Chapter 465

'Was Azure also related to cold energy?'

The Azure stat.

He had thought this ability given by Ashoka was specialized only in eliminating red.

That's why the grade he received was FFF, wasn't it?

However, this ability increased from the Ice Breaths shot by the dragons prepared by the Dragon Lord.

'I thought it had nothing to do with cold energy.'

He would need to do some research.

Seong Jihan quietly observed the internal changes while taking the Ice Breaths with his whole body.

The rapidly lowering temperature and the cold energy freezing the surroundings,

In fact, couldn't even properly attack Seong Jihan's Martial Soul domain.

However,

'The Ice Breaths are persistently trying to seal the power of Red located in the right arm.'

The Ice Breaths spewing from the heads of hundreds of Silver Dragons,

Most of the power was persistently focused on Seong Jihan's right arm, trying to constrict Red.

It was quite a systematic movement to simply be because it was an ice attribute.

As Seong Jihan was buried in the Ice Breaths,

[Hoho… Indeed. You can't easily ignite the fire.]

A triumphant voice was heard from afar.

The Dragon Lord's excitement could be felt even here.

'Well, Red's manifestation can't be blocked to this extent though.'

Stat Red, which had become 200 after embedding the red eye.

Although the value had greatly decreased compared to before, the power that could be drawn out was stronger than then.

The experience of briefly experiencing being the Red Administrator had greatly increased the proficiency of this ability.

Honestly, Ice Breaths of this level,

Could be completely cleaned up by burning his right hand.

However,

[Stat 'Azure' increases by 2.]

As the Azure stat rose again,

Seong Jihan just pretended to be hit and stayed still for now.

Free stat increases were always welcome.

As Seong Jihan stood still and kept taking the Ice Breaths,

-No… What? Is it over already?

-There's no way this human would be overpowered so helplessly.

-Even if the Ice Breaths of Silver Dragons are powerful, it doesn't make sense for Seong Jihan, who fought the Martial God, to be unable to move like this.

-Did the Dragon Lord use some special method?

The alien viewers couldn't easily understand the current situation.

No matter how strong dragons were, the Martial God that Seong Jihan had faced was an extraordinary being that far surpassed them.

Seong Jihan, who had endured against him, was restrained by just this level of attack?

It was a situation that was hard to understand.

While the viewers were arguing about the current situation without even imagining that his stats were increasing,

[Stat 'Azure' increases by 1.]

'Seems like it won't increase any further now.'

Seong Jihan looked at the Azure stat that had risen to 10 and sensed that the growth had ended.

Since he had absorbed all the power, should he start moving now?

As he was about to move,

[You were so confident, but is this all you've got? You'll just die like this.]

On the contrary, the Dragon Lord started worrying that Seong Jihan might die.

* * *

[Surrender. I'll show you mercy specially.]

The Dragon Lord said that and stated his conditions.

[Take out my heart right now and cut off your right arm to offer it. Then I'll at least spare your life.]

Swish…

As the proposal came out, the breaths weakened.

Was he giving him some leeway to answer?

"Is that really all it takes?"

[That's right. It will be the day I ascend as the new administrator. I'll forgive you specially.]

The Dragon Lord, who was already speaking from the position of the victor, tried to continue.

Seong Jihan listened to him for a bit, then shook his head from side to side.

"I appreciate that, but… I don't really need to worry about my life."

[Are you deliberately trying to die?]

Swish…!

As soon as those words ended, the Ice Breaths became even more powerful, but

"With this, even if I want to die, I can't."

Whoosh!

As Seong Jihan's right arm burned,

Swish…

The Ice Breaths all turned into steam at once and soon disappeared.

Then, the surrounding scenery gradually became visible.

Seong Jihan was summoned in midair, surrounded by hundreds of Silver Dragons.

-Why are there only silver dragons everywhere;

-Is this really the Dragon Lord's Lair? I can't tell what's what because I only see Silver Dragons.

-It's also a sight to see dragons sticking their heads out so densely…

-Did he mobilize this many dragons just to stop one Seong Jihan?

-With this many dragons, you could invade a decent planet.

When the Ice Breaths were swept away, all that was visible was a world of Silver Dragons.

They really prepared properly for 3 days, Seong Jihan inwardly admired, then,

[No… You were able to manifest Red?]

From behind the horde of Silver Dragons, the Dragon Lord's startled voice was heard.

"Yeah. I was just taking these Ice Breaths for a bit because they were interesting."

[Oh no… Yggdrasil. Your method doesn't work at all!]

The name of the Green Administrator, Yggdrasil, came up here?

'When did he get involved?'

Before, he threatened to press the World Tree ignition device,

But now that the device was broken, there was no way to deal with the Green Administrator.

Seong Jihan frowned.

'I thought it was strange that Azure increased from being hit by cold energy, but it was taught by Yggdrasil.'

Somehow, a method to suppress Red that Yggdrasil had tried was contained in those Ice Breaths.

'That attack successfully pressured Red's manifestation structure.'

If it was Seong Jihan before experiencing being the Red Administrator, he would have struggled quite a bit against those Ice Breaths.

But not only had his proficiency in Red increased,

To the current Seong Jihan, who also possessed the Azure stat, that was just a good opportunity to raise his stats.

[…Yggdrasil. You were confident you could definitely eliminate Red, what the hell is this!]

As the Dragon Lord still couldn't believe the current situation, he denounced the Green Administrator.

[The Cosmic Tree Yggdrasil admires that you handle Red better than before.]

[And asks if you have already become the Red Administrator.]

Ignoring the Dragon Lord,

Yggdrasil had entered Seong Jihan's channel and was asking him questions.

"What do you mean Red Administrator… Why are you helping the Dragon Lord?"

[The Cosmic Tree Yggdrasil answers that it's all for you.]

"…What nonsense is this now?"

[He says your Red ability has become too strong, so it needs to be controlled at least once here.]

[And he points out that the eye shape on the back of your hand seems a bit different from before.]

Seong Jihan listened to Yggdrasil's sophistry, then raised his eyebrows at the last message.

Honestly, the shape of the eyeball embedded in the back of his hand wasn't much different from before.

Indeed, did it look different in the eyes of an administrator?

[Yggdrasil! Are you ignoring my words now and talking to that bastard? How much did I give you this time…!]

Meanwhile, the Dragon Lord, who noticed Yggdrasil talking, became enraged.

Seong Jihan looked at the dragons and gestured.

"Hey, don't hide behind the kids and chatter, come out."

[What did you say…]

"How long are you going to hide behind these Silver Dragons?"

Swish.

Seong Jihan took out the Phoenix Spear from his inventory.

As soon as he grasped it, the spear instantly ignited.

Fundamental Divine Arts,

Heavenly Dragon Thunder Fire:

Dragon Thunder.

As lightning poured from the flames,

Whoosh…

The bodies of the Silver Dragons touched by the Dragon Thunder all ignited at once, and the encirclement rapidly began to crumble.

[A-Attack again!]

[For the Lord!]

The surviving Silver Dragons tried to somehow block Seong Jihan's attack and counterattack, but

"These guys won't do."

Zap!

As the Dragon Thunder flashed once more from the tip of the spear, the Silver Dragons began to be massacred.

-No, the dragons… are being swept away like mere mobs.

-The Silver Dragons called by the Dragon Lord should be quite strong, right?

-There might be constellation-level ones among those dying there? Although their level would be low.

-No, didn't Seong Jihan say he used up all his power fighting the Martial God; He said this is when he's at his weakest…

-You believed those words? Hehe;

He made such a fuss saying he had become weaker to get people to participate in the tournament.

Seeing Seong Jihan massacring the dragon race, the alien viewers only realized the maxim that there was no one to trust on BattleNet.

Meanwhile,

[Level increases by 1.]

Seong Jihan made a dissatisfied expression upon seeing the message that his level had risen.

When he wanted to raise it so much, it didn't go up well,

But his level rose immediately after killing just some Silver Dragons.

'If this level rises 26 more, I'll become a constellation.'

For Seong Jihan, who had to catch the Dragon Lord before becoming a constellation,

The level up message wasn't very welcome now.

He had to catch the Dragon Lord before the level rose further.

'I can't see where he's hiding.'

After the encirclement was broken, Seong Jihan looked at the surroundings that had opened up.

Under the gray sky,

On the flat wasteland, huge eggs were densely standing.

-Those eggs… are they dragon eggs? How many are there? Wow.

-I thought we'd be summoned to the Dragon Lord's lair… but it feels like we came to a giant incubation chamber lol

-But the Dragon Lord himself is nowhere to be seen.

-Is that the end of his measures with just the Silver Dragons?

For being the Dragon Lord's lair, there were only eggs in the world.

Seong Jihan looked at this and his eyes sank.

'To return using the Golden Wheel, I have to finish within a day.'

That bastard Dragon Lord.

Considering how he was running his mouth behind the Silver Dragon horde, he seems to be here, but

Somehow he hid his presence well, so even Seong Jihan's senses couldn't detect his existence.

The only thing that seemed to have a connection,

'Among those eggs, there seems to be a faint trace of the Lord… Do I have to find him by breaking them all?'

Swish.

Seong Jihan moved the spear once.

Fundamental Divine Art,

Triad of Martial Mastery:

Total Annihilation Horizontal Sweep.

In an instant, the world was split in half,

And the dragon eggs were cut apart all at once.

Hazy smoke rose from inside them, and the split eggs shriveled up in an instant.

-All the eggs are breaking. Wow.

-The Dragon Lord's eggs are all being shattered, where did he go?

-When did he excitedly run his mouth, and now he's as quiet as a ghost;

-Did he already run away? Lol

Even while the eggs were breaking, the Dragon Lord was eerily quiet.

From the outside, it really seemed like he had run away.

However,

'It still feels like he's here…'

Although he hadn't pinpointed the Dragon Lord's location yet,

It seemed he hadn't left this place yet.

'Should I break the eggs?'

Seong Jihan swung the spear a few more times and shattered the surrounding eggs, but.

[Level increases by 1.]

When the level up message popped up again, he stopped attacking for a while.

No, how does the level go up just from breaking a few eggs?

'At this rate, I'll become a constellation from breaking eggs here.'

He would have to find another way.

Seong Jihan thought for a moment, then opened his inventory and took out the Dragon Lord's heart.

"Hey, this is what you were looking for."

Then,

Swish…

The Dragon Lord's energy rose from the eggs all at once.

It seemed to resonate with the heart and manifest power, but

[Not yet. I have to endure until the reinforcements arrive…]

As the Dragon Lord said that,

The Lord's energy rising from the eggs quickly subsided.

'Ah, this bastard is really persistent.'

Because he would lose in a head-on match,

Was he trying to somehow hold out while calling dragon reinforcements?

As Seong Jihan was pondering how to lure him out,

Whirring…

Light rose from the eye embedded in Seong Jihan's right hand.

[I will help you.]

"…You will?"

[A pet reacts to its master's voice…]
