How to Live as an Illegal Healer

Chapter 83



83. Irony Mutation 4

Perk!

A flying harpoon arrow pierced the rare fishman’s head.

[Critical!]

As the critical hit, Rare Fishman’s head was mercilessly crushed.

“Rurruk…ruruk…”

The guy stopped moving after making a cry that I didn’t know if it was a will or not.

Chow.

When the rare monsters were defeated, the [sense of intimidation] that spread around them disappeared.

‘How did he knock it down?’

Seunghyun Kang looked around. There was only a corpse of a dead fisherman, but no fisherman was alive.

‘Looks like this guy was the last one.’

The rest of the fishermen seem to be quietly picking at the bottom of the lake.

‘It doesn’t seem like there’s a fisherman to jump on, so I’ll have to get the ingredients and go up on the water.’

Kang Seung-hyun approached the fisherman.

The blood that flowed from the body of the dead fishman spread into the water of the lake.

‘It’s diluted in water, but drinking fishman’s blood is not good for the body.’

You won’t become a fishman by drinking something like this, but you’ll likely end up gagging or vomiting.

‘Basically, fish-man’s blood is not compatible with humans.’

For this reason, fish man carcasses are not edible. It also has no taste.

‘Even though it’s a failure, it’s fortunate that it has a cure.’

Even if it is not possible to cure the fish-man’s mutation due to a failed treatment, it can slightly weaken the fish-man’s blood toxicity.

[Freeah’s bond pouch]

[Generates an arrow of an unsuccessful anti-fish remedy.]

Kang Seung-hyun inserted the arrow of an unsuccessful anti-fish remedy into his own body.

It’s like using Freea’s crossbow like a syringe.

‘This is done now. Shall we check the potion effect first…’

Kang Seung-hyun checked the status window.

[Wind potion effect]

[Air attribute enhancement +25%]

[Remaining time 1 minute 05 seconds]

Currently, you can last about 1 minute underwater.

There are 3 wind potions left in the inventory.

‘It’s 3 minutes per bottle… 10 minutes should be fine.’

I think this should be enough. Kang Seung-hyun used a knife to dismember the body of a fish man.

[Acquisition of the fish man’s liver!]

[Slightly disappointing grade B.]

[A grade without any damage.]

‘A few failed, but this is enough.’

With this, the preparation for the anti-fish mutation cure is complete.

‘Finally… rare artifacts that rare monsters have.’

Upon examining the body of the rare fisherman, he found a blue bead resembling Pitchta Lake.

‘Here he was.’

A substance that allows monsters to gain tremendous power and humans to obtain powerful items.

It is an artifact possessed by rare monsters.

‘It’s a pity that I can’t just use it because I don’t have the Artifact Appraisal skill.’

I guess I’ll have to go find a relic appraiser.

Kang Seung-hyeon put the artifact in his inventory.

‘I want to investigate a bit more, but it’s probably going to take more time.’

Now, breathing time is running out, and the patient is waiting upstairs.

‘Let’s go up.’

Seunghyun Kang swam over the lake.

-with a splash!!

“Puha!”

Kang Seung-hyun spewed water and came up to the surface.

I feel like I’ve been in the water for less than an hour, but I’ve missed breathing air so much.

“People have to live by stepping on the ground…”

“Mr. Kang!”

“Healer Kang Seung-hyun! Are you okay?”

As Kang Seung-hyeon swam to the shore, Kim Ho-jeong and soldiers rushed towards him.

Because he waited impatiently for his return.

“It’s a bit late, so I wondered if something happened. Since it’s Teacher Kang, it won’t be a big deal.”

“it’s okay. It’s just that it’s a bit late to deal with rare monsters that have appeared.”

“A rare monster?”

Upon hearing Kang Seung-hyeon’s words, the Kamar soldiers were shocked.

That’s because rare monsters are so powerful that at least 3-4 people need to gather to defeat them.

‘It’s not like I’ve hunted rare monsters once or twice…’

To a dimension mover with accumulated skills and experience, rare monsters are just miscellaneous mobs that spit out artifacts.

“It wasn’t enough to deal with a fishman underwater, but a rare fishman…” “As expected,

a wizard who hid his power…” “

On the water, Camar’s mana was blocked for her safety… Then, underwater, her mana was cut off. You unlocked it!”

The soldiers sent eyes of respect.

It seems like a big misunderstanding, but Kang Seung-hyun decided not to correct it.

“Oh, you must have had a hard time. It would have been annoying.”

“It’s better than zombies and rare monsters.”

No matter how hard a rare monster is, it’s better than one that resurrects the dead.

Chew!

Kang Seung-hyun wiped off the moisture from his body and approached the patient. Thanks to Kim Ho-jung’s good care, the carpet was safe.

“Are you feeling well?”

“Yeah… I’m still fine.”

The soldier nodded and said.

As if the effect of the failed treatment had run out, the scales were growing again on the patient’s arm.

“I will produce it right away, so please wait a little longer.”

Kang Seung-hyeon immediately took out the fish man’s liver.

Potion production depends on the condition of the ingredients.

‘If you use fresh liver collected from the water, you can make the best medicine.’

As I started mixing the liver and other ingredients, it turned into a sticky, thick liquid.

‘At this time, if the rotten liver is used, the liquid turns black and becomes a failure…’ However, if a

fresh liver is used, a proper treatment that emits a gray light is born.

‘It was good.’

Kang Seung-hyun looked at the finished cure.

Due to the effect of [Golden Hand], dexterity increased and an excellent cure was created.

“It is finished.”

Kang Seung-hyun showed an ironic cure.

“You really made a cure!”

“Oh my God… are you a healer, a wizard, and even a pharmacist?”

“It wouldn’t be easy for a wizard to create a cure like this.”

“You are such a wonderful person.”

The soldiers, not knowing that Kang Seung-hyun was a wild healer, admired him, mistaking him for a magician who was also good at making potions.

“Sir, I will definitely repay this favor…!”

The patient who saw the cure cried out in tears.

“It’s grace, get well soon, and take good care of Kamarna.”

Now that there are no barriers, the only way to protect Camar is with soldiers and adventurers.

‘If we fight, there might be more ironic mutant patients.’

You never know when the fish man will attack again. If you are in a city near the Pittsta fish habitat, you should stock up on plenty of remedies.

‘First of all, there are plenty of ingredients, so I’ll work hard and send the rest to the Kamar government office…’

Kang Seung-hyun was about to hand the cure to the patient.

“wait! wait!”

“We’ll give you a cure too!”

People who suddenly appeared shouted and approached.

“What about those guys?”

“They are citizens of Camar.”

They were the citizens of Camar who had been asking to be allowed to cross the lake earlier.

[Eye of Observation]

I immediately used the [Eye of Observation] to scan them, but they did not show signs of ironic mutation.

“You are fine. There are no injuries.”

“We were attacked by fishmen earlier too!”

“I might become a fish man, so give me a cure!”

As expected of those who had been telling the truth, they started to tell the truth to the end.

Citizens demanded an ironic cure even though they were not hurt.

He was seized by the fear that he might become a fish man.

“Shouldn’t we prioritize citizens like us over soldiers like this!”

“Give us a cure right now!”

It is true that they were attacked by fishmen, but thanks to the desperate defense of the soldiers in front of them, they survived without any injuries.

“What? Among them are the nobles of the city of Camar.”

The boss said with a troubled face. Ordinary citizens would try to endure it somehow, but it would be difficult to ignore the demands of nobles.

‘But if I give them medicine… there won’t be any spare medicine left.’

These remedies are prepared for emergency patients, not for cowards like that.

‘In the first place, those humans made a fuss to cross the lake, so the fishmen attacked them.’

It’s like the people of the city of wizards.

It’s as shameless as Healer.

‘Then I can go out shamelessly.’

Kang Seung-hyun said while taking out the medicine with a smile.

“An anti-fish mutation cure. I will give it to you if you need it.”

“From me! Give me first!”

“No, from me!”

People asked for it, each to himself.

“400,000 gold per spoon.”

“4.4 million gold? on a spoonful?”

“What are you talking about!”

To cure a disease, you must drink at least one bottle.

However, 400,000 gold for a spoon means millions of gold for a bottle of medicine.

“Don’t like the price? Then 500,000 gold per spoon.”

“500,000 gold? They said it was 400,000 before…”

“600,000 gold.”

“What?”

“700,000.”

In less than a minute, the price of a spoonful of medicine soared to 1 million gold.

“Isn’t the price too high?”

“It’s not like I can’t pay for that! That’s not right!”

“If you want to be expensive, you can go into the lake and get the ingredients yourself.”

Right now, there is no one in Camar except Kang Seung-hyun to make an ironic cure.

It’s not easy to get the materials.

“It’s up to me how much to sell this for.”

Even if you can get the ingredients, making an ironic cure is also not something anyone can do.

“Of course, if you bring the materials, I will charge you the cost of making the cure. One… 5 million gold?”

“Look! Isn’t that too much?”

“I know what the situation is like in Camar right now!”

“Trying to make money from the crisis in Kamar!”

Naturally, the citizens of Camar were in an uproar.

Kang Seung-hyun calmed the excited people and said.

“Everyone calm down. We plan to supply it for free to patients who show symptoms.”

“I think I have symptoms!”

“I am in a hurry! I feel like I’m going to become a fish man right now…”

The citizens of Kamar raised their hands and shouted that they were more seriously ill. Seunghyun Kang looked at the people and said.

“I don’t know if I have symptoms or not. So… eat this.”

“that?”

“It is fresh fishman blood.”

Seunghyun Kang took out a bottle from his inventory.

The fishman’s blood used to make the cure.

“If you inject fish man blood into a human body, your body will slowly transform into a fish man.”

Seunghyun Kang pointed to the bottle and said.

“So, the person who drinks this is a patient with confirmed mutation. We will give you the cure for free.”

“Uh, to drink fishman’s blood?”

“The blood that turns you into a fish-man if you drink it?”

Citizens hesitantly withdrew with frightened faces.

‘Ho what if the cure doesn’t work?’

‘What if I ate most of it and didn’t get the cure?’

‘You can ask for more money than now…’

Even if you give a cure that is ironic at best, you will become a fish man, so you seem to be afraid.

“Now, who would like to eat first?”

Kang Seung-hyun smiled and approached the people.

“I am, I am.”

“Old man there! I think you said that the cure is urgent, so hurry up and take it.”

“no! Come to think of it, my body seems fine!”

The gathered people started to run away.

Everyone said they were fine.

‘I can’t believe he’s kicking out those stubborn people.’

That’s how Kang Seung-hyun got rid of the fake patients without resorting to violence.

The head soldier said with an admiring face.

“You are truly amazing.”

“Because I specialize in dealing with customers.”

He must have kicked out the thugs as well. Kang Seung-hyun approached the real patient.

‘If I delay here, even my brain will turn into a fish man.’

Now, the patient’s body was showing signs of mutation not only in the arms but also in the legs, including the shoulders and chest.

“It took some time. This is the half-fish cure you asked for.”

“thank you sir!”

The soldier was delighted and drank the cure. As he drank the medicine, the mutated body began to regain its original form.

The hard scales that had sprouted on her arms melted away, and the bluish-colored skin returned to its original color.

“If it wasn’t for Healer-sama… something truly terrible would have happened. To think that humans cease to be human…”

The chief soldier bowed his head in greeting.

“There is a possibility that soldiers from other places also confronted fishmen.”

The soldiers south of the lake were lucky to meet Kang Seung-hyeon, but the soldiers in other places do not know what happened.

“If you were also attacked by fishmen, it wouldn’t be a good situation.

“I’ll check right away!”

The head soldier immediately dispatched his subordinates.
