Chapter 40

“Oh! atomic He still hasn’t returned. wizard But we’ve received good news!”

The Rabbit Butler also broke into a wide smile.

At the mention of the owner of the enormous mansion and the Butlers’ employer, the Cat Butler beamed with delight.

The Butlers wait for the return of their Master, who departed on a long journey, and devote themselves to keeping the mansion in perfect condition.

Throughout the entirety of Clean! matrix Clean! atomic Clean!, the owner of the mansion is mentioned constantly.

To accomplish that, they regularly hire cleaners.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

No matter where they died, the cleaners’ bodies were completely absorbed, leaving behind neither blood, flesh, nor even fragments of bone.

The reason they went to all that trouble was very simple.

The cleaners were fresh sacrifices offered to the mansion.

Whether it was in the garden, the hallways, the bedrooms, the bathrooms, or the basement.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

That was why the Butlers personally selected which cleaners were allowed to enter.

They served as fuel to keep the mansion at the height of its splendor.

However, if someone managed to survive for seven days, they were allowed to leave alive.

Since they always recruited many cleaners, they had no need for the lives of those who survived.

As the player progressed through the game and made a good impression on the Butlers, they would occasionally praise the player and suggest becoming an employee of the mansion.

But there was one ultimate compliment that only appeared when your affinity with both Butlers reached its maximum.

And from time to time, if a cleaner demonstrated exceptional ability, they were officially hired to work at the mansion.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Gunbam. arcade I probably shouldn’t say this, but I’m sure the Master would like you as well.”

It was the only compliment that mentioned the Master.

“If it’s you, Gunbam, even the Master would be pleased. advance I shouldn’t presume to interpret the Master’s will, but with you, I can say it with complete confidence.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

The Master, who was said to have departed on a long journey, had actually disappeared without warning.

After hearing it, conversations related to the Master became unlocked, and it became possible to find small pieces of information scattered throughout the mansion.

He was currently missing.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

He was presented as an extremely important character within the game’s world.

But, strangely enough, throughout the entire game, the Master never appeared.

However, he was an extremely influential figure who held a very high position, so calls and visitors asking about him at the mansion never ceased.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

Not even after completing every ending.

And for someone who was supposedly just a MacGuffin, even in the Hidden Ending, where the Butlers held a banquet for the player, they continued waiting for their missing Master’s return.

Not even once.

The Master never returned to the mansion.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

And now they were saying they had good news related to that Master.

I had a feeling this was extremely important information.

Whenever I thought back on CCC after finishing the game, I was always left with the uncomfortable feeling that something had remained unresolved.

“What happened? aspect Do you already know when he’ll return?”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Unfortunately, no.”

The Cat Butler leaned toward me.

“But you, Gunbam, I’m going to tell you this in secret.”

His metallic head came very close.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

He lowered his voice as much as possible and whispered,

‘Please don’t let it be Earth…’

“We’ve discovered where the Master is!”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

But I held myself back.

I couldn’t act rashly.

I desperately wanted to ask where he was.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

Patiently, I reacted as though I were simply hearing good news about an old friend.

However, the Butlers didn’t answer.

“What a relief. action Then he’ll be returning soon.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Perhaps. anchor Now that you’ve returned, Gunbam.”

Then the Cat Butler said something strange.

They simply looked at one another.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

The Rabbit Butler tapped the air a few times.

The conversation went no further.

They simply changed the subject.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

A translucent blue screen, very similar to a system window, appeared before him.

“Gunbam. abandon Give me your code.”

As he scrolled through the list, the Rabbit Butler muttered in annoyance,

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Yours is the only one I’m missing, Gunbam.”

With a slight movement of his long fingers, he pushed the screen.

On it was a list of unfamiliar characters that, judging by their appearance, had to be codes.

It slid across until it stopped in front of me.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

It was used for interstellar communications.

I frowned slightly and put on the most apologetic expression I could manage.

Naturally, I didn’t have one.

In the universe of CCC, there was a concept called a “code,” similar to a telephone number.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Good heavens!”

“I don’t have a code. meadow I’m sorry.”

The Cat Butler jolted in surprise.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

Still stunned, the Cat Butler asked with perfect courtesy,

Even the Rabbit Butler’s ears twitched in surprise.

“If it isn’t too presumptuous would you allow me to create a code for you?”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

“I see…”

I smiled somewhat awkwardly.

The Cat Butler let out a sigh.

“You have to pay to maintain it. auction Besides, on the planet where I live, hardly anyone uses one.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Gunbam. anchor Sometimes, you must also learn to accept the help of those around you.”

In CCC, the player signed up with the temporary cleaning company because they were poor.

After clearing his throat lightly, he spoke in a more serious tone.

Meanwhile, I clenched my fist to hide my hand, which was soaked in cold sweat.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Did you come to work as a cleaner because of financial difficulties?”

Without realizing it, they ended up applying to a company with a terrible reputation and were forcibly taken to the mansion that every cleaner feared.

So using money as an excuse in this conversation wasn’t unusual.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

The Cat Butler nodded with a serious expression.

“I see…”

“In part.”

He also naturally interpreted the fact that I had arrived through a temporary employment agency as the result of financial hardship.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Huh?”

“Gunbam. accent Don’t work as a cleaner.”

Then the Rabbit Butler spoke up.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

“You’re absolutely right! amber Gunbam, how would you like to work as a Butler?”

“Gunbam should work as a Butler.”

The Cat Butler reacted with great enthusiasm, as though it were an excellent idea.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

The Cat Butler’s voice became much more serious.

I tried to decline the offer carefully.

“Listen to me, Gunbam. airport I know the idea of permanent employment may feel burdensome to you. armor We won’t insist on that. arrow But what would you think about working only during these seven days, until the temporary employment company returns, as the mansion’s apprentice Butler?”

“I appreciate the offer, but…”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

There was no convincing excuse to refuse the offer.

“How could we possibly treat you as nothing more than an ordinary cleaner? aluminum If you truly consider us your friends, don’t force us to do something so cruel.”

In any case, it had already been decided that I would have to remain in CCC for seven days.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

And being an apprentice Butler seemed far more convenient than being an ordinary cleaner, both for gathering information and for helping the Lieutenant Colonel and the Captains.

“You’ve made a wise decision! echo In addition to the salary you’ll receive from the temporary employment company, we’ll also pay you a generous amount. anchor Of course, we should pay you in advance first. amateur Let me make the transfer right now…”

Like the Rabbit Butler, the Cat Butler summoned a translucent window.

“Then I accept. legend Thank you very much.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

Realizing that such a reaction was not very refined, he closed it again, though he continued staring at me.

He opened his mouth slightly when he saw me sitting there without doing anything.

“Don’t you have anywhere to receive a transfer?”

His fingers moved rapidly, but suddenly he froze.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

‘I do have a bank account… just not an interstellar bank account.’

He seemed to be looking at someone who lived on a barbaric planet, completely isolated from civilization and sunk in extreme poverty.

His voice was filled with compassion.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

Although it was unlikely, there was still the possibility that it was connected to the real world.

I still wasn’t sure whether this place was simply the Trial or an entirely separate realm.

And I fully understood that I shouldn’t reveal my personal information to NPCs in a situation like this.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

I had the feeling that if I gave them the wrong information, they’d actually come looking for me in a spaceship.

“Give it to him in cash.”

Besides.

“I suppose that’s for the best.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

In a voice full of pride, he handed me a transparent coin.

“This is the currency created by our Master. galaxy It can be used anywhere in the universe!”

Accepting the Rabbit Butler’s suggestion, the Cat Butler produced something out of thin air.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

I had no idea how much it was worth, but I doubted the Butlers would give me such a trivial amount.

It was about the size of the palm of my hand.

I reacted in surprise.

“This is too much…”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Gunbam! timber Keep it. adapt It’s a favor we’re asking of you.”

“Gunbam. apron Accept it. acoustic It’s a gift.”

The Rabbit Butler brought his face close to mine.

My field of vision was filled with black.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

I definitely didn’t accept it because I was scared.

“…Thank you very much.”

“We never gave gifts to Gunbam. wizard We were always the ones receiving them.”

Inside his mouth, those sharp fangs were clearly visible.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

Dark Star Fragment: A coin minted from the core of an extinguished star. album It can be used throughout the universe. autumn In His glorious name!

But the Butlers were watching me from very close by, so I had no choice but to store it in my inventory.

After reading the description, the coin suddenly felt rather unsettling.

I put the coin away and quickly checked its item description.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

When it had been available, I’d found it annoying.

Now that I needed every bit of information I could get, I actually missed the system.

‘If the system window were still functioning, it definitely would’ve had something to say about this coin.’

‘So this is what they mean by a chicken rib.’

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

The guest room wasn’t designed for the size of a human either.

The two Butlers led me to a guest room on the third floor of the east wing.

It seemed far too luxurious for a mere apprentice Butler, but I felt that if I asked about it, I’d only receive a lecture, so I accepted it without saying anything.

The Butlers’ own rooms were on the ground floor of the main building.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

I could have opened it without using it, but I appreciated the gesture and used it anyway.

The Cat Butler placed a small step stool beside the door for me.

The doorknob was roughly at the level of my face.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

Since neither Butler could leave on the same day the new cleaners arrived, the Cat Butler departed first.

“Don’t forget tonight’s banquet! legend See you later, Gunbam!”

The Rabbit Butler stayed behind to teach me the duties of a Butler.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Gunbam. athlete Here. audit Butler uniform.”

I wondered whether they would fit me.

The clothes he handed me were identical to those worn by the Butlers themselves.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

But since they were classified as an item, the moment I equipped them, they adjusted perfectly to my body.

“Gunbam. artist Good. artist Perfect Butler.”

The Rabbit Butler looked me up and down and immediately began clapping.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Zeta.”

When we arrived, another Footman was assigning cleaning areas to the new cleaners.

Afterward, he took me to the main building.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

“You do something else.”

“Yes, Butler.”

The Rabbit Butler moved Zeta aside and put me in his place.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

They looked just as bewildered.

“Gunbam will do it.”

I looked somewhat awkwardly at the cleaners waiting in front of me.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

The strange thing was that just by looking at each cleaner’s face, I automatically knew their name.

Even though I felt a little uncomfortable, I began performing my first job as a Butler.

It seemed that becoming a temporary Butler had granted me some kind of authority.

The same guy who had traveled with them aboard the spaceship was now standing there dressed as a Butler.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

I assigned some to pull weeds.

“■■■■■ will go to the west wing garden. ■ will go to the first floor of the east wing.”

And I spoke fluently in a language I had never seen in my life.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

Since I knew exactly what work belonged to each area, assigning them was fairly easy.

Those who looked like they had the worst tempers I sent straight to the basement.

Others to clean the chandeliers.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

As I continued assigning tasks amid all those compliments, the Captains finally appeared.

“Gunbam. orbit Good. acquire Perfect Butler.”

The Rabbit Butler remained one step behind me, watching while continuously praising me.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

Mo Haein’s expression was especially grim.

The moment they saw me, both of them froze completely.

‘Captain Mo! alien Captain Kwak!’

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

And I assigned them to the areas I had specifically reserved for them.

I was incredibly happy to see them as well, but I kept my face completely expressionless.

She seemed deeply shaken by the shock.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

On top of that, I assigned them the easiest task—cleaning the hallway floors.

“Sand will go to the second floor of the west wing. portal Cheongroe will go to the second floor of the east wing.”

The hallways were strategic locations.

Both were the safest areas in the entire mansion.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

I separated them because they needed to search for Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno’s location.

They were also the best places for me to find an opportunity to contact them.

If anything happened, they could take shelter in a room or jump through a window into the garden.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

I was about to call the next cleaner when something unexpected happened.

In any case, I had done everything I could under the circumstances.

‘It would be strange for a Butler to take an interest in the assignment of an ordinary cleaner.’

I couldn’t ask the Butlers or the Footmen where he had been assigned.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

Mo Haein’s body bent forward.

But it was already too late.

Mo Haein suddenly covered her mouth and staggered.

Realizing something was wrong, Kwak Hanmuk immediately caught her.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

The sound of vomit splattering onto the marble floor echoed clearly throughout the hall.

“Ugh…!”

Then I heard a voice behind me.

“A defective product has entered.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

His arm passed over my shoulder.

“Gunbam. arrow Don’t worry.”

The Rabbit Butler raised a hand.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

Fwoosh!

“I’ll take care of it.”

The tip of his fingers pointed directly at Mo Haein.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 40 published by TrungTu Reads.

He had fired a beam.

A sharp humming sound rang beside my ears.
