Chapter 480: Chapter 480
Black Tower Administrator’s Area.
“Grandpa, you’re here!”
When Aileen ran toward Kaiser and greeted him warmly,
‘As expected, Aileen missed me too!’
Kaiser was moved by Aileen’s warm welcome.
“Grandpa, do you know what a dragon fruit is?”
“Dragon fruit? I don’t really…”
While camouflaged, Sejun secretly harvested the mushrooms growing on the backs of Mushroom Ants, and
“Sejun-nim’s food really seems delicious.”
“Yeah, I’ve never tasted anything that good in my life. I’ll really miss it when we go back.”
“But I wonder what will be for dinner tonight?”
“Sejun-nim is really generous, don’t you think?”
“Totally. And he seems stronger than he looks. Even the Minotaur King is careful around him.”
He overheard praises about himself.
“What are you saying? That Park Sejun guy is such a pushover…”
There were also some guys who badmouthed him occasionally, but
Sejun had Cuengi slap the back of their head with his paw.
After finishing the Camouflage skill test(?) that way, Sejun went to see the Minotaur King.
“Minotaur King, give me special training!”
He wanted to test how well the Durable Spider Silk Camouflage Suit could distribute force.
[Two fingers, 5 minutes. Let’s begin.]
With Sejun’s agreement, the Minotaur King pressed down on him with two fingers.
[Strength has increased by 1.]
[Your body has endured tremendous pressure.]
[Stamina has increased by 1.]
Sejun was able to confirm the performance of the suit by enduring 2 minutes longer than the Minotaur King’s expectation.
Though, thanks to the gear, the training effect was the same as if he had endured for the full 5 minutes.
“Performance fully passed.”
When Sejun finished testing the Durable Spider Silk Camouflage Suit and returned to the farm,
-Kuhahahaha! Sejun, have you been well?!
-Uhhahaha. Sejun! We’ve returned!
-Puhahahaha. Did you miss us?
-Dhahaha. Of course, we’ve been doing well!
The dragons from the Four Dragon Council, who had returned after dealing with Jǫrmungandr, the world-devouring serpent and 3rd seat of the Apostle of Destruction, came to visit Sejun.
“Did everything go well?”
-Kuhahahaha. Of course! Who do you think we are?! We’re the great Dragon race! We handled it smoothly!
All nine dragons of the Dragon Clans had ganged up on Jǫrmungandr for five hours, yet Kaiser boasted proudly as if it was nothing.
Of course, this also meant that Jǫrmungandr’s power, after releasing the 5th-level seal, was truly tremendous.
Releasing the 5th level seal was on a completely different level compared to the previous four seals.
-But where is this delicious smell coming from?
-Yeah, it smells stronger than the golden Samyangju!
-Does that mean it’s even tastier?!
The excited dragon statues began sniffing around, looking for the source of the smell.
Originally, these dragon statues couldn’t smell anything.
But after modifying each other’s statues, they had gained the ability to smell.
“Ah. That smell is probably because of this.”
Sejun proudly pulled out the well-aged golden Samyangju and showed it to the sniffing dragon statues.
He had already planned to sell this Samyangju to the dragons at an even higher price, as he couldn’t drink it himself.
Hehehe. They’ll definitely go crazy, fighting to buy it first.
Sejun imagined the dragons pulling out their money and fighting to buy the Samyangju.
This is bad! The label on the bottle still had Kkabi listed as Delia, the Apostle of Destruction!
He remembered too late that the description on the well-aged golden Samyangju mentioned this.
Actually, our Blackie is an exorcist, so he exorcised the Apostles of Destruction…
As Sejun desperately racked his brain to figure out how to explain it to the furious dragons,
-Kuhahahaha! Sejun, I’ll buy it all!
-What are you talking about?! I’m buying it all!
-No way! I’m buying it all!
-300 billion Tower Coins per bottle!
Completely ignoring Sejun’s worries, the dragons were already pulling out their money, fighting to buy the well-aged golden Samyangju.
Sejun was relieved, but something still felt off.
He quickly pulled out another bottle of well-aged golden Samyangju and checked the description.
He confirmed that all mentions of the Apostle of Destruction had been erased from the bottle’s description.
It was the effect of the small miracle Sejun had unintentionally created.
The miracle Sejun had triggered didn’t just affect Theo’s golden boots, it had happened in various places at the same time.
Thanks to this, Sejun was able to hide the true identity of Blackie’s subordinates from the dragons.
Sejun, who had overcome a great crisis like that.
“Let’s make it a bit more than 300 billion Tower Coins.”
“Puhuhut. That’s right, meow! Dragon-nims, spend more money, meow!”
With Theo’s encouragement, Sejun ended up selling two bottles of well-aged golden Samyangju to each dragon at 500 billion Tower Coins per bottle, earning a total of 4 trillion Tower Coins.
Thanks to this, the dragons handed over all the Tower Coins they had earned from defeating Jǫrmungandr directly to Sejun.
-Kuhahahaha. HHere. Have a drink each! I’m giving you the honor of tasting the alcohol bought by a VVIP!
Kaiser, who had accumulated a total purchase amount of 5 trillion Tower Coins, became a VVIP of the Dragon Market and began teasing Kellion, Ramter, and Tier while sharing one of the bottles he had just bought.
Damn it! To think I have to watch Kaiser flaunt his status like that!
Disgusting! Absolutely disgusting! I need to make money fast!
I feel bad, but it’s so delicious!
Although they were annoyed by Kaiser’s arrogance, the taste was too good for Kellion, Ramter, and Tier to leave.
Black Tower Administrator’s Area.
“Kuhahahaha. So, do you know what this old man got for his 700th birthday?”
Kaiser had been drinking and talking non-stop about his old stories for six hours.
Aileen, her patience completely worn out, called out to Kaiser in a cold voice.
“Kuhuhuhu. Yes, my dear granddaughter, did you call this old man?”
Kaiser, drunk on the joy of becoming a VVIP of the Dragon Market, teasing other dragons, drinking delicious alcohol, and chatting with Aileen, didn’t notice that Aileen’s mood had changed.
“Grandpa, you liar! You don’t know anything about the dragon fruit!!!”
The result was his granddaughter’s fiery outburst.
“Aileen, your grandpa isn’t a liar! Let me tell you what I’ve heard about dragon fruit!”
Of course, being a doting grandfather, Kaiser, desperate not to lose his granddaughter’s affection, began recounting a story he had heard about dragon fruit.
“A long time ago, among the ten dragons first created by the Creator God, when the first white dragon Kel-gas perished in battle… There’s a legend I’ve heard that when the Creator God harvested the dragon fruit he had grown in tears, Kel-gas was revived.”
“Really?! Then how do you grow dragon fruit?!”
“Grow it? Well, since the Creator God was the one who grew it, I wouldn’t know. Ah, but they did say the Creator God was crying while growing it, so maybe it’s the Creator God’s tears?”
