Chapter 63
Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 63
* * *
“Ah, it’s Saksin.”
Heena went to work at the Blue Dragon Guild, holding on to her sore joints.
It was a trace left behind from a bloody fight with flies the previous evening. I was so nervous that I even used muscles I wasn’t used to, so my whole body ached.
I patted my aching shoulder and looked around at the face reflected in the elevator mirror.
‘I ate two pots of rice and slept, but my face wasn’t swollen.’
Heena had to eat two pots of rice because she used up so much of her abilities yesterday. There was no time to pay attention to Heewon’s shocked look at her younger brother’s extreme appetite. Because I felt like I was going to faint if I didn’t eat right away.
In fact, this was an energy drain phenomenon that occurred when you consumed your abilities beyond your limit.
Normally, in cases like this, if you don’t drink the potion, you will become incapacitated and have to stay on guard for a few days.
Fortunately, Heena had the ‘Bobsim’ skill and was able to miraculously avoid the energy drain phenomenon.
However, I couldn’t help but feel weak once, so I had less strength than usual. Heena hurriedly opened the conference room door.
“…Lee Hee-na, team leader? “Did something happen?”
Perhaps because her complexion was worse than usual, Kang Mok-hyeon, head of the human resources team, was trying to say hello to Hee-na when he asked her how she was doing.
“ah. Yesterday, there were bugs in the house, so I had to catch them…”
Kang Mok-hyeon looked puzzled at Heena’s answer.
“There were bugs in that apartment? That can’t be possible…”
In fact, it happened not in the new apartment but in ‘Home Sweet Home’… but Heena appropriately glossed it over.
“well. “I was surprised because it suddenly appeared out of nowhere.”
“I’ll call a professional company right away.”
Heena shook her hand at Kang Mok-hyeon’s suggestion.
“no. I caught the bug and completed all follow-up measures. “It won’t appear again for a while, so I don’t think you need to do that.”
“Is that so?”
Kang Mok-hyeon, head of the human resources team, clearly agreed and got straight to the point.
“First, I will give a brief briefing on the Awakened Status Management Team that Team Leader Hee-na Lee will be in charge of.”
He explained the tasks to be done by Heena, who became the team leader and unique member of the Awakened State Management Team.
In fact, there were only two big things Heena had to do.
First, prepare a meal for S-class hunter Kang Jin-hyeon.
Second, it helps S-class Hunter Kang Jin-hyeon sleep.
In the end, all you had to do was cook them a meal and let them sleep. It was not a very difficult mission for Heena, who was in the housekeeper class.
“Then do I have to commute to Hunter Kang Jin-hyeon’s house?”
Heena, who was listening intently to the explanation, raised her hand and asked what she was most curious about. Then Kang Mok-hyeon got up and pretended to ask Hee-na to follow him.
“no. Before that, I have something to show you first. Please follow me.”
“Oh yes!”
Heena followed Kang Mok-hyeon without saying a word.
Although she was given the grandiose title of head of the awakened state management team, Heena’s mental state still had some negative aspects.
And at work, if a higher-up criticizes you, you say, ‘Yes, yes, yes!’ ‘Yes, yes!’ It is a law that office workers must criticize without using harsh words while providing essential service.
Heena followed Kang Mok-hyeon into the elevator and got off on the 13th floor. The hallway was very quiet, probably because people didn’t come and go very often.
‘Are they trying to give me a private office?’
“Here it is.”
As I was thinking about it, Kang Mok-hyeon stopped in front of a door. Next to the door was a name plate that read, ‘Lee Hee-na, Awakened State Management Team Leader.’
“This is a space that Team Leader Hee-na Lee will use from now on.”
Heena went into the door opened by Kang Mok-hyeon.
“wow…!”
Heena forgot her face and opened her mouth in admiration. Everything in the room was perfect.
“We carried out internal construction while Team Leader Hee-na Lee was on vacation. It doesn’t feel like it was done in a hurry, so there may be some shortcomings. “If you tell us, we will gradually improve it.”
Kang Mok-hyeon gestured around the interior of the space while speaking in a way that could not be determined whether he was sincere or condescending.
Heena’s personal office was completely different from Woo Minah’s office, which consisted of one room.
One side had an open window, so it seemed like it had a good view, but other than that, the atmosphere was completely different.
The office consisted of two spaces. It was a private office space where Heena could do paperwork and a kitchen where she could cook food.
The office space was ordinary.
There were chairs and desks that looked reasonably comfortable, and tables and small sofas were crowded together to accommodate guests.
But the kitchen beyond the small temporary wall was different.
“So pretty!”
As I walked into the kitchen, a spacious and sophisticated space unfolded before my eyes.
The kitchen was calm and pretty, like a scene from a pictorial in an interior design magazine.
The sink was made of wood and had a cozy texture. Thanks to the well-organized dark wood color, the overall atmosphere of the kitchen was neat.
Conversely, the ceiling was painted in a soft white tone so it didn’t look too heavy.
The faucet above the sink and the sink handle were all stylish and pretty.
Seasonings in cute containers were huddled together on top of the island-shaped sink that was bent into the shape of a ruler.
Next to it, a small round table and chairs were set up so people could have a simple meal.
Thanks to the small props placed on the tables, it looked like a small cafe.
If it were the original Heena, she would have noticed the feelings of Kang Mok-hyeon, the head of the human resources team who would be by her side.
However, with the perfect kitchen in front of her as a housekeeper, Heena could not stay still.
“Oh… it’s fully equipped with cooking utensils and dishes?”
Heena immediately ran to the kitchen and opened the sink doors one by one.
Every time I opened the sink, neatly organized pots, pans, plates, flippers, knives, etc., popped out. Even at first glance, they were all expensive and luxurious tools.
“wow!”
Heena let out an exclamation every time she opened the storage drawer. It was like opening a Christmas gift box.
There was nothing that caught my eye. It was the first time for Heena to know that the appearance of individual cooking utensils could be so fascinating.
“I’m using all of this?”
Heena poked her head out while looking through the cabinet and asked.
Kang Mok-hyeon, who was watching from afar, nodded.
“That’s right. This is Team Leader Heena Lee’s personal space. Team leader Lee Hee-na had to cook, so we prepared separate cooking facilities.”
“I never thought you would prepare something like this…”
Heena held her hands in excitement and her eyes sparkled. My heart swelled at the thought of having this wonderful space all to myself.
“I’m so excited to work here! “I think I could come every day!”
“You don’t have to come every day, but if you come to work on the weekend, overtime pay is guaranteed.”
Kang Mok-hyeon accepted Hee-na’s heart-warming cheers quite emotionlessly.
“ah. And although it’s rare, sometimes you may need to go to Hunter Jinhyeon Kang’s house in person. In this case, we will make sure to provide travel allowance.”
“You can go as much as you want!”
Heena answered coolly.
Going to someone else’s house and working… may be burdensome, but it’s something I was prepared to do from the beginning.
Plus, due to an unexpected accident, Heena had already moved in with Kang Jin-hyeon once, so it wasn’t difficult.
After drinking together and seeing them get drunk, the distance in their hearts became closer.
“Then what should I do starting today?”
Kang Mok-hyeon handed the file he was holding to Hee-na, who naturally asked what to do.
“Take this first.”
“What is this?”
When I unfolded it, there was something thick that looked like a time table.
“This is Hunter Jinhyeon Kang’s monthly schedule. “Unless an emergency such as a gate surge occurs, we generally operate according to this schedule.”
I glanced at today’s date and saw that several media interviews were scheduled.
It was just as Kang Jin-hyeon said while drunk two days ago.
Heena glanced through the file and asked carefully.
“Can you give me something this important?”
Is it okay to hand over a celebrity’s schedule and an S-class hunter’s schedule like this?
“Of course, this information is confidential. However, in the case of team leader Lee Hee-na, she was in charge of taking care of Hunter Kang Jin-hyeon, so I am passing it on to her because she needs to know it in advance.”
Kang Mok-hyeon repeatedly emphasized that this information should not be leaked to the outside world.
“Then I will end the briefing at this point. From now on, you can commute here and prepare meals according to Hunter Kang Jin-hyeon’s schedule. And the sleep problem… here.”
Kang Mok-hyeon took something out of his inventory and put it down. It was a heena and spherical object.
“Isn’t this a grade A sleeping bag?”
It was Kang Jin-hyeon’s A-grade sleeping bag.
“you’re right. If team leader Lee Hee-na applies the rest buff skill to this sleeping bag, Hunter Kang Jin-hyeon will take it home and sleep in the sleeping bag.”
“aha.”
I was worried that I would have to go directly to Kang Jin-hyeon’s house and lull him to sleep, but I was glad that wasn’t the case.
Heena’s current ‘Comfortable Bed’ skill rank was C. The 20% buff had an effect that lasted for 12 hours.
‘I could just write down the skill on my sleeping bag right before I leave work.’
If the skill was cast around 6 p.m., Kang Jin-hyeon could sleep until at least 6 a.m. the next morning.
While he was calculating the skill duration in his head, Kang Mok-hyun finished his explanation.
