The Homemaker of the Dungeon - Chapter 152
Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 152
It seemed like Heena wasn’t the only one whose system window popped up.
“uh? What is this! “It’s awesome, right?”
Kim Suna continued to be amazed as she swallowed the rice in her mouth.
“Hey this… wow. oh my god. Wow….”
Meanwhile, the system window was busy displaying status changes.
Etc….
The effects of the collected items that Heena had gathered all at once seemed to come together.
Now that I think about it, all the plants I collected were labeled as ‘edible’, ‘effective’, or ‘delicious’.
‘Plus, I also received a buff to my housekeeper skill…’
It was strange that I didn’t expect this result.
When I looked down at the rice ball in my hand, the status window popped up.
<Roasted rice balls mixed with various wild vegetables and mushrooms (A): Rice balls made with fresh plants and mushrooms freshly dug out of the dungeon. It was roasted over a fire to add flavor.>
Below that, the names of the ingredients and their efficacy were written in a row.
“As expected, I think he has a great sense of humor. “I feel stronger after eating it, right?”
Kwon Jun-yong stuck out his tongue.
This meant that it was effective even for non-awakened people, although the status window did not appear.
“Why is it so delicious even though there is only grass inside?”
Kwon Hwan-woong also gave a thumbs up and even Kwon Da-hye nodded in agreement.
“Wow…. this is awesome. Absolutely… wow, it tastes amazing and it works! Heena, what on earth is this?”
Kim Su-na admired it for a while and then grabbed Hee-na.
Kang Jin-hyeon gently pushed Kim Soo-na away.
“It’s rude to ask about other people’s abilities carelessly, Suna Kim.”
I didn’t forget to subtly hit the wall. It was the strict and principled attitude I saw when we first met.
Heena tapped Kang Jin-hyeon’s arm and peeked her face out from behind his back.
“no. It’s okay to say this much. Because you’ve already seen the results. “You’re curious, but it’s a bit unfair to leave people guessing.”
“If it’s okay with Heena… yes.”
Kang Jin-hyeon stepped away, looking a little sullen. Hee-na whispered to Kang Jin-hyeon.
“Even if you seduce me somewhere else, I won’t go anywhere, so don’t be too wary.”
Kang Jin-hyeon’s face brightened at those words.
“…yes!”
I guess he was worried that if he revealed Heena’s abilities, he would go somewhere else.
‘Because I’m the type of person who worries a lot.’
Heena giggled to herself and explained her abilities to people.
“The awakening class is a job related to food. That’s why we were able to distinguish and harvest edible plants…”
The explanation was explained within a range that was acceptable to be moderately revealing.
“I think the reason the food I made appeared on the status window and had a special effect was because I made it with ingredients found in the dungeon.”
Kim Su-na quickly understood and said, “Oh!”
“but. Beef jerky made from monster meat also displays a status window. “Although the buffs don’t apply all at once like this.”
He also added that he had heard that some of the high-end beef jerky had special effects, like this rice ball.
“Anyway, thanks to Heena, I get to eat something precious! Honey, this is really good. “Please say thank you quickly.”
Everyone said something to Kim Suna’s whisper.
“Oh… I thought it was just a matter of mood, but it turned out to be really good. I really enjoyed the meal.”
“It was really delicious, sister.”
“Oh my, I feel like I’m well rested even though I just ate. As expected, the Awakened’s abilities seem to be unique. “The food is also extraordinary.”
The faces of people who had been drooping from fatigue were filled with vitality.
Although it wasn’t the situation I had intended, it was a scene that made me feel proud.
Heena clenched her fists.
‘After all, people have to eat! ‘Carbohydrates are the best!’
The entrance to the cave was hidden deep in the grass, so the chances of being noticed by monsters were almost zero.
Thanks to this, the group was able to eat rice balls and take a good rest.
Even Kang Jin-hyeon, who had been on edge the entire time, seemed to have calmed down a bit.
It was almost my first languid rest since falling into the dungeon.
Suddenly, Heewon opened her mouth.
“No, but that’s true. The monster that appears is a zombie, but why is the background a European mountain road? “I think I mixed up the genres a bit wrong.”
It was a random story.
However, Kim Soo-na also grumbled as if she agreed with Hee-won’s opinion.
“Iknow, right. When it comes to zombies, shouldn’t it be in an urban setting? Or at least if you’re a zombie, shouldn’t there be at least level ground? “There is a problem with the historical research of this dungeon.”
“These days, there are so many zombie movies, people are running around in the mountains and on trains. It doesn’t cover the background. “I guess that’s why.”
Kwon Da-hye, who was sitting quietly, muttered sullenly. He was silent the whole time, but after eating rice balls, he seemed to feel a little better.
The group had a pointless discussion about how far we should protect the historical facts of zombies.
It wasn’t a bad topic to forget about the tiring reality for a while.
It was a time when we were sitting together in a cave and talking about various things.
There was a rustling sound of rustling through the grass, and then something black crashed! And fell into the cave.
“What is it?”
“Monston?”
While everyone was embarrassed, only Kang Jin-hyeon did not lose his composure.
“Please step back.”
He took out a dagger and cut the neck of the black lump.
Crouch…
The black figure’s breath was cut off with the sound of boiling blood.
Kang Jin-hyeon touched the corpse and looked at the status window.
“…It’s a deer.”
Heena also sneakily approached and opened the status window.
<Deer (D): A mountain animal. It is an animal whose meat tastes very good.>
…It was really a deer.
It even had a sign saying, ‘The meat tastes very good.’
Anyone who saw it was shouting, ‘Roast this and eat it.’
Kang Jin-hyeon seemed to have made the same decision.
“I guess we can use it as food. Since it is food made from dungeon by-products, it can be stored for a long time in the inventory window.”
“Iknow, right. If I bake it, it might have additional effects…”
We were slowly running out of food. It was a very good thing.
“Suddenly a deer falls from the sky and all sorts of things happen. Does this mean we should eat meat and be strong?”
It was the moment when Heewon was wandering around the deer, scratching his cheek…
Something tumbled down from the entrance of the den.
“…What is this again?”
Heena picked up something that had rolled to her feet. A status window immediately appeared.
<Raspberries(?): Sweet and sour raspberries that grow deep in the mountains. It has the effect of activating physical abilities. There doesn’t seem to be any harm in eating it.>
Although the rating was a question mark and the explanation was lengthy, it was a raspberry that was okay to eat anyway.
And each egg is as big as two fingers!
Kim Su-na, who had already approached me, muttered as she picked up the strawberries that had fallen on the floor.
“This is really cool. “Food is falling from the sky… Even if it’s a coincidence, isn’t this almost like winning the lottery?”
Then I gasped and raised my head.
“no way! Is it because I got the luck buff? Among the rice ball buffs mentioned earlier, there was one that increased your luck stat! “Roughly ten times that!”
Heena frowned.
“You’re saying you’re running out of food because of the luck buff?”
“If you look at the probability, it’s true that the zombies that are spread out outside will fall. But you’re out of venison and raspberries? “Doesn’t this mean that you hit it with your luck stat?”
After hearing it, it seemed quite plausible. No, to be precise… there was no way to explain the strange phenomenon other than this explanation.
“I guess the S-class lucky clover is magical.”
Heewon also agreed with Kim Suna’s opinion and was impressed.
A small acorn fell on Heewon’s head.
It was perfect timing.
“ouch!”
As if someone were to say yes!
After that, small quails and acorns continued to fall into the oyster.
Heena and her group were busy collecting gifts that fell from the sky for a while.
* * *
The sun has set and the time has come for the monsters to become quiet.
The group enjoyed a pleasant rest for half a day and then set off on their journey again.
“Please eat some of this before you leave.”
Heena distributed some of the raspberries she had collected to the group.
The grade was a little questionable, but since it was explained that it was okay to eat, it didn’t seem like there was anything bad about it.
‘Plus, since it activates your physical abilities, it might be helpful for hiking at night.’
I didn’t forget to talk to the siblings Dahye Kwon and Hwanwoong Kwon who were walking side by side.
“You guys eat some of this too.”
These are children who have been sleeping in the open for several days and have seen many harsh scenes.
I was grateful that they followed along politely without making a fuss in an environment where it was difficult for even adults to remain calm.
“Dahye, you eat too. “Do you have no appetite?”
Heena held out a raspberry to Kwon Da-hye, who was walking with her eyes downcast.
“Sister, sister eat too. Heena noona gave it to me. “It’s very delicious.”
Kwon Hwan-woong was also next to him, urging his sister.
“That’s right, Dahye. You keep leaving food and giving it to someone else? Then I got hurt.”
Perhaps because she was at the peak of her sensitivity, Kwon Da-hye would not even eat all the food that was distributed and would just leave it as is.
‘I thought I’d be fine now because I enjoyed the rice balls earlier…’
Heena looked at Kwon Da-hye with worried eyes.
It was at that moment that Dahye Kwon opened her mouth.
“…I don’t like what I’m paying for.”
