Episode 62. blossoming of talent
“Get a stamp!”
“Hehe. What should I do if they hand out a blank contract like that without warning?”
“Old man. I said I would repay the debt. That means I have to put my stamp on it!”
Clearly, Theo was wearing a raw suit, but he had a strange persuasive power.
“Then let’s do it like this.”
As the standoff dragged on, Taejun Han made a new suggestion.
“What?”
“I’ll grant you 3 favors.”
“Like 3 favors.” ?”
Theo began to write down what Taejun Han said in the contract.
-Eul grants A’s request 5 times.
[A: Theo]
[Eul: Taejun Han]
“Now, take it!”
Theo said 5, which looks similar to 3. I wrote it down,
but
“Hehehe.” Isn’t this right?”
The other party is the president of the Korean Awakened Association, who signs dozens of documents a day. Changing 3 to 5 was a too shallow number that could not be fooled even if you were fooled. Taejun Han reads the contents of the contract written by Theo. Modified.
-Party B grants A’s request 3 times.
-Party A cannot ask B for unreasonable things.
-Party B can reject A’s request 3 times.
“That’s good!”
Theo hurries to the 99th floor of the tower. Since I had to move up, I decided to end the contract. The contract with Taejun Han was not in the original plan. There was no harm in giving up a little.
Kuuk.
Theo put his stamp on the contract and handed it to Taejun Han.
“Hehehehe.” .”
Han Tae-jun, who accepted the contract, burst into laughter. In the meantime, Theo changed 3 back to 5.
‘What a bold cat.’
But I didn’t feel bad at all. When I was looking at Theo, I felt something strange.
Han Tae-jun was gradually falling for Theo’s charm. Contrary to his appearance, he was weak to cute things.
‘This might be fate, too.’
Kuuk.
Taejun Han stamped the contract without modifying it.
“Good!” Now, do me a favor!”
“Already?”
“Yes!”
“What is it?”
“There are incompetent people who signed a contract with me on the 38th floor of the tower! Please make those humans as competent as old humans.”
Theo decided to entrust the 5 hunters on the 38th floor of the tower, who did not make much money, to Taejun Han.
“Cancer. I am capable. Good.”
Feeling good at Theo’s recognition, Taejun Han readily agreed.
“These are the guys.”
Theo held out a contract with the names of five hunters written on it.
“Janglin?”
Taejun Han found a familiar name on the contract. Awakening. It was a name I had heard before while working as the president of the association.
‘Could it be Heilangdan with 5 members?’
The Heilangdan, led by Janglin, are a group of robbers who steal money from hunters, and they are being watched closely because there is no evidence yet.
“What about these guys?”
“They’re paying for my life by attacking me!”
“Okay. Leave it to me. I will make you a competent human being.”
“I understand. See you later!”
Theo said hello to Taejun Han and hurried up to the 99th floor of the tower.
And when Theo left, Taejun Han went to find his first student.
“Sihyuk. Let’s go to the 38th floor of the tower.”
“Yes?”
“Hehehe. There are people who need to be guided to the right path.”
That’s how the fate of Heukrangdan was decided.

“Ah, I’m full.”
Sejun looked satisfied after eating the red locust soup. It’s the same for other animals.
Kuuuuung!
In particular, the mother Crimson Giant Bear was satisfied with the feeling of fullness in her stomach for the first time in a long time and went out on patrol to help her digest food
. “We’ll just go down here.”
The silver wolves put the blade leaves and the remaining red locust soup into a small pot, placed it on a cart, and went down the tower. “
Let
’s do the dishes first.”
Sejun began to clean the large pot with the pie leaves. Soup for Eileen. It was to make a new one.
After the animals ate one or two more bowls, there was not much soup left.
“If this happens, Eileen will get angry…”
When Sejun was worried,
“Ah!”
A new dish for Eileen appeared in my head.
So I gave the remaining soup to the wolves and started making a new soup.
Fortunately, the wolves had a lot of red locust meat that they had prepared, so all I had to do was add the ingredients and boil it.
“Now I have to drink coffee. ”
Sejun, who had made a fresh batch of red locust soup, took a break and got some coffee to drink. When he went outside,
bab…
bab…
Black Rabbit and Bunny came up to Sejun to take a nap.
And blah
blah blah
. They fell
on Sejun’s lap. He sat on his back and started taking a nap.
“Making dark clouds.”
Sejun placed his head on Kuengi’s soft stomach and made a shadow out of the dark clouds. These days, his skill level was not improving with moving the dark clouds, so he was trying something else.
Sejun I thought of removing a part of this dark cloud and creating a new dark cloud above Kueng’s head.
Cloudy.
The black smoke from the main dark cloud created a new dark cloud and then dispersed and merged into the main body.
“It doesn’t work as expected.”
So Sejun said . While attempting to separate the dark clouds, the skill
proficiency of [<Creating Dark Clouds> increases slightly.]
The skill proficiency increased little by little. Separating the dark clouds was not difficult due to the rapidly increasing proficiency even if it failed.
At that time ,
[the tower manager turned himself into a Red Locust. He says he wants to try the soup he made.]
[The tower manager asks where my soup is.]
[The tower manager quickly wipes the saliva from his mouth.]
As Sejun expected, Eileen starts looking for the red locust soup. “That’s…still boiling?”
[The tower manager says that he helped Mama Bear and the Owl King by waking them up, but it’s too much.] [The tower manager is upset, asking
how
he could do this to himself.]
[Top ‘s manager is upset that you treat him like a cold shoulder.]
“That’s not it! Eileen, I was making soup just for you.”
[……]
These days, Eileen has been suddenly losing her answer more often.
Sejun played with dark clouds throughout the break and then started his afternoon work.
There was nothing special about the afternoon work. There were none. Harvesting cherry tomatoes, cutting green onion leaves, dividing green onions. But the field grew larger, and this alone took the whole afternoon.
So, the soup was completed while Sejun worked.
“Let’s take a look?”
Sejun opened the lid and
[the first in the tower. The achievement of making Combat Rations – Red Locust Cherry Tomato Soup has been achieved.]
[The recipe for Combat Rations – Red Locust Cherry Tomato Soup is registered at Cooking Lv. 3.]
[The mastery of Cooking Lv. 3 increases significantly.]
“As expected…”
Sejun smiled after checking the cooking options.
For Eileen, who prefers magical cherry tomatoes, he added cherry tomatoes instead of potatoes, and as expected, his magical power increased instead of his strength.
“Take the soup, Eileen.”
Sejun said, Eileen. ***
[Top Farmer Park Se-jun says that’s not true.]
[
Top Farmer Park Se-jun says he’s making soup just for you, Eileen.]
Aileen was startled by Se-jun’s sudden confession(?) and took her hand away from the crystal ball. .
And then,
“Soup just for me?”
I started thinking about Sejun’s words.
“Kuhihihi! What~! This amazing human being~”
“Hehehe. There’s nothing I can’t say!”
“Hehehe…”
Aileen couldn’t talk to Sejun for a while because she was laughing so hard.
When Eileen calmed down like that ,
[Top Farmer Park Sejun tells Eileen to take the soup. ]
“An amazing human has finished my soup!”
Boom.
Eileen hurriedly took out her huge rice bowl and gave Sejun the quest. The bowl was almost the size of a children’s pool.
After a while,
red soup was in Eileen’s bowl. It was full. Sejun gave Eileen all the soup in three large pots to help her measure her portion size.
“Wow!”
The scent of cherry tomatoes coming through her nose stimulated Eileen’s appetite.
Slurp.
Eileen opened the bowl. I picked it up and drank the soup.
Gulp. Gulp.
“Kaaah!” It’s delicious…but it’s hot.”
But
“Heeheehee. “You’re a hot human being.”
Eileen’s mood improved as she thought that the heat of the soup was Sejun’s heart thinking of herself in the soup.
When Eileen put down her bowl after one-shotting the soup,
[Battle Rations – Red Locust] You have consumed the correct amount of cherry tomato soup.]
[Magic power increases by 7.1 for 30 minutes.]
[Satisfaction is maintained for 3 hours.]
Magic power has increased significantly.
“An extraordinary human being…”
Eileen is impressed by Sejun’s cooking. Boom
. Boom. Boom. Boom.
The Dragon Heart began to beat stronger and faster than before.
My heart was pounding.
Her heart was beating just as much, but Eileen, who was concentrating on the Dragon Heart’s beating, thought it was the Dragon Heart’s beating as well.
“Extraordinary . I need to give a reward to a human.”
Feeling better, Eileen decided to give Sejun a new reward. She thought she could give a decent reward based on her accumulated magic power and Sejun’s contribution. Of course, Sejun’s contribution was overwhelmingly high.
* **
Bang?!
Kueng?!
Black Rabbit and Kueng protested to Sejun as they looked at the empty pot. What about our soup?!
The smell of soup spread everywhere, so Black Rabbit and Kueng thought they would eat soup for dinner too. When grilled fish and steamed potatoes came out for dinner, I was very disappointed.
“I’ll make it for you tomorrow.”
Bang!
Bang!
When Sejun was making a promise, even putting his little finger on the line to appease the black rabbit and Kueng,
[a quest occurs.]
[ Quest: Treat Eileen with dried roasted sweet potatoes.]
Reward: 1 talent blooms.
When rejected: Heh! If you refuse, you will only lose!
“No…”
To Eileen, who asks for dried sweet potatoes when she is in a lot of trouble because of the soup. Sejun was about to get angry.
“Huh?”
Sejun rubbed his eyes and checked the quest’s reward.
“Blooming one talent? Here it is! Eileen!”
Sejun’s attitude changed in an instant. It is really difficult for talent to blossom. To give such a flowering of talent as a reward!
Sejun offered an entire basket full of dried roasted sweet potatoes.
And
[You have completed the quest.]
[1 talent will bloom as a reward for completing the quest]
[Talent: Landlord awakens.]
“Landlord?”
We took a look at Sejun’s newly blossomed talent.
[Talent: Landowner]
– This is an acquired talent that only farmers with large farms can have.
-You can designate up to 30 tenant farmers.
-Peanuts can use the landowner’s job skills. (When a peasant uses the landowner’s skills, the landowner receives 1% compensation.) -Talent
grows as the size of the farm increases.
“1% compensation?”
The explanation was vague.
“In cases like this, you just have to do it yourself.”
Sejun designated Black Rabbit and Kueng as tenant farmers.
[Two tenant farmers were designated.]
“Black Rabbit Kueng, go and pick some cherry tomatoes.”
Bap!
Kueng!
At Sejun’s instructions, Black Rabbit and Kueng picked cherry tomatoes. I ran to pick them.
And after a while,
[The peasant harvested 5 cherry tomatoes using Harvesting Lv. 4.]
[The landowner receives 1% compensation.]
[The landowner’s job experience increases slightly.]
[ The landowner’s harvesting Lv. 4 mastery increases slightly.]
[The landowner’s experience increases by 1.5.]
…
..
.
Messages began to appear as the black rabbit and Kuengi were harvesting cherry tomatoes.
” “Ah.”
Looking at the message, Sejun could see what the 1% reward was.
“That’s 1% of what I get when I use the skill myself.”
If you do this, the field will expand and even if you can’t harvest it yourself, you can get a little bit of compensation through the reward. However, you can gain job experience, etc. It
may not be of much help now, but it was a talent that would be of great help later as the land expands.
‘You said talent grows as the farm grows, right?’
It’s about quantity! Sejun worked hard to plant cherry tomato seeds until he went to bed.
But the next morning,
crack, crack.
Small twig scouts took a detour to the east and invaded again, trampling on the cherry tomato field where Sejun had sown the seeds.
