Episode 35 fable
“Nyan nyang nyang.”
As soon as Theo came out of the passageway from the 60th floor to the 50th floor, humming, he said,
“We have to hurry. The humans are waiting!”
With quick steps, I hurried into the passageway leading from the 50th floor to the 40th floor.
“Is it him?”
When Theo disappeared, three hidden silver wolves appeared. They are the Silver Wolves, and their tribe has earned money by working as free mercenaries in the tower for generations.
Now, at the request of Grid, a large landowner on the 55th floor, Grid was chasing a stolen item. A straw hat with a plain design. It was a commonly available item wherever you went.
They didn’t know why the landowner Grid wanted an ordinary straw hat. But it didn’t matter. Because they are mercenaries who receive compensation.
So the whole tribe moved and found one clue. One of the fence men handed over the straw hat along with other stolen goods to the blacksmith shop in the store area on the 75th floor.
While tracking down the straw hat with that one clue, one of the blacksmith employees remembered who had bought the straw hat.
“A wandering merchant with yellow fur bought it at the lottery corner.”
They tracked down the wandering cat merchants with yellow fur and went into hiding after receiving information that Theo had appeared here.
“What should we do Chief Elka?”
“For now, just keep following.”
Although they were mercenaries, an agreement between the Free Mercenaries Association and the Wandering Merchants Association allowed mercenaries to use the merchant passage if they paid a fee.
Just like that, the three silver wolves followed Theo into the merchant aisle.
and
“Why the Silver Wolves?”
Xerath, who was also waiting to follow Theo, hurriedly entered the merchant aisle.
Theo, unaware that he was being followed, headed to the 38th floor where humans were waiting.

Day 186 of the shipwreck.
After eating lunch and taking a nap with the black rabbit and bear cub on the ground, Sejun came down to the cave.
And
suddenly.
When I was cutting and harvesting cherry tomato branches,
I heard a beep.
Bye.
The husband rabbit came up with the sickle rabbit and pointed to the cornfield. The corn trees had finished harvesting, and only green stems were in full bloom.
“Why the cornfield?”
Sejun was neglecting the corn tree, not knowing if it would grow again like cherry tomatoes or if he should cut it down completely and plant it again.
Wow!
The scythe rabbit went to the corn field and pretended to cut down the base of the corn tree.
“Oh, I have to cut this?”
Beep.
Husband Rabbit nodded. It looked like it needed to be cut down and replanted.
So Sejun finished harvesting the cherry tomatoes and cut down the corn trees.
Creep. Creep. Creep.
Sejun tied the cut corn tree with a rope and moved it to the ground. These days, pie leaves and cherry tomato branches are covering the area around the planting area.
The reason was to prevent moisture from evaporating in the sunlight. This way, you can delay the watering period a little, which frees up time to use that labor elsewhere.
“Pull!”
Ku!ng!ku!ng!
The bear cubs pulled up 40 corn trees tied together. A total of 139 corn trees were moved to the ground four times.
Sejun carefully spread the corn plants in the peanut field so as not to cover the area where the peanuts were planted. And the remaining corn trees were spread widely in the previously prepared field.
And when I’m done,
I’m like, wow.
Mother Crimson Giant Bear came to pick up her cub.
Kueng!
The bear cub waved at Sejun from above the head of his mother Crimson Giant Bear.
“Bye! See you tomorrow.”
Sejun also waved at the bear cub and went down to the cave to finish the remaining work and go to bed.
***
The next morning.
Ugh.
Unlike usual, the mother Crimson Giant Bear, not the bear cub, woke Sejun up.
“Umm…what’s going on?”
[The tower manager reports that there are traces of other monsters around the Crimson Giant Bear cave.]
Eileen answered Sejun’s question on his behalf.
“Other monsters?”
Even the rabbits, who don’t know it but have sensitive hearing, were quiet all night…
[The manager of the tower reports that the Crimson Giant Bears seem to be guys with horns.]
“Guys with horns?”
As soon as Sejun heard the word horn, he thought it might be a monster that created several 7m deep pits during the Blue Moon.
“Then it’s serious…”
Sejun went up to the ground and looked around. Fortunately, it didn’t destroy the field like before.
Instead,
“Huh?!”
All the corn trees that had covered the field had disappeared.
***
Woo Cheonsam was wandering around looking for delicious grass under the instructions of King Woo.
Then
sniff.
There was a fragrant smell from somewhere.
This?
Woo Cheonsam carefully entered the wasteland area. This is a useless area where no one claims territory.
However, since it is no one’s territory, all monsters can roam around, so you need to be careful. Even now, as if it had just passed away, the smell of red fur was strong.
Woo Cheon-sam walked quietly and quietly and arrived at a place with a fragrant smell.
And when I saw fragrant-smelling grass discarded on the ground, I diligently picked it up.
You will be praised by the captain.
Woo Cheonsam returned to his area with both hands full of grass.
Just like that, all of the corn plants, pie leaves, and cherry tomato branches that Sejun had laid out to prevent moisture from evaporating were stolen.
***
Coooooooo!
Mother Crimson Giant Bear informed Sejun of the monster’s invasion and went out on patrol. Today, I planned to focus on patrolling in the direction where the horned guys were.
Just like that, his mother Crimson Giant Bear left and Sejun got lost in thought.
“For now, let’s count ourselves fortunate.”
I was curious as to why the monster took the corn plants that had been laid out on the floor, but I decided to be satisfied that no one was hurt.
But there is no way it will happen again next time, so it was necessary to prepare.
“After all, you need the strength to protect yourself.”
What Sejun came up with as a comparison was a poisonous bee. Sejun had been thinking about ways to protect the surrounding area by increasing the number of poisonous bees.
The number of poisonous bees in the cave has increased rapidly and now exceeds 200. The number is still difficult to deal with even a single monster, but if it continues to increase, it will reach a level that can sufficiently threaten monsters.
With that in mind, Sejun approached the rock where the rope was tied and quietly settled down in front of where the poisonous bee queen’s cocoon was.
Today is the day when the poisonous bee queen in her cocoon fables.
Since the description of the poisonous bee queen’s cocoon mentioned that it fables and regards the first object it sees as its owner, Sejun planned to take a break from farming today and wait here until the poisonous bee queen’s fable ends.
When Sejun carefully opened the pine leaf covering the pit where the poisonous bee queen’s cocoon was kept and looked inside,
it rustled. Rustled.
The poisonous bee queen was struggling to come out of her cocoon.
“cheer up.”
Sejun quietly cheered for the poisonous bee queen and closed the pie leaf.
Sejun waited for the fable to end while eating dried roasted sweet potatoes with coffee, which he could eat quietly, making sure no one came near him and did not disturb the fable of the Queen of Poison Bees.
I also prepared cherry tomato branches with honey and flowers in case the fabled poisonous bee queen said she was hungry.
How much time had passed since Sejun sat down and waited?
Whirring. Whirring.
The delicate sound of flapping wings began to be heard from inside the pit where Sejun had placed the poisonous bee queen’s cocoon.
“no way?!”
When Sejun slightly lifts the leaf of the pie,
weep, weep.
The poison bee queen slowly flew out of the pit and made eye contact with Sejun.
[You have successfully created the cocoon of the poisonous bee queen.]
[You have successfully made the newly born poisonous bee queen recognize you as her owner.]
[Beekeeping Lv. 2 skill level increases significantly.]
[Beekeeping Lv. 2 proficiency is filled and the level increases.]
Weeing. Weeing.
The poisonous bee queen expressed her affection for Sejun by rubbing her body against his hand.
And, perhaps because he was hungry, he walked over to a cherry tomato flower and started sucking the honey.
“Eat a lot.”
The poisonous bee queen, who protects the area around the cave, recovered by sucking honey.
***
This was abandoned in the wasteland?
yes. Leader.
Good job.
thank you!
Woo Cheon-sam was very happy with King Woo’s praise.
Munching.
King Uma was amazed as he chewed and ate the grass that Ucheonsam brought. They were all sweet and soft.
What a wasteland where these grasses were abandoned. I wanted to send my men to take over the entire wasteland, but the amount of grass was too small for that to happen.
The amount of grass in front of King Uma was only one-tenth of the amount that Sejun had stolen. The rest…
shit. sorry. Leader.
Woo Cheonsam burped and apologized to King Woo. While bringing the grass, Woo Cheonsam was hungry and ate the grass until his stomach was full. Thanks to this, King Uma did not send his men into the wasteland.
Wu Tian-sam, go back to the wasteland and bring more of this grass.
yes Leader!
Under the instructions of King Uma, Woo Cheonsam left for the wasteland again. Of course, I was full, so I thought I should go somewhere quiet and get some sleep.

Tower 38th floor.
Five days have passed since the hunters waited for Theo. Most of the hunters gave up on the deal and returned, leaving only two teams that really needed magical cherry tomatoes.
“Could it be that they really went to another floor?”
“No. There may be a problem with supply of goods.”
While they were thinking of various situations in which Theo might not come, they
said, “Humans, I’m here!”
Theo appeared.
“come!”
“Theo why are you here so late?!”
The hunters welcomed Theo.
“I’m sorry. Something happened. But what? My popularity has waned?”
Theo expected many people to cheer for the new D-class magical cherry tomatoes, but his ears drooped when the number of people turned out to be less than expected.
“No. Everyone wanted to come, but we were afraid you might feel uncomfortable, so we were the only ones who came by drawing lots.”
“That’s it? There’s no need for that from next time.”
Theo’s ears came alive again at Kim Dong-su’s words.
“okay.”
Dongsu Kim unknowingly told a white lie for this poor cat.
‘Why did I do that?’
Kim Dong-su himself could not understand his own actions. Seeing Theo disappointed, I wanted to cheer him up somehow.
When Kim Dong-soo, who did not know that he was becoming a butler, was trying to understand his actions, he
said, “The magic cherry tomatoes sold today are special!”
“I know. That’s why we came to buy special cherry tomatoes.”
“No, Nyan! This time it’s even more special! It’s a D-class magical cherry tomato!”
“What?! Class D?”
The hunters’ eyes, who at first thought it was Theo’s prank, changed. A higher level at the top means that the effect is greater. The hunters thought it was a good idea to wait.
“Can I see your options?”
“I miss you too!”
“me too!”
Hunters rushed to Theo to see options for the D-class magical cherry tomatoes.
“human! “Get in line!”
Theo lined up the hunters and had them check the magic cherry tomato options one by one.
“It’s really class D.”
“It breaks down 20g of fat?”
“The amount of magic power increase also increased to 0.2.”
“ The expiration date is 60 days.”
When the hunters checked all the options,
“Today, we will auction off 400 units, a total of 2,000 units.”
Theo declared the auction to begin.
“70 Top Coins for 400!”
“400 units. 90 Top Coins!” At
number 2, the price of D-Class Magical Cherry Tomatoes quickly exceeded 0.2 Top Coins.
The hunters bid a high price without thinking about money. D-Class Magical Cherry Tomatoes have not yet been sold. An item that was not released. Considering its scarcity, this transaction was a business that could definitely leave more than twice as much.
The price soared frighteningly, and each D-class magical cherry tomato was sold for approximately 0.3 Top Coins.
“It’s sold out!”
Theo said to D. I sold 2,000 cherry tomatoes with high magical power, received a total of 612 Top Coins, and the total sales amount exceeded 1,000 Top Coins.
‘Puhuhuhu. Finally, I too will become a mid-sized wandering merchant! Now there is no need to be scared by Park Se-jun!’
Theo was finally able to be honest with Sejun.
