Solo Farming In The Tower

“Don’t come any closer!!!”

“Huh?! Why···?”

Sejun was momentarily startled by Kim Dong-sik’s frightened voice.

“Ah. It can be scary if a stranger suddenly runs towards you in such a place.”

Sejun himself thought it would have been scary if an unknown person suddenly called his name and approached him. He had made a mistake in his excitement to meet someone after so long.

“Dong-sik~nim! It’s me, Park Sejun!”

So, Sejun carefully revealed his name.

“Really? Is it really you, Sejun~nim?”

Since Kim Dong-sik only saw someone approaching, he was somewhat relieved to hear it was Sejun.

“Yes! It’s me! Nice to meet you!”

“Me too! I’m glad to meet you!”

In this way, Sejun managed to alleviate Kim Dong-sik’s fears through conversation. Surely, this should be enough to dispel his wariness?

“Dong-sik~nim, let’s talk more as we get closer!”

Sejun tried to approach Dong-sik again.

However,

“No! That won’t do! Please don’t come any closer! Sejun~nim, let’s talk from this distance!”

Kim Dong-sik once again made an X with his arms to prevent Sejun from approaching. His voice was still filled with fear.

“What?! Why?!”

Sejun couldn’t understand Kim Dong-sik’s reaction.

***

Hunters aware of Sejun’s existence had one question in mind.

‘Why doesn’t Park Sejun come out of the tower?’

Thanks to Sejun’s crops, patients on the brink of death were revived and thwarted attacks from Earth-threatening locusts.

If Sejun wished, he could enjoy immense wealth and honor.

However, for some reason, Sejun, despite having such wealth and honor, had not stepped out of the tower.

There were various speculations about the reason, but none were convincing due to the lack of information about Sejun.

And then,

‘So this was it!’

Having met Sejun, Kim Dong-sik understood why Sejun hadn’t left the tower.

‘The reason Sejun~nim doesn’t leave the tower is because he’s too powerful.’

Even as a hunter in the top 5% on Earth, Dong-sik felt a deathly fear from the energy emanating from Sejun, even at a distance of over 1 km.

An ordinary person would probably need to keep a distance of at least 10 km from Sejun for safety. Any closer would mean certain death.

Just his mere existence exerted this much influence. If Sejun were to get even slightly excited and intensify his energy, the consequences would be unimaginable.

‘Sejun~nim is staying in the tower to protect us.’

He must be aware that leaving the tower could cause immense human casualties.

Thus, unbeknownst to Sejun, a plausible reason for his staying in the tower was formed.

‘How hard must it be for him?’

Kim Dong-sik felt concerned for Sejun. He didn’t even know Sejun kept animals around to alleviate his loneliness.

‘We have to help!’

Kim Dong-sik resolved to assist Sejun in the tower.

“Sejun~nim, do you need anything?!”

Thus, Kim Dong-sik asked if there was anything Sejun desired, considering he couldn’t leave the tower.

Just then,

Sssss!

“Huh!”

The oppressive energy intensified suddenly, overwhelming Kim Dong-sik.

“Sejun~nim, do you need anything?!”

When Kim Dong-sik asked Sejun,

“Need something?”

Sejun pondered. There was so much he wanted.
