I Quit My Job and Run a Café - Chapter 39

Episode 39

The petty wariness between Rangi and Baekgu ended in vain with the arrival of the village chief.

Because the swan was literally dragged away.

It was truly impressive to see her being dragged around like a doll by those powerful arms without even being able to resist.

And there’s also the sight of Rangi stretching as if he’s won after seeing that.

‘They’re funny guys.’

I can tell even though I saw the swan today.

That he’s just as good as Langi.

It was a blessing.

That you can live happily in the present without being sad about the past.

By the way, there were a few things that surprised me today.

And the most surprising thing among them was… … .

‘This is the first time I’ve seen Aura in this form.’

It was an aura in the shape of a baby boar.

This special aura was hanging out in the shelter with other auras.

The swan left, but I didn’t follow it and stayed here.

Only the appearance has changed, but it doesn’t seem to be much different from other auras…

Swish.

I reached out and ‘tuned’ it, and it flew towards me.

And the talent that seeped into the palm of my hand was also applied to me.

“The reverse radiating force… … .”

I clenched my fist and put strength into my hand.

I didn’t really feel any strength.

Is it a slightly different talent than I thought?

This is something you can figure out little by little.

There was nothing to worry about.

Swish!

He released the aura of a piglet again and let it go.

Then I thought as I watched it flying towards the other auras.

‘It’s not just people who come.’

Tiger shelter.

The guests of this place, where even the dreams were mysterious, were not only people.

I don’t know if they were souls, spirits, or something else, but it was important that special guests could come.

When I first settled down here, I had no idea that I would experience such strange things… … .

‘Is it because I’ve gotten used to this that I’ve become a weird person?’

It didn’t seem like that at all.

I had a bit of an unusual experience, but that was it.

However, I thought that I should do better and not panic if a similar guest comes again.

“I don’t think I’ll come often though.”

I looked back on what I had gained this time and slowly prepared to close the deal.

* * *

The next day.

These days, the first thing I do when I get to work is water the garden.

Okay~

As I watched the water dripping down the ground, I strangely felt like my thirst was being quenched.

Like fresh crops that are moist and have a deeper blue color.

I checked while watering it like that.

What kind of crops grew today?

How much has it grown?

“hmm.”

But now that I look at the garden, one concern has arisen.

It was a garden that had become overgrown.

It wasn’t that the weeds were growing.

Strangely enough, after the auras started flying around, weeds stopped growing in the garden.

Instead, thanks to that, the crops grew very well.

In the past, it grew quickly thanks to the aura of the guests… … but now it just grew differently every day.

So the garden got smaller.

especially.

“Ssuksuk. Are you okay?”

It looks like it would be narrower for a tree like Ssuksuk.

Well, I felt a little sorry that I couldn’t manage it properly.

Now, this guy has grown so much that he is so thick that I have to hold him with both hands.

If that doesn’t work, I think I should move this one too…

Flutter~ Flutter~

The leaves of the mugwort swayed slightly as if they were okay.

Are you still okay? That’s good.

But when will this guy’s identity be revealed?

‘Well, I guess you’ll find out when you see it this big.’

There was no rush.

Now it would be better to worry about whether I should grow the vegetable garden a bit more.

Of course, this was also a problem that could not be decided right away.

If it were just an ordinary garden, I wouldn’t know. Can I expand this place as I please?

It was difficult to act rashly.

It wouldn’t be easy to expand the size of even an ordinary field.

‘I’ll have to ask the village chief about the field later. I’m not sure if it applies here, but it can’t hurt to know.’

Just as you need to know the recipe to make drinks and desserts in order to make them effective, if you know how to garden well and cultivate it, it will turn out well in some way.

anyway!

Since I can’t expand my garden right away, for now… …I decided to harvest the fully grown crops first.

I looked for crops to harvest among the ones in the garden that had become thicker due to the water.

The first thing that caught my eye was…

“Huh? All the herbs have grown now.”

It was a herb.

Most types of herbs have similar effects to mint.

Mental and physical stability or stress relief.

However, each herb has a different scent and taste.

First, we decided to harvest as much as we needed.

It would be good to drink it with tea.

“Hmm~ It smells good.”

Rosemary, chamomile, etc.

The fragrance that spread every time there was a harvest was really nice.

Growing crops was rewarding, but so was harvesting them.

Should I say that it’s similar to giving guests a break and receiving something in return?

This alone is healing.

Sarah~

As I was harvesting, the auras that had been playing among themselves gathered around me.

“Are you okay too?”

Sararang~ Love~

Can they smell it too?

I don’t know about that, but I think he liked it anyway.

however…….

Among those auras, the one that stands out the most is the baby boar aura… … Well, it’s a bit uncomfortable to keep calling it baby boar aura.

You have to call on him when you need his talents.

‘Should I give this one a name too?’

I think it would be convenient because it is specific and different from other auras.

“Because it’s brown… …brownie?”

… … Kur?

As soon as I tried to give it a name, I got a response.

And he even seemed to ask if that was really true.

“Your name. Let’s call it Brownie from now on.”

This time, I definitely gave the new boar Aura a name.

Then… … !

Pot!

[brownie]

*talent

─Reverse emission generation

… … Is this okay?

Just like when I gave a name to Ssuk-Ssuk, a text box appeared for Brownie.

It was the first time it had happened to Aura.

It’s not that I didn’t expect it, but I was surprised because it turned out as expected.

‘I guess names are important.’

I thought there would be nothing more surprising, but I never thought something new would come out that would tease my mind.

Instead, I quickly got used to this kind of thing.

Gurr~

The brownie, who had been given that name, suddenly came down to the garden as if he was in a good mood.

“Yeah? You want to help me too?”

Kuru~

A guy who doesn’t really make a sound, but answers as if he did.

Originally, it felt like it was just a slightly different appearance among the auras… … .

When I gave it a name, I felt like it had become more independent than before.

It seems like he understands what I’m saying.

‘It feels similar to SsukSsuk, but is it more active?’

Is it because he acts like that, unlike Ssuk-ssuk, who seems to be unable to converse due to his lack of movement?

Even now, he comes out alone and walks through the garden alone.

Okay then.

Knock! Knock knock knock knock!!

The herbs became fresher every time he passed by.

Is that the effect of the reverse radiating energy talent?

The herbs were literally radiating energy. The herbs were already fresh, but now that they were fresher, they had an incredible fragrance.

‘Will this still be the same even after harvesting?’

So I was going to harvest the herbs that Brownie had made fresh and check them out… … .

at that time!

Aang ang!

“You punk! Wait!”

I could hear the sound of a swan coming from the empty lot and the village chief calling out to the guy.

What’s going on this morning?

* * *

“Chief? What brings you here today?”

“I’m sorry, but can I ask you a favor?”

When I returned to the vacant lot, the village chief came to greet me with a smile.

But why the favor?

“Huh? What?”

“I was wondering if you could look after Baekgu for a bit. I have to go to the hospital, but I don’t have anyone I can leave him with.”

“Hospital? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?”

“No. That’s not it. It’s because of a regular health checkup. But if I have to get an endoscopy under sleep, I think I’ll have to go to the city today and stay overnight.”

“iced coffee.”

Since it was a hospital, I thought maybe you were sick, but that wasn’t the case.

If it’s a regular checkup at the hospital, you’ll probably have to go to the city to get it done properly. Then it won’t be easy to get up early in the morning and go.

“I feel a bit awkward calling myself your substitute, but if you need anything in the future, I’ll definitely help you. If you need help, I can find some help, and if you need any connections, just let me know.”

“Oh, it’s not that hard. It’s okay.”

“Hey. Still, it’s useful. If you have any requests later, please let me know.”

“Yes, I will. Oh! Please give me some tips for farming later.”

“I can do that anytime. Hehe!”

Actually, I didn’t really need anything, but I remembered my narrow garden.

Wouldn’t it be helpful if the village head, who owns a huge field, had the know-how?

When I told him that much, the village chief responded as if it was nothing.

You said to ask for a separate favor.

“Then, take care on your way back.”

“Hehehe. Please take care of it.”

So the village chief left the swan in his care… … .

Hehe!

“You can run around here as much as you want, but you can’t go out. Do you understand?”

He gave a strong order to the remaining swans.

I don’t know if he understood, but he started following me around like a squirrel.

‘Come to think of it, my grandfather also came up here every time he had a health checkup.’

He came and slept at my house and left early the next morning.

But on that day, I had to work all night… … .

ah.

I always worked all night, so it wasn’t just that day.

anyway.

There were many times when I felt sorry, but where will the village chief be staying?

‘Was it a daughter? Or a son? I think so.’

Well, even if they aren’t your children, you might have relatives.

I’m sure you’ll figure it out.

‘Oops!’

I decided to go back and check again since I hadn’t checked everything yet.

* * *

Back in the garden, we harvested some fresh herbs that Brownie had made for us.

And I checked the text window.

[Rosemary]

*effect

─Mental and physical stability (36)

[Arugula]

*effect

─Improved concentration (36)

“Just because it’s fresh doesn’t mean it’s effective.”

It seemed like they made it really fresh.

If it’s a pity, it’s a pity result… … .

It didn’t seem like that was necessarily the case.

Because… … .

“Huh? It’s delicious?”

The taste has definitely improved.

It was natural.

Because it’s fresh and has a strong flavor.

The effect of tuning is related to the growth of garden crops, but this one feels more focused on taste.

‘Maybe then, we can focus on the effects as well as the taste.’

I had a feeling it would work out.

Just in case, I asked Brownie.

“brownie.”

Kuru~

“Is there any way to make this more effective?”

Kur?

But this time I look at it with a feeling of not knowing.

Is that not possible?

Then I can’t do it.

It is also greed to want everything to happen at once.

And I didn’t know what would happen if Brownie grew up or if I grew up.

Because the possibilities here are endless.

“Then I guess I should think about what delicious thing to make with this now.”

The car was a given.

Is there anything else I can use the harvested herbs for?

‘Let’s see. The materials we have now… … .’

There were quite a few ingredients from the garden.

So now instead of making one, you can use them together.

“ah!”

I remembered.

A way to use them together.

first of all…….

‘Should I start by making the dough?’

It started right away.

The method of making the dough was the same as for bread dough. However, this time I only planned to do the first fermentation.

This time, I don’t want it to get too puffy.

But then suddenly this thought occurred to me.

“Brownie. Is this okay?”

If it’s about making it taste good, wouldn’t this be possible?
