TL: Hanguk
Green Dragons Territory.
Its suspicious
Brachio Iorg, the leader of the Green Dragons, said this as she watched the Black Dragon, White Dragon, Red Dragon, and Purple Dragon clean the red mist in her territory.
The four dragon clans came to the Green Dragons territory to clean the red mist.
The Green Dragons were happy they didnt have to do the bothersome task,
Kyeeek! Dont touch that! 𝘳.𝑐ℴ
I saw it first!
The dragon who can take it first owns it!
Guys, fighting is a waste of time! Lets aim for that side!
Seeing the four dragon clans competing with each other to eliminate even a bit more of the red mist, Brachio thought,
Theres something
She couldnt shake off the thought that there was something she didnt know going on here.
It cant be that theyre after Tower Coins is it?
The Tower Coins that emerge from dissipating the red mist.
Tower Coins are a means of transaction for the residents living inside the tower.
However, dragons didnt need Tower Coins. If they needed something, they just had to ask.
Naturally, no tower resident would refuse a dragons request, so they didnt need Tower Coins.
I need to find out what it is.
Brachio got up and approached the dragons cleaning the red mist.
***
What do you mean by war, meow?
Piyo!
[300,000 troops from the Caiman Kingdom suddenly attacked the 83rd floor of the tower at dawn! The one commanding the Caiman kingdoms army is the 1st prince of the Caiman Kingdom]
In response to Theos question, Piyot explained in detail what it knew, not forgetting a single thing.
Thanks to one of the messenger bird-exclusive skills, Absolute Memory.
Until just a moment ago, Piyot was receiving official messenger bird education on the 79th floor of the tower and had come up to deliver the news of the war.
This cant be, meow! Thats where Chairman Parks chestnut trees and subordinates are, meow! Cuengi! Ajax, gather around, meow!
Theo hurriedly called the other second-in-commands,
Piyo!
[Ill go check if theres more news then!]
Piyot went back down the tower.
And then,
Thats why I called, meow!
Kueng! Kueng!
[They cant touch dads land! If you did, Cuengi will punish them!]
If they mess with Sejun hyungs farm on the 83rd floor, I, the great White Dragon Ajax, will punish them!
When Theo told them that Sejuns farm on the 83rd floor might be in danger, the two grinded their teeth in anger,
Huhuhuh. Kids, why are you so serious?
Sejun, who had just finished his business feeling good and humming a tune, approached holding Fenrir.
Kking!
I almost dug it all up!
Fenrir, the sweet potato thief, was caught red-handed by Sejun while digging up sweet potatoes that hadnt even fully grown yet.
As Sejun approached like that,
Lets go, meow!
Kueng!
[Lets go quickly!]
Lets go!
Theo, Cuengi, and Ajax exclaimed as they clung to Sejuns body.
Go where? I dont have time to play today. Theres so much to do.
He needed to harvest the Detoxifying Green Onions for Tier and plant the seeds of the Thick Darkness Cherries.
And so on
Sejun recalled his tasks for the day.
Then,
Meow! Chairman Park, now is not the time, meow! Theres been a war, meow
Kueng! Kueng!
[Thats right! We need to protect the chestnut tree farm!]
Right! Are you going to abandon your subordinates?!
The three urged Sejun.
Huh?! What are you talking about? A war?
Only then did Sejun realize that they werent just asking him to play around.
Chairman Park, lets talk while we head to the waypoint, meow!
Alright. Toryong!
Sejun called for Toryong to move to the waypoint.
As they headed towards the waypoint,
What?! 300,000?
Thats right, meow!
Sejun heard from Theo that 300,000 troops from the Caiman Kingdom had invaded the 83rd floor of the tower.
I wonder if those guys are okay?
Sejun checked his newly acquired talent while worrying about the chestnut hedgehogs. He wanted to see if it would be helpful in battle.
[Talent: Bringer of Nightmares]
This is a talent that can only be possessed by those who have eaten the heart of the Nightmare, Demon King of Nightmares.
It bestows nightmares upon your enemies.
The higher your rank compared to your enemy, the more effective it becomes. (If the gap is significant, the enemy cannot wake up from the nightmare.)
You cannot bring nightmares to an enemy of higher rank. .𝒎
According to the description, it was a talent that made the enemy have nightmares.
But,
This wont be helpful
Since enemies dont usually sleep during battle, it couldnt be used.
While Sejun was checking his talent,
Chairman Park, weve arrived, meow!
Theo announced their arrival at the waypoint.
Yeah. Go inside.
Click.
As Sejun opened the void storage,
Sssssh.
Theo, Cuengi, and Ajax went inside.
And then,
Click.
Sejun put Fenrir, which was in his pocket, into the void storage.
Kking?! Kking!
Where are you going alone again?! Take me with you!
Fenrir didnt want to be separated from Sejun.
Kueng!
[Blackie, stay still!]
Cuengi was holding onto Fenrir while,
Click.
Sejun closed the door of the void storage.
And then,
[Moving to the 83rd floor of the Black Tower.]
Using the waypoint, he moved to the 83rd floor of the tower.
***
83rd floor of the tower.
Tap. Tap.
The 300,000 troops of the Caiman Kingdom moving towards the road leading to the 82nd floor.
At that moment,
Thunk.
Aaargh!
The Caiman Kingdom soldiers at the very front collapsed with a scream. The thorns were coated with the poison of the poisonous bees.
There are poisoned thorns on the ground!
Watch your step!
Yes!
The soldiers carefully watched their steps, at the words of the frontline soldiers.
However,
Kwieek!
[Attack!]
Godori had no intention of letting the soldiers move comfortably.
Bounce.
Kwieek! Kwieek!
Following Godoris command, 1000 hedgehogs that were hiding their bodies in the ground got up and
Whoosh.
They turned their backs toward the soldiers and fired thorns coated with poison.
Dodge!
The soldiers hurriedly moved to avoid the thorns.
However,
Thunk. Thunk.
Argh!
Unable to properly dodge because of the thorns on the ground,
Thud. Thud.
Soldiers who stepped on or were hit by flying thorns fell.
In the meantime,
Kwieek!
[Well done! Return!]
Kwieek! Kwieek!
Following Godoris command, the hedgehogs, now bare after shooting all their thorns, quickly returned to the chestnut tree farm, exposing their pink undersides.
In the meantime,
The 2nd row, stand at the front, and archers, line up in the 3rd to 5th rows!
At the commanders order, the soldiers quickly changed their positions, and
Advance!
The soldiers, now in formation, marched forward again,
Kwieek!
[Attack!]
Whoosh.
This time, 2000 hedgehogs rose from both sides of the soldiers, shot their poison thorns, and returned to the farm.
While the hedgehogs were inflicting damage on the Caiman Kingdom army,
Why cant we move forward?!
Croker Caiman, who was slowly following from behind, noticed the soldiers unable to advance.
Thats in front
What?! You mean to say the soldiers are having trouble because of mere hedgehogs?!
Angered by the commanders report, Crokers eyes turned red.
And then,
You have nothing to fear. You will become brave soldiers who can fight dragons.
He stretched out his hand towards the soldiers with a mad declaration.
Then, from Crokers hand, the red mist spread out and was absorbed by the soldiers, making their skin harden.
Soldiers! Go! Go and show the greatness of our Caiman Kingdom army!
Waaah!
At Crockers command, the soldiers, whose eyes had turned red, shouted and marched toward the chestnut tree farm.
Tap. Tap.
The Caiman Kingdom army, now fearless, quickly surrounded the chestnut tree farm completely and entered inside.
However, the hedgehogs were nowhere to be seen. Only the flourishing chestnuts were visible.
Then,
Kwieek!
[Attack!]
Kwieek! Kwieek!
Following Godoris command, the hedgehogs that had regenerated their thorns shot them at the soldiers.
But,
Ting! Ting!
Now the hedgehogs thorns couldnt penetrate the soldiers skin, which had been hardened by Crokers power.
Kwieek?!
The hedgehogs panicked.
The king says he will personally annihilate those vermin! Drive the hedgehogs into a corner!
Yes!
Following the commanders orders, the soldiers threatened the hedgehogs and gradually pushed them towards the center of the farm.
***
[You have arrived at the 83rd floor of the Black Tower.]
[Moved from the top floor, the 99th floor, to the 83rd floor.]
[You have descended 16 floors.]
[Due to the effect of the title <Retrogressor>, all stats increase by 16.]
As soon as Sejun arrived on the 83rd floor,
Click.
Chairman Park, lets hurry, meow!
Kueng!
[Well teach those bad guys a lesson!]
Ill crush them!
The void storage opened, and Theo, Cuengi, and Ajax ran out and clung to him,
Plop.
Kking!
Hey! Take me with you!
Fenrir also jumped out of the void storage,
Click.
And approached Sejuns feet, biting his shoes to make sure he was taken along.
Got it. Ill take Blackie too. Toryong!
Click.
Sejun put Fenrir in his pocket and called Toryong, hurrying towards the chestnut tree farm.
***
How dare you block my way, you have some courage.
Croker spoke as he looked at the hedgehogs surrounded by his soldiers.
Then,
Kwieek!
[Youre the one who has the audacity to invade the farm of the great Black Dragon Park Sejun!]
Godori retorted without backing down.
What?! Are you saying this is the Black Dragons farm?!
Kwieek! Kwieek!
[Yes! We might die, but the great Black Dragon Park Sejun will avenge us!]
Kwieek! Kwieek!
The hedgehogs eagerly agreed with Godoris words.
But,
Kukuk. Do you really think you can die as you please?
Croker scoffed at the hedgehogs words.
Croker had no intention of killing the hedgehogs.
Instead, he planned to use his power to make the hedgehogs his subordinates and force them to fight against dragons.
Could there be anything more crushing to the dragons proud pride than their own subordinates attacking them?
Kukuk. You are now my subordinates.
As Croker was about to release the red mist from his hand,
Hey! Get your hands off my guys!
Sejun shouted at Croker from atop Toryongs head.
And then,
Swish!
Cuengi, are you ready, meow?!
As Theo asked while drawing out his dragon claws,
Kueng!
[Ready!]
Cuengi energetically nodded.
Then, lets go, meow! Meow-meow! Meow-meow
Kueng-fooo!
Theo and Cuengi combined their powers to unleash the Meow-meow Fist and Kueng-fooo, creating the combined attack, Meow-Kueng-Storm Fist.
Kwaagwang!
An enormous whirlwind filled with magic blades that seemed to cut through anything engulfed the Caiman Kingdom army.
But,
How trivial.
Croker stepped forward and nonchalantly blocked the combined attack with his right hand enveloped in the red mist.
No, more accurately, the red mist devoured it. The attack was absorbed by the red mist.
Huh?!
Meow?!
Kueng?!
Sejun, Theo, and Cuengi were taken aback, having never experienced such a thing before.
Dont worry, everyone! Ill handle this! Hyung, release the seal!
Ajax, feeling smug, spoke up. Heheh. Its my turn to step in.
Alright. I, Park Sejun, release the seal on Ajax Mamebes
Just as Sejun began to release Ajaxs seal,
What is this?!
Fenrir poked his head out of Sejuns pocket, feeling a familiar energy suddenly.
And then,
Kking?!
Why does that bastard have my core?!
Fenrir was startled upon seeing Croker. Though the energy was weak, it was definitely his core that he felt inside Crokers body.
In the meantime,
Seal release.
Leave it to me, hyung!
Kwoooooo!
With the seal released, Ajax confidently fired his breath at Croker.
However,
Kuh
Croker, though struggling, managed to block Ajaxs breath.
Then,
Kking!
Core, come to me!
Fenrir, on the verge of fainting from Ajaxs energy, hurriedly called out to its core. Thanks to Theos energy drain, it was fainting rather than dying.
Zook.
Thus, a small black orb flew out of Crokers body towards Fenrir, heeding its masters call.
But,
Grab.
Meow?! What is this, meow?!
Theo, defending around Sejun with an iron wall, caught the orb with his front paw.
And then,
Puhuhut. I dont know what it is, but Im taking it, meow!
He put it into his bag.
While Theo was taking the piece of Fenrirs core,
Kwaagwang!
[Guard Ajax Mamebe has killed the King of Caiman Kingdom, Croker Caiman.]
[You have obtained 2.5 million experience points, which is 50% of the experience Guard Ajax Mamebe earned.]
[Ajax Mamebe is your slave.]
[You gain an additional 1.25 million experience points, which is 25% of the experience Ajax Mamebe earned.]
With the core gone and unable to withstand the breath attack anymore, Croker was completely obliterated by Ajaxs breath without a trace.
