18 - Yeah Right, Ultrafirst (4)
But who am I?
The Returnee Gallery Manager and…
A slave and gallery addict who managed various galleries including the Genre Novel-phia Gallery Manager, Hero Return Gallery Manager, Parody Novel Gallery Manager, Animation Gallery File Manager, and more.
I can manually grind through data even if I can’t use the search function, after all, I’ve deleted tactical nukes with my bare hands.
‘I’ll find you even if I have to stay up all night.’
Fortunately, even as a [Bug] rank, I could at least send private messages.
I left a message for the former manager telling her to apologize to the gallery users and then started my grind.
‘I need to understand how I became the manager.’
First, I decided to learn about Morax, who took all my points.
I pushed TranscendentWeb to my side monitor and searched for his TranscendentWeb nickname, ‘Moloc,’ on Goooogle.
While Morax was unfamiliar, Moloc sounded like something I’d heard before.
“Has the head of a bull, and child sacrifices were made by burning them… He’s a complete bastard!”
I could understand why he had targeted Yoon Sena’s younger sister.
No wonder he’s trapped in the tower as a floor guardian despite being a transcendent being.
Anyway, unlike the Returnee Gallery, TranscendentWeb’s timeline was a mess, perhaps because even low-rank members were immortal beings living eternal lives.
Despite being more recent than Morax’s post bragging about extorting my points, there were posts mocking the former Returnee Gallery manager for abandoning the gallery.
I wondered if someone was using a time machine to post on the community, but concluded that anything was possible for transcendent beings.
Even the Tower Demon, who was (presumably) a lackey of transcendent beings, moved through the tower as easily as walking through his front yard, while tower climbers had to struggle to climb it.
‘Wait, is Cheon No-ran a transcendent being too?’
I thought about Cheon No-ran, who cut through space with her sword and moved to other worlds.
‘It would be more surprising if she weren’t a transcendent being…’
I decided to look into Cheon No-ran later and used my gallery addict experience to check each post, flipping through the pages.
Living up to the name of transcendent beings, the number of members was less than the Returnee Gallery, but each one was like a walking macro.
Plus, it was quite difficult to find posts by the Goddess of Return, nickname MacaronFlavoredBird, as she hadn’t been active for quite some time.
I got to around page 1934.
-I have handed over the Returnee Gallery Manager position to someone else. Please stop trying to invade the Returnee Gallery.
Finally, I found a post written by the former manager.
[Title: I have handed over the Returnee Gallery Manager position to someone else. Please stop trying to invade the Returnee Gallery.] [Author: MacaronFlavoredBird(Mid-rank Member)] [Content: Hello, TranscendentWeb members.
I am MacaronFlavoredBird, the Goddess of Return.
As of this moment, I wish to hand over the manager position to someone else and step away from the Returnee Gallery.
The file manager has also gone missing, and I can no longer protect this gallery alone.
The new manager is an ordinary human.
I swear on my deity status, he is neither a transcendent being nor anything close to one.
He’s just someone who is active in and enjoys the gallery.
And…
The Returnee Gallery users are neither cowards nor traitors.
They are people who either succeeded in fulfilling their tasks in other worlds or chose to return to their original worlds because those tasks were too painful.
I know who the “ultrafirsts” mentioned in the gallery are.
I know that you ultrafirsts intervene in the lives of Returnee Gallery users and lead them to miserable lives.
If the Returnee Gallery is terraformed by TranscendentWeb people, they will lose even their last refuge.
Please stop trying to invade the Returnee Gallery.]

-Mid-rank Member: Make up your mind whether you’re making a request or a threat ㅠㅠ -Low-rank Member: Is being a mid-rank member everything… I don’t care what happens to mortals, but can’t we just demote this person?
-Moloc(Mid-rank Member): Since when has it been a sin to pour poison into a nest of bugs? Leave the gathering of returnees to us demons, Lewentia. ㄴBarbatos(Mid-rank Member): This is the personal opinion of Morax, ranked 21st. The great demons within the top 10 ranks have decided to remain neutral. ㄴMoloc(Mid-rank Member): Why! I’m trapped in the tower because of those damn returnees! ㄴPaimon(Mid-rank Member): That’s because you burned cute mortal babies… we just grant wishes when summoned, why did you eat weird sacrifices…lolol ㄴAgares(Mid-rank Member): We? Don’t include me in that crude list. ㄴPaimon(Mid-rank Member): Yes sir lolol

-Gabriel(Mid-rank Member): Give us the manager’s name ㄴMacaronFlavoredBird(Mid-rank Member): I’m sorry. I cannot reveal that for privacy protection. ㄴGabriel(Mid-rank Member): No.. I just want to purify if they cross the line.. I’m not trash like those demons. ㄴPaimon(Mid-rank Member): Oh Moloc is trash!!! Stop generalizing demons
The former manager’s post was essentially a declaration of surrender.
It seems like there were circumstances, but why did she leave without telling the users?
Looking at the top of the post, she mentions that the former file manager went missing and she was overwhelmed, should I find the former file manager?
If I found the former file manager, kidnapped him, and brought him to the former manager, then handed over the manager position, the former manager, the former file manager, and I could all be happy.
“The problem is that I only have a feeling that the former file manager is the hero from our world, but no other clues…”
For now, I went back to the Returnee Gallery and wrote a post saying I found the former manager.
[☆Title: Breaking news) Found the former manager] [I received a TranscendentWeb entry ticket as a reward for helping the S-class Bragger, and the former manager was there browsing the gallery or the web or whatever.
That access stopped yesterday though
I’ve brought the manager’s statement from TranscendentWeb (Screenshot of the manager’s statement)
Oh and the reason I made the S-class Bragger the file manager is because of the ultrafirsts, as you all know
She’s the only one in the Returnee Gallery who can handle transcendent beings..
If you don’t like the S-class Bragger, stage a coup
And I’m sorry to the returnee idiots living in modern Earth..
I guess being middle class, I didn’t understand what inconveniences working-class returnee idiots face..
I’ve put 1000 Clean Magic Scrolls that can both clean and bathe in the auction
I’ve listed them at 10 points each, so take as many as you want]
