[Item: Purifying Tree (★★☆☆☆)

Type: Tree
It is a good tree to purify the unclean. It has a delicate floral scent.
Status: Young
Time Remaining until the fruit ripens: 6 Months]

6 months?

What, six months?

6 months is by no means a long time for a normal tree to bear fruit. But so far, Yggdrasil’s fruits and Dungeon Sugarcane have grown in just one day,  so why is this the only thing that takes six months!

The quest is just a quest, but at this rate, I can’t give the customer a new menu. Is there any way…..

Tiling!

[New entry has been updated in Ether-Wiki.]

At that moment, a system notification sounded quickly. They give me a hint after a long time, so let’s just obediently accept it.

When I accessed Ether-Wiki and checked the ‘Latest Update‘ column, I saw one new item that wasn’t there before.

《How to Promote the Growth of Crops》
You want to make your crops grow faster. You are a K-gamer who is not satisfied if you do not progress quickly.  You need to skip all the letters in order to be satisfied.

[Continue Reading]

Huh, is it jus me or is there really a grudge that can be felt in the encyclopedia’s explanation?

Anyway, I calmly clicked [Continue Reading].

Hello~ This is Ether-Wiki.
Today I bring you information on how to promote the growth of crops.
We will deliver the necessary information to The Eligible, so please don’t forget to read it until the end.

Of course, it takes time to bear fruit!
Did you know that?

But you want to finish the quest as soon as possible, right?
That’s why, today!

Make special fertilizer for The Eligible who wants to grow crops quickly…….
(ellipsis)

Today, we learned how to make a special fertilizer.
If it was helpful, please access the Ether-Wiki. ^^

What kind of viral blogging…..

As if it had been copied from somewhere, there was only one line of information that I wanted in a feast of long and insincere texts.

That’s a relief. I can prepare it right away.

By the way, this Ether-Wiki seems to update information according to my actions. The notification pops up every time I do something.

It seems that such an explanation came out when I first logged in….

Can’tI figure out how to save the Blue Celaeno Flower through this wiki?

I remembered the image of Choi Cedric, whom I met at the farm yesterday.

As soon as I appeared, he pretended to be fine, but the expression on his face looked depressed because of the flower that was about to wither and die.

It has nothing to do with me. It’s irrelevant, but….

It bothers me that his family is sick.

If the flow goes as it has been, the system might tell me. Well, let’s do what I can first.

I left the space and took out a paper box that was stuck in the warehouse. In the meantime, a lot of the contents gathered, so the box was quite heavy.

“Kwon Ri, what are you going to do about that?”

Choi Yichan arrived just in time to move the box inside.

“Huh? Ah, I’m going to use it as fertilizer.”

“That?”

The ingredient of the fertilizer told by Ether-Wiki was the coffee grounds left over after brewing coffee. The garbage bag fell off and I was collecting it without throwing it away, and it turned out well.

“Give it to me. I’ll move it.”

Choi Yichan picked up the box and asked where to go.

However, we soon ran into a problem. The blue entrance to the space on the wall was invisible to Choi Yichan.

“Waeooong (Of course, do you think this is a place where anyone can come in)!”

“….Is that so?”

Naturally, I thought anyone could come in.

“Kiyaoong (Me, the entry to this space is only allowed to those who have been approved by the agent who runs the system)!”

“Then approve it.”

“Meoooong (That … it’s not that easy)…..”

I knew it. That’s right.

“Waeooong (Don’t look at me with eyes that say, ‘It’s useless, but I’ve done well so let’s just accept it because it’s pitiful‘)!”

“Ah, I got caught.”

“Kyagyakyaeong!”

So, I told Choi Yichan to wait and tried to lift the box.

“I’m sorry. I’m not very helpful.”

“A, that’s nonsense. You’ve already helped me so much.”

I patted his shoulder to tell him not to mind because he was helpful enough already, but Choi Yichan looked disheartened.

“At best … I thought I would be of more help to you.”

The words were swallowed in a sigh.

“What’s the matter?”

Choi Yichan shook his head sideways. His frizzy hair, reminiscent of a puppy, shook.

“I will wait here. Go.”

There doesn’t seem to be any color in the smiling face….

I told him to cheer up because it was okay again and went into the space.

Coffee grounds were gently sprinkled around the planted sapling. The soft light from the soil was absorbed by the sapling and the status window was updated.

[Item: Purifying Tree (★★☆☆☆)
Type: Tree
It is a good tree to purify the unclean. It has a delicate floral scent.
Status: Growing
Time Remaining until the fruit ripens: 1 Day]

Done. This is it.

The next day, safely, the lemon … Ah, no, I should call it the fruit of Purifying Tree.

It has a yellow color, a size that fits in one hand, a round shape, and a sweet scent. No matter how I look at it, it looks exactly like a lemon. Let’s call it fake lemon.

The tree grew quite large overnight, and when I picked all the ripe fake lemons, it was a considerable amount. Fake lemons piled up like a mountain in a large bowl. The inside of the store was filled with a sweet and sour scent.

I declared in a solemn voice, with a fake lemon in one hand and baking soda in the other.

“So, are you all ready?”

“Yeah, I am.”

“Nyaaa (Of course)!”

“Kkyuuu!”

A temporary part-timer (characteristic: S-class hunter) and the two others answered energetically.

I decide to make Lemon Chung with all the picked fake lemons.

If I leave it, it’ll only expire.

I need lemon syrup to make lemonade anyway, so it’s good to make a lot and drink it over and over again.

So today, we are going to deal with this mountain of fake lemons together.

It is cumbersome because of the large amount, but it is not difficult to make lemon chung. The first thing to do is to clean the fake lemon.

“See, this is how you do it.”

I soaked the fake lemon in water with baking soda and washed it with my hands. After watching me, Choi Yichan also dipped the fake lemon in water.

“Eung, like this….”

Squelch.

The fake lemon was crushed in Choi Yichan’s palm because he put too much strength.

“Ahhhhhh!”

As a result, the juice of the fake lemon flew into Choi Yichan’s eyes accurately.

“Huk, Yichan-ah, are you okay?”

“Ugh, it stings, heugh.”

“Hurry, wash it with water. Hurry.”

Thanks to his strong S-class body, he got better soon, but….

“Come on, let’s do it again. Just relax your hands and wash them gently. Gently.”

“Eung, gently….”

Squelch.

“Aaaaaah!”

………………………..

The same thing happened over and over again, and only after both eyes became bright red did Choi Yichan give up washing the lemon.

It seems that the strength is not properly controlled yet. Life isn’t easy even for an S-class.

“Haha … I’m sorry.”

With a gloomy expression, he hung down his head.

I quickly pushed his back, fearing that he might become as depressed as yesterday.

“It’s okay, you can help me with something else. Just go over there and rest, okay?”

After leaving Choi Yichan, who retires like that, the remaining labor force is….

“Waeoong, Waeoong (It smells good)!”

A cat is playing while rolling a fake lemon with its front paw.

“Kyuuuu!”

A slime that spreads its body like a membrane, swallows the fake lemon, and then spits out only the seeds.

Let’s just do it by myself…….

Now it is just one F-class cafe owner with one power and two pets.

It’s weird. I decided to live a life of working less and resting more, specifically, working two days a week and taking five days off.

Why am I washing a large amount of fake lemons after picking them up in the morning?

I felt more and more drawn into this system and quests.

‘Maybe I’m the problem….?’

After washing the fake lemon thoroughly in water mixed with baking soda, I rinsed it once with water, and the cleaning process was finished.

If it’s a bought lemon, I’ll need to wash it more, but since this is a freshly picked fruit, this should suffice.

Next, it was time to cut the fake lemon into slices. After wiping off the water, cut the top of the fake lemon and discard it, then cut it into 0.3 cm thick slices.

Choi Yichan, who was aiming for an opportunity to intervene, promptly offered to help. But…..

Puck!

He had to give up because the fake lemon was minced instead of sliced.

What, isn’t it okay because that means you can cut monsters that aren’t fake lemons well?

“I’m sorry, again…..”

“It’s okay. Can you play with Mieum and Lime for a bit?”

BGM is heard behind my back as I sliced the fake lemon.

Tadadadak!

“Unyaaaaa!”

“Kyuuu! Kyuuu!”

“Ahaha, you guys, one at a time.”

Through the window in front of me, I can see the huge stone wall of the Great Dungeon Abyss, and there’s a lively cry behind me. There’s also a tak, tak, tak sound as the lemon was cut in cutting board.

It’s so peaceful…….

Ah, just to avoid misunderstanding, I’m not saying that I hate peace.

A life of eating well, resting well, playing well, and cutting fake lemons into thin slices. It is truly a life suitable for a regressor. This F-class regressor wants to rest.

Remove the seeds from the sliced ​​fake lemon and place it in a large bowl. Then, pour sugar equal to the weight of the fake lemon and mix well. It took quite a while to finish it up to here because of the large amount.

While waiting for the sugar to melt for a while, I got a little hungry.

Well, let me try one.

I picked up a slice of fake lemon mixed with sugar and took it to my mouth.

“……!”

The first thing I tasted was a thrilling sour taste. Then, the sweetness that neutralizes the sourness filled the mouth, and the rich citrus scent cleared my head.

It is delicious to eat as it is, but it will taste even better if it is aged.

After boiling it in hot water, wiping the sterilized jar well, and then filling it with sugar-pickled fake lemon, the making of lemon chung completed.

I looked at the lemon chung jar neatly placed on the shelf. Just looking at the golden shining jar in the midday light gave me peace of mind.

Well, it’s peaceful. Really.

***

I was alone in the store that evening when I promised the regular customer a taste of the new menu.

It’s because Choi Yichan, who was here with me until now, has returned.

“Are you going now? Where are you going?”
“Hahahaha! No, it’s okay! I have a place to sleep!”
“What? Aren’t you still looking for a house? Where are you living now?”
“The earth, the wind is with me! Don’t worry.”
“Wait, don’t say anything weird. Where do you really spend your time? Yichan-ah?”
“I’m going, see you tomorrow!”

But he left only a cheerful smile behind.

Is he really okay? He’s a little strange these days….

My friend’s Hunter Grade went up and he suddenly became weird, what should I do?

I’ll question him in more detail tomorrow, anyway.

“Welcome.”

“That thing, please give me what we talked about before.”

The customer in the fishing vest showed up on time. Without saying anything else, he sat down and asked for the drink.

Did you expect it that much? Then, I have to live up to your expectations.

Translator’s Corner:

Lemon Chung: Chung means ‘preserved with sugar in a jar‘. Taken from (as usual) Wikipedia, Chung/Cheong (청; 淸) is a name for various sweetened foods in the form of syrups, marmalades, and fruit preserves. In Korean cuisine, cheong is used as a tea base, as a honey-or-sugar-substitute in cooking, as a condiment, and also as an alternative medicine to treat the common cold and other minor illnesses. Originally, the word cheong (청; 淸) was used to refer to honey in Korean royal court cuisine.

oh, and my WiFi got fixed, but apparently I’m unlucky to get a room where the signal is poor LOL
