TL: Hanguk
Black Tower’s Administrator Area.
“How dare you try to enter!”
As long as the great black dragon Aileen Pritani is guarding, you don’t stand a chance!
Aileen, who had disposed of the Apostle of Destruction fragments attempting to enter the tower, returned triumphantly.
At that moment,
[You have successfully blocked the Apostle of Destruction fragments trying to invade the Black Tower.]
[Successfully defended the Black Tower.]
[Gained 300 billion experience points as a reward for successful defense.]
[You have leveled up.]
[You have obtained 500 bonus stats.]
[All stats increased by 100.]
[Magic power increased by 13,000.]
[The power of darkness increases slightly.]
Along with the message of successful defense, Aileen leveled up.
The level-up effect was vastly different from Sejun’s.
When Sejun leveled up, all he got was one bonus stat and a 10-point increase in strength, but Aileen’s level-up was spectacular.
However,
“Kring… I got stronger again…”
Aileen, who had widened the gap with Sejun, was only depressed.
It was already as hard as catching stars from the sky to see Sejun, and now she had gotten stronger… Kring…
It seemed like it would now be difficult to even spend 5 seconds together.
While Aileen was feeling down,
[Sufficient power of darkness has been gathered.]
[All stats have surpassed 100,000.]
[Magic power has surpassed 300,000.]
[All conditions for awakening have been met.]
[Starting awakening.]
With the message, darkness swirled around Aileen.
“Kreeng?! No way!”
I can’t meet my Sejun now!
Aileen, shocked, resisted fiercely, but this was not something that could be stopped just because she didn’t want it.
Thus, Aileen was enveloped by darkness.
A moment later.
The swirling darkness calmed and permeated into Aileen’s shadow,
[You have acquired <Power: Holy Dragon’s Strength>.]
Aileen, the youngest in the history of the great dragon race at just 200 years old, successfully awakened.
However,
“Kring… it’s ruined…”
Now it’s even harder to see my Sejun…
I have to practice fire control again because my magic power got stronger…
Aileen was not happy at all.
“Fire.”
Aileen broke an Egg Fruit into a frying pan and started practicing fire control.
But,
“Ah.”
She failed to control the fire with her increased magic power,
Whoosh.
A huge fire engulfed the frying pan, turning the egg fruit into ashes.
“Grandpa!”
Aileen called Kaiser to deal with the egg fruit that had turned to ashes.
***
Green Tower, 93rd floor.
“7th seat of the Apostles of Destruction without a soul?”
Why do they all lack souls?
Sejun looked puzzledly at Krueger, the newly appeared Apostle of Destruction.
“Ah. That’s not important right now.”
There’s no time for this!
The fact that two Apostles of Destruction appeared through that passage meant more Apostles of Destruction could appear.
I need to close it quickly!
Sejun hurriedly ran to the passage and began planting the Destruction Devourer seeds around it.
However, due to the power of destruction emanating from Krueger, even though the Destruction Devourers were diligently absorbing the power of destruction, the passage remained.
“Cuengi, can you put this in the void storage?”
So Sejun asked Cuengi to put Krueger into the Void Storage.
Kueng!
[Got it!]
Kueeng!
Though Krueger’s body was heavy, gigantified Cuengi easily put Krueger’s body into the Void Storage.
“Cuengi, put Alice in too.”
Thinking about it, if he put the Apostles of Destruction in the void storage, he didn’t have to spend time in the Green Tower.
Kueng!
[Got it!]
Thud.
When Cuengi put Alice’s body into the Void Storage,
Stamp. Stamp. Stamp.
Puhuhut. It’s a complete gold mine, meow!
“Meow?!”
Ah. If we put them in storage like this, we can stamp them later, meow! As expected, Chairman Park is a genius, meow!
Theo, who had been making money by stamping Alice’s body, stopped what he was doing and clung to Sejun’s knee.
Meanwhile, Sejun was diligently planting the Destruction Devourers.
Gulp. Gulp.
The Destruction Devourers absorbed the energy of destruction vigorously, reducing the size of the passageway.
Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey.
“Oh my. Good job.”
In the middle of this, they even spat out seeds to Sejun.
As Sejun planted more Destruction Devourers with the seeds he received,
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. Guys, follow me!]
“Yes!”
Kkiruk!
Kiki!
Kiki!
Blackie appeared with Eomdol and Alice, leading the Destruction Devourers scattered around.
Kking!
[Guys, eat a lot!]
Blackie let the Destruction Devourers have their meal.
Kking!
[Alice, get down!]
How dare you try to kill the Great Blackie’s butler?!
Kkiruk…
Blackie started to scold Alice again.
But,
“Blackie, why are you bullying a weak friend! You should get along well together.”
Sejun, who found Blackie disciplining the small spider, scolded Blackie.
Kking! Kking!
[She’s bad! I’m good!]
Blackie was upset.
However,
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. Butler! Give her a name too!]
Blackie’s mood quickly improved in anticipation of the new name Sejun would give to Alice.
Kihit. Name her something weirder than mine!
It would be great if it was weirder than Eomdol.
Blackie and Eomdol, knowing Sejun’s terrible naming skills, looked at him with expectant eyes.
“Hmm… wait a moment…”
Thus, Sejun’s naming shop opened for business again.
Since she’s a spider the size of a thumbnail, Eommi.
Since she makes a sound like ‘Kkiruk’, Kkiruki.
Since she’s a black spider, add ‘G’ to ‘G’ and make it Ggeomi. (TL: Both the Korean word for ‘black’ and the Korean word for ‘spider’ start with ‘G’ when romanized. So, ‘Geomi’ means ‘spider,’ and an additional ‘G’ is added from the word for ‘black.’)
As expected, Sejun didn’t betray their expectations with his naming skills.
Ggeomi seems to be the best, right?
Just before Alice’s new name was almost confirmed as Ggeomi,
Ah! Since she’s a tiny spider, let’s call her Ggomi! (TL: Now the name Ggeomi is added with tiny/small’s ending part.)
“How about Ggomi?”
Suddenly inspired, Sejun came up with a not-so-bad name.
Kking?! Kking!
[What?! That’s cuter than mine!]
“It’s much better than mine…”
Blackie and Eomdol were greatly disappointed.
While Sejun was naming Alice, the Destruction Devourers, who had been eating the energy of destruction, reduced the passageway to a diameter of about 5 meters.
Then,
Rumble.
The walls of the passage, weakened by the absorbed energy of destruction, started collapsing in a chain reaction.
Sssr.
Eventually, the passage quietly closed.
And,
[You have achieved the great feat of destroying the passage connected to the outskirts of destruction created by the 9th Seat of the Apostles of Destruction, Alice the Mesmerizing Spider, in the Green Tower.]
[Due to the great achievement accomplished in the Green Tower, the reward is split equally with Ophelia Iorg, the tower farmer of the Green Tower.]
[Ophelia Iorg is your slave.]
[You gain an additional 50% of Ophelia Iorg’s share of the reward.]
[As a reward for achieving the great feat, you have obtained the Talent: Slightly Stronger Than You Look.]
He received a talent as a reward.
“Slightly Stronger Than You Look?”
What kind of talent is this?
Sejun quickly checked the talent.
[Talent: Slightly Stronger Than You Look]
→ A talent that allows you to appear slightly stronger than others perceive.
→ You can exert abilities at 110% of your possessed stats.
“Oh!”
With 110% of his stats, it effectively increases all his stats by about 300.
“Hehehe.”
I’m totally strong now.
While Sejun was delighted with his newly acquired talent,
[The Green Tower’s slave tells you in an excited voice that she has achieved a great feat thanks to you.]
Ophelia, having heard from Brachio that one of the growth conditions for the Green Tower was exceeded thanks to Sejun, spoke to him.
When the passage disappeared, the Destruction Devourers began to absorb the energy of destruction enveloping the 93rd floor of the tower, creating a gap that enabled communication with other floors.
“If you’re thankful, give 500 Tower Coins.” (TL: Original Joke is ???? 500? which is similar ‘If you’re thankful, give 500 won’)
When Sejun made an Earth-style joke
[The Green Tower’s slave is angry, asking if you’re mocking her.]
Thunk.
Ophelia, angry, sent a pouch of money in front of Sejun.
[The Green Tower’s slave tells you to open it.]
“Okay.”
When Sejun opened the money pouch, it contained 500 billion Tower Coins.
“Hehehe. I made money.”
As expected, dragons are generous.
Sejun praised the dragons while checking the money inside the pouch.
“Ophelia, clear the floor for me so I can come up to the 99th floor of the tower.”
[The Green Tower’s slave says she’s been keeping it clear since earlier, so go up whenever you need to.]
“Got it. Everyone, gather around!”
Sejun gathered his party and had them enter the Void Storage.
Kiki!
Kiki!
Half of the Destruction Devourers were left on the 93rd floor.
This was to complete the Land Deed quest and obtain mangosteen tree by removing all the energy of destruction spread throughout this place.
“Return.”
When Sejun activated the Dragon Horn’s Return Bracelet,
Woong
The golden letters engraved on the bracelet began to shine.
And then,
[The return magic engraved on the Dragon Horn’s Return Bracelet is activated.]
[Calculating the distance between the current coordinates and the return target coordinates.]
[Returning to the designated location.]
Sejun disappeared from the 93rd floor of the Green Tower.
A moment later.
[You have arrived on the 99th floor of the Green Tower.]
“So this is the 99th floor of the Green Tower.”
There are a lot of mugworts planted here.
Sejun said, looking around the blue and red mugwort fields where mugwort was planted in abundance.
Usually, Ophelia’s work style is to plant and harvest immediately, but today she had intentionally left the fields unharvested, knowing Sejun was coming.
Kueng!
[The waypoint is over there!]
Cuengi, who had flown up to locate the waypoint, informed Sejun of its direction.
Updatd fr𝑜m freewebnvel.com.
“Thanks.”
Sejun moved to where the waypoint of the 99th floor of the tower was.
Arriving at the waypoint on the 99th floor of the Green Tower, there was no one there as Agni, the boss of the 99th floor, was currently on the 1st floor roasting sweet potatoes.
Touch.
[The waypoint of the 99th floor of the Green Tower has been saved.]
Sejun placed his hand on the red crystal, registering the waypoint.
Then,
[Congratulations!]
[You have achieved the feat of clearing the Green Tower, following the Black Tower and the White Tower.]
[As an achievement reward, you have obtained the title: The One Who Reached the Summit of Three Towers.]
[As an effect of the title: The One Who Reached the Summit of Three Towers, the waypoints of the 99th floors of the three towers are connected.]
[As an effect of the title: The One Who Reached the Summit of Three Towers, the effect of the title: Retrogressor activates in the Green Tower as well.]
Messages appeared.
“Hehehe. Nice.”
Sejun smiled contentedly, having obtained the title: The One Who Reached the Summit of Three Towers, allowing him to freely move between the Black Tower, White Tower, and Green Tower.
[As you cleared the three towers, the effect of the title: Retrogressor is enhanced.]
[The increase in all stats for each floor descended is now 2.]
A message appeared indicating that the effect of the title: Retrogressor had been enhanced, but compared to Sejun’s current stats, it was now a very small amount.
“Time to go home. Ophelia, I’m leaving.”
Sejun said goodbye to Ophelia and brought up the waypoint list for the Black Tower, pressing the 99th floor.
Then,
[Moving to the 99th floor of the Black Tower.]
Sejun disappeared from the 99th floor of the Green Tower and reappeared on the 99th floor of the Black Tower.
Upon arriving at the 99th floor of the Black Tower,
The farm was bathed in blue moonlight.
“It’s the Blue Moon.”
It was the 15th Blue Moon Sejun had seen since entering the tower.
At that moment,
[Luna, the God of Moonlight, shows favor towards you.]
[Luna, the God of Moonlight, bestows upon you the blessing of the blue moon with the moonlight of the blue moon.]
A message appeared.
“Huh? Blessing of the Blue Moon?”
When Sejun checked his status window, the words ‘Blessing of the Blue Moon’ were written next to his name.
And then,
Click.
When he clicked on it,
[Blessing of the Blue Moon]
→ The moonlight of the Blue Moon protects you.
A single line was written.
“Protects me?”
Then…
“Ajax, summon.”
Sejun decided to go big and summoned Ajax.
A moment later,
“Sejun hyung! I missed you!”
Thud thud thud.
The summoned Ajax ran and hugged Sejun.
Oh! I’m fine!
There was no pain at all, even with the touch of the awakened Ajax.
Thank you, Luna~nim! I’ll build a monument for you later!
Sejun decided to create a monument for Luna.
Today’s the day!
“Ahhem. Aileen, do you want to see my face for a moment?”
With newfound courage, Sejun called out to Aileen.
