Became the Only Healer in the Academy

48

Junghwan met Jinseok after a long time.

Jin-seok was also tired and busy going out of the gate as usual, but it was not difficult at all to give Jeong-hwan this amount of time, so he greeted Jeong-hwan with a welcome expression.

“What are you worried about?”

The words Jinseok gave as soon as he saw Junghwan.

I believed that he was making an expression like nothing was wrong, but again, I couldn’t easily deceive him, so Junghwan replied with a grin.

“What is your concern? Let’s sit down.”

As usual, the two regulars at the food stall, where there are few people, ordered the side dishes they ate and shochu, and then lightly dumped them one by one.

“Are your parents okay?”

“Oh, don’t talk. Let’s fix it too much It feels like 10 years younger or something.”

Jinseok had a tired expression on his face, but he looked happier than ever.

“…thanks. If it wasn’t for you, and if it wasn’t for Hunter Kim…”

Jin-seok’s expression quickly hardened at the results that seemed to give goosebumps all over his body just by imagining it.

“I think it’s a lesson because everything went well.”

“It should be. But what happened?”

Jin-seok looked sharply at Jeong-hwan’s face and said, as if to tell him what to do now.

“Does it look like something serious is going on? It’s a face that you want to know outright.”

“…are you so teasing?”

“If you don’t know, you probably don’t care. So, what’s going on?”

Jeonghwan, who was just about to drink, let out a small sigh and told the story of today’s academy competition.

“her…”

Jin-seok could not even eat the snacks he had picked up with a thorn as if it was ridiculous, and stopped holding it in the air.

“That’s it.”

“Aren’t you absolutely crazy? Did you do that to Kim Seonghyun Hunter?”

“Uh…well, that’s also wrong.”

It seemed that the point of being angry with each other was subtly different, but still, once the emotions he felt were conveyed, Junghwan raised a glass and said.

“Seonghyun Kim … No, doing something like that to Hunter Kim is also a killing spree, but the problem is that we solved it for the Academy Luncheon. What if the poison is wrong? What if there was someone who was particularly sensitive?”

“The academy isn’t all about excellent people.”

“Yeah, I felt the pain today too.”

Not everyone at the academy would.

I could feel it just by looking at Sunghyun, and by looking at Sunghyun’s team.

There was a huge difference between being young because of lack of experience and being young because of lack of personality.

And, of course, the team member Jungseok was the latter, and Sunghyun and his team did not seem to belong to the former either.

“How is Hunter Kim doing these days?”

“I do not know. We bumped into each other for a while, but he’s definitely not a healer.”

“yes? What are you talking about? Then what?”

Junghwan remembered Seonghyeon from before.

Of course, I didn’t see Sung-hyun directly fighting.

However, he vowed to know more than anyone else what kind of power Daehyun, a member of the team, has.

The ability to control not one but dozens of arrows, such as invisible arrows that other students were not familiar with yet, was a talent that could fit within three fingers in at least a sophomore year.

He wasn’t a man lacking a sense of combat either.

Of course, it was Daehyun who often went to the subjugation of the gate as it was a tremendous ability, and he was the person who subjugated a large number of beasts each time.

‘You beat Daehyun like that.’

It didn’t matter if it was a close fight or overwhelming.

To be honest, when I think of Seong-hyeon, whom I met while treating Jin-seok’s parents, or at the Academy Equipment Works a month ago, I never thought that he had this level of power.

If so, it means that he has completely hidden his power, or that he has achieved that much growth in just one month.

And if at least one of these two belonged, it was unlikely that Seonghyun would remain as a simple healer in the future.

“…how did you grow up like that?”

As a hunter, it was possible to be a little jealous or jealous, but Jinseok’s expression was far from those things.

He had an expression full of awe and respect, and only congratulations.

‘Well, that’s okay.’

“When Hunter Kim graduates, I want to go on a subjugation together.”

“Haha, are you okay? It would still be difficult.”

“That’s why you don’t work so hard, you should be of some help.”

Jeonghwan was worried for a while that he might be showing too much trust, but he burst into laughter at the sight of him becoming a motivation for growth.

“Where is the second car going?”

“Would you like to see your parents once in a while? Anyway, you connected me with Hunter Kim. Hunter Kim said it was natural and he wanted to say thank you to you too.”

“Your parents?”

“Yeah, Hunter Kim is still busy, so let’s go together if you have time now, if it’s okay with you.”

“…good. let’s go.”

Junghwan also followed Jinseok with the conviction that it was good to meet Jinseok today.

Since he couldn’t go empty-handed, Jung-hwan, who bought suitable things from a nearby convenience store, headed to Jin-seok’s house with Jin-seok.

As I went around the first alley from which I started, I felt my heart sink in an instant.

“what…”

It wasn’t just a feeling of being heartbroken.

My body was getting heavier, and it was as if gravity had gotten stronger as I was having a hard time taking my steps.

‘Wait, is gravity… getting stronger?’

Junghwan strengthened his legs by strengthening the parts and stood up from his seat.

“Ugh…”

“Hold on a little bit, Jinseok-ah.”

Jinseok, who had no resistance in this direction, fell to the floor and was unable to get up.

“…come out.”

“It feels good too.”

The figure that emerged from the front corner was, as expected, Jungseok.

“What are you doing? Are you using your powers so openly in the middle of a city like this?”

It was absurd to be absurd, but anger was boiling from within.

“don’t worry. No one here can see or feel it.”

“…What?”

Junghwan looked around quickly.

There were no special devices, but looking closely at the middle stone, he was holding something in his hand.

“…you didn’t do it alone.”

“So what? Does knowing that make a difference now? anyway you die here Oh, and unfortunately, your friend got involved too.”

Jinseok was still lying on his bed, unable to properly control his body due to gravity.

Seeing that the slight moan continued to be heard, fortunately, it seemed to be holding up.

“You bastard asshole.”

“Call whatever you want. I can’t even call you anymore.”

Jeonghwan was about to step away slowly, but Junghwan raised his hand and said.

“Uh-huh, if you move one more step from there, your friend. just die.”

“…”

It was already seen as unbearable.

It was as if he could not bear the moans now and passed out.

“What do you want?”

“Didn’t you just tell me? I want you to die.”

Jeonghwan said in a more firm voice than ever before.

“…Is this what it is? Is it enough to cost an innocent person the life of an innocent person in just one confrontation?”

“Something like that? you don’t know What was at stake in this fight?”

Joong-seok’s face suddenly distorted for a moment, but he soon changed his expression and said.

“The chatter ends here. I don’t have much time either.”

After speaking, Joong-seok took something else out of his pocket.

Then, he roughly put down what he was holding in his other hand and reached out to reach Jeonghwan, holding something.

“I can blame you. Because I resent you too.”

“what…”

Before Junghwan could finish his words, the thing he was holding in Jungseok’s hand started to glow.

Then, the applied gravity grew stronger and stronger.

Jeonghwan, who was holding on to the strengthening of his parts, was getting more and more difficult, so Jinseok’s condition was clear even without looking at it.

‘I hope it shines…’

Up until now, I had been leaning on a glimmer of hope with all my heart, but no matter how I look at it, what is shining in that hand now is the equipment I received from the academy about three weeks ago.

Zhongseok’s equipment amplifies his abilities.

Its range was reduced compared to the previous one, but it was a device that greatly increased its power.

In the end, Jeonghwan also sat down in place due to the increasingly strong gravity.

‘…to die like this?’

I laughed out loud at the fact that we had to die from a friend and colleague who had left each other’s back at the door and no one else, and that the colleague was trying to kill his friend.

There was only one thing he could do right now.

Jung-seok, caught in the madness in front of him, wants to kill him and save Jin-seok.

If he endured here a little longer, Joong-seok’s magic might run out, but if that happened, Jin-seok would surely die.

But then, a voice came from behind Jeonghwan.

“Huh, it’s not too late.”

“Ki, Kim Seong-hyun?”

Jung-hwan looked at Sung-hyeon blankly with surprised eyes, and Jung-seok looked at Seong-hyeon with more startled eyes than Jeong-hwa.

“What, what! How…! No one would know because of the barrier…?”

“Well, there is something like that.”

As soon as he finished answering Seonghyeon, he stared at Jungseok.

“Hey, as long as it’s like this, you too…”

Just when what he held in his hand was about to shine, Joong-seok suddenly grabbed his heart and sat down on the spot and started moaning.

“Cuckoo! Whoops…!”

It was kind of like a fight.

However, if there is a slightly different difference, the pain at that time and the pain now are so different that it is difficult to compare them.

‘Why, why the heart…!’

I tried squeezing my heart and beating it a little hard, but the pain did not stop in any way.

‘Maybe Kim Seong-hyun…?’

Anyway, there was only one reason.

The culprit behind everything that suddenly appeared.

“Ki, Kim Seong, cool! are you You told me… Cool!”

Words did not come out properly.

It was difficult to maintain the gaze that was looking at Sung-hyun now.

However, as time passed, anger and hatred toward Seong-hyeon were slowly disappearing.

The constant pain was only getting worse, and now the fear that I might die from this pain, or that I would die unconditionally, took its place.

I couldn’t even run away.

This pain was not allowing me to take a single step.

“Why all of a sudden…”

Soon, the strong gravity holding Jeonghwan’s body disappeared, and Junghwan looked directly at Jinseok’s body.

“Hey, Kim Seong-hyun! I’m sorry, but I can cure Jinseok here…”

“You don’t have to.”

I wondered if he would refuse, but now Jin-seok’s expression was calm, as if he had just lost his mind and was asleep.

“More than that, how are you…?”

He didn’t believe everything Joong-seok said, but one of the pieces of equipment that Jung-seok had was definitely a barrier-making device.

Equipment that is strictly illegal to use in such daily life.

As such, the effect itself was a sure piece of equipment, but now Seonghyeon had broken through that barrier and came to him.

“Ah… there is such a thing.”

Seonghyun recalled the headache he had felt before.

As usual, I was going to go hunting for the association, but suddenly, with a slight headache, an unknown scene began to appear in my mind.
