Welcome to Dungeon Hotel

Chapter 19

Taking a Bubble Bath

As soon as I saw the pool of dark red blood, I didn’t think it would belong to Han Woohyun.

I thought it was the blood of the monster he had caught.

Ranked 14th in the world.

Korea’s No. 1 ranker.

And there were only six S-Class hunters in Korea.

Han Woohyun.

He was strong.

No, he’s stronger now.

Awakening at the age of 17 and entering the dungeon at the age of 19, he has been breaking the first record in Korea ever since.

Records such as Korea’s first successful solo raid of an S-Class dungeon.

Everyone was talking about Han Woohyun at the same time.

He will definitely become a much stronger Hunter than Lee Semyung.

I hoped Han Woohyun would surpass my Dad.

But I also hope he won’t surpass him.

I hoped that he would grow stronger and stronger and come back alive, but at the same time, I hoped that he wouldn’t go into more dangerous dungeons.

Of course, I didn’t have that kind of feeling for Han Woohyun.

It was for my sake.

Now I didn’t want to wait any longer.

The S-Class Hunter who entered the S-Class dungeon—.

I don’t want to wait any longer.

As always, I avoided Han Woohyun’s eyes, which were fixed on mine.

It has been a habit since high school.

Whenever I felt the gaze, there was always Han Woohyun at the end.

I thought Han Woohyun was doing this not because he was curious about me but because he was curious about my Dad.

Because he’s a Hunter who walked a similar path.

Just as what I see through Han Woohyun is my Dad, so is Han Woohyun.

But something like my name—.

Why did you remember?

With trembling hands, I turned to the counter and picked up the accommodation register.

And I said in a low voice.

‘Front Desk.’

I need the power of the skill.

Even if I can’t defeat an S-Class Hunter with this skill, it’s possible to put him in the corner of a hotel or send him back.

“Would you like to check in, Hunter? If you tell me your name….”

I turned the accommodation register around so I could pull the corners of my mouth up and smile.

The fact that I was able to ask for his name, which the majority of Koreans must memorize.

It was all thanks to the skill.

“…Lee Junghyo.”

However, a strange answer came back when I asked what his name was.

Han Woohyun stood dangerously and said my name with a face as if he had seen a monster.

That’s my name.

Not your name.

Han Woohyun said again as he tried to hold back what he wanted to say.

“It’s Junghyo.”

This time he took off my last name and only my first name.

Since when did Han Woohyun call my name without my last name?

He never does it even once.

I was very surprised by the strange closeness of the title and how he didn’t hesitate to call me by my last name.

Most of all, what was puzzling was that his expression looked distressed as if he was wandering in a nightmare.

At the same time, there was something like a strong thirst in his eyes.

He walked towards me as if I had something to quench his thirst.

Tuk.

Every time he took a step, blood dripped out of his side.

Only then did I notice dark red blood dripping from the wound on his side.

“Han Woohyun!”

I called his name like a scream.

I forgot that I had decided to pretend I didn’t know his name.

His eyes grew bigger.

Covered in blood, he stretched out his hand that was gripping his side.

The hand that was about to sweep my cheek was withdrawn again as if it couldn’t bear to touch it.

“Seeing you call my name….”

A groan escaped from his lips.

“It must be a dream.”

Han Woohyun sat down at the same time he said that as if a tight thread had been released on one side.

It looked like slow motion as his body collapsed.

I hurriedly held his head to my chest. My body also collapsed with him.

Even as I collapsed, I hugged his head tightly and quickly looked at the bellboy.

The bellboy also looked flustered, as if he had never seen such a guest before.

Guest.

Even in my panic, I realized what I had to do.

Check-in.

Han Woohyun needs to be checked in before I can send him to his room. And there was a buff that increased recovery speed in the room.

“I want to force him to check in! What should I do?”

“Yeah… that… t, that… ugh… blood…”

I yelled at the bellboy’s pale face.

“Hurry!”

“Key! Please hold the key!”

“Bring me any keys on the second floor, now!”

The bellboy urgently brought the key to room 202.

Han Woohyun’s hand was tightly closed, so I opened it.

His hand, which was wrapped around his side, was full of blood.

I put the room 202 key and my hand on that sticky hand and said.

“Check-in.”

Room 202 has been checked in.

150G will be deposited.

It’s done.

I urgently asked the bellboy to carry Han Woohyun on his back.

I had to recover him by taking him to the guest room.

I clenched my teeth, looking down at the dark red blood.

How dare you do it in front of me—.

I won’t let an S-Class Hunter die in front of me.

Just when I thought that a window appeared in front of me.

You have achieved ‘Guest Satisfaction 200%.’

What?

What did I do?

I looked down at the drooping Han Woohyun.

However, there was no way that Han Woohyun, who had turned white as if all the blood had drained from his body, could answer this situation.

I was following the bellboy as he ran up the stairs with Han Woohyun on his back.

In the meantime, the window kept popping up in front of my eyes.

As an achievement reward, 300EXP points are given to level up the hotel!

The level of the hotel has been upgraded!

Hotel Level: 4→5

Skill: The level of ‘House Keeping’ goes up.

(C→B)

The room interior will be upgraded as a level-up reward.

A ‘bathub’ is created in the room.

******

I frowned as I looked back at the bloodstains on the floor as the bellboy carried Han Woohyun on his back.

The condition of the bellboy’s clothes was disastrous, and that of Han Woohyun, who fell in room 202, was even more disastrous.

As the status window said earlier, it seems that the interior of the room has changed a little more luxuriously, but I honestly didn’t notice it.

In my eyes, I was more concerned about Han Woohyun’s appearance because it was unclear whether or not he was still alive.

“Check the room’s condition!”

Room number: 202

Hygiene: Good

Effect: Room guests recover 100% faster.

This is the effect when my skill is C Grade.

Then it may be a little different now.

“Housekeeping.”

As soon as I said it, I felt something coming out of my body.

The feeling of the first day when I experienced mana exhaustion came quickly and struck me.

Originally, I felt that Housekeeping, which is more like an active skill, consumes more mana than the Front Desk skill, which is no different from a passive skill, but this is on a different level.

At the same time, I could see a noticeable change in the condition of the originally clean room in front of my eyes.

It works.

Even without a cleaning cart.

It seemed that the grade had risen, and there was no need for a cart anymore. Instead, it consumes my mana tremendously.

Room number: 202

Hygiene: Very good

Effect: Room guests recover 150% faster.

After checking the room condition and taking a deep breath, I sat next to Han Woohyun’s bed.

Then the bellboy asked anxiously.

“Are you okay, boss?” He asked with a face that looked like he was about to cry.

“I’m…not okay…Can you go down and get me some mixed coffee? As much as possible. Feed him too.”

I pointed at Han Woohyun with my chin.

The bellboy left the room crying.

After a while, I heard a short groan from Han Woohyun’s mouth.

I put my trembling fingers on Han Woohyun’s white nose.

I didn’t hear it wrong.

He’s breathing.

I was wondering if I give the corpse a recovery buff, but it was fortunate.

With even just that little bit of relief, I was able to let go of my tension.

In many ways, it’s not acceptable for an S-Class Hunter to die in our hotel.

After I came to my senses a little, I thought that even though the recovery buff is also a recovery buff, it is important to look at the wound.

I’ve seen Healer on YouTube, and it was said that the first aid given by doctors who aren’t Awakened is also a big help in getting healed.

With hands that were still shaking, I took off Han Woohyun’s vest.

Even though only the vest was removed, blood from the vest leaked into the sheet.

I tried not to throw up as I looked at the wound on his side.

It was tied up with something as if to give first aid, which made it harder to see the wound.

When I was about to give him first aid, I noticed that something was tied around his wound, which made it harder to check.

First of all, I took off Han Woohyun’s top—I tried to look at it, but I didn’t have the confidence to lift this stone-like human upper body, so I gave up and tore it from the torn part when it wound.

On the left side of his stomach, where the muscles were so tightly packed that it was hard to believe they belonged to a human, I could see a wound where the tough skin had been cut.

I frowned.

Blood is flowing, but bubbles also come out of the wound as if it had been melted by poison.

I have to wipe this off.

I instinctively thought so.

And that was the moment I was going to touch it.

Something grabbed my hand.

“…Don’t do it.”

It was Han Woohyun with sweat on his forehead.

He was clenching his teeth in pain, and I could see the muscles in his jaw pulsating.

“T, the wound….”

“If you touch it with your bare hands… Ugh…”

Han Woohyun bit his lip.
