Chapter 615: Chapter 615
Black Tower, 99th floor.
“Alright, let’s do it that way.”
-Good. Here’s the advance payment.
Tier gave Sejun 1 trillion Tower Coins, 10L of dragon blood, 5000 dragon scales, and 1kg of dragon claws as advance payment for helping make the Great Purple Tower.
Other than the money, he didn’t particularly need the rest,
but there was no reason to refuse since Tier was offering.
Since Tier was giving it, he accepted it without hesitation.
For reference, if the Purple Tower successfully grew into the Great Purple Tower, he would receive a success bonus three times the advance payment,
1 welfare point = 1,000 Divine Power.
For hastily made Divine Relics, the reward was quite generous.
Ulrich, taken in by Buko’s sales pitch, sent a message.
[Black Tower, 40F Black Orc King, Ulrich: Thank you.]
[Black Tower, 40F Black Orc King, Ulrich, has sent 8 Sejun Company Welfare Points to Combat Shop Headquarters, God of Axes, Buko.]
The transaction was completed.
Thus, a new, infinitely producible weapon known as welfare points had emerged.
“Vice Chairman Theo, thank you. The gods have been working hard making Divine Relics lately.”
“Puhuhut. That’s because Great Hybrid Chairman Park is amazing, meow!”
“No. It’s because our Vice Chairman Theo is competent.”
“Puhuhut. That’s true, meow! I, Vice Chairman Theo, am very competent, meow!”
“Wow. This cat has zero humility.”
“Puhuhut. What is humility, meow?! I don’t know such a thing, meow! More importantly, Chairman Park, your face is rotting, meow!”
“It is, meow! Rot… Chairman Park, I’m sorry, meow!”
Completely unaware of that fact, the Chairman and Vice Chairman of Sejun Company spent yet another day playfully praising and teasing each other, cherishing these seemingly insignificant but precious moments.
After spending time punishing and enjoying happiness by thoroughly stretching Theo’s cheeks, Sejun let him go, and
Theo rubbed his own cheeks and immediately clung back onto Sejun’s knee.
“Tier~nim, here you go.”
Sejun quietly called Tier over and handed him the 13 Divine Relics.
The reason Sejun quietly called Tier over was that Tier had asked him to keep it a secret from the other dragons.
-Duhahaha. Yes. Now, the requirement of Divine Relics is exceeded.
Tier checked the Great Purple Tower growth conditions using the crystal orb and laughed in satisfaction.
“That means, out of the 8 conditions, 4 are now complete…”
Sejun crossed out ‘Possess 15 Divine Relics’ on the paper with the Great Purple Tower growth conditions.
The answer was always at the site itself.
For the remaining tasks, he decided to head to the Purple Tower and solve them there.
Sejun gathered his group and used waypoint to teleport to the Purple Tower.
As soon as Sejun arrived,
“Sejun~nim, welcome.”
Veronica greeted Sejun enthusiastically, while beside her, a slender female elf greeted him with an expression as if she had just swallowed something bitter.
Unlike Veronica, who was happy to see him, the elf looked as if she had absolutely no desire to be here.
‘Why am I in this place…?’
Just as Sejun suspected, Choba, the Purple Tower’s legendary merchant, was feeling quite wronged.
With the growth of the Great Purple Tower, it was her fate to become this man’s subordinate.
“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, I missed you, meow!”
Theo jumped out of the Void Storage and latched onto Sejun’s face.
Cuengi and Blackie also leaped out and threw themselves at Sejun.
‘Maybe he’s not so bad?’
Seeing how affectionate his companions were with him, Choba felt a little reassured.
“Puhuhut. Legendary Merchant of the Purple Tower, nice to meet you, meow! I am-”
That is, until Theo, while introducing himself, started fondling a stamp with a sinister grin.
As Choba began worrying about her future,
“Veronica, why hasn’t the detoxification rate here surpassed 50%?”
Sejun asked Veronica, thinking this would be the easiest problem to solve.
Veronica began to explain.
After planting the Detoxifying Green Onions Sejun had given them, most of the Purple Tower’s land had been purified of poison.
However, the 66th floor,
That was the problem.
No matter how much detoxification they did, the percentage never exceeded 50%.
And as time passed, the poison spread again, causing the percentage to drop instead.
“We searched every corner of the 66th floor, but we couldn’t find the cause.”
“Is that so? Veronica, do you have the Land Deed for Tower 66th floor?”
Veronica, who had prepared in advance, handed Sejun the 66th-floor land deed.
“Guys, get back inside.”
After making sure his companions entered the Void Storage,
“Alright, I’ll be back soon.”
After saying goodbye to Veronica and Choba, Sejun unfolded the land deed and vanished.
“Will Sejun-nim be alright?”
Choba asked worriedly, her voice filled with concern as she looked at Veronica.
She knew how dangerous the 66th floor was.
“Don’t worry. Theo~nim went with him.”
“Wait, what?! That sinister-looking cat from earlier?”
“Yes. As long as Sejun~nim and Theo~nim are together, there’s nothing they can’t solve.”
Just as Choba was trying to process Veronica’s words,
Sejun had arrived at the 66th floor.
[You are in an invincible state.]
[You do not take damage.]
“…Vice Chairman Theo, green onion!”
Seeing the message, Sejun hurriedly opened the Void Storage.
“Chairman Park, here, meow!”
Waiting right by the entrance, Theo swiftly grabbed a green onion and shoved it into Sejun’s mouth.
You didn’t have to give it to me like that!
Sejun chewed on the green onion while glaring at Theo.
I, Vice Chairman Theo, did nothing wrong, meow…
Theo averted his gaze as if he were innocent,
[Butler! The Great Blackie is dying!]
