Chapter 133
Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 133
“Anyway, I can’t turn this house into a magic stone-eating hippopotamus.”
“Ta-ha-uu.”
Heena patted the head of Osaek, who was sending out strange strings of strings. Kang Jin-hyeon, who was looking at that scene, opened his mouth.
“Then the only way left is…”
“Yes. There is only one option left. “It’s an option to completely fix the flaws of Home Sweet Home with a piece of space.”
“You got the space fragment by chance in the dungeon, right? “Is it just what we want?”
When Heewon asked, Heena shook her head.
“no. But if you get tired, you’ll win every battle! “Why don’t we learn a bit about space sculpture first and decide what to do next?”
The target deadline is before the Maseok service ends, so roughly four months.
Heena was planning to get as much information as possible and find a way.
“Tah…!”
“Let’s be quiet. Five colors.”
“…Sigh.”
I didn’t want to lose my house and Osaek like this, so I should try something!
After some time, Heena contacted Won Deok-sam for information.
– hello? Miss Heena, how have you been?
Won Deok-sam answered the phone in a fuss. This was the first time Heena contacted me first.
– If you need anything, just let us know! This Mr. One! We will handle anything within our capabilities. Oh, my co-worker doesn’t seem to have a very good personality these days… Do you think I’ll show off a bit harshly? Of course, this is a free service.
He spoke in a friendly tone and made eerie sounds that seemed like a person from another world.
“Oh no. There’s no need for that. “Why would I tell you to hit someone!”
Hee-na doesn’t know how Won Deok-sam knew about Yu-han, but he managed to protect him.
Won Deok-sam changed his words in an instant and laughed.
– Haha, I meant it as a joke. Well, the person who saved the life of someone like me is violent! That’s nonsense!
As expected, it is the type that looks like its mouth will float even if it falls into the water.
Heena roughly cut off his chatter and got straight to the point.
“I contacted you because I had a request for you.”
Won Deok-sam was overjoyed.
– oh! I can’t believe I’m finally able to do something! I’m glad!
He was always anxious because he couldn’t do something for his ‘guardian of pleasure.’
“I wanted you to find something for me. “It’s a silver coin-shaped dungeon by-product called ‘Piece of Space.’”
– hmm. This is my first time hearing about a ‘piece of space’.
Heena explained as much as she knew about the pieces of space.
You can get it in a dungeon, and I found it because I needed it at Heena’s Home Sweet Home….
“…This is about it.”
– ah. Is it that much?
Won Deok-sam stuttered a little. I guess there was a lot less information than I thought.
‘At least he knows my Home Sweet Home skills, so if I hadn’t told him this much, there wouldn’t have been much I could tell him.’
Heena asked him to gather information that seemed to be related to pieces of space.
“Of course, it would be better if you could get a piece of the space yourself.”
Won Deok-sam’s voice touched my soul as he offered to provide an additional bathroom pass if he did so.
– certainly! We will find it!
The number of visits was limited to once every 10 days, but it seems that this was not enough for a person suffering from constipation.
“I’ll give you a deadline of about a month. “Please do me a favor.”
– sure. Trust this Mr. One!
This is how the call ended.
* * *
While Hee-na asked Won Deok-sam for information about the space sculpture, Hee-won went out to the front yard of the dungeon and turned over the dirt.
“I found it, Heena!”
Heewon □□□ □□ found a ‘seed’ and shook it.
When a piece of space was used, a seed was created. And the description of this seed was as follows.
<□□□ □□: Seeds. Should I plant it in the ground first to confirm its identity? (The information cannot be fully confirmed due to lack of ability.)>
Neither the name nor the exact identity was known.
In the past, Heewon had planted two seeds one by one in the front yard of the dungeon following the instructions from the explanation window.
One of them was hit with Baduki’s gold dust and grew into a tree of space, while the other did not sprout.
The Heena siblings remembered that and searched the yard for the one remaining seed.
This is because I had a feeling that the seed might also be an important clue at a time when we need a little more information about pieces of space.
‘I guess it has something to do with it since it’s leftovers from using a piece of space.’
And they finally found the seeds.
“Let’s look at the explanation window.”
Heena, Heewon, and Jinhyeon Kang gathered together and checked the seed’s explanation window.
Perhaps because the siblings’ abilities have improved compared to before, the explanation appeared correctly this time.
<Seed of Space: A seed created after using a Piece of Space. If you plant it in suitable dungeon soil and provide proper nutrition, it will sprout.
*Dungeon information value: (37.631748 127.108197)>
Fortunately, Jinhyeon Kang was also able to confirm the contents this time.
The three brought the dirt-covered seeds into the living room and started gossiping.
“…I think it means that this seed must be planted in the dungeon soil corresponding to the given information value in order for it to sprout.”
Heena nodded slowly.
“but. The description of the tree in the last space was written like this. “By great coincidence, it was planted in the right soil and was able to sprout.”
What I meant was that the seed was planted in a dungeon that coincidentally matched the information value.
It was truly a great coincidence.
Heena’s luck stat is probably a joke that wouldn’t have happened if she hadn’t worked hard!
“Anyway, the explanation part has been resolved.”
Heena groaned and opened the explanation window.
The numbers 37.631748 127.108197 were listed.
“What are these strange numbers? “Are these coordinates?”
Kang Jin-hyeon, who had been deep in thought, lifted his head up from Hee-na’s muttering.
“okay. Coordinates… I think they are coordinates.”
“coordinate?”
The siblings’ eyes were focused on Kang Jin-hyeon. It meant asking for an explanation.
“A combination of latitude and longitude can represent location information on Earth.”
Heewon agreed with his explanation.
“Jinhyeon’s words are plausible. By the way, how do you find the location? “I don’t know how to find the location with numbers like these…”
Heena held up her phone and shook it.
“Would you like to search for it?”
A proper modern person must be willing to dive into the sea of information.
“Thirty-seven points, six-three…one-seven…four-eight. And one hundred and twenty-seven points, one ball, eight… one nineteen seven.”
Heena picked up her phone, entered a number, and pressed the search button.
Search results were available quickly.
“It’s true! “I guess these were map coordinates!”
There was only one result, and it pointed to a location on the map.
Heena was excited and pressed her face to the cell phone display.
“This is… um. “If you look at the place name, it’s Korea.”
I saw a place name called Taereung nearby and it was difficult to pinpoint the location as it was in the middle of a large vacant lot.
“Isn’t Taereung where there was an athletes’ village a long time ago?”
Heewon muttered, recalling a distant memory.
But that was before the ‘Gate’ appeared in the world.
I don’t know what it was like before, but at least now it doesn’t seem like a place where many people live.
“What do we have now? “I can’t see much of the city nearby… It seems like an empty area.”
Meanwhile, Kang Jin-hyeon, who was sitting next to Hee-na and staring at the map, suddenly opened his mouth.
“…There is a famous dungeon near Taereung. Looking at the location, it seems to be there. No, that’s right.”
“Jinhyeon, is this a dungeon you know?”
“yes. “This is a dungeon that Heena also knows about.”
My eyes widened.
“A dungeon I know about?”
“yes. Do you remember the rabbit dungeon?”
“…yes.”
Heena nodded with a nervous expression.
The memory of running around chasing a cute rabbit in a green garden was still vivid.
‘I vividly remember the scene where a cute rabbit instantly turned into a disgusting mud monster.’
It was a dungeon that Kang Jin-hyeon and I frequented frequently for Heena’s pest extermination skill quest.
“Was that the Taereung dungeon here?”
Jinhyeon Kang answered yes and added an explanation.
“It is one of the safest dungeons in the country. The boss mob activation cycle is 2 months and it is easy to attack, so it is used as a practice ground for beginner hunters. And…”
“And?”
As he continued talking, he paused, so when I asked him why, he shook his head.
“…no. “The words came out in vain.”
It was a very unnatural moment, but Heena had good manners and pretended not to notice the situation.
“all right. So, does this mean that if you plant this seed in the rabbit dungeon and Baduki gives it fertilizer, a tree will grow?”
“Then you might get a quest that makes you bald again.”
Hee-won was worried again, so Oh-saek, who was watching the scene from the side, comforted him.
“What’s wrong with being bald~ They’re so cool~”
‘In some ways, even snails are bald…’
Heena looked away, pretending not to notice.
“Anyway, that’s for later… Rather than plant it, let’s get the feeling first.”
In the first place, we decided to investigate the seeds of space because of the fragments of space, so digging up information was a priority rather than planting.
The research method was discussed in advance. I decided to ask for help from appraiser Choi Sang-hoon of the Blue Dragon Guild.
“I’ll go to work tomorrow and ask Mr. Sang-hoon for a favor.”
According to Jin-Hyeon Kang, Choi Sang-Hoon was a person with a heavy mouth. He was one of only three S-class appraisers in the world.
He said that he would never spill nonsense to anyone because he knew how much weight his words had.
‘I feel a bit sorry to ask such a great person a personal favor…’
But I couldn’t turn a blind eye to the family issue just because it was embarrassing.
‘Besides, I also need to figure out this situation! I feel like I’m caught up in the system every time.’
There were once or twice that I was confused and had no idea what was going on.
Now, I wanted to find out what the pieces of space were and what the seeds of space were, so that I could be swayed by knowing something, even if I had to be swayed by it.
There may be a reason why the system constantly hands over strange contracts and error quests to the Heena siblings.
