Great hybrid Chairman Park is narrow-minded, so if you tease him, he’ll definitely sulk and not give you any roasted and dried sweet potatoes, meow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theo advised Blackie and Mukbupal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Puhuhut.

What’s this smell?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly covered his nose and mouth with his hands as the stench pierced his nostrils.

Maintain cleanliness!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Realizing belatedly that the smell came from his own body, Sejun quickly used the skill to wash off the poop smell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Puhuhut.

Maintain cleanliness.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sejun washed his right hand with his skill, disappointed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then suddenly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Why is Blackie so quiet?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He should’ve made a fuss, saying he’d been tricked, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or at least act all smug for not getting tricked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a question in mind, Sejun looked at Blackie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kking… Kking…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Got fooled… Great Blackie got played by the butler…]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blackie appeared in shock, holding his nose. It seemed he had removed his gas mask before Sejun washed his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hehehe. It really makes the prank worthwhile to have our gullible Blackie around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After washing his hands completely, Sejun hugged the dear Blackie who fell for his prank and put him into his sling bag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But guys, what happened? How did I end up unconscious and even smelling like poop? And weirdly, my body feels light too?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He asked about the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Puhuhut. I, Vice Chairman Theo…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theo explained the situation to Sejun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Really?! I transformed again?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is this the third time now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or the fourth if I count when my bones were changed to dragon bones?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Sejun was counting the number of times he had undergone transformation,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This wasn’t the time to be counting such things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No wonder my body feels so light. Guys, thank you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sincerely expressed his gratitude to the group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theo, who always devoted himself to Sejun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Iona, who suffered while following Theo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cuengi, the son who only thought of his dad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blackie Family, who quit being Apostles of Destruction and came along, despite being so easily fooled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They all had gone through so much for his sake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was treatment far beyond what he deserved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What am I even…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unknowingly, Sejun let his heart speak aloud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Puhuhut. If someone asks who the great hybrid Chairman Park is, it is only natural that we answer in his stead, meow! Everyone, tell us who Chairman Park is, meow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. He’s the Chairman of Sejun Company!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kuehehehe. Kueng!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Hehehe. He’s Cuengi’s dad!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kihihit. Kking!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Hihit. He’s the Great Blackie’s butler!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group members responded to Sejun’s words. They answered who Sejun was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honestly, they weren’t exactly profound answers, but to Sejun, they were more touching than any other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Puhuhut. On top of that, Chairman Park is the man who gulped down 1,000 trillion Tower Coins meow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until Theo said that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I gulped down 1,000 trillion Tower Coins? What does that mean?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Puhuhut. I, Vice Chairman Theo, burned all of Chairman Park’s wealth to heal his body, meow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You burned all of that on my body?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At Theo’s answer, Sejun slumped down helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Puhuhut.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lick. Lick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theo climbed onto Sejun’s lap and began grooming himself and Iona, who clung to his tail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kuehehehe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cuengi also clung to Sejun’s side and closed his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kihihit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guys, this is our chance!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blackie, along with his subordinates, launched a covert operation aiming for the roasted and dried sweet potatoes in Sejun’s pocket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blank stare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘With that kind of money, I could’ve bought Earth and had change left over…’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sejun was so shocked from losing 1,000 trillion Tower Coins that he couldn’t come to his senses for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A bit later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I spent that much money, so something must have changed, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With anticipation, Sejun checked his status window. His body felt lighter and stronger, so he was sure his stats had increased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What?! Why haven’t they gone up even a bit?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no change in his stats. The improved efficiency of his body due to the transformation had caused Sejun to misunderstand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, there was one thing that had changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>→ A remarkable talent that allows one to surpass limits to some extent through effort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>→ All base potential for stats increases to 1000.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>→ Receive 10 bonus stats every time you level up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>→ When effort toward something exceeds a certain level, stat increase, skill acquisition, and talent awakening may occur.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The once ‘Beyond Mediocre’ had evolved into a ‘Hardworking Talent’.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A meager result compared to the enormous amount of money spent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theo had used healing magic to treat and strengthen Sejun’s bones, muscles, heart, and more, but the body’s design remained the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Changing that design was impossible, no matter how much money one had. Unless one was reborn. The law of unchanging blueprints applied here too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next best option was to continue undergoing transformations periodically to expel waste whenever the body deteriorated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I feel like Chairman Park’s face is rotting meow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sejun’s body was already beginning to deteriorate again. Fortunately, the speed at which it was decaying was significantly slower than before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was because the evolution of his talent had increased his base potential from 100 to 1000.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where once he had endured immense stats with a potential of 100, now he was doing so with 1000, reducing the burden by tenfold. It was similar to a rubber band becoming more elastic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just a talent change, and that’s it…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sejun faced the disappointing result.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I need to earn even harder!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He realized anew that he was the biggest money-consuming hippo and decided to work even more diligently to earn money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Guys, let’s head back to the Black Cuengi Ship.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For now, Sejun returned to the ship and stamped the pirate crew, who were under surveillance by the Planet-Destroying Turtles, as full-time employees of Sejun Company.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll give you your missions.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He instructed the pirates to shift from piracy to a business of dimensional trade and providing security to worlds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Iona, let’s go home now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Yes!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Iona’s dimensional transfer magic, they returned to the Black Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ritna Trading Company Branch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Here is my resignation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Hett submitted his resignation,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hett, you’re leaving our trading company?!

Hett, from now on you are no longer part of the Ritna Trading Company!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vank hurriedly replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bukbuk!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[You must become a subordinate of Cuengi-nim!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bukbuk No. 23 did not let Vank off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The answer was, of course, yes. In the face of a destruction beam, everything was a yes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And so, Vank also betrayed the Ritna Trading Company and joined Sejun Company.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, following the long-standing(?) tradition of Sejun Company, Hett, who joined first, became Vank’s superior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Vank will now be the youngest member of the Lottery Department.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hett was no longer the youngest in the Lottery Department.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Aileen, I’m home.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as Sejun arrived home, he informed Aileen of his return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah.
