How to Live as an Illegal Healer

14. Let’s do a good deed 2

Adventurers rarely listen to cures. Even though it was a light wound that could be healed with just a few potions.

-I can’t trust the words of a guy who doesn’t know how to heal.

Because I used to go away.

‘But commoners are a bit different.’

Commoners also believed in Hill, but they had no money.

Adventurers can find a healer if they save up some money, but commoners are busy earning a living every day.

-What about heels when you don’t have money?

– It would be better if I just let it go.

– Buy a potion and drink it.

As a result, commoners often died from minor wounds that worsened. Healers did not accept pennies, so they looked for ways to fix themselves with pennies.

One of them was a potion. Potions were much cheaper and easier to obtain compared to heal.

– If you drink the potion, the wound heals quickly.

– It’s insignificant compared to heal, but it’s better than not using it.

Adventurers looked down on pharmacists compared to healers, but they were indispensable to commoners.

The pharmacists would make potions for free if you brought them the ingredients, or exchanged them for cheap potions in exchange for pennies or items.

‘If adventurers have high eyes and cover a lot of things, commoners are in no position to cover them.’

Whether or not Kang Seung-hyeon knew how to use heels, the commoners didn’t care at all. Irrespective of whether the other party was a healer or a drug, anyone was welcomed if they could receive treatment at a low price.

‘In a way, wouldn’t he be smarter than an adventurer?’

Kang Seung-hyun also ran a barter clinic in his spare time. Like other pharmacists, receiving food or potion ingredients.

‘I earn points with both sides.’

If the healer says that he will treat you without paying, the next village will come. Thanks to that, if you caught me and treated me, the points would accumulate quickly.

“Can I do this?”

What the woman held out was a basket of potatoes.

“sure.”

Seunghyun Kang received the potato with a smile. It’s perfect for a side dish tonight.

“Let’s look at the wounds first. Which arm is it?”

“Here…”

The woman raised her left arm. An old, old cloth was wrapped around his arm. Seeing the blood on it, it seems that first aid was done in a hurry.

Squeak.

Untying the cloth revealed the wound. It was like being cut by a sharp object. Just looking at it, I could tell that it was a cut from a farm implement.

The woman opened her mouth with a nervous face.

“I heard that someone I knew slightly cut his finger on a hoe while working and died of a serious illness.”

It sounds like you are talking about tetanus. It’s okay to get vaccinated, but in a place where that’s impossible, it’s a truly terrifying disease.

“That’s why I was so scared…. I was worried when I heard that Healer had just opened a clinic.”

“Do not worry too much.”

There is no such thing as a vaccination in the Azul Continent, but you can make a tetanus cure using medicinal materials. The problem is that gathering the ingredients is a bit tricky.

‘Let’s take a closer look at the wound.’

Seunghyun Kang’s eyes shone blue.

[Observation eye]

Let’s look at it with the eye of observation, and we were able to get more detailed information.

[Slight abrasion caused by scratching the arm with a hoe.]

[The wound lasted for about two days.]

[There is a risk of infection if the old bandage is used continuously.]

Other than that, no information appeared. Seeing that the [infection] keyword did not appear separately, it was not due to tetanus. Literally a light abrasion patient.

“Fortunately, it’s not that serious.”

“okay. Thank God…”

The woman sighed with a relieved face.

“Let’s disinfect first…”

Kang Seung-hyun took out a potion from his inventory. It is a medicine that helps regenerate skin wounds.

“If you apply it twice a day for three days, it will heal quickly.”

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

Adventurers treat people as swindlers and annoy them if their wounds do not noticeably improve even after the treatment is finished.

‘When it’s all healed, “Oh, thank you. teacher.” Although I prostrate myself while doing this.’

Unlike those adventurers, commoners understand that healing takes time if you don’t use heals. That’s why I was the type to follow what he was told without having to explain every word.

“This potion looks strange.”

The woman looked at the potion with curious eyes.

“This is a semi-solid potion.”

It is not a liquid type potion that is often seen, but a semi-solid potion. To put it simply, it was ointment.

“Liquid potions take effect as soon as you drink them, but they last for a short time.”

So useful in combat, but subtle when healing.

“On the other hand, semi-solid potions have a slower effect, but last longer.”

“Aha, that’s right.”

“I rarely use it in battle, but I like it when it comes to healing.”

The potion industry in Azul Continent mainly revolves around adventurers. So, liquid potions are popular, but semi-solid potions are rarely made unless you are a pharmacist.

“The recipe is simpler than you think. You can combine a 2:1:1 ratio of cedar tree trunk and yellow snail oil dentrol moss, mix it with a regeneration potion, and boil it.”

All of these items were easily obtainable near Hind Village.

“And if you let it cool for a day or so, it changes like this.”

Boil ingredients and regeneration potions to thicken them. Leave it in a cool place and it’s done.

“You said you applied it twice a day, right? Can I apply it anytime?”

“yes. morning and evening. Apply after eating comfortably.”

Kang Seung-hyun applied a skin regeneration ointment to the wound. There is no change right now, but it will be noticeably better when you wake up.

“Then it heals without scarring.”

“thank you sir.”

“The treatment is over with this.”

“thank you. May Master Aiber’s grace be upon you.”

The woman was very grateful and tried to wrap her arm with an old bandage.

“Oh wait.”

The wound itself is not a big deal, but that is when a secondary infection has not occurred. If you keep using old bandages, the wound will become infected before it heals.

“Discard this and use a new bandage.”

“I’d like to, but I don’t have any spare fabric right now…”

Commoners make bandages out of leftover scraps of cloth. Because regular bandages are expensive. So, there were many cases in which bandages were recycled or used even if they were worn out.

‘It’s better than not using it at all, but it’s not very good either.’

In an attempt to prevent external infection, you may end up getting infected because of a contaminated bandage.

So the best thing is to put on a new bandage.

“please wait for a moment. I’ll be back soon.”

“yes? Yes…”

Kang Seung-hyun left the woman and headed elsewhere. I’ll be back soon, so please wait for me.

‘I forgot to make extra bandages!’

Adventurers bought new bandages, but commoners used homemade bandages made at home. I only buy cheap potions, but there’s no way I can buy good ones like bandages.

‘You don’t have to worry about bandages when treating adventurers, but when treating commoners, you have to care about bandages…’ It’s

the fastest way to buy at a general store in town, but it’s not just one or two pennies, it’s like buying them individually.

“welcome. What would you like?”

“Ten bunches of weeds, please.”

The place Kang Seung-hyun headed was not a general store, but a street vendor in the market. The shopkeeper held out ten bundles of weeds piled in front of him.

“Each one is 5 gold… 50 gold.”

“Here you go.”

“I don’t know why you live so much, but… thank you. Come again.”

You might ask why we pay money to buy weeds that we see everywhere, but weeds are useful.

It can be given as animal food when going on a long journey,

dried well and used as kindling, and

it is also very good for alchemy ingredients, potion ingredients, cooking ingredients, or cleaning.

‘And I can make bandages too.’

Seunghyun Kang can make bandages out of weeds. To be precise, it’s a skill to make cloth.

[Cloth making]

When I first saw this skill in roulette, I thought it was a joke. I thought that something like this would be used by healers, but when I actually used it, it was useful.

‘I never thought we could extract vegetable fibers from weeds.’

The [Cloth Making] skill was able to make not only animal fibers such as silk and wool, but also vegetable fibers such as hemp and ramie. A miraculous skill that pulls out a piece of cloth even with weeds.

If you’re just a healer, you might not know it, but it’s the best skill for a wild healer. You can pull off a bandage and use it even on the street.

‘Of course, if the material is cheap, the fabric that comes out is also cheap… but it’s better than an old bandage!’

[Cloth making]

When you hold a handful of weeds and use the skill, the blades of grass turn into cloth. Compared to the cloth woven on a spinning wheel or loom, it was poor, but it was good enough to be used as a bandage.

‘Did you say this is called a cloth?’

square square.

Cut a long piece of cloth to an appropriate length and roll it up to make a nice bandage. Kang Seung-hyun returned to his seat with a homemade bandage.

“Now write this.”

“thank you!”

The woman’s face brightened.

He must have never thought that he would bring new bandages. The treatment was finished when a new bandage was applied to the arm. The

points came in without a problem. The woman thanked Kang Seung-hyun and left.

“Do you really fix it without paying?”

“teacher! Look at the wounds!”

While we were cleaning up after the first guest, the second and third guests came.

“sure. Please sit down.”

Due to the nature of their jobs, Hind villagers often suffered from cuts and scratches. Kang Seung-hyeon also calculated that point and made many medicines for healing wounds.

‘It was good that I prepared a lot.’

Thanks to the medicine and bandages prepared in advance, I was able to treat without problems.

“Thank you teacher!”

“You will be blessed!”

If the patients who returned like this spread word of mouth, the next customer and the next customer will keep coming. Seunghyun Kang welcomed patients without a break.

‘It’s really easy to earn points.’

Seunghyun Kang checked the status window.

[Accumulated points: 72 points]

Kang Seung-hyun looked at the accumulated points.

The life of Yamae Healer was very satisfying. It’s not bad to fight monsters, but it’s much better to heal others comfortably in town and earn points.

“I hope that there will be more customers like this in the future.”

It’s easy, comfortable, fun, and earns points. Today, Kang Seung-hyun’s job satisfaction was at an all-time high.

“Hey, give me some potions.”

Until the true guest shows up.
