“Everyone, gather around!”

As morning arrived, Sejun called Theo, Cuengi, Golden Bat, the rabbits, and the mushroom ants to the sweet potato field, which was ready for harvesting.

Once they all gathered,

“Do you know why I called you all here today?”

Sejun asked, waving Myler’s hoe so that everyone on the farm could see it.

“I don’t know, meow. Are we going to nap here, meow?”

No.”

Krueng! Krueng!

Cuengi knows! It’s mealtime!

“Cuengi, you just had breakfast.”

(So… is it punishment time?)

The Golden Bat, who hadn’t been able to return to Earth even after a week, spoke with a fearful expression. For some reason, even as time passed, the Golden Bat still couldn’t go to Earth.

“No, I won’t scold you just because you couldn’t go to Earth.”

Pip-pip!

Flap! Flap!

At Sejun’s words, the delighted Golden Bat flew around excitedly with a joyful cry. Then, the rabbits and mushroom ants answered, but the reply Sejun was looking for did not come out.

“Ta-da! Do you know what this is?! It’s the legendary farming tool, Legendary Land Moving, Myler’s Hoe!”

In the end, no one recognized Myler’s Hoe, so Sejun had to introduce his equipment like a salesman.

“Watch! I’ll show you the power of a legendary farming tool! Land Moving! Yap!” .

Sejun used the built-in skill by striking the land with Myler’s Hoe.

‘Turn over the ground!’

He strongly imagined the movement of the land he wanted and infused magic into Myler’s Hoe.

Boom.

The hoe struck the ground, and an area of about 10 square meters of ground began to ripple like a small wave.

And then,

You have harvested 1,321 Power Sweet Potatoes.

Your job experience has slightly increased.

Your proficiency in Harvesting Lv. 6 has slightly increased.

You have gained 66,050 experience points.

He had harvested the sweet potatoes hiding in the ground at once.

“Did you see? This is the power of a legendary hoe.”

Sejun boasted, and then

Pyeak!

Kkwek!

The rabbits and mushroom ants looked at him in awe.

‘Hehehe. Yes. This is it.’

This was why he called everyone over. To show off his legendary hoe.

Just then,

Krueng!

Cuengi quietly approached the sweet potato field, having watched what Sejun had done. I can do that too!

Krueng.

Thunk!

As Cuengi lightly struck the field with his stick,

Rumble.

With a heavy vibration, an area of 3300 square meters, the size of a small sports field, moved like a giant wave had hit it. Of course, the ground turned over, and the hidden sweet potatoes were revealed.

Pyeak!!!

Kkwek!!!

The rabbits and mushroom ants, who had been looking at Sejun in awe, now gazed at Cuengi in astonishment.

Cuengi had thought that Sejun would be pleased if he did the same thing. But he only brought disappointment to Sejun.

“Argh! Don’t do that!”

Thunk.

Sejun thrust Myler’s Hoe into the ground, shouting. His equipment was S grade, while Cuengi’s was A grade. But the result was a victory for A grade. No, a total win for Cuengi.

The pride of having a legendary farming tool cooled instantly. Indeed, a master doesn’t choose his equipment. Sejun decided to be satisfied with just having a farming tool.

And he went to pick up the harvested sweet potatoes. Picking them up seemed more helpful for farming.

Thus, the legendary hoe, treated as a strategic weapon, was left stuck in the field, abandoned.

***

“Hehehe. Indeed, the food tastes best after working.”

Sejun, with dirt on his face, eagerly peeled and ate roasted sweet potatoes. He had nearly harvested 50,000 sweet potatoes today, and picking them up had been quite exhausting

Krueng! Krueng!

That’s right! It tastes so good after working!

Cuengi enthusiastically nodded as he ate a roasted sweet potato.

“Yeah. Cuengi worked the hardest, so eat a lot.”

As Sejun handed a peeled roasted sweet potato to Cuengi,

Krueng!

Cuengi happily devoured it.

“Chairman Park! Me too! Give me a Churu, meow!”

Theo, who had done nothing but could always enjoy tasty Churu, spoke to Sejun. He didn’t like that Sejun’s attention was focused on Cuengi.

“Sure. Our Vice Chairman, Theo, who didn’t do anything, can also have a Churu.”

“Puhuhu. Vice Chairman Theo can have two Churus even without doing anything, meow!”

Sejun spoke firmly, but since his words were soft, Theo, who took them as a compliment, responded cheerily.

Chomp, chomp, chomp.

As Sejun was feeding Theo some Churu,

Flap, flap.

– Ha ha ha! Delicious! Sejun, do you have any more makgeolli?

Kaiser, who had flown in high spirits after feasting on roasted sweet potatoes and alcohol, asked.

“That was the last of it.”

– Ah! Shouldn’t you have made more?

“I didn’t even get to taste it.”

Fortunately, once the rice flour dough was steamed and kept in a warm place, nuruk1 was made, and with that, makgeolli had been brewed.

Although it needed more aging, Kaiser insisted on trying just one sip, so a glass was given. One glass turned into two, and Kaiser eventually drank all the remaining makgeolli.

– Ahem… Should I go see what Kellion is up to?

Feeling embarrassed, Kaiser, having had his fill, went to find Kellion, who was engrossed in eating sweet potato soup.

And then,

“Huh?!”

From afar, Sejun, who was eating roasted sweet potatoes, saw a large group of people approaching. At the front of the formation was Iona. It appeared she had gone out to meet them, having briefly left the day before.

“Kyoot Kyoot Kyoot. Sejun, I’m here.”

“Uh-huh. Are they people from the wizard tower?”

Sejun asked, looking at the wizards behind Iona. There were almost 1000 wizards.

The wizards of the Gravity Wizard Tower had gone dismantle the Flame, Destruction, and Meteor Wizard Towers, and the wizards there had joined the Gravity Wizard Tower without much resistance.

“Yes. But could we stay here for a day and then go south?”

They would have to fight fire ants immediately upon going south. Iona wanted to rest here for the day and restore the wizards’ stamina. She was, of course, also eager to get a good night’s sleep.

“Sure. Do as you please.”

“Yes! Thank you, Sejun. We’ll rest here and move tomorrow!”

Upon receiving Sejun’s permission, Iona turned around and shouted. The wizards hurriedly set up tents in the empty field and began chewing fist-sized green balls.

Chomp, chomp.

Krueng?

Cuengi, intrigued by what the wizards were eating, began to loiter around. What’s that?

Judging by the expressions of the wizards chewing the green balls, it seemed like the taste could be known without trying them, but Cuengi still wanted to taste it. Conversely, the wizards were interested in the roasted sweet potatoes Cuengi was holding.

“Want to trade and eat?”

When one wizard asked, offering an uneaten green ball,

Krueng!

Cuengi nodded and swapped its roasted sweet potato for the green balls.

“Kyoot kyoot kyoot.”

Iona laughed, as if foreseeing the next scene.

And then,

Krueoooong!!!

Cuengi gulped down the green ball in one bite and screamed. It’s bitter!!!!

The green balls were made with the special magic of the Gravity Wizard Tower for the wizards, and each Wizard Tower had a similar item made from their special magic.

The green ball provided the body with the necessary nutrients and removed waste to allow mana to flow smoothly. However, there was absolutely no consideration for taste.

Since joining a wizard tower, one of the hardest things for the wizards had been eating the balls made from the Wizard Tower’s magic at every meal.

“Is it that bitter? Should I try it too?”

“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Eating the green ball helps remove waste from the body.”

“Really?”

Intrigued by Iona’s words, Sejun exchanged a roasted sweet potato with a wizard and bit into the green ball. As soon as he tasted it, the bitterness stung his tongue.

“Blech!”

It was really bitter! Like Ginseng Tea. Some people have to taste something themselves to know whether it’s poop or soybean paste2. Sejun was one of those people. He was in no position to scold Cuengi. It was truly a case of ‘like father, like son.’

Still, hearing that it would remove waste from his body, Sejun endured the bitterness and ate the entire green ball.

However,

You have consumed the Gravity Tower’s green ball.

The waste from your body has already been removed.

There is no effect.

Since Sejun had already removed waste from his body by eating suyuk and fire carrot wine, there was hardly any waste left in his body.

“I ate it for nothing!”

Kruengengeng.

Cuengi laughed, clutching its belly, at Sejun’s furious expression.

“Cuengi, are you laughing? Vice Chairman Theo, it’s time for revenge!”

“Understood, meow!”

Sejun and Theo began to tickle Cuengi, and

Kruengengeng.

Cuengi laughed until he was out of breath.

“Kyoot kyoot kyoot.”

In the meantime, Iona quietly curled Theo’s tail and closed her eyes.

“Let’s get to work now.”

Sejun, having taken his revenge on Cuengi, started the afternoon’s farming, and the wizards either rested or looked around.

Thump.

Boom.

Sejun wielded the hoe and used the land-moving skill to overturn the ground and harvest the potatoes. Earlier, he had been upset, but it was clear that Myler’s hoe was a great farming tool, just by being able to turn the ground like this.

The more he used it, the more accustomed he became, and the area of the ground he was able to turn increased little by little. It was fun seeing the growth.

‘If I keep doing this, I’ll be able to turn over a wide piece of land like Cuengi, won’t I?’

Thinking about moving forward like that, Sejun harvested the potatoes when

You have leveled up.

You have acquired a bonus stat 1.

He reached level 56 by leveling up. He increased his strength, which had the lowest stat value.

“Great! Hehehe. Using the hoe definitely made leveling up faster.”

Sejun said, gripping Myler’s hoe. Even though tenant farmers could gain experience just by working, it was only 5% of the total experience. It couldn’t compare to Sejun working himself.

“Time for a break.”

Kkwek!

He sat down, looking at the ten mushroom ants following behind him, picking up the harvested potatoes. Judging by the speed of the mushroom ants, he had about 30 minutes to rest.

“Here, eat one each.”

Sejun took honey jelly from his pocket and handed one each to Theo, Cuengi, Iona, and the golden bat. They all had talents related to magic and consumed it like a supplement every day.

Gulp.

You have consumed a Poisonous Honey Bee’s Cherry Tomato Honey Jelly.

Talent: Enhanced Magic Circuit is slightly strengthened.

He didn’t feel a significant change in his body, but he didn’t doubt it as it was displayed in a message.

Then,

The Tower’s Administrator says she has eaten all the honey jelly you gave her and wants more.

“Ah! Really? Here you go.”

Sejun sent a glass jar full of honey jelly to Aileen. She ate about 20-30 honey jellies a day, so he gave her 500 at a time.

The Tower’s Administrator says, thank you.

“No, eat quickly and get healthy.”

While Sejun was talking to Aileen,

Pip-pip?

The golden bat was suddenly startled by the fluctuating mana in its body.

(Huh?! Sejun! I think I’m going to Earth!)

“Right now?”

Poof.

The golden bat disappeared before it could answer.

“I wonder what it will bring?”

Sejun’s voice was filled with anticipation.

However,

“Why isn’t it coming back?”

This time, the golden bat didn’t return even after a minute had passed.

***

(I need to find something Sejun likes!)

Flap. Flap.

The golden bat, which had traveled to Earth, hurriedly looked around to find something to take.

And,

(It’s Choco Pie!)

The golden bat, having diligently learned to read Korean, found food covered in the chocolate that Sejun wanted.

Flap. Flap.

The golden bat swiftly flew and grabbed two Choco Pies with its feet, waiting to return to the tower.

But,

Pip-pip?

For some reason, the golden bat could not return to the tower.
