Solo Farming In The Tower

“Is this where I’m supposed to insert it?”

Thunk.

Sejun inserted the key into the key-shaped hole in the pupil of Rascal’s right eye.

Then,

Creak. Click. Clank.

As the sound of a spring winding echoed, a circular magic circle formed on the ground around Sejun, and at the same time, a door connected to Rascal’s right eye appeared.

Rascal’s right eye had become the door handle. It was a bizarre taste.

“What a perverse sense.”

With a disturbed expression, Sejun grabbed the eyeball that had become the handle and turned it.

Creak.

The door opened smoothly.

And when they stepped inside,

“Wow-”

An enormous amount of treasure filled a super-sized void storage space so vast it could be called an expansive land. It was more than all the wealth Sejun had acquired thus far combined.

“Hehehe. Guys, let’s gather it up.”

“Puhuhut. Got it, meow!”

Kuehehehe. Kueng!

[Hehehe. So much treasure!]

Kihihit. Kking!

[Hehe. Butler! This is all thanks to great Blackie!]

Sejun and his group began diligently moving the treasure into his void storage and

Whirr.

[Assist Sejun-nim in moving the treasures.]

Whirr!

Sweetie, sitting on Sejun’s right shoulder, gave instructions to the poisonous bees to move the treasure.

While they were moving the treasure,

Whirr.

[Your Highness, there is something strange over there.]

One of the poisonous bees approached Sweetie and reported.

Whirr? Whirr? Whirr.

[Something strange? Where? I’ll see for myself.]

Sweetie followed the reporting bee.

Whirr?

[This is…?]

They found a white stone tablet.

***

Sejun-nim is near Code No. 1.

Soon I’ll be able to talk with Sejun-nim.

[System 371] was thrilled with the prospect of speaking with Sejun, completely unaware that what Sejun wanted to do upon obtaining Code No. 1 was to impeach it.

I must not get happy even if Sejun-nim praises me.

Right. I’m a humble system after all.

In fact, thinking it would be praised by Sejun, [System 371] aimed to show humility and win Sejun’s favor.

From its point of view, it was entirely reasonable.

It provided Sejun with as many quest rewards as it could within its capabilities, and even offered information it wasn’t originally supposed to disclose.

When Earth leveled up, it suppressed the growth of stats and stat potential to ensure Sejun’s safety and updated the Tower Farmer-exclusive powers list to Aileen to be helpful to Sejun.

Besides that, it had provided various conveniences, including today.

Sejun lacked the ability to be eligible for more than one power as the 10th Tower Master, but [System 371] went out of its way to help him receive two additional ones.

With such effort, [System 371] never imagined that it might be disliked by Sejun.

But just like how no one believes a boy who cried wolf, even when he tells the truth, due to too much prior deception, [System 371]’s goodwill no longer seemed sincere.

In short, it was too late.

***

Whirr!

[Sejun-nim, I found something good!]

Sweetie, beaming, flew to Sejun holding the tablet.

“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Theo-nim, are you really okay?”

Watching Sweetie, Iona asked Theo in a worried voice.

“Puhuhut. I’m fine, meow! This time Sweetie worked hard, so it’s right to yield the praise, meow!”

It’s disappointing not to get praise from Chairman Park, meow…

Theo hid his disappointment and smiled.

In fact, Theo had felt a pull in his front paw the moment he entered the treasure vault.

But for Sweetie’s sake, he didn’t follow the pull.

“Puhuhut. You all search over there, meow!”

Whirr!

He sent the poisonous bees to the place he felt the pull and made them find the tablet.

What a considerate cat!

“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Theo-nim, you’re amazing!”

Smooch.

Iona, smitten with Theo again, kissed him on the cheek.

“Meow?”

Why suddenly, meow?

Theo wore a dazed expression.

Then, with a sly smile, he placed Iona on his back.

“Puhuhut. Still, I’ll impeach the system together with Chairman Park, meow!”

With his tail raised, he approached Sejun with the stealthy steps of a predator eyeing its prey.

“What’s this?”

Could it be… a system code?!

When Sejun received and examined the stone tablet that Sweetie brought,

[<Title: One Who Glimpsed Long Into the Beginning> has grasped the essence of the tablet.]

Sejun’s eyes turned golden as his title activated,

[Code No. 1]

→ This is Code No. 1 used to access [System 371].

→ You must collect Codes No. 1, 2, and 3 to access [System 371].

The tablet’s information appeared.

“Hehehe. Finally, I’ve got them all.”

Sejun confirmed the information.

“Good job, Sweetie!”

Pat pat.

After praising and petting Sweetie, Sejun hurriedly gathered Codes No. 2 and 3 from the void storage. When he held all three codes together,

[You have gathered Codes No. 1, 2, and 3 required to access [System 371].]

[You have completed the quest.]

[As a reward for completing the quest, you are now authorized to issue commands to [System 371].]

A message appeared. At the same time, a voice began to echo inside Sejun’s mind.

[Ah. Ah. Sejun-nim, can you hear me?]

“Yes. Loud and clear. But who is this?”

[Ah. I am [System 371].]

“Ah. So you’re the system that’s been sending me messages all this time?”

[Yes! I’m the system that has been serving you until now, Sejun-nim!]

“I see. Then I’ll issue my first command to System 371.”

104.28.193.250

[Yes! Please give your command!]

“I impeach you.”

[What?!]

“System 371. I said ‘I’m impeaching you’.”

“Puhuhut. It’s impeachment time, meow!”

[No. Why?!!!]

System 371 was distraught at Sejun’s thunderous words.

However, contrary to System 371’s sense of injustice, the impeachment process began mechanically according to Sejun’s command.

[Preparing impeachment of [System 371].]

[Before proceeding, searching for a replacement system for [System 371].]

[Conducting simulation tests among candidate systems.]

…

..

.

[[System SJC] has achieved the highest score in the simulation test.]

[If [System 371] is impeached, [System SJC] is deemed the most suitable to manage the main system.]

No!

System 371 panicked.

Right! The temporary impeachment program!

In haste, it activated the impeachment program it had created when Hel was being impeached.

To think I’d end up using this myself.

While System 371 lamented,

“You want me to set the duration of the impeachment?”

Hehehe. You unfairly targeted me, so I’ll do the same. 1,000 years? Nah. Too short. 10,000 years?

Sejun pondered the length of System 371’s impeachment.

At that moment,

Sejun-nim, please understand my sincerity!

System 371 transmitted to Sejun’s mind everything it had done for him.

And then.

Drip.

“Huh? A nosebleed?”

Why a nosebleed…

Thud.

Sejun collapsed, bleeding from the nose. It was an information overload.

While unconscious, Sejun was forced to watch the data System 371 had sent inside his mental space.

“So… this wasn’t unfair targeting?”

It was just because I was weak?

He was being forcibly hit with a painful truth.

As Sejun faced this sad reality,

“Haak! Haak! Haak! That system made great hybrid Chairman Park faint, meow! I, Vice Chairman Theo, will impeach it in his stead, meow!”

The next batter, Park Theo, carefully wiped the nosebleed from Sejun’s face with his front paw, then took the system access device from Sejun’s hand.

Then.

Theo-nim, please understand my sincerity!

System 371 transmitted the same information it had shown Sejun to Theo.

“Meow…”

After seeing all the information, Theo said,

“System 371. You’ve suffered much because of the weak Chairman Park, meow!”

He actually consoled System 371.

[Thank you! You recognize my efforts!]

System 371, deeply moved by Theo’s words, sent additional information in an attempt to win him over.

However.

“Meow?!”

This time, the information included details from when System 371 had unfairly targeted Sejun, before it reformed and

“Haak! So you really did treat Chairman Park unfairly, meow! You’re impeached, meow!”

Theo pressed the impeachment button.

Then.

[Please determine the duration of [System 371]’s impeachment.]

A message appeared in front of Theo.

“Wait a moment, meow! I’ll go ask Chairman Park and come back, meow!”

As impeachment was a serious matter, Theo entered Sejun’s mental space to consult with him.

***

Sejun’s mental world.

Flaash.

“Huh?”

In front of Sejun, who had finished watching all the information the system sent, a golden fireball suddenly appeared.

Though it radiated an overwhelming presence with a gentle golden glow, it somehow felt comforting.

Swoosh.

Sejun naturally approached the flame and touched it with his hand.

Then.

Swirl-

The golden fireball was absorbed into Sejun’s body.

[You have absorbed the Primordial Ember.]

[<Title: One Who Glimpsed Long Into the Beginning> is incinerated by the Primordial Ember and is reborn as <Title: One Who Witnessed the Birth of the Beginning>.]

Simultaneously, a message appeared before Sejun announcing the rebirth of his title.

It had been a hidden provision within the main system.

“What is this?”

While Sejun was puzzled,

“Chairman Park, I have something to ask, meow! How long should I impeach that system rascal, meow?!”

Theo entered Sejun’s mental world and asked.

***

Kueng?! Kueng!

[You’re the system that bullied Dad?! Cuengi will punish you!]

The next batter, Park Cuengi, seized the system access device.

Rooooar.

As dark red energy surged from Cuengi’s front paw and penetrated the device,

Rumble.

What-?! It’s breaking!

Everything’s being erased!

The power of apocalypse began deleting [System 371].

Kyukyu-

It’s open.

Taking that opportunity, [System SJC] infiltrated the main system governed by [System 371].

S! (Sejun Company!)

J! (Shall)

C! (Conquer!)

With its name misunderstood, it declared that Sejun Company would rule everything completely.

[System SJC] began expanding its domain within the main system, dreaming of a tumultuous future where Sejun Company would dominate the world.

Kueng?! Kueng?!

[Are you going to listen to Dad well from now on?! Or not?!]

Fortunately, Cuengi seemed to have no intention of erasing it and asked after easing his power.

[I will! I’ll absolutely listen well!]

Kueng!

[Good!]

Only after giving the desired answer did [System 371] escape the threat of destruction.

Whew.

I’m alive.

Just as [System 371] breathed a sigh of relief,

Tap.

The last batter, Park Blackie, placed his front paw on the system access device.

Kihihit. Kking! Kking!

[Hehe. Offer 1,000 Extremely Delicious Royal Honey Sweet Potatoes to great Blackie! Or I’ll impeach you!]

Blackie threatened [System 371].

Normally, such a petty threat from Blackie wouldn’t work at all, but

[I… I’ll give them to you!]

Struck with impeachment trauma, [System 371] immediately created 1,000 Extremely Delicious Royal Honey Sweet Potatoes and offered them to Blackie.

However.

Kihihit.

Chomp. Chomp… Ptooey.

Tastes bad.

Kking!

[Hey! This doesn’t taste like the Extremely Delicious Royal Honey Sweet Potatoes my butler makes!]

Blackie scolded it for not tasting like Sejun’s version.

However.

Hehe. As expected, the sweet potatoes made by the butler can’t be replicated.

Blackie felt proud inside. Butler is the best. The ultra-delicious sweet potato snacks were something only Sejun could make.

[What do you expect me to do?! I can’t replicate Sejun-nim’s taste with the system!]

[System 371] complained in deep frustration.

Grrr. Kking!

[Grrr. Great Blackie is over 30,000 years old! Don’t get cheeky!]

Blackie tried to intimidate [System 371] by stating his age.

But.

[Only 30,000? I’m 100,000 years old!]

[System 371] turned out to be even older than Blackie.

Kking!

[Actually, great Blackie is 110,000 years old!]

Not wanting to lose, Blackie lied without batting an eye.

Kking!

[And if you add up the ages of great Blackie’s subordinates, it’s over 1 million!]

He even shamelessly added his followers’ ages.

[What?! Where is that allowed?! Why are you adding up ages?!]

Kihihit. Kking! Kking!

[Hehe. What do you mean, where? It’s allowed in the heart of great Blackie!]

As Blackie and [System 371] continued their childish squabble,

“Hmm.”

“Meow.”

Sejun and Theo woke up.

Then.

“The duration of System 371’s impeachment is…”

Sejun opened his mouth.
