Chapter 372 – I Didn’t Know He Would Plant It Right Away

White Tower Administrator Area.

“Now. Drink!”

“Gahahahat! Yes! Let’s drink!”

Kellion poured Samyangju into Grave’s empty glass with a smiling face.

However, unlike Kellion’s smiling expression, his insides were rotting.

It was natural. He was sharing his blood-like Samyangju with Grave for the third day already.

While waiting for Se-jun to harvest the crops that would revive the dead land, he had brought Grave to the White Tower and was feeding him alcohol…

Before he knew it, the empty Samyangju bottles rolling around the vicinity exceeded 2,000.

‘Drink in moderation! Eat snacks too!’

Kellion sent a murderous gaze at Grave while slightly wetting his lips with Samyangju.

However, this guy, who had no sense of tact, did not even eat snacks and was gulping down raw Samyangju.

In order to make him drink Samyangju slowly, he even brought out the grilled frog legs snack that the White Tower kids enjoyed eating…

Grave, after taking one bite of the frog leg, made a face and was only drinking Samyangju.

Of course, it was a snack that he did not eat either.

However, that was because his taste buds had become high due to Se-jun’s snacks. In the past, he used to eat it often as a drinking snack.

‘But a guy who hasn’t even eaten Se-jun’s snacks…’

Kellion found Grave, who was picky despite not even having eaten Se-jun’s snacks, to be insolent.

While looking at Grave with unfavorable eyes like that,

“Kellion, pour me a glass.”

Grave one-shotted the Samyangju and held out his empty glass. Even the owner only wetted his tongue! A one-shot?! He was truly a tactless guy.

‘Kellion, let’s hang in there! The Yongyong Market VIP is not far!’

Kellion composed himself, releasing his fist that was tightly clenched without his knowledge.

And,

“Uhahaha. Yes. Drink a lot!”

wearing a hospitality smile, he poured Samyangju into Grave’s glass.

‘I should ask Se-jun one more time.’

At the same time, he moved the White Dragon statue to visit Se-jun.

***

99th Floor of the Black Tower.

[You have harvested Cherries of Deep Darkness.]

[Job experience increases very slightly.]

[The proficiency of Harvesting Lv. 8 increases very slightly.]

[You have gained 70 experience points.]

…

..

.

Se-jun harvested cherries from the 2 cherry trees that grew rapidly by using the Elixir of Harvest.

A moment later.

“Hehehe. Finished.”

Se-jun looked at the cherries filled in the basket with a pleased smile.

Thanks to using , the yield doubled, and he harvested almost 4,000 cherries.

And,

[Your soul is filled with gratification from the large yield.]

[Mental Strength increases by 2.]

Mental Strength rose. Material abundance fattened the mind.

“Aileen, receive the cherries.”

After Se-jun sent the cherries for Aileen to eat,

“Shall I eat one?”

he put one cherry in his mouth.

Then,

[You have consumed Cherries of Deep Darkness.]

[A very tiny amount of dark power is stored in the body.]

[Destructive power increases very slightly.]

the messages appeared.

“Good. I’ve become stronger.”

Se-jun, who became “very slightly” stronger, said while swinging his right arm round and round.

And,

Kkirorong.

“Hehehe. Super sunfish Blackie. Now with this, the gap between you and me has become wider.”

Looking down at Fenrir who was sleeping soundly in the sling bag, he felt smug for no reason. Se-jun was so happy because there was Fenrir, who was weaker than him.

Se-jun ate a few more cherries, and

“Now, go to harvest the Light-Watchers!”

went in front of the Light-Watcher flowers that bloomed profusely and began to harvest Light-Watcher seeds.

And following that, after harvesting the Kidney Bean of Soil Fertility,

“Kaiser-nim, here are 3,500 Cherries of Deep Darkness.”

Se-jun visited Kaiser and handed over all the remaining cherries.

-Kuhahaha. Thank you! Take this!

Kaiser handed 3.5 billion Tower Coins to Se-jun. It was 100,000 Tower Coins per cherry.

Having delivered the cherries to Kaiser like that,

“Where should I go to find Kellion-nim?”

when Se-jun was about to look for Kellion,

-Se-jun…

Kellion, who was hiding his body in the cherry tomato field, called the passing Se-jun in a quiet voice.

“Ah. Kellion-nim, I was looking for you just now.”

-Really? Could it be that the crops to revive the dead land are finally prepared?

“Yes. Here they are.”

As Se-jun handed over the Kidney Bean of Soil Fertility,

-Oh! Finally…

Kellion, who got excited upon seeing the Kidney Bean of Soil Fertility, hurriedly swallowed the kidney bean and sent it to his main body.

And,

-Uhahaha. Se-jun, thank you! Aileen!

calling Aileen, he disappeared. He intended to receive the contract from Aileen and contract with Grave immediately.

“…I should give the Light-Watcher seeds a bit later.”

Probably, he would return in a hurry in a little bit to increase his cumulative purchase amount.

Se-jun put the Light-Watcher seeds in his pocket,

[You have consumed a piece of Aileen’s Healthier Fist Meat.]

[You must eat all of the food to activate the effect.]

[75 pieces remaining.]

and simply had lunch with 3 pieces of fist meat that Aileen had made for him.

Sip.

“Kuuu. Nice.”

When Se-jun was resting while drinking coffee after lunch,

“Grandpa Kellion, congratulations on becoming a Yongyong Market VIP.”

Kellion handed over the contract signed by Grave to Aileen and became a Yongyong Market VIP.

-Uhahaha. Thank you.

Kellion, who rejoiced at Aileen’s congratulations.

However,

-What?! I am not the fourth, but the fifth VIP?

Kellion had to hear shocking news.

“Yes. The fourth VIP is Grandma Brachio.”

-Could it be… Brachio brought Artemis?

“No. Grandma Brachio’s cumulative purchase amount at Yongyong Market exceeded 1 trillion Tower Coins, so she became a VIP.”

-What?! You can become a Yongyong Market VIP if your cumulative purchase amount is 1 trillion Tower Coins?

“Yes. Didn’t you hear? Now, if the cumulative purchase amount exceeds 1 trillion Tower Coins, you can become a Yongyong Market VIP.”

-How could that be…

Kellion, who had been hiding, only now found out that the rules of Yongyong Market had changed.

He also learned that if the cumulative purchase amount in a month is 300 billion Tower Coins or more, the Yongyong Market VIP period is automatically extended by 30 days.

And,

-My Samyangju…

what was most unfair right now was the 2,100 bottles of Samyangju drunk to keep Grave held. Grave had drunk 100 more bottles of Samyangju in the meantime.

***

50th Floor of the Black Tower.

Theo and Bpiyot arrived in front of a giant castle following Uren to catch the debtor at the very bottom of the blacklist.

“Lord Theo, here it is.”

“Puhuhut. Is this the place where the guy named Groll is, meow?”

Theo looked at the castle gate with a smirk.

“Yes. Groll is the guy who borrowed 1 trillion Tower Coins from me. At first, the debt was 1 million Tower Coins, but…”

Uren explained how he ended up lending 1 trillion Tower Coins to Groll.

“Strangely, every time Groll put his arm around my shoulder and asked, ‘Do you have money?’, I ended up lending him money.”

“Meow?”

Bpiyot?

Anyone who listened would know he was extorted, but Uren had an expression that said he really did not understand.

“Woohehe. So nowadays, when I meet Groll, I don’t take money with me.”

Uren proudly spoke of his know-how in dealing with Groll with a bright expression.

‘He is such a delicious pushover, meow!’

Theo’s heart shook once again at Uren’s pushover quality. No, meow! If I do this, Chairman Park will hate it, meow!

“Hurry up and guide me, meow!”

He urged Uren, composing his mind.

“Yes! Let’s go!”

Uren stepped forward and knocked on the castle gate.

Then,

“Well. Who is this?! Isn’t this my wealthy friend?!”

Along with heavy footsteps, the giant gate opened lightly, and Groll, a 10m-tall muscular hippopotamus, welcomed Uren.

And,

“My wealthy friend, do you have some money? If you don’t, I think I’ll be a bit disappointed…”

Groll tried to put one finger on Uren’s shoulder. It was not a shoulder-friend, but a finger-friend.

At that moment,

“Puhuhut. Stop, meow!”

Theo shouted, blocking Groll’s finger with his front paw.

“Hmph! This…”

Groll snorted and tried to shake off Theo’s front paw lightly.

“Ugh! What is this strength…”

Groll’s finger was completely unmovable.

“Puhuhut. Groll, do you have money, meow?”

“…I don’t.”

“Puhuhut. Think carefully and answer, meow! If it comes out after a search, it’s 1 hit per 1 Tower Coin, meow!”

Theo began to extort Groll like that.

“I really don’t have any! Search me if you want!”

Groll, who still had not assessed the situation, lied openly and spoke loudly.

However,

“Puhuhut. Don’t lie, meow!”

Theo was no ordinary alley cat. Instantly, he took out the money pouch in Groll’s chest and even checked the amount inside.

“Puhuhut. Since it’s 10 billion Tower Coins, it’s 10 billion hits, meow! Ten Billion Meow Slaps!”

Slap! Slap!

“What?! Ugh…”

Groll fainted after being hit by the Ten Billion Meow Slaps, a new technique Theo had hastily made by slapping 10 billion times.

“I could only hit him 100 million times, meow! What a pity, meow!”

Theo felt disappointed because Groll fainted before he could hit him all 10 billion times, failing to complete the Ten Billion Meow Slaps.

Bbhuhut.

Stamp.

In the meantime, Bpiyot stamped the fainted Groll’s finger on the slave contract.

And,

“Excuse me… Lord Theo, I also want to hit…”

Uren, who gained courage upon seeing the fainted Groll, bought the right to hit Groll 100 times from Theo by giving 10 billion Tower Coins.

“You bad guy! Why am I your friend?! Huh?! How much did I not want to give it to you!!!”

Thud! Thud!

While Uren was diligently hitting Groll, though he had clearly said it was a loan,

“Puhuhut. Found it, meow!”

Theo found Groll’s secret warehouse and split the 1 trillion Tower Coins fifty-fifty with Uren.

“Puhuhut. Guide me to the nearest debtor, meow!”

“Woohehe. Yes!”

Uren, whose mind felt refreshed after hitting Groll, felt confidence surge that he could receive money from any opponent if he was with Theo.

Therefore, he guided Theo to Iguen on the 5th line of the blacklist.

Next to the name Iguen, an amount of 4.3 trillion Tower Coins was written.

***

Sip.

-Se-jun!

As expected…

Se-jun, who was drinking coffee, set down his cup upon seeing Kellion visit him as soon as he became a Yongyong Market VIP.

It was probably to extend the VIP period and become the first VVIP.

Se-jun received 300 billion Tower Coins after selling Samyangju, Black Beans of Transcendence, and other items in addition to the 4,000 Light-Watcher seeds he had prepared.

And,

-You guys! I am here! I am also a VIP now!

Kellion, who no longer needed to hide, shouted in a resentful voice and flew toward the fountain where the other dragon statues were.

When he was about to start afternoon farming after completing the transaction with Kellion like that,

[It has been confirmed that Orik, the tower farmer of the Brown Tower, planted the Kidney Bean of Soil Fertility without permission.]

…

[According to the law of the tower, Park Se-jun, the tower farmer of the Black Tower, will govern Orik, the tower farmer of the Brown Tower, for the next 100 years.]

The messages appeared.

“Ah.”

Come to think of it, when he handed over the Kidney Bean of Soil Fertility to Kellion, he did not give permission to plant it. He absolutely did not intend to make a slave on purpose.

‘I gave it to him just to check, but I didn’t know he would plant it right away.’

Thanks to that, Orik, the tower farmer of the Brown Tower, became Se-jun’s 5th slave.

[According to the job characteristics, 0.2% of Orik’s stats, the tower farmer of the Brown Tower, are borrowed.]

[Strength increases by 10, Stamina by 7, Agility by 17, and Magic Power by 16.]

Subsequently, the message that stats increased appeared.

“Oh dear. What should I do, feeling so sorry.”

Se-jun felt sorry for Orik, the tower farmer of the Brown Tower.

However,

“Hehehe.”

a laugh flowed from his mouth. He was indeed like President Park who governed Vice Chairman Theo the alley cat.

At that moment,

[You have achieved the achievement of governing 5 tower farmers.]

a message that would make Se-jun laugh even louder appeared.
