YM778.TV Chapter 515: Sorry for calling you a stalker.
“Ahh, this is nice.”
While Kellion, in his true form, was enjoying drinking with other dragons from the Four Dragons Council in the form of the white dragon statue located in the Black Tower.
Woooong.
The Administrator’s crystal orb began to vibrate.
“Hmm? Come here.”
Kellion summoned the crystal orb with his magic and inspected it.
[Park Sejun, the Tower Farmer of the Black Tower, has achieved a great feat by unsealing the sun and restoring daylight to the White Tower.][Achieved one of the White Tower’s growth conditions by restoring daytime.]
[Four out of five great achievements required for the growth of the White Tower have been completed.]There was a welcome alert.
“Ahaha, as expected of our Sejun. He’s really doing a great job.”
Not only had Sejun transformed the Black Tower into the Great Black Tower, but now he was also working hard to help the White Tower grow into the Great White Tower.
Now, the remaining growth conditions for the White Tower…
[White Tower’s Growth Conditions (5/8)]– Tower Farmer (S): Not achieved
– Create more than 5 new varieties: Not achieved (0/5)
– Harvest more than 10 billion crops: Not achieved (5.6 billion/10 billion)
– Cultivate more than 3.3 million square meters of farmland: Exceeded (22 million square meters/3.3 million square meters)
– Grow a World Tree: Exceeded (Jujube tree [Unnamed], Coconut tree [Unnamed])
– Achieve 5 great feats: Not achieved (4/5)
– Restore daylight: Achieved
– Increase White Tower entrances to 120: Not achieved (87/120)
Kellion examined the unmet conditions.
“Forget about the 5 new species and the 120 entrances.”
The chances of fulfilling them were too low.
He also decided to give up on the S-class Tower Farmer condition, as he didn’t want to burden his grandson.
“If we exceed the harvest 10 billion crops condition and achieve five great feats, we can grow into the Great White Tower.”
Kellion formulated a plan for the White Tower’s growth, excluding the less likely conditions.
Just then,
Woooong.
The crystal orb vibrated again, bringing up another notification.
[Park Sejun, the Tower Farmer of the Black Tower, has achieved the great feat of creation by spreading the energy of creation in the White Tower.][All five great feats required for the White Tower’s growth have been fulfilled.]
[One of the growth conditions of the White Tower has been completed.]
Realizing he hadn’t yet spread the energy of creation in the White Tower, Sejun opened the Void Storage and spread the energy, reducing the stay cost by 0.5%.
Thanks to this, he achieved another great feat, fulfilling all five great achievements. The number of completed growth conditions for the White Tower increased from five to six.
Now, only two growth conditions for the White Tower remained.
“Aahaha. I should give our hardworking Sejun a gift.”
Kellion happily pondered what gift to give Sejun.
“Hmm…”
As Kellion contemplated,
“Armor would probably be a good idea, right?”
Since Sejun was as fragile as a sunfish.
“Maybe I should make something out of my horn?”
Kellion touched his horn and then,
Scratch, scratch.
He began to shave off his horn with his claws, gathering the horn dust. If he cut the horn, it would end up looking blunt and ruining his style.
Once he had gathered enough horn dust,
“Compress.”
Kellion compressed the horn dust.
Our Sejun has a weak body so a shield would be good. But our Sejun has low agility so he’s slow, and he’s not good at sensing magic power too…
Considering Sejun’s traits, Kellion molded the solidified horn dust into a round shield shape.
And then,
“Void space, Blink, Size adjustment, Detection, Levitation, Defense, Defense, Defense, Defense…”
He engraved the shield with the necessary magic through dragon words and layered defensive spells to the shield’s limit.
“Alright, it’s done.”
After Kellion finished making the shield for Sejun like that
“Grandson, come here for a moment.”
Kellion called Ajax to deliver the shield to Sejun. Ajax would be thrilled to bring this to Sejun.
However,
-Grandpa, I’m busy.
Ajax, who was eagerly waiting for the meat party with Sejun, was busy. His heart, that is.
“I have a gift for Sejun.”
-A gift for Sejun hyung?! I’ll be right there!
Of course, as soon as he heard it was a gift for Sejun, Ajax immediately rushed over to Kellion.
A little later.
“Grandpa, what’s the gift for Sejun hyung?”
Ajax, who appeared in the administrator’s area, eagerly ran up to Kellion with eyes full of anticipation.
“This.”
Kellion showed him a pure white shield.
“Ah! Grandfather, make me one just like this too! I want to carry it together with Sejun hyung!”
Ajax asked for a shield identical to Sejun’s.
“Hahaha, alright. Wait a moment.”
Scratch, scratch.
Feeling proud that Ajax wanted a shield he made, Kellion started scraping his horn again.
***
[You have arrived at the 99th floor of the White Tower.]As Sejun arrived,
“Sejun hyung!”
Ajax, who had been waiting for him, greeted Sejun excitedly.
Though it had only been a few hours since they last saw each other,
Hyung! I missed you!
Bung! Bung!
Ajax wagged his tail vigorously, showing his excitement.
“Hyung! Come over here. I’ve got everything ready for the meat party!”
The place Ajax led Sejun to had a neat table set beside a large lake, with tableware arranged on top.
Beside the table, there was also a grill and a brazier ready for cooking the meat.
“Wow, you really did prepare everything? It’s perfect.”
“Of course! I’m the great white dragon, Ajax Mamebe! Preparing for a meat party is something I can do lying down!”
“Really? You’re amazing, Ajax.”
Pat, pat.
Sejun praised Ajax while patting his head.
Sejun thought Ajax’s comment was just a boast to show off his skills, but Ajax had actually prepared everything while lying down.
At that moment,
“No, that’s wrong, meow! Ajax-nim’s preparations are incomplete, meow!”
Theo interjected, pointing out the flaw.
“There’s no grilled fish for me, meow!”
Because there wasn’t any grilled fish.
“Uhuhu! Of course, I have your grilled fish too, Theo. Levitation!”
When Ajax used magic,
Thud.
A giant fish floated out of the lake, flapping its fins.
“Puhuhut. Ajax-nim, your preparations are perfect, meow!”
Theo finally acknowledged Ajax’s efforts.
“Uhuhu. I told you my preparations were perfect! Oh, right! Sejun hyung, Grandpa said to give this to you.”
Feeling proud after Theo’s praise, Ajax handed Sejun a pure white round shield about 1 meter in diameter.
[Elder Brother Shield of Dragon Horn that Protects while in Hiding]“Elder Brother Shield of Dragon Horn that Protects while in Hiding?”
What is this, a stalker that protects while hiding. And Elder Brother Shield?
‘Then is there a Younger Brother Shield too?’
As Sejun pondered the peculiar name of the shield and was about to check its options,
“Yep! Hyung! It’s a set with this one!”
Ta-da!
Ajax, grinning widely, pulled out his own shield from the Void Storage to show Sejun.
[Younger Brother Shield of Dragon Horn that Protects while in Hiding]It really was a Younger Brother Shield.
While Sejun stared at the twin-like pair of sibling shields,
Hyung, aren’t you going to say something?
Ajax gazed at Sejun with shining eyes, expectantly waiting for something.
“Oh, wow! It’s great to use the same shield as you, Ajax! I’m so happy! Really!”
Sejun’s acting was terrible and incredibly awkward, but…
“Ehehe! Right?! I’m really happy to have the same shield as you, hyung!”
Despite Sejun’s poor acting, Ajax seemed genuinely delighted by his words.
Thankfully, it seemed Sejun’s sincerity had gotten through to Ajax, despite his awful acting.
“Ajax, make sure to tell Kellion-nim that I’ll use it well.”
“Okay, hyung!”
After Sejun spoke to Ajax, he checked the options of the shield.
[Elder Brother Shield of Dragon Horn that Protects while in Hiding]→ Created by the Great White Dragon, Kellion Mamebe, using his own horn and magic cast directly on it.
→ This shield remains hidden in the Void Space and, upon detecting its owner in danger, emerges on its own to protect them.
→ The shield is extremely sturdy, layered with 77 protective spells.
→ If the [Younger Brother Shield of Dragon Horn that Protects while in Hiding] is nearby, a set effect called ‘Brothers Are Strong’ activates, increasing the defense of both shields by 50%, and the Younger Brother Shield will also protect the owner of the Elder Brother Shield.
→ Usage Restriction: Only Park Sejun, recognized by Kellion Mamebe.
→ Creator: Kellion Mamebe.
→ Grade: Immeasurable.
“So, it hides in the Void and protects me.”
Sorry for calling you a stalker.
Sejun apologized to the shield for calling it a stalker.
Then, he infused the shield with magic.
Swish.
The shield disappeared into the Void Space, ready to protect Sejun.
“Alright, everyone, go have fun.”
Sejun let his group play and began grilling slime meat.
As Sejun was grilling,
“Puhuhut. I, the Hybrid Vice Chairman Theo, alongside the Great Hybrid Chairman Park, defeated the Evil Whale and earned the <Title: Human and Cat Who Destroyed Immortality>. Since I have the same title as Chairman Park, I am the second-in-command, meow!”
Theo began boasting about his and Sejun’s achievements, starting a battle for second-in-command.
Kuehehehe. Kueng! Kueng!
[Hehehe. Dad said he loves me even if I eat a lot or cause trouble! So, I’m the second-in-command!]
“Eehehe! Look at this! My grandpa made this for me! Sejun hyung and I both use the same shield. Isn’t it cool?! So that makes me the second-in-command.”
Neither Cuengi nor Ajax backed down.
“No, meow! I’m the second-in-command, meow!”
Kueng!
[Cuengi is the second-in-command!]
“No! I’m the second-in-command!”
The three fought without listening to each other until Sejun called them.
A little while later,
“Guys, it’s time to eat!”
When Sejun called out,
“Puhuhut. Got it, meow!”
Kueng!
“Okay, hyung!”
The three, as if they hadn’t just been fighting, sat down happily to eat with Sejun.
Though Theo only ate grilled fish from start to finish,
The others enjoyed a variety of slime dishes, starting with grilled slime meat, slime bulgogi, slime braised dishes, and slime shabu-shabu.
“I’m going to make steamed slime next.”
As the meat party entered its final phase,
Thud. Thud.
A white ogre approached the spot where Sejun and the others were.
104.28.193.250
[Ogre King Les, Boss of the White Tower’s 99th Floor]It was the boss of the 99th floor of the tower.
“Ajax-nim, I’ve brought the locust meat.”
“Thanks.”
Les handed a small leather pouch to Ajax.
Recently, the White Tower had started planting green onions outside the tower, allowing them to catch locusts, and Ajax had asked Les to bring back some locust meat.
“Alright, I’ll be off now.”
“Take this with you to eat.”
Sejun handed some food to Les, who was about to return to his waypoint.
“Thank you.”
Les gratefully accepted the food from Sejun.
At that moment
Wait, this feeling…?!
Les sensed a familiar energy.
Battle aura.
The glorious blessing and curse left on the body of one who has killed a warrior of <Balkan>.
It’s a blessing because the battle aura strengthens the one who possesses it each time it accumulates beyond a certain point.
But it’s also a curse, because ogres will chase down the one who killed their kin until death.
And from Sejun’s body, a faint trace of the battle aura could be felt.
It should have been much stronger, but 90% of it had been taken by Patrick and Hamer, leaving only a very weak trace. (TL: Ogres defeated in 10th tower)
“Park Sejun-nim. As the King of Balkan, in accordance with tradition, I will avenge my people.”
“Huh?!”
Les drew in his energy and swung his fist at Sejun.
Though he was a king in name only who took refuge alone in the White Tower thanks to his people’s sacrifice.
Though he was an incompetent king who not only lost his people to destruction but couldn’t save his people who became the sixth calamity.
Even though he was attacking a guest of the great white dragon who had shown him grace.
Even though his opponent had been kind to him.
Even though he knew he would die here.
As a king, he still had to avenge his people. That was the mission he had to fulfill as the Ogre King.
Bang!
As expected.
Les’s attack was blocked by the two shields that Kellion had made. However, the shields that withstood Les’s massive blow began to crack.
Will they forgive me a little now?
As Les predicted his own end with a bitter smile,
Haak! Haak!
Kuo!Kuo!
At the same time, rough breathing sounds came from below.
Thwack!
“Kuerk!”
Les felt a huge impact on the back of his head and his abdomen and lost consciousness.
