The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Novel

The content of the live broadcast on the Sung JiHan channel this time was quickly covered as breaking news by news channels around the world.

[Korea's Silver Sung JiHan, triumphing against diamonds.]

[From a US idol to an ordinary person. Who is Ito Shizuru?]

[Is Ito Shizuru the woman of the Sword King? Is it just a coincidence that their last names match?]

[Useless suppression special forces in front of a player whose golden status has been unlocked.]

The video that was live broadcasted this time shocked people in many ways.

The most talked-about topic was undoubtedly Sung JiHan, who is just a silver player, overpowering the diamond player Akari.

- How can a silver player defeat a diamond player?

- This is a well-made manipulation!

- Player Sung has always been the world's top promising player who has consistently achieved first place! He even played games with gold players before!

- It's impossible to manipulate videos on BattleTube.

- That Asian person is the one who appeared in the previous TOP 100 match. He became a hot topic by defeating Balan.

- Ah, so that's the person who made me lose $100,000! Has that monster already grown this much?

- What is AF doing? Why didn't they bring him?

Foreigners who didn't know much about Sung JiHan or only briefly saw him during the TOP 100 match were fascinated by the story itself.

However, in Japan, the home country of Akari, who was Sung JiHan's opponent...

Rather than talking about him, they were pouring out harsh criticism about Akari running away.

- Diamond player running away from a silver player... This video will forever be a stain on Japan (;◔д◔)

- I knew it since she did ninja otaku stuff.

- Akari is a disgrace to Japan. Don't come back and stay in Joseon wearing a hanbok wwww

- At least she's not a national representative, thankfully 草草草

- It's not a problem since we are winning the national team matches wwww

- Sword King Daisuke!!! wwww

Akari was once a highly anticipated archer in Japan.

However, ever since she chose the "Assassin" specialization, she had been branded with a negative image among the fans of the Divine Self-Defense Force.

When a journalist from a media company asked her why she chose the assassin specialization during a special interview, she answered that she chose it because she had been a ninja enthusiast since a long time ago.

People criticized her for choosing the worst specialization for an archer just because of such a reason.

Even at that time, the public opinion about Akari among the fans of the Divine Self-Defense Force was not favorable.

And now, along with Sung JiHan defeating Akari, the most talked-about topic is...

Ito Shizuru.

- But who is Ito Shizuru?

- Someone already clipped it when she was in goddess mode, lol

- I already downloaded it in my incoming folder.

- It was in the recent incoming message;;

- Ito is the last name Shizuru used. The Sword King changed her last name to Ito. Did she seduce the Sword King?

- With a face like that, no one can resist being tempted, lolololol

- Seriously, I'm making it into a one-second cut.

Because Shizuru used the last name "Ito," Koreans predicted that the Sword King had switched to her, and they praised her as a patriot.

In both Korea and Japan, she appeared on the front page of every media outlet, becoming a hot topic.

"Shizuru? Why is she...?"

It was only natural for the Sword King, who was training at the Divine Self-Defense Force headquarters, to find out about this after watching Sung JiHan's video until the end.

"Hmm...!"

With a stern expression on her face, she left the headquarters.

***

A massive mansion located in the suburbs of Tokyo.

The owner of this mansion, boasting the largest scale even in the affluent area known as "Buchon," was none other than Ito Shizuru.

After awakening her gift, "Editing," she had established herself as a prominent figure in the Japanese political and business circles.

The mansion, befitting her position, had been completed two years ago.

And recently, Ryuhei Ito, the King of Swords, had come to live with her in this house.

"Shizuru, answer me."

The King of Swords approached Shizuru with a cold face, holding a smartphone.

The smartphone screen displayed a video of Sung JiHan.

Moreover, it was frozen in the state when Ito Shizuru's doppelganger had captivated him, making her look like a goddess.

And the appearance of that woman...

"Ryuhei..."

The King of Swords looked exactly like the woman he was seeing right now.

Joo Eunji, who had been dispatched to Korea, had an ordinary appearance, unlike Ito Shizuru in Tokyo.

Ito Shizuru in Tokyo had a beauty that could be considered the pinnacle of aesthetics, perfectly harmonizing the ideals of both the East and the West. Moreover, the atmosphere surrounding her was incredibly enchanting.

Even though the King of Swords had entered in anger, he felt his anger dissipate when he saw her face.

"This won't do..."

No matter how much he loved her, he had to control his anger.

The King of Swords tried to suppress his anger, but his heart was already broken.

Just because he saw her face.

"What do you want to know?"

It seemed that Ito Shizuru had already read the King of Swords' expression and responded with a relaxed smile.

"Sung JiHan. Is it true that you went to Korea to persuade him?"

"Yes. That's right."

She casually affirmed it.

Her nonchalance made the already excited King of Swords pause for a moment.

He stammered as he spoke.

"Why, why? I'm here!"

"I wanted to acquire an exceptional player. The more talent, the better, right?"

"So, like that. You used the method of enchantment... Don't tell me, even to me..."

"Ryuhei."

Shizuru looked straight into the King of Swords' eyes.

"If that's the case?"

"Well, um..."

"In that case, what will you do?"

"..."

"Will you leave and go back to Korea?"

"You..."

Sigh.

With a captivating smile on her lips, Shizuru approached the King of Swords.

Only she emitted a fragrance.

A scent that drove people crazy, unlike any other woman he had ever met before.

No, it wasn't a specific perfume.

It was the unique scent that Ito Shizuru possessed.

"Ah..."

His anger had already disappeared, leaving only desire for her.

He knew that too.

Seeing his face made her anger subside, and smelling his scent made her excited.

It wasn't a normal reaction.

But even knowing that, she couldn't help it.

Because it made her happy.

She had a more intense addiction than any drug.

"Ryuhei, why are you so insecure?"

"I..."

"Sung JiHan is nothing more than a slave to me."

"Is that so...?"

"Yes. My love is only for you."

Shizuru approached the Sword King and gently stroked his cheek.

With that one touch, even the will to be angry disappeared.

Instead, a sense of guilt for getting angry at her for no reason filled his heart.

"I-I'm sorry... Shizuru. I got excited for no reason."

"No, it's me who should apologize... I'm embarrassed to be by your side."

"No, no! Don't leave my side. I was wrong. So please..."

The Sword King's heart sank.

Shizuru was leaving?

Just the thought of it was dreadful.

"What did you do wrong to me? It was all my fault."

"No, it's not. I got angry at you... I was completely at fault."

"Angry? Is that the only thing you did wrong?"

"Well?"

Shizuru pulled the Sword King's face closer and kissed him deeply.

And as their lips met, the Sword King's eyes clouded over.

"You doubted my love, Ryuhei."

"Ah..."

"I told you that I only love you."

"I-I'm sorry."

"So you'll have to sleep in the guest house for three days."

"But..."

Some might say that three days is nothing, but for the Sword King who spent every night with her, it was a painful punishment.

But...

"I have to make another clone. You understand, don't you, Ryuhei?"

"...I understand."

He couldn't resist Shizuru's words.

"Well then, please leave."

"Alright... I'm sorry for today."

Shizuru lightly waved her hand, dismissing the angry Sword King.

A smirk appeared on her lips.

"So troublesome."

If only she had cast a spell of enchantment and obedience, she wouldn't have to deal with this.

If her opponent was under the spell of obedience and devotion, Shizuru would trust and follow them no matter what they did.

But thanks to the obsession and dependence that the Sword King Ito Ryuhei had, he kept bothering people.

"If only it was Soy Sauce and Makkya..."

The Sword King's twin swords, Soy Sauce and Makkya.

They each had an S-class value with their blue and red colors.

But when used together, they had a special ability exclusive to dual swords that would skyrocket their grade to SSS.

And these two swords have the characteristic of "unyielding", so the state of obedience and fanaticism did not work.

"But I can't give up these two swords."

Currently, the only SSS-grade twin swords available were Gangjang and Makyah.

If there were weapons that could replace them, it would be fine, but until then, she had to continue using them.

Thump. Thump.

Sizuru walked through the annex and had conversations with numerous people.

"Oh my. Yes. Prime Minister. It's nothing serious. You trust me, right?"

"Defense Minister. Do you need any help? I'm fine. Just need to be a bit cautious. What about Takeida? Ah... Defense Minister will take care of it? Yes. Please."

"Chairman. You're investing again? It's fine... Just three pages of Akashic Pages. It's not a burden for me, you know? Oh my. You've already deposited it into my account? My, you're so hasty."

High-ranking officials in the Japanese government were worried about her after seeing this incident.

Her influence in Japan remained unaffected even in this incident.

Instead, high-ranking officials competed to support her, offering their assistance.

"I can easily retrieve the Akashic Pages."

After finishing the call, she opened the door to the annex.

She could replenish the Akashic Pages through sponsorship, but there was still an important issue remaining.

"I need to be more careful when creating this clone."

The clone Jueunji, who had been dispatched to Korea, seemed to be lacking in completion, perhaps because it was her first attempt.

Because of her lack of ability, she couldn't control Sung JiHan and her existence was exposed to the world.

This time, she needed to choose a body that would be a suitable vessel for the clone.

"That's why... there's a perfect body."

She thought of Akari.

Akari, who sacrificed her body completely and unlocked the Golden Class in the tutorial.

The female ninja who was defeated by Silver and fled.

Akari was no longer of any use to Sizuru.

"Hurry up and come. Akari."

Her eyes grew cold.

Meanwhile, Sung JiHan, who had woken up from sleep after returning home.

"Reached 1 million views within 24 hours."

"Completed the general achievement 'The World Takes Notice (1).'"

"Obtained 10,000 achievement points as a reward."

"Reached 5 million views within 24 hours."

"Completed the general achievement 'The World Takes Notice (2).'"

"Obtained 20,000 achievement points as a reward."

"Reached 10 million views within 24 hours."

"Completed the general achievement 'The World Takes Notice (3).'"

"Obtained 30,000 achievement points as a reward."

"The channel's subscribers have surpassed 1,000,000."

"Completed the general achievement 'Recruiting Subscribers (4).'"

"Obtained 50,000 achievement points as a reward."

Blinking his eyes, he confirmed the flood of achievement messages.

What the hell is going on?

"The views exceeded 10 million? Is that it?"

I thought it would attract some attention, but 10 million views in 24 hours?

And the subscribers have suddenly reached one million.

Sung JiHan had promised to reveal his status window when he reached one million subscribers.

"I earned 110,000 achievement points overnight."

It hadn't been long since he had gathered 70,000 achievement points to add the Archer class.

He had already achieved his goal.

"Great. Then I'll add the fourth class right away."

Sung JiHan opened the achievement store.
