Chapter 569: Park Sejun, You Conman!
TL: Hanguk
22nd floor of the Red Tower.
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. Butler! Give me more!]
Blackie stuck his head out just slightly from a small gap in the Void Storage and urged Sejun.
“Alright.”
Plop.
To help Blackie, who was suffering from the heat, Sejun peeled the skin off a mangosteen and placed the flesh into Blackie’s mouth.
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. So refreshing!]
Blackie immediately pulled his head back into the Void Storage and,
Chomp. Chomp. Chomp.
the sound of Blackie and his subordinates happily eating soon followed.
The ‘Cold Mangosteen’, true to its name, had a naturally cool flesh and provided a heat-resistance effect that kept the body cool for 1 hour.
“Are you feeling better now?”
Sejun looked at Blackie, who seemed to have regained some energy, and resumed harvesting mangosteens together with Theo and Cuengi.
A little while later.
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. Great Blackie has been revived!]
Blackie, now with heat resistance, came leaping out of the Void Storage with boundless energy. Perhaps too much energy.
Kking!
[I smell something delicious here!]
Overflowing with energy, Blackie secretly jumped toward a basket full of harvested mangosteens while Sejun was busy harvesting.
Kking!
Blackie wiggled his body and crawled into the basket.
Kking!
[Found it!]
Crunch. Crunch.
Blackie, with his excellent deboning skills, peeled the mangosteen skin and
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. Guys, let’s eat!]
He shared it with his subordinates, and they ate fervently.
A short while later.
Kking...
[Butler... My stomach hurts...]
“I feel cold...”
Kkiruk...
Sharalarang...
...
..
.
The Blackie family, having eaten five mangosteens each, approached Sejun with weak voices and flopped down in front of him.
“Sigh.”
Sejun hurriedly started rubbing Blackie’s belly first.
“My hands are healing hands. Blackie’s belly is a poop belly.” (TL: The first part refers to a song that goes like “Grandmother’s hands are healing hands.” The second part is an old term with a negative connotation, used to describe someone who has gained weight. It implies that their intestines are filled with poop and need to be cleared by losing weight. This term was commonly used in the old marketing of diet products.)
While singing a teasing song.
Fortunately, Sejun’s stomach rubbing seemed to have an effect.
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. Butler! I feel better now!]
Blackie soon regained his energy.
“Please take care of me next...”
Next, Eomdol laid down in front of Sejun, and
“My hands are healing hands. Eomdol’s belly is a poop belly.”
Sejun took turns treating each member of the Blackie family.
“Puhuhut. It’s coming this way!, meow!”
Cuengi!
[It’s coming this way!]
Theo and Cuengi, who had finished harvesting mangosteens midway, joined in, speeding up the treatment process.
Once the stomachache treatment was completed,
“Now, let’s head to the waypoint.”
Sejun and his companions moved toward the waypoint on the 22nd floor of the tower.
“Who are you?!”
Seems like Udon hadn’t informed Flame Squirrel Yoppi, 22nd floor boss , sent killing intent toward Sejun and his companions.
“Water Bomb.”
Boom!
With just a single show of strength from Sejun in the clearing,
“Welcome! Please come in!”
The path was opened immediately.
Click.
[The waypoint on the 22nd floor of the Red Tower has been saved.]
...
..
.
Sejun placed his hand on the red crystal to register the waypoint.
“Yoppi, how’s life these days?”
“Huh?”
“Big bro’s trying to help you here. Don’t be scared, tell me.”
“Oh. Are you really going to help me?! Actually, there’s this squirrel I like....”
“Unrequited love, huh. Hahaha. Yoppi, you should consider yourself lucky.”
Because I am none other than love expert Park Sejun.
While providing Yoppi with love advice, Sejun chatted with him to pass the time, as they had to wait for Udon to arrive.
2a09:bac1:4080:10::119:f
A little later.
“Sejun-nim, you’re here!”
“Yeah. Udon, how have you been?”
“Very well. Here’s the land deed for the 99th floor of the tower. I’ve already informed the boss, so all you need to do is register it.”
Udon, who had run over quickly, handed over the land deed for the 99th floor.
“Thanks.”
[You have arrived at the 99th floor of the Red Tower.] [Battle Maniac Balrog, Boss of the 99th floor of the Red Tower] [The waypoint on the 99th floor of the Red Tower has been saved.] [You have cleared all the towers managed by dragons and proven your worth by passing the trials of the 10th tower.] [A quest has been triggered.]
“Ramter-nim, can I take this tablet?”
After hearing about the contents of the Creator God’s Tablet from Udon, Sejun called for Ramter and asked for the tablet.
[The Red Tower’s administrator says that because it’s a tablet created by the Creator God, it cannot be given away.]
Ramter firmly refused.
“I’ll give you 100 bottles each of Cherry Wine and Watermelon Wine in exchange. Will that work?”
[...The Red Tower’s administrator still says no.]
Sejun tried to negotiate with specialty wines, but Ramter didn’t budge.
However,
He hesitated a bit.
Sejun caught the momentary hesitation.
“500 bottles each of Cherry Wine and Watermelon Wine.”
Believing there was a chance, he raised the offer.
Then,
[......The Red Tower’s administrator says it’s difficult.]
Ramter was visibly wavering. Truthfully, the Creator God’s Tablet wasn’t particularly important to Ramter. It was just something he kept because it had been made by the Creator God, more out of obligation than necessity.
“I’ll also add 100 Transcendence Black Beans.”
[The Red Tower’s administrator says that although it’s an important item, since you need it, he will make an exception just for you.]
“Thank you. I’ll deliver the wine and beans once I return.”
Sejun bowed his head in gratitude to Ramter.
“Cuengi, load it up.”
Kueng!
Sejun had Cuengi load the Creator God’s Tablet into the Void Storage.
And with that,
“Udon, see you next time.”
Sejun bid farewell to Udon and returned to the Black Tower.
Once Sejun and his group disappeared,
“Hey, Sejun-nim is gone. So is Cuengi.”
Udon approached the still-unconscious Balrog and spoke.
At that,
“...Really?”
Balrog, who had been pretending to be unconscious because he was too terrified of Cuengi, suddenly sprang up.
On Balrog’s left cheek was a large, dark bruise in the shape of Cuengi’s paw, which stood out even more against his red skin. And on his forehead was a cat paw print.
“Pffft.”
Udon couldn’t hold back his laughter at Balrog’s ridiculous appearance.

[You have arrived at the 99th floor of the Black Tower.]
...
..
.
Sejun returned home.
“Ajax, send me the Creator God’s Tablet.”
[The White Tower’s honorary employee says okay.]
Ajax, the good little brother, readily agreed to Sejun’s request.
[Creator God’s Tablet has arrived.]
Thud.
The tablet Ajax sent appeared in front of Sejun.
Good. Now I have 3 Creator God’s Tablets.
“Ophelia, send me the Creator God’s Tablet you have. I’ll reduce your slave contract by 100 years.”
[The Green Tower’s honorary employee says okay.]
Thud.
Hehehe. 4 acquired.
Without much effort, Sejun had collected four Creator God’s Tablets.
“Ramter-nim, here you go.”
At the fountain, Sejun handed over 500 bottles each of Cherry Wine and Watermelon Wine, as well as 100 Black Beans, to Ramter.
At this,
– Sejun! Why are you only giving them to Ramter?!
– This is too unfair!
– That’s right! Give some to us, too!
Kaiser, Kellion, and Tier openly voiced their dissatisfaction toward Sejun.
“This isn’t a gift. It’s payment for a transaction.”
– Indeed. It’s fair compensation I received for giving Sejun the Creator God’s Tablet.
Ramter spoke proudly, supporting Sejun’s explanation.
– Ahem...
Kaiser, who didn’t have a Creator God’s Tablet to offer for trade, swallowed his words, and
– What?! Sejun, then let’s make a deal with me, too!
– Me too!
Though Kellion and Tier shouted enthusiastically
“I’m sorry. I already received the tablet from the White Tower through Ajax.”
– What?! My grandson did?!
Kellion was immediately struck with despair.
And then,
– Hahaha! Sejun, I’ll trade with you. I’ll take 1,000 bottles of Detoxifying Wine and 100 Black Beans in exchange.
Tier, who could offer a deal, proposed his terms with a triumphant voice.
The Detoxifying Wine was a type of liquor brewed by Sejun using the Detoxifying Green Onions, capable of purifying poisonous energy, making it popular among the Purple Dragons.
“Yes, but I don’t have any Detoxifying Wine prepared at the moment, so it’ll take about 10 days.”
– That much time is more than enough. Then, I’ll send you the Creator God’s Tablet.
A short while later,
Thud.
The Creator God’s Tablet sent by Tier through Veronica appeared in front of Sejun.
I need to clean this quickly before it contaminates the other plants.
Since the tablet from the Purple Tower was covered in poisonous energy, Sejun consumed a Detoxifying Green Onion and,
“Maintain Cleanliness.”
“Water Bomb.”
Using two skills simultaneously, he thoroughly cleaned the tablet.
When Sejun had gathered a total of five Creator God’s Tablets in front of his house,
[Four additional Creator God’s Tablets are placed around the temple.]
[The divine power received through the blessing of the Creator God increases tenfold.]
“Oh! As expected, Trust-in-Park!”
“Trust-in-Park!”
“Trust-in-Park!”
The non-combat gods at the Seed Shop headquarters were moved once again today by the grace of Trust-in-Park.
