Chapter 359 – I Like the Name Already

“No. Am I not going because I don’t want to? How can I go when there is no door?”

Se-jun, who listened to Stella’s voice message, spoke in an aggrieved voice. It wasn’t as if she had given any help either…

He broke through the trial alone, and was searching for the door alone. Yet, she was only getting angry…

He wanted to just ignore it, but the last voice saying ‘Tell my mom that I’m alive!’ made Se-jun’s heart soft.

The word ‘Mom’ was really…

But there was a problem.

“How do I know Stella Heathron’s mom?”

Even if he wanted to deliver it, since he didn’t know who Stella’s mom was, he couldn’t deliver it.

“Aileen, do you know a dragon named Stella Heathron?”

So he asked Aileen.

But,

[The tower administrator says she doesn’t know well.]

Since Aileen was young, her dragon network was not wide.

[The tower administrator says that looking at the family name being Heathron, Stella seems to be a Great Silver Dragon.]

“Oh! Aileen, that’s great!”

[The tower administrator boasts that such a level is nothing to her.]

Although Se-jun already knew the fact, he made a fuss to make Aileen feel good.

[The tower administrator asks if the name ‘Stella’ is a female dragon’s name, by the way.]

[The tower administrator, with wide eyes, tells you to declare truthfully how you knew the name ‘Stella Heathron’.]

“Ah. That is…”

Since Se-jun was honorable, he told Aileen just as it was.

Then,

[The tower administrator says it is insolent of her to make you pay money while requesting a favor.]

[The tower administrator says she did not doubt you at all.]

Aileen rapidly changed her stance. He knew all about her doubting him.

[The tower administrator says to wait just a moment.]

[The tower administrator says she will unleash her information network to look into the dragon named ‘Stella Heathron’.]

“Sure.”

‘Lord Kaiser will be called over.’ Since it was obvious where Aileen would ask, Se-jun replied with a smile without getting caught.

“Just in case, listen to the voice too.”

Se-jun sent the voice message bead to Aileen.

And after eating the remaining carrot soup, he did the remaining work and fell asleep.

***

Black Tower Administrator’s Area.

“Se-jun, wait just a moment. I will ask Grandfather who ‘Stella Heathron’ is.”

Aileen was trying to call Kaiser as Se-jun expected.

At that moment,

“Aileen, are you busy?”

“Huh? Grandfather Tier?”

Tier, who had purple hair, and a silver-haired woman entered the administrator’s area.

“Aileen, greet her. This is Chrisella Heathron, the leader of the Great Silver Dragon Clan.”

Tier introduced Chrisella.

“Lady Chrisella, hello.”

“Yes…”

Chrisella trailed off. Seeing Aileen, her dead daughter came to mind, and it was difficult to compose her emotions.

“Lady Chrisella, do you know a dragon named Stella Heathron?”

Aileen asked Chrisella. Since if she was the leader of the Great Silver Dragon Clan, she would know all silver dragons.

“How… How do you know that name?!”

Chrisella, who did not expect to hear her dead daughter’s name here, asked in a startled voice.

“Ah. Our Se-jun told me.”

“Se-jun?”

“Chrisella, Se-jun is the Black Tower’s Tower Farmer. All crops sold at the Yong-Yong Market are grown by Se-jun. Aren’t you curious about what kind of crops they sell at the Yong-Yong Market?”

Tier explained in detail from the side, hoping Chrisella would have curiosity about the Yong-Yong Market, but

“But how does a guy named Se-jun know my daughter’s name?”

Chrisella ignored Tier’s words and asked Aileen.

“Our Se-jun is not a guy!”

Aileen got huffy and shouted at Chrisella’s words.

*Pout.*

‘I am angry!’ Aileen puffed up her cheeks like a blowfish to express that her mood was not good.

“Ah. Aileen, I am sorry. I take back the word guy. But how does Se-jun know Stella?”

Chrisella, who was in the position of need, hurriedly apologized and appeased Aileen’s anger.

“That is… Aunt Stella sent this to our Se-jun.”

Aileen spoke, showing the voice message bead Se-jun had sent.

And when Aileen injected mana into the bead,

[Hey! Just what kind of guy are you?! Why haven’t you come to the 10th tower yet?! And tell my mom that I’m alive!]

Stella’s voice flowed out.

“Th-This voice… Stella…”

Chrisella, who recognized the owner of the voice as her daughter in an instant, played the voice message bead several times and listened to Stella’s voice.

“When did Se-jun say he received this?”

“Just a moment ago.”

“Then… our Stella didn’t die and is in the 10th tower…”

Chrisella spoke in a deeply moved voice.

And Aileen looked closely at Chrisella.

‘Khehehe. This is a good opportunity for our Se-jun!’

She felt like she could fill Se-jun’s vault, which she managed.

“Lady Chrisella, our Se-jun spent a lot of money to receive this voice message bead.”

So, mentioning Se-jun’s efforts, she decided to recover the money Se-jun spent to receive the voice message bead.

“Is that so? How much did it cost?”

“10 billion Tower Coins.”

Multiplying it by 10,000 times. Aileen had a grand scale. She was a dragon destined to be very great.

“Yes. I will compensate all of it. No. From now on, whenever a voice message bead comes from Stella, if you deliver it to me, I will give you 10 billion Tower Coins!”

“Chrisella, how about using the Yong-Yong Market as well on this occasion? Since using the Yong-Yong Market helps Se-jun.”

As the opportunity arose, Tier spoke about the Yong-Yong Market again. The Yong-Yong Market VIP was not far away.

“Understood. Since I must repay Se-jun as well.”

Like that, Chrisella became a member of the Yong-Yong Market at Tier’s words.

“Grandma Chrisella, then please sign the contract here.”

While Aileen took out the contract for Yong-Yong Market members and obtained Chrisella’s signature,

-Dehahaha! Se-jun!

“Hmm… Lord Tier?”

Tier woke the sleeping Se-jun and received a 30-day trial of the Yong-Yong Market VIP as a reward for signing Chrisella up for the Yong-Yong Market.

And when he was returning in a hurry to the fountain,

-Tier.

Kellion, who was hiding in the cornfield, called Tier, a fellow General Grade, in a quiet voice.

Of course, that was the story until just a moment ago.

-Kellion, I am a Yong-Yong Market VIP now! Guys, Kellion is here!

Tier called Kaiser and Ramta.

-Tier, you traitor!

‘I was going to become a VIP first and tease him!’ Kellion glared at Tier, who became a VIP before him, and hurriedly hid himself.

***

Red Tower’s 42nd floor.

“Block the Cactuses!”

“Yes!”

At Udon’s instruction, other Dwarf subordinates began to fight the Cactuses, and

[You have planted Bulkong-i’s Fire Bean.]

…

..

.

In the meantime, Udon planted the Fire Beans diligently.

The effect of the Fire Bean was great. As soon as he planted the Fire Bean, the surrounding heat decreased significantly, and desertification progressed no further.

Thanks to that, Udon had descended from the 48th floor of the tower planting Fire Beans, and was currently planting Fire Beans on the 42nd floor of the tower.

At that moment,

“Lord Udon, it’s a Flame Cactus!”

Cactuses approaching while emitting blue, high-heat flames were seen.

“Prepare the fire soldiers!”

“Yes!”

At Udon’s instruction, Dwarfs holding flowerpots in which fully grown Fire Beans were planted stepped forward.

Then,

*Pew! Pew! Pew!*

From the heads of the Fire Beans, they spat out Fire Bean seeds toward the Cactuses.

When an enemy threatening them appeared, the Fire Beans could shoot seeds at the enemy and explode them.

Udon learned this during battle with the Cactuses, and had been carrying them around planted in flowerpots like this since then.

*Boom! Ka-boom!*

Hundreds of seeds collided with the Cactuses and exploded, and in an instant, the Cactuses were wiped out.

And

[Your crop has defeated a monster.]

[You have obtained 10,000 experience.]

[Your crop has defeated a monster.]

[You have obtained 10,000 experience.]

…

..

.

Udon obtained experience for defeating monsters.

“Puhahaha. This is very comfortable.”

Udon spoke with a laugh.

If Se-jun had known that Udon was enjoying sweet benefits with his crops, he would have sent a new variety to Udon immediately.

But Se-jun did not know that Udon was enjoying sweet benefits.

***

“Heave-ho.”

When he opened his eyes,

[Stored 10% of the life force possessed while sleeping.]

[There are 3 Beads of Life.]

[Additional Beads of Life cannot be created.]

Mana has accumulated by 0.1 over 24 hours.

[Mana increases by 0.1.]

The message appeared in front of Se-jun.

“It’s a pity.”

Se-jun said as he looked at the message indicating that he could not create a Bead of Life. Although it was about 0.2%, it was a waste to throw it away.

At that moment,

[The tower administrator says she found out who Stella Heathron is.]

[The tower administrator says Aunt Stella is the daughter of Grandma Chrisella Heathron, the leader of the Great Silver Dragon Clan.]

Aileen, who was just waiting for Se-jun to wake up, informed him of the information she had found out.

“Daughter?”

[The tower administrator says yes.]

[The tower administrator says that from now on, Grandma Chrisella decided to give 10 billion Tower Coins each time you deliver a voice bead message that comes from Aunt Stella.]

“10 billion? Not 1 million?”

Spending 1 million Tower Coins and receiving 10 billion Tower Coins. It was a completely profitable business.

[The tower administrator says Grandma Chrisella said she would also give 10 billion Tower Coins if you could deliver a voice message to Aunt Stella by any chance.]

Along with Aileen’s words, a voice message bead appeared.

It was a voice message bead that could record for 1 hour, which was a higher grade than the one Stella sent.

“I deliver it?”

Is that possible? Since he had never tried it, he didn’t know well.

“Deliver to Stella Heathron of the 10th tower, deliver to the 10th tower, to the 10th tower…”

So he tried saying a few activation words, but there was no response.

“I should eat breakfast.”

Se-jun gave up cleanly and headed to the kitchen.

While he was making breakfast like that,

“Chairman Park, I have returned, mew!”

Theo flew toward Se-jun’s face.

“Sure.”

Se-jun did not avoid Theo and opened his face to Theo. His lips touched Theo’s pink belly.

“Pfffttt.”

“Nyaaa! It tickles, mew!”

Se-jun blew wind into his mouth and detached Theo. As a result of long learning, this was the way to detach Theo with the least effort.

“Vice Chairman Theo, did you do well?”

When Se-jun asked, looking at Theo clinging to his lap,

“Puhuhut. That’s right, mew! I did extremely well, mew!”

Theo spoke boastfully. Although he was boastful usually, today the intensity of his boastfulness was greater. It seemed he had something to rely on.

“Look at this, mew!”

With that, Theo turned his bundle upside down and shook it completely.

Then, gold, Tower Coins, and grape seed oil poured out. He had packed them very shrewdly.

“Good job.”

But there was no way Theo would show such boastfulness with just this much?

While Se-jun, who knew Theo well, was wondering,

“Puhuhut. There are still two left, mew!”

Theo spoke, extending his two front paws, each holding an item. On his left front paw was a black bead, and on his right front paw was a brown bead.

“Fenrir’s core fragment?”

Se-jun said, recognizing the black bead.

“Puhuhut. That’s right, mew! Hurry up and check it, mew!”

“Yeah.”

At Theo’s urging, he grabbed and examined Fenrir’s core fragment, and found that as much as 2% of Fenrir’s power was contained.

If another monster had picked this up… just thinking about it was dizzying.

“Vice Chairman Theo, good job.”

Se-jun praised Theo, stroking his head intensely.

“Puhuhut. I know, mew! I am originally good, mew!”

Theo was just in a good mood at Se-jun’s praise. Indeed, there was not a bit of modesty. Although that was also Theo’s charm.

“Check this too, mew!”

Theo handed the brown gem to Se-jun.

[Earth Gem]

“I like the name already.”

Se-jun picked up the Earth Gem and examined it.
