The Homemaker of the Dungeon

Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 41

Woo Min-ah moaned while tousling her hair. Then someone answered.

“Can’t an S-class hunter go through a dungeon alone with a civilian?”

“Oh… I guess so? “I brought him out well last time, so I’m sure he’ll bring me out without any injuries this time, right?”

“Even if it’s random, you’ll fall into a B-class dungeon, so for an S-class, it’s probably easier than chewing gum.”

That’s what I heard and saw. Woo Min-ah put aside her worries about Hee-na and shouted to her team members. My eyes were burning.

“Stop messing around here and kick out the guy who was experimenting with activating the gate seats!”

If Heena couldn’t get out of the dungeon within two days, I was going to catch him and kill him.

* * *

“Ugh.”

Heena couldn’t come to her senses and screamed due to the overwhelming dizziness.

It felt like I was inside the Squirrel Barrel ride. The world spun 360 degrees. I felt like I was being sucked into a vacuum cleaner.

The strange dizziness lasted for about 10 seconds and then stopped.

“Oh, I’m dizzy.”

Heena moaned, holding her pounding head. I was so dizzy that I felt like I was suffering from anemia.

Kang Jin-hyeon put Hee-na down on the floor and made her sit down.

“Heena, are you okay? “Are you very dizzy?”

He grabbed Heena, who was down on one knee, and looked around.

After confirming that there were no visible injuries, Kang Jin-hyeon took his hand off Heena’s shoulder. And I waited patiently until Heena came to her senses.

The first thing Heena said when she came to her senses was this.

“…What is it?”

Jinhyeon Kang answered calmly.

“This is a B-class dungeon.”

The problem was that too much back and forth was omitted.

“No, that’s not it.”

Heena pressed her temples and questioned.

“…Hunter Jinhyeon Kang and I were having lunch on the company rooftop just a moment ago.”

“That’s right.”

“But why did the background suddenly change to a dungeon?”

It felt like I was dreaming. It didn’t take more than a few minutes or even a few seconds for a peaceful daily life to change into an extraordinary one.

“I didn’t even clean the coins this time! Could it be that the dungeon gate has opened again? Is the Blue Dragon Guild disappearing? “It won’t work!”

It was the moment when Heena’s trauma of losing her job was about to be stimulated.

“It is true that the dungeon gate is open, but it is not a normal gate opening. “It is an artificially created gate.”

“Are you creating an artificial gate?”

“It looks like the gate magic stone has run away.”

Kang Jin-hyeon briefly explained it to a confused Hee-na.

It seems that someone was experimenting with an artificial gate magic stone and caused it to run away, and to kill it, they found an unoccupied place and threw it away.

He also added that, although not often, this happens very occasionally in guilds.

Heena couldn’t hold back her astonishment and asked back.

“Is this how you’ve been handling it? “By throwing it on the rooftop garden?”

It was so sloppy that it was hard to believe that it was handled by a large guild.

“There haven’t been any problems so far.”

“Isn’t this something that can cause problems?”

Heena was unable to adapt to the hunters’ unusual way of thinking and was foolish. Then Kang Jin-hyeon responded casually.

“Of course, I only use this method when no one is in the rooftop garden. “It’s just that Hunter Woo Minah wasn’t able to catch my presence this time.”

It was natural. It was an S-class hunter and his group who had hidden their presence. Therefore, Woo Min-ah’s fault for throwing the gate magic stone into the air after deciding that there was no one on the rooftop was not that big of a mistake.

“For reference, man-made gates are small in size and have an extremely short opening time.”

Jinhyeon Kang kindly taught us even useless gate trivia.

Heena listened to the explanation carefully and put her complicated thoughts in order.

“So you’re saying that we were unluckily sucked into an artificial gate and ended up in a dungeon?”

“you’re right. I understood well.”

Kang Jin-hyeon raised his eyebrows and praised the smart student. But I wasn’t happy at all.

Heena screamed.

“I don’t think it’s been even a month since I went to the dungeon, but I fell into the dungeon again!”

I’m not even a hunter, but this was already my third dungeon. This is already my third time in a dungeon where other people might fall once even if they live their whole lives!

‘If this is going to happen, I’d rather join the dungeon strategy team and get a good basic salary!’

Feeling unfair, Heena even thought of something ridiculous. If it were Kang Jin-hyeon before he tasted Heena’s food, it would have been an idea he would have welcomed with open hands.

“Do not worry. This dungeon is easy to conquer. “It was a dungeon scheduled to be conquered by the Blue Dragon Guild in two weeks, but I got to enter it early like this.”

Kang Jin-hyeon seemed to know where this place was. He stood up Heena with a familiar expression. The firm hands holding each other felt particularly reassuring.

Heena looked around.

There were large pillars that seemed to be as tall as 3 meters. It didn’t seem to be a tree, as it had no branches or leaves.

Instead, what looked like a wrinkled flower bud was hanging at the top of the pillar with its mouth closed. The sizes of the pillars were slightly different, but the shapes were all similar.

“Have you ever been to this dungeon?”

“That’s right.”

The answer came out refreshingly. Heena looked up at him as if it was something new.

“It is not difficult to attack, so I am not involved now, but I remember entering during the first raid when I had no information.”

Jinhyeon Kang calmly explained this dungeon. I suddenly saw a relaxed appearance without even the slightest sense of agitation.

“This dungeon is made up of a colony of mushroom-shaped monsters. In this case, if you only kill the boss monster in the very center of the colony, the rest will wither and disappear.”

“Mushrooms… monsters?”

Heena thought of the oyster mushrooms and enoki mushrooms she put in the soybean paste soup today.

‘Can a mushroom like that become a monster?’

Kang Jin-hyeon, perhaps reading the expression, explained in a little more detail.

“The mushroom itself cannot move. However, it can emit spores to attack enemies.”

“Spores?”

“That’s right. “The spores move around like a swarm of bees.”

“Ugh… I can’t imagine, but it sounds gross and dangerous. Should I at least wear a mask?”

Heena took out a disposable mask she wears when cleaning and handed it to Jinhyeon Kang.

Kang Jin-hyeon politely declined the kindness.

“it’s okay. A spore attack will not occur unless you attack first. It can be considered completely safe except at sunrise. Above all, I will protect Heena, so you don’t have to worry.”

He then explained further.

“The strategy is simple. An hour after sunrise, mushroom colonies bud and become active. At that time, the bud of the boss monster will also open, and you can take advantage of that gap to stab in the middle of the gap and remove it.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Heena looked down at her shadow. The sun was above my head, so there was a shadow at my feet.

“It’s only noon, so we have to wait until dawn?”

“yes. However, since there is no need to fight while waiting, the strategy can be said to be relatively clean and simple.”

He answered quietly and gathered up the items that had been swept away at the gate with them. His hands were very careful, as if he was touching a luxury item.

‘what?’

I stuck my head out and took a closer look, and it turned out to be Heena’s insulated lunch box.

“I guess the lunch box was swept away too. “I thought it was broken, but surprisingly it was fine.”

Heena squatted down next to him and spoke. Since the S-class hunter was collecting the lunch box, I felt like I had to do something.

“…Only the lunch box is intact.”

However, the look that Kang Jin-hyeon was giving off was somehow unusual. Heena turned her head and looked at his expression.

‘what?’

His generally indifferent eyes were a little different from usual. He was casting a moist gaze, also known as ‘melo-eyed’, towards the lunch box.

‘omg. I’m excited.’

Heena’s heart was vulnerable to the handsome face. Heena tried to calm her pounding heart.

“Is something wrong?”

When asked, Kang Jin-hyeon slowly parted his lips.

“A lunch box….”

“A lunch box?”

“I couldn’t even eat half of the lunch box Heena personally prepared for me, but I spilled it all.”

It was like that. He was sad looking at the messed up contents of his lunch box.

It looked as vain as a raccoon looking at cotton candy that had disappeared after being washed in water.

I grabbed the lunch box and didn’t know what to do, so I jumped in and grabbed the lunch box.

“It’s just a packed lunch.”

Meanwhile, Heena shook the dirt-splattered rice and side dishes and threw them away on the dungeon floor.

Every time food was mercilessly thrown on the floor, Kang Jin-hyeon’s pupils shook.

Heena had to briefly consider whether it would be rude to tell him, ‘Hunter, you can’t eat anything that fell on the floor.’

“I’ve sorted everything out.”

Fortunately, Heena recovered the lunch box without any major incident. Kang Jin-hyeon couldn’t let go of his regrets at the food left on the floor and kept glancing at it.

“Once we get out of here, I’ll pack you a more delicious lunch. “Don’t be too sad.”

“But this is special….”

“Sweet Hunter.”

Without realizing it, Heena said ‘Use!’ as if she were talking to a dog. And I made a clicking sound.

Fortunately, Kang Jin-hyeon did not mind Hee-na’s treatment. Instead, he curled his tail and nodded.

“All right. I’m sorry. “I think I felt a lot of regret when I thought about the food and objects that Heena had touched.”

In any case, it was very difficult to keep watching the S-class hunter’s beggar-like appearance.

Heena asked something else to divert Kang Jin-hyeon’s attention.

“So where should we go? “Can I just stay like this?”
