: Hehehe. Guys, we can go to my house!
<strong>TL: Hanguk</strong>
ck Tower’s Administrator Area.
“Kuhihi. In 3 days, I’ll be able to see Mother in person? What should I wear?”
Upon hearing that Earth would be incorporated into the ck Tower, Aileen hurried to her closet and began choosing outfits to wear when meeting Kim Mi-ran.
Even though she couldn’t descend to the 99th floor of the tower, Aileen temporarily forgot that fact in her excitement.
At that moment,
Woong.
The crystal orb vibrated again.
“Kkyeng? Is there something else?”Aileen quickly checked the crystal orb.[Great ck Tower’s Administrator Manual has been added.]
“Manual?”
Aileen swiftly began reading through the manual.
“Since the ck Tower’s 0th floor is temporarily incorporated, there is nond deed. Instead, only administrators, mid-level administrators, and those they permit can enter through the dedicated entrance of the ck Tower’s 1st floor. Kuhihi. Great!”
Excited that she and Sejun could go to Earth, Aileen’s mood changed.
However,
“On the 0th floor, you can only stay in the safe zone created by the ck Tower, and to avoid affecting the 0th floor of the ck Tower, a stay fee must be paid. The stronger your ability, the higher the cost?”
As she read further, Aileen’s expression darkened.
If the total sum of all stats is 100, the cost is 100 million, if 1,000, it’s 10 billion, if 10,000, it’s 100 billion, if 20,000, it’s 150 billion, if 30,000, it’s 300 billion…
Like a progressive tax, the cost increased as the amount of stats increased.
“Kkyeng?! Mine is 10 quadrillion Tower Coins?!” (TL: 10 quadrillions = 10,000 trillions)
Aileen was greatly shocked.
And this was the cost per hour. Due to the premium for being a member of the great dragon race, there was an additional surcharge.
“Kkying…”
How am I supposed to gather that much money?
Feeling depressed as she read the manual, Aileen decided to check on Sejun instead.
She searched for Sejun using the crystal orb.
***
99th floor of the Tower.
Thwack! Thwack!
“Oh. This is good?!”
Sejun eximed while swinging the Giant Sausage Staff at a rock made using his Land Moving Skill.
Even with a light swing, the sturdy rock shattered under the Giant Sausage Staff.
Tremendous destructive power.
Despite its seemingly trivial appearance, the Relic lived up to its name.
Afterpleting the test of the Giant Sausage Staff, Sejun put it down for a moment.
Kkihihit! Kking!
[Heehee. The great ckie will take possession of the Giant Sausage!]
As soon as Sejun put it down, ckie snatched the sausage and ran off.
“Hey! That’s not for you to eat!”
Sejun hurriedly chased after ckie.
In the past, Sejun would deliberately not catch ckie and y along, but ckie had be somewhat stronger after creating a new core.
Udadada.
Kkihihit. Kking!
[Heehee. Herees the swift ckie!]
With his small body, ckie skillfully navigated through the crops, making it hard for Sejun to catch him.
As they continued their game of tag,
“Puhuhut. Tomorrow, I’ll earn ten times more, meow!”
Theo was filling his bag with crops, burning with determination to sweep up all the tower coins from the Green Tower tomorrow.
Kuehehehe.
Sausages for dinner!
Cuengi was diligently harvesting sausages, imagining eating sausage for dinner.
After a while,
“Huff. Huff. You sneaky little thing. Running only through the crops… If that’s how you want to y, I’ve got a way too. Cuengi, can you catch ckie for me?”
Tired from running, Sejun stopped and asked Cuengi for help.
Kueng!
[Got it!]
Cuengi used telekinesis to lift ckie into the air.
Kking! Kking!
[I lost him! Now I can hide and eat!]
Blissfully unaware, ckie joyfully ran towards his secret stash.
But,
Bump.
Kking?!
[What’s this?!]
ckie was bewildered when he suddenly couldn’t run forward anymore.
iling about, he frantically moved his legs, but they didn’t reach the ground.
And then,
Grab.
“Hehehe. Got you, you rascal.”
In the end, while floating in the air, ckie was caught by the scruff of his neck by Sejun and had to spit out the Giant Sausage Staff.
“Kking…”
[My Giant Sausage…]
Slurp. Slurp.
ckie licked around his mouth with a regretful expression.
“Kkihihit. Kking.”
[Heehee. Delicious.]
The taste of the sausage lingering on his tongue quickly lifted ckie’s mood.
“Huh? There are teeth marks?”
Sejun remarked as he saw the teeth marks on the Giant Sausage Staff after taking it back from ckie.
When I bit it, it didn’t even leave a mark, but dragon teeth are different after all.
After retrieving the Giant Sausage Staff, Sejun and Cuengi continued harvesting the remaining sausages.
And once the sausage harvest was finished,
“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, I’m back, meow!”
Theo, having packed all the items to be sold in his bag, walked over with ckie on his back, exuding confidence.
Kkirorong.
He must have picked him up from where he was sprawled out, sleeping on the floor.
When Sejun lifted ckie,
“Kking… Kking…”
[Sleepy… want to sleep…]
“Alright. Got it.”
When Sejun put the whining ckie into his sling bag,
Kkirorong.
He soon fell into a deep sleep.
“Puhuhut. I’m so happy, meow!”
In the meantime, Theo clung tightly to Sejun’s knee, hugging it.
At that moment,
[The Tower Administrator says there is a way for you to go home.]
Aileen spoke to Sejun.
Initially, Aileen had been disheartened that she couldn’t go to Earth with Sejun.
But watching Sejun, she realized how selfish she had been.
Sejun must want to go home too, right?
He always remained cheerful, but asionally, he would stare nkly into space with a lonely expression.
I’ve been too careless…
So, she hurried to inform Sejun that he could go home.
“Huh?! Home?!”
Sejun was startled by Aileen’s words.
“I thought it was difficult for me to go because I’ve be strong?”
[The Tower Administrator says there’s no need to worry.]
[The Tower Administrator says thanks to you, the ck Tower has grown into the Great ck Tower, allowing you to go home safely.]
“Great ck Tower?”
[The Tower Administrator says the ck Tower grew thanks to your efforts.]
[The Tower Administrator says so…]
Aileen exined to Sejun that Earth had been temporarily incorporated as the 0th floor of the ck Tower and shared the contents of the ck Tower manual she had read.
“Oh! So in 3 days, I can really go home?!”
[The Tower Administrator says you just need to find thend deed for the 1st floor of the tower to go home.]
“Hehehe. Guys, we can go to my house!”
Sejun shouted to Theo and Cuengi after hearing Aileen’s exnation.
Then,
“Meow?! Isn’t this our home, meow?”
Kueng?
[We have another house?]
Both were puzzled.
“Ah. Not our house, my parents’ house.”
“Meow?! So we get to meet the Chairman of Chairman Park, meow?!”
Theo asked excitedly at Sejun’s words.
“Huh?”
The Chairman of Chairman Park? Ah, he means my dad.
As Sejun interpreted Theo’s words,
Kueng! Kueng!
[Finally, Cuengi get to meet Cuengi’s Grandma! Grandma will make lots of delicious food!]
Cuengi cheered and ran around in excitement.
“Calm down, you two. We need to find thend deed for the 1st floor of the tower first.”
Sejun calmed them down.
Despite constantly searching, they couldn’t find the location of the 1st floornd deed.
Until now, there was no urgency to leave the tower, so they weren’t desperate to find it, but now they truly needed it.
Using every means possible, they needed to find the 1st floornd deed within three days!
“Let’s go find thend deed!”
Sejun eximed, clenching his fist.
“Good, meow! Let’s depart, meow!”
Kueng!
[Let’s go!]
Theo and Cuengi clung to Sejun, raising their front paws high.
So, the three… no, including ckie and Paespaes, the five of them left the farm and headed to the waypoint.[You have arrived at the 75th floor of the ck Tower.]
…
..
.
[Due to the effect of <Title: Retrogressor>, all stats increase by 24.]
Sejun and his party arrived at the 75th floor of the tower.
A momentter,
“Hand over thend deed for the 1st floor of the tower, meow!”
Theo, who was clinging to Sejun’s leg, brazenly held out his front paw to Mason, the Chairman of the Wandering Merchants Association, demanding thend deed for the 1st floor of the ck Tower.
“What?!”
Mason wanted to say, ‘It’s not like I’m holding onto it for you. How am I supposed to find the 1st floornd deed of the tower all of a sudden?!’
However, he swallowed his words when he met Sejun’s eyes, who was quietly waiting for his response. He feared provoking the wrath of the great ck Dragon by speaking carelessly.
“I-I’m sorry. I’ll do my best to find it. And although it’s not for the 35th floor of the Golden Tower, I have found twond deeds for the Golden Tower.”
Mason hurriedly pulled out twond deeds.[Golden Tower’s 22nd Floor Farm Land Deed]
[Golden Tower’s 53rd Floor Farm Land Deed]
“Thank you.”
Sejun epted thend deeds and then,
Clink.
“This is for thend deeds.”
“You didn’t have to… Thank you.”
Feeling guilty for continually receiving things for free, Sejun opened his Void Storage and handed Mason two fistfuls of gold coins.
“Hmm…”
After Sejun and his party left, Mason appraised the gold coins with a monocle.
Since the great ck Dragon had given them, he thought there must be something special about them.
And then,
“This is?!!!”
Mason was shocked when he saw the small engraving on the gold coin. It was a rare coin, of which only ten thousand existed in the ck Tower.
As expected, the great ck Dragon is truly generous!
Mason carefully disyed the 23 gold coins, each worth over 5 billion Tower Coins, with a satisfied smile.
“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, where to next, meow?”
“First, we’ll go to the 79th floor of the tower, then to the 55th floor.”
Sejun replied to Theo’s question. His n was to visit the Kingdom of Kov and then the Red Ribbon Kingdom.
And then,
“I’m sorry. We’ve been searching hard, but we’ve only foundnd deeds for the Brown Tower.”
Queen Prana of the Kingdom of Kov handed over three Brown Towernd deeds with an apologetic expression. They were for the 3rd, 32nd, and 34th floors of the Brown Tower.
“Thank you. This is payment for thend deeds.”
Sejun again took out some gold from his Void Storage. This time, he took out a palm-sized golden statue in the shape of an eagle.
He just felt drawn to it.
After Sejun left, Prana, thinking the golden statue seemed extraordinary, called an appraiser.
“Your Majesty! This is the golden statue of the first Queen Merma of the Kingdom of Kov, which was stolen by the faceless thief, Loon! It’s an honor for my family that I get to appraise this!”
The appraiser eximed in a voice filled with emotion. The statue was worth nearly 300 billion Tower Coins.
Thus, scattering wealth like that, Sejun arrived at the 55th floor of the tower.
Ppiak!
[Uncle, wee!]
ChuChu!
[Sejun-nim, wee!]
Upon hearing of Sejun’s arrival, ck Rabbit and ChuChu greeted him at the main gate of the White Castle.
“Yeah.”
Since it was evening, Sejun dined and chatted with the ck Rabbit couple.
“So, I’m able to go home now, and I’m looking for the 1st floornd deed of the tower. ck Rabbit, have you heard anything about the location of the 1st floornd deed?”
Ppiak! Ppiak…
[No! We’ve been looking hard too, but…]
ck Rabbit signaled to his subordinates, who brought seven scrolls in front of Sejun.
They werend deeds for the 53rd floor of the Blue Tower, the 23rd, 68th floors of the White Tower, the 25th floor of the Green Tower, and the 22nd, 78th, and 94th floors of the Red Tower.
“Thank you.”
As Sejun thanked them while putting away the receivednd deeds,
Ppiak?!
[Uncle, when you go home, take me with you! I want greet Uncle’s parents too! You’ll take me, right?]
ck Rabbit asked for permission, saying he wanted to go to Earth too.
“Of course…”
Sejun, happy with ck Rabbit’s touching request, started to agree, but then he noticed ck Rabbit flinching as he made eye contact with ChuChu.
Our ck Rabbit is still having a hard time. I’ll definitely take you with me!
As Sejun resolved to bring ck Rabbit to Earth,
Rumble.
A ck hole appeared in the air, and the golden cart that had gone to the Golden Tower returned just after two days, having sold everything.
