Channel 6.
"......."
Lucifer, the God of Light, looked at the Survivor who had confidently answered that he was the God of the Gallery, and burst into a dry laugh.
"The God of the Gallery? If you're going to talk nonsense, at least make it art."
Despite that response, the Survivor looked at Lucifer with sunken eyes and said.
「I'll show you one by one what I can do.」
1:1 video call has ended.
With that, the Survivor ended the video call.
Lucifer didn't care at all about the Survivor's warning.
'I should have made them my lackey.'
He just felt regret that he hadn't been able to make them his lackey.
He had intended to dig up the Survivor's past to maximize their existing suspicions and doubts, making them believe in him, but.
'It didn't work.'
Perhaps they had prepared thoroughly; it didn't work.
'Hm?'
Just then, Lucifer sensed something foreign above his head.
'Are they planning to watch me?'
Lucifer thought this was the Survivor's ability.
It was annoying, but he thought that was as far as it went, and just as he was about to move on,
Temporary position has been revoked by the Integrated Channel Manager.
The Gallery has been completely blocked by the Integrated Channel Manager.
In an instant, the Channel 6 temporary manager status was revoked, and even the Gallery was completely blocked.
"......."
Lucifer opened the Gallery just in case, but there was no response.
The Gallery being completely blocked meant that, just like now, he couldn't use any of the Gallery's functions.
'I didn't expect this.'
The Survivor's Gallery authority was incomparable to the previous Head Admin.
Pop―
'A teddy bear?'
Then, a huge teddy bear the size of a person appeared in front of Lucifer.
Kwaaaaaang!!―
The teddy bear caused a massive explosion, blowing away the entire room Lucifer was in.
'Did they die?'
I thought, watching the explosion of the special teddy bear I made via [Custom Order].
Since it was a bomb made by investing a whopping 100,000 points, the power was considerable.
'As expected.'
The explosion was enough to easily swallow 100 people, but the God of Light was fine.
Naturally, I didn't think he would die from a mere explosion, but seeing him so unscathed was disheartening.
'How can I kill that bastard?'
Anyway, the class system created by the God of Light.
I completely blocked all the white nicknames that correspond to the ruling class there.
'After white was yellow.'
I thought about blocking the status corresponding to professionals too, but decided to leave it for now.
'Anyway, since it said all Gallery functions are prohibited when completely blocked.'
Even if I post an announcement, they won't notice right away.
So, I uploaded the God of Light's real-time video as an announcement and set it to play 24 hours a day.
'If possible, I hope he does something like an orgy again before he notices.'
Then everyone in Channel 6 would see it, so I thought the atmosphere might change.
However, there was one worst-case scenario: the God of Light going berserk and killing everyone.
'If that happens, there's no one who can stop him.'
Naturally, I wouldn't be able to stop the God of Light either.
"......."
"......."
Hm?
Just then, I felt strange gazes, so I turned my head and saw the entire Hero Party staring blankly at me.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
When I asked why, Rubyel asked with a sour face.
"Are you okay? Suddenly saying you're the God of the Gallery?"
"......."
It seems they heard what I said to the God of Light.
It would have been strange if they hadn't, since they were right next to me.
'That bastard, the God of Light, got on my nerves for no reason.'
Naturally, I didn't like talking about my past.
But that bastard, the God of Light, dragged that past out and blabbered about it, so I think I got sharp-edged without realizing it.
"I just said it."
"You didn't catch something from that guy called the God of Light, did you?"
"I don't know about catching anything, but I intend to kill him."
Perhaps because I directly said I would kill someone, the Hero Party looked surprised.
"Was the story about him using humanity as a sacrifice true?"
Elisicia then asked based on the information she heard from Noxir in Channel 6.
"Yes. It seems to be true."
Apart from that, I couldn't understand why the guy who destroyed the world became a temporary manager.
'Are the cause of destruction and the world's influence treated separately?'
Anyway, I turned my head back to the Gallery window and saw the God of Light's face, which had stiffened considerably.
He must know that I can interfere unilaterally, so he must be complicated in many ways.
'But how on earth should I kill him?'
Nickname 'GreenNoxir' has requested a 1:1 chat.
While I was thinking, a 1:1 chat request came from Noxir.
<GreenNoxir(6ch): The explosion that just happened at the Palace of Light. Was that your doing?>
<Survivor★(2ch): Yes.>
<GreenNoxir(6ch): My god. How did you launch an attack of that magnitude from another world?>
<Survivor★(2ch): You can think of it as a Head Admin function.>
<GreenNoxir(6ch): The previous Head Admin couldn't use anything like that.>
Well, that was natural since they hadn't obtained the Integrated Channel Manager authority.
The only thing they could do was communicate with other channels.
<GreenNoxir(6ch): Anyway, will the video of the God of Light in the announcement keep playing?>
<Survivor★(2ch): Yes. You can watch it anytime. For your information, I've completely blocked the God of Light and the people with white status.>
<GreenNoxir(6ch): Completely blocked means......?>
<Survivor★(2ch): To explain simply, I've confiscated their Gallery access.>
In a word, it meant that the God of Light and the people with white status couldn't even enter the Gallery.
<GreenNoxir(6ch): That's amazing.>
Upon learning that fact, Noxir said it was amazing and immediately added a few requests.
<GreenNoxir(6ch): By any chance, can you block yellow too? And I'd like you to block Gallery sharing as well.>
<Survivor★(2ch): Yellow is one thing, but Gallery sharing?>
<GreenNoxir(6ch): Yes. From now on, the white and yellow status people will use other people's Galleries.>
It was a method of using someone else's Gallery if they couldn't use their own.
'Come to think of it, Channel 6 has clearly divided statuses.'
If the status is much more absolute than I thought, the people below wouldn't even be able to refuse.
Therefore, it seemed like Noxir asked me to block Gallery sharing to cut off even that possibility.
'Can I specifically block just the Gallery sharing function?'
When I looked for it while thinking, fortunately, it was there.
Locking the 'Gallery Sharing' function for Channel 6.
And I also selected everyone with yellow in front of their nicknames and completely blocked them all.
<Survivor★(2ch): Done.>
<GreenNoxir(6ch): Thank you. This will make it much easier to operate.>
It's good that operating is easier, but the fundamental problem hasn't been solved.
<Survivor★(2ch): More than that, how are you going to get rid of the God of Light? I heard the previous Head Admin stabbed a knife into his neck, but failed.>
Not only that, he was fine even after being hit by a bomb made with a whopping 100,000 points.
I don't know about other things, but his immortality ability alone was enough that it wouldn't be strange to consider him a real god.
<GreenNoxir(6ch): Regarding that, I have investigated something so far.>
<Survivor★(2ch): Investigated?>
<GreenNoxir(6ch): Yes. The God of Light absorbed the power of souls from countless people, but a mere human body and soul cannot contain that power.>
"......."
Listening to Noxir, it means the God of Light has absorbed the soul power of at least 1.7 billion people.
I don't know anything about that part, but I knew the fact that 1.7 billion is a huge number.
<Survivor★(2ch): Do you mean there is something that contains the soul power separately?>
<GreenNoxir(6ch): Yes. After a long investigation, I concluded it was people's faith.>
Faith.......
Certainly, the God of Light also tried to spread faith to other channels through me.
Because of that, he even brought up the idea of joining hands with him, so I could tell he was obsessed with faith.
<Survivor★(2ch): Then what happens if the faith of the people in Channel 6 disappears?>
<GreenNoxir(6ch): I'm not sure either, but I think an opportunity to kill him might come.>
In short, to kill the God of Light, I had to eliminate the faith of the people in Channel 6.
'It's much clearer than attacking recklessly, though.'
How do I eliminate the faith of the people in Channel 6?
'Eliminating the faith of people in Channel 6, where countless praise posts and prayer posts are uploaded every day.'
<GreenNoxir(6ch): And thanks to you, things have become much easier. Even if you just spread it little by little through the Gallery, there will be results.>
Now, in Channel 6, along with the God of Light, people with white and yellow status cannot use the Gallery either.
Furthermore, since sharing is disabled, they can't even see other people's Galleries, so it seemed like they could spread it with relative peace of mind.
<Survivor★(2ch): What if someone among the green people tells on us?>
If Noxir spreads it, someone who knows Noxir could tell on them.
Even if they change their nickname, if they check the posts written previously, they would be able to know it's Noxir.
'Should I also lock the function to check previous posts?'
<GreenNoxir(6ch): For this moment, there is a member who hasn't posted anything on the Gallery until now. That member will spread it instead.>
<Survivor★(2ch): You were more prepared than I thought.>
<GreenNoxir(6ch): Than you thought? What does that mean?>
Well, I thought you were a group with no countermeasures, to the point where secretly distributing flyers was the best you could do.
<Survivor★(2ch): It's nothing. Anyway, spreading it through the Gallery is good, but.......>
Now there's no way to be tracked, and if a member writes the post, anonymity is also guaranteed.
Perhaps spreading it will be free, but it was questionable whether I could eliminate the faith of the people in Channel 6.
'I need something more decisive than that.'
Would people be persuaded and abandon their faith just by posting articles?
Even if it were possible, my thought was that it would be impossible in a day or two.
"......."
What comes to mind right now is becoming a god, just like I told the God of Light.
'If I say I'm another god and give them bread and milk, wouldn't they be persuaded?'
But this had the disadvantage that I would have to keep watching and moving in Channel 6.
<GreenNoxir(6ch): If you don't like it, I'll think of another way.>
<Survivor★(2ch): For now, move safely. I'll think about it too.>
<GreenNoxir(6ch): Yes. Once again, thank you so much. It feels like there's hope now.>
<Survivor★(2ch): Didn't you have hope during the previous Head Admin's time too?>
Since it was none other than time stop, there must have been hope that they could kill the God of Light.
<GreenNoxir(6ch): There was hope then, too. Although it was separate from his personality.>
<Survivor★(2ch): Personality?>
<GreenNoxir(6ch): He acted arrogantly.>
At that, I recalled that the previous Head Admin's nickname was 'Protagonist'.
He must have thought of himself as the protagonist and set his nickname like that, so it seemed to make some sense.
<GreenNoxir(6ch): Of course, he didn't seem like a bad person at his core.>
Noxir answered as if containing a very slight bitterness.
Regardless, the previous Head Admin fought for the resistance, so it might have been a natural reaction.
<GreenNoxir(6ch): Anyway, I'll get going now. I think I'll have to move busily for a while.>
<Survivor★(2ch): Yes. Once again, move safely.>
With that, I ended the 1:1 chat with Noxir.
Then, continuing my thoughts from a moment ago, I pondered how to make the people of Channel 6 abandon their faith.
'Hm.'
Should I ask Mr. Know-It-All?
Since nothing came to mind, I turned my thoughts to asking someone else.
And I wondered what it would be like to ask Mr. Know-It-All, whom I consider the smartest person I know.
'Since I thought of it, let's ask.'
Without worrying needlessly, I immediately contacted Mr. Know-It-All.
