The Homemaker of the Dungeon - Chapter 181
Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 181
A bitter wind seeped through the torn gloves. A chill crept in, and my limbs became increasingly dull.
It would have been nice to have a place to hide, but there was snow everywhere.
Fabian, the only human with color among the white monsters on the snow field, stood out too much.
In addition, he suffered injuries. Red blood stains were left wherever I stepped.
Monsters have surrounded him, using him as a plaything.
Fabian Atkins gritted his teeth.
“Damn it, Fabian Atkins gets killed like this every now and then? “I can’t die like this!”
He shouted and created dozens of ice spear blades and threw them away.
Cash!
Slut! The monsters instantly took a step back due to the sharp chill.
But that was only for a moment. The monsters rushed towards him with a screeching sound.
But there was no way to stop the attack.
‘I’m out of magic power.’
There was nowhere to run. Behind us is a tall snowy mountain… The escape route has already been completely blocked for a long time.
Perhaps because he lost so much blood, his vision was blurry.
There was only one person who came to mind when I was about to die.
‘What happens to her without me?’
There was no such situation in his plan. My eyesight became dizzy.
In an instant, the shadows of the monsters appeared overhead, and Fabian’s eyes widened in the face of death.
And….
“Eh, I don’t know!”
Someone grabbed my shoulder and I was thrown backwards, accompanied by a familiar voice.
‘Ugh!’
In an instant, I felt a pain that made my head pound.
This is because he fell mercilessly onto his injured shoulder.
“…!”
The first time he came to his senses was when he felt someone holding his injured shoulder and spraying a potion on him.
“…who who?”
As soon as I could barely speak my voice, I heard a woman’s voice.
“Stay still!”
It was not a language my ears were familiar with. However, since he always wore an interpreter item, he was able to understand the meaning.
“If you spray the potion incorrectly, it will stick to the wound misaligned. If you don’t want to lose weight, stay still. By the way, Jinhyeon, when this person’s wounds heal, please move him inside.”
A male voice was heard one after another.
“But we can’t let an outsider die like this…”
“We saved him.”
“I am against bringing it inside the house. “It’s dangerous.”
“Look at that. My hands and feet are shaking. “I’m going to die of hypothermia in the snow before I can even open my tent and sleeping bag.”
Fabian looked down at his hands at that sound. Even with my blurred vision, I could see the dead skin, like a corpse.
This is because he lost a lot of blood in the extremely cold place.
Fabian looked at the man and woman arguing over me.
I couldn’t see his face, and all I could tell was that he was wearing colorful winter clothes.
‘Am I hallucinating?’
If you were dressed like that in this snowy field, you would likely be attacked by monsters…
That was the end of my thoughts.
The tattered body could no longer support the spirit.
‘…What kind of situation is this?’
He lost his mind with doubts.
* * *
Fabian Atkins blinked his blurry eyes and fainted, and Heena urged Jinhyeon Kang.
“evil! People die! Jinhyeon, hurry up!”
“I fainted. Class A potion was poured. And Fabian Atkins is quite a capable awakener. “I won’t die at this level.”
“No, but this person’s face is turning pale?”
As Heena pointed out, Fabian’s face was turning from pale to black.
Given the situation, I couldn’t be stubborn anymore.
“…All right.”
Jinhyeon Kang sighed and wrapped Fabian around his shoulder. It was a somewhat careless attitude to move an injured person who was bleeding profusely.
It almost seemed more sincere to carry a bag of rice.
But instead of pointing out his attitude, Heena sighed.
‘I’m glad I was able to save it. If I leave it in a warm place and give it some more potion, I’ll be able to wake up fine, right?’
At the same time, I stared outside the red line, that is, outside the ‘home sweet home’ safe zone.
Crrrrr!
Kuaaaaang!
Monsters with white fur were sniffing and turning over piles of snow with red blood stains remaining.
It is wandering around looking for the person who was standing there just a moment ago.
It was an eerie sight that chilled every corner of my heart, but Heena wasn’t really scared.
‘It’s safe here.’
This is because I firmly believed in the home sweet home safe zone.
Even if you knew the location and found it, this was a place that completely distorted your cognitive abilities.
There was no way a monster that didn’t know the existence of ‘Home Sweet Home’ could find it.
Meanwhile, Heena looked at the blood stains at her feet and sighed in relief.
‘Wow, you almost saw someone die right in front of you, right? Someone who knows that too!’
It was truly a coincidence that I came to this snowy dungeon today.
To be precise, if it weren’t for Kang Jin-hyeon’s suggestion, he wouldn’t have come here.
Heena recalled her conversation with Jinhyeon Kang.
‘I definitely miss summer in winter and winter in summer. Since the weather continues to be hot, I want to see snow.’
‘Then shall we go see the snow?’
‘How can we go see snow in this weather?’
‘Isn’t there a dungeon? ‘Wouldn’t it be okay to move while thinking of a snowy field?’
‘Oh, that’s right!’
It was a pretty reasonable offer.
Heena and Jinhyeon Kang quickly put on their winter clothes and opened the front door.
I opened the door while thinking of a snowy scene, and as expected, a dungeon that was most similar to my imagination unfolded before my eyes.
‘It’s snow! ‘It’s so pretty here!’
Heena was so excited that she scooped up snow with her gloved hands and sprinkled it in the sky. As I stood under the fluttering snow, my heart felt as if it had opened up.
‘…yes. It looks very nice.’
Kang Jin-hyeon also smiled, rolling his eyes as if he liked this place.
It was a handsome smile that made all the snow on the snowy field melt.
The person who has this kind of person as their lover must be really happy…
‘…No, no. ‘Stop thinking about this!’
Heena slapped his cheek to get his attention.
Anyway, Heena enjoyed a quiet time in the snow with Jinhyeon Kang.
After returning from the United States, Kang Jin-hyeon was very busy.
Thanks to this, it’s been a long time since I had time alone with Heena.
‘Mr. Heena.’
Kang Jin-hyeon looked at Hee-na as if he wanted to say something.
‘What happen?’
‘I have something to give you… no, no.’
In an instant, Kang Jin-hyeon’s expression hardened. At the same time, the pink atmosphere was broken.
At the same time, Heena’s expression became serious.
‘Jinhyeon?’
‘Something is getting closer.’
‘Is it a swarm of monsters?’
‘well.’
Soon, the identity of Soran was revealed.
‘…person?’
The man was covered in blood and looked very exhausted, as if he had been chased by monsters for a long time.
He came close to the safe zone of ‘Home Sweet Home’, bleeding.
Then the man’s face was revealed and Heena could not help but widen her eyes.
‘Fabian Atkins?’
Because it was a face that I knew so well that I was even sick of it.
Fabian’s eyes were shining as if he sensed that death was imminent.
A swarm of monsters rushed towards him…!
There was no time to think about it for long.
‘Eh, I don’t know!’
Heena stretched out her arms with all her might and pulled Fabian into the safe zone.
Then, I received a potion from Kang Jin-hyeon, treated him, and brought him into the house.
‘It wouldn’t be happy at all from Jinhyeon’s perspective, but…’
Of course, it wasn’t that I couldn’t understand Kang Jinhyeon’s position.
Not only did he have bad personal feelings toward Fabian… but more than anything, he was worried about Heena’s abilities being revealed.
Heena sighed softly.
‘But how do you watch people die?’
Heena was not cold-blooded enough to coldly ignore people dying.
‘If I had left it outside, I would have frozen to death!’
If it can be saved, shouldn’t it be saved?
‘I have to think about what to do now.’
Heena kicked up the snow with the tips of her shoes and covered the blood stains that Fabian Atkins had spilled.
Meanwhile, the closed front door opened and a handsome face came out.
“Heena, it’s cold. Please come in.”
“yes! all right!”
Heena ran at a brisk pace towards Jinhyeon Kang, who called her.
* * *
My throat was so burning that it felt like it was going to rip.
“Uh… Ugh.”
As I groaned in pain, the sound of a car moving closer and further away.
Not long after that, someone shouted.
It was a male voice.
“Oh, that’s right. Our baduk player is smart! It also tells people to come to their senses. good job! …Heena! “The person is awake!”
I don’t know exactly what it means, but it seemed right that he was talking about himself.
“Mu water…”
I barely moved my mouth to say the words, but soon my body stood up and something lukewarm touched my lips.
“drink.”
Fabian slowly took the water and drank it. After moistening my dry throat, I finally felt like I could live.
At the same time, my head, which had been frozen in a daze, began to turn.
‘But where am I?’
When I lifted my heavy eyelids, what I saw was a clean room.
‘I don’t think it’s a hospital.’
There was no smell of disinfectant and it exuded a sense of life.
“Maybe because I lost a lot of blood there, I couldn’t wake up for a whole day.”
Only then did the memory from before come to mind.
The bloody battle and the bitter cold….
‘I almost died in the snowy dungeon.’
The moment the monsters rushed towards him, someone pulled him back.
“…Did you save me?”
Fabian raised his head and looked at his benefactor’s face.
And I couldn’t hide my surprise at the very familiar face that was revealed.
“Hee hee na?”
Heena scratched her cheek with a shy expression.
“yes. It’s me. “I can’t bear to watch you die…”
Heena sighed and muttered various words before taking out a small bottle of potion from her arms and handing it to her.
“I’ll explain later. Let’s take the potion first. “I gave him a few bottles, but he spilled a lot… It would be better to eat it himself.”
“This is…”
Fabian looked down at what he was holding in his hand.
‘Class A potion?’
No, it wasn’t an ordinary A-level potion. It was a top grade A potion, equivalent to a semi-S grade.
‘I obviously entered the dungeon alone, but how could there be people there? And why on earth is Heena here and where was she before that?’
Instead of uttering the question that was welling up in his throat, Fabian took the potion and drank it.
First of all, the priority was to restore my body, which had become curious, naive, and a rag.
