Farming in the Tower Alone [EN]: Chapter 640

The Forest of Creation.

[Haha! I finally made a 0.1% Avatar!]

Blaze was happy as she looked at the Blaze No. 200 she had created.

There was still a long way to go, but she was getting better little by little.

[Haha! I need to practice more!]

Just as Blaze was excited to make another Avatar, a voice spoke.

“That’s enough for now.”

The Stone Statue of Trials, which had been quietly watching, finally spoke.

[Huh? What do you mean? It’s not enough yet.]

“No. That’s enough for now. We have to start the trial now.”

The Stone Statue of Trials sounded a little worried.

[Okay…]

Blaze didn’t want to take the test.

Blaze, who had been putting off the trial for as long as possible, replied sadly to the statue’s words.

It wasn’t because she was afraid of the trial, of course.

But if she passed the fourth trial, it would be harder to see Sejun.

Passing the trial would make her stronger, and she would need to practice making weaker Avatars. This would mean less time with Sejun.

“Then, I will begin the fourth trial.”

The Stone Statue of Trials spoke to Blaze in a firm voice.

It would have waited longer if it could, but there was a reason to start the trial quickly.

Someone was messing with the trial area, which was affecting the test.

If this continued, one of the five places for the trial would disappear.

“The fourth trial is about moving the Avatar and turning five empty lands into lands full of life. But, the Avatar can only use up to 5% of the main body’s power.”

[Okay! But where are the five empty lands?]

“The five empty lands are Avian, Sirona…”

The Stone Statue of Trials told Blaze about the five empty lands.

That’s right. The reason Blaze was taking the trial quickly was that Sejun was turning Avian into a land full of life.

And then she realized something.

[Huh?! Avian is where Sejun is!]

Blaze knew everything Sejun did.

Haha! Sejun is helping me. This is a team effort between Sejun and me!

Her sad mood turned happy at the thought of doing the trial with Sejun.

Avian.

“Grow! Grow!”

Sejun wanted to finish before Blackie woke up!

Sejun carefully used his power on Blackie’s bald spot, trying to make the fur grow.

Glug. Glug.

He drank the Life Mugwort Potion.

Even though it was just Blackie’s bald spot, the fur didn’t grow well even after using his power many times, maybe because of Blackie’s special blood.

He thought about hiding the bald spot and giving Blackie corn, which would give him a lot of energy, but it was hard to hide the bald spot, and hard to feed him.

It wasn’t easy to feed corn to Blackie, who really loved sweet potatoes.

It was much easier to just use his power.

After a while, Sejun finished.

“Phew. Done.”

Kee-hee-heet! Squeak!

[He-hee! Butler! The great Blackie has solved it!]

Blackie woke up and barked happily.

And then something strange happened.

Ugh…

Yong-boon’s body turned blue and became ice. It wasn’t a joke; he really turned into ice.

Even though people say that the mind controls the body, turning a lava giant into an ice giant…

Sejun was amazed by what the Blackie family could do.

Should I change his name to Ice-boon?

While he was thinking about silly things, a message appeared.

[You have removed the unknown heat of Avian.]

[Congratulations on the progress of the quest.]

What is this? Is it trying to be sarcastic?

It was a congratulatory message, but Sejun felt bad.

It was a message from [System 371], and no matter how much it praised him, it didn’t sound like praise anymore.

But Yong-boon was an unknown heat, so Sejun was making progress on the quest without even trying.

“Then let’s go catch the Locusts.”

Koohehehe. Kkueng?!

[Hehehe. Then are we having chicken for dinner?!]

“Hehehe. That’s right. And seasoned chicken too.”

Kkueng!

Kkuengi cheered at Sejun’s words.

Yes. That’s the reaction I wanted.

Sejun smiled, happy to see Kkuengi’s reaction.

“Then let’s go.”

“Pooh-hoot. I understand, meow!”

“Kkyut! Kkyut! Kkyut! Yes!”

Kkueng!

Squeak!

Just as Sejun and his group were about to leave to deal with the disaster, Iona looked at Sejun with a question in her eyes.

Sejun, you haven’t forgotten our promise, have you?

And then Sejun spoke.

“Ah. Vice Chairman Theo, please take care of the other side.”

Sejun, seeing Iona’s eyes, gave Theo a mission.

“Meow?! I don’t want to, meow! I’m going to be with Chairman Park, meow!”

Theo, who didn’t want to leave Sejun’s side, refused.

But Sejun had a way to convince him.

“I’m giving you this job because you are Vice Chairman Theo, and I trust you the most.”

“Pooh-hoot. Is that so, meow?! Then I, Vice Chairman Theo, who has the full trust of the great Hybrid Chairman Park, will take care of it, meow!”

Theo was easily convinced by Sejun’s words.

“I’ll send Iona with you, so hurry back.”

“Pooh-hoot. I understand, meow! Iona, let’s go, meow!”

“Kkyut! Kkyut! Kkyut! Yes!”

Sejun sent Iona with Theo, making their date happen.

“Iona, good luck.”

Sejun, thank you!

Iona thanked Sejun, who was cheering for her, and left with Theo to the east.

Today, the disasters of Avian will face not the angry Iona, but the happy Iona.

But being hit by a meteor will still be the same.

“Shall we go too?”

Sejun and his group moved west.

Black Tower, 55th floor.

White Castle, the royal castle of the Red Ribbon Kingdom.

“What?! Yuren has entered the country?! Uncle? Did Uncle come with her?”

Black Moon asked with a serious voice when she heard that Yuren had entered the country.

The truth is, she needed Theo, but since Theo was almost certainly with Sejun, it was the same thing.

“He is not here.”

I had a dream about eating rotten carrots yesterday…

Yuren came on the day I had a bad dream. This is very unlucky.

“Quickly contact the 99th floor of the tower and tell my uncle to come.”

“That… Sejun is not in the Black Tower right now.”

“What?!”

Why does Uncle have to leave the tower now?!

Black Moon was very worried.

At that moment, she heard something.

Kkyuk!

[Please accept my confession!]

Beep. Beep.

[I’m on duty. Get out of the way.]

Kkyuk!

[Then let’s have dinner together later!]

A small electronic sound came, “Beep. Beep.”

“[I have plans. So, please leave quickly.]” Lara sighed, surprised. “Huh?! Master Pposa?”

Lara, a rabbit with sleek black fur and a yellow ribbon in her ear, was trying to focus on her guard duty in the Black Moon Corps. But Ppochhi was hopping around her feet, clearly trying to get her attention.

A few days before, Ppochhi had come to the Red Ribbon Kingdom looking for love. He was tired of being alone and was still searching for a partner with abundant black fur.

As he hopped down the street, he thought, “Where is my ideal type?”

Suddenly, he heard a familiar electronic ‘Beep?’ from a small device on someone’s wrist.

He peeked around a corner and saw Lara talking to another guard. Lara’s device beeped again. Words flashed on the screen: [Hey, what should we eat?]

Lara replied to her device, “Beep!” [Lara here. Hmm, food… what are you thinking?]

The device beeped back quickly! [Lara, there’s a new store selling spicy carrot skewers! Everyone says they’re amazing!]

Lara’s ears perked up. “Beep? Beep!” [Spicy carrot skewers? Really? Sounds good!]

“Beep!” the device confirmed enthusiastically. [Yes! Let’s go, Lara!]

Just then, a group of black rabbits with abundant fur passed by Ppochhi.

Ba-dump. Ba-dump. Ppochhi’s heart skipped a beat when he saw Lara, a black rabbit with a yellow ribbon in her ear.

“I found her! My ideal type!” he thought.

“Kkyuk! Beautiful Lara! Please go out with me!” Ppochhi shouted.

Ppochhi, a master of swordsmanship, didn’t miss the opportunity and immediately aimed for the opponent’s weakness, but romance wasn’t like fighting. He couldn’t just attack Lara’s weaknesses. He needed to be kind and charming.

Ting!

“Beep!” [No!]

The result was, of course, Lara’s ironclad defense. Lara perfectly defended against Ppochhi’s confession attack, and since then, Ppochhi had been following Lara around, constantly confessing his feelings whenever he had the chance, even coming to Lara’s workplace.

This was already bad enough for Lara. But it got even worse. Ppochhi would hide whenever anyone else came near. So, when Lara complained about an intruder, no one believed her.

Thanks to that, rumors were even circulating that Lara was seeing things these days. He would pop up suddenly, shouting his feelings, then disappear before she could even answer properly. It was no wonder Lara was always annoyed.

However, Ppochhi was heartbroken, not knowing what he had done wrong. “Is romance not in the cards for me this life?” he wondered.

Meanwhile, the Black Moon Corps had a good idea while watching Ppochhi.

“Good. Let’s assign Lara as Yuren’s supervisor for now,” one of them said.

“Huh? Lara?”

“Yes.”

After giving the order, Lara hurried to where Yuren was.

The Black Moon Corps called out to Ppochhi, who was trying to chase after Lara. “Master Pposa.”

Ppochhi cleared his throat, slightly embarrassed, and revealed himself. “Kkyuk···Kkyuk? Ahem···Did you see?”

“Ppyak. Ppyak? Of course, I saw. Can I help you?”

“Kkyuk! Yes!” Ppochhi nodded vigorously at the Black Moon Corps’ question.

“Ppyak! Trust me!” the Black Moon Corps said loudly.

A moment later, Ppochhi, coached by the married Black Moon Corps, appeared with the Black Moon Corps’ order. “Beep?! You’re telling me to supervise Yuren with you?!”

“Kkyuk! Kkyuk! That’s right! Please take care of me!”

Meanwhile, in another world…

Sejun was frying chicken when Theo, Sejun’s talking bird companion, and Iona, a small, magical creature, returned, suddenly darkening his vision.

“Phoo hoo hoo. Chairman Park, I’m back, nya!” Theo announced.

“Kkyut kkyut kkyut. Me too!” Iona added.

“Did you handle it well?” Sejun asked.

“Phoo hoo hoo. Yes, nya! Iona helped with magic, so it was over quickly, nya!”

“Kkyu-” Iona’s ears flattened, and her nose twitched. She made a small, angry sound – ‘Kkyu!’ – showing Theo she was not happy.

She was going to quickly deal with it using magic and have a date, but Theo returned to Sejun without noticing. Iona had every right to be angry.

Sejun winked at Iona and promised another date with Theo next time. “Iona, I’ll give you another chance later.”

“Kkyut kkyut kkyut. I trust you, Sejun!” Iona, who received Sejun’s promise, regained her smile.

And then came the meal. Theo ate grilled fish, Iona ate stir-fried peanuts, and the Black Family ate dried sweet potato.

“Kheu. Chicken and beer are the best,” Sejun said.

“Kkueuhe. Kkueng! Kheu. Chicken and cola are the best!” Kkuengi, a large, bear-like animal, agreed.

Badin, a rabbit who admired Kkuengi, and his subordinates, always copying Kkuengi, also chose chicken and cola. “Kheu. Chicken and cola are the best!”

It was no use even if Sejun said that chicken and beer were more delicious. Kkuengi can’t drink beer because he’s a child…

Anyway, they enjoyed their last night in Avian like that.

The next morning, Sejun entrusted the field to Badin. “Then we’ll be going. Please take good care of the field.”

“Yes! Leave it to me!” Badin replied.

Sejun returned to the White Tower with his party, then returned to the Black Tower. The seeds had already been sown, and it would take time for the flowers to bloom, so he was thinking of dealing with the disasters of other worlds in the meantime.

Yong-bun was brought along for now. Yong-bun was too powerful for the peaceful land of Avian. His strong energy was causing damage. Kkuengi, being a herbalist, had a special talent that might help. He had a magical flower pot that could control strong energies.

Returning to the Black Tower, Sejun reported his return to Aileen. “Aileen, I’m back.”

“Kkueng! Dad, I’m going to send Yong-bun to the herb field!” Kkuengi exclaimed.

“Okay.” Sejun replied.

While waiting for Kkuengi to take Yong-bun to the herb field, Sejun checked if there were any problems with the 10th floor and then visited Yormungandr’s stomach.

He found a huge amount of immature Creator God’s tears pooled in the corner. It looked like almost 1 liter. “Wow. A lot has gathered.”

He looked around for the shadowy figures he sometimes found here – the ‘Destruction Sejuns’ – but they were gone. “Instead, there were no Destruction Sejuns.”

“Here it is.” Sejun immediately turned the tears into elixirs of great growth, and 500 glass bottles filled with red liquid appeared in front of Sejun.

“Oh!”

There are 200 drops of the elixir of great growth in one bottle, so then…

“100,000 drops?!” Sejun was surprised by his own calculation.

The Creator God was also greatly surprised to see the picture made by the bead, which came from the immature Creator God’s tears that Sejun sent. “This is?!”
