The Homemaker of the Dungeon - Chapter 131

Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 131

‘I’m glad I don’t have to listen to a complicated explanation this time. All I had to do was literally receive a welcome greeting.’ Heena, who had left to go on a quest for

“Kyaewung ‘ㅅ’”

must have been quite worried, so Osaek shook his round head and even showed off his cuteness that he didn’t usually show.

“As expected, our Osaek is the best.”

Heena remembered the cynical black-shelled snail and hugged Osaek in her arms.

“…The quest has finally been completed.”

Hee-won rinsed her mouth with the water that Jin-hyeon Kang gave her and muttered in a very tired tone.

It wasn’t because of the arduous mission. 90% of this fatigue was due to spatial movement.

Heena also opened the quest window and carefully examined its contents and whether it had been completed.

<Have fun exploring the mirror world! (D): Don’t you want to make the poor ‘Tree of Space (50%)’ that couldn’t find a partner perfect? Let’s connect the two broken mirror spaces.

Do good deeds and explore the mirror world! Truly killing two birds with one stone! It is also possible to gather party members and enjoy quests together.

(Party members: Lee Hee-na, Lee Hee-won, and Kang Jin-hyeon)

▶ Essential Quest (3/3)

– Leaving the Mirror World (Completed!)

– Project to Grow a Strong Tree (Completed!)

– Returning to the Original World (Completed!)

▶ Side Quest (1/ 1)

– Have fun exploring the mirror world (big success!) >

All required quests and side quests are marked as complete.

At the same time, congratulatory messages poured in.

“Wow, it was a really annoying and cumbersome quest, and even the reward was useless.”

Heewon, unlike a person with a good personality, criticized Quest harshly.

…the system window looked strangely excited.

They even shouted out old and strange slogans that didn’t suit them at all.

“But considering that the quest lasted only three days, I finished it very quickly. “We left in the morning, and it’s not even dinner time yet.”

Heena evaluated the situation positively.

“I didn’t know what to do, so I signed up for annual leave with the company, but at this rate, I can just cancel it and go to work.”

At the same time, I planned to go to work the next day.

Kang Jin-hyeon has never worked as an office worker, but he was able to sense that Hee-na’s attitude was strange.

“No, Heena. “You need to rest.”

“But are you okay?”

“Wouldn’t saying that in itself mean that you’re not okay right now?”

Heewon also helped Jinhyeon Kang from the side.

If he was diligent, he wouldn’t miss out on anything, but he was never at the point where he was happy to go to work.

“is it…? “Are you and Jinhyeon going to rest for a few days like you said?”

Heena fell into deep thought.

These days, going to work has been a lot more fun for Heena.

If you had told your past self, ‘You will enjoy working at a company from now on,’ you might have treated me like someone who went crazy from overwork.

‘But the job suits my aptitude, the workload is reasonable, and most of all, there are people at the company who like me.’

It was also nice to have a large private office and workroom.

Additionally, I felt proud when I saw the hunters jumping for joy at even a small favor.

Adapting to the research and development of special crops was more fun than I thought.

‘Anyway, job satisfaction is the best right now!’

It was a different joy from the joy that comes from hard work and ordinary everyday life.

“Didn’t you faint once while using a new skill? We need to check the recovery trend. Absolutely not. “I won’t leave until Heena goes to work.”

However, because Kang Jin-hyeon was very strongly opposed to going to work, Hee-na had no choice but to wave the surrender flag.

“Okay, okay. “I’ll take two days off and get some rest then.”

「♤You did a great job♠」

Osaek also waved his antenna gently as if he was finally relieved.

It is said that before the Gate incident occurred about 10 years ago, all resources were concentrated in Seoul, the capital.

From population to infrastructure and human resources… there was an undeniable difference from the provinces.

However, ironically, after the ‘incident’ occurred, the population concentrated in the metropolitan area began to disperse little by little, and now, about 10 years later, the gap in imbalance has been somewhat closed.

Gates appeared regardless of location, and hunters gathered where there were gates.

And where hunters gathered, guilds emerged one by one.

The closer you are to the guild, the faster you can respond when a gate occurs. This was a huge advantage.

Naturally, the city area was formed around the guild, and the commercial district began to be redeveloped.

In that sense, the ‘Night Sea Guild’ was a mid-sized guild with substance.

As a local man who settled near Yeosu early on, when people think of ‘Yeosu’, they naturally think of ‘Night Sea Guild’.

One of the many dungeons managed by this night sea guild is the D-class non-insect dungeon.

Because there were all kinds of flying insect-shaped monsters scattered about, it was a cumbersome dungeon that required a lot of manpower to clear, despite its relatively low grade of D.

The gate activation cycle for this dungeon is approximately 3 months.

This meant that you had to clear the dungeon once a quarter.

And today was the day to conquer the D-class non-insect dungeon, commonly called the flying insect dungeon.

Due to the nature of the dungeon, many of the strategy team members had magic abilities capable of long-distance attacks.

Among them, the team leader was Hwang In-ha, a C-rank wind wizard. Although his grade was not very high, he was a hunter with seasoned skills and excellent leadership.

She never once gave up on a mission and never ran away from her team. He was a rare righteous person.

Hwang In-ha returned to the guild less than a day after leaving to conquer the dungeon.

“The shortest time to clear a D-class non-insect dungeon is 78 hours. Plus, the distance from the guild to the dungeon alone is 3 hours round trip… How did they come back already? “Has there been any setbacks in the mission?”

Guild leader Park Woong asked, scratching his head. This is because his behavior was uncharacteristic of Hwang In-ha, who values his mission.

In response to Park Woong’s question, Hwang In-ha finally opened his mouth.

“There seems to be something wrong with the gate.”

“What do you mean?”

Park Woong’s momentum became sharper in an instant.

The D-class non-animal dungeon is a dungeon that has been created for more than 5 years and is considered to have one of the most stable activation cycles in the country.

So what this meant was that there was absolutely no need to worry about sudden dungeon breaks.

‘But something strange happened?’

It was quite serious news.

‘Recently, I received information that abnormal situations are occurring one after another… but this is happening even in dungeons that have been stabilized like this?’

It was Hwang In-ha’s monotonous voice that woke Park Woong, who was deep in thought.

“I entered the dungeon, but it had already been completely cleared.”

“The dungeon hasn’t been fully reactivated yet?”

“no. “Didn’t the guild leader receive a written report about the activation of the non-insect dungeon two days ago?”

“Hmm…”

Park Woong sighed. He didn’t have a very good memory.

…But since what Hwang In-ha said, it’s probably not wrong.

“Then what is the possibility that someone targeting magic stones and by-products broke into the activated dungeon and cleared it in the past two days?”

“There is no possibility of that either. “I checked all the CCTV footage of the dungeon entrance, and no outsiders have entered or entered since it was activated.”

Park Woong nodded and shook his head at her assertion.

“Uhm. What is this…? “For now, you never know what might happen, so strengthen the perimeter around you.”

“All right.”

Hwang In-ha bowed his head and left the guild leader’s room.

Park Woong, who was left alone, gently rubbed his bearded chin.

“I need to report this matter to the Dungeon Management Office. “I guess this is the first time something like this has happened in my 10 years as a hunter.”

9. S-class hunter and housekeeper

“Ugh! hungry!”

Heena couldn’t bear the hunger and jumped out of bed.

‘What time is…?’

I looked at the digital clock next to my bed and saw that it was just past 2 am.

“omg. “You slept a lot, didn’t you?”

After finishing the quest, I returned home and went to my room to rest for a while, but I had no memory of it after that. It seemed like he was still asleep.

‘After using the cleaning skill, I collapsed and slept for 3 hours, so I guess I was less tired.’

Or was it just mental fatigue? In any case, it was not worth giving Kang Jin-hyeon five bottles of high-quality potions.

With that thought in mind, Heena quickly walked towards the kitchen.

“You shouldn’t eat anything at night…”

But this was just words. Because of the quest, I had starved all day, so I had to eat something. At least Heena was like that.

Even if it was late, skipping meals was unacceptable.

But…

“Oh, it’s annoying.”

Extreme annoyance caught Heena’s ankle.

There wasn’t even cold rice, and the side dishes were served at just the right time. In order to eat something, I had to cumbersomely turn on the light.

Even if you wanted to eat ramen, which is synonymous with a quick late-night snack, you had to boil water….

“It would be nice if someone would make a meal for me.” “Ramen would be better.”

It was when I was sighing and tearing out my hair.

“Heena?”

I heard a voice from behind me.

“Hi!”

The reason I didn’t scream out loud was purely because of the other person’s good looks… or rather, the trustworthy appearance that put the other person at ease.

“Jinhyeon Ji?”

If it had been my older brother Heewon, my composure and all would have been blown away.

“I’m sorry. “I should have made an announcement, but you must have been surprised.”

Kang Jin-hyeon, wearing a comfortable T-shirt, raised both hands as if he was sorry.

Heena shook her head.

“It’s okay. I wasn’t very surprised. By the way, did you wake up because of me? “It’s really early in the morning.”

“no. “I was awake.”

Hee-na realized too late that she had not used the skill on Kang Jin-hyeon’s bed because she had stretched out first.

“Oh, you couldn’t sleep! I’ll cast a skill on the bed. Good night.”

At that time, I was hurriedly dragging Kang Jin-hyeon and heading to his room.

Growling.

My empty stomach cried out.

There’s no way Kang Jin-hyeon couldn’t have heard that loud sound.

He smiled and opened his mouth.

“What kind of ramen do you like?”
