Why did the post suddenly get deleted? What was it about? I became more curious because it got deleted.

I’ve come up with a determined spirit. I sat down and started browsing the posts on the Hunter Channel.

It was not an exaggeration to say that all Hunters registered in Korea use Hunchan, so it was not easy to find the information I wanted because it was a large community.

In addition, it was difficult to recognize because there were many cases where the title was written in an usual way to avoid showing up on the search result.

[Chatting] I went to get a numbered ticket today.

I found the most plausible title and clicked it….

[Chatting] I went to get a numbered ticket today.

I went there today, and the calico cat is so cute.

It looked like a baked bread in front of the heater.

I also gave it snacks ㅇㅅㅇ)v

Cherry Dumplings: aw aw cute cat

……………………………………

It was completely unrelated.

No wonder Mieum didn’t eat a lot today. It must have been because she got snacks.

“Wae-waeooong! It’s rude to take a picture of this body without permission!”

Contrary to what she said, her face clearly showed joy.

“Kkyuu….”

Lime seemed to be disappointed because there was no talk about her.

Cheer up, Lime. You already have two ardent followers.

It took a long time to browse the Hunter Channel with the animals that kept interfering. This time, I found the post that I really wanted.

It was a new post that was posted 30 seconds ago.

[Chating] Direct Transaction of Unopened Cold Brew (0)

Upvotes: 0 / Downvotes: 0

Writer: YY

Bought today. Good condition.

There are two cups left for an hour and a half of state retention time.

Price 10 rubies per cup.

Direct transfer message.

NO HIT AND RUN & NEGO.

“What the…”

It was outrageous and it annoyed me.

I understand if you hand over the numbered ticket because you couldn’t come to the cafe due to a situation. You might want others to be able to taste the coffee instead of making the ticket wasted for nothing.

However, these posts reminded me of the time when I tried to get a concert ticket at the request of Shin Mira. There was only crazy ticket scalpers who wrote down a price that was several times the original price and came out like a trash human.

In other words, these posters are the same kind of guys. A merchant. Just look at the fact that they make a post with a temporary nickname, then deletes it immediately when they gets an offer.

What is transfer! It’s for sale and the price is 10 rubies?

Currently, the menu sold at the cafe is priced between 1 and 5 rubies. The cheapest Americano is 1 ruby. Since the price of whiskey sold at the Dimensional Shop was quite expensive, Irish Coffee was the most expensive at 5 rubies.

I’ve been asked to raise the price quite a bit. Previously, Ki Yoohyun also said that coffee prices were too cheap, but I have no intention of raising the price right now.

It was hard at first because I had to brew everything from coffee beans with my own labor. It’s like a cafe life that starts with zero.

However, now the coffee making is mostly automated. It costs little to make the ingredients, and once the beans are roasted, there is not much to do after that.

So, I think the price is reasonable.

I’m already rich enough to earn rubies one after another anyway. If I only think about money, there is no reason to do this labor. I’m just doing it because I want to run a cafe.

That’s it.

But when I saw them doing business with the coffee I made … I felt unhappy. Ash and I are working hard, but these bad resellers are earning money through our hardships.

Tiling. The system notification sounded just in time.

[A quest has occurred.]

[Sub Quest: Let’s Eradicate The Black Ticket Trade and Find The Light

This is a big deal!

Bad reseller has appeared in your cafe.

Let’s drive them out and create a healthy cafe culture together.

Drive out the merchant who takes unfair advantage: (Incomplete)

Rewards: Experience (10 EXP), Fame (1), Popularity (2), Silver Teaspoon]

As if it was made in haste, the quest reward were small. Still, the compensation was not a problem right now. Even if the quest didn’t appear, I couldn’t leave it like this.

Hmm, what should I do….

“What’s wrong with you?”

As I stared at my phone and put on a hard expression, Ash poked his head. I showed the post I just found and briefly explained the situation to him.

“I can’t believe there are such vicious people….! It is an evil deed that even the primordial chaos would be astonished at.”

As expected, Ash, who works at the cafe with me all day, was furious. Let’s spend some time empathizing with each other using anger as fuel.

“We have to blow up meteor on such humans.”

“Huh … no, no, that’s not it! Ash, stop for a second!”

I hurriedly rushed to catch the part-timer of my house.

It’s very infuriating that the scalpers sold the numbered ticket and earned more money, but that doesn’t mean we can use force. After I explained that, Ash calmed down, but he asked me with a sullen expression.

“….what are you going to do then?”

Right, what should I do? Report it to the Dungeon Management Office or Hunter Channel?

That will only have a temporary effect. There is a limit to sanctions if it is regarded as an individual transaction. At best, they will delete the post, and the merchant will do business more secretly in the future.

This is a problem with black tickets and illegal trading at higher prices. The harm is great, but the grounds for legal punishment are ambiguous.

I can’t use force immediately as my radical part-timer suggested….

Still, I’m too angry to leave it alone.

After much consideration, I decided to ask Ki Yoohyun for his opinion. He’s a veteran Hunter, so he might have some good ideas.

I sent a KakaoTalk message with that in mind, and I received a reply right away.

[Ki Yoohyun]

If you tell me the description of that person, I’ll take care of it. ^^

…….

Why are you asking about the description?

I have a hunch that ‘taking care of‘ that Ki Yoohyun mentioned is not a sincere conversation or persuasion. It was clear that this man’s idea was not much different from Ash.

After all, this happened because there was demand. Someone wants to get a numbered ticket comfortably without waiting even if they need to pay 10 rubies.

I wish I could systematically prevent this situation first rather than directly harming the merchant.

Is there any way……

….Ah.

I called one of the contacts on my phone. The dialing went short and soon the call was connected.

“Hello! Yes, it’s been a while since I contacted you. How have you been? I’d like to ask you a favor….”

***

“You can just rest.”

“Heh … a shady place is my path.”

It has become a regular holiday for Cafe Rieul.

It’s been a while, so I wanted to be idle all day long, but as soon as I woke up, I got ready to go out. The purpose, of course, was to find a way to deal with the ticket scalpers.

Ash also decided to go with me. He still has a brusque expression, but he seems excited to wear his new clothes.

It’s our first time going out together since we went shopping in Yongsan last time. Not to mention the trip to Yongsan ended up being a mess.

Maybe I should have taken him around a little more….

“Then, children, stay calm and guard the house.”

After a while, the sounds of ‘waeooong’ and ‘kyuuuu’ were heard from the corner.The animals were already busy playing and didn’t care about it, so I opened the door and left.

After leaving the store, I headed to the Hunter Market.

My steps are heavy. To be honest, I didn’t want to come. The last time I came to that place, the staff was so unkind.

It’s not like I’m hurt by every staff’s attitude that is so strong to the weak. Still, I don’t feel like I want to go get cold treatment….

“Haa….”

“What’s the matter? Aren’t you going in here?”

Since I was standing in front and I didn’t go straight into the entrance, Ash beckoned to me.

“Yeah, it’s useless to keep hesitating….”

There’s a saying that it’s better to get hit first.

“Yeah, I’ll go. Ash, come with me.”

In that way, I made my own determination and entered the entrance on the first floor of Hunter Market.

“Welcome. What can I do for you?”

A kind smile and a friendly tone greeted me, but I know this perfect customer service attitude will melt away like the snow the moment I give out my Hunter ID.

“Uh, I’m looking for something….”

It was the moment I was about to reveal my purpose with a trembling heart.

“Ah! I’m sorry I didn’t recognise you, Hunter-nim!”

“Yes?”

“Thank you for visiting Hunter Market. We will serve you with all our heart and soul to satisfy Hunter-nim today. I’ll take you to the VVIP room, so please come this way with your company.”

“What….?”

I happened to be dragged into the VVIP room and sat down. With its luxurious interior, the sofa was soft enough to fall asleep right there. The staff accepted my bag and coat, and as soon as we sat down, they served expensive refreshments and juices as a welcome food.

I didn’t come to buy anything, this excessive kindness was burdensome.

The question of why they suddenly dud this to me didn’t last long. The staff quiety approached me and talked to me.

“Hunter Kwon RieuI-nim, I have heard the reputation of Cafe Rieul well.”

“Haha … thank you.”

Aha.

I guess I was more famous than I thought I was. The coffee of Cafe Rieul is very popular, so I got this kind of treatment even though I’m an F-class?

The staff spoke again, showing excessive kindness by pouring juice into the empty juice glasses.

“Umh, could you give me the honor of tasting Hunter-nim’s coffee separately….?”

“You can come tomorrow morning and get the numbered ticket.”

However, the staff reacted with disdain.

“It’s not that….”

“……?”

“Our Hunter Market has a close relationship with many VVIPs. We have a long-standing relationship with not only the top rankers, but also the executives of the main office.”

“But….?”

“If you allow me to taste Hunter-nim’s coffee separately, you will be able to build a good relationship with many VVIPs. It will also help you establish your position in the Hunter World.”

As I said before, my coffee is popular, so try serving it to those high-ranking people as a bribe.

Translator’s Corner:

Life happened (apparently, doing volunteer works is really time and energy consuming) and I missed the timing for the New Year’s Eve, so I decided to start this year on Lunar New Year ….

Happy Lunar New Year, everyone! I hope you guys like these chapters, I will do more tonight~
