I Became the Youngest Summoner in the Strongest Guild

91. Arcadia

91. Arcadia

Day 1 of celestial realm life.

"In the celestial realm, the Heavenly King's word is law. So wear this."
"I'll fight against unfair treatment!"

Day 2 of celestial realm life.

"Play! Play! Play! Play! Play! Play! Play!"
"Okay! I get it! Please just say it once! Miel!"

Day 3 of celestial realm life.

"Is it finally my turn? I lost to Miel yesterday, but I won't miss out today."
"Michael...? You were with us yesterday too!?"
"I needed time alone with you."

Day 5 of celestial realm life.

"Celestial department, wake up! Wake up!"
"You need to shout louder! Louder!"
"Wake up! Wake up!"

Day 7 of celestial realm life.

"Workers do not compromise!"
"Workers are not parts!"
"Unite! Unite! Unite! Unite! Unite!"
"Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!"

As I was watching the numerous angels shouting unity and struggle with proud eyes, I felt a gaze from somewhere and turned my head to see the Heavenly King staring at me intently.

"I didn't know you'd turn the neutral angels into activists in just a few days."
"We're asserting workers' basic rights!"

She smirked and opened a gate, then threw me in!?

"Come play again sometime."

With those words, my one-week celestial realm life came to an end, and I was able to return to the Red Revolution Group hideout located on the Arcana continent.

The hideout I returned to after a long time was no different from a week ago, but no. One thing was different.

The enormous amount of paperwork piled on the desk had changed.

It had become even more and larger than before.

In a situation that made me sigh just looking at it, I sat in the chair and checked urgent matters first, and there was information that movement had been detected in the magic tower located in Arcadia.

At that moment, the door burst open and the Silver Fox Clan twins entered.

Judging by their twitching lips, is it that?

"They took the bait."
"Call a meeting."

10 minutes later.

The main executives gathered in the conference room, and I started the briefing.

"This time's target is the three magic towers that exist in Arcadia. The key is to wave flags simultaneously, and the key figures have already been recruited."

I stood up, slamming the desk.

"It's time to show Arcadia the taste of revolution."

Among the three magic towers, a protest was currently taking place at the one called the Golden Tower, which was the richest.

"Respect mages' human rights! Respect them!"
"We can't live like this! Guarantee freedom! Guarantee it!"
"We're people too! Does a 7-day work week make sense?"

The main executives were having headaches due to the protesters.

"Why on earth are they doing this!?"
"The tower master is leading them in waving red flags."
"Why is that person waving flags there again!?"

The woman appearing in the video.

A woman with golden shining hair waving a red flag and protesting.

She's the master of the Golden Tower and one of the seven great mages.

But why is she protesting there?

No, what's lacking?

The treatment of tower masters is incredible.

It's to the extent that there's no difference even compared to the empire's emperor.

But why on earth...?

"She's protesting for vacation time. She says she's worked for 30 years without a single vacation..."
"No, back in my day, what's 30 years? You had to work 50 years to get about 3 days of vacation!"

"She says even a 7-day work week is killing her. She works 365 days out of 365..."
"Back in my day! We worked 168 hours a week!"

After saying I'd meet her directly, I went to find the protesting tower master.

"Guarantee mages' human rights! Guarantee them!"
"Guarantee mages' human rights! Guarantee them!"
"Guarantee mages' human rights! Guarantee them!"

The shouting was about to give me a headache.

As I approached the tower master, she spotted the elder and looked at him.

"No, Tower Master! What on earth are you doing!?"

"I want to go on vacation!"
"What vacation!? You've only worked for 30 years!"
"30 years is enough!"

This is the problem with young people these days.

In the old days, they begged to be given work, clinging to our legs, but now they're spoiled...

Just as I was about to tell them to disperse while sighing.

The huge doors of the tower opened, revealing numerous red flags.

Among them were even monsters mixed in.

"Guarantee workers' human rights! Guarantee them!"
"Guarantee workers' human rights! Guarantee them!"
"Guarantee workers' human rights! Guarantee them!"

The voices of the tower master and mages were nothing.

I tried to cast magic while covering my ears from the ear-splitting shouts, but it was useless.

Someone had activated an anti-magic field.

A high-level barrier that even an elder-level mage couldn't do anything about.

"W-what is this..."

At that moment, I heard someone's shoe sounds.

'Tap. Tap.'

Very clearly at that.

Shoe sounds in such a noisy place.

As I looked in the direction of the shoe sounds with blank eyes, I was breathless.

A woman with long, straight jet-black hair, snow-white skin, and ruby-red eyes.

I could see an abyss beyond her pupils, and I knew at a glance.

That woman is not human.

As I was trying to muster courage while grabbing my trembling legs, I heard a voice.

"Impressive. You're still standing while facing our dragon visage."
"Dragon...?"

At my words, she looked at me with curious eyes, then her expression suddenly changed.

And as she stretched out her hand, I felt like a heavy stone was pressing down on me, and in an instant, I knelt and crawled on the ground.

"Cough!"
"How impudent. Dragon... Call me the Dragon King."

I closed my eyes tightly thinking it was the end, but I felt no pain.

The feeling that was pressing down on me until just now disappeared.

At that moment, a girl who looked exactly like the woman appeared and shouted.

"Really! You shouldn't use force! I told you Yuna doesn't like it!?"
"I'm sorry, child. I was wrong."

As the woman was apologizing profusely and the girl was getting angry, another girl approached.

"Now, now, stop fighting and wear this."

And what she held out was a red headband...?

You're giving that to a dragon now? Are you in your right mind? Are you crazy to die?

Just as I was thinking that, an unexpected thing happened.

The dragon obediently wore the headband and shouted with a blushing face.

"Guarantee humans' rights! Guarantee them!"
"Guarantee humans' rights! Guarantee them!"

To think I'd see a dragon shouting to guarantee humans' rights in my lifetime.

It would be a sensation just to report this to an academic society, but the bigger problem is whether they'd believe it.

Even I can't believe it while seeing it with my own eyes, so who would believe it if I reported it?

I'd be lucky if I'm not kicked out of the elder position for having dementia.

I sighed and tried to think of a way to overcome this situation, but there was no way.

Starting with the protests that broke out in the three magic towers, red flags began to wave one by one throughout Arcadia.

Until now, mages worked 7 days a week as standard, and of course didn't receive any additional pay on top of their basic salary.

The news that the tower master hadn't been able to take a vacation for 30 years spread throughout the continent.

Because of this, the community was buzzing like a fish in water.

[There's a workplace where you can't take a vacation for 30 years?]
That would be the magic tower lol

[Comments]
- It's amazing they've endured this long lol
- A workplace that doesn't give a single vacation in 30 years?
- Even the demon realm wouldn't do this lol
- Now who's the devil?
- The celestial realm would be doing this?

[Breaking news: There's a workplace where you can't take a vacation for 300 years.]
Please save me. I changed to the hidden job of angel because they said it was good, but they don't give vacations. Forget vacations, they won't even let me go home! Please save me! I'll be good!

[Comments]
- There's a sucker who changed to angel lol
- Why didn't you change to demon instead lol
- We pray for the deceased.
- But they pay a lot, don't they?
- [Author] I don't have time to spend money...

[No vacation for 300 years VS No vacation for 30 years]
Which would you choose? There's a difference between the former and latter.

[Comments]

- Are you crazy, is this balance for real lol
- Don't bullshit too much lol

There are other people checking the community and confirming the protests happening throughout Arcadia.
They can't go home either.
"Argh! Who's fault is it that we can't go home!"
"C-calm down, Team Leader. We can't go either."
"Even if I go home, my daughter won't recognize me."
