The human representatives, selected from the top 1st to the 3,000th in the world rankings, harbored strong pride in their abilities. While they respected and highly regarded Seong Jihans skills, they were reluctant to simply sit idly within the The Myriad Ghost Sealing Gods and do nothing

Despite not being the main stars in the Space League, most desired to play a significant role rather than being mere extras. However, the disparity in strength between their own species and the Dragon race was overwhelming.

II dont remember it being like this during the rehearsal!

As the Absolute Shield dissolved in an instant, Barren bit his lip, watching in shock. The dragons during the rehearsal game were indeed strong, but not to this extent. Barren had believed he had grown significantly himself and could contend adequately. He never anticipated being swept away by flames in one fell swoop.

Meanwhile, amidst the torrents of Fire Breath, Seong Jihan stood unscathed and even chuckled upon hearing Barrens remarks.

Did you intend to fight thinking it was still a rehearsal? Last time, the Dragon Race was also made up of Platinum-ranked dragons. Just like you have grown stronger, so have they.

But, still I didnt expect such a huge gap

You should always expect the worst.

As the barrier vanished completely, Barren was engulfed in flames, looking at Seong-Jihan with a dismayed gaze. Despite the world being a sea of fire, he stood untouched, feeling like he was in a different world altogether.

How are you unharmed?

I have my ways.

Swoosh

A purple light flickered across Seong Jihans entire body.

The fire breath seemed to halt in its tracks, unable to infiltrate the space where he stood.

He had learned the Crimson Divinity technique from Dongbang Sak.

This martial art, which dealt with the void, proved to be quite useful.

Though he had not mastered the technique completely, having only learned it recently,

Crimson Divinitys purple aura seems to act like a barrier itself.

The untamed force swirling around Seong Jihan perfectly blocked the fire breath.

Perhaps if he had spread Crimson Divinity more broadly, he might have been able to save more people from being burned by the fire breath.

But for players who do not possess the void, covering them in Crimson Divinity might lead to them being devoured instead.

For the average player, this purple energy could potentially be fatal.

Seong Jihan looked at Crimson Divinity for a moment, then said to Barren, who was sinking into flames,

Sorry. Im still not good enough at controlling this power to use it on others. This is the limit for me.

Theres nothing for you to apologize for. Its me who wanted to fight!

Did you? Actually, Im not sorry at all. Next time, listen quietly.

Cough!

With a bitter smile, Barren disappeared, triggering the disappearance of all the players summoned alongside Seong Jihan. The representatives of humanity vanished without seeing the dragons form, succumbing to the Fire Breath bombardment from afar.

=The human side, trapped in Fire Breath, has been wiped out in an instant!

=Only 500 have perished so far. Oh, my mistake, its 499! Seong Jihan is still alive!

=As expected of Seong Jihan! He truly withstood that powerful Fire Breath!

=But seriously, if they were going to perish so quickly, why not just obediently enter the sword formation What is Barren even trying to do? 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸𝘦𝒷𝑛𝘰𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝘰𝘮

=Chris, your mic is on!

=Ah, ahem. Sorry about that! Emotions got the best of me for a moment!

In a series of events, the commentator, Christopher, expressed irritation, and it was broadcasted live.

-The American commentator criticizing American prospects, lol.

-Well, its justified. Barren was boasting about his pride as soon as he joined the human representative team but got cut in 10 seconds.

-Christophers commentary was definitely intentional, lol.

-Seriously, hes already loaded with supporting gifts, lol.

-But still, they cant just keep riding on Seong Jihans coattails forever. They have to make the players fight somehow

-If the human ranking drops, will you take responsibility?

-He needs a dungeon in his house to get his act together, lol.

The consensus on the representatives was at rock-bottom, as they were easily obliterated by the fire breath.

And then,

=Human representative team. Its okay. If we strategize around Seong Jihan, we can still win! Only 499 have fallen so far Oh, the number of casualties is rising rapidly!

=Breaths are pouring out from all over the battlefield!

=But where on earth are the dragons? Are they up high in the sky? We cant see them!

The overall situation was overwhelmingly against humanity.

Indeed, this map is tough.

Seong Jihan looked up at the sky.

The place swept by breath no longer had flames raining down.

But far off where the human forces were presumed to be, fire breath continued to pour down.

Given the near-simultaneous attack, it seems like 10 dragons were summoned in a similar region. Even if I had used Myriad Ghost Sealing Gods, saving 1000 would not have been easy.

Had he confined the 500 people from Seong Jihans region with Myriad Ghost Sealing Gods, the game would have ended before they could have moved to another location.

Seong Jihan decided to at least appreciate making the representative team face the harsh reality for the first match, as he gazed at the sky.

But I should at least take down one dragon.

Swoosh!

Seong Jihan leapt toward the sky to locate the unseen dragon.

As he maneuvered beyond the clouds,

[Over 80 percent of the human players have been eliminated.]

[The game is going to end soon.]

Quickly, the message that the game was coming to an end appeared.

Already?

It was indeed potent, the breath, but this was excessively harsh.

As he decided he might as well search for a dragon before logging out, Seong Jihan maximized his lightness skill.

And soon,

he discovered a massive life form high above in the sky.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Crossing clouds, he saw a red dragon with a tremendous presence in the distance.

As he appeared quietly flapping its wings,

The dragon, which had been resting with closed eyes, noticed Seong Jihans arrival and slowly opened its eyelids.

The dragon gazed at him, a sense of calm in its eyes.

=Ah, is that the dragon?

=Its huge

=The dragons from the rehearsal game must have been just babies.

The red dragon, gigantic enough that it couldnt even be compared to the hatchling witnessed during the rehearsal, instilled primal fear in the onlookers.

Shall I try slicing it up.

Seong Jihan wasnt deterred and was filled with the intent to attack.

Swoosh

His left arm manifested the shadow sword Eclipse, and his entire body, which had been radiating purple energy, drew it into the sword.

Since weve lost the first match already. Theres no need to go all out Just a light jab will do.

Being too strong might make him a focal point for the opponents concentrated countermeasures.

Consequently, considering future matches, Seong Jihan lightly drew a horizontal line with his sword.

Fundamental Divine Art, Triad of Martial Mastery -Total Annihilation Horizontal Sweep

Then,

Zishsh!

The barrier in front of the dragons head formed countless times and split apart instantly.

The sword, which sliced through everything, reached the dragons forehead.

Psshh Psshh

From the cut, dragon blood spewed in all directions.

Touching the atmosphere, it boiled instantaneously and became smoke that disappeared.

Adding Crimson Divinity makes it stronger than I thought

Seong Jihans light jab, meant to merely scratch, made a deep gash on the dragon.

[The game is ending.]

[The player is logging out.]

Flash!

As he landed a hit and logged out, the red dragon looked at the spot where Seong Jihan disappeared in silence.

[While unremarkable, there is something peculiar about you]

A fleeting spark ignited in the indifferent eyes of the dragon,

[And theres the Void. Perhaps ]

* * *

=We lost the first match. The game ended in an instant

=The dragon. Truly a formidable presence worthy of second place in the league!

The first match ended in defeat.

This game instilled a strong sense of helplessness in humanity.

-Well, is it over just from getting hit by breath attacks in the sky?

-Even if we increase the ratio from 50:1 to 500:1, we would still lose, right?

-We played the ban cards well, and Seong Jihan survived, but to lose so one-sidedly is there any hope for this series?

The match ultimately ended with dragons reigning their breaths from the sky.

Although Seong Jihan survived and managed to injure the Dragon Race, by then the game had already ended.

Such a dramatic disparity in racial capabilities couldnt be mitigated just by improving the numbers.

Too strong This is just too strong.

Coach Davis entered the coaching room with a significantly darker expression than before.

The Dragon Race.

While they were expected to be strong, no one anticipated such a crushing defeat despite favorable ban cards.

How were they supposed to fight such creatures?

For now, we must focus on Seong Jihan.

In the previous game, unlike the others, Seong Jihan had easily withstood the breath.

If they didnt strategize around him, victory for humanity seemed impossible.

We cant always rely on this situation

Being dependent on a single ace player, Seong Jihan, wasnt a strategy Coach Davis favored.

However, humanity urgently needed a victory right now.

Having decided to select the warrior map Valhalla for all remaining matches,

Coach Davis walked through the clouds within the coachs room.

Well go with the same cards as before.

He set the ban and select cards the same as the first match, then,

[You, the insignificant one.]

Once the opposing side initiated contact without uttering a word in the first match,

Coach Davis, startled, stumbled again.

-Why is the coach falling down so much today?

-Seems like he got scared because the dragon spoke suddenly.

-Did he not know it could talk?

-To call him trivial after seeing the first match, its sad that we cant refute.

What, what is it?

Davis scrambled to his feet, replying hastily to the dragon.

He tried to exude confidence, but his voice betrayed a tremor.

The dragon gazed down at him and spoke once more.

[Summon your true representative. I wish to have a conversation with him.]

Our true representative?

[The one who inflicted pain upon us. He is a mutation born from an insignificant race.]

Was it referring to Seong Jihan?

Coach Davis frowned, not understanding the dragons intentions.

Seong Jihan is our core player If he comes here, hell likely get pinned down by the enemy. We dont need to listen to their stories.

Davis was ready to decline the conversation with the dragon right away, but then,

[If you summon him, I will let you win the second match.]

What what

[Is one match not enough? Then Ill give you the third match as well.]

Lose the second match?

Coach Daviss pupils trembled.

How, how can we believe that?

[I promise in the name of the dragon. Witnessed by the system.]

Well thats

Just by changing the coach, would they give up the second match?

Davis swallowed hard.

The Dragon Race.

They were an adversary humanity faced difficulty defeating in the first match.

Yet they were willing to give up two matches merely for a conversation with Seong Jihan

W-Well take the authentication first.

Coach Davis couldnt easily believe such favorable conditions, so he requested authentication from BattleNet first.

[Agreed.]

The dragons coach accepted the proposal immediately and proceeded swiftly.

=What on earth is happening?

=Why is the dragon suddenly interested in Seong Jihan?

As the situation took a strange turn, the commentators and viewers, all unable to understand the situation, had no choice but to proceed after BattleNets authentication was completed

Seong Jihan. I will need to ask you a favor.

Understood. If theyll give us two wins, lets have a look.

Seong Jihan thus replaced Coach Davis in the coaching room, and

And so, instead of Coach Davis, Seong Jihan stepped into the coaching room.

Flash!

[Better than expected.]

The dragon looked at Seong Jihan with glowing eyes.

[What do you say? Will you join our clan?]

Um? fre ewebno vel.com

The dragon made a sudden scout offer to Seong Jihan.
