Solo Farming In The Tower

TL: Hanguk

Black Tower, 99th floor.

“Alright.”

As Sejun woke up,

[The Dragon Fruit with the Ambiguous Dragon Park Sejun’s Energy has gained a great enlightenment while using Beginner Magic Swordsmanship.]

…

..

.

[You have mastered Beginner Magic Swordsmanship.]

[Beginner Magic Swordsmanship (Master) has advanced to Intermediate Magic Swordsmanship Lv. 1.]

[Strength has increased by 100.]

[Stamina has increased by 80.]

[Agility has increased by 50.]

[Magic power has increased by 50.]

[Due to the effects of <Power: Super Sunfish Dual Core> and <Power: Resilient Young Dragon’s Solid Bones>, all stat potentials have increased by 110.]

[Due to the effects of <Power: Super Sunfish Dual Core> and <Power: Resilient Young Dragon’s Solid Bones>, all stats have increased by 11.]

Messages floated in front of Sejun.

“Hehehe. Finally intermediate level.”

After struggling for so long, his swordsmanship skill had finally advanced. Thanks to Sejun No. 3’s training with Bochi throughout the early morning, he had mastered the beginner level and stepped into the intermediate stage.

Starting the day with good news, Sejun was in a great mood.

“Meow…”

Kking…

As he came out with Theo and the Blackie Family

[Hehe! Good morning, Sejun-nim!]

He saw Flamie basking in the sun.

“Yeah. Good morning to you too, Flamie.”

Sejun greeted Flamie back and lifted her onto his shoulder.

“Shall we take a walk?”

[Hehe! Yes!]

While walking around the farm, Sejun let his footsteps be heard by the crops and harvested the ripe ones

[The Cheongyang Chili Pepper of Agony is grateful for the farmer’s footsteps and lends you its strength.]

[The effect of <Great Blessing of the Crops (Master)> activates, increasing the potential of your magic power stat potential from 48,192 to 48,202.]

His potential was steadily rising.

“Just a little more, and I’ll hit 50,000 magic power potential.”

Checking the messages, Sejun murmured to himself.

Then, he took out the portal scroll, which served both as a family portrait and a portal to the Temple of the Creator God, and checked its usage conditions.

– Usage Restriction: Black Tower’s Tower Farmer Park Sejun with at least 50,000 pure magic power.

“But…”

How was he supposed to reach 50,000 pure magic power?

Sejun pondered.

Until now, the only reason he wanted to use the portal scroll was to visit Amur Lange and scold him for not properly drawing his face in the portrait.

So he had assumed he’d hit 50,000 pure magic power someday and had taken things easy.

There was no rush.

However, after his conversation with Blackie yesterday, everything changed.

He had learned that Destruction was supposed to be the next Creator God.

He wanted to understand why the next Creator God had fallen into corruption, and if possible, he wanted to help.

After all, he had the Destruction Devourers, which could purify the energy of destruction, and he had the power to eradicate corruption.

When the time came to battle against the corruption that had turned Destruction, the next Creator God, into what he was now, he planned to contribute his strength.

‘Of course, I’ll be support.’

Naturally, he had no intention of fighting on the front lines.

“First, I need to raise my magic power potential as much as possible.”

As long as his magic power potential was high, raising pure magic power would be easy. He just needed to eat crops that boosted the magic power stat.

And Sejun had a trump card.

‘If I learn Beginner Aura Swordsmanship, I’ll get stronger in no time.’

He was anticipating the rewards that came with reaching new realms.

When Bochi had learned Beginner Aura Swordsmanship, his stat potentials had increased by 100,000, and all his stats had risen by 5,000, making him incredibly powerful in an instant.

Thanks to his heartbreak, Bochi had been channeling his emotions into training and had advanced from beginner to intermediate in just three days.

‘Even if I’m slow, I can master Advanced Aura Swordsmanship in ten days.’

Please, Master Bo, keep growing!

A truly exemplary disciple, Sejun wholeheartedly wished for his master’s growth.

However,

Bororong.

His supposedly reliable master was lying next to Sejun No. 3, completely covered in a blanket, sleeping soundly without a single worry in the world.

It seemed he had burned through all his passion, fueled by heartbreak.

“In that case, I’ll just have to refill his fuel.”

It looked like Bochi needed stronger motivation.

This time, Sejun planned to prepare an even greater heartbreak for him.

After quickly eating breakfast with his companions, Sejun descended to the 75th floor of the Tower.

“Hegel, do you happen to have any unmarried Black Wolves left?”

“There are plenty. What’s the matter?”

“Well, actually…”

Sejun requested the Black Wolf Tribe’s chieftain, Hegel, to find a bride who would completely and utterly reject Bochi. Then, he returned to the 99th floor of the Tower.

And,

“Door summon.”

He moved to the 10th tower to get Destruction Devourer seeds and

[You’re a Field Lv. 9 has been activated.]

[You planted Destruction Pioneer seeds in the body of Melpheus, the Demon of Ruin and 4th seat of the Apostles of Destruction.]

…

..

.

He planted the Destruction Pioneer seeds.

At that moment,

[You’re a Field Lv. 9 has reached full proficiency and leveled up.]

Sejun’s You’re a Field skill had reached the Master level.

The Master-level effect allowed him to activate Stat Harvest once every 100 harvests, granting him +10 to all stats.

Although this was significantly less than what he could obtain through normal Stat Harvest, the upside was that he could trigger it over 100 times a day if he wanted to, making it a worthwhile trade-off.

A short while later,

“Hamer-nim, give me the Enhancing Elixir.”

Having completed all his tasks, Sejun asked Hamer for the elixir before leaving.

Then,

[Hamer, the God of Farming says here you go.]

A single drop of the Enhancing Elixir appeared in Sejun’s hand.

“Huh?! Why only one drop?”

The last time he had received the Enhancing Elixir was nearly a month ago.

Since Stella had been helping make it, Sejun should have been getting two drops by now.

[Hamer, the God of Farming, says in an aggrieved tone that Stella used the one-month vacation pass you gave her five days ago and is currently resting in the Silver Tower, so the production speed of the Enhancing Elixir has slowed down.]

“A vacation pass?”

I gave that to her?

5 days ago… that’s Christmas?

So Santa Sejun must have handed it out.

“But… what gift did I give to Patrick-nim? I suddenly can’t remember.”

Curious about what Patrick had received from Santa Sejun, Sejun asked.

[Hamer, the God of Farming says you gave him a divine relic that can use Void Storage Farm, and to Patrick-nim a divine relic that can create 330 million square meters of land.]

“Oh, right! I did give that to him!”

Wait… He got a divine relic as a Christmas gift?!

Santa Sejun! What about me?!

Why didn’t I get anything?!

Hearing what the gods had received made Sejun feel a sharp pang of jealousy. A huge pang.

“Meow?!”

[Chairman Park, your face is getting ugly again, meow!]

Squish. Squish.

Noticing Sejun’s jealousy-filled expression, Theo hurriedly stepped on him to snap him out of it.

And so, with Theo’s kneading, Sejun returned to the Black Tower.

“Grrrr. So, you’re Bochi?”

Ppyak?!

[Are you the one who will marry me?]

“Hmph! You look so scrawny, do you even have what it takes to stand by my side?”

Sejun spotted Helena, the daughter of Chieftain Hegel, conversing with Bochi. She had been sent by Hegel to reject Bochi as brutally as possible.

Ppyak! Ppyak!

[I may not look it, but I’m a strong man! Let me show you!]

“What?!”

At Helena’s provocation, Bochi grabbed two wooden swords and,

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Promptly beat her up.

Master Bo, I told you to go easy!

Watching the scene unfold, Sejun was stunned. It seemed Bochi had no concept of moderation.

Then again… maybe this was actually a good thing?

The harsher the rejection, the greater the heartbreak. Hehehe.

A little while later,

“You think you can get married after beating a woman like that?! Just stay single for life!”

Ppyak… Ppyak…

[No, wait, this is…]

Helena wasn’t acting, she genuinely meant every word. After mercilessly tearing into Bochi with her words, she stormed off, descending the Tower.

And

Ppyak…

[But… I did my best…]

Bochi, shocked from the rejection, slumped down on the floor in despair. He still didn’t seem to understand what he did wrong.

“Phew.”

Yeah, he deserved that.

Sejun let out a sigh as he looked at Bochi.

Even though he had orchestrated this, Bochi’s 300 years of single life experience had proven to be overwhelmingly strong.

Even without intervention, Sejun would have bet a whole handful of Blackie’s fur that Bochi would have been rejected 100% of the time.

I need to bring an absolutely strong bride candidate for Master Bo.

As Sejun was adding ‘overwhelming strength’ to Bochi’s bride candidate requirements

Kking…

Blackie began to whimper.

It meant Corruption had appeared.

Sejun quickly stroked Blackie to calm him down and turned his gaze,

Kkirorong.

…

..

.

Soon, the Blackie Family started snoring and sleeping well.

“This should be fine now.”

After confirming that Blackie was fine, Sejun turned his attention away and entered the dimensional gate.

“Huh? There’s nothing today?”

Sejun, who first entered <Earthworm> through the dimensional door, was disappointed when he didn’t see Tears of Destruction anywhere.

What he didn’t know was that the increased production of Energy of Creation from <Earthworm> had eliminated the tiny gaps through which the Tears of Destruction used to seep.

While Sejun was scanning his surroundings, Theo, Cuengi, and Blackie emerged from the dimensional gate and ran toward him.

After gathering his group,

“Here, take these.”

Sejun handed out Destruction Devourer Seeds to the Destruction Sejuns, and together, they planted the seeds.

While they were planting seeds,

…

..

.

[Intermediate Magic Swordsmanship has reached Lv. 3.]

A message appeared in front of Sejun.

Bochi had begun training, using the pain of heartbreak as fuel.

[Intermediate Magic Swordsmanship has reached Lv. 4.]

…

..

.

[Intermediate Magic Swordsmanship has reached Lv. 8.]

The notifications kept popping up every 10 minutes, a testament to how intensely Bochi was training.

Hehehe.Master Bo is on fire.

Sejun smiled with satisfaction, finished planting all the Destruction Devourer seeds, and returned to the Black Tower, and

By the time he got back, Bochi had reached a level where he could control five swords simultaneously using mind sword technique.

Then when the next morning came

[Bochi, the Hero of <Hamk>, the One Who Wields Ten Sword.]

Bochi was moving ten swords, and

Wooong.

Meanwhile, Sejun No. 3’s sword was beginning to radiate black aura.

He had finally reached the level where he could use aura.

[You have mastered Advanced Magic Swordsmanship.]

[You can now imbue your sword with aura.]

[As your swordsmanship has ascended, Advanced Magic Swordsmanship (Master) has evolved into Beginner Aura Swordsmanship Lv. 1.]

[All stat potentials have increased by 10,000.]

104.28.193.250

[All stats have increased by 500.]

Multiple messages appeared in front of Sejun.

“Huh?!”

Master Bo, didn’t you say that learning Beginner Aura Swordsmanship gives you 100,000 to all stat potentials and 5,000 to all stats?!

“Why am I only getting one-tenth of that?”

Was he getting discriminated against even in this?!

“What a unfair world.”

Feeling bitter,

Crunch. Crunch.

Sejun shoved Elixir-grade Cherry Tomatoes into his mouth and chewed furiously.

[You have consumed an Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power.]

[Magic power has increased by 10.]

…

..

.

“Vitality.”

Using his Vitality skill to speed up digestion, Sejun kept eating more of the Elixir-grade Cherry Tomatoes.

By the time he was done, his magic power had increased by 10,000.

Raising magic power by 10,000 just by eating tomatoes…

If others saw this, they’d definitely call Sejun’s existence itself unfair.

And

“Hehehe. Aileen, good morning. Me? Of course, I dreamed of you.”

He even gets to talk with his girlfriend?!

Ppyak…

[…unfair world…]

Even Bochi, watching this, seethed with rage at the injustice of the world.

Ppyak! Ppyak!

[Sejun No. 3! Duel me right now! Your waist is open!]

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Unable to vent his frustration on Sejun, Bochi took it out on Sejun No. 3 instead.

[Beginner Aura Swordsmanship skill level has increased by 1.]

[Beginner Aura Swordsmanship has reached Lv. 2.]

Thanks to this, both Bochi and Sejun’s swordsmanship skills skyrocketed.

They were the perfect master-disciple pair, constantly pushing each other to new heights.

At that moment,

[Hehe. Sejun-nim, this is a healthy supplement, would you like to try it?]

Flamie held out an apple to Sejun.

Sejun had finally reached the level where he could consume Flamie’s lowest-grade nutritional supplements.
