Farming in the Tower Alone [EN]: Chapter 714

“Oh. You’ve grown again?”

At Sejun’s words, Mini Chairman Park No. 4 puffed out his chest and looked very proud.

“No, ‘Mini’ was a better name now. He was as long as Sejun’s arm, much bigger than ‘Super Mini’ had been.”

Happy to be praised by Sejun, Mini Chairman Park No. 4 happily pushed his head towards Sejun.

“Good boy.”

Pat. Pat.

Sejun patted Mini Chairman Park No. 4’s head.

Mini Chairman Park No. 4, who had the same gentle eyes as him.

Sejun felt a little like he was raising a child.

No.

He was already raising a child.

“Hehehe.”

Sejun chuckled, thinking about Kkuenge. Kkuenge had been so happy after defeating Yuren, raising his little hands in the air before falling asleep.

Kkuenge’s lip shape when he smiles looks exactly like mine.

Plus, he likes my mom’s kimchi stew…

Realizing how much he and Kkuenge were alike, Sejun patted Mini Chairman Park No. 4’s head and said,

“Please, everyone, accept this food. We are really sorry for what our kids did.”

“Ooh, fish and Churu! *Nya!* Maybe… maybe we can forgive you… *this time*!”

“Kkyuk kkyuk kkyuk. These peanuts are delicious! Please forgive young Blackie, the cat!”

“I’m really sorry.”

“We are sorry.”

Sejun and his companions apologized to the spirits.

A little later, a low rumble echoed through the air. *Grumble.* Corruption was here, just like always.

“Oh. You’re here? Hello!”

-Hmph.

Corruption greeted Sejun curtly, but a tiny smile twitched at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes, though he tried to hide it, sparkled with a hint of happiness.

After greeting Corruption, Sejun grinned, his eyes twinkling mischievously. “But you didn’t send the ogre and the planet-destroying turtle today? Hehe. Did I finally get to you, Corruption?”

-What… what are you talking about?! It’s not like I didn’t send them because you told me not to! I just! Didn’t want to send them!

At Sejun’s words, Corruption immediately flared up and shouted.

“Okay, okay. Why are you getting angry if it’s not true?”

-No. I’m not angry, but…

Corruption quickly lowered his voice at Sejun’s words.

He didn’t want to be hated by Sejun.

“But I went to the Land of Destruction today. Did you happen to see me?”

When Sejun mentioned that he had gone to the Land of Destruction today,

-Ahem. I didn’t see you.

Corruption answered, avoiding Sejun’s gaze.

“Really? But where are you, Corruption?”

-What?! Why do you need to know that?!

Corruption asked, his face hardening at Sejun’s question.

Corruption’s face went pale. If Sejun found him in his current location… it wouldn’t be good. *Very* not good. In fact, it would probably be the end of him.

“Don’t be like that and tell me. I’ll come find you later.”

As Sejun, who was powerful but also easily hurt, kept asking for his location,

-No! Absolutely not! Let’s part ways here today! You’ll die if you come!

Corruption hastily declared their separation.

He felt that if Sejun kept pressing, he would eventually answer.

“Alright.”

How stingy.

I will definitely find you.

Corruption’s dark energy crackled around him, making the air heavy and twisting the shadows. Sejun used his powerful sword, Seobeom, along with Theo’s magic, to defeat Corruption.

As Corruption vanished, a series of messages popped up in Sejun’s mind. *Quest Completed! Stats increased! Stay cost reduced!* Another small step towards freedom, he thought.

Sejun greeted the morning while receiving quest rewards.

The stay cost reduced so far is 78.30201%.

It felt like it would soon be 100%, but reducing the remaining 22% was too difficult.

“Should I ask Corruption to remove it?”

If he asked Corruption to remove the remnants of Corruption in the , he could easily finish the quest and quickly reduce the stay cost.

But no.

He shouldn’t focus on the rewards first. That wasn’t the point.

This wasn’t just about the rewards. This was about making the Blackie family truly sorry for what they had done. If he just focused on the quest, he’d forget why he was doing this in the first place – for justice, for their apology.

Slap!

Park Sejun, focus!

Sejun slapped his cheeks hard with both palms and

“Nya…”

Squeak…

He gathered his companions and got up.

And clank.

He opened his special storage space and started the morning by hunting disasters again.

3 hours later.

Sejun finished his work at the 10th Tower and arrived at Black Demonic Great Castle.

“Alright, Pioneers, come here!”

Kya kya!

He summoned the Destruction Pioneers.

“Okay. Spit out the seeds.”

As Sejun held out his palm, the Destruction Pioneers spat out two seeds onto Sejun’s hand.

It took a lot of work to get these seeds. For every million Destruction Devourer seeds they planted, the Pioneers could only make two of these special seeds. So, there weren’t many of them.

“Good job, everyone.”

Sejun patted the heads of the Destruction Pioneers who had spat out the seeds, praised them, and collected about 1,000 seeds to plant in the ground.

Sejun’s plan was to plant these Destruction Pioneer seeds everywhere. If they grew, they would help spread the Destruction Devourer seeds all over the Land of Destruction, even when he wasn’t there. This would help clean up the Land of Destruction much faster.

He chuckled to himself. ‘Saving the world, one seed at a time. That’s my job!’

“Hehehe.”

Sejun wore a proud expression, thinking about himself saving the world.

“Nya!”

Theo, as if sensing Sejun’s growing pride, swiftly put his soft paw right on Sejun’s nose.

“Mmph, get your paw off,” Sejun mumbled, his voice muffled by fur.

Hehe! Squeak! Squeak!

Blackie, not understanding the situation, jumped onto Sejun’s face with all four paws, adding to the chaos.

Blackie was in a very good mood after waking up.

However,

Squeak…

[House Cat, let’s talk this over…]

As a price for being in a very good mood, Sejun grabbed his cheek and dangled him around.

After planting the seeds, Sejun, still slightly ruffled but smiling, headed back to the Black Tower with his companions. The day was just beginning. *Boom.*

Sejun held the ancient portal scroll. With a flick of his wrist, he opened a swirling portal of light. It shimmered like heat rising from hot sand, a gateway to the Temple of the Creator God. He stepped through, leaving the quiet room behind and entering the sacred space. The Temple was cool and quiet, the air smelling faintly of incense, a place of ancient power.

“Let’s go,” he said, looking at Emila and Amur, who had returned six hours earlier and were resting.

“…You’re going again?”

“Going again?!” The two were very surprised by Sejun’s words.

Emila and Amur fought hard in the Land of Destruction. It was almost to death each time, and they felt very tired afterwards.

So, they usually rested for at least a week after visiting the Land of Destruction, but Sejun was different.

Sejun liked to work a little bit each day, not too much at once.

“Alright.”

“Understood…”

As servants of the Creator God, Emila and Amur couldn’t leave Sejun to help with the Creator God’s work alone. They hurriedly gathered their equipment again and moved to the Land of Destruction with Sejun’s group.

“Then we’ll go and look around.”

“Go ahead.”

As soon as they arrived at the waypoint, their safe starting point in this dangerous land, Emila and Amur scouted the surroundings for anything dangerous.

“Seed Creation.”

Sejun created and planted 100 seeds of the Devouring of Destruction.

Meanwhile, Kkamangi was fighting fiercely, biting and hitting the 100 Devourers of Destruction that had been planted yesterday.

A short while later, Kkamangi was recognized as the leader by the Devourers of Destruction.

Kking?! Kking! [Where did you guys spit the seeds?! Guide me, the great leader Kkamangi!]

Kkamangi was doing his part for once.

He should ask the butler to trade one seed for one super-delicious roasted sweet potato jerky. He had it all planned out.

“Hehehe. Kkamangi, are you in a position to negotiate with me right now?”

Sejun grabbed his cheek.

Kking! [Master! I was wrong!]

Sejun squeezed Kkamangi’s cheek enough and then said, “Instead, if you manage the Devourers of Destruction so they don’t spit seeds elsewhere, I’ll give you one super-delicious roasted sweet potato jerky.”

He made another offer.

Keeheeheet. Kking! Kking! [Heehee. Okay! Master! The great Kkamangi will work hard!]

Kkamangi readily accepted.

Kking! [Everyone, spit the seeds here from now on!]

Ptooey, ptooey. Ptooey, ptooey.

Thus, the Devourers of Destruction, having received Kkamangi’s instructions, began spitting seeds next to the waypoint.

“Where did you guys spit them?”

Sejun followed the Devourers of Destruction who had already spat out their seeds and collected and planted them.

The Devourers of Destruction usually spit out 3-5 seeds, so he was able to plant about 400 more Devourers of Destruction.

As a result, the 600 Devourers of Destruction absorbed the energy of destruction, greatly reducing the energy of destruction that had been spreading around the waypoint. Kkamangi’s survival time increased to 1 hour, while Sejun’s increased to 8 hours.

“Wh-what is this?!”

“A week?!” Emila and Amur, who had returned from patrolling the area, were shocked by the greatly increased time they could survive.

When are we getting off work?! In a bad way.

1 hour later, Sejun, who had searched the area for an hour and found signs of the spreading corruption, a dark energy that attracted dangerous creatures, packed up his group to return to the Black Tower, right on time for Kkamangi’s quitting time.

He couldn’t call out to the corruption loudly because the surrounding snakes would swarm in.

As Sejun and his group left, Emila and Amur, realizing that they shouldn’t overdo it to keep up with Sejun’s pace, cleaned up the surrounding snakes once more and left work earlier than usual.

The next morning, Sejun said, “Then we’ll leave work now.”

Now the number of Devourers of Destruction had increased to 2500, increasing Kkamangi’s survival time to 5 hours, but Sejun was leaving after only 1 hour.

There wasn’t much to do besides planting the seeds of the Devourers of Destruction, so staying longer than 1 hour was a waste of time.

He wanted to go far away to find corruption, but from 5km away from the waypoint, it was another world. The energy of destruction was so strong that even Baetbaet struggled, so Sejun couldn’t even think about approaching it.

Another day passed, and Sejun, who had arrived in the Land of Destruction, opened his mouth with a confident expression. “Hehehe. Seed Creation.”

[Please select the seed to create.]

[Devourer of Destruction Seed]

[Devourer of Pioneer Seed]

The Devourer of Pioneer Seed had been added to the seed list.

Today, he harvested the Devourer of Pioneer Seed from the Black Tower’s Destruction Field, finally achieving 100 million harvests.

“Create 95 Devourer of Destruction Seeds and 5 Devourer of Pioneer Seeds.”

Since the Devourer of Pioneer can plant about 7000 seeds a day, Sejun only created 5 Devourer of Pioneer Seeds.

A short while later, the Devourers of Pioneer, who had collected the seeds spat out by the Devourers of Destruction, began planting the Devourer of Destruction seeds in the ground to germinate them.

I don’t have to come here every day for a while now. Sejun was pleased as he watched the Destruction Farm running automatically.

There are only 4 weeks left, so I should prepare from now on to have a perfect party.

“Hehehe. She’ll definitely like it, right?” Sejun smiled, imagining Eileen smiling brightly in 4 weeks.

“Hehe. From now on, I’m starting the Eileen’s birthday secret operation.”

He gathered his group and entered an operational meeting for Eileen’s birthday party, which was on May 5th.

“Puhuhoot. Great Hybrid Park Chairman, then shouldn’t we tell Eileen that we are preparing a birthday party for her, nyaang?”

“Of course not. It’s a secret.”

“Puhuhoot. I understand, nyaang!”

[Then shouldn’t we tell her that we are preparing a birthday present too, yo?]

“Yeah. You can’t.”

Keeheeheet. Kking! [Heehee. Master! The great Kkamangi will tell Eileen that we are preparing a birthday party!]

“Hey! What did you hear?! You can’t tell her!” It seemed like he needed to take care of security first.
