The Homemaker of the Dungeon

Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 72

‘Jinhyeon’s Robe!’

There was a robe that concealed the user’s presence. It was something that Kang Jin-hyeon gave Hee-na to wear when her older brother, Hee-won, fell into the dungeon where he was working.

This is the dress that Kang Jin-hyeon ripped off the sleeves to match the length of Heena’s arms and legs.

I didn’t know if I could go for a walk in the dungeon if I wore those clothes.

When I thought about it more, there was also a class A defense bracelet that I received as a reward for yesterday’s housewarming quest.

‘Even if you get caught, you can avoid one attack and run away.’

If you take Baduki for a walk without leaving too much of the safe zone of ‘Home Sweet Home’, you will have enough time to escape.

Heewon asked with great concern, as if the serious expression on his face seemed unusual.

“You’re not really trying to leave, are you?”

“I’ve been thinking about it, and if I do well, I think I can take Baduk for a walk quite safely.”

Heena explained her plan to her brother.

“I think you just need to take a careful walk near the ‘Home Sweet Home’ safe zone. Jinhyeon has a robe item that hides his presence. If you borrow it, wear it, and wear the A-class defense bracelet you received yesterday, you will be able to proceed with the quest with relatively less risk.”

“Hey, no matter what! How do you do something so dangerous? “Your body strength stat is barely similar to an F grade.”

“I’ll just give it a try and decide. “There is a possibility, but we can’t just back out because it’s scary.”

Hee-won tried to dissuade her younger brother, who had a solemn expression, several times, but he could not stop Hee-na’s will to protect Osaek.

* * *

The first thing Hee-na did was search every corner of the house to find the hem of Kang Jin-hyeon’s previously torn clothes.

“we are here!”

I thought it was a piece of an expensive item, so I was glad I kept it deep in a drawer.

Next, I picked up my cell phone and contacted Jinhyeon Kang.

[Jinhyeon, do you remember the gray robe you wore for me before? You said it was an item that blurs your presence…]

While I was looking at the screen anxiously, the answer arrived right away.

[Hunter Jinhyeon Kang: Are you talking about the Robe of Stealth? I remember. Didn’t Heena stop you from wearing it to the supermarket last time?]

I think the name of that robe was ‘Robe of Stealth.’ At this point, I was typing a reply that sounded like an excuse while typing on my phone screen.

[Hunter Kang Jin-hyeon: Do you need it? I can give it to you.]

“Huh.”

Heena opened her mouth wide. This is because Kang Jin-hyeon seemed to have read Hee-na’s thoughts and gave the desired answer.

[Hunter Jinhyeon Kang: Do you need it right now? I can bring it to your house now.]

Thanks to this, there was no need to come up with the plausible reason that Heena had put so much thought into.

‘I tried to vaguely say that I would repair the part that Jinhyeon tore in the past.’

However, Heena was very happy when he said he would lend her the robe without asking.

Heena responded quickly, hoping that Kang Jin-hyeon would change his mind or that he would at least ask her why.

[I would really appreciate it if you could lend it to me. I’m home now. If you come, I will leave right away.]

For someone who was about to embark on a dungeon walking quest, modesty was a luxury.

A reply came back shortly afterwards.

[Hunter Jinhyeon Kang: Yes. I’m going to Heena’s house now.]

“Hey!”

Heena clenched her fists and cheered softly. The situation was resolved easier than expected.

I was jumping for joy, but at the same time, my cell phone started ringing.

This was rung in conjunction with the smart doorbell attached to the front door. That meant that Jinhyeon Kang was now ringing the bell in front of Heena’s house.

“Wow, that’s so fast!”

Heena hurriedly opened the door to ‘Home Sweet Home’ and moved into the apartment. And I opened the front door as if nothing had happened.

“Hello, Mr. Jinhyeon. “You came quickly.”

When I smiled broadly and put my face out, I saw a handsome face.

“Heena, are you having a good weekend?”

“sure. “What about Jinhyeon?”

“Thanks to meeting Heena.”

He again made an unfamiliar noise with an indifferent expression. It was a very friendly greeting.

Heena was not used to this type of greeting, so she blushed and just bowed her head. I was embarrassed.

“Here is the Robe of Stealth.”

While Heena was embarrassed, Jinhyeon Kang took out a bundle of cloth from his inventory and handed it to her.

It was a well-folded robe. Or, to describe it more accurately, it was a piece of mat that looked like a robe.

Heena’s eyes, which had been dazed for a moment, sparkled again.

‘Robe of Stealth!’

“Thank you!”

Heena quickly took the robe. Kang Jin-hyeon added, looking at Hee-na who was very happy.

“You can have as much as you want.”

“I’ll use it and return it as soon as possible!”

“it’s okay. You can keep it for 1 year or 10 years. “If you need it, I can even give it to you.”

Kang Jin-hyeon overreacted again. Since this was a somewhat expected response, Heena smiled brightly.

“There is no need to give it to me. I am grateful just from my heart. “You don’t know how happy I was when he said he would lend it to me without saying anything.”

Kang Jin-hyeon paused for a moment at Hee-na’s smile, then lowered his eyes and answered.

“…It’s Heena. Is there anything I can’t do for you?”

For a moment, it occurred to me that he was also shy.

“Mr. Jinhyeon, the house is empty at the moment. Would you like to go and have a cup of coffee?”

Heena opened the front door without realizing it and suggested coffee time to Jinhyeon Kang. As soon as he did that, his expression brightened.

“Is that okay?”

“sure.”

Contrary to the appearance that he only drinks black coffee, he liked the sweet mixed coffee that Heena made.

“If you don’t mind…”

“Come in, please.” “We can share some coffee among our neighbors.”

Heena willingly let Kang Jin-hyeon into the house.

* * *

After a short tea time, Hee-na saw off Jin-hyeon Kang. And while cleaning up after the table, I found an unfamiliar object.

“uh?”

There was something neatly placed where Kang Jin-hyeon was sitting. Upon closer inspection, I saw that it was a transparent glass bottle the size of two fists put together.

The glass bottle was filled with sparkling jewel pieces. The colors and sizes were different, so the light reflection changed depending on the viewing angle, making it very pretty.

“This is…”

Heena was surprised as she opened the lid of the glass bottle and looked at the jewels. This wasn’t just a gem. It was a piece of magic stone.

Even though it was small in size, the quantity was large. If he sold all of the magic stones in this bottle, he could easily make about a hundred million units.

Why is this placed here? It was about time I thought. Heena’s cell phone screen sparkled.

[Hunter Jinhyeon Kang: Thank you for the delicious coffee. It’s a little pricey, but think of it as a replacement for coffee.]

“Ugh!”

Heena screamed in surprise at Jinhyeon Kang’s enormous scale.

‘The price of coffee!’

The price was too much to pay for a cup of mixed coffee that only cost a few hundred won!

Moreover, the person who should have said thank you was not Kang Jin-hyeon, who got the coffee and drank it, but Heena, who borrowed the expensive item. My conscience has suffered greatly.

[This is really okay! I’ll give it back to you when I see you tomorrowㅠㅠ]

[Hunter Jinhyeon Kang: It’s okay. I have a hobby of collecting small pieces of magic stones, and these are just some of them. However, it only looks good and the rating is not very high. I prepared this because I thought it would be good for decorating Heena’s new house. If it bothers you, you can think of it as special weekend work allowance.]

[But…]

[Hunter Jinhyeon Kang: This is an expression of my last name. I absolutely don’t want it back.]

I couldn’t say more because they were talking so strongly.

After sending a message to Kang Jin-hyeon thanking her for the gift, Hee-na looked around at the glass bottle containing the magic stone pieces under the fluorescent light.

The magic stone pieces contained in the glass bottle sparkled like stars.

‘It’s pretty…’

It was surprising that Kang Jin-hyeon’s hobby, which seemed so blunt, was collecting pretty pieces of magic stones.

Even without considering the actual value of the magic stone, it was a sufficiently grateful gift. Because he shared his collection with Heena.

Only after placing the gift given by Kang Jin-hyeon in the room, Hee-na was able to unfold and examine the hidden robe.

I saw an item description that I had not been able to check before.

<Robe of Stealth (A): A robe with a hiding effect. As long as you don’t make a big fuss, there is a high probability that you will escape the enemy’s perception range. However, it only applies to A-level and below.>

The robe that Kang Jin-hyeon tore off without delay was an A-level item. I guessed it, but it was a huge shock when I actually found out.

‘A person who collects magic stones worth millions of won as a hobby and gives them as gifts is of a different class.’

Heena was a person living in a world she could not imagine.

I used the piece of fabric I had and it seemed like I could somehow repair it.

Although Heena did not have much sewing experience, she was good at it. When I went to school as a child, I always got a perfect score during housework practice class.

If you recall old memories and sew one stitch at a time, you will be able to save your robe from its miserable state.

‘I will have to cleanly repair the Stealth Robe and return it to you.’

Heena pledged to repair the robe perfectly no matter what. I felt like if I did that, my deeply pricked conscience would hurt less.

“For now, let’s think about the repair issue later. “We need to put out the fire first.”

In any case, I couldn’t get my clothes altered until I had completed ten baduk walks. Heena held the robe in her arms and sang baduki.

“Go! “Let’s go for a walk!”
