Episode 8. It was a good match.
Episode 8. It was a good match.
Sssss.
The Blue Moon energy that formed on the sweet potato stem went into the ground along the stem.
‘There were sweet potatoes over there?!’
All the sweet potatoes planted this time were for seedlings. I planned to cut the sweet potato shoots and transplant them once they had grown to a certain extent.
Then, sweet potatoes can be multiplied infinitely. Although I learned farming online, there have been no failures so far.
‘So I wasn’t even expecting sweet potatoes…’
“Sweet…”
Sejun drooled involuntarily at the thought of being able to eat sweet potatoes.
“Should I eat it raw? Should I bake it? Can’t I steam it?”
Sejun greeted the dawn of the 92nd day after the shipwreck with open eyes, thinking about how to eat sweet potatoes.
Okay.
As per our daily routine, we first drew a line on the wall and moved to the sweet potato field.
And
saksak.
Sejun carefully began to dig around the ground where the Blue Moon energy had flowed.
“oh-!”
I hadn’t even dug a little bit into the soil with my hands, but I could already see the head of a blue sweet potato.
Sasak, Sasak.
Sejun calmed his speeding hands and carefully removed the dirt around the sweet potato, as if he were exploring archaeological artifacts.
After a while, Sejun carefully lifted a blue sweet potato about the size of his fist from the ground.
[You have harvested pumpkin sweet potatoes filled with the energy of the Blue Moon.]
[Job experience increases significantly.]
[Harvest Lv. 1 mastery increases significantly.]
[Harvest Lv. 1 proficiency is filled and the level increases.]
[50 experience has been obtained.]
The job experience and skill proficiency, which had only increased slightly, have increased significantly. Moreover, the skill has risen to the level.
But that didn’t matter to Sejun right now.
Sejun looked at the sweet potato in his hand.
[Pumpkin sweet potatoes filled with the energy of the Blue Moon]
Sweet potatoes grown in the tower are nutritious and delicious.
It tastes even better thanks to the energy of the Blue Moon.
When consumed, strength is permanently increased by 0.05.
Grower: Top Farmer Park Se-jun
Expiration date: 30 days
Grade: E
It was originally delicious, but it has become even more delicious.
Sejun went to the cherry tomato field and harvested blue cherry tomatoes filled with the energy of the blue moon.
[You have harvested magical cherry tomatoes filled with the energy of the Blue Moon.]
[Job experience increases significantly.]
[Harvest Lv. 2’s proficiency increases a little more.]
[50 experience gained.]
Perhaps because the harvesting skill has just leveled up, the increase in skill proficiency this time was smaller than before.
“Hehehe.”
Holding a green sweet potato in my right hand and a green cherry tomato in my left hand, I felt like I had the world.
At that time
, [an additional quest occurs]
a message appeared that ruined Sejun’s mood.
‘I thought so.’
The looters’ threats began under the pretext of a quest to always prey on Sejun’s crops.
[Quest: Offer the Powerful Pumpkin Sweet Potato containing the energy of the Blue Moon to the Tower Manager.]
Reward: None
If refused: Death!!!!!
[Quest: Offer the magical cherry tomatoes containing the energy of the Blue Moon to the tower manager.]
Reward: None
If refused: Death!!!!!
Two quests appeared at the same time.
‘Are you a little stronger this time?’
Looking at the exclamation mark, I could see how exhausted the tower manager was.
‘What do we do?’
If you refuse and the tower manager feels too bad, it will be a big problem. Then you really die.
But this time I didn’t want to give in. So, I decided to relieve the tower manager’s mood by completing the unfinished quests first.
“I offer you the remaining magical cherry tomatoes.”
[Quest completed.]
The quest in which Sejun offers 500 magical cherry tomatoes has been completed.
[The tower manager is delighted with the basket full of magical cherry tomatoes.]
[The tower manager is urgently grumbling and asking what he is doing.]
I tried to hide my feelings of liking, but it was all revealed through the message. The tower manager had a simpler personality than I thought.
And I’m not in a bad mood now. So I decided not to give in today.
“I’ll give you this next time.”
Sejun received two quests and put them all on hold. I lost it last time without knowing what was going on, but I can’t let this delicious thing be taken away from me.
‘Let me eat too!’
[The tower manager threatens that he must give it to him next time.]
Sejun was angry at the tower manager’s attitude of asking for something as if it were a debt, but he decided to endure it today.
I didn’t want something like that to interrupt my enjoyment.
“But what should I do with this?”
The sweet potatoes were big enough to share with the rabbits, but the cherry tomatoes were too small.
“Then there is only one way.”
Eat quickly and destroy the evidence!
I decided to give the rabbits a lot of magical cherry tomatoes.
Sejun put a green cherry tomato into his mouth.
Pout.
The skin of the cherry tomatoes filled with the energy of the Blue Moon was chewy and chewy like jelly.
And
wow!
Cherry tomato juice wet Sejun’s mouth, and the sweet and sour taste bounced around.
If Magical Cherry Tomatoes was a simple local festival, Magical Cherry Tomatoes, containing the energy of the Blue Moon, was a colorful city festival.
gulp.
[You have consumed the Magical Cherry Tomato containing the energy of the Blue Moon.]
[Your Magical Power will permanently increase by 0.05.]
“Hmm…”
Even after swallowing, the message was not even visible due to the lingering sweet and sour taste that filled my mouth.
Sejun, who ate the green cherry tomatoes, went to the fire.
“It’s a shame there’s no silver foil, but…”
Sejun had the all-purpose pie leaf.
Grumbling.
I cut the green onions and rolled up the sweet potatoes with the leaves.
And waited.
“Heungheungheung.”
I couldn’t help but hum in anticipation of being able to eat roasted sweet potatoes. I could have caught piranhas or harvested cherry tomatoes in my spare time, but I didn’t do that today.
This is the first day to receive roasted sweet potatoes here. The fire was guarded reverently to prevent the unfortunate event of the sweet potatoes burning.
‘As expected, waiting for something delicious is the happiest.’
How much time has passed?
Tap, tap, tap.
While I was happily listening to the sound of leaves and firewood bouncing,
beep!
Beep.
Biya!
Wow!
A family of rabbits came out of their burrow.
Sniff.
Sniff.
The rabbits that came out of the burrows closed their eyes and approached the fire, naturally attracted by the sweet smell of roasting sweet potatoes.
“Just wait a moment and I’ll let you eat something delicious.”
Wow!
The baby rabbits cheered at Sejun’s words. The rabbit couple also waited happily with their arms crossed behind them.
After waiting a bit, the burnt smell of roasted sweet potatoes started to come out.
Biya!
Wow!
The baby rabbits began to worry that the sweet potatoes were burning.
But Sejun was not impatient. From here, timing is important. If you take it out too quickly, only the outside will cook, and if you take it out too late, the outside will be completely burned.
Sejun watched carefully and waited for the scent to ripen.
and
‘Now is the time!’
Sejun quickly took the pie leaves wrapped around the sweet potatoes out of the fire.
Suk. Suk.
I peeled off the charred pie leaves.
Then, I saw a sweet potato with a slightly burned skin on the bottom.
gulp.
Sejun carefully pierced the sweet potato with a fish thorn.
Deep.
Slurp.
Fish spines that gently penetrate into the center of the sweet potato.
‘done! Perfect!’
With a big smile, Sejun lifted the roasted sweet potato like chopsticks using fish spines and moved it onto the clean pie leaves.
Then, I cut the pie leaf into small pieces, held the end of the roasted sweet potato, and started peeling it.
“Oh, it’s hot!”
The roasted sweet potatoes were so hot that it burned my hands when I peeled them, but I held back while thinking about the sweet potatoes I would soon eat.
Sreuk.
A sweet potato that sticks to the skin and falls off every time you peel it.
‘I’ll have to eat alone later.’
Sejun gathered the sweet potato skins in one place so that no one would notice.
But
beep!
Wow!
The baby rabbits had already smelled the sweet potato and were grabbing the sweet potato skin one by one and eagerly licking the sweet potato stuck to the skin.
‘Smart guys.’
The behavior of the rabbits, who learned on their own without being taught, was remarkable. I found out that they were gifted rabbits who knew ten without being taught.
As the skins were taken away by the baby rabbits, Sejun peeled all of the sweet potatoes except for the ends.
No worries.
“Hehehe.”
Watching the hot steam coming out of the yellow roasted sweet potatoes made me smile.
Biya!
Bang!
The baby rabbits, who had eaten enough for their skins to become clean, were begging for sweet potatoes.
“okay.”
Sejun cut a little roasted sweet potato into each leaf plate. Since the sweet potatoes were shared, there would be no strength boosting effect.
But
I don’t care.
As it was my first crop, I wanted to eat it with my family. Since there were so many people in the family, the sweet potatoes were shared, so each person only got a small amount.
Then,
“No!”
What?
When Sejun stopped the baby rabbits from eating the roasted sweet potatoes placed in front of them, they were embarrassed.
“We should eat together. Bring your parents.”
Wow!
At Sejun’s words, the baby rabbits cried and ran over to fetch the rabbit couple.
And finally everyone sat down in front of their leaf plates.
“Let’s eat!”
Beep! Hehe!
Beep! Hehe!
Awesome! Hehe!
The rabbits put roasted sweet potatoes in their mouths and quickly spit them out. There is no smoke, so it seems like everything has cooled down.
“Kkkkkk. Let it cool down before eating. Ho-ho. Ho-oh.”
Sejun showed how he blows enough wind on roasted sweet potatoes to cool them down.
Whoa.
Whoa.
Pooh wow.
The rabbits followed Sejun and blew the wind to cool the sweet potatoes.
“Shall we eat now?”
Wow.
When Sejun took a big bite of the roasted sweet potato, hot steam with a sweet taste spread in his mouth. As expected, the inside of the sweet potato was still hot.
But Sejun had advanced skills.
“Huh up, huh up.”
Sejun rolled the sweet potato in his mouth and cooled it with the air in his mouth. Of course, the downside is that it looks a bit small.
Sejun gave up on the visual and chewed the cooled sweet potato carefully.
Mulkyung.
Gently mashed pumpkin and sweet potatoes. Before Sejun touched his teeth, it felt like it was already splitting to create a path. And finally, the sweetness I had been waiting for exploded. The whole world seemed to turn yellow.
‘It tastes like honey.’
Of course, it would have been nice if there had been a collaboration with milk and kimchi, but it wasn’t lacking.
The deceased CEO of Apple Phone also said this.
simple is best.
Rather, because there was nothing else to add, I was able to focus on the pure sweetness of the pumpkin sweet potato. The pumpkin sweet potato competed fairly with sweetness alone, but it wasn’t boring or boring at all.
“It was a good match.”
Before he knew it, Sejun had peeled off the skin and ate it.
‘In the future, if someone ignores sweet potatoes as a bad crop, I should say something. Sweet potatoes are a good fighter.’
Sejun got up from his seat while thinking about random things.
Then it
growled.
There was a sound from the boat.
“Why?”
I felt like I had eaten a lot, but my stomach was empty.
“ah.”
When I think about it, all I ate for breakfast was one cherry tomato and some roasted sweet potatoes.
It was natural that I was hungry.
Biya!
Wow!
The baby rabbits began whining from hunger.
Plop, pud, pud.
The rabbit couple quickly prepared breakfast by picking green onions and roasting them over a fire.
and
“Wait just a moment.”
Sejun also brought cherry tomatoes from the storage, gave them one by one to the babies, and ran to the pond to catch piranhas.
Jjjjjjup.
Jjjjjjup.
Thanks to the cherry tomatoes, the baby rabbits became quiet.
Just like that, the fourth blue moon passed without any major incidents.
