Farming in the Tower Alone [EN]: Chapter 655

“Is this the last fire moth?”

Fwoosh.

Sejun watched the Black Flame Fire Moth finish evolving. He sounded a little sad.

This fire moth was the last danger in Noil. Sejun had been waiting for it to evolve so he could eat delicious squid.

I wish there were more…

Sejun took off the glove on his left hand and held it out to the Black Flame Fire Moth.

Then,

Fwoosh.

The Black Flame Fire Moth tried to cover Sejun’s left hand with black flames.

But as soon as the flames touched Sejun’s hand…

The black flames disappeared, as if they had never been there. This was because of the Blessing of Destruction.

Sejun was making lunch when he suddenly had an idea. ‘Can I destroy fire with my Blessing of Destruction?’ he wondered.

So, he took off his glove and put his hand in the fire. The fire vanished without a trace, as if it had never existed.

What about other magic?

Sejun was curious. With Iona’s help, he tested the Blessing of Destruction on ice, wind, and lightning. Every time the magic touched Sejun’s hand, it disappeared.

And then,

“Kkyut kkyut kkyut. Master Sejun, can we try a meteor next?”

“No, no, let’s stop now.”

Sejun quickly stopped the experiment when Iona suggested summoning a meteor.

“Kkyung… Yes.”

Sejun felt sorry seeing Iona’s disappointed face, but he didn’t want to keep going. He had a feeling she would want to use black hole magic after meteor magic.

With that, Sejun put out the black flames with his left hand. He walked up to the Black Flame Fire Moth, holding his sword in his right hand covered with Aura.

Snikt.

The Black Flame Fire Moth was easily defeated. Without the black flames, it was even weaker than ordinary fire moths.

[You have easily defeated the third calamity of destruction, the Black Flame Fire Moth, thanks to the Blessing of Destruction.]

[You have gained 100 billion experience points.]

The message told him he had easily defeated it because of the Blessing of Destruction, but…

“Hehehe.”

I think I’m a bit strong.

Sejun couldn’t help but feel proud.

At that moment,

“Nya?”

Theo, who was holding onto Sejun’s knee, tilted his head. He looked at Sejun’s proud face and felt something was strange.

“President Park is making a funny face again, nya!”

“President Park, stop it, nya!”

“Eup!”

He quickly tried to stop Sejun.

A short while later,

“Alright, everyone, time to go back home.”

Sejun and his friends returned to the Black Tower.

Black Tower, 99th floor.

When is Brother-in-law coming?

Ace was waiting in front of Sejun’s house.

At that moment,

Beep. Beep.

The alarm magic on the waypoint started ringing.

It’s Brother-in-law!

Ace quickly flew to the waypoint, and…

“Oh?! Nephew, how did you know I was coming?”

Sejun saw Ace flying towards him.

“Brother-in-law, I missed you!”

“Hehehe. I missed you too.”

Sejun and Ace were happily chatting when…

Clang.

“President Park, I missed you, nya!”

Kkweang!

Kking!

The subspace warehouse opened, and the party members rushed out. Sejun carried them all to his house.

On the way,

“Eileen, I’m back.”

Sejun told Eileen he was back.

[The Tower’s Administrator says you have worked hard.]

[The Tower’s Administrator asks if you are hurt anywhere.]

“Of course not. Eileen, look at this. I can do this now.”

Sejun took off his glove to show Eileen the Blessing of Destruction. He took out a small dagger and grabbed it with his bare hand, and…

Crackle.

The dagger turned to dust.

He should have shown it to her the first day he got the Blessing of Destruction, but he was too scared to use it back then.

“How is it?”

I’m strong for 5 days.

Sejun showed Eileen his strength, acting cool as if it was nothing. Then…

Amazing.

Ace’s eyes sparkled as he looked at Sejun’s fingers.

Grasp.

He grabbed Sejun’s finger.

“Huh?!”

Sejun was talking to Eileen and didn’t see Ace. He realized what was happening after Ace grabbed his finger, and…

Crackle.

Sejun looked at Ace. Ace’s dragon sculpture was breaking. Only the arm broke.

“Waaah! I don’t have an arm!!!”

Ace started crying.

“Nephew, be good. I’ll make you dragon chicken. Stop crying.”

Sejun tried to make Ace feel better by offering him dragon chicken.

“Poohing… Really?”

Ace immediately stopped crying.

“Yeah. So stop it.”

“Yes. Stop…”

Ace tried to stop crying because of Sejun’s words.

But…

“Poohing…”

He kept crying. Ace was upset because he couldn’t stop himself, and…

“Waaah! Stop… I can’t~!”

I can’t eat dragon chicken anymore!

He started crying again because he was sad about not being able to eat dragon chicken.

His tears were like a never-ending river.

“Hoo.”

I can’t help it.

“Nephew, should I call your sister?”

“No!”

Ace stopped crying as if it were a lie when Sejun said he would call the scariest sister in the world.

And…

“Brother-in-law, you’re not going to call my sister, are you?”

Ace asked in a worried voice.

“Yeah. I won’t call her. Now let’s go eat dragon chicken.”

“Puhahaha. Yes!”

Sejun took Ace, who had stopped crying, to the kitchen and thought.

Is Eileen that scary? Is it because my nephew is still young?

Eileen was only kind to Sejun, but Sejun hadn’t realized that yet.

Sejun arrived at the kitchen.

“Sejun No. 12, can you make dragon chicken quickly?”

He asked Sejun No. 12 to cook. He carefully made squid dishes, grilled fish, and roasted peanuts.

Iona also started to really like what Sejun grilled, following Theo.

A short while later,

“Eileen, only you can eat this. Got it?”

Sejun sent Eileen a lot of dishes made with the Black Flame Fire Moth, like squid tempura, stir-fried squid, and boiled squid.

“Uhehe… Huh?!”

Yuren smiled, thinking the squid dish was for him. But then it all disappeared! Yuren looked unhappy.

Sejun saw this and said, “Why are you upset? Are you sad because you don’t have a girlfriend?” Sejun said this like he was joking.

But then Sejun brought out another dish, made by ‘Sejun Number 12’. It was so good that Yuren quickly forgot about being unhappy.

After dinner, Sejun said, “Gguengi, sleep well.”

“Guhehehe. Ggueng!” Gguengi replied.

“[Hehehe. Daddy sleeps well too!]” said Gguengi in his mind.

*Kiss.* Sejun kissed Gguengi. Then he carried Gguengi to his soft, pink fur bed and tucked him in.

“You all sleep well too,” Sejun said to the others.

“Bbyot! Bbyot!” Bbyot chirped.

“[Yes! I’ll come in the morning!]” Bbyot thought.

“Uhehehe. I’ll come for breakfast tomorrow,” Yuren said.

“Mohehe. Good night,” Poyo mumbled.

Bbyot, Yuren, and Poyo went to sleep on different floors. It was better this way. If Yuren slept on the same floor, everyone might wake up in the middle of the night because Yuren was clumsy and always caused trouble!

When everyone else was asleep, Sejun thought, “Finally, time to sleep too.” He lay down in his bed and closed his eyes. But then…

“Kkihihit. Kking!”

“[Hehe. Butler! Let’s go apologize!]” Ggangming barked. The little dog, still a bit chubby and heavy, jumped onto Sejun’s chest. Ggangming could feel the strange energy in the world, and he knew they needed to do something about it.

“Alright, let’s go,” Sejun agreed. He patted Ggangming gently. Then, everything went dark.

*Kuh-ooh-uh… Goro-rong… Ggyu-ro-rong… Kki-ro-rong…*

Soon, the only sound in the bedroom was snoring. Sejun and Ggangming were asleep, but they were also going on an adventure in a different world – Ggangming’s mental world.

Meanwhile, Batbat woke up quietly. “(Bat bat. Good night, everyone!)” he whispered. He opened a magic door that led to a place far away, called Uen. Batbat wanted to check on his Storm Bat Squad. He was still teaching them his special skills. Sejun, their boss, had noticed these bats and wanted them to become very strong.

They were now in Ggangming’s mental world. It looked strange and dreamlike. Sejun, Theo, and Iona were there. Theo had a tiny creature sitting on his head. Iona was with Nightmare, who Sejun already knew.

Sejun looked at the small creature on Theo’s head and asked, “Oh! Who is this little guy? He’s so cute!”

“Puhuhut. This is Mini Chairman Park Number 3!” Theo said proudly. He carefully put the little creature on his paw. “Isn’t he amazing?”

*I know it’s me!* thought Mini Chairman Park Number 3. *Why is Theo calling me ‘rotten face’? And ‘handsome’? He’s making fun of me!*

Sejun was a little surprised by Theo’s words, but Mini Chairman Park Number 3 was even more annoyed. He punched Theo’s paw!

But… *Thud! Whack!* Mini Chairman Park Number 3’s tiny fist bounced right off Theo’s soft, pink, jelly-like paw! Instead, he accidentally punched himself in the eye!

He looked at Sejun with big, sad eyes, as if to say, “It’s all your fault!”

Sejun looked back, thinking, *Hey! Why are you blaming me? It was your own punch!*

Once Sejun and Mini Chairman Park Number 3 had said hello, Ggangming and his family started to apologize.

“We are really sorry,” Ggangming said.

“Yes, sorry!” said his family.

“Puhuhut! Here, try this grilled fish!” Theo offered. “Our amazing Chairman Park grilled it himself!”

“Ggyut ggyut ggyut! And Sejun roasted these peanuts too!” Iona added.

Theo and Iona smiled and shared baskets of food with everyone.

Mini Chairman Park Number 3 was now fast asleep, still hanging on Theo’s head.

Nightmare, who didn’t really want to be there, spoke to Sejun. “I’m the King of Nightmares,” he said. “This… this isn’t really something a King of Nightmares should be doing.” He felt like apologizing and giving food was not right for him.

“Then just become the King of Good Dreams!” Sejun said simply.

“Huh? No, wait,” Nightmare said. “You can’t just change a title like that…”

“Yes, I can,” Sejun said. “From now on, you are Gilsun, the King of Good Dreams.”

“Gilsun?” Nightmare repeated, surprised. Sejun had even given him a new name!

Because Sejun had decided it, something magical happened!

*[Magic Message: You want to change Nightmare’s name and title.]*

*[But you can only change one letter in the title right now.]*

*[Okay, title changed to ‘King of Good Dreams’.]*

*[Cannot change the name completely, so combining names.]*

*[New name: Gilsun Nightmare, King of Good Dreams.]*

*[Second name has no special power yet.]*

The magic system changed Nightmare’s title and name!

Gilsun Nightmare, the King of Good Dreams? Nightmare thought about his new name.

“Oh! It sounds good, right?” Sejun said, pleased with himself. *Hehehe, I’m so clever!*

But Nightmare just thought, *Gilsun Nightmare…* He felt terrible about his new name.

“Now go, Gilsun Nightmare!” Sejun said cheerfully. “Go and give everyone good dreams!”

Sejun didn’t let Nightmare stay sad for long. “Here, eat this,” Sejun said, offering him some food. “It will help you give good dreams.”

Nightmare sighed, but he took the food. Maybe being the King of Good Dreams wouldn’t be so bad after all.

Suddenly, Ggangming called out, “Butler! Look over there!”

*Glug glug…* A dark, shadowy thing appeared. It was Corruption!

Corruption hissed, “You… you think you can stop me?”

Sejun’s eyes focused. Golden light swirled in his eyes. *Whoosh!* Corruption burst into flames and disappeared.

“-You… soon… face me directly…” Corruption whispered before vanishing completely. Its words sounded scary.

“What did it mean?” Sejun wondered, feeling a cold shiver.

But then he looked around at Ggangming, Theo, and Iona. *Hehe, I’m not scared when I’m with my friends,* he thought, smiling. He felt brave again, just by being with them.

A little while later, morning was coming.

“Gilsun Nightmare, you did a great job,” Sejun said, praising him.

“Just call me Nightmare!” Nightmare shouted back. He quickly ran away, disappearing into Iona’s mind.

He was starting to get used to being the King of Good Dreams, but he still hated the name ‘Gilsun Nightmare’!

Then, they all woke up back in the real world.

“Uaaaah,” Sejun yawned.

“Nyaaaang,” Theo stretched.

“Ggyuuut,” Iona mumbled.

*Squeak,* Ggangming made a little noise.

They all stretched and yawned, ready to start a new day on the farm. The sun was rising, and everything looked peaceful.
