Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 105

Kang Jin-hyeon quickly answered Heena’s question.

“well. “I guess I’ll replace out the mission risk only after I go, but if it’s something that even calls me, it’s most likely an incident related to the dungeon gate.”

“omg.”

I held my breath as the situation became as urgent as the emergency call alarm. All kinds of imaginations were swirling in my head.

‘Could it be that another dungeon gate has appeared? Or Dungeon Break?’

Heena had just as much dungeon knowledge as an ordinary person. However, I knew that this kind of unexpected dungeon activity was not common.

Especially recently, when I’ve done a lot of dungeon research, encountering unexpected dungeon gates has become a rare occurrence.

This was because numerous dungeon experts belonging to the government predicted the area and time of gate creation and prepared for it.

In addition, each guild was assigned to each guild and was thoroughly managed in each dungeon that had already been created, so the probability of a dungeon break occurring was close to zero.

‘…But then an emergency like this happens again?’

Heena recalled the Dungeon Gate incident that occurred a few months ago upon her awakening.

Heenaya was the one who got caught up in the Gate, so he was so busy that he didn’t have time to pay much attention, but even then, the Dungeon Gate appeared without any warning, and the country was in an uproar for a while.

It was the first time in recent years that the dungeon management office was unable to detect the signs of gate creation.

‘The first one could have been because I was unlucky. But isn’t the situation a bit serious for such an emergency to occur twice in a row in half a year?’

Heena bit her lip.

‘I’m barely able to survive now, but I’m sure another disaster won’t strike, right?’

Anxiety welled up inside me. I was afraid that I didn’t want to lose the peaceful daily life I had managed to replace.

“It would be better to eat first. It may be difficult to get in for the next two or three days. If you have something urgent to say, please contact us through the communications team.”

Unfortunately, Kang Jin-hyeon was unable to capture Hee-na’s anxious expression as he was busy explaining the situation and tightening the straps of the walker.

However, as he was about to leave the front door, he stopped for a moment as if he noticed something unusual.

“This kind of emergency that is not officially announced by Heena’s government is not uncommon. It’s no big deal. “Don’t worry too much.”

He had a blunt face and was amazing at reading Heena’s anxiety.

“Is that so?”

“yes.”

Kang Jin-hyeon answered firmly. And then he stretched out his hand and lightly tapped Heena’s shoulder.

“Isn’t it me more than anything else? “I will be back as soon as possible.”

The fingertips touching my shoulder felt reassuring. Warmth spread through his fingertips.

Heena’s dark face became much brighter.

‘but. What is there to be afraid of when Jinhyeon is by your side? Plus, by my side, I have an older brother who is an expert hunter, Osaek, and Baduki. I too am awakened and can protect my own body. It’s different from before when I was powerless.’

Heena clenched her fists.

Right now, the priority was to worry about Kang Jin-hyeon, who was running through a dangerous field.

“Jinhyeon, please be careful. “There is no danger for us at home.”

Before we knew it, Osaek, who had crawled over to see Kang Jin-hyeon off, also saw him off.

「※Safety first※」

* * *

It was when I ate without Kang Jin-hyeon and was enjoying the feeling of fullness for a while.

Heewon suddenly opened his mouth.

“I have two good news. Which do you want to hear first?”

“anything.”

Heena answered indifferently. It wasn’t every day or two that my brother said nonsense.

“What an indifferent little brother!”

“It would be news like the root of baduk got 1cm longer.”

“It’s not like that this time. “It’s a good thing you should check out.”

Heewon relaxedly clenched her chin.

“Do you remember the spinach I sowed in the garden?”

Heena recalled the tiny leaves that were barely sticking out.

“Uh… spinach. You are talking about something that had the effect of increasing strength or strength, right? “What did you show the guild leader?”

“huh. that’s right. “That spinach is all grown up.”

At that sound, Heena jumped up from her seat. This was really good news.

“Really? That’s all grown up already? “When I saw you a while ago, it was really smaller than your finger.”

“okay. “They drank water, ate sunlight, and received fertilizer, and in the meantime, they grew up.”

Heewon smiled proudly. It was the smile of a farmer who had grown something wonderful.

“How about the efficacy? Have you checked the status window? huh? Do you think it’s useful? Should I tell the guild?”

Heena poured out a barrage of questions.

The spinach was all grown up, so if the efficacy was good, I needed to schedule another meeting with the guild leader soon.

Heewon shrugged his shoulders, seeming quite satisfied with Heena’s fuss. And then he took the lead.

“Follow me and check it out for yourself.”

He said he would show me the spinach garden in person.

Heena followed behind her brother. I was curious about how much the tiny spinach, which looked like an unsightly weed, had grown.

“Seeing is worth hearing.”

He was even carrying a snail on his shoulder, showing off his knowledge with all his might.

“wow! “It’s incredibly big, right?”

Heena opened her mouth wide when she saw the bright blue vegetable garden. The spinach that had been growing sparsely had suddenly filled the garden.

“It really looks like spinach sold at the supermarket! “It’s amazing.”

Is it because I eat vegetables often? It felt even more amazing than the last peanut harvest.

Heena made a fuss and squatted down in front of the fresh spinach. As soon as I thought about opening the status window, text suddenly appeared in front of my eyes.

<Spinach (A): When consumed raw, muscle strength increases by 9% for 10 minutes. If you cook it with a special touch, you may get better results. >

“Muscle strength increases by 9%?”

Heena tilted her head at the ambiguous percentage.

“Isn’t this getting worse? When you were baby spinach, your strength was +1. Now it’s only a 9% increase.”

Heena’s strength stat was now 9. If strength increased by 9% after eating adult spinach, the score was 9.81, less than 10.

If you eat undergrown spinach, which increases your strength point by 1, you can immediately increase it to 10.

“I think it’s worse than I thought.”

It may be better than having no efficacy, but it was an ambiguous number of 9%, not 10%.

Plus, the effect only lasts for 10 minutes… There were a few things that were disappointing.

“It would be difficult to get as much price as peanuts. “There are also substitute products, such as strength-increasing potions.”

Heena quietly expressed her regrets.

Then Heewon screamed as if asking what he was talking about.

“What’s so bad about it? It’s so amazing! “If you just sell it like this without cooking it, you’ll get rich quickly!”

“That’s right. That’s right. “Landlord = Awakened person, I don’t know what’s going on.”

Even Osaek made fun of Heena’s common sense by beeping the antenna. Judging by the fact that the font was Chinese characters, he was sincere.

Heewon sat down on the floor and began to explain.

“Stats 1 2 3… increasing by an integer like this is only good for low-level awakeners like us with low stats.”

“why?”

“lets think. In your case, your stats are so low that even if you receive a percentage buff, your stats won’t be much different. But for example, let’s say the strength stat is 100. “Then the story will be different.”

Heena quietly calculated in her mind. The number was 100, so the calculation was easy.

‘If you get a 9% buff out of 100… it’s 109.’

In effect, the stat increased by 9 points. It was much greater than the 1 point stat given by undergrown spinach.

Something flashed past my head.

“ah. I see “It would be more helpful for high-rank hunters with higher stats to receive a percentage buff.”

Hee-won nodded in satisfaction at Hee-na’s words to herself.

“okay. For high-level hunters with excellent basic abilities, the percentage increase buff is much more beneficial than the essence increase buff. “My abilities are in the triple digits, so just increasing them by 1 or 2 won’t have much of an effect, right?”

“aha. “Is this what all high-level hunters like?”

Only then did the seemingly useless spinach garden begin to look like a bundle of bright blue bills.

Dungeon-related items were basically expensive, and the use of them by high-rank hunters was beyond imagination.

“Besides, 10 minutes is long enough. You may think it’s short, but during battle, every minute and every second is urgent. Usually, the effects of buff potions last about this long.”

Heewon pointed out the benefits of spinach.

It was also said that 9% was an effect comparable to the highest grade B potion.

“It’s a B-class potion!”

Even low-level potions cost hundreds to tens of millions of won, so it’s a B-level potion.

Heena opened her eyes wide. In addition, Hee-won went one step further.

“And have you tried the potion? Do you know how terrible potions taste? “There are some hunters who can’t drink potions because they have a weak stomach.”

Hee-won’s words reminded Hee-na of the taste of the recovery potion she had tried only once before.

‘Ugh.’

It tasted so horrible that it was indescribable. I didn’t even want to think about it again.

“But this is spinach! It tastes good even when eaten raw! “It even tastes much better when you cook it.”

“It’s effective and tastes good ♬ Killing two birds

with one stone ♪” Ohsaekyi clapped next to him.

As if I had a taste for Chinese idioms, there was a lot of talk about killing two birds with one stone.
