“Time to get to work.”
After having breakfast, Park Sejun went to Podori to harvest the grapes left from yesterday.
On Sejun’s back was Cuengi, who had fallen asleep while whining. Even though Sejun had given him an allowance, the mental shock of losing his allowance seemed quite severe.
Of course, Cuengi wasn’t the only one clinging to Sejun’s body. In the sling bag on his chest was Fenrir, and on his lap sat Theo.
Am I some kind of koala?
Sejun lightly lamented his situation and then,
“Good morning, Podori.”
After mixing the vegetables well, he added rice and stirred it again to make fried rice.
Then, he put the fried rice in a large frying pan with beaten eggs, wrapping the rice with the eggs to complete a giant omurice.
“It’s done. Here. Cuengi, draw whatever you want on the eggs.”
When Sejun gave Cuengi the tomato sauce to drizzle on the omurice, Cuengi eagerly started drawing.
[Hehehe. Cuengi will get another 10 five-star stamps and receive an allowance!]
Cuengi earnestly drew 50 stars. Cuengi was serious about the stars.
[Cuengi, finished the drawing!]
Cuengi happily ate the omurice at Sejun’s words.
“Blackie, enjoy your meal too.”
Sejun put omurice in Fenrir’s special bowl and gave it to him, then started eating.
After finishing lunch,
“Theo and Cuengi, please go catch some fish.”
“Puhuhut. Got it, meow! When it comes to fish, I, Vice Chairman Theo, am the best, meow!”
Sejun sent Theo and Cuengi to catch fish and went to the kitchen to make rice dough for garaetteok.
Sejun began preparing food for 5 million servings for the dragons’ meeting.
[You’ve gained 5000 experience points, which is 50% of the experience points earned by Guard Theo.]
[Herbalist Cuengi has defeated a giant mackerel.]
[You’ve gained 7000 experience points, which is 50% of the experience points earned by Herbalist Cuengi.]
As Sejun was kneading the rice dough, Messages appeared before his eyes
Messages appeared almost every second.
“Were there always this many fish in the pond?”
Sejun, unaware that Flamie’s roots were driving monsters from the sea into the pond, was puzzled.
[You have gained 1 bonus stat.]
[Strength increased by 10.]
Thanks to this, Sejun leveled up comfortably while kneading the rice dough.
Since the amount that needed to be made was enormous, even after making dough again and again, there was still a lot left to make.
“Chairman Park, we brought the fish, meow!”
When Sejun saw the fish that Theo and Cuengi had brought,
‘This isn’t going to work…’
He realized that it was impossible to prepare 5 million servings with just this team.
So, he summoned Ajax, Veronica, Zelga, and Orik and assigned roles to each of them.
“Cuengi and Ajax, knead the rice dough for Garaetteok. Theo and Veronica, handle the fruits. Zelga and Orik, prepare the fish.”
After assigning the tasks, Sejun stirred the liquor in the jar at the brewery and returned.
“Hey! Who’s prepares the fish like that?!”
He shouted at Zelga, who was completely mashing the fish instead of just cleaning it.
“No, this is how… to make the extract…”
“Who said to make the extract? Just remove the guts.”
“Kekeke. Sejun-nim, I was doing it properly.”
Orik grinned slyly at Sejun, who was scolding Zelga, showing the fish he had prepared.
“Good. You’re doing well.”
“Zelga, this is how you do it.”
Sejun taught Zelga how to clean the fish again.
Just as he was about to get back to his own work, Sejun witnessed a horrifying scene.
Orik scratched his butt, then picked his nose, scratched his ear, and continued to handle the fish with the same hand.
“Kekeke. Yes, what is it?”
“Who told you to touch the food with hands that you scratched your butt, picked your nose, and scratched your ear with?”
“Kekeke. Is that a problem?”
Orik asked in a voice that implied he didn’t understand what the issue was. Apparently, goblins had no concept of hygiene.
“You’re eating all of that…”
“Kekeke. Oh, thank you.”
Orik eagerly took the fish, even the ones Zelga had mashed.
Was this his plan all along?
Sejun thought as he watched Orik’s sly smile.
After that, Sejun assigned Orik to garbage cleaning.
Two days passed just processing the ingredients.
The Blue Moon, which Sejun was encountering for the 14th time since entering the tower, rose.
A blue moon in the dark night sky.
Finally, the background befitting the name Blue Moon was set.
Sejun spoke as he looked at the Blue Moon.
At first, it was a terrifying moon that caused monsters to rampage, but now, it was just a beautiful moon.
“Hehehe. It’s also a moon that makes the crops better.”
Sejun smiled contentedly as he looked at the fields where blue energy was forming.
[Receiving the voice message orb requires 1 million Tower Coins.]
[Would you like to receive the voice message orb?]
A voice message orb sent by Stella had arrived.
“She really sends these diligently. I’ll accept it.”
Sejun received the voice message orb.
[You can now send a reply to Stella Hisron, the great silver dragon and the 10th Tower’s Helper.]
A new message appeared before Sejun.
“I can send a reply?”
Moreover, sending a reply didn’t cost him any money.
“Then I’ll send this.”
Sejun sent the voice message orb that Stella’s mother, Crisella Hisron, had requested to Stella.
And so, the voice message orb went to Stella.
“Hmph! Finally, a reply.”
Stella played the voice message orb.
