In the Black Tower Administrator’s Area.

-Kahaha! How has my granddaughter been?!

Kaiser, who had returned to the Black Dragon’s territory in a good mood after drinking Samyangju with Kellion and Ramter, re-entered the Black Tower through the Black Dragon statue.

“Grandpa, where have you been?! I have something to ask you.”

-Oh?! My little Aileen has something to ask this old man?! What is it? Ask me anything! Kahahaha.

When Aileen said she had something to ask him, Kaiser was ready to answer any question.

“It’s… something I read in a book. There’s a place where the sky is purple, the land is green, and there are crustacean insects with many legs. But the name of the place wasn’t mentioned, so I thought maybe you would know.”

The place Aileen mentioned was where Flamie had rooted itself, but Aileen had no idea about it. That’s why she asked Kaiser, even resorting to a lie to keep Flamie’s secret.

-Hmm… Purple sky and green land… Ah! Of course, I know!

Upon hearing Aileen’s words, something immediately came to Kaiser’s mind. However, what Kaiser thought of was not a place, but the beings that create such an environment: the Purple Dragons.

The places where Purple Dragons reside turn green due to the magic imbued with their toxic aura, and the atmosphere turns purple due to their poisonous breath.

“What is it?!”

-Well, I’m not sure of the exact location, but it’s a phenomenon that occurs when Purple Dragons dwell.

“Really?! Purple Dragons?!”

-It could be the Purple Dragons’ territory or inside the Purple Tower where such an environment is created.

Kaiser replied, looking at Aileen suspiciously. There are no books about Purple Dragons in the library. I got rid of all those unlucky Purple Dragons’ books, didn’t I?

As Kaiser looked at Aileen with suspicion,

“Ah! Right! Sejun is making Samyangju again! He’s planning to sell it this time!”

Aileen informed Kaiser that Sejun was making Samyangju again. It was a promotion for Sejun’s Samyangju.

-Really?!

Upon hearing Aileen’s words, Kaiser immediately headed to the brewery. Kellion would be coming soon, and Kaiser planned to pay Sejun first and secure the Samyangju.

After Kaiser left,

“Phew…”

Aileen sighed in relief, having been tense from deceiving Kaiser, and picked up a crystal orb.

“Keeheehee. Flamie, I found out where your roots are!”

[Really? Where is it?]

“I think it’s the Purple Tower. There’s a lot of poison there, but are you okay?”

[The poison I can somewhat withstand, but it’s a bit annoying because the bugs keep trying to eat me.]

“What?! Bugs dare to bother you, Sejun’s tree?! That won’t do. I’ll teach you a few spells!”

Aileen began teaching Flamie some magic.

***

Early dawn.

Squeeze… squeeze…

‘Huh? What’s that?’

Sejun woke up feeling something pressing on his face.

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, are you awake, meow?!”

As Sejun woke up, Theo, who had been massaging Sejun’s face with his paws, greeted him with a mischievous laugh.

And then,

“Chairman Park, try this, meow! It’s honey water made from fresh honey collected by bees this morning, meow!”

Theo handed Sejun the honey water he had forcibly made from the poisonous honeybees.

“What… What’s this? Vice Chairman Theo, why are you acting like this all of a sudden?”

Normally, Theo would be busy with his own things even when Sejun woke up. But now, from massages to honey water this early in the morning? It was too suspicious.

“No need to feel burdened, meow! Just go ahead and drink some honey water, meow!”

You’re the most burdensome…

“Alright.”

Following Theo’s persistent urging, Sejun drank the honey water.

Gulp, gulp.

The honey water flowing down his throat.

“Kuh. Refreshing.”

The honey water was sweet and refreshing.

As Sejun drank the honey water,

“Puhuhut. Weren’t you hot while sleeping, meow?! I’ll fan you, meow!”

Whoosh, whoosh.

Theo waved his paws, fanning Sejun.

“Why are you really doing this?”
