Chapter 317: I Might Lack Physical Strength, but Do I Lack Mental Strength?

TL: Hanguk

Plop.

Huh?

Sejun discovered Fenrir falling out of his pocket on its own.

Our Blackie has grown and can move well now?

Sejun did not try to catch Fenrir, just watched it.

No matter how hard it tried to run with its plodding steps, he couldnt get far, so he let him be.

Then,

Kking?

Fenrir suddenly disappeared into the ground not far ahead.

Blackie!

Sejun hurried to where Fenrir had vanished.

Plop.

Huh?!

The ground gave way, and Sejun also sank into the darkness.

And then

Chairman Park has fallen, meow!

Kueng!

[Dad disappeared!]

Sejun hyung! Ill save you!

(Sejun nim!)

Piyo!

[Sejun~nim, Im on it!]

The group waiting in the void storage rushed towards where Sejun had disappeared.

However, the ground that swallowed Sejun and Fenrir had already returned to normal.

Dig the ground, meow!

The group began to dig to find Sejun and Fenrir.

***

Rolling.

Thud.

Fenrir, having rolled down the inclined cave for a while, landed on his back.

A moment later.

Kking

Fenrir regained consciousness.

Where is this?

Fenrir looked around.

But,

Kking.

I cant see anything.

He could barely see in front of him; beyond that was pitch-black darkness.

As Fenrir was looking around,

Rolling.

Thud.

Sejun, like Fenrir, appeared next to him, having rolled down the cave.

Kking?!

You came too?!

Fenrir was so glad to see Sejun; he felt relieved.

And then,

Kkingcha. Kkingcha.

He climbed eagerly onto the unconscious Sejuns chest and,

Tap. Tap.

Kking!

Wake up!

He hit Sejuns face with its cute front paws to wake him up.

Then,

Creeping.

The darkness began to approach Sejun and Fenrir little by little.

Kking! Kking!

Dont come! Dont touch him!Nnêw n0vel chapters are published on n0v/e/(lb)i(n.)co/m

Fenrir barked loudly at the darkness, threatening it.

However,

Swoosh.

The darkness kept approaching,

Kking!

I said dont come closer!

Fenrir launched itself at the darkness.

Swoosh.

And then, Fenrir was swallowed by the darkness.

Swoosh.

So was Sejun.

***

-Whats happening?

Fenrir, swallowed by the darkness, looked around to understand the situation.

But there was no difference from before.

However, if there was one change

-Im in spirit form?

Fenrir was now in a spirit form. The darkness had separated Fenrirs spirit from its body.

Then,

Step. Step.

-I am the Night Walker, welcome to the world of the night.

A darker being emerged from the black darkness.

And then,

-Become part of the night.

As the Night Walker spoke, hundreds of thousands of hands emerged from the darkness to bind Fenrir.

-Hmph! Ridiculous!

I might lack physical strength, but do I lack mental strength?! If you consider only mental strength, Fenrir was at a level where he could stand toe-to-toe with gods even at ten to one.

Of course, Fenrir being the 1.

Boom.

With just a slight increase in mental strength, the hands of darkness couldnt even approach Fenrir.

However,

-Ugh! What is this?! Let go-!

It was different for Sejun. He was caught by ten hands of darkness and dragged into the darkness.

Sejun truly lacked both mental strength and physical strength, a true sunfish.

-

Before long, Sejun was swallowed by the darkness, his voice no longer audible.

[You have harvested 30 Night Sweet Potatoes.] [Night Sweet Potato] [You have achieved the great feat of restoring the night to the Black Tower.]

Kueng!

[Its scary!]

Piyo?!

[Why is the sky getting dark?!]

Theo, Cuengi, and Piyot, who had never seen a dark sky in the Black Tower, clung to Sejun in fear.

And then,

(Pip-pip! This is great!)

The golden bat, who liked the dark, was happy.

Ah. Its getting dark.

Lastly, Ajax disliked the arrival of the night.

Because the White Tower, unlike the Black Tower, had only night and no day.

Lets go back for now.

Sejun took his companions back to the 99th floor of the tower.

He wanted to enjoy the Black Towers first night at home.

***

Black Tower 99th Floor.

-Ah. Nice!

-Come on, fill up the glasses!

-Phrhrhrhr. Kellion, you seem to be in a really good mood?

-Of course. Thanks to Sejun these days, Ajax and I are getting along.

While the dragons were happily drinking Samyangju at the fountain,

-Huh?!

-Whats this?!

-Why is it getting dark?!

-Who dares?!

The dragons became displeased and looked up at the sky, thinking someone was looking down at them from above.

However,

There was no one in the sky. Instead, they could only see the darkened sky.

-Huh?! This is night!

Kaiser was moved as he watched the sky grow darker.

At that moment

-Grandfather, our Sejun did this!

Aileen informed Kaiser who had brought the night to the Black Tower.

-Hahahaha. As expected of our Sejun!

-Right. Who else but Sejun could do such a thing?

-Im jealous. Our tower should get some rain too

-Ramter, see if theres anything among Sejuns crops that could be helpful. Im thinking of planting the Detoxifying Green Onion in the Purple Tower with Sejuns permission.

While the dragons were conversing,

Boom.

Sejun appeared in the distance, riding on Toryong.

A moment later,

Heh. Praised again.

Hehehe. Sejun, having received immense affection from Kaiser, smiled smugly.

His arms were full of scales and claws, gifts from Kaiser for bringing back the night.

But,

Is this really okay?

Sejun, who didnt know exactly what he had done, yet everyone said he had restored the night.

Just enjoy it. Hehehe.

Sejun laughed and went to the yard in front of his house.

And then,

Crack. Crack.

He continued to enlarge the protective tree shield by infusing it with mana,

Vice Chairman Theo, cut it.

Puhuhut. Understood, meow!

He had Theo cut it.

Though it was made from the World Tree and was tough,

Swoosh. Swoosh.

It was easily cut by Theos dragon claws.

Cuengi and Ajax, stack the wood.

Kueng!

[Understood!]

Okay! Hyung!

He had them stack the wood Theo had cut.

Once the wood was piled high,

Snap.

Sejun snapped his fingers, creating a flame and lighting the wood on fire.

Hehehe. A campfire is perfect for a dark night.

Crackle. Crackle.

Listening to the sound of the wood burning, Sejun wrapped sweet potatoes and potatoes in foil and tossed them into the fire.

Making roasted sweet potatoes and potatoes.

Sejun put in two types of sweet potatoes: Golden sweet potatoes and the Night Sweet Potatoes harvested today.

While the roasted sweet potatoes and potatoes were cooking,

The fire blazed more fiercely, and conversely, the sky grew even darker.

And the companions sat around the campfire.

Kuehehehe. Kueng!

[Hehehe. It really tastes amazing when eaten like this!]

Really?! Eheh. Im looking forward to it.

Me too.

Ajax and Veronica swallowed their saliva as they listened to Cuengis explanation.

Piyo! Piyo!

[Pfft! This is how you make fire peanuts!]

Piyot skewered raw peanuts and roasted them over the fire.

Meoow. Nice, meow!

Theo, lounging lazily on Sejuns lap and basking in the warmth of the fire.

Kkirorong.

Fenrir, still sleeping in Sejuns pocket.

This is nice.

Sejun watched his companions contentedly, enjoying a peaceful time when,

[Night has fallen.]

[<Title: The One Who Restored the Night> is activated.]

[All stats increase by 20% during the night.]

Night had come to the Black Tower for the first time.
