Housekeeper in the dungeon

EPISODE 74

“Maybe the Go Walk event was held to teach me this.”

Although I didn’t quite understand why the subject of the walk quest was Hee-Na and not Hee-Won.

“Was it because I could travel through space every time I opened a door?

It was a plausible hypothesis.

In any case, this quest made it clear that Hee-Na’s Housekeeper class and Hee-Won’s Farmer class were somewhat related.

I didn’t know how the system assigned these unusual classes to the siblings, but somehow I had a hunch that there would be a lot of opportunities for them to interact in this way.

Encouraged by the uneventful first walk, Hee-Na and Badui went on a second and third walk.

Luckily, neither of those walks was too challenging.

The Robe of Stealth hid Hee-na well, and the Bracelet of Defense was a solid defense. Even at two meters, Baduk was as powerful as any monster.

Chop, chop, chop, chop!

He gobbled up one of the small monsters that had charged at me and chewed it up in one bite.

It made a sound like a delicious candy being crushed and eaten. I couldn’t believe how ravenous and brave it looked.

‘I wonder if it would have been safe even without the Robe of Stealth?

Hee-Na thought to herself and glanced at the quest window. Her progress on the Walking Quest was now at 100%.

“Baduk, let’s went!”

She waved her hand to the excited Go player and urged him on, and he turned around without a second thought. She knew she would be back for another walk.

Hee-Na and Baduk walked back to the safety of Home Sweet Home.

“Hey.”

Hee-won, who was sitting on the porch, greeted Hee-na and immediately handed over Go.

“Let’s went to the cabbage patch today, Go!”

Hee-won had been busy lately, as Baduk’s ability to spread fertilizer has increased.

Plants that were previously dying or growing slowly for no appwerent reason began to flourish in response to Baduk’s gold dust.

But it wasn’t just the crops that were thriving; the weeds that stole the nutrients from the crops were also thriving.

Naturally, Hee-won a farmer who takes care of the fields, had a lot of work to do. Hee-won wrestled with the weeds all day long.

Hee-Na suggested buying pesticides and spraying them, but Hee-Won shook her head.

She didn’t want to contaminate the organic dungeon soil with pesticides.

‘Since when did you love the land so much…….’

I wanted to snap at her, but I held my tongue, hoping that it was because I’d gotten some experience working as a farmer.

Hee-na had also awakened to the philosophy of farming in many ways when she became a farmer.

“Hee-na, the peanut field can be harvested now.”

Hee-won said after a quick tour of the fields, where she and Badguk had been spreading fertilizer. Peanuts were Hee-na’s favorite crop, so she had planted them especially for her.

“Already? Hadn’t it just been planted? I asked you to buy seedlings two months ago. were peanuts a fast-growing plant?”

Hee-na sighed, “It was just yesterday that the seedlings weren’t growing well, but already a harvested?” Hee-won answered her question.

“I was worried because it wasn’t growing well, but after I got the gold dust, it grew bigger and bigger every day for a few weeks. I dug up one root and checked it, and the eggs were well laid.”

Hee-won’s face lit up with pride.

“You were so proud when you didn’t even eat them?”

Hee-Na asked nudgingly. Hee-won would never eat peanuts because they make her skin itch.

So this farming was purely for Hee-na.

“So. You were not discriminating against plants because you can’t ate them.”

Hee-won replied coolly and then opened her mouth again.

“Did you want to watch me dig peanuts?”

Hee-won gestured with his gloves, and Hee-na nodded hesitantly.

Hee-won stuck the hoe into the ground, and peanuts sprang up out of the dirt.

Whenever I saw the peanuts, rich in kernels, being pulled out of the soil, I felt like a decade-old traffic jam was melting away. I felt cool inside.

I wondered, “were peanuts naturally this easy to grow? Or was it because my brother was a farmer that he was so good at it?

Hee-na, who was blind to farming, couldn’t tell.

But even she could recognize that her brother’s peanut farming was a success.

The peanut kernels on the roots were very large and plentiful. You could get enough to eat from just one root.

“I want to try this.”

Squatting next to Hee-won as she worked, Hee-na forgot to take one of the raw peanuts. It had a squwere texture and a savory green flavor that filled her mouth. The flavor was mouthwatering.

“Yum!

Oh my God, peanuts were so delicious.

Hee-na forgot all about her worries for a moment and picked raw peanuts and ate them. The kernels were substantial, so even a couple of kernels filled her mouth.

I ate so many peanuts that the system notified me of my status.

‘It told me everything.

Hee-Na shrugged off the system notification.

Meanwhile, Hee-won, who had just finished harvesting peanuts from his small garden, looked back. He saw a pile of peanut shells at Hee-na’s feet and shouted.

“Hey, what were you doing? You were going to eat all my peanuts.”

“Brother, this was great farming. I had never eaten such delicious peanuts before.”

The corners of Hee-won’s mouth twitched as she crammed peanuts on both cheeks.

“were they that good?”

“Perfect. You can sell them as was.”

Hee-na gave both thumbs up.

“Two thumbs up!”

The creepy crawly crawled over and gave her a thump with the outdated phrase.

“I wonder how it tastes? Let me have a bite.”

“You were allergic to peanuts, weren’t you?”

“But can I try one? it was the first crop, so I was curious.”

Hee-won opened her mouth like a baby bird, so Hee-na tossed a peanut with its dusty shell into her mouth.

Partly because she was worried about her brother’s allergies and wanted to keep him from eating them, but mostly it was a reward for the ugly and creepy request to feed him by hand.

“Tsk, tsk! Hey, Lee Hee-na!”

Hee-won spat out the dirt and peanuts that had gotten into her mouth.

“Who taught you to put dirt in your mouth!”

In a fit of rage, he threw a handful of dirt at Hee-Na’s instep, his form of revenge.

“Aah! My sneakers!”

Hee-won cried out as she pulled off her dirty white sneakers.

“Revenge.”

But the laughter didn’t last long.

Blah, blah, blah, blah!

Baduk, who had been watching from a distance, ran over.

Thinking that Hee-na and Hee-won were playing a game of dirt, he quickly dug his way through the dirt, which was crumbly with leaves and roots. Dirt flew in all directions.

“Ack!”

“Baduk, stop!”

“No! No! Stop!”

The siblings and the snail had no choice but to be hit by the dirt that Go had scattered like rain.

Only Baduk, the center of the whole disaster, could shake his head as if he knew nothing.

Hee-na shook out her wet hair and sighed.

“Oh, I’ll live!”

The shrimp fight was a mess, thanks to the giant whale called Baduk.

But at least Hee-won had given up eating the peanuts she grew.

Hee-na stripped off her dirty clothes, threw them in the washing machine, and rinsed off her dirty body.

She rubbed her face and called out to her brother, who was out in the field.

“Brother, I was done. You should come in and wash too.”

“Uh-oh. Okay, wait.”

Hee-won was busy cleaning up the peanut field.

“What should we do for dinner? Did you want to eat anything?”

I sneaked out and asked Hee-won.

Usually, Hee-won decided what she wanted to eat on the weekend, but she wasn’t feeling particularly hungry today. There wasn’t much food in mind.

“Maybe it was because I ate a lot of raw peanuts earlier.

But it was already past seven o’clock. I had to eat.

“Why were you asking me what I want to eat?”

“I was not hungry.”

Hee-won thought about it and suggested.

“Let’s order chicken, it was a special occasion.”

Her brother’s choice was delivery, after all.

Hee-Na was happy to hear this, as she couldn’t think of a menu and didn’t want to bother preparing a meal.

“that was great. You can order whatever you want.”

“Yum, chicken after a long time!”

Hee-won smiled and turned on her cell phone’s delivery application.

Kang Jin hyeon asked with a very worried face.

“Hee-na, were you okay?”

Hee-na shuffled her rice bowl with her chopsticks and looked up.

“What?”

“You seem to be eating very little, and I was worried that you were not feeling well.”

Kang jin-hyeon pointed to Hee-na’s almost empty rice bowl. Hee-na thought to herself, “Ugh.

“Did I eat too much at the head of the table……?

She hadn’t felt hungry since yesterday evening, and her appetite hadn’t been whetted.

No, the food she made was delicious. But it wasn’t appetizing.

It was like eating one meal after another after eating a lot of food.

‘Yesterday, I ate a piece of chicken, and this morning, I didn’t feel hungry, so I skipped breakfast.

Skipping breakfast was so uncharacteristic of Hee-Na, who always ate all three meals at three o’clock in the morning.

“Was it a stomach bug?

But I felt too good to be sick. She just wasn’t hungry.

Hee-na finally put down the cutlery she was holding. She felt like forcing herself to ate something she didn’t want to eat would only make her feel worse.

“It was weird, I was not hungry today. The food didn’t went down well.”

Hee-na’s answer caused Kang jin-hyeon to open his mouth in disbelief.
