Chapter 283: Docking Success!

Chapter 283: Docking Success!

TL: Hanguk

Huh? Flamie, whats wrong?

Pop. Pop.

Using a leaf like a shovel to dig into the ground,

[Eyup!]

Sejun asked as he watched Flamie bury herself in a small hole.

[Hehe. Because the soil here is good.]

Flamie answered with an awkward laugh. It was because, contrary to expectations, her roots couldnt find her location, so she had to bury her body in the ground and call for her roots.

Hehehe. Is that so?

The soil is good? Is it because of the power I used? Sejun felt inexplicably happy at Flamies words.

Whooosh.

It might get cold, so Ill light a fire for you.

[Hehe, thank you.]

Sejun lit a fire next to Flamie, worrying it might be cold,

Guys, lets pick some Egg Fruits before dinner.

He called the animals.

Kueng! Kueng!

[Cuengi will lift Dad high! Hold onto Cuengi tight!]

As Cuengi said, enlarging his body to about Sejuns chest height and spreading his front legs to the side,

Whoosh.

Sejun tightly hugged Cuengi.

Kueng! Kueng~!

[Docking complete! Lets go~!]

Bang!

With Cuengis shout, Sejun and Cuengi shot up to the top of the Birds Bearing Tree at an incredible speed. Of course, the other animals hanging onto Sejuns body were also with them.

Once alone,

[Roots! Over here! Over here!]

Flamie started to call for her roots earnestly, spreading her leaves wide like filling up a WiFi signal to full bars.

And then,

[Whats your name?]

She asked the Birds Bearing Tree while waiting for her roots.

However,

-Sssrk!

The Birds Bearing Tree was a complete baby tree and didnt know how to speak.

-Sssrk! Sssrk!

Still, happy to meet Flamie, who could listen to its words, the tree chattered energetically,

[Is that so?]

Flamie listened as attentively as she could to the trees story.

***

On the outskirts of destruction.

Once Halphass recovery is complete, all of you will attack the nine towers guarded by dragons simultaneously.

Yes!

Yes!

The Apostles of Destruction from the 4th to the 12th seats answered in unison to the command of Fenrir, the 1st seat Apostle of Destruction.

The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd seats among the 12 Apostles of Destruction held a much higher rank, allowing them to command the other Apostles.

And in the meantime, Jrmungandr, create a fragment to burn my psyche and infiltrate the Black Tower.

Fenrir, why do you insist on infiltrating the tower with a complete psyche instead of a fragment?

The 3rd seat Apostle of Destruction, Jrmungandr, the world-devouring serpent, asked Fenrir with a puzzled expression.

Entering the tower with a complete psyche meant instant annihilation upon death.

It wasnt that they were worried about Fenrirs annihilation reducing their strength.

If Fenrir were to be annihilated, another Apostle of Destruction would be born to replace his position, so there was no loss in their power.

However, Jrmungandr didnt understand why Fenrir would take such a risk.

Its because I am a noble wolf.

Alright.

Jrmungandr gave up trying to understand and decided to comply with Fenrirs request.

Otherwise, he would nag until it was done.

***

Early morning on the 79th floor of the tower.

Uhaaaa.

Sejun stretched as he woke up on Cuengis belly,

Meowwww.

Kueeeng.

Piyiyo.

The animals stretched too.

Cuengi, tighten your belly!

Kueng!

[Strength!]

At Sejuns command, Cuengi tightened his belly!

Wobble.

Cuengis belly wobbled.

Alright!

Using the rebound, Sejun launched himself into the air,

Thud.Rêađ latest chapters on no/v/e/l(b)in(.)com

And landed on the ground.

Then,

Swoosh.

He went over to the extinguished fire from last night, rummaging through the still warm ashes to start gathering the Egg Fruits.

Yesterday, before Sejun went to bed, he had prepared them in advance so that cooking them at high temperatures would cause the Maillard reaction, turning the egg whites brown and creating Maillard eggs.

Kueng! Kueng!

[Its amazing! The Egg Fruit was colorless, but now it has color! Its like magic!]

Cuengi was amazed by the brown eggs.

Hehehe. Cuengi, try tasting it. The taste will be amazing too.

Sejun said with a smile. Maillard eggs have a different texture and taste compared to regular boiled eggs. The texture is more bouncy, and the taste is richer.

[Farmers Warm Touch Lv. 7 has been activated.]

[The growth of the Birds Bearing Tree speeds up slightly while being touched.]

[Your proficiency of Farmers Warm Touch Lv. 7 has increased slightly.]

Sejun, with Theo and Cuengi hanging, used the Farmers Warm Touch skill moving up and down the Birds Bearing Tree, aiding its growth.

It was three birds with one stone: helping the tree grow, increasing skill proficiency, and exercising.

Piyo!

In the meantime, Piyot harvested Egg Fruits and stored them in its bag, then

Piyo!

[Vice Chairman Theo, here are some Egg Fruits!]

Puhuhut, good job, meow!

Once the bag was full, it transferred the Egg Fruits to the bundle hanging on Sejuns waist, where Theo was.

Then,

Cuengi, increase the weight a bit.

As Sejun got used to climbing the tree, he spoke to Cuengi,

Kueng!

[Understood!]

Cuengi slightly reduced the effect of its talent for lightness.

Then,

Thud.

Cuengis body weight increased.

Good.

Sejun, with Cuengi now weighing 1000kg, climbed the tree again.

While Sejun was sweating, climbing, and treating the tree,

Rumble.

The ground vibrated, and the tree shook violently.

Whoa!

Sejun, unable to withstand the rebound of the shaking tree, was flung from it.

Boing. Boing.

Fortunately, Cuengis psychokinesis prevented a fall.

Kueng! Kueng!

[Dad, youre too weak! Work harder!]

However, he had to endure a tremendous nagging instead.

As Sejun climbed the tree again, listening to Cuengis scolding,

[Master, sorry. But still, docking was a success!]

Flamie, who caused the earthquake, apologized to Sejun while connecting its body and roots.

And then, it passed one of the nutrients it had given to Podori to the roots of the Birds Bearing Tree.

-Sssrk?

[Yes. You can eat it. Its tasty.]

-Sssrk!

Encouraged by Flamie, the tree eagerly absorbed the nutrient.

[Were you hungry? Eat more.]

-Sssrk!

Flamie took out another nutrient from her roots and offered it to the tree.

[If only Podori would eat like this too. Eat more.]

While Flamie was pleased to see the tree enjoying the nutrients,

[The Birds Bearing Tree has grown into a mature tree.]

[You have completed the quest.]

[As a reward for completing the quest, you are recognized as the rightful owner of the land deed.]

[Land Deeds Skill: Farm Information Lv. Max has been activated.]

A message appeared in front of Sejun, indicating the completion of the land deed quest.

Oh! The quest is finished! Good job, everyone!

Unaware that Flamie had shared her nutrients with the Birds Bearing Tree, Sejun naturally thought the achievement was due to his and the animals efforts.

And then,

Farm info

As Sejun was about to use the land deed skill to check the farm information,

Rumble.

The ground shook once again.

Ugh!

This time, Sejun clung tightly to the tree, avoiding being flung off and spared from Cuengis nagging.

Whats happening? Is the ground here unstable?

Sejun grew anxious with the continuous earthquakes.

However, the cause of the earthquake was again Flamies roots.

Flamie quickly withdrew its roots from the farm to avoid revealing its identity when Sejun was about to use the farm information skill.

Then,

Swish.

The buds of the tree that had grown into a mature tree started to open, and flowers began to bloom.

And then,

Chirp! Chirp!

Kyaoh!

Coo!

Dozens of birds, big and small, were born from the flowers, announcing their birth with vigorous cries.

Wow.

Sejun was in awe of the beautiful flowers and the birds being born from them when,

Piyo! Piyo!

[Welcome, comrades! I am your senior, Pirururur Yotra!]

Piyot stepped forward to discipline its juniors.

However,

Whoosh.

A few birds, with a challenging look of Youre the senior? in their eyes, created flames on their bodies as they looked at Piyot.

Thanks to absorbing Flamies nutrients, strong birds with the ability to use fire were born.

Theyre pretty strong?

Piyot quietly climbed onto Sejuns foot and looked desperately at Theo. Vice Chairman Theo, please discipline them!
