Solo Farming In The Tower

TL: Hankguk

“munch, munch, munch.”

Aileen hummed as she put 10 magical cherry tomatoes in her mouth and chewed.

Squish.

Chomp.

In the past, she would need to eat dozens at once to fully taste them, but recently, as the grade of the cherry tomatoes had risen to D, their flavor had become richer. Just 10 of them were enough to enjoy the taste fully.

As Aileen happily enjoyed the taste of the cherry tomatoes,

Thump.

“Huh?!”

Aileen was surprised by the vibration she felt in her chest.

“My Dragon Heart…”

It was very faint and lasted for less than a second. However, since it was a pulse she had never experienced in her 200 years of life, Aileen recognized it immediately.

Her Dragon Heart, which hadn’t beaten in 200 years, briefly moved on its own, absorbing mana.

The mana was absorbed by the Dragon Heart as if a drop of water fell on the cracked, parched ground, scattering and disappearing without a trace in an instant.

But Aileen could feel it clearly. There was a change in her Dragon Heart. And the reason for that change was…

Aileen put 20 D-grade magical cherry tomatoes in her mouth at once, hoping to get a more definite feeling this time.

And

Squish

Chomp.

Gulp.

She chewed the cherry tomatoes deliciously, swallowed them, and then focused on her Dragon Heart.

A moment later,

Thump.

Once again, her Dragon Heart briefly moved on its own, absorbing mana.

She had only thought that the humans’ crops were tasty, but it seemed that they also had the ability to heal her Dragon Heart.

“Huh?! Come to think of it, the time for my seizure has already passed!”

In the administrator’s space of the Tower where Aileen was currently, the mana density was much higher than in other places, so even if her Dragon Heart didn’t beat, Aileen’s breathing alone could supply mana to her body.

However, there was a limit to this, and every 10 years or so, Aileen would have seizures due to mana deficiency.

And with each seizure, the cycle would shorten by a few days.

But it had been more than 10 years and a few days since the last seizure, and she still hadn’t had one.

“From now on, I will protect this human!”

Although the human was already precious to her for providing her with delicious food, those who could make her Dragon Heart beat were even more precious.

The great black dragon Aileen Pritani, 200 years old.

Finally, she found someone she wanted to protect.

Aileen hurriedly looked into the crystal ball to see what the human is doing.

And then,

“No! He found another un-appraised item while I was away! It’s dangerous! I knew the human couldn’t manage without me.”

Aileen quickly woke up Sejun, who was napping.

“Uhm…”

Sejun woke up because of the Tower’s administrator’s message.

[The Tower’s administrator is angry, asking why are you wearing an un-appraised item again.]

[The Tower’s administrator says, didn’t they tell you that using un-appraised items recklessly could cause big trouble?]

“Huh?! This was an item?”

At the words of the Tower’s administrator, Sejun quickly put Theo, who he was holding, on his lap and hurriedly took off the straw hat to examine it. It looked so common that he thought it was just an ordinary straw hat.
