After Sejun ate the Super Vital Peach, he checked the effects of Super Vitality and Longevity.
"Thanks to our Queng, Dad will live a long life."
He patted Queng's belly and praised him.
Hehehe. Queng!
[Hehehe. Queng will help Dad live longer!]
Queng was delighted by Sejun’s praise.
"Yeah. Yeah."
Sejun smiled warmly at Queng’s words.
Then,
Kkink!
[The butler is smiling again!]
Kkamang, with a mischievous grin, rushed towards Sejun’s face.
Queng only got his belly rubbed! Didn’t the great Kkamang get his belly rubbed?! I hate the butler!
It was jealousy.
However,
"Kkamang, you little rascal! You were just trying to step on me!"
Kkink?! Kkink?!
[Huh?! How did the foolish butler know?!]
"Punishment! Belly rub!" Bubububub.
Kkamang’s jealous, dark heart was subdued by the belly rub, and,
Hee-hee-hee.
I’ll forgive you this time.
Kkamang’s black fur turned white again.
And,
Queng will also get his belly rubbed.
Sejun looked at Queng, who was eagerly waiting to show his belly to Sejun.
"Alright. Queng’s belly gets a belly rub too. Bubububub."
Hehehe.
Sejun, having a happy healing time, gave Queng a belly rub and said,
"Okay, let’s stop playing and go harvest peaches."
Sejun got up and began harvesting peaches.
Hehehe. Queng!
[Hehehe. Queng will help Dad!]
Kkink. Kkink.
[Heheh. Butler! The great Kkamang will help too!]
Queng and Kkamang’s family, although not very helpful, joined in harvesting peaches.
About two hours later, the peach harvest was complete, and Sejun said,
"Let’s go eat lunch."
They headed to find Heukwolbok around lunchtime.
Black Tower, Floor 75.
It was a lazy afternoon, about 30 minutes after lunch.
Knock, knock, knock.
"Hm...?"
Mason, the chairman of the Merchant Association, who had just had a hearty lunch and was dozing off at his desk, rubbed his eyes and looked toward the door.
Who could it be? There’s no one scheduled to visit today...
Mason wondered since there were no afternoon appointments.
At that moment,
Clang.
The door was roughly opened, and,
"Hehehe. Mason, it’s been a while!"
"Kkik-kik-kik. Mason, it’s been a long time."
Piyot!
[Hello.]
"Hehehe. Mason, it’s been a while. Can I have this cookie?"
Kyaaah! Nyong nyong! Ppok pok! Chirp chirp!
Theo and his group, acting like they were in their own room, started running around Mason's office in chaos.
Mason, feeling uncomfortable with the mess being made in his office,
"Huff."
Tried to calm himself with a deep breath and composed his feelings.
Then,
"Vice Chairman Theo, welcome! What brings you here?"
Mason greeted Theo and asked what the reason for the visit was. He thought he already knew, but pretended not to know.
He didn’t want to be forced into buying a bunch of invitations.
Of course, he wanted to go to the Great Black Dragon’s birthday party.
But buying a large number of invitations for the Merchant Association, aside from his own family, was a bit uncomfortable.
The Merchant Association’s chairman election, held every 10 years, was approaching, and with Sejun Company currently sweeping up a lot of money in the Black Tower without spending it, deflation was worsening.
That’s why the wandering merchants’ financial situation had worsened, and buying invitations under the Merchant Association’s name seemed suspicious.
He was planning to buy them later from other people who had bought invitations at a markup...
"Hehehe. We’re here to sell invitations for the Great Hybrid Park Chairman's birthday party! Mason, I’ll start with 10,000 invitations just for you!"
When Theo said this with a bright smile, Mason realized he was wrong about his assumption.
Life never goes as planned.
"Well then, just 10,000..."
Mason, resigned, cautiously opened his mouth while glancing at Theo.
"Hehehe. By the way, the Wizard Association’s chairman, Iona, bought 200,000 invitations!"
Theo pressured Mason by mentioning how much Iona, another chairman, had bought.
But,
Who dares question a Wizard of Destruction?!
Theo’s words made Mason feel even more frustrated.
Unlike Iona, who dominated the Wizard Association, Mason had never fully controlled the Merchant Association.
"Huff. Alright, if Vice Chairman Theo supports me, I’ll buy 5 million invitations for the birthday party."
"Hehehe. Sounds good! What’s the favor?"
"When the Merchant Association’s chairman election comes, please tell everyone that you support me. Then, I’ll buy 5 million invitations."
Mason threw down the gamble of his lifetime with a cautious voice.
If Theo, the subordinate of the Great Black Dragon, supported him, the backlash from buying 5 million invitations would vanish instantly.
In the Black Tower, the authority of Theo, the subordinate of the Great Black Dragon, was truly unrivaled.
"Hehehe. Really?! If I, Vice Chairman Theo, support Mason, you’ll buy 5 million invitations?!"
"Of course. I’m the chairman of the Merchant Association, who survives on trust. Just support me, and I’ll buy 5 million invitations right away."
When Theo’s response was positive, Mason’s expression brightened.
Then,
"Hehehe. Alright! I’ll also support Iona, Yuren, Mimir, and Ninir, so buy 10 million more invitations!"
Theo added conditions.
"Of course. I welcome it!"
Mason’s smile grew wider. With this kind of support, he could even aim for a 10-term presidency.
And then,
‘Is this really working?!’
The words of the Great Hybrid Park Chairman are always right!
Theo, using Sejun’s teaching of “Ask, and double it,” was once again amazed by Sejun’s greatness.
"Ask, and double it" was something Sejun had taught as a joke, but Theo actually used it, and Sejun had no idea it would come to this.
But Sejun’s teachings didn’t stop there.
"Vice Chairman Theo, if it works, try going for a triple."
"Hehehe. Got it!"
There was also "Ask, and triple it."
And then,
"Hehehe. Mason, then we’ll also have the Great Hybrid Park Chairman, the Beast King, and Pink Fur support you, so buy 45 million more invitations!"
Theo, faithfully following Sejun’s teachings.
"What?!"
45 million more on top of the 15 million?!
Sweat started pouring down Mason’s forehead.

45 million more on top of the 15 million?!
Black Tower, Floor 55.
Clink.
Sejun, Queng, and Kkamang’s family arrived at the front gate of the Red Ribbon Kingdom’s White Castle.
And,
"Ah. I’m hungry. Let’s ask Wolbok for lunch."
Hehehe. Queng!
[Hehehe. Sounds good!]
Kkink. Kkink!
[Heheh. Wolbok! The great Kkamang is here!]
They hurried to go get lunch.
Chirp!
Sweat started pouring down Mason’s forehead.
[Sejun, it’s an emergency! Help!]
“Huh? Pposabu?”
Ppoji appeared, asking for help.
“What’s going on? Can I hear it on the way?”
Kkik...
[No...!]
Ppoji wanted to say that it was really an emergency, but...
Grrr.
Growl.
Kkik...
[Yes...!]
Since it seemed like it would delay meal time, Sejun reluctantly accepted because of the growling Queng and Kkamang.
Beep.
[Sejun, please come this way.]
Once Sejun entered the palace, the black rabbit on guard guided him to Heukwolbok.
“So, you’re saying Lala seems to have a boyfriend?”
Sejun talked with Ppoji as they ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) walked.
Kkik! Kkik! Kkik?!
[Yes! Other rabbits saw Lala this morning leaving her house with another male rabbit! Sejun, what should I do?! Should I kill Lala's boyfriend?!]
“If you do that, it’s over with Lala. Forever.”
Kkik...
Ppoji became downcast at Sejun’s words.
“Let’s figure out the situation first. In cases like this, it’s usually a younger brother or a cousin.”
Sejun, recalling the love tropes from dramas and anime, gave advice. There’s always a misunderstanding scene like this.
Kkik?!
[Really?!]
“Yeah. I’m 75% sure.”
Sejun answered confidently.
Meanwhile, Sejun and his group arrived at Heukwolbok’s office.
Beep!
[Honorable King Heukwolbok! The great Hybrid Black Dragon, Park Sejun, and his party have arrived!]
The guard announced to Heukwolbok.
Then,
Bang!
[Let them in!]
Heukwolbok’s voice echoed, and,
Goo-goo-goong.
The giant door opened.
Queng!
[Big brother!]
Kkink!
[Wolbok, big brother!]
Queng and Kkamang rushed towards Heukwolbok.
Did they really like him that much after just a few days?
Sejun, smiling at the sight of them, then noticed something and quickly covered Ppoji’s eyes and ears.
And then,
Kkik?!
[Sejun, what’s wrong?!]
“Wait a minute.”
Clang.
Sejun quickly placed Ppoji into the dimensional storage.
Inside Heukwolbok’s office, Lala, wearing a yellow ribbon in her ears, was chatting happily with another male white rabbit.
So, they were really a couple.
Sejun’s 75% certainty was wrong. If Ppoji had seen this, there might have been a knife fight.
Sejun stopped the fight from happening for now.
“Wolbok, but who are these people...?”
Sejun carefully asked Heukwolbok. As a supposed love expert, Sejun could tell that they were definitely a couple, but he asked just in case.
Bang!
[Ah. Lala knows, and this is Lala’s father!]
Beep!
[We greet the great Hybrid Black Dragon, Park Sejun!]
Lala’s father greeted Sejun with respect.
‘Her father?!’
I can’t believe I was wrong...
Sejun couldn’t believe that he had been wrong.
“Oh. So, this is Lala’s father... Nice to meet you. You look so young, I couldn’t even tell if you were her boyfriend.”
To justify himself, Sejun claimed that Lala’s father must have been young-looking.
Beep...! Beep!
[Th...thank you! Great Hybrid Black Dragon!]
Lala’s father, embarrassed by Sejun’s compliment, didn’t know how to respond.
Bang? Bang.
[Uncle, why is he suddenly acting like this? It’s uncomfortable.]
Heukwolbok shook his head. Based on his reaction, it was clear that Lala’s father wasn’t as young as Sejun made him out to be.
After exchanging pleasantries with Lala’s father, Sejun carefully opened the dimensional storage.
And,
“Pposabu, it’s not her boyfriend. It’s Lala’s father. You need to impress him to earn some points...”
Sejun quietly whispered to Ppoji.
Sejun saw this as a huge opportunity.
If he could make a good first impression on Lala’s father, it would be a strong ally for his future marriage to Lala.
But,
“Pposabu?”
Ppoji wasn’t listening to Sejun.
Kkik!
[You bastard! We can’t give Lala to you!]
Seeing Lala with the male rabbit, Ppoji’s eyes turned red with rage.
Thud, thud.
Thirty swords were pointed at the future father-in-law.
“Queng, stop him!”
Queng!
Fortunately, Queng used telekinesis to stop the swords, but the murderous intent couldn’t be stopped.
Beep! Beep!
[Who dares to target our daughter?! It was you, wasn’t it?! I won’t let you have our daughter either!]
Instead of gaining a strong ally, Ppoji made an enemy. Or, maybe he had always been an enemy.
Kkik! Kkik!
[Father-in-law, I’m sorry! Please give me your daughter!]
Ppoji, belatedly kneeling and apologizing, but,
Beep?! Beep!
[Who the hell do you think you are?! You tried to kill me!]
Kkik!
[Father-in-law~!]
The father-in-law’s anger was far from subdued.
And then,
Snicker.
Beep...
[Ppoji, you fool...]
Seeing Ppoji on his knees in front of Lala’s father, Lala, who had brought her father to approve of her marriage to Ppoji, smiled softly.
Though her father was a formidable foe with a sword, in Lala’s eyes, he was now a brave man fighting for her.
Moreover, the fact that he had knelt down for her only added extra points.
Before long, Lala, too, had fallen for Ppoji, her eyes filled with the haze of love.
