Chapter 445: Chapter 445
Black Tower, 99th floor.
As Sejun woke up and opened his eyes,
[Fossil, the God of Fossils, who was sealed in the Earth’s Jewel, is released from the seal.] (TL: Like in the previous cases, the name ‘Fossil’ is in English and ‘God of Fossils’ is in Korean.)
[Fossil, the God of Fossils, repays the favor to the one who released his seal.]
[Fossil, the God of Fossils, buries a fossil he cherished in a 3.3 square meters area of land to repay his benefactor.]
Theo, enraged, jumped off the roof and landed in front of the turtle with a superhero landing pose.
“What is this?! How dare you block the path of the legendary merchant, Golden Land Turtle Turbo?!”
Turbo shouted angrily at Theo, who suddenly blocked his way.
“You’re the one who dared to call the great Chairman Park’s shop shabby, meow! I’ll teach you a lesson, meow!”
As Theo shouted while extending his dragon claws,
“Hmph! You can’t even scratch my shell with those thin claws!”
My shell is the strongest shield and weapon!
Not knowing that Theo’s claws were dragon claws, Turbo confidently removed his shell and wore it like a shield, then charged at Theo.
“Puhuhut. Sign it, meow!”
Seeing his shell torn like a piece of paper by Theo’s dragon claws, Turbo hurriedly stamped the slave contract.
Seed Shop Headquarters.
“Sniff, sniff. It’s really a precious fossil… Why…”
“Fossil, just wait a little longer. It’s because Park Sejun hasn’t discovered the fossil yet.”
“Sniff. When Park Sejun eventually finds my fossil, he will build a temple for me, right?”
“Of course, even Perl…”
Leah comforted Fossil, who had not received a temple from Sejun.
“Leah~nim, thank you. I feel a bit better now.”
“Alright. Now go hang out with others.”
As Fossil went to join the other gods,
“I should pay back some of the divine power today.”
Leah, having excess divine power for the first time, left the Seed Shop Headquarters and went to find Hel, the god of merchants.
Opening the door to Hel’s building,
“Turbo, no! Run away! Theo is a scoundrel!”
She saw Hel screaming.
“No! Even you, Turbo, have fallen into Theo’s evil clutches…”
Something seemed to have gone wrong, as Hel grabbed her head in despair.
I should come back later.
Leah quietly closed the door and left.
“This won’t do. I need to warn the remaining legendary merchants about Theo.”
As Hel decided to issue a Theo alert to the legendary merchants of the tower,
“Hel! Give me back my divine relic!”
A giant man burst through the door opposite the one Leah used and shouted loudly.
It was Thunder, the god of storms, who had pawned his divine relic, the Thunderbolt Staff, at Hel’s pawnshop.
[Cuengi Park has blocked conversations for 3 days.]
Thunder had been blocked for the third time after telling Cuengi to stop being an herbalist.
Hmph. A true warrior’s blood boils at the sight of an excellent weapon.
He planned to show his greatest divine relic, the Thunderbolt Staff, to awaken the warrior’s blood flowing in Cuengi once the block was lifted in three days.
Of course, it was a completely futile effort. Even with the Thunderbolt Staff, Cuengi had no intention of becoming a warrior.
“The Thunderbolt Staff? I don’t have it.”
“What?! Then where is it?!”
Hel couldn’t bring herself to admit that it had been taken away due to her pride.
“Why did you sell my divine relic without permission?!”
“You should have repaid your divine power debt on time. Tell the other war gods that if they don’t repay their divine power debts, I’ll sell all their divine relics too.”
Hel showed a very cold attitude, unlike when she was dealing with Theo. As expected, she wasn’t the God of Merchants for nothing.
After Thunder slammed the door and left,
“Legendary merchants, if you encounter a yellow cat, run away immediately no matter what!”
Hel sent a warning to the legendary merchants who had not yet become Theo’s slaves.
99th floor of the Black Tower.
Sejun, who had spent the morning planting Destruction Devourer seeds, harvested corn in the afternoon.
[Heehee. Guys, follow me!]
“Yes! Follow the great Blackie!”
Blackie, leading Eomdol and the Destruction Devourers, was engrossed in playing leader.
There’s something here!
Blackie’s nose caught a suspicious scent.
‘It’s something good!’
Reacting to the pleasant smell, Blackie’s tail wagged vigorously.
Thwack thwack thwack.
Blackie began digging into the ground with his front paws.
“Hey! Who said you could dig holes in the field!”
Sejun ran over to scold Blackie, who was digging a hole in the middle of the sweet potato field.
Kihihit. Kking! Kking!
[Heehee. Haa! Look at this! I found it!]
Unlike usual, Blackie barked proudly instead of running away.
When Sejun looked down at the hole Blackie had dug,
“Ah, this must be the fossil!”
He saw shining yellow gemstones. They were amber.
One of the many amber pieces caught Sejun’s eye.
→ This amber was formed by the solidification of sap with a plum seed inside it.
→ The preservation state is good, so the plum seed can germinate if planted.
“Fossil~nim, I’ll give you 16.5 square meters.”
Sejun decided to make a 16.5 square meters Fossil Road for Fossil.
After gathering the amber and covering the ground again,
[Heehee. I did well, didn’t I? Don’t I get anything?]
Blackie looked at Sejun with eyes full of expectation.
“Yes, you did well. Here.”
Sejun gave him some dried sweet potato slices.
Blackie ate them happily.
“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, I have returned, meow!”
Now it’s time for teamwork, meow!
