NOVEL NEXT chapter 35
35 – Galaxy Funeral Gallery
What kind of place is a gallery?
It’s a place filled with all kinds of slander, lies, distortions, incitement, fabrications, and more.
It’s a place where fake information proliferates to the point that even Gebells gave up.
Does a place that holds pure truth even exist?
It is a gallery mixed with 90% fake and 10% truth.
The news of Juttak’s death seemed like a lie to someone.
Title: “Stop Spreading Lies”
Why did Juttak die? LOL
Maybe this is just a prank, and he’s hiding for a while, LOL
ㅇㅋㅋ, you’re tricked again, LOL
ㅇI know he disappeared because he messed with the gallery, LOL
ㅇWhat’s the reason for Juttak suddenly dying? LOL
ㅇCan’t you start showing up again bit by bit…?
ㅇSo, please come back quickly and help me recover my stocks!!!!!!!!!!
ㅇIf you’re going to die, give me back my money and die!!!!!!!!!!!
Title: Sincere Statement. No Corpse Found
If we haven’t discovered it, does that mean they’re still alive?
NLKK
There’s no evidence!!!!
Even without evidence, why did stocks plummet?
That’s just a coincidence.
The magic word is “Kingban,” LOL.
Damn, LOL, what are they supposed to do if they reflect misfortune?
Yeah, LOL, figure it out yourself. You pushed for it!
Because I can’t figure it out on my own, help me!!!!!!!
I’m going to die like this!!!!!!!!
Title: What the hell, where did you go, Judak?
Posting tactical nukes, explicit photos; they’re all wandering around openly!
Did they just go to take a break or something?
Whoa, how can Judak leave the admin seat unattended, seriously, LOL.
They could be taking a nap, LOL.
They went to eat chicken skewers, yeah.
hahahaha, taking a full break.
But they didn’t know they would wipe out the bad guys and then go rest.
Come back now, Judak!!!!!
Are they dead or what?
Hm? Oh?
Title: That’s right, that’s right, there’s no way Judak is dead
But where did the cola and chicken go?
What are you talking about? Cola? Chicken? What are those?
Huh?
Hey, why are you talking to yourself?
Is Judak still vacant after already 5 years?
What the heck?
You guys… have you all forgotten about Judak?!
“Joodak…? Who is that?
Ah─ don’t you know─ it’s all filled up with familiar faces here.
A hero who handled tactical nuclear weapons for the gallery…
Tears are pouring down…
Ah.. there was that guy…
He was a fool who only knew about the gallery ─ but he was a brave lad ─
Joodak gave us cola…
Coughs… too sad.. where did my cola go, damn it…
Come back, Cola!!!!!!!!!!!
Title) Did Joodak actually die?
Really?
I guess he’s dead
This kind of situation happens once
Tsk, what a screw up
Do I have to wait for the next Joodak?
Could the continent recover before the next Joodak lol?
I’m not sure
I don’t know about anything else, but Joodak’s force was insane this time for real
It was the most powerful Joodak I’ve ever seen lol
The problem is that he was too powerful
He went short and intense because he was too strongㅠㅠ
Joodak… You should have shone just enough
Title) Could it be the followers…?
Gosh
Huh?
What.
Though Joodak was a villain who forced others without even paying a salary, why would his followers do that?
Do they have a compelling reason?
This kind of story would be a natural history lol
He deserved to die so why did you kill him, Elf boomer sir
(Plant Druid) That’s not possible…!!
(Another user) The kid doesn’t even have the strength to hold a staff.
(Another user) Most likely not this one hahahaha.
(Another user) Take it easy, old-timer LMAO.
(Plant Druid) Eek…!!!! That’s not true…!!
(Another user) So did the old elf get killed?
(Another user) Arguing that one can be easily killed because they’re young and healthy vs saying one can’t be killed because they’re old.
(Another user) The old elf in the middle of a hellish balance game LOL.
(Another user) Wow, this is unbalanced. Whichever you choose, it sucks?
(Another user) LMAO for real, it’s a loss either way hahahaha.
(Another user) Young cyber psycho vs old granny.
(Another user) Obviously, you have to go with the latter LOL, just answer honestly hahahaha.
(Another user) You don’t even need to answer, we already know.
(Another user) LOL There’s no helping an open book test.
(Another user) If it’s not the elf old-timer, then…
(Another user) Could it possibly be Demon Lord-chan…?
(Demon Lord) Eh.
(Another user) LOL What a reaction.
(Another user) Why is the reaction so cute?
(Another user) You think cute Demon Lord-chan would do such a thing? Pfft;
(Another user) Imagine it was done by a tiny demon girl, does that make sense?
(Another user) Oh.
(Another user) Possible.
(Another user) Possible my ass, you damned neurotic!!!
(Another user) Please, just hold your breath for 50 years…
(Demon Lord) I’m not the one… It’s just suddenly getting kicked from the forum, feeling down… But it all started from getting the boot…
(Another user) Turns out, it was the boot that died first…
(Another user) The dude was gone before you knew it…
(Another user) For real…
(Another user) If it’s neither of these two, then could it possibly be…?
A hero…?
A hero (can’t do the third circle magic mental arithmetic)
Ah, this is a bit hard, lol.
Really, such a dimwit
Did this kid kill Jaddeuk? And not of natural causes?
Seriously though, he must have let himself die or it was his time anyway
But where did the hero go?
The hero is nowhere to be seen today
Right
Was he shocked that Jaddeuk died?
She blankly stared at the comment section of the gallery.
The brave man tried to push the comment button. Kaira Luz’s finger paused.
(Jaddeuk cannot be dead.) [Commenting]
The window flickered, but she erased all the text instead of typing a comment.
Could Jaddeuk really be dead.
She finds it hard to believe the reality of the situation.
How could someone she was just talking to die?
However, the empty gallery represented reality.
Jaddeuk was gone, and the team leader’s authority was gone.
What this means is clear. It’s clear, but…
The moment she concedes to his death with a comment, it feels like she will never see this person again.
Kaira’s fingers couldn’t make the swift movement.
“He was my first friend…”
For the fallen noblewoman who lived as an outsider, this was her first friend.
Of course… she doesn’t know his face or voice, but she enjoyed her online chats with Jaddeuk.
He was the one at the gallery who treated her sincerely and reached out to her.
He’s not in this world anymore.
The place of the gallery administrator was vacant.
Click. Click. Click.
She kept closing and opening the gallery’s page.
“Error… it should be an error… why does it continue to be blank… it should be an error…?
But the gallery administrators’ blank doesn’t get filled.
Tears flowed down her cheeks.
It felt like something had pierced her heart… she clenched it with her hands.
There’s no way Judak is coming back. It was time to acknowledge that fact.
A dead person coming back to life only happens in novels.
The opinion in the gallery gradually started to lean towards Judak being dead.
Title) Is Judak….!!!! Dead?!!!
(A random picture of a person kneeling and crying.jpg)
ㄴJudak… such a nostalgic name…
ㄴHa… there used to be someone like that…
ㄴAh─you know about Judak─?
ㄴHey, don’t casually mention that guy’s name…! No, it’s not like he’s going to come back to life if we do this─
ㄴHey, don’t tell me── Judak── Wasn’t he dead──?
ㄴJudak. The familiar echo. Is that my name?
ㄴF*ckㅋㅋㅋ
ㄴI’ve seen all sorts of clichésㅋㅋ
ㄴNo, why do these guys know so wellㅋㅋㅋㅋ
ㄴStop living in reality and more internet trolling, Galboong!!!!
ㄬTsk, you’re always out in the real world and meeting girls, eh? That’s why you don’t know these memes, unlike me, who’s on trolling 24 hours and stays up late.
ㄴThis is just a grown-up who’s lost touch.
ㄴYeah, that’s meㅋㅋ
Title) “Hey, don’t you think the gallery’s been a bit dull lately?”
More than that, it’s like…
We can’t feel that warm feeling from before….you know?
Ah~ really
I also don’t know what I’m saying
…
You know, galleries are always fighting amongst each other
Everyone’s a bit out of it these days…?”
On one side, they’re talking trash just like an otaku,
Gloomy and upset-!
Idiot, just an idiot.
What happened to that kind person from before…
You know, I,
When I needed a friend,
I used to wander around all day long,
Constantly, amidst peoples’ indifference.
I’ve… lived like this all this time,
So, I thought, ‘It’s not any different this time~’
I hated myself for quietly becoming accustomed to it.
And when I was crying like a child, what appeared before me was
A “Gallery”
Their tone and kind voice seemed to grant what they truly loved to others,
Even though I couldn’t see clearly through my tears,
I felt it,
The ‘warmth’….
Oh sorry, sorry for the pointless ramble.
So, everyone, please get a grip,
You bunch of idiots.
ㄴBloody template lol
ㄴEmotional idiot…
ㄴWhere on earth do you keep digging out such sh*tty posts?
ㄴf*ck lol. It’s genuinely sh*t
ㄴIt’s a real talent to make every single sentence so unpleasant lol
ㄴAs soon as he disappeared, the template began lol.
Title: Do you remember last week?
It’s been 15 years already…
It was really depressing when he suddenly died lol in reality.
Auction houses and cola and things like chicken…
I still miss them…
Juddak… Come back anytime now
Seriously… I’m having a hard time
It’s already been 15 years since Juddak died…
Feels like yesterday…
Yesterday’s incident, you bastards hahahaha
Has it jumped from five to fifteen years?
hahahaha, I thought we had moved to the future
Did the timeline of the gallery world twist when Juddak died? hahahaha, sigh, lol
Title) I wish Juddak would just come out next time
Agree if you like hahahaha
Upvotes: 289 Downvotes: 1993
No matter how you look at it, this is not right hahahaha
It’s too soon to move on from Juddak’s death hahahaha
It’s okay that Juddak died, but it’s too sad that the cola is gone
Seriously… Where did the cola and chicken go…
Title) It doesn’t matter who becomes Juddak
Chicken, Cola ＜＜ If they resurrect, I’ll support them first
Seriously hahahaha
If that kind of Juddak then, it’s totally possible hahahaha
We can now immediately start erasing memories of Juddak hahahaha
So, where is such a Juddak?
Could there be one somewhere?
hahahaha. Seriously, there must be. It can’t not exist when the continent is so vast and the world is so large.
But what if this Juddak was special? What if we can never taste cola and chicken in our lives again? And what if it takes 10-20 years until the next Juddak comes out?
What
This is really the ending of the gallery…
Hell’s here hahahaha… Nah, it can’t be like this?
Nah, (it’s the truth)
Title) Gallery: Hope Edition
A fresh moderator,
Auction house making a comeback,
Cola and chicken, back on the menu,
People with loving generosity,
Gallery’s fun tidbits,
Harmless gallery members,
– I love this, this is what a gallery should be,
– If this isn’t a gallery, then what is it?
– What have I been doing all this time…?
– Seriously, I’ve always dreamt of a gallery like this.
– I lost out by not joining sooner, let’s revive this gallery soon!
– Those with loving generosity, the top darlings!
Title) Gallery: Despair Edition
An incompetent moderator,
Tactical nukes and hate speech flooding back again,
Worst, dull content,
Malicious contributors,
Boring gallery tidbits,
Members constantly on edge,
– Really, this is the gallery?
– This is the usual state of the gallery.
– Wasn’t there a malicious contributor last time, too?
– An elder reminiscing about the good old days.
– Pretending to be the ultra-villain (still cute, though)
– Dimwit wanting to become the hero,
– Who finds this cute? You’re full of bias!
– Is this the member list…? Are these the key members…????
– The constantly-agitated members exist here? Was this the Despair Edition?
– It’s always despair, I guess.
“If you have no job, lover, friends, it’s despair.
Why are you starting a fight, you little bastard, where do you live?
Why are you attacking me out of the blue when I’m just sitting quietly after so long????
Lmao seriously galbus here with lots of temper.
Suddenly getting a punch definitely saddens you. That’s why you should feel even sadder.
It’s not human…
Title) I suddenly died and went to the academy…
They say there are no dead female students at the academy.
Why am I not a female student at the academy?
What? Why not?
Was I the only one who thought I was an academy female student?
Did you trick us again, you suddenly?
(random close-up face meme.jpg)
Title) Leaving the photo that suddenly liked…
(random cute baby meal box meme.jpg)
This is the milk bottle you liked…
Wow hahahaha
Wow, milk bottle hahahaha
Delicious hahahaha
Is it appropriate to upload a picture of a milk bottle at a funeral?
Right hahahaha, let’s post foods that the deceased person liked.
Huh? Food?
If it’s a chest, it’s food, right? Is it not? hahahaha
Title) Went to the funeral yesterday…
I attended the funeral yesterday.
It wasn’t really a funeral.
I just thought about it during the funeral.
I didn’t go to the funeral.
I just thought about it at home.
Actually, I didn’t even think about it.”
It’s just dead as a doornail.
Huh?
Lmao
What kind of template is this lol
What does dead as a doornail even mean?
F**k, this is confusing lol
So where’s the funeral for this dead as a doornail thing?
Is there even one? lol
Are you trying to trick us again, Galbup?!
Ah, f**k lol
Innocent Galbup’s are the best lol
Title: Is there no Galbup to hold the funeral?
Let’s go to the funeral
This is the last support we can give on our way lol
Even on the way the urge to support is so strong…
Are you by any chance male?
Male lmao
Is this place a funeral parlor or a sh*thole hahahahaha
Is this correct? lol
Title: Dead As A Doornail’s Funeral Highlight Collection
(Roughly a collection of dead as a doornail jpg)
The cola and chicken ceremony begins ;;
Wow lol
The exhibition of Dead As A Doornail’s achievements. Amazing.
I can’t hold back lol
The stuff Dead As A Doornail did is amazing
The auction last time was pretty insane lol
It was because of that thing the continent blew up!!!!
Yeah, but I didn’t buy lol
“You too? hahahaha, me too.”
“A funeral….”
The Queen of Osen Kingdom, Beatrice, carefully read the report she held. She read it over and over again.
Its content was hard to believe.
Judd had died, the gallery had become desolate, and all of the once vibrant culture had vanished.
There were rumors that Judd’s death was false, but even that wasn’t the case now.
His death had been confirmed, and everyone had come to terms with it.
“He has…died….?”
“Yes. Judd’s death has been confirmed.”
“I see. You can go now.”
The servant filed out, and Beatrice weakenedly put down the report.
“Sigh…”
It was hard to accept Judd’s death, but the neglect of the gallery meant his demise.
She did not deny his death.
If anything, she was just regretful.
“I didn’t even know who you were, and yet here I am, seeing you off…”
Beatrice made a bitter face, looking up at the night sky.
How did Judd die?
Was it loneliness, in a place where no one could find him? Or was it the result of someone’s grudge?
Regardless of how he died, the fact that he was dead hung heavily on her.
‘If I had known Judd would die this quickly… would I have used my wish?’
The fact that she couldn’t do anything for Judd weighed on her mind.
Judd had brought great benefit to the kingdom.
The Kingdom had received a great favor and had yet to repay it.
But that debt remained in Beatrice’s heart.
“A funeral…”
As it stands, Judd would be forgotten, with no one to care for him.
To the Kingdom and Beatrice, Judd was a hero. And he deserved a hero’s death.
‘Even if it’s his last journey… I will take care of it, Judd’
She decided to use her own resources to hold a funeral.
I will not make a mockery of Judick’s death.
Beatrice said a brief prayer for Judick’s demise.
For Judick.
While her eyes were closed, a little shooting star traced a long trail in the sky, disappearing into the horizon.
Perhaps the star, shining like a small ember, answered her wish.
The urgent knocking continued.
“Come in.”
“Your Majesty… there’s something happening in the gallery…”
“…?”
Something has happened.
***
At that moment, there was a commotion in the gallery.
The cyber funeral for Judick was in progress.
A collection of pacifiers for Judick.jpg
Highlights of Judick’s gallivanting in life.
94-year-old Judick’s last sponsored strip show at the funeral, etc.
In the midst of mourning Judick’s death.
Someone appeared to mock Judick’s funeral.
—Judick
Subject) Where should I go for the funeral?
Huh? Are they serving BBQ?
The heck is this guy?
Wasn’t he dead?
BBQ, you sh*t, hahahaha.
Wait, who would come to his own funeral, you stupid jokers, ha!
Freakin’ hilarious.
Season one, resurrection, hahahaha.
It was Judick.
