The Homemaker of the Dungeon - Chapter 35

Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 35

“Ah! “I’m so shocked!”

Heena wasn’t the only one who was surprised. The hunter who was talking also started swearing.

In fact, it was an S-class concealment. It was helpful to recognize it.

“We make sure to use purified language within the guild. Do you understand?”

Jinhyeon Kang warned the hunter who cursed with a stern expression. Then he turned his head and his stiff expression softened. This was Heenayong’s expression.

“Is there anything I can help you with?”

“yes?”

“With Heena’s small size, it seems a bit difficult to clean this large area. “Don’t you need any help?”

It wasn’t necessary at all. Additionally, since I received a dressing advantage with an apron and headkerchief, I never felt like cleaning the guild was too much of a burden.

The problem was that my stamina was a little low, but that was quickly resolved by eating rice as a snack.

“Thank you for your willingness to help. But this is what I get paid to do. Plus, I like cleaning and organizing, so I don’t feel like it’s that hard. “I also have cleaning-related skills.”

Heena tried hard to reject Kang Jin-hyeon’s burdensome kindness.

However, Kang Jin-hyeon’s motivation soared to the sky.

“You don’t have to feel burdened. As one of the executives of the Blue Dragon Guild, I also have a duty to work hard to ensure the welfare of our employees.”

There was no way hunters with good ears could not hear this sound. People were whispering loudly.

What is it, Jinhyun Kang must be crazy?

Kang Jin-hyeon paid no heed to their whispers. He displayed the composure of an S-class hunter.

“Do I need to make my bed? “I think I can help you with this.”

He calmly grabbed the blanket and pulled it up. It seemed like a gentle touch, but the blanket screamed.

Sigh!

This was the single scream made when the thick lounge blanket split in half.

“ah.”

Kang Jin-hyeon paused as if he sensed something was wrong. Then, I put down the torn blanket and gently patted the pillow.

However, patting was Kang Jin-hyeon’s idea, and the pillow’s position was a bit different.

puck! puck! pop!

The sound of hitting a punching bag rang out twice, and then the pillow violently oxidized with an explosion sound.

Cotton was leaking out unsightly between the gaping pillowcase. It was a cruel sight.

Heena forgot what to say for a moment and then barely opened her mouth.

“Hunter Kang Jin-hyeon? “What’s going on?”

Actually, I wanted to ask, ‘Are you angry?’ but I couldn’t. This is because if you ask someone who is normally angry if they are angry, they will get really angry.

Moreover, Kang Jin-hyeon was a powerful hunter who could tear people to pieces with a single finger when he got angry.

“….”

Kang Jin-hyeon remained silent in response to Hee-na’s question and lowered his eyes. For some reason, it felt like a shadow had passed over my face.

“Hunter Jinhyeon Kang?”

When I called his name again, Kang Jin-hyeon stuttered and opened his mouth.

“Heena… I didn’t do this on purpose.”

With those last words, Kang Jin-hyeon hurried away from the messed up scene, leaving behind only a blurry afterimage. To put it in simple terms, it means that he ran away.

Cinderella disappeared at midnight, leaving behind a glass slipper, and Kang Jin-hyeon ran away, leaving behind a torn blanket and a broken pillow.

Heena, as if feeling a little liberated, bent down and picked up the half-covered blanket.

“…I’m having a hard time understanding what just happened, so I need to put this away and clear my head.”

The situation was quickly resolved. For the hunter who was said to be tired, I first casted ‘Comfortable Bed’ and stuffed the torn blanket and pillow.

As Heena began her daily routine as usual, the gazes she had been watching soon dispersed.

Well, there was nothing strange about what happened in the hunter lounge. Moreover, if he was ‘Kang Jin-hyeon of the world’, it would not be strange for him to do anything.

The hunters completely forgot what had just happened.

* * *

It was the end of lunch time.

Heena was sitting on a bench in the corner of the rooftop garden, enjoying the warm sunlight. It wasn’t strange if he fell into a nap right away.

‘It’s still a long way from lunch time. Should I set the alarm and sleep for 20 minutes?’

This means that the atmosphere was so comfortable that Lee Hee-na, who is famous for being diligent, even thought about taking a nap.

Since the place was so remote, it seemed unlikely that people would notice it.

“Uracha!”

It was time to think and stretch a lot.

“Mr. Heena.”

Kang Jin-hyeon’s face suddenly appeared from behind a tree in a corner of the garden.

“Ouch!”

Hee-na was surprised to see Kang Jin-hyeon hiding behind a tree and only peeking out his face, so she let out a small scream.

“That’s me.”

Kang Jin-hyeon came out from behind the tree and raised both hands as if to reassure them. Since he had no intention of attacking, it seemed to mean that he would not harm him.

“Every time I get close, he seems surprised.”

Kang Jin-hyeon approached Hee-na and spoke to her.

It seemed like the voice sounded gloomy, but that was clearly an illusion. Because Kang Jin-hyeon’s face was as expressionless as usual.

“That’s because you show up without a rumor. It’s not that Hunter Kang Jin-hyeon is scary or bad. “I was just surprised.”

Heena passionately blamed her new breasts.

“okay. From now on, I will make an effort to show up.”

Kang Jin-hyeon nodded and stood in front of the bench where Hee-na was sitting. A large shadow fell in front of Heena.

‘and. How tall is he? Are you going to go over 180?’

Even though he wasn’t a tall man, he looked even taller when he was sitting down.

“What’s going on?”

When Heena asked, Kang Jin-hyeon asked.

“Can I sit next to you?”

“yes. Sure.”

This was a rooftop garden shared by everyone. There was no way it wouldn’t work.

Above all, sitting and looking up at Kang Jin-hyeon was very uncomfortable and my neck hurt.

“Thank you.”

Kang Jin-hyeon sat two spans away from where Hee-na sat. It was neither too close nor too far. This means that it wasn’t a very bad distance for conversation.

The first to start was Kang Jin-hyeon.

“I was sorry about earlier. “You left the break room a mess and ran away.”

Heena waved her hand.

“No, it’s okay. “There wasn’t much to clean up.”

Even so, it was after listening to the environmental cleanup team members about the scale of accidents caused by hunters. The blanket was torn and I couldn’t even put it on.

“no. “I was a coward.”

“It’s barely a case of cowardice… I’m really fine.”

When Kang Jin-hyeon, the world’s S-class hunter, even called her a ‘coward’, Heena began to feel that this apology was a bit excessive.

“I was embarrassed by my sudden inability to control my strength, so I ended up avoiding the problem.”

“No…”

Kang Jin-hyeon asked for forgiveness as if he had truly committed the world’s wrong.

“I will do anything to give a proper apology to Heena.”

It was incredibly burdensome to hear him speak in a manner that made him feel like he could kill someone at any moment.

‘What should I do with this? Should I at least slap Hunter on the face because he has committed a deadly sin?’

Heena rolled her eyes wondering how to get out of this situation and discovered something.

And pointed at that place. Kang Jin-hyeon’s gaze also moved towards Heena’s fingertips.

At the end of the line of sight was an instant coffee vending machine. Heena said, pointing at the vending machine.

“If you’re sorry, please buy me a cup of coffee. “Let’s beat it with that.”

Heena sat on the bench and looked at Kang Jin-hyeon’s back. The tall young man was bent over with a serious expression on his face.

If Heena had not known that this was a situation where she was struggling to decide which button to press on a vending machine, she would have thought that Hunter Jinhyeon Kang was deep in thought for world peace.

“I would like milk coffee, please!”

Hee-na shouted to ease Kang Jin-hyeon’s worries.

Then Jinhyeon Kang nodded and immediately took out two cups of milk coffee. He was a person who was good at giving orders.

“It’s done. “I will go.”

He held a paper cup in each hand and started walking towards Heena.

And Heena realized that she had forgotten something important for a moment.

‘Ah, this person was a person who would turn even a cup of coffee into half a cup of coffee!’

In the short time Kang Jin-hyeon walked from the vending machine to the bench, the small paper cup was crumpled and he spat out coffee in gulps.

“Oh… I’m sorry. “There was almost no coffee left.”

Kang Jin-hyeon apologized as if he was embarrassed.

But to Heena, the amount of coffee left was not that important.

“Your hands must be hot. Are you okay?”

Heena jumped up from her seat, took out a clean dishcloth from her apron, and wiped Jinhyeon Kang’s hands.

The coffee fresh from the vending machine was hot. It must have been quite painful since I came here with coffee spilling all over my hands.

“it’s okay. “This is not a temperature that poses much of a threat to my body.”

Kang Jin-hyeon responded by gently taking his hand out of Hee-na’s hand.

“But my skin was hot. “It’s just that it hurts less than others, but it doesn’t mean it hurts!”

Heena clicked her tongue and passed the dishtowel.

Kang Jin-hyeon looked at Hee-na for a moment and sat down on the bench, wiping his sticky hands.

“…You don’t have to worry too much. “It’s just warm.”

Then he handed me the little coffee left. Heena carefully accepted the crumpled paper cup.

There was about a sip of coffee on the floor. Despite all the fuss, there was still something to drink.

“I’ll drink it well… thank you.”

Heena took a sip of coffee.

Kang Jin-hyeon was just holding on to his share of paper cups carefully. It seemed like he had something to say.

“It’s embarrassing because I feel like I’ve only shown you my ugly side.”

His expression was expressionless, but he also seemed quite embarrassed.

Heena remembered Team Leader Kim Hwa-soon’s words.

‘No matter what you see about S-class hunter Kang Jin-hyeon, do not reveal it to the outside world.’

Judging from those words, I thought he might be a person with some weaknesses.

‘…Of course, I didn’t know it would be this bad.’
