16 – Chapter 1. librarian librarian (1)

weekend, saturday.

However, today I am sitting at a desk reading a book on the 2nd basement floor of a library that is rarely visited.

– It’s the weekend, so go out and play!

What doesn’t work is that librarians have to work even on weekends.

The library is closed for one day on weekdays, and Monday and Sunday are my holidays.

In other words, Friday is the last day of work for others, but Saturday is the last day for me.

In the past, I would have lamented the crappy work schedule, but now I rather like it.

It seems like more people will come because it’s the weekend, but when you’re there, people rarely come!

‘The 2nd floor of the basement is honey.’

They don’t invite me to eat with me because it’s a parachute, and they bully me, and even when I’m at work, I’m stuck on the 2nd basement floor of the library, so they only ask me to look at the desk, which is really nice.

Perhaps it was the bullying that started when the Librarian told me not to give me too much work, but I’m not the kind of person who gets stressed out over that.

There is no reason to be stressed.

In front of me are 10 books of literature that I borrowed from the second floor during lunchtime earlier.

‘This is heaven.’

I live as a librarian while reading books throughout the year until they are completed or in a world that is still being serialized.

I won’t be able to live my whole life as a job, but at least I won’t be bored if I continue to work in this library.

what?

When do you work at the library and flirt with the heroines?

That would be a build-up over three years if the main character was eliminated.

‘This year’s goal is to kill the main character.’

You can think about it after killing the main character first.

Even though he has great power, he is corrupted and destroys the earth by dropping a meteorite, even if he dies.

Isn’t it a thing of the future?

It’s not a predetermined fate, so it can change?

what do you know

It’s important to me that I survive.

And if possible, it is also important to return to my original world, to Earth.

So, you have to gather information about the main character, and the position of librarian is surprisingly convenient for gathering information.

It’s a place where you can access students’ data in various ways through a ‘loan card’.

Anyone can access basic data through the database as book lending information is linked to Taegeuk Watch.

Even if you are the president of the academy, you can basically check your name, borrowed books, and book loan history.

‘The problem is that the main character’s information will not be registered in the database until next week.’

As a man named Do Ji-hwan was registered in the database after receiving the Taegeuk Watch a week after starting work, it will take time for the main character to be registered as a freshman at the academy.

then.

‘Until then, you can play while reading books.’

Whether tomorrow’s Sand Monday is the entrance ceremony or not, today I will read a book as a reader….

“I’m looking for a loan.”

“…Well?”

A woman with a slightly familiar face appeared in front of her.

Unlike other ordinary people, her hair color is an intense pink color that clearly says ‘I am a person with special abilities’.

“student president?”

“Yes. My name is Yiseon Yoon, the student council president.”

Student President Isun Yoon.

Although he is quite short at 150cm tall, his ability is quite strong, and he is a being who made the so-called ‘small peppers are spicy’ a reality.

Although the title of student council president is always a position in academies, this woman is also one of the ‘heroes’.

Sneaky little Pinkoo.

That is the public perception, and in reality, he is a very capable being both physically and politically.

Since he is in charge of the student council from the academy high school to the university, he is the so-called ‘student president for life’.

Yoon I-sun was the first to create a student council, and it was Yoon I-sun who organized the student council by appealing to the necessity of the student council.

Even though the student council may be seen as a ‘private organization for people with special abilities’ in the public image, she organized a student council and created numerous events for students because people with special abilities should enjoy their youth.

And those projects naturally became harem light novel events in which the main character and the heroine had a relationship with each other, and Yoon Yi-seon himself fell into the main character’s clutches.

I never expected to meet you here like this.

If I conciliate Yoon Yi-seon, the leader would think very well, but unfortunately, now I am not a goblin, but just Doh Ji-hwan.

“Could you put the book you want to borrow here?”

Yoon I-sun pointed to the four books on the lending machine.

I proceeded with borrowing books calmly and professionally, but I kept feeling Yoon Yi-sun’s gaze.

What. why do you keep looking at me

Could this woman also belong to Baek Seol-hee?

“Ah, yes. Could you put the Taegeuk watch on the recognizer?”

“Yeah.”

Yoon Yi-seon attached her wrist to the Taegeuk Watch reader, similar to a fingerprint reader, placed in front of the desk.

Beep Big.

Soon, her biometric information was displayed on the monitor screen, and the titles of the books she was about to borrow were displayed.

-Mana Theory [Revised and expanded edition] Loan code: 1043666

-How do humans awaken mana? Loan code: 2696149535

…

It’s just books that don’t look like fun.

‘In a world where imagination is power, these books are just purely academic.’

Whether it is natural science or technical science, it stimulates human imagination, but at the same time, there are elements that limit it.

– Dinosaurs can’t fly in space!

-There is no romance, romance.

Most of them visit the humanities corner to improve their abilities, but there are also those who come here for metaphysical exploration of mana itself.

Those who are trying to walk the path of so-called graduate students.

A lot of people of that kind come here.

Yoon Yi-seon is a little like that.

By the way.

“…yes?”

From the outside, there are four volumes, but five volumes are printed.

I looked it up and saw something strange…

“This seems like the first time I’m seeing you, what about the people you worked with before?”

“Ah. He resigned. He quit himself.”

“That’s right…”

It sounds like you’re trying to change something?

As I glanced through the book, Yoon Yi-sun averted my gaze, rolling her pink eyes as if impatient.

“Is the loan done?”

“…Yes. You can borrow for 14 days, and if you wish to extend the period, please apply for an extension at least one day in advance through Taegeuk Watch.”

After answering according to the manual, I checked the title of one of the books she borrowed that I was concerned about.

-How to live without stress

…

I think the student council president is having a hard time too.

I wonder if reading a book like that is stressful, but it’s probably because of the student council rather than the book.

‘It must be a lot of work.’

It would be hard just for the student council work, but it’s not normal hard work when you think of the people who will be entering the school now.

I’m sorry but I can’t help you.

All I can say is to do my best.

“Hey, librarian.”

“Yes?”

“Well, I’m preparing my thesis, so can I have an interview?”

“An interview?”

“Yes. What does the librarian think about mana?”

“I’m a normal person…”

“it’s okay.”

Somehow, Yoon Yi-sun looked quite desperate.

“I just need you to answer a few questions. If you feel uncomfortable…”

“No. It’s okay. I was bored when no one came. Could you wait a minute?”

I lightly handed over the tea using the toilet equipment I had left behind.

It’s a mixed coffee, but this woman unexpectedly likes this mixed coffee.

“Oh, sorry. I drank coffee without asking. Would you like green tea?”

“No. I like that mix. Then, the first question.”

Yun Yi-sun lightly sipped his coffee and asked me.

“Mana started to spread in this world from the moment a meteorite fell from outer space. So, are there other planets where mana is spreading in earnest?”

“Yes.”

It’s a definite answer.

“This is a story of my ‘imagination’. It’s kind of like a conspiracy theory, but would you like to hear it?”

original spoiler.

“What if the meteorite that fell to the ground is not actually from our galaxy?

“Somewhere like Andromeda?”

“It’s similar.”

The meteorite came in 1999.

The first meteorite was observed at the point of Pluto, so no one knows whether it flew through Pluto or departed from Pluto.

I know.

That is, the meteorite from the ‘other world’, Meteor Rain, the Archmage of the 9th Circle, came over to the galaxy of this world through teleportation.

“Because I’m one of those who believe in ‘other world theory’.”

“…Does another world exist?”

“Yes. Mana chunks from another world where mana exists spread throughout the world, and children born after 2000 received that mana from their fetus and became sensitive to mana. The concept of aliens people think is not outside the galaxy, It’s a completely different world.”

“…It’s a fantasy story.”

“I think superpowers are fantasy enough.”

“…….”

Also.

Even though I spoiled the story of the original worldview, it doesn’t seem to have any repercussions seeing the reaction of an intelligent character like Yoon Yi-sun.

“Think about it this way. What if the ‘power of the devil’ that many people talked about in the Middle Ages was actually about mana?”

“…Hah. So you’re saying that by making a contract with the devil, this ability can become stronger?”

“Yes. I think so.”

“Ha. Then you have to make a contract with Satan, Lucifer, or a demon like Belphegor?”

“No. Why do you sign a contract with them? This is Korea.”

this novel.

this world.

“I have to sign a contract with a nine-tailed fox or a compatible mama.”

I’ll say it again, it’s a Gukppong light novel.

And.

This woman is a gumiho.
