The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Novel

Chapter 245

"Mom, there's no secret about my birth."

Not long after.

Yoon Sae-ah smiled brightly and relayed Sung JiHan's words.

"There isn't?"

"Yeah. When Uncle was born, Mom went to the obstetrics and gynecology department with him, and there was even a time when Mom changed Uncle's diapers and got peed on."

"You remember even those old days so well."

"I think I would remember even if I were like you."

"Anyway, it seems like it wasn't something picked up from somewhere."

Sung JiHan nodded.

"But why suddenly the secret of my birth?"

"Because I'm so overwhelmingly strong. I wondered if I was even human."

Sung JiHan didn't want to say that the unknown message was deciphered to Yoon Sae-ah, so he answered like that.

"...Uncle, Mom says not to act so cocky. She says you might get a big nose."

"Tell her I understand."

"But you don't have that kind of face at all..."

As Yoon Sae-ah shook her head excitedly and left the room, Sung JiHan thought to himself.

"If there's no secret about my birth, is the Sung family itself peculiar?"

Sung JiHan and Sung Ji-ah.

Both of them had talents that stood out on BattleNet.

There was no need to mention Sung JiHan.

And Sung Ji-ah was also one of the few Saint classes on BattleNet.

And Yoon Sae-ah, who was Sung Ji-ah's daughter, also received a transcendent gift like being in a waiting state.

There were some parts that couldn't be explained just by attributing it to coincidence.

"But then again, I can't know the family background since my parents passed away..."

Sung JiHan stopped thinking about the unanswered question.

He decided to check the rewards and confirmations he obtained from this game.

The first thing that caught his eye was the remaining stats +20.

In addition to gaining +10 as the first-place reward, he was able to allocate a total of 20 stats by leveling up 10 levels after the game ended.

"I invested everything in Void..."

By investing points in Void every time he grew, the Void stat, which was 60, became 64 when Sung JiHan invested all 20 remaining stats.

Although he had to consume 5 remaining stats every time he raised it by one because the first digit became 6.

"But it's still worth investing."

Sung JiHan reviewed the battle on BattleNet a while ago.

If he hadn't strengthened his abilities with Void, he would have died long before dying to the players of the Sun faction.

Fighting against human players on Earth was enough even without Void.

But to fight against opponents in higher levels, the power of Void was necessary.

"Since the absorption limit has also increased by 30. I'm still far from reaching MAX. I can invest without any burden."

He decided to focus on investing in Void every time he leveled up in the future.

He checked the title reward he received by clearing the epic quest.

[Agent of Void]

-A title given to those who cooperated with the will of Void.

-When equipped with the title, the power of Void is amplified, especially against beings that do not follow 'reason', the power of Void increases significantly.

-If a player equips a title even once, the probability of being bound to the Void's Will increases and the Void Acceptance Limit decreases by 15.

Unlike the titles that have only given merits so far.

This time, the Void's Proxy had clear merits and demerits.

"This... It's incredible to call this a title."

Most of the titles so far have been types that give experience point buffs.

Even if they increase stats, they only play a supportive role.

But the Void's Proxy had an effect that greatly enhanced Void abilities.

Especially.

"A significant increase against beings that do not follow the order...."

The order that the Void speaks of.

Sung JiHan now had a rough idea of what it was.

"They must be beings that are considered bugs on the Battle.net and do not follow the order."

Just like in the case of the tentacles of the Crimson Blood Demons.

Beings like bugs that were trying to achieve immortality by possessing others, they were beings that resisted the order.

Against such beings, the amplification of the Void's power was a tremendous effect.

And that was to be expected.

Among the opposing races encountered in the Space League, most of these "bug-level players" were the core forces of the opponents.

To have a title that amplifies the power of the Void every time you face the strongest of the opposing race....

"There may be side effects, but I have to equip it unconditionally."

Even though the risk of being bound to the Void increased, this title had to be equipped.

Especially, because there might be a god of war wandering with those "bug-level players".

He had to get used to using the enhanced power of the Void while equipping it.

["Would you like to equip the title 'Void's Proxy'?]

"Yes."

["Equipped the title 'Void's Proxy'.]

[The power of the Void is further amplified.]

[The Void Acceptance Limit decreases by 15. If the Void abilities reach the Acceptance Limit, they will be bound to the Void's Will unconditionally.]

[If you subdue several beings that do not follow the 'order', the title can be upgraded by the 'Void's Will'.]

The Void's Will that promised to upgrade the title if more bug-level players were subdued.

It was difficult to predict what would happen when this double-edged sword of a title was upgraded.

"For now, the current situation is like riding a tiger... I have to keep going with the Void."

Sung JiHan made up his mind to actively use the power of the Void.

"For now, I've decided to take a break from leveling up. I should train with the amplified Void."

He entered the training ground again.

* * *

After Battle.net entered the main game.

The schedules of Battle.net players were all centered around the Space League matches.

Although the World Championships League was a system where nations competed for rankings among themselves.

The Space League matches were games that determined the very survival of humanity.

It was natural for all the focus to be on the Space League.

And the day the third Space League game was held was in early April.

At that time, it was also a season when regional league matches were held in each country.

"We need to adjust this schedule."

"We need to leave a week before and after the Space League matches empty."

Considering the players' fatigue, the World Battle.net Federation adjusted the schedule for national team matches.

"Um... Won't there be too many matches at this time?"

"Well, it's the National Team Competition."

"The most important thing is to prepare for the Space League matches. The players need a week of rest."

"But the national team matches overlap too much..."

"Compared to the Space League, the national team matches are less fatiguing, aren't they?"

"Let's go with it then."

As a result,

From the end of March to early April 2021,

The Hell Race began.

-Wow... Is this revised schedule for real?

-As a viewer, there's a lot to watch, so it's fun haha.

-The Taiwan match, the China match, and then the Space League... Are they all happening within two weeks? Wow.

-Yeah, especially the Taiwan match and the China match are happening in one week haha.

-The national team players must be exhausted.

-Didn't we have the Taiwan match before? Why are we having it again?

-The early April schedule was moved up, that's why.

-Sung JiHan must be exhausted...

-No, he'll probably be banned and won't be able to play the matches haha.

-Yeah, just stay like the Totem of Victory.

Korea's Battle.net Center.

Director No Youngjun sighed as he watched the reactions of people who liked having many matches.

"I understand that the Space League is important, but the schedule is too tight."

"They should have adjusted the schedule earlier. What's wrong with those Federation guys?"

"That's what I'm saying. The Federation guys are like this with their work... Are the players all ready?"

"Yes. Most of them have come to the Battle.net Center. We can't reach Sung JiHan because he's in training..."

"Hmm... Is that so?"

When it comes to Sung JiHan, who cannot be reached when he's in the training room,

Director No Youngjun stroked his chin and thought.

"If we have JiHan, we'll have a complete team... But even without him, I think we can win against Taiwan."

When Korea faced Taiwan without Sung JiHan in the boss selection match,

They had the experience of winning.

In the previous Taiwan match, where they played with the King of Swords as the leader,

"The old player was a bit strong in the first game... But after that, he didn't show any threatening performance."

The old player was a bit of a concern.

But after the Korea match, he didn't show any remarkable performance.

On the other hand, the Korean national team added a rookie archer named Yoon Sae-ah,

To the existing strong lineup of Sung JiHan and the King of Swords.

"Unlike the Japan match, Taiwan doesn't have stronger supporters than us... And even if the Golem map keeps appearing, we have a chance of winning."

No matter how much he thought about it,

This Taiwan match was a game that they couldn't possibly lose.

"You can call JiHan starting from the China match. We'll have a fierce battle during the Space League."

"Understood. Should we stop contacting him then?"

"No. Keep trying to contact him. Sung JiHan must come for the China match, right? But is the training facility he went to completely cut off from the outside?"

"Yes. According to Yoon SeA, even she can't reach him..."

"Well, that's a problem. We really need him for the China match."

Perhaps due to the significant difference in objective strength, the coaching staff had no interest in the Taiwan match.

"Hmm... Is there no way to contact him?"

They had already confirmed Sung JiHan's victory in the Taiwan match and were now contemplating how to contact him for the next game.

"Well... Should we sponsor something?"

"The Battle Tube isn't turned on."

"Maybe leave a message on the bulletin board..."

"Sung JiHan's Battle Tube doesn't even have a bulletin board."

"Oh, really? So there are only videos?"

"Yes. It's known that editing is done by the Waiting Guild..."

No matter how much they thought about it, it seemed impossible to contact Sung JiHan in the Void Training Ground.

If this continued, they worried that they wouldn't be able to use Sung JiHan until the China match.

At that moment...

"You don't have to worry. I'm here."

The door to the Strategy Analysis Room opened, and Sung JiHan walked in.

"S-Sung JiHan?"

"You've come all the way here...!"

Unlike other national team players, Sung JiHan received special treatment where he didn't have to come to the center.

When he, who always stayed in the penthouse, came to the Strategy Analysis Room, the coaching staff's eyes lit up.

"Oh, JiHan. How did you know the schedule? We were having trouble because we couldn't contact you..."

"Yes. I will find a way to contact me when I'm in the training facility. The space is special, so normal communication doesn't work."

"I see. Well, thank you. But, you don't really have to participate in the Taiwan match. You can rest for the China match and the Space League game."

Due to the significant difference in strength between Taiwan and them.

Coach No Young-jun told Sung JiHan that he could rest.

"No. I plan to participate. It's not like one more game will be a burden."

"Really? Well, thank you. Since we'll be banning you in Taiwan, it'll be much easier for us here."

After going through several games recently.

Sung JiHan had established himself as the unrivaled strongest player among humanity.

He was considered the player to ban in every country.

Once he was banned, there would be no need for Yoon Se-jin and Yoon SeA to be banned.

From the coach's perspective, even if Sung JiHan couldn't play in the game, it became easier to manage the series just by consuming the opponent's ban card.

"A ban, huh..."

Sung JiHan smiled slightly and changed the subject.

"Can I see the game footage of the old Taiwanese player who played against us?"

"Oh... That person? Alright, let's prepare it right away."

Watching the coaching staff move swiftly according to the coach's instructions.

Sung JiHan recalled Pithia's words.

-Except for the wandering god, he is the closest to being a god of nothingness. It's not about winning, it's impossible to withstand even a minute in front of his sword.

Thinking about the free prophecy and the nameless martial arts, Sung JiHan and Pithia made a bet within a minute.

'I wonder how it will turn out.'

Watching the old man's martial arts unfold in the video.

Sung JiHan, who was confident in victory, prepared for the Taiwan match that all Koreans were certain of winning.
