Solo Farming In The Tower

Chapter 334: Bring Back a Hefty Compensation

TL: Hanguk

Kneel, all of you!

Boom.

As Ajaxs magic-filled shout echoed, the soldiers of the Caiman Kingdom found themselves kneeling involuntarily.

And then,

I greet the great White Dragon!

Terrified, one of the soldiers prostrated himself before Ajax, paying his respects.

I greet the great White Dragon!

Other soldiers hurried to pay their respects as well. It was like a collapsing domino effect.

Once the 300,000 soldiers of the Caiman Kingdom were subdued,

Hehehe. Sejun hyung, you saw my power, right?

Ajax looked at Sejun with pride.

Yeah. I saw it well. Seal.

Sejun nodded and sealed Ajax. Ajax, hyung is tired.

Sejun, having hit all stats at 1000 and his resistance to other energies increased by 10%, was less tired than before, but it was still hard.

Hehehe. Now Im the second-in-command, right?

Ajax, now small again, boasted to Theo and Cuengi.

However,

Puhuhut. Thats not possible, meow! If I, Vice Chairman Theo, had used my secret technique, it would have been my victory, meow!

Kueng!

[Thats right! Cuengi also didnt use his hidden technique, Cuengis Destruction Fist!]

Since they hadnt used their full power, neither recognized Ajax as the second-in-command.

Eeek! Im the second-in-command!

No, meow! I, Vice Chairman Theo, am the second-in-command, meow!

Kueng!

[Cuengi is the second-in-command!]

As the three were about to argue about who was the second-in-command,

Kids, go and heal the hedgehogs.

Sejun asked them to treat the hedgehogs.

Then,

Puhuhut. Understood, meow! Hedgehogs come to me, Vice Chairman Theo, who has the best medical skills, meow!

Theo called over the hedgehogs from Sejuns knees and healed them with a healing spell.

Kueng! Kueng! Kueng!

[No! Cuengi has the best medical skills! Cuengi will give a good massage with physical magic power!]

Cuengi moved around among the hedgehogs, healing those that were having difficulty moving with physical magic power massages.

And then,

Snort

Consider it an honor that I am treating you. Recovery!

Ajax treated the critically injured hedgehogs.

The three of them, who had been growling at each other until a moment ago, now worked together so well in treating the hedgehogs according to their condition.

A short while later,

Gurr.

Gurr.

The sound of the hedgehogs snoring en masse filled the chestnut tree farm.

Having been relieved of their pain through treatment, they fell asleep all at once due to the fatigue that had accumulated.

Meanwhile, Theo and Cuengi started collecting signatures on a contract,

Puhuhut. We got a lot of slaves, meow!

Kueng!

[Stamp it!]

They began to collect stamps from the Caiman Kingdom soldiers who had been prostrating until then.

Then,

Meow?

Chuk.

Theo silently extended his front paw to one of the soldiers.

Huh?! What

The perplexed soldier.

Puhuhut. I, Vice Chairman Theo, know you have something! Hand it over quickly, meow!

Theo grinned ominously at the soldier.

Then,

Sigh

Shuk.

The soldier, resigned, pulled out a black orb from his belongings.

Snatch.

Theo snatched the orb from the soldiers hand and ran excitedly to Sejun. Chairman Park, here I come, meow!

And then,

Chak.

Puhuhut. Chairman Park, Ive got something good, meow!

Theo handed the black orb to Sejun.

[King of Caimans Inner Core]

Huh? This is?

It was the inner core that had fallen from Croker upon his death. The soldier had secretly picked it up when it flew towards him.

Meanwhile,

Plop.

Now, rub my belly, meow! Theo lay on Sejuns knees.

Stroke. Stroke.

Sejun silently stroked Theos belly while examining the inner core.

[King of Caimans Inner Core]

This is the inner core that the Kings of Caiman Kingdom have kept through generations.

The magical power of the previous kings has been accumulating in the inner core, containing about 2500 years worth of practice.

Upon consumption, you gain a total of 1000 bonus stats. (If consumed by beings with magic power less than 2500, the inner core will absorb all stats from them instead.)

Upon consumption, your level increases by 5.

Usage Restriction: Lv. 100 or above, All stats 2500 or above

Grade:

Wow Theres something beyond level 100

Sejun realized that there was a level beyond 100 as he read the usage restriction.

But this is impressive.

Sejun remarked as he fiddled with the inner core.

Despite the incredibly high usage conditions, the effects of +1000 bonus stats and +5 levels made it all seem reasonable.

Moreover, it had three stars, which were known to be stronger than SSS grade. It meant it was an incredible item.

Vice Chairman Theo, good job.

Stroke. Stroke.

Sejun praised Theo as he diligently stroked Theos belly.

Puhuhut. Thats it, meow! Work harder, meow!

Theo enjoyed Sejuns touch.

Right, meow! I also picked this up earlier, meow!

Theo pulled out Fenrirs core that he had put in his bag earlier.

[??s Core Fragment]

Is this an unappraised item?

Chuk.

Sejun grabbed the thumbnail-sized core fragment to send it to Aileen for appraisal.

Then,

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

A message appeared in front of Sejun,

Swish.

And a fist-sized brown wooden piece separated from the core fragment.

It was a piece of the door leading to the 10th Tower that Fenrir had torn off and eaten in the past.

Huh?!

What? Was there no door to the 10th Tower?! Sejun was baffled as he examined the brown piece.

[A Fragment of the Door Leading to the 10th Tower]

It is one of the fragments of the door leading to the 10th Tower.

Currently, the door is broken into 5 pieces, making it impossible to create a path to the 10th Tower.

Usage Restriction: The one who holds the key to the 10th Tower

Grade: Unmeasurable

The door broke into five pieces?

So, then that means I have to find 4 more pieces?

This made Sejuns journey to the 10th Tower significantly more troublesome.

At that moment,

Kking!

My core! Hey! Thats mine!

Fenrir, the culprit who made things troublesome for Sejun, woke up and claimed ownership of the core,

Chomp.

and bit the core in Sejuns hand.

However,

Blackie, no, meow!

Whack!

Theo hit Fenrir on the back of the neck to make him spit out the core.

Chuk.

Good job.

Sejun caught the core that Fenrir spat out.

And,

Blackie, you wanted to eat this, huh? Understood.

Shove.

Sejun put a black bead into Fenrirs mouth. It was royal jelly that the Poisonous Queen Bee had upgraded in effect and bitterness.

Kking

This isnt my core

Fenrir ate the black royal jelly and passed out from the intense bitterness. It might have been karma.

Tap.

Blackie, sleep well.

Sejun put the unconscious Fenrir in his pocket,

Aileen, please appraise this.

and asked Aileen for appraisal.

[The towers administrator tells you to entrust it to her.]

Thus, Fenrirs core fragment was handed over to Aileens care.

***

White Dragons Territory.

Thud.

A giant green dragon landed. It was Brachio. She had come to see Kellion, the one she was closest to among the four dragon tribes.

Brachio, what brings you here?

Kellion asked Brachio.

Kellion, I came to ask you something.

Ask me? What about?

Yes. Recently, the activities of the white, black, red, and purple dragons have been lively. Do you know why?

Huh?! Why, you ask? Its just to reduce the power of destruction a bit.

Kellion answered, slightly avoiding Brachios persistent gaze.

Really?

Brachio asked again.

Yes.

Kellion tried to sound nonchalant, but it was clear he was lying.

Then, can you swear on your name?

No. You dont just swear on your name whenever.

Then, in exchange for swearing on your name, Ill grant you two favors.

I dont want to.

As I thought youre hiding something.

I told you Im not! Ahem. I should go to sleep now.

A clear invitation to leave.

Theres something

Brachio, suspicious of Kellions departing figure, went to find Ramter, his next closest friend.

***

Puhuhut. Chairman Park, we got all the stamps, meow!

Kueng!

[Dad, all done!]

After playing on Sejuns lap by himself, Theo, when caught by Cuengi, went back to stamping and has now returned after finishing stamping the rest with Cuengi.

Thanks to the hedgehogs that woke up in the meantime, it didnt take too long.

By the way, Ajax was harvesting chestnuts under Sejuns orders.

Good work. Godori, these guys are yours to command now.

Sejun handed over the 300,000 soldiers of the Caiman Kingdom to Godori.

Kweet!

[Thank you!]

Kweet. Kweet.

Godori and the hedgehogs felt honored by Sejuns words.

But what about the Caiman Kingdom?

As Sejun pondered over what to do with the Caiman Kingdom on the 84th floor of the tower,

Kyoooot! Huh?! Where is this?

Iona, who had been sleeping soundly on Theos tail without knowing anything, stretched lazily and asked after waking up.

The surroundings had completely changed while she was asleep.

Puhuhut. Iona, did you sleep well, meow? This is the 83rd floor of the tower

As Theo explained how they ended up here to Iona,

Kyoo-kyoo-kyoo. Those bad guys! If I hadnt been asleep, I would have dropped a meteor on them. But since the enemy has already surrendered

Iona spoke with a tone of regret after hearing the story.

Puhuhut. Dont be disappointed, Iona! Bad guys will appear again, meow!

Kyoot Kyoot Kyoot. Yes!

As the two were talking,

Guys, lets go back.

Sejun got ready to return.

Although the 83rd floor suffered a lot of damage, with the sturdy 300,000 slaves, it would be quickly repaired.

On top of that, he planned to send Theo to the 84th floor to receive war reparations from the Caiman Kingdom, so there were sufficient funds.

Thus, without realizing it himself, Theo was set to go to the Caiman Kingdom on the 84th floor.

Vice Chairman Theo, have a good trip.

Meow?! Where am I going, meow?

Yeah. Go to the 84th floor and bring back a hefty compensation.

Meow! Understood, meow! Leave it to me, meow!

Initially reluctant, Theo confidently answered. Puhuhut. This is my specialty, meow!

Chairman Park, Ill be off then, meow!

Kyoot Kyoot Kyoot! Ill go too!

Okay. Have a safe trip!

With Sejuns farewell, Theo, with Iona on his tail, cheerfully headed towards the 84th floor.

And then,

Toryong!

Sejun called for Toryong and headed towards the waypoint.

A moment later,

[Moving to the 99th floor of the Black Tower.]

Sejun returned to the 99th floor of the tower.

***

Black Towers Administrator Area.

[1st Seat of Apostle of Destruction, Fenrirs Core Fragment]

This is a fragment of Fenrirs core, the 1st Seat among the Apostles of Destruction.

It contains 0.01% of his total power.

If the power of destruction within is not removed, you will be consumed by it.

Why is Fenrirs core here?

Aileen wondered aloud after the appraisal of the core was completed.

However, that concern was brief,

But in this state, our Sejun cant use it, right?

She began to ponder if there was a way for Sejun to use the core.

And then,

Alright! First, lets try to remove the power of destruction inside!

She started to infuse magic power into the core fragment to eliminate the power of destruction within.

As some of the power of destruction was removed from the core,

Clatter.

Suddenly, tower coins piled up around the core. It worked on the same principle as eliminating the red mist.

Huh?! These are tower coins?! Kehihihi. Sejun, just wait a bit! Ill bring you a lot of money!

Wooong.

Aileen began to use her magic power in earnest to annihilate the destruction in Fenrirs core fragment,

Clatter.

and tower coins began to pile up in the Black Towers Administrator Area.
