I Became the Academy’s Kibitz Villain

Chapter 53: Miracle And Patriotism Island, Ulleung (2)

The car quickly drove along the Ulleung Island Coastal Road, which had 4 lanes, and soon arrived at the destination.

“We’ve arrived.”

“… It’s impressive.”

The pension built on Ulleung Island was designed with the best materials and top designers to satisfy the eyes of wealthy individuals from overseas.

As with most, especially this pension directly contracted by Gyeolsa, I heard that tremendous resources had been invested.

Originally, the pension had no relation to Gyeolsa.

However, I had inquired online about a pension in Ulleung Island with hot spring water, and as soon as the Chief came and checked it herself, it became the property of Gyeolsa.

“The owner and the employees don’t know who you are, sir. From now on, we will treat you as a guest.”

“Is that okay?”

“Yes. It’s not a boast, but all those who book at our pension are wealthy. You don’t need to worry.”

The only person who knows that I belong to Gyeolsa is this pension manager, ‘President Jang’.

“If it makes you uncomfortable, I’ll introduce you to the owner as an associate of the ‘big hand’ who invested in the pension. You came to take a break and inspect the site as a company manager.”

He had already successfully operated the pension, received help from Gyeolsa’s experts, and quickly succeeded in remodeling. He was now operating the pension very successfully among other pensions as a super premium pension.

‘It’s not wrong. I found this place on the internet, and Gyeolsa decided to invest.’

I never imagined that the pension I saw in the photos would change into such a luxurious mansion.

Since it was my first time seeing the real thing, and I only saw what it looked like before it became Gyeolsa’s pension, I ended up facing a super-luxurious mansion that was supposedly a pension.

“Is this really a pension?”

“Of course, sir.”

Even though it looked like a garden made by a rich man on a hill in California, I had no choice but to believe it when the manager himself said it was a pension.

“When you need to call the manager, you can press the phone or the indoor interphone. This here is Sylvia. She will solve any inconvenience for you.”

“Hello, sir. My name is Sylvia.”

“Wow.”

A tall blonde woman who looked like she came from Northern Europe greeted me in a maid’s uniform that seemed suitable for work in a palace.

“May I ask what country you’re from?”

“I am… from Norway.”

“Sylvia. You don’t need to do that.”

“Is that so? I am from Norway. Nice to meet you, sir.”

Her slightly awkward Korean changed into fluent Korean in an instant.

Sylvia shrugged as if it were natural, and I thought she was of some Korean mixed heritage.

“There are some Korean guests who like white women speaking Korean a bit awkwardly. Please understand, sir.”

“Ah, yes….”

“This is everyday life in Ulleung Island. Elite men and women from abroad work here. Sylvia, where was that place you said you worked before…?”

“I worked as a hotelier at the K Hotel in London. It was a hotel classified as a 5-star hotel.”

“Wow.”

I started to feel dizzy from the bombardment of patriotism once again.

“Is the K Hotel in London the one where overseas leaders often go?”

“Do you know it? Yes, that’s the place. I worked there as a hotelier for 10 years and then came to Korea to become a hotelier at Ulleung Island.”

“Wow….”

As Korea became a great country, the nature of foreign workers naturally began to change.

The so-called third world?

All disappeared.

[Jamar, you’re doing great! You can work harder and better than Peter.]

[Oh, I know Jamar is good at his job! But Peter speaks English well!]

[I also speak English well! We are also an English-speaking area! You’re discriminating because my skin color is dark! The boss is bad!]

[Oh… I’m sorry, Mr. Han.]

[No! Peter has nothing to apologize for! Ahem. Jamar. I’m sorry, but you’re fired.]

[Boss! Peter is trying to absorb mana in Korea and return to the US! Don’t be fooled!]

[Oh, No… I’m going to marry a Korean woman and live here. I like bulgogi.]

[I even devour doenjang! Jamar, I ate the meat the boss gave me deliciously! Boss, I’ve built a long ‘jeong’ with Jamar!]

[Ah… I’m sorry, Peter. Koreans really have a lot of ‘jeong’….]

[My grandfather participated in the Korean War.]

[Ah, then it has to be Peter! Sorry, Jamar. We’re trying to repay the favor of our ancestors. It’s absolutely not because Peter is white!]

The Bob, who picked apples on the farm, the Sam, who fed mackerel to tunas on the ship, and the Hassan, who moved goods in the factory, all changed to James, Adam, Michael, and Samuel.

[Are you getting married to a German woman? No, you’re coming from Sweden to marry a Korean man? Nonsense.]

[Surprisingly, they say hundreds of inquiries about marriage immigration pour in every day. Many blond beauties come to study in Korea and want to marry a university student.]

[No, what in the world, does this make sense? Why are they doing international marriages with European women?]

[You know the answer. Why are you asking?]

The women were the same.

[Hello, I’m Christine. I passed level 1 in the Korean proficiency test and have a perfect score certification in Advanced Korean History.]

[Do you know about Taesaja?]

[These days, they verify with this instead of Taesaja. ‘Muo gabjagi myeosa’…]

[Teacher Baekgyeol’s rice cake pounder.]

[Three thousand palace ladies’ chair king.]

[I believe you. You are a prepared international student. What’s the purpose of coming to Korea?]

[I’m a daughter-in-law.]

[Welcome to Joseon, stranger.]

In places where there were many non-Koreans, Europeans gradually started to take their place one by one. They gradually began to whiten the ratio of foreigners in this land.

[White people, get out! All of those who came to suck the honey from this blessed land, go back home!!]

[Do you happen to know the phrase ‘If it’s to be, it better be a pink skirt’? Now is the age of ‘If it’s to be, it better be Anglo-Saxon.’]

To receive the blessing of this power from the land known as South Korea.

The same went for Sylvia.

“Ms. Sylvia, are you perhaps an ability user?”

“Regrettably, I am not an ability user. However, I do hope to give birth to one someday. Since the boss said to feel comfortable speaking with you, I’ll share a bit more casually.”

Sylvia looked towards the far west with slightly tired eyes.

“I’m saving up a lot of money here to go back home, marry my childhood friend, and have a ‘Pumpkin Baby’ at this pension. That’s my dream.”

“……Why a pumpkin, of all things?”

“Because if it’s Ulleung Island, it’s pumpkin taffy. Anyway, it would be great to go from conception to childbirth here. The best thing is to accumulate tenure here and go to Sejong Island… But it’s not easy for foreigners like me to get into Sejong Island.”

“…….”

Had I been cooped up at home too much?

Was it because I was stuck at home watching the movies and animations of this world or because I was in what they call the slums of Seoul in Korea?

“Only ability users or their associates can enter Sejong Island. For a commoner like me, Ulleung Island is the limit.”

“But aren’t you quite an elite, Ms. Sylvia?”

“That’s kind of you to say, but there are still many restrictions for foreign women who are not ‘daughters-in-law’.”

Looking at Neo Busan and Neo Ulleung, which could be considered the epitome of this nationalistic light novel world, I felt like my hands and feet were twisted, and my heart was shrinking.

“…I understand. I’ll let you know if I need anything. I’d like to rest in my room for a while. Is that okay?”

“Of course. I’ll show you the way.”

I followed Sylvia as she guided me into the pension.

The pension, full of Modern Hellenistic designs mixed with exotic and oriental elements, could comfortably accommodate about six people.

To be honest, there was enough space for not only six but ten, and exaggerating a little, even more than 20 people could easily hang out here.

There were several rooms and even an indoor pool villa in one of them.

In the Earth where I used to live, you’d have to spend over a million won in group bookings or even more money to rent such a pool villa.

Now, I was using such a place ‘for free.’

Well, it was more like I paid upfront with my card, and the company reimbursed me, but in effect, I could use this spacious place freely.

“My head hurts.”

I came to Ulleung to rest for the first time, and my head was now more complicated after seeing a feast of nationalistic fervor.

I knew about it.

But just ‘knowing’ about it and actually experiencing it are entirely different stories.

“…sigh.”

I felt dizzy.

I just wanted to get into the hot spring and rest.

Luckily, on one side of the pension was a hot spring, similar to an open-air bath, where steam was rising, and you could see the outdoor view.

“Wow….”

The protagonist found this very spring of magic power while exploring Ulleung Island with the heroines.

As soon as I removed my clothes and entered, I felt mana filling my body.

Personally, I would like to keep living here.

I was about to sink into the hot spring water when…

“Huh?”

My phone rang.

It was someone I knew.

“Hello?”

[Ah, Ji-hwan. Can you talk?]

It was Snow White.
