Chapter 204
204. Too late
“…light?”
Kang Seung-hyeon took a closer look at the corpses of the guild members.
Upon examining the area where the light was emitted, a grain was found in it.
“There is something like this inside.”
“What is this… what the hell is it?”
Ziggs opened his mouth with a stiff face.
They were different in size, but all of them were strange substances that emitted dazzling light.
“It feels like something like a jewel… No matter how you look at it, it’s not something that would come out of a human body.”
“Okay? Could it be a sacred urinary stone?”
“Does that make sense?”
“It seems to be true that it contains divine power.”
Kang Seung-hyun, who was examining the grains, opened his mouth with a calm face.
[Something with divine power]
[Holy power leaks out from within.]
When [Eye of Observation] was actually activated, it was clear that this was not an ordinary substance, although the exact identity was unknown.
“I don’t know what exactly.”
When powers such as magical power or divine power or dark magic exist in the human body, they exist as energy without a physical form and do not crystallize in this way.
“It is not a naturally occurring substance.”
Let’s use [Extraction] towards the part that actually shines,
Char!
I was able to pull out the grains in my body.
The [Extraction] skill is said to judge these grains as ‘foreign matter’.
“Why is this in the wizard’s body…”
“Well. I don’t know.”
A strange substance was found in the wizard’s stomach even though it was inside the priest’s body. I can’t figure out what is what.
“It seems to have something to do with these guys using divine skills, but…” “
{What the hell is this? Is it millet?}”
The black beast could not understand what the three of them were talking about, so it raised its front paw and tapped the grain.
Wrong!
“{Ah!!!!}”
Then, as if he failed to control his strength, he threw the grain away.
“{Sorry! I accidentally ate it!}”
“It doesn’t really matter… Huh?”
An idea flashed through Kang Seung-hyun’s mind as he looked at the smashed pellets.
‘Wait, since this is also an item with divine power… I wonder if it can fill the jar?’
Kang Seung-hyeon immediately took out the [Sacred Vessel].
Hwaa!
Then, as the grains were broken, the divine power that spread out was sucked into the [Very of Divinity].
‘It’s a success!’
Compared to the Holy Relic, the sacred power was only the size of an ant’s tears, but the original savings started by collecting change.
Whoa whoa whoa!
Kang Seung-hyeon put all but one or two grains of divine power into the [Vessel of Divinity].
‘It’s not enough to be compensated because the amount is small.’
After all, isn’t it better than nothing?
Kang Seung-hyeon placed the [Vessel of Divinity] with a satisfied face.
“{Sir Kang, can you put that in a jar too?}”
“{Yes. It contains divine power.}”
Turn off [God’s Communication] and briefly explain,
“{I thought that killing four people would produce divine power… Sir, I am still mentally prepared…}”
“ {No.}”
“{No? Thank God.}”
The black beast sighed with relief.
It was because he thought that Kang Seung-hyeon would go to annihilate the priests in order to gain divine power.
“{If I killed a priest and found something like this, I would have written it a long time ago.}” “
{I’m sure I’m going to kill it!}” “{
Well, even if it comes out, it would be better to take a holy relic rather than kill dozens of priests.}
” I don’t know if there’s something like holy power leftovers, but I’m not interested in it yet.
“Then let’s go rescue the kidnapped people soon.”
“What about these people?”
“The Adventurer Guild will take care of it.”
Kang Seung-hyeon and his party left the private line guild members behind and headed to their hideout.
– “There is a cave over there.”
“This is their hideout!”
If Gahen lied, he was going to bend his back, but luckily the location of the hideout was real.
shred! Pak!
Kang Seung-hyun and his party opened the entrance to the hideout using the ripped off key and went inside.
“Hee-ik…”
“Help me please… send me home.”
“I won’t tell anyone! Please have mercy…!”
As expected, the abducted passengers were locked in a prison inside the cave.
Roughly counting the number of people trapped inside was about twelve.
“The prison is very poor.”
“This is worse than my room. It’s close to a pig pen.”
“Since it’s a prison designed with the intention of confining them for a while and then selling them off, they wouldn’t even feed them.”
In addition, many people were forced into such a poor prison, so everyone who was confined looked bad.
The guy who trades with the private line guild doesn’t seem to care about the condition of the traded item as long as his life is attached to it.
“Please, save your life…”
“Calm down. He is a good person.”
“I got information that bad guys are kidnapping people, so I came to rescue them.”
“Thank you! thank you!”
“I think we should open this cage first.”
bang! bang!
Ziggs knocked on the prison bars.
It’s not that difficult to break the iron cage, but if you forcefully break it, the people trapped inside will get hurt.
“What? The prison is narrow, so I can’t ask you to step back.”
“I just break it.”
“…Don’t you usually find another way?”
“Even if you get hurt, I can treat you.”
Kang Seung-hyun tried to break the iron cage without hesitation.
It’s going to hurt a little bit, but it’s enough to heal anyway.
“Oh wait a minute. I have a secret skill.”
“A secret skill?”
“It’s one of the dark magic tricks. It’s one of the forbidden techniques that shouldn’t be used carelessly… but it seems like this is the moment.”
Then Alec smiled and stepped forward.
“That forbidden technique?”
“What kind of skill is this…”
“If you use this secret skill, you can open pretty much any door.”
Black magic is very rare to see due to the nature of the Azul Continent.
The two of them, as well as the people locked in the cage, looked at Alec with nervous faces.
“The secret secret of black magic, the seal-breaking technique!”
Alec shouted, then took out tweezers and unlocked the iron cage.
Click!
“good. Unlocked!”
“Hey, what kind of forbidden technique is this?”
“It’s just [picking a lock]!”
“Because picking locks is illegal.”
“It’s not black magic or anything in the first place. You impostor!”
“What did you get in shape for?”
The two of them booed, but
“That’s how the success rate goes up.”
Alec smiled shamelessly and opened the cage.
Chunk!
“Thank you.”
“I’m alive thanks to you!”
Because the process saved them anyway, the people who were trapped shed tears in sincere gratitude.
‘But this isn’t black magic, isn’t it a log technique…’ ‘
The forbidden technique is obviously correct, but if caught, the forbidden technique is fined…
‘
“Thank you so much!”
At that time, someone burst into tears and ran out from the cage with a very loud voice.
“If it weren’t for you, I would have died here! How am I really supposed to repay this kindness…”
Her clothes were similar to those of the people around her, but she was a woman with lime-colored hair who gave off an awkward atmosphere that was not very common.
‘It’s this guy.’
The moment Kang Seung-hyeon saw her, he could tell that she was an investigator for the Magic Association.
She smiled shyly and held out her arm.
“Actually, I got injured when I was brought here… Can I ask for treatment? I will pay the price without regret.”
“I know. You must have been hurt from fighting the kidnappers.”
“How about that!”
“You came from the Magic Association. This is yours, right?”
Kang Seung-hyun smiled and held out the jewelry staff.
“Thank you. But how can I be a member of the Magic Association…”
“Let’s start with the injured arm.”
Instead of answering, Seunghyun Kang looked at the investigator’s arm.
[Very swollen.]
[Bone cracked.]
Her arm was severely swollen.
It seems that when he confronted a member of the firing line guild, he received a big attack on his arm and dropped his staff.
‘Did you block it with a magic shield? Unfortunately, if the bones were completely broken, I was going to replace them with [Earth Bone].’
Thanks to that, even if I left it for a long time, the condition wasn’t too serious. This can be treated by fixing it with a bandage.
“It hurts a bit, but bear with it.”
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! Please use heels!!”
“I don’t know how to use heels.”
Kang Seung-hyeon used a bandage to fix his arm and activated [Cure Decision].
“Then you’re not a healer… Huh?”
The teary-eyed investigator looked at his arm.
“Are you recovering?”
It’s a very slow pace compared to Hill, but he was definitely recovering from his arm injury little by little.
The investigator looked at Kang Seung-hyun with a puzzled face.
“Even if you can’t heal, you can heal injuries.”
“Hey there…”
“I’m late in introducing myself.”
Seunghyun Kang smiled and opened his mouth.
“My name is Healer Kang Seung-hyun.”
“Everything you do! Lord Gabain said!”
The inspector jumped up from his seat and shouted as if he had noticed it only then.
“It is an honor to meet you! I am Matiana Buce, a wizard from the Magic Association!”
she revealed her name.
My name is Matiana Buce. He was also an investigator dispatched by order of the Magic Association.
“I received an offer from Camar. He said he wanted to establish a Magic Association branch in Hind Village to honor Healer Kang Seung-hyun’s achievements!”
“I’m a bit close with Lord Gabain. Aren’t we supposed to help each other?”
Kang Seung-hyun smiled brightly and thought of the cowardly lord who must be suffering from hard labor in Camar.
“I’m glad you’re okay. What would have happened if there was a problem with the identity of the investigator from the association…”
Kang Seung-hyun said with a smile.
‘For example, the Adventurer’s Guild is overturned. Or that Liwen’s branch manager casts a Granzel on the Magic Association.’
Actually, I thought it would be fun in its own way.
“I’ve heard that he’s a great person, but I can’t imagine he’ll be favored like this…”
Matiana, unaware of Kang Seung-hyun’s intentions, muttered as she wiped away tears.
He said that if Kang Seung-hyun and his party had not come to rescue him, he would have been sold somewhere.
“Then… can we say that the construction of the Magic Association is proceeding without any hindrance?”
“There is nothing more to see. This must be pursued unconditionally!”
Matiana shouted with a face of course.
Originally, the construction of the association was approved only after meticulous research, careful judgment, and rigorous screening.
‘It’s common in this town.’
Due to the nature of Azul Continent, where parachuting and corruption are prevalent, this can be easily solved by using some personal connections.
“Are you okay? It’s an adventurer’s union!”
“I’m here to save you!”
The Adventurers Guild heard the news belatedly and dispatched adventurers, but
it was ‘a step too late.’
The magic association investigator’s heart has long since fallen into the hands of Kang Seung-hyeon.
