How to Live as an Illegal Healer

Chapter 37



37. Guys who know a little bit

A little later, the priests of the Iver Church who received a call from the Adventurer’s Guild arrived at the camp.

“What the hell is this…!”

“God…”

The priests of the church who headed north of the camp looked around and were shocked.

Terrible black magic emanating from all directions. The decayed and shattered corpses of Belloto Sangae, resurrected again and again.

And even a mountain of hideous corpses.

“Wow…!”

One of the Adventurers Guild employees couldn’t stand it and threw up on the floor.

“Dirty and unpleasant…”

“Revolting and evil undead guys!”

“How many lives have you sacrificed?”

The priests frowned as if they were used to this kind of thing, but they didn’t vomit.

Fire.

Kang Seung-hyun, who was resting by the campfire, stood up when the priests approached.

‘Oh, I’m tired… The priests will take care of themselves. I’m going to bed.’

Kim Ho-jeong said this earlier and went to sleep with a strange pillow. So, the only person who could explain this incident was Kang Seung-hyun.

“What a terrible sight.”

The man who looked the tallest among the priests opened his mouth.

“My name is Karnil Asholo, a priest belonging to the Hind village branch of the Church of Ayber.”

His name is Carnil Asholo. He was the head priest who led the priests dispatched this time.

‘I’m advertising with my whole body as a priest.’

As he approached, he felt tremendous divine power in his body. Divine power flowed from the bodies of other priests, but the priest who radiated the most powerful divine power was Carnil.

‘Because he is the head of a group that leads numerous priests, he must have that much divine power.’

It seemed like they had sent a big-name person from the Ayver Church. That means this is serious.

‘Still, it’s nothing compared to Priest Huis.’

Kang Seung-hyun thought as he listened to Carnil’s greeting.

“Here is the adventurer who defeated the rare undead monster.”

Basello introduced Kang Seung-hyeon to Priest Carnil.

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

Kang Seung-hyeon, as always, smiled and approached the priests. Then, the faces of the priests, including Carnil, hardened.

“Is that Kang Seung-hyun?”

“Is that Kang Seung-hyun? A wild bastard?”

“That bastard!”

All kinds of grumbling leaked out from the group of priests.

They are all religious priests who eat and sleep at the Hind village church. There was no way he didn’t know Kang Seung-hyeon, who stayed in Hind Village and robbed priests and healers.

“You don’t even know how to heal, but you’re a healer and you’re the one who installs!”

“Damn it… Why is it him…”

“When I see him, I get scared… I don’t know what he might do

… ”

Some of these priests had been humiliated by Kang Seung-hyeon. They glared at Kang Seung-hyun with shameful faces.

“The author is that Kang Seung-hyun.”

“A subject without divine power… a healer who heals people.”

“They say it’s a monster with a human skin on it, but compared to the rumors, it looks normal.”

Even the priests who saw Kang Seung-hyeon for the first time all had wary faces. Because he was such a well-known person.

“quiet! Be quiet everyone!”

When the priests couldn’t keep their composure and started talking loudly, Carnil opened his mouth.

“Sorry. Priest Carnil!”

The priests immediately bowed their heads and apologized.

‘This man is the healer who fed the highest priest of the Ayver Church.’

This is also the first time Carnil has met Kang Seung-hyun in person. However, he knew about Kang Seung-hyeon from other priests. Of course, there were no good feelings.

“You are the Kang Seung-hyeon that Priest Heis talked about.”

“Heys? Ah yes. The wandering priest I met last time? I am quite close with that priest.”

Kang Seung-hyun naturally responded.

Of course, no one really believed it. It was a well-known story that he watered Huis, one of the highest-ranking priests.

“…I speak on behalf of the Hind village branch of the Church of Ayber.”

But Carnil didn’t say anything and lowered his head.

“I sincerely thank you for your hard work in finding the corrupted being and defeating it after a lonely battle.”

“Thank you very much.”

“Thank you.”

When Priest Carnil thanked them, the other priests also bowed their heads.

‘Are you surprised? I thought they would make a fuss about taking their work.’

Everyone was sincerely grateful to Kang Seung-hyun. Although some gritted it.

“An undead monster. It is also a rare monster that uses necromancy. There would have been many more victims if we hadn’t stopped them.”

The Church of Ayber had many complaints about Kang Seung-hyeon, but more than that, they highly valued this achievement. If it wasn’t for him, a really big accident would have happened.

“We have come to express our gratitude on behalf of the Hind Village as well as the Ayver Church.”

“I just did what I had to do.”

Seunghyun Kang said with a smile.

“Because I am a great healer who cannot tolerate evil undead.”

Before he could finish his words, tendons sprouted from the faces of several priests.

‘That’s… a con man… I know he doesn’t care much about the undead!’

‘If you pay, you’ll even heal the undead!’

‘A guy who doesn’t have as much faith as an ant’s tears!’

As he said, Kang Seung-hyun has no feelings for the undead. It was just a voice telling the priests of the Iver Church to get mad.

‘But I can’t help it…’

‘It’s frustrating, but it’s true that he defeated him.’

‘shit! Why is he so strong when his faith is low!’

The priests wanted to argue right away, but kept their mouths shut. No matter what, Kang Seung-hyeon was a hero who defeated the terrible undead and protected the village.

“To think that the beautiful Veloto Mountains are being polluted with dark magic. It is impossible.”

Priest Carnil looked around and said. It seemed that the priests who possessed divine power had a great repulsion.

For Kang Seung-hyun, it was black magic or magical power, but that was it.

“From now on, this area will be taken over by the Church of Iver.”

“Cheer up.”

It is up to the priests to purify the land polluted by the undead. Carnil ordered the priests.

“Team 1 purifies the dark magic of this area. Team 2 split up and search the area. There may be undead remaining. Team 3 to carry the body to camp. Team 4, collect the contaminated bodies and incinerate them.”

“All right!”

All at once, the priests dispersed to carry out their duties. The words are grandiose, but in the end, this is an afterthought.

“Holy flame!”

The priests gathered the scattered corpses of Bellotto Sangae in one place. Then, the body was incinerated using a divine skill.

Roaring!

The flames filled with divine power burned the corpse and black magic at the same time. The light from the process was really beautiful.

“Oh… It’s the first time I’ve seen undead incineration, so it’s cool.”

Manager Barcelo muttered.

“A corpse that has turned into an undead can come back to life if not properly incinerated.”

“So incinerating the body is an important task.”

The priests incinerated the corpse and said. This is because there is a possibility of resurrection if dark magic remains in the corpse.

‘This is also a kind of campfire in a way.’

The flower of camp is, of course, the campfire. Kang Seung-hyun watched the divine fireworks show. It was a perfect campfire, except that what was burning was the corpse of a wild dog.

“Kang Seung-hyun.”

“yes.”

While watching the fireworks show for a while, Priest Carnil approached.

“I heard that you brought the corpse of a rare undead monster. Can I take a look?”

“This guy?”

Kang Seung-hyeon showed off the rare Velotto spread he had taken earlier.

A corpse that is rotten in places and gives off a foul stench. It was a state that could not be said to be good even with empty words.

“It’s really nasty.”

Priest Carnil frowned and muttered.

‘It smells bad, but that’s not what I’m talking about.’

It seems to be referring to the dark magic that emanates from the corpse.

This guy is a wild beast and at the same time a necromancer who uses necromancy.

“How did a guy like this appear in a peaceful and quiet mountain?”

Carnil, who was examining the corpse carefully, opened his mouth.

“Would you like to leave this guy to us, Seunghyun Kang?”

“This one?”

“I want to take the body to the church to examine it.”

A lot of information can be obtained by examining the corpse. For example, whether this corpse is a naturally occurring undead or an artificially created undead by a necromancer.

Priest Carnil wanted to investigate it.

“Of course, I’m not going to take it for free. Bring what has been prepared there.”

At Carnil’s command, a priest brought a box emitting holy energy. There was also a pattern unique to the Iver Church.

“If you hand over the corpse, I will pay for it with the holy water made by the Church of Iver.”

“Holy water?”

holy water.

A special potion made by placing clean water on top and praying or giving a holy blessing. It is an item that cannot be made unless you are a priest because it requires a tremendous amount of holy power.

“An item containing powerful divine power that can chase away evil powers.”

Carnil opened the box he brought. Inside was a potion of holy water. Unusually, the color of the holy water was a soft light purple reminiscent of the dawn.

“Isn’t normal holy water a transparent color?”

“This is a slightly special holy water called the Holy Water of Dawn.”

“The Holy Water of Dawn!? That precious thing?”

Basello, who was next to him, muttered with his mouth wide open. Holy Water of Dawn is a rare holy water that can only be made around dawn before morning.

“That’s right. The Holy Water of Dawn is made by placing clear, clean water containing the energy of dawn on an altar and praying for one year. It is an item that requires much more effort and faith than ordinary holy water.”

The Holy Water of Dawn contains powerful divine power that is incomparable to normal holy water.

“With this one bottle, you can purify hundreds and thousands of undead, and even if you put it in the bottle, holy power will come out and drive out the evil ones.”

As such, the Holy Water of Dawn was priceless as it was difficult to make. Even if you give them billions of dollars, they won’t sell it to just anyone.

‘Honestly, I thought this was a bit of a loss… I’m getting something like this from here.’

The corpses of rare monsters are useless. But exchange such useless garbage for holy water that cannot be bought even with hundreds of millions of dollars?

“Do the members of the church know something?”

There is nothing to worry about. Seunghyun Kang handed over the body of the rare monster.

“thank you. If I find out something, I will also tell Kang Seung-hyun.”

Priest Carnil returned to the church with the corpse of Rare Belloto Mountain. The holy water of dawn was held in Kang Seung-hyeon’s hand.

‘Well, how do I do this?’

Kang Seung-hyun looked at the holy water of dawn. Just holding it, I can feel the powerful divine power. If you say you’re selling, people will come to buy.

“Ah, Seunghyun Kang! Are you okay now?”

Then, Barcelo came over and started talking. He seemed to have something to say.
