I dont want to be hit anymore\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks to that, Uren no longer succumbed to the temptation of Fenrirs core fragment.

I am mentally strong, after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I dont think so\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Never mind\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At Sejuns retort, Uren quickly shut his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kking! Kking!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hey! Thats mine! Didnt I give you one already?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fenrir, having regained his strength, barked while hopping towards the core fragment in Sejuns hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be?! Blackie, did you hear the whisper from here too?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sejun misunderstood that Fenrir had heard the whisper from the core fragment. This could be dangerous for Blackie!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aileen, please purify this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly sent the core fragment to Aileen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[The Towers Administrator says to leave it to her.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[The Towers Administrator says she will purify it thoroughly.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing his talk with Aileen,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kking\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My core\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the core fragment disappeared, Fenrir, with his ears and tail drooping, turned his back on Sejun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hehehe. Our Blackie looks totally defeated. Cute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Come on, Blackie, lets eat something tasty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sejun, with a pleased smile, took out two dried sweet potatoes to cheer up Fenrir.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kking!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I wont eat!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fenrir, perhaps heartbroken, immediately turned his head away even from the dried sweet potatoes he usually loved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sejun then took out two more dried sweet potatoes,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kking!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four chewy, yellow ones!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fenrir, who had never eaten four dried sweet potatoes at once, hesitated for a moment but then turned his head away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A noble wolf has its pride. He couldnt be swayed by just that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hehehe. Can you also refuse this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chuck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sejun started peeling a banana.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kking?! Kking?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whats that?! Why does it smell so good?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Drawn by the unusual sweet scent different from the dried sweet potatoes, Fenrir not only turned his head but his entire body around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wag wag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His tail wagging vigorously as he drooled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kking! Kking!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hurry up and peel it! Give it to me quickly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Okay, here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Sejun hurriedly fed the eager Fenrir a banana,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chomp. Chomp. Chomp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fenrir began to eat earnestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Staaare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cuengi and Ajax were staring at Sejun with heated gazes. It was a silent signal that they also wanted bananas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alright, here. Lets eat this and then continue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus began an unexpected snack time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>II also\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Puhuhut. If you want a banana, you need to pay up, meow!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theo, in his usual sly manner, watched Uren asking for a banana and tried to get more money from him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes! I will pay!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uren, after already being fleeced of 20 money bags, yet again took out more money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ill just give this one for free.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sejun gave a bunch of bananas to Uren for free.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hehe. I am quite generous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling satisfied with himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, Im not a bully, am I?

Lets purify this quickly and return it to our Sejun! Grandpas, gather up quickly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aileen, full of enthusiasm, called out to Kaiser, Kellion, Ramter, and Tier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to her own power being insufficient to purify even 1% of the destructive power contained in Fenrirs core fragment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-Kahaha! My granddaughter! Did you call grandpa?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaiser and other dragons from the dragon council gathered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-Huh?! Whats that?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-Its bigger than the last one?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-Oh! Are we going to make a ton of money?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-Dwahaha! What shall we buy from Sejun this time?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They got excited at the sight of the walnut-sized fragment of Fenrirs core that Aileen was holding, thinking about the money they could make.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grandpas, first you need to pay me back for the black beans you used last time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had debts to repay.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-Ahem. How much is it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-100 billion Tower Coins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-What?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-Thats too expensive!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dragons were taken aback by Aileens response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black beans had improved from 12 to 16 times their effectiveness, a 33.33% increase, while the price had jumped 300% from 25 billion to 100 billion Tower Coins, which was indeed shocking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Keeheehee. Sejun said that performance and price arent necessarily proportional.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-Ahem. If our Sejun says so\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-Here it is.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dragons handed over the money they had to Aileen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Keeheehee. Thank you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After receiving the money, Aileen began to explain to the four dragons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since it will take too long to purify this, so take turns using your main bodies to purify it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-Alright. Know that it wont be fun if you guys cheat!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-If anyone is caught cheating, theyre out!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-Why not just swear a oath it in our name!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-We also need to decide the order!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following Aileens suggestion, the dragons wrote a contract and decided who would purify Fenrirs core fragment first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The agreed order was Kaiser, Tier, Ramter, and Kellion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-Kahaha! Then Im first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black dragon statue swallowed Fenrirs core fragment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pluck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Your job experience has slightly increased.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Your proficiency of Harvesting Lv. 8 has slightly increased.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[You have gained 70 experience points.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After snack time, Sejun diligently harvested mugwort again,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kueng!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Your hands smell like mugwort!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It kind of smells nice the more you smell it, doesnt it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cuengi, Ajax, and Uren also helped with harvesting mugwort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shall we sleep here tonight?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sejun swallowed a fragment of meat while looking at the darkening sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[You must eat all the Pieces to get the effect.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[150 pieces left.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ive been eating 20 pieces a day earnestly\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were still 150 pieces left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, thanks to him diligently eating the meat pieces, his Vitality skill had reached level 7.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kueng!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Its campfire time!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eeheehee!
