TL: Hanguk
[You have been recognized as the rightful owner of the Grape Farm on the 4th floor of the Black Tower.]
...
..
.
Since he had already been managing the grape farm, Sejun was immediately acknowledged as the rightful owner of the land deed.
While checking the message,
“Hey! Stop licking!”
Splat.
Sejun hurriedly removed Kalchi from licking his shoe.
Then,
Chuee! Chuee!
[Please let me lick it! I want to lick the shoes of the great hybrid, Sejun-nim!]
Kalchi flailed wildly in Sejun’s hands.
At that moment,
Clank.
“Chairman Park, I’ve missed you, meow!”
Chairman Park, your face looks ugly again, meow!
Theo suddenly emerged from the Void Storage and threw himself at Sejun’s face.
Just a moment ago, Sejun’s expression had twisted slightly after bumping into Kalchi, which apparently bothered Theo.
Squish. Squish.
As Theo began massaging Sejun’s face,
Chuee! Chuee!
[Theo-nim! I’ve missed you! It’s me, Kalchi!]
Kalchi called out to Theo.
“Puhuhut. I know, meow! Great Hybrid Chairman Park, you’re amazing, meow. You’ve already found Kalchi, meow!”
Chuee! Chuee!
[That’s right! Sejun-nim found me right away!]
That’s enough now!
Having reunited with both Sejun and Theo, Kalchi was absolutely delighted.
After all, Kalchi had now met Sejun, who was omniscient (?), and Theo, who could vouch for Kalchi’s words.
To Kalchi, it seemed as if all his problems had been resolved.
Kueng!
[Kalchi, nice to see you!]
Kihihit. Kking! Kking?
[Hehe. Welcome, Kalchi! Want to play with me?]
Next, Cuengi and the rest of the Blackie Family also emerged from the Void Storage.
“Sejun-nim, hello.”
“I, Philip, Sejun-nim’s first hoe, greets you.”
Ssibal the 18th and Philip approached Sejun and greeted him.
“Yeah, have you both been well?”
While asking about their wellbeing, Sejun
“Land Moving.”
erected an achievement monument.
[Leah’s Achievement Monument No. 2]
This was the reason Sejun had come to the 4th floor of the tower, to build Leah’s achievement monument and assign followers to it.
“Ssibal the 18th, you’ll manage Leah-nim’s achievement monument from now on.”
“Yes! Please leave it to me!”
“Alright. I’m off, then.”
Since Sejun had other places to go, he quickly bid farewell.
“Everyone, get back inside.”
He sent his companions back into the Void Storage.
And then,
Swooosh.
He used the land deed for the Black Tower’s 2nd floor and disappeared.
Having descended already, Sejun intended to secure the 2nd floor farmland as well.
***
[You have arrived on the 2nd floor of the Black Tower.]
[You have moved from the tower’s topmost floor, the 99th floor, to the 2nd floor.]
104.28.193.250
[You descended 97 floors.]
[Due to the <Title: Retrogressor> and the <Title: One Who Reached the Summit of the Seven Towers>, all stats increase by 679.]
[Due to the <Title: One Who Reached the Summit of the Seven Towers>, you gain 3 seconds of invincibility.]
As soon as Sejun arrived on the 2nd floor, messages appeared before him.
The <Title: One Who Reached the Summit of the Seven Towers> had been acquired during Sejun’s quest to gather materials for the Nine-Attribute Infused Wine, after registering the waypoints of the 99th floors of the Purple Tower and the Brown Tower. Ṝ
Thanks to this, the Retrogressor effect had increased from 5x to 7x, and the invincibility duration had risen from 1 second to 3 seconds.
“There shouldn’t be anything here, right?”
Since the 2nd floor of the tower no longer posed any significant threat to him, Sejun scanned the area with a relaxed expression.
But it’s too empty?
The surroundings were a barren wasteland, completely devoid of anything.
The 2nd and 3rd floors of the tower had been turned into desolate lands after Michael had set up his experience farming areas there. Since then, the floors had been abandoned and neglected, leaving even hunters to merely pass through without stopping.
At that moment,
Clank.
“Chairman Park, I’ve missed you, meow!”
Chuee!
[Sejun-nim, this time I’ll truly show you my loyalty!]
Theo and Kalchi, following behind him, hurled themselves toward Sejun.
And then,
Squish. Squish.
Lick. Lick.
Theo massaged Sejun’s face while Kalchi licked his shoes.
“Hey! We just saw each other a moment ago!”
Sejun hurriedly pushed the two away as he exclaimed.
“A moment ago is too long, meow! It’s already been a whole minute since we last met, meow!”
Chuee! Chuee!
[That’s right! So please let me lick your shoes!]
Theo and Kalchi confidently shouted, placing their front paws on their waists.
The two were perfectly in sync.
At that moment,
[A quest has appeared.]
[Quest: Rebuild the Farm.]
Farm Restoration Progress (0%)
They silently entrusted their revenge to Sejun.
“Alright. It’s finally quiet. Now, where were we?”
Battler turned to Hunt, the God of Hunting, whose eyes were dark and swollen like a panda, and asked.
“I said we can’t fail this time because we’ll use Churu.”
“Churu? What’s that?”
“This. No cat can resist this.”
Hunt confidently revealed a sticky, pungent food item that emitted an overwhelming fishy smell.
“Ugh! That stinks! Put it away now!”
“Yes!”
As Battler frowned and clenched his fist, Hunt quickly stashed the Churu away.
“So, you’re saying this Churu thing works on Theo too?”
“Absolutely. It’s 100% effective. This time, I’ll assist personally as well.”
Hunt, whose pride as the God of Hunting and even his life were at stake, decided to join the mission to capture Theo.
***
[You have arrived at the 1st floor of the Black Tower.]
...
..
.
Clank.
“Chairman Park, I’ve missed you, meow!”
Chuee! Chuee!
The moment Sejun arrived on the 1st floor, the Void Storage opened, and Theo and Kalchi lunged toward Sejun’s face and shoes.
Swoosh.
He couldn’t avoid Theo’s face attack but
Whoosh.
Chuee?!
But he managed to evade Kalchi’s attempt to pounce on his shoes.
“Hm?”
What’s this fishy smell?
Sejun turned his head toward the source of the pungent odor.
Kuehehehe.
Lick. Lick.
Cuengi was eagerly eating Churu, and
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. It’s so tasty!]
Slurp. Slurp.
Next to Cuengi was Blackie, who had gotten a bite, licking the Churu around his mouth.
“Where did that Churu come from?”
“Puhuhut. Battler-nim gave it to me, meow!”
“Why does he keep giving you food?”
“Puhuhut. It’s only natural to offer food to your superior, meow!”
“Is that so?”
Sejun had asked about the reason before when Battler gave Theo the Grilled Vigorous Giant Tuna That Cats Love, and
He heard that Battler had gotten stamped inside Theo’s mental world.
“Puhuhut. That’s right, meow!”
“But this smell is way too strong. Alright, let’s go brush your teeth.”
While the Maintain Cleanliness skill could clean the outside, it couldn’t reach the insides of their mouthsand, so they had to brush manual.
Kueng!
[Got it!]
At Sejun’s words, Cuengi pulled out his toothbrush from his snack pouch, and
Kking! Kking!
[No! Toothpaste tastes bad!]
Blackie tried to run away.
But,
“It’s roasted sweet potato-flavored toothpaste, though?”
Kking?! Kihihit! Kking!
[Really?! Hehe! Then I’ll do it!]
Hearing Sejun’s words, Blackie immediately ran back.
“Okay. Open wide.”
Kking!
Roasted sweet potato flavor! Roasted sweet potato flavor!
Blackie, now filled with anticipation, happily opened his mouth wide.
And then,
Scrub. Scrub.
As Sejun inserted the toothbrush and began brushing,
...!
The sweetness that spread through Blackie’s mouth was incredible. It was a perfect roasted sweet potato flavor.
To perfectly replicate the taste of real roasted sweet potatoes, are you a genius, butler?
As Blackie was amazed once again by his butler’s genius,
...?
Suddenly, the taste changed. No, it returned to the original toothpaste flavor.
Sejun had tricked Blackie by putting a little piece of dried roasted sweet potato on the toothbrush at first, only to switch it to real toothpaste midway through.
Kking!
[Nooo!]
Realizing belatedly that he was tricked, Blackie broke free from Sejun’s hand. Or rather, Sejun let him go.
“Hahaha. It’s already done. Rinse your mouth with water.”
The brushing was already complete.
Once again, Blackie had been easily fooled today.
How could the great Blackie have been deceived?!
As Blackie fumed in frustration,
Kyuui?! Kyuui!
[What’s your problem?! Move out of my way!]
A golden hamster carrying luggage yelled at Blackie, irritated, even though Blackie wasn’t blocking its path at all.
It was like slapping someone who already wanted to cry.
Kking! Kking!
[I am the great Blackie! Don’t mess with me!]
Bonk.
Blackie headbutted the hamster.
