The Homemaker of the Dungeon

Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 130

Red energy formed around the bare tree.

The tree came to life. Red energy spread through the tree’s xylem.

The withered branches sprouted healthy, and the gloomy, drooping leaves lifted their heads freshly.

It didn’t take long for the withered tree to bloom completely.

“You’re healthy.”

“You look so powerful!”

“They say it’s a mirror image, and it looks exactly the same.”

The tree waved its leafy branches in the sky as if responding to the group’s conversation.

The quest completion window also appeared and sparkled.

“Now for the next quest…”

Heena opened the quest window and tried to check the next quest. But what struck the player was a system message.

A message that was difficult to understand followed.

At the same time, a strong gust of wind blew around the tree.

Shoot!

The wind blew through her hair mercilessly, and Heena raised her arms to cover her face.

‘What is happening?’

Finally, the wind stopped and a large message flashed before my eyes.

“Space…renovation…complete?”

It was an ambiguous phrase that seemed almost incomprehensible.

Heena instinctively reached out to the mirror image tree and checked the explanation window.

<Tree of space (100%): A tree of space that grew through miraculous coincidences such as the right place, fertile soil, careful management, and the right time.

The roots of the twin trees connected and finally became one. The roots of the tree address chronic system errors by filling in the chaotic holes between mirror image spaces.>

The long-winded explanation has become much simpler. The warning that it is only available to certain classes has also disappeared.

‘The content is still difficult… but now I can at least understand what it means.’

The information I learned from this was as follows.

First, the tree that had been cut in half by 50% due to severed roots became 100% complete.

Second, the roots of the two twin trees were connected and the system problems (probably what we call chaos holes) were filled and fixed.

And the final conclusion is….

‘This whole situation was solved thanks to the energy of the D-class boss monster Magic Stone that we gave through the quest?’

Kang Jin-hyeon seemed to have come to a similar conclusion.

“I don’t know the details, but it seems like the system was trying to resolve an error in the dungeon through us.”

“For some reason, they made me do a lot of annoying things. “It seemed like he had a lot to say on the topic of systems.”

While the party was thinking about various things and drawing their own conclusions, a new quest window appeared.

<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.

▶ Essential Quest (2/3)

– Leaving for the Mirror World (Completed!)

– Project to Grow a Strong Tree (Completed!)

– Returning to the Original World

① Use the space utilization ability of the house manager to open the door to the original world. .

② ???? (Available after completing the prerequisite quest)

…>

‘Return to the original world’ quest!

It was truly welcome news, as it was the equivalent of saying that the full-scale quest had ended.

But there is a problem…

“Will the black shell snail help us?”

The question was whether the ‘Home Sweet Home’ housing manager, immersed in immeasurable black darkness, would be willing to go through this process.

In the suddenly solemn atmosphere, Hee-won stepped forward, raising her hand.

“Guys, let me take care of this.”

「Don’t neglect my abilities.」

「Wow…. You over/undervalue/appraise the snail you just saw.」

「I’m outraged!」

Persuading the black shell snail was easier than I thought.

“I don’t mean that to be an understatement.”

“Does this mean that you will challenge the snail head-on?”

“I was just asking because I was curious if you could do what our Osaek is doing.”

Heewon gently scratched the snail’s nature.

The snail accepted the quest details less than three minutes after talking.

‘The snail is more hot-tempered than I thought.’

The five colors suddenly came to mind. Oh Saek also had mood swings sometimes.

‘I guess Home Sweet Home housing managers have a somewhat dramatic personality.’

Heena went outside, thinking about the similarities and differences between the two snails.

The black snail stood at the base of a tree in the wide open space and performed the ‘Space Utilization Wizard’.

“Run the ‘Space Utilization Wizard.’”

As expected, this snail kept making sounds that sounded like old computer system language.

And for several dozen seconds, the black shell shines brightly like obsidian.

「’Space Utilization Wizard’ completed!」

「A passage leading to the mirror image space has been secured!」

A pitch-black hole opened next to the tree.

It was still barely big enough to fit an adult.

The pitch-black hole seemed ominous, as if you couldn’t see even an inch in front of you.

However, Heena and the others found out that this hole was a passage to the original world. That was on my way home from work!

The next quest was also opened.

<…

– Returning to the original world

① Use the house manager’s space utilization ability to open the door to the original world. (Complete!)

② Arrive in the original world and be welcomed by the house manager.

…>

The quest was to return home using the passage to the mirror world. There were no detailed quests to follow.

This meant that the quest was truly over.

“Finally going home! Even bald heads can escape!”

Heewon shouted in a very happy voice.

“Leave, invaders from the opposite world.”

The black snail also crawled and erected its antennae stiffly.

“Shall we go back?”

Kang Jin-hyeon extended his hand to Hee-na. It seemed like they were going to hold hands in that order, Kang Jin-hyeon, Hee-won, and Hee-won, just like when they came here.

“wait a minute. Please give me a few seconds.”

Heena waved her hands in a panic.

“It’s a snail!”

“…Heh. “You’re giving me trouble.”

The black shell snail turned and looked back. Maintaining form was very ingrained in me.

“It was nice to meet you, Black Snail, and thank you for opening the door.”

「Kkkkkk. “You are a human being who knows grace.”

“Well… That’s right. Let’s say so.”

Heena laughed and scratched her head.

“This is how we part ways, but if we meet again in the future, can I give you your name?”

“…Name?”

“Yes. name. “I can’t keep calling you Black Snail.”

For some reason, I felt like I was going to meet this snail, the house manager of the Mirror World Dungeon, again.

There was no plausible basis. But I felt a strong premonition.

“Next time, I’ll bring some cool name candidates that might suit you.”

“That’s nonsense.”

“That’s just how I feel. “It’s okay as long as you don’t like it.”

Heena cheerfully accepted the snail’s response. And he said hello calmly.

“Then we’ll just go. “I hope you are doing well and not being lonely.”

“…“Solitude” is my true friend.”

The concept of the snail remained firm until the end.

‘Will you still be going through a stormy period when we meet next time?’

Heena giggled and walked towards the two men who were waiting for her.

“Do you think you have become attached to him in the meantime?”

“Maybe so. Anyway, it resembles five colors… and is cute in its own way.”

“You’re feeling really good too.”

As I was whispering with Hee-won, Jin-hyeon Kang quietly grabbed Hee-na’s hand. A warm, firm palm wrapped the back of Heena’s hand.

“Then can we leave now?”

“Oh, of course!”

Heena quickly grabbed Heewon with her free hand.

“I will enter the entrance.”

“yes!”

The group entered the black door in order.

I felt extreme dizziness along with the feeling that the space was distorting.

The motion sickness I felt when passing through the black passage still persisted. No, it seemed to have gotten even worse.

“Woof! “Wooow!”

“Aaaah….”

The siblings cried out freshly, like ghouls who had just risen from the grave.

This means that it was weak for a human being and had a lot of strength for a corpse.

Kang Jin-hyeon, the only one among them who could stand tall on two legs, patted the two on their backs.

“Calm down. “Would you like a few sips of the potion?”

“Uuuhnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn I’m gonna throw up if I eat this…Uhhhh.”

Heewon finally ended up spitting out clear water.

Even while suffering from dizziness, Heena hurriedly walked away from her dirty brother.

“It’s dirtier…”

While the siblings were dancing wildly to the blues, familiar footsteps came closer.

Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk!

It was the sound of the correct foot steps of baduki.

“Go!”

Heena flopped down on the floor and waved her hands helplessly.

Osaek, who was riding on the leaf of Baduki, was worried about Heena and Heewon’s condition.

「Status is so bad. “Ah you okay?”

“Not okay.”

“no! Incorrect answer!」

「Gook rule = I’m fine, thank you and you?」

Osaek forced the siblings to recover.

Perhaps thanks to the enthusiastic support, Heena and Heewon soon gained strength.

“Ugh, I’m going to survive now.”

I stretched and stood up, and only then did Osaek give me a welcome greeting.

「Bangabanga^^)/」

And with that, the quest completion window flashed.
