Solo Farming In The Tower-Novel

TL: Hanguk

“Park Sejun-nim, is this how it’s done?”

Veronica asked as she wrapped sweet potatoes and potatoes in grapevine leaves.

The cooking had briefly paused with the appearance of Veronica.

When Sejun started cooking, Veronica said she would help by his side,

“Then, please do this.”

Sejun had her make roasted sweet potatoes and potatoes.

“Yes. After making them like this, just put them in the fire.”

Sejun said as he threw what Veronica made into the fire.

“Yes! Leave it to me!”

Thus, Sejun entrusted the cooking of the roasted sweet potatoes and potatoes to Veronica.

Climbing atop the giant hearth, Sejun put tower coins into the Artifact: Rice Dough that Devours Wealth,

Chaaa.

And began pouring rice flour into the boiling crab-shell pot.

Since rice flour could be endlessly produced with money, Sejun planned to use rice flour as the main ingredient for his cooking.

The menu he decided on was fish porridge and locust porridge.

They were easy to make and could be produced in any quantity.

“Cuengi, bring out the fish.”

Kueng!

[Understood!]

Responding to Sejun, who was busy pouring rice flour, Cuengi fetched the prepared fish from the void storage and dropped them into the crab-shell pot.

Splash. Splash.

A moment later,

Chaaa.

Sejun began pouring rice flour into another crab-shell pot.

Then,

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, I’ve arrived, meow!”

Slap.

Theo clung to Sejun’s knee and spoke.

“Vice Chairman Theo, have you already finished the contract?”

“Puhuhut. Yes, meow!”

Theo, who had missed Sejun’s knee even for a short while. I want to go to Chairman Park, meow!

He wanted to go to Sejun, but there were still hundreds of thousands left for the slave contract.

It would take hours to go to Sejun like this. This won’t do, meow!

So, Theo immediately put those who had just become slaves to work on writing the contracts,

The more slaves they signed, the more slaves they had, and they were done in no time.

Thus, Theo returned to Sejun’s knee.

“Vice Chairman Theo, welcome back.”

Sejun warmly greeted him. It was just the right timing for Theo to return when he was needed.

“Puhuhut. Did Chairman Park miss me, meow?”

“Yes. Please chop this finely.”

Sejun said as he threw the frozen locust meat into the crab-shell pot from the void storage.

“Puhuhut. Leave it to me, meow!”

Clang.

Theo unsheathed his dragon claws,

“Meow meow!”

And diced the locust meat flying into the crab-shell pot.

“Here we go!”

“Come on, meow!”

As Sejun threw the locust meat and Theo diced it finely, repeating the process,

“What’s this?!”

Veronica, who was wrapping sweet potatoes and potatoes in grapevine leaves, felt a chilling premonition.

A premonition that made her hair stand on end.

Veronica stood up and turned her head towards the direction of the premonition.

“Could it be?! Those are dragon claws?!”

Veronica was shocked to discover the black claws on Theo’s front paws.

Dragon claws?! Dragons never give their body parts to insignificant beings.

I’ve never received such a thing…

Veronica envied Theo’s claws.

However,

Tens of thousands of dragon scales engraved with Dragon Skin magic.

Hundreds of Dragon Warrior helmets.

Bracelets made from dragon horns.

If Veronica, who used to get nagged at by Tier Peten every day, had seen the items Sejun received from dragons, and soon, the dragon blood from nine dragon tribes,

She couldn’t have even imagined it.

“Puhuhut. How’s Vice Chairman Theo’s skill, meow?!”

“Our Vice Chairman Theo is doing great!”

“Puhuhut. Of course, meow! Chairman Park, throw it quickly, meow!”

As Theo was finely dicing the locust meat with Sejun’s encouragement,

-Khuhuhuhu. He’s here.

-Euhuhuhu. It’s Tier, as expected. He came running right away.

-Phuhuhuhu. Since the Tower Farmer was taken… Well, let’s hurry and watch.

The dragon statues all stopped at once.

“Kaiser, how dare you!!!”

Tier Peten, the leader of the purple dragons, flew swiftly towards the Black Tower.

“Have you arrived?”

Kaiser greeted Tier as he came out.

“Arrived?! You dare say that after stealing my Tower Farmer?!”

Tier was even more infuriated by Kaiser’s composed demeanor.

Kaiser had a lot of pent-up frustration from Tier’s constant nagging, intentionally provoking him.

And then,

Goooo.

As Kaiser anticipated, the enraged Tier gathered his energy, ready to confront him.

However,

“What are you talking about? Stealing the Tower Farmer? Your Tower Farmer came to seek asylum on his own.”

Kaiser, with a tone of injustice, further incited Tier’s anger.

There was no reason for him to be angry as he was already winning the situation.

Of course, that only made Tier more infuriated.

“What?! You think I would believe that?! It’s clear to me that your Tower Farmer kidnapped our Becca!”

Tier believed that Sejun had infiltrated the Purple Tower to kidnap Veronica.

But that was a statement made out of ignorance of Sejun’s capabilities.

“No, it’s not like that. Veronica used the land deed to come here herself. Oh?! Here come the witnesses.”

“What?! Witnesses?”

As Tier looked around at Kaiser’s words,

“Euhuhuhu. Witness 1 is here.”

“Phuhuhuhu. Witness 2 has arrived.”

Kellion and Ramter, who came to watch the enraged Tier, approached with laughter.

And then,

-Kaiser is right. She came to the Black Tower on her own.

-Yes. And Veronica stated herself that she sought asylum without any coercion.

Both confirmed the truth of Kaiser’s words.

“How could our Becca…?”

Tier was shocked by the words of the three dragons.

“I… I need to go into the tower and talk to Becca myself.”

Tier thought it was necessary to talk to Becca directly.

However,

“No.”

Kaiser flatly refused.

Tier might harm Sejun,

‘Then the competition would increase.’

One more competitor wanting to buy Samyangju and black beans.

Shaking their heads, Kellion and Ramter seemed to agree with Kaiser from behind.

Just then,

“Grandpa! What are you doing?!”

Aileen appeared.

Aileen, sensing something off about Kaiser’s actions from a distance,

‘Is our Sejun’s customers being kicked out?’

Rushed over after Kaiser rejected Tier’s proposal.

And then,

“Greetings. Tier Petten~nim, leader of the Purple Dragons. My name is Aileen Pritani, and I’m the administrator in charge of the Black tower.”

Aileen politely greeted Tier.

“Oh. The granddaughter is better than the grandfather.”

Seeing Aileen treating him with respect, Tier mocked Kaiser.

However,

“Khuhuhuhu. Of course. My granddaughter is so outstanding.”

It didn’t work on Kaiser at all. Indeed, the doting grandfather Kaiser.

“Our granddaughter, you see…”

“Ahem. Grand. Fa. Ther.”

Aileen hurriedly stopped Kaiser, who was about to boast about her.

And then,

“Tier-nim, to enter the Black Tower, you need a dragon statue and a contract promising not to kill anyone inside.”

Aileen explained the conditions for entering the Black Tower to Tier.

“A dragon statue and a contract?”

“Yes…”

Aileen explained why the dragon statue was needed and the content of the contract.

“Understood. Then, I’ll go make a dragon statue first!”

Tier hurried back to the Purple Tower to create a dragon statue.

“Ah. Tier-nim, just in case, bring a lot of tower coins too!”

Aileen shouted towards Tier as he flew away.

Aileen was always kind to Sejun’s customers.

“Vice Chairman Theo, good work.”

“Puhuhut. That’s right, meow! I did work hard, meow!”

Theo proudly praised himself in response to Sejun’s words and then,

Plop.

Jumped off Sejun’s knee and went to the front of the Creator God’s Tablet.

And then,

Shashashak. Shashashak.

He began to sharpen his dragon claws on the Creator’s Tablet, honing the edges of his claws.

Why the Creator’s Tablet, you might ask?

Only something as hard as the Creator’s Tablet can sharpen dragon claws.

“Puhuhut. I always need to take good care of my dragon claws, meow!”

Shashashak. Shashashak.

While Theo diligently sharpened his claws on the Creator God’s Tablet,

“Um… where did you get that?”

Veronica approached, looking enviously at Theo’s dragon claws.

“Puhuhut. Jealous, meow?!”

Theo asked with a smug voice, pleased with himself.

“Yes! I’m so jealous! How did you get them?”

“Puhuhut. These dragon claws were given to me by Lord Kaiser, meow!”

Theo boasted proudly, flaunting his dragon claws.

“What?! Directly by Lord Kaiser?!”

Veronica was astonished by Theo’s words.

Not just any great black dragon, but Kaiser, the leader of the great black dragons, gave him his claws?!

“How… how did you receive them?!”

Veronica asked excitedly.

“Puhuhut. Because I am Chairman Park’s right hand, meow!”

“Really?! That’s amazing!”

‘If I dedicate myself to Sejun-nim, ready to lay down my bones here…’

Veronica imagined becoming Sejun’s left hand and receiving dragon claws.

“I’ve finished them!”Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs novelenglish.net . Fir(e).nᴇt

Sejun had completed the fish porridge and locust porridge.

“Cuengi, please move this over there.”

Kueng!

[Understood!]

Cuengi carried the crab-shell pot with both front paws,

Thump. Thump.

And moved it to where the party participants were gathered.

“You guys, move these.”

Kkwek!

Sejun asked the mushroom ants to move the fruits.

The persimmons Sejun had harvested himself, and melons, bananas, peaches brought by other animals.

And then,

He used the skill to enlarge the cherry tomatoes and grapes.

While the mushroom ants were moving the fruits,

“Crop Gigantification.”

Sejun enlarged about 1000 magical cherry tomatoes,

“Now, it’s time to enlarge the grapes.”

As he took out a few bunches of vitality-infused fragrant grapes to use Crop Gigantification,

Kking!

‘Black fruit!’

Fenrir, who had been watching Sejun, rushed towards the grapes.

“Blackie, no!”

Sejun quickly raised his hand holding the grapes to stop Fenrir.

He remembered from YouTube that grapes were one of the foods dogs shouldn’t eat.

Of course, Fenrir didn’t understand Sejun’s words,

Kking! Kking!

‘Hey! I sat down! Give me the black fruit!’

Squat.

Fenrir sat down obediently in front of Sejun, expecting the grapes. Are you going to give them now?

‘No choice then.’

It would be troublesome if this happened every time he took out grapes.

Swoosh.

Pretending to pick a grape, Sejun took out a piece of black royal jelly instead.

And then,

“Here. Take this.”

He gave the black royal jelly to Fenrir.

Kking!

‘Black fruit, mine!’

Fenrir, oblivious to the switch from grapes to black royal jelly, was blindly fixated on the ‘black fruit.’

Nom.

Fenrir bit into the black royal jelly.

And then,

Kking…

‘Endured it…’

Trying to withstand the bitterness, he fainted.

‘Sorry. But it’s for your own good.’

Smirk.

Despite feeling sorry, Sejun couldn’t help but smile.

Squat.

He picked up Fenrir and laid him down in the bedroom before returning to his work.

Just then,

“Um… Sejun-nim, may I try one of those?”

Bewitched by the fragrant smell of grapes she was experiencing for the first time in her life, Veronica looked at Sejun with earnest eyes and asked,

“These grapes?”

“Yes.”

“Alright. Go ahead and eat.”

Sejun cheerfully handed five bunches of vitality-infused fragrant grapes to Veronica.

“Thank you!”

Nom.

Veronica expressed her gratitude to Sejun and ate the grapes.

“Oh my!”

Veronica was amazed as she tasted the vitality-infused fragrant grapes.

Having always eaten tasteless food filled with poison in the Purple Tower,

‘There was food that tasted like this?! The Black Tower is the best!’

One more reason not to want to return to the Purple Tower arose.

And then,

‘I guess I won’t be able to eat this if I go back to the Purple Tower, huh?’

It became even harder for Tier to bring Veronica back to the Purple Tower.
