How to Live as an Illegal Healer - Chapter 42
42. Corroded Ruins 1
When I looked back, an orange-haired adventurer approached me.
“Mr. Ruth?”
Someone said it was Ruth Taker, a patient who was poisoned by black lingonberry poison.
“who is this? Anyone know?”
“This is a patient I treated a while ago.”
Kang Seung-hyun gave a brief explanation about Ruth. He was a typical patient who was addicted to poison and lost money doing stupid things that only got healed.
“See you here! I owe you a lot last time!”
Ruth bowed her head to Seunghyun Kang. Looking at her walking around now, her legs seem to be better.
“Last time, thank you very much. teacher! This is the medical bill that I couldn’t pay you last time!”
“Oh, I completely forgot about that.”
To be honest, I thought I was going to eat and run.
There are more people than you think who don’t pay back and bounce around.
“I earned it by working hard!”
“yes. I will return the knife I was holding.”
At the time, Ruth didn’t have money for treatment, so she put her knife as collateral. Kang Seung-hyeon took out Ruth’s knife, which had been tucked away in the corner of his inventory.
“Oh oh! oh! my partner! Ceres! You were safe! I missed you! How have you been?”
Ruth was overjoyed and accepted.
Kim Ho-jeong whispered with a sad face.
“Why are you here? You’re talking to Carl.”
“I guess it must have been that much of a cherished knife…”
Kang Seung-hyun and his party slightly distanced themselves without Ruth knowing. Ruth didn’t know that and opened her mouth happily.
“It’s fate that we met like this… I’ll buy it today! Order here!”
Ruth shouted to order anything. The other day, he was broke without a penny, but today he says his pockets are relaxed.
“what? really? Oh yea!”
Thanks to this, Kim Ho-jeong kept the 100,000 gold bet on alcohol. Should I call this lucky or bad?
“Kuhya~ I thought the money would fly, but what kind of rice cake is this?”
“Then I’ll add one more seasoned mushroom skewers.”
“I’m going to have one butter-grilled mushroom and Ahila beer!”
“Oh, please bring me some tomato stew.”
and how long has it been The food we ordered started coming out one by one.
‘I heard that this house’s mushroom and potato stew goes well whenever I eat it.’
When I took a bite of the hot stew, it melted in my mouth. After all, the most delicious food is the rice eaten after completing the request.
‘And a glass of stamina cocktail to eat with delicious food.’
Kang Seung-hyun mixed mead with stamina potion and made it into a cocktail. A sweet and sour scent mixed with the sweet smell of honey. Kang Seung-hyun enjoyed the cocktail that went smoothly.
“Come on, have a drink too!”
Kim Ho-jung poured mead into Ruth’s glass.
“Isn’t this Bellotto raspberry mead? Are you expensive?”
“My Mr. Kang lives!”
In fact, it was exchanged with a voucher.
“As expected, Healer is different! Are you the heir to a prestigious family?”
Ruth, not knowing the truth, mistook Kang Seung-hyeon for a bourgeois.
“How have you been, Mr. Healer?”
“As always, I treated people and lived like that.”
also treat He also robbed the adventurer’s guild.
Priests also drink water. Beat the undead too.
I also communicate with a god-like person.
“This time, we’re on our way back after staying overnight at camp in the Veloto Mountains.”
“Because there was a request to wipe out monsters.”
“I heard you. I wanted to participate, but I was busy and couldn’t go.”
Those who borrowed money from the adventurer’s guild had to do low-paying jobs or work that others were reluctant to do.
Literally enslaved by the Adventurers Guild.
“I had to do the requests the Guild Guys gave me without saying anything… so I went a little far.”
“Even if I die of starvation, I won’t borrow money from the union.”
Kim Ho-jeong giggled and said.
The Adventurer’s Guild is a group of people who, when the adventurer who lent them money dies, revive them with necromantic magic. I’d rather just starve to death.
“Ah, so you’re taking a break right now after completing the quest?”
Ruth, who had been listening to the story, opened her mouth as if thinking of something.
“Yes.”
“Are you okay with two minutes?”
Ruth held out a piece of paper from her bosom.
“Party application?
“My cousin asked me to come because he was looking for party members.”
When it comes to party members, the most reliable person is blood ties. Next comes acquaintances and then strangers.
“But I’m a slave to the adventurer’s guild, so I can’t go even if I want to.”
It’s a request from my cousin, so it’s like refusing it.
Ruth was looking for a substitute to join her party.
“I don’t know anyone in Hind Village… except for the teacher. I have no one else to ask for except the teacher who sees his face a second time!”
“Are you not a blood relative or an acquaintance?”
“Teachers are trustworthy! A million times ten million times more than the priests of the Ayber Church!”
Ruth became an unbeliever in the priest after being hurt by the priest the other day.
“It doesn’t matter. There must already be a healer in the party.”
“He said he didn’t care about any job because he found all the essential jobs. You just need to match the number of heads.”
“…what happened.”
It doesn’t seem like a normal request.
“There is a portal dungeon near Hind Village.”
Portal Dungeon.
It is a subspace that is connected to other spaces as the space is distorted. It is characterized by the fact that powerful monsters inhabit it without knowing what will come out until you check the inside.
“If you leave a dungeon alone, monsters will appear inside. That’s why my brother says he’s going to clear the dungeon!”
Clearing the dungeon is simple. Either destroy the entrance portal with strong power or kill the boss monster.
“When are you leaving?”
If I were going today, I thought I would decline.
I just came back today and I want to rest. His severed right hand hadn’t healed yet.
‘It’s enough with my left hand, but just in case.’
“Three days later.”
After three days, you can afford it.
Your wrists will all heal and your fatigue will be relieved.
“Um… What do you think, Mr. Kim Ho-jung?”
“I’m okay! teacher?”
“I’m fine too.”
There is absolutely no reason to refuse. If you clear the dungeon, you can get good rewards.
Above all, if you increase the number of punching bags or party members, you can earn a lot of points.
“We will both participate.”
“Oh, thank you! live! It was a big deal because my aunt begged me to go with her.”
Ruth said with a relieved face. It seems that this has been a nuisance at home.
“Please take good care of my cousin brother! This is a cost of labor paid in advance!”
That’s how Kang Seung-hyeon accepted Ruth’s proposal to join the party.
-And three days later,
Kang Seung-hyun, who was ready, headed to the meeting place.
“Is your wrist all right?”
“All is well.”
Due to the effect of [Cure Judgment], the stitched wrists were neatly attached.
“I hope I never get my wrist cut again.”
I don’t care if I say this, but Kang Seung-Hyun liked having someone else’s wrist cut off rather than his own.
That’s how you earn points.
“It must be that person over there.”
When we went to the meeting place, there was the cousin Ruth had mentioned. She, like Ruth, had orange hair.
“Are you Ruth’s cousin?”
“hello! It’s called Tina Putane!”
A female adventurer who looks about the same age as Ruth.
Her name is Tina Putane. He was wearing a short sword and a small shield on his wrist.
“My name is Healer Kang Seung-hyun. This is my colleague Kim Ho-jeong.”
“Let’s get along. I am a tank.”
The three of them briefly introduced themselves to each other.
“I roughly heard the story from Ruth. I heard you healed Ruth?”
“He cured me of my poisoning with black bilberry.”
“Because Ruth recommended it, he must be a very talented person!”
“The skill is certain. Where is the place?”
“This is Hakkat Hill. It’s pretty close to Hind Village, right?”
Harkat Hill can be reached through the Fitri Forest south of town. As Tina said, it is definitely close to the village.
If left unattended, there is a risk that monsters from the entrance portal will attack the village.
“It’s over there.”
Kang Seung-hyeon and Tina headed to Hakkat Hill.
After entering the bush, he found a portal emitting magic and the adventurers gathered in front of it. These are the party members who will join us in this dungeon raid.
“They are all good people.”
Tina smiled and said, but the adventurers’ expressions weren’t very good.
“Tina, why are you so late?”
“I was thinking of leaving it if it was a little later.”
“Anyway, this is why swordsmen don’t know how much time is wasted.”
A woman who seemed to be a wizard, a man who looked like a leader, and a man who looked like a healer were extremely fond of Tina. It doesn’t seem too late, though.
“Everywhere you look, they are good people.”
“It seems that he has a good head, not his personality.”
Kang Seung-hyeon and Kim Ho-jung, who stood awkwardly behind them, whispered while watching the scene.
“It’s not too late, everyone, don’t be so.”
“That’s right…”
The only thing defending Tina was the man in black. The woman in the corner, who appeared to be a priest, was muttering very little, which didn’t help much.
“If you can’t even keep these basic promises, you won’t be able to trust and fight in the dungeon.”
The man who seemed to be the leader spoke arrogantly. Tina apologized with a very red face.
“sorry! It’s my first time here…”
Judging by how blushed she was, it seems that Tina has just become an adventurer. If you’re an experienced adventurer, you’ll go out shamelessly.
‘It’s not like the dungeon will disappear just because you come late.’
So Kang Seung-hyun, who has accumulated years of experience, shamelessly went out.
“It is late to say hello. I am Kang Seung-hyun, Tina’s fellow healer.”
“I am Kim Ho-jeong. Let’s come as a tanker.”
“I am Ergan, the leader of this party.”
Ergan was an adventurer with a large and strong body. Seeing as he doesn’t have any weapons, he’s a fist fighter.
“I don’t have much time, so I’ll introduce myself briefly. This is Healer Lakramati Iver Church Priest Sahita Log Isle Wizard Shuire.”
Ergan quickly introduced the party members.
Lacramati is a ruthless healer.
The priest muttering in the corner is Sahita.
The man who supported Tina was Ail.
And Shuire, the ruthless wizard.
“Is that a healer? Where are you looking?”
“That person over there… has low divine power…”
Lakramati and Sahita looked at Kang Seung-hyeon and said. It was because there was no divine power at all.
“At this level, it’s almost at the level of a subhuman beast… No, even beasts are higher
than this…”
No matter how you look at it, a guy who can’t be called a healer claims to be a healer.
“That guy too. What kind of tanker wears clothes like that.”
Wizard Shuire looked at Kim Ho-jung and was dumbfounded.
“Why are my clothes?”
“Isn’t that a robe?”
As she said, the clothes Kim Ho-jung was wearing was a black robe.
It’s usually worn only by wizards, but definitely not worn by tanks.
“This is a precious piece of clothing!”
“Glasses, robes, slippers… where the hell is that tank? A wizard.”
Similarly, a situation where a guy who can’t be called a tank no matter how you look at it claims to be a tanker.
Kang Seung-hyun and his party, visible in Ergan’s party, were a truly suspicious group.
“Come on, everyone, calm down.”
Aile stopped the three with a smile.
“There must be something wrong. We didn’t come together to fight among ourselves.”
“That guy is better.”
Kim Ho-jung nodded with a satisfied face. Kang Seung-hyun didn’t say anything.
“Still, the party members are nervous… Mr. Kang Seung-hyun, can you show your skills?”
Ayle asked politely. It’s rude to ask others to show off your skills, but I can’t help it right now.
“Then I… I was slightly injured earlier.”
Tina approached cautiously and said.
“Can you heal me?”
“Sure. Show me.”
Kang Seung-hyeon held out his hand to her. Lakramati and Sahita saw that and thought it was ridiculous.
‘It must be impossible…’
‘Is there a healer in the world who can heal others with such terrible divine power?’
