Solo Farming In The Tower

[Farm Employment Contract]

– Party A shall pay Party B, 500 g of locust meat and 1 sweet potato for the work done on the farm from the start to the finish of the working hours.

– This contract will be renewed every year, and either Party A or Party B can terminate the contract during the renewal period if they wish.

Party A: Tower Farmer Park Sejun

Party B: Dooili (212).

The moles did not have specific names, so Theo named them arbitrarily.

“Chairman Park, all the stamps are collected, meow!”

Theo completed the moles’ contract and ran to Sejun, jumping onto his lap.

“Well done, Vice Chairman Theo. The food you had today is a welcoming gift for joining our farm. Let’s start fresh from tomorrow.”

Sejun patted Theo’s head and spoke to the moles.

Doo doo!

Doo doo!

The moles were overjoyed when they heard that the meat they ate that day would be gifted to them instead of being paid in cash. One by one, after eating the meat, they left for home, ready to start work the next day.

“Hehehe, Vice Chairman Theo, did you see? My negotiating skills?”

“As expected, Chairman Park is amazing, meow!”

Theo looked at Sejun with admiration, but then,

Krueng!

[Cuengi! I’m sleepy!]

After having lunch, Cuengi lay down, leaning against Sejun’s back and lay down, wanting to take a nap.

However, because Sejun and Theo were busy getting the mole contracts, they hadn’t eaten lunch.

Munch.

Sejun swallowed a piece of meat that Aileen had given him. Now, 97 pieces remained. He was gradually getting full.

After a quick meal, Sejun asked,

“Vice Chairman Theo, you want some churu, right?”

“Of course, meow! Give me churu quickly, meow!”

“Alright.”

Sejun opened a churu for Theo.

After a while,

Yawn.

Sejun, feeling full and warmed by Theo and Cuengi, started to doze off.

Chirp, chirp.

“Puhuhut. Even in this situation, I, Vice Chairman Theo, am awesome, always staying alert, meow!”

Theo, while eating his churu, kept a vigilant watch.

However,

Snore.

Kurrr.

Gororong.

After finishing his churu, Theo quickly fell asleep, joining the snoring duo of Sejun and Cuengi.

And then,

(Pip-pip. In the end, the one who stays vigilant is me.)

The golden bat, hanging from the persimmon tree, chuckled while keeping an eye on the surroundings.

***

“From here, the enemy split into two groups. We should also divide our forces.”

Hegel, who had been tracking the scent from the Three Head Society’s hideout, told Ulrich.

“Understood. Divide the forces in two!”

Having split, they continued their pursuit and discovered,

“There’s a passageway here!”

Two secret passageways used by the Three Head Society. They didn’t know their exact use, but they seemed to connect different floors, similar to merchant routes. After confirming the enemy’s routes, the divided forces regrouped.

And then,

“Quickly, check where these lead and come back!”

“Yes!”

Hegel ordered the wolves, who swiftly returned with the information. The passages they found connected to the 49th and 33rd floors of the tower. One led up, the other down.

“I used to oversee the 49th floor. I’ll take that. Please handle the 33rd floor.”

“Understood. Then I’ll take the 33rd floor.”

With that, Ulrich and Hegel led their combined forces of Black Orcs and wolves, splitting up to go either up or down.

***

After a 30-minute nap,

“Alright!”

Sejun, waking up, stretched energetically. Getting up after a short nap, he felt rejuvenated.

“Guys, wake up.”

Sejun hurriedly tried to wake up Theo and Cuengi.

“Meow… I want to sleep more, meow…”

Krueng…

[I want to sleep more…]

When Sejun woke them, both responded with drowsy complaints.

“Then sleep a bit more.”

Since Sejun was the only one working anyway, he placed Theo on Cuengi’s belly and got up.

(Sejun, are you starting your work again?)

The golden bat, who had been keeping watch from the persimmon tree, flew over and perched on Sejun’s shoulder.

“Yes. Golden Bat, can you sing in the center of the farm for all the persimmon trees to hear?”

(Yes!)

Sejun sent the golden bat to the center of the farm so all the persimmon trees could hear. Then he placed his hand on the nearest persimmon tree and began to heal it.

***

Krueng.

Cuengi stood up from his spot alone. Theo quickly felt uncomfortable and had long since settled on Sejun’s lap.

Then,

Krueng.

A massive vibration occurred from the ground.

Krueng?

[Is someone there?]

Kwoong!

Feeling something strange, Cuengi tapped where the vibration occurred. It was a gentle knock.

Koogooong.

In response to Cuengi’s knock, something started rising from the ground. Then a giant mole, about 3 meters in size, appeared. It had horns on its head and a fresh-looking lump at the back of its head.

“How dare you attack me, the boss of the 49th floor, Horned Mole Dooku?!”

Dooku, who as the boss of the 49th floor, could only leave his post for one hour a month, was furious to have his precious time interrupted.

Krueng! Krueng!

[No! Cuengi never attacked!]

Cuengi replied, lowering his head. He hadn’t attacked; he had simply knocked lightly.

“Don’t lie! You think I wouldn’t feel the shockwave from your position?!”

Krueng?!

[You think Cuengi is lying now?!]

Dooku’s words infuriated Cuengi. I’m a good bear who listens to Dad! I don’t lie!

And then,

Thump.

In an instant, Cuengi, who had grown to about 10 meters in size, grabbed Dooku by the collar with his left hand.

Krueng! Krueng?!

[Are you saying Cuengi really lied?!]

Shake.

Cuengi asked, shaking Dooku by the collar roughly.

However,

‘What’s with him?!’

“Save me······.”

Overwhelmed by Cuengi’s explosive power, Dooku had already fainted.

Shake.

Krueng!

[Wake up!]

Cuengi tried to wake up Dooku. But since Cuengi didn’t weaken his magic power, Dooku kept fainting,

Shake.

Cuengi didn’t give up and kept shaking Dooku to wake him up.

Then,

“Cuengi, what’s happening?”

Sejun, who stopped his work upon feeling the strong magic, asked.

Krueng! Krueng!

[He said Cuengi lied! So Cuengi was explaining that he didn’t!]

Huh? Who explains things by grabbing someone by the collar?

“Calm down and eat this. I’ll talk to him.”

Sejun, who had heard the whole story, gave Cuengi a snack to calm him down.

Krueng!

[Okay!]

Cuengi replied and returned to his original size.

Then,

Krueng!

[Delicious!]

After eating the snack, Cuengi quickly cheered up. As his anger subsided, his explosive power also diminished,

“Uh…”

Dooku regained consciousness.

“You’re the one who said Cuengi lied?”

“It’s not a lie! I clearly felt the hit when I was passing by, but you said you didn’t hit me!”

Dooku, now speaking more respectfully, burst out in indignation at Sejun’s words.

“That’s… my mistake. Our Cuengi still can’t control his strength…”

Having heard the situation, Sejun apologized to Dooku. Clearly, this was Cuengi’s fault.

Then,

“Cuengi, apologize to Dooku.”

Sejun decided to teach Cuengi that unintentional actions can still hurt others.

Krueng?

[Why should Cuengi apologize when he didn’t hit?]

Cuengi tilted his head, questioning. He had no intention of hitting, so he couldn’t understand Sejun’s request.

“Cuengi, with great power comes…”

Sejun started, thinking of a fitting movie quote,

‘No!’

He quickly cut himself off. The character who gives that line usually dies in movies. That’s a death flag!

Krueng?

[Dad, why did you stop talking?]

“Cuengi, even if you didn’t mean to hit, if the other person feels hurt, it’s as if you hit them. So, let’s apologize to Dooku.”

Krueng…

[I’m sorry…]

Though he seemed not to understand completely, Cuengi apologized to Dooku as Sejun asked. That’s how one learns, slowly but surely.

“I apologize too. I also misunderstood the situation.”

When Cuengi apologized, Dooku graciously accepted the apology.

“Thank you. Here’s a gift as an apology.”

Sejun handed Dooku a whole piece of locust meat.

“Oh! Thank you!”

Dooku, receiving the meat, drooled and couldn’t take his eyes off it.

“By the way, is it okay for you, a boss monster, to stay here?”

“Ah! Look at the time! I must return!”

Dooku, jolted by Sejun’s words, hurriedly tried to return to the waypoint.

“Let’s go with him!”

Sejun intended to familiarize himself with the route to the waypoint and even complete the waypoint registration.

Thus, Sejun, having become acquainted with the boss of the 49th floor of the tower and completing the waypoint registration in a smooth process, returned to heal the persimmon tree and spent his first night on the 49th floor.

***

The next morning.

“Ugh…”

Sejun couldn’t move his right arm as if it was pinned down.

Since Pink-fur was not here, naturally, Cuengi slept together with Sejun, and Cuengi was sleeping while holding Sejun’s right arm. When looked closely, it was almost like an armlock.

Cuengi, who unconsciously employed an advanced technique, was indeed a formidable creature.

“Hey guys, wake up.”

Sejun quickly woke the animals. Starting today, the moles would start their work, and he needed to be teaching them farming.

After waking the animals, Sejun left the brick house, which looked similar to the one on the 99th floor. He had built it using Myler’s hoe and the land moving skill the day before. There was also a cooking area next to it.

“Let’s have breakfast.”

Sejun quickly prepared breakfast and called the animals.

While Sejun and the animals were eating,

Doo doo!

The moles began their day by digging tunnels.

“We need to start by fixing the mole’s tunnels.”

Sejun said, looking at the haphazard tunnels the moles had made. If the moles always arrived like this, they wouldn’t be able to make a field.

By the time Sejun finished breakfast,

Doo doo!

All 2012 moles had reported for work.

“Today, Instructor Cuengi will teach you how to create fields and plant.”

Krueng! Krueng!

[Follow Cuengi! Cuengi will teach you how to plant!]

At Sejun’s words, Cuengi led the moles to the soil that Toryong had well-mixed.

“Our Cuengi has grown so much.”

Sejun gazed affectionately at Cuengi, who had once planted fish heads in the ground. But now, he had grown enough to teach other novice farmers.

Watching Cuengi, Sejun said,

“Now, let’s get to work.”

(Yes!)

He headed to the persimmon trees with the Golden Bat. Of course, Theo was attached to Sejun’s knee as a default option.

[Farmer’s Warm Touch Lv. 4 is activated.]

[The roots of the persimmon tree heal a little while touched.]

…

..

.

Thanks to the preliminary work already done by the golden bat’s song, Sejun could heal the persimmon trees a bit faster than the previous day.

After treating about 20 trees,

“Look, there’s a suspicious guy!”

The Black Orcs, who had arrived on the 49th floor to track down the Three Head Society, surrounded Sejun.

“Meow?! It’s the Black Orcs, meow!”

“What?! Do you know them, Vice Chairman Theo?”

Sejun, putting on his bone helmet and preparing for battle, asked Theo.

“Of course, meow! They’re the subordinates of my subordinate, Ulrich, meow! Where is Ulrich, meow?!”

Theo spoke proudly, calling for the king of the Black Orcs, Ulrich.
