Chapter 263: Heh. Resolver Park Sejun Steps In
TL: Hanguk
Black Tower Administrator Area.
"Is this how it's supposed to be?"
Aileen was squatting down, picking up carrot flowers one by one to make a bouquet. These were the carrot flowers that had fluttered down from the 55th floor of the tower, gathered by Aileen.
But
Sssrss
The carrot flowers wilted quickly. They were too frail to withstand Aileen's overwhelming energy.
Ssssss.
Eventually, the carrot flowers couldn't resist Aileen's energy and crumbled beyond wilting.
"Khek! This is all because of that stupid poop cat Theo!"
Aileen, looking at the powdered carrot flowers, vented her annoyance at Theo.
A little while ago, when ChuChu threw the bouquet
"Kheeheehee. If Sejun catches this, he’ll propose to me, right?"
Aileen was watching the scene through a crystal ball, preparing herself.
And then, using the newly unlocked Administrator ability <Interference> from the growth of the Dragonheart, she subtly sent the bouquet towards Sejun without being noticeable.
With her current magic power, she could only exert a little force, but with intense concentration, she accurately calculated the trajectory, and thanks to that, the bouquet moved exactly as Aileen had planned.
"Kheeheehee. Done!"
Aileen was delighted to see the bouquet flying precisely towards Sejun.
However, there was an unexpected twist. Theo, who had angrily swatted away the bouquet that Aileen had painstakingly sent to Sejun.
Just when Aileen was resenting Theo
"Huh?"
A contract appeared in front of Aileen. It was the contract sent by Theo to make Mimyr his subordinate.
"From now on, I won't help that stupid dumb cat Theo!"
Annoyed with Theo, Aileen refused to stamp the contract.
***
"Yum! Yum! Yum! So delicious,baa!"
Slurp, slurp.
Mimyr, constantly exclaiming in excitement, was slurping up the noodle soup. She was regretting why she hadn't eaten noodle dishes until now.
"Today, I will eat all the noodle dishes I’ve missed out on, baa!"
Just as Mimyr was reaching out for her fourth bowl of noodles with this determination
Krueng!
[Stop eating now!]
Cuengi used telekinesis to float the new bowl of noodles in front of Mimyr into the air.
Whoosh.
As a result, Mimyr's chopsticks cut through the air.
"Yah?! Why, baa?! I can eat more, baa!"
Realizing too late that Cuengi had taken her noodles, Mimyr glared at him and shouted in a sharp voice. Why are you doing this when you used to force-feed me before?!!!
For Mimyr, who had just entered the world of noodles, it was too harsh a treatment.
But
Gulp.
Krueng! Krueng!
[No! The rest are Cuengi's!]
Cuengi, holding Mimyr by the scruff, spoke very decisively. The noodle master Cuengi's hospitality was limited to just three bowls of noodles.
Normally, Cuengi would have allowed Mimyr to eat up to five bowls... but because of the pink pig Uren, that wasn't possible.
Slurp, slurp.
Even while guiding Mimyr into the world of noodles, Uren was continuously slurping up his noodle soup.
“Meheh...,”
Thus, Mimyr, caught by the scruff by Cuengi, replied in a sullen voice, forced to end her introduction to being a noodle aficionado.
And then
Slurp.
Cuengi started earnestly eating the noodles.
Gulp.
Mimyr watched Cuengi swallowing saliva.
At that moment
"Puhuhut. Mimyr, do you want to eat rice noodle in the future too, meow?"
Theo sneakily approached Mimyr and started to pitch the rice noodles.
"Meheh! Of course! I want to eat it every day, baa!"
Mimyr vigorously nodded in response to Theo's question.
"Puhuhut. Then how much can you give me for it, meow?"
Our kids are doing great! Sejun smiled contentedly at the fantastic combination of tasting manager Cuengi and sales manager Theo.
Moreover, Theo was employing a high-level sales tactic by asking the other party to state their price first. Our little ones have progressed so much.
Seeing Sejun smiling at him
'Chairman Park, do you like me that much, meow? Puhuhut. I bet you can't take your eyes off me, Vice Chairman Theo, meow!'
Theo gained even more confidence.
"Puhuhut. Mimyr, have you ever seen something like this, meow?"
After finalizing the rice noodle contract with Mimyr, Theo took out a corn of stamina and asked,
But
"Meheh. This is corn. I've eaten a lot of it before, baa."
Mimyr wasn't particularly impressed by the corn Theo took out.
"Puhuhut. This corn is different from any corn Mimyr has seen before, meow! Because the great Chairman Park grew it, meow!"
Theo said arrogantly, handing the corn to Mimyr.
So what changes just because it's grown by someone named Chairman Park? Mimyr, receiving the corn nonchalantly and examining it.
"What's this... baaaa?! What is this, baa?!"
Mimyr was greatly surprised after checking the options of the stamina corn.
Not only was it amazing that eating corn could increase stats, but what was even more astonishing was that the corn's grade was A-class.
Generally, the higher the grade of the crop, the better its taste, excluding exceptional circumstances.
And Mimyr had never seen A-class corn before.
Crunch.
Mimyr bit into the raw A-class corn to taste its natural flavor.
Mimyr, closing her eyes to fully savor the taste of the corn, didn't need to say a word; her rising lips indicated how excellent the corn tasted.
"Sweeet!"
As Mimyr opened her eyes and spoke cheerfully,
"Puhuhut. How's Chairman Park's corn, meow?!"
Theo asked with a proud voice, as if showing off.
"Amazing, baa! Chairman Park must really be a genius at farming, baa!"
"Puhuhut. That's right, meow! Chairman Park is amazing, meow!"
"Hehehe, you guys."
Just as Sejun was looking at the two of them praising him.
Ppyak!
Black Rabbit came looking for Sejun.
Ppyak!
[Uncle, come with me!]
"Huh? Where to?"
Ppyak!
[We need to draw a family portrait!]
Black Rabbit had come to fetch Sejun and his siblings.
"A portrait?"
Ppyak! Ppyak!
[Yes! Hurry!]
Black Rabbit urged, wanting to include Sejun and his siblings in the royal family portrait to be hung in the lobby of White Castle.
"It's not possible, meow! I still haven't received Aileen noona's stamp!"
Reminded of the contract sent to Aileen, Theo shouted. Mimyr needs to become my subordinate, meow!
"Heheh."
Seeing Mimyr mesmerized by Sejun's crops in front of him, Theo began to feel anxious.
But Theo was too scared to rush Aileen.
'Meow... Aileen noona, why haven't you stamped the contract, meow?'
Unaware of Aileen being upset, Theo had no choice but to wait.
And then
Krueng! Krueng!
[Cuengi can't go now either! Cuengi hasn't finished eating yet!]
Slurp, slurp.
Cuengi, still eating the rice noodles, also said he couldn't go.
Ppyak!
[Uncle, help me!]
Knowing that Theo and Cuengi listened to Sejun's every word, Black Rabbit immediately asked Sejun for help.
And then
"Alright. Vice Chairman Theo, what's the problem?"
Heh. Resolver Park Sejun steps in. Sejun started to resolve Theo's problem first with an arrogant voice.
"Chairman Park! Aileen noona..."
"The contract? You sent a contract to Aileen?"
"That's right, meow!"
Theo looked at Sejun with sparkling eyes. With the great Chairman Park stepping in, now Aileen noona will stamp the contract, and Mimyr will be my subordinate, meow!
"Just a moment. Aileen, did you see the contract Theo sent?"
[The tower's administrator says that she saw it a short while ago and is currently stamping the contract.]
Reluctantly, Aileen stamped the contract in response, unable to resist Sejun's words.
"Okay. Thanks."
[The tower's administrator feels embarrassed and says there's no need to thank her for this matter between you.]
[The tower's administrator says she's finished educating the Holy Stone and sends it with you.]
Along with Aileen's words, a contract and
-Absolute Obedience to Sejun-nim!
An evolved Holy Stone Ice Cube with a newfound discipline shone in Sejun's hand.
"Vice Chairman Theo, here."
"Puhuhut. As expected, Chairman Park is great, meow!"
As Sejun handed Theo the contract stamped by Aileen
Click.
Theo quickly placed the contract down next to Mimyr.
And then
"Heheh."
"Mimyr, move over a bit, meow!"
Mimyr, still distracted by Sejun's crops, was nudged towards the contract.
"Mehehe. Baa?!"
Following Theo's direction and sensing something odd, Mimyr looked down at the floor.
Press.
Precisely her hind foot landed on the blank space of the contract. Consequently, the contract was completed.
"Puhuhut. Now Mimyr is my subordinate, meow!"
"Eek! I told you that wouldn't work on me!"
Swoosh.
Anticipating Theo's trickery, Mimyr, who was already prepared, sprayed a contract nullification potion on the contract Theo was shaking.
However,
"What?! Why isn't it being erased?"
The content in the contract remained due to the vast difference in power levels.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
"Puhuhut. Subordinate, I'm counting on you from now on, meow!"
Theo spoke, patting the dispirited Mimyr on the shoulder.
While Theo was making Mimyr, a legendary merchant, his subordinate,
"Cuengi, you can eat that later, let's eat honey first."
Sejun tempted Cuengi with honey, planning to move while feeding him.
But
Krueng! Krueng!
[No, Cuengi is in the middle of a contest! Can't stop now!]
Slurp, slurp.
Cuengi said this while looking at Uren, who was eagerly eating noodle soup on the other side.
"Vice Chairman Theo..."
"Leave it to me, meow! I'll handle it, meow!"
Sejun sent Theo to stop Uren from eating more noodles.
"Puhuhut. Let's go, meow!"
Krueng!
[Now Cuengi can go!]
As Theo and Cuengi agreed to follow Black Rabbit,
Ppyak!
[Follow me!]
Black Rabbit led Sejun and the animals to the room where the painters were waiting.
At the destination followed by Black Rabbit, there was a grand throne with two smaller thrones placed in front of it.
Peep!
Ppiyak!
Around, Black Rabbit's parents and other family members who had already arrived were gathered.
Ppyak!
[Uncle, you can sit at the back!]
Black Rabbit guided Sejun to the grand throne.
Thump.
As Sejun sat on the throne,
"This is my place, meow!"
Krueng!
Naturally, Theo and Cuengi took their places on Sejun's lap,
(Pip-pip.)
And a golden bat perched on Sejun's right shoulder.
Then
Pi-ppi!
Ppyak!
As ChuChu and Black Rabbit took their seats on the thrones in front of Sejun's throne,
Peep!
The rabbits gathered around them.
Shortly after
Ppimik!
[Don't move!]
Dozens of grey rabbits, serving as painters, began earnestly painting the royal family's portrait on a huge canvas.
Shh. Shh. Shh.
The room filled with the busy sounds of the rabbits' paintbrushes.
However, this serene moment didn’t last long.
Gororong.
Kurorong.
Kyoorong.
Baerorong.
Starting with someone's snoring, sleep contagiously spread until eventually, a catastrophe occurred with everyone falling asleep.
Ppimik! Ppimik!
Unable to wake the royal family, the artist rabbits hurriedly tried to recall their appearance before sleep and continued painting.
***
In the dense red mist of the outskirts of destruction.
"How pathetic. To be defeated by just a dragon and return..."
"Krugh! If only that thing hadn't swallowed something strange..."
Halphas spoke bitterly in response to the other's words.
"A dragon swallowed something strange?"
"Yes. It was round... After eating it, it became stronger than me, even though I had unlocked the second level of my seal."
"Did you say it was a Black Dragon?"
"Yes. Why?"
"No reason. Just got a bit curious."
"Hmph! Soon, when we unlock the third level of our seal, it won't matter."
"That's true. Alright, go and recover."
Halphas concentrated to heal his body.
And then,
"What did he swallow?"
The being conversing with Halphas showed interest in what Kaiser had swallowed.
If only one dragon ate it, it would be fine, but if all dragons consumed it, they would be defeated again.
But if they were the ones to consume it...
"Our overwhelming victory."
Fenrir, the god-hunting wolf and the first seat among the Apostles of Destruction, licked around his mouth while gazing at the Black Tower.
