“Oh.”

Admin-42$@12!@.

Just as he was pondering the newly appeared name of Urd in the system,

The timing of this contact was perfect.

“You’re not much of a gentleman either.”

[What on earth do you mean by that?]

“I mean you contacted me at the right time.”

Seong Jihan answered the White Administrator kindly with a grin.

[Ha. Is this the time for jokes! Do you know what kind of trouble you’ve caused? Adding Tower to BattleNet. What on earth are you trying to do…!]

“Why? Is there a problem?”

[The four game types have been with BattleNet since its inception. These are games whose stability has been proven through a long history. But this Tower you’ve added… it’s too out of the blue.]

“Hey. You’re the one who recommended the Tower of Martial Gods to me in the first place. You told me to revive a discontinued content.”

[I never meant for you to revive it to this extent!!!!!!!!]

This guy sure used a lot of exclamation marks.

As Seong Jihan looked at the message window indifferently, the White Administrator continued to berate him.

[Was there ever a need for tower climbing to come out independently in the first place! Doesn’t it overlap a lot with the Dungeon game type…!]

“Ah, don’t blame me. I just stumbled into this too.”

[R-really? Then give it up!]

“That’s not possible.”

This event was where a new item had been added to the BattleNet game types.

He thought Seong Jihan would give this up just like that?

Seong Jihan chuckled and kicked away that suggestion in one go.

[…You rascal. If the BattleNet system is shaken by the addition of a new game type, how will you take responsibility?]

“Why should I take responsibility? If BattleNet can’t handle adding one more game type, that’s the problem. Don’t worry too much before things even start.”

[Huh…!]

“Hey. More than that. I have a question.”

[Do you think I’ll give you information in this situation?]

The White Administrator replied curtly to Seong Jihan, but,

“About Urd’s true name. It started with Admin, right?”

[…What?]

When Seong Jihan brought up Urd, his attitude changed 180 degrees.

[Tell me quickly. What was written after that?]

“…You. Aren’t you getting too excited? This makes me not want to tell you willingly.”

[Blue Administrator. This is not a matter to joke about right now…!]

The White Administrator came out saying to stop joking and quickly tell him what came after Admin, but,

“I’m not joking?”

Seong Jihan twisted the corner of his mouth while looking at that message.

“I should use this opportunity to clear up some of my curiosities.”

[Huh. Are you going to ruin our cooperative relationship like this?]

“You also said something to me about Tower.”

[…]

When the White Administrator couldn’t reply to Seong Jihan’s words, he asked questions.

“First. What are the final missions for each game type?”

[…I guess you found out after being assigned the Tower game type.]

“Yes. Do the other game types have them too?”

[I’ll answer if you end your questions with this one.]

“I have more things I’m curious about though? Like the secret of the number 4212. Or the identity of the Key of Life.”

[…Those are all information shared only among our kind. If you join the Light Clan, I’ll tell you right away.]

That damn Light Clan.

He made excuses about his kind whenever Seong Jiahn tried to ask important questions.

Seong Jihan frowned.

‘In that case, I’ll have to cross-verify.’

He decided to confirm the “way to become lazy” he had heard from the Black Administrator.

“Hey. Then. Tell me how to become lazy. To become one of your kind.”

[You need to analyze your stats and figure that out yourself…]

“Ah. Then you figure out Urd’s ID yourself too. I saw it had special characters mixed in.”

[R-really? Special characters… Alright. You just need to know how to become lazy?]

“Yeah. I understand the rest.”

The White Administrator, who initially didn’t want to tell, immediately changed his response when told that Urd’s ID included special characters.

[Don’t expand your authority even if you gain more White Light.]

“Don’t expand my authority?”

[Yes. Right now, aren’t you materializing the Tower of Martial Gods through BattleTube? That can be said to be a characteristic of your White Light.]

“Hmm… Wasn’t that the end of it? It expands further?”

[Yes. When your White Light ability reaches 100, an opportunity to expand your authority comes. Of course, not everyone gets this chance. Only some exceptional ones get that opportunity, but…]

At those words, Seong Jihan recalled what the Messenger had said before.

-You must not develop your light abilities, but leave them as is… Only then can you be recognized as lazy.

This matched roughly with what the Black Administrator said, didn’t it?

‘Was what the Black guy said true?’

Since it had been cross-verified, it must be right.

He didn’t know with what intention the Black Administrator told him this.

‘The surface reason is for me to become part of the Light Clan, but…’

Seong Jihan, while harboring such doubts, asked the White Administrator again about what he had asked earlier.

“Okay. I’ll take note of the laziness thing. Now, tell me about the final missions. Do final missions exist for other game types too?”

[…Yes. Final missions exist for all of them.]

Seong Jihan’s eyes lit up at that message.

It clearly said that the player who clears the final mission ‘Tower of Martial Gods’ would be granted the rights to the ‘Tower’ game type.

If he could clear the final missions of other game types, he could surely be granted their authorities too.

“How do you challenge them?”

To Seong Jihan’s question,

[Blue Administrator. Why don’t you stop being greedy and just manage the newly added ‘Tower’ well? That’s not an easy task either.]

Instead of answering, the White Administrator brought up the idea of just managing what he had received.

Seeing him talk like this after mentioning their cooperative relationship,

“Are you managing a game type too?”

[…You’re quick-witted.]

“It’s not that I’m quick-witted, you’re the one showing it. So. What item are you managing?”

[Why do you want to know?]

“Aren’t we in a cooperative relationship like you said? I’ll make sure not to intrude on your management area.”

At Seong Jihan’s words, after a moment of silence, the White Administrator,

[…I’m in charge of Dungeon and Defense.]

Readily informed him about the game types he was managing.

If the White Administrator, a permanent administrator, was in charge of two,

“Is the Black Administrator in charge of the other two… Invade and Survival?”

[That’s right. Those two items are under Black’s jurisdiction.]

“I see… How do you challenge those?”

[Do you think I’d tell you that?]

Fair enough.

If Seong Jihan were to clear the final mission, he might take away the authority over the game type.

He wouldn’t be crazy enough to tell about his own.

Still,

“Even if you won’t tell about yours, can’t you tell me about Black’s?”

[Huh. Don’t tell me you’re planning to take away the Black Administrator’s jurisdiction?]

“I just want to know.”

[…I don’t know about the final missions of his game jurisdictions either. It was an unwritten rule not to touch each other’s areas in this regard.]

“Hmm… I see.”

It seemed he couldn’t find out about the final missions right now.

Seong Jihan decided to be satisfied with this much for now.

[So, what’s Urd’s ID?]

“It’s Admin-42$@12!@.”

When Seong Jihan revealed the ID like that,

[…Is that true? Are you sure you didn’t see it wrong?]

“That’s how it appeared to my eyes. What does this mean?”

[If that ID is really correct… No. No, this needs verification… But…]

The message window showed clear signs of confusion.

It continued sending characters like that, then,

Swish…

The light quickly began to fade.

[I need to hide deeper. I won’t communicate from now on… Yes. Let’s meet after you become part of the Light Clan.]

“After I become part of the Light Clan?”

[Yes. If Urd’s ID is really that… You. No, even me… We’re all no different from her lab rats. If we lab rats don’t cooperate, we won’t survive that monster.]

“Lab rats…”

[Yes. If Urd invades Earth now, can you stop her?]

Seong Jihan shook his head at those words.

Even the normal Urd who could turn back time was hard to stop, but the Void state version of her was a powerhouse of a completely different level.

She did give him 60 levels earlier, but,

‘That was because of the Tower of Martial Gods’s adjustment. In an actual confrontation, I wouldn’t be a match at all…’

Of course, he could burn her Void with Blue Flame, but in terms of total power, Seong Jihan was no match for Urd.

The reason such a powerhouse was leaving him alone was,

As the White Administrator said, probably because she was curious what results this lab rat would produce.

[Well then, become part of the Light Clan as soon as possible. I’ll go into hiding to avoid her notice…]

“Alright.”

Ziiing…

With that final message, the White Administrator cut off communication.

‘I guess I’ll have to wait until my White Light grows.’

There were three conditions to become part of the Light Clan.

One must be lazy and greedy,

And White Light must reach 200.

‘200… At the current rate, it’ll take quite a long time.’

White Light, which had been increasing by 1-2 per day.

This stat hadn’t even reached 100 yet, so it would probably take 2-3 months of waiting.

‘Hmm. Then rather than just sitting around until then…’

Seong Jihan opened the system window.

There, a ‘Tower’ management window existed, which hadn’t been there before.

‘I guess I should try using this.’

* * *

3 days later.

-When will the Tower of Martial Gods update end?

-Blue Administrator. I was on the 38th floor… I was just about to get stat red…

-Really ㅡㅡ; Did they close it because they were giving out too many stat red?

-Nah… Before turning off the video last time, the tower was glowing, wasn’t it because of that?

-The Green Administrator sent a message asking to see that object.

-Could it be… Did Green invade and kill Blue?

-No, if that happened, the channel would disappear.

When the Tower of Martial Gods closed for updates, alien players who had been challenging the tower to get stat red gathered in Seong Jihan’s channel to discuss this.

They closed it because they couldn’t handle giving out too many stat red.

No, they were actually updating.

The Green Administrator invaded and they were fighting, and so on.

Various speculations were going around, and everyone was wondering when it would reopen, when

Ziiing…

[Content is being added to BattleNet.]

[A new game type, ‘Tower’, is being created.]

[When matching for games, you will now be assigned to ‘Tower’ type maps with random probability.]

A message appeared in front of all players.

-Tower???

-What’s this;

-A game type… One more has been added to the 4 types of games?

-Wow, is that even possible?

-Could this be related to the Tower of Martial Gods?

-No way…

-Someone try queuing to see what it’s like.

-Don’t tell others to do it, you do it. lol

-I’ll go, come watch my channel.

Players couldn’t hide their confusion at the newly added game type, but

-The map name is just ‘Tower’.

-This seems similar to the Tower of Martial Gods?

-The climbing seems a bit easier than the Tower of Martial Gods.

-Crazy monsters would randomly appear after the 10th floor, but the Tower map’s difficulty seems well-adjusted.

-Do you get red after the 40th floor here too?

Users who were randomly assigned to Tower maps in matchmaking and started playing, were satisfied with the much easier difficulty compared to the Tower of Martial Gods.

However, that didn’t last long.

-What’s with the 20th floor?

-I died there too…

-No, the small guy is a crazy monster? Wasn’t this map supposed to have stat adjustments like the Tower of Martial Gods?

-The stat adjustment was applied, that’s how it appeared.

All players were stuck at the 20th floor of the Tower map and couldn’t go further.

-Everyone’s failing at the 20th floor;

-Who on earth is the opponent? Upload a screenshot.

As players who weren’t matched to Tower maps were curious,

Pictures of the 20th floor boss started being uploaded one by one.

-What’s this small race

-This… Isn’t this the same human race as the Blue Administrator?

At first, there were sarcastic reactions asking if everyone was beaten by such a small boss, but

-No… You guys really don’t know this person?

-This is the Cosmic Demon ㅡㅡ;

When one of the alien players who knew Dongbang Sak’s appearance commented on the 20th floor boss,

-What???

The reactions changed 180 degrees.
