The Homemaker of the Dungeon

Chapter 102



Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 102

It seemed like it would be much more helpful to take a self-defense class for the general public.

Heena’s capabilities were insufficient to understand the S-class hunter’s outlook on battle. It might have been more rewarding for a national representative to teach a child.

“Finding the right weapon is more important than improving your skills.”

But Kang Jin-hyeon was very strong.

“I’m sorry to say this, but Heena lacks talent. That’s why we need tools that can make up for our lack of talent.”

Apart from trying to appease Heena with various good compliments, he did not believe in Heena’s talent at all.

So… Kang Jin-hyeon hoped that Hee-na would set the so-called ‘equipment feet’.

“No, that’s it… From Jinhyeon’s perspective, aren’t there only a few people in the world who are talented in combat?”

He made a lame excuse, but Kang Jin-hyeon simply shook his head.

“no. Regardless of grade, there is something called basic sense. Heena lacks that.”

“But I think I’m better than you.”

Heena was so upset for no reason that she dragged her mother, Heewon, in.

Coincidentally, Hee-won was also receiving training from Kang Jin-hyeon in her spare time, but she felt unfair because she didn’t say anything about him.

“Brother Heewon has been a hunter for a long time, so he has the basics.”

In addition, Kang Jin-hyeon carefully observed Hee-na’s feelings and even praised Hee-won, saying that she had quite good senses for a non-combat awakened person.

Heena got so angry that she shouted.

“I have better reflexes than you!”

There was some basis.

‘The last time there was an error in ‘Home Sweet Home’ and bugs were rampant, I caught a lot more bugs than my brother!’

How busy Baduki was moving his bud to pick up and eat the bugs that Heena caught!

I still vividly remember the shocked look in Heewon’s eyes as he looked at Heena’s incredible inaction.

Kang Jin-hyeon, who was quietly listening to Heena’s proud explanation, slowly smoothed his chin.

“hmm. Heewon said you used a frying pan. Heena, what kind of tool did you use?”

“Me? “Of course, newspaper is the best way to catch bugs.”

Of course, it was an unusual newspaper.

Because it was a useful SSS level newspaper that I received as an epic reward.

Heena took out a useful SSS-level newspaper that was quietly sleeping in her inventory and showed it to her.

“It’s an item from a dungeon, but it’s only a good grade, but it’s actually an ordinary newspaper.”

<Useful Newspaper (SSS): A very useful newspaper that can be used in many ways. It does not tear easily and creases are easily recovered. The true value will be discovered depending on how the user uses it.

*Additional function: This is an item that can hide the grade depending on the user’s situation.>

“This…”

Kang Jin-hyeon received Heena’s SSS-level useful newspaper and seemed at a loss for words for a moment.

It was natural. It’s probably the first time I’ve seen such an insignificant-looking SSS-level item.

“Can I take a look at it for a moment?”

“sure. Feel free to take a look. Nothing special. It’s good for catching bugs… well, that’s right. “It was warm because I covered it and slept.”

Heena recalled her experience of being homeless in a B-class mushroom dungeon. I had a memory of being quite comfortable with the thin sheet of paper…

With a profound expression, Kang Jin-hyeon looked at the newspaper as it was folded, unfolded, and pulled as if it were going to tear.

There was a possibility that it would be torn and crumpled by his force, but the SSS grade useful newspaper never lost its shape.

This means that it maintains a moderately folded and ordinary appearance.

He even took out a flint, lit a newspaper, and poured water from a bucket.

Surprisingly, the newspaper was not burned by fire or wet by water. They said it was SSS level, but its durability was tough.

‘It’s quite a newspaper theme!’

Heena mentally gave extra points to the SSS level newspaper.

“hmm.”

Meanwhile, Kang Jin-hyeon looked around at the newspaper and let out an inexplicable sigh.

After looking at the newspaper for some time, he rolled it up and handed it to Heena.

“Would you like to take a swing?”

“This?”

Swinging the newspaper was a million times easier than swinging the Class A polearm I was holding just now.

According to Osaek’s words, this was easier than ‘eating cold lettuce.’

A whirling newspaper split the air. The snap of my wrist was special because I was catching bugs.

‘Is this the right way to do it?’

Heena felt embarrassed for trying out her own tricks, so she smiled and looked at Kang Jin-hyeon’s eyes.

Surprisingly, his expression was very serious.

“great.”

In addition, Heena was a little confused when he suddenly gave the signal of passing, saying, ‘Good.’

“What?”

“Newspaper and Heena fit well together.”

In response to the question, Kang Jin-hyeon looked at the compatibility between Hee-na and Shinmunji.

“Of course, it is a pity that I have to choose only newspaper as an offensive weapon… but it is well-balanced with Heena and its strength and durability are as good as a triple S class, so I can easily use it as a weapon.”

The opinion was that it was a perfect match.

“This one?”

Heena broke into a sweat out of embarrassment.

When I thought of all the flashy weapons Kang Jin-hyeon brought with me, I felt embarrassed.

‘Outside of all those weapons, the only thing that suits me best is newspaper?’

Although she wasn’t a combat expert, Heena also had a dream for cool weapons.

‘But what about newspaper!’

Kang Jin-hyeon must have noticed Heena’s downcast expression and hastily added an explanation.

“First of all, this is not ordinary newspaper. This is a triple S class item. It is something of rare value, of which there are only a few in the world. That’s not all. The fact that Heena can handle it skillfully is a huge advantage. “For anything, the tools you are familiar with are the best.”

Heena muttered, following Kang Jin-hyeon’s words.

“A familiar tool….”

Indeed. Among the items Kang Jin-hyeon brought so far, there was nothing that Heena could handle properly.

Even the B-class sword that Woo Min-ah had given him as a housewarming gift the other day was trembling and swinging around.

It was a very useful knife when cutting fruits and vegetables!

‘Then is this a psychological problem?’

It was like that. Heena was not good at shouting at others and lived a life far from conflict.

There was no way that Heena could easily swing a sword as soon as she grabbed it.

“Heena tends to hesitate when it comes to picking up a weapon. The mere fact that you are holding a weapon that can harm someone makes you feel intimidated. That’s why I keep making mistakes.”

Kang Jin-hyeon seemed to have similar thoughts and pointed out the same thing.

“But newspaper is a much more everyday tool than the weapons I showed off. Maybe that’s why Heena doesn’t show any hesitation when she swings the newspaper.”

“…That’s right.”

Heena agreed with what he said.

No matter how great it was, newspaper was still newspaper. At most, the only thing that can cause harm is a bug? I didn’t feel like it was dangerous at all.

“It doesn’t seem very dangerous, so it suits me, but doesn’t that mean it has no purpose as a self-defense weapon?”

Heena’s doubts were justified.

‘If you want to protect yourself, doesn’t everything have to be a bit threatening? ‘It seems so useless without this!’

It was like that. The newspaper looked too flimsy to be considered a ‘weapon’.

Perhaps a commercial stun gun or pepper spray might be more powerful than this.

Kang Jin-hyeon began to explain step by step to Hee-na, who was puzzled.

“Making this a threat is Heena’s job from now on.”

“how?”

“We need to practice Heena’s ‘pest extermination’ skill.”

“Pest extermination? But that has difficult activation conditions…”

Heena opened the system window and read the description of the ‘Pest Extermination’ skill.

“Eradication of pests. C rank. Eliminate entities that threaten the peace of the home. Active skill.”

The conditions for activating pest extermination were a bit ambiguous. This skill was activated at all costs if it threatened the peace of the family.

Heena’s ‘Pest Extermination’ skill was activated a total of four times after awakening.

The first was at my first meeting with Oh Saek.

I had a memory of receiving -100 skill by hitting a snail that suddenly appeared, thinking it was a bug that had appeared in the house.

The second was in the dungeon where Heewon was doing forced labor.

When Hee-won, a family member, was in danger, the system automatically cast the skill as if it felt that it was a threat to the peace of the family.

Thanks to this, Hee-na was able to kill the person who threatened Hee-won’s life.

The third person to get a taste of the ‘pest extermination’ skill was Hee-won, a family member.

It was truly ironic that Hee-won, whose life was saved thanks to Hee-na’s skill, was defeated by the pest extermination skill.

It was assumed that the reason for the skill’s activation was that Hee-won went against Hee-na’s wishes, which temporarily disrupted the peace in the house.

The last time I cast the ‘Pest Extermination’ skill was relatively recently.

It was when there was an error in the Home Sweet Home system and a lot of bugs appeared in the house.

At that time, the ‘Pest Extermination’ skill was a fantastic combination with the useful SSS level newspaper.

‘Even then, the peace in the family was falling apart. ‘Because there were a lot of bugs and the house was a mess.’

If you think about it, it is clear that all four cases are related to ‘peace at home’ as described in the skill.

‘But…’
