NovelEnglish‘Where should I use this guy? If I meet Ajax directly and order him around, I could be sent straight to the afterlife. Well, I don’t have a way to meet him directly anyway.’
‘I guess I’ll have to give orders through Kellion?’
While Sejun was pondering how to effectively use Ajax,
[Do you want to summon Ajax Mamebe, the farmer of the White Tower?]
A message appeared again.
“What?! No! Absolutely not!”
Sejun exclaimed in surprise. Summon a dragon? Who’s trying to get killed? He couldn’t summon a dragon in a situation where his own safety wasn’t assured, especially a dragon that surely had resentment towards him.
“Meow?! Chairman Park, was it wrong for me to eat two treats, meow?”
Theo, reacting to Sejun’s words, stood up straight and spoke in a dejected tone, misunderstanding the message as if it was directed at him.
“No… No! I wasn’t talking about you, Vice Chairman Theo. Go ahead and eat your churu.”
Sejun fed the churu to Theo’s mouth.
Then,
“Puhuhut, I knew it, meow! Chairman Park would never do that to me, meow!”
Theo, easily cheered up by Sejun’s response, lay back down. Such a simple-minded creature.
“Alright. Now eat up.”
Sejun stroked Theo’s belly as he ate, comforting him.
“Puhuhut. Feels good, meow!”
As Theo continued eating another churu,
Sejun checked the new message.
[You have declined to summon Ajax Mamebe, the farmer of the White Tower.]
[You can remotely give simple instructions to Ajax Mamebe of the White Tower once a day.]
‘I can give remote orders too?!’
[Current tasks you can assign to the White Tower’s farmer]
– Harvest and offer the Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power (0/2115).
“What?! What’s this?”
He wasn’t sure what had happened, but there were over 2,000 elixir cherry tomatoes ready for harvest. Probably because planting in land with strong magic power makes them grow incredibly fast.
“Hehehe. Get to work, Slave.”
Sejun, laughing like a villain, ordered Ajax to harvest and offer the elixir cherry tomatoes.
However,
[Ajax Mamebe, the farmer of the White Tower, refuses your command.]
Ajax refused the command.
[You can punish Ajax Mamebe, the farmer of the White Tower, for refusing the command.]
– Water baptism
– Fire baptism
– Stone baptism
– Tickling
“What?”
The punishments seemed quite trivial considering the opponent was a dragon. The baptisms with water, fire, or stone didn’t seem like they would have any effect.
‘Do dragons even feel ticklish?’
Tickling seemed the most likely to have some effect. After pondering a bit more, Sejun chose tickling as the punishment.
A moment later,
“Oh! Dragons are ticklish too?”
[Ajax Mamebe, the farmer of the White Tower, harvested 1 Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power.]
Ajax began harvesting, letting Sejun know dragons were indeed ticklish.
[1 Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power is offered to Park Sejun, the farmer of the Black Tower.]
[To transport crops weighing 100kg or less from the White Tower to the Black Tower, a transportation fee of 1 million tower coins is required.]
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“What, 1 million?”
[Would you like to transport it now?]
“Why are you even asking? Of course not.”
1 million tower coins for just 1 elixir cherry tomato was way too expensive. Sejun decided to wait and bulk ship. He’d transport when he had a full load.
[1 Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power are stored in the temporary storage of the White Tower.]
[Ajax Mamebe, the farmer of the White Tower, harvested 1 Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power.]
[2 Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power are stored in the temporary storage of the White Tower.]
…
..
.
Thereafter, the elixir cherry tomatoes were stored in the temporary storage. Once Sejun saw Ajax working, he didn’t press further.
Just then,
Cuengi’s snoring sound was heard.
“Are you asleep, Cuengi?”
Sejun quietly called out to Cuengi and looked around the huge sweet potato where Cuengi was,
“Pfft.”
Upon discovering Cuengi, he stifled a laugh. Cuengi, having eaten a large sweet potato and carved a hole inside, was sleeping within the sweet potato.
Munch, munch…
Cuengi, even in his sleep, kept eating the sweet potato. He truly had an insatiable appetite.
“I need to give him a bath.”
Sejun said this looking at Cuengi, whose fur had became sticky and clumped from the gooey residue of the sweet potato. It looked like he had eaten the sweet potato with his entire body.
“Chairman Park, I won’t take a bath! I’m clean!”
At the mention of a bath, Theo quickly began to lick himself all over.
“Alright.”
Sejun, with Theo on his lap, headed back to the cooking area. He needed to keep steaming the rice cakes until tomorrow morning to finish the large rice cake for the birthday party and proudly present it to everyone.
After steaming a few batches, Sejun, waiting in front of the pot where the rice cake was steaming, started to feel increasingly drowsy.
His head started to droop as he began to doze off.
Then,
“Fufufuf——.”
Ggororong.
Not missing the chance, Theo curled up on Sejun’s lap and fell asleep.
***
[The Black Tower’s Tower Farmer, Park Sejun, has ordered: Harvest the Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power and offer it.]
“What?! You want me to personally pick all of those and offer them?!”
Ajax, who hates moving around. And now, he’s supposed to follow someone else’s orders? Especially an audacious order directed at the magnificent White Dragon?
“I refuse!”
Offended, Ajax naturally refused.
[The Black Tower’s Tower Farmer, Park Sejun, sends you the Punishment of tickling for refusing the order.]
“What?! Ha ha ha!”
Suddenly, with the message, Ajax began to feel tickled all over his body. Among the dragons, Ajax was especially susceptible to tickling.
“Hehehe! Ok…okay! I’ll do it! I said I will!”
To avoid the tickling punishment, Ajax decided to follow the order for now.
“Park Sejun! I swear, I’ll kill you! Hey! All of you, pick those now!”
Ajax, grinding his teeth in anger, ordered the monsters around. He had no intention of obediently following the instructions.
However,
[The order has not been followed for 5 seconds.]
[If the order is not followed for more than 10 seconds, the Punishment of tickling will start again.]
The Tower’s system was unexpectedly meticulous.
“Argh! So annoying!”
In the end, Ajax decided to personally harvest the cherry tomato.
“Hmph! I’ll harvest them and eat them myself!”
Judging from the previous events, planting was the problem, not eating.
Pop.
Ajax harvested a single elixir cherry tomato.
[You have harvested the Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power.]
[Your job experience greatly increases.]
…
..
.
In an instant, his rank quickly rose to Grade E, and his harvesting skill level increased to level 2.
“Hehehe. Good. Since it has come to this, I might as well take advantage of the situation.”
Eating the cherry tomatoes would not only fill his stomach but also increase his job grade and skill level. It was like killing two birds with one stone.
Then,
[Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power has been offered to the Black Tower’s Tower Farmer Park Sejun.]
“Huh?”
The cherry tomato in Ajax’s hand vanished as it was offered to Sejun.
“Darn it!”
He was frustrated, but he couldn’t disobey the order, so he just harvested another cherry tomato.
While doing so,
“I’ve found it.”
Ajax found a way to avoid the command without doing the work. It was to lay his hand over the cherry tomatoes without picking them.
“Hey! Hurry up and pick and bring it to me!”
“Yes!”
Thus, Ajax laid on a bed in front of the cherry tomatoes and simply raised a finger while ordering the monsters to pick and bring the tomatoes to him.
And then,
“Ah! Delicious.”
He enjoyed the cherry tomatoes brought by the monsters.
***
“Huh. Did I doze off?”
Sejun, who had been napping, hurriedly wiped the drool from around his mouth and the drool that had fallen on Theo’s back.
Just then,
“Huh?!”
As Sejun turned his body due to the warmth he felt on the right side of his hip,
Ggororong.
Cuengi was asleep, snuggled up to Sejun’s back.
“When did he get here?”
“Meow…”
Sejun gently picked up Theo and placed him on his knee. Approaching the pot and lifting the lid,
Sizzle.
The smell of perfectly cooked rice cakes, along with the steam, tickled Sejun’s nose.
“It’s well-cooked.”
Sejun set aside the finished rice cake and poured new rice cake batter into another pot, then sat down next to Cuengi.
Then,
Krueng…
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCuengi slowly moved and pressed its back against Sejun’s back.
“How cute.”
Sejun patted both Cuengi and Theo’s backs and checked his status window after a long time.
[Park Sejun Lv. 57]
→ Talents: Mediocre All-Rounder, Friend of Nature, Millennium Landlord, Enhanced Magic Circuit, Fire Mastery
→ Stats: Strength(30), Stamina(78), Agility(45), Magic(109)
→ Job: Tower Farmer(B) [Subordinate Tower Farmer: White Tower’s Tower Farmer(F) Ajax Mamebe (Currently following orders)]
→ Skills: Magic Seed Sowing Lv. 6, Harvesting Lv. 7, Seed Shop Lv. 3, Seed Harvesting Lv. 6, Farmer’s Touch Lv. 4, Crop Gigantification Lv. 2, Beekeeping Lv. 8, Rain Thunder Lv. 3, Cooking Lv. 5
Sejun’s status has grown a lot while facing various challenges.
Lately, he has been secretly consuming elixir mushrooms after learning how to hide his scent by eating mushrooms and honey without Cuengi knowing, thus increasing his stats.
Then,
“He’s still following orders?”
Looking at Ajax’s status, Sejun was puzzled.
It made sense that an F-rank couldn’t farm well, but not harvesting around 2000 cherry tomatoes was hard to understand. He should have finished it a long time ago.
When Sejun clicked on Ajax’s name in the status window,
[Current task assigned to White Tower’s Tower Farmer Ajax Mamebe]
– Harvest and offer the Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power (200/115)
The progress of the task Sejun assigned to Ajax appeared.
“Huh? 200?”
The number of elixir cherry tomatoes to be harvested dropped from 2000 to 115, but only 200 were actually harvested. Even after waiting a while, the left number didn’t change.
The harvesting had stopped. Ajax had figured out how to slack off without getting punished.
However,
(200/110)
…
..
.
(200/57)
Contrarily, the number on the right kept decreasing. Sejun, who hated idle workers even in games, was furious to see that this guy was actually stealing resources.
“He’s taking them away!”
Enraged, Sejun went to confront Kellion. In the meantime, the number of cherry tomatoes dropped to zero.
***
“The harvest is over.”
When the cherry tomato harvest was done, Ajax got up from the bed.
“Keep harvesting cherry tomatoes until I return!”
“Yes!”
Ajax, after giving orders to the monsters, left through the tower administrator’s area.
Then,
“How dare you command me?!”
Woosh!
Ajax transformed into his original form and began flying towards the Black Tower. He knew the secret passage Kellion used to enter the Black Tower.
“Park Sejun, just wait. I’ll make you pay for insulting me!”
Just as Ajax, burning with anger against Sejun, was about to enter the secret passage to the Black Tower,
Thud!
“Ugh!”
A majestic black dragon swiftly flew in and punched Ajax in the stomach.
“Who dares to mess with our Sejun?!”
Aileen, enraged, began to beat up Ajax.
