Chapter 23: 23

I just came back.

 

Does that mean that this hotel door has SSS-Class durability?

 

It was when I was panicking. 

 

Another familiar face stuck out from behind Aunt Misoon’s back. 

 

It was Uncle Junsu.

 

“Junghyo-yaa…. I miss you so much… Uh-hu… You look very haggard!” 

 

Yes? I gained 4 kg after coming here.

 

I looked at Uncle Junsu with a puzzled face and asked. 

 

“Uncle Junsu’s face looks more haggard.” 

 

It really was. 

 

Originally, he didn’t have fat, but he certainly seemed to have lost weight because his eyes were thin and his cheekbones were a little more prominent. 

 

“About me, well… Because you don’t answer the phone….” 

 

Ah, the phone.

 

It was only then that I realized that I hadn’t turned on my phone even once in the four days I was with Han Woohyun. 

 

Ah, so that’s why the two came up a day early! 

 

“Don’t even mention it. I barely stopped him from coming up yesterday, so I came today. How long has he been crying over the phone… Oh, my. This burn! I’m worried about Junghyo, but do you feed the twins?!” 

 

Aunt Misoon slapped Uncle Junsu on the back as if she was dumbfounded. 

 

Then Uncle Junsu yelled at Aunt. 

 

“I, it hurts! My sons said they like jajangmyeon!”

 

“…What are you talking about?”

 

“And why would you use an S-Class item to open a wooden door in the first place? What did you do if our Junghyo got hurt! Huh!?”

 

Uncle Junsu took a pistol-shaped tool from Aunt Misoon’s hand. 

 

Aunt Misoon glared at Junsu as if she was dumbfounded. 

 

“This is made with a kind of low frequency that is harmless to living things… Hey! What do you know about magic engineering? And if you break it with your wild power, not only will the door be blown away, but the wall will be blown away too!”

 

“Wild? Did you say wild?”

 

And soon, as usual, the two people quarreled again. 

 

It sounded like it was going to be a rough weekend.

 

I hurriedly cut the two of them off and said.

 

“W, what about Uncle Minhyuk? Didn’t Uncle come with you?” 

 

At my question, the two who pretended to have a childish gunfight stopped talking.

 

Aunt Misoon answered.

 

“He couldn’t come. Didn’t you see the news? The communication seems to have been cut off. The rescue team has been dispatched, and Han Minhyuk is also on standby.” 

 

Next to her, Uncle Junsu clicked his tongue. 

 

“I can’t believe he has to enter the S-Class Dungeon again at that age. Anyway, he has a hard time in his later years, too. So I said let’s just do a civil servant with me.”  

 

What do you mean by a civil servant? 

 

Junsu is the only person in the world who can call the position of the president of the Hunter Association, which cannot be touched by the government or influential guilds like that. 

 

Anyway, the important thing was the fact that even though it had been several hours since Han Woohyun returned to the dungeon, the dungeon attack team hadn’t returned yet. 

 

It must mean that Han Woohyun has yet to come back.

 

Feeling a sinking heart, I spoke to the two of them.

“That’s too bad. Uncle can’t come. Oh, I didn’t know you were coming today and I didn’t go to the grocery store in advance, so would you like to eat at a raw fish restaurant over there?”

 

“Sashimi?”

 

“Sashimi?”

 

Both Aunt Misoon’s and Uncle Junsu’s eyes were sparkling.

 

It was a face that had forgotten everything about the hotel door’s secrets, which had not been broken down even with S-Class items.

 

* * *

 

“Junghyo-yaaaa… This Uncle said… Thank you so much for growing up so well….” 

 

“Shut up.” 

 

3 hours later.

 

Uncle Junsu, who was nicknamed alcohol trash, was drunk, and Aunt Misoon tried to pay the bill by blocking Uncle Junsu’s drunkenness with a face that wasn’t drunk at all. 

 

“I’ll do it, Aunt.” 

 

“Huh? Never mind. You just started business, so how can you have money?”

 

Uh…that’s… yesterday, I suddenly earned 10 million won, no, if I added the dollar exchange rate, I would earn 11.86 million won. 

 

There’s no way I could say that.

 

I obediently step back from the counter. 

 

Aunt Misoon calculated the huge amount of sashimi and alcohol consumed by two S-Class hunters and picked up Uncle Junsu, who was drunk, on her back.

 

I heard that when you ‘Awakened’, you don’t get drunk as much as before, but seeing that Uncle Junsu, who Awakened at S-Class, became unconscious with only five glasses of soju, I can’t imagine what it would have been like before he Awakened.

 

Seeing Aunt carrying Uncle Junsu on her back, the chief of the woman’s association said with a moved face. 

 

“That woman is strong!”

 

Aunt Misoon glanced at me for a moment with a mysterious face and nodded.

 

“Ah, yes, well… I do a lot of lifting.” 

 

“Aah, a delivery courier?”

 

“Well… It’s similar…” 

 

Even if it was a production-type Awakener with little to do with strength stats, Aunt Misoon was S-Class. 

 

I saw Aunt Misoon lift and move the refrigerator in the past. 

 

It was a business double-door type.

 

I followed Aunt, who walked with Uncle Junsu in the same way she carried the refrigerator at the time. I thought I should increase the rest of my stats for muscle strength.

 

I also remembered that I was dripping with sweat when I moved Han Woohyun’s weak body even a little bit. 

 

Ah.

 

Han Woohyun.

 

There was still no news of his return.

 

Even if he is alive, it takes quite a while for an article to appear on the news, so it was actually quicker to call Uncle Minhyuk to check it out. 

 

Let’s call him a little later.

 

I thought so and fiddled with my phone.

 

Aunt Misoon, who laid Uncle down at the 201 accommodation I guided, looked at me and asked.

 

“…Do you have a boyfriend?”

 

“Yes?” 

 

“You were fiddling with your phone.”

 

I put my phone in my pocket quickly.

 

“What do you mean a boyfriend? No, I don’t have.”

 

“I, well… Since you said you came down here, did you meet with the local youth president?”

 

Youth President.

 

Those words reminded me of the youth president of my neighborhood, who already has two grandchildren.

 

“You’re not seeing anyone on purpose, are you?”

 

Aunt Misoon said this as she put a pillow under Uncle Junsu’s neck and moved her hand in a friendly way, which was different from when she put him on the bed as if tossing him.

 

What do you mean on purpose?

 

It’s not like I didn’t meet anyone.

 

I just couldn’t tell them most of the time because it didn’t end well.

If I had to reveal my love experience, two times— no, should I say three times? 

 

Most of the time, the other person’s feeling was much faster than mine, so I received a confession while overtaking the speed of my mind.

 

Everyone said it was okay even if I didn’t feel the same way as them, but in the end, they left, saying they were frustrated because I was slow. 

 

I don’t think I could hold on to them because they weren’t even an opponent who left me with lingering feelings. 

 

There were times when I also felt the need for what my ex-boyfriends say, ‘opening hearts in a relationship.’

 

And since I don’t have someone like that, I know that Aunt Misoon and the Uncles sometimes worry about me. 

 

Even if it’s not necessarily a lover.

 

Just in case I’m afraid to open my heart to someone.

 

She must be very worried again—.

 

I knew Aunt Misoon’s heart because, even though she didn’t show it, she worried about me just as much as Uncle Junsu.

 

So, she must have been determined to follow Uncle Junsu and come down here to check on me.

 

Now that it’s like this, should I go on a blind date next time I go to Seoul?

 

If I talk to Minji, she’ll get excited and try to put me one after another.

 

“If there’s someone I like, I’ll meet them right away. Don’t worry, Aunt. Room 202 has been cleaned up. Would you like to go there?” 

 

I quickly spoke brightly before Aunt was more worried. 

 

For reference, Bellboy explained that all items in the hotel are not visible unless the revolving door leading to the dungeon is open.

 

If an item in the hotel got caught in the Aunt’s S-Class identification skill, it was only a matter of seconds before my Awakening was revealed. 

 

“O, oh, yeah. Let’s go. I have a lot of items for you anyway. I developed these items so ordinary people can use them…!”

 

Aunt Misoon opened the door to Room 201 excitedly.

 

“Ugh…!”

 

Aunt Misoon screamed as soon as she opened the door.

 

“W, what’s wrong?” 

 

I was puzzled.

 

“That… what’s that… I think I’m going to faint….” 

 

At that time, I saw a bellboy sitting in front of Aunt Misoon with his tail wagging and her bag in his mouth. Aunt Misoon was holding her chest. 

 

“So cuteeeee!”

 

Aunt Misoon put her arms around the bellboy’s neck and let out a happy groan. 

 

“Kiyuung… Kyung… (Hmph!! t’s so good, but I can’t breathe! Hehe, but it’s so good… Ack, breathe… I love it… I can’t breathe…!).”

 

Calm down, you two.

 

* * *

 

I went down to the lobby after a short commotion in front of Room 201.

 

‘Ha… I didn’t get caught.’

 

I had heard that even with Misoon’s identification skills, items such as projector curtains in the hotel could never be seen, but I was very curious. 

 

“But how can you hide the identity of the hotel?”

 

In response to my question, the bellboy who became a retriever only let out a cute groan of ‘Kyuuuuung?’ and didn’t answer.

 

If I look closely, he will avoid answering important questions. 

 

Just wait and see. I’ll get the right answer one day.

 

Anyway, it didn’t matter now. 

 

I had piled up a mountain of items Aunt Misoon brought me as gifts in the lobby. 

 

It was an amount that wouldn’t fit in Aunt Misoon’s bag at all. 

 

Aunt Misoon’s bag is also an A-Class product, so it contained more than it looked and was light in weight as it was packed in the bag. 

 

I took it out of her bag and looked at the stacked crafting items with my eyes. 

 

How hard was it to manage my expression when I received these? 

 

‘Ah, Aunt, something so precious to me…!’

 

‘Something precious? No. I was just going to put this on the flea market. They’re all for ordinary people only.’ 

 

Ordinary people are the only ones who use it.

 

She said it was just cheap.

 

Transparent Helm (B)

 

—If you stay still without moving when activated, you will become invisible.

 

Blink Ring (A)

 

—When activated, you can teleport up to 5 times.

 

—Cooldown time: 24 hours after activation

 

—Limit of movement distance: 10 m per time

 

Invincible Veil (S)

 

—Block all attacks once, regardless of the type of attack.

 

—Cooldown time: 24 hours

 

…How can this be cheap?

 

I put my hands on my head with a puzzled face.

 

At this level, it was an item worth buying for a small officetel. 

 

Aunt gave it to me without knowing that I had Awakened, so it was difficult to refuse it in front of her openly. 

 

“Woof, woof! (Boss! These are really, really good things!).”

 

Whether he knew how I felt, the bellboy was excited as he walked among the things.

 

He was especially interested in the transparent helmet, so he tried it on his head.

 

“Kyuu… (Why can’t I do this?).”

 

“That’s because your tail doesn’t stay still.”

 

I answered and pointed to the bellboy’s tail, constantly waving from side to side.

 

The bellboy listened to me and tried several times to stop his tail, but it didn’t seem to be working. 

 

It’s cute. 

 

It was then.

 

I could hear my cell phone, which was stuck in my pocket, start to ring.

 

☎ Uncle Han Minhyuk 

 

It was Uncle Minhyuk’s call.

 

I signaled the bellboy, who kept whining, to be quiet, and answered the phone. 

 

“Hello.” 

 

—Is it Junghyo?

 

The old man’s tired voice reached my ears.

 

Maybe it’s because it’s been a long time since I’ve been on the phone, and a corner of my heart felt cold as if I was calling my hometown. 

 

—I’m sorry I couldn’t come today. I’m even more sorry that I won’t be able to go tomorrow. 

 

“It’s okay, Uncle. Guild work comes first.”

 

—It’s not like that… 

 

Uncle Minhyuk let out a rare sigh.

 

I was a little anxious about Uncle’s sigh since he rarely showed his feelings. 

 

Perhaps—.

 

“Did the guild members get seriously injured?”

 

—No, everyone just came back. Han Woohyun, including that guy.
