nTL: Hanguk

nAfter Theo left for the 38th floor, Se-jun and the rabbits finished their morning farming and had lunch.

nThe rabbit couple ate in the cave due to the baby rabbits, and only Se-jun and the adult rabbits ate on the surface with the baby bear.

nGrowl!

nThe baby bear ate 30 piranhas and growled, looking at Se-jun’s grilled fish with regret. It wanted to eat more!

nAs its growth was fast, its appetite was also increasing.

n“Here.”

nSe-jun cut his grilled fish in half and handed it to the baby bear.

nGrowl!

nThe baby bear bowed its head and accepted the grilled fish. It would eat it with great delight!

nChomp. Chomp.

nThe baby bear put the grilled fish in its mouth, chewed a few times, and swallowed it whole, bones and all.

nThen,

nGrowl.

nThis time, the baby bear cried while looking at the carrot the black rabbit was eating. It wanted that too.

nHowever,

nSqueal!

nThe black rabbit firmly refused. It couldn’t give up its carrot!

nGrowl…

nThe rejected baby bear turned away from the black rabbit. It was upset…

nAfter lunch,

nSlurp.

nSe-jun strolled through the ruined field while drinking coffee.

nAlthough he had been too dispirited to inspect it when the field he had diligently created was destroyed yesterday, he couldn’t always be like that. He had to till the ruined field again.

n“Fortunately, not everything was destroyed.”

nWhile he initially thought that the destruction of the field had completely ruined his farming, there were quite a few surviving crops.

nWhile Se-jun was looking around the field,

n“Huh?!”

nHe saw several dirt mounds about 7 meters high about 1 km away from the cave. What was that? It hadn’t been there before. Se-jun approached the dirt mounds out of curiosity.

n“What?!”

nThere were square holes about 7 meters deep next to the dirt mounds. Judging by the two round marks at the start of the hole, it seemed like a horned monster had poked the ground hard and dug in.

n“How strong must it be…”

nSe-jun was appalled by the monster’s strength and looked at the highest part of the dirt mound. Only the end was a different color. It was black.

nThud. Thud.

nSe-jun cautiously climbed up the dirt mound, stabbing it with his dagger and examined the black soil. The texture was different from the barren soil on the surface. It was not dry but soft and had adequate moisture content.

nAt a glance, it was soil full of nutrients. Such soil was beneath the barren land. If only he could turn the soil over and mix it…

nBut in the current situation, without farming equipment like a excavator or tractor, digging 7 meters deep into the ground was an unimaginable task.

nIt might be possible to do a little bit every day if he asked the mother Crimson Giant Bear, but recently due to the Blue Moon, the territories of the monsters were shaken, making the mother Crimson Giant Bear busy patrolling.

nSe-jun decided to be satisfied with the fact that he now knew there was high-quality soil under the ground.

nHaving looked around the field and returned to where he had lunch,

nSqueak.

nGrowl.

nThe black rabbit and baby bear who had been waiting for Se-jun were holding each other and sleeping, apparently having made up at some point.

n“Hey, wake up.”

nSe-jun woke them from sleep by patting their fluffy buttocks.

nSqueak…

nGrowl…

nThe black rabbit and the baby bear opened their eyes slightly while remaining in a sleepy state.

n“Guys, what do you think this is?”

nWhen Se-jun brought out dried sweet potatoes and honey,

nSqueak!

nGrowl!

nBoth barely opened their eyes and asked Se-jun for food.

nMunch munch.

nLick lick.

nThe black rabbit and baby bear woke up from sleep while eating the snacks Se-jun gave them.

n“Guys, let’s work.”

nThe snacks weren’t given for nothing.

nGrowl!

nThe baby bear, awake from sleep, dug its front paws into the ground and, like a plow, turned the soil by stepping backward lightly,

nSqueak, squeak!

nThe black rabbit flattened the ground with a hammer.

nAnd then,

nThud. Thud.

nThe shovel rabbits scooped out the soil and made a furrow.

nFinally, when the small field was completed, Se-jun planted sweet potato stems that he had cut from the sweet potatoes he had planted in the cave.

nYou have created a 10-square meter sweet potato field.

nYou have gained 20 experience points.

nAfter planting all the sweet potato stems, Se-jun left the baby bear and rabbits making the field and went down to the cave.

nIt was time to harvest the corn in earnest. Se-jun began to pick corn from the field.

nSnap.

nAs he broke off the corn,

nYou have harvested Well-Ripened Stamina Corn.

nYour job experience slightly increases.

nYour proficiency in Harvesting Lv. 4 slightly increases.

nDue to the effect of Proficiency Increase Lv. 1, your proficiency in Harvesting Lv. 4 increases by an additional 5%.

nYou have gained 20 experience points.

n“I wonder what effect the corn has?”

nSe-jun looked at the options of the corn.

nStamina Corn

nThis is corn grown inside the tower, full of nutrition and delicious.

nWhen consumed, it breaks down 20g of body fat and increases stamina by 0.2 for 10 minutes.

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

nWhen consumed by a non-Awakened, it breaks down 20g of fat and improves skin elasticity.

nCultivator: Tower Farmer Park Se-jun

nExpiration date: 60 days

nGrade: D

n“Skin elasticity?”

nIt was vague, but he thought it would be good since the content written on the item guarantees 100% effect.

n“Mom would love it.”

nSe-jun thought that he should soon convey his news to his family again, and this time he would also deliver his crops.

nIt could be disappointing that his crops were being sold outside under his name, but his actual family hadn’t eaten them yet.

nSnap. Snap.

nSe-jun harvested the corn again.

n***

nTower Floor 38.

n“Why isn’t the wandering merchant coming?”

n“Theo should have arrived by now…”

nThe hunters anxiously awaited Theo. They had received numerous requests to procure Magical Cherry Tomatoes this time.

nThis time, the requests were not from acquaintances but from tycoons whose wealth easily exceeded tens of billions of won.

nOutside the tower, rumors about the Magical Cherry Tomatoes spread among the wealthy, and they started to eat the magical cherry tomatoes like medicine every morning.

nThese were people overflowing with money. Scarce and good products attracted their attention, and currently, the price of one Magical Cherry Tomato on Earth had risen to about 500,000 won.

nThere were still plenty of wealthy people willing to pay more, but the price hadn’t risen because there were no sellers, thus no transactions.

nIf you just took out a Magical Cherry Tomato, there were plenty of buyers.

nTherefore, the hunters were ready to spend money as soon as Theo arrived. But Theo didn’t come.

nCould it be that we bought too cheaply in the last transaction, and he went to another floor?

nThe hunters began to feel increasingly anxious. And they thought that they should spend enough money this time.

nThey hadn’t considered that Theo might be late because he was busy picking cherry tomatoes and cutting green onion leaves in the cave. .

n***

n“Grrr. Hmmm… Did I lose consciousness again?”

nAileen would occasionally lose consciousness due to mana deficiency. She thought things had been fine lately as there hadn’t been any such incidents or seizures…

nAileen got up from her spot with a bitter expression.

nSwoosh.

n“Huh?!”

nAileen was taken aback by the unusual state of her body.

nUsually, when Aileen lost consciousness, it felt like her body was forcibly shutting down to survive, and when she woke up, her body felt extremely heavy.

nBut now, her body felt so light it seemed as if she could fly.

n“Why is my body so light? Ah! The Cherry Tomatoes!”

nOnly then did Aileen remember what had happened before she lost consciousness.

nThe Magical Cherry Tomatoes imbued with Blue moon’s energy!

nAs soon as she received the five blue magical Cherry Tomatoes from Sejun, Aileen immediately put them in her mouth and chewed. They were so delicious with their sweet and sour taste.

nWhile she was savoring the taste,

nThump. Bang. Thump. Bang.

nAlthough it was weak and slow, she felt the dragon heart start to beat in succession, then she lost consciousness and now she had woken up.

n“So, what about the Dragon Heart?”

nAileen hurriedly focused on her Dragon Heart.

n“……”

nThe Dragon Heart was so quiet that it was hard to believe that it had been beating. And she didn’t feel any mana at all.

n“Did I get my hopes up too much?”

nFeeling disappointed, Aileen approached the crystal ball to observe the human. She was sure they must have been enjoying delicious food while she was out.

nThen

nThump!

n“Ouch!”

nAileen’s head bumped into something as she entered the room where the crystal ball was.

n“Ugh! What is it?”

nAileen flinched and looked at what had hurt her. It was the door frame.

n“Why is that there?”

nThe door frame was approximately 10 meters away from her height, so unless she was flying, her head could not possibly touch the door frame.

n“What’s going on?”

nFeeling strange, Aileen went to the lake where she bathed to look at her reflection. The black dragon reflected in the water was bigger than the one Aileen knew.

n“Huh?! I’ve grown? Grrr.”

nAileen made a pleased noise and was admiring her appearance for a while when

n“Huh?! What was I going to do?”

nShe suddenly felt like she was forgetting something important.

nOh no!

nThis wasn’t the time. Aileen rushed to the crystal ball.

n“Just as I thought! That human was trying to eat something delicious without me!”

nJust then, Se-jun was taking steamed corn out of the pot in the crystal ball. It was perfect timing. Aileen, who always had good luck with food, felt lucky once again.

n***

nTonight’s dinner was dishes made with corn – steamed corn and grilled corn.

n“It’s done.”

nSejun started taking out the steamed corn one by one from the pot on the fire.

nJust then,

nThe Tower Administrator says they wants to taste the corn too.

nThe Tower Administrator says they would be happy with just one.

nA quest has been generated.

nQuest: Give corn dishes to the hungry Tower Administrator.

nReward: Very Grateful

nIf declined: Very Disappointed.

n“Just wait a bit. It’s not ready yet.”

nThe Tower Administrator nods, saying they can wait.

nWhile the steamed corn was cooling down, Sejun went to the charcoal fire where the grilled corn was being prepared.

nThe rabbits were slowly turning corn on a stick, pierced through a corn stalk, over the charcoal made from the wood the bear cub had brought. The corn was getting nicely grilled in the heat.

nBeside the rabbits, there was a tall stack of already grilled corn, about 30 pieces.

n“You can stop grilling now.”

nSqueak!

nBleeak!

nBling!

nAt Sejun’s words, the rabbits started taking one steamed corn and one grilled corn each from their spots.

nAnd then, Sejun picked up five pieces of steamed corn and five pieces of grilled corn.

n“Aileen, enjoy your meal.”

nYou have completed the quest.

nAs a reward for completing the quest, the Tower Administrator is very grateful.

n“Alright.”

nSejun gave the corn to Aileen and started eating his corn along with the rabbits.

nThe baby rabbits, eating corn beside Sejun without Theo around.

nBleeap!

nBling!

nThe baby rabbits tried to eat the corn, but it was still too big and hard for them to eat.

n“Let’s eat like this.”

nDrruk.

nSejun took the corn that the baby rabbit was eating, scraped off the corn kernels with a spoon, put them in a bowl, and gave it to the baby rabbits.

nNom nom.

nThe baby rabbits began to eat the corn kernels from the bowl with their front paws.

nAfter a while,

nBleea!

nBleam!

nBleat!

nThe baby rabbits showed their empty bowls and cried out to Sejun for more corn. They had already eaten quite a lot.

n“Just wait a moment.”

nWhen Sejun picked up another corn and turned his head to get the bowl,

n“Pff! What is this?”

nLaughter burst out at the sight of the baby rabbits. The baby rabbits were covered with corn kernels all over.

nAbout half of the corn kernels were eaten by the baby rabbits. The rest were stuck in their fur.

nBleea!

nBleam!

nBleat!

nThe baby rabbits had corn kernels all over their bodies and were protesting for more.

n“That’s why you run out.”

nSejun picked off the corn kernels stuck to the body of the baby rabbits one by one and put them in the baby rabbits mouths.

nBlee!

nBlee!

nBlee!

nThe baby rabbits stuck out their tiny mouths like baby birds and fought each other to eat.

n“Hey! Wait! I won’t give any to a moving rabbit.”

nSejun sternly held a baby rabbit and picked off the corn kernels stuck to its body one by one and fed them to the baby rabbits.

n“It was easier when Theo was here…”

nFor the first time, Sejun felt Theo’s absence. He missed Representative Theo.
