53. Galju.

[I like this article. So, let’s inject mana into the green thumb you see here.]

I slightly conjured up some mana and injected it into my green thumb.

Sigh.

Then the change occurred.

Surprisingly, the green thumb shape was darker than before. Should I say it glows a brighter green?

And that phenomenon was the same for everyone who had magic paper.

“What, what is it?”

“It’s brighter than before!”

I smiled happily as I looked at the people’s surprise. I really put a lot of effort into making this.

[Everyone, try injecting mana into the writings of the greatest genius like me.]

People immediately started injecting mana at my words.

Most students attending the academy knew how to use mana. No matter how dull I was, I knew how to use mana in my second year. So there was no need to worry.

Soon the green mark (?) began to glow brightly.

And the brightness gradually increased.

Woe!

It was nothing compared to when I first injected mana.

“Oh! what? The magic bell shines!”

“Ah, it’s beautiful…!”

“Adding a feature like this…!”

Everyone was mesmerized and looked at the brightly shining magic paper.

Perhaps because we received so many recommendations, the entire gym glowed green. It felt like I was at a concert waving green light sticks.

“Ahh…! What I wrote…!!”

Naturally, Pierre looked very moved. Anyone who sees it will think that at least the third awakening has been achieved.

Anyway, I opened my mouth to look at the surprised people.

[As you can see, by injecting mana, you can mark the desired article as a recommendation. Conversely, if you don’t like the text, you can inject mana into the red thumb shape.]

“Wow… It’s really amazing.”

“How did they make this?”

“Is Galju a god?”

Everyone made faces of disbelief. He seemed even more surprised than when he changed the color of his nickname earlier.

[Ah, instead, this can only be used once per magic paper. So, use it sparingly.]

“Ah…”

I put a lot of effort into preventing one person from indiscriminately recommending or not recommending something.

As a result, the number of recommendations per magic paper was fixed at one.

Once mana was received, the recommendation function linked to the magic paper disappeared.

‘This may not be able to stop everything, but it may be able to prevent abuse of recommendations and non-recommendations to some extent.’

Anyway, these were the only features added to the community.

However, this could be seen as a cataclysmic level update. The impact will be even greater, especially for medieval people.

People were already checking the color of their nicknames. At the same time, I used the recommend/not recommend feature indiscriminately. It was because it was so amazing.

I looked at that with satisfaction. From a developer(?) perspective, it was a really nice sight to see.

At that time, several people started shouting loudly.

“Long live Galju!!”

“Thank you, Galju!!”

“It’s really the best!!”

It was an expression of gratitude to me.

Then the rest of the people also started shouting loudly.

“Please add these great features…!! Thank you so much!!”

“From now on, I will be loyal to Galju for the rest of my life!”

“I love you, Galju!”

Soon the gym was filled with shouts of gratitude. Most of the people shouted loudly and thanked me.

And it wasn’t just words.

‘My back…!’

I started to feel a tingling sensation in my back.

It felt like I had been waiting forever.

‘The battle against all people is getting stronger…!’

I felt like my special ability, Unrivaled Battle, was strengthened. Plus, it was more intense than usual.

‘If this is enough…!’

It seemed like more students than I expected came to worship me.

‘Is this enough for more than 10 people?’

They will all be engraved in my exhibition. This will make my strength stronger.

I already felt some vitality welling up in my body.

The true power could only be seen when one took out the Manjinjeon himself. But I got a general feeling.

‘I feel quite stronger than before.’

Of course, compared to the hero, he was still far away. But if we continue to develop in this way, we will eventually catch up with him.

I smiled very satisfied. It was a bright smile that is rarely seen normally.

Maybe it was the sound they made praising me.

Long live Galju!

Long live the mercenary king-!!

Or maybe it’s because of the warrior looking at me with gritted teeth?

“Wow…!! Jace Allen…!!”

***

In the reopened community, I could only see posts praising me.

Originally, people had to experience loss to realize the value of what they had. And this was just such a case.

Of course, they couldn’t help but praise me even more. Not only did they reopen the community, they even updated it.

Until now, it was like that.

-(Strongest Genius): At that time, did everyone see the number of recommendations I received? Probably no one will surpass that in the future?

-(Academy’s Most Beautiful Woman): I think it’s all thanks to Galjoo.

-(Strongest Genius): Of course! I have come to respect Galju even more!!

-(Manana is my friend): Hmm, I still don’t understand. How did they create that magic? Could it be that the Mercenary King is an archmage?

-(Real Maximillian): That’s not important right now!! Finally, the fake guy who was harassing me is gone!! Hahahaha!!

-(Raven’s Stone Fist): Are you sure you are my second rival? Gallju. That’s amazing.

Everyone told my story with admiration. That’s how great it seemed to them that this update was.

By the way, the brightly shining green tabong mark was seen quite often in the writings of the strongest genius.

People even gave ordinary posts a mark.

I felt like I grew a step further after going through this.

Oh, I wasn’t talking about personality growth.

It was said that the status within the community had risen.

Should I say that it has become a named among named names?

‘Well, I really had a hard time this time.’

Pierre Baumann could now be seen as my number two subordinate. To that extent, he showed his loyalty to me.

Ah, number 1 was Robin the thief. Even now, he was diligently cultivating magic tobacco. Perhaps, we will be able to see magic cigarettes around the second semester.

Anyway, he looked quite happy.

I started posting to the community with a satisfied look on my face. It was to enjoy a hobby for the first time in a long time.

Soon, a green glowing Trickster nickname appeared.

-(Trickster): Does everyone seem to like this update?

Immediately, the writing began to flow. It was incredible speed.

-(Strongest Genius): Oh! Is the pioneer here?

-(Academy’s Most Beautiful Woman): Are you here?! long time no see!

-(Raven’s Stone Fist): Haha! Is my real rival here?

-(Manana is my friend): Pioneer, take a look too. Isn’t it a very amazing magic? How did you come up with this idea?

-(Real Maximillian): Is my comrade here? You’ve had a hard time because of fake people, right? haha! This is all thanks to me urging the mercenary king. I know you appreciate it!

It seemed like everyone was waiting for me.

And soon a strange phenomenon occurred.

Gradually, the tag mark began to shine brightly on my writing. It also started to get very bright.

It seemed like a lot of people were pressing the recommendation button.

‘what? What is this recommended speed?’

-(Academy’s Most Beautiful Woman): As expected, she is a pioneer. Look at the recommended speed.

-(Strongest Genius): Hmm, no matter what, you won’t be able to break my record?

-(Raven’s Stone Fist): Why is it that no one recommends my posts?

-(I love you mercenary king): Wow! This is my first time seeing a recommendation this quick!

Everyone thought the brightly shining magic paper was amazing. Articles were being added quickly.

‘I guess the true name is still Trickster?’

This time, the strongest genius came to mind a lot. But it still seemed like it wasn’t up to the Trickster’s reputation.

It was a very enjoyable sight for me, who is a bit(?) a bit of a fanatic.

I kept writing. First of all, I said a quick hello(?).

As for our greetings, it was also a story of criticizing the warrior.

Even though I knew, I just asked a question.

-(Trickster): Can’t you see any dragons these days?

-(Academy’s Most Beautiful Woman): These days, even if I show off that I’m brave, I get a lot of criticism. That’s why everyone hid?

Through this incident, the influence of the dragons has been greatly reduced. This was because the warrior’s reputation in all communities had plummeted.

People still thought the hero was an impersonator. It was because I didn’t necessarily catch the culprit.

‘It’s a pretty good choice for the hero to remain an impersonator like this.’

Thanks to this, the warrior will go crazy. It was as if he continued to be falsely accused. If it were me, I would go crazy and jump up and down.

So is that so?

Unlike before, the warrior showed himself to be more immersed in the community. It seemed like that’s what people become when they feel too unfair.

-(Strongest Genius): But that disgusting guy, Captain Dragon, is still active?

-(Bermin Hipster): Who is the dragon leader? And, as I have said many times, the hero is not an impersonator!

As soon as the story about the hero came up, I could tell just by looking at it.

I made a satisfied face at that sight.

‘The hero is addicted to the community.’

If you just stay in the community like you are now, further development will be difficult. Perhaps it would be best to maintain the current status quo?

‘While the hero stands still, he must develop quickly.’

Of course, I still needed some time off. Like now.

-(Academy’s Most Beautiful Woman): Ugh, that’s disgusting.

-(Fish Warrior): Wouldn’t he be embarrassed?

-(Manana is my friend): You look a little pitiful now.

Of course, watching a warrior get criticized was the best. Everyone wrote quickly and cursed the hero.

Moreover, the text written by the warrior began to turn red in an instant. I received a huge bombshell.

‘I added the recommend and dislike features just to watch this.’

I felt like all the stress that had built up over time was being released.

I nodded with a satisfied face. It was great to update.

It was then.

I saw something unexpected.
