Escaping the Mystery Hotel - Chapter 0

Prologue – Strange Dream
I had a strange dream.
A February evening with a cool breeze blowing.
Senior year of high school after college entrance exam, before college starts.
Isn’t this the golden age of life? I went on a trip alone.
My entrance exam results were not bad, so I was able to receive a decent amount of pocket money.
Thanks to this, I traveled quite leisurely and spent the last part of my trip at a hotel in Jeju Island.
After touring all day, I lay down at the hotel, exhausted both physically and mentally, and right after I fell asleep, something strange happened.
When I came to my senses, I found myself standing in a space filled with pale fog.
As I looked around, I saw several dark shadow-like figures standing there.
For some reason, I felt like I had to move forward.
In less than a minute, I found a table. There were dozens of strange pieces on the table.
Choose your destiny.
Destiny?
What kind of fate can a piece like this decide?
Still, I felt like I had to pick something up, so I looked at the pieces and saw them ‘disappear’ one by one.
When I was panicking because I was afraid that pieces of my house would disappear, for some reason an owl statue caught my eye and I grabbed it right away.
At that moment, a notice appeared in front of me.
/Welcome guests to Hotel Pioneer! Pioneer boasts a long history since its opening in 1847, and has received rave reviews from many guests for its countless mysteries and endless treasures.
Of course, every treasure comes with its share of risks.
We sincerely hope that our customers will achieve their desired results at Pioneer! Now, go on an adventure./
What on earth? There are more than just one or two strange contents.
First of all, the name of the hotel I was staying in was not a grand name like ‘Pioneer’, and even if it was 1947, the word 1847 was absurd.
What kind of hotel is there in the Joseon Dynasty? Mystery and treasure? danger? adventure? When I became confused because there wasn’t a single word I could understand, I felt dizzy and collapsed.
Ah, this is the lucid dream I only heard about.
Am I losing consciousness again? I fell into the darkness, thinking I was having a strange dream.
