Chapter 551: My Flamie is So Adorable.
TL: Hanguk
2nd floor of the Black Tower.
“Kyung-chul, take this.”
Sejun handed the Divine Relic of the God of Hunting, the Relentless Hunter’s Bow, to Kyung-chul, who was feeling down after being called an uncle by Flamie.
“Huh? What’s this?”
Kyung-chul, puzzled, received the bow.
“Oh. Wow. Whoa!”
As he examined the bow, Kyung-chul couldn’t help but repeatedly exclaim in awe.
It was natural.
This was a Divine Relic crafted directly by a god, something Earth’s Hunters had never even seen.On top of that, it was an SSS-grade item with no usage restrictions and even had an amazing skill called Homing Wind Arrow that could pursue enemies to the end.
“Sejun, seriously, thank you. But… is it really okay for me to use this Divine Relic?”
Distracted by the item, Kyung-chul expressed his gratitude but also asked with a worried voice.
Using a Divine Relic not only required overcoming its usage restrictions, but also winning the favor of the god, and he had heard gods could be very picky.
“It’ll be fine.”
“Puhuhut. Kyung-chul, don’t worry, meow! If Hunt acts up, just tell me, meow!”
“Uh, got it.”
Kyung-chul completely trusted their words.
“Sejun, what are you going to do now?”
Kyung-chul asked Sejun about his plans.
To be precise, he wanted to go shoot the bow right away, but he couldn’t just leave Sejun after he had come to see him, so he was asking as a courtesy.
“Us? We’re going to plant some green onions here before moving up. Don’t worry about us, go ahead. It’s fine.”
Hehe. Kyung-chul, I can tell just from your face that you’re dying to go shoot the bow.
Seeing how happy his gift made Kyung-chul, Sejun spoke with a smile.
“Really?! Are you sure?”
“Yeah.”
“Thanks!”
“Take care, and see you next time.”
“Yeah. You too, Sejun!”
With Sejun’s permission, Kyung-chul hurried off to hunt.
“Shall we plant some green onions?”
Sejun began planting green onions with his group.
A while later.
“Alright.”
Kyung-chul, wandering the 33rd floor of the tower, spotted a swarm of spider monsters. He nocked an arrow onto the bowstring and pulled.
But then,
“Urgh!”
No matter how hard he pulled, the bowstring wouldn’t budge.
At that moment,
[Hunt, the God of Hunting, is furious that someone with such meager abilities dares to use his Divine Relic.][Hunt, the God of Hunting, orders you with a chilling voice to return his Divine Relic to Sejun immediately.]
Hunt spoke to Kyung-chul in anger.
He thought Sejun had lost his bow.
“…But Sejun gave this to me. And Theo said if Hunt acts up, I should tell him.”
Kyung-chul responded in a meek voice.
Then,
[……]Hunt suddenly fell silent.
[Hunt, the God of Hunting, urges you to start hunting immediately, asking what you’re doing when there’s prey around.][Hunt, the God of Hunting, asks you to please tell Sejun-nim and Theo-nim that he was helpful.]
Hunt soon changed his stance, urging Kyung-chul to actively use the Divine Relic and politely asking him to say good things about him to Sejun and Theo.
“Well, we’ll see based on how you act.”
Kyung-chul realized once again how amazing Sejun was based on Hunt’s reaction.
My buddy is the best!
With a little influence from his powerful connection, Kyung-chul began to rise as the strongest on Earth.
***
Puk. Puk.
[Hehe. This is fun!]
Flamie said as she placed seeds into the holes that Sejun had dug.
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. Great Blackie will cover them!]
Pababak.
Then Blackie quickly covered the holes where Flamie had placed the seeds.
Thus, Sejun, Flamie, and Blackie worked together in perfect harmony, planting green onions.
However,
“Puhuhut. Meow meow meow -meow!”
Kuehehehe. Kueng!
[Hehehe. Cuengi can plant quickly too!]
Seeing Theo and Cuengi planting green onions at an incredible speed, Sejun was hit hard with a sense of reality.
There was no way he could match their speed.
Isn’t this a bit much?! I’m the Tower Farmer!
As expected, the answer was pure physical ability.
At that moment,
[A Guard has created a 33,000 square meters field of Sturdy Blade Green Onions.][You have gained 50,000 experience points.]
A message appeared before Sejun.
“Hehehe.”
No, wait. I almost missed the point.
Sejun realized what was important.
Just befriend those with good physical abilities.
Sejun quickly assessed the situation objectively and resumed planting green onions.
After coming to his senses and planting green onions again for about an hour
[You have achieved 100% farm restoration.][You have completed the quest.]
[You are recognized as the rightful owner of the Land Deed for the Green Onion Farm on the 2nd floor of the Black Tower.]
[Land Deed’s Skill: Farmland Information Lv. Max is activated.]
At last, the 2nd-floor farm was completed.
Kyuui?!
“What?! We have to stop working?!”
Hamsters and people who suddenly lost their jobs were furious, but that would be Ssibal the 18th’s problem to handle.
There was still the grape farm on the 4th floor of the Tower, and Sejun had instructed them to start restoring the 3rd floor in advance. There were plenty of places to work.
“Let’s head up now. Guys, get into the Void Storage.”
Leaving Ssibal the 18th surrounded by angry hamsters and people, Sejun quietly vanished, unfurling the Land Deed for the 89th floor of the Black Tower.
It was too early to return home since he hadn’t created any special memories with Flamie yet.
***
99th floor of the Black Tower, inside the Wizard Tower.
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. I finally finished all the work I had fallen behind on during my closed door training!”
Iona exclaimed as she jumped up while tightly hugging the heart-shaped furball Theo had made for her.
Then,
Kyuui!
Kyuui!
The hamsters of Hamk, thinking their work was also done, cheered together.
Iona, who had come separately from Sejun, also returned separately and brought back five hamsters with talent for magic.
She wanted to bring more, but five was her limit due to her abilities.
At that moment,
“You’re smiling? You think this is funny?!”
I’m so fed up! If you so much as touch me, I’ll bite you!
Blackster was scolding them fiercely.
Though his black body made him hard to see, Blackster had been handling all the work alone, and now his dark circles were so bad they nearly reached his knees.
Kyuui…
Kyuui…
As the rookie hamsters endured Blackster’s scolding,
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Blackster, you’ve worked hard, so I’ll give you a three-day vacation. Go.”
Iona granted Blackster a vacation and disappeared to find Theo.
And then,
“Hehehe. What, you can smile? Shall we go eat? I’ll treat you to something delicious.”
On his vacation, Blackster transformed into a gentle senior and led the hamsters to the cafeteria.
***
[You have arrived at the 89th floor of the Black Tower.]…
..
.
“Huh? It’s cold?”
Why is it cold?
Sejun hurriedly looked around.
It’s all ice.
The transparent ground he was standing on, no, it turned out to be a massive frozen lake.
It won’t break, right?
Thud. Thud.
Sejun tapped the ice with his foot.
Fortunately, the ice was quite thick.
While Sejun was surveying the surroundings,
Clang.
“Puhuhut. Great hybrid Chairman Park! I missed you, meow!”
As the Void Storage opened, Theo jumped at Sejun’s face, and
[Hehe. Sejun-nim, I missed you too!]
Flamie, who had been riding on Theo’s head, also shouted.
It’s warm.
Thanks to Theo’s fur, Sejun’s face felt warm.
Kueng!
Kking!
Next, Cuengi and Blackie also dashed out and attached themselves to Sejun’s body, making him feel as if he was wearing a furry coat.
After his companions came out of the Void Storage,
“There’s no message about me becoming the landowner?”
Then that must mean something’s here, right?
Sejun carefully walked across the ice-covered lake, hoping for a quest to appear, trying not to slip.
Of course, that didn’t last long.
Shwoong.
“How’s this? I’m moving without falling, right?”
Sejun quickly slid across the ice, gliding smoothly.
At that moment,
Rumble.
Suddenly, the ground trembled.
“Huh?”
When Sejun looked down, he saw countless fish gathering beneath his feet, so dense that the ice below appeared pitch black.
And then,
[A quest has been generated.][Quest: Other life forms are dying because of the Ice Piranhas occupying the Ice Lake. Reduce the population of the Ice Piranhas to protect the lake’s ecosystem from collapse.]
Ice Piranhas (0/100,000)
Frost Giant Piranhas (0/1,000)
Super-Giant Piranha, Ruler of the Ice Lake (0/1)
Reward: Recognition as the rightful owner of the Ice Lake on the 89th floor of the Black Tower.
A quest appeared before Sejun.
“Ice Piranhas?”
They want me to catch 100,000?
On top of that, there were also 1,000 Frost Giant Piranhas and one Super-Giant Piranha.
“Puhuhut. This is exciting, meow!!!”
Thanks to this, Theo was already thrilled.
“Let’s make a hole first.”
Sejun drew his sword.
“Magic Swordsmanship!”
After infusing it with magic power, he worked hard to make holes about 1m in diameter in the ice.
But Sejun had overlooked one thing.
“Huh?!”
Why is this so deep?
The ice was much thicker than Sejun had anticipated.
When the ice thickness exceeded 10 meters, Sejun began to feel something was wrong.
But smashing all the ice could risk breaking the entire lake.
Of course, breaking all the ice wouldn’t be a big problem, but,
“That won’t do.”
I want to show Flamie ice fishing.
Sejun didn’t want to ruin this moment.
“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, I, Vice Chairman Theo, will make the holes for you, meow!”
Ppaching!
Theo extended his dragon claws and
Scrape.
He drew a clean circle with his front paw on the ice,
Thud!
A perfectly circular piece of ice 1m in diameter was cleanly cut.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Kueng!
Kugugung.
Next, Cuengi used telekinesis to lift the cut section of ice and toss it aside.
The ice was nearly 30 meters thick.
No wonder it hadn’t cut through easily.
Sejun finally understood why he couldn’t manage it on his own.
“Vice Chairman Theo, make three more holes.”
“Puhuhut. Understood, meow!”
After Theo made three more holes and the ice fishing spot was ready
“Alright, everyone, from now on, we’re only catching piranhas using fishing rods! Got it?”
Sejun handed out fishing rods and began hosting an ice-fishing competition.
There were no prizes, but,
“Puhuhut. I, Hybrid Vice Chairman Theo, will definitely win, meow!”
[Hehe. I can do well too!]
Kuehehehe. Kueng!
[Hehehe. Cuengi will catch the most, you know!]
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. Great Blackie will be first!]
Everyone was highly motivated.
After all, anything with Sejun was always fun.
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. Ggomi! Make a net!]
Kkiruk!
“Blackie, that’s cheating! If you do that one more time, you’re disqualified.”
Kking…
Caught trying to use a net to catch the piranhas, Blackie reluctantly picked up a fishing rod again.
“I caught one, meow!”
2a09:bac1:40c0:10::1d6:d8
Kueng!
All they had to do was attach a chunk of slime meat to the fishing line. Since the target was piranhas, they bit the bait as soon as it entered the water.
Every time they pulled up the fishing rod, dozens of piranhas, devouring the slime meat, were hauled up with it.
[Hehe. Sejun-nim, we got one too!]
“Alright. Let’s pull it up.”
[Yes!]
At Flamie’s call, Sejun and Flamie lifted their fishing rod together.
Since Flamie couldn’t lift the fishing rod alone, Sejun was assisting her.
In the case of Blackie family,
Kihihit. Kking! Kking!
[Hehe. Got one! Everyone, pull!]
“Yes!”
Kkiruk!
Sharalarang!
“Yes!”
Kkak!
Ppiyak!
Mumu!
Ppuu!
Everyone worked together to lift the fishing rod.
After about three hours of fishing, the sun began to set.
“Let’s stop for today.”
Sejun ended the competition.
Ice Piranhas (10,013/100,000)
They had caught about 10,000 piranhas.
The rankings were- Theo in 1st place with 4,500 fish, Cuengi came in 2nd by a small margin, Flamie was 3rd with 900 fish, and Blackie family took 4th place.
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Theo-nim, congratulations on 1st place!”
“Puhuhut. My victory was only natural, meow!”
Iona, who had arrived midway and wrapped herself around Theo’s tail to nap, rubbed her eyes and congratulated Theo.
“Time to eat dinner.”
Sejun took out wooden planks from the Void Storage to block the heat transfer, layered them on the ground, and then placed stone slabs on top.
And then,
Fwoosh.
He started a campfire and began grilling the piranhas.
[You have defeated a Ice Piranha.][You gained 100 experience points.]
…
..
.
The piranhas must have still been alive, as they released experience points while being grilled.
While the piranhas were cooking,
“Vice Chairman Theo, cut the ice into brick-sized pieces.”
Sejun asked Theo to cut the ice.
Since he planned to ice fish here for a few days, he decided to build an igloo.
“Puhuhut. Got it, meow!”
Theo cut the ice, shaping it into bricks as he had done earlier when making the fishing holes.
Kueng!
Kking!
Sejun then started building the igloo using the ice bricks that Cuengi and Blackie had brought over.
Having built igloos many times before, the structure was quickly completed.
And then,
“Alright. Come inside.”
Sejun and his companions finished their fulfilling day eating grilled fish inside the igloo.
“Flamie, isn’t this amazing? We’re sleeping on top of a lake. These are all memories.”
Sejun was trying to forcefully create memories for Flamie, but,
[Heheh. For me, everything has been a cherished memory ever since I met you, Sejun-nim.]
Sniff. My Flamie is so adorable.
In the end, it was Sejun who felt moved and realized he was the one creating memories.
