How to Live as an Illegal Healer

398. Looking for someone

“Come out of the white coat right now!”

As I followed Jiah Lee to the main entrance of the arena, a man was causing a commotion.

“Are you a customer who lost money in our arena? How much did you lose?”

“No, this is my first guest today…”

“Then did you come to play after hearing the rumors?”

“He’s someone we know.”

“Acquaintance?”

As I got closer, I saw a familiar figure handling Lee Ji-ah’s alter ego with quick and nimble fists.

“huh? Wasn’t that the guru then?”

“Hey, have you been drinking?”

The guru wearing a black mask announced the start of the street arena last time.

He was making a fuss in front of the arena.

“The white gown you requested has arrived. What are you doing?”

flutter.

Kang Seung-hyun took out a white gown from his inventory and put it on and approached the black mask.

“To set up an arena like this openly in the city… Were you one of them too?”

“Do you mind?”

“Tell me the location of the Bonehound Underground Arena! hurry!”

“Now calm down!”

Perhaps there was some misunderstanding, the black mask went wild and tried to attack Kang Seung-hyeon, and Kim Ho-jung desperately tried to stop him.

‘Come to think of it, this guy tried to say something when he saw me last time.’

The underground arena is an illegal arena that allows injuries beyond the healing range of healers as well as killing people.

Of course, it is a forbidden facility, but since there are wealthy garbage aristocrats who like stimulating elements, it exists secretly.

‘Do you think I’m involved in the street fighting arena because I’ve been around?’

It seemed that the black mask mistook itself for someone who ran an underground arena.

“Hey, I’m proudly earning money legally, right?”

“legal…?”

“This was set up with permission from the lord. It has nothing to do with the underground arena.”

“But I heard that it’s an arena with crazy rules where everything is OK as long as you don’t kill a player, even if they blow off their limbs, break their heads, shake off corn, or burst their intestines, right?”

Certainly, if you listened to the explanation, it was almost no different from the underground arena.

“Because I can fix everything.”

“what?”

“If you don’t believe me, I’ve attached a permanent resident permit over there, so check it out.”

“Oh, he went home early and didn’t see the teacher treating him.”

“If you saw it, you wouldn’t be able to say that.”

Except for the fact that the operator is Kang Seung-hyun, a wild healer.

“Really….”

The black mask, which had been absent-mindedly, went inside and saw the lord’s permit.

“Uh uh… I’m sorry. I didn’t know it was a legal facility.”

He hurriedly left with a reddened face.

“If you’re sorry, why don’t you go play? The last time I saw you, you looked good. Will I be able to earn a lot?”

“…I’m a bit busy right now.”

“Are there any colleagues you’re looking for?”

Kim Ho-jung, who was next to him, opened his mouth with a worried face.

“How?”

“It seemed like he had been walking alone since the last time I saw him…. Seeing that he asked for the location of the underground fighting arena this time, he seemed to have broken up with his colleague.”

“After all, the experience is different. I know people who are in the same situation because I lost a co-worker and went alone.”

“Are you sure you have to say that?”

Kim Ho-jeong cried a little.

“that’s right. I am looking for a colleague.”

The black mask sighed with a confused face, and Lee Ji-ah, who saw it, quickly brought a chair and a table.

“My name is Sim So-eun. As you can tell by the name, it’s a dimension mover. We’ve known each other since we lived in Korea, so we’ve been together ever since we came here.”

“Oh… how did you break up?”

“Kim hyung keeps saying that we broke up and broke up, so it seems like that friend broke up with his girlfriend.”

“Does that sound like that in this situation?”

Anyway, it is said that the two were looking for a way to return home, just like other dimension movers.

“Then, when I cleared the dungeon and escaped, I used the return scroll, but it ended up scattering because it had different coordinates.”

“Aigoo…”

“So? How did it go?”

As soon as he came to his senses, it was a black mask that set out to find his companions, but it is said that there was a large-scale attack by a criminal guild at the coordinates of the return scroll Sim So-eun used.

“It’s not easy to fight without recovering as soon as you escape from a dungeon, even if you’re a dimension mover.”

In the end, the news that the black mask arrived late heard was that many people had died and the survivors had been sold to an underground fighting arena.

“There are bad guys like that!”

“Kim Ho-jeong, there are actually a lot of bad guys in the world.”

“So while I was running around the guild, I heard that my comrades were in the underground arena of Beashub, so I came all the way here, but I don’t know where the arena is.”

“A place like that is not a facility that even a dimension mover can easily access without aristocratic connections.”

Thanks to this, the black mask has been wandering around this city for weeks.

He worked just enough not to starve, earning money for food, and spent all the rest of his time looking for an underground arena.

“You’ve worked hard… Is there anything we can do to help?”

“Thank you for your heart, but it won’t be easy for you guys to find out if it has nothing to do with the underground fighting arena…”

It was then.

“If that’s the case, leave it to Mr. Alec, the current detective.”

“…Detective?”

“Finding people is my specialty.”

Alec grinned and took out a map of the city of Beashvran and laid it out on the table.

“It’s starting again.”

“When did you buy the map of this town again?”

“Purchasing a map when arriving in a new place is a basic detective.”

“You bought it for fortune-telling.”

I forgot about it for a while, but Alec’s sub job is a fortune teller with blood.

The person concerned plays detective with it, claiming that his job is a detective.

Whirik.

Shaak!

Alec took out a knife, turned it lightly, and cut his palm as usual, making a cut.

bang!

Chow!

Then, without hesitation, he slammed the map down.

“It’s really uncomfortable to see at any time.”

“…Is that a fortune teller?”

Kim Ho-jeong hated it and the black mask made her face frown.

Due to the nature of Alec’s divination, whenever he casts a fortune, blood splatters in all directions, so the visual is not very good.

“Fortune telling is quite useful.”

Performance was certain.

It was useful both when I was looking for Matiana in Hind Village and when I was researching on the Simua Rize.

‘At the time of the Seymua Rize, if I had stayed in my room, I would have arrived at Bismar Island in the same soundly asleep state as the other passengers, as Alec’s fortune told me.’

Alec said that he was good at research and exploration, and that he was not confident in other areas, but it was a fairly good ability that could avoid danger if interpreted well.

“I might not believe it because someone who claims to be a fortune teller is that kind of person.”

“It seems that the power of persuasion suddenly disappears.”

“You’re saying things that are rude in the first meeting.”

Alec smirked and looked at the bloody map and began to interpret it.

“Good good good. I got a fortune teller.”

“How did you get out?”

“I’m sure the person you’re looking for is in this city.”

“Is it really?”

Alec nodded, and the black mask exclaimed with a brightened face.

“So where are you now? I’ll give you any amount of money, so let me know!”

“Calm down and listen. It’s my rule to get money after work.”

Alec pointed his finger at the bloody map and explained.

“First of all, there are three places in the city where you can meet your girlfriend.”

“…not a girlfriend.”

“Back entrance of Beashbran Municipal Library, Number 1. No. 2 Beashbran Alleyway No. 4. 3 Beashbran Area F underground waterway.”

According to Alec’s divination, if the Black Mask is directed to any of these three locations, it will find its companions.

“From my point of view, one of these three seems to be the entrance to the illegal underground arena, and the other two seem to be related to the arena officials?”

“You mean you can go to the arena no matter where you choose.”

The easiest thing is to find the entrance to the underground arena right away, but even if it takes a little time, you can go to the underground arena by killing the officials, so there is nothing to lose.

“…step.”

Then Alec said, erasing his laughter.

“They all have the aura of death.”

“Aura of death?”

“Uh… you mean you’re going through hardships to the point of dying?”

Kim Ho-jung asked with a ray of hope.

“no? Are you really going to die?”

“What?”

Alec mercilessly trampled on Kim Ho-jung’s hopes.

“Explain in detail.”

“Of course, it doesn’t mean that Kwon will die unconditionally. If you go to the back gate of the city library, Mr. Kwon lives there, but the girlfriend he is looking for dies.”

“Then, only the minefields that must be avoided in the library?”

“Because I’m not your girlfriend…”

the black mask asked with a sigh.

“So, which route is So-eun safe? Wouldn’t you rather say no?”

Alec pointed his finger at the culvert.

“If you go to the underground waterway, your girlfriend will survive.”

“Then we can go to the underground canal!”

“But if we go this way, Kwon will surely die.”

“what!!! Shouldn’t you be going this way too?”

“Isn’t it the ending of sacrificing your own life while saving your girlfriend? Such fortune-telling.”

“No matter what you choose, someone will die! Is there any option to buy both of them?…”

Kim Ho-jeong, with a face about to cry, pointed to the alleyway to the last place, Beashbran No. 4.

“Oh, I can buy both of them if I go there.”

“what! Then I’ll tell you sooner!”

“But if we go that way, we could both die.”

In other words, the alleyway on Route 4 is an extreme option in which two people survive or two people die with a 50% chance.

“I don’t know what will happen. People’s future is not my major.”

Anyway, Alec’s fortune telling was about how the black mask found ♡♡, so the fortune telling itself was a success.

It’s a problem because there’s a high possibility that you’ll die the moment you meet.

“Then you have decided where to go. thanks for letting me know.”

“Where are you going? As expected, the alleyway of Route 4?”

“Of course it’s underground water.”

The black mask replied in a firm voice.

“Oh, are you surprised? Of course, I thought you would choose the option to buy both with a 50% chance.”

“A 50% chance is too low. If both are going to die, it’s better to be sure to save at least one of them.”

The black mask seemed intent on saving his comrades safely, even at the risk of his own life.

‘I don’t care if I die, but it won’t be this person.’

Kim Ho-jung looked at the black mask with a confused face.

You can’t just let someone go to die, but if you were in the same situation, you would have chosen the underground waterway without hesitation.

“I will help too! Let’s go to Route 4!”

In the end, Kim Ho-jeong, who was worried, got up from her seat.

Because he was such a good person, he couldn’t let this happen.

“Of course, it won’t help much, but it’s better than going alone…”

“Thank you for your heart, but I think two to three people will die, so I’ll go alone.”

“Is it certain that the three of them will die?”

Of course, Kim Ho-jung can be resurrected even if he dies, so the ending would be that the two die.

“I’ve been thinking about it.”

At that time, Kang Seung-hyun, who had been silent all along, opened his mouth.

“Is it really necessary to follow fortune telling? After all, you just need to figure out how to get to the underground arena.”

“That’s true, but I couldn’t find a single clue when I searched the city by myself.”

“I have a great idea. It’s a safer method even if it takes longer than Alec’s fortune telling.”

“Is there a way?”

The black mask shouted with a surprised face.

“Instead, there are conditions.”

“condition?”

Kang Seung-hyun took out the contract from his inventory as if he had been waiting for that response.

“It will take some time to prepare, so until then, work in our arena. Unpaid, of course.”

“….”

“And I will also cooperate, so if I succeed in rescuing my colleague, I will live in Hind Village and work as a bodyguard at the Healer Agency. This is paid.”

A man who always carries a slave contract.

That is Kang Seung-hyun.

“…if only I could get it.”

“Wow, you do that.”

square square.

I risked my life, but can’t I risk human rights?

The black mask signed silently.

“Is it true that there is a teacher method?”

“yes. I thought about it while listening to the story…”

Kang Seung-hyun smirked and opened his mouth.

“Do we really need to go looking for it? We can make it come from the other side.”

“You’re making me come?”
