Chapter 362 – I Wish Rhea-nim Would Come One More Time…

Se-jun first checked the options of the Kidney Bean of Soil Fertility.

[Kidney Bean of Soil Fertility]

[A kidney bean grown in the Black Tower that has absorbed sufficient nutrients and is delicious.]

[Cultivated by a farmer experienced in farming, its taste and efficiency have improved.]

[Especially, it grows well even in dead land, showing outstanding ability to restore the soil fertility of dead land.]

[Upon consumption, muscles are easily built in the body. (However, excessive consumption may cause excessive muscle development.)]

[Cultivator: Tower Farmer Park Se-jun]

[Expiration Date: 150 days]

[Grade: A]

Fitting the name Kidney Bean of Soil Fertility, its ability to restore soil fertility was outstanding.

However, since most of Se-jun’s fields were well-managed and had high soil fertility,

“Oh! You easily build muscles if you eat this?”

Se-jun focused on the consumption option. As soon as he saw it, a buyer came to mind.

It was Earth. Since tens of millions of fitness enthusiasts would eagerly buy it, sales were guaranteed as long as he harvested them.

“Hehehe. It will be a huge hit.”

“Puhuhut. President Park, there is a strong smell of money, meow!”

Theo also agreed with Se-jun’s words.

“Huhut. As expected of Vice President Theo. Sell it well in the future.”

“Puhuhut. Just trust me, meow!”

Thus, Se-jun and Theo smiled slyly as they looked at the brown kidney bean.

“To make money, I must plant it first.”

Se-jun planted the Kidney Bean of Soil Fertility in the remaining space of the Golden Tree Stump Flowerpot of Abundance.

At first, it had a 10x growth speed option, but now, having used up all the power of abundance, the flowerpot struggled to even achieve 2x growth speed.

Until now, Se-jun could not fill the power of abundance with due to the threat to his life,

“Huhut. Now I have the mugwort juice potion and three Orbs of Life.”

Se-jun’s base HP had also increased significantly, and he had two safety nets.

“President Park, I am also ready, meow!”

No. There were three.

Knead. Knead.

Theo was also diligently massaging Se-jun’s leg.

“Be abundant!”

Se-jun held the mugwort juice diluted in water in his right hand, placed his left hand on the Golden Tree Stump Flowerpot of Abundance, and used the authority.

And,

Gulp. Gulp.

[You have consumed Life Mugwort Juice Diluted in Water.]

[HP is restored by 10%.]

[You have consumed Life Mugwort Juice Diluted in Water.]

[HP is restored by 10%.]

He drank the mugwort juice potions in advance, preparing for the HP that would drain.

[The power of directly acts on the Golden Tree Stump Flowerpot of Abundance.]

[The power of abundance fills the Golden Tree Stump Flowerpot of Abundance.]

Se-jun’s HP was consumed, and the authority was activated.

As expected, his HP drained rapidly.

However,

“···!!!”

It was more than he had anticipated. His HP decreased faster than it was replenished by the mugwort juice potions.

[Your HP is depleted.]

[One Orb of Life is consumed.]

Due to the HP decreasing too rapidly, one Orb of Life shattered in an instant, immediately replenishing Se-jun’s depleted HP.

Fortunately, no more HP drained out.

[You have overcome a life-threatening crisis.]

[Due to the talent: Tough Vitality, Stamina increases by 1.]

“Phew. That was a bit dangerous.”

Se-jun breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the message stating that his Stamina had increased by 1 after surviving the life-threatening crisis.

At that moment,

Paat.

The Golden Tree Stump Flowerpot of Abundance began to glow golden again. The power of abundance was charged.

“Hehehe.”

Se-jun transplanted the crops for which securing seeds was urgent into the flowerpot.

Once the work was finished like that,

“Good. Now shall we catch the troublemaker?”

Se-jun tried to find Fenrir, but

“Blacky, here you are?”

in the five-colored bean field, he found Fenrir covering his eyes and ears with a bean leaf, sticking his butt out, and giggling ‘Kkihikit’ as if something was amusing.

“Pfft. Is that hiding?”

Se-jun burst out laughing at the sight of Fenrir hiding. He carefully approached Fenrir and began to poke his exposed butt.

At that,

Kking!

‘I’m going to get caught at this rate!’

Fenrir covered his eyes and ears even more diligently with his front paws. It seemed he thought he could hide as long as he covered his eyes and ears.

“Hehehe.”

So, finding it amusing, Se-jun kept poking his butt. At first, Fenrir flinched a few times, but later, perhaps thinking he hadn’t been caught, he didn’t react.

Kkirorong.

Instead, the sound of Fenrir snoring was heard.

“Blacky, are you sleeping right now?”

It was so absurd that his intention to scold him vanished.

No. His intention to scold him seemed to have already vanished when he was poking his butt.

“You’ll catch a cold at this rate.”

Se-jun picked up Fenrir, who was sleeping with his face covered by the bean leaf, and put him into the sling bag.

As a side note, for the enlarged Fenrir, Aileen had cast an expansion magic on the sling bag, making its internal space 1.5 times larger.

Since expanding it too much might cause Fenrir to get lost inside the sling bag, she had only expanded it a little.

Putting Fenrir in the sling bag like that, and with Theo clinging to his leg, Se-jun walked to the sticky corn field.

On the way, he discovered the road that Peblos had paved with rough gems, which was now empty after all the gems had been collected.

“Still, since we received something… I should at least make a sponsor monument. Shifting Earth.”

Se-jun, who felt bad for no reason about the empty road, struck Myler’s Hoe on the path and used the skill.

Then,

Kugugung.

A square stone rose, filling the 1-pyeong road.

And,

“Vice President Theo, claws.”

“Understood, meow!”

Bbatching.

He grabbed Theo’s front paw,

Scratch. Scratch.

and carved letters in the center of the stone using the dragon claws.

[Peblos Road]

-Peblos, the God of Gravel, who left after giving us gems. He was a good god.

In honor of the sponsor’s (?) achievement, he named the 1-pyeong path Peblos Road.

“Peblos-nim will probably be satisfied with this much, right?”

With a satisfied expression, Se-jun passed Peblos Road and moved to the sticky corn field,

Kke-ek!

Kke-ek!

and the mushroom ants passed Peblos Road, which Se-jun had left, without a single thought.

***

“Be abundant!”

Having arrived at the sticky corn field, Se-jun drank the mugwort juice potion and used the authority on the corn.

When he had used the authority up to the middle of the field like that,

-Se-jun…

Kellion, who was hiding somewhere, appeared and quietly called Se-jun.

“Ah. Hello, Kellion-nim.”

-Yes. Se-jun, do you happen to have a crop that can revive dead land?

Kellion had come to find Se-jun out of concern that there might be no crop for Grave to purchase.

If Grave did not join Yongyong Market because there was no crop to buy, he would not be able to become a Yongyong Market VIP.

“A crop that can revive dead land? Ah… of course there is. A crop that grows well in dead land and restores soil fertility.”

At Kellion’s question, Se-jun thought for a moment and answered while recalling the Kidney Bean of Soil Fertility he had seen earlier.

In the description, it was clearly stated that it grew well in dead land and had an outstanding ability to restore soil fertility.

-Oh! Really?! Euhahaha… I knew there would be one.

Laughing heartily at Se-jun’s reply, Kellion hurriedly looked around and lowered his voice.

“But I don’t have it right now. I just planted it, so you have to wait.”

-What? For how long?

“Well. It will take at least five days, I think.”

-Five days… For that long… I should feed him a bit more alcohol.

“Pardon?”

-Ah. Nothing! Then, keep up the good work. Just you wait, you guys. Now, if I endure just a little longer…

Having heard the answer he wanted, Kellion hid himself again, avoiding the other dragons.

As Kellion disappeared,

“Can’t I get one more of that Golden Box of Abundance?”

Se-jun said, feeling inconvenienced by the slow speed of securing seeds while talking to Kellion.

‘Or upgrade the Box of Abundance.’

Although it was already fast enough, as the number of crops he needed to multiply grew one by one, he couldn’t help but feel regret.

“I wish Rhea-nim would come one more time…”

Se-jun recalled Rhea, the Goddess of Abundance, for a moment.

“Be abundant.”

[ is applied to the sticky corn.]

[The amount of the next fruit to be harvested from the sticky corn doubles.]

He used the authority again to increase the yield of the sticky corn.

Thus, drinking the mugwort juice potions, Se-jun used up all the authority on the corn in the sticky corn field.

“Be abundant.”

Finally, he also raised the soil fertility of the field, and

“Now I should prepare dinner.”

He headed to the kitchen to cook.

A moment later,

Bbyak!

[Uncle, we are back!]

Kkueng!

[Dad, Cuengi is back-da-yo!]

The Black Rabbit and Cuengi, who had received special training from the Bull Demon King, returned together in a friendly manner.

And,

[The slave of the White Tower wishes to return, stating it is off-work hours.]

[The slave of the Purple Tower wishes to return, stating the work is finished.]

Messages sent by Ajax and Veronica, expressing their desire to return, appeared. Everyone knew the dinner time like magic.

***

Seed Shop Main Store.

[Tower Farmer Park Se-jun of the Black Tower has built a shrine for you.]

[Divine Power increases by 15.]

…

..

.

[5 mushroom ants, tenant farmers of Tower Farmer Park Se-jun of the Black Tower, have passed by your shrine.]

[Divine Power increases by 0.0005.]

“Park Se-jun, to think you built a shrine for me…”

Peblos, who was glowing faintly due to the increase in Divine Power, was touched as he looked at the message.

Peblos Road, which Se-jun had made to honor sponsor Peblos.

Because it was registered as Peblos’s shrine, since then, every time someone walked by the road, Divine Power was entering Peblos.

“To think Divine Power can rise in such a way…”

For Rhea and the non-combat gods, who had grown their Divine Power only through Tower Coins until now, this was an extremely shocking event.

“I’m envious…”

“So envious…”

Thanks to that, Peblos received all the envy of Rhea and the non-combat gods.

Receiving Park Se-jun’s prayers too.

Having Park Se-jun build a shrine for him too.

And even the sweet Divine Power received from that shrine.

“I also want to have a shrine built by Park Se-jun…”

While Rhea looked at Peblos with envious eyes,

[Tower Farmer Park Se-jun of the Black Tower wishes for your descent.]

[Divine Power increases by 2.]

A message appeared in front of Rhea.

“Oh. Park Se-jun wishes for my descent?!”

Rhea, the Goddess of Abundance, rejoiced as she saw the message. Above all, she was particularly pleased that her Divine Power had risen by 2. To wish for my descent by as much as 2!

To be precise, he wanted her to come and give him one more Golden Box of Abundance or upgrade it, but since he did wish for her descent anyway…

“Since Park Se-jun is waiting for me, I must personally prepare for the descent. Farming King!”

Rhea hurriedly delivered an oracle to her believer, the Farming King, instructing him to go find Tower Farmer Park Se-jun of the Black Tower.

This time, she was planning to ask him to build a shrine for her too.

***

Black Tower 4th Floor.

‘O Rhea, the Goddess of Abundance. Today as well, I worked hard to…’

The Farming King, who grew grapes today as well, made wine, sold it to hunters, and made money, prayed to Rhea.

On Earth, because Halpas had summoned all the locusts only to be annihilated by the Golden Bat, the locusts had gone extinct.

Therefore, although the demand for the Sturdy Blade Green Onion had decreased significantly, the vampire leeches remained, so the demand for wine was steady.

At that moment,

-My child.

Rhea responded to the Farming King’s prayer. Should I pray once every two days?

When the Farming King, who felt burdened by Rhea responding to his prayers too frequently lately, was thinking that he should reduce his prayers a bit,

-The time has come!

‘The time…?’

Even though it hasn’t been long since I returned after meeting Se-jun-nim?

When Rhea mentioned the time again, the Farming King asked in a slightly anxious voice. He had a sad premonition that he would have to go find Se-jun again for some reason.

And,

-Indeed. Since Park Se-jun wishes for my descent, go find Park Se-jun immediately.

Sad premonitions were never wrong. The Farming King packed the holy oil, grape seed oil, and went up the tower.
