SSS-Grade Cafe in Front of The Dungeon

Unexpectedly, the cafe has been in a difficult situation for the past few days due to the sudden increase in customers.

However, it’s different now.

Hoho, look at this perfect preparation.

The roasted beans were also aged just right, and the sub-ingredients were swept from the Dimensional Shop. I also made a lot of Lemon Chung. I went to Grandma Kim Deokyi’s workshop and bought many take-out cups.

With this amount, there will be no problem running the store for a while.

Clothing OK, cleaning OK, machine setting OK. Well, everything is perfect. We’re ready to reopen.

In the meantime, there has been one change in the store.

“What are you doing?”

“I’m preparing to open the cafe soon.”

“……hmm.”

He has a sulky voice and a cynical expression. Children of this age are really sensitive.

I found the boy collapsed at the shop door yesterday.

Like Jina, why is everyone falling down in front of this store? Is this some kind of falling hot spot?

Anyway, I brought the boy inside. He had a pale complexion with a very thin, frail body. In addition to his uncertain attitude about what had happened, he was reluctant to report to the police.

Why? What happened?

After all the pitiful and sad talk, I decided to look into it a bit more tomorrow before deciding whether to report it or not.

Anyway, it was already late at night, so I couldn’t let such a vulnerable child out. What if he fall down again? For now, I decided to put the child to sleep in an empty room on the first floor.

“Hey, what’s your name?”

An unexpected answer came back to the careful question.

“Do you think that a mere human can be qualified to call me by name?”

Uh, huh…?

Is it something like his setting?

“It looks like you don’t want to talk about it. Still I can’t just call you with hey, you …. then I’ll give you a temporary one.”

The pale boy looked uneasy.

“Waeoooooong (I don’t think that’s a good idea)!”

“Kkyuuu!”

Mieum and Lime’s protests were ignored.

“What do you think about Bieup?”

“……!”

The boy’s face contorted. He poured out his next words in a low, quick tone.

“The infinite evil seething from the the primordial chaos, the incarnation that shared the magical powers of the Abyss. What do you think of Asmodeus, the Demon King who brings twilight to the world! It’s a name that humans can’t pronounce recklessly!”

Uh, huh…? Twilight … what?

Is this the 8th-grader syndrome that I’ve only heard of? Is it like a black flame dragon on his left arm?

“Yeah, since I can’t pronounce it, you’re Bieup.”

“……!”

Tingling. The boy stared at me and shuddered.

“My name is Asmodeus.”

“Asmo … what? It’s too long.”

“Haaa …. cih, call me whatever you like.”

In the end, I decided to call him Ash.

It wasn’t his real name, no matter how I heard it. Since he’s of a delicate and sensitive age, I have to adapt to his worldview.

“Yes, the bathroom is over there. You have bandage on your left arm, are you hurt?”

“……! Don’t touch it. The bandage on this arm cannot be removed because the magic of the Abyss is asleep.”

“What’s that?”

“Those who doesn’t have the magical eye won’t be able to see it. It is an incarnation imprint that connects me with the being in the Abyss.”

“…….”

I see. He’s the real one. He has such a genuine cheeky expression and tone.

Yes, let’s respect Ash’s setting as an adult.

“Uh … huh, if it’s that important, I won’t touch it.”

“Haa … to be able to recognize the value of this imprint, you’re quite good for a human being. You will be swallowed up by the darkness.”

It’s a compliment … is it?

So, after putting this unusual Ash to sleep, the next morning came.

After a simple breakfast, I gave him a sweet cup of coffee and Ash drank it well. Although his expression was sulky as if it were not delicious, I was proud because the satisfaction bar above his head was honestly filling up.

“It’s time to open the cafe soon. You can stay as long as you want, so play comfortably with the kids in the back room.”

“Waeooong (Do you think we are in charge of babysitting)!”

Mieum protested as she straightened her tail.

“Kkyuuu!”

There’s also a slime that agrees next to her.

Seriously, what are you guys doing to a hurt sensitive child? Are you being territorial with a child because you’ve been here for a long time?

“Why, you’re similar in age, and you’re perfect …. ah, ouch!”

I couldn’t avoid the meow punch flying from the front because I was concerned about Ash.

Mieum is eating well, I felt like her front feet are getting heavier.

“……what are you doing?”

A cynical voice was heard again. Ash looked at me and the animals alternately with a gaze of looking at something pathetic.

“Ehem, ehem. Then, Mieum-ah, Lime-ah, please take care of him.”

“Humph.”

“…..Kyaoong!”

Ash jerked Mieum’s tail. Surprised, Mieum threw a meow punch, but Ash avoided it leisurely.

“Kkyuu! Kkyuu!”

I don’t know which side it’s rooting for, but Lime is encouraging them from the side.

See, they’re in sync.

***

As soon as the cafe opened, which was notified in advance, customers rushed in.

“One takeaway cafe latte, please.”

“I’ll have two iced Americanos. That’s right, and please add a cafe mocha.”

“Oh, is it a new menu? Then, please give me an Einspanner.”

I was extremely busy taking orders, making drinks, and washing dishes.

Save me…..

The procession of customers never ends…….

Where did my healing life after the regression, the one that was supposed to be a relaxed, lazy, and comfortable life, go?

Where the hell did the rumors about my coffee come from? It’s not like I was on a broadcast or did viral marketing.

The fact that I make the coffee through my skills seems still unknown, so there is nothing dangerous at the moment other than overwork.

“This 255, 0, 0 vivid color, this size and the fluffiness! This cushion is so familiar … It must be the limited edition of Real Red Slime Large Cushion, it’s pretty outdated custom production … where did you buy this cushion….”

“Ah, I bought it from Karrot.”

At that time, Lime bounced and leaned on the soft cushion.

“Keuhuk! Sli-slime on the cushion I sent away with tears … the meeting of the Real Red Slime and Real Red Slime Cushion! It’s an honor … can I take a picture…..”

“Yes.”

Click, click, click! She takes a lot of pictures of Lime, who’s posing around as a model.

Like her, there were slightly strange customers, but other than that, most were ordinary customers.

After taking care of a flood of orders, I took a moment to post a part-time job recruitment notice at the door. I hope that I can find a part-timer as soon as possible so that I can get out of this busy situation.

Although there are zero contacts so far…….

I don’t know if Choi Yichan is doing well. I don’t know what’s going on, but he might as well give me a phone call.

I didn’t think of him just because I needed a part-timer. It’s just … he stayed here for a few days and then disappeared, so this place felt a little empty.

When I returned to the counter after posting the recruitment notice, Ash was taking orders from customers who had gathered in a short time.

“Ash, just rest. You don’t have to do that.”

No matter how busy I am, how can I make that frail child, whom I presumed to be a runaway teenager, work for me? Even when he’s just sitting there, I felt like he was going to faint.

The reason I told Ash that it was okay to stay here today was purely from my heart.

However, Ash skillfully received the pouring orders.

“Two iced cafe lattes, one Einspanner, two vanilla lattes, and one cookie set. They came in like this.”

“Uh, wait, how much is it…….”

“15 rubies.”

Each time I made a drink, he served it quickly, and even cleaning the table perfectly.

“Ugh!”

“……? What’s wrong with you?”

“Nothing, it’s just blinding me for a moment.”

What is this incredible ability…….

With his cynical expression and a slender figure, it’s unimaginably fast and perfect movement. In an instant, the delayed orders were processed and the store was cleared.

He shook off his hand and asked suddenly.

“Are you looking for a part-timer? What should I do to do that?”

Tiling!

[A quest has occurred.]

[Main Quest: Finding a Part-Timer

The customers are rushing in like the tide. You can’t handle this popularity alone!

You need help.

Hiring part-timer: 0/1

Rewards: Experience (100 EXP), Fame (10), Popularity (10), Skill Point 1]

As soon as Ash spoke, a new quest appeared.

I looked at Ash again. With a small and slender body, he has a cynical expression on his face, but the cheeks that gives off a youthful appearance caught my eye.

“I’m sorry….”

“What?”

“Part-time jobs are only available for people over 15 years old.”

Ash replied indifferently to the words I had said.

“How old do you think I am? I’m not that young.”

“How old are you?”

“Well, I haven’t counted properly since I was 2000.”

Ah, that’s his setting….

“Fail.”

“……!”

“65 is the retirement age.”

At the playful addition, Ash hesitated for a moment and murmured.

“I’m 17 years old.”

He appeared to be under 15 on the outside, but he was older than I thought.
