“But how did you end up collapsed on the floor?”

Sejun asked the fully recovered Theo.

To which,

“It’s all Chairman Park’s fault, meow!”

Theo immediately blamed Sejun.

“Me?”

“Yes, meow!”

“Why me?”

“It’s because Chairman Park sent me away, and I was away from Chairman Park’s lap for too long, so I lost my energy, meow!”

Ah… Sejun had forgotten that this was Theo’s usual behavior. So, he changed his question.

“Did anything unusual happen?”

“Yes, meow! The members of the Three-Headed Society tried to kidnap me, meow!”

“The Three-Headed Society? Don’t tell me one of Hydra’s heads appeared?!”

Even if hundreds or thousands of regular hunters from the Three-Headed Society attacked, they wouldn’t be able to bring down Theo due to magic depletion. The only remaining possibility was the appearance of one of Hydra’s heads.

“Yes, meow! The blue snake appeared, but I defeated it easily, meow!”

There were some ups and downs in between, but Theo boldly skipped them to show off his competence to Sejun.

“Vice Chairman Theo, you?!”

Sejun was astonished by Theo’s words.

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, take this, meow!”

Feeling pleased by Sejun’s surprised expression, Theo took out a bronze coin from his bag and handed it to Sejun. On one side, there was an image of Hydra and on the other, the number 4.

[Hydra’s 4th Bronze Coin]

???

“What kind of snake was it?”

“It was a blue snake that created ice, meow!”

“Vice Chairman Theo, you really are strong.”

Sejun had to admit it. He had somewhat underestimated Theo… but Theo was evidently much stronger than he’d thought.

“Puhuhut. I’m super strong, meow! I even developed a new skill this time, meow!”

Feeling happy from Sejun’s praise, Theo lazily sprawled across Sejun’s lap.

Then,

“But there’s been a weird smell coming from my mouth since earlier, meow! Quickly give me some of Chairman Park’s homemade churu, meow!”

Theo demanded the homemade churu. Sejun was annoyed thinking about how he had fed elixirs to recover quickly, and now he’s complaining about a weird smell? Sejun felt a bit upset.

However,

“Here you go.”

Regardless of his feelings, Sejun naturally handed Theo the homemade churu.

Slurp, slurp, slurp.

While Theo was enjoying his second mouthful of the homemade churu,

“Right, meow! I have one more thing to give to Chairman Park, meow!”

Theo remembered the bronze plaque he got from the lost and found storage’s draw and took it out from his bag.

“Chairman Park will be very pleased with this, meow!”

“Really?”

Curious from Theo’s confident demeanor, Sejun looked at the bronze plaque.

[Bronze Mirror]

Usage Restrictions: None

Grade: D

“It’s a mirror?”

The flat object he thought was a paddle turned out to be a mirror.

Swish, swish.

Sejun tried cleaning the bronze with his clothes, but it didn’t become clear enough to reflect his face.

“Aileen, can you appraise this?”

[The Tower’s Administrator says leave it to her.]

“Alright, thanks. And isn’t this too little? Take more.”

Sejun sent Aileen the bronze mirror along with 1,000 elixir-grade cherry tomatoes. That morning, he transported 5,000 tomatoes from the temporary storage in the White Tower, so he had plenty.
