89. Episode 89

By the time I found the man, he had already passed out.

His clothes were in tatters, and his whole body was full of wounds from wolf bites and claws.

Sewoon urgently tried to use recovery magic, but… … .

‘The wound is worse than I thought.’

The man’s condition was worse than expected.

Sewoon somehow healed the wound from the wolf, but no matter how long he left it, it was full of festering wounds.

If I had discovered it a little later, it would have already been eaten by the wolves.

Because of that, Sewoon ran to the base of Clan Diablo with the man on his back.

I tried to use the power of greed, but it was only ambiguous to use on a man now.

The contract with Mammon ended with the return of Durandal, so potions and the like could not be brought out through the power of greed.

‘What would I have done if it had been 4 circles?’

Sewoon’s mana circle is now three.

It’s a ridiculously high number for a player on the first floor who just created a circle in the tutorial, but it was slightly below average when looking at the overall level of the tower.

‘I need to raise the circle a little before the next battle.’

Anyway, I have free time for about a month on the first floor.

With the power of gluttony, the circle’s mana was almost filled, so it seemed like a month would be enough to create the next circle.

So, the priority now was to take the man to the base.

‘I think I’ll have to speed it up a bit.’

The sound of the man’s breathing coming from behind him was getting quieter and quieter.

I didn’t know it when I was running alone, but with a person on my back, it was difficult to use the walking method, and the rocky road was very uncomfortable, so I couldn’t speed up.

Sewoon, who had briefly thought about it, immediately aroused the power of greed.

– Opened the treasure house of greed.

[ Goat’s Hoof ]

– Hard hooves of mountain goats that live in Geukcheon Mountain, which is said to be high enough to pierce the sky.

The power of the treasure dwelled in Seun’s legs.

The mountain goat’s unique thick legs and pointed toes overlapped, and strength gushed from the legs.

It seemed that he felt the strength of the mountain goat, and stigmata that had absolutely nothing to do with the current situation seemed to glisten with joy.

bang!

The sound of spurring rocks is completely different from before.

The feeling of kicking a rock with something hard, not your foot. It literally felt like a mountain goat kicking rocks with hard hooves.

‘With this, I’ll arrive on time.’

Goat legs have evolved to move well on mountains, rocks, and cliffs. As such, even with a person on his back, Sewoon’s speed actually increased faster than before.

“older brother! Let’s go together!”

Ignoring Park Jung-pil’s complaints coming from behind.

Sewoon, who had become accustomed to running with hard hooves, accelerated his movements.

* * *

“Brother is here! Hurry up and open the door!”

With Park Jeong-pil’s cry, a clan member standing on the watchtower recognized Se-jun and opened the door.

Sewoon ran without stopping and entered the ward he saw when he was being introduced to the base yesterday.

Then, Lee Ha-neul, who was manufacturing something on a wide table, looked at Se-eun in amazement.

“Clan leader?”

“It is a patient. Please treat me.”

“Clan leaders can also use recovery magic, right? You don’t have to come to me… … .”

“It’s too much for me.”

“yes?”

Seun, thinking that it would be better to confirm directly than to explain, laid the man down on the bed.

The man, stretched out like a corpse, was breathing weakly enough to be felt when he brought his ear closer.

If it had been a little late, he would have ended his life on Seun’s back.

Sensing the urgency in Seun’s voice, Lee Ha-neul quickly checked the man’s condition, and his expression hardened.

“… … I can see why the clan leader said it was impossible.”

When I looked at the clothes, I could see the wounds that were rotting beyond the level of festering.

The sole of his left foot was bruised black, and his right knee was abnormally swollen.

There were various other wounds, but the most serious among them was the abdomen.

The neighborhood was rotting unsightly around the clear claw marks of what appeared to be a beast.

“I will start with treatment first.”

Lee Ha-neul took out a tool he hadn’t seen before.

A scalpel that looks sharper than most swords. With it, she cut through the man’s decayed wounds without hesitation.

“Aagh!”

The dying man’s screams filled the ward.

It was a wound that was so rotten that it was hard to believe that the senses were alive, but in the meantime, only the sense of pain seemed to be alive.

Then, Lee Ha-neul put the other hand that did not hold the scalpel on the man’s forehead.

“Please bear with me for a little while.”

“Keugh… … big… … .”

The man’s screams slowly diminish.

It seemed that he had been given some kind of anesthesia through the power of the Constellation.

-The constellation ‘Bloody Lion’ is running out of time and recommends taking a bolder move.

“all right.”

squeak, squeak.

There was no hesitation in Lee Ha-neul’s action to move the scalpel.

While treating numerous patients during the tutorial, she had already become a great therapist, both technically and mentally.

The rotten skin was cut out, and parts of the organs festering inside were cut without hesitation.

A wound so severe that one wonders if even Earth’s modern medicine can save it.

However, there was a power so outstanding that it surpassed modern medicine.

Ugh!

A red aura shone from her hand.

The power of Marvas, the 5th ranked demon king.

The man’s wounds were quickly healed by that power.

At the same time, the condition of the man who had been moaning in whiteness also quickly improved.

The sound of breathing changes evenly, and the moans disappear.

Soon after, she wrapped the treated area with a cotton cloth and sighed in relief as she wiped the sweat from her forehead.

“I put out the fire urgently. The other wounds are also serious, but not to the extent that they are life-threatening, so we will have to treat them gradually.”

“Good job. Have you improved your treatment skills?”

“I wasn’t playing around either.”

It was difficult to see her treatment as simply a magical power.

First, her hand cut out the rotten part.

It was a treatment that was not easily seen by the tower’s healers who did not like to have blood on their hands.

‘Probably, modern medicine and the power of the Constellation were mixed.’

Even with the power of the Constellation, it is not omnipotent.

If he left the rotten part undisturbed and used only healing magic, there was a risk of the wound becoming worse or worse.

Such shortcomings are made up for with the knowledge of modern medicine.

“Scalpel, you look pretty familiar, right?”

“Outside, I was originally a nurse. I knew how to use a scalpel because I often went to the operating room.”

be a nurse

Even if I had been in an operating room, I would never have held a scalpel myself.

Based on the memories of the past, and thanks to a lot of practice, the current treatment was possible.

Indeed, it was a talent that Marvas would like.

“When do you think you will recover?”

“I can finish my physical recovery in two days, but I can’t guarantee when I’ll wake up.”

Lee Ha-neul replied by spreading thick liquid over the man’s wounds.

It didn’t seem like a potion, but it was like a kind of medicine made from grinding herbs.

That must be what was being made on the table.

“Well, it seems like the shock was great.”

“Anyway, there is no battle right now, and there are no patients, so I will take care of you until you wake up.”

“thank you.”

“no. I felt like I was suddenly floating because there were no patients.”

The man is the key figure who knows what will happen in a month.

That’s how important it is, but that doesn’t mean Sewoon can’t keep watching.

However, it was a welcome thing for Sewoon to think that she would take care of a man first.

“Do you need anything? I think he was making medicine.”

“Ah, it’s a bit like playing around because there are no patients, so I looked for some medicinal herbs nearby. If you don’t mind… … .”

“Get me some herbs. is this?”

“yes. I can’t follow everyone around, so I thought it would be nice to make an emergency medicine.”

He wanted to borrow Mamon’s real treasure through the treasure house of greed, but the contract ended with returning Durandal.

Because that was the contract in the first place.

Of course, you can buy potions through the public value shop, but the potions in the public value store are more expensive than you think.

Because this wasn’t a game.

Potions were so precious and expensive that they were called the second life.

If it was a herbal medicine, it would be a little less effective than a potion, but it would be sufficient for first aid when there is no therapist nearby.

‘Come to think of it, that hill must have a lot of herbs.’

One of the fields on the first floor came to Seun’s mind.

As he stayed on the 1st floor until the last moment before returning, he wandered around the various areas of the 1st floor through the guideline of the journey.

The place I remembered now was also one of those areas.

‘It would be much better to collect mana there.’

In order to create the fourth circle, not only excellent training methods but also suitable places for training were required.

Since the required mana level for 1 circle was not that high, it could have been done roughly at the base, but what Sewoon was trying to do now was 4 circles.

If there is a place rich in mana, such as the forgotten hero’s retreat, the performance of training increases exponentially.

In that sense, the place that Seun recalled could be said to be the best training ground on the first floor.

“Okay, I’ll pick up the herbs.”

“really? Oh, just in case, going with people… … .”

“no. I am comfortable alone.”

“Um, yes. I know the power of the clan leader. Even if we follow, it will get in the way.”

“Not to that extent, I have work to do.”

“What to do?”

“You don’t even have to know that. Probably a few days at the earliest. If it is late, it will take about 15 days.”

“Does it take that long?”

“Rather than the distance, it’s because of what I said earlier.”

“ah… … .”

Sewoon thinks lightly, but the 4th circle was never light.

Those without talent in magic could not reach it even if they trained all their lives, and even those with talent in magic could take decades depending on the degree.

Sometimes so-called geniuses create circles in a matter of years, but that’s literally the case with geniuses.

Sewoon now believes in only three things.

Mamon’s treasures, excellent training grounds, and mana control that he had dealt with throughout his life to survive before returning.

Because of that, I was able to spit out the words that it was late at least.

“If anything happens, tell Seo Ah Yoo. Communication stone can be used here as well.”

“all right. I will take care of the patient.”

“Then, please take care of me.”

He was a little out of breath as he hurriedly ran up with a man on his back, but while talking to Lee Ha-neul, Sewoon’s breathing was surprisingly stable.

She insisted on resting for a while, but Sewoon didn’t.

‘one month. Within a month, he not only raises his combat power, but also finds all the hidden pieces on the first floor.’

A month was not a very long time for Sewoon.
