Solo Farming In The Tower

“Mix vinegar and salt in a 2:1 ratio and add it to the bean juice. But don’t stir it too much, or the tofu won’t coagulate… Huh?! Sejun?!”

Kim Mi-ran was explaining how to make tofu to Sejun when their conversation was abruptly cut off as Sejun and Cuengi disappeared from the mirror.

“I still had more to say…”

Kim Mi-ran said with a look of disappointment.

Then,

“Ah!”

Remembering something, she hurriedly opened the front door and went outside.

And,

“Flamie!”

She called out to the apple tree in the middle of the garden, which had been planted there since they moved in.

And,

-Yes. Master’s mother, did you call for me?

The apple tree replied.

Initially Flamie, who had taken root in the house’s basement to protect Sejun’s family,

“Sigh… Sejun only sends messages that he’s doing well through Hunter Han Tae-jun, but why doesn’t he come out of the tower? Is he eating properly?”

overheard Kim Mi-ran’s worries while she was watering the garden and worrying about Sejun.

‘Master’s mother is worried about the master. I must do something!’

So, Flamie connected its roots with those of the apple tree in the garden to ease Kim Mi-ran’s worries and,

-Excuse me… Hello, master’s mother, I am Flamie.

started to communicate with Kim Mi-ran through the apple tree, occasionally updating her about Sejun and reassuring his worried family.

However,

“Hohoho. Sejun has a girlfriend? And she’s incredibly beautiful?!”

“Really?! With Sejun’s one word the monsters in the tower die?”

“He even ate ramen recently? The tower has everything, doesn’t it?”

Flamie ended up alleviating their worries too much by only sharing the good news about Sejun, making his family worry less about him.

As a result, Kim Mi-ran was not overly worried when she saw Sejun after almost a year.

Moreover, the environment visible through the mirror, with its fully cultivated wasteland now filled with crops like corn and cherry tomatoes, made Sejun’s location seem like an ordinary peaceful countryside.

Back to the present.

“Flamie, I was talking to Sejun and got cut off. Can I ask you something?”

Kim Mi-ran, unable to satisfy her curiosity due to the interrupted conversation with Sejun, asked Flamie.

-Yes! Ask me anything!

“How does Sejun take care of his skin?”

-Huh?! Skin care?

“Yes. Sejun’s skin looked so good!”

Kim Mi-ran was curious about Sejun’s skin care routine, which had improved significantly since entering the tower. His skin tone brightened, blemishes disappeared, and there was a faint glow.

His features also seemed more defined. While Sejun, seeing his face every day, didn’t notice the changes, his face was really getting more handsome due to Theo’s massages.

-Ah! That’s because of Master’s right-hand man, Theo…

Flamie explained to Kim Mi-ran why Sejun’s skin had improved.

“So you’re saying Sejun’s skin got better because of the kneading from Theo, the cat he’s raising?!”

-Yes!

“Sejun is so lucky, getting massages and improving his skin… I’m so jealous.”

Kim Mi-ran was enviously happy for her son, whose skin even got better while getting massages by the cat’s kneading.

“Speaking of which, I didn’t see Theo. I should ask Sejun to show me Theo later.”

Kim Mi-ran, feeling a bit disappointed about not seeing Theo.
