The Homemaker of the Dungeon - Chapter 139
Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 139
“It tastes good for once.”
“Isn’t the effect a joke?”
In an instant, strength and agility increased. The buff duration was also long, about 1 hour and 30 minutes.
Normally, for something this effective, the taste would have to be so bad that it would bring tears to your eyes, but this one even tasted good.
It felt like a morale boost.
“let’s go! “I’ll finish processing it before the yanggaeng buff wears off!”
“Please back up the rear team.”
The melee attack team, led by Kang Jin-hyeon, ran quickly towards the enemy.
The black fog that stretched out from Kang Jin-hyeon’s hand enveloped the huge wolf, and the wolf finally fell down with a death horse.
thud!
“it’s okay! finished!”
The hunters who were backing up cheered.
Since the boss who would give orders was gone, the remaining monsters were like a ragtag bunch.
Kyaaaaa!
Of course, the abilities of each monster were formidable, but they were nothing compared to the experienced hunters of the Blue Dragon Guild.
“I have to clean up after myself neatly!”
The subjugation was completed quickly according to the instructions of each leader.
The wilderness was stained with the blood of monsters.
Now it was the turn of the gathering team, which was at the very end of the attack team, to step forward.
They each took out their tools and peeled off the monster’s skin and dug into its stomach.
It was to collect monster by-products and magic stones.
Usually, this kind of work was done by the lowest-level hunters, but the Blue Dragon Guild’s gathering team was a little different.
Even if it was a mid- to low-level monster, dismantling a high-level monster was not easy. It was a task that required considerable strength and skill.
In that sense, Blue Dragon’s gathering team could be seen as being composed of as many skilled hunters as the combat strategy team of any small or medium-sized guild.
“Let’s get the injured out of the way and build a camp for those who have the remaining resources.”
This is because the gathering time will be longer as there are many fallen monsters, so it was decided that it would be better to stay nearby for a while.
Following the instructions of the general strategy team leader, the hunters moved quickly.
…Except for one person.
“Jinhyeon Kang, what is he doing now?”
The strategy team leader pointed to a corner as if it were absurd.
“I’m lying down.”
“Did you ask because I didn’t know that?”
If it had been Kang Jin-hyeon, he would have quietly followed the team leader’s instructions and done his job.
But now Kang Jin-hyeon was lying alone like a slug in a corner of the camp with his sleeping bag spread out!
He even took out a small rabbit doll and held it carefully in his arms.
It was a peaceful scene that did not fit the bloody, bloody scene.
“…I think people are getting weirder as the days go by. “It’s not an illusion, right?”
At the team leader’s question, the hunters, including everyone, started talking.
“It’s not a mistake. “The day before yesterday, I even talked to the doll, saying that I missed home.”
“It’s been 15 days, so it’s boring.”
“I want to go home too.”
“But isn’t that homesick?”
“How can a person become homesick in two weeks?”
Vivid testimony continued.
The strategy team leader groaned and touched his temple.
“I couldn’t be more sane during battle…”
Even though he was sane, the person who was more motivated than anyone else was Kang Jin-hyeon.
Haven’t you been slaughtering monsters with your eyes on until just now?
‘The person who did that!’
He used to be like that, but now his attitude has changed, saying he’s done all his work.
In the meantime, someone came back from a conversation with Kang Jin-hyeon and tipped him off.
“The battle team finished all their work, and now it’s time to go to sleep, so they lay down.”
…Plus, you take care of work-life balance in the dungeon?
‘That’ Kang Jin-hyeon, who was so thorough that he didn’t spend even an hour a day sleeping during the dungeon raid season?
“Now that I think about it, there were a lot of daytime battles this time. …Now that you think about it, you’ve never had a battle before the sun went down, right?”
The hunters belatedly realized that during the past 15 days of travel, they had somehow managed to finish all battles before sunset.
And of course, at the center of the battle was Hunter Kang Jin-hyeon.
“That’s a really weird thing.”
Kang Jin-hyeon, who looked like a robot carrying out a mission, became like a robot in a different sense.
This is a robot that must lie down at a certain time.
“Why do people suddenly change like this?”
Everyone looked at Kang Jin-hyeon, who was lying in his sleeping bag like a snail, with questioning eyes.

“…Chwi! Etch!”
Hee-won said something at the sound of Hee-na’s loud sneeze.
“Are you sneezing often these days? “Don’t you have a cold?”
“No, that’s not it. Is there any dust accumulating at home? Should I clean it again?”
“…Isn’t that cleaning you did this morning?”
“Hey, I just ran the vacuum cleaner.”
“The world decided to call it cleaning, little brother.”
The siblings watched TV while having insignificant conversations.
Jiyiing.
Just in time, my phone vibrated. The name ‘Uncle Wondeoksam’ flashed on the screen.
Heena answered the phone angrily.
“ah! mister! Long time no see! “Is there any good news?”
– sure! I got a good one and contacted you. So, today, I’m going to use the bidet… Oh no, can I go to Lady Heena’s house and tell her in person?
For a moment, it seemed like she heard the voice of her heart, but Heena pretended not to notice.
“is it so. It would be nice to hear the explanation in person. “If you ring the apartment doorbell, I will open the door.”
Not long after that, the doorbell dinged.
It was a doorbell connected to the apartment registered as the actual residence.
“welcome.”
Heena welcomed Wondeoksam warmly.
Is it because he visited the house for information business, which is his main job?
Won Deok-sam bowed his head, giving off a very different atmosphere from his usual easy-going attitude.
“long time no see. “They gave me a generous deadline, but I contacted them because I thought I would have to submit an interim report first.”
He took out a chip from his pocket and handed it to me.
“First of all, this is the entire data file I found during my investigation, and I recommend completely deleting it after confirmation. “I’ll explain it to you myself…”
But, let’s just try to hold on to the weight with a dark, dead complexion.
Heena carefully cut off Won Deok-sam.
“That guy.”
“yes?”
“Your face doesn’t look very good… Please use the bathroom first.”
When he pointed to the bathroom, Won Deok-sam’s face, which had been dark for a moment, came to life.
“Oh my gosh! thank you! miss! “Then please excuse me first!”
Heena scratched her cheek as she watched the back of him running towards the bathroom in a hurry.
‘Well, since it’s an important story, it would be better to listen to it while in good condition.’
The effect of the bidet was nothing short of magical.
Won Deok-sam came out of the bathroom with a shiny face and bowed down to siblings Hee-na and Hee-won.
“It seems like your mind has become clearer in the meantime! “It’s so dazzling. It’s so dazzling!”
The professional and serious look I showed a little while ago was completely gone, as if it had been washed away by the toilet water.
But that was only for a moment.
“Well, you must be busy, so should we get to the point?”
Won Deok-sam completely changed his servile attitude and looked serious.
‘I just thought he was a shitty guy… but looking at him like this, he looks trustworthy.’
Heena nodded, admiring that unexpected aspect.
“Then shall we listen to the story?”
I’m tired of being manipulated by the system and getting stabbed in the back. From now on, I will move first with the information I obtained from Won Deok-sam!
While his fists were clenched, Won Deok-sam cautiously opened his mouth.
“hmm. First of all, I would like to emphasize that this request was extremely difficult. “The keywords were really vague and there was almost no organic information.”
Then Baduki shook the bud crookedly and rolled up the leaves.
「Baduki: Do you want to taste your fists?」
Osaek interpreted Baduki’s body language. It was friendly.
Won Deok-sam was sweating profusely and waving his hands.
“Oh no! You’re in a hurry! Let me start with the main point. The conclusion I came to is this: In this case, the lack of information itself is information and a keyword.”
“No information is information…?”
Won Deok-sam hurriedly explained further.
“What I mean is that this ‘piece of space’ was discovered only a few months ago. Before a certain date, no related data is available at all. “It wasn’t erased by a specific force, it just doesn’t exist.”
“Hmm. “Then when did pieces of space start to be mentioned?”
“The first report date is around early April.”
It is now August, so it was roughly 4 months ago.
Heena muttered, counting the time.
“I just woke up, right?”
“yes! “What you said is absolutely correct!”
Suddenly, Won Deok-sam raised his voice.
“To be exact, this is what began to be discovered in the dungeon after Lady Heena awakened!”
When he said this, I couldn’t understand his intention.
“So what you’re saying is that the piece of space is related to me? But isn’t that a bit of a leap?”
Isn’t it a bit strange to come to this conclusion that there are so many awakenings that come out every month, but the timing is similar?
Won Deok-sam persuaded Hee-na, who tilted her head.
“According to my research, Miss Heena is the only one who knows how to use this space.”
Basically, by-products from dungeons were registered on Hunter.net.
This was especially true if it was a new product that had never been released before.
This was a global information exchange at the national level.
In that sense, it made no sense that hunters from around the world did not receive any information about this ‘piece of space’.
“Even if it is a by-product that has only been released for about four months, it is rare to find a product without this much information.”
After scanning the entire Hunter Net database, no one had more information than the client, Heena.
Heewon also nodded as if the explanation was plausible.
“…After listening to it, I don’t think it’s wrong.”
Heena groaned and held her head.
