One unexpected thing.

Eunha is a stubborn person in a strange way.

Jibakryeong for promotion exam.

The owner of Saetbyeol Apartments violated the rules of the [Blood Donation Bus] more than 10 times in order to receive a free gift.

and…

A woman who has been banging on the ceiling for the past few days has been sleeping less because of the noise from upstairs.

“Eunha unnie. You’ve been looking tired for the past few days. How many hours do you sleep a day?”

“Um… about 2 hours a day? There was a lot to do.”

Eunbangul’s small cafe, [Rabbit Latte].

Eunha, who was waiting for a customer at the checkout counter, blinked sleepily.

A look of concern from the side.

A bunny girl returns from organizing items in the warehouse and approaches, pricking her white rabbit ears.

But then he sighs and shakes his head as if there is nothing he can do.

“I really can’t live… What kind of strange behavior has people started doing this time that prevents them from sleeping? Is it because you go to [Crack Market] on holidays?”

“No? Probably not?”

“Don’t go to the emergency room after shattering a blood vessel in your brain while trying to build muscles that aren’t even as good as last year, or doing ‘188 hours of sleep-free weight training’ or something like that! Whatever you do, rest in moderation and do it in moderation!”

August 4th.

Second [Rift Field] expedition, the day before.

In the morning, the white rabbit ears of a worried rabbit are tapping on the left elbow.

Eunha smiled languidly as usual and carefully picked up the girl’s nagging sounds that were piercing her eardrums.

The cool air conditioner breeze caressing your skin.

The sound of Ban Harin’s laptop tapping on a nearby table.

The faint scent of coffee tickles the tip of your nose and you run away,

A peaceful day in August.

‘Maybe it’s because I haven’t been able to sleep recently, but my head doesn’t feel refreshed even in the morning. The stiffness in my back is the same, but…’

Eunha patted her temple, which was throbbing from lack of sleep, and focused on work.

… … .

(That… lady. I received a call from [Room 1004] to the security office. They said they would do it in moderation, so please stop.)

Did they say there is no tree that cannot be felled by taking ten shots?

I’m not sure, but if you knock on the ceiling all day after leaving work at the cafe, the noise between floors will decrease in 3 days.

All you need is a chair to stand on and a tool to knock on the ceiling.

And a little effort and time.

So Eunha did what she could as a building owner,

In the end, this morning, I was able to reach an amicable agreement with the upstairs neighbor through the security guard.

Of course, interfloor noise has not completely disappeared.

I only received a hint that I would do it in moderation.

Nevertheless, Eunha felt an inexplicable sense of pride in the fact that she had obtained something from a fearsome monster, and was able to start the day feeling as light as a feather.

I won anyway.

That’s enough.

Eunha thought positively.

“Oh, by the way, Eunha. I brought new change, so put it under the counter.”

Click~.

Eunbangul took out a wad of coins wrapped in paper from her apron pocket and handed it to Eunha.

It is a coin used as change, which is not often used these days when most people pay by card.

Eunha, who was handed a wad of coins, secretly looked behind the girl.

Inside the cafe kitchen… You can see Na-ri Kang, a former debt collector, instantly removing whipped cream from a mug using the [Ingredient Replacement] skill.

This time, she successfully started a ‘potion trade’ with General Manager Ko Young-in, and she seemed to keep thinking about the large amount of money in her miserable bank account, and she smiled brightly with a dreamy face while drinking coffee.

Of course, part of the lump sum that came into the bank account will be sent to Eunha as ‘material costs’… but he seemed happy, saying that it felt like he was working with Eunha.

“Mmm hmm~.”

Nari Kang finished washing the dishes in an instant using her skills.

Eunha, who was watching her [Ingredient Replacement] skill, which had more uses than expected, took the wad of coins handed to her by Baeulgi and opened the drawer without thinking about it.

Grumbling…

Drawer under the counter.

The first thing you see is two gold nuggets sparkling in the white light of the electric light.

A heavy gold bar placed as if it were a given in the change storage drawer catches Eunha’s attention.

“… … Bell, why is this in the cafe?”

“Yes?… Oh, that? It’s for emergency use.”

The surface of the gold bar was smooth.

Two simple gold nuggets with no serial number or manufacturer written on them.

Is it okay to leave it carelessly in a cafe where customers come and go?

Although Eunha was worried about Eunbangul’s sense of money, she neatly packed coins to be used as change into a drawer.

‘These gold bars… they’re really the same shape and size.’

Where does that rabbit get his money from, so why does he keep this precious gold bar in the drawer of the cafe?

A few doubts pass through my mind and then disappear.

Dangling~♪

Just then, the cafe door opened, and a female student wearing an academy uniform came in.

A regular customer who often visits the cafe.

The female student bows her head to Eunha, who is guarding the checkout counter, and lets out a bright smile.

“Hello, Cafe Latte! The weather is hot today! I’ll drink a mango smoothie and go!”

As the weather gets warmer, cool drinks and smoothies are selling well.

Eunha quietly closed the drawer and started paying with familiar movements.

Click~.

The way the galaxy works,

Today too, I smile happily while taking photos on camera.

This is a morning filled with the little happiness of the rabbit girl Eunbangul.

… … .

… … .

August 4th.

One day until the holiday.

Until the exploration of the galaxy’s second [Rift Field],

One day ahead.

“What should I bring this time…”

The peaceful time passed quickly.

At 7 p.m., Eunha, who returned home from the cafe, looked down at the black suitcase spread out in the living room and blinked her sleepy eyes.

A heavy titanium bat stands next to her so that she can immediately respond to noise from upstairs.

Eunha, who was tapping the living room table, puts the [Black Book], her lifeline, into her suitcase first and gets into trouble.

The concern is, of course, what to bring to the [Crack Field].

Last time, [Cheorwon Gyeoljang] was noisy in many ways, so I hope it will be a proper exploration this time.

‘Take the [Black Book] and the flute… Let’s leave out ordinary items since they can be contaminated by the mana of the [Crack Field]. Mr. Ban Harin said he would prepare the clothes on his own… Should I also bring a jigsaw?’

Something you can take to the [Crack Field].

Things you shouldn’t take,

What you have to take…

Check each and every item you own.

Still, he turns his head to the side and smiles languidly at the flower pot placed in the corner of the living room.

Weeds collected at [Cheorwon Gyeokjang] last month.

It’s already been a few weeks since I picked up any plants that looked good and asked Ban Harin if they were medicinal herbs or not.

As time has passed since then, most of the weeds brought from the [crack field] have withered.

What is currently planted in a flower pot are the weeds that were pulled out with cute hands by ‘Fly’, who was out looking around with other people at [Cheorwon Gyeokjangjang].

An unknown weed with distinctive leaves that have been eaten by insects.

Still, I bought a flower pot and planted it as a souvenir, but I was so busy with other things that I almost forgot about it.

Sagagakㅡ.

To be honest, I felt like ‘there was something like this…’

After a brief reminiscence, Eunha chased away the drowsiness that came over her and gathered the things she wanted to take to the [Crack Ground].

[Black Book], a flute made of bone, rope and flint that can also be used in [Crack Field].

After taking care of everything, Eunha took the jigsaw out of the bedroom and put it right next to the [black book] just in case.

(Eunha, please take only the necessary items this time. I will prepare the remaining items for you.)

(I can do it myself.)

(I didn’t ask.)

Aside from this, there is plenty of equipment to explore the [Rift Field], but Banharin said he would get it himself, so I decided to leave it alone.

Eunha smiled complicatedly as she stuffed a titanium bat into the side pocket of her suitcase.

… … .

(The [Rift Field] we are heading to this time is the [Daemari Rift Field] located near Daemari, west of Cheorwon, which we previously visited.)

(A bald head crack?)

(I won’t respond to bullshit.)

The place where Eunha is headed this time is not far from [Cheorwon Rift Field].

[Daemari Crack Field], one of the crack fields managed by [Changcheon Sword House].

(It is close to the border, and most of the terrain is mountainous, so you need to be careful when searching. For reference, there are many granary areas in the northeast, but now there are monsters, not humans…)

Information that is difficult to understand even when explained in words flows like a stream.

Eunha thought over the story she had heard from Ban Harin and tapped the cover of the [Black Book] she had put in her suitcase.

… … .

There are a total of 4 people exploring the [Crack Field] this time.

Euncheongu’s soft fist, Eunha,

D-class hunter.

Association member and cafe regular, Ban Harin.

Self-proclaimed C-class hunter.

Jeong So-ra, guild scout of [Changcheon Swordsman].

B-class hunter.

And, there is one stone-headed D-class hunter in charge of Jeong So-ra.

… … Who on earth is that D-class hunter that bothers Hunter Jeong So-ra by calling him a stone-headed man?

However, even with such questions, Ban Harin brought information without hesitation.

(She is the only daughter of the [Euncheon Swordsman] guild leader. She is currently attending the third year of [Euncheon Academy] and appears to have become a D-class hunter last month.)

The only daughter of the guild leader of a large guild [Changcheon Swordsman].

Even though I was hanging out with some pretty amazing people, surprisingly, I wasn’t very nervous.

Is it thanks to the youngest daughter of the [Cheongryong family] who makes coffee like a squid in the cafe kitchen?

(He is an elite who proudly took first place in practical skills among all test takers in the D-level promotion test this July.)

( Oh oh… )

(At the same time, I think I narrowly passed the written test by just one question.)

( oh…? )

Ban Harin said that although he has good skills, he has problems with his speech and actions, so his interpersonal relationships are not that smooth.

There is a problem with his words and actions…is he being too boastful?

He soon realized that she was the child of the guild leader of a large guild and nodded in understanding.

Okay. Rather good.

It means that you are confident in your abilities.

Even if you are showing off too much, you can just laugh it off.

Eunha packed the necessary items into the black suitcase one by one and closed the suitcase lid.

[Black book], flute, jigsaw…

If you have these, you won’t get beaten to death anywhere.

‘I’m already looking forward to tomorrow… I hope nothing bad happens.’

Prison…

Even though Eunha returned her suitcase to the shoe cabinet, she returned to the living room.

She sat down on the soft sofa, imagining her future exploration of the [Crack Field].

The sleep I lacked over the past few days due to making friends with the person upstairs is finally starting to come to fruition.

The feeling of falling into a bottomless swamp of sand.

Sagagak… The sound of insects scratching the eardrums.

Drurrruk

The veranda window opens and the sound of ‘something’ entering the living room.

At that moment, the bug’s footsteps move away as if it is regretful.

『… … .』

Like that, Eunha closed her eyes helplessly,

I surrendered myself to the approaching drowsiness.

… … .

Tomorrow is a holiday.

The second [crack field] in my life.

please,

This time, without any strange attacks,

Hope you have a peaceful day…

… … .

… … .

“I will take care of everything, young lady, so don’t ever open your mouth. Got it?”

Meanwhile, at that time.

Hunter Jeong So-ra, the guild scout of [Changcheon Swordsman],

He was talking to someone with a face full of worry in preparation for tomorrow’s [Crack Field] exploration.

An office with a fairly frugal interior for a large guild.

The voice, closer to a request than a command, sinks weakly to the office floor.

“… … Hmm.”

And, a woman sitting proudly in the chair across from Jeong So-ra.

She, with her black hair as beautiful as obsidian tied in a ponytail, straightens the front of her jet-black uniform and clears her throat.

The woman taps the long sword leaning against her shoulder and looks at Jeong So-ra.

It seems like he doesn’t like it in many ways.

Jeong So-ra, who noticed her sullen expression, grabbed the back of her neck, which was getting stiff, and tilted her head to the left and right.

‘Ha… This is my long-awaited opportunity to become friends with Eunha. Should I have just gone alone?’

Eunha is Jung So-ra’s biggest interest recently.

The long-awaited [Rift Field] exploration with her is tomorrow.

For the sake of the future relationship between [Changcheon Swordsman] and Eunha, we must give her the best experience without making any mistakes.

‘I was planning on taking you with Eunha so that I could build a connection with her… Is that okay? really?’

Jeong So-ra, who was quietly looking down at the ponytailed woman, chewed her fingernails as if she were anxious.

I don’t know.

it will work out somehow.

“Understand? The lady is prettiest when her mouth is closed.”

“… … .”

“So, let’s just show our pretty side to Eunha?”

Please, I hope this stone head will act like a human.

Jeong So-ra tried to ignore her anxious feelings and adjusted the straight sword at her waist.

“… … Heh, you don’t have to worry about it. I will personally check tomorrow.”

widely…!

Jeong So-ra felt dizzy and touched her forehead.
