Inside the broadcasting studio set up in the Daegi Guild.
Seong Jihan, who had come out of the training room, decided to turn on BattleTube here.
The reason he wasn’t turning it on at home as usual was,
‘The Dragon Lord’s heart has gotten too big.’The Dragon Lord’s heart, which had been about the size of Seong Jihan when he received it,
Was now three times more swollen than that time.
He couldn’t fully contain it at home, so he had no choice but to come down to the guild.
However,
‘It’s already in use.’
In the largest studio, the Shadow Queen was doing a BattleTube live broadcast with several guests.
As Seong Jihan watched quietly from a distance with his arms crossed,
“Oh, Boss!”
Lee Hayeon, the guild master, approached with a delighted face.
“It’s really been a long time since I’ve seen you at the guild!”
“Indeed. It’s been over a thousand days.”
“Huh? A thousand days?”
“I was in the training room for that long.”
“Ah, right. Isn’t the flow of time different inside the training room?”
The flow of time in the Void training room was different from Earth.
Lee Hayeon, who nodded at Seong Jihan’s words, stared at his left face.
“Boss, but… The cracks on your face seem to have gotten bigger.”
“Is that so? I guess this happened because I dealt with the Void a bit while training.”
“Is… that okay?”
“It’s still not a problem yet.”
“Yet…”
When Lee Hayeon was examining his face with a worried look,
“Guild Master. Here is the data you were looking for… Oh…”
A staff member of the Daegi Guild came to report to Lee Hayeon, but upon seeing Seong Jihan’s face, he was startled and shrank back.
Before, when people saw Seong Jihan, they used to give him looks of curiosity and admiration.
But after the cracks of the Void intensified, there was fear mixed in their eyes when they saw him.
Lee Hayeon sensed the staff member’s reaction and frowned.
“Just give it and go.”
“Y-Yes!”
The staff member quickly handed the documents to Lee Hayeon and left the scene as if running away.
She looked at Seong Jihan and said,
“I’m sorry. I’ll fire that staff member.”
“No, why would you fire him for that?”
“He got scared after seeing Boss’s face.”
“Well, it’s understandable to be scared. Even I think I don’t look human.”
Seong Jihan looked at his face reflected in a nearby window and nodded.
Unlike when he had a few cracks on his chin,
Now his face looked like a shattered window that seemed like it would break if you lightly touched it.
On top of that, the purple energy swirling in the cracks gave an ominous feeling.
“Ah, it’s really annoying… Last time he was so happy that Boss helped his mother get discharged from the hospital.”
“Human instinct can’t be helped. Not just that staff member, but many people are scared.”
“I’m sorry. I should give them a stern warning later…”
Lee Hayeon glanced at the staff members in the back with cold eyes,
Then spoke to Seong Jihan again.
“By the way, did you come to use the studio today?”
“Yes, the BattleTube I’m doing today requires a large space.”
“Then I’ll kick the Queen out right away.”
“Ah, it’s okay. Let’s just wait a bit.”
Seong Jihan raised his hand as if it was fine, but
“Everyone, we’ll have to end the broadcast here today.”
The Shadow Queen had already sensed Seong Jihan’s presence and was hurriedly ending the broadcast.
-Huh? Why are you ending it already?
-Didn’t you say you were going to do a plastic-feeding experiment on slimes?
-For real, if this experiment succeeds, won’t humanity be freed from garbage?
-But won’t it become a slime heaven instead of getting rid of garbage ??
The people watching the Queen’s channel protested, asking why she wasn’t doing the slime special broadcast, but
“The guild owner said he needs to use the studio. The Boss takes priority.”
When the Shadow Queen said Seong Jihan had come, the atmosphere completely changed.
-Ah then it makes sense.
-What are you doing? Hurry up and move.
-Are slimes important right now? lol
-He’s not filming at home today… Is there something big?
-Turn it off quickly!
“…I’m going, going.”
The Shadow Queen waved her hand a few times and turned off the broadcast.
“You could have taken your time.”
“How can I make the biggest investor wait? I can use the slime content later. And,”
Swish.
The Shadow Queen approached Seong Jihan and smiled.
“I’m curious what kind of broadcast you’re going to do here.”
“Well, it’s nothing much.”
Seong Jihan walked into the studio and opened his inventory to take out an item.
What came out was a huge red gem.
“That’s…”

“They say it’s the Dragon Lord’s heart?”
“H-Heart?”
The Dragon Lord’s heart, emitting intense heat and looking like it would burn its surroundings at any moment.
Seong Jihan blocked this heat from affecting the surroundings.
“…Why did you take that out?”
“I have to show it to the Dragon Lord.”
Seong Jihan turned on BattleTube and calmly replied,
“So he’ll summon me.”
* * *
As soon as Seong Jihan turned on BattleTube,
-Oh, it’s not at home today?
-The Shadow Queen said she gave up her spot earlier lol
-Is he going to do guild content? Since he’s broadcasting from the guild studio.
-Doesn’t seem like it, there’s a huge ruby next to him.
-But why is his face even more cracked?;;
-I know… I’m worried it might shatter at this rate
Not only the human viewers who were waiting in advance,
-It’s been a while since this channel was on.
-Come to think of it, the tournament didn’t happen…
-Anyone who participates after seeing him fight the Martial God is a fool.
-But I didn’t expect even the Great Constellations to back out.
But a significant number of alien viewers also immediately joined.
Seong Jihan’s channel, which had become the most prominent on BattleTube after the battle with the Martial God,
Boasted unchanging popularity despite taking a ten-day break this time.
“Hello, everyone.”
Seong Jihan lightly bowed his head and tapped the huge gem right next to him.
“I turned on the broadcast today to show you this item.”
-What is that ore?
-Looks like he’s not fighting today?
-Now that the channel is popular, he’s going straight into sales… I should unsubscribe.
-But the magic of fire inside it seems considerable? Depending on the price, it might be worth buying.
When Seong Jihan pointed to the red gem next to him,
The impatient alien viewers denounced him, asking if he was already advertising now that the channel was popular.
However,
[Dragon Lord donated 100 million GP.]
[That item, could it be my heart…]
When the Dragon Lord shot 100 million and sent a message,
-What…
-That’s the Dragon Lord’s heart…?
-Come to think of it, the Dragon Heart did feel like that ore.
-But other dragons’ hearts weren’t that big;
-It’s the Dragon Lord. The size would be different.
The atmosphere in the chat window that was calling it an advertisement changed at once.
“He recognizes his own heart at a glance.”
[Dragon Lord donated 100 million GP.]
[How did you get that… Where did you obtain it from? This is clearly the part I offered before…]
Based on him saying he offered it, it seems to be the heart part he handed over to the Red Administrator.
Seong Jihan tapped the Lord’s heart with his finger and said,
“You know, before you said you’d accept it if I offered myself as a special tribute… But when I tried it today, you refused?”
The special tribute where you can offer items to your sponsoring constellation.
Seong Jihan had previously said he would offer himself as a tribute item and invade the Dragon Lord’s lair.
The Dragon Lord had said to come at him all he wanted, that he would show him hell.
However,
‘But when I actually tried it this morning, this bastard immediately refused.’
After coming out of the training room,
Seong Jihan had tried a self-tribute once without using the items the Arena Owner gave him.
But,
[Sponsoring constellation ‘Dragon Lord’ has rejected the player’s special tribute.]
The Dragon Lord, who had been confident saying to come at him all he wanted, seemed to have gotten scared after seeing the battle with the Martial God.
He immediately rejected Seong Jihan’s special tribute.
And the viewers who were watching the conversation between the two,
-What does that mean? He rejected the special tribute?
-He got scared lol
-But still, his lair is his home ground;
-The Martial God’s place was also home ground.
-That’s true. The Dragon Lord probably thought it would only be a headache to summon him, since he won’t combine with a star like the Martial God.
-But still, it’s a matter of pride as a Great Constellation, tsk…
They started mocking the Dragon Lord who had refused the special tribute.
Seong Jihan looked at the flow of the chat window,
“The public opinion isn’t good, Dragon Lord. How about it? This time I’ll go with this, so will you accept it?”
Tap. Tap.
He tapped the Dragon Lord’s heart with his fist.
Then,
[Dragon Lord donated 100 million GP.]
[I don’t care about the opinions of insignificant beings. However… What about your right hand?]
The Dragon Lord abruptly asked about Seong Jihan’s hand.
-Why is he suddenly talking about the hand?
-Come to think of it, the eyes aren’t appearing on the Administrator’s Hand.
-Isn’t it sealed like last time?
At first, the viewers thought the hand was just sealed like last time, but
[Dragon Lord donated 100 million GP.]
[I heard the Administrator’s authority has disappeared from your hand.]
When the Dragon Lord said that, they showed interest.
-The Administrator’s Hand is gone? For real?
-Then wasn’t the tournament impossible to hold in the first place? The prize is gone.
-It’s fortunate there were no participants;
-For real, if it was like “You defeated Seong Jihan, but actually there was no Administrator’s Hand!” the arena would have been turned upside down lol
-But who did the Dragon Lord hear that from?
As the Dragon Lord and the Administrator’s Hand were mentioned,
The alien chat window was flooded with messages within a few minutes of starting the broadcast.
Seong Jihan looked at this and his eyes sank.
‘The Arena Owner must have informed the Dragon Lord of this information.’
Telling him to check the Administrator’s Hand.
So that Seong Jihan would embed the red eye he received and put in his inventory into the back of his hand.
‘For now, should I pretend to go along with it?’
Seong Jihan put his right hand into the inventory and grasped the eyeball.
Then,
Swish…
Inside the inventory, the Administrator’s eye was absorbed by his right hand.
[Stat ‘Red’ increases by 100.]
And as the Administrator’s eye was absorbed and an eyeball appeared on the back of his hand,
Red instantly increased by 100.
Swish.
Seong Jihan took his hand out of the inventory and showed it to the Dragon Lord.
“I don’t know where you heard that rumor, but the hand is right here.”
-It looked like he put his hand in the inventory… Did he release the seal?
-It’s not fake, right?
-Well, the eyeball squirming looks exactly the same as before.
The viewers were convinced it was the Administrator’s Hand after seeing the back of Seong Jihan’s hand.
That’s how identical the movement of the eyeball was to the previous one.
“Now, are your doubts cleared?”
As Seong Jihan pointed to the eyeball with his finger,
[Dragon Lord donated 100 million GP.]
[Good. In 3 days, bring the heart and offer yourself as a special tribute. On that day, I will annihilate you.]
The Dragon Lord sent a final message after finishing his confirmation.
“Tsk, just do it now. Why again in 3 days…”
Perhaps the experience of the avatar’s defeat in the tournament was so great,
The Dragon Lord was going to summon him later even after checking all the items.
-Ah, as a Great Constellation, I have to prepare to fight a constellation candidate lol
-The dragon race will now receive a total mobilization order.
-No, for a Great Constellation, the Dragon Lord is too unsightly…
-The image of the great monarch who revived the dragon race has completely vanished this year;
-For real, how many traps is he going to set up that he’s asking for 3 days of leeway?
The alien viewers understood the Dragon Lord’s intentions and were dumbfounded.
“Well, if that’s what our sponsoring constellation wants, I have no choice. See you in 3 days, everyone.”
And so, the broadcast ended, and 3 days later.
[Sponsoring constellation ‘Dragon Lord’ has accepted the player’s special tribute.]
Seong Jihan, who successfully offered the special tribute and entered the Dragon Lord’s lair,
[You’re here.]
[Now! Ice Breath!]
[Subdue him immediately!]
The moment he was summoned,
He received concentrated fire from Dragon Breaths filled with cold energy from all directions.
The dragons’ attacks to keep in check Seong Jihan, who dealt with Red.
However,
“Oh…”
Seong Jihan’s face, who was actually receiving the concentrated attacks, was brighter than ever.
That was natural.
[Stat ‘Azure’ increases by 2.]
Because an unexpected stat was increasing as he was hit by the Ice Breaths.
