40th floor of the Black Tower.

“Theo~nim, over there!”

Leading the way, Uren pointed towards a shabby farm in the distance.

“Meow?! Is it for real, meow?”

Where Uren pointed, 10,000 swords were orderly embedded upside down in the ground. There really was a sword farm.

And believing in the ridiculous idea that swords could be grown, a single weasel was energetically running around, watering the swords.

It was still unclear whether this was a scam or just a failed business venture. However, from afar, the swords looked severely rusted to the extent that they appeared red.

Then,

“Theo~nim, look over there. They were originally the size of daggers, but it seems they’ve almost fully grown now!”

Uren spoke in an excited voice as he looked at the 10,000 rusted long swords stuck in the ground. Thanks to that, Theo became certain again.

‘Uren got scammed, meow!’

Swords growing, meow? That made no sense.

‘He’s a real sucker, meow! I want to easily make money by scamming Uren, meow!’

In Theo’s mind, 100 ways to easily obtain gold through scams came to mind.

But,

‘I can’t do that, meow! I, Vice Chairman Theo, am the assistant to the great detective Sherlock Sejun, meow! I cannot compromise with crime, meow!’

Thinking of Sejun, Theo steeled his heart once again.

While Theo was steadying his momentarily shaken resolve,

“Hey! Tolt!”

Uren called out authoritatively to the brown weasel, Tolt, who owed him a 100 billion Tower Coins.

Since he came to collect the money, Uren was in a dominant position.

At that moment,

“Ah…”

Just when Uren called him, Tolt tripped and fell to the ground.

“Huh?! Tolt, are you okay?”

Uren’s voice became softer, thinking it was his call that made Tolt fall. He was now talking in a lowered voice.

“No, it’s fine. But… Uren, did you come to collect money? As you can see, my situation is…”

Tolt clutched his leg, making a pitiful expression.

“Well… I guess so. When will it be possible then?”

Uren, now in a lower stance, asked Tolt when he could get the money.

“Well…there seems to be a lack of fertilizer, so the swords keep rusting…until a few days ago, 10 of them were legendary-grade swords…I think I need to buy more fertilizer.”

L-legendary grade? Then how much money would you need to buy fertilizer?”

Uren got excited at Tolt’s words. Now it was Uren who became desperate.

“No… how can I have the nerve to…”

“No, it’s okay! Just a little more and there will be ten legendary swords! I’ll lend you a bit more money! In exchange, sell those legendary swords to me.”

“Ahem. If Uren really insists on lending me more… just 20 billion Tower Coins…”

“Is that enough? I’ll just lend you 50 billion Tower Coins.”

At Uren’s words, Tolt’s mouth corners slightly rose before quickly dropping.

“I feel so bad about this. I’m always just receiving help…”

“We all help each other out. And later, you agreed to sell those legendary swords to me, right? I will even give you a proper price for them.”

Uren comforted Tolt, who felt apologetic. A true sucker was right here.
