Chapter 313: Chairman Pawk, Wet go, myaow!
Theo swayed his tail leisurely as he walked slowly through the Black Market headquarters where goods were displayed.
And then
Puhuhut. Im drawn to this, meow!
Chuk.
He picked up a glass bottle filled with a juice-like liquid. This should be given to Chairman Park as a nutritional supplement, meow!
This one too, meow!
Chuk.
This time, he picked up two identical rings. Puhuhut. These are couple rings for Chairman Park and me, meow!
Chuk. Chuk. Chuk.
Theo grabbed everything that his front paws were even slightly drawn to.
Having 100 trillion Tower Coins, he had no need to hesitate.
As Theo passed by, only picking up items he was drawn to,
Flap. Flap.
Piyo!
[Puhuht. As Theo-nims right hand man, Pirururur Yotra, will take care of picking everything up for you!]
Piyot followed behind Theo, stuffing all the remaining items into the bag.
Trusting Piyot and focusing on his attractions, Theo entered a small room at the end of a huge room where items were displayed.
But
Meow?! Theres no way through, meow!
He felt an attraction beyond the wall of the small room, but there was no way to get there.
Clang.
Thus, Theo, being the golden cat Theo, he tried to create a path by pulling out his dragon claws.
Just then
Kung.
A trap to stop intruders seemed to be in place as an iron door started to close the entrance of the small room,
Uung.
Meow?
A magic circle engraved on the wall began to activate.
And then
Kwagwagwang!
A massive explosion occurred inside the room, aiming to annihilate its presence.
?!
Of course, Theo, with his talent: strong fur and dragon skin, was fine. His fur just became a bit curly.
My furs gotten messy, meow! It feels unpleasant, meow!
Lick. Lick.
While Theo grumbled and used his tongues healing skill to groom his fur,
Kung. Kung.
Piyo?!
[Theo-nim, are you alright?!]
Piyot, who heard the explosion from beyond the iron door, pecked at the door and shouted.
Puhuhut. Im fine, meow! Continue with what you were doing, Piyot, meow!
Theo reassured the worried Piyot and
Bang!
He broke down the wall he was originally trying to destroy. Beyond the wall, a new path appeared.
Puhuhut. The attraction is getting stronger, meow!
Following the attraction, Theo moved forward and found a small warehouse at the end of the path.
And then
Puhuhut. Chairman Park would like this, meow!
He discovered unexpected things in the warehouse. Things like flour and milk, which were not available in the Black Tower.
Theo grinned broadly as he gathered items from the warehouse.
***
Koong.
A giant explosion vibrated the room where Pansur and Panchen were.
Could it be?! Was the trap activated?
Pansurs expression turned serious. Those items must not be discovered
Because those items were smuggled from another tower.
Pansur, the owner of the Black Market, had another identity.
That is, the King of Smuggling.
Using the land deed, Pansur traveled between towers, bringing items not available in the Black Tower and making a fortune.
Therefore, it was imperative not to let the great Black Dragons subordinates discover the smuggled goods.
Proud dragons hate the idea of items from other towers entering their own.
If the great Black Dragon discovers the smuggling
I might be expelled from the Black Tower.
A soul expelled from the tower has no world to return to and is absorbed by destruction, leading to annihilation.
Shivering.
As Pansur trembled with anxiety,
Theo returned humming a tune. Now, Chairman Parks lap will always be mine, meow!
Puhuhut. Ive charged you a special high price, meow!
Theo, in a benevolent tone, handed the bill to Pansur, who had helped him make a significant contribution.
[10 trillion Tower Coins]
Even if you combine all the items in the Black Market headquarters, it would barely amount to 1 trillion Tower Coins, so he was given a very good price.
Still, that left a debt of 90 trillion Tower Coins, so its the same as being a slave
Then, Ill come again next time, so keep the warehouse stocked, meow! Iona, Piyot, lets go, meow!
And so, Theo left the Black Market headquarters with Iona and Piyot.
A short while later.
Why did he just leave?
Pansur fell into doubt as he looked at the cleanly cleared out smuggled goods warehouse.
***
Inside the kitchen.
Sszzt! Sszzt!
Sejun crushed the white cherry tomatoes, collecting the juice in a bowl.
And as he picked out the seeds from the juice,
[You have obtained a seed of the Elixir: Cherry Tomato (+1) Imbued with Powerful Magic Power.]
[Your job experience points increase slightly.]
[Your proficiency of Seed Harvesting Lv. 8 has slightly increased.]
[You need to use the Seed Harvesting skill 720,83 more times to complete the job quest.]
Messages appeared.
Sejun was extracting seeds from the 100 elixir-grade cherry tomatoes harvested by Ajax.
Done.
After obtaining 3500 seeds, Sejun called out.
Ajax!
He called to Ajax, who was busily pulling out Detoxifying Green Onions with Veronica in the green onion field.
Did you call me, Sejun hyung-nim?
Ajax, wagging his tail excitedly, flew quickly in response to Sejuns call.
But
Yep. Plant these in the White Tower.
Sejun handed the seeds he had just harvested to Ajax.
Euhing. I came in the morning, and now I have to go again?
Ajax immediately drooped his tail and looked gloomy. He didnt want to be away from his hyung
If you plant all the seeds, Ill summon you right away.
Really?
Of course. Dont you trust me?
No! I do! I might not trust Grandpa, but I trust Sejun-hyung!
Ajax, who had full faith in Sejun, answered firmly.
Good. In return, Ill make you something delicious for lunch when you come back.
Really?! What will you make?
Soy sauce Tteokbokki. Even Cuengi hasnt tried this before.
Really?! Then send me quickly! So I can finish before lunch!
Ajaxs heart raced at the mention of food even Cuengi hadnt tasted.
Alright. Ajax, return.
Hyung-nim, Ill be back.
[Sending back Ajax Mamubre, the Tower Farmer of the White Tower.]
Ajax waved his hand vigorously and disappeared.
And then
Ssuk. Ssuk.
Instead of Ajax, who had left for the White Tower, he harvested the detoxifying green onions.
While harvesting the detoxifying green onions like that,
[You have harvested Detoxifying Green Onions.]
[Due to the effects of Harvesting Lv. 8, a crop of one grade higher has been harvested.]
[Your job experience points increase slightly.]
[Your proficiency of Harvesting Lv. 8 has slightly increased.]
[You have gained 200 experience points.]
[Experience points do not accumulate as the job quest has not been completed.]
A message appeared that a crop of one grade higher had been harvested.
Huh?!
If the grade increases by one step from S grade?!
SS grade?!
Sejun hurriedly checked the Detoxifying Green Onions.
[Detoxifying Green Onions]Green onions grown inside the tower that have absorbed sufficient nutrients and are delicious.
When consumed, it detoxifies poisons of SS grade or lower until its detoxification ability is exhausted.
When consumed by a non-Awakener, it grants a healthy liver until they die.
Cultivator: Tower Farmer Park Sejun
Expiration Date: 210 days
Grade: SS
Wow!
This was the best item for drinkers. Or maybe the worst, since theyll never get drunk
This is too precious to eat
Sejun pondered for a moment and then stored them in the void storage, thinking there might come a time when they are needed.
Ssuk. Ssuk.
After placing the SS-grade Detoxifying Green Onions into the void storage, Sejun started pulling out the green onions again.
While Sejun was pulling out the green onions like that,
[What have you been up to lately? I havent paid attention to you for a few days, and the nutritional state of your roots is so poor?]
Flamie was scolding Podori, examining its roots.
[What?! Ive been consistently eating the nutrients given by Flamie-nim!]
Podori was startled by Flamies words. How did she know? I only released a little
[This wont do. Eat 5 nutrient supplements from today.]
[What?!]
Even three nutrient supplements were already too much, but five?!
[Why? You dont want to?]
Flurrrr.
Flamie asked in a chilling voice, creating fire around the roots.
[N-no! Id love to!]
Terrified, Podori hurriedly answered to survive.
And then,
[But, if I eat a lot, wont there be a shortage of nutrients for Little Flamie?]
Podori awkwardly pretended to be concerned about Little Flamie.
[Huhuhu. Are you worried there might not be enough nutrients?]
Flamie started pulling out nutrients, laughing at Podoris words.
[Therethere are so many?]
[Yes. So, dont worry about the nutrients.]
Flamie kept pulling out endless supplies of nutrients.
***
99th floor of the White Tower.
Lets finish quickly!
Ajax, needing to finish before lunch, was earnestly planting the seeds.
Pock.
He made a hole for the seed with his hand,
Swoosh.
placed the seed in the ground,
Thump. Thump.
and covered it with soil.
Three hours later.
Done!
Ajax had planted all 3500 seeds.
I wonder when Sejun hyung-nim will call me
Ajax crouched down and waited for Sejuns summon.
***
Veronica, please take the green onions to Tier-nim.
Yes!
After harvesting the green onions, Sejun sent Veronica to Tier.
Guys!
He went to the cornfield where the Mushroom Ants were working, thinking of harvesting mushrooms for the soy sauce Tteokbokki.
Kwek! Kwek!
At Sejuns call, the Mushroom Ants ran over
Rub rub.
and affectionately rubbed their bodies against Sejuns legs.
Tuk. Tuk.
Sejun harvested the necessary mushrooms from the backs of the Mushroom Ants.
Then,
Kueng!
[Daddy, Cuengi is back!]
Cuengi returned from the herb field.
Kuehehehe. Kueng?
[Hehehe. Is there anything Cuengi can help with?]
Cuengi asked Sejun, hoping to earn some pocket money.
Then, do you want to help Dad make lunch?
Kueng!
[Okay!]
Cuengi happily agreed to Sejuns request.
With Cuengis assistance, Sejun began cooking.
Cuengi, please cut the rice cakes into bite-sized pieces.
Kueng!
[Got it!]
Sejun took out uncut rice cakes from the void storage and handed them to Cuengi,
Ssak ssak ssak .
and started chopping carrots, onions, and mushrooms, adding them to the pot to stir-fry.
Once the vegetables were cooked,
Cuengi, the rice cakes are
Sejun turned towards Cuengi to add the rice cakes.
He saw 15cm-sized rice cakes neatly stacked. Ah. 15cm is a nice size for Cuengi to eat
Sejun blamed himself for not explaining properly.
Did Cuengi do well?
Cuengi looked proudly facing Sejun.
Chuk.
Of course you did well. Sejun gave Cuengi a thumbs up, thinking hell have cut them secretly later.
Warururur.
Sejun poured the 15cm-sized rice cakes into the pot.
And then,
Szzt.
added two cups of water,
Soy sauce, salt, honey
added the seasoning, letting the sauce thicken around the rice cakes and vegetables.
Tak. Tak.
While secretly dividing the rice cakes into thirds with a spatula without Cuengi noticing.
A short while later.
[You have achieved the achievement of making soy sauce Tteokbokki for the first time in the tower.]
[The recipe for soy sauce Tteokbokki is registered in Cooking Lv. 8.]
[Your proficiency of Cooking Lv. 8 has slightly increased.]
With the completion of the achievement message, the soy sauce Tteokbokki was finished.
[White Towers Tower Farmer Ajax Mamebe has completed planting 3500 seeds of Elixir: Cherry Tomato (+1) Imbued with Powerful Magic Power.]
At the same time, a message appeared indicating that Ajax had finished the task Sejun had given him.
Ajax, Summ
Just as Sejun was about to summon Ajax,
Chairman Park, I have returned, meow!
Theo, having returned to the farm, launched himself at Sejuns face, covering Sejuns mouth.
Vice Chairman Theo, havent I told you not to fly at my face?!!!
Sejun, enraged, grabbed Theo by the scruff of the neck, detaching him from his face as he shouted.
However,
Chairman Parks face looks rotten, meow!
Its not rotten!
Puhuhut. Dont worry, meow! I, Vice Chairman Theo, will make sure it doesnt rot, meow!
Theo, failing to read the room.
Come here!
Chairman Pawk, Wet go, myaow!
Ultimately, Sejun began his retribution by stretching Theos cheeks.
Thanks to that, the summoning of Ajax was delayed a lot.
