The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2-Chapter 581

Chapter 581

At the Half-Elf Center in New York.

As soon as Seong Jihan opened a portal and arrived there.

"Oh, Mr. Seong Jihan!"

The President of the United States came out to greet him personally.

"I'm so glad you're back. Humanity has been saved thanks to you, Mr. Seong Jihan...!"

The US President spoke fluent Korean, probably using some kind of translation item.

Seong Jihan ignored the President's praise, looking around instead.

'All 6,515 of them are here.'

Male half-elves were lined up in rows below the platform.

And behind them.

Female half-elves were gathered.

Even though the Half-Elf Center was large, it seemed insufficient to accommodate all of them.

The line stretched out even to the outside.

'I wonder if the President's daughter is among them.'

The female half-elf wasn't visible among the President's entourage.

It seemed they decided to have her blend in with the others rather than bringing her out openly.

Was it because of leading the approval for the record erasure type?

'Well, at least he's separating public and private matters.'

Seong Jihan raised his hand to the President, who kept praising him.

"That's enough pleasantries. Let's get to business."

"Ah, understood!"

"And I'll deal with the men first, then take a look at the women."

"Ah... Thank you!"

The President's face brightened at the mention of looking at the female half-elves too.

Below the platform.

Towards the male half-elves looking at him with tense expressions,

Seong Jihan lightly extended his hand.

Then.

Swish swish swish...

Blue energy emerged from the 6,000 or so male half-elves.

It was all absorbed into Seong Jihan at once.

[Stat 'Blue' increases by 66.]

'I guess some people had a bit more than 0.01.'

He expected it to increase by 65, but Blue increased by 1 more.

Seong Jihan, whose Blue jumped from 100 to 166,

Was clearly feeling the effect of the ability increase more than before.

The efficiency had increased 5-fold compared to when he was SS-rank.

The ability that just rose from these half-elves with one gesture was equivalent to 330 by the old standards.

'At this rate, I'll be approaching my former power.'

When the blue vessel was SSS-rank, the Blue stat had reached 2549.

Applying that to the current Blue would be 510 if divided by 5.

Since there were about 20,000 male half-elves, reaching 300 shouldn't be a problem.

'What comes after that is the issue though...'

He'd need to raise it by 200 more to reach his previous level.

The question was how to fill that gap.

As Seong Jihan was thinking about the next step while observing his increased ability,

"Oh..."

"I, I'm back."

"I got my body back...!"

"But my level is the same as when I was a half-elf."

"I should have worked harder back then..."

The 6,000 or so Americans who returned to being human.

Some took out mirrors to look at themselves.

Some opened their status windows to check their levels.

They were all amazed to confirm that their bodies had completely returned.

"But as expected of Seong Jihan. He returned everyone with just one gesture..."

"He even reversed time for the whole world, so isn't this much obvious?"

"I want to get his autograph, but that's impossible, right?"

"Can't you see the women waiting in the back? We need to clear out quickly."

"If only we hadn't had to hand in our phones, I could have taken a picture..."

The men who were looking at Seong Jihan with admiring eyes,

[Please exit through Gate 3 as soon as you've finished checking your status.]

When the announcement came from the center, they moved their feet, reluctant to leave.

And the female half-elves quickly began filling the empty spaces the men left.

'There are definitely more women than men.'

Originally, the probability was higher, and unlike the male half-elves who became human when their Blue stat was completely absorbed, they had never been humanized before.

The number of female half-elves was much higher than males.

"How many female half-elves are there?"

"There are a total of 100,000 in the United States, but 30,000 have gathered today."

"30,000, huh."

Even 30,000 looked like a lot, but originally there were 200,000?

'The number must be enormous if we consider the whole world.'

Seong Jihan looked closely at the female half-elves.

'This, it's going to be difficult to return them to humans with just one gesture like the men...'

Rather than absorbing their abilities, it seemed he'd need to use Blue on them actively.

"Well. I'll need to test this on one person first. Is there any volunteer?"

As Seong Jihan looked around below the platform and asked,

A female half-elf standing at the very front raised her hand.

"Ra, Rachel..."

The US President stammered from behind, seeing the volunteer.

Judging by his reaction, was that his daughter?

They all looked the same, but he must have recognized her by her clothes.

"Come up."

As Seong Jihan gestured, she quickly came up onto the stage.

[Female half-elves have a fundamentally different composition from males. It seems we'll need to incinerate everything except the brain and reconstruct a human body.]

'Isn't that too extreme?'

[Don't worry. This process won't require much power. If you can't find a solution, I recommend this method. And absolutely don't think about using up your Blue stat to return female half-elves to humans.]

'Of course.'

He didn't know when Urd might attack again.

There was no need to use his stats to turn female half-elves into humans.

"Hmm. Seeing everyone gathered like this reminds me of the Elf Legion..."

"Even yesterday, the scene of my death was replayed in my dreams. Seeing the female half-elves, I feel like it might happen again today."

"Indeed, even if there's no hatred at first, it seems like it might develop."

From behind, the congressmen who came with the President were whispering such things, but.

'Still, preserving Blue is the top priority.'

If he actively used Blue on female half-elves,

And then couldn't stop Urd because he wasted our stats, that would be an even bigger disaster for humanity.

Thinking this, Seong Jihan examined the President's daughter and.

[Translator - Asura]

[Proofreader - Gun]

'There's a very faint life force.'

He discovered a characteristic unique to female half-elves.

The life force that forms the basis of elven regeneration.

Female half-elves had a very tiny amount of it.

And.

'Blue is... combined with this in a dust-sized amount?'

For normal humans.

All the Blue had been sucked away in the Hall of Swords, leaving nothing behind.

But for female half-elves, Blue was attached to the life force in an amount about the size of dust.

In terms of Blue stat value, it was about one ten-thousandth.

'Still, many a little makes a mickle.'

Seong Jihan's eyes flashed.

At this time when recovering the Blue stat was urgent.

0.00001 - this.

No matter how many more zeros were added here, he had to collect all of this.

'Since it's combined with life force... I'll have to use that martial art.'

Swish...

Red chains sprouted from Seong Jihan's back.

Infinite Annihilation God

Annihilation God's Secret

Heavenly Tree Descending Spirit

As it touched Rachel's body.

Crack...

Her body began to split all at once.

"Ra, Rachel!!!"

When the President saw this and opened his eyes wide in surprise.

'If I separate the combination with Blue, and use the life force to recover the original body...'

Swish...

Within the Heavenly Tree Descending Spirit, the two combined forces separated,

And Rachel's body, which seemed about to collapse, regenerated into a new form.

Into the shape of a plump white woman.

"Oh. Oh...! Thank you. Thank you!"

The US President was moved to see this, but.

"Ah..."

"So we really do return completely to our former appearance..."

"Even the body is exactly the same?"

Below the platform, seeing Rachel's transformation back to her original self,

Considerable disappointment was evident.

From the perfect beauty of elven appearance,

They were returning to their former imperfect selves.

[Hmm. Humans... Do they dislike returning to their former appearance? Then how about incinerating everything except the brain? We could create the appearance they desire.]

That guy really liked burning things.

'Forget it, I need to collect Blue.'

Seong Jihan immediately rejected the Red Administrator's suggestion and said,

"Now that it's successful, I'll apply this to everyone."

Whoosh...!

He spread Heavenly Tree Descending Spirit in all directions.

Then, people started rapidly changing from elves back to humans.

As Seong Jihan finished the 'humanization' process by spreading Heavenly Tree Descending Spirit to 30,000 people,

[Stat 'Blue' increases by 3.]

Blue stat increased by 3, and

[Level increases by 1.]

His level went up.

* * *

[Miracle at Half-Elf Center. Even female half-elves become human!]

[Seong Jihan orders gathering of not just male but also female half-elves]

[Don't want to return to being human? Half-elves who chose to disappear rather than comply with the summons]

The mass humanization of half-elves in America.

Seeing that they really did return perfectly to their human appearance,

Some people started to regret giving up their elven bodies.

After all, they had to return their near-perfect bodies to their former selves.

Naturally, some felt disappointed.

-When humanized, you really do return exactly to your former appearance... Even the fat is the same

-Is that why they're refusing the summons?;

-Just do what you're told. lol

-Elves are pretty though...

-No matter how pretty, after dying like that last time, still can't let go of being an elf... Are they really crazy????

-Even among male half-elves, there were a few trying to create some kind of religion ?? Saying Seong Jihan is the one true god and they're his agents.

-Shouldn't they obey the summons if he's the one true god? lolol

-Looks like we might need to start some 'benevolent' discrimination...

Most people reacted by saying please just listen, but after the miracle in America, the half-elf gathering was actually facing some difficulties.

Meanwhile.

Having returned to Korea for now, Seong Jihan was examining his status window.

'Leveling up... I hadn't really bothered with it until now.'

After the Red Administrator modified the status window, Seong Jihan could control his level-ups freely.

Previously, the Red Administrator had warned against leveling up, saying it would expand Hell, but,

'Now it shouldn't matter if I level up, right?'

[That's right. As your abilities have developed, the Blue and Red seal has actually become more solid. Even if Hell expands, it shouldn't be a big problem.]

Having reached SSS-rank, Blue had qualitatively strengthened the Blue and Red seal.

'I should see if I can raise Blue with the residual points.'

Thinking this, Seong Jihan looked at his level status.

Level: 2 (Can level up to 101)

Perhaps because he had become an administrator, his level which barely increased by 1 even after burning the World Tree,

But perhaps due to subduing Yggdrasil, the level he could now reach had hit three digits.

'This wouldn't have happened if not for Urd.'

Because she insisted on Yggdrasil taking that hit, curious about the Hell's fire.

If not for that, the credit for subduing Yggdrasil would have gone to Urd.

Feeling grateful to her for letting him deliver the final blow,

Seong Jihan raised his level straight to 101.

Then the Red Administrator immediately said,

[How high did you raise your level? The Hell is expanding too quickly...]

'101.'

[...Couldn't you have raised it more slowly? This growth is too rapid even if the Blue and Red seal is solid.]

'Wait. I can raise Blue with the residual points too.'

If he raised Blue by +99 as well, the seal should quickly stabilize.

As Seong Jihan responded nonchalantly,

The Red Administrator cautiously said,

[About that... Could you perhaps save some of the residual points?]

'Why?'

New novel chapters are published on freewёbn૦νeɭ.com.

[We might need to invest points in the White Light stat.]

'Ah. White Light.'

The White Light that the Red Administrator had insisted on obtaining in exchange for helping with Hell seal.

Until now, things had been too urgent to pay attention to that, but

'Hmm... Since you brought it up, should we try getting it?'

Now that things had calmed down a bit,

It seemed like a good time to raise this stat.

[That's a good idea. Blue Administrator.]

'But why are you so eager to get that?'

[That's...]

'I should hear the reason before getting White Light.'

To Seong Jihan's question,

[...It's not certain yet, but do you still want to hear it?]

'Yeah.'

The Red Administrator slowly began to speak.

[White Light... I think it might be the key to freeing me from being a puppet.]
