Martial God Regressed to Level 2 - Chapter 314

< War God Returned to Level 2 Episode 314 >

[I can’t believe it… … !]

Swoop.

A strong shadow energy emanated from Sung Ji-han’s left arm.

Ariel seemed to be about to jump out of his arm at any moment.

‘Wait a minute.’

Sung Ji-han suppressed her for the time being and asked the Great Spirit.

“Is the Shadow Queen a subject of study by the Constellation Lab?”

[no. She is a sacrifice to carry out the void handling task.]

‘Void handling… … .’

Seong Ji-han frowned upon hearing the Great Spirit’s words.

Void treatment.

Hearing that word, the first thing he thought of was a high elf wearing a half mask.

-Thanks to the death of my senior, I took over this Void Treatment Plant.

-senior… … .

-He did that with his usual pride, and then burst into you on the planet colonization map. That hated senior.

He was the branch manager of the World Tree Elf’s loan window.

This is what I answered to Seong Ji-han, who asked about the mask, referring to the high elf who was destroyed like a thunder god as a senior.

-You call that mask a void disposal site? it’s broken

– This is a trash can. Just make another trash can and that’s it.

A high elf who called the void disposal site a trash can.

Then it was possible to predict that the void handling job wasn’t particularly good.

‘I’ll have to look at it first.’

Sung Ji-han looked at the Great Spirit and said.

“Let’s go to the place where the Shadow Queen is imprisoned.”

[Okay.]

Flash… … !

A great spirit disappeared, and a huge portal of light appeared instead.

Let Seong Ji-han step into it.

It was there that a place worthy of the name ‘Underground Zone’ was revealed.

‘It’s full of void energy.’

A large, dark cavity.

This place where only purple light shines faintly.

It was mushy, like a swamp, half melted from the bottom.

And the aura of emptiness emanating from it.

Let’s look around Sung Ji-han.

Soon, in the middle of the swamp of emptiness, he was able to find a being tied up with chains all over his body.

[Wo Queen… … !]

Constellation Shadow Queen.

She looked almost identical to Ariel, to the point that she looked like a twin.

The only thing that is fine is the face.

The body under the face is not normal.

The grayish body was burning in purple flames and then regenerating again and again.

When Ariel can’t stand it any longer and tries to get out of Seongjihan’s arms.

[The 172nd void process begins.]

An automatically translated language came from the ceiling.

OK.

wriggling wriggling

The chains that bound the Shadow Queen pulsated like blood vessels.

Void power was injected into her body.

OK.

sigh… … !

The purple flame, which seemed to have weakened a bit, gained strength again.

The Shadow Queen’s body was melting again.

‘I’m out of my mind.’

The Shadow Queen stared at the front with her mouth open and blank eyes.

Only his body flinched for a moment at the intense flame, but he showed no further reaction.

“Queen!”

Seeing that, Ariel eventually jumps out of Sung Ji-han’s arm.

Although she ran to save the queen.

phut!

“Kuh… … !”

As soon as she jumped in, a white protective shield formed in the air and bounced off her.

and.

Suuuuu… … .

The white protective film soon coalesced into one form.

‘That’s… … Is it a welcome mask?’

A white half-mask worn by high elves.

It blocked Seong Ji-han’s path in a translucent form.

wriggling

The corners of the mask’s mouth began to move.

[No customer. How did you get in here?]

“… … Are you the branch manager of the loan window?”

[Yes, I didn’t expect to see you in a place like this.]

The manager welcomed Seong Ji-han in a welcoming voice.

The huge mask’s eyes stared at Ariel for a moment before continuing.

[We are processing waste right now, so don’t go inside.]

“It’s waste… … Are you referring to the void?”

[you’re right. The senior who died to you neglected to separate collection. I’m doing some backlog. Collect the separate collection boxes and deal with the void.]

Wriggling. wriggling

As soon as the words of the mask were finished, the chain moved again.

Roaring!

The Shadow Queen’s body quickly burned with purple flames.

‘Shadow Queen… … I thought I was dead by a god. Did the last goelf die and history got twisted?’

The Dark Spirit Shingyeol who was in charge of one axis of the Hongen Sacred Art.

It was very similar to the power the Shadow Queen possessed.

Considering the wandering god of war’s ability to steal the opponent’s power.

It was possible to deduce that the Shadow Queen was killed by a god of war in her previous life.

But the last high elf exploded along with the Thunder God.

As the branch manager inherited that white mask, the ‘Void Treatment Plant’, history seemed to have changed.

Unlike the previous high elves, the branch manager handled the work diligently.

Meanwhile.

Roaring… … !

The Shadow Queen was now burning not only her body, but her face as well.

Seeing that, the mask’s mouth moved busily.

[Oh dear. Thanks to the customer, I was impatient and couldn’t control my strength. How did our collection box grow to this point?]

“The Shadow Queen… … Is it a collection box?”

[Yes, it’s a special item that went to the constellation in the subject of shadows. Although there was special support from us.]

“… … support?”

Ariel, who had been bogged down by the mask and couldn’t come to her senses for a moment, gnashed her teeth.

“What kind of support do you guys have! We Shadow Elves won freedom under the guidance of our queen… … !”

[It’s an insignificant shadow. That’s a freedom we granted, not what you won.]

“What… … .”

[Otherwise, how can I disobey the real thing with a failed ghost?]

Unlike when I was talking to Seong Ji-han.

The branch manager looked down at Ariel with an overbearing attitude.

[Remember when you rebelled. A coincidence of coincidences overlapped, and the work barely succeeded. It’s the same when you increase your power after that. How did the queen choose to attack only the planets with so many shadows and cruise without being hindered by the world tree elves in the Battle.net League? Was this process all luck?]

“… … Did you really mean all of this?”

[okay. The strengthening of the Shadow Elves was just one project carried out by the Constellation Lab. All to make the Shadow Elves a Constellation. And it was to find out the tolerance of the void.]

Ssik.

The half mask smiled.

[The results came out quite satisfactory. From now on, the Shadow Elves will win their freedom again and again and create a constellation. And when it grows to a certain extent, it will become a trash can like this.]

“… … It can’t be. can not believe it.”

[is it? I think the Shadow Queen was vaguely aware of this.]

Sueugh.

The mask became transparent and the restored Shadow Queen’s face was revealed again.

Looks exactly like Ariel.

[When the forces stabilized, you spread your ‘alter ego’ everywhere. So that you can switch at any time.]

“… … .”

[Have you already switched? You might be the main body of the queen. Seeing that it has quite strong power.]

“… … My strength is because the owner is strong. I am only the alter ego of the Queen.”

[okay? Then it’s perfect for a new garbage sorter. It’s an insignificant shadow. We’ll make it into a constellation, so come this way.]

“Ha… … Do you want me to face that kind of end like the queen?”

[Didn’t you enjoy the honor in the meantime? Only the end is miserable.]

Ariel, whose expression hardened, looked at Sung Ji-han.

“… … Let the master escape. It shouldn’t stay here any longer.”

“Leave the Queen like that?”

“The Queen… … It’s already over. We can’t die either.”

Ariel rushes in first and then runs away quickly, perhaps sensing something from the manager’s words.

one.

[Whooping customer. Why did I talk so long about the circumstances of the shadow

?

[I hurriedly investigated how you came here. It seems that the great spirits mistook it for the manager because it possesses the energy of the world tree.]

“But?”

[It’s nice to have the energy of the World Tree intact. I thought it might be like that someday, but I already have ‘eternity’… … You have acquired the qualifications to be the same people as us.]

“Because they are the same people… … Are you talking about high elves?”

[Goelpra… … It’s just a term outsiders call us. To be precise, it is the ‘family of Yggdrasil .

‘

The appearance of the mask gradually changed.

[Dear Yggdrasil. Show off your splendid appearance and welcome the new clan.]

Flash!

Brilliantly twinkling lights.

In the place where the mask was, it soon showed a shape.

‘… … Is it a rainbow-colored tree?’

A tree of light that emerged like a holographic image.

It was changing color to iridescent and showing a brilliant appearance.

“That… … Yggdrasil… … .”

Ariel, who tried to run away from Sung Ji-han, was stunned when she saw it.

I slumped in my seat.

“… … ah.”

Even in the mouth of the Shadow Queen, who was staring straight ahead with blank eyes.

A voice came out for the first time.

Although it is only a shape.

Yggdrasil, an iridescent tree that exudes the energy of life that cannot be measured with just its appearance.

‘Is that Yggdrasil, the pinnacle of the World Tree Alliance? It’s on a different level.’

When Seong Ji-han saw this and judged it calmly.

[Then, please help with the work from now on.]

Yggdrasil’s shape disappeared, and the manager’s mask reappeared.

therefore.

sigh… … .

A half mask that looked just like him was created out of thin air.

It started to fly toward Seong Ji-han’s face.

[If you wear a half mask, take care of the garbage first, junior.]

Tak.

Seong Ji-han tilted his head as he held the flying mask in his hand.

“Why am I your junior?”

* * *

[…] … .]

The mask that remained silent for a while at Seong Ji-han’s answer.

[you… … a moment ago. Didn’t you welcome Yggdrasil… … ?]

I asked him in a trembling voice.

“Ah, the tree shining in rainbow colors?”

[That’s right! Didn’t you think anything after seeing that?]

“Ah, I thought the shiny thing looked pretty. It is full of vitality.”

[pretty… … ?]

“Yes.”

[How dare you judge Yggdrasil like that… … .]

“Isn’t being pretty a compliment?”

Seong Ji-han sincerely touched the half-mask as if it were a strange thing while saying that.

Seeing this, the branch manager, who grasped the situation, was astonished.

[Nonsense! How can someone who has eternity… … Can we not worship Yggdrasil? Isn’t the world tree inside you!]

“If you have it, you’ll obey Yggdrasil, won’t you?”

[Of course!]

“You don’t feel that way at all?”

Sung Ji-han said so.

Took. Took.

He tapped the branch manager’s half-mask.

“But are you weak?”

[…] … Just loading Yggdrasil for a while was enough. I thought you would become a junior and help me with my work… … Something unexpected happened.]

“Hmm.”

Took. Took.

Seong Ji-han, hearing those words, knocked harder on the mask blocking his way.

Did it take a lot of energy to float the image of Yggdrasil just a moment ago?

Even with a simple tap, the half mask slowly began to crack.

Then the branch manager hurriedly opened his mouth.

[for a moment! Don’t be rash. If you destroy this, the void will flow back to the laboratory!]

“Really?”

[…] … Yes, you’re not thinking of breaking it, are you? I warn you. stop here that hand! Stop knocking!]

The half mask gets louder and louder.

in proportion to it.

“By the way, why would I want to do it if you guys don’t?”

Seong Ji-han’s hand tapping on it also became stronger.

bang!

Fully cracked half mask.

[This crazy… … !]

Along with the voice of the branch manager, who was astonished.

Wow!

The energy of the void that was contained within the crack began to spread in all directions.

It’s too much to absorb even if it’s a sacred place with a void.

‘I’ll have to try this right away.’

Seong Ji-han listened to the half mask given to him by the branch manager.
