Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 148


    “Aaaah!”


    Heena fell backwards on the chair she was sitting on.


    No, I almost fell asleep.


    “Mr. Heena.”


    This is because Kang Jin-hyeon epted Hee-na.


    “Thank you.”


    Heena barely managed to stand up while holding Jinhyeon Kang’s hand.


    I looked around and saw that it was an unfamiliar mountain ridge.


    It was not a mountainmonly seen in Korea. The ck coniferous trees were spread out in abundance.


    Maybe it was because the sun was setting, but instead of feeling reassuring, the dense trees looked like they had taken on a creepy appearance.


    Earthquakes and sudden movements in space.


    These two phenomena meant only one thing.


    Heena muttered softly.


    “I got caught in the dungeon gate again….”


    When I used the ‘Where is my home’ skill, a map appeared. It was a real dungeon.


    Unlike her first experience, Heena did not stay in a state of panic for long.


    “Ugh. “Again?”


    I just sighed softly.


    This is because you have be ustomed to dungeons and emergency situations.


    “Howe Heena always gets caught up in these kinds of things…”


    Maybe it’s because she has Kang Jin-hyeon by her side who cares about her.


    “What about my brother?”


    As soon as Heena realized the situation, the first thing she did was go to Heewon.


    Apparently, three people were sitting at the same table and eating dinner, but one of them disappeared.


    “Because we were together, even if we fell, we wouldn’t have gone far.”


    Heena muttered calmly and searched around with Jinhyeon Kang.


    Fortunately, Heewon was nearby.


    “Heena!”


    “brother!”


    Heena quickly ran to her brother.


    “Are you hurt anywhere?”


    “then. you?”


    “I was with Jinhyeon, so nothing bad happened.”


    “I’m d.”


    The siblings shared a friendship that they had never shared before.


    “By the way, is this what you saved?”


    Heena looked around at the camping supplies piled up around Heewon.


    A dented tent, a chair, a backpack, a sleeping bag, and even an instant ricentern…


    Thestntern in particr was emitting a soft light, which was nothing short of a quick reunion of siblings.


    If it weren’t for the dim light, it would have been difficult for Jinhyeon to find Heewon so quickly.


    Heewon nodded and tapped thentern.


    “uh. I saved it. It’s dangerous to get caught up in the gate empty-handed. “I picked up everything I saw nearby.”


    The Dungeon Gate randomly swallowed everything nearby, including people and objects.


    Even though Hee-won was alone and distracted, she was thinking about survival and was picking up things around her.


    The 10 years of experience as a low-level hunter was not gained through merit.


    “And I thought that if I turned on thentern, one of them would follow the light. “I thought that since we were together, we wouldn’t have been far apart.”


    “What if monsters gathered because of the light?”


    With a sudden thought, Heena snatched thentern from her brother’s hand and turned off the light.


    “You must have found me before that. “If something had happened, Jinhyeon would have found me sooner.”


    Should I call this carefree, bold, or full of faith in the group?


    Heena shrugged her shoulders with a sigh.


    “Ugh. okay. “For now, since it ended well… let’s look for more items that may have been swept away before it gets too dark.”


    “good idea.”


    The three began searching the area, focusing on the ce where Hee-won had gathered her belongings.


    It was around the time that I was sweeping the surroundings.


    The sound of dry branches breaking suddenly rang out. My senses were sharp.


    ‘what?’


    Maybe it was a monster that came after hearing that Heena and her group were popr.


    ‘Is it a battle? ‘I’ve never fought in the dark!’


    Heena took out a useful SSS-level newspaper from the inventory window, rolled it up, squeezed it, and moistened her dry mouth with saliva.


    Even though Kang Jin-hyeon, an S-ss hunter, was by his side, encountering a monster on a dark mountain path was sure to be a spine-tingling experience.


    As I was staring into the darkness, I heard somethinging from there.


    “…I saw something up there.”


    “What should I do if…?”


    It was a human voice.


    The voices gradually got closer and soon the conversation became clear enough to be heardpletely.


    “No, it won’t be a monster. No matter how much I thought about it, it was artificial light. So guys, don’t worry too much.”


    “Honey, it’s dangerous, so don’t step forward too much. “I will stand in front.”


    “thank you. “Be careful yourself.”


    “Kwon Hwan-woong! Watch your step! “I almost fell because of you.”


    “I’m sorry, sister.”


    In that order, they were the voices of a middle-aged woman and a man, and a young girl and a boy.


    Heena was able to immediately recall the identity of that voice.


    “I guess they were people at the same campsite. There was a team of family members. “I guess those people were also caught up in the gate.”


    Kang Jin-hyeon opened his mouth in response to Hee-na’s whisper.


    “Are you from there? Are you a civilian?”


    It was a soft voice, but it was clearly audible because the surroundings were so quiet.


    Then the person who appeared to be the father answered.


    “yes! That’s our guy! Two adults and two children. “Can Ie closer?”


    Heena and the others looked at each other and nodded.


    Not only was he a civilian, but there was also a child involved. We had toe together and protect ourselves.


    e here. “There are three of us.”


    “Thank you.”


    A rustling sound was heard in the grass, and then two adults and two children appeared.


    I turned on thentern very weakly to check the faces, and they were the people I had seen at the campsite.


    “You’re the ones who were at the campsite, right?”


    The first to open his mouth to Heena’s calm question was a short boy.


    “Is this really a dungeon? “So what do we do now?”


    “are you okay. Our group is all awakened. “In particr, this guy here is very strong, so don’t worry.”


    Heewon stepped forward and reassured the boy.


    Meanwhile, the child’s parents stared intently at Kang Jin-hyeon’s face reflected in the dim light.


    “The face somehow looks familiar.”


    “Could it be Hunter Kang Jin-hyeon…?”


    “you’re right.”


    When Kang Jin-hyeon nodded, the stiff shoulders of the people rxed.


    “Thank God…”


    “I guess the rescue team has arrived. So are we okay now?”


    “No, that’s not it.”


    Heena carefully corrected their misunderstanding.


    “We also came camping on vacation and got swept away by the gate. “I don’t think the rescue team has been dispatched yet.”


    “Oh my…”


    In Heena’s experience, it took at least half a day for the rescue team to arrive.


    ‘It was that much when the gate opened in the middle of Seoul, but in a resort forest deep like this… it would take longer than that.’


    Additionally, since this ce is quite remote, reporting of the gate urrence could have been dyed.


    Heena shook her head.


    ‘Then we might have to wait a really long time. Or find another way.’


    There was really only one other option other than waiting for a rescue team.


    ‘…I have to catch the boss and escape the dungeon.’


    It was a method that an average person could not have imagined, but since Kang Jin-hyeon was in the group, it was worth considering.


    A woman who appeared to be the children’s mother asked in a trembling voice as if she had simr thoughts.


    “But it’s safe because we have an S-ss hunter with us, right?”


    “First of all, I think we need to figure out what kind of dungeon this is… I’ll do my best.”


    Kang Jin-hyeon did not give a definite answer, saying, ‘I will definitely protect you.’ However, he said he would do his best.


    However, the sincerity behind those words was clearly felt, so people slowly calmed their shocked hearts.


    “You guys, by any chance, didn’t see anyone else when you came up here, right?”


    Heena thought of other people who might have been sucked into the gate.


    ‘There were a total of three teams at the campsite, including us.’


    There are three teams in total, including Heena’s group, a family of four that we just met, and one team of couples who seem to get along well.


    When these stories were told, Kang Jin-hyeon’s expression hardened.


    “It is very possible that those two people were also swept away. “I guess I’ll have to search the area quickly.”


    A man who appears to be the children’s father passively opposed this.


    “Wouldn’t it be dangerous? “We also have children…”


    It may have sounded selfish at first nce, but since the life of the family depended on it, he had no choice but to be cautious.


    Kang Jin-hyeon also nodded as if he understood him.


    “That is also true. But this is not a suitable ce to spend the night. “Wouldn’t it be possible to at least search for other people while looking for a ce to camp?”


    The couple shared a brief nce at the persuasion.


    The conclusion seemed toe quickly.


    “Yes, then I will do that. “We don’t know much, so we have no choice but to trust Hunter.”


    “Please take care of our children.”


    After making a quick decision, the group shared the camping gear and food that Heewon had collected.


    It was a good idea to pack all the necessary items for survival.


    “I will take the lead and open the way, so Heewon, please take the rear. “Nothing much will happen, but I think it would be good to have someone with experience take care of it.”


    Hee-won grinned and joked at Jin-hyeon Kang’s request.


    “okay. Instead, if it’s dangerous, you have to jump in and save it right away?”


    “We will be on full alert around the surrounding area.”


    Kang Jin-hyeon, still feeling anxious, gave Hee-won a few items.


    The group slowly walked up the ridge.


    Thentern did not turn on. It was dark, but the moon was bright enough to see clearly.


    Kang Jin-hyeon and Hee-na stood in the front, followed by civilian families, and Hee-won stood in the back.


    It was while moving like that.


    “Shh.”


    Kang Jin-hyeon stood tall, putting his finger on his lips.


    “There is something ahead. Judging from his aura, he doesn’t seem to be human, but rather a monster.”


    Everyone froze at his warning.


    “You will see it in a moment. “Everyone, don’t make a sound… you’re here.”


    As soon as the words were finished, the monsters were revealed under the bright moonlight.


    ‘omg.’


    And the group’s eyes widened. Heena was also surprised and covered her mouth with both hands.


    The monster was in the form of a human.


    However, the dull gray-green skin reflected under the moonlight did not belong to a person.


    ‘Is it Joe Zombie?’


    It was like that. The monsters looked like zombies and were staggering up the mountainside towards somewhere.
