Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 159

12. Prince Umji and Housekeeper

Heena stuck their heads out the door.

“Dahye, let’s eat!”

Then Dahye Kwon, who had been scribbling something at her office desk, suddenly looked up.

“What about Hunter Jinhyeon Kang?”

“Jinhyeon has a schedule, so we won’t eat together today.”

A subtle blush appeared on Kwon Da-hye’s face at the answer.

“So it’s just the two of us eating today?”

“huh. I prepared a lot of your favorite side dishes. Are you hungry from studying? let’s go.”

“…yes!”

Dahye Kwon followed Heena, who was wearing a chick-colored yellow apron, like a chick.

‘You’re cute.’

Heena glanced at Kwon Da-hye and smiled.

He was still silent and gloomy, but that was only his appearance.

Kwon Da-hye pursed her lips and pretended not to be interested, but eagerly followed Hee-na wherever she went. It really looked like a chick chasing its mother hen.

It didn’t feel like a hassle.

On the contrary, I was happy because I felt like I had a younger sibling who was much older than me.

Especially when I think back to how shy I used to be, I felt like I had tamed a sensitive kitten.

“let’s eat. “There’s a practical class this afternoon today, right?”

“yes.”

“I need to eat well.”

Kwon Da-hye, who awakened to an S-class buffer, recently signed an exclusive hunter contract with the Blue Dragon Guild.

People wondered what kind of unconventional proposal the Blue Dragon Guild would have made to Dahye Kwon.

There were many speculations.

However, no one would have expected that a person named Lee Hee-na would be an important key to this contract.

The reason Kwon Da-hye chose the Blue Dragon Guild was purely because it was the guild that Hee-na belonged to.

At this, guild leader Kim Gyu-hee was overjoyed and summoned Heena. And he suggested something new.

‘Dahye Kwon seemed to have great faith and trust in team leader Heena Lee. So, by the way… Do you have any plans to take on one more person besides Hunter Kang?’

The guild leader needed something to keep Kwon Da-hye, an S-class buffer, firmly attached to the Blue Dragon Guild.

She quickly decided that it was Heena.

And Heena’s answer to the guild leader’s suggestion… was almost half-determined.

Heena gladly accepted the offer.

‘There’s nothing difficult about taking on another Da-hye.’

No matter how much she has awakened to S-class status, Kwon Da-hye is still only fourteen years old.

This is the age where you need an adult to take care of you in some way.

Heena spoke to Kwon Da-hye, who was eating intently.

“Isn’t it difficult to combine school classes and guild training?”

“hmm. are you okay.”

“Well, Dahye is smart, so you don’t have to worry about studying. “I heard you were often first in your class?”

“…It’s not that difficult.”

Although Heena responded indifferently, she clearly saw a hint of red flash across Kwon Da-hye’s cheekbones.

They are feeling ashamed.

‘Oh, you’re so cute!’

Instead of revealing her true feelings, Heena nodded and pretended not to notice.

“That’s the great thing. Even after coming to the guild, I regularly review my school homework.”

“…Now that I’m not going to the academy, I have to do at least that much to keep up with my progress.”

Heena laughed quietly at the refreshing tone.

* * *

As I was enjoying my alone time after leaving Kwon Da-hye, I heard the sound of someone falling and shouting from afar.

If the noise was loud enough to go beyond the thick office door, it was clear that this was no ordinary incident.

‘What’s going on?’

As I was pricking up my ears, I felt like the loud noise was getting closer and closer.

‘Has there been a fight? Or what if the experiment I was doing went wrong?’

It was when I was staring at the office door with my chin resting.

Pow!

The door bursts without even a message! And it exploded.

It didn’t open with a bang. Literally boom! And it exploded.

The office door is extremely sturdy!

It was true that if you were too surprised, you wouldn’t even scream.

Heena pursed her lips with a puzzled expression on her face.

The entrance to the office was covered in dust like fog. It was cement powder. This is because the door was torn off.

“What what…what is it?”

As I barely managed to mumble my voice, a small figure moved quickly through the thick dust.

It flopped down on Heena’s desk.

And…

“Mr. Heena.”

A familiar voice was heard.

“Ji Ji Jinhyeon?”

Heena rubbed her eyes with a bewildered expression. Because I couldn’t believe the scene unfolding before my eyes.

“…Am I dreaming now?”

Not surprisingly, Kang Jin-hyeon’s appearance had now become as small as five colors.

Whether Hee-na was surprised or not, Kang Jin-hyeon washed his face dry and sighed in relief.

“Nothing happened to Heena. Fortunately, the.”

With a body that was about the size of an adult’s hand, it looked a little… cute rather than serious.

‘No, something serious has happened and I can’t believe I’m thinking like this!’

Heena shook her head to get rid of useless thoughts.

“Anyway, Jinhyun, what happened? Why did it get so small? Are you doing an experiment? “Why did you come to me?”

Wadada was about to start asking questions.

“Where did it disappear to?”

“excuse me! “It looks like he went there!”

“Ugh! “What the hell is going on?”

The shouting got closer and a group of people blocked Heena’s broken door.

‘what?’

Heena’s eyes widened because the faces she saw beyond the dust looked surprisingly familiar.

“Mi Minah? Kang Mok-hyeon, head of the human resources team? Plus… the guild leader?”

There was a gathering of key figures that anyone belonging to the Blue Dragon Guild would not know.

While I was left with my mouth open in a daze at the frantically unfolding situation, guild leader Kim Gyu-hee quickly looked around and pointed at Kang Jin-hyeon in an uncharacteristically urgent voice.

“Team leader Lee! Jinhyeon Kang! catch! hurry!”

“What about Jinhyeon Ji? why?”

When Heena tilted her head, Woo Minah screamed.

“During an executive meeting, you turn into something like that and suddenly you’re a rabbit! What if someone sees it and spreads rumors about it? “Oh no, we have to stop the executives from joining!”

“I have taken care of that.”

“Good, very good. “Human Resources Manager!”

Woo Min-ah clenched her fist towards the older of the Kang brothers and tried to criticize him again.

However, his younger brother, Mr. Kang, was the first to open his mouth.

“First of all, I have never run away. “I just moved to check on Heena’s safety.”

Kang Jin-hyeon, who was only a foot tall, responded harshly.

Woo Min-ah did not lose either.

“But does that mean it flies and destroys all the walls of the conference room? ok? “I’m here doing advertising?”

“Given the circumstances, it can be inferred that it was caused by the necromancer’s curse, and then there is a possibility that Ms. Heena was also touched by the curse.”

“If it were Heena, I would have waited here quietly a long time ago!”

“How surprised would Heena be if something like that had happened?”

“Hey, it’s you who’s blushing now, not Heena, right?”

“That’s a good thing.”

“No, the answer is very high-quality, isn’t it?”

It was guild leader Kim Gyu-hee who managed to control the atmosphere that was slowly becoming more extreme.

“If you’re going to fight, go somewhere with no people and fight. “It’s top secret that something strange happened to an S-class hunter.”

* * *

Heena moved to the conference room, hiding Kang Jin-hyeon in her apron pocket.

As soon as Kang Mok-hyeon, the head of the human resources team who came in last, slammed the conference room door shut, Heena carefully placed Kang Jin-hyeon on the conference room table.

“Mr. Jinhyeon. What on earth is going on? “Please explain.”

“As I mentioned earlier… it seems like the curse of the S-class necromancer I dealt with last time has manifested itself.”

“So you got this small?”

“yes. “After a message appeared saying that a secret curse was starting to take over my entire body, my body suddenly became smaller.”

Heena asked sharply at the answer, which was as casual as saying, “I ate today.”

“…I said it was okay!”

“yes?”

“I did it yesterday, the day before that, and the day before that! Even when you come out of the dungeon! “I asked if you were okay with the necromancer attack, and Jinhyeon said you were okay!”

Heena got excited without even realizing it and slammed the table.

The table shook mercilessly due to the heavy blow, and Kang Jin-hyeon, who was only a handful, stumbled for a moment.

Regardless of whether the floor he was standing on shook or not, Kang Jin-hyeon answered quite confidently.

“I thought it was okay. Since then, my physical condition has not changed and the results of the composite test came back the same as usual. So I thought it was a meaningless attack.”

Heena sighed deeply at the coherent explanation.

“…all right. “Is everything else okay?”

“Except for all stats being reduced by 20%, everything is fine.”

“…Normally, he wouldn’t say he’s fine when he’s 20% weaker.”

Guild leader Kim Gyu-hee quietly intervened and said the right thing.

However, Kang Jin-hyeon was a more positive person than I thought.

“The size has shrunk to about 1/10th of the size, but I should say I am fortunate to be able to produce this much strength.”

The conversation continued while Heena gaped at that way of thinking.

Woo Min-ah groaned.

“Anyway, it’s a big deal. You are the only S-class hunter in the Blue Dragon Guild, or rather in our country, and if something happened to you…”

“The country would turn upside down.”

“okay. Jinhyeon Kang! You know it well! “This is not your problem alone!”

Woo Min-ah scratched her head in pain.

On the other hand, Kang Jin-hyeon looked so calm that he couldn’t be any more calm.

“What’s the use of panicking when the situation has already come to an end? “We have no choice but to replace a way.”

He raised his head and looked closely at the people standing in front of him.

Heena gulped her saliva as she looked at Kang Jin-hyeon’s serious eyes.

It was small enough to fit in the palm of your hand, but the energy radiating from it was still there.

“And isn’t the Blue Dragon Guild a place where the best talent gathers? “Maybe we can somehow replace a way to break the curse.”
