Beep, beep, beep.
I turned off the alarm on my phone and buried my head in bed. The blanket was warm and the pillow was fluffy. It’s still too early to get up. It’s not like I’m opening the cafe anyway, so I’ll enjoy a little more morning sleep. After returning from the dungeon, I took a week off. I had a lot going on with the incident, I was tired, and I just needed a break.
Of course, escaping the dungeon didn’t an that things were imdiately clear, as the aftermath of the “Super Buff Coffee” incident took so ti to clean up. There were a lot of other things that happened in the anti…….
No, I’m too sleepy to think about such complicated things. I’ll think about it after I get so more sleep.
“Hoaaam……”
I pulled the warm blanket over my head and slept soundly. I closed my heavy eyelids and gently drifted back to sleep….
“Unyaaaaah! Human, give my food!”
“Kkyuuu!”
Mieum and Li jumped up on the bed and bounced around. The surrounding cries from both sides were not very favourable for sleeping.
Ah, I should have locked the door.
“Haaaa … I left so rice in the bowl, eat it.”
To avoid this situation, I had put food out for these animals last night…….
“Kyagaoorgh! (I don’t know whose nose you want to stick that on)!”
You’ve already done it.
“Kkyuuu! Kkyuuu!”
“Ugh, Li, don’t jump on my belly. You’re heavy!”
Argh, all this commotion has woken up. I pulled the blanket over my head and covered my ears, but once awake, my mind was clear. I reluctantly pushed myself out of bed. It was a holiday, so I resented being woken up so early in the morning.
“Ash, did you sleep well?”
“….Yeah.”
When I went downstairs, Ash was already up and dressed neatly. It’s his day off, so he can sleep in …… he’s such a diligent kid.
Wait a minute. Why did they wake up for food if Ash is here? Are these animals not hungry and just want to disturb my sleep? I grumbled in frustration as I put food in the animals’ bowls.
“Isn’t it strange that a cafe owner is so busy?”
“In case you didn’t know, self-employnt is supposed to be busy, ow!”
“That’s not what I’m talking about…….”
Now that my eyes were open, I wondered if I should have breakfast now, too. I yawned lazily and checked the fridge.
Knock, knock.
I heard a knock on the door. Who is it, at this ti? It can’t be a custor, because I have a big sign on the front that says ‘Closed today‘.
As an aside, in the aftermath of the monster branches incident, which was triggered by the imitation coffee, the Hunter world has recently been divided. The purebloods and the half-breeds, the true buff coffees and the false buff coffees, the faithful and the traitors …. there are different expressions for these two factions, but the idea is the sa. There are two types of people: those who have only been drinking from and those who have also been drinking from .
It was almost as if the forr were persecuting the latter, but the representative of the forr was Ju Noeul.
Anyway, there is one point that these two factions agreed on without disagreent. The imitation coffee incident caused a lot of trouble, so they wouldn’t bother until the end of my holiday, which ant I didn’t get any business inquiries during my ti off.
‘On the last day of such a precious holiday, my sleep was interrupted…….’
Knock!
Oops. I was so lost in thought. I opened the door only slightly and peeked out.
“I’m taking the day off today, so …… what’s up?”
“Hello,Owner-nim! I’m from Hunter TV. I apologize, I took the liberty of visiting you because I really wanted to ask you sothing.”
Oh. Was it an interview?
“I answered all the questions about the incident at the press conference. Other than that, I don’t do interviews.”
Unfortunately, due to the huge aftermath of the incident, it was impossible to leave saying, ‘This is the end of the cafe owner’s role. Please take care of the situation, everyone!’.
At the very least, I had to co-operate with the investigation, which inevitably led to a briefing press conference. I actually tried to sneak out of it…….
“Rieul-ssi is the number one contributor to solving the case, so how can we do it without Rieul-ssi! You’re making concessions like that again!”
I couldn’t refuse as Kim Jina grabbed and said, that. I think it was a bit misunderstood. I was very nervous even though I was given a questionnaire in advance and all I had to do was just answering questions.
Is this why strong-but-mysterious concept is trendy? I should be strong too, but I’m weak, ugh….
After going through all of that, I was fed up. I can’t do it anymore. I’ve exhausted all of my available social skills and have decided to quit. I turned down all the interviews and requests for features and went on a week’s holiday. Today is the last day of that holiday. I thought it was ti for the requests to stop coming, but I guess so people are a bit late in getting the news.
“I’m sorry. Please take a look.”
With that, I turned to close the door, but the reporter caught the doorknob, “No, Owner-nim. What we’re about to ask you has nothing to do with the last Sephirot branch incident.”
“Really?” I blurted out, startled. The reporter’s eyes blazed with eagerness and curiosity for the scoop.
“We have received information that Muwon, the number one ranked Hunter, is often seen here. How did you co to know Muwon?”
“What?”
“In particular, there was an urgent report that he was very close to you, Owner-nim! Please say sothing about this!”
“….yes?”

I don’t think being a tank is that good; I have to hold up a shield and get hit all the ti ㅜㅜ
Looking for a way to beco a wizard

— Li Love Team: Why are you making a big deal of being a wizard all of sudden? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
└ HingHungHong: Wizard is aweso ㅜㅜ They don’t have to use a shield or a weapon, if I had known it would be like this, I would have beco a wizard too.
— SugarLick: Huh? What the hell are you talking about;;; Wizards is not so good;
└ HingHungHong:It looked really good to ????? They don’t even morize the spell and just aim at the boss, but it’s ga over. They don’t have to hit and run with the shield f**cking cool it’s like a noble class
└ SugarLick: I’m saying this because I’m a wizard, so I know that isn’t true?; LOL To use magic, a wand is essentialㅡㅡ The wand is expensive, but if you draw the magic circle with the wrong force, it breaks. Was it made with wooden chopsticks?;; I have to morize spells and I always drink potions, which makes it not a good class at all ㅋㅋㅋ
└ HingHungHong:I’ve seen a wizard doing magic without a wand and spells???? They made a net using so kind of light, and it was a one-shot kill?? It was so cool LMAO are you trying to fool ????
└ SugarLick:Why do you keep insisting,,, don’t you that the wizard’s tier is not good because the wizard’s efficiency is so poor

— FLIGHT: Wait a minute, HingHungHong, you said you went to that monster branch dungeon, right? Did you see that wizard there?
└ HingHungHong: Wow, why are you suddenly trying to find out my personal information? That’s right, but whyㅡㅡ
└ FLIGHT: Isn’t that not a wizard, but Muwon?
└ HingHungHong:Why did Muwon co out of here????
└ FLIGHT: You wrote that earlier ㅋㅋㅋ you said they killed a monster in one hit with a net of light without using a staff or a spell. I think that’s Muwon’s unique skill?
— HingHungHong: That’s ridiculous lol stop please ㅋㅋㅋ I’ve seen that person a few tis, what do you an Muwon? why is Muwon there lol?
└ red***: But just by looking at the description, it is impossible not to be Muwon,, there is no Hunter who uses such skills other than Muwon in Korea
└ HaHa: yeah that’s right he usually stays quiet but shows up once in a while when sothing big happens. That was the case with the Gyeongju rift last ti too, so did he co there secretly this ti too?
└ mil***: what a strong and energetic spirit haha
— OO: HingHungHong t Muwon???? Wow, wow, where did you et him??
└ HingHungHong: caferieul
└ rtr***: ???? Is it real??
└ HingHungHong: But I don’t think he’s really Muwon;; that’s real absurdㅡㅡ Anyway, the person I saw is a regular at CFR, It seems like he knows the Owner-nim well.
— MM: Is it this person? [Link]
└ HingHungHong: Heol, no matter how curious you are, why are you posting pictures of regular Hunters?
└ MM: I just sent the link of the Dungeon Managent Office website; there’s a comndation ceremony today.
└ HingHungHong: The black-haired man in the right corner of the photo
└ Li Love Team: What????????? That’s him????
└ OO: Eh, I think I’ve seen him before on CFR too? He seed to be close to the Owner-nim and ca there often.
— red***: Then, Muwon is the head of the Cheongna Guild, and sotis he deals with big rifts alone, and he also manages to show his face everyday on CFR,,, and he’s the first in the ranking, he must have three bodies
└ SugarLick:What’s the relationship with the CFR Owner-nim,,
— Hunter TV Choi Sera: Hello, Hunter HingHungHong-nim. I’m reporter Choi Sera of Hunter TV. Can I ask you about the Hunter you recently t in the Sephiroth Branch Dungeon? We will also give you a small information fee, so please contact us! .

After finally sending the persistent reporters away, I was left to ponder.
The fact that Ki Yoohyun’s identity had leaked out to the reporters wasn’t surprising, especially considering his usual behaviour. He’s always been so subtle, and he used his skills so expertly in the Monster Branch Dungeon, so if you pay attention, you’ll be able to guess his identity.
‘Even Choi Yichan also seed to know Ki Yoohyun’s identity.…’
I have no idea why he kept hiding his identity. Hero movies that end with the character revealing that he’s a hero in front of reporters. These days, characters who promote themselves like that are really popular, so why can’t he just tell them that he’s the Muwon?
While I was standing next to the president at the press conference, shouting, ‘Fighting the Dunjeon Managent Office! Fighting Cafe Rieul!‘ and going through the trouble of being photographed, he was the only one who slipped out.
“You look like you’re holding a grudge, waeoong!”
“Kkyuuu!”
“……I’m in a bad mood.”
However, one thing that puzzles is … people starting to co to our cafe to find out about Muwon’s identity.

Translator’s Corner:
회빙환 (HoiBingHwan): Abbreviation for regression, possession, reincarnation, the term commonly used in web-novels. Hoi from 회귀, returning to the past and changing your life (regression), Bing from 빙의, becoming a character in a novel whose ending you know (possession), Hwan from 환생 or being reborn as another person.
Anyway ㅋㅋㅋ is laughing emoji, i can’t keep using “hahaha” or “lol” everyti so i just wrote it as it is.
Also ,,, two years doing this story and I just realised I made a horrible mistranslation of the forum’s notice. I usually always copy-paste that part everyti after first doing it in the prologue, and so hours ago when that I randomly looked at it, it hit that the word used refers to a gaming term, not an actual “Slave Hunter”, while in gaming the term usually refers to the act of chasing and trying to kill the opponent in a situation where they are running away due to lack of blood or are outnumbered. I translated it to “harassnt” for easy understanding and to fit the content better.. I’m so sorry TT
I’m sorry this chapter was supposed to be posted yesterday but my laptop refused to wake up asdfghjkl aaand HAPPY HOLIDAY EVERYONE! lets et again in 2024 (I hope I’m still alive :D)! Also, what do you guys doing this holiday? 😀
