TL: Hanguk
The task of naming the wizard tower only hurt Sejun.
Then,
[The Tower Administrator is furious that soone dares to disrespect her tower farr.]
Aileen ca to Sejun’s defense.
[The Tower Administrator admits that the tower farr of the Black Tower, Park Sejun, is weak to the point where his death anywhere, anyti wouldn’t be surprising, but she praises him for being better at farming than anyone else.]
“Aileen…”
Sejun wished she had just praised him without ntioning the earlier part…
As Sejun’s self-esteem began to plumt,
[The Tower Administrator declares that she will na the wizard tower ‘Park-Ai Wizard Tower’.]
As soon as Sejun heard it, he understood. He knew Aileen’s naming style.
‘It combines ‘Park’ from ‘Park Sejun’ and ‘Ai’ from ‘Aileen’.’
However,
“Kyoot? Park-Ai Wizard Tower?”
Iona, not understanding where the na ca from, tilted her head. The pronunciation was similar to ‘Park-ae’ ( TL: charity), which could be confusing to others.
[The Tower Administrator allows the use of the descriptor ‘black’ for the wizard tower.]
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot! Thank you! Great Black Dragon Aileen!”
Without a second thought, Iona accepted Aileen’s proposal.
Using the descriptor ‘black’ in the Black Tower was of great significance. Only those who had permission from the black dragon could use the word ‘black’.
Of course, one could use it secretly, but the consequences were not sothing one could handle alone.
Dragons never forgave the races that used the term ‘black’ without their permission. Not only the individual involved but the entire race had to pay the price.
And that price was extinction. It was a great honor to use a term of such weight for the na of the wizard tower.
[The Tower Administrator announces that the wizard tower built on the 99th floor will be called the Black Park-Ai Wizard Tower.]
Thus, the na of the wizard tower was decided.
Black Park-Ai Wizard Tower.
Later, hunters approached it, thinking it was a charitable tower due to its na, but it turned out to be entirely different from charity, becoming an object of terror to hunters because of its destructive behavior.

“What will you do once we reach Amsterdam port?”
On the deck of a grain transport ship departing from Lagos port in Nigeria, Jonathan asked his colleague.
“What will I do? Head straight to a bar…”
As his colleague answered with excitent,
Boom!
Suddenly, a soft vibration and sound ca from the tank filled with grain.
“What’s that?!”
“It seems… it’s coming from the tank with cocoa?”
“Could sothing be rotting inside?”
Although rare, sotis the tank would expand due to gas produced by rotting grain stored inside.
“Ah… maybe there was sothing wrong when we hurriedly departed from Lagos.”
In Lagos, millions of locusts appeared and attacked people and animals indiscriminately, so their employer ordered the cargo ship to be loaded with grain and depart as quickly as possible.
And they did depart hastily with the loaded grain.
“So we have to clean the tank as soon as we arrive?!”
“Exactly… damn! Instead of drinking, we’ll only be cleaning…”
As the two of them were complaining,
BANG!
With a massive explosion, the lid of the tank was forcibly opened.
And then,
Buzz. Buzz.
Locusts began to pour out.
“What?! Locusts?!”
“Run!”
Jonathan urgently shouted, but they were in the middle of the vast open sea. There was nowhere to run.
The locusts attacked the people inside the ship as if they were hunting. The bodies of the locusts had turned completely yellow.
The Earth Defense Force had driven all the locusts out of Lagos, Nigeria, and were feeling relieved, but the locusts had already infiltrated dozens of grain transport ships.
And without any interference, they rapidly increased their numbers by consuming the grain, evolving into yellow locusts.
Simultaneously, as grain transport ships were heading to various ports worldwide, the number of ships that lost contact quickly increased.

Day 305 of being stranded.
Sejun took out an Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power from the Golden Box of Abundance. The maximum capacity of the Golden Box of Abundance was two, so if it increased to two, one must be removed to increase it again.
[You have obtained 30 seeds of the Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power.]
[Your job experience has increased slightly.]
[Your proficiency in Seed Harvesting Lv. 6 has increased slightly.]
Sejun didn’t eat the obtained elixir-grade cherry tomato but extracted the seeds from inside. It was pointless to eat one or two pieces as he would still be ignored by the animals around him.
Of course, one reason was that he was constantly failing to sow the seeds and consuming them.
“Let it work this ti. Are you ready?”
Sejun stood in front of a pot filled with soil and spoke to Theo and Cuengi.
“Ready, ow!”
Krueng!
[I’m ready!]
Theo and Cuengi began infusing their magic power into the pot.
Sejun had been continually failing to plant the seeds of the Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power. It couldn’t grow unless it was in a place filled with powerful magic power.
So Sejun, who was artificially creating a powerful magic-filled environnt with the help of Theo and Cuengi, attempted to plant the elixir-grade cherry tomato.
However,
[Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power has been planted.]
[The environnt is not strong enough in magic power for the Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power to grow roots.]
[Seed Sowing failed.]
Ssssss.
The seed turned into ashes along with the ssage. It was another failure.
“How much magic power do we even need?!”
Even with Theo and Cuengi’s magic power, it wasn’t enough… Sejun thought he might have to involve Iona next ti.
After failing to plant the elixir-grade cherry tomato,
“I’m so bored…”
Sejun spoke in a bored voice. He couldn’t step out of the house since yesterday.
It was because of the Black Park-Ai Wizard Tower’s completion celebration party. The powerful beings from each floor who received an invitation were coming up to the 99th floor to participate in the party.
And they had to pass through Sejun’s farm in the middle to get to the wizard tower, so Theo and Cuengi, worried about Sejun, prevented him from going outside.
“Chairman Park, let’s just sleep at ho, ow!”
Theo spoke as if to comfort Sejun and lay down on Sejun’s lap, rubbing his back vigorously on Sejun’s knees.
Krueng!
[Big brother is right! It’s dangerous outside!]
Cuengi also agreed with Theo and sat down, sticking his butt to Sejun’s, and ate honey brought from the void storage.
Both seed eager to take advantage of this opportunity for their own benefits.
‘Should I just go out?’
Sejun could leave anyti if he wanted. He is the owner of this place, and all the animals protecting him were strong. Plus, Aileen was on his side.
However,
Thump. Thump.
Seeing the endless line of monsters outside the window, he automatically thought there was no need to go outside. There was no need to deliberately wander in a place filled with strong creatures.
“Ho is indeed the best.”
Sejun lay on the soft shaggy mushroom mattress and looked up at the ceiling. It had been a long ti since he spent all day at ho.
“When I think about it, on my days off on Earth, waking up late in the afternoon and rolling around in bed until evening was the norm…”
He found it strange that he felt stuffy staying at ho like this.
While lying down and lost in thought,
[Seed shop is now open.]
The Seed Shop opened.
[Checking the level of the Seed Shop skill.]
[Seed Shop Lv. 3 confird.]
[Park Sejun’s grade has been upgraded from Ordinary to Extraordinary.]
As the level of the Seed Shop skill increased by 1 as a reward for completing the level 50 job quest, the grade also increased accordingly.
[In the Extraordinary grade, you can select one seed that you’ve previously purchased from the Seed Shop and buy it daily within 10 tower coins.]
[The selected seed will be removed from today’s seed sales list.]
[If you wish to change the selected seed to another, you must pay a certain change fee.]
[Which crop would you like to choose?]
‘There’s a fee, huh.’
[Carrot Seed]
[Strawberry Seed]
[Onion Seed]
[Cheongyang pepper Seed]
…
..
.
While Sejun was thinking, the crops he had bought before appeared.
“I’ll choose later.”
Since there were no crops that needed to be grown urgently, Sejun decided to choose later slowly.
[5 types of seeds to be sold today will be shown randomly.]
[At the current grade, you can buy as many seeds as you want within 50 tower coins.]
When the grade increased, the number of seeds shown randomly increased from 4 to 5, but the amount available for purchase increased tenfold from 5 tower coins to 50 tower coins.
[Sweet Pumpkin Seeds 50 – 6 Tower Coins]
[Peanut Seeds 1000 – 9 Tower Coins]
[Fire Bean Seeds 1 – 10 Tower Coins]
[Waterlon Seeds 10 – 12 Tower Coins]
[Blueberry Seeds 10 – 20 Tower Coins]
‘The prices have gone up again.’
The prices of the seeds had increased by almost 50% since the last ti he saw them.
“Sweet pumpkin, peanuts, fire beans, blueberries.”
Sejun had collected many waterlon seeds from the waterlons the monkeys had given him on the 77th floor of the tower, so he bought all the seeds except the waterlon seeds.
[45 tower coins have been deducted from Park Sejun’s Seed Bank account.]
[450 points have been added to your Seed Shop loyalty points.]
[You now have a total of 601 Seed Shop loyalty points.]
Kaching.
Four small leather pouches filled with seeds fell onto Sejun’s hand.
[Thank you for using the Seed Shop.]
[You can use the Seed Shop Lv. 3 again after 30 days.]
“I should first plant the fire beans in the pots.”
As Sejun was about to plant the fire bean seeds in a pot,
Squeak!
Squeak!
Kkwek!
Sounds of rabbits and mushroom ants guarding sothing were heard from outside.
And then,
“How dare you insignificant creatures block my way?! I am Jashu, the son of Black Leopard, the ruler of the 95th floor. I am the next ruler of the 95th floor! If you don’t want to die, move aside!”
A voice full of arrogance was heard. There are always beings like that, ones who think they’re at the top without realizing there’s always soone above them. It seed that an unwelco guest had arrived at the farm.
“I should go out.”
Even though he was reluctant, he couldn’t just stand by while his family was being threatened.
“There are always people like that, ow!”
Krueng!
[We will teach them a lesson!]
Enraged at the intruder that caused the disturbance, Theo and Cuengi also got up to follow Sejun.
“Guys, let’s wear these before we go out.”
Snap.
“ow?”
Krueng?
Sejun put on the dragon warrior helt for safety and also put them on Theo and Cuengi. Although he could have worn it alone, he felt embarrassed to do so, so he put it on them as well.
And so, Sejun, Theo, and Cuengi went outside.
***
Squeak…
Kkwek…
Rabbits and mushroom ants, intimidated by Jashu’s threats, did not back down. This was Sejun’s farm, a place that took them in when they had nowhere else to go. They were determined to defend it, even if it ant dying.
“These insignificant creatures, really!”
Realizing their determination, Jashu grew angry. His pride was wounded, thinking they dared to challenge him.
“I tried not to shed blood since this is the 99th floor, but kill them!”
“Yes!”
Although the invitation warned not to harm the creatures of the farm, and the Black Minotaurs guarding the entrance to the 99th floor had also warned them not to harm the farm.
However, Jashu thought that the warning did not apply to the insignificant rabbits and mushroom ants roaming around the farm.
At that mont,
“ow!”
Krueng!
Two beings wearing white bone helts appeared and killed the leopards that were about to attack the rabbits and mushroom ants.
“Cuengi, over here, ow!”
Theo precisely dodged the leopards’ attacks and lured them towards Cuengi,
Kruuuueng!
Thud!
Cuengi hit them with his branch.
“Who are you two?!”
Kruuuueng!
Furious, Jashu slamd the ground and shouted.
‘You are dead.’
Sejun grinned as he looked at Jashu.
Of all places, he had slamd on the rock that Cuengi occasionally used for naps. It was a rock that Sejun had carved for Cuengi using Myler’s hoe.
Krueng… Krueng!
[The bed that dad made for Cuengi is broken… Cuengi is angry!]
As Sejun expected, Cuengi looked at the broken rock with sad eyes and swung his branch at the black leopard nad Jashu in a fit of rage.
Bang!
“It’s really dangerous outside the house.”
Sejun comnted, watching Jashu fly away.
