Sage Advice: 3]
Thank goodness. I fell asleep wondering if it would happen, but fortunately, the sage’s advice filled me up again for the 3rd time.
As Seung-yeop said, it seems to be a system that fills up again when you wake up.
What time exactly does it kick in? I’ll have to check it out sometime when I have time to count the nights.
After washing lightly, getting dressed, and getting ready in time for the meal, people ‘appeared’ here and there as if they had been waiting.
After arriving at the restaurant, saying hello to the now familiar people, I heard another good news.
“I found out what my blessing was yesterday morning. Really ha! “When I found out, I thought it was a bit absurd.”
“What! What is it, sister? “Do you have some kind of superpower now?”
Shaking her head, Eunsol suddenly held out her smartphone.
Why a smartphone? After arriving at the hotel, none of my smartphones were working properly, so I left them everywhere. that
However, Eunsol held out her smartphone in front of everyone and tapped the screen as if she had something to show them, and eventually pointed out an app she had never seen before.
HP Market
“HP? Could this be… Hotel Pioneer?”
“Maybe that’s it. “I’m just asking, just in case. Do other people have this too?”
Belatedly, everyone gathered their cell phones in a hurry, but as expected, there was no change in other people’s cell phones.
A mysterious app appeared only on Eunsol’s older sister’s cell phone.
“What is the function of the app?”
“I wasn’t able to experiment on my own in the early morning, so I just opened the app and read around.
First of all, it’s similar to Coupang. When you go into the market, there are lots of different things for sale. “The strange thing is… there is no ‘price.’”
“to? “So everything you buy is free?”
“There is no price, but there is a limit to the number of purchases. The maximum for any item combined is 1 per day or 3 per week. And delivery is immediate.”
“immediately? I live in Korea and the delivery is surprisingly fast and very convenient. Should I continue to live in Korea in the future?
“I think it’s so great that I can do it, but even so, I don’t think Coupang can handle things like immediate delivery.”
“Hahaha, if Elena continues to live in Korea, all the men will be happy, right?
Well, this damn hotel isn’t a normal place. Anyway, when I tried to buy something right away, there was a limit to the quantity…
First of all, I just saved it. I really need something! “It would be better to live when you are sure…”
“Well, I think we should definitely buy weapons, but first of all, is there anything like a gun?
Even if that doesn’t work, if I can somehow find something useful, it will be better than having to carry an iron bar around with me all the time.”
“Well, what Jincheol said was something that came to mind to me yesterday too. However, the products sold in this ‘market’ are unexpectedly common sense.
Just think of Coupang, but they don’t sell guns or long swords…
But I found a lot of things that could be used as weapons. What immediately came to mind was a baseball bat. In addition, there were kitchen knives, three-stage sticks for self-defense, tonfa, and everything else.”
“That alone is much better. To be honest, I overdid it a bit yesterday, but carrying that bar was definitely difficult.
A baseball bat isn’t bad, but Tonfa, as long as you know how to use it, it’s fine, right? Well… I don’t mean to brag, but I did some martial arts outside.
“I’ve been learning tonfa for a couple of months just for fun… I think it’s okay, but what do you all think?”
There was no one to object. After Eunsol nuna nudged it a few times, a tonpa was ordered, and the next moment, ding-dong! A refreshing sound rang out.
“This… looks like your stuff came outside?”
“I’ll go. Hey, I’m kind of looking forward to this… I’m having all sorts of experiences.”
After a while, Jincheol seemed to hear the sound of opening a box outside and appeared holding a tonfa.
He grabbed the handle, attached the long part to his wrist, and threw his fist into the air as if he was demonstrating some type of fighting.
I didn’t know anything about martial arts or anything like that, but the sight of a 190-foot-tall, muscular giant wearing a weapon and throwing a fist was so powerful that I was amazed.
Clap clap clap~
Before I knew it, Eunsol’s older sister started clapping with joy in her eyes. For some reason, it felt like we had to imitate him, so when we all clapped together, Jincheol blushed uncharacteristically and sat down at the table again.
It was the first enjoyable meal I had had since arriving at the hotel.
After finishing the meal, everyone was getting ready to get up, and as if it were now obvious, a notification appeared on the information window at just the ‘right time’.
/Dear customers! Did you enjoy your meal? Hotel Pioneer always takes great pleasure in preparing meals for our guests.
But, dear guests, did you know that the hotel hides many treasures? Beauty, nobility, high value, and greatness. There are endless treasures, blessings, and perhaps loves waiting for you that contain it all!
Of course, treasure is something that is only given to those who deserve it, and a little bit of risk, well, doesn’t that make it more beautiful? Don’t worry! We know that all of our clients are highly qualified.
In fact, all you have to do is open the gift box already prepared for you! So, dear customers. Let’s go find the treasure! Oh, by the way, rooms with treasures often have guests who aren’t very neat.
If possible, please all go in together. If only one person can come out, there won’t be a big problem for everyone./
There was silence to understand the situation.
“So… I guess I understand one thing. When he has rested enough and eaten enough, go to work.”
“No pun intended, huh, just looking at it, it looks like they’ve set a trap that’s perfect for digging. What? ‘All you have to do is open the gift box that has already been prepared?’
Oh, if you’re going to do that, just give the box in front of you. “You just have to open it.”
In response to Jincheol’s grumbling, Eunsol began to analyze.
“The first three paragraphs are summarized in one word: just go find the treasure…
The last paragraph has quite a bit of content. There is danger in the treasure room. Let’s all go in together. I understand this far, but
‘If just one person can come out, there won’t be a big problem for everyone.’ What does this mean?
‘If just one person comes out’
Actually, I think the hidden meaning in that sentence is ‘The difficulty is so hellish that only one person can barely survive!’ My mind began to spin as I wondered if this was a declaration. What should I do? Should I do as I’m told and go looking for where that treasure is?
Just when I was starting to feel dizzy, a notification appeared in the ‘status window’.

Sage Advice: 3]
“Well… something has popped up again. It says ‘class information’, and underneath it, rooms 101 to 107 are written, and next to room numbers other than 105, ??? is written.
Room 105 is said to be a resting room. “I think we should try other rooms except room 105.”
“Are you saying there are monsters and treasures in those rooms?”
“It seems like as soon as I buy the tonfa, I start using it…”
“Hmm… Shouldn’t we each be armed with the bare minimum?
Of course, it’s embarrassing to say it in front of Jincheol, but I also did some physical training while preparing for that performance.”
“Haha, what is there to be embarrassed about? Of course, I will try my best, but each of us must do our part to prepare.
Also, there is another friend here who has a slim physique and is good-looking. Ga-in, shouldn’t you prepare something too? “Do you know how to use a tonpa or something like this?”
“Uh… I’m sorry, but I’ve never learned any fighting arts or anything like that. Still, I think I have some stamina… but what’s better?
“Well, it doesn’t look like you’re bad at sports, but it’s a little disappointing that you didn’t learn martial arts. Still, with a physique like yours, if you swing something heavy, it will produce destructive power.
“If you don’t know how to use a tonfa, a tonfa is a bit out of the question, and a bat would be better for you.”
“Wait a minute, did you forget what I said earlier? 1 per day, 3 per week. “I already ordered tonfa today, so I can’t order more today.”
“Huh… um… then do I have to go in with my bare body? “That’s too burdensome…”
“Hey… there’s something I saw earlier.”
Songi looked at him, subconsciously feeling that he always seemed to shrink somewhere when he spoke.
“As you walk down the hallway here, you see a lot of strange props hanging on the walls that look like they are from movies, right? “There was a dagger among them.”
dagger. When I thought about it, I also remembered that on the morning of the first day, I grabbed an object roughly similar to a silver candlestick, intending to swing it like a blunt weapon.
I quickly got up and ran lightly in the direction pointed by Songi.
Indeed, because the hallway was so long, I saw a dagger decorated there that I had not noticed yesterday.
A truly gorgeous item. I don’t have eyes to see, but if something like this were sold somewhere, wouldn’t it start at at least 10 million won? I picked it up and returned to the table.
“Isn’t this a work of art rather than a practical dagger? There is even a jewel encrusted in the handle.
The durability of something like this may be more ambiguous than you think. It’s not something that actually makes you stab…
But it’s still 10 times better than bare fists. “It’s a shame there’s only one, but…”
Just one sack. For some reason, I felt like I was too sensitive to take care of it right away, so I asked for his opinion.
“Can I… take care of this? “It’s a bit ambiguous since this is the only weapon that resembles one.”
“I think it’ll be okay? I don’t know about Elina, who has trained quite a bit, but honestly, I don’t think Song or Seungyeop or I would put up a fight just because we were carrying something like this.
The more weapons there are, the more powerful it would be to use them. Everyone agrees, right?”
There was no one who objected, and naturally I became the only person to do something similar to Jincheol, following Jincheol.
Eventually, after finishing our meal and obtaining the minimum equipment, we left for room 101.
