SSS-Grade Cafe in Front of The Dungeon - Chapter 23
Library

Chapter 23

I wondered where it went back then, but it must have come into the inventory along with the sugarcane.

What should I do, do I have to take it back to the dungeon?

Meow! Did you catch a rare red slime?

Surprised at the sight of slime, Mieum raised her fur.

I didnt catch it but is it rare?

Red slime is the only type of slime that is not poisonous to the body. Thats why they dont get along with other slimes, and they are also easily attacked by high-ranking monsters, so the number has decreased a lot.

Umh.

Hearing that, it was a bit cruel to take it back to the dungeon.

Should I raise it? There were quite a few cases where slime was kept as a pet. It was mainly a slime tamed by Hunters in the tamer class.

Although this red slime is not tamed, it is calm.

A system window appeared in front of me while I was thinking.

[Red Slime can be appointed as an agent. Would you like to appoint it?

Yes / No ]

Youre saying I can raise this slime, right?

Would you like to stay here?

Kkyuuu.

The slime bounced up and down. Yes, I have a cat who eats cereal and loves drama, and I also have a slime now.

[Please name the agent.

Enter a name: ]

A name.

Umh Rieul, Mieum, since its the second addition the family its Bieup.

How about Bieup?

The slime suddenly started bouncing its body from side to side violently. Perhaps that alone was not enough, so it drew an X on the floor while bouncing all over the place. It was a clear sign of rejection.

.Do you hate it that much?

Im a little hurt. Whats wrong with Bieup? It means my dongsaeng, this older sister is sad. I thought it was perfect.

However, the slime continued to grumble and object. I had no choice but to give it another name.

Um, then since its similar to jelly, do you like Jelly?

Kkyuuu!

It refused this name too. Its a very tricky slime.

Because you resemble a rubber ball, Tangtang?

.

I felt a cold gaze. A cool silence fell around so that I could know the answer without looking at slimes gestures.

I dont think it likes the name.

Dont be like this. Mieum, not you too.

In addition, as soon as I said the other names I thought of such as Red, Pearl, and Chubby, the slime instantly rejected it.

Dont tell me am I the problem?

Am I not talented in naming animals?

The latest_epi_sodes are on_the . website.

In the end, half-desperate, I came up with a name that came to mind.

Because youre a slime, how about Lime?

Kkyuu.

Finally, the slime gave a positive answer. Judging by the light gestures bouncing back and forth, it seems to like the name quite a bit.

Suddenly, a new member of the family named Lime appeared.

Kkyuu, kkyuuu.

Lime spun around me. Its translucent and bouncy body looked soft and pleasant to the touch. I think I can touch the red slime since its not poisonous. I want to touch it once.

Can I touch you?

Kkyuu.

When I gently pressed my index finger on its body,e I felt a soft yet elastic touch. It has a unique texture that, although slightly viscous, did not stick to my hands.

Rub, rub, rub.

Rub, rub, rub.

Haha, I almost lost my mind for a moment. Its an incredibly addictive touch. At this rate, I thought I could stay like this for hours.

But what should I feed it?

I dont know if it had a mouth because it was originally in the form of a round jelly. It cried kkyuu, but it was unclear whether the sound was even coming out of its mouth.

Lime, what do you eat?

Kkyuuuu.

Lime bounced its body and pointed to the coffee fruit on the open branch of Yggdrasil.

Uh are you eating this?

Kkyuu.

I picked a coffee fruit and gave it to Lime. Lime took the coffee fruit with its mushy body and swallowed it, then immediately spat out the seed.

Seed in other word, green coffee beans.

Wait, then, is it possible for Lime to eat only the flesh of the fruit and leave the seeds?

Lime, can you eat all of that too?

Kkyuu.

Lime, who somewhat answered in a proud tone, approached the place where the coffee fruit was abandoned. It spread its body as wide as a membrane, covering the coffee berries on the vinyl sheet like a wave.

Tuk, Tuk.

The seeds began to fall on the vinyl sheet. It took less than a few minutes for all the flesh of the coffee fruits to disappear and only the seeds remained. It was much more than a person and a cat has been managed to finish just now.

Lime returned with a slower movement than before because it was full. Behind the slime, I saw a mountain of seeds.

So the situation right now is.

Me + Mieum < Lime ?

I felt a little bit of shame, but.

Anyway, the work was done in one shot. God, I have a really nice new family member.

[Green Beans ()

Time Remaining: 3 days]

***

It took three days for the green beans to completely dry.

What I did for those three days.

Haaaaa..

I just played.

For some reason, the system didnt bother me, and there was nothing else I could do but wait right now.

What do you do when you have free time like this? Exercise? Self-improvement? No, of course Im just fooling around as much as I want.

Its been three days since Ive been immersed in all the mundane things in the world.

Today, I woke up late again, lay on the bed, and accessed the Hunter Channel on my cell phone.

[Issue] Lets make a public discussion about Hunter Jijon. (413)

[News] Tutorial DungeonSpecial Hard Attack Hunter Unknown (133)

[Notice] Notification of sanctions against ill-mannered user Jijon

[Chatting] Is <Hunter Market> normally this unkind? (57)

The world is also peaceful today.

I couldnt see anything special, so I skimmed through the text and got up because I was hungry.

Looking at the clock, it was 1:00 p.m. It was time for the green beans to be dry.

When I went down to the first floor after washing up, Mieum and Lime were talking about something. The two of them have become close, now they used to hang out together and play with each other well.

As I got closer, I heard Mieums clear voice.

Waeeeongh, do you understand!

Kkyuuu.

The bowl is here, the toilet is over there, and the drinks are in the refrigerator. What is missing comes out when you urge the human to clean up.

Kkyu.

I thought she wanted to explained the location of the item because she came in first.

No, the TV is on the second floor. By the way, you have to watch KBS at 7:30.

Kkyuuu..

No. Watch the rerun. Kyaoong!

They started arguing over the TV channel.

Both of you look happy.

Leaving the two who kept arguing, I went into the space and checked the coffee beans.

[Green Beans ()

Status: Dry

The flesh-removed seed of the coffee fruit.

It dries well and is suitable for making coffee after roasting.]

After three days, the well-dried green beans had a shape that looked exactly like the coffee beans I knew. The long journey had finally come to an end.

I immediately brought my green beans back and prepared to roast them.

Fortunately, there was a roaster in the store. However, it was not a commercial product used in a professional roastery cafe, but a household product that was roasted on a gas fire.

Originally, I was planning to buy roasted coffee beans and use them.

I was planning to do it, but how did this happen..

If it wasnt for the systems quest rewards and the special effects of coffee, I would have just prepared to open an ordinary cafe.

I heated the roaster on a gas fire, and then the dried green beans in the wire mesh. This roaster was bought for home roasting as a hobby a long time ago, but it was left unused.

Thank you, the past me.

Without this, I would have had to wait another few days to order and receive the roaster.

Of course, at that time, I would never have imagined that I would be roasting coffee made from the fruits of Yggdrasil.

As the temperature rose and the wire mesh went round and round, the beans began to roast. Now it going to smell fragrant and crack.

What?

Why is there no change?

The gas fire is definitely on and the roaster is at normal temperature. However, the coffee inside was not roasted at all.

And this pattern.

I had an ominous hunch. Somehow I have a hunch that something very troublesome will happen.

Ether-Wiki.

After skipping all the texts that appear in front of me, I opened the roasting information page.

Theres nothing particularly strange about it.

I quickly scanned the roasting information with my eyes, and at the end, my eyes caught the small letters.

The letters written in 3pt were invisible unless you open your eyes wide.

[*Note: Roasting must be done with etheric fire. Please be careful as it does not roast on a regular gas fire.]

Etheric fire? Its a very ominous word.

My eyes met Mieum, who was sitting on her stomach in the corner and watching the roaster turn.

Meoong.

As if she had something to say, she cried a little and looked into my eyes.

Isnt this pattern too much?

No wonder its been quiet for the past few days without a bothersome notification, was it for this moment?

The feeling of betrayal was immense. It seems that this system is trying to send me to a dangerous place with such a repeated pattern.

I wont. I wont do anything about it. How am I supposed to bring the fire?

It was then,

Suddenly, the red stone in the ring I was wearing began to glow. Its the same ring I got from the old lady in Hunter Market.

Uh, why is this.

Hwuur.

Another dark red flame from the gas fire moved to the lower part of the roaster. The roaster on fire spun round and round.

Oh, its working.

Soon, the roaster began to smell fragrant.

Translators Corner:

Dongsaeng is younger brother/sister. I assumed that you must have already known this if you read KR webnovel its a gender-neutral term, so no, I wont guess the slimes gender. Does slime even supposed to have a gender?

I already explained about the name before. After Rieul and Mieum, theres Bieup. (), (), and then ().

Rubber / bouncy ball is (taengtaengbol), so its Tangtang.

Lets just hope that Our MCs future husband has better naming-sense :D
