    Seong Jihans actions upon arriving in the US drew a lot of attention from many people.


    Especially the broadcast team that hade to the New York BattleNet Center early for the Space League match against the World Tree Elves.


    In the pre-game broadcast before the start of the Space League game, they live-streamed the US national team yersing out of the centers medical room after receiving treatment.


    =Oh The national team yers areing out after receiving treatment from the medical staff!


    =ording to the coaching staff, they will be participating in the Space League right away!


    =It is said that yer Seong Jihan, after Korea, has also freed all the US yers.


    =Thats really fortunate. The timing was tight!


    =Its not because Im American, but the US national team ounts for a significant portion of the Space League representative teams power! We have a match against the leagues No. 1 World Tree Elves 200ing up, so they were freed at a good time!


    The World Tree Elves 200, who were leading the Space League.


    Humanitys power to face them had been greatly shaken because of Gilgamesh.


    Although Seong Jihan had resolved this just before,


    Ah I dont know if we can properly y the Space League match.


    My physical condition has recovered, but the mental fatigue hasnt been relieved.


    The US yers, who had been pretending to be fine until entering the Space League,


    showed tired expressions as soon as they entered the game and the humanity representative teams waiting room.


    The Korean national team yers at least had 2 days to rest, but the US yers had to participate in the match right after being freed.


    Moreover,


    Ugh The stat bonuses from the King of Humanss sponsorship have all disappeared since it was cut off.


    Do you want to receive that bastards sponsorship? I still have trauma from being left with just a head back then.


    No, Im just saying


    The bonuses are regrettable though. The effects were considerable.


    The constetion bonuses given by the King of Humans were famous for having the highest benefits among the various known constetions.


    The yers whose constetion sponsorship was cut offmented this.


    Still,


    yer Seong Jihan. Could you perhaps free me too?


    I epted it because they said the King of Humans was such a good constetion, but I was shocked after seeing the final match.


    The bonuses may be good, but I dont want to be brainwashed for that.


    Among the yers from other countries, excluding the Korean and US yers, those who received Gilgameshs sponsorship were horrified after watching the finals match and approached Seong Jihan, who had a solution for this.


    The number totaled 25.


    Got it. Besides these people, are there any more?


    When Seong Jihan nced at the other yers, excluding the 25, a few of them avoided his gaze.


    Then, Sophia, who had been watching this from behind, approached Seong Jihans side.


    Uh, Jihan. Its strange. That yer over there, Martinez, definitely bragged about it on SNS, right? Later, he criticized Jihan, saying we should follow the kings orders.


    Really? Come out.


    Ugh. Urk. I-Im fine! I will continue to serve the king!


    Then, Martinez tried to run away from Seong Jihan.


    It seemed that he had served the constetion King of Humans for a long time, so loyalty to the king was already deeply imprinted in him.


    This wont do.


    Martinez wasnt the only one hiding like that.


    On this asion, I should eliminate the remnants of Gilgamesh hiding among the Space League representative team yers.


    Everyone, excuse me for a moment.


    Then, Seong Jihan began writing the domination code.


    He wrote on each of the 25 gathered before him, erasing it when Gilgamesh retreated.


    L-Loyalty! Ah. Thank you for freeing me.


    Ah. The constetiondisappeared!


    The stats have been greatly reduced


    After resolving the 25, he went to each of the remaining yers and wrote and erased the domination code.


    Ah. I-Im fine, you know?!


    Ugh. Urk! Please. Dont! Leave me to be loyal to the king!


    Most of the yers here didnt have the King of Humans as their constetion, but Seong Jihan didnt care andpletely uprooted those rted to the King of Humans.


    Uncle, isnt that tiring?


    Yoon Seah asked Seong Jihan, who was writing and erasing the domination code for each yer one by one, with a worried face, but,


    Its fine.


    Seong Jihan finished the work on all the yers in the waiting room with a body that wasnt tired at all.


    The amount of life force used to write the code was enormous, but the power of the stat Eternity fullypensated for it.


    The name Eternity really suits this stat.


    Although the maximum amount of power supply he could receive was only equivalent to stat points 2, as long as he bound Eternity with Heavenly Tree Descending Spirit, it kepting in.


    If the Eternity stat rose to 3, he would be able to use the life force corresponding to 3 infinitely within his body.


    Still, its not possible to put the life force from Eternity back in to develop it.


    The power from Eternity could only be consumed.


    Storing it back into Eternity to umte and develop the World Tree form wasnt feasible.


    If that were possible, the Eternity stat would have already self-developed continuously.


    Is that why its an iplete stat?


    Thinking so, Seong Jihan released the chains of Heavenly Tree Descending Spirit inside his body.


    Are you done with the work?


    Yes, its done.


    Thats a relief. The power has inevitably weakened, but there wont be much difference in front of the World Tree Elves.


    Coach Davis, who approached Seong Jihan, looked around at the yers.


    I have something to tell you all.


    What is it?


    As a result of the coaching staff meeting, humanity will not ban or select this time. And


    * * *


    The Space League match began.


    On the broadcast screen watched by all of humanity, the representative of the World Tree Elves 200, who had the same appearance as the previous World Tree Elves 71,


    The Elf High Priest made a deration first.


    We will definitely execute your No. 1 today.


    The public opinion was in an uproar at the elves death sentence.


    -Ha, those bastards are trying to pull something again


    -But if they used the ban card, they cant change the game options, right?


    -They didnt select. I think theyll mess with the map at the end.


    -No, what kind of game has a map that does whatever it wants


    However, when the opponent leading the league undefeated said that, they couldnt help but worry.


    -Looking at the ban card they used, it seems like a strategy to definitely win the 1st and 2nd matches.


    -If Seong Jihan gets banned, our chances of winning are slim.


    -Then, after losing the 1st and 2nd matches, will they lose the 3rd and 4th matches and bring out another bizarre map in the 5th match?


    -But if the game options dont change, how will they execute?


    -Who knows. Maybe an instant death map will appear


    -Im afraid that might really happen;


    Like the Tuseong map they saw in the recent Champions League finals, viewers were afraid of what strange map might pop out again.


    But,


    We wont just take it lying down.


    Coach Davis smiled as if he had already anticipated this and didnt take out the ban and select cards given to him.


    The Elf High Priests eyebrows twitched at that.


    Youre not using the cards.


    We cant fall for your strategy again. It seems youll summon a specific map, so well save the cards and do the same.


    =Oh! Coach Davis. He looks confident!


    =Whats the meaning of saving the cards like this?


    =Ah I think he ns to designate a map in the 5th match by saving the select cards like the opponent! If both teams designate a map, one of the two will be randomly selected!


    =Ah! Then it will be determined by a 50 percent chance whether humanitys map or the World Tree Elves map will be selected!


    =This is good. Its an excellent countermeasure!


    Coach Daviss counter-strategy prepared for the match against the World Tree Elves.


    This was one of the scenarios humanity had thought of in advance.


    If the World Tree Elves hadnt banned yer Seong Jihan, we would have easily won the game.


    The World Tree Elves, who had shown a powerful appearance in the previous match.


    But Seong Jihan was a monster surpassing them.


    If the World Tree Elves didnt use the ban card and select card likest time, saying they would execute 20 percent of the yers, humanity could put Seong Jihan at the forefront and crush the World Tree Elves just like that.


    However,


    Theyre not fools either, so they must have thought they couldnt beat yer Seong Jihan. Then, the card they would use is banning the No. 1 ranker. The choices diverge from here.


    Will they tie up Seong Jihan and do their best to win the game?


    Or will they mess around with the select card again?


    The staff of the Space League representative team considered both possibilities and devised a strategy.


    If they use both the ban and select cards, well do the same.


    If it seems like theyll mess around with the select card,


    Well also save them and reduce the probability of selecting a special map to 50 percent.


    No matter what map they pull out with the select card, humanity cant beat the World Tree Elves without Seong Jihan anyway.


    So, the strategy analysis team of the humanity representative team agreed to block their special map selection as well.


    Meanwhile, Seong Jihan watched the situation on the screen and thought,


    It ended up like this in my previous life too.


    The races that suffered the World Tree Elves executions countered like this from the next match, not using their cards either.


    In fact, this strategy didntpletely block the World Tree Elves strategy, so they ended up being executed with a 50 percent probability,


    but it was still better than 100 percent.


    However, there was a problem with this too.


    When the cards were sealed, the elves couldnt be beaten at all.


    The World Tree Elves were already powerful.


    When the strategically important ban and select cards were also sealed against them, the possibility of winning in battle was 0 percent.


    And then,


    =The match begins!


    This applied to the current humanity as well.


    =Its the Lone Bridge map. The Sword King is blocking the enemy at the front, but


    =Ah The Elf High Priest! When she reaches out her hand to the sky, meteors fall inrge numbers!


    =Still, they are somehow enduring it by putting up a protective barrier, but


    The two races shed on a single bridge.


    The power of the World Tree Elves was overwhelming.


    Although humanity had developed a lotpared to the first match of the Space League,


    -Ah. Were being pushed back


    -The elves sure are strong


    -Ah, look at that arm getting cut off and growing back right away;


    -What kind of crazy race are we matched with? Where the hell is bnce, really.


    -Ugh, the barrier is breaking The meteors are piercing right through;


    -Wow, but look at the bridge being fine even after the meteors fall, haha. How did Seong Jihan get rid of the bridgest time?


    -That was Dragon Breath, haha.


    -Ah, the Sword Kings head flew off from a wooden sword


    -Its over.


    The 1st match ended quickly.


    Afterward, in the coachs room shown on the screen,


    Are you going to keep not using the cards? Then it will be the same as the 1st match.


    The Elf High Priest said that with a smirk, but,


    Its the same even if we use them. Humanity still cant beat a monstrous race like you.


    Heh At least you know your ce.


    Coach Davis didnt waver.


    No matter how many of those monstrous elves they banned, it wouldnt change the game anyway.


    Still, we endured a bit longer than before.


    Coach Davis considered that a gain and saved the cards in the 2nd match as well.


    Then, the elves took out the No. 1 ranker ban card again.


    =We lost the 2nd match too!


    =The wall of the World Tree Elves is too high.


    =Coach Daviss judgment seems to be correct. They are not opponents we can beat even if we ban them!


    =Thats right!


    With the World Tree Elves leading 2:0 like that, the Space League match entered the 3rd match.


    The Elf High Priest withdrew the Seong Jihan ban card and smiled,


    Let that monstere out now.


    You must be thinking of losing from now on.


    Who knows?


    The Elf High Priest smiled at Coach Davis.


    She deliberately released Seong Jihan, and she seemed determined to go all the way to the 5th match.


    Seeing that, Davis also smiled back.


    Lets wait and see.


    And so, the 3rd match began.


    =Uh The lineup is a bit strange.


    =yer Seong Jihans ban was definitely lifted, but,


    =Hes not participating?


    =Moreover, the main yers arenting out, and they are all second-string level


    Thementators were surprised to see the yers representing humanity.


    The yers who appeared this time were low-level among the national team yers. They were not yers who could be selected as starters by any means. The situation was surprising enough just from the lineup, but this was only the beginning.


    Inventory.


    The yers who participated like that took out daggers with a red glow from their inventory and then,


    Lets go!


    Yes!


    Poof!


    They all stabbed their own chests at once.


    sh!


    Then, the yers logged out one by one.


    =Ah, no!


    =The humanity representative team yers they aremitting suicide!!


    Thementators screamed upon seeing this.


    They really did it.


    Seong Jihan, who couldnt participate in the 3rd match, watched this and recalled the coachs words from a little while ago.
