Housekeeper in the dungeon

EPISODE 70

“Ugh.

Kang’s point made my stomach turn. It must be really quiet except during rush hour. No one lives in this house.

“Since you were an S-class, I was worried that the skill wouldn’t work, but I was glad to hear it was quiet.”

“it was nice of you to be so concerned.”

“No, it was just neighborly etiquette, haha.”

Hee-na giggled awkwardly and sighed inwardly.

“I was sure you were just naturally grounded……?

Woo Min-ah looked around at the right time, marveling at how she could see through her nervousness.

“But it was very well decorated. it was probably the same house as Kang jin-hyeon’s, just the opposite structure, but the atmosphere was much more humane.”

“Really? I decorated it with care, and it was nice that you noticed.”

Just when she thought she couldn’t lose, Kang jin-hyeon chimed in with a compliment.

“I thought the atmosphere of the house was good, too, Hee-na.”

After hearing their compliments, a status window popped up in front of me.

<▶ Side Quests (1/1)

– Invite the neighbors over to show off your new house (100/100%)

* Additional reward item for completing the side quest (guarantees B-grade or higher defense items)>

“Was something wrong?”

Kang Jin Hyun quickly noticed the slight tremor in Hee Na’s eyes.

“Oh, it was…….”

Hee-na glanced at her surroundings. Hee-won, her brother, Woo-min-ah, the Blue Dragon Guild’s executive, and Kang jin-hyeon.

“it was okay to say this much, right?

For most people, a B-grade or higher armor would be worth a fortune, but Woo Min-ah and Kang Jin Hyun were different.

Woo Min Ah had given away a B-ranked sword as a housewarming gift, and Kang Jin Hyun had also been tearing apart high-ranked robe items.

It was safe to say that they had received high-grade armor as quest rewards.

Since they were also high-level Hunters, they might be able to give me some advice on how to use these items.

“Was it Hee-Na?”

Even Woo Min Ah had been checking on Hee Na, so Hee Na finally spoke up.

“I invited you two here because of a quest.”

“What quest?”

“there was a quest about decorating a house, and one of the quests is called ‘Throw a housewarming party’.”

“it was a unique quest.”

Kang jin-hyeon was intrigued by the unusual quest content.

“You had an unusual skill and an unusual quest.”

Woo Min-Ah was also intrigued.

Hee-na smirked at them.

“Coincidentally, the reward for this quest was a Class B or higher armor, so could you take a look at it?”

* * *

“Thank you for inviting us.”

“Please invite me again next time. It was fun.”

Hee-na bowed her head to Kang jin-hyeon and Woo Min-ah.

“Thank you for coming, and thank you for the gift. I’ll invite you again next time, but you can came empty-handed then.”

Hee-won also bowed politely to the departing guests.

“Goodbye. Thank you for all the fun and laughter.”

The subject, who had been nudging Kang jin-hyeon throughout the evening, seemed to find it a bit abominable that he changed his complexion as if nothing had happened.

“Take care.”

The siblings saw off their guest and slammed the front door.

“My brother was……!”

I was about to scold them. But Hee-won beat me to it.

“Hey, let’s got your new armor out. I didn’t get a good look at it earlier, so I was curious.”

Hee-na had received the armor as a reward for completing the “Build a Model House!” side quest.

It was a Class A Defense Bracelet.

According to Kangjin-hyeon and WooMinAh, this was an item with an incredible function.

As long as the opponent’s monsters were Class A or lower, they could survive being hit at least once each by all kinds of monsters.

Add to that the fact that very few monsters were above Class A, and this armor was practically invincible. If put up for auction, the starting price would be tens of billions at least.

The only problem was that this bracelet was a possession item, which meant it could only be used by Hee-Na.

“This was the money.”

Hee-won fiddled with the defense bracelet and examined it.

The bracelet was very thin and unassuming. It had a thin silver chain and a single gemstone that sparkled with five colors.

It looked like a cheap bracelet one might pick up along the way.

“Should I be glad it looks so plain? I wouldn’t have been able to wear it if it had a bunch of big gems in it.”

Hee-won muttered as she handed the bracelet back to Hee-na.

“You should wear something nice.”

Hee-Na agreed.

It was an item she wouldn’t be able to give away anyway. It would be much more valuable on her wrist than sitting in her inventory.

“I hope I didn’t have to use the bracelet power.”

Hee-Na prayed fervently and put the bracelet on her wrist.

5. The Strolling Housekeeper
“Hee-na! Hee-na, wake up!”

“Uhh…….”

The boisterous voice woke Hee-na up in great pain.

Fumbling for her cell phone, she checked the time: 6:39. It was quite early, even for the diligent Hee-Na.

Yesterday, Saturday, she had spent the whole day preparing for the housewarming party.

On top of that, her heart was racing thanks to her new Class A defense bracelet, so she fell asleep much later than usual. The fatigue hadn’t worn off yet.

“What the hell, it was not even 7 am……. it was Sunday…….”

Yawning, she tries to pull the covers back around her, but the pillow propping her head up slips away.

This caused Hee-na to hit her head lightly on the mattress.

“Hey, Lee Hee-won!”

Hee-na jumped up at her brother’s antics.

He had graduated more than a decade ago, had he suddenly aged backward?

“you were finally awake.”

Hee-won chuckled as he hugged Hee-na’s pillow. He hadn’t been awake long, either, and his head was a magpie’s nest.

“What the hell were you doing up at the crack of dawn?”

Hee-won felt like he’d been struck by lightning for interrupting a coworker’s day off.

“I was sorry. But I wanted to show you something……. I was in a hurry.”

Hee-won grabbed Hee-na’s arm and pulled her to her feet. Then he pushed her off her back and into the living room.

“I still won’t forgive you for waking me up…….”

I was rolling my eyes, but Hee-won motioned for me to look ahead.

“Look over there. There!”

“Unless it was something big enough to wake me up, you won’t be eating today…….”

Hee-Na, who had been shouting frightening threats at her brother, was momentarily speechless at the sight before her.

One, two, three, four, five.

After about five seconds of silence, Hee-Na asked, dumbfounded.

“…… was this grass? No, what was the tree?”

Hee-na’s question was answered by Hee-won.

“This? Go. It grew so big overnight, didn’t it?”

Sure enough, in the middle of the living room, a large plant, about two meters tall, was fluttering its leaves.

A single bud, blades of grass as long as a man’s arm, and roots that swayed and moved. ……. It was undeniably Go.

The only difference was that it had grown enormously in size.

“Transformation!”

“Last night, an overwhelming change in size.”

Oh Saek-yi, who had already approached, said something. He seemed to be saying that the Go had grown so much overnight.

Hee-na pinched her cheek, wondering if she was dreaming.

“That hurts.

It wasn’t a dream.

Was it just me, or does it feel like all the moments I wish were dreams these days weren’t……?

“How did this happen?”

Hee-na looked at the broken flowerpot at Baduk’s feet.

He still believes he can fit inside the pot, and he was stuck a bunch of root hairs in it.

“I don’t know, I woke up early to water the field, and it was this big.”

Hee-won scratched his head and replied.

“The growth rate suddenly went up to 25% in the Go quest, but it was been going up very slowly.”

“So it was only grown 25%? How big was it going to be when it was fully grown? Five meters? Ten meters? Then we can’t keep it in our house.”

Understanding Hee-na’s words, Baduk bowed his head deeply. A dark shadow fell over the bud.

“Why did you say that?”

Hee-won, the self-proclaimed “Go Daddy,” scolded his brother, and he strode over to the now bigger Go.

“Go, I didn’t mean to throw you out right now. you were too scared to be outside alone, and you were only 25 percent grown.”

“My brother must be crazy.

Hee-na briefly cursed her brother.

“Anyway, please explain the situation. I just woke up and my head was pounding.”

Hee-won fetched a cup of cold water from the kitchen and sat down at the table. Meanwhile, Hee-won examined the go pieces carefully.

“The veins on the leaves were clear, the stems look strong……. It was glossy, and the roots were handsome. You were beautiful, you were handsome.”

The endless praise made Baduk’s shoulders shrug.

“Stop fidgeting and came over here and sat down. Let me hear your story.”
