How to Live as an Illegal Healer - Chapter 336

348. Overlap

Kang Seung-hyun and Lee Ji-ah returned to their assigned lodgings.

“Welcome Mr. Kang!”

When the two returned, Kim Ho-jung, who was sitting on the sofa, jumped up and greeted them.

“great job!”

“great job!”

“great job!”

It’s a bonus that Lee Ji-ah’s, who was enjoying a board game on the table in front of the sofa, is talking at the same time.

“I’m tired. Then log out here.”

match!

Of course, the person who entered with Kang Seung-hyun also clapped their hands lightly.

Soon, the clone dissipated like smoke and returned to another clone.

“That is really convenient.”

“Eheng’s clone body can use clone skills, which is the greatest advantage.”

Jiah Lee, one of Jiah Lee’s at the table, answered with a proud face.

“Well, since the clone’s maximum health and magic stats are 50% of the main body’s, if the clone continues to use clone skills, weaker ones will come out.”

“Still, if I retrieve the clone, the remaining magic power will come into my magic box.”

mate mate mate.

The rest of the clones who were playing the board game with those words canceled their skill summons.

As before, the clone body dispersed like smoke and returned to Lee Ji-ah A.

“Magic charge complete!”

“Wouldn’t it be better to just drink a magic potion?”

“There will be times in life when magic potions run out. It’s not even a penny or two.”

It is impossible to restore the clone body naturally, but it is possible to fill the lost magic power with potions or items.

So, in preparation for an emergency, Ji-ah Lee places her alter ego in a good place to recover magic power and uses it for recovery.

“For example, if you find a magical fountain in a dungeon, keep drinking until the fountain runs out and keep making clones to store it.”

‘I’m running behind in combat power, but I’m using my alter ego skills to the fullest.’

“Or leave it in the mountains and diligently dig and eat it when you find a field of magic grass.”

“It’s not some kind of survival survival game.”

Lee Ji-ah spoke very proudly.

“Make a lot of alter egos, spread them all over the place, and collect them when your mana is full! I was able to save a lot on potions this way.”

“okay.”

Of course, Kang Seung-hyeon felt Lee Ji-ah’s pride as a human being who had no reason to buy expensive magic potions.

“Well, when you’re in a hurry, it’s quicker to open a potion shop with your alter ego.”

“Spontaneous Confession of Crime.”

“Of course it means paying money and sweeping it away! Why do you think you’re stealing?”

Lee Ji-ah shouted as if she was dumbfounded, but

“So you didn’t steal it?”

“hmm.”

“never?”

“Actually, it’s not a store, but I’ve robbed the pockets of unlucky guys.”

“Look.”

According to common sense, a human with the ‘alone self’ skill wouldn’t commit a crime.

The only people who can do that are those who keep the signal well while playing GTA.

“There are many people who commit crimes with normal skills, but there’s no way they can live a normal life with their alter ego skills.”

“Still, I only acted as a rogue.”

Lee Ji-ah grumbled and took out her alter egos and continued the board game.

‘Hmm, since I’m listening to Lee Ji-ah’s story, something…’

Somehow, the situation of the Ropiermus family overlaps.

It seems that mana cannot be recovered naturally, but unlike Lee Ji-ah’s alter ego, who recovers through legal means as much as possible, such as dungeons or wild magic grass, the Rophemus family chose to live as parasites in the Mage Tower.

‘I think I know the reason why Lophemus are annoyed.’

If Lophemus had invested more in the Mage Tower or worked hard to train wizards in exchange for magic support, that would have been the case.

However, instead of investing in a game that would not be enough even if they lay down on the mage tower, they pretended to be owners and persecuted ordinary wizards who provided magic to them.

‘They do the same thing as divine beings.’

It was because the gods were also a tribe that looked down on humans rather than thanking them for living on human faith.

If you think about the bad relationship between the wizards and the priests, it’s apt to say that the poles are connected.

“Hey, that skill looks really comfortable.”

“Right? Does it look comfortable?”

“Yep! For example, when I vacuum, I send my alter ego to wash the dishes and take out the trash…”

Kim Ho-jeong, who brought something to drink from the kitchen, put the teacup down on the table with a look of envy.

“So I also tried to spin the roulette to get my alter ego skill, but it didn’t come out.”

“It’s a skill that doesn’t fit Kim Ho-jung’s personality, so it won’t come out.”

“huh? why?”

Kang Seung-hyun sat down on the sofa and drank the stamina potion from the glass.

“I heard from a guy who researches skills, but he classifies cases in which dimension movers acquire clone skills into three main categories.”

“Three?”

“The first is a patient with dissociative identity disorder.”

“Eh? what?”

“…A person with a dual or multiple personality.”

“Oh you know that.”

Among the status window achievements, it is said that there are achievements related to personality change that are usually unbreakable.

The reward for that achievement is the alter ego skill, so patients with multiple personalities can get it unconditionally.

“Is this type acquiring an alter ego skill in the form of summoning a different personality? I bet.”

Then, it is said that there were times when other personalities became independent as separate bodies, but that is not Kang Seung-hyun’s business.

“Then I won’t get it.”

“Maybe it’s possible if you try and divide your personality like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.”

“I hate poetry! You die in the end!”

The second case is a case of acting another self for a purpose, such as a con artist or an actor.

“Among the dimension movers, there are also aspiring actors or those who have been scammed and gone to the dark room.”

This is not a 100% chance like the first case, but you have to spin the roulette to get it.

It is true that there is a high probability of getting it.

“But when it comes to acting, Cheolhyun often does it too, right? I don’t think I have any clone skills.”

Kim Ho-jung glanced at Alec.

Alec was sitting in the corner of the wall, his face as if everything had been burned to white.

“Why is Alec doing that again?”

“That was before…”

As Kim Ho-jung was about to answer, Alec opened his mouth first.

“Because I won a poker match where I risked my life against the enemy who drove my lover to death, but after taking revenge, I realize that there is no reason to live anymore, and I am wandering the streets in a sudden sense of futility.”

“Were you still playing with that concept?”

“To think that the man I hated, thinking of him as my enemy, was actually the driving force that made me live…”

Kang Seung-hyun thought as he looked at Alec muttering to himself in the corner.

‘If people play poker for hours without sleep, they can’t distinguish between reality and delusion like that.’

If you don’t want to be that kind of person, get at least 7 hours of sleep.

“Continuing the story I was talking about earlier, the reason why that person can’t pick out alter ego skills isn’t because he’s an actor, it’s just because he’s a concept freak.”

“I see….”

If I spread the alter ego skills to the concept monsters, all the dimension movers would have gone around doing an alter ego show.

“And the third case is lazy people who don’t want to clean or tidy up because they’re lazy, so they stretch out and leave it to others.”

In other words, Lee Ji-ah is a typical third case type.

“When I was living in Korea, there was a time when I ate only one meal a day because I was too lazy to wash the dishes.”

“You are proud.”

“Here, the alter ego makes it, so I eat three full meals.”

In fact, as a result of Lee Ji-ah summoning and working on her alter ego even in trivial matters, everything else was sloppy, but her alter ego skill was a person who reached the level of a master of alter ego, equivalent to a top-notch dimension mover.

“The bottom line is that it is difficult for a tank type like Kim Ho-jeong to take the lead and not run away to protect others, to acquire alter ego skills.”

“It’s a pity…. It would be easier to tank if you had an alter ego skill.”

“By the way, I’m the type who likes to do things on my own, so they say it’s hard to get.”

Of course, he had the confidence to use it to the limit if he gave it to him, but he was Kang Seung-hyun, who had no problems living without it.

“Well, let’s finish the story here… Let’s move on to the story of the Lophemus family.”

“Oh yes. The family is cursed, and there is a secret passage to the center of magic in the Southwest Building?”

“yes. It was unexpected information.”

Here’s what I’ve learned from this job:

– The Lophemus family was cursed to die when their magic power slowly decreased to zero.

-In the Southwest Building of the Magic Tower, there is a subspace portal that leads to the center of magic created by the Lophemus family.

The reason why Lophemus took possession of the Golden Mage Tower was because of these two secrets they were hiding.

“It’s a family that has a short lifespan because of the curse of dying when their magic power is depleted, but that’s why they’ve produced a lot of outstanding wizards.”

Due to the nature of the curse, there is a high probability that a person with a lot of magical power will inherit the generation, so it is only natural that the descendants will also be born with abundant magical power.

‘It’s so ironic.’

Looking at the curse itself, there is no worst curse for a wizard, but a funny situation unfolded that they became a prestigious wizard family because of that curse.

“Of course, the reason why this is possible is because the Lophemus family siphoned off the magic tower to their heart’s content.”

Lee Ji-ah A muttered as she threw the dice.

No matter how much magical power you create, it will be meaningless if that person runs out of magic power and dies before giving birth to offspring.

“Now the remaining mystery is… the reason why the Southwest Building is now closed using the fire as an excuse, and why Doradel is ignoring the curse and living a long life alone. Is it like this?”

Going to the center of magic won’t solve all the mysteries, but at least you’ll get at least one piece of information that will open Doradel’s mouth.

“I got the entry permit, and everyone simply prepares and sets off.”

-Kang Seung-hyun and his party left the dorm after finishing their preparations.

“What happened?”

“I don’t know!”

“You don’t know? Can’t you see the security barrier magic circle has been destroyed?”

“Even the list scroll is gone!”

As I passed by the medicine room, I heard the loud voices of wizards.

“Daily Lofiarmus, are you sure it’s yours?”

“It’s been that way since I came!”

“Dail! Then what are you in the apothecary room for?”

“This… I came to make medicine for my son who lost his wrist! Are you dissatisfied?”

Looking closely, the submasters and executives were interrogating Dail.

“Oh, didn’t you come here to get rid of the roster scroll?”

“My…why me?”

“For example, was there information that others shouldn’t see?”

“Could it be that the culprit who attacked Doradel…?”

“How did I break that thing and get rid of the scroll? You guys do it if you can!”

While Da-il, who was caught by the wizards like this, tries his best to get it off.

“You look busy. I don’t think they’ll even notice us.”

“Good. We can investigate now.”

Kang Seung-hyeon and his party leisurely headed toward the Southwest Hall.

“…!”

At that time, Da-il and Kang Seung-hyun’s eyes met slightly.

‘You’ll understand if I say useless things, right?’

‘Ah!’

Kang Seung-hyun shook the copy of the list he had kept for intimidation, so he had no choice but to watch the real culprit pass by shaking his body.
