Chapter 439: I Can't Resist Gossiping!!
TL: Hanguk
Seed Shop Headquarters.
“It’s already been a week…”
Leah opened her mouth with a look of despair as no one had visited her temple for a week.
Leah still didn’t know that Podori had blocked the Leah Road.
“What’s going on?”
Why is Park Sejun mad at me? What did I do wrong?
Leah pondered the reason for Sejun’s anger.
And then
“Ah! Could it be that?”She thought of one reason why Sejun might be angry.
Could he be mad because I delayed the creation of the divine relic?!
These days, every time a god’s seal was broken, They’d throw a party, eating, drinking, and having fun…
“I’ve been partying almost every day.”
No wonder he’s mad.
“But how do I make Park Sejun forgive me?”
While Leah was contemplating,
[Black Tower’s Tower Farmer Park Sejun has received a job quest.][Please test Black Tower’s Tower Farmer Park Sejun to verify his farming skills, and if you’re satisfied with Park Sejun’s farming skills, say ‘I acknowledge’.]
A message appeared.
A test for Park Sejun?!
This was an opportunity to show how much she trusted Park Sejun.
There’s no need for a test between us! I trust you completely, Park Sejun!
“I acknowledge!!!”
So, without even giving a test, she quickly acknowledged him.
[You are the first to acknowledge Black Tower’s Tower Farmer Park Sejun’s farming skills.]Oh! First place!
“Hehe. Now Park Sejun’s anger will subside a bit, right?”
Please forgive me quickly!
Leah clasped her hands together and prayed for divine power to gather.
And then
[Black Tower’s Tower Farmer Park Sejun has expanded your temple by 50 square meters.][Divine power increases by 50.]
[Third Apostle of Creation, Blackie Park, passed through your temple.]
[Divine power increases by 10.]
[1000 Calamity Guardian Destruction Devourers, have passed through your temple.]
[Divine power increases by 5.]
…
..
.
Along with the message that Sejun had expanded the temple, Blackie and the Calamity Guardian Destruction Devourers, passed by, increasing Leah’s divine power.
“Park Sejun! Park Sejun!”
Park Sejun, you generous man! I knew I could trust you!
Leah chanted Sejun’s name, who had quickly forgiven her.
“Huh?! Third Apostle of Creation, Blackie Park?!”
There is a third one?! Then who is the second?
She belatedly noticed Blackie’s name and was puzzled.
The only Apostle of Creation the gods knew was Emila Ibenes.
“Ah, that’s not the important thing right now!”
She had to prevent Park Sejun from getting angry again.
Leah hurried to create the divine relic.
***
Black Tower, 99th Floor.
“First one should be rewarded.”
Sejun decided to expand the Leah Road as a reward for Leah, who had acknowledged him first.
So he went to where Leah Road was.
“Land moving.”
Using the skill with Myler’s hoe, he expanded Leah Road by 33 square meters.
And then
[Leah Road]– Leah, God of Abundance, who will make our pockets abundant with the Harvest Elixir. She was a good god.
– Acknowledged first for the level 100 job quest.

While Sejun was expanding Leah Road,
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehehe. Guys, follow me!]
Kiki!
Kiki!
Blackie, with the Calamity Guardian Destruction Devourers, was playing around Sejun.
He had been subdued for a while due to mental education, but after becoming an Apostle of Creation, Blackie had become arrogant again.
Especially after acquiring the <Title: The Noble Wolf Protecting Black Tower’s Tower Farmer Park Sejun>,
I’ll protect my butler!
He felt a sense of duty to protect Sejun even more.
So Blackie led his subordinates and circled around Sejun,
Blackie and the Calamity Guardians naturally stepped on Leah Road, increasing Leah’s divine power.
And then
[I absolutely must not get caught.]
Podori, which had been blocking Leah Road, hurriedly pulled back its roots to avoid being discovered by Sejun.
Having vented some of its anger, it felt it would be in trouble if Flamie found out it had been blocking Leah Road.
It would face severe scolding along with having to consume a massive amount of nutrients.
“Done.”
104.28.193.250
Sejun finished expanding Leah Road.
“But how do I get recognition from Hamer, the God of Farming?”
He suddenly wondered.
Patrick, the God of the Earth, was sealed on the 35th floor of the Golden Tower, so he could get his acknowledgment in exchange for unsealing him.
But there was no information at all about Hamer, the God of Farming.
“Well, I’m sure he’ll show up eventually?”
Sejun put aside issues he couldn’t solve immediately and
“Guys, let’s eat!”
headed to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
“What should we eat today?”
Sejun pondered over today’s dinner menu as he looked around the Void Storage.
“We’ve been eating delivery food continuously these days…”
Today, we’ll eat light.
As Sejun passed by the section of delivery food and entered deeper, he saw fresh beef, pork, and chicken.
Then…
“Should we have samgyeopsal lightly today?”
Samgyeopsal would be lighter than ogyeopsal. It should be.
After picking up the samgyeopsal, Sejun grabbed some lettuce and perilla leaves that weren’t in the farm and came out of the void storage.
Sizzle.
As Sejun grilled the samgyeopsal,
“Chairman Park, are you grilling my grilled fish too, meow?!”
Theo, who had been sleeping while clinging to Sejun’s leg, woke up and asked.
“Yeah. Of course. Can’t you see it’s grilling here?”
Sejun showed the skewered fish being grilled golden brown beside the grill where the samgyeopsal was being cooked.
“Puhuhut.”
Theo watched the grilled fish with a satisfied expression when,
Kueng!
[It smells delicious!]
Kihihit. Kking! Kking.
[Hehehe. Butler! Please give me food!]
Cuengi and Blackie came in.
Blackie, still somewhat affected by the mental education, hastily asked in a respectful way, watching his older brothers.
A little while later.
“Alright. Let’s eat.”
When Sejun placed the grilled samgyeopsal on a plate and put it in the center of the table,
Kueng!
[Cuengi will wrap ssam for Dad!]
Cuengi, who had eaten samgyeopsal once before, boldly started wrapping ssam.
On a piece of lettuce, he placed two perilla leaves, five pieces of samgyeopsal, three garlic cloves, five slices of Cheongyang chili pepper, and three spoonfuls of white rice?
“Huh?! Cuengi, isn’t that a bit too big?”
Sejun said in a worried voice.
But
Kueng!
[It’s okay! It tastes best this way!]
Cuengi added a handful of shredded green onions, half a spoonful of gochujang, topped it with five more pieces of samgyeopsal, and wrapped it with lettuce and perilla leaves, going his own way with the ssam wrap.
And then,
Kueng!
[All done!]
He presented the gigantic ssam to Sejun.
“…Wow. It looks delicious! Thank you, Cuengi.”
This isn’t ssam; it’s more like a rice ball.
Unable to say what he was really thinking, Sejun accepted the ssam.
Kueng!
[Dad, you have to eat it in one bite!]
Unable to ignore Cuengi’s expectant gaze, Sejun stuffed the gigantic ssam into his mouth.
Crunch. Crunch.
It was difficult to fit in his mouth, but it tasted good.
Thumbs up.
When Sejun gave Cuengi a thumbs-up,
Kuehehehe. Kueng!
[Hehehe. Now it’s Cuengi’s turn!]
Cuengi, satisfied, made his own ssam with three times the content he had put in Sejun’s.
Of course, it was also three times larger too.
Kueng!
After giving a spirited shout, Cuengi put the ssam into his mouth. Even while eating, he showed his fighter spirit, befitting the winner of the Food Fighter competition.
Kihihit. Kking! Kking!
[Hehehe. The great Blackie can’t lose! I’ll eat in one bite too!]
I used to eat well too!
Feeling competitive at Cuengi’s sight, Blackie put a whole piece of samgyeopsal into his mouth, lifting his head.
He planned to swallow it all at once.
But
Huh?!
The samgyeopsal, too large for Blackie’s throat, got stuck, blocking his airway.
Kek! Kek!
“Hey! Why are you trying to swallow that whole!”
Seeing Blackie struggling, Sejun quickly assessed the situation and performed the Heimlich maneuver by pressing on Blackie’s belly.
Kkyak!!!
With a strange sound, Blackie coughed up the piece of samgyeopsal stuck in his throat.
“Blackie is banned from meat for a week.”
Kking!
[No!]
As Blackie despaired over being unable to eat meat,
“I’ll give you some dried sweet potato instead.”
When Sejun took out the dried sweet potato,
Kihihit. Kking! Kking!
[Hehehe. Great! Give them to me quickly!]
Blackie instantly recovered from his despair and wagged his tail vigorously.
***
In the Head Wizard’s room of the Black Wizard Tower.
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. I like it very much.”
Iona smiled contentedly as she looked at the Staff of Suppressing Gravity she held in her hand.
Recently, the atmosphere in the Black Wizard Tower was at its best.
Thanks to this, the ten vice chairmans who took tests every day were very happy.
In the past, they would have been dragged away and subjected to gravity torture until they fainted…
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. I explained this yesterday. Look at this and try solving it again.”
“Yes!”
These days, Iona gave several hints and chances until they solved the problems.
While the ten vice chairmans were taking their tests,
What might Sejun-nim need?
Iona pondered about a gift for Sejun.
Although Theo also contributed to making the staff, Iona was only thinking about a gift for Sejun.
There was a reason for this.
Even if she gave a gift to Theo, he would give it to Sejun anyway.
Moreover,
Kyoot kyoot kyoot. To capture Theo-nim’s heart, I must first capture Sejun-nim’s heart!
If Sejun, who was Theo’s mental pillar, liked it, Theo would naturally like it too, making it a win-win.
While Iona was thinking about a gift for Sejun,
Scribble. Scribble.
She heard the sound of something being written enthusiastically next to her.
Kyoot?
When Iona turned her head, she saw Blackster, who had already passed the test, drawing a blueprint.
“Blackster, what is that?”
“Oh, this? These are the magic equipment designs Sejun-nim requested from me last time.”
A few days ago, while Sejun was waiting to give Iona the staff, he told Blackster the options he wanted for his magic equipment.
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Really?”
Magic equipment that Sejun wants.
Kyoot kyoot kyoot. There is no better gift than this!
Hearing Blackster’s words, Iona examined the blueprint closely.
Iona carefully scrutinized the blueprint.
Impressive.
As expected of Blackster, with his high understanding of magic, the equipment designs were highly efficient.
However,
“Kyoot? What does this ‘Jjangsegeon’ mean?”
There were some unfamiliar words on the blueprint.
“It’s short for ‘super strong gauntlets.'”
“Then what about ‘Jjangsebu’?”
“It’s short for ‘super strong boots.'”
“Then ‘Jjangsebel’ must be short for ‘super strong belt.’ Did Sejun-nim name these?”
The names seemed quite haphazardly given. Iona thought of Sejun the moment she heard them.
“Yes, that’s right. Honestly… these names make me not want to make the equipment.”
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. I understand. Honestly, Sejun-nim’s naming sense is…”
Having witnessed Sejun’s terrible naming skills several times, Iona understood Blackster’s feelings.
“Right?! Isn’t it strange, Iona-nim?! It’s not just me, right?!”
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Of course. To be honest, Blackster’s too…”
“Sniff. I’m so glad you understand!”
As Iona and Blackster were badmouthing about Sejun’s naming skills,
I can’t resist gossiping!
“But didn’t that yellow cat who came a few days ago seem a bit slow?”
Grun, the 7th Vice Chairman, who had been twitching his mouth wanting to speak, finally opened his mouth, and
You idiot! That’s not it!
Blackster, sensitive to the mood as befitting a thief, shook his head and signaled to Grun trying to give him a hint as he noticed Iona exuding an icy aura.
But the wizards, who only studied magic and hadn’t learned to read the room,
“Not just a bit, he seemed really slow.”
“Right. Even his laugh, ‘Puhuhut,’ is so frivolous.”
Unaware that the atmosphere was turning cold, the other vice chairmans began to badmouth Theo.
Guys, read the room!
Blackster kept trying to give them hints with strong eye contact, but the wizards didn’t notice.
And then,
Huh?! Why does the atmosphere feel like this?
By the time the 10 vice chairmans realized something was wrong, it was already far too late.
“Kyoo-kyoo-kyoo- Everyone except Blackster, follow me!”
In the end, they were dragged away by Iona,
“Kyoo-kyoo-kyoo- How dare you insult Theo-nim?! Suppression!”
“Aack! We’re sorry!”
“Iona-nim, please spare us!”
They became the first testers of the Staff of Suppressing Gravity.
