TL: Hanguk

[Seed shop is now open.]

[Today, three types of seeds for sale will be randomly displayed.]

[At your current level, you can only purchase seeds once.]

List of Seeds appeared in front of Se-jun.

[Watermelon seeds x10 – 5 Tower Coins]

[Sweet Pumpkin seeds x50 – 1 Tower Coin]

[Glutinous Corn seeds x200 – 0.5 Tower Coins]

The prices of these seeds were very different from the ones that were sold last time.

Sejun had only 0.9 Tower Coins, and the only thing he could afford was glutinous corn seeds.

“If it’s this expensive, I won’t be able to buy anything next time…”

But there was no way to make more money here.

Hunters had three ways to earn Tower Coins in the tower. There might be other methods, but Sejun didn’t know them.

The first way to earn Tower Coins was to clear floors and receive clear rewards. The amount earned at once was large, but since each floor’s clear reward could only be received once, it didn’t account for a significant portion of the actual income earned by hunters.

The second method was monster hunting. The corpses of monsters could be sold to wandering merchants or at the first-floor shop, earning Tower Coins. It was the main source of income for hunters since it could continuously generate revenue.

The third method was completing quests and receiving rewards. Quest rewards varied greatly, so it was difficult to describe them.

Clearing floors was not an option for Sejun since he couldn’t even leave the cave, and even if he did, his chances of survival among the vicious monsters were low.

As for monster hunting, apart from the piranhas they ate, all the other monsters were family. And there was no place to sell the fish bones from the piranha corpses, but it seemed unlikely they could be sold anyway.

Crunch, crunch.

Lately, the rabbits had been enjoying sun-dried piranha fish bones as a snack. Sejun had tried them too; the crunchy texture was good, and the more he chewed, the richer the flavor, so he kept reaching for more.

Thus, the last method left for Sejun to earn Tower Coins was:

“Almost extortion-level quests from the Tower Administrator…”

So, after the Seed Shop transaction, he demanded Tower Coins as a quest completion reward from the Tower Administrator.

[The Tower Administrator says they don’t know what that is, but they’ll give it to you when they grow up.]

He got a weird response. The Tower Administrator doesn’t know what Tower Coins are? How could that be?! And saying they’ll give it when they grows up…

“How old are you?”

Sejun calmed his excitement and asked.

[The Tower Administrator says that’s a secret.]

“Then how many years will it take for you to grow up?”

[The Tower Administrator says about 300 years.]

“…Are you kidding?! So should I record all the Tower Coins I’ll receive from now on and pass them down through generations until my great-great-great-great-grandchild gets them?! And I’m not even in a situation where I can have descendants now!”

[……]

When Sejun angrily sputtered, the Tower Administrator ran away again. They disappeared when faced with difficult answers. So, Sejun gave up on earning Tower Coins in this place.

“Phew. Just thinking about it makes me angry again.”

Seojun calmed down and looked back at the seeds in the seed store.

The only thing he could buy was the corn.

“Well, corn isn’t bad either.”

It’s delicious whether you steam or grill it. Plus, you can grind it into flour and make something like bread.

“Slurp…”

Seojun’s mouth watered just by imagining eating steamed corn. Knowing the taste was indeed more tempting.

“Alright! corn It is then!”

Seojun purchased the corn.

[You have purchased 200 corn seeds.]

[0.5 Tower Coins are deducted from your Seed Bank account.]

[You have earned 5 Seed Store mileage points.]

[Thank you for using the Seed Store.]

[You can use Seed Store Lv. 1 again in 30 days.]

A leather pouch containing 200 corn kernels appeared in Seojun’s hand. As expected, the pouch was the most luxurious.

As Seojun opened the high-quality leather pouch and poured it into his hand,
