Housekeeper in the dungeon

EPISODE 81

“Well, that’s…….”

He said that he had spent 10 years making money, making money, making money, and it didn’t feel real when he was finally given a large sum of money.

Hee-na empathized with her. She was also working at a company and living a normal life.

“I had been dreaming about it ever since you got your new apartment. It was so nice not to have to work so hard for a living…….”

Hee-won mumbled dreamily.

What a blessing and happiness to be able to live in the present without worrying about the future.

“Our parents must be helping us from heaven.”

Hee-na said, bringing up something sentimental that she wouldn’t normally say.

Hee-won looked at her sister’s face.

The fifteen-year-old sister who had cried until her eyes puffed up when her parents passed away was now a young woman of twenty-five.

“Hee-na, you had been through a lot, hadn’t you?”

“What was hard……. It must have been hard for my brother to support me.”

“They said that even a rat hole can give you a sunburn, so we’re all rich now. Let’s live comfortably, do a lot of things we’ve always wanted to do, and live generously and leisurely.”

The siblings talked and talked and talked.

Wu Xiaoyi and Go sat by their side and enjoyed a peaceful time.

In the short time that followed, many things happened.

A house warming party was held, Go became huge, and Hee-won’s peanuts made her a fortune.

For the record, Hee-won once offered Hee-na a billion won for roasting peanuts, but she declined the offer because she didn’t want to keep the money in the family.

“It was weird to get paid for the peanuts that my brother grew with all his hard work, but I put a spoon on the end. We’re family, I can do that much.

In the mean time, Hee-na was steadily and gradually progressing in her quest.

In many ways, the walking quest, which was supposed to be dangerous, was safe and peaceful.

The most dangerous boss monsters were avoided by using the ‘Where was My Home’ skill. This skill shows the location of the door to Home Sweet Home, the dungeon gate, and the boss mob.

Next, the robe I borrowed from Kang Jin-hyeon came in handy. Wearing the Robe of Stealth allowed her to move silently and remain invisible to most of the monsters in the early game.

She didn’t even have to use the defense bracelet she received from the house warming quest.

Even Hee-won, who was nervous about what might happen whenever they went out for a walk, had grown restless.

Hee-Na and Baduk were walking through a jungle-like dungeon with lush greenery.

“I know this was exciting, but didn’t go too far!”

Go was excited to see so many friends who looked like him around. He darted through the jungle at a pace that Hee-Na could barely see.

They dug holes in the ground and climbed trees with their roots. It didn’t stop to snack on the monsters that jumped out of the jungle.

He was quite strong. He was unstoppable against most monsters.

Larger monsters could be swatted away with vines and leaves, and smaller ones were often eaten.

“This was so exciting…….”

Hee-na grinned as she watched.

Was it because he was the one who nurtured her? Baduk was very loyal to Hee-won.

If Hee-won wasn’t around, he would get restless, rolling his roots around, and spend the whole day following her around.

‘But lately, he was been a little bit mean to me and……. You loved to go for walks.’

Once, twice, three times…… the dungeon walk quest, the behavior was changing little by little.

Gone was the duckling-like behavior of following his mother around, and he was able to get along without her help. After a few walks, he seemed to gain confidence and independence.

He also seems to have developed a strong liking for Hee-Na and has recently started following her around.

‘My brother resents the change in my cute little cub, but…… I like this side better.’

The cuddly Go was cuter than I thought. Gone were the days when I thought it was gross that plants moved.

Of course, Oh was a bit unhappy that Hee-na’s attention was stolen, but like a good house manager, he seemed to overlook her behavior.

He also didn’t forget to sneakily appeal to Hee-na, saying, “I = Dae-in-bae.”

“Baduk, don’t go anywhere dangerous, but have fun!”

Hee-na flopped down on the mossy rocks with her excited Go pieces unleashed.

Her robes were waterproof, but her butt was still damp from sitting on the damp moss.

“What was for lunch and dinner tomorrow? What were we doing?

It happened to be the season when Kang Jin-hyeon was out on a dungeon raid. As a result, Hee-na was living a very normal life.

There was no one to cook for her, no one to take care of her, and she had nothing to do but fry peanuts when she had time.

“Was there anything more I can did?” she asked herself.

I was having a productive thought that would have been welcomed with open arms at work.

Jab.

The crunch of dirt rang out loudly.

“Go, are you done playing? Shall we go now?”

The only person who could come to Hee-na was Go, so she naturally dusted herself off and got up. …….

“……Hee-Na?”

An unexpected voice called out.

“Huh?”

She looked up with such urgency that it was almost a whimper, and instead of a sobbing pet plant, a handsome man stood in front of her.

Hee-Na knew the man’s name. Very, very, very well.

“Mr. ……Jin-hyeon?”

It was Kang Jin-hyeon.

“How did you get here, Hee-na? I thought I was the only one who entered this dungeon…….?”

He blinked again and again as if he was surprised. Hee-na was also very surprised and sucked in a breath.

“What, what, was this the dungeon that Mr. Qin Hyeon entered?

Of all the dungeons in the world, she had just entered the dungeon that Kang Jin Hyeon was currently raiding! It was too bad she hadn’t gotten lucky.

‘I was wearing a robe of stealth, why…… Aha, it was an A-class robe. Jinhyun is an S-class, so he can’t hide himself with an A-class robe.”

I didn’t expect to run into Kang Jin-hyeon, one of the few S-class Hunters in the world who couldn’t use the Robe of Concealment and one who knew Hee-na.

“Oh, no, hello.”

Hee-na waves, the corner of her mouth twitching up awkwardly. Of course, in her head, dozens of excuses for how to handle this were floating around.

“What was I going to did about this? What was I going to say? Should I tell her I fell by accident? Should I do it again? Is it even possible to fall into the same dungeon with the same person three times in a row, no matter how unlucky you were?

Hee-na’s head and eyes were spinning.

Meanwhile, Kang Jin-hyeon rushed over and grabbed Hee-na by the shoulders, bombarding her with questions.

“Ms. Hee-na, how did you end up here? Was it the same strange fragment as last time, or did you get caught up in the gate explosion at work again?”

He didn’t forget to check Hee-Na’s body for any injuries.

“I see you were wearing the Robe of Stealth, good for you, it was a good thing I left the Robe of Stealth in Hee-Na’s care. ……Yes, I’d better give this to Hee-Na, she gets into dungeon accidents too often. She needs something to protect herself. When you get out of here, you might as well get a weapon that Ms. Hee-Na can use.”

He continued to speak with a determined expression.

It was the first time Hee-na realized that Kang Jin-hyun could talk so long and fast.

“Oh, was that…….”

Hee-Na stuttered. She felt terrible because she had entered the dungeon of her own free will, not because she was involved in a dungeon accident.

“……Did you come in here by yourself, and did you catch the boss?”

“Yep. I was playing solo. I haven’t found the boss monster yet, this place was dangerous, so came with me…… No, put this on first.”

One by one, Kang Jin-hyeon began to remove the defensive equipment he was wearing and stuffed them onto Hee-na’s shoulders, arms, and legs. It was a meticulous touch.

“This was…….”

“I’ll protect you, of course, but it was better to have your armor on, just in case you were in danger.”

“What about you, Jin-hyeon? You took all this off for me, so you were naked.”

“It was okay, you can take off more here. Hee-na’s safety was more important.”

Seriously, he was ready to take off everything from his outerwear to his underwear if Hee-na asked him to. Of course, Hee-na had no intention of doing that…….

“But this was too heavy, I can’t move my body.”

No matter what Kang Jin-hyun’s armor was made of, it was as heavy as if he had several kilograms of dumbbells on his limbs.

This was even though his stats were quite high, so he should have more strength than a normal person.

Hee-Na grunted and raised her arms. She could feel the bulge of her humble egg sacs, though they were hidden inside her robe. That meant it was heavy and hard.

‘They won’t break this like they did the robe, right?

I looked up at Kang Jin-hyeon with a vague sense of anxiety.

I heard the sound of footsteps, tapping, tapping, tapping, tapping.

“Go! Go!

Suddenly, Hee-na remembered Go. She had forgotten about Kang Jin-hyeon because she had met him so suddenly. She felt anxious.

“Uh, uh, what should I do?

Since Hee-na could feel the Go player’s aura, Kang Jin-hyeon must have already noticed her presence.

He took his eyes off Hee-na and stared intently at a spot. His fists had balled up into tight fists.

Thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump!

Hee-na slowly turned her head to the side and watched as the go-player got closer.

It was running excitedly toward her, seemingly oblivious to this desperate situation.

‘No! Ran away now! Don’t pretend you know!

“Honestly, weren’t you the same way, since you still like to browse grocery store sales?”
