Chapter 483
Amidst the seal forged by the Administrator, where darkness reigned.
However, after Seong Jihan’s comment regarding the Sun King’s transformation.
Significant changes, even detectable by ordinary observers, began to unfold inside.
Flash…!
A brilliant white beam pierced through the darkness.
It extended toward where the Sun King stood.
“Hey, can you zoom in on that light?”
With that, the screen quickly zoomed in.
Obedient indeed.
Seong Jihan thought, examining the massive beam.
A white-bearded elderly man stood within.
He contrasted sharply with the world dyed in brilliant white, calmly stroking his beard amidst the extending light.
And behind him, several colossal weapons were stationed.
Weapons far too large for any human to wield.
These emanated a faint blue light within the brilliant white.
‘Constellation relics… Has the Martial God supported him?’
A collection of 50 pieces of Constellation relics.
The crimson light emitted from them connected with Dongbang Sak.
The Martial God had bolstered his strength in such manner, so it appeared Dongbang Sak too gained such support.
‘But only 50? The number is rather small.’
Seong Jihan recalled his past battle with the Martial God.
Back then, connecting to at least 500 was standard, this time, merely providing such little support seemed lacking.
If the Sun King can’t be stopped, he’d be overtaken, yet he offers only limited support.
‘Is he afraid that giving too much power would cause Dongbang Sak to slip from his control?’
Such a stingy fellow.
As Seong Jihan clicked his tongue in disapproval.
-Oh… Is that the Cosmic Demon?
-I never thought the seal would be broken from that side.
-Even if it’s the Cosmic Demon, they can’t match the Sun King’s force.
-He’s at least receiving support with the Constellation relics, though.
-Only 50 pieces… Didn’t the Martial God mobilize 500 when fighting Seong Jihan?
-Why provide so little support now?
Even the alien viewers pointed this out.
During the battle against Seong Jihan, who was merely a Constellation candidate, the Martial God mobilized 500 pieces.
Against the Sun King, who might have ties with the Red, using only a tenth of that puzzled everyone.
Then.
Thunk.
Dongbang Sak stopped stroking his beard.
“As expected… You’ve grown stronger than anticipated. Sun King. Or should I call you the Red Administrator?”
Raising his hand.
Sword of the Light.
The light piercing through the seal gathered at his feet.
What emerged was a sword glimmering with light.
‘55 swords… Emerging here.’
Instead of the Taiji Sword, the light swords that were created by Dongbang Sak.
The main culprits behind the distortion of the Martial Soul.
“Nothing has changed. Nothing can penetrate Tuseong.”
As Dongbang Sak lowered his arm.
The swords shot toward the seal.
And then.
Hssss…!
A bright mark was etched onto the sealed red.
The 55 swords rapidly moved, carving a massive pattern over the dark seal.
‘Is that… An adaptation of the Nine Palace Eight Trigram?’
A pattern similar to the seal, the Nine Palace Eight Trigram.
The only difference was the scale, enough to engrave the entire darkness-sealed red.
And then.
As the light in the pattern flashed.
The Sun King’s power was sucked into the formation.
-Oh… It’s over…
-50 pieces were enough for the Cosmic Demon…
-That wasn’t the Sun King’s main body?
-What kind of pattern absorbs light so easily?
-It reminds me of the seal the Martial God used against other Constellations…
-Great Constellations aren’t that impressive, it seems.
-Perhaps humanity is the real issue here.
The Great Constellation Dragon Lord had lost completely to Seong Jihan, a Constellation candidate.
With the Sun King’s power absorbed quickly by Dongbang Sak’s formation.
The alien viewers debated whether Great Constellations were trivial or if humanity was a bugged race.
The swift and overwhelming disappearance of the Sun King’s light was indeed amazing.
‘If that guy isn’t the Red Administrator but the Sun King, this would end here.’
Seong Jihan thought while observing the vanishing light.
The seal perfectly drawn over the darkness, absorbing all external light.
If he were the original Sun King, there was no escaping from this formation.
The 55 light swords had created an impenetrable seal.
However.
[Fufu…]
Ssss…
From within the seal, a red light flashed.
Soon, flames began to ignite over the pattern.
Unable to invade the interior,
flames erupted over the drawn symbol.
They quickly gathered, soon transforming into the shape of a giant.
[Erasing species limits won’t stop a monster like this from emerging.]
A giant of light, covered in red eyes throughout its body.
A familiar figure by now to the human viewers.
-Holy, those red eyes.
-Oh, it really is the Red Administrator.
-He’s got incredible persistence. When will this guy finally disappear?
-To reach the top rank on BattleNet, you need that kind of tenacity, it seems…
-With so many monsters here, that resilience is basic…
-Still, couldn’t he go somewhere else instead of always showing up?
Seeing the Red Administrator appear again, viewers expressed heated resentment.
Dongbang Sak, observing him, stroked his beard.
“Are you the Red Administrator?”
[No, I am the Sun King. Calling me a foolish disciple unable to gather strength despite the long time would fit better.]
Calling himself the Sun King while criticizing his own apprentice.
Both in appearance and insinuation, anyone could identify him as the Red Administrator.
“You really are the Red Administrator. This works out well.”
Snap.
Dongbang Sak ripped a few hairs from his beard.
“Allow me to test this.”
The hairs clumped together.
Swoosh…
Soon transforming into a giant blue sword.
[This is…]
The Red Administrator, who had previously appeared relaxed,
Upon seeing the sword, widened the red eyes across his body.
Naturally so.
The blue sword Dongbang Sak had summoned.
[Isn’t that the Blue Administrator’s weapon?]
Greatly resembled Seong Jihan’s Blue Sword.

‘…Why is he using that?’
Seong Jihan furrowed his brow upon seeing the blue sword in Dongbang Sak’s hand.
Always learning from Dongbang Sak,
It felt odd to see his own skill mirrored.
[Are you in league with the Blue Administrator?]
“It’s not identical. Just a mere imitation.”
[Very fine imitation indeed.]
“I possess some minor skills.”
Poof…
Dongbang Sak pointed the sword tip at the Red Administrator.
“The blue created to sever red… Let’s see if mine achieves a similar result.”
Lowering the blue sword.
The blue aura from the blade.
Instantly sliced through the Red Administrator’s body.
But.
[Surely not in league, huh.]
Fwoosh…!
Flames erupted from the cleft in his body.
Quickly restoring the Red Administrator to his original form.
[Your sword doesn’t sever me at all.]
“Is that so? That’s good news, indeed.”
[…What?]
“This means there’s much more training left for this sword.”
Despite the evaluation that his blue sword was far weaker than Seong Jihan’s real one,
Dongbang Sak seemed elated.
“Then how about this?”
Ssss…
The sword expanded.
“Or perhaps this is better. The shape I’m most accustomed to.”
Morphing from the blue sword to a blue saber, it emitted a deeper blue aura.
-What’s that old man doing…
-Copying Seong Jihan now? No shame…
-Shouldn’t this be penalized? How dare he copy an Administrator’s authority?
-If he’s going to copy, why not the Red guy? This old man, seriously.
The human viewers, growing more exasperated at Dongbang Sak.
Seong Jihan opened his mouth with a sense of discomfort.
“…Well, I’ve taken much from him too. Still, feels weird when roles reverse.”
-Eh, it’s not the same, haha.
-Yeah, copying from our side is learning, others doing it is just stealing.
-But the Red Administrator says it’s not even close. So it’s likely just an imitation.
-True, it doesn’t seem to damage him at all.
As the viewers pointed out.
Dongbang Sak’s blue saber wasn’t inflicting significant harm on the Red Administrator.
Instead.
Crackle…!
The opponent, emitting flames and destructive energy, was overpowering him.
-The Cosmic Demon is losing ground.
-Well, his opponent is formidable…
-But the Sun King’s identity as the Red Administrator is revealed. Why aren’t the permanent Administrators intervening?
-When the Sun King sent messages earlier, it seemed not.
-The Red Administrator must have done something;
-Why isn’t he being apprehended?
As the alien viewers pondered why the permanent Administrators didn’t intervene despite the Red Administrator’s identity being clear,
“These cherished clothes… They’re quite damaged.”
Dongbang Sak, charred and with his clothes ablaze, stroked his beard observing the Red Administrator.
Conversely, the intact Red Administrator.
However.
[…Maintaining that formation and still standing. Impressive, Dongbang Sak.]
The numerous eyes embedded in the giant focused on the formation created by the 55 light swords.
Still active, the Nine Palace Eight Trigram , absorbing light.
Even as the Red Administrator spewed destructive energy, the formation remained intact.
[Without removing those swords, you’ll never defeat me.]
“I can’t do that. Your true target lies inside, doesn’t it?”
[Maintaining the formation, mimicking the Blue Administrator’s power… You’re a nuisance.]
“Thank you for the compliment.”
Dongbang Sak, lightly cupped his fist in thanks.
Seong Jihan deciphered their conversation.
‘Maintaining the Nine Palace Eight Trigram and facing the Red Administrator, hence imitating the Blue. The Blue abilities are designed to suppress the Red.’
The light swords’ Nine Palace Eight Trigram, defending the entire Tuseong.
Against the Sun King, it would be sufficient, but with the Red Administrator now in control.
He had to maintain the formation while fighting the Red Administrator.
Hence, he turned to the Blue for aid.
‘Hmm… If he masters it better than me, it would feel quite frustrating.’
Though he had learned much from Dongbang Sak through the Void,
This felt different.
He hoped Dongbang Sak would suppress the Red here,
while not overdeveloping Blue’s abilities.
With mixed feelings, Seong Jihan watched Dongbang Sak’s and the Red Administrator’s duel.
-That old man fights well, though…
-Seriously, his evasion skills are top-tier.
-Clothes burning that little in the hellfire is impressive;
-Is humanity weak because talents are concentrated in a few…?
-Did Seong Jihan and that old man hog all the talent?
-It makes sense to invest in promising people, but our imbalance is severe…
While impressed by Dongbang Sak, both alien and human viewers,
marveled at his exceptional skills.
“Hm, indeed.”
Slash!
This time the Red Administrator’s cleaved body, didn’t heal instantly.
[What…]
Fwoosh…
Flames flickered multiple times before the giant of light restored itself.
[You’ve already progressed…]
“Thanks to you. Improving through real challenges is enlightening.”
[Hah…!]
The Red Administrator’s lamentations resonated.
Seong Jihan shared the sentiment.
‘Already refining it?’
Everything would be exposed.
Biting a nail unconsciously while watching the blue saber,
[The distortion of Martial Soul rises by 3.]
[Martial Soul forms a minute link with Blue.]
‘Hmm…’
Unexpected messages appeared.
