Became an Archmage That Possessors Were Obsessed With - Chapter 38
38 – Dependence or Obsession
After the war, Pibron Empire briefly advised them on what they should do next. The novel in which Flimia (Holly Trust) and Princess Brainy possessed was titled [The Endless Empire of Slaughter]. It was a battle that suited the title of the novel, but the outcome was completely different.
“Thank you… Thank you so much.”
Bripen, who successfully reunited with his younger brother, hurriedly came to thank me when he heard the news that he would be leaving soon. Teckelomann, the commander of the knights, also bowed his head in greeting, dressed formally.
“It was an honor to fight alongside you, Macderas!”
One by one, people regained their vitality, the battlefield was being restored, and beyond that, the voices of people dreaming of the future. If I could physically feel those things, I was confident.
Now, it was time to go back.
“Are you leaving now? It would be nice if you stayed a few more days… We’re planning to hold a festival after things settle down, so it would be even better if you were here until then…”
Princess Breini asked with a hint of regret, and Macderris nodded his head in agreement.
“I’ll go. The remaining tasks need to be handled by you guys.”
Of course, Choi Ye-bin naturally accompanied Macderris.

If there was anything different about their group, it was that Philemia was standing next to Macderris.
“Philemia, are you leaving too?”
“Yes…”
After contemplating for a long time on her own, Philemia decided to follow Macderris. She wanted to stay here and help the people of the Carolden Empire and the Fibron Empire, but the main reason was that she still felt uneasy whenever she saw the knights of the Carolden Empire struggling to breathe. It was probably due to post-traumatic stress disorder.
And for some reason, she said that the uneasiness disappeared when she was close to me.
Squish…
Philemia grabbed onto my clothes tightly again. Whenever I casually held her hand, she would startle and run away a few times, but now she could hold onto my clothes comfortably as I naturally extended my back and waist to allow her to do so.
“Don’t worry. It’s all over now.”
Philemia nodded her head. When Macderris activated the Administrator Warp function, a huge circle appeared in the air as if it would swallow everything in an instant.
In that moment, Breini hurriedly came to me as if she had remembered something and spoke.
“Oh… I didn’t tell you my community nickname. It’s a fixed nickname, and it’s ‘Queen’ in English.”
“King?”
“Not king, but queen… Queen…”
Macderris looked at Princess Breini, who spoke each letter in English, and laughed. Now is the moment when we can easily talk in such a lighthearted atmosphere.
“Macderris, if you ever need my help, please feel free to tell me. You can leave a comment for me… Oh, right. Can that administrator send messages to users? Can you open a chat room for me with that?”
“Just wait.”
MacDuras clicked the air a few times, and a chat room opened.
Queen: Can you see?
Admin: Yep, I can see.
Braynie looked at me with a slightly surprised expression and asked, “Why do you use this kind of language only in the community when you usually speak well?”
“People wear masks and live in anonymous spaces.”
“Ugh…”
Braynie sighed, but her expression brightened.
“Can I contact you often?”
“Do you have something to say?”
“No… I was just curious about how the Phaibron Empire is going to proceed, so I wanted to share some news.”
“Feel free. But I might not be able to respond because I receive a lot of messages from all over.”
“Well… I understand.”
After exchanging such a short farewell, just as MacDuras was about to move through the portal.
MacDuras whispered something to Princess Braynie as if he had thought of something.
After hearing what he said, Princess Braynie asked him with a puzzled expression, “Why are you telling me to write something like that…?”
“It seems like the people in the virtual community see me as too strange. I asked Choi Ye-bin before, and I heard rumors that she deleted her secondary account.”
“Well… I see…”
Braynie replied with a suspicious tone, but MacDuras smiled warmly.
“If I get the chance, I’ll see you next time.”
[Using the Administrator Warp function, we move to the starting point, ‘The Untalented Magician Dreams of Becoming an Archmage’.]
And so, the long battle came to an end.
— — —
After returning, the first thing I did was check the Mysogal forum. As I looked through the posts, I noticed a prominent name.
[Queen]
Title: The Administrator is a Handsome Alpha Male.
Body: It’s really me. Can you see the verified account? It’s not an alternate account of the Administrator.
ㄴ ㅇㅇ – Can the Administrator create multiple verified accounts?
ㄴ ㅇㅇ – Sick of it. The Administrator disappeared from the forum for a while, and now they’ve created another alternate account?
ㄴ ㅇㅇ – This damn idiot needs to manage the forum properly. He’s doing stupid things.
Unintentionally, Brandy was being teased, but what could be done about it. I satisfactorily pressed the recommend button on that post.
There was a notification, so I checked it. It was a message from Brandy.
Queen: Mr. McDull… You asked me to post it, so I did… but the comments are too harsh…
Administrator: Deal with it. It’s natural for alpha males to dislike handsome alpha males.
Queen: It doesn’t seem like it’s because of that… Can’t we just take it down? It’s too embarrassing.
Administrator: My praise is embarrassing?
Queen: No… It’s just that the wording is too obvious… It’s not like I’m a kid or anything…
Administrator: Hm… This is a bit tricky.
McDull went into Brandy’s post list and registered one of the posts as a popular post.
Popular Post List
[Queen: The administrator is a handsome alpha male.]
The rapid increase in dislikes and critical comments. Brainy urgently contacted me in the chat room.
Queen: Nooo! I made a mistake! Take it down! Please take it down! I can’t delete the post! Please!
Just so you know, unless you’re an administrator, you can’t edit or delete popular posts.
As a punishment for her embarrassment over my praise, Brainy was subjected to 24 hours of popular post status. I didn’t bother to check what she was sending in the chat.
While enjoying some time on the gallery, I received a message from Love Peace.
love peace: Administrator! Why are you only coming now? You should have contacted me first! I’ve been waiting!
Administrator: Ah, sorry, I was busy.
love peace: I’ve been doing a good job managing the bulletin board while you were gone! Please praise me!
Administrator: Thanks, you did well. By the way, you mentioned the Academy entrance exam, right? When you go next time, make sure to bring your magic book.
love peace: Really?! That’s great! Just come before next month!
Administrator: Okay.
Assigning a sub-administrator was not for any other reason.
As I was engaged in a war in the novel Fleamia, I didn’t have time to access the gallery. So, I temporarily granted Love Peace administrator privileges, as we were somewhat acquainted. By the way, Love Peace is a sub-administrator, and the sub-administrator’s privileges are limited to deleting other people’s posts or temporarily or permanently banning them.
Even with those limited privileges, she seemed to be working hard in her own way.
But for some reason, the gallery was flooded with stories about Love Peace, contrary to her proud reaction.
[ㅇㅇ]
Title: Damn it…just block it already…
Body: Blocking profanity 35 times? Why is the block only for one hour at a time? Just ban them permanently if that’s the case. I can’t stand this sh*tty gallery anymore.
ㄴ love peace – The administrator said not to use permanent bans lightly. But swearing is bad! You’re blocked again! Reflect for an hour!
ㄴ ㅇㅇ – Someone please stop this. The gallery might explode at this rate.
ㄴ love peace – No one can stop me! And the gallery won’t explode just because I’m blocked for an hour! I am protecting the peace of the gallery!
ㄴ ㅇㅇ – Sigh… F***… D***… Seriously…
Users who couldn’t even utter a curse out of fear of being blocked looked pitiful. Checking love peace’s block list, I found that they had been blocked a whopping 2007 times. It was a figure that could tell us what had happened in just a few days. It was suspicious whether they had been blocking incessantly without even taking a breath. I immediately sent a message to love peace.
Administrator: You’re losing your sub-admin privileges.
love peace: Uh…? Why!
love peace: Administrator? Suddenly, the block function isn’t working! Please… please give me back my privileges! I was working hard! I was protecting the peace of the gallery…!
Love peace’s nickname quickly turned gray, and the people in the gallery immediately started celebrating.
ㅇㅇ – Wow, that bastard finally got knocked down from power.
[ㅇㅇ]
Title: You can curse freely now. Get banned again, love peace, you b****.
Body: Ban me for an hour again, you son of a b****.
ㄴ love peace – I can’t ban anymore because the administrator function disappeared…
ㄴ ㅇㅇ – Look at this b******, looking all gloomy compared to earlier, lol.
ㄴ ㅇㅇ – Power cut!
ㄴ ㅇㅇ – Now, what can you do other than read our comments and squirm?
ㄴ love peace – I can’t do anything anymore…
[3 users have been blocked for 24 hours.]
No matter how strange her actions were, love peace was someone who listened to my requests and managed diligently. The direction was wrong, but the effort was commendable. That’s why I blocked those who deeply insulted her.
Leaving the burning gallery behind, I checked my newly acquired abilities.
[Leader], [Selective Penalty Release], [Insight], [Possession], [Inherited Memories]
With so many useful abilities, I now had more options when warping to other novels. What I particularly liked was the Selective Penalty Release function. This function allows you to forcibly remove penalties within the abilities.
For example, even if magic usage is prohibited for 24 hours due to the side effects of Administrator Warp, using this function means that some penalties can be removed. I’m not sure about the range and power, but the fact that the risk burden when warping became very low remained unchanged.
Now I don’t have to worry about getting caught by the correction squad no matter where I warp to. There were also abilities like Possession, but I judged that there was no reason to possess another character, so I didn’t have any use for it.
Ignoring the other abilities for now since they are intuitive, I examined the Leader ability in detail.
[Leader: Provides information that helps progress the scenario.]
“Provides information that helps progress the scenario…”
It was a vague meaning. The people in the Milsogal are all those who have possessed others. Therefore, they can also be described as individuals who live through scenarios. But what about me? I wander through various novels. Can there be a fixed scenario?
“Well, different magic can be used in each other’s worlds, and there were many things that couldn’t be understood… scenarios… I’ll find out about them someday.”
I decided not to think deeply about it right now. Even if I think hard, I won’t be able to find out anything. Instead, I confirmed the Leader’s ability to provide information. The Leader was a function that provides information.
From Noble mtl dot com
[A Possessor who needs you exists. Would you like to check the information?]
When I clicked on the message floating in the air, someone’s name appeared.
[trying man]
No other information was displayed.
I searched through the gallery to find information about the person. There was one user who used that nickname consistently.
15 posts in the list
35 comments
Even though he didn’t have much activity, it was a familiar nickname somewhere. The reason became clear when I looked at the posts in the gallery.
But I couldn’t check trying man’s posts. Because someone knocked on the door from outside.
“Come in.”
When I opened the door, I saw Choi Ye-bin wearing pajamas, followed by Flimia, who only had her face sticking out.
I put them in the same room to get closer. Since the room was over 100 square meters, there were individual spaces, so I didn’t think there would be any inconvenience. But looking at Flimia’s expression, it seemed that wasn’t the only reason.
“What’s wrong?”
I was worried if they had fought or something, so I asked, and Flimia couldn’t say anything, and Choi Ye-bin spoke instead.
“She’s scared. She says she feels uneasy when Macdallas is out of sight.”
I walked towards her, pushing the window slightly aside, and asked.
“This place is safer than anywhere else. If I were to exaggerate a little, even all the knights from the novel you possessed couldn’t conquer this place. So don’t worry and go to sleep quickly.”
Flimia shook her head sideways.
“I know that, but… I feel uneasy when Macdallas is out of sight…”
I looked at her sadly.
“What do you want me to do?”
Flimia grabbed the collar of my clothes as usual and spoke.
“Today… can’t we sleep together…?”
I quietly looked at her. Anxious, trembling eyes. Dilated pupils. Sweat dripping. Shaking arms and legs.
Unfortunately, it seemed that she had been broken in many ways through the war.
