The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2
chapter-442

Fwoosh…!

White flame erupted from the Dragon Lord’s head pierced by the spear.

His elongated vertical pupils wriggled wildly.

[How did you… overcome my Dragon Speech?]

“Even if it’s Dragon Speech, it’s inferior to the Domination Code.”

Seong Jihan recalled when the Dragon Lord used Dragon Speech a little while ago.

The Dragon Speech of the Lord, which had paid the price of shedding one skin.

As the corpse of the Level 9 Dragon Constellation fell to the ground,

Letters similar to the Domination Code were transparently engraved in the air.

‘At a glance, that was clearly an inferior version of the Domination Code.’

He was said to be the Red Administrator’s pet, so did he imitate his master’s code?

Seong Jihan, who discovered the Domination Code, could have immediately canceled the Dragon Speech.

But he decided to take advantage of it and pretended to be under its influence.

After all, his right arm had reached the level where he could reattach it even if it was cut off.

Meanwhile, when Seong Jihan brought up the Domination Code,

[…Domination Code? Don’t tell me you can perfectly operate that too?]

The Dragon Lord opened his eyes wide in disbelief.

“Not to the point of perfection. But I can easily overcome your Dragon Speech. You should have imitated your master’s better.”

[…You bastard.]

When his master was mentioned, the Dragon Lord’s face contorted.

But Seong Jihan didn’t care.

[Stat Red increases by 5.]

[Stat Martial Soul increases by 3.]

He was burning the Dragon Lord’s head with sacred flame and absorbing stats.

‘I wish it would burn a little longer.’

He thought only Red would increase, but it also raised Martial Soul.

Is it because mana previously belonged to the category of Martial Soul?

Seong Jihan smiled at the message showing his stats growing rapidly due to the sacred flame.

Dragon Lord.

He thought he would possess overwhelming strength befitting a Great Constellation.

But after actually fighting him, he was an opponent that could be handled entirely with the Red authority.

All the abilities he possessed were inferior versions of Stat Red.

As Seong Jihan continued to stab with his spear and raise the sacred flame,

[…I will shed two skins.]

The Dragon Lord attempted to shed his skin.

Crack…!

A layer of dark red serpent’s skin was shed.

Immediately, another one was shed from inside.

Then,

Thud!

The skins that fell to the sides quickly turned into two dragon corpses.

The flame that had been attached to the Dragon Lord’s body immediately moved to them.

The impact that the Lord’s head had received was all transferred to the shed skins.

The Phoenix Spear that Seong Jihan had stabbed also smoothly came out during the process of the Dragon Lord shedding his skin.

‘This wasn’t in the Red authority. The Dragon Lord seems to have the best skin shedding ability.’

If Martial God’s head was also like that, could he also shed his skin?

Seong Jihan thought so and stabbed the pushed spear back in.

Kang!

[There won’t be a second time.]

Unlike before, the mouth of the serpent’s head that closed was quite solid.

After bouncing off the spear, the Dragon Lord quickly flew into the sky.

His movement was the most nimble among what had been seen so far.

-When Seong Jihan was being Dominationled, I thought it was over…

-He pretended to be under the influence of Dragon Speech lol. He made him shed two skins.

-When the Dragon Lord descended, he came down leisurely, but when he’s running away, he’s fast as hell lol

-If he stays still, he’ll shed his skin again, so of course he has to run away with all his might.

The viewers mocked the fleeing Dragon Lord.

-But does he have unlimited skins? How many times will he keep shedding? ㅡㅡ

-He has shed a total of 5 so far. Originally, he should have 10 heads, so there should be 5 skins left, right?

-Then there are 5 dragons left.

-He might have eaten not only Level 9 constellations but also Level 8 ones, so there might be fewer dragons.

-Anyway, half of his power has been stripped away lol

People tried to estimate how long the Dragon Lord would last based on the skins he had shed so far.

Meanwhile,

[You have subdued two of the highest-level constellations.]

[Your level increases by 10.]

Due to the Dragon Lord’s skin shedding, Seong Jihan’s level rose significantly again.

[Stat Red increases by 4.]

[Stat Martial Soul increases by 2.]

He didn’t forget to collect stats from the burning dragon corpses.

‘The skin used earlier with Dragon Speech doesn’t count as one I killed.’

What a pity.

If that was included, the level would have risen by 25.

‘Still, he’s the one who has made me grow the most recently. This guy.’

Seong Jihan looked at the Dragon Lord floating in the sky with satisfied eyes.

A snake that looked creepy at first, but looked prettier the more levels rose.

“Hey, I understand now. Why the Red chose you as a pet.”

[…What nonsense are you talking about?]

“Now that my level has risen by 15, even a snake looks a bit cute. If you raise my level a little more, I might also take a snake as a pet.”

[You bastard…! If it was my main body, I would have torn you to death right away!]

When Seong Jihan emphasized him being a pet, the Dragon Lord shook his head furiously.

But,

“Yeah, sure. If it was your main body, maybe Dragon Speech might have worked. But… you’re not the main body, are you?”

Swoosh. Swoosh.

He twirled the spear and showed composure.

“Your attacks, not a single one is working.”

[…I admit that my power has not yet reached the Administrator’s authority with an avatar. But do you think that’s all the power I have?]

Zing…!

As the Dragon Lord released mana,

A huge magic circle began to overlap and be drawn in the sky.

The Dragon Lord, who tried to suppress Seong Jihan with grand magic as the Dragon Flame and Dragon Speech didn’t work.

But,

“If that was so powerful, you would have used it from the beginning.”

In Seong Jihan’s eyes, the magic circle filling the sky only looked like the Dragon Lord’s struggle.

After all, compared to the Dragon Flame and Dragon Speech, the efficiency of power in grand magic was relatively poor.

[I didn’t use it because I had to leave the hand intact. Now I will grind you to dust and take the Red Administrator’s remains from there.]

“Is that so? But what you said earlier. The same goes for me.”

[…]

“I haven’t used all my power.”

Hiss…

With those words, the energy of the void rose from Seong Jihan’s face.

[The void… Didn’t you use it earlier?]

“Yeah, until now you were too easy.”

Seong Jihan lightly replied to the Dragon Lord who was shocked to see this.

“Now, it’s a bit worth fighting.”

Swoosh!

Holding a sword and spear, he charged into the sky.

The final match of the arena.

The battle between the Dragon Lord, who descended through the Level 9 constellations, and Seong Jihan.

The end was slowly coming into view.

“The Dragon Lord is no longer shedding his skin. He’s trying to endure somehow.”

[Rather than enduring, it seems he gave up.]

From the commentator’s seat, Seong Jiah pointed at the screen with her petrified finger.

The Dragon Lord, who had been fighting with Seong Jihan in the sky and was eventually pierced by his spear again,

Was being engulfed by white flame without using the skin shedding he had used several times before.

[Earlier, when he was stabbed by the spear, he tried to somehow suppress it with mana. But now he’s just leaving it alone.]

“Is that so? Then is it the end… What a pity.”

[What a pity? For what?]

“If you’re going to fight, fill up the 8 hours. It ended in 7 hours and 21 minutes.”

The Shadow Queen’s voice was filled with regret.

-The Queen is really greedy, seriously lol

-Fighting for 7 hours should be enough lol

-But the Dragon Lord really isn’t shedding his skin anymore.

-Seong Jiah sees well, better than the Queen.

Indeed, Seong Jiah, who possessed the Divine Eye, had a higher hit rate that was easier for ordinary viewers to understand compared to the Shadow Queen.

As people were anticipating whether Seong Jiah’s prediction would be correct this time while looking at the game screen,

[…I admit it. With an avatar, I cannot subdue you.]

The Dragon Lord, who was burning in white flame, spoke in a rather calm voice.

[But the main body will be different. When that time comes, I will surely wash away this humiliation…]

Fwoosh…!

With those last words, the serpent’s head was completely engulfed in flame and disappeared.

Then the last Level 9 constellation, the Seven-Horned Blue Dragon, fell to the ground.

-Why does this guy only admit things? lol He’s been admitting and admitting since earlier…

-He’s not really admitting it, did you see him talking about his main body at the end? lol

-Seriously pathetic.

-Guys like that will get 100% beaten even if they come with their main body lol

The human viewers laughed at the Dragon Lord and rejoiced at Seong Jihan’s victory.

But,

-Wow… Does this make sense?

-The Dragon Lord lost? Even after fusing Level 9 constellations like that?

-Even if it’s the worst matchup due to the Red authority… Still, that Dragon Lord lost?

-They’re Level 9 constellations. Level 9!!

-That guy isn’t even a constellation!

The alien viewers were shocked to see the result of the game.

Although the Dragon Lord’s authority was not favorable to Seong Jihan due to the matchup,

They never imagined that a Great Constellation would be pushed back like this without ever gaining the upper hand.

-Is Seong Jihan still a constellation candidate? Even still?

-There was a player like this so far?

-What? Really? Is it a racial buff? I heard humans also won the beginner’s arena this time?

-I was curious so I tried to change my race with a conversion kit but I couldn’t select Human. Seems like a cheat race.

-No… If it’s a cheat race, it can’t remain at a low rank;

To the point where theories of humanity being a cheat race emerged, the alien races were shocked by this result.

‘Dragon Lord. I love you.’

Seong Jihan, who finished the final match, smiled broadly as he saw the levels and stats that rose significantly from a single battle.

The Dragon Lord, who shed his skin several times and raised his level by a total of 40,

Had also upgraded his Red and Martial Soul stats nicely.

‘I didn’t even turn on constellation traits, but it was so easy to deal with him. He’s really a nice Great Constellation…’

With this mood, he could raise a hundred snakes in his penthouse.

Seong Jihan recalled the serpent’s head that had given generously once more, and saw a new message pop up.

[Special reward, ‘Racial Evolution Bonus’ is given.]

[Strength increases by +4.]

[Agility increases by +4.]

[Mana increases by +3.]

The owner of the arena kept his promise, and this time it was a racial evolution bonus without fire affinity.

However,

Wriggle. Wriggle.

After receiving the evolution bonus, red eyes were moving little by little on the back of Seong Jihan’s hand.

‘I gained too much Stat Red this time, and mana also stimulated the Red’s hand, so that is why… The seal will probably be released soon.’

When this guy wakes up, he’ll likely cause a fuss saying to burn humanity right away.

Growing so much this time also has its downsides.

Seong Jihan thought so and looked around his room.

‘Come to think of it, that Gilgamesh… Wasn’t he caught?’

Martial God’s head that was said to be the same as the Dragon Lord’s.

Only after finishing the battle did Seong Jihan become curious about the whereabouts of the information provider.

Did he perhaps send a message?

Seong Jihan opened the cell phone placed on one side of his room.

Then,

[…Seong Jihan. Because you moved your mouth recklessly, my youth has disappeared.]

[I gave you the information for nothing. Trusting you…]

[No, you won?]

[You won against the Dragon Lord…]

[…]

Looks like Martial God found out.

But why are there so many dots in the message?

Seong Jihan was frowning while looking at Gilgamesh’s nutrient-deficient messages.

Ding.

A message arrived in real time.

[…Fine. Try calling me father. Then I shall forgive you.]

“…Has he gone mad?”
