Episode 58. The healer goes to the desert. (Sujeong)
58. The healer heads to the desert.
“Then I’ll go in.”
He waved his hand at the entrance of the dungeon he arrived at. Behind them, the association’s hunters and staff were waiting.
This is because it was judged that it was more appropriate for a talented hunter to enter in a small group than to enter from several people. Also, I had to leave the rest of the staff behind just in case something unexpected happened.
In the end, only me, Chae-eun Yoo, and Mapil-doo decided to enter together. To be honest, I have to say it’s a little awkward.
I was a little anxious.
Why is Kang Ga-young popping out all of a sudden?
In fact, if you want to clear it, you have no choice but to meet. It is difficult for me to fall into such a high-risk dungeon.
“Ha ha. A little hot, no, a lot hot. Is Seo-joon’s brother okay?”
Mafildo wiped the sweat from his forehead with his muscular arm. I nodded and exhaled.
“It’s really hot. I thought I’d bring some more water. How about Chae-eun?”
“Huh. I’m OK.”
Yoo Chae-eun barely opened her grimacing expression. Personally, I dislike hot rather than cold, so I could understand.
After all, it’s a dungeon in this hot desert terrain. I really hate it.
If it was cold, the thought that she could have heated the surroundings with her ‘Phoenix’ skill flashed through her. Isn’t that a bit
We moved our legs hard. Then, a green figure appeared in front of my eyes.
“Is that a tree?”
I pointed my finger at something far away. As I got closer, it wasn’t like a tree, but it was nice to see something green on the sand like this.
“oh. Seo-jun, that’s a cactus monster.”
Yoo Chae-eun quickly aimed the bow. Mafildo also looked at them with a tense power.
If you look closely, you can see sharp thorns sticking out. Even if I hugged her once, it seemed that no body would remain.
“It’s okay as long as you don’t get close. He is a monster that is already well known as a material.”
“But why are you so nervous?”
I was also poised so that I could swing my hand at any time. Then something dark auburn color appeared from the sand.
“Ugh-!”
A scorpion with a body size of 1.5 m appeared. Strong claws and strong tail. It looks like it will shoot poison at us right now.
“Is it possible that such a scorpion does not even exist in modern times?”
Then I think it would be a little creepy.
“It’s not like that, so don’t worry. Although it is called ‘Giant Great Swordsman’, it is not as strong as it looks.”
I was worried about what to do if I saw such insect monsters while entering the dungeon in the future. Even if it’s small, it’s difficult when a large bug appears as a monster.
It looks like it has eight legs, so it has a lot of eyes. It’s a creepy visual that I don’t even want to meet.
“It looks very stiff.”
After looking at the shell once, he looked at Mafildo’s fist. Then the muscular man snorts.
“haha. Seo-joon’s younger brother, are you disappointed? Let me show you right now!!”
Mafildoo ran quickly and inserted the ‘Shipwind Fist’ into the scorpion monster’s shell. It seemed to have an effect, and he wags his tail back and forth in agony. It then spews out dark green poison.
Whirlik-!
I used the ‘Purification Light’ towards the stinger I was exhaling. In this way, Mafildo would be much more comfortable to deal with.
“Seo-jun sibling, it’s good to relax, but wouldn’t it be better to finish it quickly?”
“Seojun, I’ll just match that.”
There was a nuance that Mapildoo asked him to subtly spray a buff. Yoo Chae-eun muttered next to her as if not to forget herself.
I put ‘Holy Faith’ on Mapildu, who was running towards the giant scorpion monster. A faint purple light shone from his fists and legs.
“Ha ha!”
Mafildo jumped into the air. And quickly his legs came down. A powerful kick and gust kick hit the body of the scorpion monster precisely.
Aww, G-Jik!
As it was, the body of the scorpion monster broke and fell. I closed my eyes and covered my nose and mouth to the sudden sand smoke.
“Hey. Also awesome?! This feeling of fullness revolving around my body, haha. Are you so satisfied?!”
As if feeling good, he runs to me and caresses my shoulder. And he asks with a low voice.
“Seo-Jun’s younger brother, is it possible to get rid of hair loss with the ‘treatment’ skill?”
“… So, shall we try it outside?”
A human voice was heard as he was afraid to bring out the words of Mapildoo, ‘Why don’t you try it right now?’ His disturbed eyes shone sharply.
“who are you?!”
“Oh my gosh. Killing that monster so quickly with such a small number of people… .”
Those who appear to be soldiers are standing with weak-looking spears and swords. We stared at them blankly.
“Isn’t it possible that they came from headquarters?”
“Shh. speak quietly But I think I saw her attire somewhere.”
Honestly, I hear it all. it’s clothes
Fortunately, he doesn’t seem to be very wary of us as strangers. It will soon be dark for me too, and I’d rather be fine.
“Hey.”
“yes?!”
As I speak, one of them twitches and responds. are you a newbie? It was funny to pause and be alert.
⁕⁕⁕
“Indeed, they were from headquarters. I look forward to seeing you again this time.”
He smiles as if he’s staring at him. We entered the village and looked around with troubled hearts.
I don’t know if it was because of the sandstorm, but most people covered their bodies with cloth. Even the poor begging could be seen as they walked.
“You don’t have to worry about your surroundings.”
Read from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Naked little children stare at them with pitying eyes. The moment Yoo Chae-eun tries to take food out of her bag as if she can’t stand it.
“Can’t these guys be turned off right now?!”
The children run away urgently at the threatening voice of the soldier. I was also startled by the sudden voice.
“Wait. You don’t have to do that.”
Yoo Chae-eun was angry and said to the soldier. Because there was compassion in her eyes.
“ha. Madam, then you’re pickpocketed. How many times have we been hit?”
“… Your wife?”
Yoo Chae-eun quickly relaxed her expression and muttered. Some were surprised that these seemingly innocent children commit crimes.
“Large. But where are you going now?”
He coughed and asked if Mapildu had swallowed the sand. The soldier who guided us pointed a finger somewhere.
“At this time, it is closed and you cannot enter ‘through the iron bars’. It will open tomorrow morning.”
Obviously, the atmosphere and environment itself were very different from the place he pointed out. Right now, there were trees growing sparsely, and the buildings and sidewalks were neat.
It’s like their own world.
“Then what should I do?”
I believe I didn’t bring you all the way here to say that. I looked at them with disappointment.
“Don’t worry. I will guide you to the best inn here. So please take a look… .”
“Don’t worry about that. The name?”
“Adam, it’s Adam!”
“I am Jacques. Please pass on my name to the upper level… .”
We arrived at the inn with their guidance. Even though they were all old buildings, they were the best inns.
Still, since you brought me all the way here, I wanted to say something in return. He handed me two plastic bottles filled with water to say that even the neck was damp. In case you don’t know, I took the lid off and handed it over.
“Is this water? These precious things are really welcomed by people from headquarters.”
“It looks so clear and clean. Can we really take it?”
Their eyes were round. Since it is a desert terrain, water may be precious.
“Seojun, shall we go in then?”
After leaving their smiles behind, we entered the old building. Even when the door was opened, they were still standing reverently in a salute posture.
⁕⁕⁕
Compared to the outside, the inside was pretty clean. It was assumed that the first floor was used as a restaurant and the second floor was used for accommodation.
“welcome. Could you please sit there and wait for me?”
A middle-aged woman, who appears to be the owner, seemed to be busy dealing with other guests. We roughly set up a table and sat down.
There were quite a lot of people. That’s why it was difficult to have a conversation with the loud voices. He was bored of waiting, so he pricked his ears and pretended not to see.
“Hey, did you hear that?”
“I heard it too. You said people in the slums these days are starting to disappear for no reason?”
Then a man beat his chest as if frustrated. Immediately, an excited voice was heard.
“okay. And the fact that the number of monsters has decreased. But that’s not what I’m talking about.”
“Then what? Come on tell me.”
“The rumors that the owner of the mansion that dominates this area has changed.”
“iced coffee. She’s a huge beauty. Did I say he was from the eastern continent?”
My heart pounded when I heard the words of the hostess of the mansion, a great beauty, and the eastern continent. While contemplating whether or not to continue listening to this story, their conversation began again.
“Isn’t it strange that the number of missing people has significantly decreased these days?”
“Uh-huh. this person? Don’t say anything. I’m afraid someone might hear it. More than that, Sarah’s birthday celebration… .”
But this could not be overheard. It was because the hostess, who had finished her work, came to us.
“Aww. Did you wait a long time? It’s crowded these days because of the festival. I’m sorry about your room, how about it?”
“no. it’s okay.”
Yoo Chae-eun waved her hands saying it was okay. The hostess, who looked at him with satisfaction, smirked.
“Aww. Your wife is really nice. If that’s the case, even if you eat first, mamma!!”
The mistress’s gaze stopped on Mapildo. The look on his face, as if in surprise, contained a hint of shyness.
“Well, once. I’m going to make a room, so wait a minute. Don’t ever go out because this is the best place around here. got it? yes?!”
The hostess went up the stairs thumping, and after a while, the men with thick beards grumbled and went out the door.
“Come on up. yes?!”
We crawled up to where she was leading. The mistress’s gaze was fixed by the strong arm muscles of Mapildu.
Whether Mapildu was uncomfortable or embarrassed, he whispered into my ear. Because of Yoo Chae-eun’s eyes, I cringed a little.
“Hmmm. Seo-joon’s little brother, this isn’t too burdensome.”
“Well, how are you? Both were exhausted. I’ll keep it a secret from Na-yoon’s noona.”
The room the hostess showed us was relatively luxurious. There was a sofa, and the bedroom was divided. Of course, I couldn’t say it was in good condition.
“thank you.”
“Then have a good rest.”
The hostess hesitates as she grabs the doorknob as if regretting it. I immediately winked at someone behind me and wiped my lips with my tongue.
Whoa. Pildo hyung, stay strong.
