1. Hidden Class Housekeeper
A man with a decent appearance searched inside his chest. A card came out of my pocket.
Heena knew what that was. It was a card key. So, it was a house key.
“Won’t you take responsibility for my future?”
He handed the card key to Heena and told a wonderful story.
Heena’s eyes became the size of a flower lamp.
‘oh my god.’
When I was young, I once fantasized about a handsome lover proposing to me by presenting a ring to me.
I thought a delusion was just a delusion, but who would have thought that I would end up in a situation so absurd?
A man who is said to be one of the best in the world in terms of his handsomeness and ability is promising his future by handing over a house key hundreds of times more expensive than a ring to Carx!
This was a jackpot beyond my imagination when I was young. If my late parents had seen it, it would have been an opportunity to slap them on the back and tell them to catch it right away.
But in the face of such rare luck, Heena had no choice but to be cautious.
“…I am Hunter Jinhyeon Kang.”
“I will entrust everything to you, including myself.”
Kang Jin-hyeon, who is said to be one of the strongest hunters in the world, looked at Hee-na with strong but sad eyes.
He looked so sad that I wanted to hug him right away.
‘Is this the world of beauty?’
I thought he only had great strength, but he also had great heart. Heena spoke cautiously, blaming herself for almost losing her sanity for a moment.
“That…”
“Say as much as you want. “There is nothing I can’t bring to Heena.”

In the end, Heena had no choice but to scream, almost crying.
“Why are you acting so strangely asking me to come in as a full-time housekeeper?”
“How on earth should I say this to the person who is more important than anyone else and will take care of my food, clothing, and shelter?”
Heena had no choice but to hold her head in response to the extremely serious answer.
‘I wanted to live a simple and ordinary life, but how did I end up with someone like this?’
This incident goes back to a day three months ago….
* * *
My eyesight flashed and I felt dizzy.
And business-like letters appeared in the air. My oversaturated mind couldn’t immediately accept the meaning of the lines.
‘Am I looking at nothing?’
It was no wonder that Heena, who had been working overtime for three days and nights, saw ‘it’ for the first time and dismissed it as nothing.
If I looked at the computer monitor non-stop, it was not easy to tell whether I was in the document window or the document window was me.
It took quite a while for Heena to decipher the contents of the sentence that appeared like a pop-up window in front of her eyes.
“…what? Awakening?”
As I stared into space with a puzzled expression, Manager Kwon sitting next to me got up.
There was a light trace of dried saliva around the corner of her mouth, and dark circles went down to the bottom of her chin. The current Heena is probably no different from Manager Kwon.
“what? what? “What else did the client say?”
“Oh no! “Nothing like that has ever happened!”
“Then that’s good… Then what’s going on, Heena?”
“They say he woke up because something suddenly appeared before his eyes…”
While he was stuttering while explaining what had just happened, Manager Kwon jumped up from his seat.
“what? Awakening? Awakened? Heena, are you now an awakened person?”
“Uh… huh? “Yes, I think so?”
She seemed to have completely forgotten about her fatigue from just now, and ran as fast as she could, holding on to Heena’s shoulders.
“This is my first time seeing an awakened person! No, I was there with you at the moment of awakening! It’s so amazing I’m dying. how is it? Does it really show abilities and stats like a game window?”
“Oh, I’m not sure about that…”
After hearing Manager Kwon’s words, I asked, ‘How do you do something like that?’ The moment I thought about it, an explanation window popped up in front of me.
“I’m currently exploring my career path. “I heard it’s a task that can take quite a bit of time.”
It was a strangely realistic explanation. Thanks to you, my spirit, which had been gone for a while, came back.
Manager Kwon also looked puzzled by the unexpected answer.
“Uh… I see. Then, Heena, will you quit the company once your occupation is decided? “Hunter, they say you can make a lot of money if you do that.”
“well. They say that if you get a low rank in anything, it’s not as good as working for a regular company, so we’ll just have to wait and see. “Well, I think I’ll just keep going here for the most part.”
The unexpected commotion of awakening came, but Heena was a fierce realist.
About 10 years ago, a big change came to the world when something called a ‘dungeon’ suddenly opened in the world.
The monsters that came out of the dungeon randomly harmed people, and Heena also lost her parents in the meantime.
It was a time when I was in mourning that humanity might perish at this rate.
People with abilities to fight against monsters emerged one by one. People decided to call them ‘The Awakened’.
The Awakened were powerful. They quickly suppressed the monsters that came out of the dungeon, and thanks to them, the chaotic world quickly became stable.
And now, about 10 years later, the awakened people were functioning as an important axis of society.
In particular, ‘hunters’ who went to the battlefield earned an amount worth hundreds of millions of dollars per day in exchange for their lives.
Because of this, people thought that ‘awakened people’ were an occupation that could earn very high incomes.
‘But that’s all about well-off people.’
Heena knew well the harsh reality of the awakened world because she had an older brother who was a D-class hunter who always came back injured while wandering around in dungeons.
‘Once they enter battle, low-rank awakened people get physically and mentally injured! What do you do if you get a little more money than others? There’s nothing left. ‘There’s no need to worry about your life and worry about your family.’
Her older brother, who is four years older than her, woke up 10 years ago and took on all kinds of dirty work, saying he was responsible for little Heena.
Thanks to this, the wounds on my brother’s body never healed, and Heena’s worried tears never dried.
If Heena hadn’t gotten a job at a small company as soon as she turned 20 and started taking care of herself, her brother might have collapsed from overexerting himself.
‘fool. Now that I’m working, I can take a break.’
Heena sighed as she remembered her brother, who had suddenly left a note and left a note saying he wanted to make some money.
‘My dream is to live a normal and happy life with my brother rather than money.’
Heena, who lost her parents in the chaos, wanted a very normal life.
Instead of worrying that my brother might get hurt somewhere like now, the two of us bicker and worry about making a decent living and worrying about retirement.
It was Manager Kwon who pulled Heena, who was lost in her thoughts, back to reality.
“If everything goes well later, don’t think about washing your mouth. “Do you have to pretend like you know me?”
She smiled and tapped Heena on the shoulder.
“Anyway, since I’m awake, I have to go now. “I’m curious about Heena’s awakening career, but… If you’re going to doze off at work like this, would you like to get at least an hour of sleep at home?”
Anyway, she was also a tired office worker.
The cataclysmic awakening that occurred to Heena did not replace her overdue work or relieve her existing fatigue.
Manager Kwon quickly lost his vitality and waved at Heena. It was an indication that he wanted to go first.
“Take care.”
Heena bowed her head as she saw Manager Kwon walking like a zombie.
“Ah, I’m sleepy. “I want to go home too…”
My eyesight became dark. However, Heena’s work deadline was tomorrow, so she couldn’t leave like Manager Kwon.
“I heard that once you awaken, your physical strength will be better than that of an ordinary person. It would be nice to be able to recover your physical strength while the occupation is decided.”
Heena muttered and stared at the computer monitor again.
There were still some documents left to look at. I had doubts about whether I could do all of this by tomorrow morning.
“Oh, I hope the company goes bankrupt!”
Heena was so tired that she even voiced a thought that all office workers have probably thought about a thousand times.
It was then.
Rumble!
The entire building shook and the ground shook. The objects on the table trembled as if they were cold.
It was an earthquake.
Left alone in the office with the lights on, Heena didn’t know what to do and crawled under the desk.
This is because I suddenly remembered the safety guidelines that say that when an earthquake occurs, you must evacuate by getting under your desk.
‘How. Manager Kwon is gone too and I’m the only one left! ‘I’m scared to death!’
Who said the Korean Peninsula was an earthquake-safe zone?
Heena hid under the desk and closed her eyes tightly. At the same time, a cold, blue light filled the office.
Flash!
A flash of light appeared before my eyes. And in an instant, the surrounding scenery changed. The office with obvious signs of overtime work disappeared, and green leaves filled the field of vision.
It was a jungle. Heena quickly grasped the situation.
‘You were sucked into the dungeon gate!’
Sometimes, dungeon gates would randomly open like this and snatch away ordinary people passing by.
But that was a very slim chance of being struck by lightning while passing by.
‘That’s such a probability!’
Heena has won this unlucky game of roulette.
‘no! It’s early in the morning, so the hunter dispatch will be late. What should I do?’
It was a moment when I was so frustrated that tears came to my eyes. Letters appeared in the air. It was a system guide.
‘It’s an awakening!’
Heena held her hands together and read the system information with hopeful eyes.
If I awakened to the combat class, I might be able to survive here until the hunters come.
‘More than 80% of the awakened people were combat-related!’
Heena prayed earnestly for a combat class to become popular.
‘Please, God, Buddha, Allah!’
And the system window announced Heena’s appropriate class.
