Martial God Regressed to Level 2 - Chapter 17

< The God of War Returned to Level 2 Episode 17 >

Constellation.

They are the absolute ones who represent one star and reign as divine beings on Battle.net.

‘Not much was known about the constellation in my previous life.’

Although the constellation column was added to the status window of all players after the Battle.net tutorial period was over.

There were virtually no players sponsored by the Constellation.

Among players with at least Diamond League or higher, only those with outstanding abilities were selected for the Constellation.

‘The reason Earthlings were not sponsored was simple.’

The Space League, which started after the Battle.net tutorial ended in 2020.

The achievements of the people of Earth there were disastrous.

‘I thought I was a damn star after repeated demotions.’

And even if a Constellation sponsored it by chance, the quality wasn’t very good.

The penalties were as great as the abilities they gave, so many suffered great damage from the Constellations’ schemes.

Constellation support was a double-edged sword.

But Sung Ji-han was prepared to handle a double-edged sword.

The more the Constellation sponsored him, the better.

‘I’ve already thought of a seat in the constellation, but… … I’m sure they’ll sell things that increase constellation slots in the Achievement Shop.’

Considering the items in the Achievement Shop he had seen so far, the possibility was very high.

If so, the reward is the interest of the constellation ‘Shadow Queen’.

It was worth aiming for.

‘However, the conditions are difficult.’

The number of spectators at the Colosseum was a problem.

At least, the size of the Colosseum is so wide that most of them sit sparsely, so it won’t be confusing, but the number seemed to exceed 1,000.

Seong Ji-han recalled the elves sitting in the stands.

‘The white elves were waiting on the black elves.’

Superficially, the relationship was clear.

However, it bothered me that the name of the constellation was ‘Shadow Queen’.

Contrary to what it seems, there might be a queen hiding among the black elves.

‘To provoke the elf in the audience there.’

End of survival map.

A strong barrier surrounded the boundaries of the Coliseum arena.

With Bronze’s level of strength, it would be impossible to break through that barrier and provoke the elves in the audience.

Such restrictions also applied to Sung Ji-han, who had armed forces.

“hmm.”

Around the time Seong Ji-han, who had logged out and returned home, was deep in thought.

“uncle! Congratulations on setting a new record!”

My niece Yoon Se-ah came out of the room and congratulated Seong Ji-han.

“A new record?”

“Survival 10 kills! It was amazing!”

Yoon Se-ah was running around with excitement as if it were her own business.

“ah. that. You were watching.”

“of course! and. But there were a lot of people. Thinking there would be no viewers, I went in to become number one, but over 1,000 people were watching.”

“okay? I saw more than I thought.”

“uh. Later on, the number of people gradually increased and reached over 3,000!”

3000 people on the bronze broadcast.

Considering that the average number of viewers of a gold-class broadcast is about 2,000, it was a great figure to make Yoon Se-ah make a fuss, but Seong Ji-han’s reaction was calm.

Compared to the record of the previous life, this number was new blood.

“But people said they wanted to sponsor the GP. It was regrettable that my uncle completely cut off the sponsorship.”

“okay?”

Is it because I changed the broadcast settings according to my old habit?

It seems that the sponsorship was completely blocked.

In my last life, the GP was relaxed, so I turned it off because the support message that kept popping up during battle was annoying.

‘Things are different now.’

This is a time when a penny or two in GP matters.

Moreover, in the lower leagues, you won’t win a fight just because a message pops up.

“I need to change the settings again.”

“huh. Even so, it could get in the way of my uncle’s fight… … Sponsorships under 10,000 won’t be visible to players! Oh, is 10,000 too cheap? Ten million won in Hanwha is cheap, right? is not it. Is it expensive?”

Yoon Se-ah tilted her head and pondered over and over again.

As the daughter of the sword king, she lived in abundance without worrying about money, so she had less idea about money.

“10,000 GP… … okay. Bronze can’t help it.”

And Seong Ji-han had some concept of money.

Other common sense was at odds.

‘I can upload a support message on my channel with only 10,000 GP… … It’s too cheap even if it’s cheap.’

Although he knows in his head that he is now bronze.

In my heart, I still hadn’t completely abandoned the standard of being ranked 7th in the world.

“It gets in the way when there are too many messages.”

“I know… … Would 50,000 be good?”

“No, but it’s just the beginning. You have to be humble.”

Uncles and nephews worried for nothing.

Yoon Se-ah, who had been watching Seong Ji-han change the Battle.net channel settings, asked with an apologetic expression.

“But uncle. What were you thinking about? It was a worried face.”

“ah. that? Among the grandstand elves, there is a quest to find the Shadow Queen.”

“quest? Is there anything like that on Battle.net?”

“It came alive when I achieved 10 kills.”

Seong Ji-han answered his nephew’s question as naturally as flowing water.

There were many parts of the game called Battle.net that were not originally revealed, so Yoon Se-ah agreed, thinking that would be the case.

“Um~ Shadow Queen.”

“There must be a thousand elves alone in the stands, but I was thinking about how to find them.”

“uncle. Can I help you? I have nothing to do anyway.”

“What about school?”

“The homeroom teacher contacted me. You can take a week off from school because of this.”

The homeroom teacher seemed to be especially considerate, probably because the Japanese naturalization of the sword king Yoon Se-jin was an issue that shook the whole country.

“okay. If Sae-ah helps, then I’ll be fine.”

If you don’t have anything to do while you’re at home, you’ll only have bad thoughts.

It would be nice to have something to focus on.

Seong Ji-han accepted the nephew’s proposal without expecting much.

“good. uncle. I will definitely find the Shadow Queen. Please do me a favor later.”

“ask? tell me what it is now I will listen right away.”

“no way. If you listen right away, there is no sense of accomplishment. Listen when you find it!”

what kind of request are you asking?

Sung Ji-han was puzzled, but calmly nodded.

“okay. If you find the Shadow Queen, I’ll give you anything.”

“good. I have to find it right away!”

Then, it was Yoon Se-ah who ran back into her room.

‘It’s nice because it’s lively.’

Seong Ji-han smiled at the sight and went into his room.

Epic quests that are not easily solved are postponed until later.

There was work to be done before this.

‘Unique stat.’

The unique stat of Baron, who was ranked #1 in the world.

I had to get the ‘force’.

* * *

The next day.

[The divine power has been absorbed from an alien relic.]

[The divine power has increased to 10.]

[From now on, you can only absorb the divine power from a grade C or higher relic.]

Seong Ji-han stood up from the pile of relics.

From now on, a message popped up saying that you can only absorb divine power in C grade, but it didn’t matter.

It was finally 10 holy power in the true sense, excluding the title effect.

He went to the practice room outside the penthouse.

Perhaps because it was the place where Sword King Yoon Se-jin experimented with his swordsmanship, the entire training room was made of a special metal that absorbs shock.

“fire.”

A basic magic fire that was never used even after awakening as a mage class.

Seong Ji-han used it for the first time in real life, not in a game.

A small flame like a candle flame rises from the center of the palm.

The fire was in danger, as if it would be extinguished at any moment even by a child blowing on it.

‘As expected, wizards are not my aptitude.’

With 5 mana and the penalty of not being able to use half of his ability in real life, the output of basic magic was not as good as that of a lighter.

‘Add divine power here.’

Sung Ji-han recalled Barron’s words.

-When I was in bronze, I suddenly thought of this while beating a zombie. I wondered what it would be like to endow magic with divine power.

-It’s a master, so it’s possible.

Divine power is an ability that is given only when awakened as a supporter.

Magic can only be used by mages.

Anyone could come up with the idea of imparting divine power to magic, but only Baron with the gift of ‘My Status 2’ was the only one who could turn it into reality.

-okay. My Great Gift My two status windows brought this idea to life right away. I have been winning every time on the defense map. And the stats are equalized by 1 each for divine power and magical power… … .

Baron’s hazy eyes, which had been drunk, were as bright as this time.

-And the moment the divine power reached 10! Oh, my God! A unique stat came to me! okay… … I have Baron’s trademark ‘Force’!

force.

A new unique stat that appears when magic and divine power are combined.

It was an absolute force that ruled ‘space’.

Baron’s force was a tremendous force, even when Seong Ji-han thought of it now.

‘If Baron had good control, he would have looked like a real No. 1 player.’

However, it was just unfortunate for mankind that he was a balcon to the point of seriousness.

In addition, in an emergency, he was easily flustered and failed to control his power, causing damage to his allies.

‘Force… … I’ll get it and show it to you, Barron.’

A force that contains countless possibilities.

Seong Ji-han thought of getting this in his hand and using it as a double-headed carriage with military force.

‘… … It’s not going to be easy.’

However, the ‘force’ did not come easily to Seong Ji-han.

As Baron said, he raised his divine power to 10 and mixed it with magic.

‘First of all, it doesn’t mix well.’

It was because the use of holy power was quite free, but magic was clumsy.

It is common for fire to disappear while trying to put divine power.

Somehow, even if they succeeded, Seongjihan’s magic did not maintain its appearance, such as not lasting long and the lights going out.

“hmm. Should I raise my magic power?”

Magic stat 5.

It seemed that the magic was not being expressed properly because it was the lowest value for players.

I had to raise it in order to raise it by 2 levels due to the harvest in yesterday’s survival.

‘Let’s try to become the first.’

I don’t know if I put it directly into the Force, which will become a unique stat, but it was too wasteful to put this remaining point into magic.

‘I’m taking a break from playing games today.’

Seong Ji-han took heart and started practicing again.

* * *

“Whoa… … .”

from morning till night.

Seong Ji-han continued to attempt the fusion of divine power and magic, but there was no clear result.

‘Still, there were unexpected results.’

It was a time when the mana level in the heart was so low that it was impossible to practice because the mana in the heart was quickly depleted.

– Shall we use our inner strength?

Seong Ji-han, who was waiting for her magical power to recover, thought of drawing energy from Hadanjeon, the source of power.

It was not possible at the bronze level, but it was the result of operating the flag based on Seong Ji-han’s rich experience.

The work of drawing the energy of Hadanjeon and converting it from the heart into magic was showing some success.

‘The loss of energy is great, but… … .’

Because it’s important to use magic now anyway.

Sung Ji-han replenished his mana with Ki and used magic again mechanically.

“fire.”

And I just need to mix it with divine power so that it doesn’t scatter.

As the divine power entered, the candle flickered again, as if the magic power was insufficient.

‘Lastly, let’s infuse more energy.’

The inner potency is now almost exhausted.

Seong Ji-han decided to find another way if he failed this time, and raised the energy of the lower battle.

In this way, the inner energy of Hadanjeon, the magical energy of the heart, and the three kinds of divine power of the head exquisitely gathered in the fire.

It was then.

[Succeeded in temporarily merging the energies of Samdanden 三丹田.]

[Sacred power that stays in 上丹田. The magic that stays in the middle of the middle of the day. Although the powers staying in the lower halves are different in nature, they contain the possibility of merging into one.] A

completely unexpected system message, different from the force originally intended to obtain, came to my eyes.

[Would you like to try integrating Samdanjeon 三丹田?]

[Warning: This is a risky attempt because the player’s level is too low. Life may be jeopardized.]

There was never a warning message that life was in danger on Battle.net during the tutorial period.

Sung Ji-han saw it and smiled at the corner of his mouth.

If it’s a dangerous attempt to the extent that a warning message appears like this… … .

‘It means that the reward you get when you succeed is also great.’

he said in a confident voice.

“Integrate the triple battle.”
