Escaping the Mystery Hotel - Chapter 218
Only Krnovel
Episode 218 – No. 104, Room of the Curse – ‘Prestigious Hotel High School for Entrance Exam’ Re (12) Fin(?)
– Elena
The sky was clear and blue. However, the ground is full of broken machines everywhere, so there is no place to set foot.
I broke it again and again. It was difficult to guess how many machines were destroyed. The good news is that most of the troops sent by the Bureau to kill me were unmanned weapons. Among all those machines, there were at most less than 10 people.
I can guess the reason. After the underground city collapsed, the management bureau collected information about this ‘Hotel High School’ and may have realized that it was an extremely suspicious school. Also, they might have thought that I, who ran rampant at Hotel High School, had the magic power to captivate people’s minds.
I guess it’s okay. After destroying everything, I didn’t kill anyone, I just felt relieved!
All the blessings have been used, and the ominous imagination has not yet recovered. Therefore, there was not a shred of strength left in my body. However, his mind was at ease because he saw Mr. Cain flying into the sky and out of this room earlier.
So what should I do now… .
I picked up a gun that had fallen on the floor and thought about committing suicide right away, but I felt regretful and moved toward the underground city. It didn’t take long before they found the little girl.
“Ugh! Ugh! “Aaaah!”
“Hey, why are you crying so much?”
The girl looked back at me blankly, and there was fear in her eyes. Do you know me? Well, since she fought so loudly in this place, it might be strange not to recognize her.
“you! “You, you, your father!”
“father? “Do you think something happened to you?”
I guessed. He may not know it, but the plan to steal Mr. Gain’s body must have required a lot of effort on his part. Now that the plan has failed, it seems that the state will have no energy left, at least for the ‘second attempt’. That situation might be perceived as the disappearance of God to this girl.
But the Lord did not disappear. Because as long as No. 104 remains, he still has a chance.
“I am my father’s daughter! “As long as I’m in the school,”
After that, I ignored the girl’s whining and started thinking about realistic things. Is there any reason for me to remain in this room any longer?
Mr. Ga-in escaped, and except for Seung-yeop, who was caught by the police, all his colleagues are dead. However, it seems that the enemy has no more strength left. Maybe it would be solved if I just killed this girl in front of me?
…
One worry remained in my head. Legacy, ‘Divine Sun’ is another self created by the Lord. He hoped Mr. Gain would get the inheritance and go out.
So, what on earth will happen if someone other than Mr. Gain acquires the inheritance?
At least, it is certain that it is an ending that the Lord does not want. However, there is no guarantee that an ending that the Lord does not want will be a good ending for us. Perhaps someone other than Mr. Cain would not be able to bear the inheritance and would burn to death immediately. In this case, it would be the worst ending for the state, but it would also be the worst for us.
I also thought that such an extreme assumption was absurd.
‘Legacy’ is, in one way or another, a reward that the hotel gives us. As soon as the reward is given, the winner is burned to death? There’s no way the hotel would allow such strange compensation.
I don’t know. I don’t know what would happen if someone other than Ga-in gets the ‘Divine Sun’. It would be helpful to have some ‘advice’ at times like this.
After thinking about it for a while, I finally made a decision.
The second attempt was eventful and difficult, but we eventually figured out all the plans and moves of the week. If we come back someday, we can proceed with the room in a much more advantageous situation. Also, if you ask about the dangers of someone else obtaining the sacred sun through Mr. Ga-in’s ‘advice’, you will be able to get your own answer, right?
In this situation, there is no need to take on uncertainty and risk now. If you feel sorry for the sacred sun, come back to room 104. Of course, the escape button is now gone, so you’ll need to become stronger than you are now!
— Bang!
I lost consciousness with a single gunshot.

[User: Han Ga-in (Jihye)
Date: Day 98
Current location: Tier 1, hallway
Sage Advice: 3]
– Han Ga-in
The moment I suddenly came to my senses outside the room, the first place my eyes turned to was none other than the status window.
‘Advice from the Wise: 3’
Finally, the penalty on the status window has disappeared!
Although the process was difficult, Ari’s plan to use the penalty as a throwaway loss by pushing it into number 104 was successful in its own way. He immediately thought about what to ask. A few questions immediately came to mind. Of course, you need to share your opinions with your colleagues.
When I stood up and looked around, all the familiar faces were smiling. We moved towards the refreshment table, telling stories with everyone. The topic of conversation was, of course, room 104.
“In the end, Room 104 ends with an escape. No one has solved it, right? Elena ended up committing suicide? Seungyeop?”
“I escaped too, but I got out much faster than Ari!”
“Much faster?”
“I heard you got an escape notification about a week after you were caught by the police?”
“ah! I get it. We invaded the old school building that day, and Elena destroyed the old school building, and the next day we had a huge fight with the management bureau’s unmanned weapons. “Maybe the hotel high school was closed at the time you’re talking about?”
Let’s end No. 104 with an escape. She honestly had no intention of going back in. Above all, there is no escape button anymore, so you can’t use the same tactics. When I told the last thing I said to the Lord, my colleagues all laughed out loud.
“Did you even think about that during that time? Let me tell you that was a rather wise solution! However, it is a bit of a shame that the escape button disappears. Of course, it was something I would use anyway when the time came.”
Although Ari was having fun, it seemed like it was a waste to press the escape button. I also understood that feeling.
“Ha, indeed! You too are quite foolish. In front of such a person, ‘Do you have dementia? Where is the next step between us?’ Do you want to make fun of me like this?”
“Hyung, honestly, I guess I was the most annoyed? That crazy bastard, there are 8 other people here, and he’s trying all kinds of tricks just to steal my body. It gives me goosebumps! “I feel like I’m being followed around by a vicious stalker.”
“Stalker. That guy is definitely a vicious stalker. Now that I think about it, I’m curious, are you still in Kangrim?”
As soon as I heard those words, a corner of the status window caught my eye.
[Advent: 1]
“… There’s still one episode left.”
Ari said as if it was no big deal.
“I already tried it once, but nothing happened, right? In my opinion, Advent itself doesn’t seem to be a problem. “Aren’t there going to be problems when you go into room 104?”
Considering what I have experienced so far and what the Lord said, it is clear that the reason the Lord came to me was to strengthen the person called Han Ga-in.
This is because when you think of God as a lake, you cannot put the lake in soy sauce. To hold a lake, the bowl itself would have to be that big. When I first clashed with the Lord over control of my body, He said to me:
‘Do not be mistaken that the evil enlightenment you have gained is entirely your talent!’
If you add in Ahri’s story about how my growth in mastery of the grimoire was unbelievably fast, the strange extrasensory feeling that I suddenly felt at some point, and finally those words of caution, you will get the answer. Advent grew all the elements that make up a human being.
So, assuming that Kangrim does not return to room 104, there will be no problem?
Just as my thoughts were starting to become complicated, my grandfather organized the situation with clear logic.
“What are you worrying about again? It’s the same as before. Don’t use it on a regular basis, but use it once when you feel like you’d be devastated without it. “If I die without being able to use it anyway, I will suffer endlessly in this hotel, so even if something happens in the future, I will use it at that time, right?”
“Yes.”
I decided to stop worrying. As the saying goes, if we are faced with a huge crisis like annihilation, we will use the Third Advent unconditionally, no matter what side effects await us. After talking about Advent for a while, my older sister brought up a story about the Lord.
“Seriously, that guy went too far! They’re trying to attack us like they came from a strategy book. Isn’t that too much? “I really hope I never see you again.”
Jincheol asked another question.
“Are there any more prisoners like him?”
“If you’re a prisoner, isn’t it natural to dream of escape? The purpose itself actually made more sense. “I was just surprised by the way he created another legacy of himself, solved the room, and then escaped.”
Another being who dreams of escape like Joo. As the story came out, Ari suddenly grabbed his head.
“Ari? what’s the matter?”
“no… . I feel like I’ve met someone similar to me once. “Is it an illusion?”
A similar entity? Is this a memory that Ari forgot?
In any case, everyone agreed on the hypothesis that there would be more prisoners dreaming of escape, even if they were not in the state. When people are imprisoned, it is not uncommon for them to struggle to escape, and it is no different for hotel prisoners who are like gods.
The conversation that had been going on happily suddenly turned towards the doctor.
“Mr. Sanghyun! I was really surprised earlier. I really thought Sanghyeon was possessed by Joo? “What do you think, Elena?”
Elena’s face turned red at her older sister’s teasing tone, and she apologized to the teacher.
“sorry… . “I was a little embarrassed at that time.”
“no. On the contrary, the people who noticed it were amazing. Moreover, considering that the state read my actions at the time and had to fight with the bureau’s weapons, I should actually apologize.”
“no. “Even if we had realized that the Bureau’s military was there, we would have had to go anyway.”
In a friendly atmosphere, my older sister suddenly asked as if poking me.
“Mr. Sanghyeon, weren’t you honestly shocked when you heard ‘Joo’s’ proposal?”
Everyone flinched for a moment, but the teacher answered calmly, as if he didn’t really care.
“Didn’t I tell you the other day?”
“What?”
“Hotels need strong leadership. However, he said he hoped that the leadership would be one that emerges from a person’s natural abilities, such as knowledge and character, rather than from supernatural powers.”
“Oh, I remember.”
“So the state is eliminated from the beginning. “It was a problem I had no room to worry about.”
The atmosphere, which had been tense for a moment, cleared up in an instant. We had a great time laughing and chatting at the refreshment table until it was time for dinner.
