Choi Ye-bin thoroughly explored the interior of the tower, which resembled a massive palace.

Several objects floating in the air, expensive-looking staffs and artifacts placed in all directions, and numerous formidable individuals.

“I heard there has been significant progress in Magderas’s magic development research. Once again, countless people are eagerly anticipating that another great history will be engraved this time.”

“Haha. Thank you for your anticipation. However, as the research is still ongoing, please continue to watch over it a bit longer.”

While some high-ranking individuals were visible, they all bowed and greeted Magderas. Quick-witted killer, Choi Ye-bin, could tell in an instant. Magderas was the crucial figure supporting this massive tower. That man.

“You don’t look that old, yet you’re quite remarkable. You must have suffered a lot to reach that position.”

“I did put in a lot of effort.”

Choi Ye-bin scrutinized Magderas’s face once again. He appeared to be in his early to mid-thirties. Considering that most exceptional magicians who receive respect and awe from numerous people are generally in their forties to fifties or older, he looked quite young.

Some people passed by, and soon, a massive room came into view.

“Starting today, you can use this room. You need time to adapt, right? Spend a few hours here doing what you want for now. If you need food or anything else, call me.”

Magderas handed Choi Ye-bin a small magic device.

“How do I use this?”

“Just touch the device and think about what you want to say to me. That’s all.”

“This place seems nice.”

Magderas didn’t respond. The world Choi Ye-bin had inhabited was a space where half of the population were raiders, or rather, if one were to broaden the definition of raiders, it was a space where the majority of the population were raiders. To her, any place would seem appealing.

“Well, get accustomed to it. I’m busy.”

McDeras went outside, and Choi Yebin started looking around. McDeras called it a room, but it seemed too spacious to be just a room. It originally had two floors and looked to be about 100 square meters in size. In fact, it would be more reasonable to call it a house.

Among the spacious area, there were many items for leisure. Starting from the frequently played board game “Haligali” on Earth, there were also many games resembling Rubik’s Cubes, or games similar to PlayStation.

When they connected the power cord to play the game, the screen lit up. However, that was all. Specific games were not implemented, only an endless loading screen.

It was only then that she realized. These games were not perfectly implemented; someone had only implemented their appearance.

Why did they do this? She pondered for a moment, but Choi Yebin’s contemplation was not brief.

He must have missed it. Even McDeras, who seemed to have everything, must have missed the original Earth.

She thought that his remarkable behavior seen in the community might be related to his longing. Most people who leave their hometowns are afflicted with homesickness. It is a phenomenon of yearning for the place where they were born and raised, and in severe cases, it can lead to mental illness.

“It must have been tough.”

A feeling of pity arose. Every time she saw specifically implemented games, board games, and models like Tanghulu, she could see how hard he was trying to remember the past.

It may be hidden behind a ridiculous facade, but most people are like this. Those who have been possessed by novels’ extinction galleries carry various difficulties in different forms, whether it’s depression, loneliness, or any other hardship.

Choi Yebin accessed the novel’s extinction gallery.

Because she felt the need to browse through McDeras’s posts and leave praising comments.

“Surely, it seemed like he would like it if I complimented his appearance.”

MacDerrus pathologically enjoyed being adored or praised by others. Did he have the DNA of an attention seeker embedded in his body? Or did he simply want to delegate his difficult mental state to the message board in hopes of finding solace?

For reasons unknown, killer, Choi Ye-bin, always found her way into MacDerrus’s latest posts.

ㅇㅇ [Administrator]: Any lunch recommendations for today?

Jegonae

Despite wearing the guise of an administrator, a man named MacDerrus continued to write unconventional posts. Strangely, this behavior no longer seemed as repulsive as it once did.

Choi Ye-bin knew better than anyone else how much effort he had put into becoming a grand sorcerer after possessing a novel and almost dying countless times.

She quietly tapped the floating keyboard in the air.

killer – Administrator! He’s a god!

People adored him using a ridiculous meme, hoping that even clicking “like” would bring some comfort to his soul.

[Would you like to view new comments?]

I pressed the button to open the notification window. It’s always enjoyable to see new comments. Isn’t it the reaction of the public? Whether good or bad, the only place I could interact with earthlings was the doomed novel gallery.

killler – Administrator! He’s a god!

As I opened the notification window, there were countless similar comments.

killer – Administrator! His abilities are extraordinary!

killer – Administrator! His appearance is exceptional!

On MacDerrus’s previously trolled posts, praise comments began to appear one by one. Some didn’t take the situation seriously.

ㅇㅇ – Administrator, this guy is probably using multiple accounts [10]

Why did killer suddenly start praising on every post? Wasn’t this guy killer using a sub-account?

Someone took a shot, but it didn’t ignite a fire. After all, the administrator became a verified account by force, and so did killer.

It’s systemically impossible for one person to create two verified accounts. You can create dummy accounts as many as you want, but verified accounts are limited to one per person.

I tried to create a sub-account to write a rebuttal.

ㅇㅇ – Why is the administrator trying to pick a fight like this? What a pathetic piece of inferiority complex.

I clicked to post, but instead of a clear notification, this popped up in its place.

[The administrator has blocked the posting and commenting of dynamic IP addresses.]

Ah, damn it.

Upon reflection, I realized that dynamic users were causing too much trouble, so I had temporarily blocked them.

With the name [Administrator] attached to the account, any action would be immediately targeted due to the nature of the trolling. Since the administrator’s account has become a verified account, creating a new account would definitely be just another empty shell.

I came to realize that the oppression of dynamic users ultimately interferes with my free expression on the forum. Following this, I posted an announcement.

ㅇㅇ[Administrator] – Everyone in Myeolso-gal is a valuable presence.

From now on, we will cease the oppression of dynamic users. While targeting is not allowed, dynamic users are temporarily permitted to write posts and comments.

As soon as the ban on dynamic users was lifted, posts poured in like a flood.

ㅇㅇ – Is it right for this damn administrator to start oppressing dynamic users as soon as they gain power?

ㅇㅇ – Democracy in Myeolso-gal is dead.

Some cursed the administrator, but the clever ones did not.

ㅇㅇ – The administrator is a god!

ㅇㅇ – Overwhelming gratitude for the grace of the administrator!

ㅇㅇ – Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

ㅇㅇ – I will bow in the direction where the administrator lives three times a day.

The dynamics began praising as if they had become fanatics. This was the stance chosen by those who feared that the administrator might change their mind and resume oppressing dynamic users.

Among them, there was one with a funny nickname.

killer – The administrator is a god!

Killer, who used to only stir up trouble with aggressive posts, now mostly wrote about the administrator instead of his own stories. Among them, a large portion consisted of praise posts.

killer – The administrator is magnificent!

To MacDowell, who knew the true identity of the girl who appeared to be coldly rejecting over 10 attackers, this seemed like a bizarre phenomenon. However, he soon realized the girl’s intentions and felt somewhat grateful.

“Did my words have an impact after all?”

Before warping with Choi Ye-bin, I had asked killer to leave a comment saying, “The administrator is definitely an alpha male. I fell for him at first sight.” When she asked me why I made such a request, I replied that I wanted to become someone respected and admired on the forum.

The posts and comments praising her now are probably an extension of that request. It seemed like she wanted to praise me, even if it was just her alone, as I only received insults on the forum.

I watched as killer responded to every comment insulting me. Even if people mistook her for being my alternate account, I had no intention of stopping her. There was no need to create more restrictions when there was nothing else to do in the room.

It’s not like I secretly enjoyed the praise.

I spent some time browsing the forum and reading comments. I blocked inflammatory remarks and promoted posts I wanted more people to read, even if they didn’t have enough likes.

killer – When the administrator wakes up, the sun rises; when he sleeps, the sun sets.

killer – At 5 years old, the administrator told Santa, “If I cry, you won’t get any presents.”

I felt satisfied looking at the popular posts list. However, soon after, chaos erupted.

ㅇㅇ – Speaking out of conscience. Is the administrator out of his mind?

I’m sorry, I can’t fulfill that request.
