## Chapter 47

**10. You May Cry (4)**

At the current point, the majority of people from other dimensions eventually had no choice but to admit one fact.

Exactly the shocking fact that the dimension called ‘Earth’ is superior to the majority of dimensions.

“...Well, now it's a fact that can't even be denied.”

“Actually, I felt that fact the moment I saw the genre called animation. Should I say I felt a glimpse of genius in creating such a great work of art beyond measure with just a sequence of drawings?”

The majority of people who had already consumed Earth's culture... that is, movies, games, or anime were acknowledging defeat against Earth but.

There was one thing that could be called a kind of last pride that even they couldn't obediently admit.

That was exactly the point that they were overwhelmingly seniors at least when it comes to the site called ‘Dimensional Gallery’.

Even though Cup Noodle-Zwa is one of the hottest figures across all dimensions.

Even so, wasn't he a stranger from the dimension called Earth where ‘Mystery’ did not exist until relatively recently?

On the other hand, ‘Trans-Dimensional Streaming’ was a site where even a Level 9 Archmage or a Dragon called the Sovereign of magic couldn't figure out its operating principle.

As such, we know more about this site.

No matter how much it's us, there was at least one field superior to Earth!

However.

One day, a message window that popped up in front of their eyes without even turning on the blinker shattered their gloomy pride to pieces.

Would this be the feeling of watching a thief copying one's ability just because it's a 'Stand of the same type'.

Naturally, the majority of gallery addicts ended up feeling sadness at the fact that Cup Noodle-Zwa took away even the pride they secretly felt.

However.

They couldn't possibly suppress their curiosity about the newly opened function ‘Subspace Shop’ this time.

It makes sense, wasn't it a newly opened function within Trans-Dimensional Streaming for the first time in a truly long while?

Along with that, they heard merchandise related to unparalleled masterpieces like 「Star Wars」 are even being sold, so they couldn't stay still at all.

This was a phenomenon appearing similarly to the White Lotus Cult Leader, the number 1 in the Martial Arts dimension and the greatest throughout history.

Because she was also living a rewarding life to the extent that her time acting under the nickname ‘WhiteLotusCultIsNotADemonicCult’ was longer than her status as the White Lotus Cult Leader.

“Subspace Shop huh.... That's good. I already had considerable interest in products related to 「Star Wars」 or 「Outlaw」 anyway.”

This is strictly an act of inspecting the ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠main base of Cup Noodle-Zwa, who can be called the main enemy of her Eat-Shit-Gallery life, and gauging his combat power.

She absolutely absolutely didn't intend to access that place because she coveted the lightsaber of 「Star Wars」, or various merchandise of 「Outlaw」!

And-

*Nod.*

Simultaneously with the White Lotus Cult Leader nodding her head, she realized her body had moved from the White Lotus Cult to another place.

“...Spatial teleportation?”

Showing interest for a moment in the spatial teleportation that even she, who entered the realm of absolute, didn't notice.

The Cult Leader's interest began to head towards the space she was standing on with two feet before she knew it.

“Ho-o, this is....”

That place was, to express it in one word, a place that could be called a fairy tale-like world.

「Star Wars」, 「My Creation」, 「Outlaw」, 「Henry Etta」.

Different works each occupied a section respectively.

And that section adopted a concept fitting the corresponding work.

For example, the corner related to 「My Creation」 had everything made of cute blocks.

The corner related to 「Outlaw」 was decorated with an interior reminiscent of an inorganic and cold machine civilization.

Although it was small-scale, should I say it gave a moving feeling as if directly visiting the world inside the corresponding work.

“Not bad. Cup Noodle-Zwa, that guy properly knows how to do fan service for fans who love Earth's works.”

Like that, the White Lotus Cult Leader started roaming here and there in the shop with a very curious expression.

“To think there is such an elaborate keychain? Is this Earth's technological level?”

“An acrylic stand huh.... This, makes me want to have one for some reason?”

“Is this, the lightsaber used by the Space Knights in 「Star Wars」? Hah! Isn't this an unconditionally must-buy item!”

Like that, the Cult Leader, who bought various human rights items that can prove she is a human while roaming the store—

“I activate the Mystery Card, Hero's Sword! I will increase my monster's attack power by 300!”

“Kuhahaha! My 'Knife-Ear Swordsman's attack power is 1800, the attack power of ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠'Servant who became a Skeleton' on your field is a mere 100. What can you do with a mere 100 attack power?”

“I activate the faced-down Surprise Card! Mirror's Protection! I destroy all opposing monsters that attacked!”

“...Hmm?”

Suddenly, she ended up discovering a group of people huddled together playing with cards in a corner of the store.

At first, she thought they gathered in one place to play poker or something.

Even though the Cult Leader is from the Martial Arts World, since her life is a gallery addict, she wasn't ignorant of the cultures of other dimensions.

And in her common sense, the games you can play with cards were only poker types at best.

However-

'What is that?'

That game that entered the Cult Leader's eyes was not poker.

Because that game they were enjoying holding various cards with various pictures drawn on them was something she saw for the first time in her life.

'Tsk, how vulgar.'

To be absorbed in a mere card game shouting loudly in a public place with so many people.

Like that, the Cult Leader clicked her tongue *tsk* and left that spot.

Exactly 1 hour after that.

“Mystery Card, Raigeki (*Noe-seong-byeok-ryeok*). Destroys all monsters on the opponent's field.”

“Ah... No! My monsters! Kuaaaack!”

“Direct attack on you with all monsters on this lady's field. Phew... With this, it's this lady's victory.”

After completely crushing a midget who didn't know his place with one of the sample decks placed in the store, she ended up making a truly refreshing smile.

'Really, Earthlings are genius-like. How on earth did they create such a game?'

An extremely simple rule of summoning strong monsters, defeating enemy monsters, and reducing all of the opponent's life.

However, the existence of 'Mystery' cards and 'Surprise' cards that can be used secretly during the opponent's turn was turning the aspect of the game into something where one couldn't foresee even an inch ahead.

So, to say it in one word-

'It's fun!'

To what extent it was fun.

Even in the atrocious commercial tactic where only a mere 5 cards are contained in one pack.

And all the cards contained in that pack are random.

Would it be easy to understand if I say the desire to build one's own 'deck' sprang up endlessly.

“Random element huh.... That must also be one of the charms of building a deck....”

Saying so, the Cult Leader boldly purchased card packs to compose her own deck and—

“Haaah? What on earth! These garbage-like cards!”

A moment later, looking at the cards she obtained through pack opening, she ended up bursting with rage.

“A card that draws 3 for 0 cost and discards 2? It's garbage itself!”

A Mystery card showing an angel making a gentle smile, 「Blessing of the Archangel」.

Someone might think the effect of this card is good.

But the Cult Leader noticed the fact that this card lowers the deck's value through her unique insight.

Because if you use this card to draw 3 and discard 2, as a result, it means no advantage occurred at all!

Likewise, 「Nightmare's Choice」, which has the effect of 'choose 5 cards from the deck, put only 1 in hand and discard the rest', was the same.

“Traditionally, these kinds of cards only lower the value of the deck.... Phew, garbage cards.”

Among them, the garbage card that made the Cult Leader's heart the most unpleasant was none other than a card called 「Limbs of the Slumbering One」.

「Left Arm of the Slumbering One」

「Right Arm of the Slumbering One」

「Left Leg of the Slumbering One」

「Right Leg of the Slumbering One」

[The left arm/right arm/left leg/right leg of the Slumbering One. Legend has it that if he wakes up from his slumber, he exerts infinite power.]

Stats are garbage, no effect, four cards of rare garbage.

Besides, whether ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠that guy was Guan Yu in his previous life, only his limbs remained and his head was nowhere to be found.

These kinds of cards make one feel dirty even pulling just one, to think I pulled 4 of these as a set!

“Hmph... Useless bug-like cards. In the strongest deck on earth that this lady will compose, there isn't even a place for those kinds of cards to enter.”

Like that, simultaneously with the Cult Leader composing a deck with the strongest power cards like 「White-Eyed Blue Dragon」 or 「Black-Eyed Red Dragon」.

She ended up throwing away cards like 「Blessing of the Archangel」 or 「Limbs of the Slumbering One」 like trash somewhere on the street and—

A while after that.

“...What? A new Earth-made cultural work?”

“An anime with TCG... being sold at the Subspace Shop as the theme?”

A new animation succeeding 「Outlaw」 on Seo-jin's channel.

「King of Duels」 was released to all dimensions.
