<Mushin Returns to Level 2 Episode 223>
“What do you mean, swallowing the sun?”
Jihan Seong gave Eclipse and the Queen’s fingers and expressed a question to Artmu.
They’re talking so grandiosely about strengthening Eclipse.
[I guess we still don’t know why Eclipse was created.]
Eclipse and the Queen’s fingers rise in the air.
Kang! Kang!
Twenty arms simultaneously raised their hammers and struck it.
Rather than fusing the sword and fingers to advance to the next level, the reforging method seems to just destroy them.
One is Eclipse, and one is the Queen’s Finger.
Even though the hammer struck it countless times, it was not crushed at all.
Seong Ji-han looked at this silently and then continued to ask questions.
“Why did an eclipse occur?”
[I once received a request similar to this one from the Shadow Queen. She named her own sword Eclipse, and she said, ‘With this sword I will devour her sun.’]
Seong Ji-han remembered the meaning of eclipse when he heard those words.
Eclipse, which means eclipse, occurs when the moon blocks the sun.
The name of the sword wasn’t just created in vain; was there a goal?
“But why are you trying to swallow the sun?”
[Isn’t the shadow elf’s enemy the world balance? Although they are treated as weak rebels by the World Tree Alliance.]
[It is not weak. How many planets have been liberated so far?]
[Hoo? This sword seems to have room to flutter its mouth? Go harder!]
Kang! Kang! Kang!
After seeing Ariel getting angry at being treated like a weak rebel.
Artmu is striking his sword even more excitedly.
[This barbaric… … !]
[haha. Keep your mouth shut. If you do that for no reason, it will take a long time to fuse.]
[…] … .]
As Ariel remained silent, Seong Ji-han continued to ask questions.
“What does the world tree have to do with the sun?”
[There is a rumor floating around in the Battle.net community regarding the World Tree Alliance. Do you know the space tree Yggdrasil?]
“know. Last time, instead of unlocking Hideout, they wanted to sponsor me. “They said they would give 100 trillion GP.”
[What? 100 trillion?? What did you do? Don’t cancel it right away!]
Artmu stops hammering.
The eyes of the combined robot flashed so intensely that they seemed to pierce Seong Ji-han.
“I can’t give information to such a dangerous guy.”
[…] … That’s it. under. It’s a shame that you’re still in hiding even after meeting you in person. Can’t you get rid of the blackout on that face?]
“Why are you trying to sell information to Yggdrasil?”
[huh.]
“Do you want to do it?”
[what… … I won’t do it.]
Kang! Kang!
Artmu hammered again and stared at Seong Jihan.
[To go back to the story earlier. The space tree Yggdrasil has already built its own planetary system.]
“A planetary system?”
[This means that Yggdrasil has become an artificial sun.]
“… … what? sun? “A tree?”
Space tree Yggdrasil.
The name was obviously a tree, but was it actually an artificial sun?
Seong Ji-han was dumbfounded when the scale suddenly exceeded his imagination.
[okay. A tree becoming the sun is a phenomenon that goes beyond even Battle.net’s imagination. But what… … They say the artificial sun isn’t perfect. So, to make up for this, I heard that the World Tree Alliance planet will be incorporated into the Bronze League.]
Kang! Kang!
How much alternative information is circulating in the Battle.net community?
Artmu has a general knowledge of the circumstances of the World Tree Alliance.
He then added:
[Still, it’s fortunate that the World Tree Alliance doesn’t have many planets. Because the probability of being incorporated into the Bronze League like them is extremely slim.]
“We were there. World Tree Alliance Elves.”
[…] … okay? That’s really unlucky. If you don’t get an answer, abandon the race and run away quickly. If you use my blacksmith pass, I can make you a usable spaceship.]
Artmu recommends abandoning the race simply because it is included in the same league as the elves.
With just that one word, it was clear how far the World Tree Alliance’s notoriety had spread throughout the universe.
But Seong Ji-han had no intention of running away.
“No, are you going to kill them all?”
[You’re so ignorant and brave… … However, since the future is obvious, I need to buy spacecraft materials in advance.]
“Sell that to other kids. “So Eclipse is a sword aimed at the artificial sun Yggdrasil?”
[right. The Shadow Queen announced her intention to devour the sun with her sword. Although it was nonsense.]
Kang! Kang!
After hitting it with a hammer countless times, my finger is finally starting to slowly enter the eclipse.
[As a blacksmith myself, I was curious to see how far her sword would go. So I helped her with her ex and failed. No matter what I did, her shadow sword never rose to EX level. But this sword… … .]
Artmu was staring intently at Seong Ji-han’s face, who was in a hideout state.

I finally turned my gaze to the sword.
[…] … It has different possibilities than back then.]
Cheeeeeek… … !
After a long time of knocking.
Black smoke rose from the eclipse, and the fingers and sword were completely fused.
[You, the owner, hold it and look for the final complement.]
A shadow sword floating towards Seong Ji-han.
Seong Ji-han held the Eclipse.
‘The shadow power has been greatly strengthened.’
The Queen’s fingers are fused together, and Eclipse is clearly stronger than before.
But Seong Ji-han couldn’t shake off the feeling of something being regrettable.
‘I think there’s something more to improve… … .’
Shoooooo.
Seong Ji-han, who was using the sword, was in the middle part of Eclipse.
I discovered that the concentration of shadow energy was different from other areas.
[Why is this place empty… … master. Can you fill me in? If I just fill in this area, the sword will definitely become stronger.]
Ariel asked Seong Ji-han to fill in the empty part.
“hmm… … .”
Seong Ji-han looked at the sword and was lost in thought.
Is it right to only strengthen the shadow energy like this?
‘If the Shadow Queen’s goal of swallowing the sun is Eclipse’s goal. The right direction would be to amplify the power of shadow energy, but… … .’
That’s the queen’s situation.
The Eclipse that Seong Ji-han would use had to be designed to fit his hands.
‘Just as the attribute of fire was imbued into the Thunder God’s Faith. When I added the energy of life to the dark spirit, an unexpected synergy effect occurred.’
The energy of life possessed by the elves.
Contrary to the thought that the two would be incompatible with the shadow energy, when used together, they were surprisingly useful.
‘Just as I developed the Thunder God’s Wisdom, I should also test the Shadow God’s Wisdom in this direction.’
Seong Ji-han thinks so.
The energy of life was infused into the central part of the sword.
[master… … Hey, what are you doing now? It’s a joke, right?]
“You felt it last time too. “It was effective because it mixed with the energy of life.”
[Oh, that’s not good. I feel strange. I don’t think it’s a shadow elf!]
“Get used to it.”
[hey!!]
Ariel lost her temper and screamed.
Shoooooo… … !
Seong Ji-han mercilessly breathed the energy of life into the central part of the sword.
OK.
In the middle of the black blade, a green light flashes.
The energy of life began to respond within the sword.
‘Hoo.’
Eclipse reacts as if he had been waiting for this to happen.
The green light bursting from the eclipse gathered in the center.
It was embedded like a round jewel in the center of the black sword body.
[You inserted something foreign into the center of the sword. Life force similar to that of an elf… … Is that your choice?]
“okay.”
[It would have been more useful right now to fill it with shadow energy… … You’re doing something unusual. I think I know why the Shadow Queen readily handed over her finger.]
“Was it the Queen’s arrangement that the central part of the sword was empty?”
[Yes. When fusing, the strength of the fingers left only that side empty.]
Did you also want to see the Shadow Queen use the two energies together?
When Seong Ji-han was thinking like that.
[The name of ‘Shadow of the Sun’ has been changed to ‘Shadow of Life’.]
[Grade measurement is not possible.]
The name and grade of Eclipse’s original item name, ‘Shadow of the Sun’, have been changed.
[Shadow of Life]
-Rating : ??
-It was the terminal of the constellation ‘Shadow Queen’.
-Shadow sword, can be converted to the form of ‘Eclipse’.
-Because the power of life is mixed in Eclipse, the use of shadow power is limited.
-However, depending on the use of power, there is a possibility that the sword’s grade can go up to EX.
Shadow of the Sun, which started out as SS level.
As this turned into a shadow of life, the rating changed to ? and the performance seemed to deteriorate.
‘Possibility of going to EX level… … This is enough.’ Seong Ji-han paid attention to the end of the explanation.
If Eclipse had been filled with more shadow energy a moment ago, it would have ended up at the maximum SSS+ level.
Thanks to the breath of life, even if the performance is different right now.
It became possible to see further into the future.
When he was satisfied with the changed sword.
Jijijijik… … .
An electric current crackled through one of the 20 arms that Artmu had summoned.
pop!
One arm was completely torn off.
[The Shadow Sword wasn’t easy, after all. I used up an arm.]
Even though his arm was blown off, Artmu looks familiar.
He looked at Seong Ji-han and asked a question.
[And next time… … How about it? 3 blacksmith vouchers, should you use them now?]
When Seong Ji-han asked that question, he thought of Yoon Se-ah.
Now that I think about it, I thought I would try a bow if I got the chance.
“Are there any good bows?”
[Are you planning on using the voucher? Or are you thinking of purchasing it with GP?]
“Oh, do you have anything for sale?”
[okay. Coincidentally, I once received a request from a constellation of a weak race. Since she was giving it to her own daughter, she asked her to make it with a focus on her growth… … I worked hard to make it.]
Artmu muttered that as he opened his inventory and rummaged through it.
“But why didn’t you buy it?”
[The wandering martial god invaded that planet. There is no news after that.]
“You work hard. “That warrior.”
[The number of my customers he killed must be hundreds. But these days, I’m a bit less active… … Ah, here it is.]
Artmu took out a bow from his inventory.
[The current grade is SS grade, but it is a weapon that grows with its owner. He will quickly grow to SSS level. It can go even higher than that. how is it. Do you want to buy it?]
“You look okay. “How much?”
[hmm… … It only costs 20 billion GP.]
20 billion GP?
What kind of bow is so expensive?
‘The item itself looks good… … .’
Let Seong Ji-han think for a moment.
[hmm… … You can also pay in installments. 5 years. It may seem expensive, but it’s definitely not. Growing up with the owner is a huge advantage. It was really difficult to make. The materials cost more.]
Artmu became more talkative than ever.
“Hmm, shall we negotiate?”
[What, are you going to cut it?? This item is one of my masterpieces! Negotiating the price with the best craftsman in the universe… … This is trampling on my pride!]
“ah. Not money. Your light energy is a bit special. “Can I get some?”
[The energy of light… … Ah, good. I will give you a sunstone filled with the energy of light. Instead, the price will remain the same?]
“okay. No need for installments. “I’ll give you a lump sum payment.”
[Oh, customer… … !]
On Seong Ji-han’s declaration of lump sum payment. Artmu automatically bent his back.
[Then, we will help you with payment!]
Of all the things I’ve seen so far, this was the most polite attitude.

March 1, World Battle.net Federation conference room in New York.
This day was one of the most important days in the World Battle.net Alliance.
That’s right too.
“Let’s start the meeting.”
“Today’s agenda is related to the selection of ‘Guild of the Year’.”
It was the day when the Battle.net Alliance selected the guild of the year, chosen once a year.
‘This year, it’s just the People’s Association’s turn… … .’
‘Why did you decide to hold a meeting at the People’s Assembly?’
Representatives of influential guilds from each country looked with meaningful eyes at the representative of the People’s Association, which hosted today’s meeting.
Seong Ji-han declared that if the People’s Association wanted to participate, they should present this year’s guild.
Most people in the Battle.net industry thought that the People’s Assembly would reject this.
The benefits of being selected as Guild of the Year were great.
But, the People’s Assembly came forward and hosted the meeting.
‘no way… … .’
That arrogant guild.
There is no way I can accept Seong Ji-han’s absurd claims.
With that thought in mind, the representatives of each country waited for the words of the representative of the People’s Assembly.
and.
“… … “We, the People’s Association, recommend the waiting guild as a candidate for this year’s guild.”
The representative of the People’s Association clenched his teeth and opened his mouth.
The conference room quickly became buzzing.
