SSS-Grade Cafe in Front of The Dungeon - Chapter 4

Chapter 4

Translated by cabinfourtranslations.

I was perplexed by the awakening notification window that suddenly appeared in front of me, but I soon regained my composure and cheered.

Awakening, I have awakened!!!

Awakening is a general term for the phenomenon of manifesting the superpowers to become a hunter.

The exact conditions of awakening are unknown. Some say that theyre awakened while lying down at home, while others awaken when they have a life-threatening crisis or when they do something.

Anyway, the important thing is that if you awaken, you can earn a lot of money with that ability.

Of course, I didnt intend to enter the dungeon and fight monsters just because I had awakened. I was never going to enter a dungeon on my own feet.

All Hunters are awakened, but not all the people that have awakened are Hunters. There are endless ways to earn money just by the fact that you have awakened without having to fight monsters in the dungeon yourself.

In particular, if you are an item maker, you could earn a lot of money just by making items in the guild.

Its something that I finally experienced after regression. I cant believe such a good thing happened!

A cafe owner who hid her powers. A lone awakener who runs a cafe in front of the dungeon against the stark hunter world.

Its cool just to think about it. I am immersed in pink dreams, imagining a future where I work less and earn more as an awakened person, until Mieum said in a solemn voice.

Calm down and check your status. Meow.

The cat nagged me.

But whats wrong with such a trivial thing when I have awakened? I could listen to as many nags as I wanted. Im an awakened person.

Status.

I looked up at the status window with excitement. A translucent window appeared just by thinking inwardly while looking at the empty space in front of me.

But.

Name: Rieul

Class: Cafe Owner (F)

Health 100/100, Energy 100/100

Strength: 8, Intelligence: 11, Agility: 9, Luck: 12

What is thiiiiiiiis.

Actually there was nothing really surprising about it.

The average adult status for the general population was 10. In other words, strength and agility were below average, and intelligence and luck were slightly higher than average, but even so, they were at the level of ordinary people.

The problem lies on the other part. Even if its a lousy F-class body, whats with the Class: Cafe Owner?

I said that I wanted to be a cafe owner who hid her strength, but I didnt mean I just want to be a cafe owner. Great.

Isnt that too much?

I grabbed my head and screamed, while Mieum patted me with her round front paws next to me.

Calm down, Im hungry. Give me some food.

Are you telling me to calm down now? At the most, the awakened ability is nothing, and I am trapped in such a strange place! I also didnt come here on my own will. How do i get out Wait, Mieum, where are you going?

Without listening to me, Mieum turned her body around and started walking. When I rushed to follow after Mieum, a door appeared in the air where there was nothing until just now. Mieum swung her front foot at me.

If youre not coming, Ill leave you behind.

Coming, lets go together for a second!

As soon as we passed through the door, a flash of light wrapped around us and returned us to the store. It wasnt a dream, as there was still a door leaking blue light on the wall.

Meooow. I slept for a long time and I am hungry. Do you have anything to eat?

Mieum, sitting in the shape of a bread under the table as if it were her own house, cried out and asked.

I was also getting hungry after cleaning all day.

However, although this is a downtown in Seoul, it is in front of the great dungeon Abyss. There are no restaurants or convenience stores nearby, so it will take an hour to get something to eat. Even if I tried to order delivery, Dungeon Gate 3 was a delivery exclusion area.

What?

When I said that there was nothing to eat, Mieum pricked her ears and gave a surprised expression.

This eligible person is going to starve me to death!

Whats on earth is eligible person?

Food! I cant talk because Im hungry.

Mieum said she wouldnt say anything if I didnt give her food, and lay her stomach on the floor.

Its pretty cute, I cant stand it.

I dont know if she was trying to make a stern face, but the cat sitting in the shape of a bread and crying for food was cute no matter how I look for it.

Fortunately, I found a box of cereal in the warehouse on the first floor. I was a little worried because the expiration date was erased on the box, but I dont think it will cause me death. I decided to fill my stomach with this.

Too bad theres no milk. I found a suitable bowl and poured the cereal for Mieum.

Hmm, you want me to eat this crap?

If you dont like it, give it back.

I tried to clear the bowl of cereal. Then, Mi-eum hurriedly clung to my hand with her front feet.

No, this body will give it a special taste.

You say its a crap?

Hey, its crap, but Ill put up with this especially this time.

Contrary to what she said, Mieum buried her head in the bowl and ate all the cereal in an instant.

Mumumumummu do you have any more of this?

I wonder how deeply she put her head in the bowl, the cereal crumbs were clinging to Mieums face.

Come on.

I poured more cereal into the bowl.

While Mieum rustled and ate the cereal, I checked the status window once again.

Maybe I was flustered earlier and misread the numbers. For example, I read a number with a zero removed. Yeah, how can you get such a terrible stats when youve been awakened?

Whoa, haaa.

Lets calm down. I should read the numbers correctly this time.

I looked at the screen with such hope.

Name: Rieul

The latest_epi_sodes are on_the . website.

Class: Cafe Owner (F)

Health 100/100, Energy 100/100

Strength: 8, Intelligence: 11, Agility: 9, Luck: 12

Nothing has changed. I shook my head and muttered.

Ive awakened up to this point, but I didnt know it would be this lame..

You chose it yourself, why.

Mieum interrupted from the side.

After eating two bowls or cereal, the full cat groaned. It was after she licked up the cereal crumbs on her front paws.

Wait, I chose it?

Your awakening ability is an ability formed based on the systems test results.

Test? Ive never done anything like that huh, it the psychological test from before?

Mrrrrrrrrrraw!

Mieum cried sharply as her hair stood up. She swung her front paws and threw her fists at me.

Psychological test! It is a traditional test to confirm the awakening ability suitable for the eligible person!

Isnt that a psychological test? I thought, but I had to listen to Mieum for more explanations, so I comforted her.

Mieum, good girl.

Do you think Im an ordinary cat! Meow.

When I gently scratched the bottom of her chin with my hand, Mieum looked drowsy. As I fiddled more, a groaning sound leaked out. Then she explained in an arrogant voice.

There is a special energy called ether in the world.

Ive heard of Ether. Hunter supplies and weapons all contained ether, and the more ether is contained, the more expensive it is.

And the awakened person can store this ether in their body and use the skill. In other words, only those with ether affinity can gain awakening.

Nevertheless, there was an exception.

What is that?

The Awakener chosen by the system is called The Eligible. They are very rare, and they are given special abilities directly by the system.

Mieum said I was the right person.

It sounds like a really great explanation, but what are the stats I actually got? Mieum added to me who was disappointed.

You got the ability according to the choice of Kwon Rieul.

What?

So, the strange question that appeared on TV earlier was the process of choosing my awakening ability.

If I had known that was the case, I wouldnt have answered like that. I would have responded like an enterprising, passionate, experienced rookie just like I did when I wrote my cover letter.

No, do it again! Ill choose again, so lets do it again!

I grabbed the TV and shook it. However, the screen doesnt turn on again. As a last resort, I pounded the back of the TV, but only my hand hurt.

Mieum, who looked at me as if I was something pathetic, spoke again.

Ttsutsutsu, it has already been decided and cannot be changed. Please check your skills.

Skill?

Yeah, didnt the notification that you got the skill popped up earlier? The exclusive skill granted by the system is the real ability of the Awakened.

Thats right, I didnt see it closely earlier, but three skills appeared. The status looks like this, but the skills can be good.

There were many hunters who made a living using them because their status had good skills even at the level of ordinary people. Apparently, there were hunters abroad who were F-class, but famous for their A-class skills.

I opened the skill window with anticipation. Three skills appeared in a translucent window, there were Cafe in My Hand (C), The Floor is Shiny (E), and Smile (C). I clicked the detailed description one by one.

Cafe in My Hand (C)

Details: (Lv. 1) When making drinks in the store, the level of perfection is increased.

Reserved Recipes: Mixed Coffee

The Floor is Shiny (E)

Details: (Lv. 1) Cleaning toilets can be done quickly.

Smile (C)

Details: (Lv. 1) Smiling makes you feel better.

Is this really the end?

Why is it like this Unknowingly, I let out a sigh.

I dont have any of those common self-healing or supporting skills!

Im planning to open a cafe, so the Cafe in My Hand skill is fine. However, even if its a beverage making skill, the only recipe available is mixed coffee.

Additionally I received skill in cleaning the bathroom. What is the advantage of using skills to quickly clean the bathroom?

The last one is the Smile skill, so where can I use this? Maybe it has some hidden power?

Smile.

I tried the smile skill.

Smile.

The tip of the lips is pulled naturally and a soft arc line is drawn. Its the perfect business smile.

And that was the end.

Just smile and its over. I didnt feel any better.

I have all these useless skills.

Damn, the price of being too honest with the test was bitter.

Hello, my daily easy life thats what I wanted to do. Awakening doesnt seem to achieve it that easily.

Dont worry. Theres a way.

Mieum patted the frustrated me with her front paw and started to speak.

I actually still dont know the gender for the cat because even the endearment being used is gender-neutral. Ill assume it as a female for now.

Oh, and I changed qualified to eligible because The Eligible sounds better
