The Land of Destruction.
“What do you mean, I can go…?”
The Fallen thought hard about what Sejun said. Then his thoughts stopped.
“Could it be?!”
Is he saying he’s coming here?
Ba-dump! Ba-dump!
The Fallen’s heart raced at the thought of Sejun coming to see him.
Someone is coming to see me…
But wait, is it even okay for him to meet me?
A sudden thought.
Sejun seemed so weak.
He was definitely not strong enough to face him.
I hope Sejun gets stronger.
Even with all his hate and anger, a little space opened in the Fallen’s heart. It was for kindness and worry about Sejun.
He had been alone for so long. Could someone really want to see *him*?
A presence so insignificant, just like Sejun.
But it was something he didn’t want to lose.
Black Tower, 99th floor.
“Oof!”
Sejun woke up full of energy, like always.
“Maintain cleanliness.”
First, he washed his body with a skill.
“Ugh, you’re a bit dirty, but you smell so sweet!”
Sejun brought his nose to Theo and Ggamangi’s heads, bellies, and paws, sniffing them.
Hee hee hee.
Good.
So cozy.
Sejun grinned widely, taking in the sweet scent, and then
“Maintain cleanliness.”
He used a spell to wash his companions.
And then,
“Nya…”
Kking…
He took care of his companions and got up.
“Shall we get started today?”
With a *clang*, Sejun opened the door to his magic storage room. He went inside and opened another door to the Locust Farm.
“Wow.”
So big.
Sejun saw the Locust Farm, which was four times larger than before.
Yesterday, Iona connected Rascal’s magic storage to his. This made the Locust Farm four times bigger!
“The number has increased too.”
Thanks to the increased size of the farm, the number of Locusts, which had not increased due to lack of space, also increased.
Sounds of *press* and *whoosh* filled the room as Sejun and Theo quickly defeated the White Locusts. Because of his special title, Sejun got a lot of experience points.
Sejun gently pushed Theo’s paws to help hunt the White Locusts. He used his One-Hand Farming skill.
Because there were more of them than usual, the hunting time also increased.
When the hunt was over,
“Hehe. Eat a lot and increase again.”
Sejun threw the pruned branches and the stems of the harvested crops as food and closed the door.
Sejun then visited the other Calamity Farms in order, hunted, and fed them.
The other Calamity Farms also increased in size, and the number of Calamities to hunt also increased, so the hunting time took longer than usual, and when Sejun came out of the subspace warehouse,
Thud. Thud.
A heavy footstep was heard in the distance.
Pink Fur appeared, carrying Kkuengi.
“It’s already time for breakfast. Just a moment.”
Kkuhehehe.
Sejun carried Kkuengi, who was hugging him, in his side and went to the cafeteria.
“Cook.”
He duplicated the Choco Pies made by Sejun No. 12 and filled Pink Fur’s snack pouch.
“Here.”
Kuoong.
[Thank you, Sejun.]
Kuhohoho.
Thud thud. Thud thud.
Pink Fur smiled happily and went to train with joyful steps.
And then,
“Okay, let’s eat.”
Sejun woke up his companions, who were still half-asleep, and fed them breakfast.
When breakfast was over,
Kkuengi!
[Daddy, coffee!]
“Okay. Thank you.”
Slurp.
“Kuhh. Good.”
Ah, that’s good. This is the perfect taste!
Sejun sat on the chair, drinking the iced Americano that Kkuengi made, and smiled happily.
And then,
“Puhuhut.”
Kkuhehehe.
Kkihihit.
Theo, Kkuengi, and Ggamangi took their places next to Sejun and enjoyed the drowsiness after the meal.
“Kkyut kkyut kkyut.”
Of course, Iona also wrapped Theo’s tail around her body and had a good time.
Sejun relaxed and enjoyed the peace for about 30 minutes.
He took his companions to the 10th Tower to do farm work.
“Herr, are you working hard? If you don’t pay the rent, you’ll be kicked out again!”
“Puhuhut. That’s right, meow! If you don’t pay the rent, you’ll be impeached again, meow!”
The great Chairman Park!
[Herr, the god who lost his divinity, says he is working hard to make elixirs, so please don’t banish him.]
“Ahem. Last time, I only gave you a warning, but if you don’t pay the rent, I’ll really banish you.”
Sejun bluffed at Herr’s words, even though he couldn’t do it.
“Puhuhut. That’s right, meow! You’ll be impeached and banished, meow!”
Thanks to him, Theo also excitedly threatened Herr.
Herr was having a hard time in many ways.
Sejun and his companions, who finished their work at the 10th Tower, arrived at the Black Demonic Castle. Sejun knew the Fallen wouldn’t send the Ogre and Turtle. But the Fallen couldn’t admit he was wrong.
Sejun confirmed that the Ogre and the Planet-Destroying Turtle were not there.
“Hehe. I’ll have to tease him when I see him later.”
Sejun smiled like a villain, thinking about the Fallen, who would strongly say that he didn’t send the Ogre and the Planet-Destroying Turtle because of his words.
The more he does that, the more fun it is to tease him.
Sejun did farm work in the Black Demonic Castle and returned to the Black Tower.
“Shall we go then?”
Sejun put magic into the portal scroll. *Rumble*. The ground shook, and a tall door made of white stone appeared.
“Puhuhut. The great Hybrid Chairman Park, Vice Chairman Theo will go first to check if Chairman Park is safe, meow!”
Kkuengi!
[Kkuengi will also go in first to check if Daddy is safe!]
Kkihihit. Kking! Kking!
[Heehee. Butler! The great Ggamangi-nim too! The great Ggamangi-nim will go and check if you did it right!]
Theo, Kkuengi, and Ggamangi ran into the space with the surging blue energy.
Sejun checked his protective gear: his rings, necklaces, bracelets, shield, and sword. He made sure he had his special hat and boots, and even a sturdy pot, just in case.
When Sejun was packing his equipment,
“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, it’s okay, meow! There’s no Creation God, meow!”
Kkuhehehe. Kkuengi!
[Hehehe. It’s safe!]
Kkihihit. Kking!
[Heehee. Butler! It’s safe! But you’re a sunfish, so I don’t know!]
The three, who had first looked around the Creation God’s temple, returned to Sejun and reported.
And then,
“What do you mean, sunfish?!”
You cheeky little sunfish!
Sejun couldn’t stand being called a sunfish by Ggamangi, who was weaker than him.
No.
He didn’t stand it.
Because he was easy to deal with.
Squeeze.
So he grabbed Ggamangi’s cheeks and punished him with a glutinous rice cake shape.
Kking!
[Butler, let’s talk it out!]
Ggamangi requested a conversation, but
“Hehe. It’s too late.”
Sejun had no intention of letting go.
It was soft and felt good.
As he was holding Ggamangi’s cheeks,
Kkuhehehe.
Kkuengi also wants to play with Daddy.
Kkuengi, who was sticking his face out, seemed to think that Ggamangi, who was being punished by Sejun, was just playing with Sejun.
‘Kkuengi, this is a punishment.’
“Kkuhehehe.”
Kkueng-i tilted his head, looking up at Sejun with wide, innocent eyes.
“Kkueng-ah, if you keep looking at me like that…” Sejun chuckled.
‘I’d be more than happy,’ Kkueng-i seemed to say with his gaze.
Squeeze!
Sejun let go of Kkamangi’s cheek and reached for Kkueng-i’s instead. Kkueng-i’s cheeks were wonderfully plump.
As Sejun gently squished Kkueng-i’s soft cheeks, a happy sound escaped his lips.
“Hehehe.”
Real laughter bubbled up, warm and genuine.
Sejun often grabbed Theo and Kkamangi’s cheeks when they misbehaved. But Kkueng-i was always good. He never caused trouble, so Sejun had never stretched his cheeks before.
Kkueng-i had the most cheek fat and stretched the best, making it the most satisfying.
“Hehehe.”
As Sejun squished Kkueng-i’s cheeks with both hands, laughing like a fool,
“Nya…”
Whine…
The eldest brother, Theo, and the youngest, Kkamangi, were sulking.
They puffed up their cheeks and stared at Sejun, pressuring him.
‘Chairman Park, touch my cheeks too, nya!’
‘Butler!’
‘Touch the great Kkamangi-nim’s cheeks!’
Why are they competing like this?
“Hehe. Get in line.”
Thanks to them, Sejun was having a great time.
Sejun evenly touched all three of their cheeks, then said,
Sejun chuckled, wiping away a happy tear. “Okay, okay,” he said, clapping his hands. “Time to get serious. Alright, guys, pack your gear.”
He told the others to pack their gear as well.
“Puhuhut. I already packed my bags, nya!”
Theo proudly showed Sejun his merchant’s pack, which contained nine towers of items, befitting his status as a merchant.
“Kkyut kkyut kkyut. I packed my staff too!”
Iona packed the Gravity Staff of Suppression, and
Kkueng!
Kkueng-i packed the Lightning Rod.
Kee hee hee.
Kkamangi packed a snack pouch full of super delicious dried sweet potatoes.
“Okay. Then let’s go now.”
Sejun and his party slipped into the portal.
A little later.
Bbyot, Yuren, Poyo, and the Four Masters found out about the trip later from the company chat and arrived.
Bbyot? Bbyot! Bbyot!
[Where did Sejun-nim and the others go?
Ah.
This must be the portal to the Creation God’s temple!
Let’s wait here!]
“Uhehehe. Okay. I’ll see if there’s any food left over from yesterday’s party.”
Yuren headed to the kitchen at Bbyot’s words.
“Mohehehe.”
Lick. Lick. Lick.
Beside Yuren, Poyo was closely marking Yuren, licking away his misfortune.
And
Kyaung! Kyaung!
[Alright! Let’s make a plan!]
Baektang gathered the other Four Masters—Cheongnyong, Heukbuk, and Jeokbi—and spoke in a serious voice.
However,
Nyongnyong?
Bbokbbok?
Jjaekjjaek?
The three of them wore expressions that said, ‘What plan?’
Kyaung!
[Sejun-nim, Operation Reclaim the Lap!]
Baektang said in a confident voice, but
‘Yeah. You do it alone.’
The three quickly moved away from Baektang and took their places beside Bbyot.
They were sure that if they stayed near Baektang, they would be framed by Theo.
So, they decided to stick close to Bbyot, who was Theo’s right forepaw.
Thus, Baektang was abandoned by his companions.
Kyaung!
[I can do it alone!]
I’ll drive out Theo hyung and take Sejun-nim’s lap!
First, Theo hyung has to cause an accident, so…
He thought of an idea to get Theo banned from the lap.
However, ideas didn’t come easily, and
I’m sleepy… should I sleep for a bit?
Kyaurong. Kyaurong.
He quickly fell asleep.
Sejun-nim, it’s my lap!
In his dream, Baektang was finally there, curled up happily on Sejun’s warm lap, chasing away all rivals. He snored contentedly, dreaming of victory.
[You have entered the portal connected to the Creation God’s temple.]
A message appeared before Sejun.
Stepping through the portal, Sejun found himself inside a temple bathed in warm, golden light. It felt peaceful and welcoming, a stark contrast to the cold blue energy of the portal. The air hummed with a gentle energy.
“So, this is the Creation God’s temple.”
Sejun, who finally arrived at the Creation God’s temple without fainting, looked around and said,
“Park Sejun, welcome. I am Emila Ivenus, the Creation God’s first apostle.”
“Nice to meet you. I am Amur Langie, the Creation God’s second apostle.”
Emila and Amur welcomed Sejun.
“Yes. Hello. Emila-nim, thank you for the shoes.”
Sejun expressed his gratitude for the [Golden Boots of the Excellent Farmer] he received from Emila.
And
“Amur-nim, thank you for the portrait… too.”
He also expressed his gratitude to Amur.
He wanted to complain about the portrait that didn’t have his face drawn on it, but he held back because the others had already scolded him.
Theo, Kkueng-i, and Kkamangi had each said something once, and he thought it wasn’t right for him to step up and say it again.
The fire-attribute filial daughter, Fire Flower, also nagged Amur about the portrait, but Sejun didn’t know about that.
Anyway, it was fortunate for Amur.
The moment Sejun brought it up, Theo, Fire Flower, Kkueng-i, and Kkamangi would start nagging again in that order.
“Then, shall we depart for the Land of Destruction right away?”
Sejun asked.
Then,
“Follow me. There are a few things you need to know before we go.”
“Okay, listen up. First thing you need to know – there’s a weight limit for what you can take. Ten kilograms, max.”
The two began to explain as they headed to the waypoint.
They would go together, but there was information they needed to know in advance.
The weight limit for items that could be taken through the waypoint was 10kg, subspace could not be used, and the seeds they brought would not germinate.
‘It’s similar to when entering the tower.’
He didn’t know about the subspace warehouse because it didn’t exist originally, but the 1kg weight limit and the condition that the seeds they brought would not germinate were the same as when entering the tower.
After hearing the explanation, Sejun
Put down [The Dignified Dragon Scale Shield], [The Blade of Earth], and [The Magic Sword Stormbringer] among the items he had to meet the weight.
Farming tools or food…
He pondered for a while between [The Trident of Fire, Wind, and Water] and [Eomdol’s Sturdy Stone Pot], but since he might not eat,
He put down the stone pot and matched the weight to 10kg.
“Ah. And it’s dangerous because of the energy of destruction when you cross over, so keep that in mind.”
“Because of that, we can only last for 1 hour before we have to come out.”
Emila and Amur told Sejun what he needed to know last.
“Put your hand here.”
“Yes.”
Tap.
As Sejun placed his hand on the white crystal, the others followed Sejun and raised their hands.
Since the use of the subspace warehouse was impossible, everyone had to register the waypoint separately.
Baetbaet also got up and placed his wing on the crystal.
[[Creation God’s Temple> Waypoint has been saved.]
[[Land of Destruction> Waypoint has been saved.]
Thus, Sejun and his party registered two waypoints at the same time, and
“Then let’s move.”
“We’ll go ahead and take care of the monsters, so come a little later.”
Emila and Amur left first.
After about 5 minutes passed,
[Waypoint List]
[Land of Destruction>
Black Tower 99th floor
White Tower 99th floor
Red Tower 99th floor ···
..
…
“Let’s go too.”
Press.
Sejun selected the Land of Destruction from the waypoint list, and
[[Moving to the Land of Destruction>.]
Soon disappeared.
“Nya!”
“Kkyut!”
Kkueng!
(Baetbaet!)
Whine!
···
..
…
Land of Destruction.
The waypoint deposited them in a desolate landscape. Cracked earth stretched as far as the eye could see, under a sky the color of bruised plums. A strange, unsettling energy hung in the air.
“It’s Sejun!”
He really came!
The Fallen were excited by Sejun’s presence.
However,
Huh?!
The distance is too close!
Sejun is going to die at this rate!
Realizing that the distance to Sejun was too close, the Fallen, who should have been running away, stood still, and the Fallen hurriedly began to run away to the farthest place from Sejun.
The Fallen were in chaos, scrambling away from Sejun as fast as they could. His arrival had turned their world upside down, all for the sake of a sunfish.
