Solo Farming In The Tower

Within the Black Tower, numerous merchant passages and Lindgens were installed.

“Burp. What’s this? Why does my stomach feel so bloated?”

Amidst all this, a fragment of Jǫrmungandr, hidden in the shadows, spoke. The reason for its discomfort was that Theo and Uren’s caravan had not yet been digested.

“Seems like they’re tough ones. Well, it doesn’t matter; they can’t escape from inside me anyway.”

Squeeze.

Having finished speaking, the fragment of Jǫrmungandr bit its own tail again and hid itself more deeply.

“Yes! Of course! I’m overflowing with money!”

Uren naively answered Theo’s question. Theo was certain now. This pink pig was a pushover, meow! Why ask for help if it’s just about following the path? I’ll save him and get a lot of money, meow!

“Puhuhut. Just follow me, meow!”

Thinking he had found an gullible target, Theo happily led the way.

A short while later,

Sssss. Sssss.

The white snakes appeared again.

“Stay back, you guys, meow! Meow-meow Storm Fist!”

Theo stopped the caravan guards from intervening and dealt with the snakes himself. I can’t share these coins, meow! Puhuhut. All these coins are mine, meow!

After defeating all the snakes,

“My slave, Gaeron, come out, meow!”

-Did you call me, Master?!

“Right, meow! Gaeron, just quietly pick up the coins, meow!”

-Yes!

Theo summoned Gaeron to collect the coins.

Several hours later.

“Meow?! Why isn’t the exit of the 70th floor of the Tower appearing, meow?”

After battling snakes and moving for quite some time, Theo finally realized something was amiss. He should have reached the 70th floor of the Tower long ago.

Then,

“Lord Theo, didn’t you know? This path is endless. We’ve been walking in the same place all along.”

Uren, who had been trapped for several days, informed Theo of what he had discovered earlier.

“Meow?! Does that mean we can’t get out of here, meow?!”

“Yes. We had no way out, so we requested your help, Lord Theo.”

“…Meow?!”

Shocked by Uren’s words, Theo panicked. Does that mean I can’t go back to Chairman Park’s lap, meow?! That can’t happen, meow! I must return to Chairman Park’s lap quickly, meow!!!

The idea of being separated from Sejun’s lap was unthinkable for Theo, who was fanatically obsessed with it. Nobody can come between Chairman Park’s lap and me, meow!

“Uren, give me the money, meow!”

Theo extended his front paw confidently, asking for the money he had been promised by Uren.

“What?! Oh. Yes, I can give you as much money as you want, but… why?”

“Just give it, meow!”

“Alright.”

Uren handed over his money pouch to Theo.

And then,

Flash!

Receiving the money pouch, Theo began burning Uren’s money and started shining in a golden light.

“Ugh.”

Sejun woke up in bed, got up, and looked at his knee.

“He’s still not back… Theo, what trouble are you causing now?”

Worried that Theo, who usually returned by dawn, had still not come back, Sejun wondered if Theo had gotten into some trouble.

But then,

“No. That doesn’t feel right…”

Sejun’s intuition told him something had happened to Theo.

“Golden Bat, go to Iona and ask her to look for Theo.”

(Yes!)

After sending the Golden Bat to Iona, Sejun got up, marked the date on his bedroom wall, and began his 350th day of being stranded, starting with the morning.

“I’ll make Samyangju and rice noodle dough in the morning, and in the evening, I’ll make rice noodles with Cuengi.”

Checking his plans for the day, Sejun headed to the kitchen to make breakfast.
