Chapter 423: Chapter 423
Black Tower’s Administrator Area.
“Kuhihi. In 3 days, I’ll be able to see Mother in person? What should I wear?”
Upon hearing that Earth would be incorporated into the Black Tower, Aileen hurried to her closet and began choosing outfits to wear when meeting Kim Mi-ran.
Even though she couldn’t descend to the 99th floor of the tower, Aileen temporarily forgot that fact in her excitement.
The crystal orb vibrated again.
“Kkyeng? Is there something else?”
“I thought it was difficult for me to go because I’ve become strong?”
[The Tower Administrator says there’s no need to worry.]
[The Tower Administrator says thanks to you, the Black Tower has grown into the Great Black Tower, allowing you to go home safely.]
[The Tower Administrator says the Black Tower grew thanks to your efforts.]
[The Tower Administrator says so…]
Aileen explained to Sejun that Earth had been temporarily incorporated as the 0th floor of the Black Tower and shared the contents of the Black Tower manual she had read.
“Oh! So in 3 days, I can really go home?!”
[The Tower Administrator says you just need to find the land deed for the 1st floor of the tower to go home.]
“Hehehe. Guys, we can go to my house!”
Sejun shouted to Theo and Cuengi after hearing Aileen’s explanation.
“Meow?! Isn’t this our home, meow?”
[We have another house?]
“Ah. Not our house, my parents’ house.”
“Meow?! So we get to meet the Chairman of Chairman Park, meow?!”
Theo asked excitedly at Sejun’s words.
The Chairman of Chairman Park? Ah, he means my dad.
As Sejun interpreted Theo’s words,
[Finally, Cuengi get to meet Cuengi’s Grandma! Grandma will make lots of delicious food!]
Cuengi cheered and ran around in excitement.
“Calm down, you two. We need to find the land deed for the 1st floor of the tower first.”
Sejun calmed them down.
Despite constantly searching, they couldn’t find the location of the 1st floor land deed.
Until now, there was no urgency to leave the tower, so they weren’t desperate to find it, but now they truly needed it.
Using every means possible, they needed to find the 1st floor land deed within three days!
“Let’s go find the land deed!”
Sejun exclaimed, clenching his fist.
“Good, meow! Let’s depart, meow!”
Theo and Cuengi clung to Sejun, raising their front paws high.
So, the three… no, including Blackie and Paespaes, the five of them left the farm and headed to the waypoint.
[You have arrived at the 75th floor of the Black Tower.] …
[Due to the effect of , all stats increase by 24.]
Sejun and his party arrived at the 75th floor of the tower.
“Hand over the land deed for the 1st floor of the tower, meow!”
Theo, who was clinging to Sejun’s leg, brazenly held out his front paw to Mason, the Chairman of the Wandering Merchants Association, demanding the land deed for the 1st floor of the Black Tower.
Mason wanted to say, ‘It’s not like I’m holding onto it for you. How am I supposed to find the 1st floor land deed of the tower all of a sudden?!’
However, he swallowed his words when he met Sejun’s eyes, who was quietly waiting for his response. He feared provoking the wrath of the great Black Dragon by speaking carelessly.
“I-I’m sorry. I’ll do my best to find it. And although it’s not for the 35th floor of the Golden Tower, I have found two land deeds for the Golden Tower.”
Mason hurriedly pulled out two land deeds.
[Golden Tower’s 22nd Floor Farm Land Deed] [Golden Tower’s 53rd Floor Farm Land Deed]
Sejun accepted the land deeds and then,
“This is for the land deeds.”
“You didn’t have to… Thank you.”
Feeling guilty for continually receiving things for free, Sejun opened his Void Storage and handed Mason two fistfuls of gold coins.
After Sejun and his party left, Mason appraised the gold coins with a monocle.
Since the great Black Dragon had given them, he thought there must be something special about them.
Mason was shocked when he saw the small engraving on the gold coin. It was a rare coin, of which only ten thousand existed in the Black Tower.
As expected, the great Black Dragon is truly generous!
Mason carefully displayed the 23 gold coins, each worth over 5 billion Tower Coins, with a satisfied smile.
“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, where to next, meow?”
“First, we’ll go to the 79th floor of the tower, then to the 55th floor.”
Sejun replied to Theo’s question. His plan was to visit the Kingdom of Kov and then the Red Ribbon Kingdom.
“I’m sorry. We’ve been searching hard, but we’ve only found land deeds for the Brown Tower.”
Queen Prana of the Kingdom of Kov handed over three Brown Tower land deeds with an apologetic expression. They were for the 3rd, 32nd, and 34th floors of the Brown Tower.
“Thank you. This is payment for the land deeds.”
Sejun again took out some gold from his Void Storage. This time, he took out a palm-sized golden statue in the shape of an eagle.
He just felt drawn to it.
After Sejun left, Prana, thinking the golden statue seemed extraordinary, called an appraiser.
“Your Majesty! This is the golden statue of the first Queen Merma of the Kingdom of Kov, which was stolen by the faceless thief, Loon! It’s an honor for my family that I get to appraise this!”
The appraiser exclaimed in a voice filled with emotion. The statue was worth nearly 300 billion Tower Coins.
Thus, scattering wealth like that, Sejun arrived at the 55th floor of the tower.
[Sejun-nim, welcome!]
Upon hearing of Sejun’s arrival, Black Rabbit and ChuChu greeted him at the main gate of the White Castle.
Since it was evening, Sejun dined and chatted with the Black Rabbit couple.
“So, I’m able to go home now, and I’m looking for the 1st floor land deed of the tower. Black Rabbit, have you heard anything about the location of the 1st floor land deed?”
[No! We’ve been looking hard too, but…]
Black Rabbit signaled to his subordinates, who brought seven scrolls in front of Sejun.
They were land deeds for the 53rd floor of the Blue Tower, the 23rd, 68th floors of the White Tower, the 25th floor of the Green Tower, and the 22nd, 78th, and 94th floors of the Red Tower.
As Sejun thanked them while putting away the received land deeds,
[Uncle, when you go home, take me with you! I want greet Uncle’s parents too! You’ll take me, right?]
Black Rabbit asked for permission, saying he wanted to go to Earth too.
Sejun, happy with Black Rabbit’s touching request, started to agree, but then he noticed Black Rabbit flinching as he made eye contact with ChuChu.
Our Black Rabbit is still having a hard time. I’ll definitely take you with me!
As Sejun resolved to bring Black Rabbit to Earth,
