Chapter 318 – Sweet Revenge

Stab.

When Se-jun took a roasted sweet potato out of the bonfire and stabbed it with a chopstick,

Smoothly.

the chopstick went smoothly through to the opposite side without any resistance. It was fully cooked.

“Guys, you can eat now.”

Cueng!

[Understood!]

Cuengi answered Se-jun’s words vigorously.

Cueng!

[Take one roasted sweet potato and one roasted potato each!]

“Yeah!”

“Yes!”

Cuengi had Ajax and Veronica hurriedly take one roasted sweet potato and one roasted potato each from the bonfire.

And,

Cueng!

[Now Cuengi will tell you how to eat roasted sweet potatoes and roasted potatoes deliciously!]

“Hehe! Got it!”

“I was waiting for this!”

Ajax and Veronica stared intently at the demonstration of the eating teacher, Cuengi.

While the two were learning how to eat deliciously from Cuengi like that,

Chuck.

Se-jun also peeled the skin of the sweet potato he had stabbed with the chopstick earlier, and

the brilliant yellow roasted sweet potato, emitting steam, revealed itself.

“Ho- ho-“

After Se-jun blew his breath to cool the sweet potato,

Chomp.

he took a big bite.

When the yellow chunk entered his mouth, a deep sweetness along with heat spread all over his mouth.

“Hehehe. It’s delicious.”

Se-jun finished off one roasted sweet potato in an instant.

Rummage, rummage.

He searched the inside of the bonfire again, scouting for a new target.

And,

Chuck.

he pulled out a roasted sweet potato that looked delicious for some reason. It felt firmer than the previous sweet potato. It was a chestnut sweet potato.

“It’s a chestnut sweet potato. This is choking… Ah! Right!”

There was that! Se-jun suddenly stood up as if he remembered something, and

Clack.

hurriedly opened the sub-space warehouse and took out milk.

“Hehehe. Finally, I get to eat sweet potato and milk together.”

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, it is all thanks to me, meow!”

Theo did not miss the opportunity to appeal to Se-jun that it was thanks to him.

“Of course. It is all thanks to Vice President Theo. Hehehe.”

Se-jun stroked the head of Theo, who had done a commendable job.

“Puhuhut.”

Theo hugged Se-jun’s leg as if satisfied and became quiet.

And,

“Guys, try this together too.”

Pour.

When Se-jun poured milk into cups and called Cuengi, Ajax, and Veronica,

[We must try what Dad tells us to try together!]

Cuengi, who had been demonstrating to Ajax and Veronica, ran over first.

“What? You said you were going to show us how to eat deliciously?”

“Indeed. The teacher still has a lot to learn.”

Thanks to that, the reputation of the eating teacher cracked, but

Gulp. Gulp.

Cuhahaha. Cueng!

[Hehehe. Eating roasted sweet potato and drinking this is honey taste!]

Cuengi did not care about such false fame. As long as he could eat delicious things.

“Hehehe. As expected, our Cuengi knows how to eat.”

Se-jun also took a bite of the roasted sweet potato, gulp, gulp, and drank the milk.

The milk seeped into the gaps of the crumbly chestnut sweet potato, cooling the heat of the sweet potato and making it moist.

At the same time, the sweetness of the sweet potato and the creaminess of the milk mixed, making the taste even richer and smoother.

When Se-jun and Cuengi ate the chestnut sweet potato and milk deliciously like that,

Gulp.

Gulp.

“Hyung Se-jun, me too!”

“Lord Se-jun, me too!”

Ajax and Veronica, who had been watching, also swallowed their saliva and hurriedly received milk from Se-jun.

At that moment,

Kking! Kking!

‘I smell something delicious! That yellow and chewy thing!’

Fenrir, who woke up from sleep after smelling the roasted sweet potato.

Jump.

He came out of Se-jun’s pocket, landed on the table, and

Chuck.

sat in front of Se-jun. Give me some too!

And,

Kking?! Kking!

‘You must have seen me, Fenrir, the supreme wolf, saving you, right?! Since I will become stronger when I recover my strength, keep protecting me!’

He took credit for saving Se-jun. Serve well from now on!

However, Se-jun thought Fenrir’s active role was a dream.

“Right. Our Blacky is hungry, were you angry because only we were eating?”

He just thought he was angry because he was hungry.

“Wait a moment. I will make you something delicious.”

Se-jun hurriedly took out Fenrir’s food bowl, put in the chestnut sweet potato he was eating, mashed it, and then poured in milk and mixed it, and

[You have achieved the achievement of making chestnut roasted sweet potato latte for the first time in the tower.]

[The recipe for chestnut roasted sweet potato latte is registered under Cooking Lv. 8.]

[The proficiency of Cooking Lv. 8 increases slightly.]

the messages appeared. Oh! If this is chestnut roasted sweet potato latte?

Se-jun thought that he should make a latte with honey sweet potatoes, which were sweeter than chestnut sweet potatoes, and

“Here. Try it.”

handed the chestnut roasted sweet potato latte to Fenrir.

Kking?

‘What is this? This strange thing?’

A liquid that smelled of that yellow and chewy thing.

Fenrir examined the chestnut roasted sweet potato latte for a moment and then,

‘Right. Since there’s no way that guy would give me something tasteless.’

he decided to trust Se-jun and try eating it.

There was one tasteless thing, but that was only the black fruit that Fenrir himself had asked for.

Lick.

Fenrir carefully touched the chestnut roasted sweet potato latte in the bowl with his tongue.

…!!!

A huge shock felt on his tongue.

‘What is this?!’

Chomp. Chomp. Chomp.

Fenrir licked up the chestnut roasted sweet potato latte greedily, as if a motor were attached to his tongue.

In the meantime,

[You have achieved the achievement of making honey pumpkin roasted sweet potato latte for the first time in the tower.]

…

..

“Hehehe. Finished.”

Se-jun mixed pumpkin roasted sweet potato, milk, and honey to make a Honey Pumpkin Roasted Sweet Potato Latte.

Thinking the sweetness was a little insufficient with just pumpkin sweet potatoes, he added honey to reinforce the sweetness.

Slurp.

Mmh. Sweet. Se-jun poured it into his cup and checked the taste of the Honey Pumpkin Roasted Sweet Potato Latte.

“Aileen, try drinking this.”

Se-jun sent the Honey Pumpkin Roasted Sweet Potato Latte to Aileen.

[The tower administrator says she will enjoy the drink.]

[The tower administrator gets excited, saying it is really delicious.]

“Yeah. Drink it, and if you want to drink more, tell me.”

[The tower administrator says okay.]

Se-jun gave the Honey Pumpkin Roasted Sweet Potato Latte to Aileen first like that.

“Everyone, try it.”

Se-jun poured the completed Honey Pumpkin Roasted Sweet Potato Latte into Cuengi, Ajax, and Veronica’s cups until they were full.

At that,

Cueng!

[As expected, Dad is a genius!]

“Hehe! As expected of Hyung Se-jun!”

“My choice was correct.”

High praise followed as expected.

“Hehehe. Guys, I’ll make you more.”

While Se-jun, pleased by the high praise of the three, was making Honey Pumpkin Roasted Sweet Potato Latte again,

‘It’s not enough.’

Fenrir, who had cleaned out his food bowl, was wandering around and discovered Se-jun’s cup.

‘Keke. I should eat more of his.’

Kkingcha!

Fenrir stood on tiptoe, hooked his front paws on Se-jun’s cup, and

licked it.

He had one lick.

And,

…?!

A huge sense of betrayal rushed in.

‘How could you…? How can you eat something more delicious than me?! I will take revenge!’

Fenrir burned with a desire for revenge.

‘I’m going to eat all of it!’

Chomp. Chomp. Chomp.

Fenrir fiercely ate up the Honey Pumpkin Roasted Sweet Potato Latte in Se-jun’s cup with the sole thought of taking revenge.

‘It’s delicious! It’s sweet!’

Fenrir’s revenge was very sweet. Literally sweet revenge.

While Fenrir was diligently taking his revenge,

Chomp. Chomp. Chomp.

the weight of Fenrir, who ate the Honey Pumpkin Roasted Sweet Potato Latte, became gradually heavier, and conversely, the weight of the cup became gradually lighter.

Due to that, the glass cup began to be pushed by Fenrir’s strength, and

Slide.

the cup gradually moved toward the edge of the table.

Chomp. Chomp. Chomp.

Toddle, toddle.

because of this, Fenrir was distracted, trying to take revenge and keep up with the moving cup.

Slide.

In the meantime, the cup and Fenrir gradually moved toward the edge of the table, and

Tilt.

eventually, the cup that had reached the very edge of the table fell to the floor.

Kking?

Naturally, Fenrir, who was leaning on the cup, fell down together with it.

Clatter.

The cup fell, making a loud noise.

…?!

Everyone’s eyes focused toward the place where the sound came from, and

‘I will take revenge!’

Chomp. Chomp. Chomp.

there, they saw Fenrir licking up the Honey Pumpkin Roasted Sweet Potato Latte spilled on the floor.

Since he had dragon skin, he was perfectly fine even after falling from about the table’s height.

“No! Blacky, that’s dirty!”

Chuck.

When Se-jun hurriedly snatched Fenrir up,

Kking! Kking!

‘You’re bad! Eating delicious things all by yourself!’

Fenrir protested diligently to Se-jun.

“Our Blacky, you are sleepy now. Alright. Let’s sleep.”

Of course, since Se-jun could not understand Fenrir’s words, he thought Fenrir was throwing a sleep tantrum, and

Stroke, stroke.

laid Fenrir down and began to stroke Fenrir’s bulging belly.

Kking! Kking!

‘This isn’t it! My revenge has not ended yet!’

Fenrir rebelled diligently, but

Blink. Blink.

defying Fenrir’s will, his eyelids gradually closed. The effect of the chestnut sweet potato was manifesting.

‘This shouldn’t be… take revenge…’

Burp.

Fenrir, with a final burp, fell fast asleep as his body grew slightly.

And,

“Let’s eat!”

The campfire continued until late.

Sip.

“There’s no moon, nor stars.”

Se-jun, who came outside again after putting everyone to sleep, moistened his mouth with Samyangju and said.

Even as the night deepened, the sky remained just pitch-black.

Although the current atmosphere was good, it was a bit regrettable.

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, don’t worry, meow! I will get you the moon and stars, meow!”

Theo said he would get them without even knowing how big the moon and stars were.

Thanks to that, it wasn’t that the regrettable atmosphere disappeared, but

“Really? Then if you don’t get the moon and stars within a month from now, you will be demoted to Intern Theo!”

he thought of teasing Theo.

“Meow?! I hate that, meow!”

Theo strongly refused Se-jun’s words. I worked hard to climb up to this point, meow! I absolutely cannot go down, meow!

“Hehehe. It’s a joke.”

“Meow! Don’t even say such things as a joke, meow!”

Whether he was sulky, Theo’s voice became slightly sharp.

“Alright.”

Stroke, stroke.

As Se-jun spoke and stroked Theo’s belly,

Roll over.

Theo lay exposing his belly.

“Puhuhut.”

To Se-jun, there was nothing easier than appeasing Theo’s mood.

In that manner, while looking at the deepening night sky and stroking Theo’s belly,

Keeror.

Gororong.

Se-jun fell asleep outside with Theo.

***

Next morning.

Ugh…

Se-jun woke up from sleep, feeling dazzled by the sunlight shining on his eyes.

“Hehehe. I slept well.”

When sleeping outside, it was usually hard to sleep deeply because of the light, but since night was created, he was able to sleep deeply.

Se-jun, who woke up after sleeping soundly like that,

walked around the farm and let the crops hear his footsteps today as well.

And on the way back home,

“Grandfather, did you get it today?”

he saw Kellion and Ajax.

-I’m sorry…

Kellion, who lost face by failing to obtain the land deed for the 83rd floor of the White Tower today as well. These bastards!

Kellion ground his teeth as he thought of the five powerhouses of the White Tower who had disobeyed his command.

“Why can’t you get it? Get it quickly. Hyung Se-jun seems to be angry at me. He won’t even sleep with me anymore. Ehing!”

Ajax was whining to Kellion.

It seemed he thought Se-jun not sleeping at the house yesterday was because of him.

-Don’t worry. This grandfather will definitely get it for you.

“Grandfather, please get the land deed for the 83rd floor quickly. I want to sleep together with Hyung Se-jun.”

Ajax, who even used polite language that he had not used because it was awkward, out of his desperate desire to sleep with Se-jun.

-Uhahaha. Leave everything to this grandfather!

Such efforts of Ajax moved Kellion.

And,

‘What should I do?’

Tier wore a worried expression as he looked at Kellion.

Just in case, he examined the land deeds he had collected in the past, and…

this was because the land deed for the 83rd floor of the White Tower was with him.

However, he could not deliver it directly to Kellion.

If the other dragons found out that he had been collecting land deeds of other towers, he could be expelled from the Black Tower.

At that moment,

“Ah! If it’s that fellow!”

Tier smiled as he looked at Theo, who was clinging to Se-jun’s leg.

“If I drop it in front of Theo…”

Theo would surely pick up the land deed for the 83rd floor of the White Tower and bring it to Se-jun.

‘Since he picks up so many unique things anyway, no one will suspect anything even if Theo picks up the land deed for the 83rd floor of the White Tower and brings it. Good.’

Tier waited for Theo to wander around. He intended to subtly drop it in front of him then.

But,

“Don’t you even go to the restroom?!”

Theo did not leave Se-jun’s lap for a single moment.
