Housekeeper in the Dungeon Episode 128


    “Dungeon Wreck King Quest… Completed?”


    “Ah, have youe to your senses?”


    Kang Jin-hyeon weed Hee-na. And he congratted me onpleting the quest in a rather excited voice.


    “It’s good that youpleted the quest. “Heena has been busy so she hasn’t been able to train on pest extermination skills, but now she’s finally been able toplete all the quests.”


    “Is that so…?”


    Soon, quest rewards began to appear one by one before Heena’s eyes.


    “…Unlock new skills with additional rewards?”


    Just raising the existing skill rank was enough of a scam, but getting one more new skill… It was an amazing reward.


    ‘What is it?’


    Heena swallowed dry saliva.


    As always, the system stalled a lot in important situations.


    After some time, the system window finally popped up with text.


    Heena read along the system window in a dazed voice.


    “…cleaning?”


    Soon, a skill description window appeared.


    <General cleaning (B): Cleanliness is one of the basics of housekeeping. Removes contaminants within a radius of 20 meters. However, general cleaning takes a lot of work, so only do it asionally. Active skill. (Current: Skill avable)>


    Heena’s head began to spin.


    ‘It removes contaminants within a 20 meter radius…?’


    Now, Heena has shed her foolish newbie attitude. This means that it is past time to ept sentences as they are.


    The more flexible the skill description was, the more convenient it was to use.


    ‘Hmm… here, contaminants don’t necessarily mean things like dust or trash. ‘Maybe it’s something I think is dirty or unnecessary to ept?’


    It urred to me that perhaps that could include monsters as well.


    ‘Pest extermination isn’t necessarily a skill that only works on bugs, right? Because it can be cast on harmful enemies such as pests.’


    Then, the effect of this ‘cleaning’ skill can be roughly interpreted as follows.


    ‘I guess this means that all enemies within a 20 meter radius can be eliminated at once.’


    This was a fairly deceptive skill even for Heena, who did not have a developedbat sense.


    Isn’t this an absolutely advantageous ability in a one-versus-many battle situation?


    ‘So it looks like there is a limit to the number of times or a time limit.’


    Looking at thest sentence, it didn’t seem like it was a skill that could be used without limit. I’ve never used it yet, so I don’t know its limitations.


    ‘Should I try it now?’


    Heena’s curiosity suddenly grew stronger. It was a thought that I would never have thought of normally.


    However, the excitement of having just acquired a new skill blinded Heena, a safety freak.


    Moreover, Kang Jin-hyeon isfortably controlling the battle. Even if something went wrong, it didn’t seem like it would be a big deal.


    Kang Jin-hyeon, who must have heard Heena’s muttering, asked as he struck down dozens of monsters at once.


    “Did you get a new skill?”


    “yes. It’s a skill called ‘cleaning’ and it looks like it can be used in battle as well. So, by the way… can I try it?”


    “You mean here?”


    “yes.”


    Kang Jin-hyeon seemed to think about it for a moment, but then nodded.


    “great. “It would be a good experience to immediately apply the skills to abat situation like this.”


    It was time to whisper ande to a conclusion.


    -Aaaaeaaaaaa!


    There was a loud vibration that made my eardrums tingle. It sounded like a siren. It was a very annoying sound.


    “What is this sound?”


    It felt strangely familiar. At the same time, I felt annoyed, bordering on murderous intent.


    ‘What on earth?’


    Heena was not used to such strong emotions. Hahaha, I took a deep breath and tried to calm my pounding heart.


    “There it is. It seems to be a boss monster. “You finally showed up.”


    Kang Jin-hyeon stepped on the bug’s head, jumped up, and pointed to a certain ce.


    Numerous flying insects were flying around something.


    The inside was obscured by the afterimages of insects, so it was hard to see, but the monster in the center was so huge that Heena was able to guess what it was.


    “…Giant mosquito?”


    -Aaaaaaaan! Ahhh! Ah ah ah ah ah ah!


    The giant mosquito… no, the boss monster pped its wings noisily as if answering Heena’s question.


    It swung the spout on its snout around as if it wanted to suck the blood of humans right now.


    Rather than feeling disgusting, that sight… made Heena feel indignant.


    ‘Mosquito… You’re such a damn bug!’


    Mosquitoes were the main enemy of humans.


    I was reminded of the sleepless nights gued by mosquitoes every summer.


    The newspaper in my hand trembled.


    A destructive desire arose to swat mosquitoes right away.


    Heena finally made up her mind on who and how to use her new skill.


    “Jinhyeon, I will attack first.”


    “yes. “I will provide cover.”


    Kang Jin-hyeon did not stop Hee-na.


    Since it was only a D-level boss, he could handle it even if Heena’s attack failed.


    Heena also believed in him and went on the offensive with enthusiasm.


    -Aaaaaaaan! Weeeeeee!


    Perhaps sensing Heena’s murderous gaze, the giant mosquito began pping its wings furiously.


    The speed of the flying insects circling around became faster and faster, so much so that they almost looked like gray clouds.


    -Ugh!


    The air rang with the sound of insects pping their wings.


    Heena instinctively realized it.


    ‘Now we’re going to attack!’


    The fact that monsters will attack you!


    At the same time, Heena waved the newspaper around loudly.


    “Mosquitoes! Stay alive! Worth it! doesn’t exist!”


    It was a cry made with 50,000% sincerity.


    A sharp wind blew out from the newspaper. No, it was sharp, but at the same time refreshing.


    Paaaaat!


    There were ripples in the air centered around Heena. The air vibrated as if it was tearing the surroundings apart. It was a wave so powerful that it was hard to believe it came from a small hand.


    The ‘cleaning’ skill instantly spread through the air and turned all the monsters charging towards Heena into powder.


    Passut ssssss!


    No, that power annihted everything within a 20 meter radius without even leaving a trace of dust.


    Even the giant mosquito, the boss monster of this dungeon!


    -Aaaaeae…!


    A mosquito the size of a house disappeared in the air with the faint sound of its wings pping. Only a fist-sized jewel remained where the mosquito had been, falling to the ground. It was the boss monster’s magic stone.


    “Wow…”


    Heena opened her mouth wide at the incredible sight her fingertips had created.


    ‘Isn’t this a fraud skill?’


    After reading the skill description, I tried using it just in case.


    However, it is true that there were doubts about how powerful it would be, even though it is only a housekeeper’s skill.


    This scene also left a significant impression on Kang Jin-hyeon. He was very surprised.


    “great. This is a skillparable to some advancedbat magic abilities. Even the monster’s corpse waspletely destroyed… Heena?”


    However, Hee-na could not listen to Kang Jin-hyeon’s praise until the end.


    ‘Ah… I’m tired. I feelpletely drained of energy. I’m hungry… I’m hungry.’


    This is because I felt extremely tired, as if it was an aftereffect of the ‘cleaning’ skill.


    “Jinhyeon Ji, I’m hungry…”


    With thosest words, Heena fell asleep.


    “Ugh… oh my.”


    My mouth felt strangely sour. Heena opened her eyes with a groan.


    “uh! Is it Heena? “Are you awake?”


    “Heena!”


    As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw familiar faces.


    One side was my brother’s disgusting face, and the other side was the handsome Kang Jin-hyeon’s face.


    The difference in beauty level was significant, but they were both identical in that they were both filled with worry.


    “What happened? “Why am I lying down?”


    Heena refused the two men’s advice to lie down a little longer and got up and looked around.


    It was a familiar yet unfamiliar ce. It was an empty ‘home sweet home’ without any furniture.


    “I want to be alone, so everyone get out.”


    In the distance, a ck-shelled snail was pondering its loneliness in a cynical tone.


    Only then did the memoriese together, step by step, and I remembered where this ce was.


    “It’s Mirror Dungeon’s ‘Home Sweet Home.’ It’s strange… I went with Jinhyeon to kill the boss monster, so why are you lying here…?”


    As I muttered to myself, the situation just before came back to me, step by step.


    ‘Oh right. Ipleted a quest, gained a skill… and used it to kill a boss monster, right? It was huge.’


    Finally, Heenapletely remembered that she fainted from exhaustion after using a skill.


    ‘Did I miss something in the exnation?’


    Heena quickly opened the skill window.


    <General cleaning (B): Cleanliness is one of the basics of housekeeping. Removes contaminants within a radius of 20 meters. However, general cleaning takes a lot of work, so only do it asionally. Active skill. (Current: Skill cannot be used)>


    The current status has changed to ‘Skill cannot be used’.


    ‘The exnation that ‘cleaning requires a lot of work, so only asionally…’ seems to have meant that it cannot be used often because it consumes a lot of ability points.’


    When I thought about the power of the skill, I fully understood why I fainted.


    ‘Actually, it’s a bad bnce patch that allows something this great to be used multiple times in a row.’
