Chapter 5: Exploring the Hotel (3)

[User: Han Kain (Wisdom)

Date: Day 2

Current Location: Floor 1, Room 105 (Room of Rest)

Sages Advice: 3]

I went to sleep half in doubt but fortunately, the number of Sages Advice went back up to 3. It seemed to be filled back up after going to sleep as Seungyub said.

When exactly was the reset time? I decided to check that later if I had to pull an all-nighter one day.

I cleaned myself, changed clothes and got prepared in time for the meal, as people started to appear when it was time. While greeting those people who I was now fairly accustomed to, we arrived at the dining room and heard another piece of good news.

I figured out what my blessing was last night. Seriously. Hah! Its quite ridiculous.

Wow! Unni, what is it? Do you have some superpower as well now?

Eunsol-noona shook her head in response to Songees words, and suddenly took out her phone.

After arriving at the hotel, we all left our phones elsewhere because they refused to function properly. However, Eunsol-noona took out her smartphone as if there was something to show us and fidgeted with the screen before pointing at a strange application.

HP Market

HP? Is this perhaps Hotel Pioneer?

Probably. Just to make sure, no-one else has something like this right?

We all belatedly went back to have a look at our phones but as expected, there were no changes to everyone elses phones. It was only Eunsol-noonas phone that now contained a strange application.

What does it do?

It was too late last night so I didnt go into detail, but I did have a look. Well, its similar to Amazon. Its like a marketplace that sells a bunch of stuff. The funny thing is that there is no cost.

Eh? Then is everything for free?

There is no price but there is a buy limit. Whatever it is, you can only buy 3 in total per week. And the delivery is done immediately.

Immediately? The delivery speed was mysteriously fast in Korea, so I was thinking of staying in Korea considering how comfortable it was but even Amazon wouldnt be able to send something immediately, commented Elena.

Hahaha. Boys will love it if you stay in Korea, Elena! Well, this hotel is not a normal place after all. Anyway, there was a purchase limit for everything so I didnt buy anything yet. We probably should save it until we really need something.

Hmm. Firstly I think we definitely need to buy a weapon. Do they have a gun or something? Even if there isnt, anything else is probably going to be better than me carrying around a pole.

I did think the same thing as Jinchul-ssi yesterday. But the things being sold on this marketplace are actually very generic. You can really think of it as Amazon. They dont sell guns or longswords on Amazon, do they? But there are a lot of things you can use instead. What I immediately thought of was a baseball bat, a knife, an expandable baton and a tonfa.

That would be great enough already. To be honest, yesterday I was exaggerating a bit, and a pole is certainly quite difficult to carry around. A baseball bat isnt that bad but a tonfa is actually quite decent as long as you can use it probably. Umm.. Im not trying to brag or anything, but I did do some martial arts outside. I learned tonfa for like 2 weeks so I think that sounds okay. What does everyone else think?

There was no-one who disagreed with Jinchul-hyungs opinion. Eunsol-noona tapped the screen a few times as a clear Ding-! suddenly echoed from outside.

This It seems its already here.Nnêw n0vel chapters are published on n0v/e/(lb)i(n.)co/m

Room 105 (Room of Rest)

Room 106 (???)

Room 107 (???)

Sages Advice: 3]

Umm I got another notification. It says Floor Information, and underneath it goes from Room 101 to Room 107, and all the rooms have ??? written next to them except for Room 105, which says Room of Rest. My understanding is that we should go to other rooms apart from Room 105.

Those are the rooms with monsters and treasures is that how it is?

I guess I will have to use the tonfa very soon

Following the mutters of Eunsol-noona and Jinchul-hyung was Elena.

Hmm. Shouldnt we also have some weapons for ourselves at least? Of course, its a bit embarrassing to say this in front of Jinchul-ssi, but I also trained my body a little while preparing to become an actor.

Haha, there is nothing embarrassing there. Of course I will try my best with the power Im given, but that doesnt mean we shouldnt prepare everyone else. Look, here we also have a handsome young man with a good build. Hey Kain, shouldnt you get something for yourself? Do you know how to use something like a tonfa?

I replied to him.

Uhh, sorry but I didnt learn any martial arts but I do think my stamina is okay. Should I get something as well?

Hmm. You look quite sporty yourself but it is a shame you havent learned martial arts before. Well, considering your build, it would probably be fine for you to just swing something heavy. A tonfa wont be that good if you dont know how to use it, and I think a bat would be a better choice for you.

Wait, Eunsol-noona interjected. Did you forget what I said just then? There is a purchase limit of 3 per week, so dont order anything else and lets wait a little.

Aht, then do we have to go empty-handed? Thats a bit worrying though

Uhm there is something I saw last time, Songee started off.

While unconsciously thinking to myself that Songee had the tendency to shrink a little whenever she was speaking, I gazed at her.

There are strange props that you would see in movies along the corridor, right? There was also a dagger there.

A dagger.

Looking back, I also did grab a silver candlestick on the first day to swing around as a weapon.

I quickly got up and jogged in the direction Songee pointed at. As she said, there was an ornamented dagger in one of the walls of the tremendously long corridor which I missed last time.

It looked extremely fancy. Although I didnt have a good eye for something like this, it would probably start at around 10,000 dollars if I was to sell this somewhere else. After picking it up, I returned to the dining table.

Isnt this more of an art piece than a practical dagger? Theres even a gem on the handle. The durability will be quite bad for something like this because its not made for actual use. But it would still be better than bare hands though. Its a shame there is only one of them.

There was only one dagger. I felt bad using this for myself so I asked for their opinions.

This should I really use this? This is the only thing close to a weapon so I feel bad.

I think you should. Maybe Elena can, because she trained a bit, but I dont think Songee, Seungyub and I will be able to fight properly with this. A stronger person should use it especially because we dont have many weapons. Do we all agree?

No-one disagreed with Eunsol-noonas words and thus, I became one of the two people alongside Jinchul-hyung that had a weapon. Soon after finishing our meal and preparing ourselves, we headed to Room 101.
