SSS-Grade Cafe in Front of The Dungeon Chapter 19

He was equipped with equipment that looked expensive, but in a word he looked like a peacock.

After him, there were four hunters in relatively modest outfits. It was a rather unusual party composition.

If youre going to keep dragging your feet, well go first.

Even though we didnt answer, the peacock squeezed in. The public official pushed him away, denied his interruption, but he was stubborn.

Eh, lets just avoid him.

The public official seemed in trouble, so I just told him to send the peacock first. The official bowed to me and checked the papers with a tired look.

Yes, I will check the entry of the Supreme Party.

A familiar word came into my ears.

An old-fashioned name that might have been used about 10 years ago. I think Ive heard such stupid words lately. Where was it.

Huahahaha! I dont need explanations like that. Just trust this supreme leader, well clear the tutorial in no time. Newbies, lets go quickly.

Thats right, the person nicknamed Ji-jon!

He is the owner of that bus recruitment post on the Hunter Channel. A vicious hunter who demanded 100 rubies from an F-class.

Wow, bad luck.

I said while watching Jijon and his party disappearing beyond the dungeon gate.

To be campaigning like that when youre a C-class, your head would hit the ceiling when youre an S-class hunter.

However, Ki Yoohyun shook his head with an ambiguous expression.

Um I dont think so. Its a matter of personal character. S-class is not necessarily arrogant.

Its weird. There are less than 10 S-class hunters in Korea, so why is this man desperately making excuses?

Anyway, its our turn again.

The dungeon entry process was very simple. Ki Yoohyun and I stood on the disc, and the official operated the gate.

A blue light covered me, and when I opened my eyes, I was in a field.

Tiling!

[Welcome to the great dungeon Abyss

A tutorial is currently in progress.

I wish all the best for beginners.]

[Cthugha rejoices over your visit.]

Uh, what was that just now?

But before I could properly check it, the notification disappeared.

I took my eyes off the system notification and looked around slowly.

The first thing that caught my eye was the sky dyed red in the sunset. A gentle breeze swayed through the sparsely growing reeds and shrubs. The remnants of a half-collapsed building could be seen in the distance, but it had an unusual style as if it were somewhere in a foreign country.

Rather than inside the dungeon, it seems that we are in a certain historical site.

This is inside the Abyss?

The sky, the wind, and the sunlight felt real. Only the slightly damp air felt a little odd.

However, unlike me, Ki Yoohyun didnt look surprised at all. It even seemed like he was familiar to the place as he leisurely looked around and measured the direction.

The Abyss is not a real tower, but a place where the space overlaps. Its not just a single building, but rather it can be said that each of these different spaces are connected. On the other floors, there area the sea and snowy fields.

Wow have you been there?

No. That I heard about it. From someone who has been there.

Ki Yoohyun was embarrassed and corrected it. He knew it in detail, so I thought hed been there before.

I dont see anyone else.

Each party would have fallen to a different place. The starting point and the goal point are different for each person, so you wont have to run into each other. Come on, lets go.

Ki Yoohyun began to walk in one direction. I asked, hurriedly following him.

Uh, do you know the way?

Its Its just a feeling.

Indeed, there is no map or anything, so we have no choice but to go somewhere.

By the way, it was an unbelievable scenery in the dungeon. The reeds and trees all look real. There was no time to feel bored as I looked around with a curious mind.

After walking in the field for about ten minutes, a green lump that looked like a jelly appeared in front of me. At the same time, the system alarm rang.

[Green Slime (F) for Beginners has appeared.]

Slime is different from the cave black bear that attacked the store recently. It had no sharp teeth or claws, and its translucent and smooth body trembled softly.

In short, it looks cute.

Kyuuu.

Even the sound of slime is cute. It was the moment when I subconsciously took a step closer to take a closer look,

The slimes round body spread like a membrane in an instant and tried to attack me.

Uwah!

I stepped back in surprise, and there was a flash of light. When I opened my eyes, the slime had melted away.

Huh?

What was it just now? He didnt cast spells for magic skills, and he didnt even show hand gestures for offensive skills.

[Party Member: Ki Yoohyun has defeated the Green Slime for Beginners (F).]

[You have gained 10 EXP.]

Only the notification window that appeared in front of me with a ring sound, informed me that Ki Yoohyun had just killed it.

Rieul-ssi, are you okay?

Yeah, Im okay Did Yoohyun-ssi kill it?

I asked Ki Yoohyun with a suspicious look.

I had thought about it a while ago, but after entering the dungeon, my suspicions grew stronger.

This person is he strong?

With a relaxed attitude, he was melting the slime in an instant.

It was a suspicious situation, but Ki Yoohyun answered with a shy expression, saying that he was also surprised.

Hahaha because it is for beginners, the difficulty must have been set to easy.

Does he not know that hes strong yet? A breathless power that Ive only heard of? Or is this actually a haha bus?

Did I enter the world of I am too strong as a rookie hunter without realizing it? Was he actually a possessed person?

Either way.

I have to stay close to him.

If Ki Yoohyun becomes famous in the future, Ill post something like, I cleared the the tutorial dungeon with Ki Yoohyun. I will put a sign on the store saying Its the coffee that Ki Yoohyun drank and sell coffee for hundreds of thousands of won.

Hehehe.

Rieul-ssi.

Ki Yoohyun spoke to me, who fell into a snobbish thought for a moment.

Ah, yes, yes?!

Be careful. Slime is not such a dangerous monster, but its better not to touch it.

Do they have any poison?

Your skin swells and itches when you touch it.

Ugh.

Thats a big deal. I have to be careful.

Colorful slime contiued to appear along the way. Ki Yoohyun easily killed various slimes such as green, blue, and yellow slimes. The melted slime was absorbed into the ground and disappeared.

Because of that, the system notifications were popping up one after another in front of my eyes.

[You have gained 10 EXP.]

[You have gained 10 EXP.]

[You have gained 10 EXP.]

Im in the state of doing nothing, but still gaining the experience points.

This is a bit isnt this such a good benefit?

At this rate, I think I can level up without lifting a hand. Is this enough to just enter the dungeon?

As I walked while my partner was melting the slime, I came across a fork covered with bushes. Then, I heard the sound of running water nearby.

Heugh, I was distracted by the free experience and almost forgot my original purpose.

Yoohyun-ssi, please wait.

The moment I was going to reveal my original purpose for entering the dungeon.

Wuahahaha! The Supreme swordsmanship!

The peacock that appeared from the other side no, Jijon swung the sword in his hand.

Behind him, there were still four beginners with tired faces.

Jijon swept away the slimes around him and shouted in a loud voice.

If you get caught in this supreme swordsmanship, youll get one shot! WUAHAHA.

Oh my gosh, the skill name is also bad.

And why are you screaming when you use your skill?

I glanced at Ki Yoohyun.

You said we wont run into the others.

Were out of luck.

This is the hunting ground of the supreme leader! The little ones are just getting in the way, so get them out quickly.

I had a foreboding that it would be annoying to run into that guy among many hunters. I was about to ignore it and slowly move forward, but something happened.

Kuuuung, Kuuuung.

My body trembled at the suddent vibrations of the ground. What, did an earthquake happen?

Ki Yoohyun also looked surprised at this unexpected situation.

Soon, a system notification window appeared in front of me.

[Warning!

Tutorial dungeon is a special dungeon designed to help beginners grow.

Please use the dungeon with a difficulty level that suits you.]

[The difficulty of the tutorial dungeon changes due to the appearance of a strong player.

Tutorial DungeonSpecial Hard mode starts.

Defeat stronger monsters and get more experience.]

What the hell does this mean?

As I read the notification window in disbelief, I heard laughter next to me.

Omy my wuahahaha!

It was Jijon.

Im sorry about this. I was just trying to help you beginners but it looks like Im too strong to come in here. The difficulty of the dungeon went up because of me, Im sorry.

I dont think so.

I dont know exactly what the situation is, but I have a strong feeling that it wasnt him.

At that moment, the sun in the western sky disappeared and darkness descended as if time was fast-forwarding.

And as the red moon in the middle of the sky emitted an ominous light, it was obvious that an unusual change had occurred.

Thump, Thump, Thump-.

The moment when the regular pounding of the ground stopped.

[Dungeon difficulty increased. A Giant Slime for Experts (???) has appeared.]

The giant slime came toward us, bouncing its whole body.

The body, which appeared from the bushes, seemed to be over 5 meters tall. The body glowed fluorescent green in the dark. I think itll be real bad my your skin if I touch it.

Jijon stepped forward to bite back at the bizarre sight.

Huahaha! Dont worry. Even if its a giant, its still a slime. This supreme leader will be able to get rid of it.

Oh, he was pretty cool now.

Hiyaaah . Supreme Swordsmanship!

Jijon swung the sword in his hand.

However, the giant slime bounced the sword lightly. The wind blew the sword out of his hand.

Still, Jijon did not give in.

Eugh Its pretty solid. But I still have this skill. Ultimate The Supreme Iron Fang!

The moment he shouted Hiyaaah a tremendous amount of power was condensed into the his fist. Jijon jumped sharply and swung his fist towards the giant slime.

Tung-.

However, Jijons fist could not penetrate the smooth body of the giant slime.

Jijons body, which bounced off with a bang, rolled on the floor.

.Ugh.

Jijon, who got up with a moan, glared at the giant slime with a determined expression.

Then, he ran away.

Huh?

It was so fast. I soon couldnt see his back.

Leader wait, lets go together!

When Jijon, the leader of the party, ran away, a group of bewildered beginners followed him.

In an instant, only Ki Yoohyun, the giant slime, and I were left here.

The giant slime bounced off its body with a flash of light.

. it seems to say that its our turn next.

Translators Corner:

I think I forgot to mention it before, Jijon () means supreme / the best. It is out-dated expression. It comes from Chinese character () and was used as an honorific title for a king in the past. Well, you probably still see it being used in martial arts novel. Thats why the MC thought his skill name is ridiculous.

and guys, please stop jinxing the MC in the comments T__T
