Solo Farming In The Tower

TL: Hanguk

The underground of the 94th floor of the Black Tower.

Swoosh.

With a flash of bright light, Iona appeared.

“Kyoot? Where is this?”

Iona looked around in surprise.

A massive space. Scattered all around were immense amounts of gold and treasures.

“Kyoo-kyoo-kyoo-So much has been stolen.”

Iona grew furious at the sight of all the gold and treasures.

She thought she’d only have to deal with Dev’s matter, but there was a mountain of other stolen goods here as well.

Theo-nim, it’ll be difficult to go see you.

It seemed that dealing with everything was going to take more time than expected.

“Kyoo-kyoo-kyoo-But why are these things here?”

Iona looked curiously at the stones and trees scattered around the treasure.

These were completely worthless stones and trees, and yet they were mixed in with the treasures, placed here and there.

Now that she looked closely, something seemed off.

The treasures weren’t gathered in one place, but were scattered across various locations. The cut surfaces of the rocks and trees were clean, as if entire chunks of space had been carved out.

Upon closer inspection, even the color of the soil was different, and the heights varied greatly.

“Kyoo-kyoo-kyoo-What’s going on?”

Just as Iona was starting to feel something was strange,

-I…Iona, we need to get out of here right now!

Nightmare, the Demon King of Nightmares, spoke in a terrified voice.

“Kyoot? Why? Do you know something about this place?”

-We’ll be swallowed if we stay here!

“Kyoot? Swallowed?”

Iona tilted her head, not fully understanding Nightmare’s warning.

“Kyoot?!”

Suddenly, a shadow formed over Iona’s head as a giant mass of earth began to fall.

“Power of gravity, defy the natural laws at my command. Reverse Gravity.”

With a hurried cast of her anti-gravity spell, Iona managed to stop the falling earth.

“Fly.”

Float.

As she rose above the floating ground, she observed,

“Kyoo-kyoo-kyoo-this time it’s a lake.”

On the floating mass of land was a lake, as if someone had teleported an entire lake into this space.

At that moment,

-Iona! We need to get out quickly! This is Mobius’s mouth!

Nightmare, now fully convinced by the recent events, urgently pressed Iona to leave.

“Kyoot?! Mobius?!”

-Yes! The Silent Plunderer, White Whale Mobius! Get out of here quickly!

“Alright.”

Though she thought Nightmare was overreacting, Iona decided there must be a reason for concern.

Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Guess I’ll stop by to see Theo~nim for a moment.

Smiling at the thought of going to see Theo, she began to cast a teleportation spell to head to where he was.

Koooooo.

With a strange sound, the edge of the space where Iona was opened up and the land began to be swallowed into Mobius’s throat.

The throat sucked in everything. Even magic power.

“Kyoo-kyoo-kyoo-kyoo-My magic isn’t working!”

Iona was flustered as the magic, which had always come to her as naturally as breathing, suddenly wouldn’t activate.

Suddenly her connection to the five magic streams was cut off, and even the magic power in her body was forcibly sucked into the throat the moment she tried to release it externally.

“Kyoot!”

Having no other choice, Iona desperately ran in the opposite direction of the throat to avoid being swallowed.

But the space to escape to was limited.

Kyoo… If I knew this would happen, I should’ve met Theo~nim first…

Standing at the edge of the land, Iona regretted not meeting Theo first, as she waited helplessly for her death.

Just as Iona was about to be swallowed by Mobius’s throat,

BOOM!

“Meow!”

With an explosion, Theo appeared by breaking through Mobius’s mouth.

“Kyoot?! Theo~nim?!”

“Puhuhut. That’s right, meow! It’s me, meow!”

Theo quickly grabbed Iona who was about to be swallowed and tried to exit through the hole he made while stepping on air, but

Meow?! It’s gone, meow!

But the hole Theo had created had already disappeared. In that brief moment, the flesh had regenerated, sealing the hole shut.

Meanwhile, Mobius’s throat began to pull at Theo’s mana as well.

However, Theo had the ultimate movement technique, Meow-meow-step, a near-divine ability that ensured his return to Sejun no matter what.

Meow-meow-step!

Whoosh.

With a swift motion, Theo safely escaped from Mobius’s mouth, carrying Iona with him.

***

[Silent Plunderer, White Whale Mobius]

“Huh?! Why is there a whale here?”

Aren’t whales supposed to live in the sea?

Sejun, who had followed Theo underground, was astonished when he discovered a massive white whale, over 100 meters long, floating in a massive underground lake.

Kueng?!

[Dad, what’s a whale?]

“Uh…”

How should I explain this?

“A really big fish?”

Kueng?! Kueng!

[Then can we eat it?! Big bro would love it if we grilled that!]

“Is it possible to eat it?”

Theo would be happy if I grilled that for him.

As Sejun imagined Theo happily devouring an ultra-giant grilled fish,

Kking?!

[That guy?!]

Suddenly, Blackie, who had been dozing off in Sejun’s warmth, sensed a fragment of its core and awoke, spotting Mobius.

Mobius was one of the five beings Blackie had failed to kill and had sealed away. Using its power of plunder, Mobius could randomly teleport entire chunks of land into its mouth.

Once its mouth was filled with land through its power, it would swallow everything.

And it grew and regenerated by digesting the land and everything on it. Even souls.

No matter how many times it was killed, Mobius revived, having consumed so much. In the end, Blackie resorted to swallowing Mobius whole as a last-ditch effort.

And then, for decades, Blackie suffered from indigestion.

Recalling that time, Blackie felt his stomach churn again.

Kihihit! Kking!

[Hehe! But this time, things are different!]

We’re the Blackie Family!

Even if Mobius could infinitely regenerate souls, there was no way it could withstand a group beating from all eight former Apostles of Destruction.

Kking!

[Guys, wake up!]

With that, Blackie began waking up his subordinates for revenge.

Swoosh.

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, I’m back, meow!”

Theo, who had saved Iona, clung onto Sejun’s knee.

Kyurorong.

Carrying the exhausted Iona, who was still clinging tightly to Theo’s tail even while asleep.

“Chairman Park, please look after Iona, meow!”

Theo entrusted Iona to Sejun.

“Sure, but what are you going to do?”

“I’ll teach it a lesson for bullying Iona, meow!”

He flew back towards Mobius to get revenge for Iona.

At that moment,

-I sense it! The presence of that ignorant wolf who once swallowed me!

Mobius, who had been still, suddenly began moving after sensing of Blackie’s energy through the breathing holes on its back.

Kking?!

[Did you just call the great Blackie ignorant?!]

Blackie barked in rage at Mobius.

Swoooosh.

At the same time, a blue wave-like energy resembling waves began to spread from Mobius’s body.

Kueng!

Except for Cuengi, who was faintly surrounded by a dark red energy, everyone else was engulfed by Mobius’s blue energy and fainted.

***

“Hmm… Where is this?”

Sejun looked around as he regained consciousness.

“Great Hybrid Chairman Park, are you alright, meow?!”

Theo, still hanging onto Sejun’s knee, asked.

“Yeah, I think so. But where are we? Everything suddenly went dark…”

As Sejun looked around again,

“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Sejun~nim, are you alright?”

A pure white hamster, about 15 meters in size, spoke to Sejun.

“Huh?!”

Among the hamsters I know, only Iona makes ‘kyoot kyoot kyoot’ sounds and is white…

“Could it be… Iona?”

Sejun asked cautiously toward the giant hamster.

“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Yes!”

Iona answered with a bright smile.

“Tsk. Is this your first time in a mental world? Why are you so surprised?”

A woman, standing next to Iona and about 5 meters taller than her, clicked her tongue and looked at Sejun with disdain.

So this is a mental world?

Thanks to that, Sejun realized why Iona was bigger than him here.

But who’s this acting so familiar with me?

The woman had pale skin, red hair with horns on both sides of her head. She was someone Sejun had never seen before.

“Um… who are you?”

Sejun asked, looking at the woman.

“I’m Nightmare! The one you tried to annihilate!”

Nightmare, still holding a grudge against Sejun, replied in a sharp tone.

Surrounded by strong allies, Sejun no longer felt the fear like before.

“Ah, so you have a form here in the mental world.”

But why is she speaking informally? She used to call me ‘Sejun-nim’ and speak respectfully…

As Sejun began to feel annoyed and was about to question Nightmare,

“Kyoo-kyoo! Nightmare, what’s with your tone towards Sejun-nim?!”

Iona scolded Nightmare, beating Sejun to the punch.

“That’s right, meow! Nightmare, you’re being rude, meow! Super-giant Chairman Park, give her a good scolding, meow!”

Theo also joined in, angry at Nightmare.

And then,

Thud.

A massive pillar behind Sejun started to move.

Grab.

Suddenly, the sky darkened as a giant hand appeared, grabbing Nightmare.

“Aaagh! I’m sorryyyy!”

Nightmare was lifted up and shaken out like a rag.

‘What?’

That Park Sejun guy is clearly over there but…?

Nightmare was confused seeing two Sejuns.

“Huh?!”

That’s me?!

Sejun was just as equally confused.

“Puhuhut. Great Hybrid Chairman Park, that’s Super-giant Chairman Park protecting my mental world, meow!”

Theo proudly introduced the over 100m tall Super-giant Chairman Park to Sejun.

“Ah…”

It felt strange that only Theo was small… So, he has been growing that kind of thing in his mental world all along.

As Sejun tried to wrap his head around this incredibly bizarre mental world,

Thud. Thud.

“Grrrr. Butler, there’s no time for this! Get on, quickly!”

A giant wolf crouched down in front of Sejun, lowering its body.

“…Is that you, Blackie?”

“Of course, it’s me! How could you not recognize the great Blackie?!”

Blackie got angry at Sejun’s cautious attitude, feeling hurt.

“No, of course, I recognize you. It’s just… you’ve gotten a lot bigger.”

As Sejun got on Blackie’s head along with Theo, Iona, and Nightmare

“Kuhuhu… How’s this? Impressive, right?! This is my true form!”

Thinking that Sejun had complimented him, Blackie stood tall, puffing up in pride.

“Where’s that damned wolf?!”

Thud! Thud!

Along with an angry voice, a giant whale with arms and legs charged towards them.

“Grrrr! Butler, hold on tight! Everyone, let’s show them the power of the Blackie Family!”

“Yes!”

Blackie and the seven former Apostles of Destruction charged toward Mobius.

Thud! Thud!

Behind them, Super-giant Chairman Park also joined the charge.

At that moment,

Boom! Boom!

For some unknown reason, Super-giant Chairman Park began growing even larger as it ran.

The reason?

“Meow meow meow.”

It was because of Theo, who was hugging Sejun’s knee.

Theo, who was drawing infinite energy through his connection to the real Sejun, was in turn passing that energy to Super-giant Chairman Park, making it even stronger.

Super-giant Chairman Park was evolving once again.

Into Ultra-super-giant Chairman Park.

A short while later,

“Isn’t it cheating to fight 9 against 1?! You unfair wolf!”

“What?! Can’t you even count?! There’s eight of us! And how dare you call the great Blackie an unfair wolf?! If it’s unfair, go get some reinforcements yourself!”

Boom!

As Mobius was being relentlessly attacked by the Blackie Family, the now gigantic Ultra-super-giant Chairman Park slammed a colossal fist down on Mobius’s head.

[You have achieved the great feat of creation for annihilating the immortal Silent Plunderer, White Whale Mobius.]

[As a reward for this great feat of creation, you have obtained the <Title: Human and Cat Who Destroyed Immortality>.]

[Through the effect of <Title: Human and Cat Who Destroyed Immortality>, you become stronger when fighting immortal beings together.]

Sejun and Theo shared the final blow and the achievement.

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, let’s take that, meow!”

Theo pointed to the two orbs that appeared in the spot where Mobius had perished.

A blue orb and a black orb.

[Silent Plunderer, White Whale Mobius’s Power Stone: Absolute Smell]

[Silent Plunderer, White Whale Mobius’s Power Stone: Plunder]

These were power stones containing the core powers that represented Mobius.

Grab.

As Sejun collected the power stones, the mental world began to rapidly shrink.

Before long, Sejun’s vision turned dark again.

And then,

…Aang!

“Hm?”

Sejun regained his senses back in reality.

104.28.193.250

Kueng?! Kueng!

[What did you do to Cuengi’s dad! Big bro! Sis! And younger siblings?! Wake them up quickly!]

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Sejun spotted Super-giant Cuengi violently swinging Mobius around by its tail.
