Solo Farming In The Tower-Chapter 33Vol 2. : Welcome to the Kindergarten of Destruction! ()

[You have arrived in the Level 9 world <Necucha>.]

Sejun passed through the dimensional gate created by Bat-Bat and arrived in <Necucha>.

“Level 9 world?”

So it must be dangerous.

“Taecho, you’re staying hidden, right?”

“Yes!”

Hearing Taecho’s answer, Sejun relaxed—

Grab.

Queng?

He quietly grabbed Queng’s side with both hands and hugged him to shield himself. The instinct of a sunfish.

Only after he felt safe did Sejun look around.

“It’s peaceful?”

Maybe because of the high durability of a Level 9 world, or maybe the [Children of Creation Tainted by Destruction] hadn’t caused trouble yet, the world was quiet.

Then—

Boom!

A heavy rumble echoed from afar.

“Let’s head that way for now.”

“Puhuhut. Sounds good-nya!”

Quuhehehe. Queng! Queng!

[Queng will carry everyone! Ride on Queng-da yo!]

Kkihihit. Kking!

[Hihit. The Great Kkamang calls dibs on the front seat!]

Sejun and the group rode on Queng and flew toward the source of the rumble.

“Don’t come near! I said don’t come!”

“No! I’m scared!”

Crack!

Crack!

They discovered two children, appearing to be around 5 and 3 years old, who were smashing incoming trees.

[Purifying Ents]

“Huh? Those are Ents!”

What the children were slamming down were Ents.

So they were here—after completing their mission and going off to find another World Tree.

The Ents that used to be on the 99th floor of the Tower had suddenly stopped moving, and Grapey said they left to guard another World Tree.

Part of that was true—but in reality, Flamy had relocated their souls to other worlds.

Because the Ents kept flocking around Flamy, trying to protect her.

They almost got caught by Sejun several times.

[This won’t do. At this rate, Sejun-nim will find out.]

Flamy decided to relocate the Ents.

Since Ents are essentially tree spirits, they could easily migrate as long as there were trees in the new world.

And so the Ents dispersed to various worlds, one of them being <Necucha>.

[It’s... Sejun... nim...]

[Sejun... nim... is here...]

The Ents that had been approaching the children spotted Sejun and waved their branches excitedly.

Then—

[Protect... the Creator God...]

[Sejun... nim... help us...]

They begged Sejun for help. The reason they approached despite being beaten down was to protect the children who carried the Creator God’s energy.

“Don’t worry. I got this, everyone.”

Sejun said to the Ents, then looked at Theo and Queng.

“Puhuhut. Leave it to Vice Chairman Theo-nya!”

Queng!

[Leave it to Queng-da yo!]

Thud!

Thud!

As soon as they finished speaking, the two children had fainted.

“Wow! You guys are so cool!”

Taecho clapped her hands in delight.

Once the kids passed out—

Crack.

Crack.

The Ents began caring for them. They cut off branches to make beds, fashioned fans, and fanned the children.

“Heeheehee. This is fun.”

Taecho was soon among them, basking in the Ents’ care.

Then—

[Sejun... nim... pick...]

The Ents held out their fruit, asking Sejun to pick it.

Plop.

As Sejun plucked a fruit—

[You have obtained a Purifying Ent Seed.]

[Your profession experience has increased slightly.]

[Proficiency in Seed Harvesting (Master) has increased slightly.]

Messages appeared.

Sejun was about to plant the seed immediately, but—

[Seed... please...]

The Ent extended a branch, asking for the seed.

“Huh? Oh.”

A bit flustered, Sejun handed the [N O V E L I G H T] seed over.

Crack.

Crack.

The Ent took the seed and brought it to the mouth of one of the unconscious children.

Snap.

It crushed the seed with its branch—

Drip. Drip.

And fed the sap to the child.

As expected from a “Purifying” Ent, the sap contained cleansing powers that could drive out the destructive energy in the children and help heal their wounds.

The Ents gave meticulous, selfless care.

A tree that gives endlessly... no, they were Ents.

Sejun watched them in admiration.

Bwooo.

A horn sounded from afar.

Then—

[Don’t want... to be caught...]

[Must... escape...]

[We... move...]

The Ents suddenly trembled in fear and began moving frantically.

“What’s wrong, everyone?”

As Sejun approached them—

“There they are!”

“Don’t let a single one escape!”

Thousands of fully armored troops surrounded the area and approached the Ents.

“What the?”

Is it because of them?

Sejun approached the soldier wearing the most ornate armor—presumably the one in charge.

They were fully clad in iron, but on closer inspection—

“Huh?!”

It wasn’t armor?

They were just built like that. The Iron Golem race of <Necucha>. Their outer appearance became flashier as they grew stronger.

Still—

Living armor? That’s fascinating.

Unaware of this, Sejun approached with curiosity in his eyes.

“What are you?!”

The Iron Golem soldiers responded to Sejun’s gaze with hostility, aiming swords, spears, and bows at him.

Heh. Aiming weapons at me? That means I’m acting in self-defense, right?

With a legitimate excuse now, Sejun grinned.

“Puhuhut. Since you pointed weapons at the Great Hybrid Chairman Park, you are now officially full-time employees of Sejun Company-nya! Queng, let’s go-nya!”

Theo shouted with a wide grin.

Then—

Queng!

Wham! Smack!

Together with Queng, they started knocking out the enemies.

Kkihihit. Kking!

[Hihit. Bros! Take the Great Kkamang with you too!]

Kkamang cheerfully bounded forward, charging at the enemies.

A moment later—

“Puhuhut. Time to get stamped-nya!”

Thump.

Theo stamped the unconscious soldiers on the back of their heads.

[You have acquired 100 slaves.]

[Due to the effect of <Title: Slave King>, all stats have increased by 2.]

Sejun’s stats increased.

Then—

Boom.

“Frederick presents himself before the Great Kkamang-nim’s Master!”

The enemy commander Frederick knelt before Sejun and shouted.

Kkihihit. Kking!

[Hihit. Master! The enemy commander was caught by the Great Kkamang!]

Kkamang proudly barked from beside Frederick.

“Why were you trying to capture the Ents?”

Sejun asked the question he’d been wondering about.

“Well...”

Frederick hesitated.

Grrrr. Kking?!

[Grrrr. You’re not going to answer our Master’s question quickly?!]

Kkamang snarled and barked ferociously at Frederick.

“Eeek! It was to extract the Ents’ souls and put them into siege weapons for battlefield use!”

Frederick hurriedly confessed in fear.

“What?! You’re going to do what with the souls of these sweet beings?!”

Sejun’s face hardened. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

“A magician extracts their souls and forcibly implants them into tree-based combat weapons to use them as war slaves.”

Despite trembling, Frederick explained further—because that was the only way to survive.

Has your soul ever been crushed almost to shreds? Or chewed up?

Kkamang’s psychological re-education was terrifying enough to leave lifelong trauma.

“Everyone, I’m stepping away for a moment—watch the kids.”

[Yes...]

Sejun entrusted Taecho and the kids to the Ents and—

“Where’s the battlefield? Lead me.”

He immediately set out with his party to rescue the enslaved Ents.

***

Marius Plains.

“Advance!”

“Hold the line!”

There, a brutal war between Iron Golems and Stone Golems was underway.

The Stone Golems were defending with a massive wall, while the Iron Golems were trying to breach it at all costs.

Then—

“Deploy the siege weapons!”

Thud. Thud.

The Iron Golem side released massive Wood Golems as siege weapons.

The Wood Golems were constructed from pieces of wood bound together with metal and magic.

Creak.

Creak.

They made grotesque noises as they slowly marched toward the Stone Golems’ walls.

It hurts...

Let me go...

I don’t want to kill...

The tortured souls of the Ents screamed, but their voices, trapped by magic, could not be heard.

“Don’t let them get close!”

“Protect the walls! If the wall falls, we’re dead!”

“Target the legs!”

“Set them on fire!”

The Stone Golems focused all fire on the Wood Golems’ legs to stop their advance.

If the Wood Golems breached the wall, the Iron Golems would swarm in—and then all hope would be lost.

Once the gate fell, a one-sided massacre by the Iron Golems was inevitable. Born weaker, the Stone Golems couldn’t match the Iron Golems.

If they hadn’t had the ability to construct walls, they would’ve been wiped out long ago.

Still, the Wood Golems trudged forward under heavy fire.

And just before one of their arms touched the wall—

BOOOOM!

Something crashed into the battlefield with a massive explosion, kicking up a cloud of dust.

“......”

The sudden blast brought a hush to the battlefield.

Whoooosh.

The dust quickly dispersed—

“Everyone, stop.”

“Puhuhut. Freeze-nya!”

Queng!

Kking!

Sejun and his party revealed themselves.

“Kids, you’re free now.”

Snap.

Sejun snapped his fingers, and fire burst forth, engulfing the Wood Golems.

Fwoooosh.

The Wood Golems were protected by many anti-fire enchantments, but Sejun’s flames, now empowered by multiple divine authorities and titles, were too much. They couldn’t stop it. Though the flame’s power was low, it burned steadily.

“They’re burning the Wood Golems! They’re the enemy!”

Seeing the Wood Golems on fire, the Iron Golems grew enraged and attacked Sejun.

But—

“To dare threaten the Great Hybrid Chairman Park—unforgivable-nya!”

Shhk.

In an instant, Theo slashed with Ilnyangseom and sliced the Iron Golems into six pieces.

Queng!

[If you attack Dad, you’ll be punished-da yo!]

BOOM!

Queng enlarged his body and slammed his giant front paw down, sending a clear warning to the advancing enemies.

Kking?! Kking!

[Want to get scolded by the Great Kkamang?! Don’t mess around!]

Kkamang barked fiercely, trying his best to intimidate the enemy. Of course, his barking only lightened the tense atmosphere created by the others.

Meanwhile—

Boom.

One of the Wood Golems turned to ash and collapsed.

Shwaa.

A freed Ent soul rose from the ashes.

However—

-So scared... Don’t want to fight...

The Ent’s soul, exhausted and abused inside the Wood Golem, was no longer sane.

Kkihihit. Kking!

[Hihit. Hey! Come over here! The Great Kkamang will protect you!]

Hop!

Kkamang jumped up, trying to swallow the Ent’s soul.

“Come here.”

Sejun called for the Ent’s soul instead, and Kkamang’s jaws snapped at empty air.

Slip.

The soul drifted into Sejun’s chest and entered his mental world. Once recovered, Sejun planned to transplant it into a good tree.

Kking... Kking...

[Master, that’s not fair... The Great Kkamang can do it too...]

Kkamang drooped in disappointment.

“Park Kkamang, why are you down about something like that? You’ve got something you’re even better at.”

Kking?

[What the Great Kkamang is better at?]

Kkamang’s eyes sparkled at Sejun’s words.

“Yeah. Psychological re-education.”

Kkihihit. Kking! Kking!

[Hihit. That’s right! The Great Kkamang is good at mental training!]

Cheered by Sejun’s words, he puffed up with pride.

“Go! Park Kkamang!”

Kking!

At Sejun’s cry, Kkamang charged forward—

Thwack.

Kking!

He got kicked and rolled back in a heap, collapsing in a spread-eagle pose in front of Sejun.

Kking!

[Master! That guy kicked the Great Kkamang!]

Hehehe. Yep, sunfish indeed.

“Alright! I’ll have Queng beat him up for you.”

As Sejun consoled the tattling Kkamang with a smile—

“You bastards! Stop! You dare destroy the property of the great wizard Kenolfstein—this shall not be forgiven...!”

An Iron Golem stepped forward. From the elaborate patterns, he appeared very strong.

So what? He’s just another target for Kkamang’s re-education!

“Go! Park Kkamang!”

Sejun hurled Kkamang at the magician.

Kkihihit! Kking!

[Hihit. This time I’ll get you good!]

Kkamang joyfully flew through the air—

Wham.

He crashed full force into the self-proclaimed great wizard Kenolfstein.

Thud.

Both Kkamang and Kenolfstein collapsed, unconscious.

Afterward, Kenolfstein developed tremors due to the severe trauma from Kkamang’s re-education and could no longer use magic.

Then—

Kking! Kking!

[Master! The Great Kkamang got a bump on his head! Blow on it, please!]

After finishing his mission, Kkamang clutched his lump and whined to Sejun.

As the situation settled—

BOOM!

A meteor crashed down from the sky.

“...?!”

Ah, right!

There’s still one more!

“Everyone!”

Sejun urgently called out to his party.
