Chapter 467: Chapter 467
Bayon, the tyrant of the 87th floor of the Red Tower.
In that place, Bayon’s actions were law, and his words were truth.
If he liked something, he took it. If he didn’t like it, he hit it. He collected taxes from nearby villages and made them offer tribute.
Although Bayon was arrogant and conceited, he knew his limits.
Whenever a new presence appeared, Bayon would first observe whether they were stronger or weaker than him, without provoking them.
If they were strong, he would grovel and offer tributes to send them elsewhere. If they were weak, he would trample them immediately.
He was a typical case of being strong against the weak and weak against the strong—a classic weak-strong, strong-weak style.
That was Bayon’s survival strategy.
Eomdol stabbed Violet in the chest and pulled out the Core Fragment, throwing it to the Destruction Devourers.
The Destruction Devourers swarmed around the core, which was filled with the energy of destruction.
– What?! Hyung, why did you… to me?!
As Violet’s core disappeared, he shrank in size, staring at Eomdol with a betrayed expression.
[Hehe. Welcome, Violet!]
Blackie appeared, welcoming Violet with a mischievous grin.
“Here, eat this and stop crying.”
“Sniff! It’s so delicious!”
While Sejun comforted the crying Bayon and his subordinates by grilling samgyeopsal,
[Hehe. Butler! I exorcised another one and brought it here!]
Blackie confidently strutted into the kitchen, carrying a humanoid purple crystal of similar size and shape to Eomdori on its back.
[This is Violet, the Crystal Giant of Destruction and the 11th seat of the Apostle of Destruction!]
Since Sejun had already discovered that Eomdol, Ggomi, and Kkabi were Apostles of Destruction, Blackie proudly introduced Violet.
Violet bowed at a 90-degree angle to Sejun.
Honestly, Violet wasn’t happy about greeting a human .
But he couldn’t be disrespectful toward the butler of the great Blackie-nim, formerly known as Fenrir, the god-hunting noble wolf.
As soon as he greeted Sejun,
[Heheh. Butler! Give this one a name too!]
Blackie asked Sejun to name Violet.
“But Blackie-nim, I already have a name…”
Violet tried to refuse, but—
Trying to have your cool name?! Not a chance!
With jealousy burning in their eyes, Blackie, Eomdol, and Kkabi glared at Violet, leaving out only Ggomi.
They looked at Sejun with eager, expectant eyes.
And so, Sejun’s naming shop opened again before a day had passed.
‘Boradori.’ ( TL: Boradori (보라돌이) is the Korean name for Tinky Winky from Teletubbies, a British children’s television series.)
The moment he saw Violet’s purple body, this name popped into his mind.
Boradori lacked sincerity and creativity.
The next name that came to mind was…
Since Violet was about the size of a thumb-sized purple crystal, Eombojeong. (TL: Eombojeong (엄보정) is a portmanteau derived from the combination of the words “엄지 크기” (eomji keugi, meaning thumb-sized) and “보라색 수정” (borasaek sujeong, meaning purple crystal). The term Eombojeong is formed by taking ‘Eom’ (엄) from eomji keugi, ‘Bo’ (보) from borasaek, and ‘Jeong’ (정) from sujeong, resulting in 엄보정.)
But this followed the same pattern he used when naming Eomdol, so it was discarded.
Maybe it was because he had already come up with the once-in-a-lifetime masterpiece name Black Torch today, no good ideas were coming to him.
“Show me if you have any special skills.”
So today, instead of focusing on appearance, he decided to base the name on abilities.
“Ahem. I can grow and detonate amethysts.”
Why am I nervous about this?
At Sejun’s request, Violet detached part of his body and demonstrated his ability.
The purple crystal ignited, and purple flames began to burn.
Normally, it would have exploded instantly, but due to Violet’s lack of power, the crystal burned slowly, leading to this phenomenon.
“Th-this isn’t right…”
Violet, flustered, was embarrassed by the unexpected result.
Since it makes purple fire, Boburi? (TL: Combination of 보라색 (borasaek meaning purple) and 불 (bul meaning fire) making it Boburi (보불이))
Since it makes purple flames, Boyeomi? (TL: Combination of 보라색 (borasaek meaning purple) and 화염 (hwayeom meaning flame) making it Boyeomi (보염이))
Since it explodes crystals, Supoki? (TL: Combination of 수정 (sujeong meaning crystal) and 폭발 (pogbal meaning explosion) making it Supoki (수폭이))
Since the crystal burns, Suta? (TL: Combination of 수정 (sujeong meaning crystal) and 타고 있는 (tago issneun meaning burning) making it Suta (수타))
While watching this, Blackie and his subordinates eagerly awaited the odd name Sejun would come up with.
“From now on, your name is Jaki!”
Breaking everyone’s expectations, Sejun said an unexpected name.
While everyone was focused on the burning crystal,
‘Did he say he grows amethysts?!’
Heheh. Growing amethysts, what a unique ability.
Sejun was carefully observing to see if Violet’s body would regenerate.
As amethysts grew back from Violet’s body, regenerating the part that was just detached
A word flashed into his mind like lightning.
Amethyst Growing. Shortened to Jaki! (TL: 자수정 키우기 (Jasujeong Kiugi), meaning ‘Growing Amethyst,’ is shortened to 자키 (Jaki).)
Kihihit. Kking! Kking!
[Heheh. As expected of my butler! You never disappoint me!]
“As expected of Sejun-nim!”
“So, my name is Jaki…”
Except for Violet, who had just received the name, Blackie and his subordinates were satisfied with Sejun’s latest naming masterpiece.
Thus, Violet, the Crystal Giant of Destruction and the 11th seat of the Apostle of Destruction, was given a new name as Jaki, the 4th subordinate of the great Blackie.
“From now on, Jaki, let’s make only 1 kg of amethyst per day. If you want to make other colors, feel free to do that too.”
Along with the heavy responsibility of producing crystals.
“Hmm… The foxes of the Red Tower sure eat well, even while crying.”
Mason, who had been watching the cooking area the whole time, commented.
“Father, the foxes from the Brown Tower are on the move.”
Jeras, who was writing down Mason’s words while watching the movements of foxes from other towers, said.
Mason quickly adjusted his telescope and spotted the Brown Tower foxes sneaking around.
Where are they going?
Mason tracked the direction of their movement.
“Those Brown Tower foxes really don’t have any sense. They’re going to get themselves into big trouble…”
Unlike his concerned voice, he started eating peanuts from his pocket with a bright smile.
To enjoy watching the upcoming fight.
Their target were Piyot and Uren, who were returning to the farm.
And the Minotaur King.
The screams of the Brown Tower foxes echoed, and soon, Piyot and Uren were seen busily stamping the paws of the unconscious Brown Tower foxes onto the slave contracts.
Suddenly, Mason’s view was filled with pink.
As Mason wondered in confusion,
He heard Jeras’ voice.
Theo was blocking the front of Mason’s telescope with his front paw.
“Th- Theo-nim! It’s an honor to see you!”
Mason quickly put down his telescope and stood up to greet Theo.
“Puhuhut. Nice to see you, Chairman Mason-nim, meow!”
Theo, who had followed the pull of his front paw, smiled brightly at Mason.
Puhuhut. As expected, I am the great Chairman Park’s right hand, meow! I’ve thought of a good way to make money, meow!
