Chapter 23: The Voting Results (2)


    As expected, a lot of people were looking at him, mainly because he threatened to kill anyone who didnt vote for him. But, there were still some people avoiding his gaze.


    Hey, you over there with the round face!


    Me? Uh, me?


    Why arent you looking at me? You didnt vote for me, did you?


    No, no, I did.


    Dont lie to me. Ive been watching you, and youve been looking elsewhere!


    Jo Joong-sik spent most of his five minutes pressuring people to vote for him, even threatening them, all in the hopes of gaining just one more vote.


    After five minutes, the angel spoke.


    Times up. We had a total of 4,988 votes, and fortunately, there were no stupid humans who forgot to vote. Shall we count the votes?


    A transparent window popped up in front of everyone, disying nicknames and numbers like a real-time voting chart. The numbers kept climbing until the results were announced:


    1st ce: Life is a Documentary (2,412 votes)


    2nd ce: ck Scythe (2,077 votes)


    3rd ce: ck me Dragon on the Right Hand (249 votes)


    4th ce: Puffed Up Bread (6 votes)


    5th ce: Cute Baby Bird (5 votes)


    Jo Joong-sik frowned. He had expected overwhelming results.


    I only got 2,412 votes? And ck Scythe came in second?


    The difference in votes between him and ck Scythe was only 335, a rather close gap that left Jo Joong-sik dissatisfied.


    I told these guys to vote for me, but they secretly voted for ck Scythe instead?


    Jo Joong-sik red at those around him, but there was no way to tell who voted for whom.


    Well, I cant do anything now that the results are out.


    Jo Joong-sik smiled. As long as he won the election, he didnt care about how close the results were.


    Ive be the district representative, just as expected. I now have the powerful authority to control these weaklings like ves!


    Jo Joong-siks gaze turned to ck Scythe.


    You beat 5,000 humans no matter how strong you are.


    If he ordered people to kill ck Scythe, even if he fights back, he would eventually die.


    You bastard. Youll regret not killing me. Hehehe.


    While Jo Joong-sik was inted with anticipation, the angel announced the results.


    Alright, its been decided. The winner, Life is a Documentary, is the district representative!


    No one was happy with the results, as most people only voted for Jo Joong-sik out of fear.


    The only one smiling was Jo Joong-sik himself.


    Hehehe, now everyone has to treat me with absolute respect, or else Ill use my authority to kill you all, you son of bitches.


    His announcement was like that of a dictator, and the faces of the people darkened with shadows.


    Then, as the zone representative, I will grant Life is a Documentary the authority to control people.


    Soon, a message appeared in front of Jo Joong-sik.


    [Congrattions, you have be the district representative.]


    [You have obtained the unique power of the representative, the Power of Command.]


    [You can check the details in the skill section of your status window.]


    Hehe, finally.


    Jo Joong-sik opened the status window with a sly grin.


    There was a new skill added to the list called Control Authority.


    He chuckled as he read the information.


    [Temporary Skill  Control Authority]


    -Effect: You can force yers to obey yourmands.


    The affected yer cannot refuse themand under any circumstances.


    Usage limitation is 10 times, and then the skill will disappear after all uses are consumed.


    You can only give onemand to each yer.


    Note: yers with jobs are immune to this skill.


    .


    Joong-siks smile faded as he read the details.


    Whats this? I can only use it ten times?


    He had thought that he would be able tomand others as much as he wanted.


    Well, its still a powerful skill, but


    He was disappointed to find out that there was a limit to its use.


    Whats thest line? It doesnt work on yers with jobs?


    In other words, those with jobs were immune tomands.


    Of course, Joong-sik had no idea how to obtain a job, so he didnt feel like he should worry about it.


    Well, everyone else is in the same boat.


    If used properly, he could control the situation with his newfound power, as long as he kept the penalty a secret.


    Best of all, he could eliminate his unwantedpetitor, the ck Scythe.


    That damned bastard. Illmand him to give up all of his items andmit suicide. Ah! Wait, it says only onemand can be given to a single yer?


    Joong-siks mouth twisted into a grin.


    Then Ill threaten him to give up all of his items first and thenmand him tomit suicide, that should work. Of course, even if he gives me his items, Ill kill him anyway. Hehehe.


    The thought of being able to eliminate his hated rival made Joong-sikugh involuntarily.


    But hisughter was short-lived because the angel revealed unexpected news.


    Okay, everyone. Youve voted, so its over, right? Well, no. There was a hidden quest this round.


    What are you talking about?


    A hidden quest?


    Ignoring the bewildered onlookers, the angel fluttered its wings.


    Change Jobs Before Voting Time Ends


    Get the Job Change item and acquire your Job!


    Reward: Receive a 50% discount coupon for todays items!


    Whats this?


    A sub-quest?


    People were surprised by the sudden appearance of the quest.


    They couldnt believe there was another quest.


    There was a sub-quest hidden in this round. When you reach level 10, the job changing window will appear Did you not know? Kehehehehe.


    Well, how can we level up when there are no monsters around?


    Someoneined and the angel looked annoyed.


    No monsters? The forest is full of monsters. Hunt in the forest to reach level 10. You can obtain the items you need for the job change by defeating the monsters.


    Ahh


    People sighed, realizing how much time they have wasted.


    Darn it, we werent supposed to argue and waste our time here!


    We should have just gone to the forest to hunt


    If we had done that, we could havepleted the sub-quest and received the reward!


    They all sighed with regret, but it was toote.


    Dont be too disappointed. Anyone can change their job when they reach level 10, so just aim for it in the next round!


    The angel tried tofort the people.


    Moreover, there are only 80,000 people who managed to sessfully change their jobs in the entire world, which is less than 0.01% of the total 9 billion survivors!


    80,000 people?


    So many people have changed their jobs?


    Although it was a small numberpared to the 9 billion survivors in the world, it did not sound small to the yers.


    They felt inferior knowing that there were 80,000 people who had higher levels than them.


    Oh, by the way, theres one job changer in our area too.


    People were surprised by the angels words.


    Theres a job changer?


    Who is it?


    [Shall we find out who it is by looking at the sub-quest results?]


    After a moment, the result of the sub-quest appeared and peoples eyes widened.
