The Homemaker of the Dungeon - Chapter 202

Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 202

* * *

“Today’s training is scheduled to end 30 minutes later than usual!”

“thank god. “I can do this while I catch my breath.”

“Hey, sit down and get some rest. “Wipe off some sweat.”

“This… even topped with cole slaw.”

Heena turned over a huge, huge salad and tossed it with a large shovel.

It was a task that required quite a bit of strength, but Heena, who had now become an A-level housekeeper, had improved her stats so much that she was able to do it with ease.

‘Being strong is the best! ‘I never get tired!’

Heena groaned and stretched only after she had completely mixed the coleslaw.

“Oh, feel refreshed!”

The cooking team members who saw Heena like that shook their heads.

“Heena sometimes looks like a workaholic.”

“It’s not like I’m a workaholic, I really think I’m a workaholic.”

Naomi, a member of the cooking team, was worried about Heena as she wiped the sweat from her forehead with a white towel.

“Aren’t you overdoing it? “I heard there’s a lot of work to do besides preparing meals.”

“Manage the break room, mediate hunters’ accidents, make snacks, and put them to sleep…”

“Eh, it’s okay.”

Heena waved her hand.

“The hunters are all kind and decent at this level.”

When I think back to the commotion that occurred at the Hunter Association meeting held by the Blue Dragon Guild about half a year ago, the hunters here were no different from angels.

‘There are so many people, but accidents only happen a few dozen times a day. Plus, they clean up the surrounding dirt themselves! Oh, there’s almost nothing to break because there’s only trees around.’

…Maybe it’s because I had too few expectations.

Anyway, it’s been about a month since I arrived on the island where the SSS-class gate will open.

Heena had become a celebrity on the island.

‘How did it end up like this…?’

External communication was impossible on the island. This is because the early activation of the SSS-level dungeon was a top secret.

For modern people who are accustomed to the stimulation provided by the Internet, this situation can be seen as nothing short of torture.

One hunter said this:

‘evil! I want to go into the dungeon quickly! Even if the internet isn’t working there, you can still do a lot of fighting, so it’s not boring! I want to risk my life and fight until my blood boils! ‘Everything needs stimulation!’

…Anyway, since there was no internet, the only things people could enjoy were simple games, reading, and conversation.

In the midst of all this, there was something that brightened up the dull daily lives of hunters… and that was the ‘pleasure of eating.’

On the first day after arriving on the island, Heena’s mixed coffee was a sensation. It became such a hot topic that coffee mix was added separately to the imported materials.

However, the hunters who tasted Heena’s coffee were not satisfied with the taste, and Heena brewed coffee several more times for them.

In an instant, the rumor spread throughout the island that ‘there is a person whose taste in cooking is so great that it makes your eyes light up.’

Hunters who were thirsty for stimulation flocked like a cloud, curious about Heena’s taste.

And they tasted a new world….

‘I knew this would happen one day.’

Kang Jin-hyeon muttered gloomily, as if he was half resigned.

Not long after that, Heena was called from headquarters.

Heena was asked if she could apply her cooking skills to cooking large meals.

‘Because they are advanced hunters, they have very picky tastes. Therefore, there are many people who are not satisfied with the meals served, but I hope that Lee Hee-na’s skills will increase overall satisfaction.’

There was absolutely no reason to refuse.

If Heena could raise the hunters’ morale with the ‘This is the taste of home’ skill, Heena was willing to cooperate as much as she wanted.

Boosting the morale of fellow hunters also meant Kang Jin-hyeon’s safety!

‘Plus, there’s a huge salary!’

Heena was now confident that she would not raise an eyebrow at a reasonable amount of money, but the price proposed by the higher-ups was beyond her imagination.

‘It was too much money to refuse…’

…That’s how Heena joined the cooking team as an assistant.

There wasn’t much to do. Even though they only provided simple help such as chopping ingredients and seasoning the food, their taste skills were reflected to some extent.

Of course, it was not as tasty as the food Heena made from start to finish, but the hunters were quite satisfied with the improvement in the quality of the meal.

That wasn’t the only thing that ignited Heena’s fame.

Its popularity grew rapidly after it was made and distributed in the kitchen as simple snacks to friendly hunters.

In addition, Heena suggested placing a bed in the lounge and generously provided comfortable bed skills.

This was also to ensure that the hunters maintained their best condition.

‘That way, people will protect Jinhyeon!’

Thanks to this, Heena was having a hectic day every day.

“I think the cookies are all cold, so I’ll grab them and go out!”

Heena divided the cookies she had baked for today’s snack into a large container.

“Heena’s hands are really fast. “I can’t believe I made that mountain of cookies all by myself.”

“It’s thanks to my housekeeper skills.”

“but. “You can’t see your hands when you’re concentrating.”

“you’re welcome.”

We said our goodbyes with various jokes.

Heena hid the cookie box in a corner of the lounge and headed to the men’s dorm. It was to meet Kang Jin-hyeon.

The hostel building was quiet. This is because as soon as training is over, everyone grabs their hungry stomachs and goes to eat.

‘I guess Mr. Jinhyeon has arrived?’

Heena knocked and opened the door to Kang Jin-hyeon’s dorm.

For reference, he was one of the few S-class hunters, so he was using a single room.

‘Thank goodness. If I had a roommate, things would have been complicated.’

That’s because Kang Jin-hyeon goes back to ‘Home Sweet Home’ with Hee-na and eats together.

I told people around me that I would provide a separate lunch box for Kang Jin-hyeon.

There was no backlash. In the first place, Heena was the person who came to manage Kang Jin-hyeon’s condition. It was a situation where he had to be grateful just to help out with various tasks for the hunters.

“Are you here?”

As soon as she entered the dorm, Kang Jin-hyeon greeted Hee-na with a moist look.

‘I’m going to sweat again in the afternoon anyway, so I wash up every time.’

The wet Kang Jin-hyeon had a strangely eye-catching charm, which Heena was thankful for.

“What did you train for today?”

“We trained at the beach to prepare for water-type demonic beasts. It was hard work. Heena, how was your day today?”

“It’s always the same for me. I came here preparing lunch and snacks with the cooking team. Today’s snack is cookies. It was cooked very deliciously. “I brought some, so I’ll give them to you after dinner.”

Heena opened the front door of Home Sweet Home, talking to herself.

「☆Welcome★」

As soon as she entered the front door, Oh-saek welcomed Hee-na.

“I waited! The food is getting cold! Come quickly and sit down!”

Heewon was also pleased and sat the two of them down at the table. The food Heena had prepared yesterday was warmed up nicely.

“I’ll eat well, brother.”

“All you have to do is take out what you made and put it away, so what about greetings?”

Heewon scratched his head with a sheepish expression and picked up his spoon.

…No, I tried to listen.

Heewon jumped up from her seat when a system notification flashed before her eyes.

“Ahh! “This fucking world tree!”

Heewon gritted his teeth and shouted.

“…Oh my, our pretty and cute world tree!”

With that, he got up from his seat and quickly ran towards the greenhouse.

“You guys eat first and go! Leave your dishes in the sink! “I’ll do the dishes!”

Heewon disappeared into the greenhouse with a faint cry.

Cha-jap, cha-jap, cha-jap….

Baduki also ran stumbling after Hee-won. I was worried because the root didn’t seem to be in good condition.

Heena looked at the greenhouse door with pity.

“Oppa, are you eating properly? “I don’t think it’s easy to raise a world tree… Baduki also looks a bit dull.”

“That’s right. I’m concerned. Should I leave some recovery potion behind?”

“Then thank you.”

It seemed like even two bodies wouldn’t be enough for Heewon to eat two lunches and dinners and to raise a child to suit the taste of the world tree.

‘Should I have stayed here…? No, Jinhyeon still comes first. ‘Jinhyeon’s safety is at stake here.’

After all, the comfort of a lover comes first rather than the overwork of a relative.

Hee-na gathered herself together and did not take into account the thoughts that would make Hee-won cry out of sorrow if she heard them.

It was an ordinary day.

17. SSS-level dungeon and housekeeper

Kang Jin-hyeon cut down a huge monster with bloody force. It was the final blow.

As soon as the monster was attacked, it instantly turned into smoke and dispersed. This is because it was a fake made with illusion magic.

“Do you feel like you have particularly good energy today?”

Summer came over and slapped him on the back. He was an S-class hunter in charge of Kang Jin-hyeon’s rearguard.

“If it stays like this, there’s nothing to worry about. “Everyone is in excellent condition and fits together perfectly.”

Amal also nodded in satisfaction. He was also an S-class hunter and was playing a leader role in commanding the S-class hunters.

The focus of training over the past few months was the team-up process for S-class hunters.
