The Silla Seoul Hotel
Soo Yin has returned to work at the hotel today.
She actually was going with Dae Hyun. But on the way, Soo Yin asked to come down first and chose to use a taxi to get to the hotel.
Soo Yin would be in trouble if everyone at the hotel found her out.
Soo Yin was brewing a cup of coffee in the pantry, glancing at the clock that still shows seven in the morning.
She was still able to relax a little.
"Soo Yin, where have you been these few days?" Said Jean, who had just arrived.
"Hi, Jean," Soo Yin replied.
"You know, I miss you so much. I don't know anyone, other than you." Jean pursed his lips.
"Sorry, I wasn't well for the past few days, so I can't go to work," Said Soo Yin while sipping the warm coffee in her hand.
"Why didn't you call me? Your number wasn't even active," said Jean.
"I forgot to activate it. Did you go to the movies last Saturday?" Soo Yin asked.
Soo Yin and Jean were planning to go to the movies together. But, Dae Hyun made all of her plans fail.
"Hmmm, I went there myself, and it was unfortunate. Everyone came in pairs," Said Jean with a sad face.
"Let's watch it again next Saturday! I'll buy tickets for both of us," Soo Yin asked as she wanted to get rid of his sadness.
"Really? Take Jae-Hwa too. He intended to come yesterday, but because you weren't there, he chose to be alone in the middle of the city," Said Jean, bringing his face closer to Soo Yin's ear.
"I'm not sure if Jae-Hwa wants to come with us," Said Soo Yin while narrowing her eyes.

"Jae-Hwa will definitely like it if you ask him. It seems he likes you," said Jean.
Soo Yin coughed at Jean's words. Jae-Hwa did ask her to go to the movies several times, but Soo Yin always refused.
There was no time to relax when her father was in the hospital.
"Well, let's talk about it later. It's time for us to work," Said Jean while looking at the clock on the wall.
Soo Yin nodded while finishing her coffee. First, she changed her clothes, took the usual tools she used from brooms, mops, and others.
Soo Yin walked and passed the emergency stairs as the worker lift was under repair. She was breathless when she got to the fifth floor.
She then laid down on the bed in the hotel room.
Soo Yin played with her phone instead of cleaning the room right away after the fatigue slowly disappeared.
She put the headset on, listening to music. She then took some photos that she thought were pretty good to upload them on social media.
The door suddenly opened. Manager Han tried to calm himself down so that his emotions didn't explode.
"Soo Yin!" Manager Han shouted.
Soo Yin was so busy that she didn't listen to Manager Han's screams.
The manager was furious, but he still tried to calm himself down.
"Soo Yin!" Manager Han shouted again, patting her on the shoulder.
The girl jumped in shock, causing her cellphone to fall out. She just took a photo of the window with the great outside view.
"My phone!" Soo Yin shouted, poking her head out the window.
It was a pity that her phone must have been crushed to the ground.
She turned her body to face Manager Han, grumbling. She wanted to yell at the man in front of her.

"Soo Yin, so this is what you've been doing all this time?" Manager Han shouted, losing his temper.
Soo Yin covered her ears, hearing Han's voice almost breaking her eardrums.
"You startled me! I ... I just took a break," said Soo Yin defensively, even though she had been doing nothing.
"Look! You even still put the tools here," Said Manager Han as he kicked the bucket.
"Okay, I'll clean things up right away." Soo Yin grabbed a broom then lazily did her job.
Since her childhood, Soo Yin used to live well and had never done household chores like this.
"Once again you do like this, be prepared to be fired!" Said Manager Han while squinting.

Ars Magica
Our vision comes back into focus. Our eyes, while being able to perceive the immediate surroundings, still leave us with our minds uncomprehending towards what is actually occurring. Sure, there are definitive things that we can focus on, like the fact that we're either out upon the open sea or the open ocean, there not being much of a difference with no land in sight, as well as the fact that we appear to be upon a haphazardly constructed metal boat, whose seams are barely able to keep a hold of themselves in the crashing waves. However, that does not let us understand what exactly is causing the waves in the first place. If we were to rewind time, we'd find ourselves upon a calm sea under a peaceful sky with the only difference, being a small whirlpool that would be the precursor towards this uproar around the boat. Lightning flashes in the sky, with no clouds being near, and anyone actually manning the boat has either died towards the cause of the smashing tides in the first place, or are fighting amongst the flashes of lightning, all while trying not to become devoured, demolished, and utterly decimated by the beast roiling in the whirling waves. To better understand exactly what is happening here, there is one singular event that needs to be understood, that needs to be explained, and that is the arrival of a creature named Dave. Stepping back from current events and going towards this creature's first appearance in the world, we begin to hear the sound of water slowly dripping across rocky ground. The cavern is utterly silent except for this one constant, its cause feeding channels downwards, sloping towards cracks in the rubble along the floor from broken stalagmites and stalactites. And there, lying on top of something which had fallen over recently, judging from its cracks, is a person, the creature named Dave. His form is fast asleep, either from the impact or from an intoxication, judging from the smell upon its breath. A bright light suffuses into it for a second, giving life towards the pale skin, before it slowly dies down back to the comfortable black of the cave that it's within. Before this moment in time, Dave did not exist in the physical world. At least, not in the reality that he finds himself born into. We do not know whether or not his existence is simply a cosmic joke, or something that is being played out on purpose. All that we do know, is that one moment, the body was not in the cave, and simply formed in the next. The actual earliest time that we know Dave exists, is the interpolation of the memories of J-209, which we'll begin looking into shortly to gain context towards the coming narrative that is being written and hastily trying to keep itself written. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Warning: This story has several things which might turn its readers away. The first is that this story has shifting points of perspective. Don't worry about that previous sentence too much though, as the main character will always have a first person perspective associated with them. However, any other character from which we're viewing the story from will either be in third-person, as we are not necessarily in their shoes at the moment, or in first person, given that the narrator is an actual physical presence within the story. For the most part, chapters will be self-contained with their perspectives, so there will not be an abundance of switching perspectives within the same chapter. The most that an average reader would have to worry about is the fact that perspectives can switch between chapters. The second thing is that the main character is a bit on the 'special' side of things. He's not exactly mentally there most of the time, so there will be some times that his personality or his thoughts do not actively align with his actions. The third, and final thing of importance, is the fact that past the first couple of chapters, nothing has been planned in advance. There are arcs and plots that I want to do, want to implement, or have already been set into motion from our main character's introduction to the world, but the method that I use for my story writing and generating leads towards a bit more random chance being enabled. Basically...there's a lot of dice rolling behind the scenes. To not complicate the story further than its regular LitRPG elements, the rolls will not be publicly available. However, there will be knowledge within the author's notes on whether or not there were positive or negative critical rolls that had occurred within the chapter. You have been warned. Updates: Mondays & Fridays (Schedule permitting) Typical Chapter Length: (2,000-3,000)
