The Homemaker of the Dungeon

Chapter 24



Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 24

“It’s too baggy and my sleeves don’t fold properly. What should I do?”

I had to secretly infiltrate the enemy’s lair, but at this rate, I was likely to get caught in the hem of my clothes before I could even walk a few steps.

Kang Jin-hyeon, who was watching this, held out his hand.

“Could you please take off your robe again?”

“Yeah…”

Heena took off her robe and handed it to Jinhyeon Kang. As I watched them retrieve the item again, it seemed like they were trying to use a different method.

“sorry. “I guess I’ll have to find another way…”

I was just about to sigh and speak.

Boom!

Before I could finish speaking, the loud sound of tearing cloth rang out.

And Heena was left speechless by the unexpected sight that unfolded before her eyes.

Boom boom boom boom!

Without a moment of hesitation, Jinhyeon Kang grabbed the hem of the robe and tore it apart.

The robe, which looked sturdy and tough, as if he had hidden a blade in his fingers, was torn cleanly away from Kang Jin-hyeon’s fingertips.

“Hunter Kang Jin-hyeon?”

Heena barely regained her speech and opened her mouth. Kang Jin-hyeon responded calmly to Heena’s call.

“yes. “What did you call me for?”

“Did I do something wrong?”

Kang Jin-hyeon even tore off his clothes and answered.

“Heena Lee did something wrong? “Not at all.”

“Then why are you suddenly tearing up that expensive item and robe?”

The robe that Kang Jin-hyeon was tearing was not just clothes. It was an item made from dungeon by-products.

Heena didn’t know the exact price of the item, but she knew that it was extremely expensive.

No matter how unsightly an item was, it was priced from several million to tens of millions of won.

It was clear that the robe that Kang Jin-hyeon made out of rags would cost at least several hundred million won. It was a difficult amount to raise even if Heena’s body was dismantled and sold over and over again.

‘Has Hunter Jinhyeon Kang turned away?’

In such a situation, it was not strange for Heena to think this way.

Kang Jin-hyeon must have not noticed Heena’s strange and subtle look in his eyes and handed the torn clothes back to Heena.

“Try it on.”

Because of the strange power unique to an S-class hunter, Heena unconsciously took the torn clothes and put them on. And then I realized.

“This is…”

Kang Jin-hyeon slightly raised the corners of his mouth, as if he was satisfied with Heena’s appearance in a robe.

“Now it will be the right length.”

Heena lifted her arm and looked at the sleeve of her robe. The sleeves, which were enough to cover the back of Heena’s hands, had suddenly shrunk to a size 9.

The length that had been dragging on the floor had become significantly shorter and was falling gently around my knees.

Heena was at a loss for words this time because of the absurdity.

‘Is it possible that you just ripped clothes worth hundreds of millions of dollars to fit my body? Did they just tear down a house? uh?’

“Then let’s get going.”

Meanwhile, Jin-Hyeon Kang refreshed himself and shook his hands. Then I turned and headed towards the mountain where the gate would be.

Heena didn’t know what to do and stamped her feet in place.

When he could not sense Heena following him, Kang Jin-hyeon stopped and asked.

“Is there a problem?”

“Is it okay for an expensive item to be damaged like this because of me?”

“It’s not that valuable. “Anyway, these items will wear out quickly after you wear them a few times.”

I heard that successful hunters have a lot of money, so their consumption level is different from that of ordinary people.

In that context, Kang Jin-hyeon, an S-class hunter, had financial sense outside the range of understanding of Hee-na, a small citizen.

‘You’d be embarrassed if you just tore a normal piece of clothing, but you tear up an extremely expensive item and say it doesn’t really matter.’

Heena barely managed to close her gaping mouth.

“I’m not telling you to pick it up because I tore it. So don’t worry and follow me.”

Kang Jin-hyeon reassured Hee-na and snapped his fingers. It seemed like they wanted to leave quickly and not worry about money.

“Yes yes! I’m going! wait a minute!”

Heena hurriedly picked up the pieces of the robe that had fallen on the floor and stuffed them into her apron pocket.

I don’t know what I’m going to do with it right now, but it would be a waste to throw away a piece of clothing worth hundreds of millions of won in the wilderness.

Hee-na, wearing a shortened robe, and Kang Jin-hyeon, who had split hundreds of millions of won in an instant, walked hard and finally arrived at the mouth of the mountain.

Because it was a rocky mountain in the middle of the wilderness, there was a sense of desolation rather than fresh greenery.

“Is there any more detailed information on the map than this? “Any information about which direction to take?”

“yes. “It’s not a very detailed map… There’s just a dot on the mountain that says there’s a gate.”

“Then we should find the gate and start exploring. Heena Lee, there will be a lot of security from here on, so keep your footsteps low and follow me closely.”

Heena followed Jinhyeon Kang with great nervousness.

‘I never imagined I would experience something like this in my life.’

Heena also didn’t like thriller movies. This is because my heart races the whole time I watch it.

I couldn’t believe that I was infiltrating the enemy’s stronghold.

As I was climbing the rocky mountain holding my breath, I heard a commotion coming from afar. It was the sound of breaking stones and the sound of urging work.

‘I think it’s a place where the people brought here are forced to work.’

When I thought that I was right in front of a scene where human rights had been erased, I felt disgusted and at the same time got goosebumps.

“It’s an open pit mine. It looks like something is being mined.”

Kang Jin-hyeon, who has good vision, roughly explained the situation. And his eyes lit up.

“The gate is open at the top of the open pit mine. Security is very tight, perhaps because the risk of escape is high.”

“scary.”

It was hopeless. According to Kang Jin-hyeon’s words, it meant that armed conflict could not be avoided in any way.

Kang Jin-hyeon placed his hand on Heena’s slightly trembling shoulder.

“Do not worry. “I just sneak in like this because it would be a hassle if there was a commotion, but I have enough power to deal with them.”

Kang Jin-hyeon’s words were trustworthy. And it was actually true.

The closer he got to the open mine, the more guards there were, but he managed to avoid the guards even with Heena in tow.

Kangkangkang! The sound of someone digging up a pile of dirt got closer and closer.

Kang Jin-hyeon stopped behind a large rock and gave Heena a warning.

“You have to be careful from here on. “If the situation arises, I will pick up Lee Hee-na and run towards the gate.”

“Yes, yes.”

“Don’t be too afraid. “It’s like an easy game.”

It was when Kang Jin-hyeon was giving ridiculous encouragement. Suddenly, a commotion arose from the labor yard. A loud voice rang out.

“stop! “That’s enough!”

Heena’s ears perked up instinctively at the familiar voice.

‘uh? ‘What is this voice?’

It was a voice that could never be heard here. But this was also a voice that was difficult to confuse.

Isn’t this the voice you’ve been hearing for 25 years of your life?

“A person has fallen! “I’ll do double the work, so figure out what to do with this guy!”

It was the voice of my older brother, whose whereabouts had been unknown for several months.

“Go, Hunter Jinhyeon Kang! wait a minute. “I’ll just take a moment to see what’s going on.”

Feeling desperate, Heena stuck behind the rock and peeked out her eyes. Then the sight of the open, round mine was clearly visible.

Heena’s eyes widened.

‘…brother!’

Heena’s older brother was there. He was shouting while holding the fallen man by his shoulders.

“Stop staying silent, someone come out!”

Heena was looking thinner than she remembered, covered in dust, and asking for help.

Heena flopped down in her seat at that scene.

“Are you in trouble?”

Kang Jin-hyeon lifted Hee-na up and whispered to her.

Heena raised her head and looked at him. Without realizing it, tears welled up and flowed down my cheeks.

“Heena?”

Kang Jin-hyeon seemed embarrassed when he saw Hee-na’s tears. This is because I forgot to call her ‘Lee Hee-na’ all the time.

But Heena couldn’t afford to worry about such a change in title.

‘You weren’t there to make money, but you were kidnapped? I didn’t even know that and waited patiently,

thinking that he would come back someday….’ I just said that I was worried, I was worried, but I remembered my indifferent self and tears naturally poured down my face.

My heart ached for her brother, who must have suffered while Heena got a good job, ate well, and lived well for the past two months.

“The person yelling over there is my older brother. “Oh, my brother hasn’t come home for a while, so I didn’t think he was held here… hehe.”

Heena couldn’t even finish her sentence and cried. I couldn’t even cry out loud for fear that my location would be revealed to my enemies.

“Do not cry. “It’s okay, Heena.”

Kang Jin-hyeon tried his best to comfort Hee-na.

He seemed unused to this sort of thing. The hand that patted his shoulder was stiff, and his facial expression was awkward.

Heena barely stopped crying as she wiped her face with the back of her hand.

“Huh huh. I’m sorry for suddenly crying. “You were embarrassed, right?”

“no. “Anyone would be very surprised to learn that their own relatives were held in a place like that.”

Kang Jin-hyeon comforted Hee-na with a blunt but kind voice.

And that was then.

“I’ll just keep doing what I’m doing. What kind of riot is this?”

A loud voice came out and a popping sound was heard.

Heena was very surprised and tried to turn her head to see, but Jinhyeon Kang covered Heena’s eyes, so she couldn’t see anything.

“I’d rather not watch this scene.”

Kang Jin-hyeon grabbed Heena’s shoulders and pushed her down. Then he took out a dagger from his inventory and placed it in Heena’s hand.

<Dagger of Protection (S): Protects the holder from external threats. Regardless of the strength of the attack, the first attack is always blocked.>
