Chapter 408 – Farm Story: Vespin Town
Seong-il disposed of all the Matna series except for the ‘Matna Teapot’ for Elaine. He starts discussing farm management with the Kukuru.
“Seongil!! Then!! See you tomorrow!!”
“Huh.”
Seong-il entrusts the branches of the World Tree to the Kukuru and returns to the farm.
‘This is so easy to solve because of the delicious series.’
The results are unbelievable even now. Seong-il holds the messenger of destruction in his arms and scratches the guy’s chin.
『Golong…Golong…』
In the form of a puppy, the messenger satisfactorily accepts Seongil’s touch and starts growling like a cat.
‘First of all… Since the six Kukuru said they take care of the crops every day from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, can I stop worrying about crop management?’
‘Besides, one of the seven Kukuru said that he would take full responsibility for growing the branches of the World Tree, so the World Tree is no problem… Then, let’s focus on the main quest soon.’
After organizing his thoughts, Seong-il moves to the goddess statue in the pond that was installed in the morning.
“Oh… There’s a beehive over there!!”
A beehive that yielded good quality honey once a day in the game. Seong-il casts a shadow around his body to neutralize the bees’ resistance to sting him, then plucks the beehive like lightning.
‘I was able to get honey once a day in the game… But it’s impossible here.’
A colony of bees that disintegrates in an instant when the house is destroyed, perhaps because the reality is reflected faithfully. Leaving her bees behind, he approaches the statue of her goddess, sets down her hive, and begins her prayers to her.
“Great Harvest Goddess! A follower who wants your blessings makes this tribute. Bless my farm…”
Seong-il lightly recites her prayers, which the main character did in-game. Seong-il then picks up her hive and throws it into the pond.
With a plop!!
‘…Really, will a goddess appear like in a game?’
Seong-il repeats exactly what the main character did in the game. However, he waits for the appearance of the goddess with a slightly anxious expression.
“What? It’s been a long time since I’ve received a tribute?』
“!!!”
The Goddess of Harvest actually appeared. She had emerald hair and eyes just like the game.
‘Oh… Look at the skin…?’
The appearance of a harvest goddess with clear features and snow-white skin.
‘…Look at the breast size?’
The Goddess of Harvest who wears a strange bikini-like top over a skirt despite being a goddess. She was proud of her voluptuous breasts, befitting the word ‘harvest’.
Unlike her face, which looks innocent thanks to her, the goddess with a voluptuous body has an appearance that combines innocence and lust.
‘Fuck, I really want to eat.’
The appearance of a goddess that stimulates men’s lust. However, Seong-il hides her impure inner thoughts and responds to her with a respectful attitude towards her goddess.
“Are you… The goddess of harvest?”
“Yes!! That’s right! Nice to meet you?”
“Uh… It’s an honor to descend directly to an ordinary being like me.”
“Whoa! So? I don’t usually show myself myself either! Lately, most of my followers have disappeared! I’m glad I came here in person!!”
Contrary to her appearance, she is a harvest goddess who seems to have a very easy-going personality.
‘I like her personality too…?’
When the charm of her goddess, which could not be read in her game text, is revealed, her greed for her begins to rise from the depths of her holy day.
“Thank you for visiting our farm! From now on, I will make an offering for the Goddess!!”
“Wow! Really? Thanks!! Let’s see… The first offering is… Oh! My favorite sweet honey? Nice?”
The goddess of harvest has a fresh smile and she likes it like a child.
“Umm~ Shall I give a gift to my first follower who has appeared in a while? Let’s see… What would be good…?”
Goddess thinking about something. After a while, she opens a subspace similar to her inventory, and takes out a shiny golden apple from there.
“Now! Take it! It’s a golden apple!”
“Eek!? You’re giving me something so precious when we first meet?”
In fact, we know from her gameplay that she gives her a golden apple as a congratulation for her on their first meeting, but her seongil tries to make her goddess feel better by taking extravagant action.
“Whoops! Originally, it’s a precious item, so I don’t give it easily~ But since I’m a follower after a long time, I’ll give it to you as a souvenir! I don’t give you something like this every day! Okay?”
“Yes! Of course!”
“If you eat that apple, you will be full of energy? Not only that, but you will be cured of quite a few diseases!”
‘If the main character ate this apple, did he permanently increase his health by one square? If you lose blood, they’ll even fill it up with full blood.’
As Seong-il fiddles with her apple and seems to be moved, the goddess smiles in satisfaction and she continues her words to him.
“By the way! When you make an offering that I’m satisfied with, or if you make an offering I want, I’ll grant you a small ‘wish’! If not, I’ll give you a very special gift like now!!”
‘Oh… Then… Will you accept ‘that thing’ as a wish?’
Upon hearing the words of her goddess, her holy day begins to take on insidious thoughts. However, hiding her feelings, he questions the goddess.
“Perhaps…Then what would you like to receive as a tribute now?”
“Um~~”
Goddess thinking for a while.
“Ah! For some reason, I want mithril from the mines in this town?”
‘Look at this bitch?’
The goddess of harvest who, absurdly, hopes for a rare mineral that comes out only after going down to the 30th floor of the mine as a tribute.
‘To mine a mithril, even if you’re a high-profile player, you’ll have to raise your character for about a year in terms of game time.
Seong-il is taken aback by her absurd request, but after desperately suppressing her irritation, he responds politely to her.
“That’s the will of the goddess, so I’ll do my best to save Mithril!”
“Whoops!! Thanks! By the way!! I don’t prefer to receive as tribute items you bought from someone else! I only want to receive items you worked hard for as tribute, so I hope you try yourself~”
‘Patience…’
She’s practically a harvest goddess who nailed it not to play shop. Seong-il is taken aback by the appearance of a line that does not appear in the game.
‘Well… There was no separate line like this, but in reality, the main character could only offer crops from his field or treasures from the mine as tribute…’
So her holy day bids her farewell to her after a few chats with her goddess.
***
“Oh…The work is quick…?”
The Kukuru who appeared at the farm on Holy Day early in the morning. They took out the seeds Seong-il had received from Mayor Tommy the day before and planted them on Seong-il’s farm.
“Yaho~ Heehee~”
“…”
Cuckoos running all over the place making strange noises. Every time they run around like that, the little overgrown weeds start to be removed in an instant.
“All right. All right. I really have nothing more to do.”
Thinking so, Seong-il takes out the follower summon ticket he received after completing the sub-quest the previous day.
“Should I summon Yuna…? Where should I summon him…”
Seong-il starts looking for a place to summon Yuna.
‘Ummm… My house hasn’t been expanded yet, so it’s a bit narrow, right? It has the advantage of being able to sleep while kneading Yuna in the evening, but…’
‘The problem is that Yuna has to make all kinds of japtem, so I think it’s better to summon her in a wider area…’
Seong-il, who was so worried. He gathers his thoughts and looks towards the barn.
‘Shall I just… Summon them to the congratulations? Only horses are stalls, there are no animals yet, and it’s spacious.’
However, no matter how empty it is, the barn is a barn. Because of this, Seong-il feels sorry for Yuna and begins to worry a little.
‘Eight! Let’s just summon to the celebration! There is also the 『Comfortable Sleeping Bag』 Obtained from the lottery last time, so Yuna should be able to live there for a while. I’ll have my alter ego as a permanent assistant and provide furniture so that I can convert it into a workshop, and there will be no problem!!’
There might be a sleeping bag with a permanent cleaning magic and temperature control function that was pulled from a lottery a while ago. Seong-il just chooses a congratulatory speech that is easy for Yuna to work on as her summoning place.
“Meal, well… It’s delicious. There’s a boxed lunch and an infinite canteen left, so let’s fill it up…”
Dozens of delicious series obtained through drawing. When it is finally put to good use through this opportunity, Seong-il feels a strange inspiration come to him.
“Let’s try summoning first… If Yuna feels animosity, move the summoning place to a different place… Huh?”
While thinking about it, Seong-il realizes that a woman he is familiar with has come to the farm.
‘…Isn’t that Katrina?’
Her holy day, looking at her without her self-knowledge. As if feeling his gaze, Katrina raises her hand and starts waving it at him.
“Hey! Are you busy?”
“Huh? No what…”
“Did you clean up the farm very quickly? Did you hire someone to clean it up in the last few days?”
“…Well, you can see that.”
Interestingly, Katrina didn’t seem to be aware of the kukuru’s right after her holy day at all.
‘Come to think of it, during the game play, during the time the Kukuru were working, no one from the village ever visited the farm, right?’
‘That’s interesting. Perhaps the Kukuru cast a stealth spell that no one can see except for the contractor?’
Interesting behavior patterns of Kukuru. But think about it for a while. Seong-il starts serving her guests.
“By the way, what’s the matter?”
“Why? You were supposed to come to your farm when you finish appraising yesterday.”
“Ah…”
A fact I forgot for a moment. Katrina takes a sapphire from her bosom and hands it to her saint.
“…Why is this?”
“You… Did you injure your head? Yesterday, when I was getting the farm equipment, I left Ruby as payment and Sapphire as deposit.”
Katrina shoots Seong-il with a slightly dumbfounded expression. However, despite her sharp words, her seongil is not offended in the slightest and answers her.
“Ah… That’s right. Were the jewels okay?”
“Yeah. There was no problem at all.”
“Oh, that’s good. There’s no problem, so the gear is mine now, right?”
“…Okay.”
“Good, good. Thanks to you, I put out the urgent fire. Thank you.”
Seong-il takes the sapphire from Katrina and puts it in her arms.
“What, your parents don’t say anything?”
“… I’ll organize the inventory, so my dad won’t notice. And if I manipulate the ledger based on the proceeds from selling the jewels you gave me, there won’t be any problem.”
“Oh… Can you tell me that?”
“What’s wrong? I didn’t do anything that harmed the store. My dad is weird. He’s conservative in useless places, so…”
Having said that, Katrina looked at him with a strange expression without listening to her Holy Day’s answer, and then she carefully brought up the subject she was curious about.
“You… But why did you hand over the expensive jewelry at such a low price? I honestly checked to see if it was stolen through a police officer I know, but there was no problem at all… Why the hell…?”
‘Okay… First of all, I asked for rice cakes.’
When Katrina wants to bite the rice cake she threw at her, her seong-il thinks intriguingly in her mind. However, he puts on his signature shameless acting and starts shamelessly reciting the lies he had laid out the day before.
“Well… I have a lot of money, but I don’t have time, so I’m just spending it roughly.”
“What nonsense? Is that…?”
Incomprehensible words of Holy Day. Because Katrina looks at her holy day like an idiot.
“Um… I’m terminally ill.”
“!!!”
“What do you do if you have a lot of money? They say that because of the disease, you don’t have much time left to live.”
“What… What?!”
A word from a shocking holy day. When Katrina looks surprised at those words, her Seong-il continues her words to her, acting on her pitiful expression.
“I enjoyed the most when I was young when I was making memories with my grandfather on the farm. After hearing that I had an incurable disease, I came here after thinking about it. I wanted to stay here longer, even for a day.”
“…For that kind of thing, you look fine?”
“I’m sure it’s true. Every day, I’m hitting all kinds of drugs into my body.”
“Ah…”
Anyway, I’m busy living happily here. I have to be here when I go to places like the city and turn gems into money.”
Katrina puts on a slightly pitying expression at her holy day monologue. As her holy days seem to shake her a little, she shamelessly continues to tell her lies.
“I think I’ve finished organizing my mind. I think it’s pretty good to organize my last days here. But the only regret is… That I’ve never been in a relationship because I’ve been obsessed with working like a fool in my life…?”
“!!”
Katrina is startled to hear her holy day complaints. She may have sympathy for her Seong-il. She comes up to him and pats her on the shoulder.
“What… You’ve never been in a relationship…?! If you have time left, you should try even a little bit!”
“…Is that easy? I’m terminally ill? If you make love with me, what will happen to you when I die?”
“…”
The logic of Holy Day, which has nothing to say. As Katrina, who is speechless, shuts her mouth, Seong-il begins to loosen her pre-prepared rice cake.
“Ah~ I really want to try dating her once! If only I could, I would be able to pass on the wealth she earned while running her jewelery business to her and leave her in peace.”
“!!!!!”
Katrina cringes at the expression “All property.” Seong-il, who was checking her condition in real time with 『Emotion』, Feels that Katrina is agitated.
“So stupid. What do you do with a box of jewels? She’s living a life with no one to pass it on to. Her only family, her grandfather, is gone.”
“!!!!!”
“…Even if it’s fake like a contract relationship, I really want to die after dating.”
“…Contract romance?”
Hearing Seongil’s complaint, Katrina looks at him with a strange expression. For such a woman, her seongil carefully follows her words to her.
“…In that sense, don’t you want to try something like a contract relationship with me? The cost is five jewels a day!!”
