The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Novel

Chapter 247

When Sung JiHan entered the match, everyone thought that Taiwan would win the second game.

However, the content of the game was shocking.

=Player Heo WooTak... He's flying in the sky!

=Uh, um, what is he doing over there?

Heo WooTak summoned a giant Taegeuk.

When it rotated in the correct direction, it absorbed the entire map itself.

=Even the train is flying... Is this even possible?

=Oh, the Taegeuk is rotating backwards!

=The screen... suddenly plunges into darkness.

When it rotated in reverse,

The white sword expelled darkness, completely engulfing the world.

No player could resist the darkness.

-What is that...

-Why can't I see the screen? Is there an error?

-I wish it was an error... Sung JiHan lost ㅠㅠ

-No, that grandpa didn't say that in the first place!

-If that's the case, isn't he the best player in the world?

-He said he didn't participate in the Space League or something ㅡㅡ

The viewers who expected it to be a one-sided game panicked when the game ended quickly due to the elderly player from Taiwan.

However,

=Uh. Uh...

=Th-The game result. Korea won?

The actual result of the game turned out to be the opposite of what was expected once again.

=What is this? How did this happen?

=Ah... The last survivor is Sung JiHan. It says Heo WooTak was defeated?

When the Taegeuk rotated in reverse and the world was plunged into darkness,

Of course, everyone thought the game was over.

But in the end, the game result was Korea's victory.

Ziiing.

"Wow, damn it..."

"What is that?"

"No. Why is that grandpa not using his power in the Space League and doing this here?"

The players all came out of the Battle.net connector with blank faces.

"Huh? We won? What, what happened earlier, uncle...?"

Yoon SaeA also came out of the connector with a similar expression and asked Sung JiHan in surprise.

But he...

"...Wait a moment."

"Oh, okay."

With a serious face, he replayed the situation from earlier.

'I've never had a difficult opponent until now...'

After obtaining the Unholy and the Void.

It was difficult to find an enemy that could threaten Sung JiHan even in space.

The most recent threat to him was Artmu's self-destruction.

Sung JiHan's power far surpassed the average level.

However.

'Taegeukma Sword... I was completely defeated.'

The white sword that came out of the Reverse Taegeuk.

The darkness it emitted was similar to the darkness that engulfed him in his previous life.

The control over the space of the Unholy and the power of the Void were unable to stop this darkness.

Sung JiHan naturally knew that he would also perish at that time.

But.

"...When my whole body was about to disappear. It was then, and only then, that I was able to find clues about the fifth extinction decision."

The fifth extinction decision, Cheonsugangsin.

I couldn't grasp the mechanism of this martial art of the Wood Element, no matter how much I trained.

My whole body was completely shattered by the Taegeuk Sword.

In the process of trying to seal it, the remaining life force in my body allowed me to find a clue about Cheonsugangsin.

"There is a connection between the power of life possessed by the elves and the abilities of Gilgamesh...."

Sung JiHan recalled the words of the High Elf.

The one who was rampaging, claiming to invade Earth.

"Huh, this planet... It was already a world where experiments had been conducted.... But the races are too inadequate for that...."

Because Earth was already a "world where experiments had been conducted," he couldn't enter the portal.

Could there be a connection between Gilgamesh's abilities and this?

"I've only found a small clue for now...."

Even with just a small clue about Cheonsugangsin.

My whole body, which had disappeared due to the Taegeuk Sword, was able to regenerate through the life force.

Although the mechanism itself was similar to when it regenerated during Artmu's self-destruction.

This time, it was a higher level as it regenerated a new body from a state where the whole body had completely disappeared.

Of course, this regeneration was still incomplete.

If the darkness of the Taegeuk Sword had continued, the resurrected body would have quickly perished.

"Huutaek's body couldn't withstand the Taegeuk Sword."

No matter how much Dongbangsak possessed it.

For an ordinary player, the Taegeuk Sword was too powerful of a martial art.

When the Taegeuk unleashed darkness.

Huutaek's physical body, of course, couldn't withstand it.

If Sung JiHan hadn't regenerated, he would have perished later than that.

Thanks to his resurrection, the victory of the game had returned to Korea.

Is that why?

A system message sent from Pithia popped up.

"Dongbangsak 'withstood the Taegeuk Sword and resurrected. Successor. I lost this bet.' Unfortunately, I'll give you a free prophecy."

Dongbangsak admitting cleanly that he lost the bet.

But Sung JiHan had no intention of accepting it.

"You lost, huh? It's just that Huutaek's body couldn't withstand it. I can't accept the victory, so let's fight properly with a different body."

"No. What are you talking about? Dongbangsak admitted defeat, and he said he would give me a free prophecy!"

"Oh. Enough with the prophecy. Let's fight again."

"No... Damn it. How valuable do you think my prophecy is?"

"Forget it. It's not necessary."

Sung JiHan wanted to fight again more than winning the bet.

In addition to finding clues about the extinction decision Cheonsugangsin when his whole body was shattered.

"Dongbangsak's Taegeuk and Reverse Taegeuk. Just by watching them, I can learn a lot."

After gaining the soul, Sung JiHan became the most powerful player in humanity in less than a year.

He had never had a player worth watching and learning from until now.

The realm of martial arts was so unique to him that he couldn't learn it anywhere else.

He had to continue exploring and developing it himself.

"But his Taegeuk was different."

The Taegeuk Sword that Dongbangsak, a nameless warrior, showed gave a strong impression to Sung JiHan.

Even with the soul, it was a realm that he couldn't understand at all.

But the Taegeuk stimulated the unconscious mind, providing an opportunity to think more deeply about the martial arts he had trained so far.

"But I can't miss the opportunity to learn because of some petty prophecy."

Even if he lost dozens or hundreds of times.

In order to elevate the realm of martial arts, Sung JiHan was willing to gladly accept death.

"Let's fight again. Ask quickly."

"...Are you serious about this? Really? Aren't you curious about the future?"

"I'd rather see Taegeuk than the future."

"Ha. My prophecy is treated like this... Fine. Wait a moment."

Sung JiHan firmly expressed her decision, and shortly after, Pitiya sent a message.

[You can participate in the next game. What do you think? Will you do it?]

"Okay."

[Then please don't get banned. If you get banned in three games, you won't be able to participate in any games after that.]

Sung JiHan nodded at her words and immediately went to Coach No Youngjun.

"Ha. So Hoo Taek was this powerful? Why did he hide his strength until now?"

"From now on, can't we just ban him?"

"There's no other outstanding key player in Taiwan besides Hoo Taek."

Although they won two games.

The coaching staff suggested banning Hoo Taek safely because of his overwhelming power.

Coach No Youngjun also nodded, considering accepting this opinion.

"Hoo Taek, please don't get banned."

"Ji, JiHan."

"Just release him for three games. It's okay if you do it after that."

Upon hearing Sung JiHan's words, Coach No Youngjun pondered deeply.

From the coach's perspective, banning Hoo Taek now is the right thing to do.

'It seems like JiHan wants to face him again....'

The problem was that the player making this request was Sung JiHan.

She single-handedly led the Korean national team until now, turning the country from the bottom of the regional league into a contender for the Champions League title.

If there is a player greater than the team, he is undoubtedly at the top of the list.

No matter how great the coach is, it was difficult for him to refuse.

"After three games... Is it really okay?"

"Yes, it is."

"I see. Then Hoo Taek, don't hold back in this game."

The coaching staff looked at each other, wondering if this decision was right.

But they couldn't voice any objections.

They also knew well the position Sung JiHan held in the Korean national team.

They couldn't say, "Why don't you ban him even if you lose to Hoo Taek?"

And also.

'We won two games....'

'You never know, right?'

Anyway, since Korea won the second game as well.

They could let go of one game, and ban Hoo Taek for the next 4 or 5 games.

With the agreement of the coaching staff, Coach No Youngjun began the ban and select for the three games.

=Uh... Hoo Taek is unbanned!

=Even after watching two games, they unbanned Hoo Taek....

=What are you thinking, Coach No Youngjun!

=Even the Taiwanese coach didn't ban Sung JiHan!

=Instead, Yoon Sejin will be banned!

=The map is like a bridge....

=Ah. This way... the result won't be the same as the second game, right?

Only the map has changed.

With the same lineup as the second game, Korea and Taiwan clashed again.

* * *

A bridge.

In regular Battle.net games, it was a defense map where the Undead Legion was blocked.

But in national team matches, it was an invade map where both sides faced each other on a bridge.

Originally, on a large bridge, warriors would form a formation and advance.

Archers and wizards would provide firepower from behind.

But the three games against Taiwan were completely different.

"To give up on the prophecy and want to fight me again. You've made a big decision."

Thump. Thump.

Hoo Taek walked leisurely alone from the Taiwanese camp.

Every time he walked, his appearance changed little by little.

His beard grew longer, and his hair turned whiter.

If he originally looked middle-aged, now he was a completely white-haired old man.

"That's right."

And among the players walking from the Korean camp, there was only one Sung JiHan.

He was fully prepared, with two weapons in hand.

"Unfortunately, this time I won't be able to bring out the Taegeuk."

"Why not?"

"This player can't handle it anymore. If I do, he might die."

"That's a shame."

The power of the Taegeuk, which erased the map.

He wanted to experience it again, but his incarnated body was too weak to use it again.

When Sung JiHan expressed his regret, Dong Bangsak stroked his beard.

"But don't worry. The original bet was less than a minute."

Thud.

He pulled out his beard.

Sssss...

Behind him, a powerful aura emerged.

"With the power of the Heavenly Horse, I can still bring it to an end."

Swish!

He pointed his finger once.

The atmosphere trembled, and Sung JiHan's left arm disappeared in an instant.

The formless palm of the Heavenly Horse.

The technique that transcended form, erased not only the arm but also the Shadow Sword.

"Hmm..."

Once Dong Bangsak removed his left arm, he let out a dissatisfied sigh.

"With only the power of the Heavenly Horse, it seems insufficient."

He had a point.

Sssss...

Sung JiHan's left arm, which had disappeared, reappeared.

"It's just the beginning."

"Well then, show me properly. It won't take a minute."

Thud!

Before Sung JiHan finished speaking.

As his legs collapsed, Dong Bangsak's body approached Sung JiHan in an instant.

"Yes. I'll finish it quickly."

Magical power surged in an instant.

Feeling the pain of his body being torn apart, Sung JiHan smiled.

The Taegeukma Sword was an unsolvable realm.

But the martial arts of the Heavenly Horse, he naturally understood how to use it.

"The formless palm. Like this, right?"

Shoooo!

Sung JiHan, who had recovered his body, swung his hand following the formless palm from earlier.

A strand of Dong Bangsak's clothes tore.

And.

Swish.

Dong Bangsak looked at the disappeared piece of clothing with a stern expression.

The formless palm that Sung JiHan imitated.

For something he used only once, it was surprisingly similar.

"...Did you understand it as a formless technique?"

"Yes."

"If you become my successor, I won't let you imitate it again."

Seeing this, Dong Bangsak's magical power rose even more ominously.
