I Became the Head of Returners Gallery

It felt like something snapped in my head. I knew Yoon Sena could kill me with a single spell, but I had to shout. Otherwise, I felt like I would literally lose my mind. “Get ouuuuut─!” “I’m sorry, Manager!” When I shouted, she flew over and grabbed my leg. “Please, I haven’t slept for three days…” “It hasn’t even been 3 minutes since you came to my world?” “I don’t know! The time flow must be different!” Somehow she knew which leg to grab, whining while avoiding my broken leg. Tears had already formed in her eyes. “I won’t brag falsely anymore! I, I… wrote an a-apology post! I’ll pay rent! I’ll give you whatever you want!” It felt strange to see someone who had been so boldly bragging in the gallery now being so servile. Maybe I should move without telling Cheon No-ran and Yoon Sena. But I quickly shook my head. ‘People who can cross worlds to find my house wouldn’t have trouble finding a new one.’ If I moved and got caught, they might imprison me with the excuse of protecting me forever. “So what can you offer me?” “R-rent of ten thousand points per month and…” “Let’s make it twenty thousand.” “Umm… also… security services?” Yoon Sena’s eyes sparkled, but I firmly shook my head. With Cheon No-ran, who was stronger than her, already living in my house, I didn’t need additional security personnel. “Th-then how about an S-class skill? You’ll be able to protect yourself even without me or the Chinese character nickname!” “Deal.” I finally nodded. Having heard Cheon No-ran say that when in danger, you can only trust your own body, and not knowing when TranscendentWeb might come to kill me, I needed this. I needed basic combat power to browse the gallery safely. ‘What a dirty world where I need an S-class skill just to browse the gallery in peace…’ Anyway, even though the martial arts devotee Cheon No-ran would be horrified, it was better than having no skills at all. “Hmm, then I’ll do a basic skill compatibility test… S-class Tower Climbers like me can get a rough estimate just by holding hands!” “And I have a question.” “Ask me anything!” “Why are these fixed nicknames so dissatisfied?” I picked up my phone and showed her the gallery screen.

“This even became a top post… Did I do something wrong?” “Well…” I couldn’t understand why people would miss a fantasy world with backward technology rather than being returnees. If it were me, I’d want to forget primitive fantasy or martial arts worlds as soon as I returned. Unless I had been transmigrated and experienced a power fantasy, I wouldn’t even want to look back. “Yoon Sena, you said you returned from Fantasia, right? Why do they miss that place?” Yoon Sena read the post for a while, then pointed at the fixed nickname of the author. Specifically, she pointed at the return route showing which world they came from and which world they returned to. From Romantic Fantasia to Earth. It just had ‘Romantic’ attached to Fantasia? “Look at this. The world she went to is Romantic Fantasia.” “What about Romantic Fantasia? Is it a harem world? Don’t tell me she brought… girlfriends? How am I supposed to solve that?” She shook her head at my reasonable conjecture. “Don’t you know romance fantasy?” “I don’t read that romantic fantasy stuff that period-having girls read.” Yoon Sena glanced at me as if I was ridiculous, then explained about the world called ‘Romantic Fantasia.’ Usually, those who return from Romantic Fantasia worlds were transmigrated into noble families, and after experiencing servants cleaning their rooms and bathing them as nobles, they find modern life inconvenient upon return—that was her guess. “So these guys miss the class system? That’s absurd. What, should I give them a moderator badge?” “Or maybe they’re just jealous because you only give things that fantasy or martial arts world people like.” “That’s it!” I finally understood why returnees living in the modern world were angry. It hurts when your cousin buys land. How much more would it hurt to see someone in the same gallery happy about getting a spare phone, especially when they’re not even family? “Anyway, so Romantic Fantasia is a world that follows romance fantasy clichés?” “That’s right. It was originally Fantasia, but the former manager created a separate classification.” What a life as a manager, having to read romance fantasy to understand gallery public opinion. Would such gallery browsing be happy? I needed to conscript a file manager who knows female-oriented content well for my happy gallery browsing. I seriously asked Yoon Sena: “Do you want to be the file manager?” “M-me…?” “I guess there’s no one who wants to wear a moderator badge.” “I-I’ll do it! But I think everyone will hate me because I’m a bragger…” “Close your eyes for a moment.” “O-okay…” She closed her eyes. “Now open them.” [Returnee Gallery] [Manager(Judak): GoldSpoonHikikomori] [Assistant Manager(Padak): 1. (Former)KingOfKingsS-classHunter 2. (Vacant) 3.(Vacant)] I showed Yoon Sena the Returnee Gallery screen on my smartphone. “Hiiiieeek!” “You’re now the file manager.” I gave a gentle smile to the startled Yoon Sena. Ah… this is the weight of power. “You don’t have to do housework, just go catch trolls. You can use that room over there.” “Okay…” She walked to the room I pointed at, looking like a deflated dried fish. ‘She doesn’t know how good being a file manager is…’ “Now let’s try this.” I took out the card I received for resolving Yoon Sena’s distress. [TranscendentWeb Entry Code: goldenspoonhiki01] I’m going to catch the former manager.

Good. I’ll write a wanted post for the former manager right away. I clicked the [Write] button in the upper left corner of the screen. [Your current rank is ‘Somewhat Useful Bug (Associate Member)’!] [To level up to ‘Low-rank Member’, please use the level-up board.] [Low-rank Member level-up requirements: Proof of deity status, proof of immortality] I couldn’t help but be speechless seeing the level-up requirements. A community that calls associate members ‘Somewhat Useful Bugs.’ It was clear how much this community was obsessed with transcendent superiority. Is this what happens to all transcendent beings? Also, the status of the last post was concerning. It was probably a post by that steaming streamer… Morax. ‘Let’s see what garbage he’s written.’

‘If I could only write comments, I would at least leave a comment burn.’

I tried pressing the comment button several times, but the response was… [Bugs should be honored just to be able to enter TranscendentWeb.] —that kind of content. To borrow Morax’s words, I can’t stand this genital-like community either. And why is Yoon Sena my woman. Do transcendent beings have a different concept of dating than normal people? “Fucking transcendent bastards.” But as both a victim of the former manager and the current manager, I had a responsibility to capture her and make her kneel before the gallery users. No, I wanted to do that too. If she handed over the Returnee Gallery manager position to someone who wasn’t even a returnee and abandoned the gallery, she should at least apologize. I endured the disgust flowing from TranscendentWeb and entered ‘GoddessOfReturn’ in the search box. But the answer that came back was the same as when I pressed the comment button. [Bugs should be honored just to be able to enter TranscendentWeb.] “Argh, these bastards!”
