Chapter 545: O Yay!
TL: Hanguk
The 99th floor of the Black Tower.
“Ugh, I feel bloated.”
After finishing Aileen’s food, Sejun emerged from the kitchen with a drastically worsening complexion. Of course, it wasn’t because he had eaten too much.
“Meow?! Chairman Park’s face is chubby and looks seriously ugly, meow!”
“What do you mean chubby and seriously ugly... mmph.”
“This is an emergency, meow! There’s no time, meow! Immediate treatment, meow!”
While receiving a facial massage from Theo’s front paw,
Kueng! Kueng!
[Dad, here’s some hot chocolate milk! Drink this and get your energy back!]
Sejun recovered his condition while drinking the chocolate milk Cuengi had made for him.
Kihihit. Kking! Kking!
[Hehe! Butler! Cheer up! I’ll play with you!]
Blackie, pretending to help improve Sejun’s condition, was actually attempting to fulfill its own selfish desires.
“Blackie, go play with your subordinates.”
Kking···
[But I want to play with my butler...]
It didn’t work on Sejun.
With the care from Theo and Cuengi, Sejun recovered his condition.
“Let’s go to bed now. Good night, Cuengi.”
Kueng!
[Good night, Dad!]
After sending Cuengi off to Pink-fur, Sejun went into the bedroom with his companions to sleep.
Shortly after.
(Pip-pip. Good night, everyone.)
Paespaes got up and began its nightly activities, heading outside.

Kuhhh.
Gororong.
Kirorong.
···
..
.
Murorong.
In the bedroom, where everyone was fast asleep, only Mukbupal remained awake.
No, in fact, Mukbupal hadn’t slept even once since joining Blackie family.
Ppuu...
[I can’t fall asleep...]
Mukbupal was suffering from insomnia.
It vaguely remembered sleeping before, but ever since it started hanging out with snake faction, it rarely got any sleep.
More precisely, Snake faction had prevented Mukbupal from sleeping, to exploit it.
Although Leviathan brought Kraken to snake faction, claiming they were all sea creatures,
“Kraken, I’m a bit busy right now. Could you handle this for me?”
“Alright.”
“Kraken, I have too much work to do... Could you go there on my behalf?”
“Sure.”
Snake faction’s true intention was to use Kraken for its own benefit.
Between Jǫrmungandr, Hydra, and Leviathan, Kraken ended up doing the bulk of Snake faction’s tasks while fulfilling their requests as well.
To handle the workload, Kraken gradually reduced its sleeping hours until it could no longer sleep at all.
Ppuu···
[So bored···]
Unable to sleep, Mukbupal alleviated its boredom by exploring Sejun’s bedroom.
At that moment,
“Hmm... Mukbupal, why aren’t you sleeping?”
Sejun, half-asleep, opened his eyes and asked Mukbupal.
Ppuu.
[I can’t fall asleep.]
“Really? Wait a moment.”
Clink.
Hearing Mukbupal’s reply, Sejun opened his void storage and
Kya kya?
“Bring me a Plum of Deep Sleep.”
Had the Destruction Pioneer bring plums.
Then,
“Crop Miniaturization. Here, eat this. It’ll help you sleep better.”
Using his skill, he reduced the size of the plum and handed it to Mukbupal.
Ppuu.
[Thank you for the meal.]
Even though the plum had been shrunk, it was still larger than Mukbupal.
Wrap.
Wrapping its legs around the plum, Mukbupal’s body stretched, fully engulfing the plum.
Ppuu! Ppuu!
[It’s delicious! So good!]
Mukbupal began eating the plum with great relish.
Come to think of it, Jǫrmungandr-nim did promise to let me rest after this mission was over...
Ppurorong.
While munching on the plum, thoughts of a vacation crossed Mukbupal’s mind, and it slowly drifted off to sleep.
In its dreams, Mukbupal swam through the ocean, enjoying a peaceful holiday.
Kking?! Kking!
[Hey! Wake up! It’s playtime now!]
Until Blackie woke it up in the morning.
And then,
Eating, playing, sleeping.
Eating, playing, sleeping.
A real vacation, not a dream, began.

Seed Shop Headquarters.
“The time for battle has come again!”
“This time, I have a good feeling! Trust-in-Park is on my side!”
“What nonsense?! Trust-in-Park is with me!”
“No, it’s me!”
“It’s me, I tell you!”
The non-combat gods who had created their transcendence grade seeds for the Seed Shop began gathering in the plaza.
“Puhihihi. That’s right! Brother-in-law’s cooking is the best!”
[The great Black Dragon, Elizabeth Pritani, praises your cooking highly.]
[Your soul becomes greatly fulfilled from receiving high praise from a high-ranking being.]
[Your Mental Strength increases by 30.]
[The great but young Black Dragon Hatchling, Ace Pritani, praises your cooking highly.]
[Your Mental Strength increases by 5.]
Receiving high praise from Elizabeth and Ace, who had eaten proper food for the first time in a while, Sejun’s Mental Strength increased.
After breakfast,
Kueng!
“Thanks, Cuengi.”
Slurp.
“Ahh, as expected, the coffee my son makes is the best!”
Sejun gave a dramatic thumbs-up as he sipped the coffee Cuengi had brewed.
Kuehehehe.
Cuengi smiled brightly and widely in response.
A little while later.
“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, I’ll go make lots of money, meow!”
Kueng!
[Cuengi will gather lots of herbs, too!]
Theo and Cuengi headed off to the 4th floor of the Golden Tower and the herb garden, respectively, while Sejun also began his morning routine.
“Magic Swordsmanship!”
Slash.
Sejun, applying what he learned from Bochi, infused magic into his sickle and began harvesting green onions.
As he worked,
[You have harvested Detoxifying Green Onions.]
[Magic is slightly infused into the Detoxifying Green Onions.]
[Their shelf life is extended by 3 hours.]
[Your job experience increases slightly.]
[Your proficiency in Harvesting Lv. 9 increases slightly.]
[Your proficiency in Magic Swordsmanship Lv. 1 increases slightly.]
[You gain 100 experience points.]
The shelf life of the crops had increased, even if only slightly.
Thanks to that, Sejun worked with quadruple efficiency – harvesting crops, increasing shelf life, and raising proficiency in two skills.
Haha. This is the swordsmanship of a Tower Farmer. Farming Swordsmanship!
Swish. Swish.
While Sejun was enthusiastically harvesting crops feeling a bit smug,
[Seed Shop is now open.]
Sejun’s 15th Seed Shop opened.
[Park Sejun-nim’s rank is Transcendent.]
[Seven types of seeds, including Transcendence grade seeds, are randomly displayed for today’s sale.]
[At your current rank, you can purchase as many seeds as you want within a 500 Tower Coins limit.]
However,
[100 Bok Choy Seeds – 70 Tower Coins]
[100 Gondre Seeds – 50 Tower Coins]
···
..
.
[10 Yuzu Seeds – 5 Tower Coins]
This time, not a single Transcendence grade seed appeared in the seed list.
It had been a while since Sejun had such bad luck.
While it was disappointing for the non-combat gods, Sejun wasn’t disappointed at all.
“Oh! Gondre?!”
Mix it with rice to make thistle rice and season it with sauce. Kuuh.
“Hehehe. With Yuzu, I can make citron tea and citron jam.”
Because there were many delicious things.
After buying all 7 types of seeds
“Humm humm humm.”
Come on, little ones, grow quickly.
Humming a tune, Sejun planted the seeds.

Sea of Dimensions
[Is it here?]
Boom!
When Flamie struck a massive wall with her enormous root,
Kugung.
The wall crumbled, revealing a stone statue in the form of a sacred goddess.
[Hehe! I’ve found it!]
Flamie happily touched the statue with her root after discovering it.
At that moment,
“Candidate for the Tree of Creation, are you prepared to undergo the trial?”
The statue’s mouth moved as it spoke to Flamie.
This was the place Creator God had taught her about, where one takes the test to become a true Tree of Creation.
[Yes!]
When Flamie answered with a voice full of determination
“Very well. Then I shall begin the first trial. Bring me a Magic Stream Seed within 10 days.”
The trial had begun.
[Will a GreatMagic Stream Seed work as well?]
Knowing that Sejun didn’t have a Magic Stream Seed but did have Great Magic Stream Seeds, Flamie asked the statue.
“Yes. Since it is better than Magic Stream Seed, there will be additional rewards.”
Oh!
An incredibly easy trial.
Flamie was about to ask Cuengi to fetch the seed from Sejun and quickly complete the trial when,
“I will seal your powers while you take the first trial.”
The statue sealed Flamie’s powers.
Huh?! You’re sealing my powers?!
[O Yay!]
Great! Now I can stay with Sejun~nim!
Flamie scrapped its plan to pass the trial immediately and decided to spend the full 10 days playing by Sejun’s side before completing the first trial.
