Welcome to Dungeon Hotel Chapter 126

122. Be a fisherman who catches people!

 

Please stop being cute with each other.

 

“Please stop. There are other guests, and if you do this, we have no choice but to impose sanctions.”

 

“But I have no intention of fighting with that girl?”

 

“I also have no intention of fighting Hunter Moon Heeyoung. I only intend to fight.” 

 

…These people. 

 

After the situation was resolved, I met with each of them separately and made a sincere request.

 

“Hunter Bang Hansoo. We are sorry, but we would appreciate it if you would only keep conversations that make other guests uncomfortable within the room.” 

 

“Yes? Ah… yes. Well. But I have vivid memories of Hunter Moon Heeyoung. Everyone started crying and making an uproar when Hunter Moon Heeyoung said she was leaving for America at that time. Isn’t she ruining Korea?” 

 

Bang Hansoo trembled with an expression like someone recalling a traumatic memory.

 

A 150% unfavorable number value flashed above Bang Hansoo’s head. 

 

“How can an S-Class Hunter abandon her people and go to the United States?” 

 

Well. Because I was just an elementary school student 15 years ago and my Dad was an S-Class hunter, I never really felt the fear that the Korean Peninsula was going to be destroyed. 

 

I just desperately wanted Dad to come back. 

 

But for some citizens, seeing even an S-Class hunter leave the country as if they were running away from a disaster that was about to hit the Republic of Korea could have been traumatic.

 

In other words, it felt like he was staying in the same hotel as an enemy general who had half destroyed the country. 

 

The satisfaction level of ‘Guest Room 401’ decreases.

 

Ah, this is really troublesome.

 

Who can guarantee that a penalty like Min Kangjin’s depression mold won’t be given again when satisfaction drops like this?

 

Looking at the numbers above Bang Hansoo’s head, I knew I needed to get this problem solved quickly.

 

Min Kangjin, who was next to him, tilted his head when he heard my words.

 

“Well, I don’t really feel sorry for that hunter. But anyway, he’s a person who did something that deserves criticism, right? I can’t believe such a traitor exists. I just keep looking at her because I wonder what kind of person she is.” 

 

“Kangjin-ah.”

 

“Yes?”

 

When I called his name, Min Kangjin answered with a bright face like Geumdong, wagging his tail. 

 

“When you came to our hotel, you were worried that someone would take your picture or bother you, right?”

 

“…Yes?” 

 

“Isn’t it difficult to suffer from people’s harsh gazes that much?”

 

Min Kangjin seemed to understand what I was saying. He slowly stuck out his lips and mumbled as his face turned red.

 

“Still… Me and that lady are a bit…” 

 

“It’s no different. Unless they have committed a crime, every guest should have the right to feel safe and restful in our hotels.” 

 

Min Kangjin pouted his lips a few more times before finally answering.

 

“…Yes.”

 

He listens really well.

 

I was unconsciously trying to pat Min Kangjin on the shoulder, but my hand stopped.

 

Min Kangjin asked.

 

“…Why do you stop?”

 

“Huh? Ah, that’s…” 

 

When I thought about it, I had something to say to Min Kangjin.

 

I said, biting my lip. 

 

“I decided to date him. So refrain from sending me a personal DM.”

 

“Y, yes…?! Could it be that annoying and pitiful punk?!” 

 

What do you mean by punk? 

 

For some reason, I felt embarrassed and quickly got up from my seat.

 

After that, I made coffee for Shim Jiyoon, who came up after washing up and ordering coffee, and delivered it to room 402.

 

‘Absolute Mind and Body Stability’ Ice Late (E) 

 

—Peace comes to mind and body.

 

—Duration: 48:00:00

 

—Vitality increases by 120%.

 

It was the coffee that Shim Jiyoon needed most now. 

 

As soon as I opened the door, Shim Jiyoon spoke as if she knew why I brought coffee. 

 

“Don’t worry. I just attract her attention for no reason.”

 

“Yes? What do you mean…”

 

“That woman. She’s looking over the boss’s hotel. I think the fact that this hotel has passageways connecting to various dungeons is what makes it so attractive. All I do is keep an eye on her so she doesn’t have time to mess with the boss by messing with her.”

 

When ‘Guest Room 403’ think of it, the satisfaction level of ‘Guest Room 402’ decreases. 

 

The effect of ‘Absolute Mind and Body Stability’ Ice Latte (E) is debuffed.

 

The duration of peace of mind and body decreases.

 

—Duration 36:00:00

 

…Uhm…

 

Aside from that, I think she’s very sincere. 

 

In the first place, I didn’t think that Aunt Heeyoung would have such a plan.

 

But she’s coveting this hotel because there’s a passage that connects to the dungeon…

 

‘As expected, Aunt Heeyoung’s goal is to discover the door to another world.’

 

And maybe it’s to find Dad. 

 

“Thank you for your concern, but when I invited Hunter Moon Heeyoung, I also had plans. I would appreciate it if you could keep an eye on her for a while. Hunter Shim Jiyoon.” 

 

“But…”

 

“Please.”

 

I said it emphatically.

 

Shim Jiyoon reluctantly nodded her head. Even so, it seemed clear that she wouldn’t let go of her guard.

 

And finally… Before I knew it, I walked up to the woman sitting in the cafe, dressed in a loose-fitting shirt and three-quarter-length pants. 

 

“You seem to be in trouble because of me? There are many complaints from other guests.” 

 

“I guess. Can you please… act a little more normally?” 

 

“If it’s normal…What is that like?”

 

Aunt Heeyoung narrowed her eyes.

 

As I hesitated to answer, she smiled and drank her iced tea.

 

“Ah. Is that something like that? When people gossip about me, I run away with a hurt look on my face. I can’t even make eye contact in front of people I don’t like. And… always cover my face like a renegade?”

 

“…What I’m saying is…”

 

“Ah. Or is it that I’m being hypocritical and putting on an excessively kind and nice mask? I guess that’s the normal behavior of people who get criticized.”

 

It’s normal behavior to not like someone who pours wine on you on purpose rather than thinking it was cute. 

 

It’s hard because I can’t say this.

 

“But I’m not an ordinary person, Junghyo-ya. And… Here’s something I’ve felt in my life… People believe what they want to believe, no matter how others act.”

 

While looking at Aunt Heeyoung, who had a sly snake-like smile on her face, I wanted to quickly use the “Oath of Truth” in the banquet hall or give her whiskey to get her to tell the truth.

 

Why are you acting like someone who wants to be hated?

 

Why are you looking for Dad? 

 

There were so many things I wanted to ask.

 

‘To do that, I have to somehow get Aunt to drink. Gaining more trust from Aunt…’

 

It was when I was thinking about that.

 

Aunt looked behind me and frowned. 

 

“…That… Does it normally spin around when there are no people?”

 

“Yes?”

 

As I turned around, I saw a revolving door that started to spin.

 

Is it a new guest…?

 

The moment I thought about it, a window appeared in front of my eyes.

 

Hidden Quest ‘Be a Fisherman Who Catches People!’ 

 

—Let’s rescue a guest in danger.

 

—Completion reward: ‘Chessboard of Truth (S)’, 1,000p EXP

 

! Note ! ‘Chessboard of Truth (S)’ allows you to hear the players’ sincerity while playing chess. 

 

….?!

 

What is this? The completion reward is so good.

 

However, there was no time to be swayed by the completion reward right away.

 

The fact that that revolving door is spinning means that there is a guest in danger somewhere in the dungeon.

 

But the fact that the guest can’t enter the revolving door for a long time— 

 

It means a situation where they can’t come in.

 

I briefly explained the situation and took the items.

 

All the items were contained in the goblin pouch, which was more convenient than the bag Aunt Misoon gave me, so it didn’t take long to pack it up. 

 

“I think I should go.”

 

“Wait. That means you don’t know what’s in there.”

 

Aunt Heeyoung looked at me worriedly.

 

‘Are these worries real?’

 

I was confused.

 

“I’ll go with you too.”

 

“No. In the first place, the guest is going to a random dungeon with me…”

 

…it would be impossible.

 

! Note ! Reservation guests can go out to a random dungeon with the hotel owner.

 

…? 

 

What is this?

 

What about this help-like window?

 

No way. Is this really a help?

 

Does this mean that I have to get help from Aunt Heeyoung for this quest?

 

But now I am confused as to whether I can trust Aunt Heeyoung.

 

It was when I was hesitating. Shim Jiyoon said as she came down from the elevator.

 

“I’m going with you too. I can’t just send out the foreign S-Class hunter and the boss.” 

 

Aunt’s face frowned at Shim Jiyoon’s words.

 

‘Guest Room 403’ shows hostility towards ‘Guest Room 402.’

 

“If I’m planning on messing with Junghyo, there’s no way a kid like you coming with me would help, right?” 

 

“Then we can go together. If I take a video, you’re at the dead end.” 

 

Min Kangjin, who was standing in front of the elevator together, said.

 

He asked Lim Sehwan, who was out of the pop-up store, wondering what the situation was.

 

“Did you say that there is a product that transmits and receives video immediately when I take a video inside the dungeon?” 

 

“Yes. There is.” 

 

“Please give me. I’ll pay in one lump sum.”

 

Lim Sehwan’s face brightened. 

 

“Excuse me… It’s dangerous for everyone, so it’s better to stay in the hotel…”

 

I tried to stop them, but it was useless.

 

“If the hotel owner is in danger, isn’t the hotel also unsafe anyway? So, let’s protect the boss!”

 

When Bang Hansoo, who had been sitting still, joined in, I was pushed to the side.

 

1:3.

 

Aunt Heeyoung…

 

“Do whatever you want. In the meantime, don’t forget that time is passing.”

 

That’s how the random raid made up of the hotel owner and the reservation guests started. 

 

Min Kangjin took the camera, and the rest of the hunters took the items. 

 

Is this something that five people need to do together? Including S-Class hunters? 

 

Those doubts disappeared the moment I passed through the revolving door.

 

The place I arrived was an uninhabited island surrounded by sea on four sides.

 

Kiiiek—!

 

‘Albatross (C)’ has appeared above!

 

An uninhabited island with C-class monsters flying overhead like wild geese. 

 

Splash! 

 

And soon something jumped out in the distance with a huge sound, and its identity was as follows. 

 

‘Megalodon (B)’ has appeared in front of you! 

 

There are also B-Class monsters. 

 

‘Megalodon (B)’ has appeared in front of you! 

 

‘Megalodon (B)’ has appeared in front of you! 

 

Even in groups.

 

And “Our guests” in the quest seemed to be three hunters on a big cargo ship that was destroyed in half by a single strike from the megalodon’s fin.

 

The reason I knew that was simply not just because those people were screaming, ‘Save me!’. 

 

This was because there was a ‘!’ sign floating above the heads of those three.

 

Ah… this is why they couldn’t enter the revolving door. 

 

I wrinkled my face as soon as I saw the distant sea.

 

“Uh, is there someone over there? But how do we get there? What methods do S-Class hunters have?” 

 

Bang Hansoo subtly glanced at Aunt Heeyoung. 

 

But Aunt Heeyoung just frowns when she gets close to the beach with the waves.

 

“This isn’t just sea water; it’s seawater with a debuff on it. If you swim all the way there, you won’t be able to use any of your skills, and you’ll be attacked by monsters swarming in the sea.”

 

“What kind of dungeon is this… How did those hunters get in here?”

 

“I guess they were thinking of getting some monster by-products, like clam pearls, from the shallow sea dungeon.” 

 

If only there was a way to get there…

 

While I was thinking about that, a method suddenly occurred to me.

 

There’s no need to swim all the way there.

 

I have an item.
