Part 2 Chapter 127: I Will Work Hard to Accumulate Time and Marry Aileen! / 851
TL: Hanguk
[A quest has occurred for the Black Tower’s Tower Farmer, Park Sejun, holder of <Unique Title: Proxy Creator God>.]
[Quest: Please go to the Lv. 1 world <Eran> and pull out the spinach growing at a point where causality has been twisted. If the spinach is left unattended, a disaster in the form of a giant monster may occur.]
Reward: 45 seconds accumulated for <Unique Power: Temporary Creator God>
“Tsk. Only 45 seconds?”
Sejun was disappointed as he looked at the quest. As expected, the lower the level of the world, the smaller the reward. This was because the impact on the overall world was minor.
Although the reward was disappointing,
“Guys, a quest popped up.”
“Puhuhut. Got it, meow!”
Sejun hurriedly got up from his seat and moved to complete the quest.
Quests acting as proxy for the Creator God came about 3 times a day, so they were not frequent, and sometimes if he dawdled, the quest would disappear.
And if a quest disappeared, it meant a disaster had occurred. Since such a situation could lead to the world’s destruction, it had to be resolved quickly.
That was why the Creator God entrusted Sejun with the Proxy Creator God duties. Because even while on a date with Meirin, he would have to rush over immediately if causality became twisted.
Thus, Sejun and his companions moved to the Lv. 1 world <Eran>.
“Huh? Is that it?”
He discovered the spinach growing at the location where causality was twisted, imbued with a strange energy.
Squeak!
And a mouse trying to eat that spinach.
Probably that little guy was the cause of the giant monster disaster, right? To be precise, a giant rat disaster.
“Where do you think you’re going?!”
Thud!
Sejun stomped his foot, chasing away the mouse and preventing the giant monster disaster from occurring.
Yank.
He pulled out the spinach.
Then,
[You have harvested Protein-Packed Spinach.]
[Your job experience has slightly increased.]
[Proficiency in Harvesting (Master) has slightly increased.]
[You have acquired 10,000 experience points.]
Harvest messages appeared.
[Congratulations!]
[You have achieved the feat of creating a new variety in the Tower.]
...
..
.
“Oh. A new variety!”
Then new variety messages appeared as well. He came to do a quest and ended up harvesting a new variety along the way.
Should I check the options?
Sejun checked the spinach’s options.
[Protein-Packed Spinach]
→ This is a mutant spinach whose components were altered as the world’s causality twisted.
→ It contains an abnormally high amount of protein, which leads to tremendous muscle growth upon consumption. However, as a side effect, to maintain the massive muscles, one must consume a huge amount of protein afterward. (If the required protein is not consumed, the consumer loses rationality and puts everything they see into their mouth.)
→ Upon consumption, Strength stat increases by 100,000.
→ Shelf life: 250 days
→ Grade: S
“Wow. That’s terrifying. I should give this to Mudasang.”
After reading the options, he immediately put the spinach into the mouth of the Mimic in the Void Storage.
Mudasang was the new name Sejun had given to the Mimic, short for the Infinite Devourer Box.
When the task was completed,
[You have pulled out the spinach growing at the point where causality was twisted in the Lv. 1 world <Eran>.]
[The twisted causality has returned to normal.]
[You have completed the quest.]
[As a quest completion reward, 45 seconds has been accumulated for <Unique Power: Temporary Creator God>.]
The quest completion message appeared.
"Everyone, let's go home."
When Sejun was about to return with his companions,
[A quest has occurred for the Black Tower’s Tower Farmer, Park Sejun, holder of <Unique Title: Proxy Creator God>.]
A new quest appeared. This time it was to retrieve a book placed at a point where causality was twisted in the Lv. 2 world <Nurka>. The reward was 5 minutes accumulated.
For a Lv. 2 world, that was a pretty good reward.
“Hehehe. I might be able to go on a date with Aileen today?!”
"Puhuhut. Then can I, Vice Chairman Theo, also get exclusive rights to the knee, meow?"
"This little!"
“Chairman Park, I was jokimg, meow! Let's tark about it, meow!”
Sejun grabbed Theo’s cheek and punished him with the Dangling Punishment for trying to take advantage of his date for personal gain.
Kihihit. Kking! Kking!
[Hehe. Butler! Shake him harder!]
Blackie watched Theo being punished and cheered Sejun on enthusiastically, glad it was not him being punished.
A little while later.
"Puhuhut. Say that again, Blackie, meow!"
Kking... Kking...
[Big bwo, Blackie was jokimg...pwease...save me...]
Of course, soon after, Blackie got his cheeks grabbed and received the Dangling Punishment from Theo, who had been released by Sejun.
While they were passing the Dangling Punishment down like inherited affection,
[You have arrived in the Lv. 2 world <Nurka>.]
Sejun and his companions arrived at their destination and began searching for the book to retrieve.
However,
“I'm supposed to find it here?”
Unlike before, where it was easy to find the target since nothing else was nearby, this place was a massive library. There were just too many books.
“What should I do?”
Sejun first pondered and then began searching for books with strange energy but
[Your First Contract With a Cursed Demon, You Can Do It Too!]
[A Diary Soaked in the Blood of the Wrongfully Murdered]
[100 Ways to Make a Pact With an Ancient Demon King]
[Midnight Horror Tales With 100 Wicked Witches]
[Prayer of the Corrupted Spirit]
[Try Casting a Curse]
There were too many books with strange energy.
“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, I feel a Pull, meow!”
In the midst of this, Theo managed to score some loot.
[Reinterpretation of Ancient Magic]
Just from the title, it looked like a difficult book but
"Kyoot kyoot kyoot. This is Great Wizard Heget's research journal!"
“I see. Then this is for you, Iona.”
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Thank you!”
Iona’s eyes sparkled with excitement, so Sejun handed her the book.
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Thank you.”
Iona quickly became engrossed in the book, unable to control her enthusiasm.
Meanwhile,
Kuehehehe. Kueng!
[Hehehe. Dad, Cuengi found a suspicious book!]
Kihihit. Kking! Kking!
[Hehe. Butler! Great Blackie found a suspicious book! With great Blackie’s instincts, this is definitely a very dangerous book!]
“Hehe. Daddy, Taecho found a suspicious book too! Please read it!”
Cuengi, Blackie, and Taecho all found suspicious books and brought them to Sejun.
[Who Ate All That Honey?]
[23 Secrets of Beast Tamers to Make Troublemaker Wolves Obedient]
[Starting Today, I'm Going to Be a Rebel!]
“Hm....”
Judging by the titles alone, they didn’t seem suspicious.
But connecting them to Cuengi, Blackie, and Taecho’s situations made them very suspicious.
“Good job, guys.”
Sejun praised the three of them and put the books into his Void Storage. He placed the one Blackie found near the entrance, thinking he should read it later.
While they were searching for the book, an hour passed before they knew it.
“Why can’t I find it?”
Sejun still had not found the book said to be at the point where causality was twisted.
“Could it be hidden under the floor?
In movies, stuff like that happens all the time, right?
To keep it hidden from others, it’s stashed under wooden floorboards, or there’s a secret basement?”
So he asked Iona, who was absorbed in reading, to use see through magic.
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Power of magic...”
Iona used see through to look through the floor.
And then,
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Sejun-nim, there’s a suspicious book here!”
Finally, a hidden book was discovered beneath the floor in a remote corner of the library.
[The Sensual Nightlife of the Prince of the Abyss]
Just the title alone was incredibly suspicious.
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Appraisal.”
Iona used Appraisal magic.
[The Sensual Nightlife of the Prince of the Abyss (Currently summoning the Great Demon Lord of Lust)]
It became even more dangerous.
When Sejun looked at the book,
[The Secret and Sensual Nightlife of the Prince of the Abyss (Currently Summoning the Great Demon Lord of Lust)]
→ This is a book recording the secret private life that the man known as the Prince of the Abyss wanted to keep hidden.
→ Due to the influence of twisted causality, it is in the process of summoning the Great Demon Lord of Lust.
→ Author: Prince of the Abyss
→ Grade: S-
“Wow. So the Great Demon Lord was about to be summoned?”
It was more dangerous than he thought.
Of course, the danger was still ongoing but
“Go! Park Blackie! If you handle this well, you get two Roasted and Dried Sweet Potatoes!”
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. Butler! Leave it to the great Blackie!]
Thud.
[The summoning of the Great Demon Lord of Lust has been canceled.]
Blackie headbutted the book, giving the Great Demon Lord of Lust a mental correction and stopping the summoning.
Once the book was retrieved,
[You have retrieved the book placed at the point where causality was twisted in the Lv. 2 world <Nurka>.]
[The twisted causality has returned to normal.]
[You have completed the quest.]
[As a quest completion reward, 5 minutes has been accumulated for <Unique Power: Temporary Creator God>.]
A quest completion message appeared.
“Hehehe.”
I can go on a date with Aileen today too.
Others might say, what kind of date can you have in just 5 minutes? But to Sejun, who normally couldn’t even have a second of physical contact, 5 minutes holding hands with Aileen was an incredibly precious time. Of course, it wouldn’t just end with holding hands.
“Guys, let’s go back.”
“Puhuhut. Sounds good, meow!”
Sejun returned home with his companions and
“Hahaha. Sejun, you’re back?”
The Creator God, who had arrived earlier and was waiting, greeted Sejun warmly.
“Creator God-nim, you’re here?”
Sejun also welcomed him gladly. At first, he had thought the Creator God was just using him, but he was wrong.
Thanks to the quests, he was able to accumulate time and enjoy daily dates with Aileen.
“Yes. I came by to get some snacks.”
“Sure. Just a moment. I’ll make them quickly.”
While Sejun was busily preparing the snacks,
"Ahem. Sejun, it's your choice, but how about accumulating a bit more time before using it?"
The Creator God quietly approached and spoke to him.
“Huh? Accumulate more?”
"Yes. You need to marry Aileen too, Sejun. I would like to see your wedding with Aileen before I die."
“Pardon? What do you mean...? What does marriage have to do with time?”
“You dense fool! How long are you going to keep holding hands and just kissing?! Don’t you know you need more time if you’re going to get married?!”
The Creator God raised his voice when Sejun didn’t understand what he meant.
“Ah....”
Flush.
Only then did Sejun understand the Creator God’s words, and his face turned bright red.
And then,
“Meow?! Chairman Park, are you okay, meow?! Your face is so red, meow!”
Swoosh!
“Calm down, meow!”
Swoosh!
“Calm down, meow!”
"Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Sejun's body temperature has risen too much! Power of ice...."
Kueng! Kueng!
[Dad’s face is too red! It’s an emergency! ! Kueng-fooo! Kueng-fooo!]
Kking! Kking! Kking!
[Emergency! The butler is on fire! Shari! Spray ice!]
“Waaah. No! Daddy, don’t burn!”
Seeing Sejun's face flushed red as if he was about to catch fire, his companions went into a frenzy.
A little while later.
Thanks to Theo’s paw fanning, Iona’s ice magic, Cuengi’s blowing, Shari’s ice following Blackie’s instructions, and Taecho’s tears, Sejun’s body temperature quickly dropped.
"Ugh. I'm cold...."
As Sejun’s temperature dropped, his heart froze as well, and all impure thoughts were wiped clean.
However,
“Creator God-nim, here are your snacks.”
"Good. Thank you. I'll come again tomorrow."
"Yes. Take care."
"Very well. Sejun, you know, right? You can do it."
“Of course. You too, Creator God-nim. You can do it!”
I will work hard to accumulate time and marry Aileen!
Fueled by the Creator God’s encouragement, the impure thoughts that had nearly died out flared up again.
