Solo Farming In The Tower

“No, Cuengi, Dad didn’t eat something delicious by himself. Right, Vice Chairman Theo?”

Sejun hurriedly asked Theo to clarify to Cuengi, who seemed to have misunderstood, but

“What are you talking about? Chairman Park was happily eating what I gave him! And didn’t he also make that ‘Keuh’ sound that he only makes when he eats something delicious?!”

Theo, who had been focusing on Sejun’s reaction to eating the golden inner core closely, thought that Sejun was trying to deny his achievement for bringing the golden core and described in detail what he saw. Puhuhut. you can’t fool me, meow!

“Ah?! That’s right.”

Thinking about it, Sejun had eaten something with an orange soda flavor… so he did indeed eat something tasty. Still! Darn! Theo, you’re not helping me at all this time.

“Well, it can’t be helped then.”

Shashasha.

Sejun rubbed his palms together hurriedly as Cuengi watched.

Krueng?!

[Dad, you’re admitting that you ate by yourself…]

As Cuengi questioned Sejun’s actions,

“Look at this, Cuengi.”

As Sejun spread the distance between his palms,

Crackle.

A red spark appeared between his palms.

“Hehehe. How is it? Amazing, isn’t it?”

Sejun proudly boasted, pleased with himself, but

Krueng? Krueng?

[What’s that? You did all this to show me only that?]

Cuengi responded nonchalantly.

Krueng!

[Cuengi can do that too!]

Shushushush.

Cuengi rubbed its front paws together vigorously, imitating Sejun. An ominous noise emanated from Cuengi.

‘Nah, that can’t be right?’

An uneasy feeling washed over Sejun, who tried to deny the possibility. Still, he thought it couldn’t be that easy to create a spark since he had the electricity talent and Cuengi did not.

However,

“Huh?!”

Cuengi’s fur stood on end, and

Crackle. Crack.

A blinding white spark formed on Cuengi’s front paws, visibly a powerful electric charge.

Krueng!

[Mom told me not to do this because it tangles my fur!]

Click.

Cuengi discharged the electricity from its paws to the ground as if to warn Sejun. If I get caught doing this, mom will smack me on the back!

Lick, lick.

Cuengi quickly licked his fur, trying to tidy up the hairs that had spread out in all directions to avoid getting caught and scolded by Pink-fur.

“I’ll help you!”

Theo came over to assist Cuengi with his grooming.

“It’s not because it’s dangerous, but because it tangles the fur…”

Watching the two, Sejun was surprised anew by Cuengi’s strength and

Swoosh, swoosh.

Sejun helped straighten out Cuengi’s fur with a comb.

Soon, as Cuengi’s grooming was nearly finished,

Grrrrumble.

Having spent a lot of energy grooming, Cuengi’s hunger clock sounded.

And then,

Krueng! Krueng!

[Cuengi’s angry and hungry because Dad ate something tasty alone! Cuengi wants to eat honey-dipped garaetteok (TL: aka rice cakes).]

Remembering that Sejun had eaten something delicious by himself, the fierce Cuengi demanded honey-dipped garaetteok. Just when Sejun thought he had gotten away with it…

“Just wait a moment!”

Sejun ran to the kitchen area and
