Farming in the Tower Alone [EN]: Chapter 409

Sejun used the Dragon Return Bracelet to arrive back at his house.

This time, the magic worked perfectly, bringing him to the 99th floor of the Black Tower, not the Green Tower.

Sejun was finally back at the Black Tower.

“Aileen, what’s wrong?”

He quickly called out to Aileen.

[The Tower Administrator says that he will not give you his tasteless cooking anymore, so don’t run away.]

“Huh?! Really? No. What’s wrong with Aileen’s cooking? It’s good. I didn’t run away because of your cooking. I went because I have the land deed for the 1st floor of the Green Tower, and Theo’s luggage…”

Sejun was surprised he said that. He quickly tried to hide his real feelings. Then, he explained to Aileen why he went to the Green Tower.

[The Tower Administrator says he is relieved that you didn’t run away to the Green Tower because of his cooking.]

“Of course. Why would I run away to another tower when Aileen is here?”

Sejun reassured Aileen, trying to calm her worries.

[The Tower Administrator is now depressed, realizing that his cooking is indeed bad.]

He knows now…

“Still, it’s better than the food Oric brings.”

Sejun comforted Aileen, relieved that she seemed okay.

Heh heh heh. Let’s not let Aileen cook anymore. I’ll just eat the food I make.

He lowered his head, pretending to be sad to hide his smile.

However,

[The Tower Administrator is burning with determination to practice cooking even harder and make delicious dishes for you.]

Aileen wasn’t giving up.

“…Okay. I’ll look forward to it!”

Sejun encouraged Aileen, his voice a little gloomy. There’s also the option of not cooking…

Sejun ended his conversation with Aileen.

“Ophelia, come out. Over.”

He called Ophelia, wanting her to send some helpers to the 1st floor of the Green Tower.

[The slave of the Green Tower asks what’s going on.]

“Send some useful helpers to the 1st floor of the Green Tower.”

[She asks what’s happening on the 1st floor of the tower.]

“Ah, I opened a shop on the 1st floor of the tower. I need bodyguards to protect the shop and the Uruuru tribe working there.”

He didn’t mention being a big shot on the 93rd floor. He didn’t want to lose a good source of stats.

[The slave of the Green Tower tells you not to worry.]

[The slave of the Green Tower says she will send some useful subordinates.]

Ophelia agreed to Sejun’s request.

“Ahem. That human is finally asking for help from the capable and great Green Dragon, Ophelia Iolgue. But who should I send?”

Pleased by Sejun’s request, Ophelia thought about who to send to the 1st floor of the tower.

She was the great Green Dragon. Sending weak helpers would be beneath her.

“Alright. I’ve decided on you!”

Ophelia sent the boss of the 99th floor, the boss of the 98th floor, and the boss of the 97th floor to the 1st floor of the tower all at once.

Because they were sent by teleportation magic, there wasn’t any commotion like the Black Minotaur incident in the Black Tower.

The bosses, following Ophelia’s orders, arrived in front of Sejun’s shop.

“Meow? You’ve arrived, meow? Nice to meet you, meow! I am Theo Park, the fatal dragon claw golden cat merchant, helper of the great Black Dragon, meow!”

Theo, who had been waiting for Ophelia’s helpers, greeted them happily and introduced himself.

“I am Agni of Blazing Flames, boss of the 99th floor.”

“I am Cerberus the Hellhound, boss of the 98th floor.”

“I am Egel, the Saintess of Destruction, boss of the 97th floor.”

The bosses also introduced themselves.

Theo tilted his head, whiskers twitching as he looked up at the towering figures. “Meow? Um… you wouldn’t happen to be able to, you know… shrink a bit? Meow?” He gestured with a paw at the tiny shop, almost hidden behind the three bosses.

A deep voice rumbled, “Reduce size? Possible.” That was Agni.

Cerberus, with his three heads, nodded. “Can do.”

Egel, surprisingly, just said quietly, “Me too.”

The bosses reduced their sizes to be similar to Theo’s.

“Hee hee hee. Good, meow! What are you guys good at, meow?”

“I am good with fire.”

Whoosh!

Agni confidently answered Theo’s question, spewing fire.

“Hee hee hee. Good, meow! Agni, you will bake sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn from now on, meow!”

“Yes!”

Theo turned the boss of the 99th floor into a roasted sweet potato vendor.

“I am good at biting.”

“Cerberus, guard the entrance, meow!”

“I am good at beating people up, and I can heal too.”

“Hee hee hee. Good, meow! Egel, you will charge money for healing, meow!”

Cerberus was put to work as a guard, and Egel as a healer.

Hee hee hee. Chairman Park said he believes in me, meow!

I will make this shop the highest-grossing shop in the Green Tower, meow!

Because of Sejun’s one word of belief, a huge change was happening in the Green Tower.

What is this? Ophelia told us to listen to that cat named Theo, so we are listening, but…

The bosses were confused by being employed at the shop.

“Hee hee hee. These are the Uruuru tribe working at our shop, meow! Please protect them well from now on, meow!”

Theo introduced the Uruuru tribe to the bosses.

“Hello!”

“Yes. Nice to meet you.”

The bosses and the Uruuru tribe greeted each other.

“Then, take care, meow!”

Theo said goodbye, opened his luggage, and returned to the Black Tower.

Sejun woke up the next morning.

[The seal of the Earth Jewel has been released.]

[Toga, the God of Stone, who was sealed in the Earth Jewel, is released from the seal.]

[Toga, the God of Stone, repays the one who released his seal.]

[Toga, the God of Stone, repays his kindness by turning 1 pyeong of the road into a stone field.]

The messages appeared.

“…What is this?”

How is a stone field repaying kindness?

“Meow…”

Sejun put Theo, who had come in the early morning, on his lap and went outside to find the stone field.

“Huh?”

The stone field was easy to find.

The stones sparkled like jewels in the sunlight, reflecting many colors.

Should he call them jewel stones? The jewel stones were larger than jewel pebbles.

The larger the stones, the more expensive they are.

“Heh heh heh. Thank you, Toga.”

Sejun collected the jewel stones.

[Toga Road]

-Toga, the God of Stone, rewarded us with heavy jewels. He was a great god.

He created a 2 pyeong Toga Road, twice as large as the road where the jewel stones were.

After making the road,

“Aileen, what about the stone sword I asked you to check last time?”

Sejun asked Aileen as he walked through the farm.

[The Tower Administrator says that you seem to have a talent for gacha as well.]

“Heh heh heh. Is it that good?”

Sejun smiled, not knowing that what he had drawn was a divine artifact.

[The Tower Administrator tells you to be careful as it is heavy.]

“Okay.”

Thud.

A stone sword appeared in front of him and was stuck in the ground.

[Earthly Blade]

“Oh. The name itself gives me a feeling?”

Sejun grabbed the handle of the Earthly Blade and tried to lift it, but it didn’t move.

“What is this?”

Sejun checked the sword’s options while it was stuck in the ground.

[Earthly Blade]

A divine artifact used by Patrick, the God of Earth, in battle.

It is made by compressing a discarded dimension into a blade, so it is very heavy.

You can make it as large as you want by using magic.

When planted in the ground, it charges with the power of the earth and can use the power: Earthly Blade (currently available time: 0.3 seconds).

Usage Restriction: One who is loved by the earth, Strength 50,000 or higher

Creator: Patrick, the God of Earth

Grade: ★★★

“It was a divine artifact. But… was this made to be used?”

Strength 50,000 or higher…

He felt like he needed to talk to Patrick later.

“I’ll just leave it planted.”

Since it was good to charge the power of the earth anyway, Sejun decided to leave the Earthly Blade there.

“It’s convenient. I don’t have to worry about anyone stealing it.”

There was no way there would be thieves on the 99th floor of the tower, but Sejun pretended to be cool.

Sejun left the Earthly Blade behind and headed to the kitchen to make breakfast.

A little later,

Kooeng!

[Daddy, good morning!]

Squeak!

[I’m hungry!]

Kkoenge and Kamang entered the kitchen together.

“Alright. Let’s eat.”

They enjoyed the sausage stir-fry that Sejun had prepared.

Breakfast ended.

Kooeng!

[Kkoenge is going to check on the herbs!]

Kkoenge packed a lunch box and left for the western forest.

Kkirorong.

Fenrir went back to sleep.

“Hee hee hee. Chairman Park, just trust me, meow!”

“Huh?”

Trust what?

Theo shouted loudly, opened his luggage, and left for the Green Tower.

The doors of Sejun’s shop opened on the 1st floor of the Green Tower.

“Give me 10 roasted sweet potatoes and 100 cherry tomatoes!”

“I’ll take 10 steamed corns!”

The hunters, who had skipped breakfast and were waiting for the shop to open, handed over their money and placed their orders.

Sejun’s shop became the most popular place on the 1st floor of the Green Tower.

The chef they hired was highly skilled, so they were able to handle the many orders.

“If you’re injured, get treatment here!”

“A pretty lady will treat you!”

The Uruuru children promoted the newly built treatment center next to the shop.

Soon after, a hunter entered the treatment center, and a line began to form in front of it.

“It’s still not enough, meow!”

Theo watched the hunters from the roof of the shop and thought. At this rate, we can’t become the best shop in the Green Tower, meow!

“You got your ear bitten off by a Locust yesterday. Go get it treated.”

“Should I?”

Theo overheard the hunters’ conversation.

“Locusts, meow!”

Theo had an idea to boost the shop’s sales.

The hunters here must also be suffering from the Locusts’ invasion.

But what about Earth?

“Hee hee hee. Thanks to the great Chairman Park, there are none, meow!”

What is most needed here…

“Of course, it’s the sturdy blade green onions overflowing in the warehouse, meow!”

The Locusts had been completely wiped out on Earth, so there was no need for sturdy blade green onions. They were piling up in the warehouse.

There’s a lot of stock piling up these days, so I can sell them here, meow! I’m so smart, meow!

Theo praised himself, took out the green onions from his luggage.

“Hunters! Are you troubled by the Locusts, meow?! Don’t worry if you have these, meow!”

He shouted towards the hunters.

Locusts were a disaster. The hunters paid attention to Theo.

“Hee hee hee. This is the sturdy blade green onion that wiped out the Locusts that invaded Earth, meow!”

Theo said, waving the sturdy blade green onion.

“What?! You wiped out the Locusts with that piece of grass?!”

“Liar! Do you even know what Locusts eat?!”

The hunters shouted.

“Quiet, meow! Make the dogs quiet, meow!”

Theo said, looking at Cerberus the Hellhound, who was guarding the entrance.

Grrrr.

Cerberus growled at the hunters, increasing in size.

The hunters quickly quieted down.

“This is the sturdy blade green onion approved by Chairman Park and the great Green Dragon Ophelia, meow!”

Theo continued. Ophelia had never even seen the sturdy blade green onion, but since she’s Chairman Park’s helper, it’s okay to use her name a little, meow!

Theo mentioned Ophelia’s name.

“What?! The great Green Dragon?”

“If that’s the case…”

“Can we see the options first?”

“Hee hee hee. Take a look, meow!”

The hunters began to check the options of the green onion.

“So, how much is this?”

The hunters asked for the price.

“Hee hee hee. Hunters, let the auction begin, meow!”

Theo shouted with a smile.
