Solo Farming In The Tower

TL: Hanguk

PR: MiniPixelZ

Inside the car driven by Dong-sik.

Hehehe. Now I get to go on dates with Aileen every day and play with the guys.

While sitting in the back seat, Park Sejun was enjoying the silky touch of Aileen’s skin on his palm and the soft front paw of Theo on the back of his hand, lost in happy thoughts when,

“Teecher-nim!”

“Teecha-nim!”

He heard loud voices warmly calling out to him. The voices of the Children of Creation.

“Huh?!”

Why are you guys here?

As he looked at the children, cracks began forming in Sejun’s happy fantasy.

And then.

[A quest has been triggered.]

[Quest: Before his death, the Creator God entrusted 11 [Children of Creation Tainted by Destruction] to Park Sejun, the Tower Farmer of the Black Tower, as he departed on his final vacation. You must raise the [Children of Creation Tainted by Destruction] in the Creator God’s stead and nurture them into Creator Gods. Furthermore, there are still 17 more [Children of Creation Tainted by Destruction] yet to be found.]

Reward: Granted based on performance

Instead of the cracked happy fantasy, a quest message appeared before Sejun’s eyes.

What the hell. I stopped Destruction, and even knocked some sense into the Primordial God! And now you’re dumping these kids on me and going on vacation alone?

And I still have to find 17 more of them?!

‘Then what about my vacation?! My youth?!’

Even though he understood it was the Creator God’s final amusement with what little lifespan remained, he couldn’t help but feel betrayed.

Just then.

Crash.

“Teecher-nim, Dongdong is here! Dongdong missed Teecher-nim so much, did Teecher-nim miss Dongdong too?”

Dongdong, having torn off the door of Dong-sik’s car, asked with innocent eyes full of joy.

“Argh! It hasn’t even been a week since I got this car!”

Dong-sik despaired as he looked at the fallen car door.

“Dongdong, I told you it’s bad to break other people’s things. Say sorry quickly.”

“Sowwy!”

At Sejun’s words, Dongdong promptly bowed her head and apologized.

As expected, our Dongdong is so polite.

Looking at Dongdong, Sejun smiled contentedly.

“Dong-sik-nim, I’ll get you a new car later. Thank you for the ride. Aileen, let’s get out.”

He expressed his gratitude to Dong-sik and got out through the torn side of the car with the others.

“Yeah. This thing was too slow anyway, it was frustrating.”

Bang!

Aileen grumbled as she kicked the car door open. Thanks to that, both back doors of Dong-sik’s car were now equally gone.

“Sigh….”

“Kids, let’s head into the kindergarten first!”

“Yes! Teecher-nim!”

“Teecher-nim is here!”

“Teecher-nim!”

“Teecher-nim!”

Leaving the sighing Dong-sik behind, Sejun entered the [Kindergarten of Destruction] amid the children’s enthusiastic welcome.

As they entered,

“Huh?”

There stood a single apple tree in the kindergarten yard.

And then.

Peek.

Flamie poked her head out from between the branches of the apple tree.

“Flamie!”

Sejun ran toward the apple tree, calling out to Flamie.

[Hehe. Sejun-nim!]

Boing!

Flamie leapt down from the branch and threw herself into Sejun’s arms. This place was a safe zone. Flamie’s power posed no threat to Sejun here.

Of course, touching was still dangerous, but

“How did you get here?”

[Hehe. The Creator God sent me!]

She had made a deal with the Creator God in exchange for helping to build the [Kindergarten of Destruction], so being inside the kindergarten was fine.

“Really?!”

I guess I should be a little grateful to the Creator God.

[Hehe.]

Thanks to that, Flamie was able to maintain her sickly-beautiful-girl image and happily took her place on Sejun’s right shoulder.

“This house is huge.”

Sejun entered a three-story mansion with a bright yellow exterior.

Then.

[You have become the Director of the Kindergarten of Destruction.]

“Huh?”

A message popped up in front of Aileen.

Sejun severely lacked the magic power required to maintain the kindergarten.

“Aileen, what’s wrong?”

Sejun asked Aileen, who looked perplexed.

“It’s saying I’m the director here.”

“Director?”

If Aileen is the director, then hehe… am I the vice director?

Sejun’s guess was correct. Just one part of it.

[You have become the Vice Director of the Kindergarten of Destruction.]

[You have become the Teacher of the Kindergarten of Destruction.]

[You have become the Nutritionist of the Kindergarten of Destruction.]

[You have become the Gardener of the Kindergarten of Destruction.]

[You have become the Janitor of the Kindergarten of Destruction.]

[You have become the Security Guard of the Kindergarten of Destruction.]

…

..

.

Sejun had a ton of other roles besides just being the Vice Director.

They’re just trying to work me to death!

As Sejun flared up looking at the message,

Growl.

Grrrr.

The stomachs of the Children of Creation rumbled, and they all looked at Sejun at the same time.

“Sigh. Let’s eat first.”

Putting his anger aside, Sejun went into the kitchen.

He took out rice and other crops from his Void Storage and made baby food for the children.

A short while later.

“Kids, it’s time to eat.”

The children eagerly began eating the baby food Sejun had made.

“Puhuhut. As expected, the grilled fish grilled by the great hybrid Chairman Park is the best, meow!”

“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Peanuts too.”

Kuehehehe. Kueng!

[Hehehe. The baby food Dad made is delicious too!]

Kihihit. Kking!

[Hehe. The dried and roasted sweet potatoes butler made are the best, no question!]

“Hehehe. Everything Dad makes is tasty.”

The rest of the group also enjoyed their lunch.

Then.

“Aileen, eat this. I’ve been so busy… it’s late, but happy birthday. Let’s throw a proper party tonight.”

Sejun congratulated Aileen on her birthday, offering her white rice, seaweed soup, and japchae.

“Mm!”

Aileen smiled brightly at Sejun’s words. Since great dragons usually celebrated their birthdays every 100 or even 1,000 years, having someone celebrate her birthday every year like this, especially someone she liked like Sejun, made her genuinely happy.

As everyone was enjoying the meal,

Ptoo. Ptoo.

A few of the children started spitting something out from their mouths.

“What’s wrong? Something weird in there?”

“I don’t like this.”

“Me neither. I don’t like this white stuff.”

They were spitting out the carrots and onions in the baby food.

“You shouldn’t be picky. If you chew them well, they’re fine.”

Sejun tried to persuade the children.

“No!”

“Not eating it!”

The kids shook their heads fiercely and refused.

At that moment.

Whoosh.

Kueng! Kueng!

[Dad’s food is all delicious! No being picky!]

The filial son Cuengi got angry and burst into flames.

“Hic.”

“Eek.”

The children who had just been picky were startled by Cuengi’s rage and quickly started picking up and eating the carrots and onions they had spit out.

That’s because all the picky eaters had once been dragged off and subdued by Cuengi.

Thanks to that, pickiness vanished from the table, and peace returned.

From now on, I’ll leave feeding the kids to Cuengi.

“Hehehe.”

Sejun was satisfied, having delegated a portion of his tasks to Cuengi.

After the meal,

[Nutritionist Park Sejun of the Kindergarten of Destruction has fully fed 11 [Children of Creation Tainted by Destruction].]

[As a reward for feeding them, your lifespan has increased by 11 hours.]

[As a reward for feeding them, you have obtained 1.1 billion Tower Coins.]

[As a reward for feeding them, <Earth>’s evolution experience has increased by 0.011%.]

Reward messages appeared before Sejun.

“Oh.”

The rewards are coming in immediately.

Now this is motivating.

It was a bit of a bait-and-switch trick, but Sejun loved it.

While Sejun was basking in joy,

“Teecher-nim, give me a name like you gave Dongdong!”

“Me too!”

“Me too!”

The children swarmed Sejun, asking for names.

“Alright. Let’s see, you’ll be Shyongshyong.”

“I’m Shyongshyong now!”

Shyongshyong, having received a name from Sejun, excitedly showed off their new name to the other children.

And then.

[Namer Park Sejun of the Kindergarten of Destruction has given the name ‘Shyongshyong’ to a [Child of Creation Tainted by Destruction].]

[The effect of Talent: Namer has been activated.]

[The name ‘Shyongshyong’ has been imbued with a special effect.]

[Shyongshyong’s temperament has become gentler.]

[Shyongshyong’s patience has increased.]

[Shyongshyong will not easily get annoyed.]

[As a reward for naming, your lifespan has increased by 10 years.]

[As a reward for naming, you have obtained 1 trillion Tower Coins.]

[As a reward for naming, <Earth>’s evolution experience has increased by 3%.]

Another round of reward messages appeared.

Oh!

“You’ll be Rangrang.”

Thanks to that, Sejun, now in high spirits, quickly gave the next child a name as well. As expected, several small compliments were more effective than one big one.

“You’re Bongbong.”

“You’re Jjongjjong.”

Like that, Sejun gave names to all the unnamed children in order to receive rewards.

Since he only needed to give them gentle and cute sounding names, it wasn’t difficult at all. Excluding Dongdong, Nangnang, and Mangmang, he finished naming the remaining eight kids in just five minutes.

Meanwhile, a few of the children fell asleep.

(Pip-pip~ sleep well~)

And the rest of the children also fell into deep sleep under Paespaes’ lullaby.

“Let’s stop by home for a bit.”

After confirming the kids were sound asleep, Sejun headed next door.

“We’re home.”

As Sejun entered the house and greeted,

“Oh my! Our babies are home?! Oh my! Even our Aileen is here?!”

Once again, Sejun received the cold shoulder.

“Yes. Hello, Mom.”

“Puhuhut. Kim Mi-ran. Nice to see you, meow!”

“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Hello.”

[Hehe. Hello.]

Kuehehehe. Kueng!

[Hehehe. Grandma, Cuengi is here!]

(Pip-pip. Hello.)

Kihihit. Kking!

[Hehe. Butler’s Mom! Great Blackie is here!]

“Hello, Grandma. I’m Park Taecho, daughter of Park Sejun! I’m 3 years old!”

“Oh my, my granddaughter!”

Kim Mi-ran warmly welcomed Aileen, Taecho, and the others who came with Sejun, and finally,

“Son, you’re here?”

“Yes. The pillar of the household has returned.”

Despite Sejun strongly asserting his presence, it didn’t have much effect.

“I’ve eaten.”

“Then let’s have some tea.”

“Yes.”

Since it was lunchtime, only Kim Mi-ran was at home, and as Sejun drank tea,

“What? Kindergarten?!”

“Yes… it just ended up that way. But well, it’s nice since it’s right next door.”

He explained to Kim Mi-ran that they had moved next door.

While they were chatting,

“Teecher-nim~!”

“Teecher-nim! Why’d you leave Shyongshyong behind?!”

The voices of children calling for Sejun rang out.

“Mom, I’ll come back later!”

Sejun quickly ran back to the kindergarten with his group. If the kids came outside, it would be a disaster. If even one of them started crying and went berserk, an entire city could vanish just like that.

Upon reaching the kindergarten,

104.28.193.250

“Teecher-nim~!”

“It’s Teecher-nim!”

Thump. Thump.

The children, spotting Sejun, slammed the ground hard enough to crack it as they rushed toward him.

If they hit, it’d be instant death-level body tackles, but

“Stop!”

“Stop, meow!”

“Kyoot. Power of Magic…”

Kueng!

(Pip-pip! Stop!)

The group, all of whom had experienced the fragile sunfish Sejun dozens of times, used their abilities to stop the children.

Grrrr.

You almost killed the butler!

Even Blackie growled at the kids in warning. Not that any of them were scared.

And.

“…?”

Only Taecho, still unfamiliar with fragile-sunfish Sejun, tilted her head curiously and watched the situation with interest.

“Alright. Let’s go in.”

After leading the children back inside the kindergarten,

“Okay, from now on I’m going to divide you into classes.”

“Dongdong, Nangnang, Bongbong, you’re in the Cat Class. Follow Teacher Vice Chairman Theo.”

“Puhuhut. I am Teacher Vice Chairman Theo, meow!”

To reduce his workload, Sejun decided to divide the kids into classes and delegate them to his companions.

He needed help since he also had to cook, clean, and do a bit of everything.

Thus, five classes were created: Cat Class, Apple Tree Class, Bat Class, Bear Class, and Puppy Class.

“Puhuhut. Cat Class, follow me, Teacher Vice Chairman Theo, meow!”

[Hehe. Apple Tree Class, gather! If you don’t come quickly, I’ll burn you up!]

(Pip-pip. Bat Class, this way please!)

Kueng! Kueng!

[Bear Class, assemble! If you don’t come quickly, I’ll punish you!]

Kihihit! Kking!

[Hehe. Puppy Class minions! Follow the great Teacher Blackie!]

The Kindergarten of Destruction had officially begun its regular operation.
