Solo Farming In The Tower

-Ahem! Sejun, could you cook one more potato pancake for me?

-Huh! Me too…

Kaiser and Kellion, who had tasted the potato pancakes, asked Sejun for more, glancing at him.

Kaiser had stopped calling Sejun ‘rascal.’ The 3-stage combo of roasted sweet potatoes, sweet potato soup, and potato pancakes had a powerful effect.

However,

“No, I can’t. I have to work now.”

Sejun firmly refused the requests of the two dragons. Sejun’s priority now was to complete his job quest and reach level 51. Instead, he gave them each one more bowl of sweet potato soup.

-I need to eat it with alcohol quickly.

-Alcohol again?!

-Hehehe. I have fire carrot wine that I received from Sejun.

-What?! fire carrot wine?! How did you get that?!

Kellion was greatly surprised at Kaiser’s words.

Fire carrot wine?! It was a alcohol produced by the Red Tower’s tower farmer, and the red dragons strictly prevented its exportation from the tower, making it as hard to find as plucking stars from the sky. Kellion himself had barely managed to taste a single bottle a thousand years ago.

-There was a harvest festival a few days ago.

-You’d need ten kinds of crops for a harvest festival…

Jealousy was not hidden in Kellion’s voice. He was envious of Kaiser having such an excellent tower farmer like Sejun. As for his tower…

-Sigh…

Thinking about his Tower’s tower farmer, all Kellion could do was sigh. That damn fool claim to be a tower farmer…

-Hahaha. Cheer up!

Flap, flap.

Kaiser laughed boisterously and flew up to the fountain. Seeing Whitey’s jealousy, he thought the alcohol would taste really good today.

-Damn… Envy is a losing game…

Kellion was envious of Kaiser, who received delicious foods every day from Sejun.

-I need to call and check on the progress.

After Kaiser left, Kellion went up to Sejun’s house roof, settled in his spot, and moved to his main body into the white tower.

And then,

Snip. Snip.

Sejun continued harvesting cherry tomatoes for several hours.

“Phew. It’s finished.”

As Sejun finished harvesting the cherry tomatoes,

Flap. Flap.

The golden bat flew to Sejun.

(Sejun! I think I’ll be going to Earth soon!)

“Really?”

It had already been a week since the golden bat brought the ramen.

“Golden bat, keep revising what I taught you!”

(Yes-!)

Swoosh. Swoosh.

(Ramen, cola…)

At Sejun’s words, the golden bat saluted and diligently revised the essential keywords like an exam-taking student.

Meanwhile, Sejun took out wooden planks from the void storage.

“Here, take these with you.”

(Yes!)

The golden bat grabbed the palm-sized wooden plank with its foot. On the wooden plank, Sejun had written a message and phone number.

-If you find this, please contact 010 – XXXX – XXXX and I will give you 10 million won. (Han Tae-jun, President of the Korean Awakened Association)

Sejun thought it might take too long to locate where the golden bat appears, so he decided to leave the contact information where it appeared.

The contact information was Han Tae-jun’s phone number, and Sejun had explained this matter to Han Tae-jun and obtained his number.

He used Han Tae-jun’s name as the offer of money looked suspicious, and Han Tae-jun was famous, sometimes even appearing on the news.

“Theo, this is President Han Tae-jun’s number, right?”

“It is, meow! You don’t trust me, meow?!”

Theo was angry at Sejun’s lack of trust.

“Of course I trust you.”

Sejun stroked Theo’s head. His impatience grew, thinking he could soon eat ramen, cola, and more.

“Of course, meow! President Park, just trust me, meow!”

“Okay, let’s get started.”

(Yes!)
