Solo Farming In The Tower
Chapter 11
TL: Hanguk
The black dragon Aelin Pritani found the sweet potatoes hidden in a corner of Sejun’s cave. After persistent persuasion(?), she received three sweet potatoes and some leaves from the human as a quest and began to roast them on a fire.
Making roasted sweet potatoes seemed incredibly easy viewed through the crystal ball, as all you had to do was wrap them in leaves and put them on the fire.
“There’s no way I, the great black dragon, can’t do what a human can.”
Aelin was confident of success. However, the first roasted sweet potato was completely burnt, turning into charcoal that couldn’t be eaten and had to be thrown away. The second one was taken out too quickly, leaving the inside uncooked. Roasting sweet potatoes was a profound dish that tested one’s patience.
“Hehehe, did it work out well?”
Aelin, with hopeful eyes, took out the last remaining roasted sweet potato that gave off a sweet, smoky scent. With the know-how from two failures, she was certain of success this time.
She carefully held the roasted sweet potato with two claws and broke it in half.
“Huh?”
It felt different from when she broke the roasted sweet potato the human had given her. What is this?
But as the steaming, yellowish-brown cooked flesh of the roasted sweet potato was revealed, she quickly forgot about it.
“It worked! It worked!”
Aelin rejoiced at the sight of the finished roasted sweet potato.
“Hehehe, human, did you see that? I, black dragon Aelin Pritani, made this roasted sweet potato!”
Aelin looked proudly at the roasted sweet potato.
And then
“Ah.”
She peeled the skin off and put half of the roasted sweet potato in her mouth.
It seemed like it would taste better if she bit into it like a human, but she was a black dragon. She couldn’t allow herself to imitate a human’s appearance, as it would lower her dignity.
Crunch.
“What?!”
This wasn’t the right texture. Her teeth should have sunk in without any resistance, but she felt a subtle resistance. It wasn’t the moist, chewy, and soft texture that the human had offered.
Moreover, it was sweet but didn’t have the more concentrated sweetness of the first roasted sweet potato she had eaten.
“How could this be? My fire is stronger and better… Why is mine less tasty…”
The great black dragon couldn’t believe that she was worse at roasting sweet potatoes than a human.
A dragon like me can’t control fire better than a human! Aelin was frustrated.
“Ugh! My pride is hurt!”
Aelin was upset again today.
“Since I’m annoyed, let’s see what the human is doing.”
Aelin began watching Sejun’s cave through the crystal ball.

Squeak!
Squee!
Sejun woke up to the sounds of the busy rabbit couple.
“Alright!”
As soon as Sejun got up, he went to the wall where he recorded the dates.
And then
Swoosh.
He drew a line on the wall with a fish bone, completing the character 正.
On the wall, there were two lines with ten 正 characters each, and below that, a third line with four completed 正 characters.

‘Almost four months have passed…’
Sejun glanced at the wall once and went to the pond to wash his face and eat breakfast.
Then he began his morning farming.
