How to Live as an Illegal Healer

158. Wismel 1

“Then, what to do today is the workshop investigation?”

“If there is nothing special, that would be, right?”

“This is my third visit, so I’m starting to feel bored.”

The next day, Kang Seung-hyun and his party headed to the doll workshop. To dig up Wismel’s information that might be hidden in the workshop.

“Once we got in… where should we start investigating?”

“I know. This building is bigger than I thought.”

“It must be hard to find easily.”

Yesterday, because of various events,

the Tracotti Doll Workshop is a group presumed to be the Church of Wismel, behind the group of masks.

“I’m sure he wouldn’t have hidden it in an obvious place…”

So, it’s highly likely that information about Wismel is stored deep inside a building or in a hidden place.

“Is it Tracotti and the secret room? Rebecca, do you know anything?”

“well. I don’t know about secret rooms.”

“It would be a waste of time if we searched, so let’s just ask the person concerned.”

Yes.

If you’re looking for something in someone else’s house, it’s better to ask the landlord outright.

“That’s the old man’s room.”

“Excuse me Mr. Harvey.”

Seunghyun Kang went into Harvey Sarban’s room.

Harvey was making dolls on the workbench in his room. The effect of the Rustein Potion saved his life, but the pain did not go away, so his complexion looked very bad.

“I told you not to come in when I was working…”

“I stopped by briefly while on a tour.”

“…!”

Harvey, who hadn’t even looked at the door, raised his head as soon as he heard Kang’s voice.

He looked at Kang Seung-hyun with a confused face.

“Can I come in?”

“…Wouldn’t you come in anyway even if I told you not to come in?”

“You know that.”

Kang Seung-hyun entered confidently as if he were at home and settled down on the central sofa.

“We are here too.”

“Excuse me for a minute.”

Kim Ho-jeong and Rebecca, who came in next, also sat in appropriate places.

“It was true that you said you were coming to see the sights yesterday… You don’t need to ask for permission from me, so feel free to roam anywhere.”

Harvey muttered, his face wrinkled slightly, then returned to focusing on making the puppet.

“If you have any questions, ask the idle Ziggs. Because I am busy.”

“In fact, I came here not for tourism, but for data research.”

“…Research?”

Harvey, who was concentrating on the doll, raised his head with a slight eyebrow furrow.

“The Tracotti Doll Workshop is one of the oldest buildings. It must have been built hundreds of years ago.”

“I know you well. This workshop is a traditional building that has existed since the first tracotti was created. It is like the symbol of Tracotti.”

Harvey explained in a proud voice. I didn’t even ask about it.

“So why are you here to study history?”

In the meantime, to the point of being sarcastic.

Kang Seung-hyun felt Harvey’s personality was amazing.

“Studying history… It’s similar. I have a few questions for you.”

“So not to me, but to Ziggs…”

“Are these people familiar?”

Kang Seung-hyeon took out a picture of a group of masked faces. It is a wanted book created by the adventurer’s guild.

“How do I know those guys?”

Harvey glanced at the wanted letter and said he didn’t know.

“These guys are speculated to be followers of an unknown religion that has recently been spreading among the residents of Tracotti. Do you know anything about it?”

“I don’t know, I’m not interested. How do I know what commoners are doing?”

Harvey turned his head away with a sullen face.

As expected, Kang Seung-hyun raised another question.

“Then what about ‘Wizmel’?”

“what…?”

Hearing this, Harvey looked at Kang Seung-hyeon with a shocked face. Seeing him break out in a cold sweat, he seemed quite nervous.

“Have you ever heard of it?”

“I don’t know… that’s the first name I’ve ever heard of.”

Harvey replied, of course, that he didn’t know, but it’s the attitude of someone who knows.

Kang Seung-hyun said with a smile on his face.

“I never said Wismel was a name.”

“…!”

“Of course, the name is correct, but how does Mr. Harvey know that… He said he heard it for the first time in his life.”

“That…that’s…”

“You know something, right?”

Harvey, who had always been sullen, began to show nervousness for the first time.

Just looking at this, it means that Harvey knows something about Wismel.

“Didn’t you say you didn’t know? I have nothing to say!”

“I don’t know what your purpose is, but I need information about Wismel.”

Seunghyun Kang took out a bottle of medicine and put it on the table.

“Tell me the truth.”

“Threatenly threatened with medicine…!”

“is it so? It looks like you’re all better now and you don’t need it. Congratulations on your recovery.”

Seunghyun Kang got up and tried to leave the room.

“Okay I got it! Damn… you can just tell me!”

Harvey got up urgently and grabbed Kang Seung-hyun.

Because he was a man whose life was more important than his pride.

“It will be soon.”

Seunghyun Kang threw the medicine bottle at Harvey.

Harvey took the medicine bottle with a servile face and headed to the bookshelf in the back of the room.

“Wizmel… is the name of a being we have erased from history.”

“I knew that too.”

As expected by Kang Seung-hyun, the Tracotti doll workshop was the culprit who erased the records of Wismel and concealed its existence.

“We have discarded all data describing its name or existence, and only a few are kept here.”

Dig!

drooling.

When he manipulated the bookshelf, a magic circle appeared along with light, and a secret passage to a hidden room appeared.

“Only the owner of the Tracotti Doll Workshop is aware of the existence of this room. I also heard about this room when I inherited the workshop from my master.”

The room was full of old books and papers.

If you look at some of the book covers with the same pattern as the tattoo, they are unmistakably related to Wismel.

“As expected, high-ranking people all have secret rooms in their rooms.”

“It’s a romance.”

“Let’s read something first.”

Seunghyun Kang picked up the notebook closest to him.

“This is the diary of a Trakoti villager.”

“Did these guys even steal someone else’s diary?”

“These are the guys who will stay.”

I opened the notebook, but it was so worn out that there were only a few sentences I could read.

{Thanks to Wismel-sama, this year’s crops are also good.}

{The benevolent earth god who protects the village.} {

I’ll visit Wismel’s temple in the Red Forest tomorrow.} {

Thieves invaded the village with Wismel-sama’s power. We were able to defeat the swarm.}

{He loves Tracotti.}

{We love him too.}

However, from just a few sentences, it was clear that Wismel cared for and loved Tracotti very much.

I can’t even find a trace of it now.

“As expected, Wismel was the guardian deity of the Red Forest in Tracotti Village.”

“In addition, there is a record that Wismel taught the people of Tracotti how to make dolls out of clay!”

Rebecca, who was reading a book, shouted with a surprised face.

In other words, Wismel was the guardian deity of Tracotti and was no different from the progenitor of Tracotti puppeteers.

“How could this be? Other people may not know, but doll studios shouldn’t be like this!”

“Come to think of it, aren’t you guys some kind of priests too?”

Even though the doll workshop knew this, they took the lead in erasing and concealing Wismel’s existence.

Despite being a group that should serve Wismel more than anyone else.

“Elder Harvey, why did you cover up Wismel’s existence this far?”

“…”

“I wondered if he got rid of it because he was a bad guy, but it’s not like that.”

“There was a situation here too.”

“circumstances?”

Harvey clicked his tongue briefly and continued.

“I don’t know perfectly well because the records were lost in the middle, but… Wismel’s existence disappeared for unknown reasons.”

“The existence disappeared?”

“The extinction of God. That he is dead.”

The time is about 700 years ago.

One day, Wismel disappeared without a trace.

Although the exact reason is not recorded, the puppeteers determined that Wismel had disappeared.

“Since the god has disappeared, the priests can no longer use their power, and it was written that the barrier of the god that protected Tracotti also disappeared.”

The sudden death of Shin threw Tracotti into confusion.

Originally, Tracotti was a village that depended on the power of Wismel for everything, including its culture, life, economy, and customs.

“You never know when the monsters will attack, but there are no weapons, no humans to fight with, no food, no money, no barriers…. It is said that the village was literally on the verge of being destroyed overnight.”

At that time, the Kamar wizards came to Tracotti.

He said he would help Tracotti in crisis.

-We will help you.

– We will provide the necessary items for Tracotti.

-I will dispatch a wizard to protect the village.

Tracotti and Camar were on very bad terms at the time. Because one side believed in God and the other side denied God and walked the path of sorcery.

“what? Kamar bastards doing good deeds for no reason?”

“I can’t do that unless I’m crazy.”

“Of course he had a plan.”

In exchange for helping Tracotti, the Kamar mages demanded one of the holy relics enshrined in the Church of Wismel, [Wizmel’s Charity].

“According to legend, it is a jewel that Wismel gave to the first apostle. It is recorded that the people of Tracotti equated the jewel with Wismel and regarded it as sacred.”

“Why do wizards covet that?”

“That’s obvious. It must be because of the powerful magic inside. Wizards are crazy about research.”

All holy relics contain divine power, but it is said that [Wismel’s Love] contained a truly enormous amount of divine power and magical power.

“Of course, as the jewel is considered sacred in Tracotti, they usually prevent people from even visiting Camar…”

At that time, Tracotti was in a state of great confusion as Wismel disappeared without a trace.

“Priests who lost their power committed suicide while denying reality, and then epidemics led to the death of livestock and people… There is no such thing as hell.”

The puppeteers, who saw the messed up Tracotti and the priests fall, decided to make a deal with the Kamar wizards after much thought.

“Rather than a god who has disappeared, we needed a magician who could immediately provide food and medicine…” was written in the master puppeteer’s notes at the time.”

“Then you sold [Wizmel’s Charity] to Camar?”

“okay.”

“There must have been a lot of backlash.”

“Of course, there was no backlash.”

However, the high-ranking priests who should have protested violently had long since died or gone mad, and the common people who were dying of starvation could hardly refuse the wizards’ aid.

“From then on, Tracotti relied on Camar for everything. It became natural to go to Kamar to buy and sell goods, and more and more children dreamed of becoming wizards instead of priests.”

The problem is after that. It was when the chaotic village began to regain stability little by little.

“Maybe it’s because they’ve become more than enough to live on, so some guys who claim to bring back [Wismel’s Charity] have started to appear.”

-Someday, Wismel-nim will come back!

-When he returns and finds out that we have betrayed him, he will punish us.

– We have to get back the holy relic that the wizards took away!

However, Tracotti still needed Camar’s support, and now it has turned into a village that cannot live without Camar’s help.

“If I asked for the relic in that situation, wouldn’t the support be cut off right away?”

After much deliberation, the doll workshop decided to disband the Wismel Church and completely erase all records of Wismel.

“Because the church and divine beings were only a hindrance as long as I was able to interact with the wizards.”

Of course, the Church of Wismel strongly protested, but Tracotti’s power had long since passed into the hands of the doll workshop behind Camar.

The Church of Wismel was defeated by the doll workshop and disappeared from history.

“About 80% of the history that Tracotti people believe in now is fabrication. It is known that he had a friendly relationship with Kamar from a long time ago, but in reality, he was an enemy who would fight whenever he saw it.”

The doll workshop searched all over Tracotti, erased Wizmel’s name, and faked the achievement as Camar and replaced it with a fake record.

It is said that the Qamars also subtly corrected their history based on the records.

“Does it need to go that far?”

“It must have been scary.”

The puppeteers were very afraid that Wismel would return or punish them.

It was for the sake of living, but it was true that he abandoned God.

“But if a divine being is forgotten by people, there is nothing to reappear.”

Fearing punishment, the doll workshop erased Tracotti’s guardian deity and their ancestor Wismel from history.

“After all, the parent body of the doll workshop is the Church of Wismel… After all, the methods of the people of the Church are similar.”

“But I can’t get rid of them all.”

Harvey looked around the room.

The puppeteers collected and disposed of Wismel’s materials, but hid some of them in the doll workshop.

“I’m hiding it like this and passing it on only to the owner of the workshop from generation to generation. Even if no one else knows, we should know the truth or something.”

Thanks to this, for hundreds of years, information about Wismel was said to be a top-secret topic known only to the owner of the doll workshop and the puppeteer who would become the next owner.

“But how do you guys know Wismel? It’s really top secret.”

“That’s right, the elder is trying to revive the Church of Wismel.”

The unidentified religion spreading in the village of Tracotti, whose name is unknown, is undoubtedly the Church of Wismel.

Of course, I thought that the doll workshop was behind them.

“We came here thinking that the Doll Workshop is trying to revive the Wismel Church.”

However, Harvey denied it with a puzzled face.

“Why would I do such a thing? If that bastard is resurrected, the doll studio will be punished.”

The doll studio was not behind the incident.
