Chapter 92

[102p gained.]

[150p gained.]

“Wow, what a legend.”

The effect of the Dragon who became the Deputy was incredible.

Felici pulling Dragon Dragon X as the Deputy was a divine move.

It was almost as if I had exploited a money duplication bug; points started rolling in.

– Is the Head of the Gallery asleep?

– Is this the right moment?

– Tactical nuclear strike incoming!

The only time that management would loosen was during the dawn hours.

Even then, Felici was keeping watch over the Gallery, her eyes wide open.

[User blocked for 10 days.]

[User blocked for 3 days.]

Wait, are they active even at this hour?

Damn, where am I supposed to release my stress then?

Why are you releasing your stress with naked Orc adult jokes?

Orc nudes, Goblin intersection memes, and even waste slime disassembly analysis memes.

How much pain have the Deputies suffered?

But no tactical nuclear strike could shake the Dragon’s mentality.

– Interesting. Do humans take such memes as a part of their preferences?

No, of course not!

Please, just wipe those sickos out for me!

(Praise! Elf Con)

Normalization of the Gallery during the early morning hours.

Thanks to that, the point influx increased by about 1.3 times!

Moreover, Felici received the highest floor of the Colorful Magic Tower from Kellierhton.

Having a residence meant she could throw herself into Gallery activities day and night.

[Administrator Chat]

Dragon Dragon X: Hmm, it seems like no matter how much we delete, it never ends.

Dragon Dragon X: I’m genuinely worried that someone among us might be slacking off.

Dragon Dragon X: Isn’t that right, Blue Elf Administrator? 🙂

Full-Peel Elf: Heeek!

Plus, they even managed to enforce discipline on Full-Peel Elf.

As a result, Full-Peel Elf also started managing, increasing the efficiency to about 1.4 times.

Head of the Gallery*: How are you managing so quickly?

Dragon Dragon X: I feel like that’s not something you should say… We can accelerate the incidents.

Dragon Dragon X: Managing a group monologue from humans is a piece of cake.

“Dragon, dragon, dragon…”

With the unique buff of dragons, managing at least a hundred people was possible.

Dragon Dragon X: So, what do you think?

Head of the Gallery*: (A cat icon giving a thumbs up while crying)

Dragon Dragon X: Bestowing a suitable reward on a competent subordinate is the virtue of a Queen. 🙂

Sometimes they chat with me asking for a reward, but that’s simple enough.

[Royal Rose Tea Time Set] – 200p

[Earl Grey 2g, 100 bags] – 15p

Dragon Dragon X: You never fail to meet my expectations.^^

Felici seems very satisfied with just a tiny portion of the points she brought in.

Indeed, she was the ultimate value-for-money Deputy.

“But why am I the Queen?”

I understood that since I was the Head of the Gallery, I was technically a subordinate, but what’s this about being a Queen?

Head of the Gallery*: Why am I a Queen? I’m a dude!

Dragon Dragon X: Hmm? Do you think I’d be that hard of hearing?

Dragon Dragon X: Half-Elf Great Magician Smiling Girl?

Dragon Dragon X: I even saw your statue in the plaza. Quite a beauty, you know? 🙂

“No, what the hell.”

Of course, there was a bit of misunderstanding, but the Deputy pull was successfully wrapped up.

In the future, Felici would continue to earn points as my capable blue slave, the Deputy.

Especially since she was quite friendly to me, it felt like I had gained a strong ally.

And above all, Felici didn’t dislike being the Deputy.

In fact, she seemed to think of receiving the title as a gift of sorts.

Dragon Dragon X: Since you’ve been bestowed the title of Deputy, you must be looking for a way to repay it. Is there anything you desire?

A few days later, Felici suddenly said she wanted to send me a present.

“A present?”

I didn’t need anything like that.

Most of all, I already had more than enough gifts piling up in the storage room.

Just as I was about to reply that it was unnecessary.

“Wait a minute.”

A certain thought flashed through my mind.

No matter how naive she seemed, Felici was still a Dragon.

She wouldn’t have any issue with some common spells.

“If that’s the case…”

Head of the Gallery*: Can you possibly teleport me?

*

At first, it was okay.

Even though I’d been surveilled, imprisoned, and kidnapped, I thought it was still better than the Rabbit Hole.

But as time passed, I could feel the obsession of the Vampire growing stronger.

With her increasingly intense gaze and the frequency of blood-sucking rising…

‘At this rate, it’ll be quicker to just die from being drained of blood.’

My aim was to keep living as the Head of the Gallery, doing Gallery activities until I naturally pass away.

Naturally, I had no intention of dying as a mummy from being drained by the Deputy Vampire.

What’s more, even the function of the Deputy who had been pretty capable had started to be neglected since she started being with me.

“It’s about time I return home.”

It was time to head back.

[Administrator Detailed Information]

[ip – 1.20.2]

“I’ve found it.”

The first thing I did was check my IP address.

The IP had its own meaning.

Even in modern times, basic info like the service provider could be figured out through the IP.

Of course, in modern times, users can easily hide their location if they want to…

“Not here.”

To the eyes of me, the Head of the Gallery, the IP had to be honest.

After analyzing everything since I possessed this body, the first number, 1, represented my race.

20 seemed to be the approximate location when the other world map is divided by n.

And the last digit 2 was actually…!

“I have no idea.”

I really had no clue.

But just knowing the middle number 20 was enough.

It meant the Abandoned Castle where the Vampire was initially found was the same as where I was staying now.

And it confirmed that the location hadn’t shifted.

Dragon Dragon X: Did you say teleportation? Of course, I can do that. Just tell me the location.

“Glad to hear that.”

Then the matter became speedy.

I immediately left a message for Felici.

Head of the Gallery*: There’s an Abandoned Castle somewhere in Kellierhton. It’s right in the center, ok?

Dragon Dragon X: What’s the destination?

Head of the Gallery*: Random spawn in Kellierhton.

I set a vague destination anywhere in Kellierhton to avoid specifics.

Now, all that was left was to head to the center of the Abandoned Castle.

Having stayed there for about a month, I had memorized how it looked.

With the Vampire out for a moment, I stepped out of the room and walked into the garden.

“Right about the center should be around here…”

I arrived near the fountain in the garden.

Dragon Dragon X: Are you ready?

Head of the Gallery*: Let’s go!

After confirming the location several times, I replied to Felici.

Everything was perfect.

“Head of the Gallery? Why are you there?”

Until I ran into the Vampire.

It seemed she had already returned from her outing.

Feeling a cold sweat break out as I saw the Vampire tilting her head.

“Are you taking another walk?”

“The garden is surprisingly to my liking.”

“Let’s go back now; it’s cold.”

“Um, that won’t do.”

If the Vampire came close to me like this, I would end up being sent back to Kellierhton.

And the Vampire was really getting closer to me.

I couldn’t think of any reason to stop her, and my head began to go blank.

What if it gets found out that I was trying to escape?

‘Then I’ll really die from being drained.’

Though I wasn’t sure, it seemed like her obsession gradually thickened the more time we spent together.

“St-stop!”

I held up my hand firmly and shouted.

Fortunately, the Vampire halted in place, adhering to the universal rule.

“Why, why?”

“Absolutely do not move from that spot!”

The combo of “absolutely” and “stop.”

At the precise moment the Vampire looked startled, her eyes wide like a bunny.

– Whoosh!

“Ah…! Head of the Gallery, you!”

In an instant, my surroundings illuminated brightly, a warm light flooding my vision.

Do you know what this is? Although the Vampire lunged at me…

“Gah!”

Fortunately, I succeeded.

When I opened my eyes again, I found myself in a back alley in Kellierhton.

“Yes!”

Operation Season 12 – Escape from the Abandoned Castle.

Finally, I had successfully returned home.

And as I turned my head, I was able to spot my trusty Sword that had followed me here!

“You made it out too.”

Fortunately, it seemed the Sword also sensed the timing right and succeeded in escaping.

Filled with joy, I grabbed the Sword and realized.

“Wait a minute, where’s the Holy Sword?”

*

“I bought Melona.”

Actually, that wasn’t true.

When I opened the underground storage door in this familiar alley, the dazzling bunker interior revealed itself.

Taking in the familiar home smell, I let out a blissful sigh.

“Home is the best…”

As for the Holy Sword… well, it’ll probably survive in the Abandoned Castle just fine.

Putting my worries about the Holy Sword aside, I entered my room, where something was wriggling under the blankets.

“What’s this?”

Lifting the blanket to check, I found Penny curled up, lost in slumber.

I promptly snatched Penny and began to ruffle her hair.

“Ah! Who, who are you? Malfight?”

“I just experienced so much. It was tough!”

“You’re back!”

Despite her face and hair being a mess, Penny sat up gleefully.

Thankfully, it seemed Penny had taken care of herself well at home.

No, perhaps she had an even happier time.

She must’ve eaten everything I sent, as her complexion appeared even healthier than before.

“Here, take this.”

[Strawberry Milk Cake] – 38p

No Melona, but I do have cake.

I handed her a cake as a token of appreciation for her hard work since she liked strawberries.

“Yay!”

Returning home felt satisfying.

But before I completely relaxed, there was something I had to do.

The expression of the Vampire I had encountered just before the teleportation still lingered in my memory.

I first checked if there were any notifications from the Gallery.

“Surprisingly, nothing much, right?”

But there were no messages from the Vampire.

No new posts or chats either.

[Administrator Chat]

곧죽어도흡혈: It’s you, Lizard, right?

Dragon Dragon X: (Do I care? The Dragon icon shrugs its wings)

All that was left was that brief chat with Felici.

“Sigh, nothing major should have happened, right?”

It felt ominous, but we hadn’t had any serious arguments.

So I was about to dive into bed, trying to divert my attention when—

– Boom!

“What?!”

With a tremendous sound, the bunker shook violently!
