The Homemaker of the Dungeon - Chapter 111

Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 111

It took Yuhan quite a long time to calm down his excitement.

He went on a rampage, reciting the basic rules and ethics of research.

Of course, Heena heard it with one ear, passed it on with one ear, and kindly offered him some cold water by hand.

“Drink some cold water and come to your senses.”

Unfortunately, it was necessary to shut up the mouth that was constantly talking about a mission that did not make any sense.

“…okay. You are not an alchemist like us. I don’t understand why you didn’t think about accurately verifying your own talent, but you’re right. “With the intelligence of an average person, they might not have been able to think that far.”

“Average… human… intelligence?”

“okay. “People like you who don’t have great intelligence like me.”

My fists were shaking without my knowledge due to the arrogant, arrogant attitude.

Maybe it was because I was learning attack skills from Kang Jin-hyeon these days, but I felt like I wanted to throw a punch whenever Yuhan was around.

‘That obnoxious head! ‘I want to hit you with one!’

When Yuhan clenched his fist and gave him a gloomy look, he waved his hand in surprise.

“Oh no. So, it means that if you and I cooperate, good results can come out… You have never analyzed your skills from a research perspective.”

They said he was smart, and he seemed to vividly remember the (physical) taste of Heena’s touch.

Yuhan belatedly excused himself and pointed to the kitchen counter.

“Anyway, if there is no data to analyze, we can start accumulating it now. So, let’s see what you’re cooking.”

“good.”

It was a welcome sound while listening. Heena opened her face wide.

It was much better to move my body than to talk about boring things like hypotheses and other things.

‘I’m confident when it comes to cooking. ‘It’s fun.’

I was a little excited to imagine Yuhan’s mouth wide open at his cooking skills.

“What should we make first?”

Yuhan chimed in next to me.

“How about making seasoned spinach first? “That looks like the most basic dish.”

“Spicy spinach? “Yeah, that’s not a bad idea.”

Well, when you think of spinach, the first thing that comes to mind is spinach seasoned full of fragrant sesame oil.

“Then we’ll start from now on, so watch carefully.”

Heena filled the pot with water and prepared to boil it.

Then wait! A shout was heard.

“why?”

“What is the capacity of the pot? What is the floor size? What is the brand? How many milliliters of water will you put in? …Surely you don’t want to use it without measuring?”

Yuhan, holding a notebook and pen in his hand, asked a series of questions. Heena answered indifferently.

“How do you measure water to blanch spinach? All you have to do is add enough to cover it and boil it.”

Then Yuhan’s eyes became big as if he was shocked.

“There is no such thing as ‘moderate’ in my life! “Even if just one condition is wrong, the properties of a material can change completely!”

“That must be the same when making reagents. “You can put this in a wide pot and blanch it, or put it in a narrow pot and blanch it, and you get the same spinach salad.”

Yuhan said that and stopped Yuhan from putting water on the gas stove.

“Cooking is also a kind of science! “You have to follow the methodology used in science!”

“Are you talking like that even though you know how to cook?”

“no.”

I thought so. He looked like he couldn’t even cook a proper meal for himself.

Heena was excited and turned her head.

If someone else had said the same thing, I might have listened attentively, but perhaps because the other person was Yuhan, who had the worst first impression, it didn’t make any difference.

“If you don’t know how to do something, stay still.”

“Hey hey! “But if you decide to do joint research, shouldn’t you listen to what I have to say?”

Yuhan wandered around the kitchen with a frown on his pale face.

Then he noticed a bowl pushed to the corner of the counter.

“What’s this?”

It was a spinach frittata that was hidden because it was rated B. Yuhan held the bowl and looked at the food.

“Oh, that’s…! “It’s a ruined food!”

“It doesn’t look like much… The color and shape are fine.”

“but…! Hey, don’t look!”

Heena tried to take the plate away, but he was the first to check the status window and notice something strange.

“what? Why is this rated B? The thing on the table over there was S-rank. “Skill failed?”

“no. “It’s not a skill failure.”

Yuhan lifted his eyebrows as if he had heard an interesting story.

“But why is there such a big difference in grades?”

Heena finally pouted and confessed the truth when asked a question that hit the nail on the head.

“I don’t know. “I don’t know why this is…”

“I don’t know?”

Seeing Yuhan’s eyes shining brightly, Heena added an excuse without realizing it.

“…Anyway, Guild Leader Ki said that it doesn’t matter if the quality is uneven as long as the buff characteristics are good!”

Yuhan wiggled his eyebrows at Heena’s stuttering appearance.

“Why aren’t you curious about the reason?”

“That’s…”

Of course, I was curious about the reason, so I decided to participate in this joint research.

But I didn’t want to talk about it right now. This is because I felt like I was losing because my opponent was Yuhan.

While Heena was hesitating to answer, Yuhan started to guess the reason why the B-grade frittata was produced by pointing fingers one by one.

“Just looking at it, it’s a manufacturing process issue. From what you said earlier, it seemed like cooking utensils, temperature, and ingredient quantities were roughly handled. So, of course, the results are different every time I make it!”

In the end, Heena’s cooking is not scientific. It was a nagging sound that wasn’t much different from what I had been saying out of excitement before.

“S-class and B-class? The difference is too big. Is this how your skills will improve? “If you are thinking of upgrading your skill to a higher level, you should first reduce the error in the output value used.”

“Do you want to reduce the output value error?”

Heena was taken aback by the unfamiliar terminology, and Yuhan pounded his chest in frustration at the sight.

“When you use a skill, the results must be consistent! Only then will your proficiency properly increase and your skill sophistication will increase! “You really don’t know anything?”

When he looked at her with a truly pitiful expression, Heena burst into tears and screamed.

“How can I figure that out on my own when there’s no one to teach me?”

Even though she became a special awakening class called ‘housekeeper’, Heena was still infinitely close to a civilian.

What Yuhan said may be essential common sense for awakened people, but it was not for Heena.

Even without knowing that, Heena’s unique abilities were useful enough.

“If you think a person doesn’t know something, you should first tell them. Why give them embarrassment?”

Heena snapped at Yuhan.

“Once again, if the research goes wrong, it’s not me who will be disappointed, but you and the Blue Dragon Guild. Actually, I don’t have to go that far. “I applied for this research purely out of curiosity… If I have to work while being criticized like this, I won’t do it.”

I also didn’t forget to show off a lot. The effect was immediate.

“No, I didn’t give you a hug…”

Yuhan was struggling and clenched and opened his palm. And after choosing his words for a while, he turned his head.

“…Isn’t it a waste to let such great abilities rot away without properly developing them?”

Even though the words were the same, they were very different. It was much better to listen to this time.

Heena’s irritation subsided a little.

“They should have said something nice sooner.”

“You seem like a picky person….”

“I told you to be careful with your words.”

“…Tsk.”

Heena glared at the grumbling Yuhan and stood crookedly, crossing her arms.

“So what you’re saying is that the reason my skill results are inconsistent is because I cook with my eyes versus my hands without precise measurements, right?”

“maybe. “I can’t give a definite answer because there is no comparison group.”

“Then the only way to confirm is to try making the same dish in the same way?”

“…joy. “It’s not like I’m completely out of my mind.”

“What did you just say?”

“Yes, what you said was correct!”

“Ugh.”

Anyway, it was like that when we first met, but Yuhan’s behavior was extremely obnoxious. There was no way to say something nice all at once.

‘Should I send him back like this and wait until another alchemist is assigned?’

For a moment, Heena thought about this, but then shook her head.

‘I have to resolve any questions I have when Jinhyeon is not around.’

In addition, Yuhan’s only problem was that he was a bit clumsy, but he seemed to be very good in terms of ability.

Kang Mok-hyeon, the head of the human resources team, assured him that he was a talented person who would be of help to Hee-na.

Heena quickly gathered her thoughts and clapped her hands.

“Now then, shall we begin?”

“What do you start with?”

“What can I do? I mean cooking using the ‘scientific method’ you mentioned. “I heard you’re so good… let’s find out how to fix my problem.”

“okay! “I’ll show you how great I am!”

Yuhan, who had been shocked by Heena’s provocation that was not a provocation, immediately brightened up.

He seemed to be worried that Heena would not do research with him.

Heena clicked her tongue inwardly at the crude but very simple alchemist.

‘Tsk. ‘You should have done better a long time ago.’
