I was in the Hotel-
My mother
My neck
Faint mumbling voices reached my ears.
They appeared to be talking about something but I couldnt see nor hear anything.
Instead, from a distant place I could hear a hymn. In order to hold on to myself, I covered myself with the system window filter, closed my eyes and blocked my ears. Thanks to that, the sound of the hymn turned a little softer.
It felt like I was deafened. My body was definitely here, and yet it felt like my soul was being pulled to a distant place.
Voices soft whispers echoed in my ears. There was definitely an existence that was trying to convey their will to me but I couldnt make meaning out of those words. As if buried in the background noise, their voice was concealed by a buzz.
Several pieces of information vaguely permeated inside. Without necessarily hearing it from anyone, I realised it.
I realised that a negotiation was taking place at the heavenly table.
Soon, the negotiation was complete.

Let there be light.
And there was light.
*
A tornado of light was swirling like a storm.
In Elenas eyes, the scene in front of her eyes was more unrealistic than anything she had seen thus far.
Is this the process of a person turning into an angel?
Inexplicable rays and waves were radiating out of Kains entire body.
She just couldnt dare look at his face with her bare eyes. The halo behind him was truly that of one who descended from heaven.
Let alone beautiful and handsome, he looked holy. Standing in front of her was someone who had fallen from the sky, that human standards of beauty could not possibly explain.
Tears flowed out of her eyes as all the vicissitudes and pain she had gone through filled her brain. The plentiful and joyful childhood, which unfortunately came to an end due to their family having no choice but to escape from their homeland; poverty and danger was with them wherever they went to, and she had no choice but to leave like a grasshopper hopping for freedom without ever getting close to anyone.
I see, all that pain was to meet this person.
The pain and suffering of the Hotel were nothing but thorns of the path leading to salvation.
Old memories of sorrow and despair turned vague as tears fell like buckets out of her eyes.
Like that, Elena kneeled down and prayed.

My consciousness returned as I immediately opened my eyes. The first to enter my sight were my teammates.
Every one of them were out of their seats. Some were rolling on the floor while some were on their knees, praying to me.
Only then did I notice something. Just then, I had left the realms of humanity.
What did I have to do to return to being a human? Although I wasnt sure, what was certain was that I had to leave my teammates for the time being.
Mindlessly, I stood up and pushed the door of Room 105 wide open.
The door got torn and ripped apart.
Since I didnt even have the time to stay there in astonishment, I immediately dashed outside.
It is up to you to decide which is correct.
Then, do it this way, said Ahri.
Im listening.
Try not to use it ever until the very very end. And when worse comes to worst, when everyone except for you is dead, or if you think it will be a wipe if you die thats when you should use it.
A final resort, reserved only for the last moment.
I decided to think of the new ability I gained today as a final resort skill, before thinking about some other things by myself..
I was walking around in contemplation when I noticed that Elena and Songee would flinch and avoid me whenever our eyes met. Looking back, those two were the ones who had been praying in front of me
It was very awkward.
In the end, I headed to somewhere isolated while leaving everyone else behind using the excuse that I wanted to have some time to organise my thoughts. There were a lot of things I had to think about today anyway.

Im just saying this now that Kains not here but What did you guys think when you saw him? Eunsol opened her mouth.
Like, holy? He looked like an angel.
Unbelievably handsome; the saviour of the world some ridiculous things like that.
Looks like Songee and Elena felt the same way as me, said Eunsol after hearing the words of the two.
I think it will be very awkward to see Kain-oppa from tomorrow.
Probably the same for me. Elena agreed.
Same here, said Eunsol. It was only for a little bit, but he appeared like a totally different existence from us.
I guess were not in the mood to eat any more and theres less than 10 minutes left of mealtime. Lets take a rest. Well, we will probably all disappear to our own personal spaces in 10 minutes though.
Will we?
What do you mean, Ahri?
After gesturing at the door with her chin, Ahri continued with her sentence.
Im just concerned if Room 105s system will still function properly or not even when the door is broken.
Her concerns were realised.
That day, all functions of Room 105 stopped, and everyone was left behind at the seemingly bombarded room even after the mealtime was over.
In the end, everyone had to take their few belongings and each head to a place where they could go to sleep.
*
Ahri.
Unni? Didnt you say you were going to sleep near the tea table?
Im going to, but I have something to say before that.
You do? Why didnt you say it before?
I wanted to talk to you alone.
Ill be honest. Im not really worried about your past; what your objective is and how you were born.
Ever since I was young, I grew up working in the company. You see all sorts of people when youre working on a large project most people have other stuff in their mind and the role of a leader is to take all of them regardless and somehow make something happen.
But there is a condition for that to happen.
Its that everyone needs to cooperate on the progression of the project at the very least. Even if everyone has different thoughts in mind and different goals, as long as everyone cooperates for the project, things will go just fine.
Youre saying we should cooperate for the big objective of escaping the hotel, right? I was going to do that anyway.
I know, and thats why I was trying to gloss over everything instead of interrogating you. Whatever the case, none of us wants to stay in this strange hotel for thousands of years. Im sure you know what I mean.

The next day,
The display screen of the Hotel created a big fuss as soon as it was morning.
/Massive Construction Work!
The staff members of Hotel Pioneer are here to convey some very disappointing news. Last night, due to the rampage of a violent and disrespectful customer, several facilities of the Hotel were destroyed which thus interfered with everyones comfortable sleep time.
Regardless of the person responsible for this incident, as the staff of the Hotel, we sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused.
The Hotel will be closed for today. All facilities will be stopped, and we kindly ask our dear customers to use the camping grounds in the basement.
In 1 hour, the Hotel will be shut down. Please make your way to the camping grounds./
