"Ji-Hoon, pour another shot for the manager."
"Yes sir." Ji-hoon stood up, his feet still a little wobbly from all the alcohol in his system. As he leaned to pour another drink for his senior.
How long has his life gone on like this, even on a company outing, he is the designated errand boy.
Ding !! His mind buzzed as he felt a sharp pain in the back of his head.
He felt a little lightheaded and the bottle wobbled, alcohol spilled all over his boss's clothes. His eyes closed and he could feel his consciousness slipping not before he saw the anger in the managers eyes.
*slam*
----------
*what should we do ?*
*Is he the choosen one ?*
*No, we messed up the latitudes and longitude of the selected Jihoon and he has the same nam, and was present on the scene so he got transported.*
*Does he have any experience in running a shop?*
*Nothing like that come up in his profile.*
Jihoon ears buzz due to all the chatter around him, what are these people talking about?
He opened his eyes still feeling a little hangover from all that alcohol, he sat up to see that he us in a vast, pale white room that don't seem to have any doors or windows.
He looked up to see multiple small humonoid robot around, looking at him like an animal in zoo.
where the fuck is he ?
"Hello host, welcome to Dimensional store registery department. Your registration request for a store is now approved. " The humonoid talked in extremely cheerful tone, trying to pretend everything was very normal.
"I didn't apply for any shop registration. " he replied grogily, still half believing that this was some creepy dream.
"Well !! As you are already here and we can't let you go unless you sign the deed so can you just run a shop here?"
The robot fumbled, Jihoon wasn't sure if robots can even look this embarrassed.
"I want to go back home!" Whatever was the problem with these robot,it wasn't his, he wanted to ho home.
" you can go back home for sure, this is not a life binding job it will be normal 9 to 5 and you will get a fixed salary and commission on the basis of how successful the shop is." The robots looked at him, as if trying to bribe him with all the possible benefits and he don't want to accept it but it was working.
"What if it flops ?"
"If the shop flops, i.e if it is not able to break even within two month it will be closed and your memory of interest dimensions will be erased." The voice was mater of fact-ly.
"Then just erase it now, and let me go?!"
"We can't do that, it's not allowed."
"Okay! Whatever, what kind of shop is this?" Even talking to humans is so difficult and then, these are robots that are pre-programmed, it is even more difficult to argue with them.
"You can select for yourself, these days dimensional convenience store, Diners and blacksmith and weapons store are all rage."
"Umm.. we need it to flop... so what about pleasure shop? Is there any adult toy shops here ?" His eyes glinted with a barely concealed mischief.
"There are toys available for kids in convenience stores and some families buy small weapons as toys for their kids."
"I am not talking about that, well if you don't know then it's okay the shop I'll open will be called *Dimensional Pleasure Shop*."
Ding!!
Name registered– Dimensional Pleasure Shop.
Owner- Han Ji-hoon
*hello host I am your personal system D.I.M.S ( Dimensional Interface & Management System) you can call me Dimmy."
"Well hello! Can I go home now?"
The system looked a little weirded out by request, "don't you want to see your shop, arrange inventory or decorate it, if we are giving you salary we want you to work diligently."
"Well, I am going for market research, you see I am not a shop keeper so I need to go and look for what kind of decoration and inventory to put in my shop." He pulled some random excuse.
And that did the trick, the system nodded his little humonoid head as if agreeing , where should I send you ?
He hurriedly gave his address scared that he might change his mind anytime.
It took him less than a second as he returned back to his house, for a second he want to believe that everything that happened was a nightmare, but that Ding!! Ding!! In his mind was enough to make him believe that whatever happened wasn't a dream.
He walked to his bedside, fell face first and slept like a log.
By the time he woke up, it was already evening.
He stayed sprawled on the bed as he opened his phone, it has already been two days since the day of his mess up in company event.
Wtf !! Wasn't it only one day ?
Host the time flow is different in different dimensions, so it is normal for such differences.
He scrolled through multiple calls and passively aggressive emails by his supervisor.
Well he was planning to leave anyways, should he just use this system to pay his contract breaking fees."will you pay off my resignation fees, it is because of you that I have to resign."
The system looked at him blinking slowly, "I am not sure, this is the first time such an event happened so I have to consult higher management, I'll get back to you in an hour. "
Ji-hoon have learned enough from past experience and stopped the system before it dissappear ,"give me the time in this dimension terms.."
"Umm.. about a day ?."
Sure ... you go ahead. I'll do my market research.
Host, remember the products and specific discription you need as we have to have build the inventory from scratch.
Why can't we just take from here.
That's not allowed.
Sure... I'll do that.
