Housekeeping!

“This is Room 201, Room 202, Room 203. The same structure up there is divided into rooms 301 and 303. Boss!”

This strange situation is where the boss listens to the staff explain the structure of the building.

Well, what’s not strange right now? 

Rather than—.

As soon as I opened the curtains in Room 201, I was fascinated by the beautiful sea.

The sun was just setting as if it was sunset, turning the sea red.

It was a scenery that couldn’t be seen in Seoul. 

‘Dad’s dream is to live in a quiet place with a view of the sea with my daughter.’

How nice it would have been if I had come with Dad.

When I’m momentarily sentimental—.

“Isn’t it beautiful? I always think so too.”

Suddenly, the bellboy approached me.

I was about to throw the bellhop away, feeling my sentiments suddenly shattered—.

But I stopped. 

Let’s finish the tutorial and think.

Just finish the tutorial. 

I approached the large cleaning cart carried by the bellboy. There were no cleaning tools that weren’t there. 

I looked at the furniture in room 201, where the only beautiful thing was the scenery and nothing else. 

There was mold on the bed frame, white dust, and the mattress, which was left unattended without a sheet.

It was literally a mess.

“Hmm… From where to where do I have to clean this up to complete the cleaning that the quest mentioned?” 

If the cleaning mentioned in the quest is enough to open the business right away, it will take several days just to clean this room properly.

That means it takes more than a week to complete the quest!

“…Should I give up?”

At the word of giving up, the bellboy, whose white face turned even whiter, said urgently.

“B, boss~? Didn’t you receive a skill with Awakening by any chance?”

Skill? Oh, perhaps—.

“Skill window.”

I tried copying other hunters again this time.

Then the strange skill that I had seen earlier came to my eyes.

Skill: Housekeeping (C)

I opened the detail view.

Housekeeping (C)

—Fast room cleaning.

Uhm…It’s not just the name that’s strange, the details are also strange. 

If you’re Awakened, don’t you have to have decent skills like an Awakened? Why is there only one skill named Housekeeping?

Ah, I don’t know. Let’s just finish the tutorial. 

I recited it believing in the detailed explanation that the room cleaning was faster.

“Housekeeping.”

Even though I muttered a little, my face turned red.

What kind of name is this skill—.

But then, an amazing thing happened.

“The room…” 

It becomes clean. 

In an instant too. 

I laughed in vain.

“What is this… It’s not that fast.”

Of course, the room hasn’t changed much.

The peeling paint on the furniture was the same, and the old-fashioned wallpaper and carpet patterns were not changed. 

However, the curtains, which hadn’t been washed for 20 years, turned white, the mold on the mattress disappeared, and the cobwebs and white dust in the corners disappeared. 

That alone was a great change, and the bathroom, which I never wanted to enter, also changed.

The mold on each tile disappeared, and the dark lighting became brighter. I don’t know if I should call this an amenity, but anyway, the comb or toothbrush that is usually provided as an amenity was neatly wrapped in plastic. 

Although it was a skill, it seemed that cleaning tools were needed.

The dirty mop was piled up on the cleaning cart as if the bellboy had used quite a lot of the cleaning mop.

Still, new tools were created automatically, and a clean new mop was also made.

Do I have to throw away the used mop by myself?

Will this happen automatically when I level up the skill?

But even if the garbage can’t be disposed of automatically—.

“Wow….This is a skill that allows you to clean without doing anything.” 

I looked around room 201 in amazement.

But what was even more surprising was the window that appeared in front of me.

Room number: 201

Cleanliness: Good

Effect: Room guests recover 100% faster.

.

100% faster recovery?

I looked out the window with a puzzled face.

100% faster recovery is only possible in the top-notch hospital rooms where healers who reside in Hunter’s specialized hospital use their skills.

But do you use this in the room? 

“….Do you call this a waste of talent?”

“Just call it talent! The boss’s talent! Why don’t you use that talent to the fullest for the guests in your room?” 

Talent?

I frowned at the bellboy’s fuss.

I have lived a life far from the word talent.

After graduating from an ordinary human high school, I entered an ordinary but slightly minor university department.

I couldn’t become a hunter because I was evaluated as non-Awakened every time in the awakening test, and after graduating from university, I got a job at a small company and quit. 

Ordinary life.

That was me.

Even Dad, who was awakened as an S-Class hunter at the same time as the catastrophe, also attracted public attention.

And Han Woohyun, who became the youngest and became an S-Class hunter.

It was a completely different life.

If I had to ask, wouldn’t it be more suitable to say that Han Woohyun and my Dad are “talented”? 

Not someone like me.

“I don’t have any talent. It’s my dream to just live moderately.” 

Even though it’s embarrassing because the Awakener’s skill is like this, I’m thankful I didn’t get dragged into the dungeon because I became a combat-type hunter. 

If it’s a dungeon—.

If it’s a hunter— I hate it very much.

But, well, a skill like this might be useful.

I liked this situation a little bit.

I want to clean Dad’s old colleague uncle and auntie’s room with a lot of skills. 

I hope everyone recovers quickly.

“Are you smiling now?”

At that time, the bellboy pointed his finger at the corner of my mouth, which had gone up a lot.

“I, I’m not!” 

“Ey, I think I’m right. Hehe.”

No matter how I look at it, the way he stomps his feet with a smile doesn’t look like a spirit, it looks like a dog. 

“Ah, enough, I like the automatic cleaning system. Should I try a hotel instead of a real cafe…?” 

“Do it! Do it! Let’s stay at the hotel for the rest of our lives, boss!”

The bellboy shouted at me, his eyes bulging with anticipation like steamed buns.

It looked kind of cute, but I pointed firmly at the bellboy, determined not to fall for it.

“Excuse me, why us? The cleaning works automatically, but will I use the staff…?”

“….!” 

The bellboy turned white as if he hadn’t thought about that.

I shook my head as I watched his eyes fill with tears.

“Let’s start with Room 202. Let’s finish the tutorial first!”

I pulled the cart and walked out into the hallway.

Ignore the bellboy muttering this behind his back.

“Boss… I’m scared…”

* * *

Rooms 202 and 203 were similar in terms of beautiful scenery.

The view was as if the sea was in the room, probably because it was right in front of the sea.

But what about this place at this price?

But I can’t believe this kind of place comes at this price.

As expected, I’m glad I chose Youngchun-myeon.

I thought so, forgetting for a moment about the strange awakening that happened to me and the existence that I didn’t know if it was a monster, a spirit, or a dog attached to this building.

However, the ‘housekeeping’ skill, which I used to enjoy while immersed in the scenery, gradually slowed down as I went up to the third floor.

I’m sure it wasn’t like this at first—.

As I went to rooms 301 and 302, sweat began to form on my forehead.

After cleaning up to that point, I felt like my body was draining all my energy.

Before entering Room 303, I had no choice but to ask the bellboy for help.

“I’m sorry…Do you have anything to drink?”

I think I can move if I drink water.

“I have MacX MoX GolX, would you like some?” 

How do foreigners know that…? 

Anyway, I nodded. 

I sat down in the hallway, watching the bellboy hurry down to the first floor for a while.

I felt exhausted from using too many skills.

When the Hunter used the skill, the mana that had been accumulating in their body was used. 

‘Is that how it feels…’

The bellboy mumbled as he handed me a paper cup filled with mixed coffee.

“Boss… I’m surprisingly useful… Can you please use me… I’ll do anything.”

“How much are you going to get paid?”

“…I’m a spirit, so I don’t get paid.” 

Ah, he said he was a spirit. 

So will there be unpaid workers? 

It’s good, but what if I get reported to the Ministry of Employment and Labor?

I took a paper cup and drank the mixed coffee in one gulp, feeling uncomfortable.

The strong caffeine and the strong sweetness suddenly came out.

Oh, I heard he was a spirit, but isn’t he good at adjusting the water in the mixed coffee? 

But it seemed like this coffee was more than just good coffee.

A notification window suddenly popped up in front of my eyes.

You drank ‘Bellboy’s Mixed Coffee (C).’

Mana regeneration rate is increased by 120%.

…? 

As my eyes widened, the bellboy smiled brightly and said,

“I told you. I have a lot of use, boss. Hehe. You’re going to use me, right?”

No… It’s very useful, isn’t it?

I suddenly felt a surge of energy in my body and got up from my seat.

I closed and opened my fists and turned my head.

As expected, it’s not an illusion.

Really, the feeling of exhaustion was recovering quickly.

I made eye contact with the grinning bellboy.

An employee like this is very useful.

But I tried to answer calmly.

“…First, let’s wait and see.”

“Are you giving me a chance?! Huh! Thank you. Thank you!” 

I walked into room 303, ignoring the burdensome greeting bellboy.

After some time, the feeling of a sluggish body disappeared completely.

Then I put on my housekeeping skills again.

“Housekeeping.”

And at that moment, a window appeared in front of my eyes.

Congratulations! You have completed the tutorial quest! Please claim your reward!

I received the reward.

100G of Market Gold has been deposited as a quest reward.

I turned on my status window, confirmed that the market gold had been deposited at the bottom, and closed the window.

It’s really deposited.

Just in case, I came down to the first floor where my cell phone was located, turned on the market status window again, and quickly transferred 100G to my bank account again.

And I opened the bank app with my cell phone.

“It’s true, this is—?” 

The balance, which had been drastically reduced due to the purchase of this building, added 1.1 million won, not 1 million won as if the dollar exchange rate had been applied.

Does that mean that I really earned 1.1 million won from my skills?

When I didn’t even run a dangerous raid in the dungeon or deal with the monsters that came out of the dungeon? 

I swallowed my saliva.

This is something dangerously sweet.

I looked at the amount on the account over and over again.

But nothing has changed.

It was real. 

There are some Awakeners who can make money without going into dungeons or killing monsters.

And that’s— just me.

But then—.

Tring!

Another window popped up.

Congratulations!

A ‘Random Skill Draw Ticket (Hidden) x1’ has arrived as a reward for completing the first quest.

Would you like to use it?

Now I’m even looking forward to it a little bit.
