Solo Farming In The Tower

“How dare you eat my ramen?! Take this! Boo-boo-boo-boop!”

Sejun vented his anger at Cuengi, who had stolen his ramen, by blowing raspberries¹.

However,

Kkuhehehe. Kruoing!

[Hehehehe. This is fun!]

Cuengi, feeling good with Sejun’s raspberries, stuck out his belly for more.

Just then, a message announcing the start of the third event of the Harvest Festival appeared.

“A Carrot Wine Drinking Competition?”

‘If I could just eat the detoxifying green onions, I might be able to win?’

However, considering that other buffs were deactivated for fairness in the carrot harvesting competition, it was highly likely that detoxifying green onions wouldn’t work.

“Should I give it a try?”

As Sejun was about to go to the giant carrot altar for the competition,

“President Park, give our youngest some New Year’s gift money too, meow!”

Theo, who received a Churu as a gift, began to take care of the golden bat. He was even upgraded to be called ‘our youngest.’

“Oh! Of course, I should.”

Sejun readily agreed. It was a golden bat that brought a whole packet of ramen. It deserved not only New Year’s gift money, but even more.

(Sejun, please accept my bow!)

As the golden bat bowed respectfully, folding its wings,

“Good. Here’s your New Year’s gift money. Stay healthy, golden bat.”

(Yes! Thank you!)

Sejun gave the golden bat some New Year’s gift money.

And then,

“Let’s go.”

He headed towards the giant carrot altar with the animals.

At the giant carrot altar, there were already a mother Crimson Giant Bear, Black Minotaurs, and adult rabbits waiting for the Carrot Wine Drinking Competition to start.

Kreong!

Cuengi ran towards his mother.

However,

Kreong!

While the two were talking, the mother crimson giant bear shook her head,

Krooeeeng!

Cuengi began to lie on the floor and started crying.

“He must be throwing a tantrum to participate in the contest too.”

It was obvious even without looking. All the contests held at the Harvest Festival so far were eating contests.

However, this time it was a drinking contest. The underage Cuengi couldn’t participate. Sejun silently wished the mother Crimson Giant Bear good luck and headed under the giant carrot altar.

[Time remaining for registration – 7 minutes 51 seconds]

[Current number of applications – 532]

Certainly, because it was a drinking contest, young rabbits couldn’t participate, so the number of participants was low.

“The black rabbit is obviously participating, and Theo will participate, right?”

“Of course, meow!”

Although Theo didn’t like alcohol, but he participated in the contest to stay on Sejun’s lap.

[Current number of registrations – 535]

At that time,

Kreong!

The mother Crimson Giant Bear sent Sejun an apologetic glance while pointing at him.

And then

Krooeeeng!

The crying Cuengi started running towards him.

‘No. Why is she sending him to me? Even though I’ve been taking care of Cuengi recently, this isn’t right!’

Sejun thought he would have to talk to the mother Crimson Giant Bear later as he hurriedly took out honey from void storage. He planned to appease Cuengi with honey for now.

Krooeeeng!

The cry asking for honey as soon as he pulled it out. As expected of a Honey Bear, Cuengi immediately stopped crying as soon as it saw the honey.

“If you eat this and wait quietly, I’ll give you another bottle of honey when it’s over. Can our Cuengi wait quietly?”

Lick lick lick.
