Chapter 38: Party Time! – What exactly happened?

[User: Han Kain (Wisdom)

Date: Day 13

Current Location: Floor 1, Room 105

Sages Advice: 3]

Like always, we all woke up in front of Room 103 and were in the process of going back to Room 105. There were no tears of joy or hugs and everyone just had a blank look on their faces.

What in the world happened?

There was only one person who could answer that question. Everyone else had been playing as animals until we lost our consciousness so there was nothing we could say.

We constantly stole a glance at Songee who was the only one that could explain what happened to us. We noticed that she was somewhat different.

Because of the characteristic of this Hotel, we would return to our original states no matter what horrendous thing happened inside the rooms but there was an undisguisable change in atmosphere. She no longer had the timid and shy look on her face and seemed endlessly fatigued. Besides, there was the clear message that everyone saw through the system window right before we woke up from our dreams.

Successful resolution. Acquirement of the Inheritance, Diverse Perspectives.

I wasnt sure what it was, but I did know that it was the treasure Songee earned all by herself after a tremendous adventure while we were all out of our minds. She had suddenly jumped up to the top of our food chain.

We all headed to Room 105 to have lunch while reading her mood. She would probably tell us something once we started having a nice meal.

- Bam! Bam! Clap clap clap clap clap! Clap clap clap clap clap! Clap clap clap clap clap!

As soon as we entered Room 105, we were met with the sound of firecrackers and a loud round of applause even though there was no-one in the room!

/Esteemed guests! Congratulations!

We, the staff of this Hotel, give sincere words of congratulations on you discovering your first treasure. Unending trials! Vanished teammates! Hopelessly stronger foes! And overcoming all those adversities to reach the treasure! You have proven that you are most definitely the heroes that we had been waiting for.

Of course, we have no doubts on the capabilities of everyone else either. Every invited guest has the qualification to obtain a treasure and we are very glad to be able to observe your upcoming epic poems.

However, as strong as they are, the treasures are very difficult to use. For the next 3 days, how about you take a rest and get used to the treasure? Sometimes you need a good rest for a bigger step forward.

Todays Surprise Event: Party Time! Will now begin.

# The Party Time will last for 3 days and there will be nothing dangerous happening during that period. Also, there seems to be a secret in this Hotel that only shows itself during the Party Time!/

A big set of announcements flashed on the display screen of Room 105. Everyone was speechless for about 30 seconds and

Clap clap clap! Everyone. Say thanks to Songee. Hurry up!

Eunsol-noona brightened up the mood in an instant as everyone started a bustling celebration. At the start, there was a look of fatigue and fluster on Songees face but before long she blushed and returned to the same Songee we knew of.

Only after summoning the food and rowdily digging into it did we start asking her questions.

So, Miss Dark-mode Songee. Please explain what happened to us plebeians.

Unni! What are you even saying! What is with this Miss Dark-mode thing?

Then lets go with Fallen Songee mode. I was so scared that I couldnt even say anything to you until then.

The story she unravelled was very shocking.

A human farm created by aliens using manipulative tools to extract the intellect of humans the spaceship with the farm and a divine transcendent being acting as the engine. Songee talked about receiving the help of that transcendent to escape and acquire the inheritance.

And she also explained the trials she had to go through.Geett the latest novels on no/v/elbin(.)c/om

Meeting the collaborator in a place where countless intellectual beings were being tortured forever with only their heads; and crushing the heart of the administrator by massacring baby Athanasias in a place filled with those babies. We were already breathless after hearing up to that point but the last trial she talked about was fighting us who had been under the control of those aliens.

Everyone was struck speechless.

Songee didnt say much about how she overcame those trials and we also didnt want to bother asking her about how she killed each one of us so we glossed over it. Looking back, she was also the one killing us at the Mansion of Fear.

She was like a terrifying murderer in all the scenarios. That was what I thought, but I obviously didnt voice out what was in my mind.

When the atmosphere of the room turned shivering cold, Eunsol-noona organised the situation as always.

Now! Anyways, lets put aside the things of the past and decide on what we have to do now!

According to the announcement, we will be having the next 3 days off. I think our first job is to follow the announcement and spend some time to have everyone understand that inheritance, I said.

I agree. Anyone else?

There will be nothing dangerous during the Party Time and there is a secret that only shows itself during the Party Time Well, its pretty much telling us to explore the Hotel right? I guess we have to take a little rest and go out on another exploration Jinchul-hyung added, which was soon followed by Eunsol-noona.

???

Wait, you mean this is with restrictions?

It was already very different when I was using it compared to the Athanasias but that was because I wasnt a good user. Even aside from that, it became a lot harder to use compared to the one I had been using. The movement function is blocked as well.

The movement function might have been limited to the spaceship.

Maybe.

And what do you mean by harder to use?

I have to concentrate way too much to use this. To the point that I cant use this for more than 10 minutes.

Noona! Maybe thats a nerf? Seungyub interjected.

Nerf?

Even in games, there are some super amazing weapons that the boss uses, right? When you defeat the boss and it drops that item, they sometimes nerf it tremendously to make sure it doesnt break the balance of the game.

Funny but thats probably correct.

Eunsol-noona showed her agreement and after that, Songee opened her mouth again while looking around.

Ill test it one last time. This time Ahri?

Kim Ahri

It was mysterious. And made me very jealous.

The mind manipulative tool of aliens.

It was on an incomparable level to the sloppy toys used at the Administration. The remarkable thing was that there was pretty much zero cost despite that ridiculous ability, which was completely different from the terrible toys used by the Administration which required litres of blood, your lifespan or were as big as buildings and could only show an illusion for 10 seconds.

The one that this girl had was as small as a bracelet and could play with intellectual beings for 10 minutes and yet the only cost was a slight headache.

It was because the Hotel constantly gave out ridiculous items like this that the Administration couldnt get rid of their greed and constantly forced agents into the Hotel.

Everything around me was becoming a mess even while I was continuing that line of thought. It suddenly turned into a sea of flames, before becoming a frozen wasteland (it even felt cold), and soon there were floating faces of teammates.

Should I try retaliating?

I had a feeling that I might be able to but I soon decided not to. It would only make things tedious if I made someone with such abilities wary of me.

The bracelet test seemed to be over. I returned to the room with a flick.

That was when letters appeared in the air.

What exactly are you?

I remember everything.

What are you hiding from us?

I will keep my eyes on you.

Ah. Her vigilance was already at MAX level. I really wanted to avoid situations like this but what else could I have done? If I didnt force myself to use my abilities at that Farm, I might have killed her and ruined everything.

Its going to be exhausting to have someone with such powerful abilities wary of me though

Should I do something that lowers her wariness?

Ahris eyes regained their focal points and it seemed that Songees bracelet test was about to end.

Right when I was thinking of forming a Hotel exploration plan with everyone else

Ahri suddenly gave Songee a massive hug.

Unni! I love you~~!

I was lost for words.
