: IT'S REFRESHING?
TL: Hanguk
Grrrr.
Swoosh.
Fenrir, who had stretched out his short legs and got up at the sound of Sejuns snoring.
Kking?
Is it morning?
Fenrir thought it was morning looking at Sejun sleeping beside him, but it wasnt.
It was just that Sejun had gone to bed early, and Fenrir had eaten black royal jelly, which made him stronger and shortened his fainting time.
However,
Kking! Kking!
Hey! Im hungry! Give me food!
Tap. Tap.
Unaware of this, Fenrir woke Sejun up by hitting his face with his front paws to get breakfast.
Ugh What?
Sejun opened his eyes, somewhat roughly compared to Theos massage, due to Fenrirs front paws.
As Sejun opened his eyes,
Kking? Kking!
Youre up? Hurry up and give me food!
Chuk.
Fenrir quickly sat in front of Sejun, vigorously wagging his tail, asking for food.
Our Blackie is hungry? Got it.
Sejun took out a dried sweet potato and gave it to Fenrir.
Chomp. Chomp. Chomp.
While Fenrir was enjoying the dried sweet potato,
Chairman Park, are you awake, meow?
Theo, who had been sleeping on Sejuns knees, woke up and asked.
Yes. Vice Chairman Theo, but why am I here?
Sejun, curious about why he was lying in bed, asked Theo.
Meow
Big trouble, meow! Theo, unable to say that he had knocked him out, made a troubled expression. What do I do, Aileen noona?
Theo sent an SOS to Aileen.
[The Towers Administrator says not to worry.]
[The Towers Administrator says theres a way to divert Sejuns attention.]
Aileen confidently said.
And
-Where is our Sejun?!
Kaiser called for Sejun from outside.
Aileen had sent Kaiser straight to Sejun.
Puhuhut. Aileen noona, youre amazing, meow!
[The Towers Administrator says its natural for a great Black Dragon to be excellent.]
Right, meow! Aileen noona is great and excellent, meow!
While Aileen and Theo were having their conversation,
Yes! Im here!
Sejun hurriedly got up and went outside.
Kking?!
Where are you going?!
Thud. Thud.
Fenrir also moved to follow Sejun, who was his protector.
However,
Kking!
Lets go together!
As the distance between them grew, Fenrir could not keep up with Sejun with his strides.
Kking! Kking!
Hey! Take me with you!
Thud. Thud.
Fenrir called out to Sejun, earnestly chasing after him.
***
-Is this the Creator Gods Tablet?
Tier, who followed Kaiser, discovered the Creator Gods Tablet placed in front of Sejuns house.
And
[First Commandment Only the Tower Farmer can prevent destruction.]
A commandment was written there.
This cant be
Tier had thought that fighting destruction was the mission of the great nine dragon tribes.
Because they thought it was their mission. They were the strongest, after all.
The great nine dragon tribes, ruling over nine attributes.
The Golden Dragon, ruling over lightning.
The Red Dragon and Blue Dragon, ruling over fire and water.
The Brown Dragon and Silver Dragon, ruling over earth and wind.
The Green Dragon and Purple Dragon, ruling over nature and poison.
The Black Dragon and White Dragon, ruling over darkness and light.
Therefore, Tier had only thought of becoming the greatest among the nine dragon tribes, leading them, and defeating destruction.
But not us?!
While Tier was in shock,
Oh? Who is this?
Sejun, who came outside, asked upon seeing a new statue of a Purple Dragon.
-Hahaha. This is Tier Peten. The leader of the Purple Dragons.
Kaiser introduced Tier.
Ah. Tier~nim , hello. Im Park Sejun, the Tower Farmer of the Black Tower.
-Its you Where is Becca?
Hiding his emotional turmoil, Tier asked coldly about Veronicas whereabouts, ignoring Sejuns greeting.
Becca?
-Yes! Veronica!
Ah Becca is Veronica. Just a moment, please.
In response to Tiers question, as Sejun hurriedly looked around for Veronica,
Its a shame we couldnt decide a winner.
Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Exactly. Lets fight again next time.
Yes. But using my strength made me hungry.
Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Lets go and have lunch quickly. Im sure Sejun will make something delicious for us.
Really?! Hehe. Im looking forward to it.
Veronica was walking over, talking amicably with Iona placed on her palm.
Their contest ended in a draw, leaving just one fire ant alive.
Because the last fire ant was the fire ant queen. They couldnt exterminate the fire ants.
So, they decided to temporarily share the second rank in the hierarchy, awaiting their next contest.
Naturally, Pink-fur and Cuengi were pushed to fourth and fifth in the hierarchy.
-Becca!
Tier called out to the approaching Veronica.
Uh?! Tier~nim?!
Veronica was startled to find the Purple Dragon statue, which was supposed to be on the 99th floor of the Purple tower.
-Yes, its me! Becca, why have you come to the Black Tower?! Who has persecuted you and forced you into asylum?! Is it this guy?!
Tier asked, glaring at Iona on Veronicas hand. Iona was a possibility.
The first suspicion should fall on Sejun, the Tower Farmer,
But, its definitely not him.
Tier immediately recognized Sejuns insignificance upon seeing him.
Tier quickly eliminated Sejun from the list of suspects.
DdalKyuk. Kyuk. Kyuk.
Startled by Tiers strong aura suddenly directed at her, Iona began to hiccup.
Iona!
Dont bully Iona, meow!
Sejun and Theo quickly stepped in front of Iona and Veronica.
And
-SEJUN!
-Tier, withdraw your aura!
-Have you forgotten the content of the contract?!
Three dragons were startled by Sejuns actions and surrounded Tier.
Then,
Tier~nim, I came to the Black Tower of my own accord, without any coercion. Im sorry.
Veronica stepped forward quickly, as the situation escalated because of her.
-What?! Why Why did you do that?!
Tier asked in disbelief at Veronicas words.
It was hard living in the Purple Tower.
What?! My Purple Tower couldnt possibly be
Tier was shocked by Veronicas words, thinking the Purple Tower was the best.
Veronicas words meant it was difficult to live there because of the poison, but Tier interpreted it differently.
My managed Purple Tower is inferior to the Black Tower?!
Well to some extent, it was true, although that wasnt Veronicas intention.
-Tier, if the misunderstanding is cleared, leave now. Sejun, are the black beans ready?
Leaving a disheartened Tier behind, Kaiser asked Sejun.
Yes. But now there are four of you
Sejun said, glancing at Tier.
There were six black beans. A fight here must be avoided
-Hahaha. Dont worry. Tier has decided not to buy anything from the Black Tower.
-Uhahaha. Right. He said he absolutely wont buy.
-Phahaha. Exactly.
The dragons were delighted that Tier couldnt buy the black beans.
Is that so? Then
Sejun was relieved by the dragons words and was about to take out the black beans with his left hand when
Kking!
Black fruit!
Fenrir, who had eagerly followed Sejun, got excited upon seeing the black beans.
And
Chuk.
Kking! Kking!
Im sitting! Give me the black fruit quickly!
Fenrir sat in front of Sejun, asking for the black beans.
Got it. Here.
Swoosh.
Sejun stealthily took out a piece of black royal jelly from his pocket with his right hand
Pop.
and put it into Fenrirs mouth.
And
Kking
I lasted a bit lo
Fenrir fainted after enduring a little longer than before.
Piyot, please lay Blackie on the bed.
Piyo!
[Yes!]
Flap. Flap.
Piyot flew with Fenrir to the bed.
With Fenrir gone,
Here are six black beans.
Sejun sold the black beans to the dragons.
Chuk. Chuk. Chuk.
The dragons took two black beans each from Sejuns hand and handed over their money bags.
And Tier, who could only watch this happen.
Right! I remember now, the black beans were grown by the Tower Farmer of the Black Tower!
What have I done?! Tier regretted his contract once again when
[The Towers Administrator says that if Veronica buys the black beans with money and gives them to Grandpa Tier, it wont be a breach of contract.]
Queen of Internal Affairs, Aileen, suggested a way for Tier to buy the black beans.
-Oh! Then that would work. Thank you, Aileen.
Tier was grateful to Aileen for the good suggestion.
[The Towers Administrator says that Grandpa Tier should then prepare plenty of Tower Coins to buy the black beans.]
-Yes. Thanks to you, Aileen, Ive already prepared plenty of Tower Coins.
Tier answered in a warm voice.
[The Towers Administrator says well done.]
[The Towers Administrator says there are about 1000 bottles of Samyangju left at the brewery and suggests buying them through Veronica.]
-Really? There are 1000 bottles of Samyangju?! Becca, come here for a moment.
Hearing Aileens words, Tier called Veronica over.
Yes
Veronica approached Tier, nervous she might be scolded.
After a moment,
Um Sejun~nim, could I possibly buy some Samyangju?
Samyangju? Why do you need Samyangju?
Since Veronica disliked alcohol, Sejun asked.
Its an errand for Tier~nim.
Veronica quietly pointed towards Tier.
Ah understood.
Sejun took Veronica to the brewery and traded for the Samyangju.
And
Tier~nim, here you go.
Veronica handed over the Samyangju she bought from Sejun to Tier.
-Yes. Well done.
Tier answered in a very cheerful voice.
The idea of taking Veronica back to the Purple Tower vanished from Tiers mind.
In fact, even if Veronica decided to return to the Purple Tower, he planned to persuade her to stay in the Black Tower.
As the trade with the dragons concluded,
Grrr.
A sound came from Sejuns stomach.
Ah. I need to eat.
Sejun hurried to the kitchen to start cooking.
The lunch menu was kimchi egg porridge. Today, he planned to make only kimchi dishes.
Ssssss.
Sejun boiled rice flour in a pot filled with water.
While the rice flour turned into porridge,
Chop. Chop. Chop.
He took out a whole kimchi, chopped it finely,
Sizzle.
And stir-fried it in a frying pan.
Once the kimchi was fried, he added it to the pot making porridge.
Stir. Stir.
He mixed the kimchi and porridge with a ladle.
A moment later,
Kueng?!
[Whats Dad making?!]
Peep!
[It smells delicious!]
Ppyak?!
[Is Uncle making something delicious again?!]
The animals, who had been lazily sleeping in the cave after breakfast, started to peek into the kitchen, drawn by the smell of cooking.
Its ready. Eat this while you wait.
Sejun said, taking out grilled green onions from the fire.
Breakfast was eaten in a space full of memories, so lunch would be accompanied by a nostalgic dish.
It was the nostalgic dish of grilled green onions.
Crunch. Crunch.
The animals began to enjoy the grilled green onions that Sejun had piled up on a plate.
Oh! This is really delicious!
Veronica, experiencing the new dish, excitedly chewed three green onions at once.
Tap. Tap.
Meanwhile, Sejun was breaking open egg fruits and adding their contents to the porridge when,
-Whats that?
While drinking Samyangju with the other dragons, Tier, who had followed the refreshing scent that invigorated his heart, asked upon seeing the grilled green onions.
The Purple Dragon statue was upgraded to be able to smell as well.
This is grilled green onion. Tier~nim, would you like to try some?
Veronica carefully offered the grilled green onion to Tier.
-Hmph!
Tier snorted, indicating he was not impressed.
If you dont like it, Ill
Before Veronica could put grilled green onion in her mouth, not insisting further,
-When did I say I didnt like it?!
Swoosh.
Tier quickly snatched the grilled green onions from Veronica and put them in his mouth.
Thus, Tier, through spatial movement magic in his mouth, held the grilled green onions in his hand.
Chew.
Tier, who was in the Purple Tower, put the grilled green onion in his mouth.This belongs to - ©.
And then,
Sssah
Huh?! Its refreshing?
The detoxifying green onion made Tiers previously stuffy chest feel a bit more comfortable.
