Solo Farming In The Tower

Chomp. Chomp. Chomp.

“Our Blackie, you eat well. Want one more?”

As Sejun took out another dried sweet potato slice while watching Fenrir eating enjoyingly,

Kking!

‘Give me that one too!’

Fenrir putting down the dried sweet potato slice he was eating, now eyed Sejun’s dried sweet potato slice.

He thought since he had already licked ihis own, nobody else would eat it.

However,

Kueng?!

[What’s this? A dried sweet potato?!]

Nom.

Cuengi, who woke up from sleep and was hungry, quickly picked up the dried sweet potato slice that had fallen on the floor and ate it.

And

Kikiihik. Kking…

‘Heehee. Now I have two yellow and chewy ones…’

Having received the dried sweet potato slice from Sejun, Fenrir turned around only to find Cuengi eating his own.

Kking!!!

‘How dare you steal the yellow and chewy thing belonging to me, Fenrir, the 1st Seat Apostle of destruction and the god-hunting wolf!!!’

Fenrir was furious.

Kking! Kking!

‘Hey! He ate mine! punish him!’

Fenrir appealed to Sejun, expressing its grievance.

“Cuengi ate Blackie’s? Then you can just eat a new dried sweet potato slice. Cuengi, have one more.”

Kuehehehe.

Kikiihik.

By giving Cuengi and Fenrir one dried sweet potato slice each, Sejun neatly resolved the situation.

While Sejun was giving dried sweet potatos to Cuengi and Fenrir,

Kkwek!

Kkwek!

Crunch. Crunch.

The Mushroom Ants began to mill the rice that Sejun had harvested.

“Thanks, guys.”

Tap. Tap.

[You have harvested Shiitake mushrooms.]

[Your job experience increases very slightly.]

[Your proficiency in Harvesting Lv. 8 has increased very slightly.]

[You gained 1 experience point.]

Sejun expressed his gratitude while picking mushrooms off the backs of the Mushroom Ants.

A little later.

“Hmm hmm hmm.”

Sejun hummed through his nose, carrying the milled rice and mushrooms to the cooking area.

Today’s menu was mushroom nutritious rice¹버섯영양밥.

He planned to add a fried egg and side dishes as accompaniments.

In addition to mushrooms, he added ginkgo nuts and chestnuts to the nutritious rice.

After Sejun put the rice on,

“Soy sauce… with Cheongyang chili peppers and crushed garlic…”

He began making the sauce.

Just then,

Tap.

“Hyung… what’s for breakfast today?”

Rubbing his still-sleepy eyes, Ajax flew over and clung to Sejun’s shoulder.

“Mushroom nutritious rice. Wanna taste this?”

Sejun responded, dipping his pinky finger into the sauce and putting it into Ajax’s mouth.

Smack.

“Hyung! It’s delicious!”

“Really? The rice is almost done. Just wait a bit.”

“Okay…”

Arolorong.

Still drowsy, Ajax fell asleep hanging on Sejun’s shoulder.

Pat. Pat.

Sejun patted Ajax’s back as he waited for the rice to finish.

Meanwhile,

Kueng! Kueng!

[Blackie, sit! If you listen well, I’ll give you this!]

Cuengi was trying to make Blackie sit in exchange for a dried sweet potato, aiming to make him his subordinate.

However,

‘I, Fenrir, am a noble wolf. Once I decide on someone who feeds me, I don’t change easily.’

Fenrir firmly closed its eyes to maintain its loyalty (?) to Sejun. Not looking.

Kueng?

[This is something Blackie likes, why aren’t you doing it?]

While Fenrir was refusing the dried sweet potato that Cuengi was waving,

“Everyone, let’s eat!”

Sejun called them.

Kueng! Kueng!

[Got it! Blackie is coming too!]

Responding to Sejun’s call, Cuengi hurriedly picked Blackie and rushed to the cooking area.

And

“You mix in this seasoning sauce to eat.”

Kueng! Kueng!

[Got it! Thank you for the food!]

“Yes! Hyung! Thank you for the food!”

“Yes, Sejun~nim, Thank you for the food.”

Having heard Sejun’s explanation, Cuengi, Ajax, and Veronica started to mix the sauce into their mushroom nutritious rice and began eating.

Kuehehehe. Kueng! Kueng!

[Hehehe. It’s really tasty! There are also chestnuts in it!]

“Sejun hyung is a genius!”

“Wow! Sejun~nim, it’s really delicious!”

Endless praises poured in.

‘Hehehe. Praise me more.’

Sejun pretended not to listen, but he was pleased inwardly.

At that moment,

[Your soul feels fulfilled with the praises poured upon you.]

[Mental Strength has increased by 1.]

Along with the message, his Mental Strength increased.

“Huh?!”

It’s not just farming that can increase it? As Sejun took in this newly learned fact,

“Blackie, let’s eat too.”

He scooped some nutritious rice in Fenrir’s bowl, who had been waiting in front of his bowl for a while.

Then

Kking! Kking!

‘Just now, another kid offered(?) me food and begged(?) me to eat it, but I refused! You should know you’re lucky to be chosen by me!’

Fenrir told Sejun about what happened just before and

Slurp.

Touched the rice with its tongue.

…!!!

Fenrir’s eyes widened simultaneously.

‘It’s so delicious!’

Chomp. Chomp. Chomp.

Fenrir, enthralled by the taste of the mushroom nutritious rice, began to furiously eat with his nose buried in the bowl.

And

“Hehehe. Blackie, you should know you’re lucky.”

Because only I, Park Sejun, can make food this good. Hehehe.

Sejun looked down at Fenrir with a contented expression.

Then

Kuehehehe. Kueng!

[Hehehe. Cuengi will eat one more bowl!]

“Ehehe! I want one more bowl too!”

“Huh?!”

Sejun spotted the two approaching to scoop more rice. My rice!

Sejun hurriedly began to scoop his own rice from the pot.

***

84th Floor, Treasure Vault of the Caiman Kingdom.

The inside was pitch dark.

Due to forcibly entering through the ceiling of the treasure vault instead of the entrance, the magic that should have been activated was not triggered.

“Iona, make it bright, meow!”

“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Yes! Just a moment!”

At Theo’s request, Iona examined the surrounding magic circle and forcibly activated it.

Ooong.

The magic circle activated, and the treasure vault lit up.

And splendidly shining golden statues welcomed Theo and Iona.

However

“Meow meow meow.”

Theo ignored the welcoming gold and walked deeper into the treasure vault, drawn by a powerful attraction he felt inside.

Creak.

As he opened the door at the end of the room filled with gold statues, this time a room with various items appeared.

“This isn’t it, meow!”

There was an attraction, but it wasn’t the powerful pull that had drawn him.

Theo passed through the second room as well.

Creak.

Thus, Theo opened the door that led to the third room.

In the center of the third room, there was a massive altar, and in the middle of the altar stood a giant humanoid crocodile statue.

“Puhuhut. There it is, meow!”

Theo’s eyes sparkled seeing a green gem embedded in the statue’s chest. I’ll take that to Chairman Park, meow!

“Theo-nim, be careful!”

Iona shouted at Theo. She felt an ominous aura emanating from the statue.

At that moment,

Koogooong.

The statue began to move. No, it crumbled apart.

And from the statue flowed a sinister and dark aura.

The dark energy roamed around Theo and Iona and then entered Iona’s body.

However

– ?!!!

– Who are you?!

There was already a resident inside.

Nightmare, the Demon King of Nightmares, residing within Iona’s mind, expelled the dark energy.

The dark energy, driven out of Iona’s body,

“Theo nim, get away!”

While Iona was shouting, the dark energy entered Theo’s body.

“Theo-nim-!”

“Iona, something’s wrong with my body, meooooooo…”

Thud.

Theo lost consciousness.

***

‘All my followers are dead…’

As the Caiman royal family, who had been giving him power, died out, the crocodile god Caiman was fading away.

At that moment, he saw two figures entering his sanctuary.

‘Kukuku. It seems the heavens have not abandoned me, the god of crocodiles, Caiman.’

Caiman sneered bitterly as he looked at them.

So, he hurriedly gathered the energy contained in the statue and examined the bodies of the two.

Both of them had bodies that could handle his power.

Especially feeling the immense magical power contained in the body of the white hamster,

‘I choose you!’

Caiman decided to possess Iona’s body right away.

However,

…?!!!

There was already a being with a will so powerful that even a god like him could not contend.

‘I need to survive, so I have no choice.’

Thus, expelled from Iona’s body, Caiman entered the next best option, the body of the cat nearby.

-Phew. That was close.

Caiman breathed a sigh of relief having entered a body before dissipating and severed the connection between Theo’s mind and body.

-Kukukuk. Now, I just need to eradicate the spirit occupying this body.

The crocodile god Caiman laughed heartily as he looked down at Theo, who appeared very small.

This was Theo’s mental world.

Caiman was the race god of crocodiles, and Theo was just a mere cat. The disparity was evident in their sizes.

“Meow! There’s a mountain of grilled fish, meow! A pond of Churu, meow!”

Theo, unaware of the situation, was distracted by all the grilled fish and Churu around him.

Since it was Theo’s mental world, it was filled with everything Theo loved.

At that moment,

Grab.

“Meow?!”

Caiman grabbed Theo by the scruff and brought him face to face.

“Meow?! Let go of me, meow! What are you, meow?!”

Theo struggled and shouted at Caiman.

-Kukukuk. I am Caiman, the god of crocodiles. I will make good use of your body.

“How dare you attack Theo Park, the Deadly Dragon Clawed Golden Cat, I’ll teach you a lesson, meow!”

Snap.

Theo unsheathed his dragon claws,

Whoosh!

and swung his front paw fiercely. It was a One-Meow Slash.

However,

Ting!

Theo’s attack did not inflict any damage on Caiman.

No matter how strong the dragon claws were in reality, in the mental world, they were only as strong as Theo’s mental power.

“Meow-meow! Meow-meow!”

Theo didn’t give up and attacked Caiman again with his Meow-meow Storm Fist, but it caused no harm to Caiman.

-Kukukuk. Now, disappear.

As Caiman opened his mouth to swallow Theo,

“Chairman Park, help me, meow!”

Theo suddenly called for Sejun.

-Kukukuk. What nonsense are you saying? This is your mental world. No one can help you here.

Caiman mocked Theo.

“It’s not true, meow! Chairman Park is so great that he can do anything, meow!”

Theo boldly shouted back at Caiman.

To Theo, a devout follower of Sejun’s knees, Sejun was always an omnipotent being. Chairman Park always helps when I call him, meow!

It was a response without logic or common sense.

At that moment,

Thump. Thump.

A huge shadow covered Caiman. It was the shadow of Sejun, so large that it almost filled Theo’s mental world.

‘Puhuhut. I wish Chairman Park’s knees were this big, meow!’

Normally, Theo wished in his heart for Sejun’s knees to grow larger, and thus a giant Sejun was born within Theo’s mental world.

-How… how can there be something so gigantic in the mental world…

Caiman was bewildered as he looked up at the giant looking down on him.

It was strange. No matter how weak the mind, it couldn’t be as small as Theo’s.

But now he understood.

‘Crazy! To trust someone else more than himself? To such an absolute degree?!’

Caiman couldn’t comprehend, but to Theo, a devout follower of Sejun’s knees, it was perfectly natural.

While Caiman was bewildered,

“Puhuhut. I knew Chairman Park would come to save me, meow! Giant Chairman Park, teach him a lesson, meow!”

Bang!

With Theo’s cry, the giant Sejun stepped on Caiman.

And then

Rumble.

As if nothing had happened, Sejun created a new mountain of grilled fish and a pond of Churu.

It was safe to say that Sejun was recreating Theo’s mental world.

“Puhuhut. The knees of giant Chairman Park, meow!!!”

Excited Theo climbed the legs of the giant Sejun when,

“Meow?! Where did the knees of the giant Chairman Park go, meow?!”

Theo, reconnected to his body, regained his senses and searched for the knees of the giant Sejun.

And then,

On the 99th floor of the tower.

“Hmm hmm hmm.”

[You have harvested a Stamina Corn.]

…

..

.

[You have annihilated the spirit of Caiman, the race god of crocodiles]

[You gained 100 million experience points.]

[You have achieved the feat of annihilating a race god.]

[As a reward for the achievement, you have obtained the <Title: Godslayer>.]

Suddenly, a message appeared in front of Sejun, who was humming and harvesting corn, that he had annihilated Caiman.

“Huh?! I did?”
