Solo Farming In The Tower

97th Floor of the Tower.

“Is that where Taru’s friend is, meow?!”

Theo asked, looking at the village in the middle of a wasteland in the distance.

“No. That’s my hometown, Rhino Village, over there. Do you see the mountain at the end of the village?”

Taru pointed to the mountain behind the village.

“I see it, meow!”

“There, at the entrance of the mountain, is my friend’s workshop. And… Theo, please don’t call me by my name in the village. I just want to meet my friend quietly.”

Taru readjusted the hood he was wearing to hide his face.

“Got it, meow! Then let’s hurry, meow!”

Theo, eager to buy the jars and return to Sejun triumphantly, hurried Taru along towards the entrance of the village.

“Has it been 100 years?”

Taru, who had not seen his hometown in a long time, followed Theo leisurely after admiring the scenery of his homeland. The mountain served as a landmark, so there was no chance of losing Theo the way to his friend’s workshop.

Just as Taru was walking without worries,

“Ha! Don’t lie to me, meow!!!”

Theo’s angry voice could be heard arguing with the village guards.

***

‘I’ll buy the jars and go back to Chairman Park’s knees, meow!’

Theo, eager to return to Sejun with the jars, ran swiftly and arrived at the entrance to Rhino Village.

But

“Stop right there!”

“If you want to enter the village, pay a toll of 100 Tower Coins!”

The guards blocking the entrance to the village demanded a toll from Theo.

“My village doesn’t charge a toll, so why are you demanding one, meow?”

Theo confronted the guards blocking his way. 100 Tower Coins was a trivial amount compared to the money Theo had, but to be extorted like this was something a fool would do. Puhuhut. I’m no longer a fool, meow!

“What did you say?!”

“Should I just beat this tiny one up?”

The huge guards threatened Theo.

“Puhuhut. How dare you, the great…”

As Theo was about to reveal his identity to intimidate the guards,

“What’s all this noise?”

A being even bigger than the guards appeared.

“I’m… I’m sorry. Lord Radun, this cat refuses to pay the toll… I’ll take care of it quickly!”

The guards spoke with tension in their voices as Radun, the leader of Rhino Village, appeared.

“Kukuk. No need. I’ll personally teach this brazen creature the fear of the world.”

Radun rolled up his left sleeve to show off the black dragon tattoo on his forearm, as if boasting.

“Oh! That’s the great black dragon tattoo that Lord Radun got from fighting the Minotaur King for three days, and he was acknowledged for his strength, a tattoo personally engraved by the Minotaur King himself!”

“Probably, Lord Radun, who came back without a single wound, is much stronger than Lord Taru, the Storm Tank who fought and survived against the Minotaur King 100 years ago.”

The two guards whispered about Radun’s tattoo.

‘Kukuk. Yes. Praise my greatness more!’

Radun shifted about to show off his tattoo better in response to the guards’ words.

Radun recalled that when the Minotaur King recently visited the village, he boldly suggested a one-on-one fight in a secluded place when the villagers were watching but as soon as he went to the secluded place,

Thump!

“Please spare me! I surrender!”

He quickly knelt and surrendered to the Minotaur King.

The Minotaur King, upon seeing Radun’s submission, told him to serve loyally upon seeing anyone with the black dragon tattoo in the future and showed Radun the tattoo on his chest before leaving.

However, as soon as the Minotaur King left, Radun boldly forged a similar black dragon tattoo on his left arm and returned to the village, lying that he had received it from the Minotaur King.

Since then, Radun’s influence grew significantly, and he lived like a king in Rhino Village.

Thus, every day, Radun would roam the village after lunch to see the villagers who feared him. It was then that he noticed Theo.

‘Good catch at the right moment.’

Radun thought it was time to pick one out and show his fearsomeness. He marked Theo, who was standing up to the guards, as his prey. Theo looked weak enough to highlight his own strength.
