Chapter 292: Your Name is Now Blackie
TL: HangukAall newest chapters on n.o./velbi/n/(.)com
Purple Tower, 53rd Floor.
I found it. I must call Flamie~nim quickly.
Veronica, who found the farm on the 53rd floor of the tower under the instructions of Flamie.
Thud.
As soon as she planted a piece of root given by Flamie into the ground, the root began to send signals to Flamies roots.
Meanwhile,
Swoosh!
Veronica began dealing with the surrounding purple lizards.
I have to do well even in such tasks to receive praise.
Veronica, the Tower Farmer of the Purple Tower, who always gets scolded by Flamie for not being able to farm properly.
Wanting to hear words of appreciation from Flamie, she wielded her dual daggers diligently and started slicing through the lizards.
While Veronica was busily clearing the area,
Bang! Bang!
A giant lizard appeared.
Ugh! What is that?!
Veronica was startled by the sight of the lizards mouth.
Wriggle. Wriggle.
This was because hundreds of tentacles connected to the lizards tongue were squirming around its mouth.
Aargh! Die! Crescent Moon Beheading!
Unable to bear the disgust, Veronica swung her daggers in an X shape,
Slish. Slish.
Two crescent moon-shaped energies from her daggers quartered the giant lizards body.
Thump.
The giant lizard fell.
Phew
Veronica felt relieved as the creature that gave her goosebumps died.
Then,
-How dare someone kill my host?
Wriggle. Wriggle.
Tentacles emerged from the body of the giant lizard, forming a shape.
It was a fragment of the Apostle of Destruction, the sea-devouring monster, Kraken, occupying the sixth seat.
However,
What the hell?! What was inside it?! Moonlight Soul Cleaver!
Veronica, who had never encountered a fragment of the Apostle of Destruction before,
Thought of it as a parasitic creature inside the lizard and quickly swung her dual daggers.
Swoosh. Swoosh.
The released sword energies overlapped, creating a full moon-shaped energy with a saw-like edge that flew towards the Kraken fragment.
However,
-Chuckle. An interesting technique.
Keeng.
The Kraken fragment easily destroyed Veronicas attack with just one of its tentacles.
How could?
As Veronica was baffled by the overwhelming power of her opponent,
Swoosh.
A tentacle from the Kraken fragment swiftly flew towards her, attempting to capture her.
Then,
Rumble.
The ground vibrated, and
Thud.
A giant root burst out of the ground, piercing through the body of the Kraken fragment.
And then,
[Fire, blaze up!]
Following Flamies words,
-Arggh To die like this
The Kraken fragment burned away and disappeared.
Clang.
Leaving behind dozens of coins with tentacles drawn on them.
Pick. Pick.
[Hehe. Should I say someone gave these to me on the way to the master?]
As Flamie was excitedly picking up the coins and thinking of ways to give them to Sejun,
Thank you, Flamie~nim, for saving me.
Veronica expressed her gratitude to Flamie for saving her life.
[Oh my. If it were our master, he wouldnt have even struggled with something like this]
Flamie was about to say something to Veronica but swallowed her words.
Thinking about it, if Sejun were here, he would have been dead long ago.
Im sorry.
Flamie~nims master must be good at farming and strong. I admire him.
Thanks to this, Veronica overestimated Sejuns abilities.
[Is this the farm?]
Yes.
[Good. Lets start working.]
Rumble.
Flamie moved the roots to create a boundary for the farm and
[Yip!]
Began purifying the farm with the power of purification.
***
Nom. Nom. Nom.
Haah. It doesnt smell bad now, does it?
Puhuhut. You passed, meow! You dont smell like shit anymore, meow!
Sejun passed Theos breath test after eating dozens of vitality-infused fragrant grapes.
And then,
Vice Chairman Theo, but where did you find this one?
Finally able to speak, Sejun asked Theo about something he was curious about, regarding Fenrir.
Kking! Kking!
Im hungry! Give me food!
Piyo!
[Stay still!]
Fenrir had tried to escape as soon as he woke up earlier, so Piyot was holding the leash tightly.
Puhuhut. You mean, Whiny? I, Vice Chairman Theo, rescued it from the belly of an Apostle of Destruction, meow! So, in return for saving it, it agreed to become my subordinate, meow!
Theo answered Sejun from a very self-centered perspective.
Really? Is its name Whiny?
Sejun looked at Fenrir.
[Eating gives me strength!]
After filling its belly,
Kking!
[I should eat this when Im hungry again!]
Sssrk.
Dragging a sweet potato almost as big as itself, Fenrir continued to run away diligently.
When Fenrir had run away from the houses front yard for a while,
Flap. Flap.
-Who are you?
Kaiser approached upon discovering Fenrir.
Kking?!
[This is the energy of Kaiser?!]
Fenrir froze with Kaisers approach. Being discovered as Fenrir meant certain death.
Then,
Flap. Flap.
-Kaiser, whats going on?
-Whats with this dog? Did Sejun bring it to guard the house?
Kellion and Ramter also flew over to look at Fenrir.
Kking?
[Why are Kellion and Ramter here?]
Fenrir was puzzled to see the dragons.
The leaders of the dragon tribe usually guarded their own towers and didnt roam together like this.
Moreover, they usually didnt allow other dragon tribes into their towers.
-Dont know. Maybe Theo brought it.
-Theo did?
-But doesnt it emit a familiar energy?
-Hmm Now that you mention it I faintly feel the power of destruction.
-Could this be a fragment of Fenrir?
Among the 12 Apostles of Destruction, Fenrir had the closest appearance.
While the dragons were contemplating Fenrir,
Blackie!
Sejuns voice calling for Fenrir was heard.
Having woken up to find Fenrir missing,
You dare to roam around without fear, you sunfish?!
He hurriedly came out to look for it.
As Sejun approached Blackie with Theo hanging on his leg,
-Sejun, step back. I feel the energy of an Apostle of Destruction from this creature!
-Right! Step back!
-Sejun, stay away!
The dragons were trying to protect Sejun by preventing him from approaching Fenrir.
Wait please. Theo said he rescued it from the belly of an Apostle of Destruction. Maybe because its weak it got imbued with the energy of the Apostle of Destruction?
Sejun quickly explained his thoughts, fearing the dragons might kill Fenrir.
-If its a baby, then
-Is that so?
-It seems possible.
Fortunately, the dragons found Sejuns explanation more plausible.
The being in front of them was too weak to be called a fragment of Fenrir.
Fenrir, always proud to be a noble wolf, wouldnt create such an insignificant fragment.
Moreover,
Meow
Theo, even while sleeping, kept absorbing the weak energy of destruction emitted by Fenrir, which seemed likely to disappear soon.
-Well it doesnt seem to pose a danger to Sejun.
Thanks to this, Fenrir narrowly escaped death, deemed too insignificant by the dragons to harm the equally insignificant Sejun.
As the dragons suspicions faded,
Here, try this. These are freshly harvested grapes, and they are delicious.
Sejun offered the dragons vitality-infused fragrant grapes.
Meanwhile,
Thud. Thud.
As the dragons attention shifted to the grapes, Fenrir continued to run away diligently.
Kking?! Kking!
Oh?! Wait, this place is too strange!
Realizing something was off about this place, Fenrir stopped in its tracks.
Its goal was to obtain the black, round, oval fruit that Kaiser had eaten.
There was no place as suspicious as this one, guarded by Kaiser and other dragon leaders.
Kking! Kking!
Heheh. I am indeed a genius! Ive infiltrated the enemies secret base without even realizing it!
Thud. Thud.
Praising itself, Fenrir returned and sat next to Sejuns leg, looking up at him.
It absolutely, absolutely wasnt because it wanted more roasted sweet potato.
However,
Drip. Drip.
Contrary to Fenrirs thoughts, drool was overflowing from its mouth.
Then,
Whizz!
[Sejun~nim~!]
The Poisonous Honeybee Queen, having finished her royal jelly making practice, called Sejun with black royal jelly in hand.
And then,
Kking!
Thats it!
Seeing the black royal jelly, Fenrir scratched Sejuns leg with its front paws,
Kking! Kking!
[Give me that! Hand it over!]
Fenrir demanded the black royal jelly. It was black and round. It was definitely what it had been looking for.
Blackie, you want this? Hehehe. Then you must eat it.
Sejun, who was having trouble with the black royal jelly, grinned and happily placed the black royal jelly into Blackies mouth.
And then,
Kkiiing?!
[This is what Kaiser ate?!]
Fenrir fainted from the bitterness of the black royal jelly.
