Solo Farming In The Tower

TL: Hanguk

99th Floor of the Black Tower

[30 minutes remaining until the Grand Magic Stream Seed is complete.]

Swoosh.

The entrance of the Pouch of Abundance Crafted With Utmost Sincerity, slowly opened as the Grand Magic Stream Seed began to emerge.

This was because the pouch could no longer endure the increasingly powerful magic emitted by the seed.

This is dangerous!

Flamie quickly pulled the Grand Magic Stream Seed out of the pouch with her leaves and hastily buried it deep underground.

And then,

Sejun~nim, I think I need to go now.

As Flamie looked at Sejun with a heavy heart,

“Mm…”

Sejun opened his eyes.

[Hehe. Sejun~nim, you’re awake?!]

Thankfully, I’ll be able to say goodbye before leaving!

Seeing Sejun awake, Flamie was glad she could at least say her goodbyes.

“Mm. Did you rest well, Flamie?”

[Yes…]

Flamie intentionally replied weakly, trying to create an excuse to leave.

“Huh? Flamie, what’s wrong? Are you hurt somewhere?”

Hearing Flamie’s unusual tone, Sejun asked in a worried voice.

[Well… I think I need to go back and… rest again…]

“Already?! Didn’t you say you could move around for 10 days?”

Sejun believed Flamie, being somewhat fragile(?), would rest deep underground to regain her strength before coming back to him.

[Hehe… I guess I was wrong…]

Flamie awkwardly scratched her head with her leaves and replied weakly to Sejun’s question.

This time, she didn’t even need to pretend to sound pained. Her voice naturally trembled with sadness.

“I’m sorry… It must’ve been because I brought you somewhere too cold.”

[It’s not because of that!]

Flamie urgently shouted at Sejun’s apology.

Every moment spent with Sejun had been so joyful, and,

I don’t want Sejun~nim to feel bad!

She didn’t want Sejun to feel sorry.

[Hehe… Sejun~nim, I was really happy. I’ll come back again.]n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

“Mm. I’ll make sure you’re happy next time too, so recover quickly and come back. Got it?”

Sejun gently patted Flamie as he spoke.

[Yes!]

With a big smile after receiving Sejun’s pat, Flamie sank back into the ground as if being absorbed.

And then,

There’s no time!

Flamie quickly grabbed the Grand Magic Stream Seed she had buried earlier, which was in the process of completion, and hurriedly descended deeper underground. �

She needed to leave the 99th floor of the Black Tower.

In Flamie’s grasp, besides the Grand Magic Stream Seed, were also the square mittens Sejun had made for her and her 20 sunbathing coupons.

These are my treasures!

Everything Sejun gave her was precious.

Splash.

After descending quickly, Flamie escaped the 99th floor of the Black Tower and arrived at the Sea of Dimensions.

Kwoooom!

At that moment, the Grand Magic Stream Seed, having completed its evolution, exploded with magic power.

“You have passed the first trial, so I will release your seal.”

At the same time, Flamie’s seal, which was part of the first trial to become a Tree of Creation, began to release.

However,

“Huh?!”

Why am I so strong?!

Flamie was flustered by the immense power that surpassed her pre-sealed state.

This was all due to the Enhancing Elixir Sejun had secretly used on Flamie. Not just one drop, but two.

With her power sealed, Flamie hadn’t noticed any changes, but now that the seal was breaking, the effects were finally surfacing.

And so, the upgraded Level 2 Flamie Park was born.

Moreover,

“Since you brought a seed two grades higher than the test required, I’ll award you bonus points.”

With the voice of the trial statue, Flamie powered up once again, growing into a historically exceptional Tree of Creation candidate.

No! At this rate, I won’t be able to meet Sejun~nim!

Though she had grown stronger, there was no joy at all.

Unaware of her turmoil, the Grand Magic Stream Seed began rapidly extending its stems as it absorbed Flamie’s overflowing power.

***

“Flamie…”

As Sejun looked at the spot where Flamie had disappeared, feeling sad,

[You have achieved the primordial feat of germinating a Grand Magic Stream Seed.]

[As a reward for the primordial feat, you are granted <Power: Master of Grand Magic>.]

[This Power cannot be obtained with your current abilities.]

[<Title: One Who Glimpsed the Beginning> twists causality to provide a reward.]

[You are granted <Power: Master of Magic (Replica)> for one week.]

Messages appeared before Sejun.

“Huh?!”

Did I germinate the Grand Magic Stream Seed?!

When Sejun hurriedly checked the Pouch of Abundance Crafted With Utmost Sincerity,

“It’s gone?”

The pouch was completely empty.

What happened?

No matter how much he thought about it, Sejun couldn’t figure out how the seed had germinated on its own.

Ah. Does the seed automatically germinate elsewhere once it becomes the Grand Magic Stream Seed?

That explanation sounded somewhat plausible.

After all, there was no way a seed that required immense magic to germinate would sprout on its own.

“But didn’t it say ‘Replica’?”

Isn’t this unfair again?

Sejun felt confused as he sensed the massive power coursing through his body.

He felt an overwhelming surge of confidence, as if he could do anything.

What is this?!

Sejun quickly checked the Power details.

<Power: Master of Magic (Replica)>

– A weakened, one-week replica of the power to control all magic streams.

– All stats +20,000

– Magic power +70,000

– You can connect to the nine magic streams and use unlimited magic power for 10 minutes. (Can be used 3 times total.)

“Wow.”

This is just the weakened replica?

He couldn’t help but marvel.

He couldn’t even begin to imagine how powerful the original <Power: Master of Grand Magic> must be.

“But what does it matter?”

Flamie’s not here…

Sejun’s initial excitement quickly turned into gloom.

“I guess I’ll head back.”

Careful not to wake the sleeping Theo, Cuengi, and Blackie family, Sejun quietly stood up, gently lifted Ace, who was also asleep, and slung him over his shoulder. He trudged back home.

After walking for about an hour,

“Chairman Park, Cheer up , meow! Flamie will be fine, meow!”

Kueng! Kueng! Kueng!

[That’s right! Flamie~noona will be okay! You don’t need to worry!]

Theo and Cuengi, who knew Flamie’s true identity, comforted Sejun.

And then,

Kking?! Kking! Kking!

[Butler, are you in any position to worry about someone else?! Also, the great Blackie is hungry right now! Give me roasted and dried sweet potatoes!]

This doesn’t sit right with me!

Blackie, annoyed that Sejun was only worrying about Flamie, acted petulantly.

Thanks to their efforts, Sejun’s heavy steps gradually lightened.

“Oh? But with this level of power, couldn’t I meet Aileen?”

Sejun suddenly thought he might now be able to meet Aileen.

His original total stats were were around 47,000. With <Power: Master of Magic (Replica)>, his total stats increased to 150,000.

In other words, Sejun’s current total stats were close to 200,000, roughly on par with Ajax from a month ago.

Of course, that was Ajax from a month ago, and Ajax’s current total stats were around 300,000.

Since Ajax was still young, he was growing rapidly by the day, especially with Sejun’s crops accelerating his growth tremendously.

Moreover, the awakened Ajax could wield <Power: Holy Dragon’s Strength>, allowing him to use ten times his normal stats, meaning the gap between him and Sejun was immense.

But,

“Hehehe. I’m about as strong as Ajax now, so it should be fine to meet Aileen, right?”

Sejun’s optimistic circuit only worked in his favor.

Arriving home, Sejun gently set Ace down on the floor and,

“Aileen, shall we meet?”

Called out to Aileen.

Sejun was recklessly risking his life. Perhaps this was a male’s instinct.

[The Tower’s Administrator sadly says that if you meet her, you will be in danger.]

Fortunately, Aileen stopped Sejun from being reckless.

“Huh?! But I have a total stat of 200,000 right now?”

[The Tower’s Administrator says that her total stats are twice yours.]

“What?! Then Aileen’s total stats are 400,000?!”

[The Tower’s Administrator says it’s higher than that.]

“Then 600,000?”

[The Tower’s Administrator says it’s slightly higher than that.]

[The Tower’s Administrator says it’s 700,000.]

“Oh, I see… Haha. So, I only need to raise my stats by about 500,000 to meet you?”

Instead of despairing, Sejun spoke with a bright voice.

I’ve got it figured out!

He saw hope.

‘Why didn’t I think of this until now?!’

Stats gained through Power aren’t limited by potential.

In other words, rather than struggling to raise his potential, achieving multiple feats and gaining Powers to boost his stats would be a much faster way to meet Aileen.

Moreover, by obtaining new Powers, he might also gain something to make Flamie stronger too.

Hehehe. Then I’ll take Flamie with me on adventures every day.

Once again, Sejun’s optimistic circuits started firing again.

But what kind of achievements should I accomplish?

While Sejun was pondering,

[The Blue Tower’s Slave conveys that the great Blue Dragon Kin Aster formally requests your assistance, Sejun~nim.]

Zelga spoke to Sejun.

“A formal request for help?”

How is this different from what I’ve already been doing?

Since Sejun had been helping dragons regularly, he was puzzled.

At that moment,

[By the formal request of the great Blue Dragon Kin Aster, Black Tower’s Tower Farmer Park Sejun has been temporarily appointed as a Mid-level Administrator of the Blue Tower.]

[You have gained the Power to enter the Level 10 World <Drakenia>, which is connected to the Blue Tower.]

[A quest has been generated.]

[Quest: Go to <Drakenia> and stop the Invasion of Destruction. If <Drakenia> is more than 70% destroyed by Destruction, the 14,124 worlds supported by <Drakenia> will also face annihilation.]

All of your stay fee will be fully covered by the great Blue Dragon Kin Aster.

Rewards: Salvation of <Drakenia> and 14,124 other worlds, all stats +100, 1 power, official appointment as a Mid-level Administrator of the Blue Tower

Messages appeared in front of Sejun.

2a09:bac5:47ec:b05::119:17

This was his chance to achieve something!

Sejun had a good feeling about this.

A tattoo of a Blue Dragon appeared on the back of his right hand, proving his position as a Blue Tower’s Mid-level Administrator, but it was obscured by his Black Dragon tattoo.

“Oh, so if there’s a formal request, I can temporarily become a mid-level administrator. And he’ll even cover my stay fee?! This is perfect!”

Sejun marveled as he carefully read the messages.

The fact that he was being asked to fight Destruction didn’t worry him much. He had already fought and won against Destruction in several worlds.

Although it said 14,124 worlds would be destroyed if <Drakenia> was destroyed, he wasn’t too concerned about that either.

We’ll win!

After all, they had already defeated eight Apostles of Destruction. No matter what form Destruction took, he was confident in their victory.

Moreover, the reward included a Power, which fueled his motivation to win even more.

“But <Drakenia>, where dragons live, is a Level 10 world, huh?”

I wanted to go there anyway!

Sejun, now able to enter <Drakenia>, was excited at the thought of testing whether his dragon bones would be edible to dragons.

It would’ve been nice if Flamie could come to see the dragons too…

Thinking of Flamie made him feel a little sad.

Why didn’t the Enhancing Elixir seem to have any effect on her?

Sejun had no idea that Flamie had grown immensely strong because of the two drops of Enhancing Elixir he had secretly used on her, and that she was sad because of it.

“When I get there, I’ll stop by the 99th floor of the tower… What should I bring with me…?”

While Sejun was preparing to leave for the Blue Tower,

“Brother-in-law… Where are you going again?”

Ace, who had just woken up, asked in a sleepy voice.

“Mm. Something suddenly came up.”

“Puhing…”

At Sejun’s words, Ace immediately looked like he was about to cry.

“If Ace waits patiently, I’ll take you on another picnic.”

Sejun patted Ace’s head as he comforted him.

“Really?! We’ll play treasure hunt during the picnic too, right?”

“Mm. Of course we will.”

“Puhihihi. Alright! Then I’ll practice treasure hunting really hard until you come back, brother-in-law!”

“Good.”

After making a promise to Ace to go on a picnic when he returned, Sejun turned his attention back.

“Aileen, I…”

He told Aileen that he had received a quest from the great Blue Dragon Kin Aster.

[The Tower’s Administrator says to be careful and come back safely.]

Aileen wasn’t overly worried. Sejun had grown significantly stronger, and with the <Title: Dragon Race’s Helper>, the dragons wouldn’t dare look down on him.

“Mm. I’ll be back soon.”

Swoosh.

Sejun disappeared while unfolding the Blue Tower land deed.
