Hi welcome to HCM....
I can understand your concern....
Here your liver enzymes and HBV DNA are within normal range ...so don't worry for that ....
You are carrier for HBSag ....
If your HBV DNA high(at least greater than 2000 IU/ml) and if liver enzymes elevated than you might be in active stage for which antiviral medication given....
But here you don't have to worry ....
Regular follow up needed ....
Maintain healthy dietary habit and avoid alcohol.....
Hope your concern solved ...
Take care
