Farming in the Tower Alone [EN]: Chapter 436

Oh, no! The house is getting farther away!

Piyot was busy collecting money for Yuren. He wanted to become Theo’s best helper.

Heh heh! I collected 1 billion Top Coins today!

Piyot worked hard to get money. He found someone who said they were poor, but Piyot found their hidden money and took it.

Theo will be pleased, right?!

Happy, Piyot headed towards the 99th floor of the Black Tower, where Theo was.

However, something was much harder than collecting Yuren’s money.

Piyot!

[Yuren is so unlucky!]

“Squeak! Sorry!”

No matter where Yuren went, they kept running into pieces of the Apostles of Destruction.

They met many different Apostles of Destruction. They seemed to have met almost all of them, from the 3rd Seat to the 12th Seat, at least once.

If the two of them worked together, they could beat one easily. But three? That was much harder!

Melpix, the 4th Seat of the Apostles of Destruction, the Demon of Ruin.

Kuruger, the 7th Seat of the Apostles of Destruction, the Rock that Destroys Mountains.

Hydra, the 10th Seat of the Apostles of Destruction, the Nine-Headed Serpent.

-Get them! Fenrir smell! I smell Fenrir!

-Stop! Explain the Fenrir’s energy I sense from you!

-Hand over Fenrir’s core fragment!

They were being chased by three Apostles of Destruction.

At first, there were two of them, and they ran. While running, they met one more, making it three.

Like the unlucky Yuren, they always went to places where there were enemies.

At that moment,

-Come to me. Into the arms of Sasha, the Queen of Screams and Ice.

An enemy blocked their path.

Piyot!

[Yuren, breakthrough!]

With their path blocked from both sides, they had to break through.

“Alright! Become gold!”

Yuren ran forward and touched Sasha, and Sasha turned to gold for a moment.

Piyot and Yuren ran while Sasha was gold. When Sasha became normal again, she tried to attack them, BUT then the other Apostles attacked Sasha by mistake! They hit each other!

Piyot and Yuren were able to escape.

Even after escaping the Apostles of Destruction, the two ran for another hour.

Piyot!

[That was really dangerous this time!]

“I know…”

They took a short break.

Piyot?

[But didn’t the Apostles just ask for Fenrir’s core fragment?]

“Yeah. I heard it too.”

Piyot… Piyot?

[Don’t tell me… Yuren, no, right?]

Piyot looked at him with suspicious eyes.

“Me?! No way!”

Yuren shook his two forepaws, strongly denying it.

However,

Could it really be me?

Just in case, he rummaged through his belongings.

And then,

“Piyot, I’m sorry.”

Yuren apologized, taking out Fenrir’s core fragment.

There were some decent-looking stones, and he was planning to turn them into gold later, but Fenrir’s core fragment was mixed in among them.

As expected, an unlucky guy is unlucky no matter what he does.

Piyot! Piyok!!!

[Yuren! %!$@!]

Piyot was very angry. His pure white feathers looked red. He scolded Yuren.

99th floor of the Black Tower.

“Hello.”

“Welcome, Dragon Lords, nya!”

Squawk!

[Hello, Dragon Lords!]

Sejun, Theo, and Kkueng visited the fountain where Kaiser, Kellion, Lamter, and Tier were having a drinking party and greeted them.

-Hahaha. We’re always well as long as our Sejun is healthy.

-Of course! Thanks to our Sejun, our grandson even awakened… Hahaha!

-Puhaha. Our Red Tower has almost returned to normal thanks to our Sejun.

-Our Violet Tower is said to have much better vitality thanks to our Sejun.

The dragons were busy praising Sejun.

Good.

It was a good time to ask for a favor. Actually, it felt like they would say yes to anything!

“Please make a staff with these materials.”

So he boldly stated his business.

-A staff?

-With these materials?

-You, Sejun?

-It will be difficult?

The dragons who checked the materials looked at Sejun with worried eyes.

If the dragons used all the power of these materials, the staff would be too strong for Sejun to use.

Also, it was strange because Sejun didn’t know anything about magic. Why was he asking for a staff he didn’t need?

“It’s not for me, it’s a staff for Iona to use.”

-Ahem. You should have said so earlier.

-Don’t worry!

-We’ll make the best staff!

The dragons took the materials from Sejun and talked about them for a while.

-Good. I’ll guide the magic flow.

-Then I’ll neutralize the Yeti’s heart with my power.

They agreed and stood in four directions, placing the materials in the center.

-Let’s begin.

The four of them poured magic into the materials.

The branch of Podori changed and became a staff.

The Black Pearl of Crushing Gravity, the Yeti’s Heart, the King Giant Worm’s Heart, and the Albatross’s Heart joined together and were put on the head of the staff.

Seven colors of black, white, blue, red, purple, yellow, and silver exploded.

-We made it, and it’s quite excellent.

-Of course. Because we made it.

The dragons praised themselves. The dragons have high standards, so it seemed like a really good item had been made.

[Gravity Staff of Crushing Suppression]

Is it a legend grade?

Sejun wondered as he looked at the name of the staff.

-Here. Take it.

Kaiser gave Sejun the staff with the black jewel in it.

“Thank you.”

Sejun bowed and quickly checked the staff.

[Gravity Staff of Crushing Suppression]

A staff made using the World Tree Branch, the Black Pearl of Crushing Gravity, the Yeti’s Heart, the King Giant Worm’s Heart, and the Albatross’s Heart. It could not become a divine object because it lacks divinity.

Specialized in gravity magic.

The Great Black Dragon and the Great White Dragon created a balance of darkness and light. The Great Red Dragon created a balance between the Yeti’s Heart with the power of fire. The Great Violet Dragon created a balance between the King Giant Worm’s Heart and the Albatross’s Heart with the power of poison.

The staff had power from seven things, and it was connected to two magic flows.

Upon wearing, you can connect with 2 more magic flows.

Who can use it: Only people who are already connected to at least 3 magic flows.

Creator: The Great Dragon Race

Grade: ★

Skill: [Suppression (Master)]

[Suppression (Master)]

Increases the gravity on enemies within 1km. (Gravity increases by 1x for every 1000 difference in magic power between the skill user and the target. Gravity increases up to 50x.)

“Wow.”

It’s a real cheat item.

Just wearing the staff connected him to 2 magic flows, and the skill was too good too.

I’m so jealous.

Sejun was very envious of Iona’s item.

What about me? Make something like that for me too.

Sejun looked at the dragons with hopeful eyes.

Nope. Can’t do it.

We won’t make it for you.

Come back stronger.

The dragons shook their heads.

Even if they tried their best, Sejun couldn’t wear it because it was too strong.

And if they made equipment that Sejun could wear, it would waste materials.

The Dragon Scale Return Bracelet and Summoning Bracelet wasted materials.

Kaiser used a lot of magic power to remove the usage restriction, but the power of the material was reduced.

“Oh, really? That’s too bad…”

Sejun was disappointed by the dragons’ firm attitude.

“Chairman Park, let’s go give the staff to Iona quickly, nya!”

“Okay. I got it. Then we’ll be going.”

At Theo’s urging, Sejun greeted the dragons and decided to go to the Black Tower in the Black Field where Iona was.

As Sejun was about to leave the farm with his group,

Squeak!

[I’ll protect the house!]

Kkamangi said he would protect the house and refused to follow.

Kkamangi was saying admirable things thanks to the mental education.

“You don’t have to protect the house?”

Squeak! Squeak!

[No! Please let me protect the house!]

“Okay. Then I’ll be right back. Take good care of the house.”

Sejun decided to leave Kkamangi behind at Kkamangi’s words, which even felt like a sense of duty.

Hee hee hee. Squeak!

[Hee hee. Goodbye!]

He left with Theo and Kkueng to give the staff to Iona. Kkamangi cheerfully said goodbye.

Top floor of the Black Tower in the Black Field.

Iona’s room.

Rustle.

“Haa.”

“Hoo.”

Only the sound of turning documents and sighs were heard.

“Kkyung. They’re asking to increase the budget again…”

The sound of turning documents was Iona.

“Haa. What was it?”

“I definitely heard it…”

“Hey… show me…”

The sighs were coming from the 10 vice presidents.

Iona had caught all the vice presidents who ran away. Now, she tested them every day on what they learned.

However,

Scritch scritch.

While the vice presidents sighed and tried to answer the questions, Heukster wrote quickly without stopping.

Oh! This is what I learned the day before yesterday! It’s so easy!

Heukster solved the problems Iona gave him very easily.

A moment later,

“Kkyu-kkyu-I clearly told you everything, why can’t you solve this?! Everyone except Heukster, follow me!”

“Yes…”

The 10 vice presidents who did not pass the test were dragged away by Iona.

“Gravity Control!”

“Aargh!”

“Hold on!”

They had to use defensive magic until their magic power ran out and endure Iona’s gravity magic.

While Iona was grilling the 10 vice presidents,

“Huh? Where did Iona go?”

Sejun and his group arrived at Iona’s room.

“Oh! Hello, Sejun.”

Heukster, who was alone creating and solving new problems, greeted Sejun.

“Heukster, how are you doing? Is Iona teaching you magic well?”

“Yes. It’s so much fun! Ah! This is a magic equipment design I made using the magic knowledge I learned from Iona. Please take a look.”

Heukster showed him a design for a device shaped like a box.

What would I know if I looked at it?

“…Can’t you just explain it to me?”

“Ah. This is equipment that eliminates footsteps made using the technology to increase magic efficiency that I learned from Iona. If you wear this, you’ll never be caught when infiltrating. I named it Sound Eater.”

Heukster was making infiltration equipment again, as expected of a master thief.

“The name is not good. Let’s make it Sogaebi.”

“Yes? Sogaebi?”

“Sogaebi… sound and goblin together! Clever, right?”

“Puhuhut. As expected of Chairman Park, nya!”

Kkuhehehe. Squawk!

[Hehehe. Then Kkueng is Honey Goblin!]

“······.”

Iona, please come quickly!

Heukster didn’t answer. That was his way of showing he didn’t like the name.

Sejun’s farm.

Kkamangi was left alone after Sejun left with Theo and Kkueng.

Hee hee hee. Squeak! Squeak!

[Hee hee. Freedom! Now it’s my world!]

He was enjoying the freedom of not having to be aware of Theo and Kkueng.

And then,

Kiki!

Kiki!

The Apostles of Destruction were surrounding Kkamangi and tossing him into the air.

Hee hee hee. Squeak! Squeak!

[Hee hee. Guys, go that way! This way this time!]

Kkamangi stood on top of the Apostles of Destruction and started telling them what to do. The Apostles of Destruction moved according to Kkamangi’s instructions.

At that moment,

Ki?!

As if feeling something, the Apostles of Destruction turned their heads to one side.

Ki! Ki! Ki!

They started running quickly towards that side.

Squeak?!

[Huh?! Guys, where are you going?!]

Kkamangi was riding on the Apostles of Destruction and moving with them.

Squeak! Squeak!

[No! The house is getting farther away!]

And that’s how Kkamangi accidentally left home.
