Master, what’s the matter? Has Slave No. 5 done something to displease you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Sejun’s defensive stance, Orik became flustered and rubbed his palms even more fervently. Did I mess up my first impression?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘What’s going on?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sejun looked at Orik with puzzlement. This was the first time he encountered a being who so readily accepted being his slave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kking?! Kking!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Hey! Who are you?! Since you’re here, you should show your belly and greet the noble Fenrir~nim!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fenrir, who was in the sling bag, barked fiercely at the newcomer Orik.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘For a sunfish to step up to protect me… I’ll let this one slide.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sejun, misunderstanding Fenrir’s intentions in barking at Orik, allowed Fenrir to avoid Ophelia’s punishment of roasted sweet potato snacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While various misunderstandings were unfolding,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘What’s that smell?!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A delicious scent wafted into Orik’s nose, who was still rubbing his palms fervently. It was the smell of the potato soup Sejun had prepared for dinner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gulp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without realizing it, Orik swallowed his saliva and looked towards the kitchen, from where the scent was emanating. It had been a long time since he had smelled something this delicious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since the land of the Brown Tower started to decay, he had been grateful to fill his stomach with whatever food was available.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But… such a delicious smell! He couldn’t resist! If he could just have a bite, he’d have no other wishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Keke… Master, can I have some food?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, he rubbed his palms together even more slyly, with utmost sincerity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A while later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slurp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Keke. Master, you must be a culinary genius!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Mental Strength increases by 1.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slurp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Keke. I’ve never had such delicious food in my entire life!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Mental Strength increases by 1.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slurp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Keke. I bet there isn’t anyone in all nine towers who can cook better than you, Master.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Mental Strength increases by 1.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orik kept praising Sejun while drinking the potato soup.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Initially wary because of Orik’s sly smile and actions, Sejun realized, Orik, you were a good guy after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘I judged you too quickly by your appearance.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeding him resulted in an increase in Mental Strength, making Orik a Mental Strength vending machine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hehe. Orik, do you want more?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reflecting on his mistake, Sejun offered more potato soup to the Mental Strength vending machine… no, Orik.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Keke. Master, it’s alright. I get full even with a small amount of food.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orik, cluelessly trying to appeal that he was a high-efficiency slave who could eat little and work a lot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The capacity of the Mental Strength vending machine was too small.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then it’s time to switch tactics!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s have some dessert now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even when you eat a full meal, there’s always a separate stomach for dessert.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Keke. Oh! This fruit called watermelon is really sweet and delicious!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Mental Strength increases by 1.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks to that, Sejun was able to raise his mental strength by 1 more while receiving Orik’s high praise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Keke. Now I really can’t eat anymore.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After eating two slices of watermelon, the Mental Strength vending machine Orik exceeded his capacity and lay on the floor with his belly exposed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kihihit. Kking! Kking!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Hehe. Fine! I’ll accept your greeting!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fenrir climbed onto Orik’s belly, lifted his head, and showed who was higher in the hierarchy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And so, after the meal ended,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Keke. By the way… Sejun~nim, how much did Grave~nim sell me for?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orik asked Sejun. Although he had been sold into slavery, Orik was curious about his worth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh? Grave~nim didn’t sell you. You became a slave because you planted my crops.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…What?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I had just asked Grave~nim to take a look, but you planted them…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orik had never been sold. He was simply unlucky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Damn it!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bearing the brunt of this misfortune alone, Orik despaired at Sejun’s answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he became a slave, Orik had cursed Grave with all sorts of profanities, blaming him for selling him out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He even wrote it on the 99th floor of the tower for Grave to see clearly, so now if he ever returned to the Brown Tower, he would be greeted with a breath attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Th-then… Sejun~nim, you won’t send me back to the Brown Tower, right? Keke. After all, I am your Slave No. 5.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orik looked at Sejun with a sly smile and desperate eyes, but\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No. You have to plant the kidney beans that Grave~nim is buying from me, you know?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orik was destined to return to the Brown Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go back and wait there while eating this. Orik, return.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh… but I can’t…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sejun gave Orik the remaining watermelon and sent him back to the Brown Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Orik left like that,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kueng!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Dad, good night!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cuengi said goodbye to Sejun and went to sleep with Pink-fur.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, guys, time to sleep.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sejun also took Black Rabbit, Ajax, and Fenrir to bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gulp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sejun ate medicinal mugwort and fainted, falling asleep. His lifespan was extended by 3 months again today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The grand mansion of the Daemon family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Da…Dave, is it true that our Uren got back 100 billion Tower Coins from ‘Told and the guys’?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uren’s mother, Hamie, asked Dave, who reported Uren’s information, in a voice full of disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Hamie~nim, I personally confirmed it. And on the way here, I heard a rumor that Young Master Uren got back 300 billion Tower Coins from the gray skunk Siron.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh! Finally, our Uren…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hamie’s eyes filled with tears at Dave’s words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But there’s a rumor that a subordinate of the Great Black Dragon is by Young Master Uren’s side.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dave reported new information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A subordinate of the Great Black Dragon?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes. He is known as Theo Park, the Golden Cat who has recently gained fame in the Black Tower these days. He’s also called the Slave King.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmmm. Dave, please continue to follow Uren for now. And also gather information about this Theo Park as well.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Understood, Hamie~nim. Then I will take my leave now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Dave left,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yuto~! Our Uren…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hamie hurried to find her husband to share the good news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>53rd floor of the Black Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uren, is this the right place, meow?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theo asked in a voice full of annoyance, thinking they had hit a dead end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes. I’m sure it’s around here, but…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uren looked back and forth between Theo and the map, speaking with uncertainty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The map he bought from the information trader clearly stated that Lizaen, who borrowed his money, was here, but there was nothing around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Meow! This won’t do, meow! I’ll find it myself, meow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theo placed his front paw on the ground and focused all his senses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Chairman Park, help me, meow!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a sincere heart, he requested help from Sejun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A breeze blew, moving Theo’s whiskers westward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Puhuhut. Chairman Park said it’s that way, meow! Follow me, meow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theo hurriedly ran west, and the others, clueless, followed him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Chairman Park, help me!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theo continued to seek Sejun’s help as he moved in the directions of northwest, southeast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They arrived back at the place Uren had initially indicated on the map. They had come full circle, returning to the original location.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unaware of this,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Chairman Park, help me, meow!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theo once again sought help from Sejun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, a breeze blew from top to bottom, causing his whiskers to point towards the ground. The map was accurate. It just failed to indicate that it was underground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s here, meow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theo shouted, pointing downwards, and then\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Meow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pressed his paw firmly against the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rumble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The immense strength transmitted from Theo’s paw permeated the ground, causing it to collapse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the secret move of Vice Chairman Theo, called Meow-Press Fist, created while pressing against Sejun’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Piyo!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Theo~nim, there’s a passageway here!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As expected of Theo~nim!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Piyot and Uren shouted, looking at the hole revealed by the collapsed ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Puhuhut. As expected of Chairman Park, meow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theo praised Sejun as he entered the passageway connected to Lizaen’s secret hideout.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That fool said he couldn’t lend me a large sum because he didn’t trust me. Do you know what I told him?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The newly hired hostess shook her head while filling Lizaen’s glass to the brim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I told him if he didn’t trust me, he could keep my tail as collateral and lend me the money.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What? Your tail? But even if our tails get cut off, they grow back…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exactly. But he didn’t know that. Hahaha.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Lizaen was boasting about how he made a fortune,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rumble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ground shook.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s going on? Hey, go find out what’s happening.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lizaen commanded the mercenaries he had hired at a high price.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thud! Thud!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a sound of something soft being hit, and then,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Puhuhut. Found it, meow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A yellow cat entered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following the cat, a snow-white bird with a bundle of papers in its beak entered, and\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Theo~nim, that’s Lizaen!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lastly, Uren, the fool who had made him rich, entered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uren?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes! You scoundrel! Why did you deceive me?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uren shouted angrily at Lizaen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hahaha! What are you talking about? It’s the fool’s fault for being deceived, not mine for deceiving.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lizaen sneered at Uren.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey, cat, think it over. I don’t know how much that fool is paying you, but you’d make a lot more by just robbing him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then tried to tempt Theo to steal Uren’s money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lizaen had a lot of money and valued his life, so he only hired strong mercenaries. However, this cat had easily dealt with the mercenaries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘There’s no chance of winning by force…’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, he tried to sow discord between Theo and Uren.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shut up, meow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was a very wrong choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theo quickly knocked out Lizaen, who was trying to shake his resolve. That was close, meow! It was the whisper of the devil, meow!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Lizaen fainted,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Piyo!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Theo~nim, the stamp is done!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Piyot pressed Lizaen’s thumb onto the contract.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Um… Theo~nim, can I have just 100 hits…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Puhuhut. 10 billion Tower Coins, meow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uren handed the money to Theo and\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You scoundrel! It’s your fault for deceiving me, not mine for being deceived!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whack. Whack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hit Lizaen. Uren seemed to be gradually showing signs of breaking away from being a sucker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Puhuhut. Now let’s find the money, meow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theo wandered around Lizaen’s hideout, searching for the secret vault and opened it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There are only 2.1 trillion Tower Coins, meow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lizaen had already spent 2.2 trillion Tower Coins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Smack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theo woke Lizaen up and asked about the whereabouts of the money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha! I spent it all on having fun. I had a blast thanks to you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lizaen sneered, saying he had spent it all on entertainment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no way to recover the money Uren had lent him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Meow…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of contemplation, Theo soon found a way to get the money back. As always.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Puhuhut. That looks good, meow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theo smiled broadly, looking at Lizaen’s teeth made of brown gemstones. There seemed to be at least 30 of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Puhuhut.
