How to Live as an Illegal Healer

246. Disgusting things

.

A red deer with a veil on its face.

No, the ‘God of Harmony and Convergence’, Zumaire, came toward Kang Seung-Hyun, spewing out a tremendous amount of life force.

‘It must be natural.’

Divine beings do not reveal themselves at all. This is because they consume energy just by moving.

Thanks to this, the gods couldn’t appear without using a lot of power, even if they were in a dream rather than reality.

‘Because the fact that such an existence dared to go directly to someone else’s dream means that it was that much maddening.’

I expected that Zmayre would come.

It’s nothing else, it’s because they blew up the temple and the Great Shrine of the Holy Land.

{Dare, dare…}

Squeeze.

Each time Zumare approached, the surrounding space distorted, and the gray sky and ground melted.

Beyond the melted sky and land, an endless black space was revealed.

{They must have invaded the sanctuary and overrun the temple…!}

Slowly.

Eventually, Kang Seung-hyun’s fingertips began to melt like ice cream in summer.

Sarak, rattle, rattle, rattle.

Sarak, rattle, rattle, rattle.

Sarak, rattle, rattle, rattle.

At the same time, an incomprehensible low and grotesque whisper was heard in his ear,

{I will not forgive you!!!!!}

Finally, Zumare, who had come right in front of me, screamed and pushed the bloody veil over Kang Seung-hyun’s face.

“…”

Then Kang Seung-hyun slowly raised his hand.

match!

He slapped Zumare in the face.

match!

match!

Not even once, but twice or three times in a row.

{…}

There was no damage at all, but Zumare shut up for a moment, as if he had never thought that he would be slapped in the face in this situation.

“Oh sorry. I lost because it was so noisy.”

{How can you hold on to my [awe] even if it’s in a dream…}

“Because I’ve never done this before or twice.”

Kang Seung-hyun opened his mouth with a calm face.

This is the first time a famous cult like Zmayre has been destroyed, but in fact, several smaller cults have been destroyed for bounty purposes before.

“Even if it wasn’t for you, there were quite a few gods who came.”

All the gods who came to him showed [a sense of awe] and used all kinds of skills to threaten and intimidate Kang Seung-hyeon.

Just like Zumare now.

“Then I found out. That no matter how godlike he is, he cannot inflict physical damage in a dream.”

A dream is an unconscious world far from reality.

In other words, no matter how many skills the gods used to attack, as long as this place was a dream, they couldn’t do any damage to humans in reality.

In fact, the hand that had melted away had been restored before I knew it.

Because this was a dream, not reality.

“The only thing that can do damage is mental damage.”

As an analogy, it’s like when you’re talking on the phone with someone, you can hurt the other person’s mood with a double-swearing insult, but you can’t hit the other person.

“But my mentality is rather strong… I’m virtually invincible in my dreams.”

No matter how proud a god may be, he cannot exert 100% of his power in a dream.

Even if it is not, it is unlikely that Kang Seung-hyun’s strong mentality can be broken with a much more nerfed state than in reality.

In the end, the gods who came to attack Kang Seung-hyeon had to go back alone, wasting their strength.

“If you know, don’t do useless things and go home.”

Even during this time, faith is being consumed at a rapid rate.

Naturally, I thought that Zumare would disappear like other divine beings, gnashing their teeth.

{I recognized her from the time she invaded the sanctuary alone, but she’s definitely not a normal human.}

However, Zumare didn’t leave her seat and changed her form to a human rather than a beast.

rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

The face was unrecognizable as he was still wearing the veil, but the torso was clearly human.

{Then let me make a suggestion.}

{Kill that disgusting thing. If you do, I will give you mighty power.}

“A disgusting thing? Lewis priest?”

{The beast you brought, not him.}

At first, I didn’t know what he was talking about.

But it wasn’t until I heard the second words that I realized that what Zumare was talking about was Kim Ho-jung’s black beast.

‘Why do you call the black beast that way?’

It is true that when he destroyed the Great War earlier, he had a blast with the Black Beast.

However, it was a bit strange to pick up only the black beast and call it ‘disgusting’. Because Zumare didn’t call Kang Seung-hyun, an accomplice, by that title.

‘It feels like there’s a different reason.’

I don’t know why, but Zmayre was very displeased with the black beast. Just like humans hate cockroaches.

“…what exactly do you mean by disgusting?”

{I can’t tell you that.}

“Then I can’t accept the offer either.”

Kang Seung-hyun laughed and refused.

I have no intention of accepting it in the first place.

{Kill the disgusting monster right now!}

{If you refuse, I will invite the followers of the Church of Zumare to the mansion you are staying in!}

Zumare tried to threaten the followers of her own Church, but it didn’t work.

“Try it. But if you can’t kill him instantly in one hit, you’ll have to be prepared.”

{Resolution?}

“Because I’m going to kill all the followers of Zumare.”

Kang Seung-hyun threatened Zumare in reverse.

The gods of the Azul Continent become weaker as the number of followers decreases, and when there are not even one left, they are forgotten and disappear in the world.

“The church was already in a frenzy, and if the number of believers decreased even further here, it would be the end of it.”

In fact, there were gods who tried to threaten Kang Seung-hyun to the end, but all of them could not withstand the threat of annihilation and surrendered.

{Cerudiness…. Even if I had full strength!}

“If you have any complaints, this time go to the black beast and ask him to kill me.”

In the end, Zumare, like the other gods, trembled and left Kang Seung-hyeon’s dream.

{Huh.}

{Does it look black to humans?}

Just spitting out incomprehensible words right before disappearing.

“what?”

I tried to ask again, but Zumare had already disappeared.

“Don’t they look black?”

Kang Seung-hyun lay down on the floor with a puzzled face. When I see my vision slowly getting darker, it seems like I am waking up from a dream.

“Sorry. If I had been able to use the status window, I would have taken out a dagger and threw it in the bastard’s face.”

In fact, you can create a dagger in your dreams, but it doesn’t hurt to hit it with the objects in your dreams.

Getting slapped on the cheek feels bad.

“How nice it would be to have a weapon that can be used even in dreams. Then the invading gods will be beaten and driven away.”

There can be no such thing.

Kang Seung-hyun sighed and at the same time his vision became pitch-black.

-About a week has passed since I had the dream.

In the meantime, Kang Seung-hyun did not step out of the Lewis mansion and stuck to it.

Thanks to this, the messy body was quickly restored, and the black beast, which had been cut in half, was restored to its original state, so there was no problem even if it left immediately.

“Please leave.”

“I will leave soon.”

“Didn’t you say that three days ago?”

“It must be because of my mood.”

Actually, my body recovered in two days, but I deliberately stayed longer because I thought that if I left too early, Father Lewis would be disappointed.

“Anyway, these are the new information I got this time.”

“thank you.”

“Tsk, why do I have to be an errand boy at this age…”

While staying at the mansion, Kang Seung-hyeon ordered Priest Lewis to gather information about the Church of Zumare.

[All high-ranking priests, including the leader of Hesia, are missing.]

[The intermediate priests died without being able to escape while looking for the high-ranking priests.]

[Only a few intermediate priests and apprentice priests survived.]

In conclusion, the Zumare Church is completely ruined.

All the high-ranking priests with strong divine power died, and only half-hearted people survived.

Of course, there were a handful of surviving mid-level priests and priests who were dispatched outside the base, so the church itself wasn’t completely ruined, but

‘I’ve already said that the highest-ranking human in Ladia is Priest Lewis.’

It didn’t change that it was gradually ruined.

In particular, the Church of Zumare brought in the high-ranking priests dispatched for secret experiments to their home base and filled the place with intermediate-level apprentice priests, so the damage was greater.

-Thanks to this, even after two years, the Church of Zumare has not recovered even half of half of its heyday. On the contrary, it seems to be getting weaker and weaker.

Thanks to this, it seems that the truth of the Zumare incident will not be revealed forever.

“It is time to leave soon.”

“Thank you so much….”

The rescued children were contacted by their families.

It would have taken several months originally, but it was worth it to hire an intelligence dealer with Lewis’ money.

“Where are you going?”

“I’m going to go to Havasta first!”

“Other families also agreed to meet there.”

However, the little boy who acted as the apostle of Zumare went to Habasta, the city of the pitch-dark mage tower, because the black magic power remaining in his body did not disappear.

“The carriage has arrived!”

Of course, all the expenses to get here were paid by Priest Lewis.

“Me me! I’m sorry then…”

“It’s okay. To be honest, I hit more.”

“Ah, but the black monster I saw there…”

“Please keep that a secret.”

“yes.”

Before boarding the wagon, the little test subject approached and apologized. Although he lost his qualifications as an apostle, his memories did not disappear, so this little boy bowed his head and apologized whenever he saw Kang Seung-hyun all week.

“Thank you so far.”

“good bye!”

“Thank you brother!”

So the children left Radaia in a carriage.

will never come here again

“{Um… it’s time to leave.}”

“{Come out if you know.}”

After all the children have left.

The black beast that had been hiding under the sofa all week crawled out.

When I asked the reason later, he replied, ‘I’m trying to hide in case the kids come in and see me, so they’ll be surprised.’ But Kang Seung-hyun thought, ‘I just like being under the sofa.’

“I’ll just go.”

“I’ve been tired for a while, and I won’t come again.”

“I will come again if I have something to stop by here.”

“Will you listen to me?”

Kang Seung-hyun happily said goodbye to Priest Lewis and left the mansion with the black beast.

-After that, it wasn’t much different from before.

The two walked around the Azul Continent again, and Kim Ho-jeong, who returned as a human while walking on the road, took the lead again, burning with enthusiasm.

“You got a new skill? Sensei, can you use heels now?”

“It’s not Hill. It’s my exclusive wild skill.”

“Ugh!”

“These are [sutures] that can quickly stitch the skin together.”

“Couldn’t you tell me in advance and use it?”

What has changed is that Kang Seung-hyeon started looking for commissions to utilize his newly acquired skills instead of working as a bounty hunter.

“Hello, this is Starlight Inn!”

“A meal for two. A colleague will come later.”

“all right!”

The point is that Kang Seung-hyun, who usually used the word temporary colleague, stopped saying the word temporary.

– So two more months pass.

The temporary companionship of the two has already entered its third month.
