NOVEL NEXT Chapter 41:
Chapter 41
Some of the spirits who recognized who he was made a fuss.
I also easily guessed who he was through his name.
The White King of the Sunset Sea.
The place where the sun sets is the west.
The sea there means the West Sea.
White is the symbolic color he possesses.
And the name of king on top of that.
One of the Four Sea Dragon Kings, the Western White Dragon Guangshun King Ao Qin.
He was a spirit belonging to one of the Great Star Groups, the Thirty-Six Heavens of Heaven Realm.
‘I thought that some famous spirits would start to visit my library one by one, but I didn’t expect some to move so soon.’
And he was already picking a fight with me.
It was interesting that he came to my library, but that didn’t mean he could boss me around as a teller.
The Western White Dragon was a second-generation spirit in terms of rank, but his power was close to the third-generation.
He was very weak outside of the sea.
But that was similar for the other Sea Dragon Kings.
More than anything, their biggest strength was not simply power or something like that.
It was their enormous wealth.
That was what could be seen as the real weapon of the dragon kings.
To begin with, what about the East Sea Dragon King who had his Ruyi Jingu Bang stolen by that great sage?
Even after losing such a divine object, his East Sea Dragon Palace did not lose its dignity at all.
That showed how amazing the wealth of the dragon kings was, at least partly.
And now one of those dragon kings came to my library and provoked me.
-Well, I can sponsor this much point for you, are you still going to block me?
He said that.
Surely 10,000 text points was a very large amount.
How many fantasy creatures would I have to hunt to earn those points?
And it was just 10,000 points thrown on the spot.
He didn’t seem to care much about it by his actions.
He implied that he could spend more if he wanted to.
The Western White Dragon didn’t say it directly, but he had practically told me to bow down to him with just that action.
“I’m surprised that one of the famous Sea Dragon Kings has visited my library. It seems I didn’t recognize my guest well.”
[The White King of the Sunset Sea raises his chin.]
“So what do you want from me?”
[The White King of the Sunset Sea sponsors 10,000TP!]
[Don’t be too harsh and do it moderately. Well, what. How much do we talk when we talk?]
Another large amount of sponsorship money followed.
Adding to the previous one, it meant I received a whopping 20,000 points.
It was almost a fortune for a regular teller like me.
He knew that too, so he acted arrogantly. ‘I have so much money. Are you still not going to move as I want?’ He said.
The Western White Dragon didn’t say much, but he had made it clear to me with just that action.
“Haha. Moderately… You mean moderately?”
[The White King of the Sunset Sea nods his head.]
“Hmm, moderately. Moderately… Moderately…”
Some of the spirits who were watching me must have noticed something strange in my attitude.
Well, of course.
“I’m sorry, but no.”
I said with a smile on my face.
[…]
[…]
The message window became quiet in an instant.
All the spirits who were watching this scene shut their mouths tightly.
The only one who reacted was the one who was talking to me.
[The White King of the Sunset Sea asks what you mean by that.]
“Didn’t I tell you? No means no. Wasn’t my answer clear enough?”
[The White King of the Sunset Sea sponsors 10,000TP!]
[Is my sponsorship not enough for you? How much more do I have to give you to make you bow your head?]
The White King seemed quite hurt in his pride.
Well, sure. Had he ever tried to solve something with points and failed before?
He was a king.
Most tellers or collectors would throw away their pride and everything else in front of his points and bow down to him willingly.
That’s how huge the points that the Western White Dragon sponsored were, and they were enough to surprise other spirits.
But you know what?
That’s a method that works on ordinary tellers.
And I’m different?
“It’s not that your sponsorship is not enough. Even if you sponsor more points than this, no means no.”
I said firmly, as if there was no room for negotiation.
This is the rule I made.
If I make an exception or break it because of money, who would follow it?
“This is the rule I made, so I don’t have any exceptions either. This rule is absolute, strict, and fair. No matter how much point you offer as a bribe, no matter how much you try to intimidate me with your power and authority.”
I wiped off my smiling face and said in a cold voice.
“I will never change what I have decided. At least not for you, Western White Dragon.”
[Wha, whawhawhawha!!]
Rumble!
The system window shook roughly, perhaps because of his anger.
Even the clear sky had dark clouds, and I could hear the sound of thunder roaring in the distance.
It was a sign that a being of the Upper Realm was trying to interfere with his power in the Lower Realm, showing how angry he was right now.
But I didn’t flinch at all.
[The Genesis System activates.]
The commotion around me subsided in an instant.
Because of the influence of the system that covered the whole Mixed Realm, the Western White Dragon could not use his power recklessly.
But I could tell that he was very angry.
[The White King of the Sunset Sea sponsors 10,000TP!]
[How dare you, you lowly teller! Are you trying to insult me! You should just take my money and crawl around as I please! You can’t do anything even with so many points?! There’s nothing that money can’t do!]
Right after that, a series of sponsorship amounts exploded.
[The White King of the Sunset Sea sponsors 10,000TP!]
[The White King of the Sunset Sea sponsors 10,000TP!]
[The White King of the Sunset Sea sponsors 10,000TP!]
[The White King of the Sunset Sea sponsors 10,000TP!]
[The White King of the Sunset Sea sponsors 10,000TP!]
30,000 points directly through messages.
And another 50,000 points thrown in addition.
A total of 80,000 points, a huge amount of points, came directly to me.
He was challenging me if I wouldn’t budge even with this.
“Thank you for your sponsorship. But you see.”
I opened my library management window and said.
“You made a teller-hating remark. Congratulations on your graduation.”
[White King of the setting sun was banished from the library by the Teller Kang Yu-hyun.]
I kicked him out of my library, the Western White Dragon.
The other spirits who were quietly watching the scene gasped.
None of them seemed to think that I would really kick him out.
Of course.
He gave me 80,000 points.
Anyone would feel sorry or grateful and not say anything.
“Support is support. Rules are rules. Even if you are a spirit who has been reading my library from the beginning, I will block you mercilessly if you break the rules. There are no exceptions. I hope the rest of you keep that in mind. You understand, right?”
[Most of the spirits swallowed their saliva.]
They were in awe of me.
They were amazed by my bold action of kicking out the Western White Dragon after taking such a large amount of money, and by my fearless attitude against him, who belonged to the Great Army.
“It seems that you all understood well, I’m glad.”
I said with a smile again.
But this time, none of the spirits made fun of my words.
That’s right. If you set an example by kicking out one person, they listen well, right?
Well, that’s enough for whipping.
Now it’s time for carrots. If I’m too strict, the spirits will get tired and drop out.
“Of course, please understand that this is because it’s early. If the good atmosphere continues without having to impose sanctions, I’m also thinking of relaxing the rules.”
[The spirits nodded and agreed.]
That’s it.
It was a bit regrettable to lose a big spender, but I didn’t care since I got what I wanted.
There aren’t many big spenders in the mixed world anyway.
The Western Sea Dragon was not the only one.
[Inoooom!!]
It was then.
The Western White Dragon, who was angry at being forcibly kicked out by me, defied the system’s will and forcibly reconnected to my library.
Seeing that scene, the other spirits held their breaths.
How dare he?
He received such a large amount of money and still wanted to kick me out?
He must be ignorant of the world since he was born not long ago!
“How dare you defy the system’s will? I understand that you are angry from head to toe, but don’t you think you’ve crossed the line?”
[Shut up! You’re just a lowly teller who’s not even a regular employee, how dare you talk to me like that! You ate up all the points and kicked me out?! You don’t know how great I am!]
I sighed as I heard him shouting loudly.
Anyway, it’s annoying to deal with old men who have a lot of money.
They think everything can be solved with money.
[How dare you insult me, who belongs to the Great Army! The sin of trying to humiliate me is great! You may not know how great I am, but you insulted our thirty-six thousand heavens too…!]
“You said one wrong thing. I didn’t insult the thirty-six thousand heavens of the Great Army. And I didn’t insult you either. I just kicked out one customer who broke the rules.”
[You, youuuu! How dare you talk back to meeeeee!!!]
It was then.
[100TP support!]
[What’s going on?]
Suddenly hearing that word, the Western White Dragon who was shouting loudly shut his mouth.
[The one who resembles the brilliant light enters the library.]
That message, at least none of the spirits in my library missed it.
[Eh, Eden? No, why did the teller know him…?]
[The one who resembles the brilliant light asks what’s going on.]
[Well, that…]
No matter how great he was as one of the four dragon kings and ruled over the sea of the thirty-six thousand heavens, he couldn’t compare to Michael’s dignity.
White Dragon, who received Michael’s gaze, stuttered.
More than that, he caused confusion to the system by forcibly raising his power due to anger, and a huge backlash started to blow against him after a time lag.
[System anomaly! External existence interference detected.]
[Excessive force user detected.]
[System procedure work begins.]
[Aaargh! No!!]
The scream of pain from the Western White Dragon echoed beyond the system window.
I frowned as I saw him.
That’s right, no matter how angry you are, why do you defy the Genesis system?
[This is…!]
He probably didn’t know much about this Genesis system.
He must have thought everything was funny since he reached a position that was enviable by others.
He must have thought that he could solve any ‘minor’ mistakes with his wealth.
But, any spirit who knows a little bit about this Genesis system would never do such a thing.
Why do you think this Genesis system covers the entire mixed world?
Because other spirits follow it?
Because everyone uses this system?
No.
The coercive power of the Genesis system is something that even the top spirits can’t easily ignore.
But he was just a second-generation, barely hanging on to the middle class in terms of power level, and he tried to defy the system.
‘He’s crazy.’
The Western White Dragon made two big mistakes today.
One is that he couldn’t overcome his anger and rejected the system’s flow.
And the second is.
He dared to look down on me and make a fuss in my library.
[Aaah! No, stop!!]
He won’t die.
But he won’t be able to function properly for a while.
He’ll have to focus on recovery and rest for at least a few decades.
He’s lucky that he belongs to the Great Army, otherwise it would be worse.
[The White King of the setting sun is forcibly evicted.]
The Western White Dragon was forcibly kicked out of the library by the system.
Some of the spirits who saw that scene shivered at the fear of the Genesis system.
It was a serious mistake to try to humiliate a second-generation spirit who belonged to the Great Army.
“Well, well. There was a bit of trouble, but don’t worry too much. This won’t happen if you all follow the rules. That was a special case.”
[Some of the spirits agreed and nodded.]
[Some of the spirits sighed in relief.]
It was a good thing for me anyway.
I earned points and got rid of annoying or potential troublemakers.
“Then, shall we continue what we were saying? If anyone has any complaints about the rules of my room, please raise your hand.”
Among the spirits who had seen everything from beginning to end, there was no one who would show it.
Especially now that it was not Satan, but Michael who came to my library.
Who would dare to speak up when Michael, who was known for being fair and righteous, was staring at them?
“None of you? Then, let’s proceed as planned.”
Of course there was no opposition.
