The Homemaker of the Dungeon - Chapter 146
Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 146
‘They say it removes contaminants within a 20m radius.’
And the result was… as expected.
The house is absolutely perfect, without a single speck of dust! It became cleaner.
Even the laundry became cleaner.
Everything in the ‘pollutant’ category in Heena’s mind seemed to disappear.
It was a skill that killed two birds with one stone, keeping the house clean and protecting my body.
“Tsk, now my body has recovered… Ah, Jinhyeon! Don’t work alone! “Let’s take the magic stones together!”
Heena helped Jinhyeon Kang retrieve the magic stone that fell on the floor.
It was dark inside the cave, so I had to turn on the flashlight I brought and look closely at the floor.
‘I’m glad that the cave floor has become clean thanks to the cleaning skill.’
The inside of the cave, which was wet and slippery, became soft enough to lie down on.
Thanks to this, I was able to run around the cave where the boss monster was without worrying about slipping.
After a while, Heena straightened her lower back and stretched.
“I think we found everything we needed to find, right?”
“yes. “It seems so.”
Kang Jin-hyeon came over and dropped the magic stone onto Heena’s palm.
Heena tilted her head.
“weird. Is it because Jinhyeon has good eyes? “It looks a lot better than the one I picked up, right?”
The magic stones Kang Jin-hyeon picked up were particularly bright and shiny.
“…is that so? To me, it doesn’t seem like there’s much of a difference.”
He shrugged his shoulders calmly. He then urged me to quickly store the magic stone in my inventory.
“Because Heewon is waiting alone.”
“but. “If it’s too late, I’m going to grumble a lot.”
Heena nodded and put the magic stone into her inventory.
Part of me wanted to give half of it to Kang Jin-hyeon, who carried Hee-na on his back and caught the boss monster.
However, it was clear that Kang Jin-hyeon would flatly refuse, saying it was absolutely not necessary. Because it was like that last time too.
Heena thought of the people in the Blue Dragon Guild who would put magic stone sleeves in their clothes whenever they got the chance.
‘Hunters don’t normally treat these small magic stones as magic stones?’
It was a huge illusion.
But there was no one who could correct that mistake.
* * *
After that, things proceeded smoothly.
Heena and her group solved the system error by offering the boss mob magic stone to the wilted moss and returned to their original home with Banhwi’s help.
A few days passed, and unlike the last two dungeon stabilizations, it seemed like nothing had changed in the world.
Jiyiing.
Heena immediately picked up the ringing cell phone. Because there was news I was waiting for.
“How’s the situation?”
Normally, Heena would have briefly asked how I was doing, but today I was anxious. I started by asking about the business.
– It is said that the monsters roaming outside the gate have completely disappeared due to the dungeon break.
As expected, the dungeon seemed to have stabilized.
“And?”
– Naturally, the casualties caused by monsters have completely disappeared.
Heena clenched her fists, shouting ‘Yay!’ in her mind.
– Again, this is an issue related to deactivation.
Won Deok-sam lowered his voice and asked.
– Honestly, I’m very curious about what Miss Heena has to do with this… but I won’t ask.
“is it so? “I think you’re curious.”
– It is dangerous to know information that cannot be sold to the outside world anyway.
Not long ago, when he came to use the bidet, Won Deok-sam made another oath to Maseok.
It was decided that all information related to Heena’s request would be kept secret.
Of course, to say it was a 100% autonomous choice… it would be better to just mention the fact that the young black energy in Kang Jin-hyeon’s hands helped him make a quick decision.
– Well, to be honest, I’m curious, but I know you won’t trust me, so I won’t listen to you at all.
Won Deok-sam chuckled and continued.
– So, I would appreciate it if you could understand this as an expression of my will that I have absolutely no intention of betraying Lady Heena! Does it make sense that intelligence dealers don’t try to dig up information?
“I hope what Mr. Won Deok-sam says is true.”
– It’s true. Life and health are more important than a few lines of information. I can’t live without a bidet anymore. I’m going to die.
The sincerity in his voice was so overflowing that it dripped.
Heena shrugged her shoulders.
“Anyway, I may ask you this kind of favor often in the future.”
– Yes, yes. Miss Heena, I can do as many requests as you want.
It was good for Heena to learn about the current status of the Pacific Islands, and it was good for Wondeoksam to be confirmed once again that the bidet was being used smoothly.
Thanks to this, both parties ended the call satisfactorily.

That evening, Heena cooked a lot of boiled pork.
Since I heard good news, I had to prepare a banquet table, and after all, on a banquet day, you have to eat chunks of meat.
The warm, well-cooked whole pork belly was cut smoothly every time I used the knife.
The ratio of moist meat and fat visible in the sliced cross section was fantastic. It was clear that it would melt gently when I put it in my mouth.
I seasoned chives and geotjeori to go with the boiled pork. Cabbage leaves were also slightly salted. A little bit of moisture will escape and it will taste good when chewed.
‘Hmm… And it would be nice to have some sour noodles to whet your appetite.’
The winner was Jjolmyeon.
A lot of sliced vegetables were placed on top of the boiled jjolmyeon and thick red seasoning was poured on top.
After mixing it up and putting it on a plate, I sprinkled some sesame seeds on it and it became shiny and shiny.
“Let’s eat!”
As soon as Heena finished speaking, the two men who had been wiping the table and putting down the dishes sat down.
“Wow, saliva is coming out.”
Heewon swallowed his saliva at the dizzying combination of meat and noodles.
“….”
Kang Jin-hyeon was already half out of breath for a long time. There was no focus in the eyes.
“bon appetite!”
The meal began with Heena’s greeting.
The meat was prepared so that three people could eat until their stomachs were full.
All you had to do was eat as much as you wanted.
You can enjoy the natural taste of meat with salty salted shrimp, or you can enjoy it with ssam or geotjeori. It was nice to roll up the spicy and sour jjolmyeon and eat it.
Heewon swallowed the food in his mouth and muttered.
“This is really… crazy.”
Kang Jin-hyeon also nodded his head enthusiastically as if he completely agreed.
“Heena’s food is always delicious, but today it’s so delicious that I can’t describe it.”
And he drooped his eyebrows as if it was a pity that he couldn’t express in detail how delicious Heena’s food was.
Heena also gave a thumbs up for her own skills.
“thank you. Is it because it feels good? “The food was really good today!”
This was a taste worth being proud of.
It was truly the taste of happiness.
“Now that I’ve filled my stomach, I’m glad! braided!”
Heena was excited and filled two beer glasses.
“A good day requires alcohol!”
Hee-won agreed, and Kang Jin-hyeon asked curiously.
“Heena, why don’t you pour me a cup?”
“Jinhyeon is not good at drinking. “Drink soda.”
The area under Kang Jin-hyeon’s eyes twitched at Heena’s kind consideration.
“I… I’m fine!”
“But Mr. Jinhyeon, you got drunk after only a few drinks last time.”
“It’s not that I couldn’t drink a few drinks, but Heena was so…”
“What am I?”
Kang Jin-hyeon opened his mouth and sighed, as if he felt extremely wronged.
“That’s not it. “Please give me soda.”
“Well thought out.”
“…Thank you.”
Jang!
Three glasses clinked together with a clear sound.
“nice!”
Heena emptied a glass of beer in one go. Then he put his beer glass down on the table and smiled brightly.
“I told you the news earlier! The bat dungeon has been cleared and the dungeon break has been resolved! “Now there are no more civilian casualties.”
Heewon also looked happy.
“Good. Now I can live there with peace of mind. According to the report, there was almost no interaction with the mainland because of the monsters.”
“Hi-Hi.”
It was a dungeon stabilization decision made on a whim.
Perhaps, if the strategy had been a little more difficult or the dungeon level had been higher, the choice would have been completely different.
‘But the level and strategy were the same as the Fly Dungeon.’
Thanks to this, I was able to challenge the dungeon without hesitation.
Above all, it was possible because Kang Jin-hyeon, her greatest strength, willingly followed Heena’s wishes.
“thank you. “If it weren’t for Jinhyeon, I wouldn’t have even started working.”
Heena filled Jinhyeon Kang’s empty glass with gratitude.
“Drink slowly. “Today is not the day to drink a lot.”
As he poured soda and spoke kindly, Kang Jin-hyeon’s shoulders fell sullenly.
He opened his mouth with a strangely… pitiful expression.
“Defeating monsters is something anyone can do. However, without the abilities of the two of you, we would not have been able to stabilize the dungeon.”
“Hey, why are we bickering about each other’s credit? “All three of us did well!”
Heewon giggled and chewed the pickled cabbage leaves.
Suddenly, Hee-won’s laughter seemed to be contagious, and Hee-na followed suit.
Kang Jin-hyeon also had a smile on his face.
“I’ve cleared dungeons countless times, but this is the first time I’ve felt this refreshed.”
“is that so?”
“yes. In fact, most hunters probably feel like they are constantly spinning in a treadmill. No matter how hard you try to clear the dungeon, you have to fight the same battle again in the next cycle.”
“Ah…”
“But this time is different. The dungeons we cleared will never be reset. Should I say that I feel like I have completely broken off a tight chain?”
“I think I understand.”
Heena nodded.
Anyone living in this world today has probably thought that way at least once.
‘How long will I have to live in a dungeon plagued by monsters?’
