Solo Farming In The Tower

TL: Hanguk

[You can no longer increase your stats due to the limit of your potential.]

“That’s a shame.”

Sejun checked the message with a disappointed expression.

The reason Sejun’s stats, which should have increased greatly by borrowing 1% of the stats from the other eight Tower Farmers, barely rose was due to the limit of his potential.

Well, it’s not like it’s gone forever.

The stats were literally borrowed.

When Sejun’s potential increases, he will naturally be able to fill that borrowed amount.

“But how did Udon manage to plant the Scorching Cherry?”

It couldn’t have been Udon himself…

“It couldn’t be Ramter-nim either…”

If Ramter had intended to do so, he would have made Udon plant the seed a long time ago.

So who could it be?

Sejun pondered for a moment.

Let’s ask directly.

“Summon Udon.”

To get the answer directly from the source, Sejun summoned Udon.

Sejun had become strong enough that unless it was a dragon or higher, his life wouldn’t be threatened just by facing them.

[Summoning Udon, the Tower Farmer of the Red Tower.]

After the message appeared, 10 seconds later,

“Was it you?! The one who put different seeds in my seed container?!”

A dwarf, with a height around Sejun’s waist, carrying a giant battle-axe on his back, with a shaggy red beard and lion-like red hair, appeared and shouted at Sejun.

Fwoosh.

Simultaneously, flames emerged from Udon’s body, opening their jaws as if to threaten Sejun.

Then,

“Haaak! How dare you, a mere 100-year temp dare to show anger at our great Hybrid Chairman Park, meow?! I, Hybrid Vice Chairman Theo, will teach you a lesson, meow!”

Theo immediately stepped in to discipline the employee.

Kueng?! Kueng!

[Did you just get angry at Dad?! Cuengi will teach you a lesson!]

Sejun’s bodyguard Cuengi also stepped forward.

“Uh… uh… let’s talk this out…”

Udon was surrounded by two overwhelmingly powerful beings and couldn’t even make a sound as he took a beating.

Kking?! Kking!

[Who do you think you are to threaten my butler?! The great Blackie will teach you a lesson!]

Bang. Bang.

Blackie also joined in, putting in its best effort to beat Udon.

And then,

Udon himself didn’t know.

Watching Udon’s reaction, Sejun realized that Udon also had no idea how he ended up planting Sejun’s seed.

“Return, Udon.”

Sejun dismissed Udon, who was still being beaten by Theo, Cuengi, and Blackie.

Then, who was it?

Sejun once again pondered who could have made Udon plant the Scorching Cherry.

At that moment,

Could it be Bayon?!

An image of Bayon’s slyly grinning face popped into Sejun’s mind.

‘That’s very likely.’

Hehehe. I should compliment him when I go to the Red Tower later.

Feeling that his curiosity was resolved, Sejun returned home with a pleasant smile.

***

The next morning.

Sejun, who had already finished his morning coffee,

“Alright, roll call!”

“Meow!”

Kueng!

Kking!

Dada-da.

At Sejun’s command, his companions quickly lined up in front of him in the order of Theo, Cuengi, and Blackie.

“Good. To the Void Storage!”

When Sejun opened the storage and gave the command, the three of them hurriedly entered the Void Storage.

Once all his companions were inside,

Clank.

He closed the door.

And then,

“Aileen, I’m heading out.”

[The Tower Administrator says to be careful on your journey.]

“Got it.”

After greeting Aileen,

Whoosh.

He opened the Land Deed and disappeared.

Sejun was moving to the 94th floor of the Tower to complete Hamer’s quest to complete the door leading to the 10th tower.

***

[You have arrived at the 94th floor of the Black Tower.]

[You have moved from the 99th floor, the topmost floor, to the 94th floor of the Tower.]

…

..

.

[Due to the effects of the <Title: The One Who Reached the Summit of Five Towers>, you gain invincibility for 1 second.]

Sejun arrived at the 94th floor of the Tower.

Bang!

“Huh?!”

As soon as he arrived, a massive tail struck Sejun.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

[You have received a fatal attack.]

[You are in an invincible state.]

[No damage has been taken.]

Thankfully, he was in the invincible state, so he didn’t take any damage, but…

It still hurts like hell!

The pain was still there. It hurt so much that tears welled up in his eyes.

At that moment,

Clank.

“Great Hybrid Cha… meowww?! Chairman Park, are you crying, meow?!!!”

Who made our Chairman Park cry, meow?!

Theo, who had just launched himself toward Sejun’s face from the Void Storage, saw Sejun’s tears and became furious.

Point.

[Black Drake Mozak, the Ruler of Chikasan]

Sejun quietly pointed at Mozak, who had hit him.

Mozak, who was surrounded by a red mist, had already ascended into the sky, preparing for another attack.

“Haak! Did you make our Chairman Park cry, meow?!”

I didn’t cry though…

Although tears fell because it hurt, he didn’t actually cry. Really.

Anyway, go get him! Vice Chairman Theo!

Swoosh.

Theo instantly changed direction, heading straight for Mozak’s head.

Whoosh.

Mozak attacked Theo with a blade of wind generated by flapping its enormous wings.

However,

“Meow! Meow!”

Theo nimbly evaded the attack, stepping on the air and freely changing directions, thanks to the effect of the <Title: Sky Runner>.

Moments later.

Bang!

Mozak, whose massive size made Theo look like nothing more than a speck, got struck on the back of its head by Theo’s tiny front paw and crashed to the ground.

“Meow! Since you attacked Chairman Park, this is a 1000-year contract, meow!”

Press. Press. Press.

Theo stood on the unconscious Mozak’s head, stamping repeatedly.

[You have subdued Black Drake Mozak, the ruler of Chikasan, who was illegally occupying the coffee tree plantation.]

[You have been recognized as the rightful owner of the land deed for the Coffee Tree Plantation on the 94th floor of the Black Tower.]

[Land Deed Skill: Farm Information Lv. Max is activated.]

At the same time, the Land Deed quest was completed.

“Oh! This is a coffee tree plantation?!”

Now I can harvest and enjoy fresh coffee!

Sejun cheered as he read the messages.

“So, these are coffee trees.”

Sejun was excited as he looked at the surrounding trees.

Kihihit. Kking!

[Hehe. Pull, guys!]

Blackie bit down on the core fragment embedded in Mozak’s chest and tugged.

“Yes!”

Kkiruk!

Shalarang!

“Yes!”

Caw!

Blackie’s subordinates also pulled on Blackie’s fur, assisting in the effort.

And then,

Pop!

Kking!

As the core fragment was finally pulled out, Blackie and its followers rolled to the ground together.

After much struggle, Blackie successfully extracted his core fragment.

Kihihit. Kking!

[Hehe. Butler! Take this!]

Hurry and eat it to grow stronger and make lots of delicious things for me!

With the core fragment in its mouth, Blackie ran to Sejun.

“Oh. Thank you.”

When Sejun accepted the core fragment from Blackie,

[You have acquired a fragment of the door leading to the 10th tower.]

Along with the message, a brown, fist-sized piece of wood separated from the core fragment, and Sejun acquired the fourth fragment of the door leading to the 10th tower.

By defeating Mozak, Sejun had managed to achieve revenge, complete the Land Deed quest, and acquire a piece of the door leading to the 10th Tower-a triple success.

[Fenrir’s Core Fragment (0.5%)]

Theo subdued a 0.5% fragment so easily?!

Sejun was astonished as he stared at the core fragment in his hand.

Remembering that Ajax had struggled with a mere 0.1% core before his awakening, it was clear just how much stronger Theo had become.

When did Theo become so strong?

Sejun suddenly felt a pang of jealousy.

But then,

“Puhuhut. Great Hybrid Chairman Park, I, Hybrid Vice Chairman Theo, have punished the one who made Chairman Park cry, meow!”

Theo ran toward Sejun with a proud smile, and Sejun’s jealousy melted away in an instant.

“I wasn’t crying.”

“Meow?! I clearly saw water flowing from Chairman Park’s eyes, meow!”

“That was rain.”

“It was raining, meow?!”

“Yes.”

Theo believed Sejun’s words unconditionally. He simply accepted that it must have rained, just as Sejun had said.

“Only one more to go. Let’s head to the 59th floor of the Tower.”

“Puhuhut. Got it, meow!”

Sejun and his companions used the Land Deed of the 59th floor to move once again.

***

59th Floor of the Black Tower

“Run away, quickly!”

“If it touches you, it’s over!”

Crackle, crackle.

The residents of the 59th floor of the Tower were fleeing from the advancing ice that was closing in on them.

“This is the right place.”

I can sense Fenrir-nim’s energy here.

A woman with blue skin, who appeared both alluring and cold, spoke in a chilling voice and moved in the direction where Fenrir’s energy was emanating, paying no attention to the fleeing residents.

She was Ice Queen Shasha, the Screaming Banshee and 5th seat of the Apostle of Destruction.

When her fellow solo group members, Fenrir, Krueger, Violet, and Alice, all disappeared, Shasha set out on a journey to find them.

At that moment,

[You have arrived at the 59th floor of the Black Tower.]

…

..

.

[Due to the effects of the <Title: The One Who Reached the Summit of Five Towers>, you gain invincibility for 1 second.]

Sejun appeared in front of Shasha.

Although there was still some distance between them,

Crackle, crackle.

Shasha’s icy aura tried to freeze Sejun.

Shasha had sent numerous fragments of her power into the Black Tower to find Fenrir, and the Shasha in front of Sejun now was only a fragment, possessing just 1% of her original power.

[You have received an unbearable ice attack.]

[You are in an invincible state.]

[No damage has been taken.]

“Huh?!”

Ice?!

“Greenhouse!”

As soon as Sejun saw the message, he quickly activated his skill.

[Greenhouse Lv. 6 is activated.]

[A warm greenhouse is created within a 2 km radius.]

[Your proficiency of Greenhouse Lv. 6 is increasing.]

[Due to the surrounding cold, the temperature of the greenhouse drops significantly.]

“Phew. I survived.”

Shiver shiver.

Shivering, Sejun’s body trembled from the cold. Though the temperature was still below zero, thanks to the Greenhouse skill, he could endure it.

And then,

Clank.

“Meow?! Great Hybrid Chairman Park, why is water coming out of your nose this time, meow?! Are you very cold, meow?!”

Don’t worry, meow! I, Hybrid Vice Chairman Theo, will keep you warm, meow!

Theo, who had come out of the Void Storage, hurriedly wrapped himself around Sejun’s knees, turning into a warm fur coat.

Kueng!

[Cuengi will also keep Dad warm!]

Cuengi clung to Sejun’s side, helping to keep him warm.

And then,

Kking?!

[This is Shasha’s energy?!]

Blackie, who sensed Shasha’s aura from afar, sneezed due to the intense cold, just like Sejun, and snot dripped from his nose.

It’s too cold?

Kking!

[Karurur, take Eomdol and Alice with you to bring Shasha!]

Kkiruk!

At Blackie’s command, Ggomi wrapped Karurur’s body in spider silk, creating a barrier to block out the cold.

With that, Karurur set off, carrying Eomdol and Ggomi away.

Kking! Kking!

[Butler! I’m freezing! I want to go home quickly!]

Blackie barked at Sejun, urging him to put him into the sling bag immediately.

“Alright, alright. Our poor Blackie, you’re cold, huh?”

Sejun quickly picked up Blackie, wiped the snot from his nose, and placed him in the sling bag.

Since it was still cold, Sejun put on a few more layers of clothing.

“But is this a farm?”

As Sejun was examining the neatly stacked piles of grass around him,

Rustle, rustle.

A goblin cautiously poked its head out from the grass pile.

“Huh?! Vice Chairman Theo?”

It was Paku, Scarram’s nephew.

And then,

[A quest has been triggered.]

[Quest: Eliminate or negotiate with the Green Goblin Tribe that is illegally occupying the Perilla Farm, and reclaim the land’s rights.]

Reward: Recognition as the rightful owner of the Perilla Farm on the 59th floor of the Black Tower.

A message appeared in front of Sejun.

“Hehehe. Do you want to negotiate and work here peacefully, or would you rather get beaten and then work?”

Can I finally have some perilla oil?

Sejun, whose mind was now filled with thoughts of perilla oil, grinned like a villain as he looked at Paku and spoke.

“Puhuhut. Paku, quickly bring the other goblins over to get their stamp, meow!”

Theo ordered Paku to bring the other goblins over. By then, the cold had completely disappeared.

“Yes! Of course! I’ll bring them right away!”

What an unexpected windfall! Joining Sejun Company in a group!

Paku, delighted, hurried off to fetch the goblins from the village.

While Paku went to bring the other goblins,

Flap, flap.

Caw!

[Great Blackie-nim, we have brought Shasha!]

Ppiyaak!

[Fenrir-nim! You were here!]

Karurur flew in, accompanied by a blue-colored chick.
