  1. You Can’t Fight in the Hotel~

 

“Boss, are you feeling okay?”

 

As soon as I returned to work at the hotel, Lim Sehwan greeted me.

 

He, too, had just taken some time off due to the production process.

 

“I’m fine.”

 

I haven’t had any kind of surgery, but it’s somewhat…embarrassing.

 

I was given quince tea and a cup that Lim Sehwan made in his workshop, even though he was very busy.

 

“Carry it with you from time to time and drink quince tea. It is a cup that never overflows.”

 

When I looked through the facility management window, I couldn’t help but see that it was an amazing cup. 

 

Non-overflowing cup (D)

 

—It never overflows even without a lid.

 

—You can drink it as soon as the lips of the person imprint as the owner touches it.

 

—Perfectly seals the inside from floating dust. 

 

—The temperature of the liquid inside remains the same. 

 

I don’t know what a waste of talent this is, but I was very grateful.

 

Because I often get thirsty while working.

 

“Thank you.”

 

“What do you mean by thank you? I have been happy every day since I started working at this hotel.”

 

“Yes…?” 

 

Why are only workaholics coming into our hotel?

 

While I was thinking about that, Lim Sehwan said,

 

“There are a lot of people who look for the things I make, and it’s nice to learn a lot…I think the best thing is that I learned how fun it is to work.”

 

It’s fun to work.

 

Well, I think I definitely enjoyed working at this hotel.

 

Because I definitely felt the sadness of working rather than the fun of working at my previous job.

 

“I think I have a better work ethic? In the past, I was worried about proving myself, but now that I have more time, I think I can see more clearly the users who use the products I touched.”

 

“Good for you. Still, don’t forget to exercise from time to time. You know, right?”

 

“Yes.” 

 

Ah. Of course, Lim Sehwan wasn’t the only one who worried about me.

 

It turns out that the special neighborhood meeting was held because of a strange rumor…? 

 

I was embarrassed when I received the special neighborhood meeting agenda paper I got from the hair salon owner.

 

Where is our hotel moving to?

 

What is the second branch?

 

Those rumors were put to rest with explanations from the head of the women’s association and the manager, but there were new rumors going around that I might go up to Seoul again because I was exhausted physically and mentally while I was resting for a few days. 

 

I don’t know how such a rumor spread, but I was increasingly burdened by the gifts piling up in the cafe on the first floor, so I strongly explained the rumor to the guests.

 

“I’m not going up to Seoul. Don’t worry.” 

 

“We were also worried about where our Yeongchunjang would go…” 

 

“It hasn’t been long since I came.”

 

“Still! This is our only resting place in Yeongchun-myeon…”

 

As the hair salon owner spoke sadly, the guests behind her all nodded.

 

The younger sister of the salon owner, who works at a beauty salon, gave me a box of caramels and said in a serious voice.

 

“You have to show me the taste of coffee for a long time.”

 

When I received that caramel, I felt a slight tingle in the corner of my heart.

 

The word work ethic… 

 

It’s not a big deal, but I was wondering if this was what they were talking about.

 

At first, I settled here just because of Dad and because real estate prices were cheap, but soon I started to like this place too. 

 

I am honored that people here can see my hotel as an escape from everyday life.

 

“…I will work harder.”

 

I took the order, chewing sweet caramel.

 

And a few days later.

 

As soon as I got to work, I decided to do my day-start meeting

 

I wonder why this is a morning meeting for a business with only 5 people including the boss (and that number includes Lim Sehwan)….

 

“Is it the first morning meeting? It sounds cool! The morning meeting!”

 

Geumdong was excited. 

 

“You’re noisy, Geumdong. You tend to talk too much to guests these days. Talk less. Guests will feel more comfortable in a quiet environment.”

 

Geumdong was being closely watched by Toto.

 

“If you two fight, we will run out of meeting time. Let’s stop and listen to what the boss has to say.”

 

As always, Lim Sehwan was trying to listen to me by bringing out his notebook with a passionate face.

 

“…Excuse me… Let’s just proceed.” 

 

The manager seemed to have decided to ignore the whole situation.

 

I started the meeting as the manager said.

 

“What is the suite reservation status today?” 

 

“Rooms 401 and 402 are fully booked. Actor Min Kangjin decided to use room 401 with his staff, and room 402 was reserved by Hunter Shim Jiyoon.” 

 

Toto, who was in charge of the schedule, replied right away when the question was asked.

 

As soon as the holiday ended, reservations were fully booked.

 

“Is there anything special?”

 

“Room 401 said they wanted to have dinner in the banquet hall, and room 402 asked for a To—Go service. Lots of americano and café lattes.”

 

The manager, who was listening to Toto, added.

 

“Ah. So, I think it would be good if we could order more coffee beans. There weren’t enough coffee beans to use on the first floor.” 

 

Lim Sehwan also said that he had prepared a camera with magical stone that he wanted to sell to Min Kangjin and his group since he had already been informed of the schedule to some extent in advance. 

 

“It’s my first time making a camera, but it was definitely fun.”

 

Hmm. So, in short, we’re busy all day today— 

 

“There will be a special guest today. I am calling on you to tell you in advance because she’s a guest who needs special attention.”

 

“A special guest?”

 

The manager looked up at me anxiously. It seemed to remind her of the goblin days.

 

“It’s not that special of a guest… Today’s guest is S-Class Hunter, Moon Heeyoung. She made a reservation for room 403.” 

 

Invitations were already sent out a few days ago. As soon as she received the invitation, she made a reservation right away.

 

“Ah. She is the one who came last time.”

 

The manager said with relief. But Lim Sehwan frowned. 

 

“Wait. Moon Heeyoung? She’s a traitor who even fled to America! A person like that is coming to this hotel?”

 

Lim Sehwan looked angry.

 

It wasn’t something I hadn’t expected. 

 

In terms of public sentiment, Aunt Heeyoung is stigmatized as a traitor, and Lim Sehwan is Aunt Misoon’s assistant. 

 

And Aunt Misoon hated Aunt Heeyoung very much. 

 

‘For whatever reason, he abandoned us when we needed him the most.’

 

It’s not that I don’t get why she hates her when she hears about Aunt Heeyoung.

 

“And doesn’t that person appear in the news often these days? I heard that C&M is related to the witness of salvation.”

 

Lim Sehwan added.

 

“Isn’t it for no reason that we are letting a dangerous villain into the hotel?”

 

“Isn’t this a too strong expression? Last time she came, she bought food from the merchants’ association and she didn’t seem that bad of a person. Since I was a non-awakened person, I didn’t know much about Hunter Moon Heeyoung…”

 

But Lim Se-hwan shook his head.

 

“That’s because you really don’t know much. And in fact, the person who hates Hunter Moon Heeyoung more than anyone else is the boss. Because of who Hunter Lee Semyung is…!”

 

Even though Lim Sehwan was mad at Aunt Heeyoung and not the manager, his neck was red with anger. But all of a sudden, he looked at me and sat down again while biting his lips.

 

The moment the words Lee Semyeung came out, not only the manager but also the spirits immediately froze.

 

There were faces that said they had never even thought about the relationship between Hunter Moon Heeyoung and Hunter Lee Semyung. 

 

“No… I’m… S, so…” 

 

“Well, it all makes sense.”

 

I calmed the two down and said.

 

It’s also true that Aunt Heeyoung’s actions through C&M seem suspicious.

 

And the reason for trying to find Dad is still a mystery. 

 

Is it a fellowship that purely wants to find Dad, or… is it an ambition to open the door to this world and create a kingdom of evil?

 

Or maybe none of that. 

 

To find out that, I need to meet Aunt Heeyoung even more.

 

Moreover, since I have to go to the Grey Hotel in ten days, I need even more information about the dimensional gap. 

 

On my part, the only place where I can be equal to an S-Class hunter is the hotel. 

 

At the hotel, even S-Class hunters can’t use force, and my skills work well on S-Class hunters as well. 

 

The banquet hall even has an oath of truth function, and if Aunt becomes a guest, I can take a closer look into Aunt’s mind. 

 

So this invitation was inevitably necessary.

 

“There was a reason why I couldn’t refuse this reservation, but it is true that Hunter Moon Heeyoung is a dangerous person.”

 

Lim Sehwan nodded at my words.

 

“So even now, what about refusing…”

 

“…However, since she’s a guest of our hotel, I have summoned you with the hope of providing the best service possible.” 

 

“Yes?”

 

Lim Sehwan got confused and looked at me.

 

After the story about Hunter Lee Semyung came out, other employees who had become unfavorable to Hunter Moon Heeyoung’s visit also had similar faces.

 

“Unless the guests are criminals, we must always provide the best service to our hotel guests. That’s our work ethic.”

 

Although I also have my doubts about Aunt, the moment she comes as our guest, I must not be selfish. 

 

If that happens, self-employed people will go bankrupt in an instant.

 

However, once I got to this point, the employees’ expressions were not very good.

 

I knew it would happen.

 

I added.

 

“…To be more honest, there’s something I really want to hear from Hunter Moon Heeyoung. So I want to increase her satisfaction.”

 

This is the real intention.

 

Everyone’s true feelings are revealed when they relax at a hotel.

 

My words brought life back to the employees’ eyes.

 

“You’re saying you’re trying to catch her off guard.” 

 

“As expected, the boss is scary…”

 

“Then shall we prepare the most delicious drink? The same goes for raw fish.”

 

“I’ll bring out the best bath salts for the sauna!”

 

Everyone is strong.

 

I thought so.

 

Yeah. Until then…

 

I thought it would be enough to provide Aunt Heeyoung with satisfactory service, give her a moderate amount of alcohol at the banquet hall, and hear the truth.

 

I didn’t know that a bigger problem would arise.

 

That was the cold attitude of other guests towards Hunter Moon Heeyoung. 

 

“Oops. “I made a mistake.”

 

“…Normally, you wouldn’t call it a mistake to come and pour wine while walking down a normal street, baby. What if the definition of ‘mistake’ in Korean hasn’t changed in the 15 years I’ve been away from Korea?” 

 

The manager, caught between the terrifying atmosphere between Hunter Moon Heeyoung and Hunter Shim Jiyoon, described the conflict between the two as follows.

 

“It’s a battle between ‘strong spirit’ and ‘strong spirit’…”

 

It was a somewhat amusing tone.

 

Yeah. Maybe I would have had fun too. 

 

This is my first time seeing a battle between such strong hunters.

 

‘You can’t fight in the hotel~’ quest

 

—The hotel guests hate the guest in room 403.

 

—The unfavorability index of guests in room 401 and 402 for a guest in room 403 reaches 100%.

 

—The satisfaction level of rooms 401 and 402 is dropping in real time.

 

—To protect the reputation of the 3-star hotel, reduce the unfavorability index of 3 people to below 15%.

 

—Completion reward: 10,000p experience, 1,000G market gold, employee recruitment ticket

 

Damn it. 

 

I was frustrated as I saw the numbers floating in blue above the heads of Shim Jiyoon, who was standing in the lounge, and Min Kangjin and Bang Hansoo, who were whispering among themselves in the restaurant. 

 

Dislike 100%

 

How on earth did you get so much hate from everyone! How!
