Episode 17 Decide.
Theo sold out the product and worked hard without stopping.
But
wham! wham!
The young poisonous bees pulled out their stingers and surrounded Theo. Since Theo was not present when the young poisonous bees were born, they naturally regard Theo as their enemy.
“Don’t do this. We’re on the same side. Sejun, tell the poisonous bees not to attack you!”
Theo squatted down, covering his head with his front paws, and asked Sejun for help.
“It’s okay. They’re our family.”
Wham wham.
At Sejun’s words, the young poisonous bees inserted their stingers and began sucking honey from the cherry tomato flowers again.
“Phew. Thank you, Sejun.”
“What? Sejun hyung?”
“Why are you like that? Aren’t we family?”
“How does this fit into the temple theme?!”
Sejun immediately retaliated by lightly pinching Theo’s cheek with both hands as he tried to match him.
Mulkyung.
“Ack! It hurts! I’m sorry!”
Even though he wasn’t pinched very hard, Theo started screaming.
‘It’s a shame.’
Sejun’s hand grabbed Theo’s soft cheek and stretched it harder.
To be honest, I needed a reason to hold on to it more than being embarrassed. I thought it might be like cheese, but it was delicious to touch the cheeks stretching out like cheese.
‘Hehehe, it feels good.’
no! Now is the time to get angry.
Sejun composed himself, barely letting go of the magical power that was making his heart relax. He held the corner of his mouth that was about to rise and made a stern face again.
“Temple, let’s settle the settlement first. Take out the cherry tomato sales money.”
“It’s here.”
Theo’s shoulders felt heavy and he handed the money to Sejun.
“It’s 75 Top Coins.”
“That’s right!!!”
A loud voice.
“……”
Sejun’s eyes meet his gaze without avoiding it. Ears pricked up. I was so confident. Something was suspicious.
At that time,
[The tower manager informs you that Eul is lying.]
[The tower manager informs you that Eul sold magic cherry tomatoes for 0.07 Top Coin each.]
[The tower manager is looking forward to the fear of Gap that you will show. There is.]
A message that appears at the right time. The tower manager was also watching Theo. I learned something new.
‘Is that so?’
Sejun looked at Theo closely.
‘I didn’t mean to steal it…’
With Theo’s personality, he couldn’t have behaved so confidently if he had stolen the money. Because if he does something wrong, it will be obvious.
‘Then what is it? no way?!’
When Sejun thinks about Theo’s confident attitude, he says,
“Ta-da! People waited for days to buy magic cherry tomatoes, so I got 0.02 more Top Coins for each one. Did I do a good job?”
Theo said, taking out 30 more Top Coins. They aimed for a dramatic effect by taking out more unexpected money.
But
“here’s the incentive.”
Sejun, who had already found out the information, was not surprised. Sejun handed 4.2 Topcoin to Theo.
“Huh?! Isn’t there anything else? I did a good job, but they won’t make me the representative?”
“This is not enough. Teacher Te, please work harder.”
“Okay.”
Theo said that becoming a CEO was difficult and decided to work harder to sell.
“Sejun, I’m out of grilled fish. I need my wages.”
“Okay. Wait.”
Sejun approached the dark pond. When black rabbits hunt by swimming, they turn off torches to prevent piranhas from flocking to them.
Sejun goes to the pond and
digs.
There were no piranhas in the pond, and a black rabbit was swimming alone.
Instead, 10 piranhas that had been caught were piled neatly on the ground next to the pond. These were piranhas that the black rabbit caught by swimming.
Food deuk.
As Sejun approached the pond, a black rabbit came out of the pond and shook itself off.
“It’s black rabbit burning time.”
Sejun spoke to the black rabbit and held up two dead piranhas.
Bye!
At Sejun’s words, the black rabbit stood in the pond and took a solemn look.
There is a way to lure piranhas using a torch, but there is a way to attract piranhas faster and more violently than a torch.
Sejun plunged the piranha’s teeth into the body of another piranha and then pulled it out. I pressed down on the body of the piranha that had its teeth stuck in it, dropped a few drops of blood into the pond, and waited.
And in less than a minute, dozens of piranhas, smelling blood, came in through the hole in the pond. In no time, the pond turned into half water and half fish.
Then, as usual, Sejun waves the torch and
splashes! splashes!
The black rabbit quickly hunted the piranha that jumped up after seeing the torch by hitting it with a hammer.
When I went to the fire with the piranhas I had caught and was making grilled fish,
I heard this.
There was a strange sound. Sejun looked where the sound came from and saw Theo licking something intently.
“Theo what is that?”
“You mean this? Churdanyanang.”
“Chur?! Where did you get that?”
“I got it from people taking pictures for me. This is tuna flavored…”
Theo said as he took out the churros he received in each flavor from the box and started showing off.
It was all chur. entire!
There was nothing for myself.
Doing business with people and only receiving chur…
choch choch cho. cho cho cho cho.
Eat delicious food alone. For some reason, I felt angry.
“Chur seized.”
Sejun confiscated all the chews he took out of his luggage.
“Huh?! Why are you like that? I got this for taking pictures with humans!”
When Chuur was confiscated, Theo foamed at the mouth and strongly protested to Sejun. You made even the innocent Theo stand up to you. After all, Chuur is a cat-only drug.
However, Sejun had the legitimate right to confiscate Chuur.
“Okay. You took the picture and got it in exchange, right?”
“That’s right!”
“Special contract number 3. Party B cannot create additional business partners without Party A’s permission. This is a clear violation of the contract.”
Sejun said, showing the contract.
“Ugh! Something like that?!”
“Yes. You were wearing a different bag without me knowing.”
I was greatly shocked by the fact that Theo had to lose Chuur helplessly.
“Don’t be too disappointed. Representative Te. Rather, let’s talk about our new business partner.”
“Huh?! Am I the representative?”
“I’ll give you one hour. If you perform well in the new deal in the future, I’ll give you one hour as Te’s representative.”
“Okay! Please call me one more time.”
“Representative Te.”
“Hehehe. Please do it one more time.”
“Representative Te.”
Theo was happy to be able to sit in the representative’s chair even for an hour. Theo quickly took a seat on Sejun’s lap.
“I want to eat churro too.”
“okay.”
Sejun took out a chur and held it out in front of Theo.
Cheap chook chok.
As expected, it was a good thing for the representative to even feed him.
Sejun patted Theo’s head, which he had completely passed over, and talked about a new business using Theo’s portrait rights. It seemed like there would be a way to bring in items from outside sooner than expected.
There are two cases where outside objects enter the tower.
One is vanishing. At this time, you can bring whatever you are holding into the tower. However, since you are summoned to the first floor without knowing when and where you will be vanished, the transaction is already over there.
The remaining one is an item that the awakened hunter brings with him when he enters the tower.
When a hunter enters the tower, only items weighing about 1kg can be brought into the tower. Items are excluded from the weight limit. And when you go out, you can take it with you without restrictions.
The items that hunters usually take with them when entering the tower are the Hunter Phone, a smartphone for hunters, and simple food items.
The Hunter Phone was a must-have for hunters because it has the functions of the existing Smartone, a solar charging function considering the environment of a tower where the sun is always present, and a function that allows short-distance communication with team members.
“I can’t bring much because of the weight limit, but I will bring some simple seasoning and coffee. Understand? Te Temple?”
“Huh? What do you mean? And why are you suddenly calling me Te Temple?”
When Sejun’s touch stopped, Theo, who was dozing off while eating churro, asked.
“An hour is over.”
“You mean already?”
Theo was disappointed and came out of Sejun’s arms, holding the remaining chews. Theo misunderstood that sitting on Sejun’s lap and being stroked was a privilege of being a CEO.
“Next time, bring something useful. Then, you will become the representative of Te again.”
“I understand!”
Then,
“Theo, how can you get to the 38th floor without fighting monsters?”
I wondered about it sometimes, but I tried not to pay attention to it.
I didn’t want to pay attention to anything outside. Because I can’t go out anyway.
So I was trying my best to ignore it, but when I realized that I could get something outside, I unconsciously became curious about the outside.
“That’s because I have a wandering merchant license.”
“A wandering merchant license?”
“That’s right.”
Theo said proudly with his hands on his hips.
The traveling merchant license requires paying expensive membership fees to the traveling merchant association every year to maintain the qualification.
And as your level increases, the annual membership fee you have to pay also increases. Instead, the benefits you receive also increase.
Wandering merchants who pay membership fees are protected by the Wandering Merchant Association and can use various facilities. That’s why you don’t get attacked by monsters.
“Then Theo, can’t you bring the hunters here?”
“That’s impossible. Monsters don’t only attack wandering merchants. Plus, hunters can’t use merchant passages.”
“Merchant aisle?”
“That’s right. It’s a shortcut that merchants take. The merchant passage also requires a wandering merchant license.”
“shortcut…?”
“That’s right. It’s impossible to get from the 38th floor to here in 5 days except through the merchant passage.”
“What floor is this?”
Sejun asked, Oops! did. I asked something I shouldn’t have asked.
“It’s the 99th floor.”
Theo answered in a clear voice.
“what?!”
In the end, I found out what I didn’t want to know the most.
“This is the 99th floor. Didn’t you know?”
It was Theo who kindly told Sejun again if he had misheard and even confirmed the death.
Sejun was relieved that Theo had reached the 38th floor in 5 days.
I wondered if this place was only a few floors away from the 38th floor, so that Theo, who cannot use waypoints like hunters, could make the round trip in 10 days.
So I asked without much thought… and was completely caught off guard.
I lost motivation for new business and other things.
When Sejun was blank for a while,
he clicked.
“Sejun! My weekly salary is on the line!”
Theo, who was quietly licking the remaining churro, hurriedly called Sejun when he smelled the burning fish.
“Huh?! Oh!”
Sejun came to his senses at Theo’s shout.
‘no! ‘Wake up, Park Se-jun!’
Nothing has changed. I just know what floor this is on.
Sejun consoled himself and took the grilled fish out of the fire. I got a little burn on my hand while taking out the grilled fish, but I didn’t even know it hurt.
And then I thought of another breakthrough.
“Theo, is it possible for me to become a wandering merchant?”
According to Theo, if you become a wandering merchant, you can safely descend the tower.
But,
“You can’t be Sejun. A wandering merchant can only be someone born in the tower.”
Breakthrough blocked again.
“Fuck! Damn-!”
Sejun screamed in anger at the reality of not being able to do anything.
“Hicuk! Why are you like that…Hicuk! Nyang?”
Theo, startled by Sejun’s shout, hiccuped. What surprised me was that the rabbits and the poisonous bees were no different.
The rabbits perked up their ears and opened their eyes wide as they looked at Sejun, and the poisonous bees were also busy flapping their wings and flying around in all directions. Even the poisonous bee queen stuck her head out of the hive to see what was going on.
“Phew. Sorry for yelling.”
Sejun apologized to the cave family. Still, after yelling, I calmed down a little.
And Sejun made one decision.
“I will eat well and live well here!”
