SSS-Grade Cafe in Front of The Dungeon-Chapter 74
Rona is still in a deep sleep. He didn’t want to tell her a dark story, lest he ever get in the way of his lovely sister’s dreams.
The guild’s Hunters are uncomfortable with Choi Cedric. In any case, he had a lot of conversations with the plant otaku, no, the botanist Lee Chorok. However, he couldn’t possibly tell her the secrets of the guild.
And that woman … Kwon Rieul.
Choi Cedric recalled when he was caught up in the dungeon on a farm.
He remembered the taste of the coffee she made in the dungeon, he even remembered her soft voice. Her soft eyes were quite cute, and unlike her first impression of being emotional and vulnerable, she felt cool because she was bold when she appeared in front of the monster.
Somehow, he even told her stories that he didn’t normally tell others. He promised to visit the cafe she runs, but he hasn’t kept it yet.
He vaguely wanted to talk to her.
He had her contact information in advance. However, Choi Cedric tried to dial her number on his phone several times, but in the end, he couldn’t make the call.
“Haa.”
He couldn’t do it. He didn’t know what to say.
He was a mess, with vague feelings of anxiety, doubt, and isolation all intertwined. He wanted to talk, but he didn’t know what he should say to her.
In front of that person, he was only going to show her the image of him as confident and cool as possible, the appearance that’s worthy of the No. 2 ranker.
Wouldn’t it be surprising to call her out of the blue and talk about depressing things? She would never have noticed that his original personality was timid and gloomy.
Furthermore, she said that she was a relative of Kwon Jiwoon of the White Silver Guild.
C&L is constantly pressuring the White Silver Guild.
‘So how can I tell her that I might do something that harms her brother…….’
He can’t possibly tell her that….
Did Romeo and Juliet feel like this?
Around the same time that Choi Cedric was troubled by thinking of a somewhat absurd metaphor, in Cafe Rieul, at No. 16, Dungeon Gate 3 in Jung-gu, Seoul.
Kwon Rieul was faced with one difficulty.
***
Eh?
I rubbed my eyes and looked at the system window again. However, the content did not change.
[Fresh Milk: Out of Stock
※ We are currently preparing for stock. We’ll send you a notification when it’s in stock.]
Eh?
In the meantime, Cafe Rieul has been running smoothly. With the skill level up, recovery became easier, and customers consistently visited the cafe. I enjoyed the self-employed super easy mode, where there were somewhat unusual customers, but most were just ordinary customers.
I was able to enjoy the dream life of a real cafe tycoon; roasting coffee beans, making sugar, and selling drinks to customers every day.
Above all, the existence of Ash, the all-around part-timer, makes all of this possible.
Thanks to this, sales of the store rose quickly, the sales of the store went up quickly, and through achievements, new recipes were obtained and my level was also raised.
The shop runs like a sail into the wind.
There were times when I felt anxious because it went so smoothly.
‘It’s weird. It’s about time they started to get in my way … why is the system quiet?’
It’s just a baseless feeling, but I thought that the system wouldn’t let this comfortable, trial-free state go unnoticed.
However, I didn’t expect this problem to happen.
Suddenly, milk and whipped cream were sold out in the Dimensional Shop.
‘Did I buy too much because the business is doing well these days?’
I paid ruby and tried to refresh the product list, but it was the same.
Out of stock, out of stock, out of stock……
They only took my rubies and don’t give me the milk I really need.
“Waeooogh, waeooong (Aren’t you thinking too badly of the great system).”
Mieum spoke, secretly took the side of the system. I didn’t know how this circular pattern of disturbance events keep occuring.
This reminded me of a cafe management game in the past.
With indomitable labor and selling personal information, I barely managed to get 1st place in the rankings, but only annoying sabotage quests were launched. I should’ve listen when people called it Man-game.
And there was a guild with a strange name, what was it … ‘Only You Fold the Bitter Server Termination‘, people from that guild kept bothering me.
“What’s wrong?”
“Oh, wait, we ran out of milk.”
Anyway, I can’t help it because I can’t find something I don’t have. I thought I, unfortunately, should use ordinary commercial milk, but…….
“……Ash, how do you like it?”
“…….”
Ash swallowed his words with a mixed expression. The satisfaction bar above his head gradually filled up … but it stopped in the middle. That’s a more definite answer than the words he didn’t say.
I also put down the cafe latte I was drinking.
To clear up any misunderstandings, even the ordinary milk coffee is not at all tasteless. The harmony created by the bittersweet espresso and the fragrant milk definitely matches the taste of caffe latte I know.
The problem is that my taste buds have become accustomed to coffee made with milk from the Dimensional Shop. Furthermore, the Grade that came out when using ordinary milk was only 1 star, and the recovery efficiency was poor.
This can’t be done. Anyone who has tried the coffee I made before will surely feel the difference in taste I didn’t want to hear rumors that the taste changed after gaining popularity.
Eventually, I decided to remove drinks that use milk from the menu until milk was available again.
The problem is that milk and whipped cream are used the most after coffee beans in the cafe menus.
Without milk and whipped cream, the rest of the menu were Americano, iced Americano, and lemonade.
Naturally, complaints arose.
“Give me a cafe latte, please. Huh, you can’t do it now?”
“Please … I can’t cheer up if I don’t drink cappuccino from this cafe!”
“I want to drink vanilla latte….”
“I’ll pay twice as much, so please sell it to me!”
“I’ll pay three times, no, five times…….”
I sent back the disappointed customers and looked at the Dimensional Shop sadly, but it was still out of stock.
Where can I get the milk?
According to the explanation of the item window, the milk that has been used so far is the milk of the A-class Golden Triangular Rhinoceros. Where is the A-class Golden Triangular Rhinoceros?
Tiling!
[‘Golden Triangular Rhinoceros‘ has been added to the Ether-Wiki.]
The system notification rang as if it had been waiting, but there was nothing particularly helpful in the Ether-Wiki. The content was just a simple explanation of the ecology of the Golden Triangular Rhinoceros.
[Do you want to play the clip ‘Ecology of A-Class Golden Triangular Rhinoceros’?
Yes / No ]
I didn’t know that this wiki also has a video function…..
[You can’t see it anywhere else! Let’s meet the ecology of the Golden Triangular Rhinoceros, who lives only in Grade A clean land. A video to heal the hearts of modern people who are tired of city life, released for free for 3 days.]
There was a long ad phrase.
After thinking for a while, I chose ‘No‘ and got up. It is important to find a way to get milk, but I decided to deal with one of the delayed things first.
Sales have accumulated considerably in the meantime. Since I’ve earned money, now I have to spend it.
“Ash, come here for a second.”
“….Why?”
“I have a place to go.”
***’
An hour later.
“…….”
His eyes sting. Ignoring the silent protest, I lightly pushed Ash’s back.
“Then, I’ll wait here.”
In the end, Ash, who gave up his resistance, sighed and trudged.
We’re in clothing store in Yongsan’s shopping mall. Of course, I came here to buy Ash’s clothes.
When I first found him collapsed in front of the store, Ash was wearing very old clothes. No, rather than clothes … it’s a double? The shape was difficult to recognize, and it was not even an ordinary modern doubles.
There were all sorts of miscellaneous things in the warehouse, but there were no clothes that a boy the size of Ash could wear.
In a hurry, I made him wear my clothes under the name of a part-time job uniform, but it was too big. The sleeves of the shirt and the pants are folded up, but no matter how you look at it, it’s clear that he borrowed someone else’s clothes.
I thought I should buy some clothes, but I couldn’t find the time to spare. This situation turned out well.
“We ran out of milk, so we’ll close the cafe early today.”
After closing the cafe early, I came here to buy Ash’s clothes. Ah, of course, I’m going to pay for his clothes.
For reference, Ash is properly paid for his part-time work. However, isn’t Ash a runaway teenager with reasons that he can’t say? It would be nice if he can save his part-time job salary and spend it on other things.
It would be best for me if Ash can keep working part-time in the cafe, but … he could go to school or something like that later.
In addition, the store’s sales have also risen a lot. If it continues like this, I can buy a house, no, a building soon.
…… Hmmm, let’s dream about the future of a building owner later.
What should you do when you make money?
You have to use it right away!
The sales are piling up steadily, but I’ve been busy and haven’t had time to spend them.
As a member of the modern consumer society, I cannot let this happen.
Yeah, right now is the moment we need Labour Detox!
Since Ash had only been at the store, I used this opportunity and went out of the Dungeon Gate to shop and eat out after a long time. I brought Ash to Yongsan, which is relatively close and has a lot of clothing stores.….
“Ah! It looks good over there. Let’s go there.”
“……Ugh.”
As soon as he saw the crowds in the shopping mall, he had a tired expression on his face.
“How about this? Try this on.”
“Never mind. I don’t have to wear it.”
“This is pretty, too.”
“It’s not….”
This uncooperative attitude. This must be … it’s like a little kid who doesn’t want to go shopping with his family.
“Ash, is it a lie that you are 17 years old?”
“Huh, I got caught. I’m actually over two thousand years old…….”
He’s still keeping up that setting….
“Whether you’re two thousand or fourteen, I won’t let you go until you choose at least three sets, so give up.”
“….Cih.”
“Is there anything you like? Ash, you can buy whatever you like, okay?”
“Hoo, that’s nice.”
‘Humans are trash’, Ash, who had been following me reluctantly with a grim expression, pointed to a clothing store.
“Really? Then shall we go there … Huh?”
I doubted my eyes.
