– Farewell, the strongest.

(Broken underground warehouse meme)

(Kitchen adjacent refrigerator meme)

Refrigerator.

I am grateful to you.

– (Chimpanzee touching head meme)

– Ugh~

– Calligraphy master

– Damn, I shouldn’t have doubted

– I should have just gone when I had the chance!!!

Fact: It took a day for the refrigerator to sell out. Gallery users had a total of 1440 minutes of opportunity.

Damn.

The neighbor proudly offered me a cold cola… I seriously wanted to die.

[Title: LOL Just Met My Enemy and Kicked Their Ass) Proof meme here]

(Meme of hitting oneself)

(Meme of jumping headfirst into bed)

Screw! You little! Bastard!!!!!

– ?????

– Why is this guy acting like this?

– Is he seriously not buying a refrigerator? LOL

– I seriously can’t forgive myself

Fact: I had never felt this dumb and self-loathing before.

Why did I doubt the items that Head of the Gallery put up? Seriously, ugh, it’s infuriating.

Today, the Gallery was overflowing with insults and bloodshed.

The reason? It was because of the refrigerator, which had sold out a total of 100 units in just 24 hours.

By 23:50, 15 were sold, and after reviews started popping up, 85 were sold in just 10 minutes.

That happened before the reviews could even become recognized posts.

– Please, Head of the Gallery, release more stock!

– I, I have lived without asking for much, but please, just this once, sell it to me…

– Wow, I seriously can’t forgive myself.

– (It’s an elf! Head meme)

– (It’s an elf! Upper body meme)

* (I dealt with the disruption. Thief meme)

– (It’s an elf! Leg meme)

– Are you losing it?

Thanks to this, there were many Gallums looking for me.

Even posts bordering on begging, not curses.

“Oh, I didn’t want to sell any more.”

My heart wavered.

So, I added precisely 100 more units to the marketplace.

At that moment, the Gallery, which had been filled with despair, momentarily became lively.

– It’s a frenzy!

– Head of the Gallery! Head of the Gallery! Head of the Gallery! Head of the Gallery!

– What’s the difference between Head of the Gallery and sax?

[Title: Shareholders Meeting.jpg]

(Imaginary image of Head of the Gallery)

(Left hand meme of Head of the Gallery) (Symmetrical left hand meme)

(Left foot meme of Head of the Gallery) (Symmetrical left foot meme)

Shareholders meeting = Means countless Head of the Gallery members come together to make wonderful decisions.

Since there is only one Head of the Gallery, this cannot happen.

In other words, it encapsulates such great and remarkable decisions.

(Unboxing meme of the refrigerator)

I believe in the Shareholders meeting.

– Head!

– Damn, I’ve seen the Shareholders meeting; I must worship…

– LOL, what have you made them into, a chimera? LOL

– It’s not funny, so write it down.

* Didn’t you not get the refrigerator? LOL

* Hahahaha, thanks for the dopamine recharge!

* (Refrigerator meme)

* (Thumbs up Head of the Gallery hand meme)

And I stopped precisely here.

“Stop the sales!”

The refrigerator consumes a lot of Mana Stones.

This is solely to increase Mana Stone consumption, thereby boosting production output.

I’m not trying to dominate the world with refrigerators.

If I lose out because I don’t have Mana Stones when I need them, that would be the worst.

– I’m buying a refrigerator.

* Proposal.

* How about 5,000?

* I only accept starting from 50,000, sorry.

* ?? Damn, is that a reasonable price?

The selling price of the refrigerator that was 500 skyrocketed to an astonishing 50,000.

Of course, all trades within the Gallery were restricted, but the black market outside could not be stopped.

So naturally, the refrigerator became a special item, the property of nobles.

– Any cultured noble should own at least one refrigerator in their mansion.

– Without a refrigerator, you’d be excluded from social gatherings.

The existence of a refrigerator became the cutoff for Adrian noble society.

“Having a refrigerator truly makes a difference in life.”

Of course, I benefited from it as well.

I had already filled the refrigerator in my room.

It wasn’t the kind sold at the marketplace.

I splurged on a four-door refrigerator that I could never have dreamed of in my past life.

Although the inside was mostly filled with pizza and triangular rice balls, perfect for snacking in the Gallery.

– But why are the dwarves so quiet?

* Seriously, I thought they’d be spamming the Gallery with posts by now.

* Didn’t the dwarves always study how to chill beer?

At that moment, a question struck me.

Why are the dwarves quiet?

The dwarves were always hot from mining.

For them, cold beer must be the ultimate drink compared to anything else.

– Head of the Gallery, where did you go?

Out of curiosity, I left a note, and finally, one of the dwarves replied.

* Taldru) Oh, brother. Are you looking for us?

* Head of the Gallery) I thought you’d be the first to welcome the refrigerator, but surprisingly quiet.

* Seriously.

* Don’t go telling anyone that you like beer.

* Beer addict, LOL.

* Taldru) If you don’t want to kiss the floor, shut up and listen to me.

* Yikes, okay.

* Holy smokes.

* Taldru) The reason we haven’t posted…

[Title: Kilgroth]

Author: Taldru

(Refrigerator nationalization document)

(70 refrigerators in the royal castle meme)

(A party with alcohol happening all over the royal castle meme)

We were too busy drinking and unable to post.

From yesterday to today, we’ve been brimming with alcohol from using the refrigerator nonstop.

Our king declared the nationalization of refrigerators today.

At the same time, he instituted yesterday as a public holiday.

It couldn’t be helped.

Yesterday, after tasting cold beer, the dwarves went mad and abandoned their duties for drinking.

Of course, the festivities are still ongoing.

(Meme of dwarves sprawled out around a refrigerator, drinking beer)

(Kilgroth’s bottom floor beer cellar)

We dedicated our lives to lowering the temperature of beer.

But all we could do was make it cold.

Then came the Great War, and the project was completely abandoned; we couldn’t even drink beer.

Do you understand this?

Head of the Gallery, you’ve helped us achieve our goal of beer and our kind.

So, the king is currently in discussions with warriors.

About whether to confer a title upon you.

[Recommended 9999+] [Not Recommended 152]

– What???

– Are they seriously going to grant a title?

* For real, don’t they give citizenship only to dwarves?

* Do they really think Head of the Gallery is a dwarf?

* Taldru) Whether or not that’s the case doesn’t matter. It’s already a topic of consideration whether to include it in biography.

– Head of the Gallery*) Oh, thank you, thank you!

* Look at how nonchalant this is, LOL.

* React bigger!

The dwarves had not gone anywhere.

They were just so lost in savoring the taste of cold beer that they hadn’t left the refrigerator’s side.

I knew they liked beer, but I never expected it to this extent.

To the point of granting a title.

“Of course, I have no intention of accepting it.”

Still, I was a bit curious, so I subtly asked Taldru.

– Head of the Gallery*) I appreciate it, but what title do you give?

* Taldru) Right now, the most likely candidate is Gertrude.

– Head of the Gallery*) What is that?

* Taldru) The Highest Manager of the Kilgroth Liquor.

* Whoa; legendary.

* Wait, they’re actually giving this to me?

* Seems like they are serious.

Taldru’s comment stirred up a strange response in the Gallery.

“What is it? Let’s get to the point.”

As I was puzzled, Taldru kindly explained.

* Taldru) Just think of it as a position right below the king.

* Taldru) It’s been an empty seat with a name that no one has ever occupied before.

Head of the Gallery) What? Are you taking it?

* Taldru) Haha, I look forward to your continued support.

The title that the dwarves were willing to confer upon me was even more, significantly higher than I had anticipated.

“You are worthy.”

Inside the desolate abandoned castle.

A glass-like voice resonated in the audience chamber.

“You may sit.”

Erzebet, who elegantly sipped cola and tomato juice, glanced at the refrigerator beside the throne.

– Ding

“Yeah… Don’t hold back.”

The artificial life created by the transcendent being and great magician, Head of the Gallery.

If being bold meant ignorance, that would be foolishness.

But it was bold, capable, and did not neglect its duties.

– Ice has been completed.

“Quick-witted, I like that.”

Erzebet filled an antique wine goblet with ice and poured in cola.

Two glasses in total.

One was the “cold cola with ice” made by her own hands.

Erzebet specially offered it to the refrigerator.

“How unfortunate. It would have been nice to celebrate together.”

It was regrettable that the refrigerator lacked a consumption function.

Erzebet was incredibly pleased with the current situation.

The curse was slowly fading.

Although speaking a complete sentence was still a work in progress, this was already something to be proud of.

She lightly toasted the occasion of meeting the refrigerator.

– Sizzle

The boiling black water gracefully flowed down Erzebet’s throat.

“Ahhh!”

An astonishing taste, no matter when she drank it.

Since learning this taste, Erzebet could not possibly fall asleep like before.

In fact, it could even be considered a stroke of luck.

She felt grateful towards the adventurers who had succumbed to sleep in an effort to suppress the curse.

She needed someone to share this joy with.

I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire: Head of the Gallery

Head of the Gallery*: Huh?

I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire: Let’s have a drink.

I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire: (Ice Cola meme)

Of course, that someone was always Head of the Gallery.

The one who always answered whether in boredom or loneliness.

This was something the refrigerator could never replace.

Head of the Gallery*: ?

I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire: Or I could come find you.

I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire: Cheers?

Head of the Gallery*: (Ice Cola meme)

Head of the Gallery*: To celebrate something I don’t know, but our Gallery and I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire!!!!!

I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire: Cheers.

Head of the Gallery*: Cheers!!!!!

With that, I officially received Head of the Gallery’s congratulations.

Now, the refrigerator has proudly been acknowledged as part of the abandoned castle.

“…A bit disappointing.”

I cheekily requested a direct meeting, but to my dismay, it was coldly rejected.

But someday.

Someday, as I keep going, won’t I be granted permission?

“Just like back then.”

Becoming an immortal unwillingly.

Falling to an unwanted curse.

Approaching someone who shunned and avoided me, proposing a collaboration back then.

As Erzebet sipped her cola, a faint blush…

Wouldn’t reflect on her face. After all, being the castle’s owner and having pale skin ensured that her complexion didn’t change much.

However, she was feeling lighthearted as she continued to explore the Gallery.

(4.444.404) Wow, so this is the Gallery.

“…What’s that?”

An unusual intruder was entering the Gallery.
