[C.G] Ch 196: Perk, Privilege, & Duty
🕑 Added 2025-07-23 22:50:33 +0000 UTC— — — — — —
Every island was millions of kilometers wide. Calling it a "floating island" was honestly selling it short—by Earth standards, it was more like a space continent.
And then there was the glowing white orb: an all-powerful tool that could grant any request, no matter how outrageous, as long as you asked.
With this kind of sandbox-level freedom—basically 'creative mode' unlocked—did anyone besides Merlin have any complaints about Veyron's setup?
Of course not.
Even if someone did want to change something, all they had to do was talk to the orb and tweak it themselves.
So when everyone reconvened in the main palace at the heart of the floating city for a quick "feedback session," the group gave Veyron a unanimous five-star rating.
"Speaking of which," Chika said as she leaned her chin on the roundtable, glancing toward Veyron, "we were all so busy checking out this new shared space yesterday, we totally forgot—what new powers did you unlock after becoming an admin?"
『(Admin) Veyron』: Take a guess. @Earth's Cancer
『Earth's Cancer』: Huh??
"…Wait, Veyron-san, can you change our usernames now?" Chika asked in surprise.
Until now, all of their usernames were auto-generated by the system based on some unknown criteria when they joined the chat group. There wasn't even an option to change them afterward.
"Yeah," Veyron nodded. "That's one of the new admin perks I unlocked."
"Not just that, actually—you guys can now submit your personal info to create custom name cards. Once I approve it, anyone who taps your profile in the group will be able to see what you set up there."
For example, if someone clicked on his icon right now, they'd see his username, real name, group status, and a short self-introduction.
"...Finally," Selena exhaled deeply across the table, visibly relieved. "No more having to look at that painfully misleading nickname of yours."
Back when Veyron first joined the group, it wasn't that weird.
Sure, he could already slice through monsters the size of buildings with glowing crimson sword waves… But the group also had legends like Merlin the archmage, esper-class fighters like Fubuki, and all-around elite women like Hancock and Gwen.
So when the system labeled him "Ordinary Human," everyone just assumed it was some kind of weird bug.
After all, weird nicknames weren't impossible. That one high school girl randomly got tagged with the ultra-edgy title "Earth's Cancer" the moment she joined. No idea what it even meant.
But as Veyron's power skyrocketed, the nickname "Ordinary Human" started to feel downright awkward—especially to Selena.
She wasn't like Harley Quinn, who could say stuff like: "Superheroes and supervillains? Meh. It's Batman—the peak of human potential—who runs DC."
Or: "I don't care how many worlds you've destroyed—if you show up in Gotham, you're still gonna get dragged through the sewers by Batman first."
Shaking off the residual chaos from her bestie's nonsense, Selena submitted her info to Veyron. She kept the name "Catwoman" as her display name, but added her real name, "Selina Kyle," to her profile card.
Everyone else did the same—especially Chika Fujiwara, who'd constantly complained that her system-assigned nickname "Earth's Cancer" made her sound like some mysterious final boss character.
Though, honestly, with her current stats—high base values, spiritual power, a fourth-stage Gene Lock, and a pair of Tenseigan—she kind of was one.
Once everyone finished updating their profile cards, Veyron went on to explain the rest of the perks, responsibilities, and powers that came with being an admin.
◆ Admin Perk: Auto Check-In
Normally, every member had to manually open the check-in menu every day and tap a button to get their daily points—usually between 1 to 3 points per check-in.
But for the admin? That entire step was skipped. The system auto-checks in for him every 24 hours, and each time, it guarantees the maximum payout of 3 points… tripled.
So 9 points a day, just for existing.
Doesn't sound like much at first glance, sure—but that's over 3,000 points a year, even if he literally does nothing. As far as "base salary" goes, it's actually pretty generous.
◆ Admin Privilege: Order Enforcement
Veyron could now enforce group order with tools like mass mute, which silences everyone in the chat, or individual mute, which targets specific members.
And for individual mutes, there were different levels:
•Standard Mute: You just can't talk in the group.
•Punishment Mode: Not only can't you speak, but you also lose access to daily check-ins, the group shop, Gacha, stat upgrades, shared space features—basically, everything.
•Ban Mode: If Punishment Mode isn't enough, this level prevents the person from even viewing the group at all. Complete blackout.
And if even that isn't sufficient?
Well… as long as a vote passes with over 80% approval—where regular members' votes count as 1 and the admin's as 3—they could directly kick someone out of the group entirely.
This completely solved a problem the group had casually brought up before: "What if someone new joins and literally everyone hates them?"
Now, they didn't have to just suffer through it.
◆ Admin Duty: Safety Monitoring
Veyron could now see the life and consciousness status of every group member.
•Life status: Normal, Critical, Dead
•Consciousness status: Awake, Disoriented, Unconscious
If any member was in critical condition or dead—or if they were mentally unstable or had lost consciousness—Veyron could instantly teleport to their world, no restrictions required.
...
In addition to those main features, he also got a handful of other smaller admin tools—like the ability to set custom welcome messages for new members, manage and edit group files, and so on.
No need to list everything in detail.
"Wow… you can kick people out now?" Gwen blinked in surprise. "I figured muting was already the limit. But this admin power's way more serious than I expected."
"Yeah, even though kicking someone technically needs a group vote," Chika added, "if Veyron is the one starting it… would you dare vote against him?"
She balled her fist in front of her mouth and coughed theatrically, then made a sinister expression: "Because let's be real—he could just mute you and start the kick vote at the same time. And worse he can force us girls to—"
"Hey—ow, ow! Take it easy, Veyron!" she yelped mid-sentence.
Veyron had reached out and grabbed one of her cheeks, stretching it like dough as punishment.
"I was helping build your reputation, y'know!" she grumbled, her intimidation routine completely ruined.
After a bit of light teasing and goofing around, someone finally brought up the actual reason everyone had gone on a spending spree yesterday—which had, in turn, triggered the group system's upgrade:
"Now that we've leveled up… does this mean the system can start pulling new people into the group again?"
"Finally! I've been looking forward to some fresh faces and new worlds."
