Black Tower Administrative Area.
“Kuehehehe. Delicious.”
Aileen was taking a break while searching for powers of destruction using the destruction detector and was enjoying some Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power.
The crystal orb vibrated.
Aileen shoved the remaining cherry tomatoes into her mouth and checked the crystal orb.
As Sejun offered the Special Walnut of Training to Fenrir,
‘It makes me stronger!’
Fenrir bit into the walnut and cracked it open.
Sejun cracked open five walnuts and scooped out the walnut inside the shell, and gave it to Piyot,
‘Hey! You should give me something to eat too!’
“Alright, Blackie, eat this.”
In front of Sejun, Fenrir, who was eagerly barking at his food bowl, received some fish meat filleted by Sejun in his bowl.
“Hey! You guys leave some for me!”
Sejun quickly scooped out the remaining sujebi from the nearly empty pot into a bowl and began to eat.
Refreshed by the spicy and cool taste, Sejun sweated profusely as he ate the sujebi.
After Sejun finished eating the sujebi,
[Special Effect: Camouflage makes you invisible for 30 minutes.]
Triggered by the effect of camouflage, Sejun disappeared.
Kkihihit. Kking. Kking.
‘Heheh. I’m full. Now I need to ask my butler to pet my belly.’
Fenrir, having happily filled his belly with fish meat, looked around for Sejun.
Not seeing Sejun, Fenrir began earnestly running around searching for him.
‘I can definitely smell him! Hey, where are you?!’
Fenrir pressed his nose to the ground and earnestly tracked Sejun’s scent.
Fenrir, while still in camouflage, bumped into Cuengi’s behind and fainted. As expected, Fenrir was as fragile as a sunfish, just as Sejun had recognized.
[Blackie, what are you doing here? Daddy, Blackie is sleeping here!]
Cuengi picked up the fainted Fenrir and delivered him to Sejun.
“Why is he sleeping here?”
Sejun placed Fenrir into the sling bag. Nobody thought that Fenrir had fainted.
After Sejun had dinner,
“”Okay. You just need to add a bucket of shrimp and a handful of salt and sprinkle it on.”
While he and his companions were preparing shrimp paste by adding freshwater shrimp and salt to a jar,
-Sejun. I am deeply disappointed…
Suddenly, the King of Farming, whose bone assembly had finished, spoke with golden eyes, conveying Leah’s feelings of being disappointment to Sejun.
“Huh? What did I do…?”
-You built a temple for the God of Pebbles, Peblos, didn’t you? And you didn’t build one for me?
At Leah’s words, Sejun fell into thought for a moment. Ah… Is she he talking about the 3.3 square meter Peblos Road?
That was indeed all he had made for Peblos.
But… seeing her call the road a temple, it seemed like they couldn’t see this side at all from over there.
“I actually wanted to build your temple first, Leah~nim. But as you know, building a temple requires a lot of money.”
So he exaggerated a bit. Just using the Land Moving skill, he could easily make something like a road.
However, Sejun had a miraculous logic: using skills consumes magic power, using magic power makes him hungry, and filling his stomach requires money.
-Of course! Building a temple would indeed require a lot of money!
Leah agreed with Sejun’s words.
“Yes. But since Peblos nim offered me wealth, I had no choice but to build his temple first.”
-I see. Sejun, I will give you five bottles of Harvest Elixir as the cost for building my temple.
-That’s right! And… ahem. I hope my temple is bigger than Peblos’s and attracts more visitors.
Ah, foot traffic is also important.
Sejun, enriched by the good information from Leah.
“Of course! I’ll build a massive temple for you in a better location than Peblos nim’s temple!”
Five bottles of Harvest Elixir would be worth 50 billion Tower Coins…
He could just pave a 16.5 square meter stone engraved with Leah’s name on a path well-traveled by mushroom ants and call it Leah Road.
Sejun responded after making an estimate,
“Ah, but… do you have any other divine items like the Golden Box of Abundance?”
Sejun asked Leah if there were any more divine items.
-That… It’s difficult now, so I’ll give it to you later. Then for now…
Leah, unable to admit she couldn’t create it due to a lack of divine power, hastily tried to leave when
“Eh?! Aren’t you selling any Harvest Elixirs today?”
Sejun quickly called Leah back, thinking of buying a large amount of elixirs since he had plenty of money.
-…Those 5 potions just now were all I had.
Leah answered with a somber voice. Making elixirs required not only divine power but also time.
“Ah… then take this.”
Sejun, feeling uneasy about Leah’s response, took out 50 billion Tower Coins and handed them to Leah.
“I’ll take the temple costs later. Pay me back when you can.”
-Oh! Thank you, Park Sejun! You are very kind! I will surely repay this favor!
Leah spent all the time she could praising Sejun before returning.
[Mental Strength increases by 10.]
Thanks to Leah’s praise, Sejun’s Mental Strength increased.
“Hehehe. I’ll have to treat her well and earn more praises next time.”
Sejun, thinking that he should also receive praise along with wealth the next time he meets the gods, placed the Harvest Elixir in the void storage and then said,
“Guys, let’s go home. Toryong!”
He called Toryong and prepare to return home.
The territory of the Great Golden Dragon.
“Eek! A mere 200-year-old dares to call me, the great Golden Dragon H, a weak hatchling?!”
Hokus, lying in a fluffy golden cradle, got worked up while reading Aileen’s letter.
“Hmph! I, Hokus, will show how strong a hatchling I am!”
Hokus resolved himself as he got out of the golden cradle.
“Waaaaah! Mom-! I want to go to the Black Tower!”
