Farming in the Tower Alone [EN]: Chapter 485

Silver Tower, 82nd Floor.

[The Wine Drinking Contest application is closed.]

[Applicants, please gather below the altar.]

[The Wine Drinking Contest will begin in 1 minute.]

“Prepare yourselves!”

“Yes! Winds, be still!”

Queen, the Top Farmer of the Silver Tower, commanded the other wind mages to help weaken the surrounding winds. Queen, known as the ‘Mad Wind Queen’ because of her powerful and sometimes unpredictable wind magic, was strict but fair.

As the wind calmed, the residents of the Silver Tower gathered below the altar to participate in the contest. This Wine Drinking Contest was very important for survival in the tower, because the wine provided much-needed calories in this magical world.

[The contest begins.]

Thud!

Along with the message, a giant grape-shaped bottle, about 20 meters tall and filled with purple wine, appeared before the altar. The giant grape bottle shimmered with purple light.

At the same time, wine glasses filled with wine appeared before the participants.

Gulp. Gulp.

The participants began to gulp down the wine quickly. The sound of gulping wine echoed around the altar.

The emptied glasses were refilled with wine, and at the same time, the wine inside the giant bottle decreased.

The residents grabbed their wine glasses, not for fun, but with serious faces. They gulped down the purple liquid, their throats working hard, each swallow a step closer to having enough energy for the harsh tower.

Wine is a representative high-calorie food. It was to fill up as many calories as possible in a short time to reduce the burden on the wind mages.

When the wine inside the giant bottle ran out and was refilled about 10 times, something happened.

“Hey?! You just gave me a nasty look!”

“What?! Your look was even nastier!”

One by one, residents began to cause trouble, drunk on the wine.

However,

“If you’re done drinking, don’t make a fuss and go to sleep.”

Thwack.

Zzz.

The Mad Wind Queen hit the residents who caused the commotion, and they fell quietly asleep. She uses her power to keep order, but sometimes she seems a bit weary of it all.

Thanks to a few examples, most of the residents quietly drank and went down to the cave to sleep afterwards.

Hmm, maybe I should hit someone to keep order.

Queen sipped wine and scanned the residents with a mad glint in her eyes, wondering if there were any more residents she could hit.

While the wine contest was happening in the Silver Tower, things were even more lively in the Black Tower.

Black Tower, 99th Floor.

[Wine Drinking Contest Ranking]

1st Place – Umawang (1001L) [Black Tower 99th Floor]

2nd Place – Pink Fur (1000L) [Black Tower 99th Floor]

3rd Place – Yuren (700L) [Black Tower 99th Floor]

4th Place – Woochil (200L) [Black Tower 99th Floor]

···

..

.

Moo!

Kroooooh!

Umawang and Pink Fur were competing for first place.

And

“Wooheehee. Want this?”

“Oh my! Thank you, Yuren hyung! Kids, say hello to hyung!”

“Hello, Yuren hyung!”

Yuren, in 3rd place, was turning nearby objects into gold and giving them to the red fox, Beyon, and his subordinates. Yuren had such a drunken habit, and he seemed very happy while doing it.

“Hehehe.”

“Puhuhoot.”

Sejun and Theo grinned slyly as they watched Yuren.

[Hehe. Hehe.]

Fire was sitting on Sejun’s shoulder, mimicking Sejun’s laughter.

Goohehehe. Gooeng!

[Hehehe. Delicious!]

Gooeng was sitting on Sejun’s butt, happily drinking something. It was grape juice that Sejun had made for Gooeng, who was underage and couldn’t participate in the contest.

Keeheet. Squeak! Squeak!

[Heehee. Delicious! Everyone, eat a lot!]

Ask for more after eating!

In front of Sejun, Blackie and his subordinates, who had just woken up, were diligently eating dried sweet potatoes.

“Blackie, eat slowly. I’ll give you more.”

Squeak?! Squeak!

[Really?! Then give it to me first!]

“Okay.”

As Sejun brought a huge basket full of dried sweet potatoes made by Sejun No. 1, a helpful machine, Blackie’s eyes lit up.

Keeheet. Squeak!

[Heehee. Everyone, sneak it away!]

Blackie pretended to eat while secretly smuggling dried sweet potatoes to the secret warehouse with his subordinates.

‘I knew it.’

No. I give it to you every day, so why are you taking it separately?

Sejun looked at Blackie as if he couldn’t understand.

Blackie, it’s okay if you like it.

He gave up trying to understand and watched the contest again.

Sejun drank a moderate amount of wine and gave up on the contest. The wine tasted okay, but it wasn’t as good as the wine made from Podori’s grapes, and it was difficult to be in the top 100, so he only drank enough to feel good.

If he got drunk and started running around, it would affect his condition tomorrow.

Sejun was preparing in his own way to meet Aileen tomorrow. He was excited and a little nervous. He often thought about her beauty.

While Sejun and his party were sitting peacefully and watching the contest, Sejun’s shadow subordinates were diligently delivering snacks made by Sejun No. 1 to the participants.

As the contest rankings were almost decided, the participants were mixing wine and Samyangju and having a drinking party.

A little later,

“Everyone, let’s go to sleep.”

Sejun, who had been watching the drinking party, took his party home.

Sejun went to bed earlier than usual.

‘I need to sleep early to see Aileen tomorrow.’

That way, my face will be less rotten…

Honestly, I don’t want to admit it, but compared to Aileen, my face has rotted a lot.

No. Aileen’s beauty is too dazzling, so I look relatively ugly…

Sejun lay down on the bed with his party.

Goohehehe. Gooeng!

[Hehehe. I’m so excited to sleep with Daddy!]

Gooeng hugged Sejun’s side and smiled happily. Today, Sejun decided to sleep with Gooeng so that Pink Fur could drink as much as he wanted.

As everyone lay down,

“Theo, Vice President, give me a massage…”

Sejun asked Theo for a massage in a slightly embarrassed voice.

“Puhuhoot. The great Hybrid Corporation Chairman Park, are you finally admitting that your face is rotting?!”

“Shut up. Just give me a massage.”

“Puhuhoot. Just trust Theo, Vice President! I’ll smooth out your wrinkles and make your face less rotten!”

Theo’s massage was strong, digging into Sejun’s cheekbones.

As Theo massaged Sejun’s face with excitement,

Gooeng!

[Gooeng will give Daddy a massage too!]

Gooeng also started massaging Sejun’s body. Gooeng’s tiny paws gently kneaded Sejun’s side.

[Hehet. I’ll do it too! Yap!]

Fire removed Sejun’s waste with the purifying flame and stroked him with leaves. Fire’s leaves felt cool and soothing on his skin.

Keeheet. Squeak?

[Heehee. Is this how you do it? Everyone, run!]

Blackie pressed Sejun’s body a few times with his front paws and then ran around on Sejun’s body with his subordinates. Blackie and his friends’ tiny paws tickled as they ran across his back.

After a little time passed,

Goooroong.

Keeoroong.

Eomroong.

···

..

.

Sejun drifted off to sleep, excited about meeting Aileen tomorrow.

Just then,

Tap. Tap.

“Chairman Park, since my leather is dragon leather too, does that make me a hybrid, nya?”

Theo was next to Sejun and looked at him with sparkling eyes.

“Of course, Theo. Our Vice Chairman Theo is a hybrid too. We can call you Hybrid Theo Park.”

“Fuhu-hut! How exciting, nya! This body is now the right-hand man of the great hybrid Chairman Park! I am the deadly dragon-clawed golden cat hybrid, Theo Park, nya!”

While Theo was happy about having something else in common with Sejun,

‘If I graft myself onto another branch, can I become a hybrid flame?’

‘Bat bat. I want to be a dragon leather… hybrid Bat bat too…’

Flame and Bat bat were listening closely to their conversation.

A moment later,

“Nya…”

“Kku… kku…”

Theo was still very sleepy, and his paws lost their grip.

Plop.

Sejun picked up Theo, placed him on his lap, and said,

“Good night, Vice Chairman Theo. Good night, Kkueng-ie and Blackie too.”

After stroking each of his companions,

Kuh-ooh-uh.

He fell asleep.

Sejun lay asleep, Kkueng-ie curled at his feet, and Theo nestled on his lap. Soft snores filled the quiet space. Moonlight streamed in, casting gentle shadows on their sleeping forms.

While Sejun was asleep,

Moo-uh…

[I lost… ]

Kroooh!

(I won!)

Thud.

Pink Fur barely managed to defeat the Ox King before falling asleep, and the competition ended.

[Rewards will be given to those ranked 1st to 100th in the Grape Wine Drinking Competition.]

The rewards for the competition began to be handed out.

The reward was…

[Exploding Magic Power Golden Grape Wine]

This grape wine increased magic power by 30 when drunk and made it 100% stronger for 1 minute.

Gulp.

The people who got the rewards swallowed hard as they looked at the Exploding Magic Power Golden Grape Wine.

-Everyone stop!

-Hand over the rewards now!

-Don’t even think about trying to steal any.

-If you steal any, you’ll be sorry!

The Four Dragon Society dragons showed up and started collecting the rewards for Sejun.

The Four Dragon Society dragons had called Sejun a ‘mongrel’ before, which made him very upset.

The dragons were able to calm Sejun down by collecting the Grape Wine Drinking Competition rewards for him since he went to bed early.

The dragons were collecting the rewards like that.

-Huh?! One is missing?

-What is this? Are you trying to make fun of us?!

-If we get caught, it’s 100 years for each bottle!

When the rewards weren’t all there, the dragons got angry at the people.

Just then,

“G-Great dragons! I know who’s missing!”

Bayon shouted desperately to the dragons because he was scared.

-Who is it?! Who dares to disobey us?!

“It’s… Kwin from the 82nd floor of the Silver Tower…”

[99th place – Kwin (70L) [Silver Tower 82nd floor]

Bayon showed the name of Kwin, who was 99th in the Grape Wine Drinking Competition.

-Ugh, the Silver Tower? That’s so far!

-Do we have to go?

-It’s a promise with Sejun.

-It’s annoying, but we have no choice.

The Four Dragon Society decided to go to the Silver Tower.

-But who’s going?

-Of course, it’s Kaiser, who first called Sejun a mongrel.

-What?! You guys nodded too! You’re worse for agreeing!

-What are you talking about?! We were trying not to say anything, but when you brought it up, Kaiser, we nodded without even thinking!

-Yeah!

-Kaiser, you’re the worst!

-Damn it…

After arguing, Kaiser finally decided to go to the Silver Tower and get the reward back.

While the dragons were dealing with the reward, far away in the Divine Realm, another being was making a decision related to Sejun.

The entrance to the Divine Realm.

“Hmm… where should I go?”

[Seed Shop Headquarters] [Combat Shop Headquarters]

Dark, the God of Darkness, had to choose between two places. Before him were two paths, marked by glowing signs. One sign shimmered with green leaves: [Seed Shop Headquarters]. The other pulsed with red light: [Combat Shop Headquarters].

Dark had been close to the Combat Gods before he was sealed, so he naturally wanted to go to the Combat Shop Headquarters, but…

Park Sejun, the Tower Farmer of the Black Tower? He has six of the nine Tower Farmers working for him… and two of them are dragons!

And why are Kaiser, Kellion, Lamter, and Tia close to the leaders too?! Ah. Alcohol…

Huh?! What’s that?! Fenrir, the wolf hunting the Apostle of Destruction, the 1st Seat who sealed me?! Why is he in the Tower?!

What?! Kuruger and Alice are there… How many Apostles of Destruction are around?!

Dark remembered his past thoughts and worries. He became very troubled.

It was clear that there was no future in the Combat Shop Headquarters, but when he looked at Sejun, he saw a future in the Seed Shop.

Besides…

I can’t resist a temple!

“Guys, I’m sorry.”

Dark betrayed the Combat Gods and went to the Seed Shop Headquarters. Dark thought about Sejun. This Tower Farmer is unusual. He controls dragons and powerful beings. Maybe joining him is the best way to regain my power. Besides… I heard rumors of a powerful temple connected to the Seed Shop. I can’t resist the chance to see it!

The next morning.

“Hum hum hum.”

As soon as Sejun opened his eyes, he started humming.

Today was finally the day he would meet Aileen.

“Aja!”

I will definitely do well today!

Sejun shouted and got up to go outside.

Whirr!

[Sejun, good morning!]

Dalkomi saw Sejun from far away and quickly flew over.

“Yeah. Dalkomi, have you already finished practicing?!”

Whirr! Whirr!

[Yes! Sejun, please eat this! I made it for you!]

Dalkomi gave Sejun a shimmering silver jelly as she asked how he was.

[Perfect Platinum Royal Jelly]

The one the Poisonous Honeybee Queen gave him before was an imperfect Platinum Royal Jelly.

But this one is ‘Perfect’?

Sejun eagerly checked the options, excited by the name of the Royal Jelly.

[Perfect Platinum Royal Jelly]

The Poisonous Honeybee Queen Dalkomi made this Royal Jelly by carefully refining different honey jellies with all her heart for her master’s successful date.

The taste and nutrition of the honey jelly have been improved.

When eaten, all stats increase by 50 and a defensive talent is unlocked.

When eaten, it releases attractive pheromones towards the desired person for one day.

Creator: Poisonous Honeybee Queen Dalkomi

Expiration date: 100 years

Grade: SS

She put so much effort into this for me.

“Dalkomi, thank you.”

Sejun stroked Dalkomi’s back and thanked her.

Whirr! Whirr!

[Yes! Captivate Aileen’s heart with the attractive pheromones!]

“Sejun is… not the most handsome, but even with the pheromones… he has a chance!”

Dalkomi cheered for Sejun.

A moment later.

“Aileen, welcome.”

Everyone’s support
