How to Live as an Illegal Healer

Chapter 25

25. Request Breaker

“What?”

“Since I succeeded instead, Priest Huis failed the request.”

Seunghyun Kang said with a smile.

Healers consider it humiliating to fail a request. Failing the request means failing to treat the patient.

‘I can’t believe I failed the healer request.’

In that sense, Priest Huis (47 years old/Wandering Priest) was experiencing a humiliation he had never tasted in his entire life. That too, to a very young guy.

“If the priest reports that the request has failed, Lena-san, use that as an excuse to cancel the request.”

Currently, the compensation Kang Seung-hyun will receive is entrusted to the Adventurers Guild. To receive it, Lena must cancel the request.

“Isn’t it a bit cumbersome? I heard you have to pay to cancel the request...”

If you cancel the request, you can get your money back, but if you cancel without a valid reason, the fee will be deducted and returned.

“A request failure is a legitimate reason for cancellation.”

Seunghyun Kang smiled brightly and said. When canceling a request due to failure, the fee is not deducted.

“This way, Lena gets half of the commission back and I can get compensation without taking off the commission.”

In addition, half of the initial fee is refunded. From the Adventurer Guild’s point of view, it’s a crazy thing to do.

“ah! If I just give it right away without going through the adventurer’s guild, I won’t be able to take the commission!”

“Exactly.”

It’s been three years since I lived on the Azul continent as a wild healer. Kang Seung-hyun was good at robbing adventurers’ guilds and healers. in a legal way too.

“Then, Priest Huis. I will leave it up to you.”

“No...”

Huis nodded humiliatingly. Kang Seung-hyun’s tone was polite, but in reality he meant this.

‘Quickly cancel the request and hand it over to me.’

Actions that are clearly visible. But Hughes had no choice. What would a healer who failed the request have to say? If you stay here, your reputation will only drop.

– “The request failed... I’m here to report.”

“yes? Fail?”

Heiss gritted his teeth and handed out the request. Adventurer Guild receptionist Phil asked again in disbelief.

“Failed.”

I asked him several times, but Huis’s response was the same. He just nodded without speaking.

‘Nonsense.’

The receptionist thought with a puzzled face.

Priest Huis was the most skilled healer among the adventurers who recently visited the Adventurer’s Guild. He was one of the highest-ranking priests of the Ayver Church.

‘He’s a person who could even aim for a high-ranking position in the church...’

The person in question was wandering as a wandering priest saying he needed more training, but he was a healer with guaranteed skills.

‘Is that kind of person a failed request?’

Since he had succeeded in all the quests he had taken so far, he naturally thought that this quest would be a success as well.

‘The request cancellation is confirmed...’

The adventurer receptionist was frustrated. If that great Huis couldn’t do anything about it, the Hind Village Adventurer’s Guild had no way to do anything about it. It was natural to go through the cancellation process.

“I’m glad you came back safely.”

The receptionist collected the request form, spitting out his regular comments without soul. When I put a green stamp on the request form, the blue paper turned light green.

{Request Failed}

It was a moment neither the Adventurer Guild nor the adventurers wanted. Phil, the receptionist, and Huis, the priest, both sighed with hard faces. Lizzy, who came as a substitute for her client Lena, was smiling.

“So... it’s possible to cancel the request, right?”

“Yes.... This is a legitimate reason for cancellation.”

What would you say if a famous healer failed? The receptionist nodded with a sad face.

“We will begin the disposal process of this quest. According to the Adventurers Guild policy, if the request is canceled for a legitimate reason... half of the fee paid will be refunded.”

Half of the fee received by the receptionist and the compensation entrusted to him were returned. Lizzie smiled and accepted the money bag.

And Kang Seung-hyun, who was next to him, also smiled broadly at the sight. There is nothing more fun than canceling an adventurer’s guild request.

‘I’m doing this for this taste.’

To cancel a request for a legitimate reason. It is one of the most thrilling moments while working as a healer.

‘Another Kang Seung-hyeon...’

The receptionist looked at Kang Seung-hyeon, who was standing behind Huis and Lizzie.

“This goyan bastard!”

Heiss shouted with a red face, but Kang Seung-hyun smiled.

‘So who said to pretend to be proud with holy power?’

We just give back what we receive.

“I feel good today, but I shoot! Let’s have a drink!”

“All right.”

“The priest conceded such a large amount of money, but how can I just pass it on? Don’t worry about money, I’ll buy it.”

“Iiiik...! You bastard!”

Heiss got angry and left, saying he would never see her again.

“Even if you buy me a free drink, it’s crazy.”

Kang Seung-hyun smiled as he watched Huis walk away.

-‘Where and how much is in it?’

Kang Seung-hyun, who finished the request, checked the money bag.

‘600,000, 650,000, 700,000.’

Lizzy held out 700,000 gold in her pocket.

‘As expected, one request isn’t enough.’

I made decent money, but it wasn’t enough yet. He had 2 million gold as an emergency fund, so he only needed to collect another 2 million gold.

‘Finding a new request from the Adventurer’s Guild takes some time.’

Finding a quest worthy of stealing was not as easy as I thought. I wonder if the Adventurer’s Guild recognized Kang Seung-hyeon and entrusted him with a healer request.

‘Should I sell this for now?’

Kang Seung-hyeon recalled the corpse of a black swamp leech.

Monster remains are used in many places. Potion materials, as well as weapon materials, magic research materials... and so on.

There are many places where it is used, but it is difficult for individuals to obtain it, so there are people who specialize in rubble. In Azul Continent, it is called ‘medicine merchant’.

‘It could be added to the cost of the crossbow. Would you like to pay 100,000 gold?’

Kang Seung-hyun headed to the alleyway of Hind Village.

There are tents for apothecaries all over the place, but there is always only one tent he is heading to. It is the purple tent in the far corner.

-“excuse me.”

Upon entering, a woman was identifying the remains of a monster.

The woman’s name is Lafay. I am the owner of this tent.

“Because I heard your voice, it’s Mr. Kang. If you come to buy something, take it out on your own.”

Lafay said without taking his eyes off the remains of the monster.

“I’m not here to buy, I’m here to sell.”

“Then don’t say anything.”

Lafay finally looked this way.

“Which store prefers customers who come to sell rather than customers who come to buy?”

“Because digging in rubble is no fun.”

The apothecary is a job that discriminates between monster remains and sets prices. Basically money is the goal, but there are rare guys who like to study monster remains.

Lafay was such a case.

“I just caught the guy, so please give me an appraisal.”

Kang Seung-hyeon took out the body of a black swamp leech.

“Isn’t that a black swamp leech? Have you been to Myka Swamp?”

“I did go.”

I didn’t go there myself, but someone else.

“Um... you won’t get much after being cut in half. There are quite a few scratches and cuts.”

The better the condition of the monster remains, the more expensive they are. Since the body was cut in half, the price was half of half of half.

“It’s better to cut it in half than to miss it.”

“Still, this is in good condition...”

“So how much is it? 100,000 gold?”

Lafay picked up the leech carcass with tweezers.

“uh?”

At that time, Lafay’s eyes changed as he looked at the leech.
