Solo Farming In The Tower

Chapter 429: I Love You, Sejun!



Chapter 429: I Love You, Sejun!

TL: Hanguk

“Great Black Dragon! I’m sorry! Please forgive us just this once!”

“Puhuhut. Not a chance, meow! You guys are now Chairman Park’s slaves, meow!”

What on earth is happening?

Kyung-chul was bewildered as he saw dozens of black bears kneeling before Sejun, with a yellow cat scolding them.

A moment ago, Kyung-chul was waiting for Sejun after selling all his goods and organizing his stall.

There was a commotion caused by the Black Bear Gang, but he didn’t pay attention, fearing he might get entangled with them.

However, even after waiting for over 30 minutes, Sejun did not show up.

‘Could it be that Sejun got into trouble with the Black Bear Gang?’

With a worried heart, he headed towards the place where the Black Bear Gang was gathered.

And there, Kyung-chul witnessed an unbelievable scene.

Who were those black bears?

They were the Black Bear Tribe that ruled the 64th floor of the Tower, a group so powerful that even the Phoenix Guild, the strongest force on Earth, pretended not to see their atrocities.

But…

‘My colleague Sejun made those black bears kneel?’

Until now, Kyung-chul had thought that the ‘Park Sejun’ who was the strongest on Earth and had saved the world by cultivating crops, was just someone who happened to have the same name as his company colleague Park Sejun.

The colleague who worked at the same company, ate together, and drank coffee together couldn’t possibly be that ‘Park Sejun’.

So, he also assumed that the cat hanging on Sejun’s leg was just a doll of the wandering merchant Theo.

Wandering merchant Theo’s doll, along with Paespaes, was currently one of the most popular characters on Earth, and he himself owned a Theo doll.

Although he was too embarrassed to hang it on his leg.

But then,

“Stamp it, meow! Anyone who doesn’t will get another hit from me, Vice Chairman Theo, meow!”

The Theo hanging on his colleague Sejun’s leg was not a doll. It was talking and even getting paw prints on a contract from the black bears.

Is my colleague Park Sejun really that ‘Park Sejun’?!

“Oh my God!”

Realizing that his colleague Sejun was the strongest person on Earth, Park Sejun, Kyung-chul got goosebumps all over his body. His heart swelled with pride.

‘I’m colleagues with Park Sejun!’

Just this fact alone would easily get him a million likes on Stargram.

While Kyung-chul was excited about getting likes on Stargram,

“Kyung-chul!”

Sejun called out to Kyung-chul.

The strongest person on Earth, who made the Black Bear Gang kneel, and his colleague, called out to him in front of other hunters.

I love you, sejun!

“Y-yes… Sejun…”

Is it okay for me to call him like this?

As Kyung-chul hesitated to answer,

“Take this.”

Sejun approached Kyung-chul and handed him the [Longbow of Infinite Arrows] he had just purchased.

“This is the Longbow of Infinite Arrows?!”

Kyung-chul recognized the bow immediately.

Its market price was 1000 Tower Coins, an item he couldn’t even dream of, having barely paid off half the loan he took to buy a ticket.

“Take these too.”

Sejun also gave Kyung-chul the items that had been appraised by Aileen while making rounds at the street stalls.

“Sejun, why are you giving me these?”

“It’s payment for the apples.”

“The apples?”

Kyung-chul seemed to have forgotten about the apples he gave to Sejun, but it didn’t matter.

Whether the other person intended it or not, I was greatly indebted thanks to him.

“Yeah. Thanks to the apples you gave me, I got a great family member.”

Because I met Flamie.

So expressing my gratitude meant that I cherished Flamie that much.

“I don’t remember, but I’m glad it helped you. Still, taking all of this is…”

As Kyung-chul tried to refuse the items other than the bow,

“Sejun-nim!”

From afar, Han Tae-jun and Kim Dong-sik came running, calling out to Sejun.

– Theo Park appeared on the 1st floor of the Tower!

– Wow! He’s really cute! Come quickly!

Hunters who recognized Theo during the clash with the Black Bear Gang took pictures with their hunter phones and shared them with other hunters, spreading the news.

This information also reached Kim Dong-sik, who was moving to explain the current situation to the hunters trapped in the Tower with Han Tae-jun.

And then,

“Ah?! Master, it’s Sejun-nim!”

Seeing Sejun next to Theo, Han Tae-jun and Kim Dong-sik hurried over.

Had they been even 10 minutes later, hunters from other countries might have contacted Sejun first.

“Meow! Han Tae-jun, Kim Dong-sik, nice to see you, meow!”

Theo greeted them happily, raising his front paws as Han Tae-jun and Kim Dong-sik approached.

“Hello”

Sejun also greeted them awkwardly. To think he was greeting Han Tae-jun, Korea’s strongest hunter.

Although he greeted much more formidable dragons every day, greeting Han Tae-jun made Sejun more nervous.

“Sejun-nim, we’ll escort you. Let’s go.”

“Okay.”

They intended to guide Sejun to the Korean Awakeners Association branch on the 1st floor of the Tower.

“Alright. Kyung-chul, I’ll go for leveling up with you later.”

“Huh? Um…”

Ah, I’m dying of embarrassment. I actually told Sejun I’d help him level up…

Kyung-chul recalled their conversation from a few hours ago, replying in a flustered voice.

But,

“Wow! Park Sejun said he’d help him level up later!”

“I’m so jealous!”

The people around didn’t think Kyung-chul was the one helping with leveling up and chatted excitedly, making Kyung-chul even more embarrassed, unable to lift his head.

***

Click.

Han Tae-jun entered his room in the Korean Awakeners Association branch and,

“Greetings to the Earth Defense Force Commander and Deputy Commander! I am codenamed Captain K.”

He suddenly saluted Sejun with military precision.

“I am codenamed K-6!”

Kim Dong-sik followed Han Tae-jun’s lead, saluting Sejun as well.

“Puhuhut. Great job, everyone has worked hard, meow! I am the Earth Defense Force Deputy Commander codenamed Yellow, meow! No! I’ll change it to Gold, meow!”

Theo accepted their salute, but they didn’t lower their hands, waiting for Sejun, their superior, to accept it.

That’s right. I am the Earth Defense Force Commander.

“I am codenamed Black Dragon.”

Sejun accepted their salute, making up a codename on the spot.

“No, meow! It’s Great Black Dragon, meow! Don’t leave out the ‘Great’, meow!”

“Alright. Great Black Dragon. Satisfied?”

“Puhuhut. That’s right, meow! Chairman Park is the Great Black Dragon, meow!”

After finishing their codenames introductions,

“Then, I’ll brief you on the Earth’s current situation.”

Kim Dong-sik stood up and explained the current state of the Earth.

A short while later,

“What?! Flesh Eaters?”

Sejun was shocked by Kim Dong-sik’s explanation.

Sejun had thought that locusts were extinct and leeches were almost dealt with due to the vitality-infused fragrant grapes.

The news that the entire state of Texas in the U.S. had been taken over by monsters called Flesh Eaters was startling.

“The Flesh Eaters first appeared in the Black Tower, and we suspect Michael McLaren, the chairman of the global food corporation Gagel, to be behind it. Michael is currently…”

“Puhuhut. Don’t worry, meow! Now that Chairman Park is here, it’s all over, meow!” freewebnoveℓ.com

“Yeah, don’t worry.”

Sejun also spoke confidently, sure that his strength would be effective on Earth.

“I’ll take care of the monsters in America, too.”

Hehe. I’ve never been to the U.S. before, so I should do some sightseeing while I’m there.

Sejun, excited at the thought of touring America,

“So, are you heading out immediately?”

“No. I need to train the black bears and stabilize the market before I go.”

Sejun followed Han Tae-jun, putting the black bears into his Void Storage. Cuengi would be bored, so he left the bears for Cuengi to train.

And since Earth couldn’t be integrated into the 0th floor of the Black Tower until tomorrow morning, he couldn’t leave even if he wanted to.

He had tried briefly to exit through the official Tower exit earlier,

[Black Tower Farmer cannot leave the Tower.]

He couldn’t leave.

“Hunter-nim, did your exit disappear by any chance?”

“What?!”

As a result, he was misunderstood by a staff of the Korean Awakeners Association.

“Ah. Then we will go ahead and prepare the private jet for your trip to America and contact Sejun-nim’s family in advance.”

“Yes. Thank you.”

Ending the conversation that way, Sejun left the Korean Awakeners Association branch.

Clank.

Sejun cautiously opened the Void Storage slightly.

“Cuengi, have you finished the training?”

He asked, peering inside.

Kueng! Kueng?!

[Yes, that’s right! Correct?!]

When Cuengi, holding a club, looked at the black bears,

“Yes! We have become completely good! We are very good black bears now!”

“We have decided to become the Kueng gang that does not do bad things anymore!”

Kueng gang?

Cuengi, I told you to train them, not form a gang.

As Sejun looked at him with worried eyes,

Kueng! Kueng!

[That’s right! Our Kueng gang does not do bad things! If anyone does bad things, this is what happens!]

Cuengi made a motion of hitting with the club, causing the black bears to tremble.

104.28.193.250

Scary.

Even Sejun shivered. He didn’t think they would harbor any ill intentions.

“Alright. Follow me.”

“Yes.”

Sejun led the reformed Kueng gang’s black bears to organize the market.

“Land Moving!”

Sejun created stalls on half of the market area where they could do business, leaving the other half for hunters to trade as usual.

“Puhuhut. For now, if anyone attack you, get their stamp, meow!”

“Yes! Get the seal stamp if they attack!”

Meanwhile, Theo was educating the black bears on how to handle anyone who disrupted business or caused trouble.

Just then,

Clatter.

A thousand skeleton mages from the 4th floor of the Tower arrived.

“Now, here you will appraise the items brought by the hunters and sell them at reasonable prices.”

Sejun deployed them to the stalls.

With this, a 24/7 shop specializing in buying hunter items was established on the 1st floor of the Black Tower.

Initially, hunters would sell directly, but eventually, they would realize that selling here at a fair price and going hunting was more profitable.

As the market’s business preparations were completed, the surroundings darkened.

Sejun had a simple dinner, then went into the Void Storage to sleep with Theo, Black Rabbit, Cuengi, Paespaes, and Blackie.

The next morning.

Clank.

Sejun woke up, left the Void Storage, quickly washed up, and was inspecting the market when,

[The tower administrator says that Earth’s integration into the 0th floor of the Black Tower is complete.]

“Really?! So where’s the exclusive passage?”

[The tower administrator says to head straight north from where you are.]

“Got it!”

Following Aileen’s words, Sejun moved north and saw a black hole in the ground.

“So this is the exclusive passage.”

Alright. Let’s go.

As Sejun reached out towards the black hole,

[Currently, six people are attempting to use the exclusive passage.]

[Do you wish to pay the stay fee for six and move to the 0th floor of the Black Tower?]

A message appeared.

“Yes.”

When Sejun answered, the calculation for the stay fee began.

[Calculating the stay fee considering Theo Park’s stats and class.]

[The stay fee is 400 billion Tower Coins per hour.]

[Calculating the stay fee considering Black Rabbit’s stats and class.]

[The stay fee is 300 billion Tower Coins per hour.]

[Calculating the stay fee considering Cuengi Park’s stats and class.]

[The stay fee is 500 billion Tower Coins per hour.]

[Calculating the stay fee considering Paespaes Park’s stats and class.]

[The stay fee is 300 billion Tower Coins per hour.]

It was expensive, but within the expected range.

And now, the only ones left were the weakest, Sejun and Blackie. In other words, the two who would cost the least.

However,

[Calculating the stay fee considering Park Sejun’s stats and class.]

[The stay fee is 100 billion Tower Coins per hour.]

[<Power: Sturdy Young Dragon’s Solid Bones> confirmed.]

[An additional 1 trillion Tower Coins per hour will be added to the stay fee.]

“What?!”

Hey!

The price suddenly skyrocketed from an unexpected factor.

Still, if he sold all the jewels he had, he could probably manage to stay for 10 days.

While Sejun held onto a thread of hope,

[Calculating the stay fee considering Blackie Park’s stats and class.]

Blackie’s stay fee, the last in order, was calculated.

[The stay fee is 100 million Tower Coins per hour.]

Hehe. As expected, it’s the lowest.

Our cute Blackie.

As Sejun was pleased looking at Blackie, who cost the least,

[<Bloodline: Noble Wolf> confirmed.]

[An additional 1 quadrillion Tower Coins per hour will be added to the stay fee.]

[<Power: Noble Wolf’s Spirit> confirmed.]

[An additional 500 trillion Tower Coins per hour will be added to the stay fee.]

[<Power: Born Hunter> confirmed.]

[An additional 100 trillion Tower Coins per hour will be added to the stay fee.]

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.

[<Power: Faster than Light> confirmed.]

[An additional 900 trillion Tower Coins per hour will be added to the stay fee.]

..

.

The messages kept appearing endlessly.

“What the?!”

As Sejun screamed in frustration,

Kking! Kking!

[Ahem! This is how great I am! This is the power of me, the great Blackie!]

Blackie was proudly showing off, completely oblivious to Sejun’s feelings.
