Solo Farming In The Tower

Chapter 529: You damned System, someday our Vice Chairman Theo will impeach you

TL: Hanguk

Outskirts of Destruction.

“Jǫrmungandr-nim, I have returned.”

Kraken, who had destroyed Kanos, returned leading the remaining forces.

“Good. You’ve done well.”

Jǫrmungandr, who had been watching over Hydra and Leviathan as they began their molting, turned to Kraken and spoke.

“Then I will prepare for the next attack right away.”

104.28.193.250

“Alright.”

Kraken sought out a world to attack with the remaining forces.

“This place looks suitable.”

Kraken chose Nenma, a world guarded by the White Tower.

Crack.

Opening a rift toward Nenma,

“Calamities! Go forth!”

He sent all remaining calamity troops to Nenma.

At that moment,

Crunch.

A hand emerged from a narrow gap in the Black Moon and began to forcibly pry it open.

And then

Snap. Snap.

Thump. Thump.

From the First Calamity, Locust, to the Sixth Calamity, Ogre, an enormous number of forces started pouring out of the Black Moon.

Destruction, enraged by Melpheus’s defeat, dispatched even more forces.

However, the six calamities weren’t the end.

Rumble.

Following them, five massive turtles, each about half the size of Earth, barely squeezed through the gap that Destruction had created.

These were the most powerful Seventh Calamity- the Planet-Destroying Turtles.

“Do not disappoint me again.”

With those last words, which sounded like a final warning, Destruction shut the Black Moon.

······

Jǫrmungandr and Kraken trembled quietly. Hydra and Leviathan, who were in the middle of molting, did too.

“Calamities! Go! Go forth and destroy the worlds!”

Feeling pressured by Destruction’s words, Kraken sent some of the calamities that emerged from the Black Gate to Nenma for a guaranteed victory, while opening rifts to three other worlds and dispatching the remaining calamities there. ℞𝘢𝐍ɵβÈṩ

In addition, the Planet-Destroying Turtles were sent to each of the five worlds, one per world.

The Planet-Destroying Turtles were terrifying calamities that could annihilate an entire world on their own.

Thus, Destruction’s offensive struck at the worlds again with its menacing claws.

99th Floor of the Black Tower.

Slurp.

“Mmm. This is good.”

When Sejun sipped his coffee and gave a thumbs-up with an expression of pure satisfaction,

Kuehehehe.

Cuengi grinned widely and clung to Sejun’s side, rubbing his head against Sejun’s body.

Kihihit. Kking!

[Hehe! Butler! Me too!]

Blackie, trying to make up for his earlier mistakes, also rubbed his head against Sejun’s leg.

But

“Blackie, if you’ve finished eating, go back to your punishment.”

Sejun’s punishment for Blackie wasn’t over yet.

Kking···

With a sullen expression, Blackie returned to his spot in front of the house, wearing a sign around his neck like a prisoner.

Hehehe. So cute.

Seeing Blackie and his subordinates like that softened Sejun’s heart.

I’ll just drink coffee and soothe them.

Slurp.

Sejun drank his coffee faster than usual, stood up, and

Tap.

As casually as he could, he picked up Blackie and placed him in his sling bag.

Kikihiit.

Thanks to that, Blackie and the other subordinates quickly cheered up.

When Sejun, carrying Blackie, woke up earlier than usual,

“Puhuhut. Great Hybrid Chairman Park, I’m off to work hard today too, meow!”

Kueng!

[Cuengi will work hard gathering herbs too!]

Theo and Cuengi also left for work earlier than usual.

With the two heading off to the 4th floor of the Golden Tower and the herb garden,

Clank.

“Hello, little ones.”

Sejun entered the Void Storage and planted the seeds of the Destruction Pioneers and Destruction Devourers.

The calamity corpses that had been stored in the Void Storage were moved to a storage room with preservation magic, leaving plenty of space again in the Void Storage.

For reference, before breakfast, he stopped by the 10th Tower and used the accumulated power of creation to upgrade the tower.

The Lighthouse of Creation, which had been completed five days ago and could burn Destruction, required 300,000L of creation energy per hour to operate, so it was currently turned off.

He had tried using it, but the lighthouse’s range was too short to be of much help.

“Good. I’ve planted all the seeds I got.”

Once Sejun finished planting the seeds, he started harvesting the fruits.

[You have harvested the Electrified Gold Kiwi.]

[‘You’re a Field’ Lv. 9 has activated, inflicting additional damage.]

[‘You’re a Field’ Lv. 9 has activated, harvesting the stats of Alice, the Mesmerizing Spider and 9th seat of the Apostles of Destruction.]

[Strength +35, Stamina +25, Agility +45, Magic Power +45.]

“Hehehe.”

Sejun smiled contentedly while harvesting stats again today.

But then

[Your Stamina stat’s potential has reached its limit.]

[Your Magic Power stat’s potential has reached its limit.]

[You can no longer absorb Stamina and Magic Power stats.]

[The acquired Stamina and Magic Power stats are returned to nature.]

As the Stamina and Magic Power stats were returned, Sejun’s battle aura grew stronger.

“Ugh!”

He grimaced as the muscle pain throughout his body intensified with the strengthening of his battle aura.

All 30 points of stat potential, which he had gained through the <Power: Sunfish Core>, had already been maxed out during breakfast.

And now… there was no one around to help him.

Theo and Cuengi, who usually gave him massages, were both at work.

“Urghh.”

Unable to avoid it, Sejun endured the muscle pain and continued working. Les said that even if muscles hurt, moving around helps the pain go away faster.

However

[You have harvested the Scorching Cherry.]

..

.

[Strength +35, Stamina +30, Agility +35, Magic Power +50.]

..

.

[The acquired Stamina and Magic Power stats are returned to nature.]

Once again, stat harvesting increased his battle aura and intensified his muscle pain.

“Argh!”

Unable to bear the intensified muscle pain, Sejun just lay down on the ground. Lying down was the position that involved the least muscle movement.

As he lay there resting,

[Seed Shop is now open.]

A message appeared in front of Sejun.

The 14th Seed Shop had opened.

[Park Sejun-nim’s rank is Transcendent.]

[Seven types of seeds, including Transcendence grade seeds, are randomly displayed for today’s sale.]

[At your current rank, you can purchase as many seeds as you want within a 500 Tower Coins limit.]

[Moonfruit seed (Transcendence grade) – 150 Tower Coins + 270 Pieces of World’s Energy]

[Generous Green Onion Seed (Transcendence grade) – 100 Tower Coins + 130 Pieces of World’s Energy]

[10,000 Carrot Seeds – 300 Tower Coins]

[10 Durian Seeds – 100 Tower Coins]

[5 Pine Tree Seeds – 80 Tower Coins]

[100 Bok Choy Seeds – 50 Tower Coins]

[50 Cabbage Seeds – 30 Tower Coins]

“If I buy all the Transcendence grade seeds, I’ll have 250 Tower Coins left…”

Sejun calculated the prices as he reviewed the seeds.

“I already have carrots, so I’ll skip that… But 300 Tower Coins for 10,000 seeds? Why is that so expensive? I’ve never tried durian, so I’ll buy it. And I should get pine trees since Christmas is in three months.”

Last year, he had missed out, but this year he was determined not to forget. He grinned, imagining himself dressed as Santa, giving presents to the others.

“Then… with 70 Tower Coins left…”

Sejun pondered whether to choose bok choy or cabbage.

“I’ll go with cabbage.”

He chose cabbage, which he could use in various dishes.

Once Sejun finished selecting his seeds,

[You have paid a total of 460 Tower Coins and 400 Pieces of World’s Energy to purchase Moonfruit seed, Generous Green Onion Seed, Durian Seed, Pine Tree Seed, and Cabbage Seed.]

[460 Tower Coins have been deducted from Park Sejun-nim’s Seed Bank account.]

[4,600 points have been accumulated in the Seed Shop’s mileage points.]

[You currently have a total of 14,601 Seed Shop mileage points.]

[You have spent 400 Pieces of World’s Energy.]

[400 Seed Shop Coupons have been issued.]

[The only item currently available for exchange is the Seed Shop Random Period Reduction Tickets.]

[The 400 Seed Shop Coupons have been automatically exchanged for 4 Seed Shop Random Period Reduction Tickets.]

Along with many messages, five leather pouches containing seeds and four time reduction tickets appeared in Sejun’s hands.

“Ugh.”

Struggling, Sejun painfully moved both arms to

Rip.

tear the reduction tickets.

[You have used the Seed Shop Random Period Reduction Ticket.]

..

.

1 day, 1 day, 2 days, 1 day.

Fortunately, one of the tickets yielded two days, so with the four random time reduction tickets, he managed to reduce the time by five days.

“To think I have to call this good luck…”

Sejun suddenly felt a pang of emptiness and sighed.

If only he had Theo’s golden front paw…

With the help of Theo, the King of Luck, the Seed Shop could have opened by now.

“You damned System, someday our Vice Chairman Theo will impeach you.”

With that thought, Sejun drifted off to sleep, hoping that Theo would avenge him one day.

Kurrr.

He fell asleep. The ground, warmed by the sunlight, was pleasantly cozy.

And then

Kihihit. Kking!

[Hehe! Follow the leader!]

Blackie, who was playing leader with the Destruction Devourers.

Kking? Kking!

[Butler! Are you asleep?]

Poke Poke

Blackie cautiously approached Sejun and nudged him with his front paw. He didn’t want to risk getting punished again.

Kurrr.

In response, only the sound of Sejun’s snoring was heard.

Kihihit. Kking? Kking!

[Hehe! Is butler asleep? Then I’ll sleep too!]

The Blackie family snuggled into the warm space under Sejun’s arm.

Hehe. So warm…

Kyurorong.

They quickly drifted off to sleep.

A few hours later.

“Puhuhut. Great Hybrid Chairman Park, I’ve returned, meow!”

Theo, who had sold out all of Sejun’s crops, returned and ran over to Sejun.

Kurrr.

Kyurorong.

Eomrorong.

..

.

“Meow?”

Theo found Sejun and the Blackie family asleep, lying on top of Alice, the Apostle of Destruction.

“Puhuhut. Is it nap time, meow?!”

Plop.

Theo climbed onto Sejun’s lap, intending to join in on the nap.

“Ugh…”

Sejun groaned in pain.

“Meow?! Muscle pain again, meow?!”

Press. Press.

As Theo started massaging Sejun’s body with his front paws

Smile.

As Theo continued, the pained expression on Sejun’s face began to soften.

While Theo was massaging Sejun,

Kueng! Kueng?

[Dad, Cuengi’s back! Dad, are you hurting again?]

Cuengi, who had returned from gathering herbs, noticed Sejun and joined Theo in massaging him.

“Mmm…”

I must have dozed off.

As Sejun opened his eyes, the fatigue from the muscle pain had disappeared.

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, are you awake, meow?”

Kueng?

[Dad, are you not hurting anymore?]

Theo and Cuengi clung to Sejun’s knee and side.

“Yes. Thanks to Theo and Cuengi’s massage, I’m not in pain anymore. Thank you.”

As Sejun patted both of their heads,

“Puhuhut.”

Kuehehehe.

Both of them smiled happily, their faces filled with joy.

Kking…

On the other hand, Blackie, who had been enjoying the warmth, frowned when Sejun stood up, and, with his eyes still closed, he started to wriggle around, searching for the warm scent of his butler.

Flop.

Hehe. So warm.

He nestled his face against Sejun’s backside and drifted off to sleep again.

Hehehe. So soft.

Puhuhut.

Kuehehehe.

Kyurorong.

As everyone enjoyed their peaceful time together,

-Sejun!

-We need you!

-Help!

From afar, black, white, and purple dragon statues came flying swiftly. Strangely, the red dragon statue, which was usually with them, was nowhere to be seen.

And then

“So, you’re asking me to make some strong liquor to help Ramter-nim regain his spirits?”

They explained the reason for their visit.

They wanted Sejun to help Ramter, who was struggling with feelings of anger, guilt, and defeat after losing Kanos.

And why did they understand Ramter’s emotions so well?

Because all three dragons had experienced it themselves.

When the number of worlds they had managed and subsequently lost to destruction was added up, it easily surpassed a thousand.

So they understood Ramter’s devastated heart well.

“Strong liquor, huh… Kkabi, help me out.”

Shalarang!

After a moment of contemplation, Sejun called on Kkabi, who possessed the Power of Decay, and began working on creating a new brew to help Ramter recover his spirit.

***

Combat Shop Headquarters.

“You bastard! Do you have any idea how much Divine Power I wasted because of you?! You said cats like live mice?!”

Battler shouted as he grabbed Hunt, the God of Hunting and author of 1000 Ways to Completely Win a Cat’s Heart, by the collar.

“P-please, wait a second, Battler-nim!”

Hunt, who was caught by the collar, hurriedly opened his mouth. If he stayed silent, he was definitely going to get hit.

“A cat that doesn’t like mice… Battler-nim, you just had bad luck. It’s a rare case.”

“A rare case?”

“Yes, but don’t worry! With this new book I recently finished, you won’t have any problems!”

With a confident tone, Hunt handed Battler another book.

[7 Ultimate Techniques to Get Chosen by a Cat as Its Owner]

“This time it’s the real deal, right?”

“Of course! I am Hunt! The God of Hunting, who knows and perfectly understands the habits of every animal!”

Hunt replied with a self-assured expression to Battler’s question.

“Alright. I’ll trust you one more time.”

Battler took the book and went back home, diving into study mode once again.
