Chapter 10 – An Unexpected Job Offer

Minah Woo was incredibly surprised to hear Hee-na’s ‘Home Sweet Home’ skill. He said he had never heard or seen a skill that provides a space called ‘home’.

“This is truly an amazing skill. Like you said, if you want to live a normal and safe life, never tell others. You could be in danger.”

“is it so?”

Since she had received the free house without much thought, Hee-na did not understand Woo Min-ah’s serious attitude.

Woo Min-ah spoke to Hee-na as if making a request.

“I heard you can bring in and take out foreign goods? Have you ever thought that you could be kidnapped without anyone knowing and used as a smuggling shuttle? Your stats are low, so your self-defense ability is low, but you have an unusual skill. If people with bad intentions approach you, you’ll be in real trouble.”

“omg.”

That’s what I heard and saw. As Woo Min-ah said, Hee-na swore to herself not to tell anyone about her ‘Home Sweet Home’ skills from now on.

Aside from pointing out the dangers of the ability, Woo Min-ah was shocked when she saw the first photo of the studio apartment taken with her cell phone.

“What is this house that I won’t buy even if I pay this much?”

“Uh, sister. You said earlier that my abilities could be dangerous?”

“That’s it, it’s so dirty!”

It was an undeniable fact.

“That’s right. So I just cleaned the house for three days and two nights. I just finished it right before I called my sister today.”

“Will a house like this get better if I clean it?”

Woo Min-ah was skeptical.

Hee-na felt like her attitude had somehow denied her abilities, so Hee-na flipped through her cell phone photo album and showed her all the photos taken right after cleaning.

The first thing Woo Min-ah said while quietly looking at the photo album was this.

“…So this is what you cleaned? Isn’t this a completely different house?”

“No. It’s true that I did everything. This was also helped by my skill. It’s called ‘smart fingertips.’”

“What are ‘smart fingertips’ again?”

When asked, Hee-na read the description in the skill window as it was.

“Smart fingertips. D rank. Gives satisfaction to everyone with smart skills. Passive skill… It is written like this.”

“It seems like its abilities span a wider range of areas rather than being limited to cleaning.”

“That’s what I think too. I think it’s a skill that helps me do housework in general. Should I say that it improves my basic skills?”

“Hmm. These skills seem to be very useful. How about working as a domestic helper? I think you can make quite a lot of money by posting these pictures you took and finding a job.”

Finally, realistic advice has emerged. But Hee-na shook her head.

“I want to become a full-time office worker who comes to work on time and leaves work on time. I was a little offended by what my sister said, but being a housekeeper is ultimately the same as a freelancer. I feel very anxious about the fluctuating income, and there are four major insurance issues…”

Woo Min-ah stuck out her tongue at Hee-na’s concise answer.

“You really are a person who pursues extreme stability. You have no sense of challenge in a young person.”

“Safety is the best. My motto in life is to beat on a stone bridge and see others cross before crossing.”

“Hmm. I just don’t cross the stone bridge.”

Woo Min-ah rested her chin and fell into thought at the serious reply. Hee-na scratched the back of her head and spoke as if making excuses.

“Anyway, with a personality like this, I think it’s best to live like an ordinary person, right? So I’m contacting companies here and there to look for my next job.”

“Is that going well? I heard it’s hard to find a job these days.”

Hee-na’s heart was bruised by Woo Min-ah’s unexpected fastball.

“…No. Well, you still have free time, so you can take your time looking for it. I’ve been in the workforce for 5 years, but I can’t find my next job?”

“I’m still looking for my next job, so you’re saying I don’t have anything to do right now?”

As if she wasn’t an advanced hunter, Woo Min-ah was also good at hitting the same spot again. Hee-na reluctantly nodded.

“That’s right. Actually… I want to work right now, but the problem is that there are no jobs.”

Then Woo Min-ah thought for a moment, then pulled a chair closer to the table and sat down.

The sight looked somewhat solemn, so Hee-na sat up straight.

Finally, Woo Min-ah licked her lips once and proposed to Hee-na.

“Do you want to try working at our guild?”

“yes?”

Hee-na threw up her hands at the unimaginable offer.

“Sister, I’m D-rank. Last time, I barely got out of the E-rank dungeon alive. My total body strength is less than 30, and as you heard earlier, I don’t have any attack-related skills. But how can I get into the Blue Dragon Guild? I know that with my abilities, I wouldn’t be able to get in even if I wanted to, even if I died.”

The words came out of my mouth in a rush. Anyway, the conclusion was to not even say nonsense.

“Fuhahaha!”

Woo Min-ah laughed out loud when she saw Hee-na’s pale expression. Then he waved his hand.

“As I said before, not everyone who joins a guild becomes a hunter. A guild is also a separate company. Can a guild be maintained if there are only hunters in the company? There is an office team, a management team, and a human resources team. Surprisingly, it is no different from an ordinary company. Not everyone who joins an entertainment agency becomes a celebrity. It’s the same thing.”

Hee-na’s face turned red at Woo Min-ah’s point.

“I was mistaken when they asked me to join the guild…”

“Okay. So do you want to listen to me now?”

“yes…….”

Hee-na answered calmly. Woo Min-ah smiled at that sight as if it was cute.

“Not long ago, a member of the facility management department’s environmental sanitation team resigned. Oh, what is the position? The explanation is a bit complicated, but it is a cleaning sanitation worker.”

“Don’t large corporate buildings usually subcontract cleaning companies to temporary workers?”

Woo Min-ah responded to the realistic point.

“Because it is a guild where hunters frequently come and go, there are security maintenance issues and some areas require some expertise. So, we are creating a separate team to manage it.”

It was a reasonable answer. More than anything, what caught Hee-na’s ears was the following sentence.

“Of course it’s a full-time job.”

“…A full-time job?”

“The salary is okay. The work is a bit hard.”

“How much did you tidy up?”

“You have to ask the human resources department about that, but you probably earn as much as an average office worker. If you get incentives or overtime pay, it could be even more than that. What do you think?”

At the same time, Woo Min-ah secretly revealed her true intentions by asking me to meet up with her sometimes to eat grilled meat and drink alcohol.

It was a grand proposal fueled by greed for meat slaves.

“hmm.”

Hee-na was overcome with worry. Because it was such a sudden proposal.

However, Woo Min-ah’s suggestion seemed quite plausible, and it was clear that in this ice age of employment, we should grab the golden rope and jump on the parachute.

“But can I do it well?”

“Of course! In my opinion, Hee-na, you are the perfect person!”

Then Woo Min-ah made a call to somewhere and spoke to someone.

“Hey, didn’t we have one person in the facility management department leave the company last week? Are people full? Why is that? No. I’m just curious. I know a nice guy. Oh, so young isn’t so good? No. But he’s really good at his job. I’ll send you the cleaning he did. You’ll really like it when you see the results. He’s really nice and genuine. Yes, yes. I’ll send you a photo right away via text, so call me back if it’s okay.”

The call ended in an instant. Woo Min-ah received the photo from Hee-na, delivered it to the person on the phone, and then put down her cell phone.

Not long after, the light on my phone came on. It seemed like there was a reply.

Curious about the results, Hee-na craned her neck and glanced at the screen.

Woo Min-ah smiled and showed the message on her cell phone.

[Human Resources Team Leader Kang Mok-hyeon: It looks okay. Still, you have to have a face-to-face interview, so set a date.]

The next day, Hee-na stood in front of a large building wearing a neat interview suit she had hastily borrowed.

It was the Blue Dragon Guild.

‘I never thought I would have an interview in such a hurry.’

It was an opportunity that came so quickly that I wasn’t even nervous. I wasn’t drunk, but I felt like I still hadn’t woken up from the alcohol I drank yesterday.

“God of grilling meat! Lee Hee-na!”

Hee-na looked around at the sound of people calling her name with an embarrassing title.

“Here, here!”

It was as expected.

Woo Min-ah was the only guild member who knew Hee-na personally. She walked out of the building with great strides and put her arm around Hee-na’s shoulder.

“Hey, my little brother. I guess you don’t have a hangover. I see your face is clean.”

It was a very close contact considering they had only met twice in total, but Hee-na, who had now roughly figured out Woo Min-ah’s personality, thought about it.

Woo Min-ah was very easy-going and had no hesitation in dealing with people. At the same time, he subtly won people’s favor without being burdensome. He had a very good personality.

“Yesterday, you and I didn’t drink much because we were giving career advice.”

“Wow, look at your kind mouth. If you go today and just say hello, you will pass the prize.”

Woo Min-ah smiled and led Hee-na into the Blue Dragon Guild.

As it was my first time traveling, I was a bit at a loss as to how to get to the interview site, but I was fortunate to have Woo Min-ah.

“Did you come to pick me up?”

“I introduced you, but shouldn’t there be at least a level of loyalty to pick you up and take you with you?”

“I know you must be busy, but thank you.”

Hee-na bowed her head slightly.

Woo Min-ah said it was no big deal and tapped Hee-na on the shoulder. Perhaps because he was an advanced hunter, his hands were quite spicy.

Hee-na smiled, trying to pretend she wasn’t in pain.

Minah Woo seemed to be a famous person within the guild. She accepted greetings from many people with ease and walked Hee-na to the interview room.
