Farming in the Tower Alone [EN]: Chapter 627

Brown Tower, 77th Floor.

“Phoo-hoo-hoo.”

Stamp. Stamp.

[You have enslaved 1 being.]

[Due to the effect of >Title: King of Slaves>, all stats increase by 0.02.]

Theo knocked out the Brown Tower people. Sejun stamped their foreheads. Then he said, “If you’re awake, come and eat!”

[You have fed 1 being to satisfaction.]

[Due to the effect of >Title: Saint Who Feeds to Satisfaction>, all stats increase by 0.2.]

He raised his stats once more by feeding the regular employees who woke up after being stamped. Sejun’s stats were steadily climbing. As a bonus, the number remaining to achieve a Great Feat (a big achievement) was also getting closer and closer.

“Oh! This is really delicious!”

“I never knew eating could be so enjoyable!”

“What I’ve been eating until now was garbage compared to Sejun-nim’s cooking!”

It was incredibly rewarding to show the regular employees of the Brown Tower a whole new world of flavor. They had been eating rotten food, then suddenly leaped past the stage of decent food and ate top-level cuisine.

Sejun chuckled, “Hoo-hoo. It’s like going from the deepest, darkest dungeon to the most beautiful heaven in one jump, wouldn’t you say?”

Sejun watched the Brown Tower people eat. Their eyes widened with each bite. Smiles spread across their faces. He puffed out his chest a little, feeling a warm glow inside.

“Nya! Chairman Park is looking tired, nya!” Theo, seeing Sejun like that, rushed over and began kneading Sejun’s face.

[Your soul is greatly enriched by the praise of beings who have opened their eyes to the taste of food.]

[Your mental strength increases by 10.]

Squeak!

[Our Butler is dying!]

Blackie and his friends rushed to help Sejun. They turned his strong feelings into energy to make him stronger.

While Theo and Blackie were taking care of Sejun…

Kkweing?!

[Where do you think you’re running off to?!]

“Kekeke. What do you mean running away…”

Kkweing caught Orik trying to escape and made him plant intellect beans again.

Kkweing!

[If you run away again, you’ll be in trouble!]

“Kekeke. It’s not that I’m running away, but…”

Kkweing! Kkweing!

[You’ll be in trouble for talking back too! This is what trouble looks like!]

Wham!

Bzzzzzt!

Kkweing struck the ground with his Thunder Staff to demonstrate what trouble looked like.

“Yes, sir!” Only then did Orik shut his mouth and start working diligently.

As the days passed, Sejun, who had been enjoying the sweet life of hiring employees and providing meals, reached his limit.

[All stat potentials (how much stronger he can become) have reached their limit.]

[You can no longer acquire stats.]

[All acquired stats will go back down.]

The stat potential, which had been plentiful, was now full, and the stats began to decrease.

“Ugh. Kids, a massage, please…” The reverted stats strengthened his fighting spirit, causing muscle pain.

“Chairman Park is making a funny face, nya! You mustn’t give in to muscle pain, nya!” Theo kneaded Sejun’s face.

Kkweing! Kkweing!

[Daddy, hang in there a little longer! Kkweing will make it not hurt!]

Kkweing also diligently massaged Sejun’s muscles.

Hee hee hee. Squeak! Squeak!

[Hee hee. Butler! Cheer up! Butler is a sunfish, so you have to do this to get stronger!]

Blackie also cheered for Sejun from the side.

“Ugh. Blackie is banned from dried sweet potato for a week.” What came back was a ration restriction.

Squeak!

[Butler is bad!]

Thwack. Thwack.

The enraged Blackie diligently hit Sejun with his front paws, but…

“Aigo. That’s refreshing. Our Blackie is so good at massage~.” He couldn’t beat the master of taunting, Sejun.

Squeak…

[It’s hard···]

Eventually, Blackie, exhausted from being angry alone, climbed onto Sejun’s chest and fell asleep.

In the meantime, Sejun’s Muscle Strengthening skill level increased, raising all stat potentials by 9000.

Cough. Sejun, exhausted from muscle pain, fell into a doze.

Gurgle.

Gurgle.

Theo and Kkweing also fell asleep beside Sejun.

The next morning, the group started their business again. “Alright. Let’s work hard again today!”

“Ugh. Kids~!” In the afternoon, Sejun, whose stats were reverting again and experiencing muscle pain, desperately called out to his companions.

Stamp. Stamp.

So, today again, Sejun’s Muscle Strengthening skill rose another level while receiving massages from his companions, increasing all stat potentials by 11,000.

The next day again, the number of residents visiting the 77th floor of the Brown Tower had greatly decreased. “Not many are coming now.” Those who went to the 77th floor of the tower did not return, which frightened people. The reality was that they weren’t going home because they were too busy eating Sejun’s food.

Sejun finally achieved two Great Feats, making ‘Achieve 5 Great Feats’ into ‘Achieved.’

[You have achieved the Great Feat of commanding 3 million slaves.]

[You have achieved the Great Feat of feeding 3 million people to satisfaction.]

And then…

[Now is the time! Eat this!]

[The time has come!]

[Grow into a World Tree!]

[There are many, so eat a lot!]

Flame Numbers 91, 92, 93, and 95 simultaneously created four World Trees on the 22nd, 54th, 72nd, and 86th floors of the Brown Tower.

[The administrator of the Brown Tower asks in a joyful voice how you managed to grow four World Trees so quickly.] Grave praised Sejun and was greatly pleased.

But it wasn’t yet a Giant Tower. There was a slight miscalculation. Flame thought that Orik, who had been with Sejun, would naturally have become an A-grade Tower Farmer, but Orik was still a B-grade.

“Hey! I told you not to slack off!”

“Kekeke. I’m not slacking off, I’m just lying down for a moment.” Orik’s laziness and reluctance were clear.

Sejun thought, *I have no choice.* Until now, he had waited because other conditions had not been met, but he could no longer allow Orik to tarnish the reputation of 3-Hour Cut Giant Tower Maker Park Sejun. He could no longer wait. Reform Orik’s mind!

“Blackie, keep a close eye on Orik.”

Hee hee hee. Squeak! Squeak!

[Hee hee. Got it! Leave it to the great Blackie-nim!]

Tap tap tap.

Thud.

At Sejun’s words, Blackie stealthily watched Orik, who was resting, and headbutted him.

“Kieeek!” A reaction soon came.

Squeak!

[Orik, deploy!]

“Deploy!” At Blackie’s command, Orik immediately ran to the field and diligently planted beans.

Sejun smiled contentedly as he watched Orik. *He’ll be A-grade soon.*

Herre’s Pawnshop.

[Black Tower Park Sejun’s guardian demigod Earth Dragon Park Toryong has visited to decide on a career path.]

“Welcome! Toryong!”

Herga, the god of merchants, looked up as Toryong entered, wondering what business brought him here.

“Hello, I’m Toryong. I came because I heard my older brother, [Brother’s Name], has been a great help to you. Please accept this small gift to say thank you.”

Thud.

Toryong, who knew Herga had been having a difficult time lately, carefully handed over a box containing 30 bottles of alcohol.

“Oh, wow! Thank you so much! This looks amazing, I can’t wait to try it!”

Herga thanked Toryong and picked up the box of alcohol to examine it.

[Well-aged golden Samyangju]

“Samyangju?”

What is this?

Herga examined the alcohol, which she was seeing for the first time.

And then,

“Oh?! This is?!”

The label said it could increase ‘divine power’ by 100! Herga’s eyes widened. What was ‘divine power’ exactly? And how could alcohol increase it?

She was shocked by the options.

And Sejun’s special brew?!

If it’s a guaranteed Park-made alcohol…

Just drink it!

Gulp. Gulp.

“Krah!”

The taste was also excellent.

“Toryong, listen carefully. From now on, this sister will…”

Herga, feeling the effects of the alcohol, struggled to put her arm around Toryong’s massive body and began to explain the two divine realms they would be going to.

“…and always… always… trust… fuzzy… bunnies! Hic! Did I say bunnies? Or was it… squirrels?”

However, Herga’s alcohol tolerance was low, so the conversation was all over the place.

Sejun was now in the Brown Tower, high up on the 77th floor.

“Can you now make stir-fried pork perfectly?”

“Yes!”

“Good. Then that’s all for today.”

“Thank you for your hard work!”

At Sejun’s words, the Brown Tower employees bowed their heads at 90 degrees.

Today was the third day since Oric received strange ‘mental training’ from Kkamangi and started working hard.

In the meantime, Sejun had nothing to do.

“Sejun, please teach us your cooking!”

Just in time, the employees asked Sejun to teach them how to cook, so he was teaching them one menu per day.

Sejun was spreading proper cooking in the Brown Tower and changing how everyone in the Brown Tower ate.

However, Oric’s problem had not yet been resolved.

It wasn’t that Oric’s farming skills were terrible either. Even Sejun couldn’t find much to criticize.

What’s the problem?

“Kekeke. Grow well.”

Sejun watched Oric, who was planting magical kidney beans with great care, with a sly smile.

That laughter might be the problem…

Although the laughter was very annoying, the kind crops tolerated Oric’s annoying laughter and grew vigorously.

Sejun pondered for a long time while watching Oric like that.

“Oh?!”

Suddenly, something came to mind.

Sejun remembered something he had read about being a ‘Top Farmer Supreme’ – a title he had somehow earned.

“Oric!”

Sejun called Oric to test his hypothesis.

“Kekeke. Sejun, did you call me?”

Oric hurried over. He didn’t want to work, but Sejun called him, so he quickly ran over.

Thump.

Sejun placed his hand on the crown of Oric’s head. He put his hand on the crown of his head because Bozzi did this when transferring skills to him.

And then,

I want to transfer it.

As soon as he thought about transferring his farming skills to Oric,

[Which farming skill would you like to transfer to Oric, the tower farmer of the Brown Tower?]

[Planting Seeds Skill]

[Harvesting Skill]

[Collecting Seeds Skill]

···

..

.

A list of skills that could be transferred appeared.

“Hmm.”

A somewhat disappointing result. You can’t become an A-class tower farmer just by transferring skills.

When Sejun lowered the list with a hopeful heart,

[Training to be a D-Class Farmer]

···

..

.

[Training to be an A-Class Farmer]

“Oh?!”

This is it!

The thing Sejun was looking for appeared at the very bottom.

Sejun immediately selected [Training to be an A-Class Farmer].

[Transferring the Enlightenment of an A-Class Tower Farmer to Oric, the tower farmer of the Brown Tower.]

[The limit of Oric, the tower farmer of the Brown Tower, is B-class.]

[To forcibly raise him to A-class using the Enlightenment of an A-Class Tower Farmer, you must consume 5000 points of his own power.]

[Would you like to transfer?]

Was there a limit to the tower farmer’s grade?

There was a reason why Oric couldn’t become an A-class tower farmer even though he worked so hard.

“Yes. I’ll transfer it.”

Currently, Sejun’s total stats were around 400,000.

Even if 5000 points of his own power were reduced, it wouldn’t have a big impact.

[The grade of Oric, the tower farmer of the Brown Tower, rises to A-class.]

Oric, who received Sejun’s enlightenment, became an A-class tower farmer.

A little later.

[The Tower Manager says in a happy voice that you have worked hard.]

[The Tower Manager says this is the reward he promised.]

Grave, the Brown Tower Manager, who was thrilled that the tower was growing so well, gave Sejun a reward.

“Hehehe. Thank you.”

Sejun received the reward.

“Okay, let’s go back, everyone!”

He took his party and returned to the Black Tower.

And then,

“Kehahaha. Today is a party!”

The great brown dragons held a party to celebrate the growth of the Brown Great Tower, causing the sales of the Yongyong Market to soar once again.

Sejun returned to his home on the 99th floor of the Black Tower.

After telling his friends and family that he was back, he went to find Pink Fur.

“Gguengi, sleep well.”

Gguhehehe. Ggueng!

[Hehehe. Good night, Daddy!]

Kiss.

He said goodnight to Gguengi, returned home, and lay down on the bed.

But what is the limit of my tower farmer?

Sejun suddenly became curious about his own limits.

However,

Kee hee hee. Gging!

[Hee hee. Butler! I’m ready!]

Kkamangi was urging him to go apologize together while holding the energy of the world, so he couldn’t continue thinking.

Kuh-uh-uh.

Goh-roh-roh.

Ggi-roh-roh.

···

..

.

Everyone went to work in Kkamangi’s mental world, and the bedroom was filled with only the sound of snoring.

The starlight in the night sky shone on Sejun and his party, answering Sejun’s question instead.

Not dazzlingly bright, but a soft light that illuminates the darkness.

The light widely illuminated the entire 99th floor of the tower, passed through the cave where Sejun first lived, and entered the pond.

The light that entered the pond gradually weakened, but steadily advanced, passed through the bottom of the pond, and arrived at the Sea of Dimensions.

[Hehet. I’m basking in the same light as Sejun!]

It swam through the Sea of Dimensions and reached Fire.

The light was speaking.

This is you, and if you don’t lose your light and keep moving forward, the limit will disappear.

The stars in the night sky gave their own answer.

[Guardian of Gourmet, Park Sejun, please get stronger quickly!]

Among them, [Delicious] shone particularly brightly, cheering for Sejun.

[Delicious] was greatly impressed by Sejun, who spread the culture of gourmet in the Brown Tower.

And then,

[Like Sejun, I will spread the world of gourmet!]

He decided to shine in other worlds and spread the word about gourmet.

[Delicious]’s limit was also widening.
