Chapter 324: Heh, I Have My Ways
TL: Hanguk
[The Towers Administrator is furious, asking who would put such an effect on grapes.]
[Aileen~nim, I apologize! I will be careful next time!]
While Podori was being scolded by Aileen,
Hehehe. Delicious.
Kuehehehe. Kueng!
[Hehehe. Theyre really sweet!]
Uhihi! This is really tasty!
Sejun, Cuengi, and Ajax were enjoying the golden grapes created by Podori, eating 6 each fairly.
Why six each, you might ask?
-Hahaha! Podori, youve done well.
-Try eating one of these grapes with alcohol. Its killer!
-Oh! Youre right!
-Wow! If we ferment alcohol with this
They had given 3 grapes each to the four dragons who came to see Podori.
While they were happily eating the golden grapes,
Tier-nim, do you want to buy this?
Sejun showed Tier the Poison Detoxifying Japanese Pumpkin.
-A Poison Detoxifying Japanese Pumpkin?! Ill buy it!
Tier said he would buy it without a second of hesitation, just by hearing its name. Anything sold by Sejun is a must-buy!
Please try it first and then decide on the price.
-Alright.
Snap.
Tier swallowed the Japanese pumpkin offered by Sejun whole.
***
Purple Tower Administrator Area.
Well since its from Sejun, its effectiveness is guaranteed.
Chomp. Chomp.
Tier ate the whole Japanese pumpkin Sejun gave him.
Although it didnt taste great raw, he was excited to see what effect it would have this time.
Then,
[You have consumed a Poison Detoxifying Japanese Pumpkin.]
[It will expel Heart Poison.]
Ugh!
With the message, he felt a severe pain in his heart,
Gag!
And Tier vomited a red orb.
Then,
Oh! The size of the Heart Poison has halved!
Tier was delighted to see the size of the Heart Poison residing in his heart had reduced.
The red orb he just spat out was part of the nasty Heart Poison that had been attached to his heart.
It was possible to reduce the size of Heart Poison to a certain extent with Detoxifying Green Onions, but not to remove it completely.
If I reduce the size of Heart Poison with Detoxifying Green Onions and then eat this pumpkin
It was possible to completely cure the Heart Poison.
I guess Ill have to pay more than 1 billion Tower Coins each for these pumpkins?
If it could remove Heart Poison, money was no object.
Then, I should start gathering money.
Tier hurriedly called the purple dragons to earn money.
The purple dragons went out of the tower to extinguish the red mist far away, earning Tower Coins.
In the past, there was a lot of red mist just a little way out of the tower, but these days, the competition was fierce.
And naturally, the competition was only among the black, white, red, and purple dragons.

[Master Sejun likes these grapes! Ill give you more nutritional supplements, so make more grapes!]
Flamie, seeing Sejun enjoying the golden grapes, handed a ton of nutritional supplements to Podori.
[What?! More Nutritional supplements?!]
Podori was shocked to see about 100 nutritional supplements.
Podori thought she wouldnt need to eat these nutritional supplements anymore once she became the World Tree but the number had significantly increased instead.
But Podori was too scared of Flamie to rebel.Nnêw n0vel chapters are published on n0v/e/(lb)i(n.)co/m
[Yes]
Since Im making them, I should make delicious grapes for Sejun-nim.
While Podori was absorbing the nutritional supplements,
[You have achieved the feat of removing Heart Poison with a Poison Detoxifying Japanese Pumpkin.]
[As a reward for achieving the feat, the growth speed of Poison Detoxifying Japanese Pumpkin increases by 10 times for a week.]
An achievement message appeared in front of Sejun. The pumpkin had the desired effect.
But to increase the growth speed by 10 times?!
This isnt the time to just sit around!
Bouncing up.
Sejun hurriedly ran to the farm.
And,
Slice. Slice.
He quickly cut the top off the pumpkin to scrape out the seeds and,
Boom.
Land Moving.
He planted all the pumpkin seeds at once with Mylers hoe.
[You have planted 25,000 seeds of Poison Detoxifying Japanese Pumpkin in the magic-infused soil.]
[Your job experience points have slightly increased.]
[Your proficiency of Magic Seed Sowing Lv. 8 has slightly increased.]
[You have created a pumpkin field of 330,000 square meters.]
[You have gained 200,000 experience points.]
[You cannot accumulate experience points as the job quest is not completed.]
Messages appeared.
Hehehe. Now I just have to wait a week
And nearly a million pumpkins could be harvested.
Sejun looked at the field where the pumpkins were planted with a satisfied expression when
[The size of your owned farm has exceeded 33 million square meters.] [Talent: Large Landlord] [You have designated it as the 1022nd tenant farmer.] [You have obtained Sundried Red Pepper seeds.] [You have created a carrot field of 33,000 square meters.]
Theo was already thinking about how to use the invisibility cloak he would receive.
Thus, the invisibility cloak became Theos.
Then, lets go, meow!
As Theo spoke, standing on Urens shoulder,
Yes!
Uren moved.
Puhuhut. This is fascinating, meow!
Piyo! Piyo!
[Piyihihi! Theo-nim, this is fun!]
Theo and Piyot were amazed that the beings outside couldnt see them while inside the cloak of invisibility.
Uren, what do we do now, meow?
We just wait.
Meow?!
We have to stake out until decisive evidence appears and then raid in on the scene!
Remembering past events seemed to raise Urens voice.
So have you raided any scene, meow?
No, there was another passage.
Uren, who had diligently accumulated know-how but had never actually caught any evidence.
Puhuhut. Thats not how you monitor, meow!
Hop.
Theo jumped down from Urens shoulder and
Bill, Im here, meow!
shouted loudly in front of the building.
Then, Bill and other cats came rushing out from inside the building,
Vice Chairman Theo, welcome!
They greeted Theo respectfully. The other cats were newly hired interns.
Puhuhut. Bill, are you doing well, meow?!
Yes! Thanks to Chairman Park and Vice Chairman Theo!
Bill sincerely expressed his gratitude in response to Theos question. The eyes of the intern cats were no different.
They knew that thanks to Sejun and Theo, they had overcome their food shortage.
Furthermore, as the number of cats working at Sejuns Company increased, the village became wealthier, naturally leading to its growth.
Recently, Granier Village had been promoted to a city.
For those cats, working at Sejuns Company was an honor, and they naturally worked hard.
Puhuhut. Their loyalty to Chairman Park is high, meow!
Theo noticed the cats earnest gazes.
Puhuhut. Bill, were having a company dinner today, meow!
He decided to treat the employees to a company dinner.
Yes! Then Ill look for a place for the dinner!
As Bill hurried off to find a venue for the dinner,
Theo-nim, arent you going to monitor?
Uren asked, puzzled.
Puhuhut. I, Vice Chairman Theo, can tell just by looking, meow!
What?!
Uren, just hurry up and provide the money for the dinner, meow!
Me? Yes!
At Theos command, Uren quickly pulled out some money.
A few hours later.
Puhuhut. Im heading back, meow!
Vice Chairman Theo, please be careful on your way back!
Thank you for the meal! Goodbye!
After finishing the company dinner, Theo, with Bill and the intern cats farewells, returned to the 99th floor of the tower.
And then,
Puhuhut.
Piyihihi.
Theo and Piyot, wearing the cloak of invisibility.
Sneak. Sneak.
They quietly approached Sejun, who was harvesting cherry tomatoes.
But,
Woof!
Meowww!
Piyo!
Sejun, one beat faster, startled them.
Meow! I was really surprised, meow! Chairman Park, how did you know, meow?!
Slap.
Theo quickly clung to Sejuns leg and asked.
Heh, I have my ways.
Sejun replied with a meaningful smile.
Just as Theo has a Sejun knee detector, Sejun has a Theo detector.
Chairman Park, tell me, meow!
Go to sleep.
Knowing that telling him would only make him overly proud, Sejun chose not to tell and
Pat. Pat.
stroked Theos belly to put him to sleep.
Tell me
Gororong.
Theo quickly fell asleep.
Thus, day 371 in the tower ended without any incidents, peacefully.
