Chapter 403: Sejun Has Appeared!!!
TL: Hanguk
20km west of Houston, Texas, USA.
Keeek.
“Block them!”
“Use fire magic!”
100,000 American hunters were forming a barrier, fighting off the flesh eaters that were swarming in like zombies.
People weren’t fools, and they figured out why more flesh eaters appeared even after killing them.
It was because of the seeds inside the flesh eaters’ heads.
So to remove the flesh eaters’ seeds, they tried to eliminate the seeds by launching missiles and using flamethrowers, but Earth’s weapons were ineffective.
Fortunately, they discovered that hunters’ magic worked, and fire magic was the most effective.
However, there was no time to remove the seeds.
Keeaak.
“Block them!”
“Mages, attack!”
They were barely managing to fend off the incoming flesh eaters.Alll latest novels on novelbin/(.)com
“Have you contacted Captain K?”
“Well... he’s inside the tower, so it’s not easy to contact him.”
While American hunters were defending Houston and fighting the flesh eaters, the CIA was searching for Han Tae-jun.
They needed to contact Sejun again to seek Paespaes’s help once again.
Robin and Peter, who went to Korea, approached the staff working at the Hanla Building and dug up information, discovering one fact.
The employees were instructed to cooperate unconditionally if a golden bat appeared.
Thanks to this, the CIA was 100% convinced that Paespaes was Sejun’s pet.
So they were trying to find Han Tae-jun, who could contact Sejun, but Han Tae-jun was staying inside the tower.
While American hunters were focusing on Houston, hunters worldwide were concentrating on eliminating flesh eaters on the 4th floor of the tower.
The reason was the quest to accumulate contributions.
The higher the contributions, the better the rewards, so hunters were fervently exterminating flesh eaters.
While the USA was looking for a way to ask Sejun for help,
[Good! Our sausage is eating well.]
Flamie, who was protecting Earth, was entirely focusing on growing Sausage with only the consciousness left in the roots in Korea.

Black Tower, 99th floor.
Kuehehehe. Kueng!
[Hehehe. I found some herbs good for dad’s health!]
Cuengi, who had found herbs Sejun needed from the western forest, flew back excitedly in a Superman pose.
As Cuengi approached home,
Thud.
Where is Dad?
Landing on the ground, Cuengi looked for Sejun.
Then,
Sniff, sniff.
···!!!
The scent of food Cuengi had only tasted once flowed into his nose.
A scent unforgettable even after just one taste.
It’s Sotteok-sotteok!
Cuengi hurriedly followed the scent to the kitchen.
And then,
Kueng!
[Dad, Cuengi is here!]
Clinging to Sejun’s back, who was making Sotteok-sotteok sauce, Cuengi rubbed his face against him in greeting.
“Hmm. Cuengi is here?”
Kueng! Kueng!
[That’s right! This is an herb for dad to eat!]
Cuengi took out two golden kudzu roots from his snack pouch.
[Golden Kudzu Root of Detoxification]
The two kudzu roots had the same name but differed in thickness.
Let’s check the options first.
Sejun checked the options of the kudzu roots.
[Golden Kudzu Root of Detoxification]
→ A kudzu root that grew by absorbing the nutrients from toxic potatoes planted around it due to a strong will to survive.
→ When consumed, Stamina increases by 10.
→ When consumed, awakens the Talent: D-grade Poison Resistance.
→ It has a bitter taste.
→ Usage restriction: Stamina 100 or above, Magic Power 100 or above.
→ Grade: D
[Golden Kudzu Root of Detoxification]
→ A kudzu root that grew by absorbing the nutrients from toxic potatoes planted around it due to a strong will to survive.
→ When consumed, Stamina increases by 20.
→ When consumed, awakens the Talent: C-grade Poison Resistance.
→ It has a bitter taste.
→ Usage restriction: Those who have awakened the Talent: D-grade Poison Resistance, Stamina 100 or above, Magic Power 100 or above.
→ Grade: C
There was a reason for the difference in thickness.
“One is D-grade, and the other is C-grade.”
Cuengi, you little rascal...
Sejun seemed to understand why Cuengi had brought kudzu roots that could awaken poison resistance talent.
You did it because I collapsed yesterday, huh?
Today, Cuengi, you can eat all the Sotteok-sotteok.
“Cuengi, wash your hands and sit down. I’ll make Sotteok-sotteok for you soon.”
Sejun told Cuengi.
Crunch. Crunch.
Sejun ate the thinner kudzu root that Cuengi had brought first. It was bitter, but he chewed diligently, thinking of Cuengi’s sincerity.
[You have consumed the Golden Kudzu Root of Detoxification.] [You have consumed the Golden Kudzu Root of Detoxification.] [Summoning Ajax, slave from the White Tower.] [Your soul is fulfilled by the pouring praises.] [The seal on the Earth’s Jewel has been broken.]
Cuengi went to sleep with Pink-fur, and Ajax returned to the White Tower.
Gulp.
[You have consumed medicinal mugwort.]
[All stats increase by 20.]
[Your lifespan increases by 3 months.]
[You have consumed a bitter medicinal herb.]
[Talent: A Medicine That’s Bitter is Good for Stamina activates.]
[Your stamina increases by 9.]
Sejun fell asleep after consuming the medicinal mugwort.
Sejun ate the 20th medicinal mugworts today. Thanks to that, his lifespan increased by 5 years.

Seed Shop Headquarters
[6 Mushroom Ants, tenant farmers of Black Tower’s Tower Farmer Park Sejun, have passed by your temple.]
[Divine Power increases by 0.0006.]
“Huhuhut.”
Indeed, the diligence of the mushroom ants...
While Leah was pleased with the steadily increasing Divine Power and praised the diligence of the mushroom ants,
[Cuengi, the herbalist Black Tower’s tower farmer Park Sejun, passed by your temple.]
[Divine Power increases by 0.1.]
“Oh! It’s Cuengi!”
Leah cheered at Cuengi’s appearance.
One Cuengi provided as much Divine Power as 1,000 mushroom ants passing by the temple.
“Phew. I was worried since he hadn’t come by lately...”
Leah, who had been concerned that Cuengi might have changed his route, sighed in relief.
At that moment,
[Park Sejun, the Black Tower’s tower farmer, passed by your temple.]
[Divine Power increases by 0.5.]
“Oh! Sejun has appeared!!!”
Sejun provided as much Divine Power as 5,000 mushroom ants.
Thanks to this, Leah was able to invest a substantial amount of Divine Power into creating divine relics today.
While Leah was making relics,
“Leah nim, new gods have arrived!”
Another god came looking for Leah.
“Really?!”
Leah hurried to the plaza.
“Hey, guys, nice to see you!”
“Dwell, it’s been a while!”
“Mar, you were also released from the seal by Park Sejun, right?”
“Pearl, it’s been a really long time!”
The non-combatant gods were welcoming the three newly arrived gods.
And then,
“So, what did you guys give as rewards?”
The topic of conversation among the gods soon turned to what rewards the three new gods had given Sejun.
Because Sejun would build temples for them after receiving rewards.
“I gave a sparkling water well.”
“I gave a marble path made of gold and jewels.”
“I gave a pearl oyster farm that adjusts gravity.”
As the three gods shared their rewards,
[Black Tower Farmer Park Sejun has built a temples (10 square meters) for Dwell, the god of wells.]
[Divine Power increases by 9.]
···
..
.
Sejun built Dwell Road with 10 square meters, Mar Road with 3.3 square meters, and Pearl Road with 1.65 square meters of path.
Unfortunately, Sejun simply considered the pearl oyster farm made by Pearl as just an oyster farm.
“Ah! We have temples!”
“Wow!”
“Congratulations!”
As the three gods received their temples, the other gods cheered and congratulated them.
“Park Sejun!”
“Park Sejun!”
The gods began chanting Sejun’s name, who had built the temples for them.
The atmosphere grew more festive.
But,
“It’s noisy.”
A passing battle god interrupted again.
The non-combatant gods had twelve temples that could generate Divine Power on their own, but it was still far less compared to the battle gods.
Just wait and see!
The non-combatant gods longed for the day when they could loudly call out Sejun’s name,
“Park Sejun...”
“Park Sejun...”
They chanted his name in whispers barely audible.
And,
‘If I send a believer to ask Park Sejun... will he build a temple for me too?’
While non-combatant gods without temples desperately searched for beings who could become their believers somewhere in the world,

96th floor of the Black Tower.
“Puhuhut. We’ve finally arrived, meow!”
Theo arrived in front of a giant white castle, the White Bone Castle, ruled by Regius, the Lord of Bones.
