Episode 321
Ep. 321
Normally at my apartment, I simply separate whites from colors and run the washing machine.
But Yunjung operated on an entirely different level.
She meticulously sorted undergarments, towels, and outerwear, then further divided them into jeans, frilly items, knitwear, and more.
Watching laundry fly through the air before my eyes, I couldn’t help but wonder what on earth was happening.
‘I, I didn’t ask her to go this far.’
She had simply insisted I give her something to do, so I assigned her the household chores that had been piling up.
Initially, I thought I might have to send her back since she couldn’t even manage basic sorting, but suddenly Yunjung was attacking my laundry room as if she intended to open a dry cleaning business.
She loaded the easiest items into the washing machine, then began hand-washing the rest as if time itself was precious.
“No, you really don’t need to go to such trouble….”
“Don’t be ridiculous! Laundry is the foundation of fashion. Poorly washed clothes are an insult to the garment itself!”
“Ah, yes….”
I tried to protest, but once Yunjung’s passion ignited, there was no stopping her.
Minjeong and Donghoo had also come to the laundry room and were watching the spectacle unfold.
“My goodness, would you look at that.”
“We had something like that in our house?”
They only knew about washing machines, hand-washing, and dry cleaners when it came to laundry.
Yet hidden throughout their laundry room were all manner of advanced features!
Mesmerized by watching Yunjung work, I suddenly snapped to attention only to find her already pressing buttons on the wall and pulling out a drying machine to process the clothes.
“How did you even know something like that was there?”
“The crack in the wall is clearly artificial. This is basic knowledge you should have.”
‘I didn’t know.’
I couldn’t bring myself to say such a thing.
If a monster had been hiding there, I would have spotted it immediately, but mechanical devices were another matter entirely.
Minjeong and Donghoo felt the same way.
In any case, the mountain of laundry that had accumulated was finished.
Clap clap clap——
Minjeong, Donghoo, and I couldn’t help but give her a standing ovation for such impressive work, yet Yunjung spoke with unmistakable regret.
“If we had more time, I would have preferred to dry them in the sunlight, but I had no choice but to use the dryer.”
“No, no, it’s fine, miss. That’s what it’s there for.”
“Right, right, the electricity bill won’t even show up anyway.”
Minjeong and Donghoo spoke in exasperated tones, as if they’d given up entirely.
Yunjung smiled brightly and called out to me.
“Is there anything else you’d like me to do?”
“Pardon?”
“Housework is never-ending, so if you’re going to ask, have me do it all.”
Light radiated from Yunjung’s face as she spoke.
If she were to yield, she would do so completely!
Ilgyeok had intended to completely shatter her pride, but Yunjung was more than capable of enduring that much.
Rather, showing that I don’t crumble here will earn me even greater trust.
“No, no. Just get some good rest today and we’ll do it again tomorrow.”
“That’s right. You worked hard in the garden today too.”
Minjeong and Donghoo waved their hands dismissively, asking why she would go to such lengths.
Just watching her do laundry was enough to know she was such a capable worker that she could stay at the house for a month without issue.
Even if she were a Black Agent sent to recruit Ihyeon’s son, she hadn’t come here to attack outright.
When you thought about it, wasn’t she just a poor young woman of similar age to his son, coming from a distant foreign land with no family?
The characteristic sensitivity of the warm-hearted Minjeong and Donghoo activated without fail toward Yunjung as well.
However, Yunjung was not the type to stop easily once she got going.
Without Ihyeon even asking, she began wandering through every corner of the house, finding chores to do.
“I should clean again too.”
“No, the robot vacuum takes care of all that…”
“No matter how good a robot vacuum is, it can’t match a person! Where are all the cleaning supplies?”
“Um, over there…”
Cleaning.
“There’s quite a pile of dishes to wash.”
“We can do that tomorrow morning… and we have a dishwasher anyway.”
“Neglected dishes and food scraps cause foul odors and pest infestations!”
Dishwashing.
“Who tied the plant supports like this?”
“That was Ihyeon’s father…”
“You said it was fine to tie them that way.”
“Plants can’t grow properly like this! And who dug the furrows like that?”
“That was Ihyeon’s mother…”
“You said that level would be sufficient.”
She even extended her efforts to the farming outside the house.
Being an excellent Hunter to begin with, she lifted and moved heavy items effortlessly, working with lightning speed.
Everywhere Yunjung’s hands touched underwent a complete transformation, making it impossible to imagine its previous state.
Considering that Ihyeon’s apartment had been managed reasonably well to begin with, it was truly remarkable.
“Phew, I’ve put out the urgent fires now.”
Yunjung, who had finished all the work in an instant, spoke while wiping away a bead of sweat from her forehead.
Clap clap clap clap clap clap clap———
Then Ihyeon, Minjeong, and Donghoo, who had watched the entire process, along with Jia and the Knights, all gave her enthusiastic applause.
“You’re truly amazing.”
“Wow! Agent, that was incredible!”
“You seem good at farming too. Could you help us with our plants as well?”
“Yikes! I don’t want to!”
“…You don’t need to be that firm about it.”
It seemed Yunjung had developed quite a trauma regarding the Knights’ plants.
In any case, Minjeong poked Ihyeon in the ribs and spoke.
“Do all these Black Agents excel at everything they do?”
“I’m not entirely sure either….”
I wasn’t familiar with that world either, so I couldn’t know for certain.
However, Yunjung had undertaken countless missions throughout her career, performing just as many different roles.
Since each assignment came with its own designated cover, she had to accumulate equally diverse experience.
Moreover, Yunjung was no ordinary agent—she was a specialist who poured her heart into every mission entrusted to her.
Because of this, she could skillfully handle virtually any mundane task without hesitation.
Furthermore, as she went about handling these chores, Yunjung found herself oddly absorbed in the work.
The quiet comfort of daily life that she had forgotten while operating ceaselessly in the shadows of the world’s darkness.
She was rediscovering just how precious such moments truly were.
“If there’s anything else you’d like me to do….”
“Goodness, that’s enough! Go inside and get some rest, quickly!”
“Alright, we can do more tomorrow if needed! Oh, didn’t you say someone moved in nearby? Would you like to go there and rest comfortably?”
“Ah, no, actually I’m… I’m afraid to go back out through that garden…. It’s nighttime too.”
‘What on earth happened in that garden? And what kind of Black Agent is afraid of the dark?’
Minjeong and Donghoo practically shoved Yunjung, who was still reluctant and swallowing hard, into the house.
Only then did my apartment, which had been in such an uproar, finally settle into a calmer atmosphere.
“Phew, things got chaotic right after clearing the tower, didn’t they?”
“Yes, Master.”
I returned to the annex with Jia.
Well, things seemed to have worked out reasonably well.
‘Still, I never expected an American intelligence operative to infiltrate my home like this….’
Yunjung’s appearance was not something to be dismissed so easily.
After all, it meant that the United States had sent personnel from a foreign nation to obtain my classified information and attempt to recruit me.
Even if Yunjung’s personal disposition could be handled later, Korea and the United States governments might face turbulent times ahead.
“She claims to have surrendered in words, but we can’t let our guard down yet. Though today must have been exhausting, have the Knights keep a close watch on her movements.”
“Of course, Master. I stand ready to carry out your orders at any time.”
Jia bowed her head and headed back outside to position the Knights.
With Jia and the Knights standing guard, I could rest easier.
From what I could see, their abilities had grown to the point where they could easily subdue hunters in the 80s floors.
However, there was one thing I hadn’t anticipated.
Yunjung, who had been shown to the guest room by Minjeong and Donghoo,
Zzzzz—
The moment her head touched the pillow, she drifted off to dreamland before anyone could stop her.
The long flight from America to Korea, the absurd ordeal she’d endured in the garden, and the stress of having her identity exposed to Ilgyeok without a chance to resist—all of it had taken its toll on her.
“It could be a deception. Traitors are skilled at misdirection, so don’t be careless. Keep watch throughout the night without any gaps.”
“Yes, Captain.”
“Snnnnooooore—— Pfffffff….”
“But she really does seem exhausted, doesn’t she? If this is a deception, we might have to pretend to fall for it.”
“….”
In fact, Jia thought the same way, but regardless, Ihyeon’s orders were orders.
Yunjung found herself under the Knights’ meticulous surveillance without even realizing it.
“Mmm… I slept well.”
She simply woke up refreshed this morning.
A truly excellent informant understood that danger could strike anywhere at any time, so getting proper rest in a safe place was an important virtue.

Boom boom— tap—!
Wherever evil may hide~~ we’ll vanquish it~ Magical Girl Crylong, Cryling~~ Almond!
“Phew, that was great. This season’s ending theme ‘The Dawn Moonlight Banquet Where Magical Girl Crylong Crylong’s Power Defeats the Villains’ is truly the best.”
Suyeon leisurely finished her favorite hobby for the day—watching anime.
Now Magical Girl… whatever Almond Season 25 was approaching its climax.
Yesterday she was too busy with dungeon raids to catch the live broadcast, so she settled for watching the recorded version today.
Seasons 1 through 10 were the Earth arc, seasons 11 through 20 were the space arc, and from season 21 onwards was the otherworld arc, and finally it was revealed that the fallen Margrave Toshua of the otherworld was the mastermind… anyway.
‘I decided to take a break from raiding today, so maybe I should stop by my brother’s place for once.’
Today happened to have no scheduled raids.
Yesterday she had gone out to support a local guild in clearing a B-rank Instance Tower in the provinces.
The Management Bureau had pleaded with her to rest properly after such days, and threatened that if she entered the Main Tower today, they would personally cut her home internet for three days.
But really, wasn’t cutting the internet a bit too much?
Suyeon had every reason to complain, but since the Management Bureau hadn’t overworked her—quite the opposite, in fact—she had no grounds to protest.
Yesterday, Ihyeon had even suddenly cleared an A-rank Instance Tower.
When she sent him a quick message earlier, he said he had some matters to attend to and was staying home instead of entering a tower, so she thought she’d drop by to see his face.
Actually, even without Ihyeon, Suyeon visited often enough to have become quite close with Minjeong.
After making simple preparations, Suyeon headed over to the neighboring house.
Though the garden was quite spacious, it was nothing for someone with Suyeon’s speed to cross.
“My brother’s garden is so beautiful today too. The Knights must be taking really good care of it.”
Suyeon nodded contentedly as she passed through the neatly trimmed rectangular hedge tree path.
Before long, the main house and annex came into view, and as always, she could see the Knights, Minjeong, and Donghoo working.
Beside them, Ihyeon and Jia were also helping out with various tasks.
“I’m here!”
“Oh my, Suyeon’s here?”
As Suyeon waved her hand with a bright smile, Minjeong and Donghoo heard her and stood up to greet her warmly.
“Yes, I was wondering if we could have lunch together.”
“Well then~ you came at just the right time.”
Minjeong nodded casually.
Normally, Minjeong and Donghoo would eat alone, so Suyeon’s visits like this were always welcome.
Of course, today there were many more people to join them.
“How have you been, brother?”
“Good, what were you up to?”
“Almond Season 25, Episode 38….”
“Yeah, yeah.”
Since Ihyeon had already visited Suyeon’s house once before, it wasn’t particularly surprising to him.
But then.
“Lunch is ready. Come inside and eat.”
“???”
A woman in a designer training outfit emerged from the main house and began gathering everyone together.
She possessed such a dazzling and beautiful appearance that even Suyeon’s eyes were drawn to her.
Most troubling of all was the reaction of the people who heard her words.
“Is it already lunchtime?”
“I don’t think breakfast has even settled yet.”
“Still, since Yunjung prepared it, we should eat. Suyeon, let’s head in quickly.”
Minjeong and Donghoo entered the main house as if they’d been waiting for this.
“Right, Suyeon. The timing works out perfectly.”
Ihyeon also followed the two of them inside without much resistance, saying this to Suyeon.
“….”
Jia, who was always quiet, had already gone in.
Suyeon hurriedly called out to Ihyeon and asked.
“Who, who is she?”
Ihyeon paused at the entrance, pondered for a moment, then answered.
“Well… circumstances came up, so it’s more like a guest who’s staying at the house for a while.”
“A guest? A relative?”
“No, that’s not it.”
“Then a friend?”
“That’s not it either.”
“Then?”
“If I had to describe it… a lodger?”
“???”
