READ NOVEL ONLINE Welcome to Dungeon Hotel
Chapter 177
“Wha, what if you suddenly press a button like this without any discussion! And since when did you see the button?”
“Me? Well, I’ve been seeing that alliance thing all along. It’s quite fascinating, you know? Quests didn’t pop up, but seeing the hotel level going up was fun. The construction list was interesting too. Wow, I didn’t know it would actually get pressed though.” Alex Grey said brightly as she continued to fiddle about. What on earth? No, no. Come to think of it, Alex Grey is supposed to be the original owner’s successor, but if this status window didn’t appear to her, that would be even stranger. “If I kept seeing it, wouldn’t you want the system I have even more?” “Want…?” Alex tilted her head. “Not at all? Seeing numbers go up like in a game seemed fun, but actually completing quests and all seemed kind of bothersome.” “You can get stronger much faster.” It seemed as if the roles had reversed, and I began persuading Alex. While I could have asserted my position as the 1st branch manager, given that it had already been appointed, I felt uneasy about doing so. What is this light attitude? Alex, who glanced at my expression, chuckled as if deflating a balloon. “Why, why are you laughing…!” When I got angry without realizing it, Alex muttered, ‘Oh, sorry, sorry,’ and waved her hand. “Please don’t be angry, boss. I just… found it funny how you suddenly went from saying there’s something more important than getting stronger to trying to convince me to get stronger.” “Yes?” I felt speechless at Alex’s words. What I said to Hunter Yoo Heeji at the banquet hall just now. “Everyone doesn’t need to get stronger,” is what I’m saying. “I was a little moved by those words. Actually, I’ve always been treated like a useless child under my father’s authority.” When I looked into Alex’s eyes at those words, she slightly shifted her gaze. “I’m not the type to sit still in a place like a hotel. I love traveling and being active. So whenever I got scolded by my father, I used to think I was really useless. But hearing that you just need the desire to fulfill your purpose, it strangely gave me courage.” The thought of being a useless person. I also sympathized with this because I experienced it a lot during my first social life. Maybe I’m not the only one who can’t stand living according to others’ expectations. Perhaps I’m not the only one feeling uncomfortable and struggling alone. Perhaps I was born as a mutant from the start, not fitting into society’s norms. Maybe there is no place for me in this world forever. Feeling alone and worried. But after a while, I realized that wasn’t the case. Indeed, society needs a variety of people, and there are various roles available. There are likely openings where I can fit in just as I am, with just a slight adjustment in posture. Like how I’ve somehow infiltrated the Dungeon Hotel as I am now. But I hoped this was Alex’s place. Because I was happy running a hotel. I hoped that Merlin Gray’s desire to convey that happiness would be conveyed to his daughter. “But…Alex reacts more sensitively to the satisfaction of others than anyone else. That might mean Alex is someone who can find happiness through the happiness of the hotel guests.” “That could be true, but… well, there are ways to make others happy beyond just the hotel business. Hehe. And…I’m saying this because I don’t think you know…” “Yes?” What don’t I know? “Ah, I didn’t mention it. I don’t see satisfaction status, but I can feel it naturally.” Ah, I see. As expected, Grey’s blood isn’t going anywhere. “However, when guests’ satisfaction increases, the boss’s satisfaction also goes up automatically. The boss’s satisfaction rises the fastest. So, it’s not me but the boss who is most influenced by others’ satisfaction. The boss is more suited to the hotel industry than I am.” Alex smiled and pointed at me. “Yes?” I furrowed my brow, staring at Alex’s fingertips. Then Alex groaned softly, rested her chin, and smiled at me. “Ah, I see, you don’t know. Just bringing coffee or food to the guests at Gray Hotel and seeing them enjoy it even a little makes me feel so good that satisfaction just overflows from the body. If you pretend to be indifferent while it’s flowing out gently like a cat’s tail, it’s kind of adorable. How cute is that, didn’t you know…?” Overflowing with satisfaction? Does it look like a cat’s tail? …What are you saying now? I said, quietly averting my gaze. “That can’t be right.” I heard Alex giggling. My face became hot. “Be quiet! F, from now on, we’re going to distribute the profits and experience points.” Despite my threats of withholding payment if she didn’t quiet down, Alex just continued to laugh as if finding the situation amusing. * * * Of course, it was decided to split the experience points and profits equally. Instead of complaining, Alex was very grateful. “Hehe. I can’t work for a while…” I also decided to accept Alex’s wish to travel and rest for a while. It was because I agree with Alex’s desire to find her own purpose, especially with the presence of automatic operation settings. “However, if you don’t keep me informed, I won’t stay quiet. Please contact me occasionally, even if it’s through Samoyed.” “Now you’re openly threatening me.” I let Alex go, on the condition that she delivers news at least once a month. Of course! Before Alex left again, she made sure to say hello to the people who came with her. “I’m sorry… I was actually an S-class summoning sorcerer… I’m sorry for hiding it… I was the one who summoned the dwarves.” So, I lied that she was an S-Class summoning sorcerer from Argentina because I couldn’t say that she was an S-class dragon. The innocent adults believed what she said. “S-Class summoning sorcerer! It’s so amazing!” “Your name is Alex, right? Can I get your autograph now? I want to brag about it on the internet later…” I think something like this will be posted tomorrow. Title: Revealing the Story of Encountering an S-Class Summoning Sorcerer at the Dungeon Hotel (Picture) Photo for verification. I got an autograph. ㅇㅇ There was an S-Class Summoning Sorcerer from Argentina… who was either a handsome man or a beautiful woman. [Comment] – Argen: There are no S-Class Summoning Sorcerers in Argentina? Is that by any chance the owner’s alt characters? – Mignon1243: How many alt characters does the owner have? ㅠㅠ S-class paladin, S-class barrier magician, and S-class summoner… Mhm. This doesn’t work. I stopped Alex, who was excitedly trying to sign an autograph and turned to the guests. “The signing might be a bit much but Alex here is my personal guest, and the guests have suffered damage because of my personal guest, so how about coming to the Dungeon Hotel next time for new MTs? There are no group rooms, so you have to sleep in a sleeping bag in the banquet hall, but if you don’t mind, I think it could be a good experience.” Alex mentioned that as mana becomes stronger, Front Desk skills will also be stronger, and she gave some tips on how to use mana. With that, any part of the hotel could be utilized as a temporary room, so we’ll be able to offer the banquet hall again next time. “…I, is that true?” Hunter Yoo Heeji’s eyes widened. She seemed very moved. Of course, it wasn’t just Yoo Heeji who was moved. The satisfaction level of ‘Banquet Hall Guests (F)’ exceeds 200%! The satisfaction level of ‘Banquet Hall Guests (F)’ exceeds 200%! The satisfaction level of ‘Banquet Hall Guests (F)’ exceeds 200%! The satisfaction level of ‘Banquet Hall Guests (F)’ exceeds 200%! In an instant, several windows appeared in front of my eyes, and these windows flew out at the same time. Congratulations! You’ve achieved the achievement ‘One Shot Twelve Hits’, and received 10,000G of Market Gold. There is no power to be surprised anymore. At that moment, Yoo Heeji handed me the autograph she had just received from Alex, smiling mischievously. “Then… Could you sign for me, boss?” “Ah, yes. I’ll do it for you.” That’s about it. I just made a lot of money, so I can’t help it. I thought so and signed it for Yoo Heeji. I don’t think I knew until I signed it for her. I never thought this sign would be posted on the internet with a title like this. Title: Received Signature from WoRanker (Picture) We went on a pre-MT survey trip and ended up at the Dungeon Hotel. I stayed one night there and even got the owner’s autograph. She’s very kind and cute. She walks around lightly as if her footsteps aren’t even making a sound, but when I ask her for her autograph, she looks a bit shy… I am just thankful that I received it with my naked eyes….;;; She even gave me a lodging voucher so I could come to visit MT again next time, but I’m not sure if I’ll be able to go;;; At this time, it was before the world rankings became popular, so there weren’t that many guests. But now;;; ㅎㄷㄷ “World Ranker,” abbreviated as “Woranker.” That’s me. About a week after I signed this. The world rankings have appeared. As expected, Uncle Minhyuk and Han Woohyun’s world rankings have gradually risen. Han Woohyun is even ranked 10th in the world. It was a ranking that would cause an uproar in the Korean media. However, there were few articles about Han Woohyun. The reason was because of me. This one is in the row right above Han Woohyun. This is me. Ranked 9th in the world. Hidden class hotel owner. Why am I suddenly ranked 9th in the world?! The day before I received this shocking news, I was enjoying a fairly long vacation. Han Woohyun, who belatedly heard the news that I had collapsed, suddenly showed up at the Dungeon Hotel. Han Woohyun suddenly appeared in front of the revolving door and was standing there with his newly prepared long spear sword and the bloody smell of a monster emanating from his entire body. “Are you okay?” And then he asks like this, how absurd it must have been. “You don’t look the best right now.” His pale face looked like he was about to faint at any moment.
