In Gagel’s conference room.

“What’s happening with the locust swarm in Africa? I think it’s time to reduce their numbers.”

Knowing that Gagel is deliberately reducing the food supply to some extent, political pressure from the United States and Europe began to rise as food prices continued to soar.

“Starting tomorrow, we plan to mass-spray a newly developed insecticide that is harmless to humans across the African continent using drones.”

The director in charge of Africa’s food supplies answered Chairman William’s question.

“Good. What’s the price?”

Although moving under pressure, Gagel’s business style was to somehow gain benefits. So Gagel secretly negotiated with African governments and received compensation.

“We have agreed to receive farmland and mines from each government.”

African governments complied with Gagel’s demands in order to maintain their regime, as the atmosphere was such that riots could break out at any moment due to food issues.

“Well… not bad. The insecticide is definitely safe, right?”

“Yes! You don’t need to worry. It won’t harm humans even if ingested in large quantities, but locusts can’t tolerate even a small intake.”

“Okay. Next report, Vice Chairman.”

“Yes!”

At William’s call, Michael began to report.

“We have removed all of the skeleton tombs on the second floor of the tower and turned them into experience farms, and we are working on expanding the experience farm to the third floor.”

“And the revenue?”

“The current revenue is 10,000 tower coins a day. Roughly 10 million dollars…”

Michael continued his report confidently, oblivious to what he was actually doing.

Black Tower’s Administrator Zone.

Munch, munch.

Aileen was chewing songpyeon that Sejun gave her, filling her cheeks until they puffed up.

Sejun didn’t give Aileen a giant songpyeon, but Aileen used polymorph magic to take on a human form.

Now, in the high mana concentration of the administrator area, Aileen could use polymorph magic without any burden.

Gulp.

“Heeheehee. Delicious! Yum. Yum.”

Aileen stuffed in two more songpyeon in a row. At first, she thought that turning into a human was shameful, but after transforming to meet Sejun, she found the human form to be incredibly pleasing.

If she were in her original dragon form, she would need to chew about 2000 rice cakes to feel full, but in her human form, two were enough to fill her mouth.

“Heeheehee. I should return the favor too.”

She wanted to repay him with cooking, but Sejun always insisted on cooking himself.

‘Heeheehee. Sejun thinks so much about me. I’ll save cooking for later.’

Aileen decided to save her cooking to surprise Sejun later. It definitely wasn’t because she lacked confidence in her cooking.

And then,

“I should also enchant my scale and give it as a gift.”

She decided to gift Sejun a unique, special item. Kaiser’s enchanted scale for Sejun made Aileen very envious. Now that she had more magical power, she could make one too.

“Polymorph, release.”

Thud.

Aileen returned to her original form.

“Where is it?”

Aileen rummaged around the place where she kept her things, looking for the box where she had collected the scales that had fallen off during her infancy. Dragons knew that their scales and teeth were excellent materials, so they typically saved them.

“Ah! Here it is.”

Aileen picked up one of the scales.

Then,

“Ouch!”

She bit her finger, causing a small wound. Unlike Kaiser, Aileen couldn’t just use her magic to engrave spells yet.

Drip. Drip.
