The Homemaker of the Dungeon - Chapter 199

Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 199

Kang Jin-hyeon explained the situation while breaking into a cold sweat.

The SSS-level dungeon in the Pacific is scheduled to open in three months. That’s why I became a member of the dungeon raid… It was a story with tremendous content.

Heena’s face turned pale in an instant.

“Tt tt triple S dungeon? “It’s incredibly dangerous!”

“it’s okay. “We will gather the most capable hunters from each country and form a national alliance to form a punitive force.”

“But S-class dungeons are not easy, and this is your first time in an SSS-class dungeon!”

I didn’t know the types, properties, or environment of the dungeon monsters. Kang Jin-hyeon walks into such a dangerous place!

‘No matter how talented your colleagues are, what do they do? If you make a mistake….’

If you make a mistake, you are likely to be killed.

Of course Heena knew. Because it is a dangerous dungeon, Kang Jin-hyeon, the best hunter, must go.

‘but…! Just because you’re an S-class hunter doesn’t mean you’re not in danger. It’s not like it doesn’t hurt. ‘What should I do if Jinhyeon doesn’t come back after going into the dungeon?’

Kang Jin-hyeon was Heena’s precious lover and family member. I never wanted to lose it.

‘Now I can’t imagine life without Jinhyeon.’

In less than a year since we met, he has become a very important person to Heena.

As I thought about this and that, my eyes naturally got teary.

“Who are crying…!”

Kang Jin-hyeon was very embarrassed when he saw the tears welling up in Hee-na’s eyes.

“What if I tell you something so important the day before I leave?”

“I’m sorry, Heena. “I should have told her a long time ago… but I couldn’t tell her because I was afraid she would be sad.”

Kang Jin-hyeon was embarrassed and gently rubbed Heena’s back.

“It’s too dangerous… If something happens to Jinhyeon, I’ll be sad. What will I do?”

“Nothing to worry about will happen. “I promise.”

“But…”

“Please trust me, Heena.”

Heena felt his touch and quietly sorted out her complicated thoughts.

Dozens of thoughts swirled before my eyes, mixed with countless emotions such as sadness, worry, disappointment, and affection.

The two lovers leaned against each other in silence for a long time.

After a long silence, Heena slowly opened her mouth.

“Of course, I have no doubt that Jinhyeon is a strong person.”

“yes. “I will return safely and unscathed.”

“But I can’t be reassured by these lip service promises. “Jinhyeon’s efforts don’t mean the danger will be avoided.”

“….”

Kang Jin-hyeon kept his mouth shut at the sharp criticism. Heena chewed her lips.

“Mr. Jinhyeon.”

“yes. Heena.”

“I also want to follow Jinhyeon.”

“…yes?”

Kang Jin-hyeon took a deep breath at Heena’s declaration. He rubbed his ears, as if wondering if there was something wrong with them.

“I didn’t hear it wrong. It’s real and sincere. “I also want to follow Jinhyeon.”

“Is that absolutely impossible…!”

“Please listen to me for a moment.”

Heena cut off Kang Jin-hyeon, who was excited. It was an unusually firm tone.

“I’m not being ridiculously stubborn. It doesn’t mean that I will follow Jinhyeon into the dungeon. “I know very well that if I do that, it will only be a burden.”

Heena sighed softly and leaned her head against Jinhyeon Kang’s shoulder.

“You said we’ll get together and train until the gate opens? It’s been 3 months. In the meantime, I will be by Jinhyeon’s side and help manage his condition. “SSS-level dungeons are dangerous places, so you need to be in the best condition possible.”

Training for three months meant not being touched by Heena for three months.

‘Entering a dungeon without being able to eat or rest properly…’

That would never be possible.

Heena might not be able to help him fight, but she could at least help him be in top condition.

“I will contact the guild leader right away. “Maybe he will allow it.”

Heena’s job was to manage the guild’s two S-class hunters. To be honest, it was definitely not something outside of authority.

“It’s dangerous.”

“I’m not even going into a dungeon, so what’s the danger? After all, not only hunters who enter the dungeon have to be there. “I understand that there is a response team and an auxiliary team outside the gate.”

It was like that. Combat hunters were not the only ones needed to conquer dungeons.

A response team was also needed in case of emergency, and numerous people, including medical teams, media teams, and auxiliary teams, guarded the outside of the gate. Heena was saying that she wanted to join that group now.

Kang Jin-hyeon once again tried to stop Hee-na from joining, but he could not break her stubbornness.

“Even if something dangerous happens, I have the ‘Home Sweet Home’ ability, so I can run away.”

In the end, he raised both hands and feet.

“If anything looks even slightly suspicious, they immediately run away. “It’s a promise.”

“all right. Jinhyeon, be careful because he will get out of the way faster than anyone else. “You know that the real danger is not me outside the gate, but Jinhyeon, who will be entering the dungeon, right?”

* * *

Heena was able to join the SSS-level dungeon suppression team without any problems.

As expected, the guild leader welcomed Heena’s presence with open arms.

‘okay. It would be best for this team leader to come along and take care of him. I will ask Hunter Dahye Kwon’s understanding in advance. ‘Because taking care of the Kang Hunter who is going into battle is a priority.’

For reference, Kwon Da-hye, an S-level buffer, did not participate in this SSS-level dungeon subjugation.

Although his abilities were excellent, he was naturally excluded because he had little experience and was too young to participate in a major battle.

“That looks like a garrison camp.”

Heena leaned on the deck railing and pointed at the large island in the distance.

Since the gate was on a Pacific island, the group traveled by boat. This is because there was no suitable place for takeoff and landing to board an airplane.

“I thought of Ulleungdo because they said it was small, but it is incomparably bigger.”

Heena giggled and glanced at the land beyond the sea.

Accommodations built from containers were seen all over the island. People who had arrived in advance were walking around in groups of twos and threes, probably looking around.

It was an island that hid an enormous dungeon gate… but the lively atmosphere was more impressive than scary.

“Hunters from Korea can follow me.”

The group was guided to their accommodation as soon as they disembarked.

There were about 60 people from Korea, including combat hunters and rear support team members.

‘There are only 60 people from Korea, so if people from other countries come, the island might explode.’

It is said that approximately 50 countries participated, so if you add them all together, nearly thousands of people gathered in one space.

Moreover, they are not ordinary people but hunters. It wasn’t surprising if an accident occurred.

There was a reason why the expressions on the faces of those who appeared to be managers were so solemn.

“Let’s go in!”

Accommodations were assigned by country and were 4 people per room. Fortunately, Heena was assigned to the same room as Woo Min-ah.

Except for Woo Min-ah, the other two roommates were A-class hunters named Kim Hee-su and Han Yu-mi.

Woo Min-ah seemed to already be acquainted with Kim Hee-soo and Han Yu-mi.

‘but. Mina is the head of the Blue Dragon Guild strategy team and has a very nice personality.’

Didn’t Hee-na and I become comfortable with each other after only meeting each other twice?

“hello. Please take care of me in the future. “I am not in the combat world, but I came along as a rear support member.”

Heena bowed and exchanged greetings.

“Please take care of me.”

“uh! I, Heena, have seen this on overseas news. It’s so amazing to meet you like this. Please take care of me!”

Fortunately, Kim Hee-soo and Han Yu-mi also had cheerful personalities like Woo Min-ah. It seemed like I would be able to live in the camp without any problems.

“We each have free time until tomorrow morning, so spend your time as you please. “I have work to do, so I won’t leave.”

Woo Min-ah grumbled and left the dorm. There seemed to be a separate meeting at the manager level.

Not long after, Kim Hee-su and Han Yu-mi also left, saying they wanted to look around the accommodation, leaving Heena alone in the room.

Heena looked around the interior of the accommodation, which was filled with two bunk beds and cabinets.

I heard that the preparations were made in a very hasty manner, but other than the fact that four people had to share one bathroom, the environment was not particularly harsh.

Except for space issues, all items were new and high quality.

‘but. Because all high-level hunters are rich.’

Efforts to minimize the complaints of picky hunters were seen here and there.

‘Hmm… Anyway, it’s good. ‘It seems like I’m visiting overseas.’

The weather was a little humid but sunny, and the scenery outside the window was exotic.

“If you look here, you might be able to ease your worries.”

Heena thought of Heewon’s angry face as she rummaged through her suitcase.

‘Even so, Jinhyeon, there’s no need for you to go there too!’

When I first announced that I would be away near a top-tier dungeon for several months, there was no shortage of opposition.

Even the two companion creatures were not favorable to Heena’s decision.

From the beginning, Osaek was a Confucian snail who was sensitive to staying out overnight.

“We are strongly against staying out for long periods of time!”

Even Baduki was lying on the floor and struggling.

I somehow managed to get permission, but I was concerned that I couldn’t properly reconcile with Hee-won because the departure time was so tight.

I sighed heavily and was finishing organizing my bag when something fell out of my luggage.

“uh? What is this?”
