Another World Gallery Became Popular - Chapter 51
51 – Otherworldly Baldie Gallery
Hair loss isn’t a big deal.
It’s simply a phenomenon where hair thins out until it falls.
The reason? No such thing existed.
Some people grow tall and handsome. Some people simply lose their hair.
Just like a plaything of genetics.
They were designed genetically to lose hair quite easily.
The cruel part? The gene that causes hair loss is dominant…!
It’s a wretched fact that as time passes in this world, the only men left are those whose hair falls out increasingly.
In the end, it means that every man is fated to lose his hair.
Yes, hair loss comes either quickly or gradually.
Someday, everyone will be bald…!
This was truth even applied to the emperor who always seemed to have an everlasting youthful charm.
Not even the emperor could defeat the genes of baldness.
Chris Karl Teseurer, 21 years old.
He realized his hair was falling out.
Everything began one morning.
He washed his hair under the maids’ guidance.
What is the existence of a maid working in the imperial palace?
A professional among professionals who work to the extent of their wage and provide the best service.
But, they could do nothing against hair falling out like rootless dandelion seeds.
“Eek…!”
“?!”
While drying his hair, the maid screamed in alarm.
Was it a bug that she spotted? As the emperor rose in confusion, he witnessed an astounding sight.
“…!”
A significant amount of hair had fallen into the sink!
It was an amount equivalent to that normally seen after three people wash their hair.
But the one who had just washed his hair was only the emperor.
Which meant, all this fallen hair belonged solely to the emperor.
The maid who initiated this ‘hair massacre’ was trembling terrifically.
How dare she cause damage to the royal body.
Every root, by strict terms, is a part of his precious body.
All this damage… it was something unforgivable.
Well, he could forgive her, but that would involve separating her head from her body.
How would she be punished for her transgression?
At the maid, who was trembling in fear, the emperor made a casual hand gesture.
“Y-y-your Majesty….”
“Let’s go out….”
The maid bowed repeatedly to the emperor who had generously given her the liberty and extended her mercy.
Expressing gratitude for the joy of keeping her life.
The emperor, who had been looking at the sink, sighed.
“Haah…”
It had finally arrived.
The cursed gene passed down from the ancient emperors had manifested.
“…As expected.”
Despite his denial, the emperor couldn’t avoid it.
Just like everyone else who had shiny hair. This emperor. It was the same for Chris.
Those who become emperors… endure the weight of the crown!
Just as these words imply, it was time to bear the weight of the crown, and the sorrow of baldness.
But the emperor still didn’t want to experience the sorrow of baldness.
‘A man is defined by his hair…!’
Making countless women cry with his appearance.
Number one dream man for women.
For the handsome-faced emperor, balding was an incredibly cruel fate.
Still not losing hope, the emperor rushed straight to the church.
Perhaps, couldn’t baldness be cured?!
In the cathedral led by the God of light, the priest spoke in a puzzled tone.
“Baldness is not a disease that can be cured. Your Majesty….”
“That means…”
“Yes. It’s inevitable. Isn’t it something that you can’t overcome aging with magic?”
It’s inevitable! Accept it.
Whether his words were right or not, the priest worshipping the God of Light also had shining hair.
Maybe he worshipped the God of Light so much that even his hair was shining.
The emperor still didn’t give up.
There were still the followers of the God of Darkness, Karinael!
The priests of the sect of darkness nodded their heads.
“Your Majesty. I see you have such a worry. Here, there’s this…”
“What’s this?”
“It’s a powder you sprinkle on your head to hide the bald spot.”
“…Is treatment impossible?”
At his question, the priest just gave a bitter smile.
He was a man who had endured the screams of countless bald men.
Even the emperor had joined the ranks of the potential bald.
But hope still existed.
The continent was vast, and there were many causes of baldness in the gallery.
There might be a cure for baldness there!
The emperor accessed the gallery and repeatedly searched for posts related to hair loss.

These were the testimonies of countless bald people who fought against hair loss.
Hair loss is impossible to overcome…!
“That can’t be!”
In this world, nothing is impossible.
The emperor still harbored a glimmer of hope.
So small that it could vanish at any moment but valuable enough to cherish.
He changed his dietary habits and maintained a healthy lifestyle, and searched for food that’s good for hair growth!
He also never skipped exercises dedicated for overcoming hair loss every day.
However…
Thud.
As hair got swept away in the wind, it became clear he could not fight against the laws of nature.
“Baldness is not a disease.”
This single sentence was so sorrowful.
He would have sought treatment if it had been a disease.
He would’ve paid a fortune just for the cure.
Every day, the thinning hairline brought despair to the emperor.
The daily routine of getting up in the morning, looking in the mirror and declaring himself handsome, was now gone.
Now, what greeted him in the morning were the numerous strands of hair scattered on his pillow!
But even that was a story of the past.
Having gone through the five stages of anger, it was time to accept his hair loss as part of his identity.
If only Jujjak had not suddenly extended an offer of a hair loss treatment.
“Hair loss treatment…?”
A spark of hope ignited in the depths of the emperor’s heart.
The issue was that the treatment belonged to his adversary.
“So, what are you gonna do?”
“…”
“You gonna take the treatment?”
“Wa, wait…!”
“Hey, let go of that.”
“How do I know if this treatment is genuine?”
“Why the hell would I deceive you? What would I gain from that?”
“What if it’s poison disguised as a hair loss treatment!?”
“Then don’t take it, don’t take it. Hey, let go, you bastard. I was just trying to give a gift. So ungrateful.”
“What, what…! Who gives only to snatch it back!”
“Fine, I’m leaving.”
“Wait!!!!!!!”
As Jujjak made a motion to get up, the emperor also rose from his seat.
“I am not finished yet!!”
“But I am.”
“Leave!!!!!”
“Our relationship is over. Do you understand?”
“We haven’t even started yet!”
“So, you’re putting it up for auction? Damn it, do as you please.”
“Give me some time….”
The desperate Emperor reached out.
All he had to do was give up on the hair loss medicine….
How could he give up on the shiny hair he had desired so dearly until now?
For the Emperor who was experiencing losing his hair in real-time, it was a sweet temptation.
“I promise!”
“And?”
“…?”
“?”
“And what? What…?”
“Isn’t that what I said???”
Juddak scowled as if he was pathetic.
“Just receive a gift and wipe your mouth? This won’t even last two weeks if you try it. Are you planning to ask for the next thing as well?”
“That is…”
“You’re done, I need to get compensation for the repulsive sin you committed today, luring women and subtly threatening.”
“What nonsense are you talking about…!”
“No, I mean, you have to give more.”
“Cough…! A worm that flesh crawls at the sight approaches. Try if you dare!”
“Hmm. Seems like you don’t realize your situation. “
“?”
“Trying to get medicine for free is repulsive. Let’s see if you can withstand a scolding.”
“You dare to scold me, the Emperor?”
“Don’t you think it might work? Just wait. I’ll lie to the hero that I got hit by you.”
“Wait!!!!!”
At this moment, the Emperor remembered Juddak’s illustrious gallery history.
Juddak’s actions, shaking the continent while calmly posting ‘ㅋㅋ ㅈㅅ ㅋㅋ’ on the gallery…!
Whether it’s a lie or the truth, there’s no limit to Judak’s nefarious acts.
If the hero moves… the royal palace would be a mess.
This man was really about to wreck this situation.
“What’s with the wait again.”
“I’ll do it. Isn’t it just something to be done! I will pay a fair price!”
“Oh? Then let’s go out first.”
“Why!”
“Can’t we eat first? I’m hungry.”
“Ah.”
Right, it’s time for dinner now.
What scary event might occur if this request wasn’t complied with?
The emperor shivered, imagining things that hadn’t happened yet.
***
The meal was quickly prepared with the emperor’s brief command.
The emperor, the hero and Judak. Just as the three were about to pick up their forks and knives…
“Oh, wait a minute.”
Judak picked up a pen that appeared in mid-air.
“That’s…”
“My ability.”
He held the ballpoint pen purchased with gallery points and slowly began to write on a napkin.
A simple and crude contract, listing only each other’s needs, was completed.
“…Why on a napkin.”
From Noble mtl dot com
“It’s enough as it is.”
A contract written on a napkin for trading a unique and precious medicine.
The content was neatly filled in the small napkin.
————————————————
Renew every three months. Listen to each other’s conditions.
Conditions: Medicine, Peace, Gifts
Contract void if not applicable.
Judak.
The hastily scribbled signature was the perfect final touch to the messy contract.
The Emperor grabbed his pen.
‘But it’s not a loss for us!’
After all, it was difficult to interfere with the kingdom while this jerk was here.
Considering the value paid for the balding remedy… it was not a loss.
Just as the Emperor was about to cheerfully sign, the jerk opened his mouth.
“Oh, that’s right.”
“…What are you trying to say now?”
“There might be side effects to the medicine.”
“There are side effects?”
“It’s nothing major, but it might not suit everyone.”
“What?”
“…!”
Behind the Emperor, the Knight Commander, Ersha’s eyes widened in shock.
