“Kids, it’s breakfast time!”
“Yes!”
[Nutritionist Park Sejun of the Kindergarten of Destruction has fed 16 [Children of Creation Tainted by Destruction] until they were full.]…
..
[As a reward for feeding them fully, <Earth (Lv. 3)>’s evolution experience has increased by 0.016%.]
“Kids, since we’ve eaten, let’s go play now!”
…
..
[As a reward for playing with them joyfully, <Earth (Lv. 3)>’s evolution experience has increased by 0.08%.]
“Kids, you’re hungry after playing hard, right? Let’s eat lunch now!”
“Yes!”
[Nutritionist Park Sejun of the Kindergarten of Destruction has fed 16 [Children of Creation Tainted by Destruction] until they were full.]…
..
[As a reward for feeding them fully, <Earth (Lv. 3)>’s evolution experience has increased by 0.016%.]
“Kids, you’re full, so you must be sleepy, right? Let’s take a nap now.”
“Yes…”
[Teacher Park Sejun of Kindergarten of Destruction has sent 16 [Children of Creation Tainted by Destruction] to dreamland.]…
..
[As a reward for putting them to sleep, <Earth (Lv. 3)>’s evolution experience has increased by 0.032%.]
From early in the morning, Sejun cooked diligently, played with the children, and worked hard to raise Earth’s evolution experience.
Slurp.
“Phew. This is tiring….”
While the children were sleeping, he quickly ate and drank coffee, enjoying a brief break.
Then
“Guys, let’s start practicing the Snail Groom play now.”
They began rehearsing the performance.
“Puhuhut. Though I, Magistrate Theo, lost the first bet, I won’t lose the second bet, meow! Deputy Iona, what shall we bet on for the second round, meow?!”
The rehearsal began with the scene where Magistrate Theo, having lost the first bet, furiously decides the second one.
“(Kyoot kyoot kyoot. I should suggest betting on building a road that connects to the neighboring village. If a road is made, the influx of merchants will increase, and it’ll help Magistrate Theo’s tax performance improve, aiding in his promotion!) Magistrate, I think it would be good to bet on who can build the road connecting to two equally distant village first.”
“Deputy Iona, who secretly had feelings for Magistrate Theo, once again suggested a bet that would help with his promotion.”
“Puhuhut. Sounds good, meow! Then let’s bet on who can build the road faster by tomorrow, meow!”
“Alright. See you tomorrow.”
“So the farmer who decided to have a second bet with Magistrate Theo returned home and took the snail out of the jar and explained the bet.”
Kihihit. Kking! Kking!
[Hehe. Don’t worry! If the great Snail Groom steps in, we can win everything!]
Blackie, wearing a poop hat, barked confidently. He was given a scene to maintain his importance.
“We’ll rely on you again. But don’t overdo it. If it’s too much, just let me know. I’ll try to take care of it.”
Aileen spoke boldly, not to Blackie but to Sejun,
“Okay.”
Even though it was supposed to be Blackie’s part, Sejun instinctively answered and nodded. He couldn’t help responding, Aileen’s words were so reassuring.
Butler stole the great Blackie’s line!
Argh!
Blackie, who had his line stolen, bit Sejun’s thigh lightly in anger.
Ah.
Sejun quickly came to his senses and
“Thus, the night passed, and the second bet between the farmer and Magistrate Theo began.”
He read the narration for the next scene.
Then
“Let’s just say Magistrate Theo wins the second bet.”
Sejun skipped over the betting scene. The reason for making Theo win, unlike the original, was because the Mushroom Ants would participate in the actual performance.
I should let them win once.
If they only lost and went back, the Mushroom Ants would probably feel disappointed.
“Puhuhut. Good, meow! Victory is mine, meow!”
At Sejun’s words, Theo smiled brightly and looked pleased. Apparently, Theo also felt disappointed about only losing.
“Puhuhut. Now it’s 1 to 1, meow! If I, Magistrate Theo, win just once more, the Snail Groom is mine, meow! From now on, the Snail Groom will only grill fish for me, meow! Meowahaha. Deputy Iona, what shall we bet for the third round, meow?!”
As expected of a professional villain actor.
While Sejun was admiring Theo’s sly smile acting performance
“(Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Now that we’ve blocked the landslide and opened the road, we should make a tourist attraction! If this succeeds too, Magistrate Theo’s path to promotion will be smooth sailing!) Magistrate, for the third bet, I think it would be good to see who reaches that island first.”
Iona explained the contents of the third bet. Starting with this bet, the plan was to hold an annual maritime race to the island and develop the island into a tourist destination that tourists would enjoy.
“Puhuhut. Excellent, meow! As expected of Deputy Iona, meow! Then farmer, bring a boat to the dock tomorrow, meow!”
“Got it.”
“After the third bet was decided, the farmer went home and told the Snail Groom what had happened today. However…”
Kking! Kking! Kking?!
[This is bad! Bear King, the son of great Snail Groom, can’t use his power in the sea! We’re doomed! Is great Snail Groom-nim going to be dragged away by Magistrate Theo?!]
Blackie’s was giving a dramatic performance.
This part was also adapted, turning Cuengi, Sejun’s son, into the adopted son of the Snail Groom, and adding the setting that he was powerless at sea.
“It’s okay. I’ll take care of it.”
“The Snail Groom was in despair, but the farmer comforted him with a relaxed smile. Ahem. How? The Snail Groom, thinking the farmer had something, transformed into a human and asked the farmer.”
“You’ll know tomorrow.”
“Thus, without hearing the farmer’s answer, the night passed, and the third bet between the farmer and Magistrate Theo began.”
“For the third bet, let’s say the farmer wins… The farmer and the Snail Groom lived happily ever after, and Deputy Iona, who secretly had feelings for Magistrate Theo, married him and supported him faithfully, eventually helping him rise to the position of Prime Minister and living happily. The end.”
With that, the play rehearsal ended.
Splendid.
Fun and a moral lesson. Got both.
“Hehehe. I’ll show it to the kids when they wake up.”
I’m looking forward to the reward.
Sejun smiled brightly, full of anticipation for the reward he would receive after the performance.
When the children watch the performance, there’s a reward + α. The α is a bonus reward received when the children gain some realization from watching the play.
During ‘The Sun and the Moon’ play, the children gained a realization different from the original intention of “lining up properly” and Sejun received 3% Earth evolution experience.
Well, it’s not wrong. Standing in line means making a choice. And life is the result of choices.
“Huh?”
Hahaha. That sounded kind of cool just now.
While Sejun was praising himself, his face turned smug
“Meow?”
I sense rotten energy, meow!
Theo, like a ghost, noticed Sejun’s face instantly.
Then
“Puhuhut. Chairman Park’s face is rotting, meow! Let’s all stomp on it, meow!”
Riling up the group, he rushed toward Sejun’s face.
[Hehe.]
Kuehehehe.
(Bahehehe.)
Kihihit.
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot.”
Flamie, Cuengi, Paespaes, Blackie, and Iona followed behind.
“No matter how I look at him, he’s still handsome… Healing.”
Aileen tilted her head and used a healing spell. In her view, Sejun’s face was fine, but his body was not.
A moment later.
“Alright. Then let’s begin the performance!”
“Wow~!”
With his face full of footprints, Sejun gathered the children who had slept well and started the Snail Groom performance.
Since everyone had practiced hard, the performance proceeded smoothly
“Then let’s begin the first bet, meow! Everyone, plant trees, meow!”
The first bet scene began.
Kkwek!
Kkwek!
Kkwek!
One hundred Mushroom Ants brought in before the performance appeared proudly and began planting trees on the earthen hill Sejun had made
“The Snail Groom also called in workers to plant trees. Ahem. Tower Farmers, summon!”
Sejun summoned workers to plant trees.
[Summoning Ajax Mamebe, honorary full-time employee from the White Tower.][Summoning Ophelia Iorg, honorary full-time employee from the Green Tower.]
…
..
.
Thus, he summoned Tower Farmers. Since the stay fee was free, it was no burden at all.
“I am Tower Farmer Ajax Mamebe of the White Tower!”
“I am Tower Farmer Ophelia Iorg of the Green Tower!”
“I am Tower Farmer Veronica of the Purple Tower.”
…
..
.
They began introducing themselves
“Ahem. I am Hamer, the God of Farming and Tower Farmer of the 10th Tower.”
Haah. My situation…
Hamer, the Tower Farmer of the 10th Tower, also grumbled inwardly as he introduced himself.
Once ten Tower Farmers, including Sejun, had gathered,
Hahaha. I finally get to do this.
Snail Groom Sejun smiled in satisfaction
“Tower Farmers, assemble.”
He spoke the line he had long awaited.
Then
“Go! Tower Farmers!”
He instructed the Tower Farmers to plant trees.
Since everyone was highly capable, the earthen hill was quickly covered with trees.
“Grow!”
Ophelia, especially skilled at growing things, shined brilliantly in her role.
“Wow! Green noona! You’re awesome!”
“The fastest!”
The children admired Ophelia,
“Ha.”
I really am good at farming.
Ophelia felt full of pride in her farming skills for the first time in a while,
“Return.”
And was unsummoned.
The first bet was the farmer’s victory.
The performance continued and the second bet began.
Kueng!
[Cuengi is Bear King, son of the Snail Groom!]
[Hehe. I’m a subordinate of Bear King!]
(Pip-pip. I’m also a subordinate of Bear King!)
The second bet was a road-building contest between Cuengi, Flamie, Paespaes and 100 Mushroom Ants.
Originally, it was a contest that any one of the three could win alone,
Kuehehehe. Kueng!
[Hehehe. We lost, but it was a good match!]
Bear King and his subordinates exited with melancholy. But since they were promised Sejun’s special snack afterward, their faces were filled with smiles.
Kkwek!
Kkwek!
Kkwek!
The 100 Mushroom Ants, who had won once, also exited joyfully.
And when the third bet began
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Power of magic…”
Iona, briefly shifting from Deputy Iona to the stage’s magician, created a small sea with magic.
Swoooosh.
It was a perfect artificial sea, complete with waves.
“Puhuhut. My ship, Magistrate Theo’s ship, is equipped with a rocket motor, meow! Victory is mine, meow!”
Theo proudly shouted as he pulled a motorboat from his bag.
And
“This is my boat.”
Aileen held up a small wooden plank as she spoke.
“Puhuhut. You think you can win against my ship with that piece of wood, meow? Then let’s start, meow!”
Vroom!
Theo sped away on his motorboat with excitement
“…….”
Aileen quietly watched Theo’s boat as it sailed off
“Cancel Polymorph.”
Then she canceled Polymorph and leapt into the artificial sea.
Splash.
Her now-giant body flooded the sea
“Meow?! The boat is flipping, meow!”
Theo’s boat capsized.
“Hyap.”
Aileen stretched her arm out, placed the wooden plank on the island,
“Polymorph.”
She transformed back into a human in front of the island,
“Ha. I win.”
She declared victory. The final scene ended with the farmer revealed to be a dragon hiding her power.
“…….”
The children were stunned by Aileen’s sudden transformation.
“The farmer and the Snail Groom, who won the bet, lived happily ever after… The end.”
The children remained silent until Sejun gave the final narration.
Only after a little time passed,
“Wow! Farmer is so cool!”
“The farmer was a dragon!”
did the cheers begin to erupt.
[Teacher Park Sejun of Kindergarten of Destruction, has shown a wonderful performance to 16 [Children of Creation Tainted by Destruction].]…
104.28.193.250
..
[As a reward for showing a wonderful performance, <Earth (Lv. 3)>’s evolution experience has increased by 1.6%.]
“Yes!”
Nice!
Sejun also cheered inwardly as he received the reward.
And then
“Hiding power is so cooool!”
“Dongdong wants to start hiding power too!”
“Taecho is now a power hider!”
[Teacher Park Sejun of Kindergarten of Destruction, has helped 16 of the [Children of Creation Tainted by Destruction] realize that hiding one’s strength and revealing it at a decisive moment is cool.][As a reward for giving a realization, <Earth (Lv. 3)>’s evolution experience has increased by 8%.]
This time too, the children gained a realization different from Sejun’s intention.
