Chapter 144
TL: Hanguk
Krueng! Krueng!
[If you lie to the end, there's no choice! Cuengi cannot let Daddy be a bad guy!]
If a parent tries to go down the wrong path, it's the child's duty to stop them. Cuengi, who had made up his mind, took out his branch stick. I'm sorry, Daddy! I'm hitting you to make you come to your senses!
Cuengi was at ease hitting Sejun with his branch because Sejun had the Kaiser's scale.
"Alright. Dad ate alone. So, Cuengi, put that branch down."
Faced with Cuengi's grim expression as he approached with his branch, Sejun hastily confessed. It was not because he was afraid of Cuengi disciplining him.
He just wanted to set an example as a parent... for real. The timing was a bit off though, but...
Krueng!
[Phew! That was close!]
Cuengi, who had prevented his dad from becoming a bad guy, heaved a sigh of relief and put the branch back on his back.
Then,
Growl.
Cuengi's stomach signaled for food.
"Hungry? Let's eat quickly."
Sejun hurriedly started cooking. Fortunately, he didn't get caught eating the elixir mushroom.
***
"Alright! Line up!"
The wizards began to control the monsters that had arrived on the 99th floor of the tower. They were laborers recruited for the construction of the new wizard tower.
Then,
"Is this the place?"
Among the laborers, a creature with a crocodile's head was carefully examining the surroundings. It was Reken, who had disappeared from 75th floor of the tower. Through days of investigation, Reken found that Theo's final destination was always the 99th floor of the tower.
'The Myler's Hoe must be there!'
So, while wondering how to enter the 99th floor without suspicion, Reken saw an for construction laborers for the gravity wizard tower and entered the 99th floor mixed in with the laborers.
Thus, while following the wizards, Reken arrived near Sejun's farm when,
"Take a short break here and then move again! Don't leave your spot!"
The wizards gave the laborers a rest and hurried towards Sejun's farm. To be precise, towards the crop storage.
Squeak!
The rabbit guarding the storage welcomed the wizards.
And then,
"Rabbit, give me two jars of cherry tomatoes and three jars of dried golden sweet potatoes."
"I'll take three jars of cherry tomatoes and 30 carrots."
The wizards began to order snacks from the rabbit guarding the storage. These days, buying snacks here was a great pleasure for them.
Although the low-level wizards could only eat green orbs, a little snack was allowed. The senior wizards in the tower also knew how hard it was to eat green orbs only.
Besides, the magical cherry tomatoes, which temporarily increased magic power, helped in getting a better feel for handling mana, making it a mandatory snack for wizards visiting Sejun's farm.
As the wizards were buying their snacks,
Sneak.
One of the laborers cautiously moved. It was Reken, who had come to find Myler's Hoe.
'Where could it be?'
Reken bent down and carefully looked around Sejun's farm.
Then,
"Huh?!"
Reken found the strategic weapon, the Legendary Land Moving, Myler's Hoe too easily. It was just stuck in a field nearby.
'It must be Myler's hoe, right?'
It was so poorly managed that Reken wondered if what he saw was a fake. To an unknown person, it would have just looked like a common farming tool on the side of the road.
But when Reken grabbed the Hoe, the earth's power responding to his strength confirmed that it was the legendary Myler's Hoe.
'Do they not know how extraordinary this equipment is?'
They knew. Sejun just considered it as just slightly better equipment, as he had felt the strength gap that could not be filled by the equipment alone.
'Whatever.'

Reken, who had obtained Myler's Hoe, quickly fled to the entrance of the 99th floor.
Buzz.
Buzz.
The poisonous honey bees were annoying him along the way, but they couldn't penetrate Reken's thick skin, so he just ignored them and ran.
And almost when he reached the entrance of the 99th floor of the tower,
Krueng!
[That's my dad's!]
Cuengi came running from afar and shouting.
***
30 minutes earlier.
Feeling guilty for eating the enhanced elixir mushroom alone, Sejun prepared a lot of food that Cuengi and the Golden Bat liked.
He made honey baekseolgi (honey rice cake) and sweet potato soup and took out bananas, watermelons, and mangoes which were limited in quantity from the void storage.
Krueng!
[It's delicious! Little brother, Golden Bat, eat a lot!]
(Pip-pip. Yes, big brother Cuengi, you too eat a lot!)
Cuengi and the golden bat feasted on the delicious food from morning.
After finishing a hearty breakfast,
"Then, I will be making makgeolli (rice wine). You two can play and have fun."
Sejun left Cuengi and the golden bat to play and went to the brewery. Since the amount of makgeolli to be supplied to the two dragons was not small, Sejun had the architect Grey Rabbits build a brewery for making makgeolli.
After Sejun left,
Krueng!
[I'm full now!]
(Pip-pip. Me too!)
When Cuengi and the golden bat were looking at each other's bulging bellies and laughing,
Buzz!
The seventh poisonous queen honeybee flew quickly from afar.
Krueng?!
[What happened?]
Cuengi asked the seventh queen honeybee.
Buzz! Buzz!
[Cuengi, there's big trouble! It's an intruder!]
Krueng?
[Did another poisonous honeybee come?]
Cuengi and the seventh honeybee were connected by a sticky honey connection. Sometimes when the eastern poisonous honeybees appeared, Cuengi would chase them away and receive a more special honey as a reward.
Buzz! Buzz!
[No! The intruder is running away with Sejun's hoe!]
Krueng?
Cuengi thought he had heard it wrong. Daring to steal my dad's stuff? There's no way.
But
(Pip-pip. If it's Sejun's hoe, it's a legendary equipment!)
Buzz!
[Yes! We have to catch them before they leave the 99th floor!]
The conversation between the golden bat and the seventh queen honeybee confirmed he hadn't heard wrong.
Krueng! Krueng?!
[How dare some bad guy steal Cuengi's Dad's stuff! Where's the bad guy?!]
Buzz!
[Over there!]
(Big brother Cuengi! Let's go together!)
So Cuengi and the golden bat followed the seventh queen bee, and after about 20 minutes, they saw a creature with a crocodile's head running with Sejun's hoe.

Every story has a beginning at lіghtnоvelcаve~c~о~m
Dadadada.
Krueng! Krueng!
[Put down that hoe quickly! It belongs to Cuengi's dad!]
(Yes, that's right! It belongs to Sejun!)
Cuengi ran quickly, spreading his arms wide to block Reken's way, and the golden bat surrounded him from behind.
"Kyakyakya! Move if you don't want to get hurt, kid!"
Krueng! Krueng!
[My name's not kid, it's Cuengi! And taking other people's things is bad!]
Chuk.
Cuengi pulled out the branch stick on his back.
"Land Moving!"
Thump!
Reken, who wanted to test Myler's hoe anyway, swung the hoe strongly toward the ground
Rumble. Rumble!
The ground began to rumble loudly. It was different from Sejun's hoeing.
And
Thump.
Giant stone hands, 5 meters in size, sprouted from the ground. Dozens of such giant stone hands surrounded Cuengi, the golden bat, and the seventh queen honeybee.
Buzz!
[Cuengi, what do we do?!]
The seventh honeybee who guided Cuengi spoke in a fearful voice after seeing the giant stone hands.
Krueng!
[Golden bat, protect the seventh!]
(Big brother Cuengi, what about you?)
The golden bat asked Cuengi in a worried voice. What if there was an accident?
But,
Krueng!
[Dad said it's okay to hit bad guys!]
Cuengi, clearly intending to use force,
Stomp. Stomp.
confidently stepped forward.
"Kyakyakya. Brave, aren't you? You must not know how scary the world is. Take this!"
Excited by the spectacle he created, Reken moved the stone hands to make fists and attacked Cuengi.
Whoosh.
Stone fists attacked Cuengi with a whistling sound at high speed
But
Krueng!
When Cuengi infused the enhanced branch with magic power and swung it,
Crash!
The enlarged branch shattered five stone fists at once.
And then,
Krueng!
[I'll teach the bad guy a lesson!]
Cuengi smashed the stone fists blocking his way and rushed towards Reken.
"Eek! Land Moving!"
Seeing Cuengi rushing towards him, flustered Reken moved the ground again.
And then,
Thump. Thump.
This time, the stone hands opened their hands and began to press down on Cuengi.
Krueng!
Experience the latest chapter at lіghtnоvеlсаvе~с~о~m
Cuengi stretched out his hands to resist the pressure.
But
"Land Moving!"
Thump! Thump!
Reken continued to summon stone hands to bury Cuengi.
"Kyakyakya. That should be enough."
When Reken was pleased as he looked at the 20-meter-high small hill of stones he created,
Crack.
The stone hands split apart.
And then,
Kruuuuueng!
An enlarged Cuengi appeared, breaking through the stone hill.
"How... How did?! Eek! Land Moving!"
As a giant bear 5 meters taller than the pile of rocks, appeared, Reken made a last-ditch effort. He thought that if he were pushed back here, it would be the end.
Rumble.
With a vibration incomparable to before, a gigantic hand appeared, 10 times bigger than the enlarged Cuengi.
Kruuueng......
Overwhelmed by the enormous stone hand, Cuengi was flustered.
Just then,
Kooeooeooeong!
From afar, a large pink mana wave in the shape of a bear paw collided with the gigantic stone hand. It was an attack from a pink bear.
......
There was no sound. And the stone hand disappeared.
Krueng!
[It's Mom!]
Emboldened by his mother's appearance, Cuengi rushed towards Reken again. But Reken was gone after the previous attack. He hadn't run away but had vanished along with the stone hand.
On the ground lay only Sejun's hoe, which had withstood the pink bear's attack.
Krueng! Krueng!
[I've cleaned up the bad guy! I've found Dad's hoe!]
Cuengi, having accomplished his goal, returned home with a proud expression.
"Huh? What's going on?"
Sejun, who had been making makgeolli, came outside, puzzled at the suddenly darkening sky, only to see it brighten again.
***
"From now on, you all will be building a farm on the 41st floor, meow!"
"Lord Theo, are you talking about a farm for farming?!"
Ulrich was taken aback by Theo's sudden order to create a farm. They were a fighting race that knew nothing but fighting, and now farming?
"Don't you want to be a subordinate of the great black dragon, meow?!"
"No... No, that's not it!"
"Farming is essential if you want to be a subordinate of the great black dragon, Chairman Park, meow! I went through this process too, meow!"
Theo said in a firm voice, acting as if he had farmed vigorously, although he had only helped with the farming when Sejun ordered or praised him.
"Understood! Then we will start building the farm on the 41st floor!"
Ulrich, who believed in Theo's words as steadfastly as stone, began to construct a farm on the 41st floor.
But among the millions of Black Orcs, nobody knew about farming. They had always stolen or hunted, never having grown anything themselves.
"The great sage and shaman, Luken, you take the lead in building the farm."
"Yes! Farming is all about planting and growing in the ground. Leave it to me!"
Thus, the farm's construction began under Luken's guidance, who had learned farming from a book. However, Luken knew no more about farming than the others.
"Plant the young Black Orcs in the ground!"
Luken thought that after planting, he should feed them and let them grow. Thus, the seeds Theo sowed began to take root in a strange direction.
And then,
"Meow meow meow!"

Unaware of what he had done, Theo went down to the 40th floor of the tower to meet Han Tae-jun.
