nTL: Hanguk

nSejun made up his mind.

nHe would make this place his home!

nWith that determination, Sejun grilled the remaining piranhas for Theo.

nCrackle. Crackle.

nWatching the blazing fire, he thought.

n‘What do I need to live well?’

nHe didn’t think of using the tower coins that appeared since he believed he would eventually leave this place. He thought that hunters would come to rescue him if he just waited a little longer.

nSo, he didn’t increase anything except for the crops and cave family.

nHowever, now that he decided to settle down here, he thought he needed to fix the inconveniences he had experienced one by one and explore the surroundings of the cave.

n“Theo, are there any monsters near the cave?”

n“There aren’t any nearby!”

nAs Sejun’s mood brightened, Theo answered cheerfully.

n“But there are some farther away!”

n“What kind of monsters are they?”

n“Crimson Giant Bears.”

n“Crimson Giant Bears?”

nFor some reason, he thought of the red-furred monster that tried to attack the cave during the third Blue Moon.

n“It’s a really scary creature. It glares at me every time I pass by.”

nTheo said, shivering.

nGoing out of the cave was still dangerous.

n“But the situation will change in about a month.”

nSejun looked at the 732 rapidly growing cherry tomato trees and felt a sense of pride.

nSoon, thousands of flowers would bloom on the cherry tomato trees. As more flowers bloom, the queen poison bee will lay more eggs, and the number of poison bees will increase dramatically.

n“If that happens…”

nIf he can the increased number of poison bees patrol around the cave, he might be able to create a safe zone where monsters couldn’t approach.

n“And if I have the poison bees lift me using a rope made of green onion leaves…”

nSejun thought of a ways to leave the cave.

nFortunately, the magical cherry tomatoes had broken down the fat, so he didn’t have any belly fat.

n“Theo, this time…”

nSejun gave Theo a few instructions before he left for another trade.

n“Got it! Just trust me!”

nTheo took on the big mission and went down the tower again.

n*****

nOn the 153rd day of being stranded, the morning came again after Theo left yesterday.

n“Yawn.”

nSejun yawned as he woke up from his sleep, which was unusual for him. He hadn’t slept well due to his troubled mind.

nSqueak!

nChirp!

nCheep!

nPeep!

nThe rabbits came out of the burrow in a line, greeting him in the morning.

n“Yeah. Good morning.”

nBuzz buzz.

nThe poison bees also came out of their hive and started their morning routine. The sound of their wings was more energetic than yesterday. Their size was now almost indistinguishable from adult poison bees.

n“They’ve grown up.”

nThe poisonous honeybee truly lived up to the saying that they grew and developed rapidly each day.

nSejun had breakfast with the rabbits and started his daily routine.

nTap. Tap.

nAs Sejun was harvesting cherry tomatoes as usual,

nYou’ve harvested a ripe Magical Cherry Tomato.

nYour job experience increases very slightly.

nHarvesting Lv. 2 proficiency increases very slightly.

nYou’ve gained 12 experience points.

n“Is this one a plus grade too?”

nSejun looked at the cherry tomato with different experience points. He had already harvested 5 plus-grade cherry tomatoes today.

nMagical Cherry Tomato

nA cherry tomato grown inside the tower, providing ample nutrients and delicious taste.

nUpon consumption, it breaks down 10g of fat in your body, increasing your magic power by 0.1 for 10 minutes.

nThe effect can be stacked up to 10 times within an hour.

nWhen a non-awakener consumes it, it breaks down 10g of fat and invigorates their body.

nCultivator: Tower Farmer Park Sejun

nExpiration Date: 45 days

nGrade: E

nThe only difference when a is added to the grade is an extended shelf life.

nHowever, if you think about it differently, the extended shelf life of crops is a significant advantage.

n“It can be stored for a longer time.”

nPlop.

nSejun popped a cherry tomato into his mouth.

nJuicy.

nThe sour and sweet juice filled his mouth.

n“Uhm. Good.”

nIt wasn’t the tasteless flavor he used to experience from store-bought cherry tomatoes. Now realizing the delicious taste of self-grown and harvested cherry tomatoes after 27 years, he couldn’t help but feel regretful.

nPeep!

nSeeing Sejun eating something by himself, the black rabbit rushed over and pointed at itself with its paw. Me too!

n“Alright, let’s take a break for a moment!”

nSejun shared cherry tomatoes with the rabbits as they all took a short break, enjoying the fresh and delicious taste together. This peaceful life with his cave family made Sejun feel more content than ever, strengthening his resolve to protect and nurture this place.

nSejun shared cherry tomatoes with the rabbits during their break.

nSlurp. Slurp. Slurp.

nThe rabbits began to suck on the cherry tomatoes one by one.

n“I want to drink it too…”

nSejun enviously watched the rabbits.

n“Aha!”

nSejun suddenly had an idea and stood up.

nHe grabbed a tumbler and started to squeeze cherry tomatoes into it.

nSqueeze-! Squeeze-!

nAfter squeezing about 50 cherry tomatoes, he got a mouthful of juice.

nGulp.

nHe could fully enjoy the rich juice of cherry tomatoes in his mouth.

n“Yum!”

nSejun squeezed another 50 cherry tomatoes into the tumbler.

nThen,

nDrizzle.

nHe mixed in a drizzle of honey.

nHe took another shot.

n“Yum!”

nThe sour and sweet taste was enhanced with the addition of honey, which wrapped around both flavors smoothly. The honey filled the gap between the sour and sweet taste, making the transition between the two flavors smooth.

n“It’s delicious.”

nAt this moment, all his worries and concerns disappeared.

nPeep!

nPeek!

nPeep!

nThe rabbits looked at Sejun’s face and offered their cherry tomatoes to add honey!

n“Alright.”

nSejun carefully dripped a drop of honey onto each cherry tomato without letting it spill.

nSlurp. Slurp. Slurp.

nThe rabbits’ eyes widened as they ate the cherry tomatoes with honey. They discovered a new flavor combination of honey and cherry tomatoes.

nThen, the Tower’s administrator, who had been watching, sent a message.

nA new quest has been added.

nQuest: Serve a glass of honey-infused Magical Cherry Tomato Juice to the Tower’s administrator!

nReward: 1 job skill

nRefusal: Deep disappointment

n“I should get back to work now…”

nHe was taking a break. Now it was time to get back to work.

n“I’ll give it to you later.”

nThe Tower’s administrator requests to drink together to share the experience.

nThe Tower’s administrator emphasizes that the skill given as a reward for this quest is a good one.

n“Really?”

nThe Tower’s administrator loudly asks you to trust them.

n“Fine.”

nAlthough he couldn’t completely trust them, Sejun decided to give it a try.

nSejun squeezed 100 cherry tomatoes into the tumbler and poured honey in it.

nThe Tower’s administrator flaps their wings, expressing their curiosity about the taste of the juice.

n‘Do they really like it that much?’

nSejun realized that the Tower’s administrator had wings, learning one more piece of information about them.

n“Here you go.”

nAs Sejun sent the cherry tomato juice to the Tower’s administrator, the juice inside the tumbler disappeared cleanly.

nThe Tower’s administrator praises the juice, saying it’s incredibly delicious.

nYou have completed the quest.

nYou have acquired a Special Job Skill: Beekeeping Lv. 1 as a quest completion reward.

n“Special job skill?”

nSpecial Job Skill – Beekeeping Lv. 1 registers the user’s owned Poisonous Honeybee Hive to the skill.

nThe maximum number of hives that can be registered in Special Job Skill – Beekeeping Lv. 1 has been reached.

nThe Poisonous Honeybee Hive in Sejun’s cave was automatically registered to his beekeeping skill.

n“What is this?”

nSejun checked the details of the beekeeping skill.

nSpecial Job Skill – Beekeeping Lv. 1

n→ Enables beekeeping with the owned hive.

n→ The honeybees in the owned hive do not show hostility towards their owner.

n→ Specific instructions can be given to the honeybees in the owned hive.

n→ The activity range of the honeybees in the owned hive increases slightly.

n→ The queen bee’s egg-laying speed increases slightly.

n→ The honey-collecting speed of the bees increases slightly.

n→ The likelihood of increased humidity slightly increases.

n→ Currently owned hive (1

/1): Poisonous Honeybee Hive.

n“Wow.”

nSejun had been worried about whether the Poisonous Honeybees would understand and follow his patrol order, but with this skill, he felt a bit more relieved.

nThe skill effects were indeed subtle. However, the good thing was that many aspects were affected by the skill.

nAnd although the effects were subtle now, he had a feeling that they would grow like seeds and eventually bear significant fruit.

n“Thank you.”

nSejun spoke to the Tower’s administrator.

nThe Tower’s administrator requests that you make one more glass of honey-infused Magical Cherry Tomato Juice if you are grateful.

n“I have to work now. I’ll give it to you in the evening.”

nThe Tower’s administrator agrees and scrapes off the remaining juice stuck to the cup and puts it in their mouth.

nSejun resumed harvesting cherry tomatoes.

n***

nYou have obtained 1mL of honey from the cherry tomato flower.

nBeekeeping Lv. 1 proficiency has slightly increased.

nYou have obtained 1mL of honey from the cherry tomato flower.

nBeekeeping Lv. 1 proficiency has slightly increased. .𝒎

n…

n..

n.

nA message appeared every time the honeybees put honey into the water bottle that Sejun had stabilized with soil so it wouldn’t fall over.

n“You’re doing well.”

nSejun looked at the message with a proud expression.

nAt that moment,

nBuzz buzz.

nFive new baby honeybees appeared from the beehive. Perhaps due to the skill effect, the baby honeybees did not take out their stingers even though they were seeing Sejun for the first time.

nAnd then,

nWhirr whirr.

nBuzz buzz.

nThe baby honeybees began to suck honey following the adult honeybees. As a result, the honey production increased by about 20mL.

nThough only a little bit at a time, the situation in the cave was gradually getting better.

nWhile Sejun was watching the baby honeybees working hard to suck honey,

nSqueak!!

nSqueal!!

nBoing! Boing!

nExcited rabbits gathered in the carrot field and called Sejun. The reason for the rabbits to be excited in the carrot field was obvious. It was the carrots.

n“Are they already ripe?”

nWhen Sejun went to the carrot field, several carrots seemed ready to be picked as they revealed their orange bodies above the soil. Finally, it was time to harvest the carrots.

nSqueak!

nSqueal!

nBoing!

nThe rabbits looked at Sejun, blowing out hot breaths. With intense gazes, the rabbits were saying, “We are ready! We’re prepared to eat!”

n“Alright.”

nWith a tug, Sejun grabbed the carrot stem and pulled it upward, and the orange carrot came out smoothly. This time, the carrot was thinner than the one harvested during the Blue Moon. Still, with a thickness of about three fingers, it was an excellent carrot.

nYou have harvested the Agility Carrot.

nJob experience has slightly increased.

nHarvesting Lv. 2 proficiency has very slightly increased.

nYou have obtained 10 experience points.

nSejun checked the carrot’s options.

nAgility Carrot

nA carrot grown inside the tower that is delicious due to fully absorbing nutrients.

nUpon consumption, it breaks down 10g of fat in the body and increases agility by 0.1 for 10 minutes.

nThe effect can be stacked up to 10 times within an hour.

nWhen non-awakeners consume it, it breaks down 10g of fat and improves eyesight.

nCultivator: Tower Farmer Park Sejun

nExpiration date: 30 days

nGrade: E

n“Alright.”

nHaving checked the options, Sejun handed the carrot to the rabbits.

nWiggle wiggle.

nThe rabbits shook their heads and urged Sejun to eat. They had eaten the Blue Moon infused carrots first, and they seemed to feel sorry for eating this one first as well.

nHowever,

nDrip. Drip. Drip.

nAs they drooled…

n“Eat first. I can eat later.”

nWhen Sejun urged them again,

nSqueak!

nSqueal!

nBoing!

nThe rabbits collectively bowed in gratitude and took the carrots from Sejun’s hand.

nWas this really something to bow for?

nSejun hurriedly picked more carrots and handed them out to each rabbit.

nMunch munch.

nThe rabbits started eating the carrots they held in their arms eagerly. The taste of the carrots must have been delightful, as smiles never left the rabbits’ faces.

nSejun, too, watched the happy rabbits, rinsed a carrot in water to remove the dirt, and took a bite.

nCrunch.

nWith a refreshing sound, the unique flavor of carrots spread in his mouth.

nAnd then,

nMunch. Munch.

nThe sweetness that came out with every bite was so delicious.

nBoing?

nThe black rabbit held its carrot and sat next to Sejun, pressing his plump belly against Sejun’s side, as if asking “Is it delicious?”.

n“Yes.”

nSejun gave a thumbs-up in response.

nOn the 153rd day of being stranded, they were able to eat carrots every day.
