The Homemaker of the Dungeon

Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 54

Of course, although she now lives in ‘Home Sweet Home’, Heena was also a resident of a new apartment.

Since I just moved in, I thought it would be nice to give some madeleines to my neighbors.

Heena took action immediately. I held a beautifully wrapped bag of madeleines and rang the bell next door.

Ding dong ding dong. I rang the bell and waited for a while, but there was no answer. I rang the bell again, but there was no sign.

‘I guess there’s no one home since I went to work.’

Heena had no choice but to fail to achieve her goal and went down to the security room. Fortunately, there was someone in the security room.

“hello teacher. “I am a new resident in room 1211.”

When I knocked on the window and greeted him warmly, the security guard greeted me face to face.

“Oh, hello. “What’s going on?”

“I baked some cookies today. “I would like to greet you as you move in.”

When I handed over the wrapped madeleine, a smile appeared on the security guard’s face. After all, there was no gift better than food to melt people’s hearts.

“No, all of this… Thank you, miss. “I will eat well.”

“I would really appreciate it if you enjoyed it.”

Heena bowed her head and tried to turn around, but then remembered the front door that wouldn’t open and asked.

“Oh, by the way. Do you know when the person living in room 1212 gets off work? “I went to say hello, but he wasn’t there.”

“ah. “Do you mean room 1212?”

At the question, the security guard’s expression changed strangely.

So is number 1212 actually one of the residents? It was time to think.

“I’ve never seen the occupants of room 1212 while working here.”

“You’ve never seen it before?”

Heena’s eyes widened at the unexpected answer.

“It seems like it’s been a long time since I moved in here, but he’s such a ghost. Since I see people coming and going periodically to take care of the house, it seems like they live there. “I do a lot of small things like construction.”

He was an unusual person who had no interaction with those around him. Heena, who always said hello to her neighbors wherever she went, was a type of person that seemed quite surprising.

“Then you can’t give me this…?”

Heena looked down at the madeleines she had packed separately for the neighbors.

“It will probably be difficult. “I went to the local representative a few times to get some kind of consent, but he said he never came out.”

‘I wanted to show off with my neighbor during this time.’

Unfortunately, I had no choice but to give the madeleine I made for gift number 1212 to the security guard to share with a colleague.

In response, the security guard thanked him several times and said he would enjoy the meal. And he said it in passing.

“Room 1211 was always vacant, but I’m really glad that such a nice lady came in.”

There was sincerity in his voice. Heena smiled and said hello again, wishing you good luck in the future.

Although it wasn’t a house I would actually live in, I felt fortunate that I had found a good place to live.

The next place we headed to after the security office was the Blue Dragon Guild.

You might wonder why going to work during the vacation period is a good idea, but Heena wanted to bring the madeleines on the same day they were baked if possible.

Because anything made on the same day tastes best.

When we arrived at the guild, it was afternoon break time.

The first place Heena stopped by was the environmental sanitation team office. I said a belated goodbye to my team members and handed out madeleines one by one.

“I’m sorry for leaving without even completing half a year. “You taught me a lot of things, but we have to hire new people again, right?”

Personally, I felt very sorry. Isn’t it like I was taught the job properly and became useful, but ended up being transferred to another department?

“Oh my. no. Since Heena came in, we have been very comfortable. Thanks to that bed skill, hunters have become much calmer. “He slept well without any complaints.”

“okay. What is there to be sorry about? I’m leaving because everything went well. How good did you have to be to get promoted so quickly from employee to team leader? Heena, don’t forget me! “Let’s make some golden connections.”

The team members burst into laughter at someone’s joke.

“is it so. Heena, thank you for your hard work. Heena is sincere and meticulous, so she will be able to do well even if she gets to a higher position.”

Team leader Kim Hwa-soon held my hand tightly and patted me.

‘They’re good people…’

The tips of my nose twitched at the compliments from the environmental cleanup team members.

Thinking that I would no longer work with these people in the future made me feel empty. This is because Heena was one of the nicest coworkers I’ve ever met.

“I was so grateful for being treated so well. It was really fun working together.”

Heena’s eyes became moist.

“You’re going to continue working in the same building, but you’re making it sound like you’re breaking up forever?”

Then, one of the team members brightened the mood by teasing Heena, who was overcome with sentimentality.

“Iknow, right. “I hope I can see you often in the future… I’m sad that you’re leaving for no reason.”

Heena sniffled and promised to visit the environmental sanitation team often.

“When I have time, I’ll come down to the hunter lounge and cast ‘Comfortable Bed’.”

“Oh, there’s no need to overdo it because I’m grateful just by saying the words.”

Heena took a long time to say goodbye to the environmental cleanup team members.

After Heena left, the environmental beautification team members shared madeleines and chatted.

“My dexterity is good. “How did they make the bread so delicious?”

“The fingertips are soft and stick together well. “If I had a son, I would have introduced him to him.”

“that’s right. “Whoever marries Heena is blessed.”

Someone’s words made the place noisy.

“I already wanted to introduce a good person to Heena, but I was cautious because we were on the same team. “Since you’re on a different team, shall we take this opportunity to arrange a seat for you?”

“Heena, you are now the Blue Dragon Guild team leader. “Can you find someone of the right level?”

“sure. I know a good person. He has a good face and good skills…”

That was the moment when one of the team members picked up his cell phone and made a fuss.

An uninvited guest intervened.

“you worked hard.”

Kang Jin-hyeon appeared without a word or rumor.

He stared at his teammates who were chatting excitedly for a while and then slowly opened his mouth.

“…I spilled slime liquid in my office, so please clean it up.”

“is it so? “If you leave the slime solution for a long time, it can be a big problem.”

The environmental cleanup team members quickly got up from their seats. Thanks to this, the story of Heena’s blind date seemed to be quickly forgotten.

“Let’s go and clean it up quickly!”

Kang Jin-hyeon stared at the backs of people moving away in a noisy manner. For a moment, I felt a strange feeling in that gaze.

The phone rang and a message flashed on the screen.

[Lee Hee-na: Jin-hyeon! I made some snacks. I’m at the guild now, would you like some?]

It was a kind message, as Heena is kind to everyone. For some reason, it was difficult to take his eyes off the text, so Kang Jin-hyeon looked down at the message for a long time.

* * *

After saying goodbye and leaving the office, I sent a text message to Woo Min-ah and Kang Jin-hyeon. I made something and brought it to work and asked if I would like some.

Rrrr….

As soon as I sent the text, I suddenly got a call from Minah Woo. As I hurriedly received it, I heard an excited voice.

– It’s your day off. Why did you do that? I’ve finished all my work for today. Would you like to come to my office?

I contacted him via text message in advance because I was worried he might be working, but I was glad to hear that nothing happened.

“If you show me your office, I’ll go there.”

Minah Woo told us the location of her office in a somewhat excited voice. When I hung up the phone and looked at the screen, there was no reply from Kang Jin-hyeon.

‘I guess you’re busy.’

Heena decided that if Jinhyeon Kang could not contact her, she would gift the madeleine to a passing hunter. Because I can’t take the gift back home like this.

As soon as I arrived in front of Woo Min-ah’s office while thinking about this and that, the office door burst open.

“Heena!”

Heena was startled by the open door before she even knocked. Woo Min-ah dragged Hee-na, who looked like a startled rabbit, by the arm and made her sit on a chair.

“sorry. Were you surprised when the door suddenly opened? “I was waiting because you said you would come.”

Woo Min-ah smiled and poured her a cup of mixed coffee in a paper cup. Heena belatedly came to her senses from the sweet smell wafting through the office.

“Did you realize I was here just by hearing my footsteps? “High-rank hunters are truly amazing.”

Woo Min-ah waved her hand.

“no way. Unless it’s during a battle, I don’t really feel it when I’m distracted. I was alert when you said you were coming. “You have to be as strong as Kang Jin-hyeon to be able to sense a presence across the room without much concentration.”

“Ah… It would be very uncomfortable to feel that way on a daily basis.”

It was scary to even imagine how tiring it would be if I was more sensitive than others to noises or presence around me.

“Well, he probably has his own way of coping.”

Woo Min-ah shrugged her shoulders and answered. At the same time, I glanced at the paper bag in Heena’s hand. He seemed curious about what was inside it.

Heena chuckled and placed the madeleine envelope on the table.

“I did a lot of baking and brought it to share with people around me.”

“Baking? Do you do that too? “That’s amazing!”

Woo Minah sniffed and stared at Madeleine.

“I tried it for the first time today. Still, it went better than I expected.”

Meanwhile, Heena secretly boasted about her skills.
