TL: Hanguk
99th floor of the Black Tower.
[You have planted a Destruction Devourer Seed in the body of Delia, the Demon of Corruption and 8th Seat Apostle of Destruction.]
…
..
.
As usual, Sejun began his morning routine by planting Destruction Devourer Seeds in Delia’s body in the Void Storage.
“Alright. All done.”
As soon as Sejun finished planting the Destruction Devourer Seeds, he immediately harvested the crops planted in Delia’s body.
[You’re a Field Lv. 9 has been activated, dealing additional damage.]
[You’re a Field Lv. 9 has activated, harvesting the stats of Delia, the Demon of Corruption and 8th Seat Apostle of Destruction.]
[Strength increases by 40, Stamina by 40, Agility by 25, and Magic Power by 45.]
The first harvest triggered a stat harvest.
“Oh! What a good start.”
Feeling good, Sejun worked harder than usual on harvesting the crops, managing to trigger the stat harvest three more times over the next three hours.
“Alright. Just one more to make it five times.”
With renewed motivation, Sejun continued to harvest crops when,
Flap, flap.
Anton’s Black Dragon Statue quietly flew in.
And then,
-Brother-in-law, come out. Over.
Ace quietly attempted contact.
“Brother-in-law is out. Did my baby brother-in-law sleep well? Over.”
-Ace slept well. Over.
“What’s your plan for today? Over.”
-I’m going to eat and then sleep again. Over.
As a young dragon just over a month old, Ace had a very desirable lifestyle of eating and sleeping, eating and sleeping.
“What do you want for lunch today? Over.”
-Ace wants Yonggary Chicken. Over.
“Got it. Then lunch today will be Yonggary Chicken. Over.”
-Puhihihi. Brother-in-law, you’re the best! Over.
“Haha. I know. Brother-in-law, remember you’re lucky because I’ll be marrying your sister. Over.”
-…I think you’re right. On behalf of my family, I’m truly grateful for you for marrying my sister. Over.
Ace suddenly responded seriously to Sejun’s words.
“I’m going to tell your sister. Over.”
-Brother-in-law, no, you can’t do that! Puhing. I was wrong!
Clearly terrified of Aileen, Ace, forgetting to even say ‘over’, whimpered as he clung to Sejun’s leg.
“Baby brother-in-law, I’m joking. This will remain our little secret. Over.”
-Phew. Puhihihi. Thank you, brother-in-law. Over.
After reassuring Ace, Sejun went to the kitchen and started preparing Yonggary Chicken using slime meat.
As Sejun cooked,
Sniff, sniff.
Kihihit. Kking?!
[Hehe. Butler, is it time to eat?!]
Blackie, who was sleeping lazily in the sling bag, got excited after smelling the oil.
“Yeah. So wait quietly.”
Kking!
[Got it!]
“Yes!”
Kkiruk!
Sharlarang.
…
..
.
At Sejun’s command, the Blackie family quietly watched him cook.
A little while later,
“Here, baby brother-in-law. Take this and share it with your parents. Over.”
-Puhihihi. Brother-in-law, thank you as always. Over.
Sejun handed over a plate of Yonggary Chicken to Ace.
Some time after Ace left
Kueng! Kueng!
[Dad, Cuengi’s back! Here’s the medicinal herbs!]
Cuengi returned from the herb field, handing Sejun three Blue Kudzu Roots of Potential.
“Thanks. Sit down quickly. Let’s eat lunch.”
After patting Cuengi’s head, Sejun placed a plate of Yonggary Chicken in front of Cuengi and Blackie.
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. Food!]
Chomp, chomp, chomp.
The Blackie family devoured the Yonggary Chicken with excitement.
However,
Kueng?
[Dad, aren’t you eating?]
Cuengi didn’t immediately eat and asked Sejun. There was no food in front of Sejun.
“Eat first. Dad’s going to eat with Theo hyung when he comes.”
Sejun planned to wait and eat with Theo later so that Theo wouldn’t have to eat alone.
Kueng!
[Then Cuengi will eat just one piece of Yonggary Chicken and wait with Dad!]
Hearing Sejun’s words, Cuengi stabbed one piece of Yonggary Chicken with a fork, put it in his mouth, and set the fork down.
Kking!
[Then me too!]
Blackie also tried to wait for Theo, but,
Huh?! When did I eat everything?!
Blackie’s food bowl was already sparkling clean.
He had finished it all in the meantime.
Kkirorong.
Eomrorong.
Kkiruruk.
…
..
.
2a09:bac5:47ed:b05::119:9
Having eaten their fill, the Blackie family dozed off while waiting for Theo, and,
Growl.
Cuengi’s stomach kept sending signals asking for food.
Kueng.
[Cuengi will eat just one more piece.]
Unable to endure his hunger, Cuengi picked up another piece of Yonggary Chicken and ate it.
“Why isn’t he coming?”
Theo’s return was later than usual.
I hope nothing happened?
Though a bit worried, Sejun reassured himself. Theo wasn’t the type of cat to get beaten up, if anything, he’d be the one doing the beating.
Should I just go check what Theo’s up to?
Since he had a Land Deed for the 34th floor of the Brown Tower, Sejun thought about going to find Theo himself.
He wasn’t worried about missing Theo since Theo would find him no matter how far apart they were.
“Cuengi, just eat that for now.”
Kueng?
“We need energy if we’re going to look for Theo hyung.”
Sejun gave Cuengi an excuse so he could eat comfortably.
Kueng!
[Got it!]
Still hungry, Cuengi took Sejun’s words to heart, skewering multiple pieces of Yonggary Chicken onto his fork at once and quickly devouring them to fill his empty stomach.
After Cuengi had finished eating all the Yonggary Chicken, Sejun said
“Everyone, go inside.”
Sejun sent Cuengi and the Blackie family into the Void Storage.
Rustle.
He unfolded the Land Deed and teleported to the 34th floor of the Brown Tower.
***
34th Floor of the Brown Tower
“Puhuhut. Ganess, now lead me to the treasure vault, meow!”
“Yes! It’s over here!”
Ganess, the leader of the Brown Outlaws, who had recently become a full-time employee of Sejun Company after receiving Theo’s stamp, personally guided Theo to the treasure vault.
However,
Empty.
Inside the treasure vault were just a few rusty swords scattered around.
“Are you kidding me, meow? Why isn’t there any treasure in the treasure vault, meow?!”
I can’t go back to Chairman Park like this, meow!
Theo, who had boasted to Sejun about bringing back a lot of money, scowled heavily as he addressed Ganess.
“Well… recently, we had to make a tribute… If you give me a little time, I’ll do my best to refill the vault!”
Ganess hurriedly explained.
“No time, meow! Who did you pay tribute to, meow?!”
“To a group called the Brown Demon Gang in the north.”
“Lead me there, meow!”
“Yes! Let’s go!”
At Theo’s command, Ganess eagerly led Theo to the Brown Demon Gang’s hideout, sounding quite excited.
The Brown Demon Gang was a group so strong that even the boss of the 34th floor of the tower worked under them. Below the 40th floor, they were unmatched.
However, even a group like the Brown Demon Gang couldn’t defeat someone like Theo, who had just subdued over 300 men in an instant.
Brown Demon Gang, just wait. The Yellow Demon is coming!
Unlike his usual demeanor when visiting the Brown Demon Gang’s hideout, Ganess moved northward with a bright expression and quick steps.
A short while later,
Whack!
“Kugh!”
As Ganess had anticipated, Theo swiftly knocked out the Brown Demon Gang’s boss, Rugal, and all his subordinates.
Stamp. Stamp.
He placed his stamp on them one by one.
After Theo finished stamping
“Puhuhut. Quickly wake up and lead me to the treasure vault, meow!”
Slap. Slap.
Theo grabbed the unconscious Rugal by the collar and slapped his face.
As expected of the Yellow Demon.
“Theo-nim, I know where the treasure vault is.”
Ganess, eager to score points with Theo, spoke up. Since he had always delivered tributes to the treasure vault, he knew where it was located.
“Puhuhut. Good, meow! Lead me there right away, meow!”
“Yes!”
Thus, they arrived at the treasure vault of the Brown Demon Gang. This time, it truly lived up to its name, filled to the brim with treasures.
“Puhuhut. This is great, meow!”
While Theo was enthusiastically stuffing treasures into his bag,
“Meow?!”
I sense great hybrid Chairman Park’s knee energy nearby meow!
Theo’s Sejun knee detector detected Sejun.
“Puhuhut.”
Chairman Park must have come looking for me, meow!
Swoosh.
Overjoyed, Theo used Light Speed Meow-Step to move to where Sejun was.
“Theo-nim, if you go that way there’s a small treasure vault… huh?!”
Where did he go?!
Ganess, who was left alone, panicked. If Rugal’s subordinates woke up now that Theo had disappeared, Ganess knew he’d be a dead man.
Yellow Demon! Come back!
Ganess desperately searched for Theo.
***
Sejun arrived at the Brown Tower.
Where could Theo be?
As Sejun focused on trying to locate Theo,
…?
Suddenly, something soft and fluffy covered his face, plunging his vision into darkness.
At the same time, he felt a familiar scent and softness.
And then,
“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, did you come because you missed me, meow?!”
A familiar voice.
It was Theo.
Grab.
“…Meow.”
Sejun grabbed Theo by the scruff of his neck and pulled him away from his face.
“Miss you? I came looking because I thought you were eating something delicious by yourself.”
He grumbled out of habit, feeling a little embarrassed to admit that he had come because he was waiting to have lunch together.
“I didn’t eat anything delicious by myself, meow! I, Vice Chairman Theo, believe Chairman Park’s grilled fish and churu are the most delicious in the world, meow!”
Theo passionately defended himself against Sejun’s accusation.
“Hehehe. Alright, alright.”
Feeling better after Theo’s words, Sejun patted Theo’s head and looked around.
What kind of farm is this?
He scanned the area. It was nothing but barren wasteland.
At that moment,
Clank.
Kueng!
Kking!
Cuengi and the Blackie family came running out of the Void Storage and clung to Sejun.
And just like that, the Sejun family was complete.
[Quest: Restore the land’s fertility, normalize the farm, and plant 10,000 tangerine seeds on the farm.]
Reward: Recognition as the rightful owner of the Brown Tower 34th Floor Tangerine Farm
At the same time, a Land Deed quest message appeared before Sejun.
“Tangerines?”
If it’s tangerine seeds, they should be in the Void Storage.
Well, technically, they weren’t seeds but tangerines themselves. But since tangerines have seeds inside, it’s the same thing.
Alright, let’s start by restoring the land’s fertility.
“Abundance!”
“Abundance!”
Sejun activated his Power twice in succession to enhance the land’s fertility.
With his Stamina stat greatly increased compared to before, and thanks to the Sunfish Core, his vitality had also risen significantly. He could now use his Power without relying on Mugwort Juice Potions, and it wasn’t a big burden anymore.
Meanwhile,
Kkuhehehe.
Spit. Spit.
Following Sejun’s instructions, Cuengi happily peeled tangerines, ate them, and spit out the seeds.
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. Cuengi hyung, us too!]
Spit. Spit.
The Blackie family also ate the tangerines that Cuengi had peeled for them and spit out the seeds.
After a short while,
“Puhuhut. So I smacked the back of those Brown Demon Gang bastards’ heads and stamped them…”
[10,000 tangerine seeds have been planted.]
[Quest completed.]
…
..
.
While listening to what Theo had been doing here and working, the land deed quest was completed before he knew it.
“Good. Then let’s go get the treasures now.”
“Puhuhut. Sounds good, meow!”
Kkuhehehe. Kueng?!
[Hehehe. Are we going treasure hunting again?!]
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. Great Blackie will find everything!]
Whether they misunderstood what Sejun and Theo were saying, Cuengi and Blackie seemed to think they were on an actual treasure hunt and were brimming with excitement.
Well, in a broader sense it wasn’t entirely wrong.
Thus, Sejun and his group headed toward the Brown Demon Gang’s hideout.
At that moment,
“Catch him!”
A group of people came running swiftly toward where Sejun was.
“Please save me!”
“Ganess, if we catch you, you’re done for!”
“How dare you betray our Brown Demon Gang?!”
It was Ganess, being chased by the Brown Demon Gang.
After Theo had disappeared from the treasure vault, Ganess had thought
Well, since it’s come to this, might as well grab some treasure and retire.
Grabbing a few treasures to use as retirement funds, Ganess had tried to sneak out of the Brown Demon Gang’s hideout.
But,
“Ganess, what are you doing here?”
He had been caught by Brown Demon Gang members returning from outside. Now, he was on the run.
“Puhuhut. Don’t harass an employee of Sejun Company, meow!”
Theo instantly sped past the fleeing Ganess in an instant.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
Theo knocked out the Brown Demon Gang members chasing Ganess in no time.
Press. Press.
He stamped them all, converting them into five-year contract employees of Sejun Company. Since they had targeted Ganess, a full-time employee, their contract term was shorter.
[Due to the effects of your <Title: Slave King>, all stats have increased by 0.5.]
Hehehe. Now we won’t be short on staff for the tangerine farm.
As Sejun felt satisfied watching his growing workforce,
Crunch.
The Black Moon, opened once again.
