Solo Farming In The Tower

TL: Hanguk

Slurp, slurp.

Munch, munch.

“Um?”

Sejun woke up to the sound of something being eaten and hurriedly checked beside him.

“It’s not here…”

The baby bear, which should have been sleeping next to him, was nowhere to be seen. Sejun had a hunch about who was making the eating noise. The baby bear seemed to have woken up hungry and started eating something.

As Sejun got up from his spot and headed towards the source of the sound,

Bang!

Whoosh, whoosh.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The black rabbit rushed out of the burrow and swung its hammer at the food thief as punishment.

Kueeeng?

Confused and crying, the baby bear didn’t understand why the black rabbit, which had treated it well until yesterday, was hitting it. Big Brother, why are you doing this?

However,

Bang!

The black rabbit showed no mercy. Who dared to touch their storage?

Bang! Bang!

Bang! Bang!

The white rabbits also came out and surrounded the baby bear, stomping the ground with their feet to express their displeasure. They were angry that their carefully grown crops were being stolen and eaten without Sejun’s permission.

“Don’t be too mad. How much can a baby eat… Huh?!”

The first thing Sejun noticed was that the baby bear had grown to the size of a medium-sized dog. Considering that it was the size of a small dog just yesterday, its growth rate was astonishing.

And the thought that followed,

How much would it have to eat to grow so fast?

Sejun hurriedly checked the storage.

“…!”

The storage was significantly empty. About a third of the stored sweet potatoes and carrots had disappeared. The fact that the cherry tomatoes hadn’t been touched somehow felt more irritating.

Kueeeng!

As soon as the baby bear saw Sejun, it rushed towards him, expecting him to protect it and asking to be hugged.

Thud.

It felt much heavier than yesterday, and its strength was completely different.

“Did bears always grow this fast?”

Sejun worried that having the bear around would eventually cause problems in their cave. It might even eat them if it got hungry enough. He suddenly felt a sense of crisis.

And there was one more being that felt the same sense of crisis.

[The tower administrator is surprised why there’s a baby Crimson Giant Bear here.]

[The tower administrator says that baby Crimson Giant Bears are gluttonous creatures that can easily eat 100kg a day if there’s enough food.]

The tower administrator was annoyed. Human’s food storage was being plundered.

They had been struggling to establish connections with the humans and were barely receiving anything in return…

Of course, making connections with this human was quite satisfying.

However…

A baby Crimson Giant Bear stealing food from human storage was unforgivable! Absolutely unforgivable!

[The tower administrator is furious at the baby Crimson Giant Bear.]

[A quest has been generated.]

[Quest: Drive the baby Crimson Giant Bear out of the cave!]

Reward: 1 job skill

Penalty for refusal: Death due to starvation!!!

The tower administrator was so angry that they even a reward was offered.

[The tower administrator urges you to hurry.]

[The tower administrator says that in just a few days, the baby Crimson Giant Bear will grow too big to leave the cave.]

Seojun felt the seriousness in the tower administrator’s words. His survival instincts rang an alarm. He needed a plan!

However,

“Uhm…”

He couldn’t come up with any ideas.

“Let’s have a glass of honey water and think.”

He thought that supplying energy to his brain would bring good ideas.

As Seojun picked up his tumbler and walked towards the bottle filled with honey,

The baby bear diligently followed Seojun. Since the rabbits were angry at the bear, the only existence to protect it was the human in front of it.
