The Homemaker of the Dungeon - Chapter 88

Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 88

I opened the door thinking it was a ‘dungeon I’ve never been to’ and a sight I had never seen before was revealed to me.

This time it was a meadow with wide green grass. The fluffy leaves were wet and moist with the morning dew, and the morning sunlight shone brightly, shining with five colors.

“Wow, this place really… looks like a garden in heaven.”

Heena was slightly impressed.

The dungeon was an incredibly dangerous place, but it was also a space where nature was perfectly preserved.

Heena was sometimes completely overwhelmed by the wonder of the dungeon. Like today.

“There is danger lurking in such a seemingly peaceful place. “I can’t believe it.”

Heena walked through the meadow with Kang Jin-hyeon, leaving Baduki nearby.

Perhaps it was because of Kang Jin-hyeon’s momentum or Heena’s robe of stealth, but the group did not encounter a single monster during the walk.

Baduki was jumping around in the morning grass. I also sniffed the floor.

Heena and Jinhyeon Kang walked side by side and watched the scene. Baduki is always busy, so at least I didn’t get bored watching it.

Swish!

Baduki, who had been playing alone for a while, suddenly raised a flower bud.

“Why baduk? “What’s there?”

Heena slowly approached Baduki, checking the quest status window, which was 88% progressed. It seemed like the quest would be over if I let them play for another 20 minutes.

“Go?”

Baduki quickly got up from his seat. Then, I looked alternately at Heena and Kang Jin-Hyeon, who was standing behind Heena.

“what’s the matter?”

When I asked, puzzled by the sudden action, Baduki held out his hand… or rather, a leaf. It was like an action taken when offering a handshake.

“You want me to hold you?”

Nod. Without much resistance to Baduki’s reaction, he reached out his hand to the leaf and held it tightly. Then, as if he was in a good mood, the leaves on his tail started spinning like a propeller.

Baduki was in such a good mood that he gently held out the other leaf to Kang Jin-hyeon.

Kang Jin-hyeon furrowed his eyebrows, uncrossed his arms, and grabbed the leaf of Baduki.

Baduki, who caught Hee-na and Kang Jin-hyeon on both leaves, suddenly dragged them forward.

“Huh? Where?”

Heena looked at Baduki, half being dragged by Baduki.

However, Baduki only slowed down his pace to match Heena’s pace and made no reply.

It was natural. Baduki had no mouth.

Surprisingly, Kang Jin-hyeon was easily taken by Baduki.

“I guess there’s something you want to show me.”

“Ugh. “I hope it’s not a boss monster or something.”

I quickly activated the ‘Where is my home’ skill and looked at the dungeon map. Fortunately, Baduki was not heading towards the boss monster.

Baduki held their hands and climbed a small hill. My stats were better than before, so I didn’t feel out of breath or tired.

‘My physical strength has improved.’

It was time to be proud of my stronger limbs.

The view suddenly became clear.

“and!”

Before I knew it, I had reached the top of the hill. I thought it was just a low hill, but when I climbed all the way up, it was higher than the surrounding area, so I felt like I was on top of the world.

The wind blew just in time. With a sigh, the green grass leaned in one direction and stood up.

The dewdrops that failed to fly reflected the sunlight and sparkled silver. It felt like I was in a scene from a famous painting.

“Did you want to show us this, Baduk?”

When I raised my head and looked at Baduki, Baduki nodded. Somehow, it seemed like there was something like pride or pride mixed in the movement.

“It’s a sight that makes me feel refreshed. thank you.”

He patted the leaf he was holding tightly and praised it. The roots of the baduki were shaking with excitement as if they were doing a tap dance.

Heena smiled brightly at the busy appearance.

“I’ll be here looking at the scenery, so you can go out and play baduk. “I have to go to work in a little while.”

Baduki nodded his buds loudly as if he understood. Then he turned his head left and right and looked at Hee-na and Kang Jin-hyeon alternately.

“why? We’ll be waiting here. “I’m not going, so don’t worry.”

He patted Baduki, wondering if he was worried that he would leave him behind. But that didn’t seem to be Baduki’s concern.

Baduki quickly turned his head to look at the two, and then twitched his flower bud as if he was very excited.

I heard a crunching sound that did not fit the pretty bud. Of course, I never wondered what this meant.

After roaring for a while, Baduki finally gently folded the leaves that were holding the hands of Heena and Jinhyeon Kang.

Naturally, the two hands holding the leaf touched each other.

Heena was startled and embarrassed by the hot body temperature touching the back of her hand. But Baduki didn’t care. Instead, Kang Jin-hyeon’s palm was placed on top of Heena’s hand.

Then he patted the two hands he was holding and nodded. He seemed very satisfied.

“Go?”

Baduki pretended not to hear Heena’s question and slinked back. The hands that Baduki had forcibly overlapped seemed to fall off naturally, but…

“…Ah!”

Heena screamed desperately.

It was a moment when Kang Jin-hyeon grabbed Hee-na’s hand. A large, firm hand gently wrapped Heena’s entire hand.

“Jinhyeon Ji?”

Heena looked at Kang Jin-hyeon in surprise.

He was staring at Baduki running away in the distance with a nonchalant expression.

“Baduki wants it, so let’s stay like this for a while.”

There was a hint of laughter in his voice. It seemed as if he was teasing Heena, who was surprised.

Heena felt embarrassed and turned her head.

“is it so. “What does Baduki want?”

But somehow I couldn’t hide the fact that my face was turning red.

I couldn’t make friends properly because I was busy making a living, and there was no way I could have ever made a friend of the opposite sex. Thanks to this, Heena was very vulnerable to this kind of contact.

Even though I had always thought of Kang Jin-hyeon as a handsome still life, all kinds of thoughts came to my mind as we held hands like this.

The more I wiggled my hand out of embarrassment, the stronger the grip on Heena’s hand became.

Contrary to his cold appearance, Kang Jin-hyeon’s hands were very hot. It was so hot that I was worried that the hand I was holding would melt.

It was when I was swallowing my saliva and conscious of my hot body temperature.

Kang Jin-hyeon suddenly opened his mouth.

“Even after this quest is over, it would be nice to take a walk with me like this sometimes.”

“Would you like to take a walk?”

“That’s right. Baduki likes walks a lot, so I think he would be very disappointed if the walk ended like this. Of course, you can’t do it alone, assuming you accompany me.”

“Well… it’s not bad. “Please come to my house often.”

However, I didn’t expect that the person who cared about Heena’s safety more than anyone else would bring up this story first.

“Are you that unexpected?”

Kang Jin-hyeon must have read that expression and asked with a chuckle.

Heena answered hesitantly.

“Actually, I thought it was a bit surprising. “I never thought Jinhyeon would say something like this…”

“I am also a person who has a certain degree of flexibility. “I’ve heard quite a bit about Baduki and Jeongdo.”

Then he was silent for a moment and then spoke slowly.

“So, there is something I want to tell you.”

The voice was cautious. The hands that held each other also gained strength.

At the same time, the tension spread to Heena. Heena swallowed her saliva.

“Wh…what is it?”

“…Can I stay like this at Heena’s house any longer?”

It was a sound that sounded embarrassing. Unfortunately, Heena didn’t know how to respond to these words.

“Uh…”

I was chewing my lips and thinking about how to interpret these words and how to respond.

The system window beeped, indicating the completion of the quest. Before I knew it, the progress of the Baduk dungeon walk quest had reached 100%.

“Has the quest completion window appeared?”

Kang Jin-hyeon asked with a keen sense of humor. Heena nodded and frantically read the letters in front of her.

Since the level has increased by 15, there are 15 level-up rewards to receive. It was cumbersome to check each one.

“yes. “I’ll take it all at once.”

As soon as I accepted the reward, a courtesy ‘drawing in progress’ message appeared. As there were 15 level up rewards, it took quite some time.

As time passed, a spectacular effect exploded like fireworks before Heena’s eyes.

“Special reward?”

“…a piece of a piece of space?”

If it was a piece of space, it was a piece. What is a piece of a piece?

If it’s a piece of sculpture, isn’t it just a fragment of space?

It was about time I thought about that.

Heena’s eyes widened when she saw the system window.

‘Apartment expansion?’
