Inside Delia’s mental world.
The place was filled with rotten trees, stagnant water, and decaying corpses.
“Damn it! Everything should just rot!”
In the center, the gigantic demon Delia was absorbing the rotting things, shouting in anger.
Did I cause a team kill?
Since he had ordered the attack, Sejun started to feel guilty, wondering if he had accidentally killed Patrick.
“Phew. So you’re alive…”
Sejun sighed in relief. Fortunately, it seemed that he hadn’t killed Patrick.
‘But he just acknowledges my farming skills like that?’
Thank you, Patrick~nim. I’ll build a monument for you later.
Sejun, who believed in repaying faith with faith, made a vow.
Thus, Sejun was recognized for his farming skills by three gods: Leah, Hamer, and now Patrick.
[You have met the conditions to unlock Tower Farmer S rank.]
[Your rank as a Tower Farmer (A) has increased.]
[You have become an S-rank Tower Farmer.]
He finally became an S-class Tower Farmer.
[As your job rank increases, one job trait is added.]
[Nearby crops will now absorb part of the damage you receive.]
The crops will take some of the damage for me!
Sejun, whose life had always been hanging by a thread whenever strong enemies appeared, cheered at the new job trait.
Additionally, as his job traits were enhanced, all stats that increased when he created new crop varieties went up from 10 to 20, and the percentage of stats borrowed from subordinate Tower Farmers increased from 0.3% to 0.5%.
Thanks to this, Sejun was able to borrow an additional 0.2% of the stats from the five Tower Farmers under his command, raising his total stats by around 2000.
[As a reward for completing the quest, Level 101 is unlocked.]
[As a reward for completing the quest, all job skills have increased by 1 level.]
[As a reward for completing the quest, you have acquired the job skill – Crop Miniaturization Lv. 1.]
Quest completion messages appeared, making Sejun even happier.
-Is that enough? Will you let me go now?
Patrick, who had been watching Sejun from afar, looked at the roots binding him and spoke.
[Yes! Patrick~nim, thank you for acknowledging my master’s farming skills!]
Flamie expressed gratitude to Patrick while unbinding the roots that were tied around him.
-I see… but Flamie, did you really have to do it this way?”
Patrick asked in a slightly disappointed voice, noticing Flamie’s sudden polite attitude.
Patrick had been freed from his seal when the stone broke due to the attacks from Iona and Cuengi.
Even without this, he had intended to acknowledge Sejun’s farming skills as a way of repaying the great help Sejun had provided him.
Of course, if Sejun’s farming skills had been utterly terrible, Patrick might have hesitated a bit, but that wasn’t the case. No, they were excellent. They were good enough to acknowledge without any conditions.
And then there was Flamie, who had helped him after he was freed from the seal.
When the seal was broken, the surrounding area was filled with the power of corruption, trapping Patrick so he couldn’t escape.
[Yap! Hold on with this flame! My master will come to save you!]
A small root of Flamie sprouted from the ground and lent him a purifying flame that could burn away the power of corruption.
So, after the battle ended, Patrick had intended to inform Flamie of the location of land rich with the power of the earth, but,
[More than that, please acknowledge my master’s farming skills!]
Suddenly, Flamie wrapped tightly around him, both threatening and pleading for him to recognize Sejun’s farming skills.
I was going to do that anyway. After all the help I received from those two…
Patrick had planned to not only recognize Sejun’s farming skills but also give him additional rewards before leaving.
Flamie responded decisively, as if there was no other way.
The minds of gods are fickle!
Because of Hamer, the God of Farming, Flamie had little trust in the gods.
→ Reduces the size of crops by 20%.
→ The crops will retain their original abilities even if their size is reduced.
Lately, Sejun had been struggling to eat more crops to get stronger because his stomach would get too full…
Sejun spoke after checking the skill.
After checking out his newly acquired job skill,
“Ah! Theo~nim, it’s Magin!”
Uren, who was gathering lightning-struck wood and thunderstones nearby, discovered Magin and Evis buried in the ground with only their faces exposed.
Flamie had protected Magin from Delia’s power to ensure Theo would collect his money.
“Puhuhut. So, how much do we need to collect, meow?”
“Uhuhuhu. 33 trillion Tower Coins.”
Uren responded after adding up the debts from Evis, Madaf, and Nellie.
“Puhuhut. Great, meow!”
The money I can give to Chairman Park has increased, meow!
Theo, grinning widely, hit the back of Magin and Evis’s heads to confirm they were unconscious, while grinning broadly,
Afterward, Theo and Uren pulled Magin and Evis out of the ground and began to shake them down for money.
“Guys, we’re heading home, so get back into the storage.”
Meanwhile, Sejun ordered the Destruction Devourers back into the Void Storage.
However, unlike when they arrived, the number of Destruction Devourers had increased significantly.
Only 30 million had entered, and yet there wasn’t enough room left in the storage.
So, he had no choice but to leave 70 million behind to be picked up later.
The Destruction Devourers made crying noises when he tried to leave them behind.
[Guys, don’t worry! Who’s your leader?]
[That’s right! It’s me, the Great Blackie! Your leader won’t abandon you!]
Blackie reassured his subordinates.
Sejun fell into deep thought as he watched Blackie and the Destruction Devourers.
Originally, he planned to use the Return Magic with the absolute coordinates to go straight back to the Black Tower, but now he had a reason to come back.
“I’ll just make a quick stop!”
He decided to quickly register the waypoint on the 99th floor of the Golden Tower and then leave.
Once Sejun finished his preparations, he moved to the 99th floor of the Golden Tower, swiftly found the waypoint, and registered it.
[You have achieved the feat of clearing the Golden Tower, following the Black Tower, White Tower, and Green Tower.]
[As an achievement reward, you have obtained the title: The One Who Reached the Summit of Four Towers.]
“Let’s quickly get out of here!”
He quickly returned to the 99th floor of the Black Tower.
And so, Sejun returned to his farm.
“But why did I run away this quickly?”
