Solo Farming In The Tower

Chapter 699: It Belongs to Great Blackie!

TL: Hanguk

PR: MiniPixelZ

99th Floor of the Black Tower.

[You have completely eliminated the Corruption within the <World’s Energy> and completed the <Purified World’s Energy>]

[You have completed the quest.]

[As a quest completion reward, all stats have increased by 7.]

..

[As a quest completion reward, the stay fee for the 0th floor has been reduced by 0.0001%.]

“Ugh. It’s done.”

Sejun welcomed the morning while checking the quest reward messages.

And then,

“Meow…”

Kking…

He began his morning routine by picking up the still-sleeping Theo couple and the Blackie Family.

While he was working like that,

Thud. Thud.

Pink-fur came to visit.

A little later.

After breakfast was over,

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, I’ll go make lots of money today, meow!”

Kuehehehe. Kueng!

[Hehehe. Cuengi will head out too!]

Theo and Cuengi went off to work.

“Let’s go, Blackie.”

Kihihit. Kking!

[Hehe. Butler! Great Blackie will harvest all the sweet potatoes!]

Sejun worked on the farm with Blackie.

[You have harvested Stamina Corn.]

..

.

While Sejun was harvesting corn,

Hehe. Guys, the Great Blackie will harvest them up without damage!

Blackie started harvesting sweet potatoes in the sweet potato field.

About an hour passed after they began working,

Kihihit.

Great Blackie is now rich with roasted and dried sweet potatoes!

In between work, Blackie grinned as he looked at the roasted and dried sweet potatoes stuffed in his snack pouch.

Out of the 100 pieces of roasted and dried sweet potatoes received as a birthday gift yesterday, he had eaten 5, leaving 95.

At that moment.

“Park Blackie, are you going to keep staring at your pouch and not work? If you keep it up, I’m confiscating your roasted and dried sweet potatoes.”

Sejun, who had finished harvesting the corn field, approached and nagged him.

Kking! Kking…

[Tch. Stingy butler…]

Grumbling, Blackie,

Chomp.

Bit and tugged on a sweet potato stem in front of him with his teeth.

Crunch.

Kking?

Among the sweet potatoes he dug out, there was one that was clearly different in size and energy compared to the others.

And then.

[The third apostle of Creation, the guardian of Park Sejun, the tower farmer of the Black Tower, Park Blackie, the noble wolf who hunts roasted and dried sweet potato slices, has harvested a new variety of Extremely Delicious Royal Honey Sweet Potato.]

A message appeared before Sejun.

“Huh?”

The noble wolf who hunts roasted and dried sweet potato slices?

What caught Sejun’s eye first wasn’t the new variety, but the title. Blackie, who used to be the noble wolf that hunts gods, was now reduced to the noble wolf who hunts roasted and dried sweet potato slices.

After spending time with Sejun, even Blackie’s title had become trivial.

“Puhuh!”

Sejun laughed at Blackie, not realizing it might have rubbed off on him.

[Guard’s achievements are also the achievements of the Landlord.]

[Congratulations!]

[You have achieved the feat of creating a new variety in the Tower.]

..

.

[Due to your Job Trait, all stats have increased by 20.]

Following that, another message appeared.

While Sejun was checking the messages,

Kihihit. Kking! Kking!

[Hehe. Great Blackie harvested it! So, it belongs to Great Blackie!]

Lick. Lick. Lick.

Blackie was diligently licking the Extremely Delicious Royal Honey Sweet Potato.

“Park Blackie, what the hell are you doing? That’s gross.”

Sejun took the Extremely Delicious Royal Honey Sweet Potato away from Blackie and checked its effects.

[Extremely Delicious Royal Honey Sweet Potato]

→ A mutant sweet potato born from absorbing the best nutrition and sunlight at the highest place in the Tower, possessing taste and effects at the very limit of what a sweet potato can reach.

→ Upon consumption, all stats increase by 25 for one hour. (Can stack up to 10 times.)

→ Every time you eat 10, all stats permanently increase by 5.

→ Cultivator: Park Sejun, Tower Farmer of the Black Tower

→ Shelf Life: 180 days

→ Grade: S

“Oh.”

Taste that has reached the limits of what a sweet potato can be?

‘Then how delicious is it?’

Reading the description, Sejun was filled with tremendous anticipation.

And then.

Hop. Hop.

Kking! Kking!

[Butler! That belongs to Great Blackie! Give it back!]

Blackie clung tightly to Sejun’s leg, barking earnestly as he asserted ownership over the Extremely Delicious Royal Honey Sweet Potato.

But.

“Hehehe. Blackie, well done. Here. Eat this.”

When Sejun praised him and handed over five roasted and dried sweet potatoes,

Kihihit.

Great Blackie now has 100 roasted and dried sweet potatoes!

Blackie was quickly appeased and went back to harvesting sweet potatoes.

As soon as Blackie left,

Snap.

Sejun placed the Extremely Delicious Royal Honey Sweet Potato into the Pouch of Abundance, and multiplied its seeds.

At that moment.

[Your slave, Zelga, the Tower Farmer of the Blue Tower, has harvested a new variety: the Seedless Watermelon that Brings Torrential Rain.]

[The slave’s achievement is the master’s achievement.]

[Congratulations!]

[You have achieved the feat of creating a new variety in the Tower.]

..

.

[Due to your Job Trait, all stats have increased by 20.]

This time, it was Zelga who had harvested a new variety.

“Again?”

What’s going on today? Why is my luck so good?

104.28.193.250

Sejun rejoiced, thrilled at his good fortune.

“Zelga, well done. Have some potatoes.”

He praised Zelga and sent him a bunch of steamed potatoes, then received the new watermelon variety via Tower Transport.

[Seedless Watermelon that Brings Torrential Rain]

Just the name alone made it obvious why it would bring torrential rain. How unfair must it feel? It must want to cry.

Feeling empathy for the watermelon, Sejun checked its options.

[Seedless Watermelon that Brings Torrential Rain]

→ A mutant watermelon grown in the Blue Tower, having absorbed a large amount of water energy, and born without seeds.

→ Filled with resentment over its seedlessness, the watermelon harbors immense rage.

→ When impacted, the watermelon’s anger explodes, causing a torrential downpour.

→ When consumed, maintains moist skin for a month, increases all stats by 50, and has a low chance of awakening water-attribute talent.

→ Cultivator: Park Sejun, Tower Farmer

→ Shelf Life: 180 days

→ Grade: S

After reviewing the options, Sejun placed the Seedless Watermelon that Brings Torrential Rain into the Pouch of Abundance to increase its count.

Since it could not provide seeds, the only way to increase its quantity was through the pouch, just like with the Transcendence Black Beans and Medicinal Mugwort.

“Hehehe.”

Is today some kind of lucky day?

Sejun smiled happily and continued farming.

Under the blazing sun of a late afternoon, it was indeed a lucky day.

***

Land of Destruction.

“…Not to be afraid when seeing me…”

Corruption furrowed its brow, wearing an expression of disbelief.

From birth until now,

It had lived for tens of billions of years.

Yet no one had ever greeted it warmly, let alone treated it casually after seeing its form.

Being scared was the best-case scenario; most felt disgust.

Corruption had never been welcomed. In contrast, Primordial, who was born alongside Corruption, was welcomed by all.

That only deepened Corruption’s hatred toward Primordial, and Primordial distanced itself and severed ties.

Then, without a word, Primordial vanished, leaving Corruption completely alone.

Ever since, Corruption wandered various places, but never once was it welcomed.

Each time, wounds piled upon Corruption’s heart, hardening it.

A thick armor of emotional defense was built that way…

But just from Sejun not fearing its appearance, a small crack of hope began forming in that armor.

“Kukukuk. Not bad. But will you remain unfazed even at this face?”

So Corruption practiced even scarier expressions, hoping Sejun would fear him. He didn’t want the armor to break. He didn’t want to be hurt anymore.

And.

Tremble. Tremble.

The pure mental fragments of the next God of Creation, hiding nearby, shivered in fear as they secretly watched Corruption.

***

37th Floor of the Green Tower.

“Puhuhut. Then I shall begin the auction, meow! The first item from the Great Hybrid Chairman Park’s farm is the Golden Kiwi, meow! I’ll sell a total of 10,000 in batches of 100, meow!”

“100,000 Tower Coins!”

“100,100 Tower Coins!”

“100,200 Tower Coins!”

With Theo’s announcement, his first return to the Green Tower in almost eight months, the merchants hurried to place their bids.

“300,000 Tower Coins!”

“310,000 Tower Coins!”

In an instant, the bidding tripled from the starting price.

A little later.

“Puhuhut. Sold, meow!”

Theo sold 10,000 Golden Kiwis and earned 5 billion Tower Coins.

“Puhuhut. Next is…”

Just like that, Theo continued selling Sejun’s crops.

“Puhuhut. The final crop is this, meow!”

When Theo took out a single carrot,

“A carrot?”

“It looks weird.”

“Is it defective?”

“Hey! What are you talking about?! Do you think Vice Chairman Theo would sell a defective product?!”

“Yeah! If you’re going to say stuff like that, then get out!”

The merchants stirred in response.

At that moment.

“Puhuhut. This is the Confession Carrot, meow! If you share and eat this carrot, your confession will be successful, meow! Starting at 10 billion Tower Coins each, meow!”

Theo said with an evil smile.

Then.

What?! If you confess, it works?!

This will definitely make money!

There are so many wealthy forever-alones in the Green Tower!

Upon hearing Theo’s words, the merchants stared at the Confession Carrot with greedy eyes.

“11 billion Tower Coins!”

“15 billion Tower Coins!”

“20 billion Tower Coins!”

The bidding prices shot up rapidly.

And then.

“Puhuhut. Sold out at 50 billion Tower Coins, meow!”

Theo sold just five Confession Carrots and made more money than he had from the auctioning of the other crops earlier.

He still had 5,000 more Confession Carrots in his bag, but Theo did not get greedy.

Puhuhut. If I sell like this, I can drive the price up even more, meow!

He had come to understand the law of scarcity through repeated experience.

“Puhuhut. Indeed, I am an amazing legendary merchant, meow!”

I should hurry to Chairman Park and boast about how amazing I am, meow!

Theo, who had only now realized a fact that most merchants already knew, headed back to the Black Tower with a proud expression on his face.

If someone were to ask what Theo had accomplished until now?

Theo didn’t know a thing. He just worked hard at selling. He was simply incredibly lucky.

Snap.

Thus Theo, emerging from the bag of the legendary merchant wandering the nine towers, arrived at the Black Tower.

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, I’m back, meow!”

Using Light Speed Meow-Step, he clung to Sejun’s face.

“You’re back?”

“That’s right, meow! Meow…”

Unfazed, Sejun grabbed Theo by the scruff of his neck and pulled him off his face.

He was far too used to it by now.

At that moment.

Kuehehehe. Kueng!

[Hehehe. Dad, Cuengi is back!]

Dadadadak.

Cuengi came running from a distance, calling for Sejun, and quickly arrived at his side.

Once everyone was gathered,

Kihihit. Kking!

[Hehe. Hyung! Today, Great Blackie…]

Just as Blackie was about to brag to Theo and Cuengi about harvesting a new variety of sweet potato,

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, listen to me, meow! I finally realized…”

Theo began boasting to Sejun.

Kuehehehe. Kueng!

[Hehehe. Dad, Cuengi worked super hard in the herb field today and expanded it by 330000 square meters!]

Cuengi interrupted him and bragged instead.

“Hah! Cuengi! I was talking to Chairman Park, why are you cutting in, meow?!”

Theo got upset because of this, and

Kueng!

[Cuengi was going to speak first!]

Cuengi raised his voice too.

And then.

Kking?! Kking!

[Why aren’t you listening to Great Blackie?! Listen now!]

Blackie also barked hard to make Theo and Cuengi listen to him.

As the three of them argued noisily,

“Enough. Let’s eat.”

“Puhuhut. Sounds good, meow!”

Kuehehehe. Kueng!

[Hehehe. Sounds good!]

Kihihit. Kking!

[Hehe. Butler! Give me roasted and dried sweet potatoes!]

At Sejun’s words, the group quieted down and headed to the cooking area with him for a joyful dinner.

“Alright. Theo, you go first.”

Of course, during the meal, Sejun let Theo, Cuengi, and Blackie speak freely in turn.

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, listen carefully, meow! I finally realized.…”

Theo started talking excitedly.

A peaceful day came to an end as Sejun listened to everyone’s stories.
