The Homemaker of the Dungeon
Chapter 162

Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 162

* * *

After flying for nearly twenty hours, the group finally arrived at their destination.

As soon as I got off the plane, I took a limousine and arrived at a large hotel.

“Wow…”

Heena couldn’t stop admiring.

It was amazing to hear the exotic accents and free atmosphere coming from all directions.

Woo Min-ah giggled and whispered to Heena.

“Please call a healer?”

“yes yes? Healer? “Why healer?”

“I felt like my eyes were going to pop out and my jaw would fall off.”

It was light teasing. Heena blushed slightly and rolled her eyes.

“It’s my first time traveling abroad. So it can be amazing!”

“Okay, okay. “I saw a lot while I was here.”

Woo Min-ah messed up Heena’s hair a lot.

Perhaps because he was so strong that his body stumbled, Kang Jin-hyeon, who was in Heena’s mini bag, opened his eyes and shouted.

“Woo Min, please don’t trouble Hunter Heena.”

But Woo Min-ah didn’t care and just shrugged her shoulders.

“I’m going to get caught like this. “Be quiet.”

With that, Heena closed her bag tightly and locked it.

“Woomin, heont…!”

Kang Jin-hyeon’s voice was swallowed and disappeared into the bag.

If I tried to get out of the bag, I would inevitably attract people’s attention, so it was like being helplessly trapped in the bag.

“Keukeuk flirting.”

Woo Min-ah giggled.

I shouldn’t have laughed along, but Woo Min-ah’s voice was so pleasant.

In the end, Heena couldn’t hold back and burst into laughter.

“I’m sorry for laughing earlier.”

Kang Jin-hyeon mumbled an apology with a half-fazed expression.

“…If Heena had fun, that’s fine.”

Heena and her group unpacked in the royal suite on the upper floor of the hotel.

This is because Choi Sang-hoon, an S-class appraiser, was an honored guest at the World Appraisal Society.

“The conference schedule will start the day after tomorrow.”

Woo Min-ah advised me to get some rest for a few days to adjust to the jet lag.

“The conference will last for a week, and even after the conference is over, I will stay in the U.S. until things are resolved under the pretext of a research exchange with Appraiser Choi Sang-hoon.”

“Wow… the conference lasts a week?”

“It’s not just academic presentations. “There are a lot of different events.”

Choi Sang-hoon also helped Woo Min-ah’s explanation.

“It’s not a routine academic conference, so it will be fun to watch. “I’ll show you a lot of interesting things.”

Woo Min-ah clapped her hands as she pushed Choi Sang-hoon, who was laughing.

“ruler! I’m going to meet a Falcon Guild official, so everyone else, please rest. Please consider free time until tomorrow. Oh, and in the meantime, don’t get into any trouble and enjoy the sightseeing calmly!”

“Ahhh….”

Heena stretched and woke up on the soft bed as if she was melting.

By the time I took a break from the fatigue of the long-distance flight, two hours had already passed.

‘It’s midday.’

Because I arrived in the morning, US time, the sun was still shining even when I woke up.

Heena decided to go out after looking at the scenery outside the balcony.

The strong sunlight of California was beckoning towards Heena.

I put on the interpretation item that Minah Woo gave me and quickly got ready to go out.

‘exciting! It’s America! It’s America! ‘I have to buy a lot of souvenirs!’

It was the moment when I was about to put on my wide-brimmed hat and go outside.

“Are you planning on going out?”

Kang Jin-hyeon was looking at Hee-na with his butt on the table.

“Oh, Mr. Jinhyeon. “You weren’t sleeping.”

“yes. “I’m not particularly tired… By the way, if you’re planning on going out, can I accompany you?”

Heena took a quick look at Jinhyeon Kang’s eyes.

“hmm. Wouldn’t that be a bit difficult? “It’s a secret that Jinhyeon has become smaller, so I think we’ll be in trouble if it’s discovered.”

“I will hide well so as not to be seen. “I also use hiding items.”

He jumped up and flew towards Heena.

Heena reflexively placed her hand on Kang Jin-hyeon.

“Are you sure you can’t? Wouldn’t it be better to have someone by your side rather than walking around alone?”

“Well… that…”

It was really difficult to refuse Kang Jin-hyeon’s earnest request as he grew smaller.

‘He’s handsome and cute too!’

…It was very difficult, at least for Heena.

‘Ugh, I don’t know!’

In the end, Heena had no choice but to close her eyes tightly and nod.

“great!”

I saw Kang Jin-hyeon’s eyes sparkle at the affirmation.

However, Heena was not an easy person either.

“instead! “There are conditions!”

“What conditions do you mean?”

“That’s…”

Heena glanced behind her, where her luggage was.

Heena was greatly impressed.

“It suits you so well!”

It was an extremely joyful voice.

And Kang Jin-hyeon hypnotized himself by saying that he could endure this much for Hee-na’s happiness.

“…thank you. “The clothes fit you well.”

“Iknow, right! “I bought it on a whim, and I’m glad it fit Jinhyeon perfectly!”

“Yes…”

Heena happily looked down at Kang Jin-hyeon, who was dressed as a stuffed animal.

Wearing fluffy clothes made Kang Jin-hyeon look like a one-span teddy bear.

In particular, the two round ears sticking up from the hood pressed down on the head were very cute.

‘It’s small and cute.’

However, the face seen at first glance under the hood was a little dark… but Heena, who was blinded by cuteness, did not notice such trivial facts at all.

“If I walk around like this, people will think I’m a fur doll, right?”

“But this is too much…”

Kang Jin-hyeon looked a little dissatisfied, but Heena couldn’t take her eyes off him.

“Oh, it suits you so well. Of course, the completion of fashion is the face, and no matter what Jinhyun wears, he looks cute… no, handsome. Heena, you really bought this well.”

In the end, she even praised herself for deciding to buy doll clothes.

‘Heena likes it like that.’

Those eyes were shining so brightly that Kang Jin-hyeon tried to suppress his gloomy mood.

Besides, isn’t the point of Heena’s comment being that ‘Kang Jin-hyeon is handsome’?

When I thought about it that way, I felt a little excited.

Heena, who was praising herself for a while, put Kang Jin-hyeon, who had become furry, into a small tote bag.

The bag was loosely woven with rattan, a material that allowed Kang Jin-hyeon to see the outside from the inside.

“Jinhyeon, it won’t be noticeable if you move around a little in the bag, but… please stay as quiet as possible.”

“All right. “There won’t be any trouble.”

Kang Jin-hyeon sat with his back against the corner of the bag. At the same time, a low sigh came out.

‘One day, Heena may think of me as nothing more than a pet doll.’

Is it just an illusion that I feel like the longer the curse lasts, the more I lose my dignity as a human being named Kang Jin-hyeon day by day…?

He desperately hoped that this trip to the United States would achieve good results and that he would be able to regain his original body as soon as possible.

Only then will he be able to properly regain his rational charm that was lost due to cuteness…

Kang Jin-hyeon has many things planned to do once he is freed from this curse.

The area around the hotel was very clean and there was a lot to see.

In particular, what caught Heena’s attention the most was the free beach scenery.

Young men and women with healthy tans were walking around the beach in very hot clothes.

“Wow…”

Heena let out an exclamation without realizing it at that spectacular(?) and then covered her mouth in shock.

‘Everyone is amazing!’

As my eyes were wide open, purely mesmerized by the physical beauty of people, someone called Heena.

He was a young man with a nice-looking appearance.

“You look hot!”

Thanks to the interpretation item attached behind the ear, unfamiliar languages were naturally converted into Korean.

“Would you like some ice cream?”

He pointed at the words ‘ICE CREAM’ written on a small cart.

“It’s refreshing and delicious.”

The smile showing his teeth was quite nice. Anyone who touts a customer like this would have no choice but to pass over.

“Give me one.”

Heena paid the price and accepted the ice cream cone.

“have a good day!”

I waved at them to send them a cheerful greeting.

Heena slowly walked along the beach while licking her soft ice cream.

The ice cream melted quickly in the hot sunlight and ran thickly between my fingers, but it was okay.

That too was a part of this moment, along with the smell of the sea and the touch of sunlight.

Heena forgot everything for a moment and enjoyed her freedom.

Until Kang Jin-hyeon whispered a somewhat shameless question.

“Heena, do you like looking at your naked body?”

“yes?”

“Because you watch the people on the beach closely… I thought you liked people with bulging muscles more. “The man who just sold ice cream was also quite muscular.”

Jinhyeon Kang muttered really seriously.

“Actually, something like that is just excess muscle for show. In order to use it in actual combat, it is better to maintain a slimmer body than that…”

It was a very quiet voice, but I could clearly hear what was being said.

Heena’s face turned bright red.

“Oh no! That’s not it! “What on earth are you looking at me for?”

It was true that I was impressed by people’s unhesitating clothing and behavior.

It is true that my mouth dropped open because it was a sight that is not commonly seen in Korea.

But…

‘In Jinhyeon’s eyes, do I look like a pervert who steals pictures of people’s bodies?’

It was very unfair to be subjected to strange suspicions by Kang Jin-hyeon.

Jin-hyeon Kang even seemed to be under the illusion that the reason Hee-na bought ice cream was because of the young man’s muscular body.

“it’s okay. This is something I just need to work on a little more…”

Heena lowered her voice and shouted into the bag at the absurd sound.

“No, what are you trying to do?”

“The body…”

“That’s not it! Mr. Jinhyeon is still good enough… no, not this!”

Heena walked toward a deserted place to vent her unfair feelings.

In the meantime, I lost my attention for a moment, lost my footing, and almost fell forward.

“evil!”

The moment she stumbled, someone grabbed Heena’s shoulders and straightened her up.

“Thank you.”

I was sighing in relief and saying thank you when I heard an interested voice from overhead.

“You carry around a cute doll.”

Goosebumps appeared on Heena’s back.
