The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Novel

* * *

The Valley of the Viscount of Naseed.

Baron, who had arrived first and was waiting for the other party members, grumbled when Sophia and her group arrived at the tower first.

"Sophia. Looks like you put in some effort. Pushing the tower first. Even though I've been having a comfortable time in the mid lane."

"Lord Naseed did everything. What about it?"

"Huh. What about the Bronze?"

"You'll be surprised when you see it yourself."

"Even if I see it, he's just the god of soccer... hmph."

I wonder if he was annoyed that someone pushed the tower before him.

Baron half-heartedly complained.

"Thank you for the 100GP, Mr. Im."

Masid showed no interest and was too busy giving thanks for the sponsorship.

When it was said that Sung JiHan was hunting the Viscount of Naseed, there was a lot of interest in this game.

With the inclusion of the American superstar Baron and Sophia in the party, viewers from not only Korea but also abroad were gathering.

Perhaps because so many people gathered, the usually empty Masid channel started to bustle due to the ripple effect.

Especially before the appearance of Battle.net, many people who liked soccer came and sponsored him.

-I used to like soccer.

-After Battle.net came out, I lost interest. But it was fun to watch the World Cup.

-Do you remember when we made it to the quarterfinals in 2002?

-Hey, why are you talking about old stories? LOL

[Kim Cheong-yong has sponsored 100GP.]

-Watching soccer brings back memories~ After watching the 2002 World Cup, I wanted to become a soccer player too... Masid, I'll send you a small sponsorship!

"Thank you for the sponsorship, Mr. Kim. I remember the 2002 World Cup even more because we were separated."

Watching Masid communicate in Korean when water came in.

Baron pointed at him with his chin.

"What's he doing?"

"He seems to be giving thanks for the sponsorship. He's been doing that since earlier."

"Ha. How much does he get?"

"Even for 100GP."

"100... unbelievable."

Baron smirked and showed no more interest in Masid.

To be so persistent for a 100GP sponsorship.

He judged that it wasn't worth dealing with.

"You're a bit late. Sorry."

"I'm sorry~ Hehe."

At that moment, Sung JiHan walked with Min Yoon-seo on the bot lane.

"You're so late. What were you doing?"

"While attacking the enemy base, I also leveled up my nephew a bit."

"What level did you reach?"

When Sophia asked with an interested face, Yoon-seo drew a V with her finger.

"It's level 15."

"...15!? Wasn't it 6 earlier?"

Baron was astonished.

No matter how much this is a Silver map, how did the level go up by 9?

He couldn't even estimate how many minions Sung JiHan had pushed.

"While everyone is struggling to level up, you're benefiting from having your uncle take care of you. Isn't it nice to ride the bus?"

While sneering at Yoon-seo for comfortably growing with the effects of two status windows, Baron replied.

"Yes. It's so nice. The bus is the best!"

But Yoon-seo responded with a bright smile.

"...sigh."

"Don't start unnecessary trouble, just get ready."

When the opponent acknowledged it and came out, Sung JiHan, who was usually speechless, said a word to Baran.

Underneath the hidden valley where the Viscount Nacide was hiding, he walked towards the purple water puddle.

"How do you plan to summon the Viscount Nacide?"

"Like this."

Sung JiHan took out the fragments of the 'Archangel's Sword' and the 'Reaper's Scythe' from his inventory and threw them into the water puddle.

Splash!

The fragments of the Archangel's Sword, which emitted a white light, and the fragments of the Reaper's Scythe, which were engulfed in crimson flames, quickly lost their light as soon as they fell into the purple puddle.

And soon.

Kaaaah!

A loud scream echoed from the puddle.

Crunch!

A giant mouth protruded from the puddle and swallowed the two fragments whole.

[Now that light and darkness have diminished...]

Smear...

From the center of the lake, a life form emerged.

A giant snake with translucent purple scales, four massive horns, and seven red eyes.

"The time of ascension has come!"

It was none other than the boss monster of the End of the Abyss, Viscount Nacide.

"Oh. It really came out...!"

Viscount Nacide, who revealed a presence so large that it reached from the puddle to the valley.

As he appeared, the sky was dyed purple.

On the surface of the cliffs surrounding the lake, grotesque and distorted characters began to be engraved.

"That's it."

Sung JiHan looked at those characters and his eyes sparkled.

The pattern of the Viscount's engraving on the cliff.

That was why a team was needed for the Viscount Nacide raid.

"While the pattern is activated, the Viscount Nacide's defense and regeneration are greatly enhanced."

Some of the team members attack the pattern to disrupt the enhanced effects on Viscount Nacide.

The remaining team members fight against Viscount Nacide.

This was the basic strategy for the Viscount Nacide raid.

So, two members focused on disrupting the pattern, while three members engaged in battle with Viscount Nacide, following the "2:3 strategy."

"Well then, let's go with the prearranged strategy."

Sung JiHan said, holding a sword and a spear.

"Are you really going with the strategy you mentioned earlier...?"

Sophia asked with a worried voice.

She had her reasons.

The strategy Sung JiHan mentioned before entering the game was not the 2:3 strategy.

"How do you plan to handle that alone?"

Because it was an extreme method of attacking the pattern on the cliff and fighting against Viscount Nacide alone.

At first, Sung JiHan had won against the Diamond, so he wondered if this strategy would be possible.

"He looks too strong..."

The actual Viscount Nacide they saw was of a different size.

How could he handle such a monster alone?

"Why? Have confidence. Show me what you've got!"

Baran crossed his arms and raised the corner of his mouth.

Although he joined this party to attack Viscount Nacide, he didn't cooperate until that bastard begged for help.

To make that happen, he had to taste the bitterness of failure at least once...

And the party members immediately understood his intentions.

"Ugh... It's annoying... So annoying."

Sophia only thought about it but didn't say it out loud.

"Of course, Baron. You're narrow-minded. Owner. Just ask for help. I'll help anytime."

Masidman openly insulted Baron.

Since receiving Araclne's orb and properly utilizing his soccer skills, he had been sending unwavering trust to Sung JiHan.

"It's okay. Just attack the patterns well. I'll take care of the rest."

"...I understand. Then, I'll give you my blessing."

Sophia, who sighed at Sung JiHan's words, bestowed various buffs.

Upon receiving her blessing, he felt his body instantly becoming lighter.

'Trinity. The effect is truly amazing.'

Sophia's gift is 'Trinity'.

The effect of this SS-grade gift was simple.

True to its name, it allowed for triple stacking of buffs.

'Sophia has become the world's strongest supporter with just this gift.'

Although it is an SS-grade, her blessing efficiency was unbelievably outstanding, allowing her to rank 3rd in the world rankings during the final 10-country period.

"Thank you. This should be enough."

"No, if you need healing, please let me know anytime!"

"I appreciate the thought, but there won't be a need for that."

Sung JiHan smirked confidently, holding the Shadow Sword Eclipse in his left hand and the Phoenix Spear in his right.

"You won't even land a single hit."

* * *

The hunt for Viscount Naseed went smoothly.

"Mortal! Do not resist!"

At first, Viscount Naseed shouted with confidence.

"This damn rat...!"

"You're good at avoiding damage!"

"Aaah!! Kuaaah!!"

Just as Sung JiHan assured, Viscount Naseed was only able to unleash his rage without landing a single hit.

During the 5-minute battle.

The purple translucent scales were covered in gold.

Among the 7 eyes, the red light had disappeared from 3 of them.

-Wow... It's an art of body movement...

-Sung JiHan is playing with Viscount Naseed lolololol

-The difference in skill level is real...

Even after a fierce 5-minute battle, Sung JiHan showed no signs of exhaustion.

He easily dodged most attacks.

For unavoidable strikes, he slowed them down with force and counterattacked.

Sung JiHan continuously showed his best moves.

As if watching a well-choreographed performance.

-Sung Sang!!! Come to Japan wwww The goddess is waiting for you~ (laughs)

-You have great synergy with AF. Mr. Sung. America always welcomes you :-)

Foreign viewers who came to watch the Silver Viscount Naseed hunt admired Sung JiHan's one-man show and flooded the chat with invitations to their own countries.

-Ah, foreign stuff is getting on the channel -_-

-It's gone global.

-But even if they flood the chat, Sung JiHan won't see it anyway, right?

-Thankfully, sponsorship starts at 10 million won kekekekeke

-Shh! We might get another GatesUp...

Korean viewers were annoyed by the automatically translated foreign chat.

However, they didn't show as sensitive of a reaction as before, perhaps because they thought Sung JiHan would have left if he didn't want to go.

-But his attacks seem to hit well, yet Viscount Naseed is holding on for a long time.

-Is his damage lacking?

-Originally, three players would deal damage as a party. It seems tough to take him down alone.

- Yeah, generally speaking, mages or archers have stronger damage than warriors.

The battle was completely one-sided.

[Kaaaah!]

Count Naseed spewed out giant thorns from his scales and breathed fire from his mouth.

Thud. Thud.

Sung JiHan, on the other hand, used those thorns as stepping stones and approached Count Naseed.

The shadow sword Eclipse momentarily grew in size.

Swoosh!

Once again, it struck the scales of the giant snake.

"Ha..."

Baron watched from a distance and clicked his tongue.

That guy fights too well.

Even when facing a colossal monster, how can a person be like that?

Shouldn't they at least take a hit in a humane way?

"The damage is insufficient."

"Really? But I think I can catch him soon. It usually takes more than 10 minutes to hunt Count Naseed for the first time."

"No. It's not enough."

Baron dismissed Sophia's words and rolled his eyes.

In fact, he knew.

That the damage didn't seem to be lacking.

In this battle, Sung JiHan hadn't used any of the special techniques he had used so far.

He only inflicted damage on the scales with his sword.

But.

"If he defeats Count Naseed alone here, I'll just be a sidekick."

In front of viewers from all over the world.

The shining protagonist is only Sung JiHan.

Baron is just at the level of "Sung JiHan's party member 1".

In that case, doesn't it mean that there's no point in participating in the raid party?

"Alright... I'll take the final blow!"

Among the patterns engraved on the cliffs in the four cardinal directions.

The southern pattern was assigned to Masid, the closest western pattern was assigned to Yoon Se-ah and Sophia.

Baron covered the patterns on the far east and north cliffs.

"If we attack the north and east patterns weakly, we can prevent them from activating."

While taking care of the north and east cliffs, Baron also tried to deal damage to Count Naseed.

"Sophia, give me a buff."

"Why? We have enough right now."

"It's annoying to keep doing weak attacks. I should just use Fire Wave more powerfully."

"Well... if that's the case."

When Sophia stacked the buffs, Baron's tail raised high.

Alright. This should do it!

"Fire Wave!"

Whoosh!

The cliffs in the east and north were completely engulfed in flames.

And the massive wave of fire didn't stop there.

It started moving towards Count Naseed.

"Baron, Baron! What are you doing?"

"Our damage is lacking! We need to finish quickly!"

Confidently responding to Sophia's words, Baron.

He couldn't hide the smile on his face at the thought of landing the final blow.

And.

"Ha... He can't even last 5 minutes with that."

Sung JiHan looked at the Fire Wave and clicked his tongue as if he found it pathetic.
