The Homemaker of the Dungeon

Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 166

“Huh?”

Choi Sang-hoon gave additional explanation to Hee-na, who looked confused.

“popularity? Popularity is good. “Hunter is the best to be flashy in all kinds of TV shows and advertisements.”

“That’s not to say it’s a nickname….”

It’s a scandal and a rumor. Both were negative words.

Apparently, a man named Fabian Atkins was a celebrity who caused all kinds of controversy.

Aren’t there some Hollywood stars who deliberately become infamous and become famous?

‘He looks gorgeous, so that kind of image suits him…’ As I

was recalling the facial features I had seen through the sunglasses, Choi Sang-hoon smiled broadly.

“Don’t worry too much. “Fabian Atkins is such a lying shepherd boy that the mere fact that he mentions it makes people think it’s nonsense.”

Then he added:

“Of course, it would be noisy if it went up on the gossip channel run by that guy… but the other party is involved with the Blue Dragon Guild and the Falcon Guild, so they won’t make such a careless move. “I heard that you are a person who is amazing at riding a rope.”

“Then we will never interact with each other and we will talk to Minah when she comes back.”

Heena clenched her fists and made a decision.

‘If I even see someone with blonde hair, I have to avoid them.’

I don’t know if this is possible in America, which is filled with all kinds of races.

A post was posted on the SNS of Fabian Atkins, a celebrity in the hunter world and a person of interest.

It was posted along with a short video of him winking and shouting “Make a Wish!”, and this post quickly became a hot potato among Fabian’s fandom.

As expected, this time it was different from the usual posts that boasted of expensive items or interactions with celebrities.

It was the type of gossip about the hunter world that many people who subscribed to his SNS were looking forward to.

The contents were as follows.

The Falcon Guild has a secret that it is hiding even from the government.

What is it about dungeons that makes the Falcon Guild, one of the top three guilds in the United States, so obsessed?

And at the end, ‘Have we found any traces of aliens? Or are you holding a secret society meeting in an undeclared dungeon?’ He added the phrase, and even raised a conspiracy theory theory.

Although it was very vague, it left room for various interpretations.

The content was stimulating and interesting. It was a perfect topic for the public to pounce on.

Rumors from Fabian swept through small Internet gossip magazines and gossip bloggers.

The one who was in the most trouble in this situation was the Falcon Guild.

Even though it was Fabian’s SNS page where only interesting events were posted, it was not good for the story to grow like this.

Of course, since the source of the rumor was Fabian, most people treated it as an Internet rumor.

But there are no unfounded rumors.

Even the national intelligence agency has expressed a subtle interest in the matter.

If the situation continued like this, the identity of the Wish Dungeon might be revealed.

The existence of unregistered dungeons was a very sensitive topic… so the Falcon Guild took special measures.

“They are introducing an elixir at this year’s World Appraisal Conference!”

Heena, who was lying on the bed and fiddling with her cell phone, ran out of the room.

Choi Sang-hoon, who was resting on the couch, suddenly woke up.

“Elixir? Elixir? “You mean that elixir I know?”

“yes! “It’s S-class!”

“Even S-class?”

Choi Sang-hoon’s mouth dropped open.

“I thought the S-class elixir was out of stock right now?”

“I heard there was one left in the Falcon Guild. “I’m giving it to you as a commemoration of sponsoring the World Society of Appraisal Studies.”

Elixir was an all-purpose potion that instantly removed all status abnormalities.

As such, the method of producing elixir was very complicated, and the number of potionists or alchemists who could produce it was very small.

Moreover, if it was an S-class elixir… it was said to be difficult to manufacture unless you had a lot of luck.

It was an S-class elixir that could be made every year or not.

“It looks like the Falcon Guild is also in a lot of trouble.”

Choi Sang-hoon muttered as he carefully read the ‘global issue’ news that Hee-na presented.

“Is it because of what Fabian Atkinson posted?”

Since meeting Fabian, Heena has been spying on Fabian’s SNS every day.

Of course, I found out by reading the post about Wish Dungeon that I posted a while ago.

“I think that’s probably true.”

“Are you trying to cover up the rumor with a bigger issue before it gets bigger?”

“okay. “Elixir is also famous in the world as a ‘potion that makes wishes come true.’”

“Ah… are you trying to lead the conversation to say that what the Falcon Guild was hiding was not a dungeon but a potion?”

There were differing opinions on the Internet as to why Fabian said ‘Make a wish!’

Accordingly, the Falcon Guild seemed to have decided that people would be convinced if they showed off an S-class elixir related to the keyword wish.

Choi Sang-Hoon must have thought so as well and nodded.

“Elixir is a perfect topic to attract people’s attention.”

“Well, there is no one who doesn’t know elixir.”

Since Heena, who has neither eyes nor ears when it comes to hunter-related matters, knew about it, it was as if the verification of its topicality was over.

“But how amazing is that dungeon, so why are they trying to cover up the rumors with an S-class elixir?”

Choi Sang-hoon shrugged his shoulders at Hee-na’s question.

“Well, that’s fine. Even if this was an insignificant dungeon, the Falcon Guild would have no choice but to cover up the matter in this way.”

“why?”

“These days, the U.S. government is becoming increasingly wary of the guild’s power increasing. But let’s say that Falcon, a famous American guild, even has an unregistered dungeon. “If you’re so small, I’ll beat you up.”

It meant that if they were caught, the Falcon Guild would be in trouble.

Heena muttered, lost in thought.

“Anyway… it would be nice if we could get it. A potion that not only grants wishes but also cures abnormal conditions. “It sounds like it’s exactly what Jinhyeon needs now.”

Choi Sang-hoon also agreed.

“that’s right. Since the guild leader could not obtain an S-class elixir, the next best option was probably to have him enter the wish dungeon. …let’s see. The article only says that the S-class elixir will be presented at the World Appraisal Society.”

After reading the article, Choi Sang-hoon groaned and stood up.

“Then, as a VVVIP of the World Appraisal Society, shall we find out how things are going?”

He chuckled.

“The president of the society is not a person who only has the talent to make people sleepy. “He has a great talent for surprising people.”

* * *

The World Society of Appraisal’s ‘talent to surprise people’ was soon confirmed on a large scale.

“…You’re going to use it this way?”

Heena read the conference leaflet with a slightly bored expression.

There, a huge event with an S-class elixir as a prize was explained in large letters.

“I didn’t read it wrong, right?”

Since the interpretation item did not translate the text, Heena momentarily doubted her English reading ability.

“Still, I wasn’t the type of person who couldn’t speak English when I was in school… but it’s strange. “I think the content is strange.”

“How did you interpret it?”

“They say they will give you an S-class elixir as a prize for winning the competition.”

“You’re brilliant. “You read that correctly.”

Choi Sang-hoon praised Heena’s English reading ability. The look in his eyes was very kind, as if he were looking at a well-raised daughter.

But Heena could not afford to enjoy those soft eyes.

“No, Mr. Sanghoon! But isn’t the competition too strange? “You’re offering something great like an S-class elixir as a prize at a place like this?”

This is because the content of the competition written in the leaflet was absurd.

‘The president of the academy… is he sane?’

Choi Sang-hoon seemed to have read Hee-na’s eyes and laughed.

“They say it’s written that way because it’s huge.”

“I do not understand! ‘The world’s most useless item contest’!”

It was like that.

The content and purpose of the event were as follows.

<An appraiser is a class that evaluates the value of an object and redefines its use.

The world’s leading appraisers gathered here at the ‘World Appraisal Society’.

A true appraiser is not one who determines valuable items, but one who discovers value in insignificant items.

Accordingly, this society is holding a novel item contest that will open a new horizon in the field of appraisal.>

…and the theme of this contest was ‘the most useless item in the world.’

It seemed plausible at first glance, but upon closer inspection, it turned out to be bullshit.

“Didn’t I tell you? “The president of the society is a very strange person.”

Choi Sang-hoon twirled his fingers around his temples.

“I think it would be fun to have a competition to draw useless items with all three S-class appraisers as judges…”

As he said, it seemed like it was a competition planned purely for the fun of the president of the society.

Heena sighed heavily.

“Since you are a judge, I am the only one who can attend.”

“Do you want to participate?”

“What can I do? You can’t steal it. So we have to do it.”

I wanted to somehow obtain an S-class elixir.

‘Jinhyeon willingly sacrificed himself for me! ‘I want to do something too!’

Heena also wanted to help him, who was struggling in the dungeon with his small body.

Choi Sang-hoon must have read what was going on, and he opened his mouth insinuatingly.

“I think I can get you through the preliminaries thanks to my connections with the judges… I think it would be difficult for me to go beyond that, Heena.”

No matter how ridiculous the content of the contest was, it was a contest with great prizes at stake.

As such, the emotions were planned to be very in-depth.

“More than anything… do you have anything worth exhibiting?”

Heena nodded to Choi Sang-hoon’s question.

“there is. “I’m quite confident.”

Heena had a secret weapon.

A great item that is so ‘useful’ in name alone, but seems so useless to others.
