Solo Farming In The Tower

The cliff on the 38th floor’s north side.

“Search! There is a hideout of the ‘Three Head Society’ nearby!”

“Yes, my Lord!”

At Ulrich’s command, the Black Orc soldiers dispersed to search. Originally, they had intended to have the captured hunter from the ‘Three Head Society’ lead them directly to the hideout, but… the hunter committed suicide while being transported. Or to be precise, he was forced into suicide.

The hunter had strangled himself to death…

“I sense the aura of curse magic.”

Shaman Luken discovered traces of curse magic on the deceased hunter’s body. When the Three Head Society lost contact with the captured hunter, a pre-set curse by the ‘Three Head Society’ had been activated.

Due to that, the Black Orcs had to personally search for the ‘Three Head Society’ hideout.

Then,

“My Lord! There’s a cave here.”

One of the Black Orc soldiers who was searching down the cliff shouted.

Moments later,

“There’s nothing inside?”

“Yes, my Lord. We saw the same symbol on the cave walls as the tattoo on the man who killed himself, so it must be the Three Head Society’s hideout… but it seems they’ve already left.”

The Black Orc soldiers who searched the cave returned and reported their findings.

“Hmm… Already?”

Judging by the fact that they hadn’t erased their own symbols from the walls, it seemed they must have left the hideout in a hurry.

‘These aren’t ordinary fellows…’

Considering their boldness in abandoning the hideout just because they lost contact with one member, Ulrich thought the Three Head Society was no ordinary group.

‘In that case, I must thoroughly track them down and wipe them out from the tower to ensure they don’t interfere with the great Black Dragon and Lord Theo’s actions!’

As Ulrich steeled his resolve,

Krrrung.

Another cat intern had relayed the message successfully, and Hegel, leading the Black Wolves, arrived. Elka and the Silverwolves had split off while descending to protect the Earth Defense Force members transporting sturdy blade green onion leaves.

“Lord Hegel, you’re here.”

“Yes, Lord Ulrich.”

Ulrich and Hegel exchanged greetings. They had met several times since Ulrich became Theo’s subordinate.

“Did you find the hideout?”

“Well…”

Ulrich explained the current situation.

“Leave it to us. We’ll inspect the hideout briefly and return.”

“Thank you.”

Hegel and the wolves entered the cliffside cave to search the Three Head Society’s hideout.

And then,

“I’ve got their scent. Let’s go.”

Sniff sniff.

The wolves began to track the scent of the fleeing ‘Three Head Society’.

“It’s done!”

Finally, after steaming all the rice cakes for the cake, Sejun shouted in joy.

Krueng!

[Cuengi can eat rice cakes after sleeping one more night!]

Cuengi was also excited at the thought of eating rice cakes soon. Father and son both were happy but for different reasons.

“Let’s begin.”

Sejun began crafting the birthday cake with rice cakes.

“First, lay down some banana leaves on the bottom…”

To prevent the rice cakes from getting dirty, Sejun placed many banana leaves on the ground and started stacking the rice cakes like bricks.

One hour. Two hours…

Sejun concentrated on stacking the rice cakes.

And then,

“Done! Ta-da! What do you think, Cuengi?”

Sejun pointed at the towering 99-layer ‘rice cake’ cake tower with a 2-meter diameter, asking Cuengi’s opinion.

Krueng!

[It looks delicious!]

“No, I meant the shape?”

Not getting the answer he wanted, Sejun asked again.
