Episode 647. You’re so squeamish?
[You have arrived at the first floor of the Blue Colossus].
—.
…
.
Sejun has arrived at the Blue Tower.
Chulkung.
He hurriedly opened the subspace warehouse.
“Fufufuf. Chairman Park, I missed you!”
Theo, who was waiting at the door of the subspace warehouse, baking bread, jumped out.
Kwirorong.
He carried a sleeping Iona by the tail.
Wrapped in Theo’s cosy tail, Iona could sleep well in any situation.
“Yum!”
As soon as Theo was on Sejun’s lap, he used his Talent: Energy Sucker at full power, absorbing Sejun’s energy.
Kweng!
Kweng!
Meanwhile, Queng and Camang also ran out of the subspace warehouse and hugged Sejun.
“Good job.”
Sejun patted Theo’s head and praised him.
Tsudam.Tsudam.
He patted Queng and Camang’s heads as well.
If he didn’t do this, they would beg him to do it for them.
Then he said.
“Puh-huh-huh. You’re good at everything!”
Starting with Theo.
Koohehehe.Kooeng!
[Hehehe. Kwengi knows he’s good at kwengi!]
Hee hee hee!
[Hee-hee. The great Kamang is invincible!]
Queng and Kamang smiled smugly. They were all very confident.
‘They’re all so humble.
Sejun can’t let that happen again.
Huh. Then I’ll teach them some humility.
He smiled wickedly and stretched their cheeks.
“Hmph.”
“Fufufuf.”
Koohoohoo.
Hee hee hee.
It didn’t seem to have a humility effect, but everyone was satisfied.
Se-joon touched the cheeks of his companions, satisfying their selfishness.
“Let’s go, then.”
As they crossed the street of shops to reach the private passageway on the first floor of the tower
“Sejun-sama! Hello!”
Someone greeted Sejun.
“Huh? Tobas?”
It was Tobas of Hutang, the man who had done so much to stamp the Blue Colossus’s target, Vochelle.
“Tobas, what are you doing here?”
“Hahaha, a merchant doing business.”
“Really?”
There aren’t too many customers for such a thing.
The area around Tobas’s stall was deserted.
Sejun looked at his wares, hoping to find something to sell.
But
“Ugh. How can you sell this?”
The stall was full of bananas that were on the verge of spoiling.
Poorly cared for and overripe.
It wasn’t worth the waste of Tobas.
“No way. Queng, take out the strawberries.”
Kweng!
Sejun stepped in to help Tobas with his business.
And then
“Iona, make ice.”
“Pow, pow, pow. Yes!”
“Pooh-pooh. Chairman Park, what am I doing?!”
“Vice Chairman Teh, use your dragon claw to grind strawberries, bananas, and ice.”
“Puh-huh. I get it! My dragon claws are very sharp, I can grind it!”
“Kweng peels the banana, and Kamang picks the strawberry.”
Kweng!
Kwing!
Sejun gives the group a task to do.
“Pooh-pooh. Chairman Park, you’re done!”
“Yep. Good job.”
While doing nothing, Theo grabs a dragon’s claw and grinds up the strawberry juice.
Gulp.
drank it.
“Wow. You should try the kuengi.”
Kuaeng!
Queng, whose mouth had been watering since he smelled the delicious smell of strawberries and bananas being mixed and grated, hurriedly took the glass of strawberry juice and drank it down.
Kweng! Kweng!
[It’s sweet and delicious! Dad’s a genius!]
“Hmph.”
Sejun laughed at Kweng’s praise.
“Tobas, let’s make this and sell it, so we won’t lose money.”
He suggested Tobas start a strawberry juice business.
If he made and sold strawberry juice, he could dispose of overripe bananas and make money.
“Oh. Are you helping me?”
“No. We’re just going to give you strawberries and ice.”
All of these people, except for Sejun, are really high-level talents, and they can sell a daughter bar for 10,000 tokens and not pay for labour.
Sejun, who had such talented people make the bars, was living a super-luxurious life.
Se-joon, the man who made Tobas of Hutang into Tobas of Daeba.
“Then sell them hard.”
“Yes! Thank you!”
I walked past Tobas’s stall and looked at the other shops.
“Huh?! What’s that? That’s interesting. What’s this?”
I bought some food.
After giving Tobas some ice and strawberries and teaching him the recipe for dulce de leche and a few precautions, it was almost dinner time.
I did this not because I wanted to eat, but to create new dishes.
I had a great cause: culinary research.
“Queng, do you want to try it?”
Queng!
[I want to eat it!]
And he had a great partner to share the food with, so Sejun went through almost every single item on the menu at every single store.
“Oh. This is so soft.”
While eating at one such restaurant.
[Talent: Gluttony triggered].
[Your Squeamishness has increased by 30].
[All stats increased by 30].
A message appeared in front of Sejun.
“You’re squeamish?”
I wish I’d just eaten it without realising it—.
[System 371] Sejun realises that he’s eaten something strange.
“Here, what is this made of?”
Unable to contain his curiosity, he asked the waitress what the food was made of.
“Ah. It’s made from the meat of a giant blue fly—”
“What?! What?!”
“A fly. Don’t you know flies? Weing. They fly like this.”
In response to Sejun’s question, the clerk very kindly explained in detail what a fly looks like, flapping its wings with its arms.
A real winged fly, not a fly person?!
Sejun was even more shocked. As he pictured the fly in his head, he couldn’t resist the food.
Nod.
Sejun nodded to the waiter to signify that he understood, and the waiter left the table.
“Tut tut tut. Quang, spit it out quickly.”
Sejun hurriedly spat out the remaining food in his mouth, then said quietly to Quengyi.
He wanted to shout, “That’s Jiji!” but he couldn’t interrupt someone else’s business.
Quang?
Tut tut tut.
Quang Yi was puzzled, so he did as Sejun said and spat out the food.
Then he said
“Sorry, sir. Here’s the check!”
Sejun apologised to the cashier, gathered up the group, and hurriedly paid the bill.
Despite a few bouts of food poisoning along the way, it was a pleasant experience.
Ah.
With our bellies full, we were almost out of the store when…
Puck.
“Stand up straight?! I told you I’d beat the shit out of you if you came out of the back!”
I heard the sound of a beating coming from the back alleyway, followed by the standard scary older brother comment.
Ping-pong.
It attracted the attention of Theo, the master of the ping-pong.
“Puh huh huh. Chairman Park, hurry over there!”
“Okay.”
Se-joon headed to where Theo was pointing.
“Huh?! Where are they?”
Sejun’s eyes caught sight of a group of frogs, the inhabitants of the level 3 world Ressia, huddled against a wall, looking terrified.
“Next time you make eye contact with us, there will be no real soup. We’ll just give you poison.”
I saw giant toads threatening the frogs.
And then
“Yuck, yuck, yuck, everybody stop!”
Theo’s eyes widened at the sight, and he went into Stage 2 of his rage.
<Ressia is a world where Theo’s slave, the Jewel Frog God Garon, is the guardian deity.
The inhabitants of Ressia regarded anyone who crossed him as a slave of Theo’s.
In a broader sense, it meant touching Theo, the vice president of the Sejun Company.
You have touched Theo’s company.
“You disrespected our great Chairman Hybrid Park!”
That would be interpreted as belittling Sejun, the chairman.
“Gee-gee-gee-gee-gee-gee-”
Theo’s anger prompted Iona to match it with a four-step angry snap.
A moment later.
“Pooh-pooh.”
“Pooh-pooh-pooh.”
Phew.
While Theo stamped on the backs of the stunned giant toads.
“You okay?”
“Yep. Thank you.”
“But who are they?”
Sejun asked the frogs about the toads’ identities.
“Those toads are—”
The toads had come from <Buspo>, a level 6 world connected to the Blue Colossus.
As soon as they arrived, they persecuted the frogs of Lessia, who were weaker than them, dismissing them as inferior.
“They’ll be fine in the future.”
Sejun reassured the frogs.
Sejun went to the <Buspo> to tie up the toads.
When he was done
“You guys made a mistake!”
The biggest of the toads came to his senses and shouted, “You guys made a mistake!
You don’t mean to tell me that you know who my dad is, do you?
As Sejun thought about the toad’s next line
“Do you know who my dad is?! He’s the Emperor of the Kerma Empire!”
Katoma shouts out that obvious line.
And then.
Koohehehe. Kweng?! Kweng!
[Hehehe. Do you know who Kweng’s dad is?! Kweng’s dad is Sejun Company Chairman Park Sejun!]
Kweng replied with the obvious line.
He finally bragged about his dad!
In a very proud voice.
And then
‘Wow. How is this heartwarming?
Sejun felt a sense of pride as he looked at her.
I’m such a cool (?) dad that she’s proud to show off.
And just when Sejun was happy to be recognised by Quang Yi
“Puh-huh-huh. Dad’s like an emperor?!”
Theo asks Katoma, laughing.
Katoma thought he was asking to make himself look good, so he laughed and replied.
“Kahahaha. That’s right—”
Puck.
He was hit in the back of the head by Theo and stunned, just to make sure.
“Foohoohoo. Chairman Park, let’s go to this guy’s dad!”
Theo, who had just knocked Katoma out, said to Sejun in an excited voice.
“Hmph. Yeah.”
Of course Sejun was excited, too.
It’s not even a kingdom, it’s an empire.
How much money could he have?
I’ve been making a lot of money lately, so I’ve filled 300 of the 1,000 Jyung Topcoins required to create a new rule of the world.
I need to fill this up quickly and save enough money to get home.
With that, Sejun left a note for Katoma to wait for him at the Empire and headed for the private passage.
99th floor of the Black Tower.
“We’ll be leaving in a bit.”
Soon it was time for the dragon’s tour.
Bi Ying!
[Be careful, Earth Dragon!]
Sweetie waved goodbye to the dragon.
“Okay. Bye then.”
[Go to Tartaros, the Prison of the Gods].
The dragon took a field trip to Tartaros.
And so the dragon went on his tour.
Sejun’s Brewery.
“—?”
Sejun 12 found a quarter of the brewery’s liquor missing.
Where did it go?
Seijun 12 scratches his head.
Soon, he starts brewing again as if it’s nothing, because if it’s missing, he can just fill it up.
After a while.
Tartaros.
“Here you go. Drink up!”
The dragon urged the gods of Tartarus to drink.
It was he who took the brewery’s liquor. Of course, he had asked Sejun’s permission beforehand.
The reason why he had brought so much alcohol was because Sejun’s alcohol had the effect of increasing the divine power of the gods.
“Great. Good. Big brother, where were we talking about earlier?”
“He said he was looking for a place to steal and hide the treasure.”
“Ah. Right, so where did I hide the treasure—”
I loved the information.
Especially since the guards and prisoners of Tartarus hadn’t had a drink in at least ten thousand years, even a little alcohol would get them drunk and they’d blurt out their secrets hesitantly.
“Oh! Really?!”
“Huh?! Your glass is empty, have some more.”
“You’re amazing!”
The dragon poured the drink into the empty glasses, and with a few quick dances, the dragon could easily hear the places where treasures, wonders, and valuable items were located.
I’ll have to remember this and tell Sejun about it.
The dragon tried hard not to forget what he had heard.
