“Alright!”
Sejun rose energetically again today.
“Hehehe.”
Now there are three satellites.
He grinned for no particular reason, feeling good.
“Then, shall I check my achievements?”
<Title: Attractor of Satellite Worlds>
You can receive 0.01% of the rewards that residents of inducted satellite worlds obtain through the system once a year.
<Aidar (Lv. 2)>: Strength 0.07, Stamina 0.09, Agility 0.054, Magic power 0.19, Experience points 10,300 & 1261 Tower Coins
<Ken (Lv. 3)>: Strength 1.2, Stamina 1.3, Agility 1.1, Magic power 1.8, Experience points 20,031 & 5600 Tower Coins
Although <Aidar> was the first to be inducted as a satellite world, <Ken>, which was inducted later and is Level 3, had more rewards, likely due to the level difference.
And then
<Kamyeolmyeolmyeoseong (Lv. 1)>: Strength 0, Stamina 0, Agility 0, Magic power 0, Experience points 0 & 0 Tower Coins
“Why is it like this? Eok-Samchiri, aren’t you making them work?”
Seeing the rewards of <Kamyeolmyeolmyeoseong>, Sejun frowned and called [System Eok-Samchiri].
[Sejun-nim, it is merely being displayed as 0, but if you look beyond the fifth decimal place, there are rewards. The reason the rewards are so pitiful is that normally, a world of <Kamyeolmyeolmyeoseong>’s caliber would instantly be at least a Level 7 world, but because the owner of <Kamyeolmyeolmyeoseong>, Sejun-nim, is…][System Eok-Samchiri] cautiously explained so that Sejun wouldn’t get angry, but ultimately, because Sejun was weak, <Kamyeolmyeolmyeoseong>’s level couldn’t increase.
Therefore, beings at the Level 7 standard were doing Level 1 world quests, which meant the quest rewards weren’t being properly received.
“Then I need to raise <Kamyeolmyeolmyeoseong>’s level. Eok-Samchiri, tell me how to level up.”
[Yes. There are five ways to raise a world’s level…]The first method was to plunder other worlds.
In the process of plundering other worlds, you would naturally steal evolution experience points to raise your world’s level.
The second method was to assign a guardian deity and develop the world.
This was a method where the guardian deity helps the world develop and accumulates evolution experience points.
The third method was to grow a World Tree.
This was similar to the second method. However, normally growing a World Tree is difficult and not an easily usable method. Though that didn’t apply to Sejun.
The fourth method was to provide evolution experience points.
If Sejun gave evolution experience points he possessed, he could immediately evolve <Kamyeolmyeolmyeoseong> into a Level 3 world.
But with the Nine Great Towers currently converging on Earth, raising Earth’s level was more urgent, so he decided to pass on that.
The fifth method was to use a Dimensional Evolution Stone.
There was something called a Dimensional Evolution Stone. Using it would allow him to increase evolution experience points.
“Hm.”
Sejun pondered for a moment after listening to [System Eok-Samchiri].
“For now, I should assign a proxy guardian deity to Kamyeolmyeolmyeoseong.”
He decided to start with the easiest method. Since there were plenty of gods around who wanted to become a proxy guardian deity, this was the easiest choice for Sejun.
At that moment
“Puhuhut. Great hybrid Chairman Park, leave the appointment of Kamyeolmyeolmyeoseong’s proxy guardian deity to me, Vice Chairman Theo, meow!”
Theo stepped up.
“Vice Chairman Theo wants to do it?”
“Puhuhut. That’s right! I can do it well, meow!”
“Alright. Then I’ll leave it to Vice Chairman Theo.”
“Puhuhut. Got it, meow!”
Once Sejun gave his permission, Theo hugged Sejun’s knees tightly and closed his eyes.
And then
Then I shall open an auction to appoint the proxy guardian deity of Kamyeolmyeolmyeoseong, belonging to great hybrid Chairman Park! The god who offers the highest amount will become the proxy guardian deity, meow!
Theo held an auction among the gods to select the proxy guardian deity.
Naturally, the non-combat gods who chanted God-Sejun enthusiastically participated in the auction.
“Puhuhut. Chaos, the God of Chaos, is the winning bidder, meow!”
“Yes! I got it!”
Chaos, the God of Chaos, became the proxy guardian deity of <Kamyeolmyeolmyeoseong>.
Meanwhile,
[Hehe. Since we’re sending someone anyway, wouldn’t a Dimensional Tree be better than a World Tree? Who would be the best to send?]
Flamie was contemplating which student from the Dimensional Tree School should be sent to <Kamyeolmyeolmyeoseong>.
While Theo and Flamie began the process of raising <Kamyeolmyeolmyeoseong>’s level,
“Hmhmmhm.”
Sejun prepared breakfast.
“Cuengi, can you go get some locusts and petrifying spiders?”
Kueng!
Clang!
At Sejun’s request, Cuengi energetically opened the Void Storage and headed toward the Calamity Farm.
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe. No one can enter the Void Storage guarded by great Blackie!]
Blackie, with his small body, confidently guarded the entrance of the Void Storage.
And then
Kking! Kking? Kking?!
[Don’t come! How dare you approach the place guarded by great Blackie!? Do you want to be punished?!]
Even if someone merely approached the Void Storage, he barked noisily and diligently fulfilled his self-appointed duty. No one had actually given him the mission.
A little while later.
Kueng!
[Dad, I brought the meat!]
Cuengi returned carrying a mountain of locusts and petrifying spiders.
“My son did great.”
Kuehehehe.
“Want to prepare the meat together with Dad?”
Kueng!
Sejun cheerfully prepped the meat with Cuengi and made Yonggari Chicken, crab meat soup, and grilled lobster.
As for the Yonggari Chicken…
“Brother-in-law, I want to eat Yonggari Chicken! It’s been over 24 hours since I last had it!”
It was because Ace, whom Sejun had met in the mental world yesterday, showed withdrawal symptoms and begged for it.
No one could resist chicken.
So Sejun planned to briefly enter the Tower later and deliver it.
Once breakfast was ready,
“Teecher-nim, Shyongshyong is hungry.”
“Huljeok is hungry too…”
The children, lured by the smell, got up and came into the kitchen one by one.
“Kids, let’s eat breakfast.”
He fed breakfast to the children.
“Let’s eat too.”
After eating with his group, Sejun played with the children, fed them lunch, and put them down for naps, tirelessly accumulating evolution experience points.
And then
Slurp.
“Ahh. This is nice.”
“Hihi. It’s delicious.”
Kuehehehe. Kueng!
[Hehehe. It’s yummy!]
While the kids were napping, they took a brief break, sipping coffee.
A little later.
“Let’s start rehearsal for the play.”
“Puhuhut. Sounds good, meow!”
Sejun began rehearsing the next performance with his group.
This time, the play was ‘The Devoted Tiger’. (TL: Watch here -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0epN_SOsHo)
For reference, their previous play was ‘The Tiger and The Persimmon’, which they had completely botched. (TL: Watch here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSfSnjtgnqo)
The tiger had to carry the thief on its back, so Theo, Cuengi, and Blackie wore the tiger costume together to play the tiger…
Kihihit. Kking!
[Great Blackie will be the head!]
“Puhuhut. The youngest should do the tail, meow!”
Kueng!
[Cuengi will do the head and eat the persimmon, too!]
Theo, Cuengi, and Blackie fought over who would be the head of the tiger costume, causing the performance to go off track.
To make things worse, they gave each child a dried persimmon to taste before the performance.
“It’s persimmon~!”
“Give me a persimmon~!!!”
After that, anytime the children saw a persimmon during the play, they got so excited and rowdy that the performance fell into chaos.
“I didn’t think they’d like persimmons that much….”
Anyway, this time, they planned to prepare more carefully to avoid repeating those mistakes.
“But Vice Chairman Theo, can you do a crying scene?”
Since the tiger had a crying scene, Sejun asked Theo.
“Meow? I, Vice Chairman Theo, do not shed tears, meow!”
Theo answered boldly.
Yeah. Our Vice Chairman Theo is brave and usually plays villains.
Sejun gave up right away upon hearing Theo’s answer and asked Iona,
“Iona, can you cover it with magic?”
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Leave it to me. I’ll turn Theo-nim into a master of tearful acting with magic!”
Iona responded with a confident expression. It was the moment she was reborn as the makeup and costume magician.
Once the preparations for the play rehearsal were complete,
“A long, long time ago, in a deep mountain village, an old father and a young daughter lived together.”
Sejun and his group began their rehearsal.
Originally, the mother’s role was supposed to go to Aileen,
“Weak roles don’t suit me.”
Aileen rejected the role of the mother, so the mother was rewritten as the father, and Sejun decided to take the part.
If it had been a role as a lover or wife to Sejun, she would have done it without question, but anything else didn’t interest Aileen.
“Dad! I’m going to go gather firewood! Orders for firewood are piling up since winter is coming!”
Taecho said, preparing an axe and a carrying frame.
“Alright. But be careful of tigers. I heard hunter Choi had a close call with a tiger just a few days ago.”
“Yes! I’ll be careful, Dad!”
Taecho waved to Sejun and walked energetically toward the stage painted with the mountain entrance.
At that moment,
Swoosh.
The stage transformed into a deep mountain forest in an instant. It was Iona’s illusion magic.
In the newly transformed scene,
“Great. This tree looks good.”
Thump. Thump.
Taecho swung the axe into a tree.
Then,
Shwoop. Shwoop. Shushushwoop.
Theo quietly approached Taecho from behind.
“Roar, meow! Just one Churu….”
He unconsciously said a different line.
“Cut! Vice Chairman Theo, that’s a line from ‘The Sun and the Moon’, remember?”
Sejun immediately pointed it out.
“Meow? I made a mistake, meow! I’ll do it again, meow!”
“Alright. Let’s go again.”
“Puhuhut. This time, I won’t mess up, meow! Roar, meow! I was hungry, and now I’ve found something delicious, meow!”
Theo recited his line again.
“Eek! It’s a tiger!”
Taecho also acted frightened with a terrified expression.
It was extremely clumsy, but
Wow. Our Taecho is great at acting too.
She could totally be an actress someday.
Through the lens of a doting father, Sejun saw nothing less than the performance of a world-class actress capable of drawing ten million viewers.
“Roar, meow! Looks delicious, meow!”
Theo licked his lips as he slowly approached Taecho.
And as Theo got closer,
(What should I do?! I have to do something!) “Oh my! Older brother! I’ve finally found you! How have you been all this time?!”
Taecho broke from monologue and bowed deeply to Theo, speaking cheerfully.
“Roar, meow?! Why would I, Tiger Theo, be your older brother, meow?! Don’t lie, meow! You think I won’t eat you just because you say that, meow?!”
“Brother, it’s me! Taecho! Don’t you remember me? Don’t tell me you’ve even forgotten the parents who raised you?!”
“Meow?! Are you trying to turn a perfectly fine tiger into an unfilial cat, meow?! And you’re a human and I’m a tiger, how can I be your older brother, meow?!”
“That’s not true! You were originally a human too, Brother!”
“Really, meow?!”
Good. Watching the play, Sejun smiled in satisfaction. Everything was going smoothly.
104.28.193.250
However.
[A quest has occurred.][Quest: Please locate 3 [Children of Creation Tainted by Destruction] who were left behind in <Nekucha> and bring them to the Kindergarten of Destruction.]
Reward: Increases the stored capacity of [Brilliant Darkness Earrings] by 15%, <Earth Lv. 4> Evolution Experience 9%
A quest appeared, interrupting the rehearsal.
“Three?”
With so many children, Sejun couldn’t ignore the quest, worrying about peace in <Nekucha>.
And if there were three, how much is the reward?!
He wanted to collect the rewards for three children quickly.
One might misunderstand that the 9% evolution experience looked small because the reward decreased, but that wasn’t the case.
It was simply that the evolution experience required to level up <Earth> to Level 5 had doubled, so the percentage appeared smaller. In reality, the actual experience received was more than before.
“Guys, let’s go pick up some new classmates.”
“Puhuhut. Sounds good, meow!”
Kueng!
Kking!
“Taecho wants to go with Daddy too!”
So Sejun and his group set out to bring the new students to the Kindergarten of Destruction.
“Sejun, be careful out there!”
[Sejun-nim, travel safely!]
Aileen and Flamie saw them off.
While Sejun and his group had left Earth,
Boom.
The purple Great Tower landed on Earth earlier than scheduled.
