Episode 57 < Bibliomania. (2) >

3.
Hunters sat around the library.
“Umm… .”
Hunters sitting in a wide circle. In the middle of it all, there were hundreds of volumes of [The Book of Revelation] piled up. From now on, we had to choose one book from among them, but no one was so quick to approach the pile of books.
It was natural. Just moments ago, my colleagues were eaten by books. That’s 50 people. Everyone was afraid or depressed.
To laugh lively in a situation like this, you don’t have to be an average idiot, right?
“Ahaha!”
Surprisingly, there was such a fool.
“50 people were eliminated as soon as it started. “This hurts my bones.”
Blonde boy. It is acknowledged by everyone that he is one of the best idiots in our world. The Heretic Questioner stroked his chin.
“But by nature, moving forward involves sacrifice. Let us not forget their sacrifices! You will have to work even harder on your strategy!
“Let’s cheer up! It was very fortunate that 100 people almost flew away, but only 50 people were killed. Instead of feeling sad about what we lost, we should be happy about what we kept!”
The more the Heretic Questioner opened his mouth, the more hostile the atmosphere became.
Bookmark maids were still walking around us. The bookmarks came from somewhere and served hot coffee and tea, and among the 250 hunters, the Inquisitor was the only one to say, “Ah! Thank you!” And I quickly received it.
“hmm?”
The Heretic Questioner sipped black tea and tilted his head.
“Aren’t you drinking, guys? “Is it very delicious?”
“first… .”
I interrupted the Heretic Questioner.
Nothing good comes from letting a psychopath talk for too long.
“Heresy Questioner. “You better keep your mouth shut.”
“yes? “Why?”
“The more you talk, the lower our morale goes. I’m losing motivation. “If fraud goes any further, it will be a big problem, so please shut up until I tell you it’s done.”
“ah. “Then it’s a really big deal.”
The Heretic Questioner smiled broadly.
“I understand, Death King! I’m willing to shut up!”
The hunters looked at the Heretic Questioner and me alternately with puzzled expressions.
Don’t look at me like that. I just figured out how to deal with that idiot.
“ruler.”
I deliberately raised my voice to change the mood.
“everyone. Everyone would have known. You shouldn’t attack that constellation carelessly. “Right now, I have no choice but to quietly follow the quest given by the Librarian.”
The hunters’ eyes slowly focused on me.
I instinctively felt the burden, but I swallowed it down my throat.
‘Now I am ranked third.’
The hunter with the third strongest voice in this room!
I had to get used to being stared at as much as breathing.
I pretended to have a completely expressionless expression and opened my mouth.
“But following the quest doesn’t really mean we’re at a disadvantage. everyone. “Please take a look at the quest window.”
Following my words, the hunters’ eyes hung in the air.
The same hologram that I see will be reflected in their eyes.

[Remake the World. Volume 1]
Difficulty level: TBC
Mission Objective: There are many worlds, and there are many destructions. The Constellation ‘Director of the Library in the Corner’ describes this as an interruption in serialization. Room Corner Library Director wants to continue the story of the worlds whose serialization was discontinued for unreasonable reasons.
First, choose one of the books of the Apocalypse that has been discontinued!
If you succeed in saving the world, that world will be registered as your 22nd floor.
※However, if the mission fails, the 22nd floor will not be open.
+
“You’ve read everything, right?”
The hunters nodded. Among them, there were even people who answered “yes.” Was it the effect of making the Heretic Questioner shut up? For the time being, there seemed to be no hunters who could challenge my authority.
“The most important thing here is the last part. [If you succeed in saving the world, that world will be registered as your 22nd floor]. “Do you all know what that means?”
The hunters were confused.
You still don’t know how tremendous a reward this is.
I said.
“The rewards vary depending on what world you save. ruler. Let’s say you want to save a world full of diamonds! Then, that world becomes our 22nd floor.”
‘…….”
The faces of the hunters began to change dramatically.
“Diamonds are just an example. People who live in towers like us don’t need that kind of piece of coal. But what about a world with abundant reserves of food, water, and various ores?”
“Self-sufficiency… .”
The witch muttered.
“It really becomes possible to become self-sufficient.”
“That’s it.”
I stood up. And a pile of books in the middle. The library director told us to ‘choose from these two’ and walked towards the books of the Apocalypse that we had chosen.
“Hey, hey! Death King!”
A viper shouted from behind.
“If you touch that carelessly, the tentacle monster will appear again…” !”

I picked up any book from the Apocalypse. omg! The hunters screamed and closed their eyes. There was even a hunter who quickly ran away for fear that the tentacle monster would come out again.
But even as 1, 2, and 3 seconds passed, nothing happened.
The Apocalypse was held gently in my hands like an ordinary book.
“Uh, how are you?”
The poisonous snake slowly opened its one eye.
“Nothing happened… ?”
“Hehe.”
The library director floating in the air laughed.
“exactly! Unless I exercise my power, the Apocalypses are nothing more than ordinary books. Of course, there are banned books that become dangerous just by touching them. “Those books are sealed in a very deep place, so don’t worry.”
“hmm.”
I nodded.
And when I opened the book in my hand, another hologram appeared.
It was information about the book.

[Sormwin Academy Story]
Genre: Romance, Fantasy
Difficulty level: D
Limited number of people: 4 to 5 people
※The series is currently discontinued.
Introduction: Sormwyn is a historic academy of magic. It’s an ordinary academy where friendship and competition, love and jealousy come and go. This Apocalypse could have remained an ordinary school drama. Unless there was a world-destroying artifact sealed in the basement of the academy!
Year-round reason: The evil lady’s fiancé (crown prince) was taken away by a female student who was reincarnated for the second time. When he turns around and unseals the artifact, the Great Evil is liberated and destroys the world.
+
The cause of the year, in short, the cause of the world’s destruction, was truly pitiful.
Worlds destroyed by meteorites or tsunamis are better.
‘poor. The world has been destroyed because of the children’s petulance… .’
The library director had reason to be angry.
Let’s think about it.
******
“iced coffee.”
Like a crack in a blue jewel, understanding began to seep into the prince’s icy eyes.
The long misunderstanding that had separated them had finally melted away after their second life.
“My other half was here. Lady Sylvia. “You were my other half.”
The crown prince muttered as if he was sighing and got down on one knee. Sylvia sobbed with her heart out in silence, holding her breath.
The two realized without realizing that they would never forget this moment until they die.
Right at that moment.
With a loud bang, the entire crown prince exploded.
”Eh?”
The next moment, Sylvia burst out too.
What came into Sylvia’s consciousness as she was moving away were incoherent screams.
“Aaaah!.”
“The devil! “The devil has appeared!”
“You’re out of luck.”
world.
That was the moment it ended.
******
A romance novel that you have been reading with great interest suddenly stops for something like this. Any reader will be outraged.
Even if it’s a novel, how awesome would it be if it were the real world?
‘anyway.’
This isn’t important right now.
“everyone! “Come here and take a look at the books.”
I shouted to the hunters.
“Each book has different levels of difficulty and content. Among these, there are books that are difficult enough for us to beat. And when we wake up, we have to pick out the books that will benefit us the most!”
Several hunters stood up.
But still, most people just stare at each other blankly.
-You idiot. They do that because they always use polite words. Do you still not understand how disobedient bastards hunters are?
Bae Hu-ryeong said.
-The number of hunter heads you have to deal with now is 250. 250 people. I guess I have to speak informally to those guys before I can decide whether to listen to them or not.
‘Really?’
-Every time you rap up, you hear [your presence has become more clear]. Do you know what that means? [Your pride has become stronger] Hey. Basically, the higher the level the hunter is, the more pride he has. Don’t listen to me.
indeed.
I filled the aura and detonated the Lion’s Roar.
“There are hundreds of books of the Apocalypse, how can I read them all by myself! Come and read!”
I flinch.
Only then did the heavy hunters stand up and hesitate.
“Everyone listen!”
I ordered without stopping.
“Let’s split into groups. The person who says he has read some novels or history books should go to the left! If you really don’t know anything about novels or history, go to the right! hurry! hurry!”
The hunters’ steps became faster.
Rumble!
People were divided into two groups.
“People who read books are divided according to their favorite genres! People who like romance should join the romance group! People who like fantasy should join the fantasy group! If you like mystery novels, there is a separate mystery novel group! hurry!”
Finally, the library atmosphere became a bit busier.
Under my command, the hunters began to move around quickly.
“ruler. From now on we all read books!”
I picked up the Book of Revelation and tapped it.
“We will distribute hundreds of books divided by genre. The romance group should read romance books. Please read other groups according to their respective genres! “Read the book and decide whether this is a failure or a success.”
“town! town!”
The Heretic Questioner waved his arms vigorously.
He was still following my instructions and keeping his mouth shut.
“… “Yes, please say so.”
“Death King! I don’t know what a mess is! Please tell me the standards! If the story is good, it’s a hit, and if the story is bad, it’s a total flop?”
“no. “Not at all.”
I opened a book of the Apocalypse and showed it to him.
“For example, something like this is a disaster.”
+
[Survive in the volcano!]
Genre: Survival, Romance
Difficulty level: D
Number of people limited: 2
※The series is currently discontinued.
Introduction: This world has been devastated by nuclear war. But human vitality is amazing! Even after a nuclear war broke out on the ground, the protagonist and his lover survived. After overcoming all kinds of hardships and hardships, the main couple vows to become a new Adam and Eve.
Year-round reason: The place where the main character couple stayed overnight on the last day happened to be in an active volcano area. A volcano erupts during the night. Both the protagonist and his lover are killed by a stone thrown from a volcano. Humanity is destroyed.
+
I said in a miserable tone.
“It’s not an ordinary disaster, it’s a total disaster.”
“why?”
The Heretic Questioner tilted his head.
“The new Adam and Eve. “Isn’t it romantic and nice!”
“There is no use in saving this world. “This is a world where nuclear war has already occurred.”
I sighed and closed the book.
“What would you do if you got to the 22nd floor in a world full of radiation? “Will we, as a group, die from radiation contamination?”
“aha.”
Note that.
In the past, the Flame Emperor cleared the Great Library in an amazing way.
From the 22nd floor to the 29th floor, we only conquered worlds covered with [lava] or [volcano].
‘He’s crazy.’
The Flame Emperor is immune to fire. Even in a world where lava flows and volcanoes explode, the Flame Emperor can take a leisurely stroll.
I chose Apocalypse purely based on [how easy it is to attack].
We didn’t even think about which apocalypse should be saved to benefit us.
‘If you do well, this is your chance to obtain eight treasure troves!’
In any case, a guy who lives for his own pride is not helpful.
In the end, it is a loss to other people living in the tower.
‘This time, I’ll only choose the apocalypses that will make you as happy as possible.’
An apocalypse filled with monsters that may be helpful to hunters’ practical experience, an apocalypse filled with rare minerals, an apocalypse set in ruins filled with treasures, or an apocalypse with seasoned chicken and sweet and sour pork running around in the forest. Something like an apocalypse where fried shrimp dance in the sea.
no. Let’s cancel the last one. If it were real, it would be quite scary.
anyway!
“Remember! “It doesn’t matter if the story is shit or not!”
I shouted as I handed out books to the hunters.
“Don’t worry about the main character having cancer or the story being boring or anything like that. Just read! Read from beginning to end and calculate whether saving this world will benefit all of us… .”
Stop.
I stopped while handing out books.
One hunter made eye contact with me.
“… hey. Black Dragon Master?”
“huh. Why?”
It was a witch.
I slowly opened my mouth.
“This is the [Mystery] group.”
A group of people who have always enjoyed reading mystery novels.
I don’t know why, but the witch was sitting there proudly.
When I looked at the character window earlier, didn’t this person appear as a fan of romance dramas?
“I know.”
The witch nodded as if it was obvious.
“I wonder if I sat here without even knowing where I was.”
“uh… . Black Dragon Lord. “Did you like mystery stories?”
“of course.”
Horn.
The witch quietly drank black coffee.
“I am an intelligent woman.”
“……..”
crazy.
Why is this guild leader suddenly cosplaying like an ordinary person again? I like drama. I like romance. Even if you look at it, you are a reader who is passionate about extreme romance.
‘no way.’
I realized something.
‘I don’t want people around me to know that I’m a romantic fan… ?’
Come to think of it, there were particularly few hunters in the [Romance] group. There wasn’t even a single man. On the contrary, I don’t know why, but [martial arts] was full of only men.
I can guarantee that there are less than a handful of people who actually read martial arts.
‘and.’
My mind went blank.
‘Are these people still cosplaying in this situation!?’
-I told you so.
Bae Hu-ryeong muttered sullenly.
-High-level hunters make a living with pride alone. Besides, they all have tinnitus. They say they would rather die than not have Gao. Didn’t you see it? The thing about 50 people committing suicide at once? They’re all crazy people.
I’m going to turn around.
“No, Black Dragon Lord… No matter how much it is… .”
“Whatever it is?”
The witch asked back calmly.
Her grave face felt like an impregnable fortress.
I desperately tried to think of something to say, and spoke slowly.
“no… . I think the Black Dragon Master is a very romantic person… I always thought that way. It was a bit surprising since you were in a mystery group and not a romance group… .”
The witch’s fingers holding the coffee cup stopped.
“Hmm. Really?”
The witch’s voice was exactly the same as usual.
“Do I look like someone suited for romance?”
“yes. Rather than romance, it would be a bit strange if you were somewhere else… . It feels like you’re wearing clothes that don’t really suit you… .”
“ha.”
The witch put down her coffee cup and stood up.
“If Death King says that, there’s nothing we can do. I’ve never read a romance novel in my life, but yeah. Should we take this opportunity to become familiar with a new genre? “The correct attitude as a hunter is to try something new.”
“That makes sense… .”
“huh. okay.”
The witch walked towards the romance group with brisk steps.
It was like a cowboy walking across the wilderness in a western movie.
I couldn’t help but look at her back with a very delicate feeling.
“That’s amazing, Death King!”
The Heretic Questioner looked at me like that with sparkling eyes. He was also sitting in the reasoning group.
“Once the Black Dragon Master sits down, he has no way of standing up. Ahhh. “A truly amazing newcomer has emerged!”
“… Pantheon. “Do you read mystery novels too?”
The Heretic Questioner smiled brightly like an angel.
“Sherlock Holmes knows!”
“ah. Even Dr. Watson knows.”
I quietly recited the command in my mind.
‘Portrait window.’
Slurp.
Letters appeared before my eyes.

crazy.
I got goosebumps.
‘Are your outer appearance and inner feelings exactly the same?’
Moreover, there was nothing I disliked or disliked.
‘Is this really a person!?’
It was shock and fear.
It’s truly a pure natural born crazy psycho.
“hmm? “Why are you doing this, Death King?”
Crazy Psycho tilted his head.
I wondered for a moment how to deal with it.
Then, he took out an autograph pen from his pocket and wrote something on the back of the Heretic Questioner’s hand.
[Fairytale].
I said with a solemn expression.
“Heretic Questioner.”
“yes!”
“You are part of the Dongwha group from now on.”
“Is it a fairy tale?”
“is it so. There is only one Inquisitor in this group. “The Heretic Questioner must independently verify and review all books that enter the group.”
“Oh oh! “It’s a huge responsibility!”
Crazy Psycho’s eyes sparkled.
I nodded.
“Yes, it’s huge. So, please be kind to me.”
“Ahaha. Do not worry! Death King. “We will definitely review it!”
okay.
Among the hundreds of books of the Apocalypse, there is not a single fairy tale.
I also searched closely to see if there were any hunters wearing normal cosplay. The results were amazing. Of the 250 people, more than 100 were lying about their reading preferences.
‘These crazy people… .’
In the end, it took three hours just to divide into groups.
As many as 112 cosplayers were sent back to their original places.
But even I… .
When I reached the last person, I couldn’t help but remain silent.

+
The figure was wearing an eyepatch over one eye.
That person was a swordsman called Cheonmumunju.
That person… He was the emperor of light novels.
“ok?”
The viper looked back at me.
“What, what are you looking at? “I’m busy reading a book.”
And the Viper was sitting in the [Martial Arts] group.
“no… .”
I couldn’t bear to say anything.
“I’m sorry for interrupting your reading. Read on… .“
“OK.”
I turned my back and walked helplessly.
This time I came to the 21st floor and realized this clearly.
The top hunters were all crazy.
And I had to carry these crazy guys.
etc,
