Chapter 290: For Dad's Longevity and Health, I'll Come Again Next Time!
TL: Hanguk
In front of the Black Tower in Hannam-dong, where Sejuns family lives.
Kimchi?!
Weve confirmed 500 containers, each adjusted to 1kg!
Side dishes?!
Weve prepared 10 types of side dishes that Sejun~nim usually enjoys, such as stir-fried anchovies, sausage and vegetable stir-fry, and soy sauce-marinated eggs, each weighing 1kg, for a total of 500 containers!
Good. Lastly, the recipes?!
Weve recorded all of Kim Mi-ran~nims kimchi, kimchi stew, and side dish recipes!
The employees of the Korean Awakeners Association answered Kim Dong-siks questions.
And then,
Master, were all set!
Kim Dong-sik made the final report to Han Tae-jun.
Great! Then lets move to the tower!
Yes!
Following Han Tae-juns command, 1,000 members of the Earth Defense Force entered the Black Tower, each carrying a container of kimchi and side dishes.
Lets go.
Yes!
Han Tae-jun and Kim Dong-sik, each holding a recipe book, were the last to enter the Black Tower.
***
On the 75th floor of the tower.
Flap, flap.
Piyo!
[Please line up properly!]
Piyot, busily flying around, shouted at the approximately 300 people queued up to buy invitations.
The price of one party invitation was 1 billion Tower Coins, and those in line were mostly powerhouses, influential figures, or wealthy individuals, but
I am Theo~nims next right front paw! Im not scared!
Piyot controlled them without being intimidated.
Hehe. Ill work hard and earn Theo~nims recognition!
With the thought of receiving praise from Theo, Piyot diligently surveyed the surroundings.
Those in line also did not want to cause a commotion and fall out of favor with Theo, so they voluntarily followed Piyots control.Visjt novelbin(.)com for new updates
However,
Not everyone was like that.
Snap.
Hey. Long time no see.
A hyena beastman casually put his arm around the shoulder of the merchant in front.
Huh? Who
Before the clueless merchant could ask who it was,
Crack.
Ugh!
My dad is the boss of the 88th floor of the tower, Keruja How about we swap places?
Pressing down hard on the merchants shoulder with his strength and status,
Whoosh!
He naturally took the spot by pulling the other person behind. It was cutting in line.
And then,
Piyo! Piyo!
[No cutting in line! Please line up properly!]
Of course, Piyot, who was watching like a hawk, caught him immediately.
However,
What?! Why are you treating customers like this?!
Harzar, the son of the 88th-floor boss Keruja, objected to Piyots attitude despite having cut in line.
Usually, most would have bowed their heads and complied, but
Piyo! Piyo!
[Youre not the only customer here! Everyone else is a customer too, so please line up properly!]
Piyot was not a softie.
Eek! If it were the 88th floor, you wouldnt even be a mouthful!
Harzar, who had always lived as he pleased on the 88th floor relying on his fathers power, was very annoyed by the current situation.
Still, since this wasnt his territory on the 88th floor, Harzar was trying his best not to resort to violence.
Eek! How old are you?!
Piyo!
[Im old enough for my age!]
So how old are you?!
Piyo!
[Ive lived for 47 days!]
What?!
Your blood hasnt even dried on your back yet!!! (TL: Its a Korean saying; I dont know if its an idiom or not, which means someone is too inexperienced.)
Crack.
Losing his temper at Piyots response,
Crunch.
Harzar grew in size, transforming into his combat form.
Grrrr. Ill kill you!
Harzar, now 3 meters tall, opened his mouth wide to pounce on Piyot.
!
Frozen by the murderous attack, Piyot was about to be torn to shreds by Harzars sharp teeth when
Shield.
Bang!
A blue, opaque wall appeared in front of Piyot, blocking Harzars attack.
Grrr. Who is it?!
Harzar looked for the one who blocked him.
And then,
Kyoo-Kyoo, are you okay, Piyot?
Piyo! Piyo!
[Yes! Thank you!]
Harzars eyes caught sight of a pure white hamster talking to Piyot.
Although he had heard about Iona,
Who is that?
Harzar couldnt recall.
But
Its the second stage of rage!
Run away quickly!
Ah! But Theo~nim is here, isnt he?
Right! We need to tell Theo~nim quickly!
Kuehehehe. Kueng!
[Hehehe. Here it is!]
He said, looking at a huge red rock sitting alone in the middle of the wasteland.
Huh?
The golden bat tilted its head at Cuengis words.
Then,
Bang!
Cuengi threw a rock at the red rock with telekinesis,
Screech!
A bud, disguised as a rock, bloomed open, screaming in a way that disoriented its preys sense of balance.
And,
Wriggle. Wriggle.
Hundreds of tentacles inside the bud stirred in the air, trying to ensnare its prey.
Thinking the rock thrown by Cuengi was prey, it attempted to devour it.
At the same time, the name appeared above the monster.
[Red Rock Corpse Flower]
A monster capable of hiding its name through camouflage.
Kueng!
[Its coming up!]
Cuengi, having identified the target, levitated the body of the Red Rock Corpse Flower into the sky with telekinesis.
Then,
Rumble.
The ground vibrated, and the roots of the Red Rock Corpse Flower began to be pulled out.
Screech! Screech!
The Red Rock Corpse Flower, panicking and continuously screaming as its roots were pulled out.
Once its roots were completely extracted,
Crack.
Cuengi stretched his paws in the air, grabbing tightly,
Crunch.
And the juicing of the Red Rock Corpse Flowers roots began.
Kueng!
[Not a single drop should be wasted!]
(Yes!)
The golden bat diligently caught the juice of the Red Rock Corpse Flower in a glass bottle below.
After a while,
Thump.
The Red Rock Corpse Flower, squeezed by Cuengi, was planted back into the ground.
Kueng! Kueng!
[For Dads longevity and health, Ill come again next time! Golden bat, off we go!]
Cuengi said his farewells to the Red Rock Corpse Flower, promising to return next time, and flew towards the 99th floor.
Screech
The Red Rock Corpse Flower hurriedly fled elsewhere.

While Theo was turning Harzar into Piyots subordinate.
Gororong.
Kking
[Im hungry]
Fenrir, who had been sleeping on top of Theos bundle, woke up due to hunger.
Kking
[Theyre not around]
Fenrir looked around and, realizing that Theo and Piyot were nowhere to be seen,
Took a step to run away when
Gurrurr.
His stomach loudly grumbled.
Kking Kking
[Im so hungry Those evil bastards didnt even feed me]
It was quite a blow to the dignity of Fenrir, the god-devouring wolf and the first seat among the apostles of destruction.
Sniff sniff.
Kking
[Theres a delicious smell coming from over there]
Fenrir hurriedly followed the scent,
Thump! Thump!
But this place was too crowded for Fenrir to navigate.
Kking! Kking!
He was bumped and jostled by the feet of passersby dozens of times.
Kking
[Almost there]
Gulp.
Finally, following the scent, Fenrir saw an item in a merchants hand and swallowed his drool.
And
Kking!
[Ill eat it well!]
Bam.
He jumped towards the item held by the merchant.
However,
Bam. Bam.
No matter how much he jumped, his body wouldnt leave the ground.
Kking Kking
[Im too tired now Is it just not going to fall]
Exhausted, Fenrir lay down on the ground, hoping the merchants item would just drop when
Oh? Its a puppy?
The merchant lowered his posture, seeing Fenrir sprawled out beneath his feet, exposing his belly.
This is it! This is what it means to submit to me!
Fenrir pushed his belly out even more.
And
Shuk.
As the merchant sat down completely,
Suddenly.
Fenrir grabbed the item from the merchants hand in his mouth and dashed off.
