I checked the architectural miniature making set box next to it. On the outside it said, Easy to Make DIY Miniature Sets. Create a Pretty Flower Shop Great for Childrens Emotional Development.

How do you remodel a flower shop to become a Demon Castle?

Waeolg! This boy, hes quite talented!

Kkyuu! Kkyuuu!

The animals in my house jumped up and down in front of the Demon Castle, admiring it. I had just created a mental distance between me and my family.

A look of anticipation fell on me, expecting praise. I chose my words as best I could.

Thats well, Ash is great.

Hmph, this is nothing!

He added another words with an expectant look on his face, I can make you another one if you want.

Noooooo, I appreciate the thought.

Im sorry I couldnt live up to your expectations. Im pretty sure Id have wild dreams if I had one of those in my room.

.Cheesh. Sighing, Ash placed the Demon Castle next to the Christmas tree.

In order to cultivate healthy emotions, I have done not only dungeon detox but also labor detox I dont know what else I can detox from to get rid of the darkness in Ash.

I have no idea.

He has very unique tastes, but as long as hes healthy, Im good. Huh.

Anyway.

We decorated the cafe for Christmas using the Christmas decorations set. When we finished, this notification window appeared.

[You have completed the Christmas decoration. The effect of the Christmas decoration set is activated].

[Effect: The customer who came into the cafe feels like Christmas. Mood: +20]

After all, everyone was already immersed in the Christmas spirit, so we couldnt feel the effect. Still, it was nice to see the decorations.

By the time everything was ready, it was a little past noon. It was almost time for the guests to arrive.

Come to think of it, its been quite a while since I met Ki Yoohyun. I had heard that he was back from Gyeongju, but I couldnt meet him. The twins too.

Is it because of the Christmas decoration effect? Im starting to get excited too. I feel like Im going to hum the carols.

Rieul-ssi, hello.

Excuse me.

The first guests who arrived were a duo of government employees, team leader Kang Hyunwoo and Kim Jina. Its a shame that theyre still in uniform even though today is a public holiday. Kim Jina explained that they couldnt make it to the party because of work, but they took a moment to stop by.

Youve come all the way here, so have some hot chocolate.

With a heavy heart, I made them both a cup of Christmas hot chocolate. After taking a sip of the hot chocolate, Kim Jina said with a slightly softer expression, Drinking this somehow makes me feel like Im on holiday.

Hmm, me too, Ive never felt like this before. Team leader Kang Hyunwoo agreed with Kim Jina.

The agenda, dont you think its okay if we dont finish it today?

We finished the urgent stuff last week, so theres room in the schedule.

The officials stare at each others faces for a moment before coming to a dramatic agreement.

Then why dont we just call it a day and enjoy Christmas?

Thats a good idea.

Oh. This It feels like Christmas effect really worked.

Kwon Jiwoon and Choi Yichan came next. While Choi Yichan juggled the animals to the carol beat, I asked Kwon Jiwoon quietly.

Have you not been able to get in touch with Uncle yet?

Yeah. But dont worry too much. Hes probably off somewhere else getting some fresh air again.

In fact, when Kwon Jiwoon said that, his face was full of worry. It was understandable, as his father, who had just returned from missing, disappeared again. I handed him a cup of hot chocolate. He went to the corner and started putting ornaments on the fir tree. Yes, I heard that moving your hands is a good stress reliever.

Eonni, Merry Christmas!

You idiot! I was going to say it first!

You idiot! Whoever speaks first wins!

The next guests were the twins, Ki Yoohyun, and Grandma Kim Deokyi. The twins wore cute Santa costumes, and they also brought Ashs shares of costumes.

Ugh, are you asking me to wear the clothes of a Saint? This is an insult!

Wow, you guys are so cute in those outfits. You look great in them!

Heu-heumm. I could wear it for you at least once.

I took several photos of the twins and Ash in their Santa costumes. They are really cute.

Grandma Kim Deokyi had a heated discussion with the public officials about transaction fees for crafted items.

Umh rather than a Christmas party, it seems like everyone is having fun on their own.

Oh well, its good if theyre having fun.

Choi Cedric said he couldnt come because he spent Christmas with his sister every year. That means now there is only one guest left. When all the guests arrive, I can cut the cake then.

Thinking so, I talked to Ki Yoohyun, Yoohyun-ssi, would you like some hot chocolate?

Sure. But why are you looking at me like that?

What? What did I look like?

You look very curious.

I was curious about Ki Yoohyuns reaction when he was in a Christmas mood. So far, he has a calm appearance, not blending in with the Christmas atmosphere around him, but wouldnt it be different if he drank this hot chocolate?

Im so curious. What it looks like when this man, who always feels like hes taking a step back, gets excited?

I was about to hand him the hot chocolate while hiding my ulterior motives.

Boom!

Big deal!

A pale-faced Ju Noeul appeared.

Noeul-ssi, whats wrong?

She was the last person scheduled to attend todays party. Judging by the red Santa hat on her head, she was on her way to the party.

But what does she mean with big deal?

Big big deal heufh.

Here, have some cold water first.

Heuk, heuuh thanks, hu, haa.

Ju Noeul took a one-shot of a cup of ice water and caught her breath. She looked like shed run a long way.

Whats the big deal?

Look at this!

Ju Noeul handed me her tablet and displayed a certain screen. When I checked the screen at her urging, it was an ordinary blog post.

[New Cafe] HIP NEW HOT SPOT SUPER BUFF COFFEE in Guild Jungangdong Branch

Writer: Starry

Hello! This is Starry

Guild Jungang-dong, where many famous Hunter Guilds are located, is a hot spot these days, right?

Theres a new emotional cafe on Guild Street!

Let me introduce Super Buff Coffee, a new cafe thats expected to be a hit.

#GuildJungangdongNewCafe #NewCafe #GuildStreetCafe #SuperBuffCoffee #BuffCoffee

It was an introduction post of a cafe, with several photos and a detailed description. The sparkling four-storey building along the boulevard was recently opened. The inside of the cafe was also stylish and colourful with a trendy interior.

They have a great selection of drinks ah, and the desserts and bakery are good too. The cakes look delicious. It was a cafe with a good location, so it was sure to attract a lot of customers.

By the way, whats wrong with this cafe?

Its a very nice and colourful cafe, but I didnt feel a sense of crisis or competition.

Absolutely. How many cafes are there in downtown Seoul, no, all over the country? There is no reason to be surprised by other cafe with a different location, size, and target customer base.

However, Ju Noeul beat her chest in frustration.

Thats not it!

What?

This cafe is promoting that drinking their coffee will give you a buff effect!

what?

Only then did I notice the phrase at the bottom of the blog post.

The surprising thing is that the coffee of Super Buff Coffee gives a buff effect to Hunters!

From restoring your health to increasing your status to removing abnormal conditions

You can get various and powerful buffs

There are many more types of coffee than the menus in Cafe Rieul, which is famous for its buff coffee, so you can freely choose your favourite.

Its located in the downtown area, so its great for busy Hunters ^0^

Recommended for Hunters who had a hard time queuing up at Cafe Rieul!

Super Buff Coffee is planning to open the Hunter Market, Dungeon Management Office, Guild Crossing, and Yeouido Hunter TV branches soon

Starrys recommended menu is Einspanner!

You should try it.

.

At this rate, youre going to lose your customers.!

Oh my..

It was a shocking Christmas.

Today I went and tried it

The atmosphere is good. Theres a photo zone at the entrance.

I was surprised that the staff were really kind and friendly. They gave me a service and asked if the drink was delicious (y)

Its open until midnight and theres also a rooftop.

The buff effect is also good, so I think I will go there often in the future.

Starry: Its a venture company wait a minute. I have the brochure. Let me take a look at it lol

Market No. 13: Ah, about 10 rubies,, I guess its cheaper than CFR.

cdt***: Enough quality okok Super Buff is closer

LimeLove Team: Cafe Rieul is so much better. Why do you keep talking about a fake???? wheres your conscience?

Cheese Pizza: Its too far in the corner T_T Its annoying to go to the front of Dungeon, Im lazy

Lime Love Team: Huh; Are you drinking fake drink because youre lazy????? Cheese Pizza dog, very disappointed

Cheese Pizza: Why are you suddenly attacking me? lol what are you talking about lol Its not even patented by CFR yeye lmao

Lime Love Team: Whats wrong with calling fake stuff a fake??? The owner of CFR used to sell it cheaply with good intentions f*ck be loyal. Have some conscience, please.

HingHangHong: 22222

Sugar Drip: 333333

Cheese Pizza: Dang???? I just wrote a review of the coffee I bought and I had to hear that I have no conscience? lol

red***: Lime has been posting malicious comments on every Super Buff coffee post lately hahahaha just ignore it;

Lime Love Team: No, its not a malicious comment its just that you guys keep defending it

OO: What can we do lol should we go to dungeon only to drink coffee, CFR should open a branch too

LimeLove Team: fck ;; If youre going to do this, then why are you bashing Hunter Market???? Isnt this the same situation with why all the alley item shops are ruined???

Cheese Pizza: Is that the same as this?;;

Lime Love Team: Since youre only looking for an easy and comfortable road, thats why Cheese Pizza is still a newbie

Healer Wanted: Please refrain from personal attacks

F-Class: On their blog, Super Buff Coffee blog posted that theyre filming a CF with Oh Seoho

The age of glory is over.

To sum up what happened to me in the week leading up to the New Year, I could only say this: a large number of cafe chains called <Super Buff Coffee>, which sell buff coffee like our cafe, have opened.

At first, some people were skeptical of the effectiveness, but that didnt last long, as all the Hunters who tried their coffee said the effect was real. The stores are all located in downtown Seoul with easy access for Hunters. In addition, large stores with parking lots, stylish interiors, long business hours, and active SNS with their viral marketing, etc in an instant, Super Buff Coffee became a hit.

Therefore, it was natural that the number of customers in Cafe Rieul was decreasing.

January 2nd. The first business day after the Lunar New Year holiday, the year when I turned 24 years old. Outside the window is a dungeon view with only a cold wind blowing. Theres no shadow of a customer in sight.

This is how my celebrity life, where even the smallest photo on Instagram could be turned into an article, came to an end.
