Chapter 534: Chapter 534

The Black Dragon’s territory.

“Kuhahaha. Now, let’s try the Electrified Golden Kiwi Wine this time.”

At Kaiser’s words, the other clan leaders began pouring kiwi wine into their cups.

They were tasting each of the nine attribute-infused wines that Sejun had made, one by one.

When all their glasses were filled, Kaiser raised his cup.

This would cause battle aura to become stronger, leading to severe muscle pain due to his Muscle Strengthening Technique. That’s why massages from Theo and Cuengi were absolutely necessary.

Today, Sejun planned to eat a lot, so even their massages might not be enough to overcome the muscle pain.

The Blackie Family fell asleep immediately after dinner.

They absorbed and dispersed 90% of Sejun’s rapidly increasing influence that started growing when he became interested in Omid, and

[Your soul becomes greatly fulfilled from the high praise of numerous dignified beings.]

[Mental Strength increases by 100.]

“Oh, my Mental Strength is rising fast. Hehehe.”

Although they were absorbing 90% of the mental strength being poured into Sejun from the dragons’ praise to prevent overload

“Eat, sleep, and play—what an easy life.”

But to him, the Blackie Family just looked like a bunch of freeloaders.

Despite his grumpy tone, Sejun carefully placed the Blackie family in his sling bag with care and picked up his spoon.

The menu? Soy Sauce Butter Egg Rice.

It was a dish that allowed him to eat a lot without getting sick of it.

As Sejun began eating,

“Puhuhut. Just trust in me, Great Hybrid Chairman Park, meow!”

[Dad, you don’t need to worry! Cuengi will make sure Dad doesn’t feel pain!]

Theo and Cuengi worked hard to massage Sejun as he ate.

When Sejun had eaten about five bowls of rice,

[The Rice as Medicine effect is activated.]

[Your total stats randomly increase by 150 across Strength, Stamina, Agility, and Magic Power.]

[Strength increased by 20, Stamina by 70, Agility by 50, and Magic Power by 10.]

[Agility, Stamina, and Magic Power stats have reached their potential limits.]

The notifications appeared. Before he knew it, even his Agility stat had reached its full potential.

The muscle pain grew worse, reaching a point where even Theo and Cuengi’s massages could no longer alleviate it.

“Meow?! Chairman Park, are you okay, meow?!”

[Dad, are you okay?!]

Sejun reassured the two, calming them down, and resumed eating.

Mother-in-law, please wait just a little longer. Son-in-Law Park is coming to save you!

It was unnecessarily dramatic for just eating rice, but Sejun was really in too much pain.

His overflowing battle aura tore through his muscles continuously, and the more he ate, the stronger that energy became.

After finishing about eight bowls of rice,

Every swallow became painful as it stimulated his throat muscles. Even his jaw and facial muscles hurt with every chew.

Even so, Sejun didn’t give up and kept eating.

He burned himself out.

After eating 10 bowls of rice, returning 800 of his total 1500 stats, Sejun succumbed to the unbearable muscle pain and passed out.

Theo and Cuengi carried the unconscious Sejun to his bed, continuing to massage him until,

They too fell sound asleep.

(Pip-pip. Good night, everyone.)

Paespaes woke up and greeted the exhausted, sleeping Sejun and the others with a cheerful night greeting.

Of course, since everyone was asleep, no one responded.

Paespaes went to the kitchen.

As he sipped the juice from the fruits Sejun had prepared, he pondered how to find Omid, as Sejun had requested.

(Huh?! Flamie-noona?!)

Flamie called out to Paespaes in a very soft voice. It was so quiet that most wouldn’t have heard it, but Paespaes heard it loud and clear.

-Yes, it’s me. Come this way.

-Yes. Follow my energy and open a dimensional gate.

Finishing his meal quickly,

Paespaes flew swiftly toward the coordinates Flamie had marked.

Before long, Paespaes arrived in another world.

Paespaes hurriedly looked around.

“We must stop the enemy at all costs!”

“We need to buy time!”

“Kill all those who follow the dragons!”

“Now’s our chance to kill the dragon!”

What Paespaes saw and heard was a fierce battle between soldiers defending a massive fortress wall and those attacking it. Both sides fought desperately, with resolute determination.

Although Paespaes found himself in the middle of this chaotic battlefield, his exceptional stealth skills ensured that no one noticed him.

Why are they fighting?

Paespaes, watching the battle between the two factions, asked Flamie,

(Pip-pip. Flamie-noona, where is this place?)

-This is Omid, the place Sejun-nim is searching for.

-Yes. What’s the situation there?

Since the world was closed off and Flamie couldn’t see inside, she asked for an update.

Forcing a view inside the world wasn’t impossible, but doing so could break the world itself. In the worst-case scenario, it might even cause the world to collapse.

(I’m not sure. But the two sides are fighting each other!)

(Pip-pip. Yes! What should I do?)

-For now, head back and…

While Paespaes and Flamie were discussing their plan,

“There’s a rat here.”

A one-eyed giant, who stood at nearly the same height as the fortress wall, swung his iron club toward Paespaes’ location.

The one-eyed giant Moclopse had a special ability—no matter how excellent someone’s stealth was, his eye could see through it.

The area around where Paespaes was hovering was obliterated by the shockwave of the giant’s club.

(Pip-pip! Why are you attacking me?!)

Enraged, Paespaes flew straight toward Moclopse.

Using his new skill Sejun had named for him, Paespaes spun his body rapidly and launched himself headfirst in a powerful tackle.

A massive hole appeared in Moclopse’s upper torso, and the one-eyed giant collapsed on the spot.
