,
Seong Jihan looked towards Id.
"Id. Let's go to the South."
"Me, me too...?"
"Why not? Or do you want to stay here with Dongbang Sak and try to stop the Infinite Sword?"
Id quickly shook his head at Seong Jihan's question.
"Am I crazy to do that? Alright. I'll follow..."
"Good thinking. Then put up a shield when we leave. We can't break the golden clocks, remember?"
"It's not a shield, it's the Power of Protection."
"Same thing."
As Seong Jihan said this and approached the entrance door,
[Authority confirmed.]
Ziiing...
The green door opened by itself, revealing the golden clock in front of it.
The clock that could wake Urd if broken,
"I'll block it."
Whoosh...!
Id's protective barrier let Seong Jihan's group pass through without breaking the clock.
And as they were about to reach a fork in the road,
"Being from the server."
"What?"
"Noah... Is she really dead?"
Looking towards the other direction of the fork,
Where Noah had been sleeping, Id asked in a low voice.
"Hmm. I only revoked her authority. Her life or death is uncertain."
"Is that so? Then."
Swish.
Id, who had been looking towards Noah's room, turned to Seong Jihan with a coldly composed face.
"...Shouldn't we confirm the kill?"
"Confirm the kill, you say."
"Didn't she say earlier that she obtained authority through hidden methods as a former supervisor?"
"She did."
"Couldn't she do that again at any time?"
That certainly made sense.
"Right. We shouldn't leave future troubles."
"Then, let's quickly deal with it and go to the South."
This guy.
He was showing a completely different side from usual.
'Well, someone who's survived in Ark until now wouldn't be that naive.'
Seong Jihan followed Id's suggestion and entered Noah's room.
There,
Flash... Flash...
Noah's eyes, lying on the floor,
Were flickering with pure white light.
"As expected, she's not dead."
Step. Step.
Id moved forward ahead of Seong Jihan and,
Crunch!
Stomped on her eyes with his foot.
Then,
Flash! Flash!
Noah's entire body burst into light, even though only her eyes were stomped.
"..."
Id looked on with a chilling gaze, then,
Stomp! Stomp!
He stomped on Noah's eyes more violently, focusing on them.
Whoosh...
Noah's body was completely engulfed in light,
Then disappeared without a trace.
"Heh. Hehehe... She's dead... Good. She's dead!"
Id, who let out a roaring laugh seeing this,
Whip!
Turned his head towards Seong Jihan.
"Being from the server... I've contributed to this, right? I've definitely removed your future trouble!"
"...You seem to want something."
"Yes. I do. From now on, I'll help you..."
At Seong Jihan's question, Id dusted off his feet, then,
"Later, erase Noah's name from Yggdrasil's registry and put mine in."
He stated what he really wanted.
