Chapter 3
Crunchy.
The leaves of the green onion made a cheerful sound and were cut easier than expected. The taste was good.
Hwaa.
As soon as I chewed the green onion, the spicy taste spread in my mouth. My body felt hot from the spicy taste. The pores opened and sweat flowed like rain.
Well well.
Sejun continued to chew the green onion while wiping away the sweat. However, the expected sweetness did not come out.
'I thought the spiciness would have been stronger, so
the sweetness would have been stronger …'
gulp.
When I swallowed the green onion, the spiciness disappeared neatly. Fortunately, I didn't even feel sick to my stomach.
'I can eat the spicy green onion when I pull it.'
crunchy
Sejun continued to eat the spicy green onion. First, I had to satisfy my hunger.
It seems that Sejun ate a handful of green onions while sweating profusely. For some reason, the more I sweated, the lighter my body felt.
Pudeudeuk. Pudeudeuk.
Sejun, who had filled his stomach with green onions, mercilessly broke the green onions that shaded his place. It wasn't that I didn't take my anger out because I never tasted sweetness.
'Um… Let's make it absolutely nothing. Because I was expecting a bit.'
The cut green onions are laid out in a sunny place. I started my day a little late today thanks to green onions, but it didn't matter. I have to say it's a routine…
babbling.
After watering the crops for a while,
"..."
I was staring blankly at the hole in the ceiling.
Still, I have something to soothe my boredom.
I stared at the ceiling for a while and hit the bruises. When I saw the green onions, the green onions had already grown.
"Do green onions grow this fast?"
I wondered if it was because of my mood, so I even measured the time with my smartphone. The digging grew about 10 cm per hour. astounding growth rate. Sejun had no farming experience, but he thought this was impossible.
"Is it because you grew up in a tower?"
That was the only thing to doubt. Pada bought at the mart. If the seed was originally a green onion that grows at a rate of 10 cm per hour, there would be no way for the word "golden onion pateke" to come out.
"But there is no news from them."
Sejun looked at the spot where the cherry tomatoes and sweet potatoes planted on both sides of the green onion were planted. If the soil has good fertility, other things will grow well too.
But nothing changed on the ground.
"Is the land good for growing green onions?"
Just in case, I looked more carefully.
"uh?!"
If you look carefully, the land where the sweet potatoes were planted was the same, but the soil where the cherry tomatoes were planted seemed a little convex. Sejun knelt down on the floor and stared at the convexly rising ground.
"oh!"
there was!
(…i…)
Among the soil, greenish stems shyly emerged with glossy blue hair.
"One, two, three…"
There were 52 buds in total. Sejun looked at the cherry tomato sprouts for a while.
"Hehehe. It's cute."
Plants grown from seeds. I was proud and reassured just by looking at this.

Beep beep beep beep beep.
[May 15th, 6:00 am]
Sejun greeted the morning of the 6th day. Yesterday, I spent the whole day looking at cherry tomato sprouts. It didn't grow rapidly like a green onion, but it grew little by little every time, so I was full even if I didn't eat rice.
"Eutcha!"
Sejun lightly stood up from his seat. These days, my body was getting lighter day by day. At first, I thought it was because I was tired from overwork, but recently I started thinking that maybe it wasn't.
"Let's see. Did our buds grow a lot?"
As soon as Sejun got up, he washed his face and left behind to eat and went to see cherry tomato sprouts. I was so curious about how much he would have grown while he was sleeping.
"oh!"
(…"…)
The blue hair at the tip of the sprouts was slightly split. However, a black shadow was hanging over the sprouts. The green onions grew to Sejun's height again before he knew it, blocking the light that should reach the cherry tomato sprouts. Sejun
ruthlessly
picked off the
leaves
of
the
green
onion .
I filled the container with water and
moistened
the soil around the cherry tomato sprouts and the green onion and
sweet potato field
. "
I have to eat breakfast.
"
Sejun popped a freshly cut green onion into his mouth.
Crunchy. Crunchy.
Yesterday, instead of sweet potatoes and cherry tomatoes, he ate only green onion leaves, so he realized that he could satisfy his hunger. I
didn't feel hungry or lose energy. I also felt that carbohydrates were absorbed for some reason.
And above all, the amount was large. Growing up to about 180cm a day, it was rather difficult to treat because there were too many
. .'
Looking at the current situation, it is unlikely that the green onions that grow so well will suddenly stop growing, but
I decided to prepare just in case
. Puck, Puck, Sejun
dug up
the soil and planted cherry tomatoes and sweet potatoes,
and babbling
, "Grow up quickly
", pouring enough water over it, and saying, " Grow quickly."
I sat on a flat rock that was well lifted. I was proud of doing something productive.
"The sky is nice."
The blue sky was high and clear. People's hearts were so cunning. Until yesterday, I thought it was frustrating, but today it looked good. " Come to think of it, I've been staring at the sky for days and days.
"
I haven't seen the sky properly for days when I'm at work…
but it
's nice." If only I had coffee here…"
I really wanted an iced Americano with extra shots. I missed civilized life so much.
As
Sejun looked up at the sky and thought of city life ,
he beeped. I set it to low power mode and only looked at the screen when necessary
, but I couldn't completely prevent battery consumption.
A smartphone that tells the time was more useful.
The lights came on.
The laptop screen came on and the Excel window I was working on popped up. It was a project I was trying to finish at home because I couldn't finish it at the company because of the estimate I was sending to the client. Click.
Sejun
. I coolly closed the Excel window. Of course, I didn't save anything. It was a quote I had been hanging on to for several days, but I wasn't sorry at all. And it must have already been too late. "Someone else will do it instead of me
.
" It wasn't even a situation.
Sejun connected his smartphone and laptop and charged the phone. The laptop also turned on the low power mode to reduce battery consumption.
And while the smartphone was charging, he looked at the cherry tomato sprouts.
It feels good to see it again and again. As I
was looking at the cherry tomato sprouts for a long time,
water
dripped from above
. Is it raining?"
Sejun knew he didn't even say it. Except for a few floors, the tower is always sunny.
'Could it be a monster?!' When he thought of
the
monster that was drooling and looking down at him, he got goosebumps. Sejun hurriedly looked up,
but
in a hole in the ceiling, a small white rabbit was looking down and drooling.
'Is that a monster too?' While Sejun was
wondering if
the rabbit in front of him
was
a vicious monster
, beep
!
He unconsciously reached out for the rabbit, who might be a monster,
but the rabbit used its long ears to control the direction of the fall, avoiding Sejun's hand, stepping on Sejun's shoulder once with both feet, and landing safely on the floor.
" ."
It was very embarrassing to be reaching out in the air.
At that time
, beep.
The rabbit walked on two legs and cautiously approached, pointing at the green onion with a trembling finger. Seeing it walking on two legs, it wasn't just a rabbit.
"Can I eat it?"
Beep!
The rabbit answered and nodded vigorously. His eyes were full of earnestness asking for his consent
.
"
Come
on .
"
He began to eat the green onion he gave him frantically. While the rabbit was eating the
green
onion, Sejun broke off the leaves of the green onion. While he was picking it, he decided to break it all. From now on,
Sejun will do it once at 6:00 in the morning and once at 2:00 in the afternoon. I was thinking of cutting the green onion. That way, the cherry tomato sprouts will be harmed. The rabbit still ate the
green
onion eagerly. Even so, it only ate two finger lengths.
Sejun looked at rabbits like that . looked back at
the
cherry
tomatoes
.
Gorolong.
I heard the sound of the rabbit sleeping next to me. It seemed to be sleepy when I was full. It was cute to see him sleeping soundly. At that time, he must have felt
Sejun's gaze
and
the
rabbit
woke up
.
Beep!
Jumped with a powerful cry.
Chuck.
The rabbit lightly climbed up the hole with a green onion in one hand.
Beep.
Before the rabbit left, he bowed his head to Sejun and thanked him.
"You just eat and run away?"
Although he was ungrateful, Sejun also waved his hand. It was short-lived, but it was nice.
While
Sejun was waving, the rabbit
left .
Leaving behind the emptiness, I looked at the cherry tomato sprouts again, and
in the meantime, the sprouts energized their leaves to bloom more fully
. After a while
, as if
(…Y…)
knew Sejun was waiting, the cherry tomato sprouts began to spread out two green leaves one by one. [May 15th at 10:00 pm] The alarm
went
off to announce the evening.
But
I didn't want to sleep today. I wanted to keep watching the sprouts grow and fall asleep.
"… !"
slap. slap.
Sejun woke up feeling something lightly hit him on the cheek.
"Huh? What is it?"
When I opened my eyes, I saw the rabbit who had run away yesterday waking Sejun up by slapping him on the cheek
. What time is it?"
Sejun checked the time. [May 16th
, 5:00 am]
It was an hour earlier than the usual time
. He was
wearing a straw hat
and
holding a watering can in his hand.
At that
moment
, he heard another rabbit
cry
.
The rabbit met eyes and greeted politely.
"What is this situation?"
On the 7th day of distress, I got up a little early and the rabbit couple joined the cave.
One day, a mysterious tower suddenly appeared in the city. The people decided to call it a dungeon, and while it was full of rugged terrain and dangerous monsters, it was also a land of opportunity, where countless treasures awaited. When Sejun, a young man living an ordinary life, is invited to the dungeon by chance, he is thrilled at the prospect of becoming rich, but he is stranded in a hidden area of the mysterious tower. All he has is a few seeds and his body. Now Sejun must farm, collect resources, and figure out his own survival strategy!
