Chapter 67

Korea University in Seoul.

Lee Seona was holding her head due to the newly received assignment this time.

“Awakener interview? Where have to contact?”

That too of all things a group assignment.

Her friends who became the same group together with Lee Seona were also each worrying which guild to contact.

“A, come to think of it didn’t Seona’s oppa is an awakener?”

“What? Really?”

All the friends’ gazes headed to Seona.

At the sudden atmosphere change Seona slightly flustered and waved hands.

“No, our oppa is an awakener right but...”

“Wow, jackpot! Then if asking Seona’s hyung fine!”

Lee Seona showed a troubled air.

Usually longing for awakeners right but almost never thought of her oppa Lee Gyuseong as an awakener.

‘Recently joined an amazing guild called Ara Hongryeon but that also not realized...’

Recently looking at the crops brought home certainly felt Gyuseong is an awakener right, but to begin with different from the appearance of awakeners people commonly expect.

An awakener farming!

Not saying but honestly dumbfounded.

Especially as Lee Seona an awakener mania cognitive dissonance occurred at Gyuseong’s actions and ability that differ from ordinary awakeners.

That’s why until now almost never said the fact her oppa is an awakener.

Of all things the only close friend who knows this fact revealed.

“...For now I’ll try asking oppa. Still don’t expect greatly. High probability of not working.”

“Good! Wow, thanks to that lived. This assignment just eat free?”

Unlike Seona’s words the group members already airs of confirming the interview. At those dizzy appearances Lee Seona slightly swayed but soon forcibly thought positively.

‘Yeah. What about our oppa. Just a bit unique ability and utilization but awakener right?’

No, to begin with Gyuseong is that famous Ara Hongryeon’s awakener not! Nothing to be inferior!

...and forcibly mind controlled.

Lee Seona as the words came out immediately left a text to her oppa Gyuseong.

-Orabeoni, have you been well until now. Not particularly but this girl, has one request...

* * *

Blankly at the unexpected water baptism then soon came to senses.

“River water?”

Right beside a river attached so thought the water from the river side connected here but me who was hit by the water that surged to the sky and fell tilted head.

“Hot?”

No, not to the extent hot but a warm feeling. At the contrasting temperature with cold river water casually looking at the place water spurting before I knew it water a bit received.

“Lee Gyuseong Gyuseong! What on earth is this! Swimming pool!”

Ara showed a fully excited air and jumped bang bang, Gomgomi covering the head due to the water falling from the sky and jumping around in circles.

“Wait a bit.”

Just in case worried if harmful components. Before I knew it the water poured from the split boulder gap was even emitting faint steam and an unknown fragrance spread.

‘Not perfume and what smell is this?’

Not a nauseating or bad mood smell.

A good fragrance spreading subtly. If forcibly possessing a sommelier and expressing a smell like freshly baked bread and old walnut fragrance, a bit of scent of roasting coffee faintly and fresh tree scent too.

Lick!

Before I knew it Gomgomi stopped jumping around and lay on all fours and was licking the unknown identity water filled in the paddy.

“I try eating too!”

“Eeh...”

Ara who can digest anything no worry but Gomgomi a bit caught.

I immediately grabbed Gomgomi with both hands and raised.

-Krung?

“Can’t pick up and eat anything recklessly.”

Don’t know if understood my words but Gomgomi pointed at Ara and struggled as if protesting why me not.

Sip!

“Oh! Delicious?”

Ara sat crouched and put mouth to the water and drank a bit then tilted head. An ambiguous reaction whether delicious or not.

No before that right drinking water?

Due to the unexpected event work paused for a moment. Leaving the unknown identity liquid spurting like a fountain and decided to care about the field first.

Anyway if time passes will calm.

And might be mood but somehow that liquid not harmful.

“Came to work so have to work.”

First among the seeds brought worried what to plant first.

“Dungeon plant first. What name attach this?”

The fruit that tastes like bread Ara said made staple here. Seeds obtained generously so no problem planting.

Raising also ultimately the slimes’ share so no worry.

“Gosogoso!”

“...Gosogoso?”

Word choice quite dangerous, Ara.

According to Ara’s opinion who showed a naming sense that might misunderstand if hearing vaguely ultimately this plant that tastes like bread became ‘gosogoso’.

...Is this right?

“Then catch about 200 pyeong gosogoso fine?”

Don’t know how much the harvest amount.

Said the more the better but since became like this decided to use all the 1,000 pyeong field made now for planting gosogoso.

Then the remaining seeds?

‘Chili pepper, lettuce, onion, garlic!’

Since decided like this the remaining crops also each generously make 1,000 pyeong each. Actually compared to people who do real farm work 1,000 pyeong not that generous.

Just the difference with those people I not mass producing one crop but producing various kinds of crops little by little.

This possible also ultimately thanks to the excellent workers called slimes.

“Ara, have to make more fields.”

“Ooh! Plowing aaa!!”

Ara who emitted the battle cry once more with a serious face raised the hoe.

I asked Ara to make four more 1,000 pyeong areas. Like that while Ara plowing the field planted gosogoso seeds in the field made first.

“Meticulously, meticulously...”

-Kang?

Gomgomi thinking called himself approached and tilted head. Then watching what I was doing started following.

Awkwardly digging soil and putting a pebble there then covering well appearance.

Without knowing laughter was made.

“Gomgomi also want to try?”

-Krung!

Divided a bit of seeds.

Then though awkward started diligently planting seeds in the field crookedly.

Planting like that later when raising or harvesting a bit annoying but fine.

Anyway the slimes become hard not me hard.

“...Momentarily a feeling of possessed by a wicked landlord...”

Illusion right? I’m a slime welfare worker.

The work of planting seeds entirely me and Gomgomi did. In the meantime the slimes porong went to watch Ara then came to watch me and Gomgomi again and played freely.

“Hoo, this hardest.”

Actually plowing the field too, all other farm work the other kids do so the work of sowing seeds particularly felt hard.

But actually planting seeds one by one by hand without the help of farm machinery quite a laborious matter.

“Now seems planted about 200 pyeong.”

In its own way Gomgomi helping but with that awkward footwork the level of planting one seed in 1 minute. Ultimately most work the same as doing alone.

“Uoo! All plowed!”

In the meantime Ara who already overturned land of 4,000 pyeong ran to me with a majestic appearance.

I praised for doing well and stroked the head then said eat Leila and mattang brought as snack.

“Mattang~ Mattang~!”

When Ara went to rummage the backpack Gomgomi awkwardly stood up then waddled and followed. That appearance like a scene of a fairy tale seen in childhood so without knowing laughter came out.

“Heup! Let’s do hard!”

Simple labor so just time takes long but as an awakener stamina or body fine.

I once more put spirit and started planting seeds.

* * *

“Wow, good work!”

“Many delicious things come out?”

“Yeah!”

Ultimately did it.

Actually excluding gosogoso seeds the remaining seeds all brought only about 200 pyeong amount so just planting total 1,800 pyeong land end.

Moreover later Ara who ate snack helped me so could finish the work much faster and easier.

‘Chili pepper, lettuce, onion, garlic each 200 pyeong. And gosogoso 1,000 pyeong. Land wide so to manage here...’

The slime to manage Gluttony’s dungeon farm already decided in advance. That exactly!

“Mark Two! From now you are the person in charge here!”

Undulate!

Already gave a hint before coming here so the guy undulated without flustered sign. And not only this guy.

“Recruits! You also will live here!”

Wriggle!?

The recruits flinched as if not expected.

But soon looked around then undulated as if to liking.

Even I thinking here much better than the infinite dungeon.

‘Um, still too empty plain.’

No matter slime but my precious family. At least a space to avoid rain and wind needed.

And if making such a space anyway wanted to make a separate place for me to stay too.

‘Architecture! Architecture needed!’

And know an expert in this field!

That too the closest person to me!

“Dad chance!”

Now doing wallpaper or interior but actually our father was a construction worker. A kind of president of a small construction company but investing in me operated money excessively and went bankrupt.

Now a situation of barely paying all debt. So now I earn money and have to request the architecture here to father.

‘...This feeling of only making work when not enough even doing filial piety.’

Briefly worried but no clever plan came. Just stealthily say words to father. As also showing the dungeon bring and show in a short time.

Then, so for now focus on farming first.

“Now my turn ended! I’ll pass the turn!”

The slimes who looked at me with appearances of what nonsense started wriggling and moving. Soon crawled the dry field and moistened moistly.

Still seeing crawling much slower than when just moving seemed doing some work.

Because land wide seemed take quite time.

I rather this opportunity completely entrust the field and decided to go see Alpheheim.

‘Confirm if Meluca flowers growing well and give Dokdok’s poison.’

Additionally collect the mushrooms Gomgomi said.

Probably Gomgomi will find.

Organized the camping supplies and packed only Bokkeum.

Mark Two and the two recruits left in the field greeted us as if seeing off then concentrated on work again.

“That much like work?”

“Fun!”

Ara also a slime so speculation or lie not. To begin with already known fact but as a human me an incomprehensible fun.

Work... fun?

“Let’s depart.”

“Going!”

This time not looking around and thought of advancing straight to the World Tree.

Put Bokkeum on the head and Gomgomi held in Ara’s arms.

Like that walking without looking aside certainly the entrance of the forest soon started visible. Actually expressed as soon but still took about 2 hours.

‘Last time took about half a day so great progress.’

The difference when going a known road and unknown road here.

Arrived at the entrance so shall rest a bit and looking at Ara Ara’s gaze strange.

“What looking at?”

“That!”

“Hm?”

Turning the gaze suddenly a strong wind rushed.

Huwaaang----!!

“Uuk! What!”

Reflexively closed eyes and opened me surprised at something that appeared in front of the eyes and froze as is.

Huung-!

A huge monster emitting tremendous pressure.

An exterior of a four-legged beast, that appearance similar to an animal appearing in myths.

“Haetae?”
