How to Live as an Illegal Healer

465. Disgust and fear

Faraaa!

The moment the light pierced the mist, the purple mist began to burn, enveloped in a silvery aura.

It was like a fire spreading.

{■■■■■■■!!!!!}

At the same time, an ear-piercing scream rang out, and the purple mist slowly dissipated.

thru.

After that, the fog that covered the space disappeared without a trace, and at the same time the [awe] that seemed to oppress the surrounding air also disappeared.

“They disappeared…”

[Achievement achieved!]

Puff!

Kim Ho-jeong sat down on the floor with a weak face.

It wasn’t like Alec or Min Soo-yeon was damaged by divine power, but it was the same that it was difficult to hold on to [awe] for a long time because my mental power was weaker than the two of them.

“Are you okay, Kim Ho-jung?”

“uh? Yeah… no.”

“Please tell me if it’s okay or not okay.”

“Then, since I’m still alive, I’ll do what’s good.”

Kim Ho-jung laughed helplessly and grabbed Kang Seung-hyun’s outstretched hand and stood up.

“I think it would be nice to have that mental recovery potion before, but…”

“I can’t take it out now.”

“It is true.”

“If it was that hard, you should have gone earlier.”

“But I’m sorry that I’m the only one going while Mr. Kang is fighting hard.”

“Oh you mean? Does that mean that the three people who ran away first are trash?”

“It’s not like that!”

“just joke.”

“I’m scared because Mr. Kang’s jokes are indistinguishable from serious conversations.”

Kim Ho-jung muttered with a face that was drained of energy and brushed off his crumpled robe.

“And I am a tank. Even if it doesn’t help much, you should stay until the end.”

“No, it helped me a lot.”

“huh? Didn’t you wipe it out without a chance to cheer for something in earnest?”

“That’s because this fight was easily won thanks to Mr. Kim Ho-jung.”

“Thanks to me?”

In fact, no matter how severely nerfed it is because it is in a dream, Ayver is the strongest god in Azul Continent at the moment.

Under normal circumstances, it would have been difficult to defeat him as easily as he is now.

Nevertheless, the reason why Kang Seung-hyeon was able to overwhelm him was because Ayver couldn’t stand up because he was afraid of the black beast that was mixed with Kim Ho-jeong here.

‘If I accidentally kill Kim Ho-jung, I’ll face the black beast.’

So, if Kim Ho-jeong had fled with the others, Iver would have been pressing Kang Seung-hyeon with stronger force, so it would have been impossible to defeat him without getting hurt like now.

“Because Kim Ho-jeong is a being that the gods hate. Just standing still is better than a fair amount of cheering.”

“I’m glad I was helpful, but somehow it’s sad…”

Kim Ho-jeong muttered with a sad face.

“I don’t think I did anything wrong to the gods. Why do you hate it so much?”

“Well… the feeling of hatred is based not only on simple anger, but also on the feeling of fear.”

“to? what?”

“…I’m afraid of Mr. Kim Ho-jung. the gods.”

“me? why?”

“To be precise, you are afraid of the [black beast] that Mr. Kim Ho-jung has.”

“Ah…”

Hearing that, Kim Ho-jung nodded slowly.

Currently, the [Black Beast] is in a very weak state compared to the active period for one reason or another, but apart from that, divine beings hate the very existence of the [Black Beast].

Just as humans feel disgust at the sight of disgusting things such as insects and corpses, it seems that gods like Aiber feel an unbearable disgust at the mere sight of a [black beast].

‘To put it in an analogy, Kim Ho-jeong is a wooden box from which the sound of bugs swarming inside can be heard constantly.’

Just by getting close to it, you can imagine what is inside, but how terrible it would be if it were ever opened.

That’s why they don’t want to even approach it, let alone touch it.

“I understand that because I’m scared too… but now I’m a human.”

“Now even a person can use it.”

“Um [black mist]?”

“yes. In the first place, Kim Ho-jung was ignoring it, and that was Kim Ho-jung’s own ability.”

“….”

Kim Ho-jeong looked at her hands without saying a word.

“Honestly, the reason this power is scary is because I don’t feel like I am when I die and come back to life. They don’t communicate, and they try to destroy everything they see…”

In fact, it’s not Kim Ho-jung, but Kim Ho-jung’s personality, so it’s a very accurate statement.

“It’s really no different than a monster.”

“It’s not just a monster. Even though we couldn’t talk, they fought together with me and saved Alec from almost dying.”

“…”

“He’s a bit rough, but I consider him a colleague. Because my heart is open.”

If Kim Ho-jeong had a keen eye, he would have realized that Kang Seung-hyun refers to the [black beast] right after his resurrection as a separate person from himself.

“thank you for saying it like that.”

“It was nothing.”

If you lay rice cakes step by step like this, won’t the day come when you wake up too?

It was Kang Seung-hyun who thought that.

“Sensei Kang doesn’t throw me away even when I’m drunk and makes a mess…

”

Canceled in 1 second.

“really. I have a question.”

“Something.”

Kim Ho-jeong looked around.

Originally, it was a pure white space with nothing in it, but now it was distorted and broken in the aftermath of Aiber, and the atmosphere was like a planet that had been destroyed somewhere.

“Then Ayver… is he dead? Is the church going bankrupt now?”

“Oh, that’s not it.”

It is true that Ayver died after being struck by a ‘delirium’ infused with [Disbelief], but the Ayver that appeared here is a much weaker alter ego than the main body.

“It is a situation where the main body is outside and a part of the power has been nerfed and has descended into a dream. In human terms, should we say that only one arm was pushed in?”

“Then Mr. Kang broke that arm.”

“answer. A broken arm doesn’t mean you’ll die, right?”

Originally, since he was a being in a dream, he shouldn’t have suffered any damage, but Kang Seung-hyun had the unexpected power of ‘dilimentary body’.

“In a word, Ayver itself has not disappeared, but the main body must have been damaged as much as the damage I did to the alter ego.”

Even if it was an alter ego, part of its power was completely lost, and it was burned with [Disbelief], which is very fatal to divine beings, so it’s not a damage that can be ignored.

“It’s going to be hard to come on for a while.”

It’s not a devastating damage, but it will take some time to recover from the injuries.

Even if it became known that Azul Continent’s god ranking had become such a mess, the other gods would not even dare to attack Kang Seung-hyun.

“Because Mr. Kang is really great.”

“This is how the conditions were right.”

But that doesn’t mean we won’t just sit back and watch, so it’s better to clear the contaminated area as soon as possible before reorganizing and attacking.

“Then shall we go soon? I have no reason to be here anymore.”

“There is no reason not to be there.”

Conversely, it also meant that this was the last place where only the two of you could be together.

‘I should warn you.’

In the end, the most important fact that I found out for sure through today’s work wasn’t asking Ayver not to kill the manager.

-The Administrator is thoroughly hiding the existence of the Black Beast.

Words that normally cannot be spoken are said to be subject to ‘keyword restrictions’, and they told me that there was something, but they did not mention the black beast at all.

‘It’s suspicious that the two were sealed in the same way since the black beast has nothing to do with the current situation.’

Azul who sealed the black beast in the [Cube of Eternity], and Ayber who sealed Azul in the [Cube of Eternity] and other gods of later generations.

No matter how much I think about it, I can’t help but think that there is some connection between the two.

For example, since Aiber saw Azul sealing the black beast, he sealed Azul in the same way.

‘Crucially, when you see that the black beast is trying to hide its existence from the manager even when it has lost its sanity…’ This

means that if the manager finds out that he has been resurrected, he will not let him go at all costs.

[Blurry hatred]

[The moment □□ tries to observe it, it causes cognitive impairment.]

Now that I think about it, the ‘□□’ in the skill description was a phrase that meant ‘Azul’, the first god who sealed herself.

‘wait.’

At that time, a sense of incongruity passed through my head.

‘I’m in a dream right now… Why was I able to activate [Observation Eye]?’

Seunghyun Kang immediately tried to use another skill or [Eye of Observation], but it didn’t activate.

‘In the first place, [Hazy Hatred] is also a skill, right? This isn’t normal since it’s activated in the dream.’

Apparently, being able to use the skill instantly at that time may itself be the [Black Beast]’s special ability.

‘Well, that guy wasn’t an ordinary god either. So you were trying to give me information?’

That may mean that even now, after Kim Ho-jung has taken over the physical initiative, he is not completely unconscious.

‘Hide things about yourself from him…’

Kang Seung-hyun, who roughly organized his thoughts, spoke to Kim Ho-jung, who was standing beside him.

“Mr. Kim Ho-jeong.”

“huh?”

“Kim Ho-jung, don’t be alone with the manager.”

“What?”

At that moment, Kim Ho-jung remembered a clown doll ghost story he had heard the other day.

‘The shop owner told me never to leave a child alone with a doll while selling clown dolls, but I came out because of something urgent and then I remembered that I had left the child alone, so I ran home and there was no child, only the doll was left alone, so I was in despair. But at that moment, the clown doll grinned and said, “Are there only two left?” and it ends…!’

“I don’t know what else you’re thinking nonsense about.”

Kang Seung-hyun looked at Kim Ho-jung in a bewildered manner and continued talking.

“The manager is someone who takes advantage of others by being friendly. Aside from other people, hogu like Kim Ho-jeong are perfect prey, so don’t just talk to them at all.”

I don’t know what would happen if I accidentally spoke about the black beast while hanging around the manager or having a conversation.

“What is it

?

“I’d like to ask, ‘Why?’

Kim Ho-jeong laughed with a weak face and pointed to the arrow under her feet.

“Then let’s go back. I’m sure the other kids are worried too.”

“Maybe.”

“The manager showed the way out. If you follow this, it’s the door to the exit.”

“You really did everything.”

Kang Seung-hyeon followed Kim Ho-jung, who was leading the way.
