Chapter 408: Chapter 408
“Morik, did you hear? A new store has opened in the empty building on the outskirts of the shopping street.”
Chiren, the owner of a shield shop, said to Morik, the owner of the sword shop next door.
“Really? Wasn’t that the store that went out of business a few years ago?”
“Yes, they opened a potion shop, but Luca lowered the potion prices by half, so they couldn’t stay in business.”
“So what are they selling this time? If they’re selling items that overlap with ours, we should go and do something about it.”
“No need for that. They’re selling crops.”
At Morik’s words, Luca, the owner of the potion shop, approached and said,
“What? Crops?! Pfft! Can they even pay the taxes selling those?”
The location appeared in the crystal orb.
Why is Sejun at the Green Tower?
“Khing. Don’t tell me he ran away because of my cooking?! Sejun, I’m sorry! Come back!”
Aileen hurriedly tried to contact Sejun.
About 30 minutes after the troll came,
“You bastard! How dare you mess with a member of the Immortal Clan?!”
The squad leader of the Immortal Clan, having received a report that their youngest member had been attacked, appeared with three subordinates.
“Puhuhut. Welcome, meow!”
Of course, they became good prey for Theo the slave hunter.
[You have gained 3 slaves.]
[All stats increase by 0.03 due to the effect of the .]
Sejun’s stats also benefited greatly.
This time, Cuengi moved the trolls to the back of the store in two trips.
“You bastard! How dare you mess with the Immortal Clan!”
101 trolls appeared, disrupting business.
“Guys, suppress them for now.”
Sejun, angry at the trolls for disrupting his business, gave instructions,
“Let’s teach them a lesson, meow!”
The trolls were quickly dealt with.
[Ukta, Immortal Clan’s Mid Boss]
There was something to ask.
“Do you bastards know who’s backing our Immortal Clan…”
“Yeah. Not interested.”
Why are you boasting about connections? I have connections with the dragons.
“But why are you interfering with our business?”
Sejun ignored Ukta’s words and asked what he was curious about.
“What?! That’s because…”
Ukta momentarily lost his words at Sejun’s question.
“It’s because you didn’t pay the rent!”
“So you’re saying I need to pay rent?”
“This is my land, why should I pay a rent?”
“You still have to pay. If you don’t, you won’t be able to survive in the Green Tower.”
“The person backing our Immortal Clan is one of the power players of this Green Tower. We’re just managing below the 50th floor of the tower according to that person’s orders.”
“Power player? What floor is this power player from?”
“From the 93rd floor.”
Ukta answered with a proud expression at Sejun’s question. Why are you so proud?
“What… that’s nothing.”
For Sejun, who mingled daily with those from the 99th floor, it was truly nothing.
“What? How dare you call the 93rd floor nothing…”
Sejun knocked Ukta out, who was getting agitated, by hitting the back of his head…
Oh?! He didn’t pass out?
At Sejun’s call, Cuengi struck Ukta’s head with the staff of justice.
That must hurt. You should have just fainted when I hit you…
As Sejun looked at Ukta, who had passed out after being hit by Cuengi, with pity,
[You have gained one slave.]
[All stats increase by 0.01 due to the effect of the .]
Theo took Ukta’s stamp.
Shortly after, the sky grew dark,
“Kids, good job. Eat dinner and rest.”
Sejun closed the store.
“Sejun nim, here’s today’s earnings.”
The Ururuk tribe brought the money earned from selling crops to Sejun.
There were many customers, but they didn’t make a huge profit.
“Guys, come here. You worked hard today, so I’ll give you some pocket money.”
Compared to what he was earning these days, it was really a small amount, so Sejun gave the money to the Ururuk children who had worked hard on the promotion.
He then added some money to buy a building worth 500 million tower coins in a residential area where the Ururuk tribe could live.
After purchasing the building, on the way back to the store,
“Good job today! See you tomorrow!”
Sejun saw Neta race people leaving the tower.
Could that be the exit of the Green Tower?
Sejun suddenly became curious.
Can I go out through there too?
So he cautiously approached the exit.
[You are not a being protected by the Green Tower.]
[You cannot use the Green Tower’s exit.]
[You need special permission from the Green Tower administrator to leave.]
Messages appeared, and an invisible wall blocked Sejun.
“Special permission from the Green Tower administrator?”
If it’s the Green Tower administrator… Brachio-nim?
I guess I shouldn’t leave then.
Although Sejun was curious about the outside, it wasn’t worth meeting Brachio.
[The Black Tower’s administrator is tearfully saying it’s all her fault and is pleading for you to return quickly.]
Why is Aileen acting like that all of a sudden?
He didn’t know what was going on, but it seemed like he needed to return quickly.
“If I just leave, the Immortal Clan and that so-called power player won’t leave things alone…”
Leaving immediately was concerning because of the Ururuk tribe.
“Vice Chairman Theo, I’ll tell Ophelia to send some subordinates here. Until then, please protect the store and the Ururuk tribe.”
So, he asked Theo, who could come and go using the his bag.
“Meow?! You’re leaving me behind, meow?! I don’t want to, meow! Take me with you, meow!”
Naturally, Theo refused.
But Sejun had a few cheat keys to handle Theo.
“I believe in you, Vice Chairman Theo.”
“Puhuhut. Leave it to me, Vice Chairman Theo, meow!”
Chairman Park said he believes in me, meow!
