Became the Only Healer in the Academy

26

The friend stayed by the man’s side.

until the very next day.

“How is it? Are you okay?”

From yesterday until now, the sleeping parents and their expressions themselves seemed relatively peaceful, but there was no way to know what was going on inside, so the man was just frustrated.

“I’m sorry to say this, but even if you wake up, it will be difficult for you to lead a normal life.”

“Yes, yes? What do you mean by that?”

The man did not understand the doctor’s words.

Can any doctor tell the guardian that it’s better not to wake up?

But to say the contrary, it was like the situation was running from the worst to the worst, so the man waited for the doctor to quickly deflect this prediction.

“The pain is going to get worse. So we are increasing the amount of painkillers we are taking, and we are also administering opioids, but this will become insufficient someday.”

“Well, then…”

“Yes. If you feel only pain when you are awake, I would say that it would be better not to wake up. Of course, the choice must be made by the guardian.”

Jinseok couldn’t answer.

If I had to lie down like this for the rest of my life and spend the rest of my life without even being conscious, would it be right to be alive?

Wouldn’t it be better to stay awake even if you feel pain?

Jinseok clenched his fists tightly.

No matter what choice you make, there is no best or best option.

There are only the worst and the worst.

And the fact that he had to choose it was only himself, which made it even more painful.

He was the one who made his parents like this.

The one who has to choose the future of his parents, between the worst and the worst, is himself.

“You have a few days to spare, so please think carefully and tell me.”

The doctor looked like he didn’t want to talk anymore.

The more they talked, the more they reminded them that all they could do was relieve the pain.

“Jinseok-ah…”

The friend could not offer any other words of consolation than just calling out the name of the friend who was in pain.

The good news was that I was able to suggest a workaround.

“Uh, uh…”

The friend sat next to Jin-seok, who was sitting next to his parents’ bed in despair.

“Do you remember what I said yesterday?”

“yesterday? Oh, there might be a way…?”

“yes.”

“What? What is it?”

Jin-seok asked, looking at his friend, erasing the despair that had just stayed in his eyes.

“You too… you know? Healer who appeared on TV in the past.”

“Ahh! of course you know I don’t know how.”

Jinseok knew it well.

As a hunter, I couldn’t be unaware of the news.

“no way…”

“right. I don’t think there’s any other way than him right now.”

“…”

However, Jinseok did not show a very positive reaction.

I knew the side effects all too well.

“Are you going to come forward for my family, who doesn’t have any face-to-face…?”

Even just stepping out wasn’t all there was to it.

The biggest question was whether he would feel the pain Jin-seok’s parents are going through instead.

“Are you going to be still like this?”

“…it’s not…”

“let’s go.”

“…yes?”

“Let’s go. to meet you.”

Jinseok was still a little hesitant, but as his friend said, there was no other way than to meet a healer.

“But do you know where it is?”

“That person, like me, is the academy class representative. He went to the door every day. Even the door you went to.”

“then…!”

Jinseok seemed to have a little hope now.

I still don’t know what kind of person Seong-hyeon is, but I thought I’d listen to whatever he asked for.

even your own life.

Jinseok and his friend left the hospital immediately.

Since I found the only way to solve it, there was no reason to hesitate any longer.

About 30 minutes away from the hospital, Jinseok arrived again at the door he had come to yesterday with a different mindset.

“cheer up. will be there now.”

“yes…”

The two went straight through the door.

I felt the presence of the Hunters around me, so I checked it out, but it was probably not at the entrance of the door, so I headed deeper.

“I can feel the popularity from the front.”

The friend recognized the hunters’ presence and blocked Jinseok’s front with one hand.

If you ever met a hunter who committed a crime in such a deep place, there was no place to turn to for help, so you had to at least figure it out and then contact him.

“…right.”

“yes?”

“See the hunter in the middle over there? That person is a healer.”

“Hey, that person…!”

Whether they came with the class representatives, I could see them hunting the beasts in full swing.

“After this battle is over, let’s get closer.”

The subjugation of the beasts ended much faster than the two expected, and Jinseok and his friend approached Seonghyeon and others without hesitation.

“Who is it?”

Seonghyeon was immediately aware of the two of them.

There was no hostility, so I was just watching how it would turn out.

Instead of Jin-seok, who was very nervous, the friend asked carefully.

“Are you… a healer?”

“yes.”

Sunghyun’s answer was clear.

He didn’t introduce himself or ask what his business was.

“Can we talk for a moment?”

“About the conversation… can you wait a minute?”

“Yeah, call me if there’s anything.”

“Go.”

In-hwan and Sang-yeon seemed to think the conversation was okay.

“A little seat, please.”

Seonghyeon and the two of them started talking a little away from the party.

“What are you doing?”

Jin-seok sighed in relief that Seong-hyeon was not showing much vigilance.

“Jin Seok-ah. you tell me.”

“…”

Jinseok took action before opening the horse door.

Jin-seok knelt on the spot and looked at Seong-hyeon.

Seeing the mixture of bewilderment and embarrassment in the eyes looking down at him, it seemed like he didn’t expect Jinseok to come out like this.

“Please, please, please.”

“Wow, what…”

“My parents are cursed.”

“A curse… on?”

Seonghyeon was able to grasp the situation immediately.

He already knew the identity of the mutant beast, and even knew where it came from.

That being said, this man on his knees in front of him was trying to defeat the mutant beast, and as a result, his parents must have been cursed.

“that is…”

Jinseok briefly explained the situation, and everything was as Seonghyun expected.

“please…”

Jinseok had no choice but to say the word please.

Seonghyeon was also a hunter, and a hunter would know what a curse was.

In addition, the pain felt by his parents, who are ordinary people, must be different from the pain felt by a hunter.

It was no different than asking someone who had no knowledge of the pain to feel it for him, so his mouth did not fall off easily.

“I will give you anything you want. If I have it, immediately, if I don’t have it, at all costs.”

“Hey… even if you say that, there may be nothing I can do about it.”

“Yes…?”

Seonghyeon’s ability is healing.

Looking back on the description of the healing ability, all that was said was that it could heal a small wound without a trace.

“You know the difference between a curse and a wound, right?”

“Stand, please.”

“My ability is to heal. Curse is… it seems difficult.”

It was not something that Jinseok and his friends had expected.

Healing wounds and releasing curses are completely different realms.

“Then… I…”

However, getting an answer from what was expected was also a different area.

When the despair he had been trying to turn away from appeared materialized, Jin-seok knelt down in hope that had now completely disappeared and, unable to get up, turned his gaze to the floor.

Now what to do.

Is there really no way left?

Do I have to live in a situation where I can’t hold on to my parents or let them go like this?

“…if it’s enough to confirm…”

“I am really?”

Seong-hyeon held out his hand to Jin-seok, who was still kneeling, and said.

“Wake up at once.”

“…”

Jinseok lowered his gaze to the floor again for a moment.

He seemed to need a little calm, so he held out his hand and waited for a while, as if he had calmed down, and got up holding his hand.

“thank you. Thank you very much.”

“I don’t think it’s time to say thank you yet. Then, before we leave, I will speak to my party first.”

“yes. Once again…thank you.”

Seonghyeon went straight to Sangyeon and Inhwan.

“Did you finish the conversation? What did you say?”

“It’s obvious. Aren’t you trying to save someone who was hurt?”

“There’s something about it.”

Seong-hyeon briefly explained the situation, and In-hwan soon nodded.

“Then there is nothing you can do. So, will we meet tomorrow?”

“maybe.”

“…Then see you tomorrow.”

I would also ask for your partner’s understanding.

Seong-hyeon immediately followed Jin-seok to the hospital.

There was no other conversation until we got to the hospital.

He just followed Jin-seok’s impatient steps and headed for the hospital room.

Seong-hyeon, who arrived in the hospital room, stood in front of his parents under Jin-seok’s guidance.

‘It certainly looks comfortable, but it’s not at all.’

From the outside, there seemed to be no problem, but Sunghyun could feel it.

Now, they were seeking the unconscious to avoid pain.

“Go, is it possible?”

Seong-hyeon placed his hand on Jin-seok’s parents’ forehead.

And then he used his healing powers.

“…”

“…”

There was a brief silence, but there was no change in Seonghyun’s expression.

‘weird.’

Obviously the pain was felt.

However, it was never large enough to be said to have lifted this curse.

‘Is this enough to alleviate the pain you’re experiencing now?’

Seonghyeon continued to use the treatment for the tolerable level of pain, and the amount of pain she felt gradually decreased.

“How, how is it going?”

“…Let’s go out and talk.”

Although it is said that the tent was pitched in the hospital bed, there were other patients and guardians, so Seong-hyeon went out with Jin-seok and his friend.

“This is the first time this has happened, and perhaps the best thing to do is to ease the pain you are experiencing now.”

“Ahh…”

Jin-seok’s expression was a mixture of relief and regret, despair and hope.

“After continuing to use it, I did not feel any pain at any moment. I guess I’ll have to try it again tomorrow to find out.”

I could have given medicines using materialization, but I wanted to see it with my own eyes because it was the first time I had seen it like this.

“Then will you come tomorrow too?”

“Yeah, well… it should be.”

Jinseok looked at Sunghyun and bit his lower lip.

It looked like he had a lot of things he wanted to say, but he seemed hesitant if even that might get in the way of Seonghyeon.

“thank you…”

“When everything is okay, say thank you then.”

Seonghyeon left the place promising to come back tomorrow.

Jin-seok’s friend, who was waiting outside, confirmed that Seong-hyeon had left, and approached Jin-seok and asked.

“it’s okay?”

“What could be wrong? If it relieves the pain even a little… I can be satisfied with that.”

Obviously, Jinseok’s expression has improved a lot.

It was the expression of letting go of everything before, but now the expression of a person who has found hope.

“I will go too.”

“yes. After all, I didn’t say hello to you. Thank you very much.”

“Thank you. Goes.”

Jin-seok, who was about to go in after smoking, put the cigarette back in his pocket and went back to the hospital room.

However, in the hospital room, an unbelievable scene unfolded.

“Ugh…”

“Oh, Dad…?”

That’s when my father woke up.

And soon my mother woke up.
