How to Live as an Illegal Healer - Chapter 247
247. End of Accompaniment
“You’re quitting your job as a bounty hunter now?”
“yes. I got tired of it and I want to concentrate on being a healer.”
“It’s good! Because you are a healer, not a hunter!”
After leaving Pastor Lewis’ mansion, Kang Seung-hyeon and Kim Ho-jeong roamed the Azul continent like ordinary adventurers.
“This time, I played the roulette wheel and picked out a new skill.”
“Oh, what skill is it?”
“….”
“You don’t have to show it, so just say it!”
In the meantime, Kang Seung-hyun acquired additional useful skills such as [Cure Judgment] and [Blood Sampling].
Now, with just a few tools, I think I can start a full-fledged yamae healer life.
“But is there a patient who wants to be treated by a healer who doesn’t even have a healer badge?”
“So, first of all, I’m going to target the common people who are hard to get treatment.”
“Oh something nice! Normal healers don’t pay, so commoners don’t even pay attention!”
“Adventurers, nobles, and commoners have the same points.”
“Is it because of the points?”
Now, there is no reason to obsess over making boring money to buy a scroll, and you can enjoy your hobby using your newly acquired skills.
“I did bounty hunting for money in the first place, killing people is not my taste.”
“Well then. I don’t mind killing people, no matter how bad they are.”
“Because I like insulting rather than killing.”
“huh?”
“It’s thrilling to imagine that the guys I ignored because they didn’t know how to heal are begging me to save them.”
“Uh huh… yes.”
Originally, I walked alone with my mouth shut, but now I walk while chatting with a colleague.
‘That’s not bad.’
How long has it been since I lived a life of chasing wanted criminals every day when I woke up and then chatting leisurely like this?
For Kang Seung-hyun, this leisurely moment wasn’t too bad.
“Ah, when I get to the village later… Wow!”
Of course, that composure was destroyed in less than a second. Kim Ho-jung, who was walking blindly, fell into a trap.
Fu-wook!
That, of course, was a trap set up for monsters.
“Are you okay?”
“…”
“Oh, he died instantly.”
While traveling together like this, for some reason, Kim Ho-jeong often fell into traps or was attacked by monsters, and there were also times when he died unluckily.
Parbat!
“%@■-▥’-&)!!!!!!!”
Of course, it was normal for Kim Ho-jung, who died right after that, to be resurrected as a black beast and go wild, but
“So, who wants to walk blindly?”
“■▶$#$&*!!!!”
“It’s your fault this time!”
“§※#@%$!!!!!”
Fuck!
puck!
Whenever that happened, Kang Seung-hyun suppressed it with force.
At first, they hit each other with the momentum to kill each other, but after repeating this about 3 times, they understood it even if it was roughly spoken.
“{Did I die again?}”
“{It happens often.}” “
{Sorry…. I will have to sleep on the street today because of me.}” “
{Let’s make it look like we’re going to sleep outside.}” “
{Yes, that’s right. … Sleeping outdoors.}”
Then, when the black beast came to its senses, it wandered around the forest and mountains until its transformation was released.
“{Well, it’s a nice day today, so it’s okay to go to bed outside.}” “
{Then I’ll pick up branches.}” “
{Give me some water as well.}”
“{Okay!}”
If it was a normal day, I’d be alone in the grass. Even the black beast, which must have cried and cried, got motivated and searched the forest at this time, saying,
“{Everything is good, but the food is a problem. As expected, we’ll hire a cook.}”
“{Neither I nor Sensei are poor at cooking.}” “{
No matter how good Mr. Kim Ho-jeong cooks, I don’t want to eat food made with his paws.}” “{Because
this is with his hands?}”
Kang Seung-hyun was basically repeating these things, such as preparing for camp or dealing with monsters around him.
‘It’s not bad anyway.’
The companionship of the two, which seemed to continue like that, ends when they arrive at a small village on the third month after leaving Skana Mountain.
– “Buy and live! There’s a light over there!”
“That looks like Nigel Village.”
“Phew, I don’t have to worry about being homeless today.”
After leaving the forest and mountains as usual, the two entered the village with very tired faces. This is because the roads around here are rough and there are no stables, so they suffered for several days.
“But I don’t know if there are any vacant rooms.”
“I don’t think it’s crowded when people see it.”
It was nice to be in town, but there were too many people besides the two of us wanting to stay, so we couldn’t find a room to stay.
“Today I’m going to sleep at the Adventurer’s Guild.”
“Let’s go quickly. If we can’t find a room, we have to sleep in a tent on the street.”
Kang Seung-hyeon and Kim Ho-jeong grumbled lightly and headed to the Adventurer’s Guild.
“Then, the damn lodging request…”
“Huh? uh?”
The moment Kim Ho-jeong entered the Adventurer’s Guild, a woman came running to him with a surprised face.
“Ki Ho-jeong Kim! You’re Kim Ho-jeong, right?”
“Tayurel?”
She was Tayurel, a party member Kim Ho-jeong had been looking for, a former colleague who had parted ways in Skana Mountain.
“You are safe!”
“You are!”
“The Adventurers Guild was true! Honestly, I thought I was the only one who survived after everyone died…”
“I thought I was the only one who survived!”
The two shed tears.
I think this is why people say that they play with each other.
“I’m glad even Kim Ho-jung is alive!”
“I’m glad Tayurell is alive too!”
“I really missed you! If it wasn’t for the debt, I would have visited him sooner…”
He said that he wanted to go find Kim Ho-jung as soon as he opened his eyes, but he said that he couldn’t leave because of the money.
“How are you doing now? Do you have any colleagues?”
“Four people including me!”
“Four people? Where did you meet?”
“They’re the kids I met while playing the role of adventurers, but they’re really nice and nice! Everyone was very curious about Kim Ho-jung!”
Tayurel sniffled and pointed behind her.
The three ordinary-looking adventurers watched the reunion of the two, wiping their tears as well.
“Thank you so much, Mr. Kang! Thanks to you, I was able to come this far safely.”
Kim Ho-jung took off his glasses and wiped away his tears.
“If Sensei hadn’t accompanied me, I would never have met Tayurell again…”
“Oh, I did.”
It was only then that Kang Seung-hyun remembered.
‘I’ve been so used to it that I’ve forgotten about it.’
He is temporarily accompanied by Kim Ho-jung, and the period of companionship is ‘until he meets his lost colleague’.
“Then, the temporary companionship is now over.”
“uh? Uh… that’s right.”
As promised, since I took Kim Ho-jung to my ex-colleague, there is no reason for the two of them to go together anymore.
‘It would be nice if Mr. Kang joined our party too. But the teacher likes to go alone, so he’ll refuse.’
Kim Ho-jeong was sad about breaking up with Kang Seung-hyeon, but he thought that there was no way a person who would be bothered by a two-person party could join a five-person party.
‘I’d like to have a 3-day, 2-night farewell party, but… Mr. Kang’s personality makes me want to leave as soon as possible at a time like this!’
Putting aside his regret, Kim Ho-jung smiled brightly and held out his hand.
“Thank you so much, sir! I don’t know if I’ll be able to repay this favor, but I’ll buy food first when I return to Earth!”
‘Am I not planning to live forever?’
Kang Seung-hyeon smiled as if he was dumbfounded and took out a sword from his inventory.
“Take it.”
“Huh? Are you giving this to me?”
“I blew a knife before.”
“Wasn’t that just a companion?”
“Then let’s take it as a parting gift.”
“I’ll write really well! How can I use this because it’s a waste!”
Kim Ho-jung shed tears of emotion as if he had never thought that he would receive a weapon.
For your reference, the knife that was presented at this time was said to have been strengthened and broken a month later.
“Goodbye, then.”
“See you again! You’re a healer, so don’t worry, but take care of yourself!”
“It’s Kim Ho-jeong.”
And just like the day he first landed on the Azul continent, he shouted to take care of himself and left with his new colleagues.
-‘Hmm…. It’s a bit disappointing.’
Left alone, Seunghyun Kang stood still.
No matter what, it was only natural that he was sad to part with him as he was the first colleague he had ever acknowledged.
It was because I hadn’t even thought that they would break up so suddenly as I forgot that it was a temporary companion in the first place.
‘If I go after him now and propose a formal party, Kim Ho-jung’s personality will cut the line and join me.’
You have three colleagues, but Mr. Kang is alone, so he must be lonely! The figure of Kim Ho-jung, who said goodbye to Tayurel and spread tears, was drawn in front of my eyes.
‘But it’s better not to catch someone who leaves.’
It’s a pity to break up, but he prefers to coolly let go and promise the next one rather than holding on to the person leaving.
So Kang Seung-hyeon did not catch Kim Ho-jung.
‘I’m not a person who dies easily, so I’m sure we’ll meet again someday.’
This is the second meeting, so there will be a third meeting as well. Kang Seung-hyun thought so and left.
‘By the way, we’ve only been together for three months, but it feels empty to go alone.’
To sum up my feelings right now, it feels like the radio that I’ve been talking about all day suddenly disappeared.
With time, I will get used to this sense of emptiness again, but I don’t want to do that now.
‘It wasn’t that bad to go out with a colleague… Now I’m looking for a new colleague.’
When Kang Seung-hyun later met Kim Ho-jung again, he wondered how he would react if he found out that he organized a party with his colleagues.
‘Well, there won’t be another person like Kim Ho-jung.’
This is the first year after falling on the Azul continent.
This is a story from about 2 years ago.
-“{…This is the end of the story.}”
And again inside the current Hind Village tent.
Kang Seung-hyun finished the story after a long reminiscence of the past.
“{This is the reason I went out with Kim Ho-jung. Are you curious now?}”
“{Too long!}”
Alec screamed at the same time.
“{I was told to elaborate.}”
“{I didn’t know it would take this long!}” “
{It’s only been 4 hours.}” “
{4 hours? It feels like two months have passed, right?}” “
{I guess it’s because of my mood.}”
Alec said nonsense, saying that it was four hours, like two months, and that the flashback was longer than his own, but Kang Seung-hyun didn’t care at all and drank in his glass. Followed.
