Everything felt distant. Was I still alive?
I couldnt see anything with my eyes, nor could I feel anything with my body. Maybe this is how it feels for your consciousness to float without a body
That was when a soft voice was heard from sowhere.
Can you hear ? I hope you can, because you are half-healed. Your arm was completely shattered but that wasnt even the main problem. Your stomach, liver and intestines were all ruptured.
Tap tap tap.
Honestly, if there was a patient like this in the outside world, we would seal the stomach back up. If soone can heal this, they would be the god of dical science instead of a human being. In that sense, you can half call the god of surgery.
I did study a hell of a lot when I was young. Although embarrassing, I was the pride of our family. I got into dicine at uni, and was getting top marks! My father was always busy bragging about , and my mother was the envy of all the mothers of our village. Ahh I hope theyre both doing fine.
Well, but I did achieve my dream. I beca a doctor, and thanks to that, Im still living like this despite being a loser, and even half beca the god of surgery.
Rip. Crack.
Haha. To think Im bragging about myself in a ti like this. Im really sorry, but its been way too long since Ive t another person. Please understand.
It doesnt hurt, does it? It shouldnt, because Ive cut off your nerves. This honestly its not an injury that can be healed by a human so Im practically rebuilding your body.
Im not sure if you can hear properly. But judging from how theres no particular restriction from blabbering like this, it seems your mind isnt fully back yet.
Anyway, were 80% done.
You might be flustered when you wake up because of how clear my voice is and how well it stays in your mory. Dont be surprised though. Its thanks to a small trick. Haht, I am finally getting so restrictions. It seems you are about to wake up.
This hotel has been running for a very long ti. Innurable challengers have gone through various tests, and a small few of them have gained remarkable glory but
Most of them fell to hell and I am one of them. You can say Ive beco an NPC. Its fortunate though that I didnt end up becoming a sacrifice or an experint material at least.
There is one thing I would like to request. This small trick is all because of that one thing I wanted to say. Later if you happen to gain a chance at the Room of Resurrection, or if you see Buddha, please dont forget .
I am Kim Sanghyun. Im sure I will be very handy. Im confident with my surgery skills, and Im also confident in using my brain. I have also built a lot of experiences in this hell.
Ahh. The restrictions are coming to place. Youre probably going to wake up soon. I hope you obtain honour, and I sincerely hope you rember my na, Kim Sanghyun.

I woke up.
I instinctively turned to the status screen imdiately after opening my eyes.
Day 5. We went to the pool on Day 3, so it seed that the entire Day 4 had disappeared. I must have been unconscious for a whole day.
That was quite surprising, not because a whole day had gone by, but because it had only been 1 day.
Even though I was not a dicine person, I rember myself being close to a corpse, so how was I able to wake up in just one day despite such injuries?
Besides, I wasnt feeling any pain. There were no bandages on my body and there werent any signs of surgery either.
That conversation.
I faintly recalled the words I heard in my sleep.
It definitely wasnt an overstatent that he was half the god of surgery. I also engraved the na, Kim Sanghyun into my mory. Whatever the case, he was still the one who saved my life.
Room of Resurrection, See Buddha, NPC.
I had no idea what any of them ant. But what was clear was that he called himself a loser of the hotel, and the reason he made a request like that was probably because there was a repechage of so sort in this hotel.
Of course, it ant nothing for the ti being, and I still wasnt sure what Resurrection and Buddha were about.
While checking the unbelievably normal state of my body, I stood up to look at the clock and saw it was 7:40. The al would have begun at 7 oclock, so breakfast shouldnt have ended yet.
I headed to the dining room to et everyone.
!!!
You!
K, K, Kain-oppa!
It imdiately resulted in an uproar. They couldnt hide the surprised looks on their faces, and it was soon followed by shouts full of concern.
You, you fool! Why did you get up already? Or more like, how did you even get up so quick!?
Thats right. If youre here to let us know youre okay, its enough so you should go lie back down. Dont you need a full-on rest?
I calmly told them that my body was in a mysteriously perfect state.
Thanks for worrying about , but Im really okay. See this.
Seeing suddenly do an acrobatic exercise and a handstand (all of their eyes turned into circles here), they were finally relieved.
Are you really okay? How is that even possible? I saw your arm dangling like an elastic band. How did that arm grow back to this?
First of all, please tell what happened to in your eyes.
Even if you say that, said Jinchul-hyung. We just carried you to Room 105 the day before yesterday. Actually, we were a bit hesitant. Since we all get separated apart from the al tis, we were worried you might die inside by yourself. So so of us said we should wait until alti to lay you down on the bed.
Eunsol-noona opened her mouth.
I turned it down. No matter how I saw it, you werent going to survive until al ti. But you were saying 105, 105 before you fainted so we all just went inside, thinking there might be sothing. As expected, we were put into different places the mont we headed in, and we couldnt see you, Kain.
I went to the bedroom as soon as it beca al ti, but you werent there oppa. Even though we should be able to see each other during als. Songee added.
That is why I said it was fortunate instead, This ti, it was Elena. If Kain-ssi was lying down on the floor, that would have been the worst case scenario. The fact that you disappeared instead, made us think the hotel was doing sothing in its own way.
And you just suddenly ca out of the bedroom just then. You werent there even when we were coming to the dining room until now, so you must have appeared during that gap.
They were all throwing out words at almost the sa ti so it was quite confusing.
But overall, it wasnt that complicated: they carried to Room 105 on Day 3 and I disappeared the mont they entered the room. I was nowhere to be seen for a whole day and suddenly ca to the dining room in the morning.
That was the gist of it.
From the afternoon of Day 3 to Day 5 morning.
Around 40 hours perhaps? The doctor appeared to have treated during that ti.
After so thought, I also shared everything I got to know including how I was told to head to Room 105 by Sages Advice before losing my consciousness, and the chunks of information that the doctor sohow forced into while I was asleep.
Resurrection, Buddha, NPC and others.
That is interesting. Of course, theres probably nothing here that isnt interesting.
Resurrection? Is sothing like that even possible? Even though theyre not God?
Co on, Elena. Why do you seem so surprised? You know in Room 101 well, we decided not to talk about it but didnt we all experience sothing similar to a resurrection there already?
Thats true. I guess everything really is possible in this place.
Kim Sanghyun, huh. Lets all rember that na for now. Though I dont know when that would even beco relevant to us, said Eunsol-noona.
Kain-hyung. Seungyub called . Actually, the hotels announcent changed a little while you were sleeping.
Nn?
/Welco, esteed guests, to Hotel Pioneer!
There are several guiding notifications so please refer to them. There could be an addition to the notifications and you may see them at any of the displays of the hotel.
1. Hotel Pioneer always loves our esteed guests.
However, the waiters of our hotel are very shy and only work diligently away from everyones sight.
2. A few of the elevators functions are deactivated, so please take that into consideration.
3. The hotel always respects the privacy of our guests. However, perhaps als should be shared together? Please always keep the al tis.
4. At tis there will be fairly unclean preceding visitors in guest rooms. If possible, please enter together. There will be no problems for everyone as long as one person manages to co out.
5. More and more special events will be added when our esteed guests appear bored. Arent events the best way to help you forget boredom?/
Up to Number 3 is what weve already seen. Number 1 is saying als will be prepared when were not looking, Number 2 says the elevator is broken, Number 3 is how we cant see each other apart from al tis, and Number 4 is also straight-forward. It ans one person escaping from the Cursed Room would allow everyone to survive, right? And Number 5 maybe that ans
Well, its telling us not to sit around doing nothing. If you eat and do nothing but play around without working, you seem bored so we will pour out monsters like 2 days ago. Thats what theyre saying its a threat.
Looking back, the monsters suddenly appeared on Day 1 and Day 3. Those two days
Songee slurred her words as Eunsol-noona finished it in her stead.
Those are the days when we didnt enter the Cursed Room.
Yes. There were no monsters on Day 2 when we went into the Cursed Room. Ah, there was nothing yesterday on Day 4, but thats probably because
One of you is half-dead and is in the middle of recovery so well let you off today. Thats the feeling I got.
So, now that Im healthy again
Either today, and at the latest tomorrow, we have to start that treasure-finding again. If not, then who knows? This ti, so monster could show up in our bed and slice us into pieces.
Kain. Can you check the information of the hotel with your ability?

I told them that all the rooms apart from Room 101 and Room 105 still had question marks.
Room 101. Even the na of the room itself was A Strange Family.
It felt like I sowhat saw it as soon as I entered Room 101, but more importantly, simply looking at the na made recall how absurd everything was.
After a short silence to let everyone finish thinking to themselves, Eunsol-noona opened her mouth.
Well, then we should head to Room 102 next. If we are going to go, I think we should go as soon as possible because this hotel hates seeing us take a day off. Taking yesterday off because of Kains absence might have been the hotel being lenient on us already. Kain, do you think youll be alright?
I quickly checked my body.
My body was seriously okay. In fact, it felt even better than the first day when we suddenly arrived at the hotel.
We would only be exposing ourselves to more monsters even if we were to rest a little bit more.
Ill be okay. I think we should finish our al, and head straight to Room 102.
We decided to take our belongings and head to Room 102 after the al.
Room 102 I sincerely hoped it would be at least bearable unlike the hellish Room 101.
