Chapter 465: Black Rabbit Jr.?

nTL: Hanguk
n99th Floor of the Black Tower.
nMorning of the 444th day since entering the tower.
nSnore.
nSejun was sleeping in late.
nDue to the fatigue from the battle(?) with Delia that hadn’t yet worn off, and the exhaustion from transporting Destruction Devourers all day yesterday, the tiredness had piled up again.
nGororong.
nSince Sejun hadn’t woken up, it was natural that Theo also hadn’t woken up.
nKkirorong.
nEomorong.
nKkirurung.
nSharorong.
nBlackie and his subordinates were also enjoying a rare late sleep.
nAt that moment,
nTiptoe, tiptoe.
nA pure white baby rabbit, as white as a snowflake, cautiously approached Sejun’s pillow.
nPPIIII!!!!!
nThe rabbit screamed loudly right into Sejun’s ear.
n“Aaaagh!!!”
nOuch, my ears!
nSejun woke up screaming from the sudden high-pitched sound.
n“What, meow?! Who dares to disturb our great Chairman Park, meow?!”
nKking?! Kking?!
nWho is it?! Who touched the butler?!
n“Great Blackie~nim, open your eyes! It’s not that side, it’s this side!”
nKkiruk!
nShalarrang!
nThanks to Sejun’s scream, Theo and the entire Blackie family were startled awake, causing a commotion.
nAnd then,
nPhehehe.
nA baby rabbit with three black dots on its back, holding a tiny hammer about 1
/100th the size of Black Rabbit’s, was giggling while looking at Sejun.
n‘What’s with this little guy?’
nIt looks similar to Black Rabbit?
nAs Sejun thought of Black Rabbit while looking at the baby rabbit,
nPpyak!
nBlack Rabbit Jr.! Didn’t I tell you to stay put!
nBlack Rabbit hurriedly rushed into the bedroom and scolded the baby rabbit.
n“Black Rabbit Jr.?”
nSo, is it Black Rabbit’s son?! You did it, Black Rabbit!
nSejun looked at Black Rabbit with pride.
n‘But if you shout at a kid like that…’
nHaving already experienced raising rabbits, he could naturally foresee the next situation.
nPpaeaeaeg! Ppaeaeaeg!
nDad yelled at me! I hate you, Dad!
nAs Sejun expected, the baby rabbit started crying sorrowfully after being scolded by Black Rabbit.
nPpyak… Ppyak?!
nBlack Rabbit Jr., why… why are you crying?!
nBlack Rabbit, flustered after making his son cry, was utterly at a loss.
nThe crying of a 10-day-old baby rabbit was pure terror for the novice father Black Rabbit.
nAn invincible move that couldn’t be defended against.
nUncle, help me!
nBlack Rabbit, at a loss for what to do, sent Sejun a pleading look for help, and
nHehe. Is it time for me to step in?
nSejun grinned confidently and pulled out some sugarcane from his pocket.
n“Why are you crying? Here. Eat this. It’s really tasty, you know?”
nAs Sejun patted Black Rabbit Jr.’s back and naturally placed the sugarcane in its mouth,
nPpae…aeaeg?
nCrunch. Crunch.
nBlack Rabbit Jr. quickly stopped crying and started chewing on the sugarcane, focusing intently on its sweet juice.
nPpyak! Ppyak!
nMeanwhile, Sejun managed to ask Black Rabbit why he brought Black Rabbit Jr. to the 99th floor of the tower.
nHe said there was a legend in the Red Ribbon Kingdom about the strongest black rabbit born with three black dots on its back.
nA being destined to lead the Red Ribbon Kingdom to a golden age with its immense power.
nBlack Rabbit said that he came to the 99th floor of the tower, where the Minotaur King resides, to have his son, who was destined for such a fate, undergo the best training from a young age.
n“Isn’t it too early for him to receive special training from the Minotaur King?”
nPpaerorong.
nAs Sejun asked in a concerned voice while looking at Black Rabbit Jr., who had already fallen asleep in his arms after finishing the sugarcane,
nPpyak! Ppyak!
nNo way! My son is probably stronger than Uncle!
n“Eh?! That can’t be right!”
nNo matter how weak I am, I’m not weak enough to lose to a 10 day old rabbit.
nPpyak! Ppyak!
nNo way! My son was born strong!
n“Then let’s go ask the Minotaur King.”
nPpyak!
nAlright!
nThus, Sejun and Black Rabbit decided to go ask the Minotaur King who was stronger.
nIn the middle, Theo and Cuengi greeted Black Rabbit before heading off to the Green Tower and the Western Forest for work.
nA little later.
nMoo.
nSejun~nim lasted 3 minutes with two fingers, while this one lasted 2 minutes and 40 seconds.
n“See! What did I tell you?!”
nHeh. As expected, I’m stronger.
nSejun, who beat Black Rabbit Jr. by a 20 second difference, smiled brightly at Minotaur King’s words.
nAnd then,
n“Heave-ho!”
nAfter Sejun underwent his special training,
nPpiiii!!!
nNext, as Black Rabbit Jr. endured Minotaur King’s two fingers during his special training,
nPpyak!
nUncle, could you give our son a name?
nBlack Rabbit cautiously approached Sejun and made a careful request.
n“A name? I thought Black Rabbit Jr. was his name?”
nPpyak! Ppyak!
nThat’s just what we’ve been calling him because he doesn’t have a name yet, and I’d like Uncle to name our son! ChuChu also said she’d like Uncle to name him!
nThere was a tradition among rabbits that the higher the being who named them, the longer and more prosperous their life would be.
nSo Black Rabbit asked Sejun, the highest being in the Black Tower except for the dragons, to name Black Rabbit Jr.
n“Really?! Alright, give me a moment.”
nAnd so, Sejun’s naming shop, which had been closed for just a few days, reopened.
nSejun hurriedly started thinking of a name that would suit Black Rabbit Jr.
nSince he has three black spots on his back, so… Jeomsami. (TL: ?? which means Three Dots)
nSince he’s Black Rabbit Jr., maybe… BlackTwo. (TL: BlackTwo or Heuktoo which is just a combination of Black & 2 )
n104.28.193.250
nSince he says Ppaegppaeg… Ppaegppaegi. (TL: Ppaegppaeg is the sound Black Rabbit Jr. makes while talking)
n“Hmm…”
nIt’s tough to choose.
nFor some reason, all the names he came up with today seemed perfect.
nAt that moment, a sudden question popped into his mind.
n“Black Rabbit, will those dots on his back stay forever?”
nThis was a very important issue because if the dots disappeared, he wouldn’t be Jeomsami anymore.
nPpyak!
nThey will disappear eventually!
nThat was close. Jeomsami is out.
nIt was also really fortunate for Black Rabbit Jr.
nJust as Sejun was about to dismiss the name Jeomsami,
n“Huh?!”
nHe noticed the small hammer on Black Rabbit Jr.’s back.
nA rabbit and a hammer… Torch? (TL: The word ‘Torch’ is a combination of ‘rabbit’ and ‘hammer’. ‘??’ (tokki) means ‘rabbit’, hence ‘To’ is derived from ‘rabbit’. ‘??’ (mangchi) means ‘hammer’, so ‘Chi’ is derived from ‘hammer’, making it ‘Tochi’ (??) which is a Korean translitration for English word ‘Torch’. )
nTorch.
nIt had a nice ring to it.
nBut it lacks a bit of impact… Since he’s Black Rabbit…
n“Black Torch?!” (TL: The alternatives would be ‘Heuk tochi’ Here Heuk means black or ‘Black Ramer’ or ‘Black Tochi’. Let me know which one you guys prefer.)
nOh my goodness!
nSejun was amazed that he had come up with such an excellent name. A thrill ran through his whole body and he got goosebumps.
nAnd then,
nShiver.
nBlack Rabbit Jr., who was receiving special training from the Minotaur King, no, the poor rabbit who was about to receive the new name Black Torch, also shivered.
nMoo. Moo.
n2 minutes and 40 seconds are up. Next, Black Rabbit, come on.
nPpyak!
nAs Black Torch’s special training ended, the Minotaur King called Black Rabbit for his turn.
nAnd then,
nPpeeee…
nExhausted after the training, Black Torch collapsed onto the ground.
nKihihit. Kking! Kking!
nHehehe. Welcome, rookie! From now on, your name is Black Torch!
n“Nice to meet you, Black Torch!”
nKkiruk!
nShalarrang!
nBlackie and his subordinates warmly welcomed Black Torch, who had just received his name from Sejun.
nHowever,
nPpyek! Ppyek! Ppyek!
nI hate Black Torch! I’m just going to stick with Black Rabbit Jr.! And don’t you guys act all high and mighty when you’re weaker than me!
nBlack Torch stomped the ground angrily, rejecting the embarrassing name Sejun had given him, ignoring Blackie and his subordinates.
nAnd then,
nKking! Kking?! Kking!
nBlack Torch is actually a really good name among those the butler has given! And you dare say we’re weak?! Guys, show him how scary we can be!
n“Yes! Great Blackie~nim!”
nKkiruk!
nShalarrang!
nThud.
nBlack Torch had to pay a terrifying price after receiving the pitiful headbutts from Blackie and his subordinates.
nThirty seconds later.
nPpyek!
nGreat Captain Blackie~nim, please accept my greeting! Rookie Black Torch reporting in!
nAfter being exorcised by Blackie and his subordinates, Black Torch transformed into a very polite rookie.
nKihihit.
nBlackie looked at his exorcism success with satisfaction.
nBut there were two beings that even Blackie couldn’t exorcise.
nOne was Theo, who had the giant Sejun.
nBlackie once secretly entered Theo’s mental world while he was sleeping, only to hurriedly exit upon encountering the giant butler about the size of his own.
nTheo was a crazy cat who only cared about Sejun.
nThanks to this, Blackie realized just how terrifying a fanatic could be.
nThe other being was Cuengi.
nInside Cuengi, a red bear with terrifying power was curled up, sleeping.
nSrrrk.
nThe bear slightly opened its right eye, as if annoyed by Blackie’s appearance in the mental world.
nEven that slight movement was starting to impact Blackie’s mental state.
nThe moment Blackie faced the bear, he realized its true identity.
nThe Beast of the Apocalypse…
nIf creation and destruction are like a repeating cycle of life and death, the apocalypse is the existence that breaks that cycle.
nThat’s why it’s also called ‘The End Bringer’.
nWhen the Beast of the Apocalypse awakens, it means everything returns to nothingness.
n– Leave. It is not yet time for me to awaken.
nAt the bear’s command, Blackie was expelled from Cuengi’s mental world.
nAs a result, Blackie couldn’t defy Theo or Cuengi.
nTheo was crazy and unpredictable, while if the entity inside Cuengi were to awaken, his happy life would come to an end.
nAs Blackie was lost in thought for a moment while looking at the rookie,
nMoo!
nDone!
nPpyak!
nThank you for your hard work!
nBlack Rabbit, who had endured the Minotaur King’s punches with his own two fists for 10 minutes, bowed to the Minotaur King.
nThen,
nPpyak!
nUncle, I’ll be back in about a week!
nBlack Rabbit prepared to go down the tower with Black Torch. Since Black Torch was still growing, he couldn’t undergo the Minotaur King’s special training every day.
n“Won’t you have a meal before you go?”
nPpyak! Ppyak!
nI’ll eat later! I have something important to do this afternoon!
nPpyek!
nGoodbye, Uncle Grandpa!
nAnd with that, the Black Rabbit father and son hurriedly left.
nUgh!
nGrandpa?!
nSejun suffered a serious internal injury from Black Torch’s innocent words.
nAfter the Black Rabbit father and son duo left,
n“Then let’s eat by ourselves.”
nSejun returned home and had lunch with his companions.
n***
nOn the outskirts of Destruction.
n“Leviathan, have you heard when the other Apostles of Destruction are coming?”
n“No, I haven’t.”
nLeviathan shook his head at Halphas’s question. It was natural, as he hadn’t come here of his own accord either.
nAt that moment,
n-Leviathan, where are you? There’s a lot of food here! Come eat with us! J?rmungandr~nim is here too!
nKraken had reached out to him.
nEven among the Apostles of Destruction, there were groups that formed based on their characteristics or levels of closeness.
nHalphas, Melpheus, and Delia, who all had wings.
nJ?rmungandr, Hydra, and Leviathan, who were all snakes, along with Kraken, who was close to Leviathan as they were both sea creatures.
nThey were called the Wing Faction and the Snake Faction.
nMeanwhile, Fenrir, Krueger, Violet, Alice, and Shasha, who preferred to act alone, were simply categorized as the Solo Faction.
n-Kraken, help! Tell J?rmungandr~nim that I’m with Halphas~nim, so hurry and come over!
nJust as Leviathan was asking Kraken for help,
n“I feel Krueger’s presence here…”
nViolet, the Crystal Giant of Destruction and the 11th seat of the Apostle of Destruction followed Krueger due to their shared rock attributes.
nA fragment of Violet was moving from the 72nd floor of the Black Tower towards the upper levels, following Krueger’s energy.
nAnd then,
n“This time I’m sure! It must be here!”
nPiyo?
nReally?
n“That’s… Oh?!”
nUren, who was leading the way while boasting loudly to Piyot, encountered them from the opposite direction.
n***
nYou’re a Field! Lv. 8 has been activated.
nThe seed of the Destruction Devourer has been planted in the body of Krueger, 7th seat of the Apostle of Destruction, the Destroyer of Mountains.
n…
n..
n.
nAfter lunch, Sejun was planting Destruction Devourer seeds in the Void Storage.
nKya-kya!
nKya-kya!
nAround Sejun, 70 Destruction Pioneers were diligently planting Destruction Devourer seeds.
nAnd then,
nKihihit! Kking!
nHehe. Everyone, devour it all!
nKiki!
nUnder Blackie’s command, the Destruction Devourers were eagerly consuming the energy of destruction.
nGulp! Gulp!
nThe energy of destruction they digested began to transform into a blue mist, which started mixing with the atmosphere of the 99th floor of the tower.
nAt that moment,
nSrrrk.
nCome!
nSome of that energy seeped into Podori’s branches.
nPop!
nIt’s done! I finally did it!
nPodori exclaimed in delight, having absorbed the energy of creation to produce a grape cluster resembling an altar.
nHow long and arduous had this journey been?
nCountless hours of scorn and humiliation when Flamie nagged that it couldn’t make an altar.
nUnder Flamie’s relentless pressure, Podori had finally absorbed enough of the energy of creation to create a bountiful grape cluster altar that could hold a harvest festival.
nAs Podori was rejoicing,
nNow that it’s made, you should quickly inform Master. What are you waiting for?
nFlamie’s voice echoed.
nFlamie had undergone a rapid increase in level and power after passing one of the three trials needed to become a Tree of Creation a few months ago.
nBecause of this, Flamie could no longer appear in front of Sejun and had pressured Podori into creating the altar for the Harvest Festival as a means to meet with him.
nWith the help of the Harvest Festival, Flamie hoped to appear before Sejun just as Aileen had done in the past.
nSejun~nim, please harvest this!
nWorried about receiving more pressure from Flamie, Podori hurriedly called out to Sejun.
nA little while later.
nPluck.
nAs Sejun harvested the grape cluster altar,
nYou have harvested the bountiful grape cluster altar.
nYour Job Experience has greatly increased.
nYour proficiency in Harvesting Lv. 9 has greatly increased.
nYou have gained 10,000 Experience Points.
nAlong with the messages, the purple grape cluster grew to a massive size and floated in the air, with vines extending from the grape cluster to support the altar.
nAnd then,
nA quest has been generated.
nQuest: Within 24 hours, offer 100 of each of 10 different crops to the bountiful grape cluster altar and hold the Harvest Festival of Abundance!
nReward: Hosting the Harvest Festival of Abundance
nA quest to hold the Harvest Festival of Abundance had appeared.
