The Homemaker of the Dungeon
Chapter 104

Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 104

“It’s okay, Heena. “If it had been a cruel scene to watch, I would have covered my eyes first.”

A strong voice was trustworthy.

‘…is it?’

Actually, Kang Jin-hyeon was not the kind of person who would carelessly show Hee-na his rough side.

I narrowed my eyes and glanced at my feet. Despite the bloody sound, the scene was clean without a single trace of blood.

Instead, there was a lump of crushed mud. The fluffy down was nowhere to be found.

Heena asked hesitantly.

“Is this the rabbit?”

“That’s right. “It is a low-level monster that lowers its guard into a small and cute form and then attacks the opponent unexpectedly.”

“Then please tell me sooner.”

“Heena was the one who didn’t listen to me because she was distracted by the flock of rabbits.”

“….”

I tried to complain in a grumpy voice, but I had nothing to say due to the immediate retort, so I kept my mouth shut.

That was it. Heena was the one who missed Kang Jin-hyeon’s explanation because she was so mesmerized by the sight she saw as soon as she entered the dungeon.

But there was a reason.

‘It felt like heaven, not a dungeon!’

It was like a fairyland.

Who wouldn’t be mesmerized by the shamrock hill and cute flock of rabbits that unfold before their eyes?

At least that was the case for Heena, who loves small and furry things!

‘But if you suddenly catch a rabbit and beat it up, telling it to hit it because it’s a monster! How surprised I would be!’

Heena glanced at the man standing next to her.

He was staring at Baduki playing on the shamrock hill with his arms crossed.

Baduki was excitedly rolling around on the grass, as if he was happy to go for a walk after a long time.

Oooooh!

…and then I got hit by a mud monster that suddenly popped out of a split rabbit head.

“omg.”

Heena was startled by the shocking scene and took a step back.

‘Isn’t it true that only the outer shell was like a rabbit and the inside was a monster?’

Meanwhile, Kang Jin-hyeon must have thought that Hee-na was worried about Baduki, so he kindly explained the situation.

“it’s okay. “The level is low so it won’t do much harm to Baduki.”

“Is that so?”

“yes. It is one of the lowest level and safest dungeons in the country. This should be enough to complete Heena’s quest. And…”

He seemed to hesitate for a moment before continuing.

“I chose this place because the scenery was clean and beautiful and I thought Heena would like it.”

Heena opened her eyes and looked at him.

“You think I might like it?”

“yes. “Because he really liked the open plains we visited last time.”

He seemed to remember Heena’s joy at seeing the dungeon she went to during Baduki’s last walking quest.

“Ah, I never thought you would even think about that…”

Heena looked at Kang Jin-hyeon’s profile as if it was something new. It was a blunt face with no change in expression.

However, Hee-na, who sees Kang Jin-hyeon every day, is now able to read his inner thoughts a little bit.

‘I guess I’m shy.’

For some reason, his earlobes seemed a little redder than usual.

“…Anyway, there doesn’t seem to be a place as suitable as this to proceed with Heena’s quest. “Let’s leave Baduki alone and try to catch the monster.”

I glanced at Baduki and saw that he was kicking back, as if he felt unfair at being hit by a rabbit-shaped mud monster.

However, the monster was dodging its way through the swirling leaves.

“It will take quite some time to fill the 50 monsters allocated for the quest. “There are also issues with Heena’s stamina and strength.”

Kang Jin-hyeon snatched up a passing rabbit like an eagle.

The rabbit that was caught by its ears struggled to its feet. Then, as if she realized that she couldn’t easily escape from his grasp, she revealed her true self.

This time, the belly skin split and a mud monster came out…

Just like that!

…But with one punch from Kang Jin-hyeon, he returned to his rabbit shape and fainted after being hit.

He casually shook the fainted rabbit.

“First, I will train you to strike and then teach you how to attack by moving yourself.”

It seemed like he had his own curriculum planned in his head.

“Don’t be fooled by what you see, be serious.”

Before we knew it, Kang Jin-hyeon became a strict instructor and gave advice.

“yes yes. All right!”

Heena quickly grabbed a newspaper that was useful at SSS level.

I couldn’t just listen to the fact that the best hunter would teach me how to fight.

* * *

“it’s hard!”

Today again, as soon as Heena entered the front door, she lay down on her grandchild.

“Lying down on the bare floor is not good for your health, Heena.”

Kang Jin-hyeon picked up Hee-na like a piece of waste paper and placed her on the sofa.

Before I knew it, I had become accustomed to being touched by Kang Jin-hyeon like this.

“Ugh.”

Heena was spread out on the sofa like wet laundry.

It’s already been a week since I received Kang Jin-hyeon’s special training.

The training, which started with hitting a fainted rabbit monster, soon became more intense.

Now I was learning how to hit a moving object from an efficient direction.

Before I knew it, the quest to catch monsters had become a bit of an afterthought.

Of course, toward the end of the training, I was able to catch a few monsters and make a final attack, so I didn’t completely forget about Heena’s quest.

<It can be done! Dungeon Wreck! (B): Let’s feel the joy of defeating monsters with our own strength. You can also take the high level bus. In addition to the thrill of real-life combat experience, you can even move up the rank!

▶ Required Quest: Eliminate monsters 50 times using the ‘Pest Extermination’ skill (31/50) >

As I was hitting one or two monsters like a baby bird eating food given to me by its mother bird, I had already completed 31 out of 50 attempts.

I thought that if I continued the class like this, I would be able to complete the quest within a month at the latest.

‘Can we finish Mr. Jinhyeon’s combat class before then? Jinhyeon, isn’t it enough to take a lifetime of classes to please him?’

Heena shook her head, recalling the gaze of Jinhyeon Kang as he watched her movements.

‘The eyes look like five colors running at full speed!’

This probably means that Heena’s physical appearance looks miserable.

‘Compared to an S-class hunter, it is natural that a C-class housekeeper’s attack power seems worse than that of a snail’s antennae.’

Heena rationalized herself and blamed Kang Jin-hyeon’s high standards.

Still, the results weren’t all that bad. Heena and Jinhyeon Kang discovered several hidden characteristics of the ‘Pest Extermination’ skill.

‘I guess it’s because it’s a skill related to peace at home, so it’s quite altruistic.’

The pest extermination skill showed higher attack power when used for family members rather than for Heena herself.

This means that the more one thinks about one’s family, the more powerful it becomes.

Heena recalled what happened when her older brother was imprisoned in a forced labor camp.

‘That’s why you were able to knock out the person who tried to harm your brother with one blow.’

It was questionable how a professional hunter could be defeated with the insufficient stats of a D-class housekeeper.

At the time, I thought it was thanks to the good dagger that Kang Jin-hyeon gave me, but it seems that Heena’s ‘pest extermination’ skill also played a significant role.

‘But this is a power that can only be shown when your family is in danger. It’s absolutely useless for self-defense.’

While she was grumbling inwardly about her skills, Kang Jin-hyeon prepared a tray of gobong rice and side dishes and placed them in front of Hee-na.

“Please eat here.”

It was to replenish Heena’s stamina lost through the ‘Bobsim’ skill.

<The spirit of rice (D): Stamina comes from the spirit of rice. Recover your depleted stamina with food mixed with rice. Passive skill.>

“Wash your hands first with a wet towel.”

I also didn’t forget to take care of meticulous cleanliness.

“Thank you, Jinhyeon.”

Heena wiped her hands with a wet towel and looked at Jinhyeon Kang with new eyes.

‘I was a person who couldn’t carry a coffee cup properly or even shake a blanket.’

Kang Jin-hyeon, who was like that, now sets the table on a tray and even prepares wet towels for us to wipe our hands.

I guess it was true that I behaved like a fool in my daily life because I didn’t sleep well or eat well.

Kang Jin-hyeon, who received Hee-na’s careful care, has now easily fulfilled his duties as a person.

“I will eat well.”

I scooped up a large spoonful of white rice and put it in my mouth. Every time I ate a spoonful of rice, I felt vitality coming back to my sagging body.

“Ugh. “I live because I eat.”

It was time for Heena to pat her swollen belly and stretch out refreshed.

Beep beep beep beep!

An alarm began to sound urgently from Kang Jin-hyeon’s waist.

“It’s a surprise!”

Heena was startled by the sudden alarm and covered her ears.

“it’s okay.”

Kang Jin-hyeon reassured Hee-na and pressed the pager button. Soon the noisy house became quiet.

“This is an emergency call.”

“Emergency call?”

“yes. “If an emergency occurs, nearby hunters are notified.”

After giving a brief explanation, he changed his clothes and came out of the room.

It only took a few minutes for him to be dressed in the combat uniform he usually wore when going to and from the guild.

“I’ll just have to go out and see.”

Heena followed behind Jinhyeon Kang as he walked out to the front door.

“Is this dangerous? “When are you coming back?”
