SSS-Grade Cafe in Front of The Dungeon

“Calm down. I’ll try to contact her.”

Yeah, this isn’t the time to be like this. He must have been worried about Kwon Rieul a lot, and he should let her know about the good news right away.

Kwon Jiwoon immediately picked up his phone and called Kwon Rieul. However, there was only a dial tone and the phone call not get connected. Her KakaoTalk is also inactive.

“She’s not answering the phone right now. I’ll try to contact her again in a little while.”

“No, we don’t have time. We have to meet her soon!”

“Father, calm down.”

However, Kwon Seokmin looked impatient. In the end, Kwon Jiwoon could not win over his father and got up.

“Rieul recently opened a cafe. The location is quite unique, but … it’s very delicious. If we go there, we will meet her.”

“Ah, I’ll come with you.”

He deliberately postponed the interviews, but there were several reporters in front of the guild to see where the rumor came from.

It is not easy to solve the family affair. The three of them went out the back door to avoid the reporters and headed to the cafe run by Kwon Rieul.

…and they were surprised.

“Son, I can’t see the cafe with my eyes. What’s going on?”

No. 16 Dungeon Gate 3 Street, Jung-gu, Seoul.

The whole cafe building disappeared.

And just at that moment.

Another person was surprised to see Cafe Rieul completely disappeared.

“What is this…….”

Ju Noeul lamented.

What kind of Wizard of Oz is this…….

“Pepe, swimming, possible!”

A serene summer beach under the cliffs.

When Pepe, the fire spirit, made a big gesture, the fire blazed and the waves split sideways.

……can I call this swimming?

The smell of salt in the air became stronger as the seawater vaporized in Pepe’s heat. Soon the sea floor was completely exposed and the yellow road continued. Seaweed and seashells are trampled on.

“Here, guests, banquet!”

“…… well, let’s go.”

At the end of the road, I could see a small island. The star sign on the map pointed exactly to that place.

I don’t know what it is there, but that place has an event. Is there no other way but to go?

“This guy, why can’t you hold me more carefully, waeolg!”

“………Walk on your own.”

“Hmm, it’s not bad if you do this.”

As for the animals, Ash and I decided to walk with one each. I was with Lime and Ash took Mieum.

Mieum tossed to and fro for a long time as she felt uncomfortable in Ash’ arms before she finally found a pose she liked and made a whining sound.

The Golden Triangular Rhino will be left in the barn. It was a long distance to walk with a cow, and the cow didn’t want to move because it liked the barn.

It’s been a while since the four of us walked behind Pepe.

“Heuk, huuuh….”

I breathed out. My eyes were tingling with sweat.

It was terribly hot…….

Lime’s body was cool, so it felt good to touch it, but there was a limit for that.

The effect of ice cream coffee has already ceased. Furthermore, the more I moved, the stronger the heat became.

“Pepe, hukh … how long do we have left?”

I spoke to Pepe, the only one here who was fine.

“Soon, arrival, relax!”

“Why is it so hot here?”

“Hot? Pepe, cool!”

Yeah, you would … my body is not made of fire, I felt like I’m going to die….

Fortunately, however, as Pepe said, we soon arrived at our destination.

There was a village on a small island that I thought would only take 10 minutes to go around. Pepe led us to the village. Stone houses were sparsely visible, and there was a large temple in the center of the village. It was like an altar to worship the Eternal Living Flame.

And soon, I discovered the identity of this tremendous heat.

“Who, visitor, guest?”

Beyond the stone wall, the fire spirits that looked just like Pepe stuck their heads out. It was so hot because of the heat they radiated.

“Pepe, home, welcome.”

“Guests, welcome, banquet!”

The little spirits surrounded us and chattered. If possible, I would like to inform these spirits that there is a thing called structural prepositions in Korean. The words that were heard in pieces seemed to mean that they welcomed us as guests.

Pepe and the spirits took us to the center of town to hold a welcome party. However, there was an unexpected content among the words that were heard in pieces.

“Huh? There is other visitor besides us?”

“Traveler, distress, visit.”

Almost at the same time, an unfamiliar voice was heard in front of me.

“Ah, hot, it’s hot!”

No, it’s not an unfamiliar voice.

“Ha, I understand that you really want to see it, but it gets hot when you touch it all of a sudden. Yes, one by one, stand in line and watch one by one.”

There was a man showing his weapon to the crowd of fire spirits. A face with a slightly frivolous atmosphere and upturned eyes caught my attention.

“Oh, you guys, haha. Do you want to shake my hand? We can’t shake hands because my palm will burn, but what about autographs?”

And this unbearable way of speaking.

….No way.

“….Huh!”

Choi Cedric, who turned his head and found me, was startled.

……why are you here?

***

The table was set.

A large stone dining table in the town square. To not overshadow the word banquet, these fire spirits served a fairly generous menu.

Perhaps because it was an island in the middle of the sea, the main menu was seafood. It was fortunate that it wasn’t a fire-baked stone or black charcoal.

“Pepe, common sense, yes. Humans, stones, not eaten.”

“Uh … I’m sorry for the misunderstanding.”

“Food, delicious, eat!”

In particular, the fresh tuna sashimi that I picked up with chopsticks was delicious. The tuna tataki looked appetizing, and the grilled tuna tasted savory.

The heat emitted by the fire spirits cooked the seafood in real time.

“Waeolg, waeooong (The hospitality is quite good)!”

“Kkyuu….”

“………Not bad.”

After confirming that the party ate the food satisfactorily, I turned my head toward Choi Cedric. I never thought I would meet this guy here.

“How did you get here?”

“Huh? Me? I…….”

Choi Cedric, who was about to eat the well-cooked grilled tuna, put down his chopsticks and answered.

“My heart is heavy.”

“……what?”

Choi Cedric said he has a hobby of taking a dungeon walk whenever he feels depressed.

Is it the problem with the urban sprawl? Is it because there is not enough green space in Seoul? Leaving the decent park and taking a walk in the dungeon isn’t a hobby that I can sympathize with as a human being, but … everyone has different ways to relieve stress, so let’s understand it.

“That’s why I wanted to do one round of the Great Dungeon Abyss.”

“Wait, is this Abyss?”

“Huh, you didn’t know?”

“Of course I didn’t know. I slept and woke up to find the whole store was here.”

“What the … listen.”

Choi Cedric continued his explanation in a pompous voice.

In the Great Dungeon Abyss, there is a floor called the Safe Zone. It is difficult to understand that ‘Dungeon’ and ‘Safe’ can be used in one sentence, but anyway, it is said to be so.

Twenty years have passed since the huge dungeon suddenly appeared in the world. It wasn’t that Hunters hadn’t climbed the Great Dungeon for 20 years. The Safe Zone is where the moving gate was installed after the boss was eliminated.

“Hmm, I understand. You’re saying this is the Safe Zone, right?”

I picked up squid sashimi, which was raw squid sashimi, and asked. However, Choi Cedric shook his head.

“No, I don’t know that.”

“…..what?”

Choi Cedric was originally planning to go back after taking a walk in the Safe Zone. But he didn’t want to go home, so he went a little further and deeper. Then, he was caught up in a sudden etheric wave and fell into this field.

I expected a systematic explanation, but in the end, Choi Cedric is also in distress.

“Haaa, you … I thought you knew how to get out.”

“I can go out?”

“Huh?”

Choi Cedric took out a teleport scroll from the inventory.

“It’s a scroll that teleports to the gate. You can use this.”

“Why don’t you go back when you have something like this….”

“Just because. I don’t want to go home today.”

“Waeooong (Hoo, this guy’s natural flirting is pretty good).

“….Flirting?”

Ash turned his head with a sulky look. I pushed the grilled squid on the plate in front of Mieum. Fortunately, Mieum stopped talking nonsense because she was eating squid.

At that time, a fire spirit called Choi Cedric.

“Human, friend, help.”

“Oh, seriously, I’m in trouble if you keep calling me that. Yes, I’m coming, I’m coming.”

Tuk, a freshly caught fish was placed on the table.

Shashashak. Choi Cedric took out his sword and sliced the fish in an instant. The fire spirit applauded and cheered.

“Cutting, splendid, flawless.”

“What? Do you want me to do this too? Yeah, I can’t help it then.”

“Perfect, gorgeous, wonderful.”

He’s excited…..

So, he doesn’t know the details, but he doesn’t want to go home and the reactions of the spirits were spectacular. Intoxicated by the response of these spirits, he was spending time here without returning immediately.

Choi Cedric, who returned after slicing a few more fish, handed me his teleport scroll.

“I have an extra, so use this if you need it.”

“Huh, thank you. Thank you so much!”

I accepted it without hesitation. I can go back if I have this scroll. If I can go back, it doesn’t matter whether there’s a star sign on the map or an event.

However, I was devastated by Choi Cedric’s words that followed after that.

“But can you use it?”

“Uh … why?”

Is there any side effect? Or is it an item that cannot be used by F-class Awakeners?

“You said you came with the whole building earlier? If you use the scroll and go back, what will you do with the property?”

…….

…….

Ah, that’s right. My store….

If I go back just with my body like this, I will only have a few family members without a house or a store….

At that moment of frustration, a huge flame suddenly appeared in the sky.

Flames swirled in the air. A haze rose from the intense heat that could not be compared to before.

The fire spirits bowed down on the floor and cheered.

“Master, appear, welcome.”

“Master, hooray, welcome.”

[The Great Old One: The Eternal Living Flame Cthugha has appeared.]

[Welcome to the Garden of Cthugha, the Eternal Living Flame.]

The flame that floated in the air gradually turned into a human form.

Red hair flutters in the air.

Tak! The man who set foot on the floor with a bang looked like a human being made from flame. He looked like he was in his fifties. His hair, beard, and eyes were all red.

Pepe ran forward and bowed his head.

“Master, Pepe, come home. Humans, home, help.”

“….Hmm. Yes, you’ve had a hard time.”

Fortunately, the master of the spirits used the prepositions properly.

He looked at me in a crooked posture. Then, his face crumpled.

“Why is there a human here who smells like Heesun?”

What … who?
