Chapter 548

"Ha, who's going to save whom?"

Yoon Seah twisted her lips upon hearing the governor's words.

"Have you forgotten? It was you who removed all memory of my uncle. And now you're asking for cooperation?"

The World Tree Alliance, which had erased the Blue Administrator's records and colonized Earth.

For them to talk about saving Seong Jihan. freeweɓnøvel.com

It was natural for Yoon Seah to be dumbfounded.

"Coming back after so long, was it a male half-elf? He was doing strange things... Ultimately, you set up this charade to take my uncle's abilities; how shameless."

"We regret that. But thanks to us safeguarding the Administrator's abilities, wasn't this anomaly with the Red Administrator revealed?"

Tap. Tap.

As she said this, Governor Mia touched the screen.

The video then rewound to the earlier scene where the blue sword's energy targeted the Red Administrator.

"Without the blue swords, we would still be speculating about why the Red Administrator was moving in human form. Thanks to this revelation, we now have a chance to save the Blue Administrator."

"......"

"If he returns, we will reverse the memory removal."

"Is... that true?"

"Yes. If the Blue Administrator returns fully, that is."

The colonial governor, attaching the condition of 'fully', said they would reverse what they had done to Seong Jihan.

As Yoon Seah blinked her eyes in confusion at those words,

Seong Jihan sent her a mental message.

'You're not actually believing that, are you? Just play along with them.'

Given how much effort the World Tree Alliance had put into this, they wouldn't give up just because Seong Jihan returned.

Instead, they would surely try to subdue him, too, by any means necessary.

The Administrator's authority was that valuable an ability.

Yoon Seah nodded slightly and opened her mouth.

"...What kind of cooperation are you looking for from me? I'll tell you in advance, the Void won't intervene in this matter."

"That's fine. We're looking for not the Void's intervention, but the cooperation of Arena owner."

Tap. Tap.

As Mia touched the screen a few times,

Zing...

The Hall of Swords, with countless blue swords embedded in it, appeared.

"We compress the 'Blue' stat into sword form like this. We'd like you, Ms. Yoon Seah, to imbue one of these swords with Void."

"Imbue a sword with Void? Why on earth..."

"The swords used by the Blue Administrator always contained Void. We want to test if the blue swords we're creating become stronger when stimulated by Void."

"I see."

"And when preparations are complete... we'd like you to join us in the subjugation of the Red Administrator."

"...Are you asking me to fight the Red Administrator?"

As Yoon Seah frowned, Governor Mia quickly waved her hands.

"No, no. Yggdrasil will handle all the combat. We just need the Arena owner to show herself in the rear."

"Just show myself?"

"Yes. From our records, the Blue Administrator cared a great deal about you, Ms. Yoon Seah. If you appear in person, it might cause a reaction from the other side."

Seong Jihan was taken over by the Red Administrator.

So they wanted to send Yoon Seah to the battlefield to wake him up?

They were really trying everything.

Seong Jihan sent a mental message to Yoon Seah.

'Refuse this.'

Imbuing the blue sword with Void was fine, but this was different.

There was a chance Yoon Seah could get hurt if something went wrong.

It was better not to create dangerous situations.

"...I don't know. This won't work. Why should I trust you and participate in combat?"

"Is that so..."

"Yes. Instead, let's try imbuing the blue sword with Void."

"I understand. Ah... but what do you think about this method?"

Tap. Tap.

Governor Mia switched the screen.

There,

The existing elf face and Yoon Seah's face appeared side by side.

"We'll change the existing elf face to yours, Ms. Yoon Seah."

"...What did you say?"

"Of course, we won't change all elves. We'll prioritize changing the appearance of the high elf corps wielding blue swords. This way, even if you don't directly participate in combat, it might cause a reaction from the other side, don't you think?"

"No... Wait. What...!"

While Yoon Seah was bewildered by this proposal,

"Arena owner. Don't you want to confirm whether the Blue Administrator can be saved or not?"

Governor Mia was serious.

"......"

"Borrowing your face will only be for a few hundred high elves at most. Since you said coming in person is too much, we need to confirm the other side's reaction through this method. The Blue Administrator... wasn't he very precious to you?"

The governor, mentioned the Blue Administrator while asking to borrow her face if she wouldn't come directly.

'If she doesn't accept the proposal here, they might find it strange.'

Yoon Seah had spent years searching for Seong Jihan in Washington.

If she acted passively here, the other party might become suspicious.

Yoon Seah bit her lip and slowly nodded.

"...Alright. We need to check if the body the Red Administrator is using reacts... after all."

"Thank you for your permission."

"But. When they deploy, let me see the scene too."

"Of course. We'll share information in real-time now that we're in a cooperative relationship."

The governor smiled and said,

"Then... when would be a good time for imbuing the blue sword with Void?"

"That can be done right now if you want."

"That's great. Then... I'll immediately contact the blue sword side for Void injection."

They immediately connected communications for blue sword creation.

Zing...

On the switched screen,

'...It's me?'

Kim Jihun appeared, watching TV with a blank expression.

"TV again... Doesn't he ever get tired of it?"

As Governor Mia clicked her tongue at Kim Jihun,

"Who is that?"

Yoon Seah asked her while looking at the screen.

"This is the blue sword that the Arena owner will inject Void into now. Although he looks incredibly lazy, his talent as a sword is considerable."

"Is that so? What kind of talent does he have?"

"Among the many blue swords, he's the only one with the talent to grow."

After informing Yoon Seah about the usefulness of the blue sword 'Kim Jihun',

Mia looked at the screen and gave instructions.

"Number 17. Put the blue sword to sleep. We need to summon the target to the Hall of Swords immediately."

[Understood.]

'I should head back for now.'

Seong Jihan sent a mental message to Yoon Seah, saying he would see her later, then quickly returned to Kim Jihun's body.

When he entered,

"Mr. Kim Jihun, Mr. Kim Jihun."

The expressionless elf escort was calling his name in front of him.

"Uh. Um... Why did you call me?"

"Instructions have come down from the Conional Government. They say you need to go to the Hall of Swords right now."

"Go to the Hall of Swords... Don't I need to sleep to go there?"

"Yes. So I'll use sleep magic right now."

After informing Kim Jihun like this, the elf escort,

"Sleep."

Immediately used magic.

Then, Kim Jihun's eyes started closing right away.

Swish...

As his consciousness faded,

Before he knew it, Kim Jihun had transformed into a blue sword, embedded in the center of the Hall of Swords.

'Well... I didn't expect to become Seah's sword.'

The World Tree Alliance wanted to test this because Void always existed in Seong Jihan's swords.

It seemed they were impressed by the Taiji Sword that Seong Jihan used in the past.

However,

'Actually, injecting Void here would be more of a minus.'

The Taiji Sword and blue swords had different underlying principles.

Injecting Void here could cause side effects as the two energies clashed.

'But it would be a shame if it just ended with "Void is useless"...'

Yoon Seah had formed a temporary alliance with the World Tree Alliance.

She agreed to receive information in exchange for lending her face.

But that alone wasn't enough.

To form a deeper cooperative relationship with the World Tree Alliance,

There was a need to demonstrate the usefulness of Void here today.

'Well then, shall we try a little collusion...'

As Seong Jihan thought this, about 30 minutes passed while waiting for Yoon Seah's group.

Whoosh...!

Yoon Seah and Governor Mia warped to the center of the Hall of Swords.

"...There are so many swords. Which one is the growing sword?"

"It's this one, but wouldn't it be better to test on other swords before injecting Void?"

The World Tree Alliance side, predicting that injecting Void could be dangerous,

Handed Yoon Seah a test sword first.

'A sword with terribly low compatibility.'

That sword.

Maybe 5% compatibility?

It should be on the outermost edge of the Hall of Swords.

Given its poor performance, it felt like it wouldn't be much of a loss if it broke.

"Well then..."

As Yoon Seah injected a bit of Void into it,

Swoosh...

The blue light emitted by the sword became even weaker.

A light that looked like it might go out at any moment.

Yoon Seah frowned as she saw this.

"Um... this sword got weaker, didn't it?"

"Could we... test a few more times? Please inject the minimum amount of Void."

"I already put in very little... but alright."

The test was conducted on 10 blue swords like this, but

The test results all ended with weakened light.

"Hmm..."

Governor Mia wore a serious expression seeing this.

Based on the test results so far, all Void injections had failed.

Even if these swords could be discarded,

'Kim Jihun's blue sword needs to be safe...'

The growing blue sword absolutely must not be damaged.

It would be a big problem if experimenting with Void injection harmed the sword's growth potential.

"It seems the Void injection has failed..."

Governor Mia said this, trailing off at the end, but

"Isn't it because the test swords were too weak? I think the growing sword will be different."

"Still, with all the results being like this..."

"I think that sword will be different."

Now Yoon Seah was taking a more proactive stance.

"Don't worry too much. I'll only put in a tiny bit."

"That..."

Step. Step.

Before the governor could answer, Yoon Seah approached Kim Jihun's blue sword and,

Swish...

Injected a small amount of Void into it.

Then, a message appeared before Seong Jihan's eyes.

[Stat 'Void' increases by 2.]

Even though she said she would only put in a little,

Yoon Seah's Void was so precise that the stat increased by 2.

No wonder the other swords weakened like that.

'Well, I just need to move like this.'

Swish...

Following Seong Jihan's guidance, the Void swirled into the center of the blue sword.

Unlike the other blue swords, Kim Jihun's sword took on a form where the Blue stat and Void coexisted.

Then,

Whoosh...!

As purple smoke emerged from the sword,

The blue sword's light intensified.

"No, this is...!"

As the governor's eyes widened seeing this, Yoon Seah shrugged her shoulders.

"See? I told you this sword would be different."

"...It's exactly as you said. Compatibility... I'll check it right away!"

"Ah. Yes. Here you go."

The governor received the sword with an excited face.

Things were going too well.
