TL: Hanguk
There was an unspoken rule in the Black Tower.
That was
[Uren is banned from entering.]
A law prohibiting Uren’s entry. The mont Uren arrived, the country would be thrown into chaos, so banning him was the only option.
However, the ban was not absolute; there were two conditions under which Uren could enter.
One was if he was accompanied by Poyo, the sand fairy who consud misfortune. However, even then, he could only stay for up to three days.
As Uren grew stronger in the wrong way, he developed an ability where, if he stayed in the sa place for more than three days, a great misfortune would occur.
This calamity appeared instantly without any warning, making it impossible for even Poyo to stop. It was, quite literally, a disaster.
When Sejun t Uren at the House of Daemon, Uren had hesitated on the third day, not wanting to leave, which led to Raton descending.
Had Sejun and his companions not been there, it would have been a disaster.
The other condition allowing Uren to enter was if he was with Theo.
Because of this, Uren led a wandering life.
“I miss Theo-nim…”
While walking, Uren suddenly longed for Theo. At least when Theo was around, things always ended well sohow.
On top of that,
Uhehehe. Sejun-nim is by Theo-nim’s side.
If he stayed by Theo’s side, he could enjoy three good als a day.
Piyo!
[I miss Theo~nim too!]
I want to serve Theo~nim up close!
“Mohehe. too!”
The misfortune Theo~nim creates has a unique flavor.
While Uren spoke, Piyot and Poyo responded with entirely different thoughts.
As they continued walking, they arrived at the Red Ribbon Kingdom on the 55th floor of the Black Tower.
“Uren~nim, your entry has been confird. Since Poyo~nim is with you, you must leave within three days.”
“Uhehe. Got it.”
Hearing the gray rabbit conducting the immigration check, Uren grinned happily and entered the city.
And then,
“Uren~nim has entered! From now, dispatch two Pink Pigs!”
The soldiers of the Red Ribbon Kingdom entered a state of ergency.

“We won’t have to worry about seaweed for a while.”
Sejun smiled contentedly as he looked at the pile of seaweed in his Void Storage.
And then,
“Badin, where are we going next?”
“There have been reports of a locust swarm appearing in the west.”
“Then should we have chicken for dinner?”
……
Huh?!
There was no reaction.
Sejun looked around in confusion.
Where’s my Cuengi?
The pro reaction master, Cuengi, was nowhere to be seen.
Realizing Cuengi was missing, Sejun didn’t feel imdiate anxiety. Cuengi wasn’t the type to get into trouble or be beaten up sowhere.
“Cuengi!”
Sejun called out loudly for Cuengi.
Normally, no matter how far away he was, he would respond with a “Kueng!” and co flying over.
……
But there was no response.
Where did he go?!
Sejun’s heart suddenly pounded, and his palms grew sweaty.
He knew logically that Cuengi wasn’t in danger, but he couldn’t help feeling uneasy. What if he was sowhere alone, crying?
Cuengi, Dad’s coming!
“Everyone, spread out and search for Cuengi!”
“Yes!”
Sejun gave orders to Badin and his subordinates.
“Cuengi!”
“Cuengi where are you?!”
“Kyoot. Cuengi where are you?!”
Kking?!
[Cuengi hyung, where are you?!]
Together, they started searching for Cuengi.
As they searched for a long ti,
Is it this way?
Sejun’s instincts pointed in one direction.
“This is?!”
A Cuengi detector?
He thought he only had a Theo detector, but he realized he also had a Cuengi detector.
Hurriedly, Sejun activated the Cuengi detector and ran toward where he sensed Cuengi’s presence.
Ssshhh.
Unlike the other areas, there was a suspicious spot where the ground wasn’t wet despite Sejun’s rain.
And Cuengi’s presence was coming from beneath his feet.
“Vice Chairman Theo!”
“Got it, ow!”
Boom!
Reading Sejun’s thoughts, Theo struck the ground with his front paw, creating a massive hole.
“Let’s go!”
Without a mont’s hesitation, Sejun jumped into the pitch-black hole.
The hole was incredibly deep, and Sejun continued falling down.
The deeper they went, the stronger the heat beca. However, for Sejun, who possessed the , it wasn’t hot at all.
Theo, of course, was perfectly fine as well.
Kkiing…
[Butler, it’s too hot…]
Ppiyak! Ppiyak!
[Great Blackie~nim, I will cool you down! Hup!]
Shari was working hard for the Blackie Family, but
Kkiing…
[Great Blackie is dying from the heat…]
but the surrounding heat was too intense for it to be of much help.
At that mont,
“Puhuhut. Iona, help them out, ow!”
“Kyoot, kyoot, kyoot. Yes. Power of ice, lower the temperature. Cooling.”
Iona cast magic around the Blackie Family, relieving them from the scorching heat.
A short while later.
Light.
The bottom of the hole began to co into view.
“ow!”
As they neared the end of the hole, Theo dug his claws into the wall to slow their fall.
“Arrived!”
Sejun and his companions safely touched the ground.
And then,
“Huh?! It’s Cuengi!”
Kueng!
Boom!
They spotted a giant Cuengi fighting a lava giant inside the molten lava.
Kueng! Kueng!
[Dad, just wait a little! Cuengi is gathering herbs!]
Boom! Crash!
Uooo…
Cuengi, upon confirming Sejun’s arrival, called out to him while fiercely pounding the lava giant.
My Cuengi… You haven’t been gathering herbs like this all along, have you?
The lava giant quickly regenerated its damaged parts with molten lava after each of Cuengi’s attacks.
Oddly enough, Cuengi wasn’t touching the giant’s head, making it difficult to completely subdue.
Why is he doing that?
Sensing sothing unusual, Sejun focused his gaze on the lava giant’s head.
And then,
“Huh? That’s?!”
[Baby Extre Fla Herb]
Why are you there?!
He figured out why Cuengi wasn’t touching the lava giant’s head.
It’s because of .
Cuengi couldn’t bring himself to hit the lava giant’s head because the Baby Extre Fla Herb was growing there, and he didn’t want to damage it.
“Cuengi, use a headlock!”
Kueng?!
[What’s a headlock?!]
“Puhuhut. I know what a headlock is, ow! It’s done like this, ow!”
Kking?! Kking!
[What the-?! Let go, or the Great Blackie will get mad!]
Having experienced many headlocks from Sejun himself, Theo demonstrated by wrapping his front paws around Blackie’s neck.
Kueng!
Following Theo’s lead, Cuengi applied a headlock on the lava giant, successfully restraining it.
And then,
“Puhuhut. Cuengi, keep holding it down, ow!”
Kueng!
[Got it!]
At so point, Theo had already leaped onto the lava giant’s head and,
Thud.
Stamped it.
“Puhuhut. Welco to the company, ow!”
And with that, the lava giant officially joined Sejun Company.
Kuehehehe.
Ppyok.
Cuengi then shrank his body and carefully harvested the Baby Extre Fla Herb growing on the lava giant’s head.
Kueng!
[Dad, here it is!]
“Mm. Thanks. But, Park Cuengi, you know you’re in trouble, right?”
Kueng? Kueng?
[Huh? Cuengi’s in trouble?]
Cuengi tilted his head innocently at Sejun’s words.
After all, he had been gathering herbs for Sejun, so he thought there was no reason to be scolded.
“Of course you’re in trouble. You have to tell if you’re going sowhere. Imagine if Dad disappeared without telling you.”
Hearing this, Cuengi imagined a scenario where his dad disappeared without a word.
Of course, the disappearance of Sunfish Sejun and the disappearance of Apocalypse Beast Cuengi couldn’t really be compared, But,
Kueng… Kueng… Kueng.
[Cuengi would be worried… Cuengi would feel uneasy… Cuengi did wrong.]
The lesson was effective, and Cuengi quickly realized his mistake.
“You won’t do it again, right?”
Kueng! Kueng!
[Cuengi won’t do it again! Next ti, I’ll tell Dad if I’m going sowhere!]
“Good. You must always do that from now on, okay? Dad was really worried.”
Kuehehehe. Kueng!
[Hehehe. Got it!]
Cuengi snuggled into Sejun’s arms as he responded.
“But you still have to be punished.”
Kueng?!
“The punishnt for making worry is… belly raspberry! Brrrrp!”
Sejun blew a raspberry on Cuengi’s belly as punishnt.
Kuehehehe.
Cuengi burst into uncontrollable laughter.
Hehe. If I hide here, Butler will worry about , right?
Wanting to receive a belly raspberry too, Blackie put his head in the wall and hid.
anwhile,
“Puhuhut. By the way, what’s your na newbie, ow?”
Theo asked for the new full-ti employee’s na.
Uwooo…
[I don’t have one…]
The lava giant scratched his head at Theo’s question.
“Puhuhut. Don’t worry, ow! Our great hybrid Chairman Park is excellent at naming! Chairman Park, this guy doesn’t have a na, ow! Give him one, ow!”
Theo quickly called for Sejun.
“Hehehe. Oh, really?”
Huhu. Naming is my specialty.
Du-dung!
Sejun Naming Shop is open!
As the Sejun Naming Shop opened after a long ti
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe! Butler is naming!]
Dadada.
Unable to hold back, Blackie, who had been hiding his head the wall, dashed over with eager eyes, excitedly watching Sejun’s naming performance.
And then,
“Yongboon. You’re Yongboon from now on.”
Sejun nad the lava giant.
The na ca from combining lava and the fact that the giant had served as a flower pot for the Baby Extre Fla Herb. [TL: 용분 (Yongboon) = 용 from 용암 aning lava 분 aning flower pot]
Kihihit. Kking! Kking!
[Hehe! As expected of Butler! His na is Yongboon!]
“If it’s Yongboon… Pffft… that ans ‘Dragon Poop’!” (TL: Since 용 (yong) ans Dragon in english where as the second part 분 (boon) also ans Dung/Poop in english)
Kkiruk!
Sharalang!
…
…
The Blackie Family completely misinterpreted Sejun’s intention, laughing and celebrating what they believed to be an all-ti great na.
Uwooo?
[Yongboon?]
The lava giant repeated his new na to himself.
At that mont,
[The effect of Talent: Nar has been activated.]
[The na ‘Yongboon’ has been imbued with a special effect.]
[All stats have increased by 1000.]
[ has been strengthened.]
[Talent: Hot Flower Pot has blood.]
Due to the effect of the Nar talent, the na Yongboon received special enhancents.
The Hot Flower Pot talent allowed him to cultivate elixirs infused with the power of fire.
With Sejun’s naming completed,
“Puhuhut. Yongboon, give your blood, ow!”
Theo demanded blood from Yongboon.
So far, Sejun had consud bronze giant’s blood, silver giant’s blood, and Landorus, earth giant’s lava bloodstone.
Puhuhut. Chairman Park hasn’t had lava giant’s blood yet, ow!
Uwooo.
[Here you go.]
At Theo’s words, Yongboon cut the tip of his finger and squeezed out a few drops of blood.
Bubble bubble.
The lava giant’s blood boiled intensely.
I’m supposed to drink this?!
Sejun found it utterly unappetizing.
Still, he cautiously brought his fingertip to the blood.
Then,
Whoosh.
“Oh. That feels nice and cool.”
A cooling sensation spread from his fingertips.
The power of fire optimized Sejun’s fingers to their best possible state thanks to his .
Encouraged, Sejun boldly put Yongboon’s blood into his mouth.
But,
“Uugh!”
He had forgotten. Giant blood tastes disgustingly bad.
For so reason, it even had a hint of poop flavor.
“Chairman Park, you can’t spit it out, ow!”
Before Sejun could spit it out, Theo quickly used his front paw to cover Sejun’s mouth.
Gulp.
Sejun barely managed to swallow Yongboon’s blood.
And then,
[You have consud the blood of the Lava Giant, Yongboon.]
[All stats have increased by 3,000.]
[All stat potential has increased by 5%.]
[Talent: Kneading has blood.]
The painful price he paid was imdiately reflected in the system ssage.
Kneading?
Sejun quickly checked the details of the talent.
[Talent: Kneading]
→ You can knead stone with your heated hands to shape it as desired. (Your hands only beco hot when touching stone.)
“The description isn’t in overly polite language?”
This system really lacks consistency.
Originally, if you dislike soone, everything they do is dislikable.
After cursing the system,
“Iona, lift us up.”
“Kyoot, kyoot, kyoot. Yes! Power of wind, lift us upward. Levitation.”
With Iona’s help, they ascended back to the surface.
Yongboon also ca up with them, but…
Ssssshhh.
He was lting all the sand.
“Yongboon, lower your temperature a bit. You’re lting everything.”
Uwooo…
Yongboon looked troubled at Sejun’s words. Telling a lava giant to lower its temperature?
That was absurd.
But nothing is impossible.
“Blackie, go in.”
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe! Butler, leave it to Great Blackie!]
Thunk.
With a confident expression, Blackie headbutted Yongboon’s body.
And gradually, Yongboon’s body temperature started to decrease.
At that mont,
“Huh?!”
Where’s this smoke coming from?
Sejun noticed gray smoke rising in the air.
He followed it to its source and saw,
Fwoosh.
The fur on Blackie’s forehead was on fire.
It must have caught fire during the headbutt earlier.
Sejun quickly put out the flas, But,
“Oh no. It’s all burnt.”
A large bald spot had already ford on Blackie’s forehead.
“Puhuhub. What…should we do?”
2a09:bac1:4080:10::119:17
Struggling to hold back his laughter, Sejun pondered how to cover up Blackie’s bald spot.
