SSS-Grade Cafe in Front of The Dungeon Chapter 9

SSS-Grade Cafe in Front of The Dungeon — Chapter 9

“Run … run away!”

I shouted sharply, but Jas didn’t move.

He just glanced back at the monster and waved his hand.

“Keeek!”

A fierce wind blew and the next mont, the fla raccoon split in two. The situation was over in a flash. Jas smiled leisurely at Jina and even reassured .

“Don’t worry. I can defeat this monster.”

Thank Goodness.

I was afraid that a large-scale dungeon break would explode, but it must have been just one monster.

Unlike in the past, the crisis can be avoided. My heart finally cald down when I saw the raccoon completely double-sliced.

Jina was away for a while to contact the main office, and Jas asked .

“Tell where I can buy this fantastic coffee.”

“Yes? If you co any ti, I will serve you coffee.”

“I will return ho in three days. I don’t want to go back ho when I think that I can’t taste this perfect taste again. Please let know.”

This is just an instant coffee produced by mainstream brand. The coffee mix that is sold in most supermarkets in Korea.

I just brewed it using the ‘Cafe in My Hand‘ skill.

Still, I was overwheld with Jas’s enthusiasm and stopped my honest answer.

“When you go to the supermarket, they sell coffee in bags like this. Yeah? Ah, I’ll write down the brand na and the address here, so if you ask the staff….”

I wrote down the supermarket address and the instant coffee brand’s na in a neat paper and handed it over to Jas.

But at that very mont.

Puk.

,Monster’s claws pierced Jas’ chest.

Segek.

Blood spattered with a creepy sound as if sothing was being crushed.

Its large mouth opened wide and sharp teeth bit Jas’ arm.

Drip, drip. The blood that flows down mixed with the monster’s saliva.

Uh? What is this?

My brain isn’t working properly.

I’m scared. My body trembled with instinctive fear and I couldn’t even move properly.

Big mouth and sharp teeth. The monster that appeared now was not like a C-class Fla Raccoon.

It’s much bigger….

“Ugh, Heukh, Euhuk … Ugh!”

Jas groaned and covered the wound with his hand. However, it was not enough to stop the pouring blood. Even at a glance, the wound just now was fatal.

“Run away. I will stop this monster.”

Jas, who staggered up, used his skill.

“Keeeeek!”

The monster that was cut by the blade wind scread. Is it working?

However, even after the gust of wind stopped, the monster was still intact.

“Ugh….”

‘It’s disgusting….’

The monster I saw right in front of resembled a bear. However, it was just so big and scary that it could not be compared to an ordinary bear.

The fur seed as hard as steel, and the head reached the ceiling of the store. There were horns on the monster’s head and it seed like a hole would be drilled in the ceiling.

[A Cave Black Bear (A) has appeared.]

It’s an A-class?

The late system notification delivered disappointing information.

“Keuuung!”

While screaming, the cave black bear swung its front paws.

Crack! The table, cut in half by sharp claws, fell sideways, and blocking our path.

I could hide behind the table, but it was only a matter of ti before I died. If the monster hits an old wooden table twice, it will beco powder.

Jas’ wounds were fatal at first glance.

I wasn’t confident of running away from that monster’s attack with Jas. No, it’s the sa even if I was alone. No matter how I get out, the monster will co after and tear apart.

Ugh, it really hurts to be torn by a monster’s claws. Since I am speaking from experience, you can believe this claim. It’s an experience I never want to go through twice

“….!”

Crunch.

The heavy front paws tore the table like a piece of paper. Now it was ti for the monster to tear apart with just two steps.

Am I going to die again? In vain like this?

A few days’ events that I experienced after returning from the future ran through my head.

It was a second life that was too short.

The fate of dying in the monster’s hands doesn’t change, did regression just change the place of death?

Such pessimistic thoughts dominated my mind.

“Ugh….!”

The mont I foresee the pain that will follow and close my eyes tightly, a translucent barrier surrounded by light appeared in front of . It was Jas’ skill.

I was relieved for a while, but when the cave black bear pounded the barrier, it began to crack little by little.

When the barrier did not break at once, the monster hit it with its horns this ti.

Bang!

The barrier shook as if it were about to break.

“Unbelievable….”

Jas muttered with a look of despair. The pain seed considerable. His face was pale, and his biting lips were almost purple.

He murmured in a harsh voice, perhaps determined to let only run away.

“Run away. I cannot move.”

Even so, it hurts my conscience to leave the dying hunter alone and there is no way to escape in the first place.

“Mieum, is there any way? Mieum!”

I called out Mieum with the feeling of grabbing the last straw.

Agent of the system … it’s because she said she’s not an ordinary cat.

“ooong (Why is that here….)”

“Mieum?”

“….”

But Mieum didn’t answer.

She just groaned at the cave black bear with her fur raised. I was hoping for a secret skill that could solve this situation, but there seems to be no other way.

You said you were an agent! You said you weren’t an ordinary cat!

“Why is that thing here … that’s not like a C-class Fla Raccoon! It’s a cursed apostle who now submits to a sealed higher being.”

Mieum?

“Hey, can’t you just tell in words I know?”

I have no idea what you an by being a higher being or an apostle.

It’s a completely fantasy world.

And right now, right before being torn by the monster’s claws, it was not an appropriate situation to talk about it.

“The cave black bear is not an ordinary monster. A long ti ago ██ made ████….”

“Mieum?”

Again. I couldn’t hear so of Mieum’s words. Furthermore, a red system window blinked in front of my eyes.

[Warning: Abnormal Approach]

[System Error: —. —.—]

[System Error: —. —.—]

Mieum and the system window, the things I gained through awakening, were of no help in this crisis situation.

I’m glad Jina isn’t here. At least one person could have run away. I hope she wouldn’t be too surprised when she found out later.

The mont when I’m ready for my second death.

There was a twinkling red light on the inner wall.

A red light was leaking from the door leading to the space.

Was it originally that color? It used to be blue.

No, it wasn’t the ti to think about it. Let’s go into that space first. Monsters won’t be able to get there, so let’s hang in there until another hunter cos to rescue us.

“….”

The thought of what to do cald down.

It’s too early to die. I’ve regressed, but I haven’t even completed the tutorial quest yet!

“Get up at once.”

“Leave and run away.”

“Hurry up. We need to move before the barrier collapses.”

I put my arm under Jas’ armpit and got up. My legs trembled at the heavy weight of his body.

In the anti, Jas’ face was getting worse every minute by minute. I was terrified that he might die like this.

No, there is still ti. He can survive if he enters the space through the door. I sohow managed to support his large body and move inward.

It’s just a little further. Just a little bit….

Brak!

Just a few steps away, the barrier that had been close to the ground completely shattered with a bursting sound.

Ooooooh!

The cave black bear scread and ran towards .

There was a red-lighted door right in front of , but it’s already too late. It would be faster for the cave black bear to tear apart than for to jump through the door.

“Ugh….”

Mieum said sothing at my feet, but I couldn’t afford to answer. I just pray that this death will be less painful.

“….Uh?”

The cave black bear that was running at us paused and hardened. Then it faltered back. It still drooled and showed its teeth, but there was no sign that it would be rushing foward.

What’s wrong with it?

The cave black bear seed to be afraid of sothing. It looked at , or to be exact, the wall behind us with terrified eyes.

A gate on the wall that emits red light.

Suddenly, I felt a trendous pressure from beyond the wall. My heart is pounding at an unknown sensation.

There’s sothing. It’s sothing sinister.

I couldn’t figure it out, but the primal fear that knowing there was sothing terrifying took over my body. I was sweating profusely without realizing it.

But what the hell is in there? When I t Mieum, there was only a cozy lawn under the blue sky. I was embarrassed by the unfamiliar space itself, but there was no sign of danger.

Then, a voice ca into my head.

[There’s soone who doesn’t know the subject and installs it in my ██.]

System ssage? No, it’s different. It sounds like the system ssage, but much lower … it was a deep voice.

I had goosebumps. It seems like Jas didn’t hear anything because he gave no respond.

Am I the only one who heard it?

Maybe I … should I go to the hospital?

[Go back, apostle. This is my ██, there is nowhere for you to set foot.]

It seed like soone laughed.

An extrely rough laugh.

Almost at the sa ti as the voice stopped, a flash of light flashed.

Thud!

The cave black bear fell down.

“….”

“….”

The cave black bear turned into ashes and disappeared. The place where there was a huge body now only filled with soot and dust.

What happened?

It happened so quickly that I couldn’t understand the situation well. All of sudden, the monster disappeared. Is it really dead?

My head was filled with only doubts, then suddenly I heard a man’s soft voice from the entrance.
