“Haa. Just come out already.”

“We need to defeat it quickly to go back…”

The dragons of the Four Dragon Council, who were still on standby, sighed as they stared at the Black Moon.

Soon, the grape wine drinking competition would begin…

Everyone was anxious because of the grape wine drinking competition.

Of course, it wasn’t because of the wine itself.

No matter how good the wine provided at the competition was, it couldn’t compare to the grape wine that Sejun had made himself.

The reason for their anxiousness was something else.

What if Sejun gets in a good mood and starts handing out golden Samyangju to everyone?

And what if they weren’t there when that happened?

‘That absolutely can’t happen!’

Just thinking about it made the dragons of Four Dragon Council burn with anger, and their throats dry up.

‘Anyone, just come out!’

‘Please, come out!’

‘I’ll burn everything down!’

‘Come out already!’

As Four Dragon Council, with fire in their eyes, searched for the enemy—

Kugung.

A gigantic snake was seen wandering around the outskirts of destruction.

‘Where has that Halphas guy gone?’

With Halphas, who was leading the destruction of the world, having disappeared, the speed of destroying the worlds slowed down

Finding this strange, J?rmungandr was on his way to find out what was going on by searching for Halphas.

And then—

If we just defeat you, we can go drink!

We’ll defeat you and head back!

The moment Four Dragon Council members spotted J?rmungandr, they quickly ate Sejun’s bean set and shouted,

“The 3rd Apostle of Destruction, J?rmungandr, the world-devouring serpent! You’re the one who opened the Black Moon!”

“It’s definitely your fault!”

“Take my breath attack!”

“It’s all because of you!”

Kuoooo!

They began to attack J?rmungandr.

“It’s the Apostle of Destruction!”

“Attack J?rmungandr!”

Following that, the remaining leaders and the dragons of the nine dragon tribes also ate the bean set and attacked J?rmungandr.

Of course, the quantity of bean sets was limited, but thanks to having bought some from Aileen and securing some on credit beforehand, about 10% of the dragons had a bean set.

“What?! Seal release.”

With the overwhelming number of dragons attacking, J?rmungandr hurriedly released his seal.

Since there were so many dragons, he immediately unsealed up to the 5th stage and shed five layers of skin at once.

Crack.

In an instant, J?rmungandr shed five layers of skin and grew several dozen times larger, with six pairs of eyes staring down.

“You will pay the price for daring to attack me!”

J?rmungandr opened his mouth wide, rushing forward to devour the dragons.

However—

Kuoooo!

Kuoooo!

“Ugh.”

The dragons’ collective breath attack were incredibly fierce.

***

“Alright.”

Sejun, who had woken up, opened his eyes and, as usual, reached out to grab Blackie, who would normally be sleeping on his chest.

But—

“Huh?”

‘He’s not here?’

What he touched wasn’t Blackie’s soft fur, but his own firm chest toned by farming.

“Where did he go?”

Sejun sat up and looked around.

But—

Gororong.

Kyurorong.

All he could see were Theo and Iona, still fast asleep.

‘Maybe he went to his secret storage again?’

“Meow…”

Sejun picked up Theo and placed him on his knee.

Shh.

After getting up, Sejun marked the date on the wall and carefully opened the window.

Since Blackie wanted to keep the secret storage hidden, Sejun planned to secretly check without being noticed.

So, he peeked through the slightly opened window to look at Blackie’s secret storage, located on both side of the Creator God’s tablet.

But—

He wasn’t there?

Blackie was nowhere to be seen.

At that moment—

Kking! Kking!

Good! The butler will wake up soon, so everyone, get into position!

Sejun heard Blackie’s barking from the door on the lower left, directing his subordinates.

‘What’s going on?’

What are they preparing?

As Sejun looked toward the door to figure out what was going on—

Kkihihit. Kking?

Heheh. The butler will like this when he sees these, right?

“Of course! He’ll definitely like it!”

Kkiruk!

Shalarang!

“He’s going to love it for sure!”

Caw!

Blackie and his subordinates stood in a line, facing the door, as if preparing for something.

At the center, of course, stood Blackie, the leader, flanked on his left and right by Kkabi, Jaki, Eomdol, and Ggomi.

Karurur, who had been idly standing in the back, suddenly perked up.

Kking?!

Karurur, aren’t you coming?!

When Blackie raised his front paw threateningly, only then did Karurur hesitantly stand next to Blackie.

Karurur subtly tried to stand in the center with Blackie.

Kking!

Move!

Of course, Blackie immediately disciplined Karurur for daring to try to be co-center with him and put him behind himself.

With that, the formation was complete.

Kuhaaam.

It didn’t even take a minute before Blackie yawned.

After all, he’d been bustling around since early dawn.

Soon, Blackie and his subordinates began yawning in turns and started nodding off.

At this rate, they wouldn’t be able to do what they’d prepared.

Sejun was too curious about what Blackie had prepared, so

Thump, thump.

He deliberately made loud footsteps to wake up Blackie and his subordinates.

And then,

Screeech.

As he opened the door,

Kking! Kking! Kking!

Tada! Butler, these are gifts for you! My subordinates made them!

Blackie barked proudly in front of the items his subordinates had created.

“Oh!”

Sejun was originally planning to just pretend to be surprised at Blackie’s surprise, but—

Eomdol’s Sturdy Dolsot

Durable Spider Silk Camouflage Suit

Well-Aged Golden Samyangju

Orb of Death’s Energy freewёbnoνel.com

‘These are real items!’

He hadn’t seen the items in front of Blackie through the window slit earlier, so he was genuinely surprised.

“Wow…”

After checking the item options, Sejun couldn’t close his mouth for a long time.

He had dismissed all those exorcised by Blackie as insignificant, especially since they had transformed into something too cute to take seriously.

But as expected of an Apostle of Destruction…

Their former abilities had not faded.

Each item had excellent options, all possessing abilities greater than divine relics, with at least three stars each.

In particular, the Orb of Death’s Energy was extraordinary.

It had five stars with ‘creation-level’ grade that even surpassed divine relics.

This was the first time Sejun had seen a five-star item since Theo’s legendary item, the Bag of the Legendary Merchant Wandering the Nine Towers.

Thanks to this, Sejun realized just how impressive Theo’s legendary merchant item was.

But to think that Karurur was the 2nd Seat of the Apostle of Destruction, Halphas, the Crow of Death…

Sejun was somewhat shocked that Karurur, who made the Orb of Death’s Energy, had once been Halphas.

Kkiethem! Kking!

Ahem! Butler! Quickly, praise me!

Sejun didn’t even realize that Fenrir, the god hunting noble wolf and the 1st Apostle of Destruction, was wagging his tail furiously in front of him, eagerly awaiting praise.

“Guys, thank you. I’ll make good use of these.”

As Sejun patted and praised Blackie, the leader, first, followed by Blackie’s subordinates

Step. Step.

Even Karurur subtly edged closer to make it easier for Sejun to pat him.

“Aren’t you all tired? Let’s sleep while eating this.”

Sejun placed Blackie and his subordinates into his sling bag and gave them a generous amount of roasted and dried sweet potatoes.

Normally, Sejun didn’t allow them to eat before bed, but today was an exception—he permitted them to eat while they slept.

Kkihihit.

Chomp. Chomp…

Kyororong.

Eomrorong.

Kkirurung.

Sharorong.

Karorong.

Excitedly munching on the roasted and dried sweet potato a few times, Blackie and his subordinates soon fell asleep, each hugging a piece of the sweet potato.

Pong.

Sejun played around by popping the bubbles forming on Blackie’s nose as he snored, then began preparing breakfast.

A short while later,

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, I’ll be heading to the Green Tower for a bit today, meow!”

After breakfast, Theo was getting ready for work.

“Huh?! Why? You can relax until the Harvest Festival ends.”

“No, meow! I need to go maintain discipline, meow! I’ll be off now, meow!”

With that, Theo opened his Wandering Merchant’s Bag and teleported to the Green Tower.

The place Theo arrived at wasn’t the first floor of the Green Tower, but the 42nd floor.

The Wandering Merchant’s Bag, Theo’s legendary item, randomly changed the location it could go to every 30 days.

Today, the location was the 42nd floor of the Green Tower.

It was a stroke of luck for Theo, who hadn’t yet finished his business in the Green Tower.

Of course, it was unfortunate for the beings in the Green Tower who had to keep seeing Theo, but.

As soon as Theo arrived at the 42nd floor of the tower, he neatly organized the surroundings, called the legendary merchants Turbo and Shark here to receive reports, and

He also called the Immortal Clan Trolls to move the crops he had brought for Sejun’s shop on the first floor of the tower. Naturally, the auction took place on the 42nd floor.

And today was the day to receive reports from the legendary merchants.

That’s why, even though Sejun had told him to rest, Theo insisted on coming to the Green Tower.

If he didn’t get the reports today, the merchants might slack off until the next reporting day.

But that was just an excuse to tell Sejun.

‘I can’t lose to Blackie, meow! I’ll bring a gift that’ll make Chairman Park happy too, meow!’

The real reason Theo had come here was because of Sejun’s joy at receiving Blackie’s gift in the morning.

As soon as Theo arrived,

Dadadada.

“Welcome, Vice Chairman Theo!”

“Welcome!”

Turbo and Shark, who had been waiting in advance, rushed over to Theo and began their reports.

“Vice Chairman Theo, I’ve obtained three Land Deeds!”

“Hahk! Full-time employee Turbo, you’ve brought two fewer land deeds than last time, meow! Do you want me to take away your legendary merchant item, meow?!”

“I-I’m sorry! I’ll work harder next time and bring back five land deeds!”

At Theo’s threat, Turbo shouted frantically.

“Good, meow! I’ll be watching you, meow!”

With that, Theo collected the three land deeds from Turbo.

“And what did full-time employee Shark bring, meow?!”

104.28.193.250

Looking at Shark, he asked.

“I’ve brought two Green Orbs of Life!”

Shark proudly pulled out two green orbs.

“Puhuhut. Excellent work, full-time employee Shark, meow! If you keep working hard, I’ll get Hel-nim to give you a legendary merchant item, meow!”

“Thank you!”

After receiving the reports from Turbo and Shark,

It’s not enough, meow!

Theo didn’t think Sejun would be as happy with these gifts as he had been earlier in the day.

So,

Chairman Park, please lend me your strength, meow!

Theo prayed earnestly to Sejun, asking for help, and Theo’s prayer was answered today as well.

Twitch.

Theo suddenly felt a powerful pull in his front paw.
