Solo Farming In The Tower Chapter 813 85: The Chaotic Halloween Day (5) / 809

99th floor of the Black Tower.
-Duhahaha. How's my cloak, the Poison-Immune Cloak Seven-Star Firen, gifted by Sejun?
Tier's purple dragon statue flapped the purple cloak hanging from its neck using wind magic and spoke in a boastful voice.
-Puhahaha. That's nice, but it's nothing compared to my Flame Armor Seven-Stars Kalsheid that Sejun gave me.
Ramter also hurriedly removed the armor from his main body and equipped it onto his dragon statue, showing it off to the other leaders. He subtly used light magic to make the armor shine.
-These bastards, pushing it too far…
-Would a dragon who hasn't received a gift from Sejun be able to live here without feeling bitter?
But the nature of their envy was a bit different from before.
In the past, it was annoying simply because they were showing off items received from Sejun.
-But honestly, I'm really jealous.
-Yeah. Those two have been getting stronger lately.
These days, it was because of the performance of the items. With the birth of the Fire Spirit and the Poison Spirit, the spirits' power was creating a synergy with dragons of the same attribute, causing the Red Dragons and Purple Dragons to grow slightly stronger.
If more spirits were to be born, that effect would only grow larger.
-Sejun better bring something that matches my attribute next time…
-Please, Water Attribute!
The leaders started hoping that Sejun would bring items matching their own attributes. They couldn't bear watching the others show off anymore.

[Azathoth No. 99]
→ Among the items created by Master Craftsman Azathoth, who makes everything into items, this received Azathos's recognition and became Item number 99.
→ A bracelet made using the soul and body of the Pintos, the Lord of Thunder Spirits, it stores nearby lightning in normal times and amplifies it to unleash even more powerful lightning.
→ Creator: Azathoth, the master artisan who turns everything into items.
→ Usage Restriction: All stats must be over 3.5 million
→ Grade: ★★★★★★★
→ Skills: <Lightning Domination (Master)>, <Divine Punishment (Master)>, <Terra Lightning (Master)>
The bracelet obtained after defeating Elekita was a double-digit numbered item.
"If it's lightning, I can give it as a gift to Artemis-nim."
Hehehe. This time, I'll deliver it personally.
Having heard through the Children of Creation that 7-star item gifts were wildly popular among the dragons, Sejun couldn't sit still.
"Hehehe. Vice Chairman Theo, let's cash in big this time."
"Puhuhut. Got it, meow!"
Just as Sejun and Theo were grinning slyly,
Kking!
[Butler! Give this one a name!]
Blackie urged Sejun.
"Alright. Let's see."
-How dare you name something made by Azathoth-nim…
Crackle crackle.
Once again, the item violently resisted being named.
Kking!
[Shut up!]
-……
The item quieted down at Blackie's scolding.
In the meantime.
99, lightning, Pintos, bracelet, Divine Punishment, Terra Lightning…
Sejun gathered the keywords and began naming.
And then,
Combining 99, Divine Punishment, Terra Lightning, Bracelet, and Pintos,
"GuGuCheonTe PalPintos." [GuGu = 99 + 천 (Cheon) from 천벌 (Divine/Heavenly Punishment) + Te from Terra + (팔) Pal from 팔찌 (Bracelet) + Pintos]
Kihihit.
Looks like the butler's finally getting the hang of this again!
Blackie was somewhat satisfied with the name.
[You have attempted to rename Azathoth No. 99 to GuGuCheonTe PalPintos.]
-No! With a name like that…
Azathoth No. 99 strongly resisted.
…
..
.
[Upon equipping GuGuCheonTe PalPintos, an option that increases all stats by 12,000 has been granted.]
[The scattered soul of the Pintos, the Lord of Thunder Spirits within GuGuCheonTe PalPintos has been revived and replaces the ego of GuGuCheonTe PalPintos.]
The Namer effect activated, dispersing the ego of Azathoth No. 99 and restoring it to its original soul.
Following that, a message appeared saying that thunder spirit tribe magic from beginner to supreme level had been added to GuGuCheonTe PalPintos's built-in skills.
[You have achieved the great creation feat of reviving the soul of the ancient and extinct Thunder Spirit Tribe.]
…
..
.
Sejun acquired <Title: Second Father of the Thunder Spirit Tribe> for achieving a feat. Additionally, his divinity increased by 100, and all of his stats rose by 1000.
"Good work, everyone. We're going to keep collecting candy, what about you guys?"
As Sejun spoke to his party and opened the Void Storage where the Creation Children and Children of Destruction were waiting.
"Huh?"
The children had already fallen asleep under their favorite blankets. Their hands were full of candy.
Judging by the candy wrappers scattered around them, it looked like they fell asleep while eating.
This is how they get cavities…
"Guys, you need to brush your teeth before bed."
Sejun woke the children.
"Uunng…?"
"Don't swallow the toothpaste."
He thoroughly brushed each of the sleepy kids' teeth. Their bodies were extremely sturdy, so the chance of cavities was low, but he wanted to eliminate even that slight possibility.
I hate the dentist.
Sejun himself hated going to the dentist.
After finishing brushing the kids' teeth and stepping out,
"Uhehehe. Sejun-nim, is there anything to eat?"
Uren, who had come to his senses thanks to Theo's treatment, was now looking for food.
Since Halloween was almost over…
"Vice Chairman Theo, go collect the pumpkin masks with the kids."
Sejun decided to make pumpkin porridge using the pumpkin masks.
"Puhuhut. Got it, meow! Let's go, meow!"
As Theo left Sejun's lap to collect pumpkins,
Kkaung!
Baektang, who had been waiting for his chance, launched himself at Sejun's lap.
Only 1 cm left to reach Sejun's lap.
I did it!
Just as Baektang was certain of his success,
Thunk.
Kkaang…
"Puhuhut. Not happening, meow!"
Baektang was smacked on the back of the head by Theo again and knocked out. Theo had been keeping an eye on him the whole time while collecting pumpkins.
Sejun took the pumpkins that the group had collected, boiled them well, and made a thick porridge, which he distributed to everyone.
Since pumpkin is a plant, even the Black Minotaurs could eat it, and because it was sweet like honey, the Poisonous Queen Bees also enjoyed it.
"Wow. That smells delicious!"
"Looks like they're selling it over there?"
"I was just getting hungry, should we go eat?"
As the smell of the pumpkin porridge spread, people who were still out late partying or who lived nearby were drawn in by the aroma and came over.
"Puhuhut. Everyone, eat up, meow! It's from our great and generous hybrid Chairman Park, meow!"
Theo gladly handed out pumpkin porridge to the people too.
"Puhuhut. If you ate, pay up, meow! We also accept candy today, meow!"
Of course, it wasn't free. He said eat up, not that it was free.
Sejun's food stall, which opened briefly at dawn as Halloween came to an end, would go on to become a legendary pop-up restaurant talked about every Halloween for years to come.
-I was terminally ill with late-stage lung cancer, but after eating pumpkin soup from a food stall that appeared at dawn when Halloween ended, my health improved and I was declared cured by the hospital! Oh, and by the way, the soup only cost 5 pieces of candy. It's definitely a miracle restaurant.
-I couldn't stop doing drugs, and that night I was wandering outside looking to score again, but I smelled something delicious. The smell was so amazing I completely forgot about getting drugs, went into the shop, and devoured the pumpkin porridge. And from that day on, strangely enough, I haven't even craved drugs once.
These reviews began appearing on social media from people who ate Sejun's pumpkin porridge made with the "Poison Detoxifying Japanese Pumpkin."
And aside from the miracle cases, there were countless smaller testimonials too:
-I was always tired, but after eating pumpkin soup at a shop run by a talking yellow cat, I wake up refreshed every day!
-Ah. Whenever I feel down, I remember that pumpkin soup I had at dawn after Halloween. It was my soul food. I really hope I can eat it again next year.
Hundreds of casual reviews were also posted.
As everyone filled their stomachs with this midnight snack, morning dawned,
Kkwek!
The Mushroom Ants returned triumphantly, carrying an enormous amount of candy on their backs. It was more than what Sejun, the Minotaur King, and Sweetie had gathered combined.
The Mushroom Ants who had gone west had diligently visited houses and collected candy.
Kkwek…
At first, they had little success,
Kkwek!
[Let's change our strategy!]
Merchant-in-Training Mushroom Ant No. 83,818 came up with a clever idea, changing the situation.
-Trading organic mushrooms for candy.
The Mushroom Ants utilized their specialty, selling the mushrooms growing on their backs in exchange for candy equal in weight.
Then, suddenly.
[Advanced Elixir: King Oyster Mushroom]
→ A king oyster mushroom cultivated by a Tenant Farmer Mushroom Ant under the Tower Farmer has absorbed all surrounding nutrients on its own and has grown into an elixir.
→ It boasts outstanding taste and aroma.
→ On consumption, all stats +7
→ Cultivator: Tenant Farmer Mushroom Ant of Tower Farmer Park Sejun
→ Shelf Life: 210 days
→ Grade: A
"C-crazy!"
This is one of Park Sejun's items!
A hunter who had bought the elixir from a Mushroom Ant bragged about it and tagged the Mushroom Ants' location on social media.
From then on, the Mushroom Ants didn't need to go anywhere, just sell mushrooms from where they stood. Even late at night, hunters and wealthy people came by car on their own.
"I'll pay candy worth 10,000 times the weight of that advanced elixir! Sell it to me!"
"Then I'll pay 20,000 times!"
Thanks to that, the Mushroom Ants were able to collect an enormous amount of candy.
"What? You want 100,000 tons of candy delivered right now?! Look, the time is-"
"I'll pay five times more."
Candy sellers also profited tremendously. It was a win-win for everyone.
"This year's Halloween winner is the Mushroom Ants!"
Kkwek!
Kkwek!
At Sejun's declaration, the Mushroom Ants raised their antennae in cheers.
"Then, I'll now present the winners with their prizes!"
Sejun placed candy necklaces around the Mushroom Ants' necks.
Making candy necklaces was labor-intensive, but
"Bind."
With just a single Word of Power from Aileen, the task was easily solved.
Is this what they mean when they say a single word can repay a thousand nyang debt? (TL: Nyang old korean coin currency)
Thinking idly, Sejun placed candy necklaces around the over 100,000 Mushroom Ants.
As the line of Mushroom Ants came to an end,
Kuehehehe.
(Bahehet.)
Kihihit.
"Hehe."
"Uhehehe."
Cuengi, Paespaes, Blackie, Taecho, and Uren were lined up behind the Mushroom Ants, waiting to receive their candy necklaces. Theo didn't line up because he had no interest in candy.
"Aileen, make five more necklaces. With rice cakes, grapes…"
"Okay."
Sejun asked Aileen to make five more necklaces for the his companions in line.
Kueng!
[Thank you, Daddy!]
For Cuengi, a rice cake and candy alternating necklace.
(Pip-pip! Thank you, Sejun-nim!)
For Paespaes, who liked fruit juice, a grape necklace.
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. Butler, you're the best!]
For Blackie, a roasted and dried sweet potato necklace. Since Blackie's legs were short and the necklace dragged on the ground, Sejun wrapped it around the neck multiple times.
"Hehe. Thank you, Daddy!"
Taecho, the master of mimicking her older brothers, received a mixed snack necklace of candy, rice cakes, grapes, and sweet potatoes.
"Uhehehe. Thank you!"
Uren received a sausage necklace.
And then.
"Our Vice Chairman Theo and Iona also worked hard."
Sejun placed a grilled fish necklace with five fish on Theo's neck and a peanut necklace on Iona's.
"Meow?!"
"Kyoot?"
Theo and Iona were surprised by the unexpected gifts.
"Puhuhut. Iona, did you see that, meow? Our great hybrid Chairman Park gifted me a fish necklace, meow!"
"Kyoot kyoot kyoot. I also got a peanut necklace from Sejun-nim!"
Kuehehehe. Kueng!
[Hehehe. Big bro, Cuengi got a rice cake and candy necklace!]
(Bahehet. I got a grape necklace!)
Kihihit. Kking!
"Hehe. Taecho got a necklace too!"
While the group proudly showed off the necklaces they received,
"Let's go back now."
Sejun returned to the Black Tower along with Aileen, the rest of the party, the Creation Children, the Children of Destruction, and the 99th floor residents of the Tower.
Naturally, he also brought Heuk Wol-bok and Bochi back to the Black Tower with him.
Ppyarorong.
Pororong.
Since they were sleeping so peacefully, he didn't wake them up.
"Alright, we're heading out now."
ChuChu!
Ppiik!
He delivered them safely to ChuChu and Lara on the 55th floor of the Tower.
[You have arrived on the 99th floor of the Black Tower.]
After briefly stopping by the 55th floor, Sejun moved to the 99th floor of the Tower.
-It's Sejun!
-Sejun!
-Welcome back, Sejun!
He was warmly welcomed by the leaders.
"Hehehe. I'm back!"
104.28.193.250
Sejun was filled with happiness at the thought of cashing in big.
