Chapter 584

[The Black Administrator proposes a compromise to assign NO.4212 to the Gold League for their new league assignment.]

The compromise proposed by Black.

It was a motion to assign humanity to the Gold League.

"Gold... That's still too much. Many human players have had their levels reset now."

[The Black Administrator says this assignment takes that into account as well.]

Ziiing...

Then, a power evaluation report for humanity appeared before Seong Jihan's eyes.

He quickly skimmed it over.

[NO.4212 - Humanity]

Current ability - Lowest grade based on current league

Performance in BattleNet - No data

Growth potential - Low grade

Overall evaluation score - F

Key player: Yoon Seah

Note - Administrator's jurisdiction race. The above evaluation can be overturned at any time depending on the administrator's intervention.

Considering the administrator, all above evaluations should be raised by at least three levels.

'It analyzes that human players' skills themselves are at the bottom of Silver...'

Seeing Yoon Seah listed as humanity's key player,

The report was evaluating humanity's level as bottom Silver even including Yoon Seah.

But were they assigning them to Gold League because of the note section's content?

[The Black Administrator says if you promise not to intervene with humanity at all, they can be assigned to Bronze League.]

"No intervention..."

Seong Jihan glanced at Urd after seeing that message.

"If I accept that proposal, what about that woman?"

"Oh my. If humanity is newly assigned to a league, even I can't openly attack them due to my administrator status. Since they're escaping colonial status and getting newly assigned, they'll receive benefits as newcomers in the league."

"But even if you can't do it openly, indirect methods are still possible, right?"

Urd just smiled leisurely at those words.

Seeing that, Seong Jihan realized choosing non-intervention would be very risky.

'Gold...'

He wanted to pull humanity out of BattleNet entirely if he could.

But looking at how things were going, that seemed impossible.

'And right now, getting assigned to a league and receiving newcomer benefits might be safer than leaving.'

BattleNet had minimum safety measures for newcomers.

Of course, Urd would find ways around these regulations to check them, but there would still be some limits.

But if humanity withdrew from BattleNet.

They might regain temporary freedom, but Urd, obsessed with the Blue stat, might find humanity and use them as hostages.

'It's better to stay here until I deal with Urd.'

Seong Jihan made that judgment and accepted the Black Administrator's compromise.

When he cast his vote in favor,

"Well, there's no point in me opposing now."

Urd smiled and also voted in favor of this proposal.

[The motion to assign NO.4212 to a league has passed with 3 votes in favor, 0 opposed.]

And so humanity was assigned to the Gold League.

"Now that you've become an official administrator like this, further motion submissions won't do much good. If the earlier ones had passed, this would have ended easily. What a shame."

"You mean those three ridiculous motions?"

"Yes. How peaceful were they? Only you had to be sacrificed."

"I think you sacrificing yourself would be more peaceful for this BattleNet."

"Oh my."

At Seong Jihan's words, Urd blinked.

"Living for so long, I get to hear such things too. How interesting. But you... Even with White Light, you seem unaffected?"

As she said this, her eyes flashed pure white.

Seong Jihan looked at her with a bored expression.

"Not particularly?"

"Is it because White Light hasn't settled in yet?"

Urd looked at Seong Jihan with meaningful eyes, then.

Tick. Tock...

She began summoning a clock of light behind her back.

"That again?"

She tried to manipulate time here.

Seong Jihan was about to recreate his Golden Wheel to counter, but.

"Don't worry. This time it's purely out of 'goodwill'."

Urd smiled as she turned the clock hands forward.

Then,

[Stat 'White Light' increases by 1.]

The message that appeared when entering the conference room earlier.

It popped up more than 10 times.

'Did she fast forward the time in the conference room?'

When White Light stat reached 15 due to Urd,

The growth messages stopped appearing.

"The light here won't go in anymore."

Urd seemed to sense this too, as she unsummoned the clock and.

Looking at Seong Jihan, she asked again.

"How do you feel about me now?"

"How? Exactly the same as before?"

"Hmm... By 'the same', you mean you still want to kill me?"

"Of course."

At Seong Jihan's immediate answer, Urd smiled pleasantly.

"Your ability is really useful. Controlling White Light too."

"...You're saying I controlled this?"

No.

The person in question didn't feel anything, so how could he have controlled the ability?

White Light, which had grown to 15 but still had no apparent use.

"If you were stained by light, you would have respected me. Instead of harboring killing intent."

"Respect? Just the thought is horrifying."

"Those who possess White Light are supposed to do so naturally. Like children following parents. The weak following the strong is the law of light."

"Then I guess I don't belong to that law."

"It seems so. Is it because of the Blue stat...?"

Urd, who had been watching Seong Jihan with interest, made a proposal to him.

"The Blue stat... You haven't updated its information in BattleNet. Why don't you do it? I promise not to touch you for a year if you do."

"I'm not inclined to. A year for you is nothing if you turn back time, right?"

"Hehe... Then let's add a condition. The half-elves remaining among humanity, I'll leave them alone."

"...The half-elves?"

"Yes. They were a bomb I was planning to detonate later, but I see you're in the process of removing them? So I was going to drive them mad before they all return to being human..."

Urd.

Could she influence the half-elves too?

Seong Jihan frowned at her threat, but.

[The Black Administrator warns that such intervention is impossible now that humanity has been assigned to Gold League as newcomers.]

The Black Administrator, who had been listening, sent a warning message to Urd.

"Really... I didn't expect you to not only not help, but even interfere. You."

Urd glared at the Black Administrator and.

"I guess that's all for today."

Ziiing...

She opened a green portal behind her.

"Let's meet next time without any meddlers. Blue Administrator."

With those final words, Urd vanished into the portal.

Seong Jihan watched her leave after failing at blackmail and threats, his expression hardening.

'If you don't get your act together, you'll end up cutting your own nose off to spite your face.'

If the Black Administrator hadn't sent that message, he might have wavered for a moment.

Seong Jihan slightly bowed his head towards the purple helmet.

"Thanks for letting me know just now."

[The Black Administrator asks if they can give one piece of advice.]

"By all means."

[They say that while protecting humanity is good, you should also consider the White Administrator's side.]

"...You don't mean I should protect that guy too?"

With humanity alone, there was already so much to worry about.

Surely they were not saying to protect the White Administrator too?

[Translator - Asura]

[Proofreader - Gun]

"Just take care of it yourself. How does it make sense for a term-limited administrator to protect a permanent administrator in the first place?"

[The Black Administrator says there's another way besides that - taking it.]

"...Taking it?"

Flash...!

At Seong Jihan's question, the inside of the purple helmet flashed.

[The position of White Administrator. They say that as long as you possess White Light, the Blue Administrator also has a chance.]

"...Hmm."

Could anyone who possesses White Light rise to become the White Administrator?

While Seong Jihan kept this in mind,

"I'm not interested yet. I haven't even figured out White Light itself."

He replied to the Black Administrator.

[The Black Administrator says to consider it as one of your options.]

"...Alright. Well, I'll be going back now."

The administrator world wasn't easy either, huh.

Thinking this, Seong Jihan returned to Earth.

And in the administrator conference room he had just left,

[...]

The purple helmet remained alone.

Silently watching the half of the conference room stained with light.

* * *

At the Daegi Guild office.

"You're saying I've been gone for a week?"

Seong Jihan lowered his gaze as he heard from Lee Hayeon that a significant amount of time had passed.

'I guess Urd turning the clock in the conference room had this effect.'

During the administrator meeting, it felt like barely half a day had passed.

But while Urd was raising his White Light to 15, a week had already passed in the real world.

"Yes, Owner. During that time, half-elves from all countries have been summoned. However, while many countries succeeded in 100% summoning, some half-elves in a few countries have refused the summons and gone into hiding."

"...? They refused the summons? Why?"

"Well... There are various reasons, but."

Lee Hayeon paused for a moment before continuing.

"Generally, among male half-elves, there are those who want to use their appearance similar to yours for nefarious purposes... And among female half-elves, many are reluctant to return to their original selves."

"So the men want to use faces similar to mine to commit fraud. And many women can't give up their beauty, is that it?"

"If, if you summarize it simply, that's about right...?"

Seong Jihan pressed his fingers to his temple.

What a spectacle.

"Refusing the summons means life imprisonment. Give them 3 more days, and tell them to come out immediately."

"Ah. Life imprisonment...?" freēwēbηovel.c૦m

"Yes. We've received intelligence that the World Tree Alliance plans to use half-elves. If they don't want to cause trouble like last time, tell them to bring everyone out right now. I can find them all anyway even if they hide, so don't waste unnecessary time."

He even turned back time for the whole world.

If Seong Jihan put his mind to it, he could easily travel the world and find hidden half-elves.

It was purely a waste of time, so he was not doing it.

When Seong Jihan brought up even "life imprisonment",

Lee Hayeon nodded with a serious expression.

"Yes. I'll immediately notify the countries where summoning failed of these instructions."

"Please do that. Then for the next 3 days, I'll need to visit the countries that completed the summons. Could you give me the list?"

As soon as Seong Jihan finished speaking, Lee Hayeon handed over the list of countries that completed the summons.

Rustle. Rustle.

As Seong Jihan slowly flipped through the list file, she cautiously spoke up.

"Ah. And... have you heard? About Seah."

"No. I came straight here. Has she finally woken up?"

"Yes. She woke up 4 days ago and quickly recovered her health. Right now she's training in the guild's training room."

"The training room?"

Seong Jihan stood up abruptly.

Now was not the time to look at the list.

"I'll be back shortly."

Whoosh!

Seong Jihan's figure disappeared from the guild master's office.

His body instantly teleported to the training room.

'There she is.'

With earphones in her ears, Yoon Seah was diligently doing bench presses.

Seong Jihan waited until she finished one set and.

Thud!

When she put down the barbell, he approached her.

"Seah."

As Seong Jihan leaned his face towards her lying on the bench,

"Ah...!"

Swish!

She quickly pulled her body off the bench.

And instantly ran towards the changing room.

Then, with just her face peeking out from between the changing room walls,

"Um... Uncle?"

Yoon Seah cautiously examined Seong Jihan's face.

"...What are you doing?"
