Upon receiving Yu-jin’s call, Secretary Park hurried over.

Even though I don’t know where she was, it’s surprising how quickly she came.

Indeed, professional secretaries seem to be different somehow.

By the way, I told the slime trapped in my soul to shut up for now.

Since Asa can’t communicate with two people at once.

“You called?”

Secretary Park glanced at Young-hee, who was sleeping under a blanket, with a mysterious look in her eyes.

“Something has come up.”

Hmm, speaking informally to an adult is uncomfortable.

The speech of a chaebol heiress like Yu-jin, born and raised in Dongbangyeuijiguk, feels a bit stiff.

“It’s a bit long to explain-”

“It’s okay.”

She was about to explain what had happened, but Secretary Park spoke first.

“You don’t need to tell me all the details. I just follow the young master’s orders.”

No, I wish she had listened.

I had put together a plausible story to justify myself.

It was a convincing explanation that anyone would understand.

I had struggled to make it really convincing.

“It’s funny to say it’s not necessary, right?”

Once Asa misses the timing to speak, it’s hard to talk.

You never know what topic to start with and lead the conversation to where you want.

Anyway, if she understands, that should be enough.

Let’s hope there will be an opportunity to use this story someday and remember it.

“Anyway, as you can see, the situation is like this. I want to borrow a car to take Young-hee.”

“Where should I pick her up?”

“That’s… Wait, where should I go?”

I’ve never asked Young-hee where she lives.

We haven’t become close enough to exchange such personal information.

But it’s not appropriate to wake someone who fainted and ask where they live right away.

“I’ll have to wait until she regains consciousness.”

Leaving her lying in the cinema was not a good idea.

It may look comfortable at first glance, but it’s just a table after all.

In the first place, leaving her in the cinema is a nuisance.

I have to take her out of here for now.

“Is there a place nearby where we can rest?”

With confidence and a smile, Secretary Park nodded.

“I know a place well. You can solve the problem there.”

Oh, indeed a capable adult.

Dealing with such a confusing situation so calmly.

Really cool. Impressive! Trustworthy!

“Then please.”

Moving the pillow and blanket, I carefully turned Young-hee over.

“Ugh.”

She let out a short groan as her body shook.

It looks quite peaceful like this.

Does she know that she was taken by some strange monster earlier?

“No, maybe it’s better if she doesn’t remember.”

Holding hands, acting cute, even kissing.

Keeping that embarrassing memory intact?

There’s a high chance it will become awkward and distant.

After all the effort to make her a friend, I can’t lose her over something so absurd.

“I’ll carry her.”

“It’s okay. She’s light.”

Despite appearances, this body took down an ogre in one blow.

Maybe I should worry more about this small body not bursting.

Wait, it should be fine, right?

There won’t be any accidents due to not being able to control strength, right?

“Just… it’s not about that.”

Secretary Park groaned softly.

What’s the problem with just carrying a girl?

“If the successor of Heukcheon carries a girl, it might look ridiculous.”

Wait, what’s all this fuss about Heukcheon anyway?

Of course, I roughly know it’s a significant organization, but does that mean I can’t take care of a friend?

Such useless traditions are unnecessary.

If you worry about every little thing like that, how do you live?

“I don’t care about those views.”

Secretary Park’s eyes widened.

“I’m sorry! I misspoke.”

He deeply bowed his waist.

“Yes, the young master’s words are always right!”

He thought he needed to demonstrate the power of the Black Heaven.

That way, no one would dare to underestimate the Black Heaven.

How shallow and short-sighted his thoughts were.

A true strong person doesn’t need to show off their strength.

A male lion on the savannah roars fiercely, threatening weaker animals.

But an elephant simply stands still.

No need to assert oneself; nobody dares to look down on them.

Being of the Black Heaven does not make one strong.

It is strong, therefore it is the Black Heaven.

Since when did he become so obsessed with showing his strength to others?

Paying attention to others’ opinions and doubting the lord’s choices.

In the past, he would have had to sacrifice himself in that position!

Yujin made him realize that with just a single word.

“Indeed, becoming the true successor of the Black Heaven.”

Even at a young age, she imparted wisdom to him.

Secretary Park resolved to devote himself to him once again.

“Then I will guide you to the car immediately.”

“Ah, okay.”

Watching this, Yujin’s expression turned sad.

“Oh, even though I thought we had become somewhat close, things got serious with just a word. I hope I didn’t overstep my bounds?”

Indeed, being in a position of power is uncomfortable.

Yujin followed behind Secretary Park, lost in thought.

****

Now, the black limousine he had grown accustomed to.

First, he helped Yeonghee lie down and then sat beside her as they departed smoothly.

They soon arrived at a hotel.

“Oh! Young Master! Thank you for coming like this!”

A man in a black suit ran over and respectfully bowed his waist.

The person bowing was no ordinary person.

Behind him, other staff members also maintained a 90-degree bow.

Though not as difficult to count as the rooms in a mansion, the number here was certainly not small either.

If exaggerated, one might think all the hotel staff had come out.

“As I instructed, everything is prepared, right?”

Secretary Park addressed the manager as a matter of course.

Of course, the manager did not take offense at this.

While this hotel was officially a regular hotel, it was undeniably a company under the Black Heaven.

In other words, Secretary Park’s boss was the chairman.

And that’s not all.

Secretary Park was the former aide to the chairman and the current secretary to the heir.

Not only was she capable, but there was also a legend that she wiped out an organization opposing the Black Heaven overnight.

Her name was renowned in the world of darkness.

“Of course, everything has been taken care of. All guests have been escorted out, and the facilities have been thoroughly cleaned! We always strive to provide the best service.”

“Surely you wouldn’t consider giving the room used by the guest to the young master? If so, this hotel would have to be prepared to vanish into thin air today.”

“Of course not! Our suite rooms are exclusively reserved for the Black Heaven’s VVIPs. We have managed them meticulously, ensuring not a speck of dust remains, so you can visit anytime without any issues.”

The manager explained smoothly, like flowing water.

Secretary Park nodded in satisfaction.

It was a sudden contact, but this was the Black Heaven.

And the recipient was none other than Yujin, the sole heir.

This level of treatment was only natural.

“Young Master, please come inside.”

“Ah, okay.”

Of course, Yujin, unaware of these circumstances, was quite bewildered.

He simply needed a place to rest until Yeonghee woke up.

Like a hospital bed or a park bench.

But to suddenly bring him to a hotel like this was unexpected.

“Do wealthy people really use hotels even for resting?”

Well, with plenty of money, there’s nothing they can’t do.

If the circumstances are right, a hotel would indeed be comfortable.

Soft beds, cozy surroundings, and guaranteed safety.

Although he only needed a brief rest, was it necessary to go this far?

“And what’s with this treatment?”

Secretary Park made the call after the car had already left.

It’s been just a simple word that the Lord is coming.

That was about 30 minutes ago.

But so many people are here to welcome him?

Is this the dignity of a golden spoon…?

It’s kind of impressive in a new light.

“I tried to get as close as possible, but I’m not sure if it’s satisfying…”

Still, he bows his head slightly, worried if it’s not enough.

“No, it’s enough.”

It feels almost too much.

The interior of the hotel didn’t seem extravagant but rather radiated a certain light.

It felt like a luxurious hotel you’d see in a drama or a movie theater.

As someone who had only been to motels, Yujin, couldn’t quite adapt.

“There are no guests except us. Still, it’s bright so it’s not scary.”

After quickly getting off the elevator, Yujin received guidance from a staff member.

Entering the room, Yujin suppressed a wry smile.

“Wow, there’s a world like this.”

It wasn’t a joke; one room was bigger than his previous life’s house.

The luxurious bed was almost the size of a studio apartment.

The facilities were all top-notch, with no sign of human presence.

Even if it was said to be completed yesterday, it was believable.

Who sleeps in a room like this? A king? A noble?

Thinking such thoughts, he realizes he’s here.

“The world of the really wealthy is enormous.”

Is it okay to use a place like this just to rest briefly?

He even feels a sense of guilt.

Having entered, Yujin laid Younghee on the bed.

She looks comfortable, so she’ll probably sleep well.

She won’t stay up all night like this.

“Then, I’ll take my leave, Lord.”

“Where will you be?”

“I’ll wait in another room. Please call me anytime if you need anything.”

He was about to suggest going together but stopped.

How surprised would Younghee be if she woke up and found no one around?

Opening her eyes, if she suddenly found herself in such a luxurious hotel, she would have immediately jumped out the window to escape.

“Sleep well.”

Younghee is sleeping soundly without any intention of waking up.

She wouldn’t even notice if someone carried her.

Sitting quietly in the chair, he began to feel bored.

“Hey, say something.”

– Huh? Wasn’t it you who told me not to talk?

“That’s when no one is around. Since I’m bored now, entertain me with some conversation.”

There was a moment of silence at those words.

As if asking what nonsense this was, the slime spoke.

– What nonsense. Isn’t now the busiest time?

“What do you mean?”

– When a man and a woman come to a hotel, there’s only one thing to do, isn’t there?

Yujin blinked, not understanding what was being said.

Frustrated, the slime shouted as if exasperated.

– Attack! Have sex! Strip off your clothes and gently twist your nipples!

No, is this guy crazy?
