Housekeeper in the dungeon

EPISODE 57

Kang jin-hyeon rested his handsome forehead on the table. He looked so relaxed that he would never normally show it.

“Mr. jin-hyeon, was something wrong?”

Hee-na was worried and called out to Kang jin-hyeon, who had stopped eating cold noodles. Then Kang jin-hyeon, who was resting his forehead on the table, stood up.

“……Nothing was wrong, I’m fine.”

When he got back up, he looked perfectly fine. He was just a little paler than usual, and his eyes were a little glassy.

“was he drunk?”

Woo Min-ah, who had just finished a bowl of watercress noodles, nudged Kang jin-hyeon with her elbow. No, she tried to flick him.

“Don’t …….”

Kang jin-hyeon said slowly and dodged Woo Min-ah’s elbow. His movements were too fluid to be drunk, and his speech was much slower than usual and his tongue was dull.

“Are you drunk? Are you okay?”

Hee-na glanced at the bottles of soju stacked on the table beside her. There were so many that she couldn’t count them all at once. There must have been more than twenty bottles.

“When did we drink that much?

I remembered ordering four or five bottles at a time, taking it slow at first, and then getting drunk too quickly.

I also remember the tiny glasses, with the dew squeezed tightly into them, and filling them up as they emptied. I remember gulping down every part of the cow.

“were you all right? I knew you were a good drinker, but I didn’t realize it was this bad.”

Woo Min Ah worried about Hee Na as she checked on Kang Jin Hyun. Hee-na smiled wryly at Woo-min-ah.

“Sis, I was fine, I was just moderately horny and feeling good, right now.”

Hee-na was a natural talker. No matter how much she drank, she was never drunk beyond the limit.

Today was no different. The only thing that bothered her was that she felt a little bloated from eating so much meat.

“was your sister okay? Her face is bright red.”

Woo Min-ah was no less eloquent than Hee-na, but her face was red from drinking too much today.

“I was like this, I drank a lot. Haha!”

But she was only in a good mood and seemed to be awake.

By the way, if you had to choose the person who didn’t look the most normal among them, it was Kang jin-hyeon.

“……I was ……okay too.”

He also insisted that he was fine, but his words were a little stutterier than usual.

His facial expressions were fine, but his behavior was drunk. He was dozing in and out of sleep, his speech was slurred, and…

“Looks like even an S-class Hunter is drunk.”

It was an unexpected sight, Kang jin-hyeon, who never seemed to bat an eyelid at any danger, was getting carried away with just a few bottles of soju…….

“that was right. The higher the rank, the higher the immunity to alcohol, so I don’t get drunk much.”

Woo Min Ah clicked her tongue.

“He doesn’t have the constitution to drink. He’s an S-class, but he only drinks this much and gets drunk.”

Meanwhile, Kang Jin Hyun understood Woo Min Ah’s words and retorted.

“……I was not drunk…….”

But no one listens to a drunk who claims to be sober. Hee Na and Woo Min Ah ignored Kang Jin Hyun and continued their conversation.

“I guess you’ve never seen Hunter Kang drunk before, huh?”

“Eh. He doesn’t ate much because he has a short mouth. He doesn’t eat much, so why would he drank much?”

Besides, it wasn’t often that the three of us would empty more than twenty bottles of dew. Unless it was a weekly thing.

“Maybe it was the first time we’ve ever gotten this drunk?”

Woo Min-ah chuckled and grabbed her phone to start taking the video. Hee-na quickly lowered her voice and asked.

“Uh, big sister, what were you doing?”

“I’m filming this to show to Mr. Kang Hunter later. I think the head of HR will like it.”

The idea of filming herself drunk and showing it to him was enough to make the devil cry. Hee-na tried to stop her but gave up. Woo Min-ah seemed to be pleasantly drunk. There’s no point in trying to stop someone drunk in their sleep.

Instead, Hee-na gobbled up the remaining cold noodles. The spicy and sour bibim naengmyeon was very flavorful, as expected for a bowl of naengmyeon that costs over 10,000 won.

Woo Min-ah paid for the huge amount of alcohol and meat.

Hee-na was surprised by the receipt at first glance, and the alcohol she hadn’t even been drinking was gone. The bill exceeded Hee-na’s food bill for a month.

“Hmm.”

Hee-na was now a wealthy woman with three houses, but she was still a small-town girl at heart.

“I was going to have Hunter Kang pay the bill, but since he gave me a good show today, I’ll take it!”

Woo Min-ah giggled and pointed a finger at the distant man standing beside them. It was Kang jin-hyeon.

He looked a little sleepy and followed closely behind Hee-na.

“Mr. jin-hyeon, do you think you’ll be able to find your way home?”

Hee-na was worried about him. But it was only for a moment. Woo Min-ah patted her shoulder as if to say, “Don’t worry about that.

“He’s the kind of guy who wouldn’t get up even if he was lying on the street.”

Well, that was true, because last time in the Great Mushroom Dungeon, he hadn’t stirred despite all the rolling, throwing, and hitting.

“……I don’t sleep on the street, it was too noisy.”

Meanwhile, Kang jin-hyeon was talking back with what was left of his mind. He said that his five senses are sensitive, so he can’t sleep outside where people and cars are moving.

Woo Min-ah clicked her tongue as he continued to mumble.

“Yeah, yeah. You were a great S-class. Okay?”

Finally, Kang jin-hyeon was satisfied.

“……Yes.”

He smiled a small smile at the same time, and it gave off a strange vibe as his languid face lit up with laughter.

“Wow.

Hee-na stared at the face for a moment, mesmerized.

After all, people’s faces were the best. Even if he was a jerk, his handsome face made him look like he had a lot of energy.

“He’s drunk, so let’s sell him without a second thought. I’ll go in first. You go in too. Hunter Kang, you can go home and rest.”

Woo Min Ah waved her hand lightly, knowing Hee Na’s ‘Home Sweet Home’ skill, she didn’t offer to drive her home.

Woo MinAh walked away quickly with light steps.

“I……, Mr. jin-hyeon?”

Left alone with Kang Jinhyeon, Hee Na looked at him out of habit.

It was an instinct that came from years of experience at drinking parties, like the instinct to look out for someone too drunk to be seen.

“……Yes, Hee-Na.”

Kang replied a beat late, looking around and seemingly deep in thought.

“……it was late, and it was dark.”

He made the obvious comment. It was now 10 p.m. That meant they had been eating and drinking meat and alcohol for over four hours.

“Yes. You should go in too, Mr. Jin Hyun, if you want to go to work tomorrow.”

“……I don’t have a dungeon slayer for a few days, so I’m free. I just need to go out in the afternoon and conduct a few interviews. The day after tomorrow, I have a newspaper ad shoot, and the day after that, I have an executive meeting.”

Kang dutifully reported his schedule. Like a drunk, he over-explains.

“……I believe Ms. Heena is on vacation until tomorrow. Am I remembering correctly?”

“Yes. that was right, I’m off until tomorrow, and I’ll be back to work the day after tomorrow to cook for Mr. jin-hyeon.”

Hee-na explained in a simple way that the drunk could understand.

“……I’m very much looking forward to the day when Ms. Hee-na goes to work. I’ve never been this excited before. I’m really happy and…… happy thanks to Ms. Hee-na.”

Kang jin-hyeon’s earlobes reddened slightly. To some, it looked like he was drunk and making a confession.

There was nothing wrong with what he said, but it was unnecessarily embarrassing. It was a bit too much to expect from a coworker.

Hee-na’s cheeks turned red, even though she wasn’t drunk. Hee-na blushed unnecessarily.

“Mmm, mmm. Mr. jin-hyeon. You should go home now because my brother is waiting for me at home.”

Kang jin-hyeon said seriously.

“……You shouldn’t go alone. The streets at night were dangerous for ordinary people.”

“I was also an Awakened, and I was now a C-rank, so I was over 30 in physical strength.”

“……But Hee-na is a non-combatant who can get hurt easily. she was fragile.”

“Just stay on the main road.”

Hee-na was in no danger, as she only had to go to the scary wall and open the front door. But Kang jin-hyeon, who didn’t know that, was worried about her.

“I’ll take you to …….”

Without warning, he swept her into his arms. It happened in an instant.

“Aah!”

Hee-na let out a new scream.

“……I can take you safely.”

“My put me down!”

“……it was dangerous outside. The gate might suddenly open and you might encounter a monster. I need to stay with you.”

As time passed, Kang jin-hyeon’s delusions became excessive and his stubbornness intensified.

He grabbed Hee-Na and muttered, “I can’t lose her. “I can’t lose her,” he muttered as if she were some kind of treasure.

“……I’ll take care of it.”

Kang jin-hyeon stomped his foot as he said the last word.

“Aah!

Hee-na screamed inwardly as she felt her body float like she was on a roller coaster.

“What the hell was going on?
