<strong>TL: Hanguk</strong>
“Why do I have to do this kind of work?!”
This is so hard…
If this keeps up, my elegant golden fur that I’ve taken care of so diligently will bepletely ruined!
Lui Gorgon, the second prince of the Gorgon Kingdom who had now be a temporary employee of Sejun Company, was struggling to walk while carrying a cherry tomato in each hand.
At that moment,
Huh?! Why are there so many creatures here with such lowly colors here?!
Lui wrinkled his face in disgust upon spotting a puppy with ck fur.
In the ck Tower, the darker the fur color, the more preferential treatment one received. However, that wasn’t the case in Hamk.In Hamk, golden fur signified royalty or nobility, yellow, blue, and green fur denoted the aristocracy, brown fur representedmoners, and ck fur was the color of the lowest ss.
Additionally, there was an old legend passed down in Hamk about a pure white hamster who would one day appear to save the world, but for thousands of years, no such pure white hamster had ever been seen.
Of course, this obsession with fur color was mainly a concern for the royals and nobles.
So Lui, a royal who loved distinguishing by color, felt even more displeased, wronged, and angry about being beaten by ck bears with the color of the lowest ss.
I’ve found you at the right time!
Lui decided to vent his frustration from his earlier humiliation on this ck-furred puppy, yelling and intimidating it.
Kking! Kking!
The ck puppy barked feebly as if angry and made a pathetic attempt at a headbutt.
How dare this lowly creature!
Since it was such a trivial attack, Lui decided to let it hit him once and then retaliate.
However,
Boom.
“Huh?! Where am I?”
The moment he collided with the puppy, the world suddenly changed and
Thud! Thud!
“How dare a insignificant thing like you tell the great ckie to move aside?!”
His opponent had changed too. Into something huge and terrifying.
“Was it you?! The one who dared to be rude to great ckie-nim, the noble wolf who hunts demon kings?!”
“Great ckie-nim! I’ll seal this fool with thorny spiderweb so he’ll suffer eternal torment!”
Then, seven subordinates of ckie also revealed their massive forms, ring murderously at Lui.
“P-please spare me! This lowly one failed to recognize the great ckie-nim!”
Lui immediately dropped to the ground, bowing as tly as possible and begging for forgiveness. Under the overwhelming pressure and terror, all he could do was beg. ?
“Fine. I’ll forgive you this time. Great ckie is merciful after all.”
Ah, I’m so cool!
Feeling his anger from being tricked by Sejun dissipate, ckie said
“Let’s go.”
“Yes!”
Thud. Thud.
With that, ckie and his subordinates left Lui’s mental world.
While ckie was giving Lui mental education,
“Chairman Park, Vice Chairman Theo, Boss, wee.”
The ck bears of the Kueng gang bowed at a 90 degree angle to Sejun, Theo, and Cuengi.
Kyuui!
Kyuui!
The hamsters trailing behind the ck bears cautiously bowed to Sejun as well.
“Hmm. So, what’s with these hamsters?”
Sejun asked while looking around at Lui who was sleeping(?) with ckie and the other hamsters.
“Ah. These employees are…”
One of the ck bears began exining how the hamsters had be part of thepany.
“Oh, I see. So they’ve signed five-year contracts as employees?”
“Yes, that’s correct.”
“Hahaha. Good work.”
Sejun was pleased after hearing the exnation.
Bringing the local hamsters along when heading to Hamk would undoubtedly be helpful in various ways.
“I’ll take these guys with me.”
“Yes, of course.”
And so, the affiliation of 10,000 hamsters changed to directly under the Chairman.
“Alright then, everyone, let’s head out. Kalchi, go on ahead and wait for us.”
Chuee!
[Understood!]
Since the hamsters and Sejun used different pathways, Sejun agreed to meet Kalchi at the capital of the Thunham Empire and moved to the northern exclusive passage.
Then,
Clink.
Sejun ced his hand on the ck hole-like opening in the floor.
[Currently, there are two avable destinations.]
[Please choose your destination.]
– Earth (Lv. 1)
– Hamk (Lv. 7)
A message appeared.
“Hamk.”
[Currently, twelve individuals are attempting to use the exclusive passage.]
[Would you like to pay the stay fees for all twelve and proceed to Hamk?]
“Yes.”
When Sejun responded, the system began calcting the stay fees.
[Calcting the stay fee based on the stats and rank of Park Theo.]
[The stay fee is 150 million Tower Coins per hour.]
[Calcting the stay fee based on the stats and rank of Park Cuengi.]
[The stay fee is 100 million Tower Coins per hour.]
[Calcting the stay fee based on the stats and rank of Park Paespaes.]
[The stay fee is 10 million Tower Coins per hour.]
“Oh! It’s definitely cheaper!”
When traveling to Earth, just the stay fees for the three of them had exceeded 1 trillion Tower Coins, but now it was only 260 million Tower Coins.
It had be incredibly affordable.
[Calcting the stay fee based on the stats and rank of Park Sejun.]
Next up was Sejun’s turn.
Hehehe. How much will mine be?
Sejun eagerly checked the message.
[The stay fee is 500,000 Tower Coins per hour.]
[
have been confirmed.]
[An additional 1 million Tower Coins are added to the stay fee per hour.]
[
has been confirmed.]
[An additional 900,000 Tower Coins are added to the stay fee per hour.]
[
has been confirmed.]
[An additional 2 million Tower Coins are added to the stay fee per hour.]
With all the powersbined, the total was 4.4 million Tower Coins per hour.
…
Am I really this cheap?!
Sejun had been pleased when hispanions’ stay fees had gone down, but now that his own cost was so low, he felt offended.
But…
When traveling to Earth, the additional cost for the
had been 1 trillion Tower Coins. Now, it was only 1 million, a difference of six zeros.
And the level difference between Earth and Hamk was six.
So, does this mean that for every level difference between worlds, the stay fee decreases by a factor of ten?
While Sejun was figuring out the principle behind the stay fees,
[Calcting the stay fee based on the stats and rank of Park ckie.]
It was finally time for ckie family.
Kking!
[Guys, hide.]
“Yes!”
Kkiruk!
Shaang!
…
..
.
At ckie’smand, his subordinatespletely hid themselves within ckie’s fur.
Then,
[<Bloodline: Noble Wolf> have been confirmed.]
[An additional 1 billion Tower Coins are added to the stay fee per hour.]
[
have been confirmed.]
[An additional 500 million Tower Coins are added to the stay fee per hour.]
…
..
.
Thankfully, ckie’s subordinates managed to ride for free, but ckie alone racked up a stay fee of 120 billion Tower Coins per hour.
Heheh! Butler! Now you know who the real super Sunfish is, right?!
As ckie looked at Sejun with a triumphant expression, feeling proud,
Just at you, a super Sunfish with good lineage that only ends up costing me a fortune. ckie, you better realize how lucky you are to have met me.
Sejun also looked at ckie with a smug expression.
A momentter,
[With your current funds, you can stay for more than 10 days.]
[Moving to Hamk.]
Sejun and his party headed to Hamk.
***
Hamk
The sudden disappearance of hamsters had thrown various nations into chaos.
This was because the children of royal and noble families had vanished without warning.
On top of that, ordinary citizens were also going missing, causing public sentiment to be greatly unsettled.
The sudden appearance of ck towers, the mass disappearances, and even the swarms of locusts devouring crops, everything seemed like a bad omen.
The kings of various nations held meetings to devise countermeasures for finding the missing people.
“Ever since that ck tower appeared, disappearances have been urring all over.”
“It seems highly likely that the tower is connected to the disappearances.”
“We must send an investigative team!”
The meetings were mostly reaching the conclusion that the towers needed to be investigated.
Thus, as the nations began forming teams to investigate the ck towers that had appeared in their capitals,
Kyuui!
Kyuui!
“Huh?!”
The missing hamsters began emerging from the ck towers.
***
[You have arrived in Hamk.]
“Where is this?”
Sejun looked around.
A mountain?
104.28.193.250
As he observed the thick clouds beneath him and the sharp peaks that seemed to pierce the sky,
[A quest has been triggered.]
[Quest: Defeat the destruction invading Hamk. If the current state continues, Hamk will be destroyed in 20 years.]
Reward: Peace in Hamk
[A quest has been triggered.]
[Quest: ave Hamk’s hero Bochi. If Bochi dies, the speed of Hamk’s destruction will be elerated by 10 years.]
Reward: Inherit one of the skills of Hamk’s hero Bochi
Two quest messages appeared in rapid session.
“Hamk’s hero Bochi?”
Sejun didn’t know who Bochi was, but he seemed like a very important hamster. The fact that Hamk’s destruction would elerate twice as fast just from Bochi’s death made that clear.
“But how am I supposed to save him if I don’t know where he is?”
System, is this how you’re going to do things?!
As Sejun cursed the system for not providing proper information,
Bang! Boom!
A loud explosion was heard from below the clouds.
That sounds like a fight…
“Cuengi, let’s head over there.”
When Sejun pointed toward the source of the sound while holding Cuengi,
Kueng!
Cuengi quickly used telekinesis to descend through the clouds.
And then,
Kkyuk!
They found a ck hamster fighting two giant ogres with a sword that looked as thin as a toothpick.
[Hamk’s Hero, Grand Swordmaster Bochi]
It was Bochi, the one Sejun had been looking for.
Kkyuk! Kkyuk!
Bochi was fighting valiantly, but,
Kuoooo!
Boom!
It was too much to handle against two ogres.
Kyuuuk…
Bochi was gradually being pushed back by the ogres’ relentless attacks.
“Guys, attack the ogres!”
“Got it, meow!”
Kueng!
At Sejun’smand, Theo and Cuengi swiftly charged toward the ogres.
Puk!
One ogre was knocked out cold by Theo’s front paw striking the back of its head.
Bang!
Crackle!
The other ogre was struck on the head by Cuengi’s thunderbolt staff, its body trembling before copsing unconscious.
And just like that, the battle was over in an instant.
“I’ll take you to your king. Come over here.”
Sejun ced his hand on the ogres’ bodies, collecting battle aura to transport them.
“All done. Finish them off.”
“Puhuhut. Got it, meow! Meow!”
Kueng!
Puk!
Bang!
At Sejun’s instruction, Theo and Cuengi finished off the ogres.
[You have leveled up.]
[You have gained 1 bonus stat point.]
[Strength has increased by 30.]
[Strength potential has increased by 1%.]
[A quest has been triggered.]
Sejun leveled up, reaching Level 134.
[You have saved Hamk’s hero Bochi.]
[You havepleted the quest.]
[As a reward forpleting the quest, you may inherit one skill from Hamk’s hero Bochi.]
Simultaneously, a questpletion message appeared.
Kkyuk!
[Thank you for helping me!]
Having recovered somewhat, Bochi approached Theo and Cuengi, offering a bow of thanks with sped paws.
Then,
Kkyuk. Kkyuk. Kkyuk!
[The Great Will hasmanded me to pass one of my skills to you. Even though I find your talent quitecking, one cannot go against the Great Will. Bow to me at once!]
Bochi, now addressing Sejun in an arrogant tone, demanded that he bow in order to receive the skill.
I’m the boss here.
Annoyed by Bochi’s dismissive attitude, Sejun made a sullen expression.
“Meow?! How dare you try to make the Great Hybrid Chairman Park bow to you, meow?!”
Kueng?! Kueng!
[Are you looking down on my dad because you think he’s weak?! Cuengi is angry now!]
Kking?! Kking!
[How dare you try to make my butler bow to you?! Do you want to get headbutted by the great ckie and cry?!]
The atmosphere quickly turned tense.
Kkyuk… Kkyuk… Kkyuk…
[No… I didn’t mean you have to bow… Please, just let me pass my skill to you!]
Bochi, the hero of Hamk and a Grand Swordmaster, hurriedly changed his tone and began deliberating on which skill to pass to Sejun.
***
99th Floor of the ck Tower.
Wizard Tower Chairman’s Room in ck Park-Ai Wizard Tower.
Crrreak.
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot! My training is finally over~!”
Now, I must go see Theo~nim!
As space split apart, Iona, havingpleted her closed-door training, appeared with a beaming smile.
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Search.”
Iona began searching for Theo, but,
Kyoot?!
She couldn’t sense Theo’s energy.
“Kyoo kyoo kyoo, Theo~nim is gone!”
Koooooo…
An ominous aura began emanating from Iona, radiating a powerful energy iparably stronger than before.
“I-it’s the third stage of Kyoo!”
While the wizards of the ck Park-Ai Wizard Tower trembled in fear,
“Kyoot?! Ah. Is that so?”
Thankfully, Aileen informed Iona of Theo’s whereabouts, instantly dispelling the third stage of Kyoo.
