The Homemaker of the Dungeon

Chapter 21



Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 21

* * *

I felt like I was floating in the air. But that was only for a moment. The body fell to the floor under the pull of gravity.

“Aaaah!”

Heena wriggled her limbs and eventually chose to cover her face with both arms. And I prepared myself for the shock that would hit my butt.

‘…uh?’

But even after a few seconds, no shock was felt. Instead, with a loud crashing sound, I was held in someone’s firm embrace.

Heena instinctively pressed her nose against her chest and sniffed. It smelled faintly of soap, as if it had just been washed.

‘It smells good…’

Heena came to her senses after hearing a calm voice coming from above her head.

“Are you okay?”

Kang Jin-hyeon asked as he slowly lowered Hee-na in his arms.

“Uh…”

Heena’s face turned bright red.

Sniffing and sniffing the chest of the man who accepted her safely… No matter how thoughtless it was, wasn’t this such a shameless act?

“Thank you. Hunter Jinhyeon Kang. Hunter, are you okay?”

Heena hurriedly escaped from Jinhyeon Kang’s arms and looked at him. He looked just as calm as usual.

Thanks to this, Heena’s heart, which had been pounding mercilessly, calmed down a bit.

“I am okay. By the way, where is the piece you were cleaning earlier? “I think this situation happened because of that.”

“That piece of metal? “Ah, is this what you’re talking about?”

Heena opened her clenched hand. A piece of silver metal was sparkling and shining on the palm of my hand. I looked closely and item information appeared.

<Clean □□piece of □□ (□): A piece of □□ made clean with a special touch. I’m not sure how it will be used yet, but maybe it will come in handy someday? (Owner: Heena Lee)>

The description of □□’s sculpture had changed. However, the explanation of what this was was still very inadequate.

Plus…

“It has become a bound item.”

Kang Jin-hyeon spoke as if muttering. Heena tilted her head at the unfamiliar term.

“It’s a bound item?”

“Is your name Lee Hee-na?”

Heena curled her lips at the sound of her own name coming out of nowhere.

“yes. “That’s right.”

“Do you see Heena Lee’s name attached to the item description? This is a characteristic of a bound item, meaning it is owned by a specific person. “This cannot now be transferred to another person.”

Heena gasped at Jinhyeon Kang’s explanation.

“What should I do if an item found while raiding a dungeon belongs to me?”

“It has already happened, so there is nothing we can do about it. I have no choice but to report it as is. Just put it in your inventory.”

“Yes…”

Heena obediently placed the ‘piece of □□’ in her inventory as he told her.

I was uncomfortable thinking that I had something I didn’t know what it was, but I couldn’t help it when I heard that it was a belonging item.

‘What’s going on?’

Heena sighed and looked around. It was an unfamiliar place. The blazing sun was setting over the gray wilderness.

“Where is this place, anyway?”

“It’s like a dungeon. I don’t know why, but it seems like it moved here after the rust on the iron piece was cleaned off. And if this is a dungeon, we will have to find the gate and go out.”

Kang Jin-hyeon reviewed the situation step by step and organized it. It was surprisingly calm.

Even Heena, who would have been shocked by this situation, calmed down.

“Then where can I go outside?”

When asked, the system window responded instead of Kang Jin-hyeon.

‘What is this again?’

Heena looked at the system window with her eyes wide open.

A skill I had never seen before was cast out of nowhere, and something like a square map appeared in the air. It looked like a crude treasure map drawn by a child.

“Is there a problem? “Is there something wrong with the system?”

Kang Jin-hyeon quickly noticed Hee-na’s abnormality. In response to his questioning, Heena suddenly explained what she saw.

“A skill I had never seen before was cast, and a map-like thing appeared in front of my eyes.”

“Map… you mean? What does it look like specifically?”

“It looks like a roughly drawn medicine… Wait a minute. “Please check the skill description.”

Heena shifted her gaze and checked the skill description.

<Where is my home (D): Shows the location of ‘Home Sweet Home’ in the spacious dungeon. Boss mobs and gate locations are bonuses. Active skill.>

So, ‘Where is my home’ was said to be a kind of navigation-like skill. It served as a map to help you find Heena’s house, which is hidden somewhere in the dungeon.

“What kind of skill is Lee Hee-na?”

Kang Jin-hyeon urged Hee-na, who was lost in her thoughts. Because she couldn’t bear his sharp eyes, Heena made up the story appropriately.

“It’s a map skill, and it shows the location of boss mobs and gates.”

Heena spoke without mentioning anything about home.

No matter how ignorant Heena was as an awakened person, she knew that she had to keep the ‘Home Sweet Home’ skill a secret thanks to Woo Min-ah’s repeated advice.

But even if you leave out the ‘Home Sweet Home’ story, this must have been an incredible skill. At that moment, Kang Jin-hyeon’s eyes sparkled.

“…Such a skill exists. “It’s huge.”

He seemed genuinely impressed.

That’s because if you know the location of the dungeon’s boss mob and the gate, the speed of conquering the dungeon will be reduced by less than half.

This is why conquering the first dungeon took so long.

The hunters didn’t know where the boss was and where the gate was. I just had to vaguely wander around the dungeon to find that location.

In that context, Heena’s skills were so great that it would be a waste to say they were incredible.

“Mr. Lee Hee-na, it would be a great shame to have someone with such skills rot away in the environmental beautification team. “I want to scout you for the dungeon raid team.”

So much so that Kang Jin-hyeon of the world forgot all about this situation and made a scouting offer.

“omg. Dungeon raid team? never. I don’t have any combat skills and my body strength is less than 30. “I’m an ordinary person, an ordinary person!”

Heena was horrified and waved her hands. No matter how much more money I was paid, I hated joining the dungeon raid team.

Heena was completely satisfied with the current situation, as she was sweeping and cleaning the Blue Dragon Guild building and replenishing her stamina with kimbap in between.

It was regular and safe.

“but…!”

“I absolutely hate it! Dungeons are too dangerous! “My dream is to live a normal and enjoyable life with my family in a cozy home.”

It was already unique to have a house in a dungeon, but I didn’t want to have anything more unique than that.

Kang Jin-hyeon raised his eyebrows at Heena’s fierce rejection.

“Then let’s talk about this later. “The priority is to get out of this dungeon.”

“…that’s right. “The priority is to get out of here.”

Heena tried to calm her pounding heart. Then, I traced the map in front of me on the floor with a stone.

“The map is not very detailed. “It’s almost like a medicine, but it looks like this.”

Based on the square map, Hee-na and Kang Jin-hyeon were at the bottom left.

And the part marked ‘Gate’ was above the place where the large mountain was drawn in the upper left.

For reference, Heena’s house was in the lower right corner, so it was in the exact opposite position to the gate.

Heena drew a crooked map, leaving out the location of the house.

Kang Jin-hyeon looked at the poor map created at Heena’s fingertips with a serious attitude.

“I drew it all.”

Heena withdrew her hand and Jinhyeon Kang asked an additional question.

“The boss’s location wasn’t revealed?”

“I didn’t see anything like that.”

“Is that so? So, it’s a dungeon in a stabilized state with the boss eliminated…”

Heena urgently asked as he muttered to himself.

“Then you’re lucky, right?”

“yes. “First of all, you can consider that the monsters have almost been eliminated.”

Heena sighed. It was only a one-time experience, but I hated monsters so much that it made me shiver.

Kang Jin-hyeon pointed his finger toward the distance with Hee-na beside him, who sighed in relief.

“And fortunately, there doesn’t seem to be any need to check directions. “It says the gate is on a mountain… I can see the mountain in the distance.”

Heena looked at Jinhyeon Kang’s fingertips. Even at first glance, it seemed very far away.

“It looks really far away, doesn’t it?”

Jinhyeon Kang nodded.

“We will have to travel for about a full day. But it’s going to get dark soon, so it might be better to set up camp here.”

And he quickly took something out of his inventory.

I quickly made a bonfire, lit it, and took out my sleeping bag and spread it out. They took out something and sprinkled it in a circle around the bonfire.

“It’s magic stone powder of illusion. “It makes it difficult for monsters to recognize this place.”

He even kindly explained what he was doing.

Although Kang Jin-hyeon had common sense and manners, he basically seemed like a blunt person, so this kindness was unexpected.

“Heena Lee, surprisingly, conquering dungeons is not that dangerous. “You get to work with a lot of people and you have these tools.”

…I guess it was me. This was clearly an act of excessive kindness to lure Heena into the dungeon raid team.
