(t/n : Hi. I change Junsu to Junsoo. Itâs no different just to make it the same with the raw)
26. @im_junsoo
3 days laterâ.
I was on a bus heading to Intercity Station.
Here is a brief description of the 3 days.
After Uncle Junsoo uploaded the screenshot I sent it to his account.
Since the account has more than 10,000 followers, the RT number rose by 12K in just one hour, and Hong Sungoh was rescued with the help of a large-scale search team that even mobilized the Hanwoon Guild in just a few hours.
Well, up to this point, it hadnât been too different from my small expectations, but what happened next was the bigger problem.

Korean people are really the best. The president of the association broke through the 12K mark in the âF-Class porter missing case.â A large-scale search team, including the Blue House petition and the Hanwoon Guild, searched through C-Class dungeons and found Hong Sungoh. The donation that arrived at Baemyeong Hospital exceeded 1 billion won. All of this in 5 days.
9875rt. 10K like. Send a reply.
âŠIn three days, Hong Sungoh took control of the entire bulletin board and social media.
During those three days, I couldnât do business and ate delicious food prepared by Geumdong while watching keywords related to Hong Sungoh boast huge amounts of traffic on the Internet.
As in the article written by the ID of ignite23, the story of the F-Class porter who even entered the Blue House petition was packaged with a feeling of âmoving true storyâ and was getting the whole nationâs attention like fire.
So, of course, as soon as the âtopic F-Class porterâ was rescued, all kinds of media started to cover it, and Hong Sungoh only responded to one of them.
But the problem was that Hong Sungoh talked about me there.
âŠMr. Hong, an F-Class porter who wandered alone in a C-Class dungeon for 5 days, said, âActually, the period I had to wander in the dungeon was four days.â he added, âI met an S-Class Paladin in a C-Class dungeon and came out after she safely providing food, clothing, and shelter in his sanctuary.â However, there are currently a total of five S-Class hunters officially registered with the Hunter AssociationâŠ
That, too, is an S-Class Paladin.
The moment I read the article, I almost spit out the abalone pot rice made by Geumdong.
The comments were even more ridiculous.
maysf12: Will Korea finally become a country with 6 S-Class rankers?
No. Because itâs not. Iâm an F-Class⊠No, itâs an E-Class hunter.
fjdkg: What is the constitutional council doing? This is not China or the U.S., and you canât find S-Class?
âă ă ă ă :Â I guess the S-Class Paladinâs nationality is Korean. Most of the S-Class jumped abroad. Isnât that obvious? How much do they get paid in the American Guild? Even the S-Class, which was in the early days of the Baekho Guild, jumped to America.
âburning2: Didnât they say she believes in strange religions?
âfjdkg: Donât touch our Paladin. She is the one who feeds, clothes, and sleeps, even F-Class porters in the sanctuary. This lightâŠ!
Iâm just getting paid to put my guest to sleep! Iâm a hotelier!
ă ă : There was a famous man who made a clickbait and talked about an S-Class barrier magician on the hunter bulletin board in the past. Isnât that this Paladin? He said she looked really pretty. A cat face and a cold beauty style.
âtlRmfj: Oh~ Youâre Aclass bastard. Nice to see you.
Itâs a relief that these comments are ignoredâ.
The problem is that because of the keyword S-Class, the reaction on the Internet is unusual.
Itâs natural that there have been rumors that the number of S-Class Hunters has been maintained at five and that Korea has been cursed to stop the birth of the S-Class.
Of course, it was fortunate that the internet media was fueling the current S-Class Paladin controversy.
In fact, if you want to get a certain number of clicks on an Internet article, you insert similar keywords and paste each otherâs articles to increase the amount of traffic.
Then, if another keyword arises that will attract the publicâs attention, it will be moved there again. The previous topic will be completely buried below, so the news about the S-Class Paladin will likely fade quickly.
However, itâs not something that I can ignore either.
Until Hong Sungoh, there were only 4 guests who came to our hotel.
Except for Kang Sangchil, everyone else didnât brag about what happened in the hotel.
Kang Sangchilâs post on the bulletin board was treated as clickbait, so they just moved on.
The reason they didnât brag about the hotel wasnât just because they were naturally heavy-mouthed.
I saw a hotel in the dungeon.
And there was a soft bed and delicious food in the hotel.
Imagine saying this to someone.
The person who said that would get an evaluation of their mental health right away.
If that person is a Hunter belonging to a guild, he will have to take the risk of being disadvantaged to some extent.
It is impossible to believe that someone says it.
So, until recently, hotel guests didnât care much about leaking the hotelâs existence.
But from now on, things will work a little differently.
The fact that Hong Sungoh, a hot topic person, stayed in the sanctuary of an S-Class paladin and was safely rescued became news, and people who saw the news were more likely to come as guests.
If so, the testimonies of the guests will become more and more consistent from now on, and their credibility will increase.
In addition, news spread that Hong Sungoh appeared in a short documentary to help parents with children with rare diseases like his son.
Thatâs what it means.
âNow I have to prepare for the existence of the real hotel being exposed.â
In fact, I didnât think it was possible that no one would find out about the hotel.
I just wanted to inform the world of the hotelâs existence in the most efficient way when I could fully control the hotel so that a specific group targeting the hotel couldnât use the hotel for their own benefit.
There are many ways to control the hotel, but the simplest is to raise my skill and stat level or to get help from more diverse spirits.
Didnât I already feel the power of the front desk skill?
Besides, Geumdong, who has a lot of strength, and Toto, who is good at magic, also appear as spirits.
In other words, more and more employee spirits will appear in hotels.
With powerful skills, stats, and the help of spirits, more Hunters can rest and go to hotels under my control.
Of course, there is a slightly different way.
As Shim Jiyoon said, seeking cooperation from a specific guild or getting help from the government.
But there are risks.
Guilds and governments are troublesome opponents for individuals to deal with.
This means that even if they abuse the hotelâs existence, it can be difficult for me to do anything.
So, in the end, what I needed right now was time.
Time for me to be stronger.
To save time, I bought a ticket to go to Seoul.
âFirst of all, letâs check how far the Hunter Association has grasped the âsanctuaryâ that Hong Sungoh said.â
I contacted my fan club members to find out about it through Uncle Junsoo.
I also made an excuse so they wouldnât feel like âAt this timing.â
It was the reunion that Minji invited me to.
Uncle Minhyuk. I have a high school reunion tonight, so can I stay at your house?
To Uncle Minhyuk, like this.
Aunt Misoon. Iâm going to Seoul for my high school reunion tonight, so can I stop by your workshop? Iâm so thankful for the item gift that I will buy some gifts.
This is how it is for Aunt Misoon.
Lastly, to Uncle Junsooâ.
Uncle, I miss you.
Like this.
Of course, Uncle Junsoo was the first to answer. Uncle Minhyuk came next, but Aunt Misoon didnât answer until I arrived at Seoul Station.
Uncle Junsoo.
ă ă ă ă ă I miss you too, our Junghyo!! (Emoji shedding tears) Even the twins say they miss Junghyo! I want to see our Junghyo, tooâŠ(see more)
Uncle Minhyuk.
Iâll clean the outbuilding.
Aunt Misoon
Eh? What gift? My baby can come empty-handed!
I checked the answers of the three people and covered the rabbit ears that slipped out of my arms with my hand.
âKkyuâŠ! (Boss! Seoul is a very complicated place!).â
âHurry back into my pocket. In Seoul, animals are absolutely prohibited on public transportation.â
I came to Seoul with only Toto.
I left Geumdong at the head of the womenâs associationâs house.
âWoof woof! (Take me too! Are you sure youâre not going to miss me?!)â
âIâm sorry. Youâre a big dog, so I canât hide you in my arms.â
âKiyuung⊠(If I bent down like this, it would fit in the trunkâŠ).â
âWill it be? Itâs animal abuse. I will get caught.â
âŠThere was a long process.
However, Totoâs body is small, and I came with her because I had to get Totoâs help.
âKyuu⊠! (I have to protect the boss in such a dangerous place! Hot! A-Class monsters ahead!)â
âItâs not a monster, that person is a cat cafe promoterâŠ?â
I shook my head with a sigh.
I havenât been to Seoul in a long time, so the crowds make me feel dizzy.
Still, what are the advantages of Seoul?
Latte Department Store
I couldnât hide my smile as I looked at the shiny department store.
The point is that there are plenty of places to spend money.
And now IâmâŠrich.
I thanked my regular guest Han Woohyun from the bottom of my heart, and entered the department store.
* * *
First of all, what I chose as a gift for Uncle Junsoo was a new smartwatch.
He might already have one, but it didnât seem like a big deal for a very early adopter who often breaks his machines to have two smartwatches.
The next gift for Aunt Misoon was a warm winter coat.
Aunt, who only stayed in the workshop, often wore clothes out of season.
Since she is an S-Class hunter, she used to be strong against the cold and heat, but still, seeing her walking around her neighborhood in the middle of winter wearing a slipper and shorts made me very concerned.
Lastly, Minhyukâs gifts were the perfume he always uses and a jazz CD.
Uncle Minhyuk was sensitive to the smells and sounds of others.
So when he came back from outside activities, he would change his clothes and stay in his study to listen to his favorite jazz.
At that time, no one could enter Minhyukâs study. I was the only one who could enter Minhyukâs room.
When I entered, there was a very fine smile on Uncle Minhyukâs cool face.
âYouâre here.â
This is the scent I used to smell in Uncle Minhyukâs room every time.
When I was at work, I wrapped a luxury perfume that was hard to buy with my salary with a jazz CD and visited my Uncleâs house.
âI am making money now. I wanted to give you a gift like this.â
I thought he would be happy, but for some reason, he looked complicated when he saw the gift I was giving him.
âWhy are you like that?â
Uncle said with a smile as if it was nothing.
âThank you very much. Junghyo.â
As usual, the conversation with Uncle was about two or three words.
Uncle said he was sorry he couldnât come to the hotel because he was busy, and I briefly asked him how he was doing.
âI heard that the Hanwoon Guild also went out to search for F-Class porters. You were very busy, right?â
And after greeting him, I gently mixed these questions.
âI was never busy. Junsoo, that brat, must have been a little busy because he made a fuss and suddenly made a raid.â
This was the end.
What I can find out from these questions is to the extent that Uncle Junsoo hid the fact that I was the one who gave hints about Hong Sungoh from Uncle Minhyuk?
I think I know why.
Uncle Junsoo
This is the secret between Junghyo and me~
Because Uncle likes to make secrets with me.
I didnât expect to benefit from that.
âStill, Iâm glad that Hunter returned safely. Seeing as he calls it a sanctuary, it seems he was trapped in a trap or something within the dungeon.â
As Uncle Minhyuk added, as if passing by, I found out he didnât know the reality of the âSanctuaryâ properly.
However, it is unclear whether Uncle Junsoo is the same.
âI know. Iâm so glad heâs back.â
Soon, a familiar housekeeper brought my luggage to the outbuilding and said,
âHis mind is complicated. When my daughter first brought me a job present, I was upset for no reason. I feel like my child in my arms is suddenly leaving.â
âŠ.?
Are you talking about Uncle Minhyukâs complex expression?
I was slightly puzzled.
âBut my present from the first job was a year ago?â
âBut at that time, Miss Junghyo was in Seoul. It feels different.â
I donât know. I donât think Uncle was very emotional.
When I thought so, the Aunt brought out her unexpected words.
âThe guild leader keeps the key holder Miss Junghyo brought as a present for your first job. He called an A-Class Wizard a year ago and cast an A-Class storage spell because it felt like it was getting bad⊠Didnât you know?â
A-Class storage spell?
What a waste of talent that is�
At that time, the Aunt opened the door to my bedroom in the outbuilding.
