Chapter 438: Chapter 438
A Korean TV program dealing with strange happenings, .
“Who would win in a fight between a cat and a bear? If you asked such a foolish question, everyone would laugh. Obviously, the bear would win. But after watching this video, you’ll change your mind.”
Today, unlike usual, the program covered content from somewhere other than Korea.
Along with the host’s words, the screen showed huge cat and bear footprints found in China and the United States.
“The beings that left these traces are Theo Park and Cuengi Park, the companions of Korean hunter Park Sejun. As you can see, they are a cute cat and a baby bear.”
Next, the screen switched to show CCTV footage of Theo and Cuengi.
“Where are you, Blackie, meow?!”
While Sejun, Theo, and Cuengi were searching for Blackie,
[Sejun~nim, I know where Blackie went!]
Podori shook its branch and spoke to Sejun.
“Really?! Where did Blackie go?”
[He went that way earlier, riding on the Destruction Devourers.]
Podori pointed in the direction Blackie had gone with its branch.
“Oh?! That direction is…”
It was the direction of the merchant passage that go down the tower.
“Don’t tell me Blackie ran away because he was upset about getting mental education?!”
A rebellious Blackie?
No matter what, running away is not okay!
“Guys, let’s go catch Blackie!”
Sejun and his companions, who had just returned to the farm, set out again to bring back the runaway Blackie.
Blackie, held by the scruff of his neck by the Minotaur King, could be seen struggling to break free from the Minotaur King’s grip.
When Sejun called out to Blackie,
Kking?! Kking! Kking!
[Oh?! Butler! I missed you!]
Blackie barked happily when he saw Sejun.
Contrary to the warm welcome Blackie had expected, he found himself surrounded by Theo and Cuengi.
“Blackie, you still haven’t come to your senses, meow! , meow!”
[! You need more disciplining!]
Blackie was in danger of being taken back for more mental education by Theo and Cuengi.
[I’ve become stronger now! I won’t receive mental education! Don’t stop me!]
As Blackie tried to slip between the two by drawing on the power of creation,
“Puhuhut. What are you doing, meow?”
He was easily caught by Theo. With such a small amount of energy of creation, Blackie couldn’t overcome Theo and Cuengi.
In the end, Blackie was dragged away to receive mental education again, and he learned firsthand that strong resistance is met with strong punishment.
While Blackie was receiving mental education,
The Destruction Devourers diligently absorbed the energy of destruction from the Fenrir’s core fragment that Blackie had dropped for their leader’s sake.
They emitted the energy of creation, but,
Blackie’s screams did not stop.
The Destruction Devourers realized that it was difficult to save their leader with their own strength.
Leader, we will quickly increase our numbers!
Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey.
They spat seeds in front of Sejun.
As the seed Sejun planted rapidly grew and a Destruction Devourer emerged,
[Subordinate! Come over here! There’s plenty to eat here!]
Blackie called out while showing the core fragment with both his front paws,
The Destruction Devourer moved towards Blackie at his call.
[Received 100 drops of Growth Elixir as a quest completion reward.]
[As a quest completion reward, Destruction Devourers are designated as Calamity Guardians.]
A message indicating the completion of the quest appeared before Sejun, who had tirelessly planted Destruction Devourer seeds for three days.
Sejun laughed as he looked at the glass bottle in his hand containing 100 drops of Growth Elixir.
But what is a Calamity Guardian?
He looked at the Destruction Devourers, who were cheering for being designated as Calamity Guardians. There didn’t seem to be much of a difference.
Blackie was furious as he saw the message in front of him.
I’m the great Blackie who was once the First Seat of the Apostle of Destruction! How can I be the third?!
He wasn’t pleased with being the third.
Just as he was about to refuse to become the Apostle of Creation,
A message appeared following it.
‘The Noble Wolf Protecting Black Tower’s Tower Farmer Park Sejun?’
That sounds tempting.
[Alright! I’ll do it for my butler!]
Thus, without anyone realizing Blackie become the third Apostle of Creation and,
“Hehehe. Blackie, I’m going ahead first.”
[You have gained 1 million experience points.]
[Your lowest stat, Agility, increases by 10.]
[Your proficiency in Seed Harvesting Lv. 8 increases significantly.]
Sejun swallowed a drop of the Growth Elixir.
Swallowed another drop of the Growth Elixir.
Sejun’s current level was 99.
Upon reaching level 100, Sejun could no longer gain experience points due to the job quest, so he carefully drank the elixir drop by drop.
I can’t afford to waste even a single drop!
After Sejun swallowed five drops of the Growth Elixir,
[All stats increased by 100.]
An additional effect of the Growth Elixir appeared.
Now the gap between me and Blackie has widened even more.
Sejun was pleased that the gap between him and Blackie had grown larger.
Sejun continued to drink the Growth Elixir, and after consuming 80 drops,
[You have gained 1 bonus stat.]
[Strength increased by 10.]
[A quest has been triggered.]
[Job Quest: Receive recognition from Hamer, God of Farming, Patrick, God of Earth, and Leah, God of Abundance, and upgrade the Tower Farmer rank to S.]
Reward: All job skill levels +1, 1 job new skill.
Finally, upon reaching level 100, Sejun’s job quest appeared.
