Solo Farming In The Tower

Chapter 703: Should I ask Corruption later?

TL: Hanguk

PR: MiniPixelZ

-You bastard! Do not mock me!

Corruption, displaying a rougher demeanor than usual, tried to hide that his heart had been shaken.

“Vice Chairman Theo, Seo Beam!”

“Got it, meow!”

Sejun and Theo dealt with Corruption using their combined attack.

After that, Corruption appeared about five more times, and Sejun was able to earn 500 billion Tower Coins thanks to the Seo Beam.

While Sejun and his companions continued to purify the World’s Energy,

(Pip-pip!)

Swish.

104.28.193.250

Paespaes continued diligently opening dimensional gates, searching for <Kpies> and <Tsuyne>, where treasures were hidden.

However,

(Pip-pip. This isn’t the place either.)

Finding the two worlds was harder than expected.

But I’ll keep trying!

Without giving up, Paespaes opened the dimensional gate again.

A little while later,

(Pip-pip. What is the name of this world?)

Paespaes, who had arrived in a new world, flew to a passing man and asked for the world’s name.

“Ah. You must be a dimensional wanderer?”

(Pip-pip? Dimensional Wanderer?)

“Yes. We call people from other dimensions Dimensional Wanderers. And this world is called Kpies.”

The man wasn’t surprised by Paespaes’ question and welcomed him as if meeting a foreign tourist.

I found it!

Paespaes was also delighted by the man’s answer.

And,

“Ah, I forgot to introduce myself. Nice to meet you. I’m Morgan.”

(Pip-pip! Morgan-nim, nice to meet you! My name is Park Paespaes!)

After exchanging introductions,

“Would it be alright if I showed you around our neighborhood?”

Morgan offered to give Paespaes a tour.

(Pip-pip. Morgan-nim, would it be okay if I come back with my companions later for the tour?)

Since Paespaes wanted to enjoy the visit with Sejun, he asked Morgan.

“Of course. Anytime. If you’re looking for me, just come to the big mansion you see over there.”

Morgan pointed to a large mansion in the distance and began walking toward it.

***

Morning on the 99th floor of the Black Tower.

“Alright.”

Sejun, who had purified the world’s energy all night, opened his eyes.

[You have completely eliminated the Corruption within the <World’s Energy> and completed the <Purified World’s Energy>]

[You have completed the quest.]

[As a quest reward, all stats have increased by 7.]

..

[As a quest completion reward, the stay fee for the 0th floor has been reduced by 0.0001%.]

“Nice.”

Now I just need to reduce the stay fee by another 21.6991% to go home for free.

“Hehehe. Then I can meet Aileen safely too.”

Sejun grinned at the thought of meeting Aileen.

Since he couldn’t find a solution inside the Tower, he was planning to reduce the stay fee by 100% to meet Aileen on Earth.

Aileen’s stay fee was enormous, but the moment the stay fee reduction became 100%, the cost would be zero. It wouldn’t be a problem at all.

As long as the system doesn’t mess with me.

Of course, to prepare for any situation, impeaching the system is essential.

Once I go back, everyone will be jealous of me, right? Because my Aileen is just too beautiful.

Sejun imagined introducing Aileen to his friends, even though he didn’t have any.

“Hehehe.”

After indulging in that pleasant fantasy for a while,

“Meow…”

Kking…

Clank.

He gathered his companions and opened the Void Storage.

And then,

Press. Swoosh.

Press. Swoosh.

[Black Tower’s Lucky Legendary Merchant Park Theo, has defeated the first Calamity of Destruction, White Locust.]

[You have obtained 50 million experience points, which is 50% of the experience gained by Park Theo.]

[Due to the effect of <Title: Owner of the Calamity Farm>, you have acquired an additional 100 million experience points.]

..

.

Pressing Theo’s front paw, Sejun began hunting Calamities with the One-Meow Slash.

A little while later.

“Done.”

“Meow…”

Sejun, who had gone all the way to the slime farm, raised both of Theo’s front paws in a cheer and finished his work.

“But…”

Why haven’t the ogres and planet-destroying turtles been appearing lately?

‘I want to complete the quest and become a building owner soon.’

Destruction’s First Calamity: Defeat 500 billion Locusts (500 billion / 500 billion)

Destruction’s Second Calamity: Defeat 50 billion Giant Blood-sucking Leeches (50 billion / 50 billion)

..

.

Destruction’s Sixth Calamity: Defeat 10,000 Ogres (321/10,000)

Destruction’s Seventh Calamity: Defeat 1,000 Planet-Destroying Turtles (35/1,000)

Destruction’s Eighth Calamity: Defeat 100 billion Flesh Eaters (100 billion/100 billion)

Sejun checked the quest conditions to become the owner of the 10th Tower and felt disappointed.

Everything else was already completed, but he was still far from finishing the Ogre and Planet-Destroying Turtle quotas.

Although Patrick, the God of Earth, Hamer, the God of Farming, and the great silver dragon Stella Hisron had acknowledged him as the owner of the 10th Tower, it seemed that only an official certification would truly make him feel like a real building owner.

And it would be satisfying too. Hehehe.

“Should I ask Corruption later?”

Maybe ask him to send over some Ogres and Planet-Destroying Turtles.

Now Sejun was even thinking of making a request to Corruption.

Heh. We’ve gotten pretty close now.

He thought they were close, on his own.

***

Land of Destruction.

“Kukukuk. Where do you think you’re running off to?”

“Eek! Please spare me!”

Corruption caught a fleeing fragment.

Then,

“Hey. Do you think I’m… cute?”

He asked with slightly hopeful eyes, in a shy voice.

But.

“Eek! Scary! Please spare me!”

The fragment went into panic the moment it faced Corruption, completely losing its mind.

“Hey! Who said anything about killing you?! Look at my face properly. Am I cute or not?!”

Corruption brought his grotesque face close to the fragment again and asked.

“Waah! Help me! A monster is trying to eat me!”

The fragment screamed for help in terror.

“Tch. No need to freak out that much.”

I guess the only one who says I’m cute is that guy…

Chomp. Chomp.

Feeling deeply hurt by the fragment’s reaction, Corruption grumbled as he ate the fragment.

“Ah. So boring.”

He no longer found any fun in scaring fragments.

Would he say this expression is cute too?

Instead, he waited for his next meeting with Sejun while practicing his expressions again. For the first time, Corruption spent his time feeling neither lonely nor scared.

***

When Sejun came out of the house,

“Huh?”

Why is there a dimensional gate here?

There was a dimensional gate open right in front of his house.

Usually, the gate connected to the Kamyeoldaeseong was next to the house, so it was only natural for Sejun to be puzzled seeing one right in front of the entrance today.

And next to the gate,

[Sejun-nim, I found Kpies! Let’s go treasure hunting together! – From Paespaes]

There was a signboard that Paespaes had set up.

“Good job, Paespaes.”

Sejun, fumbling at his left shoulder to find Paespaes and,

Pat. Pat.

Gently patted Paespaes’ head.

Then,

“Paespaes, you need more sleep, so let’s leave after lunch.”

He stopped by the 10th Tower to harvest crops.

“Hel-nim, this is my building. It won’t be fun if you leave without paying rent.”

[Hel, the god who lost her divinity, says she understands.]

Sejun flaunted his authority to Hel while also pushing her to pay rent.

After stopping by the Kamyeoldaeseong and returning to the Black Tower,

Thump. Thump.

Pink-fur appeared carrying Cuengi.

“Here.”

Sejun filled Pink-fur’s snack pouch with choco pies and handed it over.

As a result, Sejun used up a lot of chocolate bricks.

But what happens to the chocolate bricks if Hel-nim is gone?

He suddenly started to worry.

At that moment,

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, leave it to me, meow! I’ll try talking to Mud-nim, the God of Mud, meow! Mud-nim, we need 10,000 chocolate bricks, meow!”

Theo raised both paws to the sky and called upon Mud.

[A designated quest has been issued by Sejun Company’s Vice Chairman Park Theo.]

[The designated target is Mud, the God of Mud.]

Mud received the designated quest.

Though Theo had only called Hel until now, he had always been able to issue quests to other gods too. Theo himself was unaware that he was assigning quests to the gods.

Thanks to that, Mud was able to make a direct deal with Theo and fully receive the welfare points that Hel had been siphoning.

A moment later.

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, Mud-nim has sent the chocolate bricks, meow!”

Theo pulled the chocolate bricks sent by Mud out of his bag.

“Well done, Vice Chairman Theo!”

“Puhuhut. I always do well, meow!”

At Sejun’s praise, Theo puffed out his chest and beamed with pride.

And

As expected, my Theo-nim is at his most charming when he’s bragging.

Iona looked at Theo with eyes full of love.

Grrr. Kking! Kking!

[Grrr. Butler! Great Blackie did a lot of good stuff too! Hurry up and praise me!]

On the other hand, Blackie barked furiously, overcome with jealousy, demanding praise as well.

In the midst of all this noisy commotion,

Kurorong.

Baerorong.

Cuengi and Paespaes were sound asleep.

“Guys, let’s eat.”

Kueng!

Of course, Cuengi opened his eyes instantly at the mention of food.

After eating breakfast,

“Hmm. ‘If you enter the place where the brightest tear falls, you can find the treasure’…”

Sejun began deducing the hint about the treasure’s location.

This time, there was no named location or anything like that, just a riddle.

The brightest tear, could it mean a star?

“That’s it! A star.”

He figured that by finding the brightest star in the sky and going to the place where its light shone, he could find the treasure.

After brilliantly(?) solving the riddle,

“Heh. Vice Chairman Theo, did you see that? The deduction of the great detective Sherlock Sejun?”

Sejun bragged to Theo. He knew he would be stepped on, but he couldn’t resist.

And then.

“Meow! Chairman Park’s face looks rotten, meow! Everyone, step on him, meow!”

“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Yes!”

Kueng!

[Dad made a bad face again!]

Kihihit. Kking!

[Hehe. Let’s step on the butler’s face!]

Naturally, Sejun got stepped on by Theo and the others.

Thus, Sejun and his companions spent the whole morning playing together until lunchtime.

“Aileen, what do you want to eat?”

As Sejun and Sejun No. 12 prepared lunch, he asked Aileen what she wanted to eat.

Then.

-Brother-in-law, I want Yonggary Chicken!

Ace’s statue came flying in quickly and shouted his desired menu.

“Yonggary Chicken is my baby brother-in-law’s favorite, so of course I was already making it.”

-Puhihihi. You really are the best, brother-in-law!

Ace was deeply moved by Sejun’s words.

It was surprisingly easy to touch a dragon’s heart.

At that moment.

[The Tower’s Administrator says she wants to eat fried food dipped in tteokbokki sauce.]

Aileen, after a brief pause, mentioned her choice.

Ahh. As expected of my girlfriend. She really knows good food.

“Just wait a moment.”

Responding to Aileen’s words, Sejun hurriedly cooked tteokbokki and made sweet potato fries, vegetable fries, and squid fries.

After that, everyone enjoyed a delicious lunch of what they wanted.

Slurp.

After drinking coffee, Sejun and his group crossed the dimensional gate and arrived in the 7th-level world, <Kpies>.

Then.

“Paespaes, let’s wake up now.”

When Sejun gently woke Paespaes,

(Baahhyawn.)

Paespaes yawned with his mouth wide open.

I want to stick my finger in there.

Sejun wanted to stick his finger into Paespaes’ small mouth, but held himself back. If he did, it would get bitten off.

After Paespaes came to his senses,

(Pip-pip. Sejun-nim, Morgan-nim who lives over there said he’d give us a tour!)

He told Sejun about Morgan.

“Really? Then shall we go on the tour first?”

Because stars come out at night.

Following Paespaes’s guidance, Sejun headed to Morgan’s house.

A short while later.

“What? A star? There are no stars in Kpies.”

“Huh?!”

No stars?!

At Morgan’s response, the honor of the great detective Sherlock Sejun crumbled into the dirt.
