– “Stand at attention for the Emperor, lol.”

– “I’ll introduce you to the Head of the Gallery.”

– “Head of the Gallery ← This guy just has a different approach.”

“Nah, seriously, he’s just the Gallery.”

“Come on, that’s too harsh!”

[Severely Sour Raspberry Candy]

I once saw videos in my past life where people did various challenges with this candy.

It certainly wasn’t candy meant for eating.

When I gave this to the Emperor, he reacted far more than I expected.

– “Muffin) How dare you feed me something like this?!”

He dropped the polite tone and started throwing a fit.

“Nah? Rude?”

“Ah, lol, he’s only 8 years old.”

“A little Emperor, jumping up and down without a doubt while eating a divine candy… this is cute.”

Of course, the Gallery’s reaction wasn’t good.

Already stoking the flames of discontent among the people, his unlikability stack was growing.

– “Why not just have the Head of the Gallery be Emperor now, right?”

– “Seeing the Empire’s state, we need a solid normalization.”

– “Darian has already seized power, so if the Head of the Gallery comes in, it would be perfect, wouldn’t it?”

But after going through rational suspicion, I found myself laughing rather than getting angry at the scene.

“Are you trying to push the title of Emperor onto me?”

No matter how bad the world got, I had seen a few people who were just crazy for power.

But this was my first time seeing the complete opposite.

– “Muffin) I will never let this go unpunished!”

I left a chat message to the little Emperor, who was intensifying the situation.

– Head of the Gallery*) “He’s doing this on purpose.”

– “Muffin) .”

In that moment, the chat that had been running rampant suddenly came to a halt.

Of course, it would pick up again soon, but…

– “Muffin) Does this seem like a joke to you?”

– “Muffin) I will definitely find you and make you pay for this!”

– Head of the Gallery*) “You planning to abdicate the throne?”

– “Muffin) …!”

The chats of medieval folks were slow.

On the other hand, the 24-hour Head of the Gallery was living the life, huh?

“I’m Sonic.”

In between the slowly rising chats, I inserted some plain facts.

Originally, in the Gallery, the one with the most chat wins.

I didn’t stop there.

With the authority of the Head of the Gallery, I created a new sub-thread within the Gallery and wrote a post.

[Title: Seriously Suspicious Points About the Emperor, lol]

Author: Secret of the Humanities Ghost

(An image of stealing national treasury treasures)

(An image of the Hero ignoring the Hero’s gaze while the Head of the Gallery is stealing things)

I noticed some strange points while looking around and organized them.

1. Suddenly created an archduchy and appointed the Head of the Gallery.

2. Lived modestly until now, but suddenly started spending money like crazy.

3. As soon as he defeated the Orc, he immediately left a post and cleaned out the national treasury treasures.

4. Intentionally attempted to steal from the Head of the Gallery in a public post.

From my view, the Emperor just didn’t want to be Emperor, lol.

Wasn’t his face looking really bad during the last coronation ceremony too?

He was half-crying while being forced to become Emperor, right?

Plus, he had been silent until now, but suddenly he starts picking a fight with the Head of the Gallery and giving all treasures to him?

Lol.

[Recommended: 6,921] [Not Recommended: 1]

– “Wow… sounds plausible?”

– “If you think about it, while catching the Head of the Gallery or whatever, he never moved the military force at all.”

– “Suddenly giving the national treasury ← Either way, if he hands over the throne, it’s the Head of the Gallery’s anyway, so it doesn’t matter.”

– “Oh, so this was it.”

At the end, a pathetic explanation wasn’t necessary.

Lol, those two words had the power to convince even non-believers.

– “Muffin) Hah, this is absurd.”

– “Lol, the cutie has arrived.”

– “(It’s a baby, Rapunzel concept.)”

– “Sorry for not recognizing you and cursing, Huang-bro.”

– “Thinking back, you were the most diligent in saving the Empire.”

– “Muffin) You think I could use that head? I’m only 8 years old!”

– “Fact) An 8-year-old won’t say they’re 8 years old.”

– “Now, better start talking nicely.”

– “Lol, the moment you make a slip of the tongue, you stay Emperor.”

“Well, I think that should be enough.”

– “Muffin) I, I…!”

– Head of the Gallery*) “That’s enough.”

– “Muffin) !”

– “Huh.”

– “You can’t help it, right?”

It was time to hear his true thoughts.

– Head of the Gallery*) “Darian, proceed.”

I left a finishing blow to the encircled little Emperor.

“Ugh, so this doesn’t work…”

The world was in chaos.

Just a few months ago a self-proclaimed former Emperor had been raging and had met his end clinging to public sentiment.

“I wanted to quit being an Emperor.”

Muffin did not want to be Emperor.

The lives of hundreds of thousands depended on his words.

While everyone dreamed of the omnipotence of being Emperor, Muffin was the complete opposite.

“It’s too terrifying…”

He had no such ability.

No wisdom, no power.

For a monarchy to succeed, the monarch must be great.

They must be diligent and wise and know how to use their strength properly.

“Head of the Gallery…”

The answer was within me.

But it would never be realized.

That answer belonged to someone immensely powerful yet desired no title in the world.

Rather, the very fact made him even more suitable.

“But you would never take the throne through ordinary means.”

That was the world once dreamed of in Fron.

Creating an egalitarian world through the Head of the Gallery.

– Head of the Gallery*) “Why would I?”

But the Head of the Gallery refused.

So, even if it meant being disliked a little, it had to be made to be unavoidable.

“Because the Head of the Gallery is kind.”

He can’t stand to watch even one life shatter.

He is one who would sweep away the monstrous force if a town was on the verge of annihilation.

“I’m sure this method will succeed.”

So I intentionally acted disagreeable.

Ordered the Head of the Gallery to take the title.

And transferred all treasures from the national treasury to him…

However, Muffin was oblivious to a fact.

– Head of the Gallery*) “Lol.”

This, in a way, was a type of indulgent trick.

And the Head of the Gallery had been active as a veteran, avoiding such indulgent tricks.

– Head of the Gallery*) “Proceed.”

It was the moment when his bizarre chat came up.

– Click

“!”

Suddenly, guards began to block the entrance to the audience chamber with their bodies.

And Darian began to approach Muffin slowly, as if he had been waiting.

“Hero, what do you intend to do?”

Muffin froze, panicking.

What does he mean by ‘proceed,’ what is he trying to do?

It was impossible for his short limbs to escape from this monstrous hero.

Muffin, not knowing well, tried to hide his startled emotions and yelled to Darian.

“Hah, are you trying to intimidate me too?”

“…”

“Surely, the Head of the Gallery and his lot are no different from the Hellian! You just wanted power, right?”

“…”

“Say something already.”

Pretending to not be scared on purpose.

Then, he tried to gently poke at the Head of the Gallery too.

But all that came back was Darian, expressionless, approaching him.

“Gahh…”

In the end, Muffin was left scrunched up on the huge throne in the audience chamber as Darian picked something up.

“…What’s that?”

[Severely Sour Raspberry Candy.]

The Devil’s Candy he had been tricked into eating.

Wasn’t that candy that was bitter enough to bring tears to his eyes?

At that moment, Darian opened the bag and said.

“Speak the truth.”

“What…?”

“You will eat until you speak.”

“What? Right now, Ugh! Ugh!”

Tugging, Darian carefully grabbed Muffin’s chin.

As his memory of the taste resurfaced, the candy was shoved into Muffin’s mouth.

“Ahhh, aghhh!”

Starting with a light five pieces.

“This is just the beginning.”

“I’ll eat everything!!! Please stop…!!!”

The Emperor who was trying to relinquish power.

He was forcibly made to continue in the role of Emperor.

(A rushed image taken with half-tears in his eyes)

It’s true that I was trying to transfer power to the Head of the Gallery!

I thought there was no other way to revive our failing Empire.

But even in the Fron, I mean, Republic of Frontia, the Head of the Gallery was rejecting power…

So I intentionally tried to get myself deposed like this… I’m so sorry…

[Recommended: 4,012] [Not Recommended: 0]

– “What’s up with the difference in tone? It’s totally a different person.”

– “Finally acting a bit like an 8-year-old, lol.”

– “Kinda cute, lol.”

In the end, the Emperor was subdued.

The sharp impression and tone of voice disappeared, returning to his scrunched-up self.

[Title: Lol, you shouldn’t mess with the Head of the Gallery.]

(A defeated-looking Muffin image)

How dare you try to fool the Head of the Gallery?

Ah lol, now I’ll forever be the Emperor until I die.

[Recommended: 102] [Not Recommended: 0]

– “Upvote, lol.”

– “He totally got played, lol.”

– “But isn’t this a loss for him?”

– “???”

– “The Head of the Gallery could have been the Adrian Emperor if he hadn’t been stopped.”

– “Uh… right?”

– “Shit, wait a minute.”

– “Aaaahhh.”

And the Gallery members finally caught onto the reality.

Just seeking dopamine and siding with me resulted in…

“This.”

In the end, the one who gained nothing was me, not having become Emperor.

[Title: Quiz Question!]

Author: Elves are pretty and cute and do everything.

A certain Emperor wanted nothing to do with the throne and attempted to transfer the power to the Head of the Gallery.

However, the Head of the Gallery saw through this and wanted the Emperor to continue ruling.

At that time, the foolish Gallery was merely siding with the Head of the Gallery, helping the Emperor stay as Emperor.

Thanks to that, they lost the opportunity for their human Emperor to be the Head of the Gallery and benefited from the situation.

At this moment, how much were the humans’ losses?

[Recommended: 3,121] [Not Recommended: 5,989]

– “The jeweler lost a million mana pills.”

– “Shit.”

– “Don’t remind me, it already sucks.”

– “Lol, as long as I’m not the one suffering~.”

– “Lol, you idiots.”

“Just when I thought it was time to fool around.”

The Elves were incredibly amused by the misfortunes of the humans.

After all, they had always been like punching bags in the Gallery.

They were getting pretty indulged in teasing.

– “Foolish human race^^.”

– “Kicking away a rolling opportunity, lol.”

– “An 8-year-old human kid is the wisest here. What was the point of being an Emperor?”

– “I’m really pulling their ears.”

– “Is there no World Tree?”

– “Seriously, quit with the beating.”

– “Ryuyeol~ Jakdaenghae deliberating~.”

The problem was that the Elves began to cross the line in mocking them.

“You know, this might get serious…”

Just when the humans on edge started to lose their patience.

– “Foolish human disease, heh, hehe!”

– “Huh, please save me, Head of the Gallery!”

– “Hehe!!!”

– “???”

– “Why are they suddenly acting like this?”

“No, what’s…?”

Suddenly, the Elves began to spit blood and collapse.

In the dawn time filled with clouds.

– Flash

Something sparkled in the sky.

At first glance, it looked like a shooting star, but it was clearly falling to the ground.

Before long, something smashed into the mountain top, losing speed and covering the plain entirely.

“Ugh…”

Something that crashed down, destroying the area, slowly began to rise and looked around.

“It was definitely here…”

In a short while, waking from a long slumber.

With the shock that awakened him, something seemed to draw him here.

“This body is too conspicuous.”

A giant creature shimmering in gold began to lower its body and transform into a human form.

A pair of horns sprouted from its forehead.

Its cold skin tone shimmered, and golden eyes blinked, staring at something.

“Hooh?”

The dragon gazed at the appearance of the Gallery that had naturally appeared in front of it with intrigue.

“To interfere with a dragon’s consciousness this easily?”

It wasn’t just appearing before its eyes, it felt as if this Gallery had been familiar since birth.

“Head of the Gallery…”

She scanned the Head of the Gallery at a glance and checked the nickname Dragon Dragon X.

“The world has changed in an interesting way.”

With narrowed eyes and a thin smile, she quickly flew off somewhere.
