Solo Farming In The Tower

: The One Who Can't Fight is Sejun!

TL: Hanguk

Inside Sejun’s mental world.

“What are you doing?! Why are you copying my appearance?! Change it right now!”

“You’re the one who needs to change your appearance quickly!”

There were two Sejuns there, each claiming to be the real Sejun.

True to his job as a Copyist, Kapi had transformed into Sejun’s appearance.

Who is the real Sejun?

The giant wolf, Blackie, was watching the two of them, pondering who to attack.

In Sejun’s mental world, Blackie’s size was so enormous that it was difficult for the two to fit him in their field of vision, so they were unaware of Blackie.

There was only one chance. Blackie had to be very cautious.

If he accidentally attacked the real Sejun, Sejun’s soul would be extinguished, and naturally, Sejun would die.

Which one is our Sejun?

While Blackie was deep in thought,

Thwack! Thwack!

The two Sejuns, who had been arguing, started fighting each other.

No.

“Aargh!”

One Sejun was being beaten unilaterally.

His stats were low, he had no combat skills or experience, so it was inevitable.

That’s right. The one getting beaten was the real Sejun.

‘What’s with this guy? He told me to pass the test, then transformed into me and started hitting me?!’

And if you’re going to transform into me, you should have the same stats and skills!

While Sejun was feeling aggrieved,

‘Found him!’

Blackie identified the real Sejun.

The one who can’t fight is Sejun!

Blackie was 100% certain.

Bang!

Blackie carefully moved his paw and stepped on the fake Sejun.

“That’s cheat…”

The fake Sejun, crushed by the suddenly appearing giant pillar, managed to say a word before turning into gray smoke and being absorbed by Sejun.

“You’re even more of a che…”

Sejun, who was responding, lost consciousness.

***

“Ugh.”

[You have absorbed the thoughts of Copyist Kapi.]

[You have learned how to use the Skill Copying Stone.]

[You can now use the Skill Copying Stone more efficiently.]

[Your Mental Strength has increased by 50.]

While reading the messages after opening his eyes,

“Chairman Park, are you awake, meow?!”

Kueng?!

[Dad, are you okay?!]

Theo and Cuengi, who had been massaging Sejun’s face and body while he was unconscious, asked in delighted voices.

“Yeah. I’m fine…”

As Sejun answered and tried to get up,

“Chairman Park, stay lying down, meow!”

Kueng! Kueng!

[That’s right! Dad needs to rest more!]

Theo and Cuengi pressed down on Sejun’s body, preventing him from getting up. They thought Sejun had fainted from exhaustion.

So, they were making him rest.

Though he felt fine…

Sejun wanted to get up,

…

But with both of them pressing down, he couldn’t get up.

Kirorong.

Listening to Blackie’s snoring, Sejun was forced to take a break.

Is this how you use it?

Sejun examined the Skill Copying Stone and brought it near Theo’s body.

Then,

[Do you want to copy the target’s skill?]

A message appeared.

“Yes.”

When Sejun answered,

[You will randomly copy one of the target’s skills.]

The Skill Copying Stone copied one of Theo’s skills. Since Theo didn’t resist, no permission was needed.

[You have copied the skill: Meow Step (Master).]

“Meow Step?”

When Sejun looked at the Skill Copying Stone,

[Skill Copying Stone]

→ Currently copied skill (1/2): Skill: Meow Step (Master)

The recently copied skill was displayed.

And the ‘(1/2)’ displayed next to it.

Originally, he could only copy one skill,

Hehehe. Thanks to the residual thoughts of Copyist Kapi.

With the ability to use the Skill Copying Stone more efficiently, he could now copy up to two skills.

As Sejun looked at the copied skill Meow Step, the skill description appeared.

[Skill: Meow Step (Master)]

→ A creative skill made by Theo Park, the legendary merchant, and the deadly dragon clawed golden cat subordinate of the great Black Dragon, for fast movement.

→ Chairman Park, is so great, meow!

→ It’s a skill that allows high-speed movement using magic power with an effect of Agility Stat x5 for 100 seconds.

→ Chairman Park, I respect you, meow!

→ If moving on four legs, it has an effect of Agility Stat x10 for ultra-high-speed movement.

→ Chairman Park, you’re the best, meow!

“Wow.”

Sejun marveled at the skill description.

It’s amazing. Being able to move at five times the Agility stat for 100 seconds…

You can move at 10 times the speed when walking on all fours, but he didn’t want to move that fast to that extent.

Maybe because it’s a creative skill…

The titles like the legendary merchant, and the deadly dragon clawed golden cat subordinate of the great Black Dragon, which the Black Tower system doesn’t recognize, were part of Theo’s thoughts included in the skill description.

Chairman Park, is so great, meow! Chairman Park, I respect you, meow! Chairman Park, you’re the best, meow! These redundant praises from Theo were directly included in the skill description.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

In short, there were many unnecessary words.

Hehehe. Vice Chairman Theo mentions me even in his skill.

Of course, Sejun was very pleased.

While Sejun was reading the skill description,

“Chairman Park, isn’t it hot, meow?”

Theo fanned Sejun with his front paw.

Kueng?

[Dad, aren’t you thirsty?]

Cuengi handed Sejun a cup of water, treating him with great care.

A little later,

“Let’s pack up quickly and go home.”

As Sejun stood up,

“Chairman Park, there’s one more thing I’m pulled to, meow!”

Theo led Sejun to another pile of jewels.

And then,

“This is it, meow!”

As Theo put his front paw into the pile of jewels and pulled,

Koogooong.

With a heavy sound, a golden cart that was buried in the pile slowly moved and revealed itself.

Why is there a cart here…?

[Automatic Cart Wandering Between the Black Tower and Golden Tower]

Despite its grand name, the cart had a very simple structure, a square box with four wheels attached.

“What is this?”

Wandering the Black Tower and Golden Tower? Automatic cart? Does it move automatically?

Sejun hurriedly placed his hand on the cart to check its options.

[Automatic Cart Wandering Between the Black Tower and Golden Tower]

→ A cart created during the promotion exam for the legendary merchant of the Black Tower.

→ Made from materials such as lightning-struck giant paulownia tree, bone powder of a sacred bone, Holy Stone Speed, top-grade magic stones, and thunder spirit stones.

→ Due to the lightning-struck paulownia tree, bone powder of a sacred bone, and thunder spirit stones, it has strong resistance to lightning attributes.

→ Put items to sell in the cart, set the desired price, and the cart will wander the Black Tower and Golden Tower for 30 days, selling the items automatically. (The cart moves to a different floor every 10 days.)

→ If all items are sold, it returns immediately, but the cart can only wander again after 30 days from the initial departure date. (By paying 10 billion tower coins per remaining day, the cart can be sent to wander immediately.)

→ If you set items you want to buy in the cart, it will return after purchasing up to 5 types of items. (If you don’t set all 5, the cart will automatically purchase items for the remaining slots.)

→ Bound to the legendary merchant Theo Park.

→ Usage restriction: Legendary merchant, Magic power 10,000 or more

→ Creator: ??, God of ????

→ Grade: ★

“Ah. This is…”

A cart created during the promotion exam for the legendary merchant. This seems to belong to Uren… but it seems like it got bound to Theo when he touched it.

“Huh?! That’s my cart!”

As if confirming Sejun’s guess, Uren shouted, recognizing the cart.

“Uren, I’m sorry.”

Sejun, holding Uren’s shoulder, spoke in an apologetic tone.

“Huh? Why?”

“Well… the cart got bound to Theo.”

“Meow?”

Theo, realizing the cart was bound to him, looked surprised at Sejun’s words.

“Uhehe. It’s okay. I was originally going to give it to Vice Chairman Theo anyway.”

“Really?”

“Puhuhut. I’ll use it well, meow!”

Thanks to this, Sejun and Theo’s faces lit up with smiles.

The moment Uren saw the automatic cart that wandered between the Black Tower and Golden Tower, he thought it would be better for Theo to use it.

Because of his own misfortune. If he used it, the cart might end up in some strange place.

The world might even face destruction…

In fact, Uren had tried using the cart briefly the day he became the legendary merchant.

He had sent it out empty to make it return quickly, but less than 10 minutes later, it came back covered in the corpses of strange little monsters.

They had died during the dimensional travel.

Uren was convinced. Those creatures were not of this world. The cart, which was supposed to go to the Black Tower or Golden Tower, had ended up in some strange and dangerous place and then returned.

After that, Uren had been pondering how to use the cart, but when the faceless thief Loon stole it, he felt relieved.

Although he was unfortunate that his other properties were taken too.

“Uren, thank you. I’ll make you a lot of delicious food in return.”

“Uhehe. Thank you.”

At Sejun’s words, Uren smiled brightly.

After legally receiving the cart from Uren,

“Vice Chairman Theo, let’s send the cart out once.”

“Puhuhut. Understood, meow!”

Theo began loading items for sale into the cart. He loaded cherry tomatoes, sweet potatoes, green onions, carrots, and potatoes, and set the prices.

“For items to buy, just set the land deed for the 35th floor of the Golden Tower for now.”

“Puhuhut. Understood, meow!”

Following Sejun’s instructions, Theo set the item to be purchased in the cart.

“Then, go and make a lot of money, meow!”

As Theo lightly pushed the cart,

Wooong.

A black hole appeared in front of the cart, and it moved into the hole.

After sending the cart,

“So, this is the hideout of the faceless thief Loon, huh.”

Seeing Uren’s cart here confirmed it. No wonder there were so many treasures.

After a few more hours of gathering the items, they finally managed to empty the treasure vault.

Everyone’s pockets were so full of jewelry that they couldn’t hold any more.

“Cuengi, let’s go catch the thief now!”

Kueng! Kueng!

[Got it! Leave it to Cuengi!]

As it was finally time for him to shine, Cuengi eagerly sniffed the air and followed the trail of the faceless thief Loon.

As they moved, they found a staircase, and upon climbing it, a gigantic laboratory appeared.

The walls were lined with countless books and reagents, and the desks and floor were piled high with documents.

At that moment,

Kueng?

Cuengi tilted his head in confusion.

“Cuengi, what’s wrong?”

Kueng!

[The scent stops here!]

“Do you smell anything else?”

Kueng! Kueng!

[There are other scents! But there are too many!]

Cuengi shook his head as he answered.

“Puhuhut. Chai…”

Sejun quickly covered Theo’s mouth, knowing he would want to step in at this moment. If Theo acted here again, Cuengi would be disappointed once more.

“If you stay still, I’ll extend your exclusive right to my knee by one week. Nod if you agree.”

Nod. Nod.

Theo nodded vigorously at Sejun’s words.

Good. Persuasion successful.

Sejun removed his hand from Theo’s mouth.

And then,

Hmm…

He fell into deep thought.

How could he catch the thief? No, how could he summon the owner?

Sejun pondered for a moment.

“Ah! Cuengi, give a light Kueng-foooo!”

Kueng! Kueng!

[Got it! Kueng-foooo!]

At Sejun’s command, Cuengi, without much doubt, used Kueng-foooo at 10% output.

Clang.

Clang.

The reagents shattered by Kueng-foooo. All the reagents on one side of the wall were broken.

Hehehe. You still won’t come out after this mess?

Sejun’s plan was to cause chaos.

Clearly, this place was a space for important long-term research. The owner has no choice but to appear. Definitely.

But it seemed this much wasn’t enough; there was no sign of anyone showing up.

In that case…

“Cuengi, how about we do a little zapping after a long time?”

Kueng!

[Understood!]

Shushushushuk.

At Sejun’s words, Cuengi began rubbing his front paws together.

Then,

Crackle. Crackle.

Bright white sparks were produced, dazzling to the eye.

If I bring this to the documents, they’ll all burn up instantly. What will you do?

This was Sejun’s signal to the owner of the laboratory.

At that moment,

“St-stop! You really can’t do that! Please!”

From a hidden spot in the ceiling of the laboratory, the faceless thief Loon appeared.
