Solo Farming In The Tower

TL: Hanguk

PR: MiniPixelZ

99th floor of the Black Tower.

Crunch.

“Wow!”

Sejun exclaimed after eating deep-fried squid made with the Black Flame Fire Moth.

Since it was coated in the perfect batter created by Cuengi, the gourmet expert, fried at the exact temperature for the precise time, and dipped in seasoning soy sauce Sejun made himself, it was bound to be delicious.

Chomp chomp.

Crunch.

Slurp.

Kueng!

“Hehehehe.”

Kyaong! Nyongnyong! Ppokppok! Jjajjjakjjjak!

Next to Sejun, Cuengi, Uren, and the guardian beasts were all frantically eating stir-fried squid, fried squid, and squid cold soup.

While everyone was aggressively eating the Black Flame Fire Moth dishes,

“Puhuhut. As expected, the grilled fish made by the great hybrid Chairman Park is the best, meow!”

“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. The stir-fried peanuts made by Sejun~nim himself are delicious too.”

Piyo! Piyo!

[That’s right! Sejun~nim’s stir-fried peanuts are the best!]

Theo, Iona, and Piyot, who had their favorite dishes, were leisurely enjoying their meal.

Kihihit. Kking!

[Hehe. Butler’s roasted and dried sweet potatoes are the best!]

Chomp. Chomp. Chomp.

Though there were some who weren’t into it.

104.28.193.250

Once the meal ended,

Slurp.

“By the way, why did you come up so early?”

Sejun asked Piyot while drinking the coffee Cuengi had brewed for him. Originally, the plan was to let the guardian beasts go on a Tower tour for about a month and return afterward.

Piyo…

[The truth is…]

Piyot explained the reason they came up.

“What?! Everyone is getting ready to come up to the 99th floor of the Tower for the birthday party?!”

Piyot delivered a piece of news Sejun hadn’t even considered.

Last year, the rabbits, wolves, and other Black Minotaurs who received birthdays from Sejun had spread the dates around.

As a result, all the residents of the Black Tower now had their birthdays unified as March 23rd.

And the Black Tower’s residents wanted to celebrate with Sejun, the original source of the birthday.

Piyo! Piyo!

[Yes! So I came to suggest that we should make invitations and distribute them like last time to avoid congestion!]

“Puhuhut. Excellent idea, meow! As expected of my right front paw, meow!”

Looks like I can make a lot of money, meow!

Theo, pleased with Piyot’s suggestion, gently patted Piyot on the head with a satisfied smile.

Pphuhut.

Piyot smiled proudly as well.

However,

Ah. I was planning to take it easy starting tomorrow…

Sejun couldn’t bring himself to smile.

How many days are left until the birthday?

“Today is March 8th, so…”

Sejun counted the days.

About two weeks left?

“Guys, since we had a big birthday party last year, let’s make it a smaller one this year and only invite 10,000 people.”

Even though he tried to reduce it, Sejun’s scale of numbers had grown too large, completely out of sync with his conservative intentions.

While Sejun was unknowingly creating more work for himself,

“Puhuhut. Cuengi, bring all the paper to make the invitations, meow!”

It’s an opportunity to fatten up the great hybrid Chairman Park’s bank account, meow!

Kueng!

Following big bro’s command, Cuengi hurriedly brought all the paper from the storage.

When Cuengi handed over the paper,

Stamp.

Theo began stamping his paw print on them to create birthday party invitations.

Puhuhut. Chairman Park, don’t worry, meow! I, Vice Chairman Theo, will fill the 99th floor of the Tower with birthday party attendees, meow!

Sejun’s “just 10,000” had already morphed into “at least 10,000” in Theo’s mind.

Theo was adding a massive pile of work on top of Sejun’s already heavy workload.

“Iona, make the invitations impossible to duplicate, meow!”

“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Yes. Power of magic. Make this seal unique…”

To prevent a repeat of last time, he asked Iona to place an anti-duplication magic spell on the invitations.

However, due to the limited paper supply, they were only able to make 5,000 invitations.

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, I’ll go down and sell out all the invitations, meow!”

“Okay.”

Theo, along with Iona and Piyot’s party, hurried down the Tower.

“Baektang come with me, meow!”

Kyaong! Kyaong!

[No! I want to stay!]

Baektang, who didn’t want to come, was dragged away by force. Theo couldn’t leave behind a rival who might aim for Sejun’s lap in his absence.

After Theo and the group went down the Tower,

“Cuengi, shall we finish things up?”

Kueng!

[Sounds good]

Sejun and Cuengi focused on preparing food for the dragons’ meeting. Although the cooking was done, the final step of garnishing the dishes remained.

And then

Kihihit.

This time, I have to succeed.

Blackie, who enjoyed the thrill, had purposely rejected Sejun’s earlier offer and was again lurking, aiming for the food.

It’s no fun if it’s too easy!

Kking!

[Signal me when the butler turns his head!]

With his subordinates on lookout, Blackie carefully bit into a fried squid and tried to sneak away.

“Hey! Park Blackie!”

Once again, He was caught by Sejun.

But

Great Blackie always has a plan!

Blackie even had a plan for getting caught.

That plan was blackmail.

Grrr. Kking!

[Grrrr. If you give Great Blackie a diet menu, Great Blackie will burn butler’s money!]

Blackie, the arsonist dog, growled and threatened Sejun.

However

“Hehehe. Go ahead and burn it if you can.”

Sejun was unbothered. That was because Theo had already burned through all of Sejun’s money earlier while defeating the Black Flame Fire Moth.

In other words, Sejun was broke without a single Tower Coin to burn.

“But to dare threaten me with growling, how long should our naughty Blackie be on a diet menu?”

Sejun pretended to ponder seriously.

This isn’t right…

Kking! Kking!

[Butler, Great Blackie was just joking! Great Blackie will behave well!]

Blackie swung his tail vigorously in front of Sejun, trying to act cute.

But

“Too late.”

It didn’t work, and for threatening Sejun, Blackie was sentenced to two weeks of forced dieting until the birthday party.

Kking…

[I should have listened to big brother…]

I should never threaten to burn butler’s money again.

Under Sejun’s stern(?) punishment, Blackie came to his senses and sealed away his power to burn Sejun’s money. Though it was unclear how long this would last.

“Hehehe.”

Who do you think you’re messing with?

Sejun was happy about winning against Blackie.

But now that Theo’s not around, it does feel a bit chilly.

He looked at his knee, now free after a long time, with a slightly lonely expression.

However

“But I hope Vice Chairman Theo doesn’t cause any trouble. He hasn’t gone down recently, so I’m a bit worried.”

Sejun’s expression soon turned to concern.

***

On the way down the Tower.

“Puhuhut. Uren, how many of our Great Hybrid Chairman Park’s birthday invitations will you be buying, meow?!”

Theo asked Uren, as if it was a given.

“Uh… how many should I be buying?”

Uren responded with a blank expression to Theo’s question.

“Puhuhut. Buy 300,000, meow!”

“Hehehehe. Okay. Then give me 300,000.”

“Puhuhut. Got it, meow! The price is 1 million Tower Coins per invitation, meow!”

Uren simply bought the amount Theo said.

“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Theo~nim, I’ll take 200,000. I think I’ll give them to the wizards at the Wizard Tower, and the Wizard Association.”

“Puhuhut. As expected, Iona has a kind heart, meow!”

“Kyoot kyoot kyoot.”

Then Iona also ordered invitations.

Piyo! Piyo!

[Theo~nim, I’ll take 50,000 too! I want to give them to my friends in the Kingdom of Kov!]

Piyot also bought invitations.

Just like that, Theo instantly sold 550,000 birthday invitations through Iona, Uren, and Piyot’s purchases.

The party scale Sejun envisioned had grown 5,400% in a flash.

“Puhuhut. First, I better head to the market street and buy all the paper to start making invitations, meow!”

Of course, this was just the beginning.

Theo and his party arrived at the market street and bought up all the paper in every store, then stayed up all night making invitations.

***

The territory of the Great Silver Dragon.

When the day of the 5th dragon meeting arrived,

Thump. Thump.

The other great dragons began arriving at the Silver Dragon’s territory in droves.

“Great Silver Dragon Crisella Hisron~nim, thank you for the invitation.”

“Welcome, Great Blue Dragon Karl Aster.”

“Great Silver Dragon Crisella Hisron~nim, thank you for inviting…”

The great dragons greeted Crisella.

The first place they headed after greetings was the banquet hall where Sejun’s food had been prepared.

Hmm. With that amount of food, the number of Great Dragons must be…

With their exceptional intellects, they took into account various variables and calculated precisely down to the gram how much they would be able to eat.

Once all the dragons had gathered,

“Then, I will now begin the 5th Dragon Meeting.”

With Crisella’s words, the meeting commenced.

Topics regarding the Creator God, Black Moon, Destruction, and Corruption were raised in order, but most of the discussion involved sharing analyses based on the information brought by Sejun.

Because there was nothing they could directly intervene in.

The Creator God, said to be in the Temple of the Creator, had not issued any separate instructions, as if leaving things to unfold as they would.

The energy of Destruction leaking from the Black Moon served as a means of producing Tower Coins used in the Dragon Market, so they were actually hoping for even more of it.

Moreover, Destruction had not shown itself, making it impossible to come up with any countermeasures.

Finally, Corruption…

“Corruption?”

“It has existed since the Primordial God’s time?!”

Even the dragons, who had lived for tens of thousands of years, had never heard of such an existence.

Once all the scheduled topics had concluded,

“Ahem. Great Silver Dragon Crisella Hisron. I would like to propose one additional agenda item.”

Kaiser spoke up, his voice slightly hesitant.

“Great Black Dragon Kaiser Pritani. Permission granted. Proceed with your proposal.”

“Soon it will be the birthday of Tower Farmer Park Sejun of the Black Tower. As we Great Dragons have been indebted to Park Sejun, I request that we bestow upon him the title of Honorary Great Dragon.”

Kaiser proposed a birthday gift for Sejun.

“Grandfather! You know Sejun’s birthday is coming up, right?! Please give him the title of Honorary Great Dragon as a birthday present!”

“That’s right! Give my brother-in-law the title!”

Naturally, Kaiser was moved by Aileen and Ace.

“What?! The title of Honorary Great Dragon?!”

“Even for Sejun…”

“It is Sejun’s birthday?”

“But can we handle the consequences if we give him that title?”

The leaders were shaken by Kaiser’s words.

The title of Honorary Great Dragon was an esteemed title that had only been granted once since the birth of the Great Dragons. It required the agreement of at least five of the nine Great Dragon leaders.

And one who received the title of Honorary Great Dragon would be treated as an equal Great Dragon by the other Great Dragons.

In other words, it meant treating Sejun as a real member of their tribe.

It was part of Aileen’s grand plan to marry Sejun.

“I, Great White Dragon Kellion Mamebe, agree.”

“I, Great Red Dragon Ramter Zahir, also agree.”

“I, Great Gold Dragon Artemis Yul, agree to bestow the title of Honorary Great Dragon to Park Sejun.”

“I, Great Silver Dragon Crisella Hisron, also…”

“I, Great Green Dragon Brachio Iorg, also…”

The leaders, who had received much from Sejun, began to agree one by one.

“I, Great Blue Dragon Kin Aster, agree.”

“With this, all the leaders of the Great Dragons have unanimously agreed to bestow the title of Honorary Great Dragon upon Park Sejun.”

Sejun had been unanimously granted the title of Honorary Great Dragon.

And then

“Now, those Great Dragons who wish to place a part of their dragon heart into the title to be given to Park Sejun, come forward.”

“I will do it.”

“I will!”

Thump. Thump.

The leaders eagerly stepped forward at Crisella’s words.

“If we all put our hearts in, Sejun will die. So only I, the one who proposed it, will put mine in.”

“It can’t be helped.”

Kaiser warned off the other leaders and carefully extracted a small part of his dragon heart, and completed the title of Honorary Great Dragon by placing it into the magically formed title.

However

[You have received the <Title: Honorary Great Dragon> by unanimous agreement of the Nine Great Dragons.]

[You are unable to withstand the power of the title.]

[Your life is in danger.]

“Ugh!”

Contrary to Kaiser’s expectations, Sejun could not endure even a single dragon heart and collapsed, drifting between life and death.

Kueng

[Dad, hang in there]

Kking!

[Butler!]

Cuengi and Blackie worked hard to heal Sejun.

As always, sunfish Sejun fell far short of the Great Dragons’ expectations.
