Solo Farming In The Tower

Chapter 502: Don't Ask, Don't Question, Just Trust-in-Park!

TL: Hanguk

“The Pouch of Abundance that Leah-nim gave me broke.”

[What?! The Pouch of Abundance I gave you broke? How did you manage to break it? Its durability was pretty high, so it shouldn’t have broken under normal circumstances… How could it…]

That pouch had so much divine power infused into it!

Although Leah was internally agitated, she kept her voice as calm as possible so as not to upset Sejun.

“Well… I put this inside, and it broke.”

Swoosh.

As Sejun took out the Seed of Great Magic Stream and relayed exactly what Theo had told him, Leah responded,

[So… you’re saying that after putting the Seed of Magic Stream into the Pouch of Abundance, it multiplied into ten seeds, and then those merged into one, evolving into the Seed of Great Magic Stream?]

“Yes.”

Is that even possible?! Can that really happen?!

Leah looked utterly incredulous.

She knew better than anyone because she had made it herself. The Pouch of Abundance couldn’t replicate a Seed of Great Magic Stream. Absolutely not.

At best, it could duplicate a single Seed of Magic Stream. That was its limit.

‘This is impossible unless a miracle occurred.’

It was something that couldn’t be explained unless a miracle had occurred, just as Leah thought.

And then…

“Meow?”

This miracle was, of course, thanks to Theo, who caused miracles as casually as breathing when it came to matters related to Sejun.

“Leah~nim, that’s why I need a new divine relic. One that’s more expensive and better, and can hold this seed.”

“Puhuhut. That’s right, meow! Leah~nim, you must offer a better divine relic to the great hybrid Chairman Park, meow!”

[Hmm. Sejun, if you asked me to make the Pouch of Abundance again, I could make it 10 times over, but to create a divine relic that can replicate this seed, I’d need to make at least a five-star divine relic… that’s beyond my abilities.]

Leah wore a troubled expression at Sejun’s request.

The number and grade of divine relics a god can create are determined by their divinity.

Currently, Leah’s divinity stood at around 250,000, which allowed her to create up to three divine relics with a limit of two stars (★ ★) in grade.

For reference, the three divine relics Leah had made, The Golden Box of Abundance, The Golden Tree Stump Pot of Abundance, and The Pouch of Abundance, were all in Sejun’s possession.

Now that the Pouch of Abundance was broken, Leah’s divine relics had decreased to two. She could create one new divine relic, but

The problem was the grade.

With Leah’s current divinity, she couldn’t create a five-star divine relic.

In that moment, Sejun became acutely aware of just how absurdly capable Blackie family had been when they gave him a minimum three-star item, even after losing all their strength.

However,

“Five-star grade?”

Isn’t that something our Karurur can make too?

Sejun, who was completely unaware of this, responded.

“A god can’t even do that?”

Even the sunfish fish can make those!

Sejun looked slightly disappointed as he glanced at Leah.

‘I can’t let Trust-in-Park be disappointed!’

I’ll uphold the pride of non-combat gods!

Leah decided to rise to the challenge and meet Sejun’s expectations, even if it meant permanently reducing her divinity.

[Ahem! But who am I? I am none other than Leah, the God of Abundance, who makes the impossible possible! There is nothing impossible for me!]

Trust-in-Park is always right!

Leah mentally chanted this slogan.

“Oh! As expected of Leah~nim! Fighting!!”

As Sejun cheered for Leah,

“Leah~nim, fighting, meow!”

Theo followed Sejun’s lead, raising his front paw to the sky as he cheered for Leah.

[However, there are two conditions.]

“Conditions?”

Do you want me to assign some followers to your achievement monument?

Sejun naturally assumed she was going to bring up something related to a temple.

But instead,

[The first is that I need your divine power stored in Inos. With my divine power alone, I cannot create a five-star divine relic.]

Leah brought up a different topic altogether.

If a god with divine rank was a blacksmith, divine power was like unrefined ore.

To make high-quality relics, a lot of ore was needed.

“What’s the second condition?”

[While making this relic, my divinity will decrease, and the other divine relics will likely disappear. However, you must not be disappointed.]

“Hmm…”

The second condition seemed a bit ambiguous.

“The new divine relic can replicate other seeds too, right?”

Sejun asked to confirm.

[Of course, it’s possible.]

“Got it. But wait, I have divine power?”

Sejun, who hadn’t reached the minimum level of divinity required to use divine power, hadn’t been receiving any from <Inos>. The divine power had been accumulating there instead.

[Yes, didn’t you know? Quite a lot of divine power has accumulated in Inos.]

And Theo also steals from our temple every day…

“Really? Then how much divine power will it take to create this relic?”

[There’s about 900,000 divine power stored in Inos, and I’ll need around 700,000 of that to create a proper relic.]

Normally, it wouldn’t take this much, but because she was forcibly raising the relic’s grade, the amount of divine power consumed was almost doubled.

“Then please use my divine power to create the relic. And if there’s any left, Leah~nim, you can keep it.”

Sejun knew from Leah’s determined expression that she was taking a big risk, so he decided to let her keep any remaining divine power after making the relic. After all, he had no immediate use for divine power.

As the conversation ended,

Oh yes! I get to save my divine power! As expected of Trust-in-Park!

[Then I shall begin crafting the relic!]

Leah, happy to have saved divine power, joyfully drew out Sejun’s accumulated divine power stored in <Inos> and started crafting the new relic.

Woooong.

White lights gathered and formed a lump.

Swish.

Under Leah’s touch, the shape took form. The shape was similar to the broken Pouch of Abundance.

As the divine relic was almost complete,

[Burning 50,000 divinity to increase the relic’s grade.]

[The relic’s grade has increased from 3-star to 4-star.]

[Burning 100,000 divinity to increase the relic’s grade.]

[The relic’s grade has increased from 4-star to 5-star.]

Leah burned her divinity to forge the relic into a 5-star divine relic.

One hour later…

[Huff, huff. It’s done.]

With a voice full of exhaustion, Leah, having poured all her energy and divinity into crafting the relic, handed over a green leather pouch to Sejun.

“Thank you, Leah~nim.”

As Sejun received the relic Leah offered him,

[Then I shall take my leave now. Park Sejun, take care.]

Leah’s presence faded as her descent came to an end.

***

Seed Shop Headquarters.

“Sigh…”

As soon as Leah returned, she let out a deep sigh.

‘Now that my divinity has dropped, I won’t be able to throw my weight around much at the Seed Shop headquarters…’

Leah didn’t particularly like acting bossy, except when shouting “Trust-in-Park”.

‘What if the others start disrespecting me because my divinity has decreased?’

Of course, other non-combat gods followed Leah not because of her abilities, but because they trusted her as a mental and emotional pillar. There was no chance they would belittle her just because her divinity had dropped.

While Leah’s self-esteem took a hit along with her divinity, and she was unnecessarily worrying about trivial things,

[You have achieved the great feat of creation by burning your divinity to craft a divine relic two grades higher than your own capacity.]

[As a reward for this great feat of creation, you have earned the <Title: God Who Burns Divinity>.]

[As a result of <Title: God Who Burns Divinity>, the amount of divinity required when creating divine relics is reduced by 10%.]

[As a reward for your great feat of creation, your divinity has increased by 300,000.]

A message appeared before Leah.

She had burned 150,000 divinity, but gained 300,000?!

“As expected of Trust-in-Park! You had it all planned out!”

Park Sejun must have known this would happen! That I would end up like this!

Leah started to believe that Sejun asking her to create a five-star divine relic was all part of some grand plan.

Of course, it was just Leah’s misunderstanding.

[You have achieved the feat of crafting a five-star divine relic.]

[As a reward for this achievement, you have earned the <Title: God Who Created a Five-Star Relic>.]

[The divine power consumed when crafting relics of five stars or lower is reduced by 10%.]

[As a reward for this achievement, your divinity has increased by 100,000.]

Another set of messages appeared before Leah.

“This was all part of Trust-in-Park’s big plan!”

Thanks to this, Leah’s misunderstanding only deepened.

Don’t Ask, Don’t Question, Just Trust-in-Park!

“Trust-in-Park! Trust-in-Park! Trust-in-Park!”

Leah went out of the house, enthusiastically spreading her newly created slogan to the non-combat gods.

***

79th Floor of the Black Tower.

[Pouch of Abundance Crafted With Utmost Sincerity]

“Oh. I like the name already.”

Sejun checked the options of the divine relic Leah had crafted.

[Pouch of Abundance Crafted With Utmost Sincerity]

→ This is a divine relic imbued with the power of Leah, the God of Abundance.

→ Leah, the God of Abundance, burned her divinity to raise its grade by two levels, creating it with utmost sincerity as a gift for Park Sejun, the Tower Farmer of the Black Tower.

→ The pouch contains three separate pockets inside, allowing you to duplicate three different seeds simultaneously.

→ Place a seed inside and wait for a day, and the seed will multiply into 100. (The duplication quantity and time may vary depending on the seed.)

→ Usage Restriction: Park Sejun, the Tower Farmer of the Black Tower, acknowledged by Leah, the God of Abundance.

→ Creator: Leah, the God of Abundance.

→ Grade: ★★★★★

“Oh. There are three pockets inside?”

When Sejun opened the green pouch, he saw three openings branching out from the center at 120-degree angles.

Tok. Tok. Tok.

Sejun placed three seeds into the three pockets: a Magical Cherry Tomato Seed, a Transcendence Black Bean, and a Seed of Great Magic Stream.

Swish.

[Time until 100 Magical Cherry Tomato Seeds are duplicated: 1 day.]

104.28.193.250

[Time until 15 Transcendence Black Beans (+2) are duplicated: 1 day.]

[Time until 1 Seed of Great Magic Stream is duplicated: 7 days.]

Letters appeared on the side of the pouch.

‘Hehehe. As expected, a five-star relic is really on a different level.’

While Sejun was marveling at the Pouch of Abundance Crafted With Utmost Sincerity,

Growl.

Growl.

Both Sejun’s and Theo’s stomachs growled at the same time.

“Huh?! Why am I so hungry all of a sudden?”

“Chairman Park, I feel strangely hungry too, meow!”

Both Sejun and Theo had already eaten lunch, and it had only been about three hours since they came down.

It was around 4 PM. It wasn’t time to be hungry yet.

At that moment,

[Uh… Sejun-nim, have you come to your senses now?!]

Sparkie asked Sejun.

“Huh? What do you mean, ‘come to my senses’?”

[You two have been standing here for seven days straight.]

“I’ve been standing here for a whole week?!”

“Meow?! Me too, meow?!”

Sejun and Theo were completely bewildered.

In fact, Leah’s relic creation hadn’t taken just one hour, but seven days. However, Sejun and Theo, completely engrossed in watching her craft the relic, hadn’t noticed the passage of time.

“That can’t be…”

Growl.

But first, let’s eat.

Clink.

Sejun hurriedly opened the Void Storage to take out something to eat,

Kihihit. Kking!

[Hehe. Eating and sleeping every day is the best!]

Inside, the Blackie Family, now plump like pigs, were rolling around on the floor, which had become a complete mess.

During the week Sejun was gone, they had been partying in the Void Storage, eating and playing to their heart’s content.

These little rascals…

Too exhausted to scold them, Sejun and Theo quickly ate some jerky and Churu to fill their stomachs.

***

99th Floor of the Black Tower.

Kueng! Kueng!

[Dad hasn’t come home for a whole week! Cuengi is going to look for him!]

Dad and Big Brother must be in danger! Cuengi will go rescue them!

Having stayed awake for seven days straight waiting for Sejun to return, Cuengi slung his lunch bag over his shoulder and set off to find Sejun.
