Farming In The Tower Alone [EN]: Chapter 715

The Black Tower, 99th floor.

Flap. Flap.

Ace, the small dragon who was helping Sejun, flew to him. Ace was spying on Eileen for Sejun, without Eileen knowing.

“Puhahaha! Brother-in-law! Sis is sleeping!” Ace said.

Eileen should have been in hibernation, a dragon sleep that lasts for 100 years. Sejun knew he might be gone by the time she woke up if she slept that long.

So, Eileen was taking short naps instead. She slept for only one to three hours at a time.

She could sleep longer, but in the past, ancestors had broken their sleep and found that sleeping for more than 5 hours increased the likelihood of entering a deep sleep.

“Thank you, brother-in-law. Eat this.”

Sejun handed Ace, who had brought the news, some Dragon Chicken.

“Puhahaha! Thanks, brother-in-law!”

Munch munch.

Ace happily ate the Dragon Chicken Sejun gave him, watching over the sleeping Eileen.

He had to let Sejun know when Eileen woke up.

“Brother-in-law, if you get sleepy, eat this too.”

Sejun even prepared popcorn so Ace wouldn’t fall asleep.

He prepared four flavors: salty, caramel, strawberry, and even Churu flavor.

For the record, Churu-flavored popcorn was only popular with Theo, Kkueng, and Baek-tang, but he made it anyway for the sake of variety.

While Eileen slept, Sejun prepared for Eileen’s birthday party.

“Theo, could you grab me more chocolate bricks, please? We’re running low.”

“Puhuhut. Got it, meow! Mud-nim! The great Hybrid Chairman Park needs chocolate bricks, meow! Quickly, give us chocolate bricks, meow!”

Theo, who received Sejun’s instructions, raised his hands to the sky and called for Mud.

Mud received a quest he could not refuse. It was like the ‘System SJC’ that Theo and Sejun used – a system that seemed to be going wrong because of their silly ideas.

A moment later.

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, Mud-nim sent chocolate bricks, meow!”

When Theo took out 100,000 chocolate bricks from his bundle, Sejun hurriedly melted the chocolate and made Eileen’s favorite sweet chocolate cake and chocolate brownies.

Sejun saw strange marks on the chocolate bricks. ‘Patterns now? Mud-nim is working too hard,’ Sejun thought, not understanding that it was a cry for help.

An hour later.

“Brother-in-law! Sis woke up!”

Ace, who was mixing salty and caramel popcorn and eating it deliciously, hurriedly shouted to Sejun and then,

“Sis! Mom is calling you!”

“Huh? Mom is?”

He quickly stopped Eileen from looking at the crystal ball. Eileen always looked into the crystal ball to see Sejun as soon as she woke up. Sejun needed a few moments before she saw what he was doing.

“Everyone, hide quickly!”

“Puhuhut. Got it, meow!”

“Kkyut kkyut kkyut. Yes!”

Kkueng!

Sejun, with the time Ace bought him, hurriedly hid what he was working on with Theo, Iona, and Kkueng in a secret place he had made in the corner of the subspace warehouse.

He had to hide it well because Eileen could also see the subspace warehouse.

And

Kkihihit. Kking!

“[Hehet. Butler! The great Blackie-nim will eat it and hide it!]”

“Why are you eating it?!”

Kking…

“[I was trying to help…]”

Blackie was scolded by Sejun again for putting the food in his belly to get rid of it.

Ace bought Sejun some time.

“Me? I didn’t call you?”

“A.C.E. How dare you lie to your sister?!”

“Puhukk.”

He got a bump on his head as a price for lying to Eileen, but

“Brother-in-law! I didn’t say anything!”

“Puhahaha.”

He was proud of keeping the secret with Sejun.

“Oof. Then shall we harvest some carrots now?”

Sejun stretched as if nothing had happened and went to the carrot field to harvest carrots.

And

“Hehehe. It was a rewarding day.”

It was evening.

“Ah. That was really hectic.”

Sejun opened his mouth in a tired voice, thinking about what had happened earlier.

“-Sejun!”

The great brown dragon, Grave Renma, flew in, shouting Sejun’s name as he was about to eat lunch.

“Renma-nim, what’s wrong?”

“-Sejun, it’s a disaster! Today was the day of the Great Dragons’ Council!”

Today was the 6th Dragon Council meeting, but he had forgotten about it and only remembered it belatedly.

He was tired from working at the Temple of the Creator God, and when he came back, he was resting, so not only Grave but also the other leaders had completely forgotten about it.

Then, since it was the day of the meeting but it was too quiet, the other great brown dragons came to Grave and asked,

“Meeting preparations? Of course, everything is done. I was just going to Sejun to get some food.”

Grave was flustered and hurriedly flew to Sejun.

He couldn’t bring himself to tell the brown dragons, who were full of expectations, that he had forgotten.

Otherwise, a revolt might break out.

“Yes?!”

That’s right!

Sejun, who had been out of his mind lately, remembered at Grave’s words.

“Please wait a moment!”

Sejun had faced many emergencies before, so he had plenty of food ingredients stored. He quickly started making ‘Sejun No. 12’, his special emergency meal, and other dishes.

“Hehe. I finished it in 10 hours.”

Sejun wore a proud expression.

“Everyone, let’s eat.”

Sejun had a late dinner with his party and went straight to bed.

And

“Let’s sleep for only 3 hours and go apologize.”

Kroooooh.

After telling his party, he immediately fell asleep.

Because he was tired from preparing the food today.

Kkirorong.

Eomdorong.

As soon as Sejun fell asleep, the Blackie family also lay down on Sejun’s chest and fell asleep.

However,

“Meow… Chairman Park is weak, this is a disaster, meow.”

“Kkyung… I agree.”

Theo and Iona couldn’t fall asleep right away because they were worried about Sejun.

Press. Press. Press.

Theo massaged Sejun’s face to relieve his fatigue.

He wanted to burn money, but Eileen was managing all of Sejun’s money these days, so there was no money to burn.

Sejun had been forced to get rid of his habit of making emergency funds thanks to Theo.

“Oh, power of magic. Gently wrap around the tired body and relieve the exhaustion. Breath of recovery.”

Iona also relieved Sejun’s fatigue with magic.

A moment later.

Grorong.

Kkyurorong.

Theo and Iona, who had recovered Sejun, took their places on Sejun’s lap and fell fast asleep.

Blackie’s Mental World.

Sejun was late. He had slept for three hours longer than usual.

Taruk grumbled.

“Finally! Where were you?! I’ve been waiting! I thought… I thought something bad might have happened!”

As soon as Sejun appeared, Taruk showed his frustration with a burst of anger.

“Sorry, sorry,” Sejun yawned, stretching. “Just a bit sleepy. Duel? Did we actually *plan* a duel? I thought we were just… meeting.”

Sejun was puzzled by Taruk’s serious tone, wondering if they had actually made a specific appointment to fight.

Taruk’s face flushed slightly. “It’s not… not like that! But a proper enemy should be on time! It’s… it’s just manners for a duel!”

“Okay, okay, Mr. Serious Duelist,” Sejun chuckled. “I promise, next time, I’ll be here bright and early for our… duel.”

Duel time?

Sejun almost laughed. Taruk was acting so serious! He could have just said he was waiting to fight.

Taruk replied curtly to Sejun’s answer.

Taruk: “-Hmph.”

However, the corners of Taruk’s lips turned up slightly, as if he was happy that Sejun promised not to be late.

“Try this.”

Sejun held out a peanut chocolate ball to Taruk. It was a peanut covered in chocolate.

He had made it recently.

Kkuengi and Iona had really liked it, so he thought Taruk, who liked peanuts (?), would also like it.

“What is this?”

Taruk chewed the peanut chocolate ball.

“It’s… edible,” Taruk mumbled, trying to sound unimpressed.

He swallowed the words he almost said, forcing himself to speak in as cold a voice as possible.

Sejun was certain that Taruk found it delicious.

Unlike Taruk’s cold tone, his mouth and eyes showed how much he enjoyed it.

He’s so dishonest.

Or maybe he just doesn’t know how to be honest?

Sejun quietly watched Taruk eat the peanut chocolate balls without a word.

“Why don’t you come with me? If you come to my house, you can eat these every day,” Sejun slyly offered, using the peanut chocolate balls as bait.

At Sejun’s words, Taruk’s hand, rough and cracked like dry earth, paused as he reached for another peanut chocolate ball.

Taruk opened his mouth after a moment. “I don’t want to.”

Two confessions, two rejections.

Sejun felt a surge of determination and decided to bring even more delicious peanut dishes next time.

“Let’s call it a day.”

With that, Sejun defeated Taruk with a combined attack with Theo and greeted the morning.

Later, in the desolate Land of Destruction, Taruk thought about Sejun.

“I want to go!”

Taruk lamented, looking at his clawed hand, wishing it looked different.

He wanted to hold Sejun’s hand and go with him, but he couldn’t be with Sejun.

Several things were holding him back, but the biggest was Sejun’s weakness.

“I wish I could at least meet him…”

Taruk wondered if there was a way for Sejun to approach him without getting hurt.

At that moment, he saw a spirit body hiding in the corner, peeking out and stealing glances at Taruk.

“Heh heh heh. Right. Those guys were here.”

Taruk had an idea when he saw the spirit body.

He rushed over and snatched the spirit body in an instant.

“Hiek! Save me!”

“Heh heh heh. I won’t kill you.”

He swallowed it in one bite.

Taruk swallowed the spirit body like that.

He transferred some of his power to the spirit body.

And sent it out again.

“Heh heh heh. I wonder where the others are?”

Taruk began to diligently search for the spirit bodies that he had deliberately not caught until now.

It was morning on the 99th floor of the Black Tower.

A week had passed since Sejun started preparing for Aileen’s birthday party.

“I’m here.”

“Puhuhoot. I’m here too, meow!”

“Kkyut kkyut kkyut. Hello.”

Today, Sejun only brought Theo and Iona to the Temple of the Creator God.

Kkuengi had gone to work, and Baetbaet and the Blackie family were sleeping in bed.

There was no better place to do something secretly than here.

This place was hidden from Aileen’s gaze, and he could leave the other children behind.

May 5th was Aileen’s birthday, but also Children’s Day.

Sejun was preparing for the birthday party and also preparing gifts for Kkuengi, Baetbaet, and Ace, who were children.

“Blackie is…”

What should I do?

When meeting someone older, he claimed to be 30,000 years old, and when he needed to be younger, he insisted he was 1 year old, having been reborn with a new name.

Blackie, with his super elastic rubber band age.

Well, there’s not much to prepare anyway.

Blackie only needed extremely delicious roasted sweet potato jerky to solve everything, so there wasn’t much to worry about.

He’d have to see how things went. If he stayed still, he wouldn’t get any, and if he was noisy, he’d have to give him some.

Sejun was going to give one more roasted sweet potato jerky to the noisy one, just like giving one more rice cake to the annoying one.

“First, I need to plant the seeds in the Land of Destruction.”

He briefly visited the Land of Destruction and planted 100 seeds of the Pioneer of Destruction through seed creation.

The seeds spat out daily by the Devourers of Destruction, which increased fourfold every day, were now about 1 million, so he needed to increase the number of Pioneers of Destruction to increase the number of Devourers of Destruction more quickly.

Emila and Amur were cleaning up the surroundings, so the area around the waypoint was not dangerous at all.

While he was planting the seeds, the surroundings became noisy.

“What’s going on?”

Sejun went to where the commotion was.

“Huh?!”

A boy who looked about 2 years old was lying naked in the distance.

Sejun couldn’t get close because of the enormous energy the boy was emitting.

“Meow!”

Even with Theo absorbing the energy with all his might, he was barely able to avoid fainting, thanks to Theo.

At that moment, Sejun’s eyes turned golden, his title activated, and the energy pressing down on Sejun greatly decreased.

The title [One Who Watched the Primordial Birth] grasps the essence of existence.

[Child of Creation Tainted by Destruction]
