The Heroine Saves the World

The heroine saves the world

episode 37

“Hey, hey! Wait a minute!”

I briefly called out to Jang Su-ho, who was about to go to the swamp under Kang-han’s instructions.

“Sorry, Guild Leader. I forgot to give Jangsuho Heal in advance today.”

After wrapping it around like that, he grabbed the wrist that was exposed through the combat uniform.

[Use the skill ‘Dark Purification’.]

[ Purification efficiency increases due to the target’s special constitution. ]

[ Stamina 1 → Purification rate 1% ]

The efficiency is on a whole other level compared to when purifying Hanjiseong.

I first reduced my stamina to ’25’ and used the skill.

[ Effective purification succeeded! ]

[ Target’s Darkness Addiction Rate 20% ]

[ The target’s abnormal status ‘Berserker’ madness is reduced. ]

As expected, my guess was correct.

I had vaguely expected it after seeing that Jang Su-ho’s Berserker mode was classified as an abnormal status.

This opportunity has made it clear.

Jang Su-ho’s Berserker mode is due to his addiction to darkness.

I’ll have to experiment more with the details later, but for now, the chances of losing your mind to madness have been significantly reduced.

Jang Su-ho’s preparations are complete.

“Go away! Hellhound Number One!”

Go and show the power of number one!

But Jang Su-ho still hesitated.

I’m still scared because I don’t know exactly what my condition is.

I smiled at the guy and reassured him.

“I told you I’d fry it for you?”

“Oh, that’s right!”

Only then did Jang Su-ho straighten his shoulders a little and slowly walk towards the swamp.

And he clenched his two large fists.

“He doesn’t have a shield?!”

Reflect on yourself.

You didn’t even know that Shielder didn’t have the shield he needed!

After this guerrilla attack, I decided to buy at least a B-grade shield or higher, and watched Jang Su-ho start beating up the crocodiles.

“You’re surprisingly good at it?”

Yang Hwa-yeon whistled softly and expressed her feelings.

Well then, it’s a hellish bread dog.

You have to do that much.

“Hey! He’s big!”

“Turn it over and burst its belly, bro!”

Hellhounds Two and Three were so excited that they cheered for Jang Su-ho.

“It seems like your madness control is better than I thought, and it’s completely different from before.”

Yang Hwa-yeon, who only remembered Jang Su-ho’s appearance at the Taesan Guild, spoke with increasing surprise.

At first, Jang Su-ho hesitated because he lacked confidence, but as he gained more confidence, he began to fly.

Then, Yang Hwa-yeon asked Kang Han, who was watching Jang Su-ho’s battle with his arms crossed.

“But if we do this, the attack time will be longer. Is that okay?”

The success of a guerrilla dungeon raid is determined by time.

It’s a kind of speed game to see which guild clears the gate the fastest.

But Kang-han said without taking his eyes off Jang-su-ho.

“There’s no problem as the number of monsters is controlled appropriately. Time isn’t the issue.”

I couldn’t hide my pride.

The wheel bar has also changed the way of thinking of being strong and flexible, which seemed like it would break.

“Practicality is more important than grades. The Guild of Justice needs experience.”

Yeah, that’s what I’m saying!

“Those kids deserve to be strong.”

It was a statement that implied many things.

Pride towards the guild members who trained to become stronger even in a situation where there was nothing, and self-reproach towards myself for not being able to properly lead those guild members.

Everything was included.

Phew!

The seventh crocodile gave his order with a sound like a balloon popping.

“Haa, phew. Brother Han, I’m okay!”

Jang Su-ho, whose whole body was soaked in the thick swamp water, ran toward us with a broad smile.

“Brother Ji-sung, this time, you should save your energy.”

“Yeah, that sounds good.”

Han Ji-seong’s magic wasn’t meant to be used on those types of mobs.

Han Ji-seong must have been happy to see the young guild members’ performance, as his face brightened as he answered.

“Hyung! Did you see me? Doesn’t it feel so good?”

As Jang Su-ho ran up to him, Kang Han took a step to the side.

Yes, no matter how much you love your younger sibling and colleague, you can’t embrace them when they come back from playing in dirty water.

That was when I fully understood that feeling.

Kang-han put his sword, which he had been holding in his hand, into the subspace.

And then, passing Jangsuho, I walked straight towards the swamp.

Ah, is it Kang-han’s turn now?

Yang Hwa-yeon asked with a smiling voice towards that strong man.

“You weren’t planning on letting the kids handle it all?”

Then Kang-han answered briefly.

“I need to become stronger too.”

Then he put his right hand into the mouth of the swamp.

It seemed as if several question marks appeared above the heads of a group of crocodiles, where I thought another hunter was about to pounce.

The change began in Kang-han’s eyes.

The green eyes that were like the green forest of the jungle seemed to have yellow sparks flying out, and soon the entire pupils were dyed gold.

And the moment his right arm gained strength.

Kwaaaaah!

Khuuuung!

Ugh, ugh!

With all sorts of colorful screams, the crocodiles at the entrance began to oxidize and disappear one by one.

“You’ve spread the current through the swamp itself.”

I didn’t know there was such a method.

Well, even a swamp is water.

If you go into the underwater dungeon later, Kang might be the strongest.

“That guy, he trained so hard.”

“That’s scary. That’s S-class.”

“I got goosebumps just now.”

The crocodile’s scream concerto ended shortly after.

And when all the monsters guarding the swamp were oxidized, the swamp also disappeared.

The ground that had been a swamp until just a moment ago now appeared to be cracked open, as if there had been no life at all.

And there were a few items scattered on that desolate land.

These were the things left behind by the monster when it died.

I ran faster than anyone else and checked their information.

[ Crocodile leather ( D )

: Materials for making armor. ]

[ Crocodile Teeth ( D )

: Upgrade material for martial arts weapons.]

As the dead crocodiles were not of high grade, the items they dropped were also not of high grade.

These are the so-called ‘junk items’.

But there are quite a lot of them.

At this rate, you should be able to make a pretty nice profit.

‘Is this by any chance an effect of my skill?’

[The skill ‘Even dried squid produces water when squeezed’ applies equally to all members of the guild.]

The system answered quickly.

Oh, that’s right.

It’s as salty as squid.

“Kids, pick everything up quickly!”

There was no time to leisurely feel each and every emotion.

As the swamp disappeared, the boss monster that had been leisurely sunbathing woke up.

The Crocodile King’s large, cloudy eyes found us running around, picking up items, and a swamp that had dried up and disappeared.

Boom, boom!

The ground shook every time the creature moved its massive body.

And then the thing opened its huge mouth wide and roared.

“Kwaaaaaaaaaa-!”

“Ugh!”

It was a scream so loud it hurt my ears.

And the system window notified me as if it was warning me.

[ The “Cunning Crocodile King” is furious! ]

[The Crocodile King will not stop until he kills all the invaders who have destroyed his kingdom.]

[The attack power of the “Cunning Crocodile King” increases by 30% due to the effect of rage!]

The faces of the guild members and Hunter Yang Hwa-yeon hardened as if it was a common notification to everyone.

The attack power of C-class boss monsters increases by 30%.

I had a feeling it was going to be a tough fight.

And that wasn’t the only crisis.

“Krrrr… … .”

Another sound came from right next to me.

Jang Su-ho’s eyes, which had been like a golden retriever happily rolling around in a puddle just a moment ago, were gradually turning red.

Jang Su-ho’s Berserker mode reacted to the Crocodile King’s roar.

“Jang Su-ho.”

Fortunately, Jang Su-ho looked at me when I called out to him, as if he had completely lost his mind.

“Whew, come on, hooray.”

I was taking deep breaths, trying hard not to give in to madness myself.

I lifted my magpie legs and placed both hands on Jang Su-ho’s cheeks.

And once again I tried to purify the darkness.

[Use the skill ‘Dark Purification’.]

[ Purification efficiency increases due to the target’s special constitution. ]

[ Target’s Darkness Addiction Rate 35% ]

[ The target’s abnormal status ‘Berserker’ madness is reduced. ]

Thank goodness it worked.

As soon as the purification skill worked, the red energy in Jang Su-ho’s eyes faded.

“You’re okay. Do you understand, Jang Su-ho?”

Pyoro-rong-

《 ♥ 17 》

Jang Su-ho’s favorability rating has risen significantly.

“Hoo, hoo.”

Jang Su-ho’s heavy breathing gradually subsided.

And the guy who returned to his usual gentle face said to Kang-han.

“Brother, I think I can do it. Please tell me what to do.”
