Chapter 329: Hehehe. Vice Chairman Theo, did you see that?
TL: Hanguk
99th floor of the Black Tower.
-Kaiser, it seems Sejun will return using the bracelet you gave him. Hell be here soon.
-What?!
Kaiser was startled by Kellions words, broadcasting live Sejuns situation in the White Tower.
This is bad!
When Kaiser gave Sejun the Dragons Return Bracelet, there was still a speck of resentment left in him.
He didnt like that Sejun only listened to Aileen.
Thus, he engraved a return magic on the bracelet that activated at relative coordinates, not absolute ones.
Of course, he hadnt thought at the time that Sejun would go to another tower.
While Kaiser was realizing his mistake,
-Huh?! Why did Sejun appear on the 99th floor of the White Tower, not the Black Tower? Thats where Ajaxs magic power is
Kellion was surprised to see Sejun appear in an unexpected place. Fortunately, Theo was seen treating Sejun.
And then,
-Kaiser, did you actually engrave the return magic to activate at relative coordinates on Sejuns bracelet?!
Kaiser started to be questioned.
-What?! The return magic should be based on absolute coordinates! How could you give Sejun a bracelet engraved with relative coordinates?!
-Why would you use relative coordinates?!
Thanks to that, Kaiser was busy being scolded by the dragons.
-No. At that time, we didnt know Sejun would go to another tower
Kaiser earnestly tried to make excuses to the dragons.
Then,
-Grandfather.
Aileens cold voice sent shivers down Kaisers spine.
-Aileen This is
Kaiser hurried to explain the situation, but
-Im not talking to Grandfather anymore!
An angry Aileen cut off her conversation with Kaiser.
-Granddaughter
Kaiser was disheartened by Aileens declaration to cut off conversation.
-Sejun needs to come back quickly
Kaiser prayed for Sejuns quick return. Sejun was the only one who could resolve this issue.
***
Um
Sejun regained consciousness, feeling the pressure on his body.
Pat. Pat.
He found Theo and Cuengi kneading his face and stomach.
Theo was healing with his healing magic, while Cuengi was helping Sejun recover with physical magic massage.
Chairman Park, youre awake, meow?!
Kueng?!
[Dad, are you okay?!]
Theo and Cuengi asked with bright voices when they saw Sejun wake up.
Yeah, I think Im okay now. Ah! What about Blackie?!
Sejun urgently looked for Fenrir. If he was a normal sunfish, then Fenrir was a super sunfish. In the worst case, he might have already
Im sorry, Blackie, for not being able to protect you.
When Sejun was about to let go of Fenrir in his heart,
Blackie is over there, meow!
Huh?!
Theo pointed towards where Ajax was.
Blackie, you cant die! Recovery!
There, Ajax was seen using magic on Fenrir.
However,
Kiing
Fenrirs condition quickly worsened due to the surrounding magic.
Recovery!
Ajax used magic on Fenrir again.
Ajaxs recovery magic was like an oxygen respirator to Fenrir.
However, Ajaxs situation wasnt good. He was in a sealed state and lacking in magical power.
Unsealing Ajax would mean he wouldnt lack magical power, but it would put Sejun and Fenrir in more danger.
Sejun quickly grasped the situation.
Lets go back down to the 83rd floor of the tower.
After registering the waypoint on the 99th floor of the White Tower, Sejun decided to go back down to the 83rd floor.
Currently, without the Black Towers land deed, this was the best course of action.
Click.
Sejun held Ajax and Fenrir in his arms,
Ajax, continue treating Blackie inside the warehouse.
Okay! Hyung! Recovery!
Clang.
He put the two into the void storage and closed it. The inside of the void storage is an independent dimension, unaffected by the surrounding magic.
Thus, after asking Ajax to continue treating Fenrir,
Lets go, too.
Sejun, along with Theo and Cuengi, moved to the 99th floor waypoint of the tower.
Pat. Pat.
Because Sejun continued to receive massages from Theo and Cuengi, he couldnt move quickly.
Step. Step.
On the way walking slowly towards the waypoint,
Wow. Its vast.
Sejun marveled upon finally noticing the field of Elixir: Cherry Tomatoes Imbued with Powerful Magic Power that caught his eye.
The field was laden with white cherry tomatoes hanging in bunches.
He wanted to settle down and harvest the cherry tomatoes but
Meow
Theo, who was over-absorbing magic power with Energy Drain to protect Sejun, was becoming increasingly exhausted.
I need to hurry.
As Sejun hastened his steps,
[The Elixir: Cherry Tomatoes Imbued with Powerful Magic Power are grateful for the footsteps of the farmer and lend their strength.]
[Your Agility stat potential has increased from 1008 to 1009.]
The cherry tomatoes reciprocated to the sound of Sejuns footsteps.
Shortly after,
Phew. Weve arrived.
Sejun reached the waypoint on the 99th floor of the White Tower.
However,
I havent seen you guys before, who are you?!
There, the boss of the 99th floor of the White Tower was guarding the waypoint.
[Ogre King Les]
A giant white ogre. An entity almost as strong as the Minotaur King. An enemy that neither Theo nor Cuengi could handle.
Boom!
Only those who have permission from Lord Ajax
When Les threatened Sejun by pounding the ground with his fist,
Clang.
Sejun quickly opened the void storage,
Ajax, please say something.
He requested mediation,
Les, Sejun hyung is someone I decided to serve as my elder brother, so keep that in mind.
With a single statement from Ajax, the situation was resolved.
Yes! Lord Sejun, please come this way.
Les courteously guided Sejun towards the red crystal.
Tap.
Sejun placed his hand on the red crystal.
Then,
[The White Towers 99th floor waypoint has been saved.]
[Loading other saved White Tower waypoints.]
[Saved White Tower waypoints]
Tower 83rd floor
Messages appeared.
Good.
Just as Sejun was about to select the 83rd floor,
[The Black Towers 99th floor waypoint has been detected from the saved waypoints.]
[Congratulations!]
[You have achieved the feat of clearing both the Black Tower and the White Tower.]
[As a reward for the achievement, you have acquired the <Title: The One Who Reached the Summit of Two Towers>.]
[With the <Title: The One Who Reached the Summit of Two Towers>, the 99th floor waypoints of both towers are linked.]
[With the <Title: The One Who Reached the Summit of Two Towers>, the effects of the <Title: Retrogressor> are also activated in the White Tower.]
New messages appeared.
Huh?!
What? Sejun was confused by the unexpected messages.
Sejun was unaware, but marking the waypoint of the 99th floor, where there was nowhere else to ascend, meant that he had cleared the original tower.
Of course, the dragons, who had no interest in such things, didnt know this.
And so were the beings who became residents of the tower as the worlds fell. Normally, the world would fall before anyone could climb the entire tower.
Sejun was a truly unique case. Probably the first since the towers were created.
Then,
[Loading saved Black Tower waypoints.]
[Saved Black Tower waypoints (10)]
Tower 99th floor
Tower 98th floor
.
The list of the Black Towers waypoints appeared before Sejun.
Vice Chairman Theo, Cuengi, go into the void storage.
Understood, meow!
Kueng!
[Understood!]
After sending the two into the void storage,
Press.
Before passing out, Sejun quickly pressed for the 99th floor of the Black Tower.
[Moving to the Black Towers 99th floor.]
Sejun moved from the 99th floor of the White Tower to the 99th floor of the Black Tower.
***
-Sejun seems to be heading back down to the 83rd floor through the waypoint.
As Kellion spoke, watching Sejun disappear at the waypoint,
-But if Sejun is to return, shouldnt we quickly secure the Black Towers land deed?
-How about calling Iona?
-Should we?
Kaiser, Ramter, and Tier were pondering how to acquire the land deed.
Then,
-Huh?!
-Eh?!
-?!
-What is this energy?!
All the dragons turned their heads north.
And then,
-Its Sejun!
They flew swiftly towards the waypoint.
***
[You have arrived at the 99th floor of the Black Tower.]
Phew. I really made it back.
Sejun looked around and sighed in relief when,
Moo!
[Sejun~nim, welcome back!]
The Minotaur King, guarding the waypoint, greeted Sejun.
Yeah.
Clang.
As Sejun responded and opened the void storage to check on Fenrirs condition,
Its Chairman Park, meow!
Kueng!
[Dad!]
Its Sejun hyung!
Theo, Cuengi, and Ajax rushed out and clung to Sejun.
And then,
Kking!
Hey! carry me with you!
Plop!
Fenrir, now lively again after receiving treatment from Ajax, dashed and jumped into Sejuns arms.
Plop.
Sejun caught Fenrir,
Blackie, are you okay now?
He examined Fenrirs body all over.
Kking?! Kking!
Why are you doing this?! Stop it!
Fenrir got angry at Sejun for thoroughly checking his body.
Youre okay. Blackie, youve been through a lot, so eat this.
After checking Fenrirs body, Sejun gave him a piece of dried sweet potato. From experience, he knew that waking up from unconsciousness often came with hunger.
Kking!
Its the yellow and chewy thing!
Chomp. Chomp. Chomp.
As Sejun expected, Fenrir hungrily ate the dried sweet potato.
Our Blackie eats well. Aileen, Im back.
Sejun stroked Fenrir while informing Aileen of his return.
[The Towers Administrator says she is glad that you have safely returned.]
[The Towers Administrator says she was very worried about you.]
Thanks for worrying. Aileen, but is this bracelet supposed to only transport to the 99th floor of the tower?
Sejun asked, pointing to the Dragons Return Bracelet.
[The Towers Administrator says it seems like Grandfather played a trick with the bracelet.]
A trick?
[The Towers Administrator]
While Aileen was explaining that Kaiser had used relative coordinates instead of absolute coordinates for the return magic,
-Hahahaha. Has our Sejun arrived?!
Kaiser was the first to fly in and greeted Sejun.
However,
Our Sejun? After almost killing me, and you say that?
In front of Kaiser was not the usual gentle Sejun, but a dark transformed Sejun.
-Seems like Sejun is angry.
-He has every right to be.
-If it were me, Id leave the tower right away.
The dragons who followed were whispering behind, watching Sejun and Kaiser with keen interest.
-UghIll fix the bracelet right
No. Thats not enough. Kaiser, give me 10,000 of your scales.
-Alright.
And what about the dragon blood?
-We havent completed the container to hold the dragon blood yet
Kaiser, until the container is ready, youre not speaking with Aileen.
-What?! Thatsalright.
Kaiser answered as if he had no choice.
-Kaiser, youll really have to work hard to talk with Aileen again.
-So, will it take about a fortnight to make it?
-No way. Itll take at least a month, right?
Kellion, Ramter, and Tier were chatting happily, looking at Kaiser. It seemed they had no intention of helping.
However,
You three also need to help. Otherwise
They soon found themselves compelled to help. Though Sejun didnt continue speaking, the three dragons understood perfectly well.
If they didnt help
Ajax wont talk to me anymore, right?
Sejun wont let me dry anymore, right?
Sejun wont sell me any pumpkins, right?
The transformed Sejun was truly formidable.
As the dragons hurried off to make the container for the dragon blood,
Hehehe. Vice Chairman Theo, did you see that?
Sejun, who had pretended to be angry to deal with the dragons, relaxed his stern face and spoke with a proud attitude.
Chairman Park is truly amazing, meow! I admire you, meow!
Pat. Pat.
Theo praised Sejun and began massaging his face. I admire him, but his face has turned ugly, meow!
Day 373 in the tower. Sejun safely returned to the 99th floor of the Black Tower.
