Episode 143 eat popcorn
“I want it!”
Urchi answered as if fascinated, looking at the black dragon tattoo on Theo’s sole.
Proof that you are a subordinate of the great black dragon. To be able to have that would be the glory of the family, and indeed of the entire race.
And if he can accomplish that, he will become a great king who will remain in the history of the Black Orc tribe long into the future.
“Then listen carefully to what I say from now on!”
Theo said arrogantly, putting his hands on his hips. If he listened carefully to what he said, he planned to ask Sejun later to bring him one of the Kaiser’s scales.
“Of course! “Whatever the Great Black Dragon’s servants say, we just follow!”
“No!”
“yes?!”
“Listen carefully! “I am Theo Park, the deadly yellow cat under the great black dragon. Nyan!”
“ah! yes “Deadly cat Theo Park, servant of the great black dragon!”
“Fuhuhuhu. “That’s it!”
Theo felt very good having someone else hear his introduction.
“Deadly cat Theo Park, servant of the great black dragon! Please grant us the honor of wearing the badge of the great black dragon!”
“Nyan?! “How do you use the token?”
“We have a way. Luken!”
Urchi shouted,
“Yes!”
A huge black orc came in. In his hand he held a staff decorated with a skull.
“Our Black Orc shaman, Luken, will copy the token on the sole of the foot of the deadly cat Theo Park, a subordinate of the great black dragon.”
“Like a copy?”
“yes! “There will be no harm to the mark of the deadly cat Theo Park, servant of the great black dragon.”
“Then it’s good!”
“thank you! “Deadly cat Theo Park, servant of the great black dragon!”
“Urchi, from now on, just call me by my first name.”
Theo himself felt uncomfortable when the modifier became too long.
“yes! “Mr. Theo!”
“Where will you engrave Urchi’s badge?”
Luken asked Urchi.
“The Great Black Dragon is the Supreme Being! It is impossible for me to be above Him! “I will engrave a token on the top of my head!”
“yes! All right. Then please place the token on your head!”
“i get it!”
thud!
Urchi bowed down before Theo.
“Theo, please place a token on the top of my head!”
“Like this?!”
chuck.
At Urchi’s request, Theo placed the sole of his tattooed foot on Urchi’s head. It ended up being a strange picture that looked like a bully was stepping on the head of a person who was lying down and praying.
“Please stay like that for a moment!”
Thump! Thump!
Luken pounded the ground with his staff and used a spell
.
Red light flowed from between Theo’s soles and the top of Urchi’s head.
“It’s done!”
“Thank you for your effort. “Mr. Theo!”
“Good job Urchi too!”
Theo responded to Urchi’s words without changing his posture.
“······You can take it off now.”
“I understand!”
Only then did Theo lift the sole of his foot from the top of Urchi’s head. Then, a great black dragon tattoo was revealed, properly engraved on the top of Urchi’s head.
Then
“Nyan?!”
Theo discovers that other things have been copied as well. Round shapes wrapped around the black dragon tattoo. The shape of Theo’s sole was engraved on the top of Urchi’s head along with the black dragon tattoo.
However,
“From now on, Luken, I will make this token the flag of our Black Oak Kingdom!”
“yes! All right!”
Black Orcs who think that’s what the sign of the great black dragon originally looked like.
‘It’s not my fault!’
Theo closed his mouth quietly. The picture engraved with the sign of the great black dragon and Theo’s footprints became the flag of the new Black Oak Kingdom.
***
Late night in the cave on the 99th floor of the tower.
Thump, thump.
I could hear the sound of firewood burning. And Sejun and the flames surrounding the bonfire are like golden bats.
“So the man opened the lid just in case…”
gulp.
Everyone was swallowing their saliva and concentrating on what Sejun was saying.
“Another dumpling has disappeared!”
Sejun was playing around the bonfire and telling scary stories.
Kueng!!!
[Dad, I’m scared!!!]
Kueng snuggled up next to Sejun due to the mysterious phenomenon of food disappearing even though he hadn’t eaten it. There was nothing more terrifying to Kuengi than food disappearing for no reason.
Then it
growled.
A rumbling sound was heard from Kuengi’s stomach.
Kueng!
[I’m hungry now that we’re talking about food!]
The scared expression from before disappeared and Kueng looked at Sejun with a pitiful expression. Normally I have to go to bed early and wake up early, but today is a special situation. Late night snacks required permission from mom or dad.
“Then shall we have some popcorn?”
Kueng!
[I’m so excited!]
Kueng cheered when Sejun said he didn’t know what popcorn was, but would eat it anyway.
“wait for a sec.”
Sejun got up and placed two wide pots made from the backs of fire ant workers on the bonfire.
And
roar.
Red corn kernels were poured into two pots. It was corn with explosive health that was removed before planting to be eaten later.
After a while
, crackle. crackle.
The water vapor created inside the corn kernels that absorbed the hot heat burst the corn kernels and began to escape. As a result, the inside of the two pots soon became filled with white snowflakes.
“First, make salt-flavored popcorn…”
Sejun added salt to one of the two pots full of popcorn and mixed it evenly.
And
“Come on. here.”
Sejun rolled up the pie leaves, made them into ice cream cones, and put popcorn inside. Didn’t give much. Enough to whet your appetite.
Wow.
Kueng!
[It’s delicious!]
(It’s delicious!)
“Beep!”
The animals became addicted to the salty taste and started eating popcorn without hesitation.
Meanwhile
, slurp, slurp.
Sejun took out a new pot, put water and honey together, and began to simmer.
Kueng!
Kueng looked anxiously at the honey turning brown. If you’re going to burn that much honey, I want to eat it!
“It’s not burning. hang on.”
Once the honey had boiled down to a certain degree, Sejun poured unseasoned popcorn on top and stirred vigorously to mix the honey evenly with the popcorn to make honey popcorn.
Kueng?
[Not there yet?]
After eating all the popcorn that Sejun gave her, Kueng, who was completely absorbed in the scent of honey emanating from the pot, walked around the pot where the honey popcorn was being made, cheering on Sejun.
“Kueng wait.”
When Sejun spoke sternly to Kueng, who was walking around a hot fire,
Kueng!
[Kueng is waiting at his seat!]
Just as he had learned as a child, Kueng hurriedly sat down in his seat and patiently waited for his food.
‘Almost done.’
“Use Iona’s drying magic lightly.”
Sejun looked at the popcorn mixed well with honey and asked Iona to do a magic trick to remove the moisture from the popcorn in the two pots. Popcorn is not only delicious, but its texture is also very important.
“Pfft. yes dry!”
Iona hurriedly used drying magic. Iona also wanted to eat popcorn quickly because of the sweet taste that comes from it.
When the honey popcorn was finished,
“Eat it the way you want to eat it.”
Sejun let the animals eat whatever they wanted between salt-flavored popcorn and honey popcorn and brought some popcorn himself.
“Hehehe. “I’m half and half.”
Sejun put half of the salt-flavored popcorn and half of the honey popcorn into a leaf cone cup, closed the mouth, and shook it to mix.
And then
boom.
I picked up a handful of popcorn and popped it into my mouth.
Wow.
‘Keuu! This is it!’
Sejun shivered at the taste he felt in his mouth. Each time you chew, you alternate between salt-flavored popcorn and honey popcorn, creating a sweet-salty-sweet-salty combination of flavors that you’ll never get tired of.
Plus,
ah, ah, ah, ah.
As the honey hardens, the crunchy texture of honey popcorn you can feel every time you chew the popcorn adds to the fun of eating it.
Kueng?
Kueng, who was focusing on honey popcorn, saw Sejun eating it and ate some popcorn himself. If he followed Sejun, he would always be successful. Kueng completely trusted Sejun.
And
Kueng!
[It’s delicious!]
This time too, faith was rewarded.
Kueng!
Wow. Wow.
Kueng held salt popcorn in one hand and honey popcorn in the other and started eating wagu wagu in turns.
Just like that, the 295th night of the shipwreck passed.
***
-Find and protect the golden bat! certainly!
Taejun Han received a call from Theo and instructed his subordinates to find the golden bat. He was moving quickly towards the tower when he heard Theo was looking for him.
Then,
wow.
The secretary’s smartphone started ringing.
“hello. okay? really? “Send me the link right away.”
Pop.
The secretary hung up.
And
“The president of the association says he found the golden bat.”
“okay? how?”
“Look at this.”
The secretary played Tablin’s video. And something like that was broadcast in the world edited by Bae Jeong-ho.
“Hmm… it’s already been broadcast. “Where is it?”
“It’s the Halla Building next to our association.”
“The building next door? Was it that close? How much was the Halla Building?”
“Well… the original market price is about 200 billion won, but I think the price can be reduced a lot because of the broadcast saying there are bats in the building.”
“Buy it now.”
“yes!”
Taejun had previously asked Theo to find out the building where the golden bat appears, so he planned to give it to Theo as a gift.
‘Hehehe. ‘I guess I’ll have to ask you a favor with this.’
At that time, the owner of Halla Building urgently wanted to sell the building, so Han Tae-jun was able to enter the tower with the contract for the building purchased in Se-jun’s name.
***
“eww······.”
When Sejun woke up in the morning, the surroundings were a mess. The popcorn that spilled from yesterday’s meal is
scattered on the floor.
Barrow Long.
Kueng was sleeping in a pot, holding a golden bat. Iona woke up early and went to check the construction site of the magic tower.
[Master, are you awake?]
“Yes.”
Fireworks said good morning to Sejun, who was looking around.
“You slept well too, Fireworks, right?”
[yes. It was nice that the night wasn’t quiet last night!]
I guess our flame has been lonely all this time? Sejun thought that he would have to play in the cave more often from now on.
And then he went out, leaving Kueng and the golden bat still sleeping.
Then
keek!
A mushroom ant approached Sejun majestically.
“Hehehe. Welcome.”
When a mushroom ant is this confident, it usually has elixir mushrooms growing on its back, so Sejun welcomed the mushroom ant warmly.
Wow!
A mushroom ant shows its back to Sejun’s hospitality. As Sejun expected, there was only one elixir mushroom on the mushroom ant’s back. It was a black, stone-like mushroom I had never seen before.
“It was hard raising you.”
Sejun patted the mushroom ant’s back and praised it.
And
tap.
I picked mushrooms.
[Advanced elixir: Black truffles have been harvested.]
[Job experience increases slightly.]
[Harvest Lv. The skill level of 6 increases slightly.]
[250 experience points have been obtained.]
“Huh?! Black truffle?”
It was a mushroom I had only heard of on Earth.
“Isn’t this very expensive?”
Sejun hurriedly checked the options.
[Advanced Elixir: Black Truffle]
The black truffle grown by the top farmer’s peasant mushroom ants absorbed all the surrounding nutrients alone for a long time and grew into an elixir.
It boasts an intense scent.
All stats +3 when consumed
Grower: Top Farmer Park Se-jun’s Peasant Mushroom Ants
Shelf life: 150 days
Grade: C+
“Oh!”
It was an advanced elixir that increased all stats by 3.
‘Eat it and destroy it before it wakes up!’
Mumbling.
Sejun quickly put the black truffle in his mouth and chewed it. It was obvious that Kueng would ask for it if he saw it. I have to live too! I couldn’t continue to be treated as the weakest.
[Advanced Elixir: Black Truffle has been consumed.]
[All stats increase by 3.]
“Good.”
Sejun, stronger than he was yesterday, started the morning in a good mood. Kueng
then
!
[Good morning!]
Kueng woke up hungry and said good morning cheerfully.
Sniff.
Kueng! Kueng?!
[Dad, your breath smells good! Did you eat something alone?!]
Kueng, who was approaching Sejun, started sniffing around Sejun’s mouth and realized like a ghost that Sejun had eaten something alone. The problem was that I ate truffles, which are famous for their strong scent.
“uh?! It’s not! “I didn’t eat anything?!”
Sejun hurriedly covered his mouth to prevent the scent from spreading, but
kueng?! kueng!!!
[But why did you cover your mouth?! Dad said he was a bad guy if he lied, but now he’s lying!!!]
That only heightened Kkueng’s suspicions.
“No. Dad, you didn’t eat anything?”
The more he denied it, the stronger the truffle scent spread from his mouth, and he confessed that he ate it alone.
