How to Live as an Illegal Healer

98. Lake North 1

“It’s been a lot longer than I thought.”

Kang Seung-hyeon followed the captain of the guard outside the Adventurer’s Guild. Judging from the coolness of the outside air, it must have been inside the building for quite some time.

“I thought you would come sooner.”

“Uh… isn’t this fast enough?”

Kim Ho-jung, who followed, said with a puzzled face.

I took out my watch and checked the time, and it was about 3-4 hours.

“There were quite a few things we asked for. In addition, you have to enchant the ship… That’s why it’s great!”

“Of course it is a great thing.”

General potions and guides are easy to obtain if you have money, but making enchantment items is quite difficult.

So it can feel really great.

“Right?”

“It’s easy compared to how we stayed up all night to protect the city.”

Seunghyun Kang replied with a smile.

No matter how hard it is, will it be harder than this?

Working like crazy for 3-4 hours to prepare items.

vs

I can’t sleep at dawn and play a defense game with monsters flocking to Kamar.

‘Whoever sees it, the latter is much tougher.’

The former is child’s play compared to the latter.

“That’s right. We couldn’t sleep and fought.”

“No matter how great our opponents are, they are just as bad as us.”

Kang Seung-hyeon and Kim Ho-jung talked about this and that and walked forward.

– “This way.”

“i know.”

“Oh… they’re all gathered.”

The two headed for the north gate after being guided by the captain of the guard. There, the lord of Gabain and wizards and others were waiting for Kang Seung-hyeon and his party.

“How did your request go?”

“All of the conditions you asked for… have been achieved.”

Gabain sighed and murmured.

Just in case, I used the [Eye of Observation], and the [Magic Depletion] information came to mind. It seems that he poured all his magic power into the enchantment and ran out of magic power.

‘This is quite an inspiration. To be honest, I didn’t expect it and asked for it.’

No matter how skilled you are, it is not easy to continuously cast enchantments. Especially if there are not just one or two, but dozens.

Even so, the fact that this was successful means that Gabain is an enchanter of great skill.

‘I should have pampered him a bit more with this.’

Seunghyun Kang smiled and looked at Gabain. Gabain opened his mouth, feeling a little goosebumps.

“Anyway, your request was handled perfectly. The guide is waiting over there.”

“Thanks for your efforts. I didn’t know you would work so hard that your mana would run out.”

“…”

“Then let’s go to the lakeside. To check the condition of the boat and to meet the guides.”

When Kang Seung-hyeon passed through the North Gate of Camar, a wide open Pitsta Lake appeared. It is a lakeside landscape that is not much different from other places.

Except for being unusually quiet.

“It’s really fancy. It was five minutes before the opening in the south, west or east.”

Kim Ho-jung stared at the lakeside and said.

It’s so quiet that it feels odd.

“It’s rather suspicious when it’s quiet like this.”

“…it only smells like waterweed.”

“I wonder if there is something.”

Seunghyun Kang also looked at the lake.

Right now, all of Pitsta Lake, except for the fish monsters with bad intelligence, have fled from the north.

“I know. The water wasn’t even polluted, but the monsters that lived there ran away…”

Kim Ho-jeong dipped her hand into the lake water.

The water was still clear and clean.

“But what if you’re going to lose anyway?”

Seunghyun Kang picked up a stone.

“Rather than being surprised without knowing.”

Then, after throwing and catching the stones he picked up, he threw them towards the lake.

“It’s better to know something and suffer.”

[Throwing]

A stone that flew at high speed splashes! It disappeared into the water with a sound.

“Healer Kang Seung-hyun.”

Lord Gabain approached the two of them.

“yes.”

“That over there is the boat you asked for.”

A small boat was waiting where Lord Gabain pointed. It’s not that big, but it was enough to carry the luggage I prepared.

‘That’s enough.’

[Eyes of Observation] When

Kang Seung-hyun’s eyes were shining blue, various information began to appear on the ferry.

[A ferry made of Pitsta Adri wood]

[Light and durable, and does not rot easily.]

[It seems to have been stuck in a warehouse.]

In addition to simple information about the ship,

[「Water attribute resistance +550%」]

[「Underwater movement speed Increase +600%]

[“Water attribute enhancement +500%”]

[“Water resistance +550%”]

…[“Durability enhancement +600%”]

[“Anti-sickness +1000%”]

Enchantment on the stomach up to the details of.

Kang Seung-hyun carefully checked the information that appeared.

‘I didn’t miss anything. The enchantment performance is also good.’

There was no problem even if we left immediately.

As expected, the special enchantment of the lord of Kamar is different.

“Is that the boat we’re going on?”

While Kang Seung-hyeon was observing the boat, Ho-jung Kim snooped and approached.

“yes. It’s a boat made of Adri trees.”

“How is that?”

“It is in good condition, of course.”

It is in such good condition that it is a shame to use it once and throw it away.

“Then the most important question… is it okay for me to ride?”

“Anti motion sickness plus 1000%. It boasts stability that is incomparable to ordinary boats.”

With this level of enchantment, you will be fine even if you do 5 consecutive somersaults on the boat.

Kim Ho-jeong sighed with a relieved face.

“Ah, it’s nice to hear that. I was worried that I might have missed something.”

“I have brought guides.”

The soldiers brought in a guide while the two watched the boat.

A red-haired man and a red-haired woman.

And even the red-haired kid.

These three people are a family of guides who will guide you from the Red Forest to Tracotti Village.

“It is an honor to meet you.”

All three greeted each other with very nervous faces.

‘It’s natural to be nervous.’

Not only the soldiers, but also the lord and nobles of Kamar, as well as the hero who saved Kamar.

“nice to meet you. My name is Healer Kang Seung-hyun.”

Kang Seung-hyun greeted the three of them with a friendly smile to ease the tension.

“This is tanker Kim Ho-jeong. He is my colleague.”

“Nice to meet you all!”

Kim Ho-jung also greeted with a bright smile.

After greeting Kang Seung-hyun, he looked around at the three of them.

“I think our introduction is over, so everyone should briefly introduce themselves.”

The red-haired man nodded and said.

“My name is Balik. This is my wife, Daisy, and her child’s name is Rudy. My family is doing pottery work in the village of Trakoti.”

The Balik couple visited Kamar to treat Rudy who was ill and to sell goods.

However, due to the Mage Tower incident, their feet were tied up.

“I was going to go back as usual after finishing my business, but I heard that the ship was cut off.”

“They said there was a problem with the mage tower…”

“I was at a loss for what to do, but Lord Gabain found a volunteer to guide me through the Red Forest.”

It is said that Balik volunteered without hesitation.

I don’t know why, but it was because I was able to go back to the village.

“I was worried because there were only children at home.”

said Daisy, hugging Rudy.

Apparently, there are other children besides Rudy.

“Oh, I don’t worry if there are only children at home. Because I don’t eat homemade food and eat snacks.”

Kim Ho-jeong said while touching her chin.

It’s really an idea that only an old man would do.

“Then, I can trust you to travel from the Red Forest to Tracotti Village.”

“Usually, I haven’t been around late at night because of the monsters and bandits, but…”

Balik said in a voice that was not very confident.

“So why not?”

“Oh no! Even in the middle of the night! I’ve been to the Red Forest so often that it’s no problem to go around with my eyes closed.”

“That’s enough.”

Seunghyun Kang nodded with a satisfied face.

“We will take responsibility for the stumbling block. Everyone, just give me directions.”

“Yes, yes. Catching monsters and thieves is our specialty again. Leave it to the adventurer.”

“And I’ll ‘surely’ pay you for directions.”

Seunghyun Kang glanced at the lord of Gabain.

It was a look that told me to get the money out quickly.

“Take it out.”

“yes.”

A sorceress under the command of Lord Gabain closed her eyes tightly and took out a bag of money from her bosom.

“This is the reward you requested.”

“Oh, quite a few.”

Looking at how heavy it looks, it looks like the amount that commoners of Azul Continent can play and eat for a month.

Of course, by aristocratic standards, it would be a pittance.

“This kind of money… to that kind of commoner…”

A small grumble could be heard as if it was a waste to give even that.

“This much…?”

“How much is all this?”

Balik, who was stiff with tension, looked at the money in his pocket and his eyes changed.

“I will do my best to guide you!”

Valik shouted with an eager face.

After all, money is the best means of persuasion.

“Even risking my life, I will guide you to Tracotti Village!”

“You don’t have to risk your life.”

Kang Seung-hyeon said that and got on the boat.

It was comfortable without shaking, perhaps thanks to the motion sickness prevention enchantment.

“Please paddle instead.”

“I see.”

Valik and Daisy, who followed, picked up the oars.

It seems that the steering of the ship can be left to two people.

“Now all that’s left is stuff.”

Kang Seung-hyeon checked the items on the boat.

All of the items requested were included.

“I am sure. All potions are genuine.”

“Can you tell just by looking at it?”

“Did I not tell you?”

“I didn’t. I am hearing it for the first time.”

“Because I have that potion determination skill.”

[Potion determination – Stamina]

[You can distinguish stamina potions just by looking at them with your eyes.] This

is an achievement reward for drinking too many stamina potions.

Thanks to this, even if you don’t know about other potions, you can trust and drink the stamina potion.

“That’s why I scolded the guys playing around with stamina potions a few times.”

“You really have all kinds of skills…”

“Is there anything else missing?”

“Nothing. As far as my motion sickness!”

Kim Ho-jeong said as she got on the boat.

A person jumped into the boat, but it was still comfortable without shaking.

“Then let’s go.”

After Kang Seung-hyeon finished speaking, the two started rowing.

‘The sun is about to set.’

The boat carrying Kang Seung-hyeon moved at high speed.

It was thanks to the enchantment placed on the ship.

Chow ah!

I listened to the sound of the water and looked up at the sky to see the evening sunset.

‘I won’t be coming to Camar for a while.’

Looking back, the red lake surrounding the red mage tower caught my eye. This is because Lake Pitsta was dyed red under the influence of the evening sunset.

‘It’s a scene that suits the Crimson Magic Tower.’

-The ferry carrying Kang Seung-hyeon and the others moved away at a rapid pace.

“It was a really crazy proposition.”

“I want you to enchant items that will be used and discarded…”

“Even so, the construction of the Magic Association and the restoration of the Mage Tower are going to cost a lot of money.”

Several wizards who watched the scene from the lakeside grumbled. Kang Seung-hyeon is a hero who saved Camar, but he said that he was overdoing it.

“You don’t know what!”

But Gabain shuddered. It was because it was a more terrifying moment than ever for him, who mistook Kang Seung-hyun for an anti-magician.

‘To not even notice that my magic power has run out.

At the level of the Archmage, it takes a long time to relieve the depletion of mana. So, Gabain was desperately hiding the fact that he was depleted of mana.

However, Kang Seung-hyeon saw through it as if showing off.

“He is a monster that even I cannot defeat! Watch your mouth!’

“You can’t beat the lady lord either?”

“To think he was such a strong adventurer…”

“I thought he had low magic power, but he was deliberately disguising himself to look low! Scary bastard!”

Hearing that, the wizards also shuddered.

If he was stronger than Lord Gabain, no magician in Kamar would be able to defeat him.

“This has cost some money, but it’s not a big deal considering it’s for Camar’s safety.”

“Your lord is right!”

“It’s better than turning such a strong person into an enemy!”

“Okay, let’s go back. Because we need to prepare a closed barrier.”

Saying this, Gabain looked at Lake Pitsta. In the distance, he saw the boat carrying Seunghyeon Kang going away.

If all goes well, you’ll arrive at the Red Forest in no time.
