Chapter 298: ck Tower is the Best!
<strong>TL: Hanguk</strong>
Park Sejun-nim, is this how its done?
Veronica asked as she wrapped sweet potatoes and potatoes in grapevine leaves.
The cooking had briefly paused with the appearance of Veronica.
When Sejun started cooking, Veronica said she would help by his side,
Then, please do this.
Sejun had her make roasted sweet potatoes and potatoes.
Yes. After making them like this, just put them in the fire.
Sejun said as he threw what Veronica made into the fire.
Yes! Leave it to me!
Thus, Sejun entrusted the cooking of the roasted sweet potatoes and potatoes to Veronica.
Climbing atop the giant hearth, Sejun put tower coins into the Artifact: Rice Dough that Devours Wealth,
Chaaa.
And began pouring rice flour into the boiling crab-shell pot.
Since rice flour could be endlessly produced with money, Sejun nned to use rice flour as the main ingredient for his cooking.
The menu he decided on was fish porridge and locust porridge.
They were easy to make and could be produced in any quantity.
Cuengi, bring out the fish.
Kueng!
[Understood!]
Responding to Sejun, who was busy pouring rice flour, Cuengi fetched the prepared fish from the void storage and dropped them into the crab-shell pot.
Ssh. Ssh.
A momentter,
Chaaa.
Sejun began pouring rice flour into another crab-shell pot.
Then,
Puhuhut. Chairman Park, Ive arrived, meow!
p.
Theo clung to Sejuns knee and spoke.
Vice Chairman Theo, have you already finished the contract?
Puhuhut. Yes, meow!
Theo, who had missed Sejuns knee even for a short while. I want to go to Chairman Park, meow!
He wanted to go to Sejun, but there were still hundreds of thousands left for the ve contract.
It would take hours to go to Sejun like this. This wont do, meow!
So, Theo immediately put those who had just be ves to work on writing the contracts,
The more ves they signed, the more ves they had, and they were done in no time.
Thus, Theo returned to Sejuns knee.
Vice Chairman Theo, wee back.
Sejun warmly greeted him. It was just the right timing for Theo to return when he was needed.
Puhuhut. Did Chairman Park miss me, meow?
Yes. Please chop this finely.
Sejun said as he threw the frozen locust meat into the crab-shell pot from the void storage.
Puhuhut. Leave it to me, meow!
ng.
Theo unsheathed his dragon ws,
Meow meow!
And diced the locust meat flying into the crab-shell pot.
Here we go!
Come on, meow!
As Sejun threw the locust meat and Theo diced it finely, repeating the process,
Whats this?!
Veronica, who was wrapping sweet potatoes and potatoes in grapevine leaves, felt a chilling premonition.
A premonition that made her hair stand on end.
Veronica stood up and turned her head towards the direction of the premonition.
Could it be?! Those are dragon ws?!
Veronica was shocked to discover the ck ws on Theos front paws.
Dragon ws?! Dragons never give their body parts to insignificant beings.
Ive never received such a thing
Veronica envied Theos ws.
However,
Tens of thousands of dragon scales engraved with Dragon Skin magic.
Hundreds of Dragon Warrior helmets.
Bracelets made from dragon horns.
If Veronica, who used to get nagged at by Tier Peten every day, had seen the items Sejun received from dragons, and soon, the dragon blood from nine dragon tribes,
She couldnt have even imagined it.
Puhuhut. Hows Vice Chairman Theos skill, meow?!
Our Vice Chairman Theo is doing great!
Puhuhut. Of course, meow! Chairman Park, throw it quickly, meow!
As Theo was finely dicing the locust meat with Sejuns encouragement,
-Khuhuhuhu. Hes here.
-Euhuhuhu. Its Tier, as expected. He came running right away.
-Phuhuhuhu. Since the Tower Farmer was taken Well, lets hurry and watch.
The dragon statues all stopped at once.
***
Kaiser, how dare you!!!
Tier Peten, the leader of the purple dragons, flew swiftly towards the ck Tower.
Have you arrived?
Kaiser greeted Tier as he came out.
Arrived?! You dare say that after stealing my Tower Farmer?!
Tier was even more infuriated by Kaisersposed demeanor.
Kaiser had a lot of pent-up frustration from Tiers constant nagging, intentionally provoking him.
And then,
Goooo.
As Kaiser anticipated, the enraged Tier gathered his energy, ready to confront him.
However,
What are you talking about? Stealing the Tower Farmer? Your Tower Farmer came to seek asylum on his own.
Kaiser, with a tone of injustice, further incited Tiers anger.
There was no reason for him to be angry as he was already winning the situation.
Of course, that only made Tier more infuriated.
What?! You think I would believe that?! Its clear to me that your Tower Farmer kidnapped our Ba!
Tier believed that Sejun had infiltrated the Purple Tower to kidnap Veronica.
But that was a statement made out of ignorance of Sejuns capabilities.
No, its not like that. Veronica used thend deed toe here herself. Oh?! Heree the witnesses.
What?! Witnesses?
As Tier looked around at Kaisers words,
Euhuhuhu. Witness 1 is here.
Phuhuhuhu. Witness 2 has arrived.
Kellion and Ramter, who came to watch the enraged Tier, approached withughter.
And then,
-Kaiser is right. She came to the ck Tower on her own.
-Yes. And Veronica stated herself that she sought asylum without any coercion.
Both confirmed the truth of Kaisers words.
How could our Ba?
Tier was shocked by the words of the three dragons.
I I need to go into the tower and talk to Ba myself.
Tier thought it was necessary to talk to Ba directly.
However,
No.
Kaiser tly refused.
Tier might harm Sejun,
Then thepetition would increase.
One morepetitor wanting to buy Samyangju and ck beans.
Shaking their heads, Kellion and Ramter seemed to agree with Kaiser from behind.
Just then,
Grandpa! What are you doing?!
Aileen appeared.
Aileen, sensing something off about Kaisers actions from a distance,
Is our Sejuns customers being kicked out?
Rushed over after Kaiser rejected Tiers proposal.
And then,
Greetings. Tier Petten~nim, leader of the Purple Dragons. My name is Aileen Pritani, and Im the administrator in charge of the ck tower.
Aileen politely greeted Tier.
Oh. The granddaughter is better than the grandfather.
Seeing Aileen treating him with respect, Tier mocked Kaiser.
However,
Khuhuhuhu. Of course. My granddaughter is so outstanding.
It didnt work on Kaiser at all. Indeed, the doting grandfather Kaiser.
Our granddaughter, you see
Ahem. Grand. Fa. Ther.
Aileen hurriedly stopped Kaiser, who was about to boast about her.
And then,
Tier-nim, to enter the ck Tower, you need a dragon statue and a contract promising not to kill anyone inside.
Aileen exined the conditions for entering the ck Tower to Tier.
A dragon statue and a contract?
Yes
Aileen exined why the dragon statue was needed and the content of the contract.
Understood. Then, Ill go make a dragon statue first!
Tier hurried back to the Purple Tower to create a dragon statue.
Ah. Tier-nim, just in case, bring a lot of tower coins too!
Aileen shouted towards Tier as he flew away.
Aileen was always kind to Sejuns customers.
***
Vice Chairman Theo, good work.
Puhuhut. Thats right, meow! I did work hard, meow!
Theo proudly praised himself in response to Sejuns words and then,
Plop.
Jumped off Sejuns knee and went to the front of the Creator Gods Tablet.
And then,
Shashashak. Shashashak.
He began to sharpen his dragon ws on the Creators Tablet, honing the edges of his ws.
Why the Creators Tablet, you might ask?
Only something as hard as the Creators Tablet can sharpen dragon ws.
Puhuhut. I always need to take good care of my dragon ws, meow!
Shashashak. Shashashak.
While Theo diligently sharpened his ws on the Creator Gods Tablet,
Um where did you get that?
Veronica approached, looking enviously at Theos dragon ws.
Puhuhut. Jealous, meow?!
Theo asked with a smug voice, pleased with himself.
Yes! Im so jealous! How did you get them?
Puhuhut. These dragon ws were given to me by Lord Kaiser, meow!
Theo boasted proudly, unting his dragon ws.
What?! Directly by Lord Kaiser?!
Veronica was astonished by Theos words.
Not just any great ck dragon, but Kaiser, the leader of the great ck dragons, gave him his ws?!
How how did you receive them?!
Veronica asked excitedly.
Puhuhut. Because I am Chairman Parks right hand, meow!
Really?! Thats amazing!
If I dedicate myself to Sejun-nim, ready toy down my bones here
Veronica imagined bing Sejuns left hand and receiving dragon ws.
Ive finished them!
Sejun hadpleted the fish porridge and locust porridge.
Cuengi, please move this over there.
Kueng!
[Understood!]
Cuengi carried the crab-shell pot with both front paws,
Thump. Thump.
And moved it to where the party participants were gathered.
You guys, move these.
Kkwek!
Sejun asked the mushroom ants to move the fruits.
The persimmons Sejun had harvested himself, and melons, bananas, peaches brought by other animals.
And then,
<em>Crop Gigantification.</em>
He used the skill to erge the cherry tomatoes and grapes.
While the mushroom ants were moving the fruits,
Crop Gigantification.
Sejun erged about 1000 magical cherry tomatoes,
Now, its time to erge the grapes.
As he took out a few bunches of vitality-infused fragrant grapes to use Crop Gigantification,
Kking!
ck fruit!
Fenrir, who had been watching Sejun, rushed towards the grapes.
ckie, no!
Sejun quickly raised his hand holding the grapes to stop Fenrir.
He remembered from YouTube that grapes were one of the foods dogs shouldnt eat.
Of course, Fenrir didnt understand Sejuns words,
Kking! Kking!
Hey! I sat down! Give me the ck fruit!
Squat.
Fenrir sat down obediently in front of Sejun, expecting the grapes. Are you going to give them now?
No choice then.
It would be troublesome if this happened every time he took out grapes.
Swoosh.
Pretending to pick a grape, Sejun took out a piece of ck royal jelly instead.
And then,
Here. Take this.
He gave the ck royal jelly to Fenrir.
Kking!
ck fruit, mine!
Fenrir, oblivious to the switch from grapes to ck royal jelly, was blindly fixated on the ck fruit.
Nom.
Fenrir bit into the ck royal jelly.
And then,
Kking
Endured it
Trying to withstand the bitterness, he fainted.
Sorry. But its for your own good.
Smirk.
Despite feeling sorry, Sejun couldnt help but smile.
Squat.
He picked up Fenrir andid him down in the bedroom before returning to his work.
Just then,
Um Sejun-nim, may I try one of those?
Bewitched by the fragrant smell of grapes she was experiencing for the first time in her life, Veronica looked at Sejun with earnest eyes and asked,
These grapes?
Yes.
Alright. Go ahead and eat.
Sejun cheerfully handed five bunches of vitality-infused fragrant grapes to Veronica.
Thank you!
Nom.
Veronica expressed her gratitude to Sejun and ate the grapes.
Oh my!
Veronica was amazed as she tasted the vitality-infused fragrant grapes.
Having always eaten tasteless food filled with poison in the Purple Tower,
There was food that tasted like this?! The ck Tower is the best!
One more reason not to want to return to the Purple Tower arose.
And then,
I guess I wont be able to eat this if I go back to the Purple Tower, huh?
It became even harder for Tier to bring Veronica back to the Purple Tower.
