The Homemaker of the Dungeon - Chapter 91
Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 91
The opponent was a man wearing black clothes and a black hat. Goosebumps appeared on my back.
“Ouch!”
Heena quickly screamed and tried to run away, but it was already too late.
The man threw a small marble and boom! A voice rang out. Then the surrounding scenery became blurry, as if there was a curtain covering it.
“help!”
Even if I screamed, my voice was lost in the air, as if I was inside a soundproof booth.
Passers-by just a few steps away did not seem to see the confrontation between Heena and the man as they passed through the alley.
Everyone just passed by indifferently on the street. As if I couldn’t see anything or hear anything…
‘Oh no!’
Heena quickly ran away due to the unusual energy.
But that was only for a moment. A strong hand stretched out from behind her back and clamped down on Heena’s mouth.
“…town! Ugh! “Ugh!”
I struggled with all my might, but I could not withstand the man’s strength.
‘no! what’s this!’
Heena gritted her teeth and bit down on the finger covering her mouth. With a crackling sound behind him, “Ugh!” A moan was heard.
The man seemed to have lost his strength for a moment due to Heena’s attack, and Heena took advantage of the opportunity to try to escape from the man’s grasp.
But that was only for a moment. The man swore in a harsh tone.
“Fuck it!”
At the same time, a tingling sensation spread to the back of my neck, as if I had been stabbed by something.
“Ouch!”
Heena screamed in horror at the unfamiliar sensation.
The tingling sensation that spread from the back of my neck instantly tingled my entire nerves. And after just a few seconds, my vision became blurry.
“Ah… this…”
My legs lost strength and I fell down in place.
The man carried Heena around.
Heena tried to struggle, but her body did not move as expected.
“Let go… give me…”
With that, Heena lost consciousness.
* * *
The first thing that awoke was my sense of smell.
Heena opened her eyes, frowning at the musty smell.
“Ugh…”
My head was pounding to the point where I couldn’t help but moan. Heena didn’t know what a hangover was, but she thought that if she had a hangover, she might feel this way…
‘…This place?’
Heena was trapped in a dark warehouse. The reason I thought this was a warehouse was simple. This is because the room was filled with old-looking furniture and tools.
“Uuuu…”
I tried to get up, but it was difficult to move because I was tied tightly somewhere. I looked around and looked around. His arms were tied behind his back and his legs were tied to the chair.
‘Ahh! what’s this!’
Heena wriggled her body in an attempt to somehow escape this situation. But his limbs were so tightly bound that he couldn’t move. The only thing that happened was the chair rocked uneasily from side to side.
Meanwhile, an unfamiliar voice fell on Heena’s head as she struggled with the chair.
“You finally woke up.”
Heena suddenly raised her head and looked at the person responsible for the voice.
However, it was impossible to make out the facial expressions as they were hidden in the faint darkness. All I could make out was that he was a man of medium height.
“Who are you?”
I asked the other person’s identity, but the answer I got was terrifying.
“I can’t give away my identity without permission. “Then you have to die.”
‘Lord… I have to die?’
All kinds of thoughts crossed my mind.
How did he end up here, why was he kidnapped, and how would he get out of this situation? His eyes were spinning.
‘…It’s not even a dream, is it?’
Judging from the numbness in my tightly contracted limbs, I was certain this wasn’t a dream.
“As long as you answer well, you will be released safely without any trouble.”
Then the man squatted down in front of Heena.
“If she rebels… things will get complicated from then on.”
My heart chilled at the life in his voice.
Heena swallowed hard and tried to calm her pounding heart.
‘Let’s not be scared.’
Heena recalled her memories with the giant mushroom.
A person who could communicate was much better than a B-level boss monster that ran wild. When I thought about it that way, I felt much better.
“What do you want to ask?”
Heena responded calmly. There was interest mixed in the man’s voice.
“oh. “You have quite a bit of courage.”
“I heard that if you answer correctly, they will save you and send you to me? “I want to get out quickly.”
When I was in an extreme situation, my mind started spinning to a surprising degree.
Heena answered the man’s question clearly and thought about what to do if the other person did not let her go alive.
‘are you okay. I have the ‘Home Sweet Home’ ability. ‘You can open the front door just by touching the wall.’
I was able to open the door by somehow attaching it to the wall.
Heena looked at the man’s gaze and strengthened her toes.
Squeak, squeal.
The chair was pushed back little by little with an unpleasant noise.
Seeing Heena’s actions, the man stood up and crossed his arms.
“Am I scared? …well. Like I said before, as long as you answer well, I won’t be scary at all.”
He grumbled as if he was dissatisfied with Heena’s scared appearance.
He was a funny person. If anyone were kidnapped and tied up in a dark place, they would inevitably be scared.
Heena glanced behind her and pushed the chair. Fortunately, the chair was not placed too far from the wall. I felt like I could reach it if I moved my body hard.
“Let’s see… I have a lot to ask.”
Meanwhile, the man shook his hands. Then he grabbed the chair that was being pushed back with a thud.
“omg!”
He rested his chin and both hands on the back of the chair. Naturally, Heena and the man’s faces became quite close. Even in the dark, I could clearly see the outline of the face.
However, because the man was wearing a black mask, all Heena could see was his two brightly shining eyes.
“ruler. “Let’s say hello.”
At the same time, a strange flash passed through the man’s eyes.
‘Ah…’
Heena was distracted by that flash of light. My tinnitus rang and my vision blurred for a moment. I felt like I was isolated from this world.
“That’s it.”
As soon as Heena’s gaze became hazy, the man activated the stopwatch. And I asked right away.
“You’re the one who has something to do with the peanuts in the inventory, right?”
It was a question about peanuts, which had recently signed an exclusive contract with the Blue Dragon Guild. Heena’s head spun violently.
‘Are you from the Blue Dragon Guild? No, if you’re from the guild, there’s no reason to kidnap me like this… Then how did you get that information? ‘Isn’t this confidential?’
Regardless of what she was thinking in her head, Heena’s mouth moved obediently.
“yes. “There is a connection.”
‘uh?’
This was not Heena’s will. The lips moved spontaneously as if possessed. I’m not sure, but the man was an awakened person and seemed to have mental abilities.
The man’s sharp gaze softened with satisfaction.
“okay? Looks like I came to the right place. “Then how did you get the peanuts?”
“My brother grew it.”
At Heena’s answer, the man exclaimed with a small exclamation.
“Your brother? “What kind of abilities did you have that allowed you to grow these special peanuts?”
Heena’s heart started pounding at the question. There was no benefit in letting others know about Heewon’s class and abilities.
However, unlike his perplexed mind, his lips calmly spoke the truth.
“My brother is in the farmer class. “If you farm on dungeon land, you can grow crops with special effects.”
“What a great ability. …You’re just farming on dungeon land? “How can you enter a dungeon without permission and start farming?”
‘omg.’
This was a really dangerous question. Heena thought to herself, ‘No!’ and screamed. However, the lips moved without any resistance.
“…If you use my ‘Home Sweet Home’ skill, you can travel to and from the dungeon safely.”
As soon as I finished speaking, the first thought that came to mind was this.
‘× It’s done!’
Even if you revealed the truth to people close to you, you would feel anxious, so you told the very suspicious kidnapper about this!
As Woo Min-ah said, wouldn’t we now be in a situation where it wouldn’t be strange to be treated like a slave?
My head was so overheated that I felt dizzy. I had to escape from here somehow, but at the same time, I needed to silence that person.
“The ‘Home Sweet Home’ skill? A skill that allows you to travel between dungeons? “Tell me more, lady.”
As expected, the man showed great curiosity about Heena’s abilities. Heena, who was caught by the mental skill, gave a detailed explanation of the ‘Home Sweet Home’ skill.
“I have a house in the dungeon. “We call that house ‘Home Sweet Home.’”
It was after the stopwatch beeped that I was able to stop my mouth and tongue from freely spewing out facts.
I was about to tell him the most important thing: that the door to the house can be opened from anywhere.
“This is a space-related skill… this, this, this… I can’t tell you any more than this!”
Heena, who suddenly came to her senses, shook her head in a defiant tone, and the man licked his lips in disappointment.
Then I looked down at the stopwatch and three minutes had passed.
‘I guess this is a time-limited skill.’
Heena’s prediction was correct. Soon the man grumbled as if it was a waste.
“It’s already time. “If only I had one more minute, I could have dug it all out… damn it.”
Then he staggered back a few steps and touched his temple.
“Oh my, it’s so annoying. “This ability is all good, but the aftereffects are too big.”
