Solo Farming In The Tower-Chapter 61Vol 2. : Welcome to the Kindergarten of Destruction! ()

The Forest of Creation.

The World Tree School and the Dimensional Tree School were bustling with activity due to the birth of fifteen new world trees and one new dimensional tree.

[Hohoho. Welcome, newbies!]

[Heheh. Nice to meet you!]

[We are the Five Elixirs! Your upperclassmen who will be mercilessly training you from now on!]

The Five Elixirs, who took over the task of keeping the new world trees in line after Sausage left for the Dimensional Tree School, greeted the new trees raised by the Children of Destruction: Doll Ginseng, Doll Hasuo, Doll Extreme Ice Herb, Doll Extreme Flame Herb, and Doll Extreme Poison Herb.

[Hello! I’m Sweet Potato, born today!]

[Yeah! Welcome! I am your senior, Sausage! Now begin by taking 100 bottles of nutrient tonic!]

At the Dimensional Tree School, Sausage greeted the new sweet potato tree with overwhelming energy.

Meanwhile—

[Hehe~ I’m so happy. Now that there are more trees to feed tonics to, I might get to go on another vacation with Sejun soon.]

Flamy was excited at the thought of going on another trip with Sejun.

Then—

“Now that we have a new candidate for Creation Tree, you’ll have to work harder, Flamy.”

The Statue of Trials spoke to her.

[Huh? A new candidate for Creation Tree?]

“Yes. Didn’t you know? Grapey has finally become a candidate and is now qualified to take the trials. Hahaha! Two candidates for Creation Tree have been born! What a joyous occasion!”

While the Statue of Trials was rejoicing—

[Grapey, why didn’t you tell me you became a Creation Tree candidate?!]

Flamy stormed over to Grapey, furious that such important news had been kept from her.

Had she known, she would’ve made Grapey take the test a second faster.

“Uh... How could someone like me possibly become a Creation Tree...?”

It was already hard enough. The idea of becoming a Creation Tree? Absolutely not!

Flustered by Flamy’s interrogation, Grapey tried to make excuses—but they were half-hearted and practically screamed that he didn’t want to do it.

[Shut it! Before I burn you to ashes!]

[Y-Yes ma’am...]

Which only made Flamy even angrier.

[Hurry up and start preparing for the first trial!]

Flamy quickly forced Grapey into preparing.

[No! I’m also a candidate for Creation Tree now! You can’t just boss me around!]

Grapey made one final desperate attempt to resist.

Once the trials began, there would be no turning back. He would have to continue under Flamy’s relentless support until he became a Creation Tree.

And if only that was the end...

But it wasn’t.

Grapey knew. Even if he became a Creation Tree, he would never surpass Flamy.

He knew. Even if he passed, it would only mean more work and more nutrient tonics than ever.

Grapey absolutely did not want to live like that.

Fwoooosh.

But the moment Flamy manifested the Primordial Flame capable of burning everything—

[Grapey, do you want to turn into ashes?]

[No ma’am! I must’ve lost my mind for a moment! I’ll take the trial seriously!]

Grapey’s attitude flipped 180 degrees in an instant.

Having been around the daughter of the Primordial God, Flamy had naturally absorbed bits of the Primordial Power and was now capable of wielding the faint Primordial Flame herself.

[Good. Then pass the first three trials in one month.]

[Yes!]

And so Grapey approached the Statue of Trials to take the first test.

“Then let’s begin the first trial. Bring me a Magic Stream Seed within ten days.”

[What?!]

How the hell was he supposed to get that?!

The moment he heard the requirement, Grapey panicked.

Flamy had passed easily thanks to Sejun’s support, but the actual difficulty of the Creation Tree trials was hell-level.

Grapey was the normal one. Flamy was the abnormality.

‘Hohoho. Yes. This is what makes giving trials worthwhile—watching them struggle to solve the problem.’

The Statue of Trials looked on, pleased by Grapey’s panic and the normalization of standards.

But then—

“Huh? What’s this? You already have it. First trial cleared!”

[Me?!]

Grapey was dumbfounded, unsure what just happened—

[Huh?]

Why is this in my roots?

He discovered a red seed tangled in his roots.

[What are you doing? Hurry up and give the Magic Stream Seed.]

Flamy urged him from the side.

She had prepared the seed in advance for a future candidate and quietly tucked it into Grapey’s roots.

If Flamy had Sejun’s support, then Grapey had Flamy’s top-tier assistance.

[Statue of Trials, let’s move on to Grapey’s second test right away.]

Flamy pushed the process forward. Though she’d told Grapey he had a month—

Even two weeks was too long!

“I agree. Then let’s begin the second trial. Raise 1,000 world tr—”

[Grapey, follow me! I already found trees ready to become world trees!]

[Waaah! Flamy, please slow down! You’re tearing my roots!]

Before the statue could even finish explaining the trial, Flamy dragged Grapey away by the roots.

[It’s this tree! Feed it this and raise it into a world tree!]

[Yes!]

With Flamy’s guidance and nutrient tonics, Grapey successfully raised 1,000 world trees in just five days.

And then immediately began the third trial to become a Creation Tree.

The task: raise one dimensional tree.

[Five Elixirs! Start drinking tonics. Until when? Until you become a dimensional tree.]

[Grapey, why are you doing this to us?!]

[Did we do something wrong?!]

[Just drink it! If you don’t, I’m doomed!]

The Five Elixirs, the senior team at World Tree School, drank the special nutrient tonics from Flamy under Grapey’s order—and in seven days, all five of them became dimensional trees.

<Earth>

“Everyone, lunchtime!”

Just as Sejun finished cooking and was calling the group and the Destruction Kids—

[The Green Tower has been established on Earth.]

A message appeared before Sejun.

‘White Tower, Red Tower, Purple Tower, and now Green Tower. That makes five towers now on Earth.’

And Earth’s level was now 6.

At Level 6, Earth could support up to eight towers—so there was still plenty of room.

And with the arrival of five towers on Earth—

[For the convenience of tower entrants, the same floors of the Black, White, Red, Purple, and Green Towers are now connected.]

A message appeared before the Hunters and Sejun, announcing that corresponding floors across the towers were now linked.

[You have achieved the great feat of establishing five towers on <Earth>.]

[You /N_o_v_e_l_i_g_h_t/ have acquired the title: Challenger of the Five Tower Summits.]

[However, since you already possess the higher title: Conqueror of All Tower Summits, your reward will be adjusted.]

[All stats increased by 30.]

The reward was especially generous. Perhaps because the great dragons followed Sejun to Earth, this achievement was also attributed to him.

“Will they be okay...?”

Sejun felt worried about the Earth-based Hunters.

Each tower differed greatly in environment and resident disposition compared to the Black Tower.

Just then—

Grrrgghhh.

Sejun’s stomach growled loudly.

Queng? Queng!

[Dad, why aren’t you eating? Here, eat this!]

Queng shoved a piece of sticky rice cake dipped in honey into Sejun’s mouth.

“Wow. It tastes so good when Queng feeds me!”

Kkuhehehe. Queng!

[Hehe~ Then Queng will give you more!]

Queng eagerly dipped another rice cake in honey and fed it to Sejun again.

“Puhuhu~ The mighty hybrid Chairman Park shall also eat Vice-Chairman Theo’s grilled fish, nya!”

Kihihit! Ngh!

[Servant! Eat the ultra-flavored roasted sweet potato chips of the mighty Kkamang!]

“Heehee~ Daddy, Taecho will give you corn too!”

The others followed, stuffing food into Sejun’s mouth.

Well, they’ll manage somehow.

As he chewed the food that kept entering his mouth nonstop, Sejun let go of his worries about the Hunters.

And then—

“Hey! Park Kkamang! Why are you feeding me something you already chewed?!”

Ngh!

[The mighty Kkamang only chewed it twice!]

“Still! Why would you feed me chewed food?!”

As always, Sejun scolded Kkamang.

***

Black Tower, 1st Floor.

“Huh?! What’s this?”

The Hunters discovered a transparent membrane that hadn’t been there before. Beyond it, they saw buildings and residents they had never seen before.

“Can we go through it?”

They cautiously crossed the barrier—

[You have arrived on the 1st Floor of the White Tower.]

They had transferred to the White Tower.

“Whoa! We’re in a different tower!”

Now able to travel between towers, the Hunters rejoiced.

News quickly spread back to Earth.

“This zone’s ours now!”

Several factions that had failed to seize the Black Tower’s shopping district due to Queng Faction’s youngest, Black Bear No. 999, set their sights on shopping districts in other towers.

Of course, those weren’t easy targets either. Sejun’s crops had improved the residents across all towers to an exceptional degree.

Every Hunter who tried failed.

Fortunately, none lost their lives.

[White Tower 1F Shopping District Manager, White Tiger Butterfly: I see people who look like Sejun here. Are they family?]

[Red Tower 1F Manager, Redbear Kkotsooni: I see them too. Someone please confirm. They keep saying they’ll take over the district while hitting me. I’m not hurt, but they look tired hitting me.]

[Black Tower 1F Manager, Queng Faction’s Youngest Black Bear No. 999: Not Sejun’s family. Just beat them enough to chase them off. Oh—and since they’re the same species as Sejun, don’t kill them. But you’ll need serious power control.]

Thanks to Black Bear No. 999’s intel shared via the official network, the tower residents were prepared.

And—

[Green Tower 1F Blacksmith, 99F Boss Agni of Fear: Kids, you heard it, right? Just don’t kill them.]

[Green Tower 1F Guard, 98F Boss Hellhound Cerberus: Understood. But I’m not confident I can control my strength...]

[Green Tower 1F Healer, 97F Boss Saint of Destruction, Egelle: Cerberus, if any limbs come off, I can heal them cleanly. Don’t worry.]

The Hunters who challenged the Green Tower’s shopping district came back completely intact—but they never tried again.

As all five towers connected and incidents unfolded—

“So actually...”

Sejun found himself in a dire situation.

“Gasp! Humans are singing the glorious Hybrid Chairman Park’s song without permission, nya! Unforgivable! We must charge royalties and collect stamps, nya!”

Queng! Queng! Queng!

[Big bro is right! They didn’t ask Dad for permission to sing his song! Queng is mad! Queng will punish them!]

Grrrr. Ngh! Ngh!

[Grrrr... Right! The mighty Kkamang will bite them too!]

While watching TV, Sejun saw a singer performing a song he always claimed to have written—and the group exploded in righteous rage.

“Guys, calm down. I gave them permission to use it.”

Sejun tried to excuse himself—

Pop. Pop.

The sound of Queng’s thunder-stick rattled Sejun’s conscience.

“...Sorry, guys. Actually... it’s not my song...”

Sejun confessed.

And then—

“Puhuhu~ So that’s how it is, nya? Then let’s write our own and charge people properly, nya!”

Kkuhehehe. Queng!

[Hehe~ Sounds fun!]

Kihihit. Ngh!

[Heehee~ Servant! Leave the jingle performance to me, Kkobang!]

Ding-a-ling!

[I’ll do my best!]

The group rallied behind Sejun to make a new song—

“Guys...”

Sejun was moved.

Kihihit. Ngh! Ngh!

[Heehee~ I kinda figured it wasn’t really yours! The kids sing it better than you anyway!]

“You little—!”

Just like that, Kkamang ruined the mood.

And then—

Ngh...

[Let’s talk this out, servant...]

As punishment for ruining Sejun’s emotional moment, Kkamang got his cheeks stretched and dangled in midair.
