Chapter 556

[Do you know what you've done?]

[To think the dog I raised would bite its master...]

[How dare you, how dare you, how dare you!]

At first, the White Administrator was raging, changing the letters.

[The meeting coordinates change daily. And today, the Black Administrator came in knowing this place...]

[Were you among the players who connected today?]

[Let's see. Among those who first connected to the channel, the one without activity records...]

He started tracking Seong Jihan in reverse.

[I didn't create activity records. Looks like I'll be caught.]

'It doesn't matter if the temporary account is tracked, right?'

[That's right. We can just discard that account. Only the Red used to create the account will be wasted.]

Then there was no real problem.

Stat Red could be filled just by stabbing a sword into a World Tree anyway.

Thinking this, Seong Jihan said to Yoon Seah.

"Seah, turn off that channel for now."

"Turn it off?"

"Yeah, the White Administrator has gone crazy now. We don't want you to get caught in the crossfire. Oh, by the way, do you have BattleTube activity records?"

"BattleTube activity records... Ah, I used to stream a lot before. When I was the top human ranker after you disappeared, uncle."

"Then you'll be excluded from suspects. Still, turn it off."

"Okay."

Beep.

Seong Jihan said as Yoon Seah's BattleTube screen turned off.

"But isn't White's seal too loose? They said his seal was extended by 1000 years, but he's running wild trying to track me down."

"About that... the messenger is saying that if they seal White any further here, the BattleNet communication network will collapse."

"The communication network?"

"Yeah. BattleTube would disappear too. So confining him to BattleTube is the best they can do."

The White Administrator... turned out he was in charge of communications.

So that was why he only got a slap-on-the-wrist punishment even after crossing the line several times.

"Then there's no point in sealing him no matter how many times they do it."

"W-well, they said to report immediately if he shows up in reality, as they'll impose sanctions right away."

"I see."

They couldn't do anything about him causing trouble inside BattleTube.

But if he tried to come out, they would deal with him then, was that it?

[Even for the White Administrator, what he can do inside BattleTube is limited. We don't need to worry too much about him for now.]

'That's true. It's a problem if he exerts influence outside.'

Seong Jihan replied like this, then suddenly thought.

'But what was he planning to do by tracking the temporary account?'

[Are you curious?]

'I'm wondering how far his authority extends.'

[If you're planning to access with a temporary account, I recommend doing it from outside Earth. I distorted the access location earlier, but if White monitors the temporary account in real-time, he might detect that you accessed from Earth.]

'I see.'

Better safe than sorry, huh?

"I'll be out for a bit."

"Okay, uncle."

Seong Jihan waved to Yoon Seah and opened a portal.

The destination was a frontier planet of the World Tree Alliance he had destroyed before.

The place where the D-rank World Tree had been uprooted.

Except for the areas Seong Jihan had burned, it was still full of life energy.

'Even with the World Tree uprooted, this place still seems habitable for living beings.'

As Seong Jihan thought this, looking at the lush green planet,

[The cause and effect relationship was wrong to begin with.]

'Why?'

[It's not that life sprouted because of the World Tree, but that the World Tree was planted where living beings already existed.]

'Ah, so they did that to exploit the life energy?'

[That's right. That's what they mean by 'pioneering'.]

Not developing uninhabitable land, but just planting World Trees on already habitable land.

Well, that was how the World Tree Alliance did things.

Seong Jihan looked around for a moment, then accessed BattleTube with the temporary account.

Then,

[You've come.]

[I've been waiting.]

Before entering the Informant W channel.

Letters were appearing from the main screen.

* * *

The White Administrator, who had already identified the temporary account as belonging to the Red Administrator and was waiting in advance,

Went further.

[The access coordinates are... a World Tree Alliance planet. You're still cautious, Red Administrator.]

He had even figured out the location where Seong Jihan accessed BattleTube.

'He certainly deserves to be called the ruler of BattleTube.'

When he set his mind on a target, he found out everything.

As Seong Jihan waited quietly to see what he would say next,

[Fine. I'll concede.]

[Let's co-own HeavenNet.]

The White Administrator was speaking as if he was doing a favor.

'...What kind of concession is co-ownership?'

[He's always been like that. The White Administrator.]

Seong Jihan was dumbfounded by the other's attitude.

But the Red Administrator seemed used to it, accepting it as natural.

And as the messages continued to appear, similar to before,

'Indeed, being confined to BattleTube, he doesn't have much.'

It only confirmed that the White Administrator couldn't do much from there.

'I'll just turn it off.'

[Good idea.]

As he was about to turn off BattleTube after confirming White's limitations,

Zing......

A message suddenly appeared on the screen.

[Alright. I'll... concede more.]

[I'll give you what you want.]

'What I want?'

It was probably just offering to give up more shares of HeavenNet that he didn't even own.

Seong Jihan was about to ignore the message and turn off the screen with an unimpressed face.

['White Administrator' is trying to grant Stat White Light.]

[Will you accept it?]

The message window that popped up again was enough to catch Seong Jihan's attention.

'White Light...?'

Pure white light.

Was this the White Administrator's stat?

[To think he's trying to grant White Light... He must have made up his mind in his own way.]

'What kind of ability is this?'

[White Light is White's unique ability... and the first stat of BattleNet.]

'The first?'

[Translator - Asura]

[Proofreader - Gun]

[Yes. White Light was number 0. Void was number 1.]

'I see.'

Then this White Light was an ability that started with BattleNet?

Seeing that its number was before Void, it seemed White existed before Black.

'How did someone so great end up trapped in BattleTube after being beaten by Black?'

[Being first doesn't necessarily mean being strong. Black's power is overwhelming.]

'True... So what is this White Light used for?'

[I don't know either. I only guessed it's related to White's domain, communication.]

'Hmm...'

It probably won't be very useful in combat if it was related to communication.

Seong Jihan thought this as he glanced at his status window.

'If I get White Light, I'll have all the Administrators' abilities.'

Besides Stat Blue and Red.

Seong Jihan already possessed the Green Administrator's ability 'Eternity' and the Black Administrator's ability 'Void'.

All five Administrators' abilities would be in his stat window if White Light was included.

Although Seong Jihan usually didn't have much of a collector's mentality, freёnovelkiss.com

Possessing all the Administrators' abilities was quite intriguing.

Still.

'Not now.'

Beep.

Seong Jihan turned off the screen without hesitation.

[You're not accepting it?]

'I need to minimize variables before dealing with the Green Administrator.'

Stat White Light.

In normal times, it might have been worth the risk to accept.

But now, while in conflict with the Green Administrator, the risk was too high.

[I see... Good thinking.]

'Aren't you disappointed? You said it was what you wanted.'

[I used to be. But not anymore. Being in here, I can achieve what I want.]

The Red Administrator, showing little interest in the White Light that he once coveted, insisted on staying inside Blue and Red.

He then asked Seong Jihan,

[What will you do with the temporary account? Should we discard it?]

'Ah, leave it for now. I'll think about White Light again after dealing with Yggdrasil.'

[Understood.]

Though he didn't accept White Light now,

It might be worth obtaining once there's room to breathe after handling Yggdrasil.

Seong Jihan left the temporary account, which was a route to obtain White Light, and returned to Earth.

One week later.

Kim Jihun was logging into the game every day, raising his level.

-Now he's just winning easily every time.

-I'm telling you, the first two games were the weird ones. lol

-Kim Jihun seems to have good battle sense.

-Isn't it because he's a male half-elf? They're a different species...

-Compared to other male half-elves playing games, he's clearly different.

-Well... the race is just overpowered lol

The first two losses were literally just bad luck.

Since then, Kim Jihun had been on a winning streak.

Viewers thought he had good battle sense watching his gameplay, but they believed the winning streak was largely due to his race.

'Well, that's true.'

Indeed, male half-elves playing games with humans was nothing short of a balance breaker.

Seong Jihan played the games in a way that overwhelmed opponents with racial advantages,

While making Kim Jihun appear to have decent battle sense.

Using martial arts like the old Seong Jihan would be too obvious.

"Master. I played as you do. How was it?"

This way of playing games was also good for having Ariel substitute.

"Yeah, just do it like that."

Today's game for Kim Jihun was played by his shadow, Ariel, not by Seong Jihan.

He was having Ariel control Kim Jihun in preparation for times when he'd be away.

Of course, it was still too early to trust her 100%, but.

"Uncle, I'll watch closely whether Ariel is running Kim Jihun."

Thanks to Yoon Seah, who was practically unemployed and had time to spare, watching over Ariel,

He could entrust Kim Jihun's control to her.

"This should be enough to leave for a while."

"Are you going to attack the Alliance?"

"Yeah. I found out the location of a lab. But the defenses are quite strict, so it won't be easy to control Kim Jihun at the same time."

Seong Jihan had learned the location of one World Tree Alliance lab through Karlein.

But the World Tree Alliance seemed to have noticed that the Red Administrator was targeting labs, as their defensive posture was strong.

"So you and Ariel control him together."

"Okay, okay. Don't worry about here and go."

"Alright. I will control Kim Jihun according to the master's lifestyle. Oh, but... master."

Ariel, who was controlling Kim Jihun by manipulating shadow energy in the living room,

Suddenly remembered something and made a perplexed expression.

"The Guild Master said there's an advertisement shoot today... what should we do about that?"

"Ah, that. It was bothersome, but this works out. You do it instead."

"M-me, shoot an advertisement too?"

"It's no big deal. Just do what they tell you there."

"Do what they tell me..."

As Ariel muttered this at Seong Jihan's words,

Yoon Seah chimed in from the side.

"I'll help too. I've shot some ads before."

"Ah, that's a relief then."

Ariel finally relaxed.

"Then I'll leave things here to you."

Seong Jihan said this and opened a portal.

The destination was the planet housing the Alliance's research facility.

'I hope there's a fragment of Gilgamesh.'

Thinking this, Seong Jihan entered the portal.
