Farming in the Tower Alone [EN]: Chapter 515

White Tower Administrator Zone.

“Krooooh. Good.”

Kellion, in his dragon form, was happily drinking with other Dragon Lords near the white dragon statue in the Black Tower. *Oooong.*

The administrator’s crystal ball vibrated.

“What is it? Come here.”

Kellion used his magic to bring the crystal ball closer. He saw a message:

[Black Tower’s Top Farmer, Park Sejun, has achieved the great feat of releasing the Seal of the Sun, restoring daylight to the White Tower.]

[By restoring daylight, one of the White Tower’s growth conditions has been met.]

[Four out of five great achievements have been fulfilled for one of the White Tower’s growth conditions: Achieving five great achievements.]

Kellion smiled. This message appeared on his crystal ball, telling him about Sejun’s latest achievement.

“Haha! I knew our Sejun would do a good job.”

Kellion chuckled. “Not only did Sejun make the Black Tower amazing, but now he’s making the White Tower great too!”

So, the remaining White Tower growth conditions are…

[White Tower Growth Conditions (5/8)]

-Top Farmer (S): Not achieved

-Create 5 or more new varieties: Not achieved (0/5)

-Harvest 10 billion or more crops: Not achieved (5.6 billion/10 billion)

-Cultivate 1 million pyeong or more of arable land: Exceeded (7 million pyeong/1 million pyeong)

-Grow the World Tree: Exceeded (Jujube Tree (Unnamed), Coconut Tree (Unnamed))

-Achieve 5 great achievements: Not achieved (4/5)

-Restore Daylight: Achieved

-Increase the number of White Tower entrances to 120: Not achieved (87/120)

Kellion looked at the conditions that weren’t met.

“Five new varieties and 120 entrances are impossible.”

The chances of achieving them are too low.

He also gave up on the S-rank Top Farmer. He didn’t want to make things too hard for Sejun.

“If we harvest 10 billion crops and achieve five great achievements, it can become the White Great Tower.”

He looked at the remaining conditions and made a plan to grow the White Tower.

At that moment,

*Oooong.*

The crystal ball vibrated again, and a message appeared.

[Black Tower’s Top Farmer, Park Sejun, has achieved the great achievement of spreading the Aura of Creation in the White Tower.]

[All five great achievements have been fulfilled for one of the White Tower’s growth conditions: Achieving five great achievements.]

[One of the White Tower’s growth conditions has been met.]

Sejun suddenly remembered something. “Oh!” he thought, slapping his forehead. “I forgot to spread the Aura of Creation here!” He quickly opened the subspace warehouse and spread the Aura of Creation, reducing the stay cost by 0.5%.

Because of this, another great achievement was reached, making it five great achievements. The number of White Tower growth conditions met increased from 5 to 6.

Now, only two White Tower growth conditions remain.

“Haha! I should give our hardworking Sejun a gift.”

Kellion was happy and thought about what gift to give Sejun.

“Hmm…”

Kellion thought hard.

“Wouldn’t armor be good?”

Because he’s a sunfish.

“Should I make something out of my horn? Only the finest dragon horn is good enough for my grandson!”

Kellion touched his horn and started grinding it with his claws to collect horn powder. If he cut off the horn, it would become blunt, ruining his style.

Once he had enough horn powder,

“Gather.”

Kellion gathered the horn powder.

A shield would be good for Sejun, who is physically weak. But Sejun has low agility, so he’s slow, and he’s not good at sensing magic…

Kellion thought about Sejun’s traits and made the horn powder into a round shield.

And

“Subspace, Blink, Size Adjustment, Detection, Levitation, Defense, Defense, Defense, Defense…”

He engraved the necessary magic in Dragon Language and stacked only defense magic until the shield could withstand no more.

“Good. It’s all done.”

Kellion finished the shield he would give to Sejun and said,

“Grandson, come here for a moment.”

He called Ajax to deliver the shield to Sejun. He would be very happy if he told him to deliver this to Sejun.

However,

-Grandfather, I’m busy.

Ajax, who was waiting for the meat party with Sejun, was busy. His heart was.

“I have a gift for Sejun.”

-A gift for Sejun?! I’ll go!

Of course, when he heard about a gift for Sejun, Ajax immediately went to find Kellion.

A little later.

“Grandfather, what’s the gift for Sejun?”

Ajax ran to Kellion with excited eyes.

“This.”

Kellion showed him the pure white shield.

“Oh! Grandfather, make me one just like it too! I want to carry it around with Sejun! Please?”

Ajax asked him to make the same shield for himself.

“Haha! Alright. Wait a moment.”

Kellion felt proud watching Ajax wanting the shield he had made and began to grind his horn again.

As Sejun arrived on the 99th floor of the White Tower,

“Sejun!”

Ajax, who had been waiting, greeted him happily.

It hadn’t been a few hours since they last saw each other, but Ajax’s tail thumped against the stone floor like a happy drum, and he bounced on his paws, eyes shining with excitement.

“Hyung! I missed you!”

“Hyung! Let’s go over there. I’ve prepared everything for the meat party!”

Ajax took Sejun to a clean table set up next to a wide lake, with tableware on it.

Next to the table, there was a brazier and grill ready to cook meat.

“Wow. You really prepared everything? It’s perfect.”

“Of course! I’m the great White Dragon Ajax Mambru! I can prepare a meat party even lying down!”

“Really? Our Ajax is amazing.”

Sejun patted Ajax’s head and praised him.

Sejun thought Ajax’s words were just to express how great his skills were, but Ajax really did it lying down.

At that moment,

“That’s not true! Ajax’s preparations are lacking, meow!”

Theo interjected.

“There’s no grilled fish, meow!”

Because there was no grilled fish.

“Hehe! Of course, there’s grilled fish for you too, Theo. Levitation!”

Ajax used magic, and a huge fish flopped up from the lake.

“Hehe. Ajax, your preparation is perfect, meow!”

Theo also acknowledged Ajax.

“Hehe. My preparation is perfect! That’s right! Sejun, my grandfather told me to give you this.”

Ajax, puffed up with Theo’s praise, handed Sejun a pure white round shield with a diameter of 1 meter.

[Hiding and Guarding Dragon Horn Brother Shield]

“[Hiding and Guarding Dragon Horn Brother Shield]?”

It’s not like I’m a stalker, hiding and guarding. And a brother shield?

‘Then is there a sister shield?’

As Sejun was thinking about the strange name of the shield and was about to check its options,

“Yes! Hyung! It’s a set with this!”

Ajax smiled brightly and took out his shield from his subspace to show it off.

[Hiding and Guarding Dragon Horn Younger Brother Shield]

It’s really a younger brother shield.

While Sejun was looking at the two brother shields that looked like twins, Ajax stared at Sejun with sparkling eyes, putting pressure on him, as if expecting something.

“Hyung, don’t you have anything to say?”

“Oh. To use the same shield as Ajax like this! It’s so great! I’m so happy!”

Sejun’s acting was terrible and very awkward, but Ajax was very happy to hear Sejun’s words.

“Hehe. Right?! I’m so happy to have the same shield as Hyung!”

Fortunately, it seemed that Sejun’s sincerity was conveyed to Ajax despite his poor acting.

“Ajax, tell Kellion that I’ll use it well.”

“Okay! Hyung!”

After Sejun spoke to Ajax, he checked the shield’s options.

[Hiding and Guarding Dragon Horn Brother Shield]

The great White Dragon Kellion Mambru made it by directly casting magic on his horn.

It hides in subspace and protects its owner by itself when it detects a crisis.

The protection magic is stacked 77 times, making it very sturdy.

Set effect when [Hiding and Guarding Dragon Horn Younger Brother Shield] is nearby: The Brother is Strong is activated, increasing the defense power of both shields by 50%, and the Younger Brother Shield also guards the owner of the Brother Shield.

Usage Restriction: Park Sejun, who has been recognized by Kellion Mambru

Creator: Kellion Mambru

Grade: Cannot be measured

“It hides and guards in subspace.”

Sejun thought, “Ah, ‘Hiding and Guarding’… it’s not stalking, it’s protecting. My mistake, little shield.”

Sorry for calling you a stalker.

Sejun apologized to the shield and infused it with magic.

Then,

Shhh.

The shield disappeared into subspace and began to protect Sejun.

“Guys, have fun.”

Sejun let his companions play and began to grill slime meat. The sizzling sound and smoky aroma filled the air.

While Sejun was grilling the meat,

“Hehe. I, Hybrid Theo, the vice president, have defeated the evil whale with the great Hybrid President Park this time and obtained . I, who have the same title as President Park, am the second-in-command, meow!”

Theo started a second-in-command battle, boasting about his and Sejun’s achievements.

Koohehehe. Kooeng! Kooeng!

[Hehehe. Dad said he loves Kooeng even if Kooeng eats a lot and causes accidents! So Kooeng is the second-in-command!]

“Hehe. Look at this! My grandfather made this for me, and Sejun and I are wearing the same shield like this. Cool, right?! So I’m the second-in-command.”

Kooeng and Ajax didn’t back down either.

“No, meow! I’m the second-in-command, meow!”

Kooeng!

[Kooeng is the second-in-command!]

“No! I’m the second-in-command!”

The three didn’t listen to each other and fought until Sejun called them.

A little later.

“Guys, let’s eat!”

When Sejun called,

“Hehe. Okay, meow!”

Kooeng!

“Okay! Hyung!”

The three ate with Sejun as if they had never fought.

Theo consistently ate only grilled fish from beginning to end, but the other companions ate various dishes such as grilled slime meat, slime bulgogi, slime braised in soy sauce, and slime shabu-shabu.

“This time, I’m going to make slime stew.”

As the meat party was heading towards the second half,

Thud. Thud.

A white ogre was approaching Sejun.

[White Tower 99th Floor Boss Ogre King Les]

He was the boss of the 99th floor of the tower.

“Ajax, I brought locust meat.”

“Okay. Thank you.”

Les handed Ajax a small leather pouch.

These days, the White Tower is also planting green onions outside the tower to catch locusts, so Ajax had Les bring locust meat.

“Then I’ll be on my way.”

“Take this and eat it.”

Sejun put food in a container and handed it to Les, who was returning to the waypoint.

“Thank you.”

Les received the food that Sejun handed him and felt a familiar energy.

Fighting Spirit.

A glorious blessing and curse left on the body of the one who killed the warrior of .

It is a blessing because the fighting spirit accumulates and becomes stronger each time it exceeds a certain amount, and it is a curse because ogres chase after the one who killed their kin until they die.

A very faint fighting spirit was felt from Sejun’s body.

Originally, it should have been a little stronger, but it became very weak as Patrick and Hamer took 90% of it.

“Park Sejun. As the king of Vulcan, I will avenge my people according to tradition.”

“Huh?!”

Les raised his energy and swung his fist at Sejun.

Thanks to the sacrifices of his people, he is a king in name only, entrusting himself to the White Tower alone.

He is a poor king who could not save his people, who were not only taken from destruction but also became the sixth disaster.

It is an act of attacking the guest of the great White Dragon who has shown him kindness.

It is against someone who has shown him kindness.

He will die here, but as a king, he had to avenge his people. That is the mission he could fulfill as the king of ogres.

Wham!

As expected, Les’s attack was blocked by the two shields that Kellion had made. Instead, the shield that blocked Les’s brutal attack cracked.

Those guys will forgive me a little now, right?

Les was anticipating his end and smiling bitterly when rough breathing was heard from below.

Huff! Huff!

Kroo! Kroo!

Thwack!

“Ugh!”

Les felt a huge impact on the back of his head and abdomen and lost consciousness.
