The Homemaker of the Dungeon - Chapter 82

Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 82

Heena widened her eyes and warned Baduki.

But is it because I don’t have eyes? Unfortunately, Baduki did not notice Heena’s earnest signal.

Baduki was just happy and jumping up and down. The blades of grass in the back fluttered like propellers.

It seemed like he was yelling, ‘I feel so bad!’

As it was close to 2m in size, Baduki quickly got closer to Heena and Kang Jin-hyeon.

It was when Baduki was almost close. Kang Jin-hyeon chanted lowly.

“Please keep your eyes averted.”

Heena knew what this meant. It meant attacking Baduki and destroying it without a trace.

‘Oh, no!’

I couldn’t stand to see Heewon’s precious pet plant disappear like this. It was a plant that my brother raised as if it were his own child.

Heena also took a walk with Baduki and became quite attached.

Additionally, if Baduki disappears, the walking quest will never be completed. In other words, not only is ‘Home Sweet Home’ lost, but the five colors are also lost.

‘You can’t do that!’

As I thought about that, my body started moving on its own.

Heena rushed at Kang Jin-hyeon with transcendental speed. And he hung on to his body to prevent him from moving.

“No!”

Kang Jin-hyeon tried to open his hands to Baduki while hanging Hee-na, but stopped when Hee-na shouted.

“Heena?”

“Please save Baduk! “My child doesn’t bite and is calm!”

Heena held Jinhyeon Kang’s waist tightly and hugged him.

With his power, he would be able to quickly throw away a C-level housekeeper, but he was confident that Kang Jin-hyeon would not do that.

He considered Heena very important and was a kind person who would never cause her the slightest harm.

“Go! Run away! “Run away!”

While he paused for a moment, Heena chased away the baduki that was excitedly running towards her.

“go away! Go home alone! “Go to your brother!”

Baduki tilted his head as if he didn’t understand… no, he tilted his flower bud a few times, then turned around and left.

He looked back several times and expressed his regret that Heena did not go with him.

Every time, Heena opened her eyes wide and motioned for me to leave quickly. Fortunately, Heena’s glance worked this time.

Chabakchabak Baduki left dejected. The footsteps gradually became distant.

‘It’s okay…’

Heena felt relieved as she heard the sound of footsteps moving away.

Since Kang Jin-hyeon is holding his hand and Baduki has disappeared from sight, the fire has been extinguished for now.

“Mr. Heena.”

But the problem started now.

“I have a lot to tell you, but first… won’t you please let me go?”

Kang Jin-hyeon patted Hee-na’s back with a slightly stiff gesture.

“If I let go, Baduk will chase after me, right?”

Heena couldn’t let go of any doubt and held on to Kang Jin-hyeon’s waist tightly. A low sigh was heard from overhead.

“I promise. I won’t chase you. Where would I go leaving Heena alone? So… please let go.”

His voice was very low.

‘Aren’t you angry?’

Heena was intimidated and released her arms from Jinhyeon Kang’s waist. And then he slowly took a few steps back.

Kang Jin-hyeon took a deep breath, as if he would survive only then.

Heena stood in front of him and hesitated. My head was spinning. For now, the situation was handled as quickly as possible, but a bigger problem remained.

“Mr. Heena.”

“Yeah…”

Kang Jin-hyeon swept up his bangs with a fairly rough hand. It was a powerful sight that I had never seen before. Heena’s heart shrank.

“Why is the monster following Heena’s orders?”

He questioned harshly.

“That…”

“How could you have known that monster before? What about Heena, an ordinary non-combat awakening person who has no contact with the dungeon unless it is a special coincidence?”

“Hmm.”

Heena couldn’t bear to look him in the eyes and rolled her eyes here and there. It was to come up with a way to escape somehow.

“Look me straight in the eyes and talk to me.”

However, today’s Kang Jin-hyeon was very different from his usual appearance of missing a screw. The pitch-black eyes were looking straight at Heena with anticipation.

“I know that there are things Heena is hiding. I was able to pretend not to know. However, if the ability is directly related to the dungeon monster, we cannot just tolerate it.”

“Well… Baduki is not a monster, but a system…”

Heena hesitated, not knowing how to explain the existence of Baduki.

It had an unusual appearance to say it wasn’t a monster, but it was too friendly to humans to say it was a monster.

Kang Jin-hyeon looked at the confused Hee-na for a long time and then let out words like a sigh.

“Plus, since it’s Baduk, the monster has that name…”

I completely understood why Kang Jin-hyeon was so surprised.

Monsters were beings that could not be tamed and were created to slaughter humans. At least that’s what research over the past 10 years has shown.

Many countries were secretly researching ways to breed and tame monsters for military purposes, but none of them succeeded.

It must have seemed really strange to see Heena interacting with such a monster by calling it the friendly name ‘Baduki’.

‘Where should I start to explain this? No, how far should I go?’

Heena bit her lip.

‘Minah told me to keep the secret…’

But I had already come too far to follow Woo Minah’s words.

Didn’t they suddenly encounter one in a dungeon and show them trying to protect a plant that looks like a dungeon monster?

‘…and I can trust Jinhyeon.’

Heena believed in what Kang Jin-hyeon had shown so far.

It was clear that he was willing to keep Heena’s secret if it was something he could understand rationally.

At least Kang Jin-hyeon was not a person who tried to extort Heena’s abilities for personal gain. Wouldn’t it be better to go the opposite way and worry about Hee-na’s safety and become more expensive…

‘Okay. Let’s talk. Since I have to deal with Jinhyeon for a long time anyway, it would be better to be honest. If you’re going to make up ridiculous lies every time…’

Then there’s no need to act like you live next door when you actually don’t, and there’s no need to lie that you have a strange skill to silence noise between floors.

“Well… if I’m telling the truth, it’s a long story.”

“You can take as much time as you want.”

Kang Jin-hyeon looked down at Hee-na with a stern expression.

But it didn’t feel scary or unfair. This is because it was clearly visible that emotions such as doubt, worry, and concern were mixed in that gaze.

It was like that. Kang Jin-hyeon was worried about Hee-na.

Gulp. Heena swallowed dry saliva.

I was scared to reveal the truth that I had worked so hard to keep secret, but at the same time, I felt relieved.

“Actually, there is a skill I didn’t reveal.”

“yes. “I had a guess.”

I thought I was hiding it well, but if Kang Jin-hyeon noticed it, I guess I didn’t hide it very well.

Heena sighed inwardly and opened her mouth.

“Actually, I have a skill called ‘Home Sweet Home’ and that is…” That

was the moment I opened my mouth.

Kang Jin-hyeon glanced back and suddenly hugged Hee-na without warning.

“100 million!”

Thanks to this, Heena almost chewed her tongue properly.

“Jinhyeon Ji!”

It was the moment when he was about to protest against the rough hands that were uncharacteristic of Kang Jin-hyeon. In an instant, my vision turned over.

‘Ugh.’

Hee-na flew through the air while being held by Kang Jin-hyeon. I felt dizzy from the sudden change in altitude.

But this time I couldn’t complain at all.

Pot! Chijijiji!

This is because a thick liquid splashed onto the ground where Heena and Kang Jin-hyeon were standing and the floor was seen melting.

At the same time, a sour smell spread. It was an acidic solution.

Kudududududu A huge monster was coming towards them with the sound of loud footsteps. Heena lifted her head and looked at the monster that had spit out the liquid.

‘Ahh! ‘It’s hideous!’

A large flower, apparently 20 meters in diameter, had its mouth wide open. The flower stalk had tentacle-like vines that seemed to move along it.

Additionally, the places where the pistils and stamens should be were filled with sharp teeth, and instead of honey, they dripped acidic solution.

It looked so dangerous and disgusting that it could not even be compared to Baduki, which had the same plant-like body.

[Kwaek kuak kuak!]

The boss monster let out a loud belching sound and quickly approached the location where Heena and Kang Jin-hyeon were.

Kang Jin-hyeon frowned at that sight. There was no fear. However, he was a little puzzled.

“This is no place for boss mobs…”

At his muttering to himself, Heena quickly cast the ‘Where is my home’ skill.

<Where is my home (D): Shows the location of ‘Home Sweet Home’ in the spacious dungeon. Boss mobs and gate locations are bonuses. Active Skill.>

‘Home Sweet Home’ It was a map skill that showed the outline of the location of the entrance door and gate boss mob.

Heena was surprised when she opened the dungeon map. This is because the current location where Heena was standing overlapped with the ‘Boss Mob’ sign.

‘omg! It’s a real boss monster, right?’

How did the boss mob, which was obviously far away just a moment ago, get here?

How did you notice the presence of Heena and S-class hunters wearing stealth robes?

Soon, Heena was able to realize the reason.

Tsk tsk tsk! Crash! fault!

There were urgent steps being chased by a huge boss monster. Heena heard this sound often and knew it very well.

“Go!”
