The Heroine Saves the World

The heroine saves the world

Episode 39

I didn’t notice it at first.

As a non-combatant, I didn’t know that it was life and death.

[Use the skill ‘Body Healing’.]

[ Consumed 50 stamina to heal the target’s wounds . ]

Because I was so busy treating Lee Yu-chan that I couldn’t even think.

I lost 50 stamina all at once and became sleepy again.

I quickly took out a health potion from the subspace and drank it all down in one gulp.

[ Detected drinking ‘Stamina Potion’. ]

[ Drug abuse is dangerous . ]

[ Excessive use of potions may result in penalties . ]

Then what do you want me to do?

While the system’s warning was being cleared away, Lee Yu-chan, who had been lying down as if dead, opened his eyes with difficulty.

“… … Ugh.”

“Lee Yu-chan, are you coming to your senses?”

“Yes, Lady Yeoju.”

“Why? Is there anything else that hurts?”

“Blood, damage.”

“What are you talking about?”

When I took my eyes off Lee Yu-chan and raised my head, the surroundings had already changed.

Yang Hwa-yeon was blocking my path with a stern expression, and Han Ji-seong, who was staggering due to using a lot of magical power, had already stepped back and stood near me.

At that moment, I realized belatedly that the strange feeling that had been stabbing my scalp for a while was a murderous intent directed at me.

“That kid is out of his mind.”

Yang Hwa-yeon gritted her teeth as flames rose from her fists.

And then I met Jang Soo-ho’s red eyes, glaring at me from beyond her.

‘Ah, I’m the next target.’

It was a gut feeling that needed no further explanation.

At the same time, Jang Su-ho started rushing towards me.

Where did he throw away his shield? The blood the monster left behind left black dots with every step he took.

I shouted at Kanghan without hesitation.

“Fry it!”

Phage crackle-!

Kang-han blasted a fairly powerful lightning bolt at Jang-su-ho.

However, Jang Su-ho only stumbled for a moment, and instead, his running speed became faster.

“Jang Su-ho!”

Kang-han used lightning once more, shouting Jang-su-ho’s name as if he was screaming.

Parts, parts, parts!

This time it worked a little.

Jang Su-ho’s speed has slowed down.

And finally, when the ball of electricity that had come flying in in a lumpy form hit Jang Su-ho’s back.

thud!

Finally, Jang Su-ho collapsed.

It was just a few steps away from me.

“Wake up, you punk!”

Yang Hwa-yeon rushed in without missing a beat and subdued Jang Su-ho by pinning him to the ground.

Still, the way he struggled to escape somehow looked like a wild beast refusing to be tamed.

“Hey, Jang Su-ho.”

“It’s dangerous. Step back.”

Kang Han, who had been helping Yang Hwa Yeon subdue Jang Su Ho, spoke to me.

For a moment, I thought, ‘Could that be so?’

But I couldn’t just leave Jang Su-ho alone because he was a little scary.

“Oh, no. Just a moment.”

I approached Jang Su-ho and extended my hand.

Kanghan didn’t stop me anymore.

He only suppressed Jang Su-ho more forcefully, to the point where the tendons on his entire forearm stood out.

“Jang Su-ho, it’s me. Give it to me. Look at me.”

I put my hand on Jang Su-ho’s forehead, who was staring at me even though he was lying on the ground.

The guy’s body temperature was as hot as if he were on fire.

[Use the skill ‘Dark Purification’.]

[Purification efficiency is reduced due to the target’s abnormal status.]

[ Stamina 1 → Purification rate 0.5% ]

Fortunately, though, the effect is better than when Han Ji-seong was in power.

‘What’s my remaining stamina?’

[Current stamina 65/100]

‘I’m going to purify it by 20%.’

At least you’ll come to your senses by now.

[Requires 40 stamina.]

I muttered on purpose while listening to the system’s voice.

“Just in case, I’ll try using my healing skill.”

With a feeling of exhaustion and exhaustion, the system notified me that the skill had been used.

And fortunately, Jang Su-ho’s eyes slowly began to come into focus.

“Kreuk… … Kreuk… … .”

When he came to his senses, Jang Su-ho’s eyes wavered as if he couldn’t understand how he was being subdued by his colleagues.

“Why, why me… … .”

And soon I fell into despair.

“Have I changed again?”

“Let me go now. I think I’ve come to my senses.”

At my words, Yang Hwa-yeon and Kang Han released their restraints and stepped back.

“Anyone hurt? Did I hurt anyone else… ? … No?”

“doesn’t exist.”

“Nobody got hurt?”

“Oh, no one. I told you. I won’t leave it like that.”

“thank god.”

Jang Su-ho, as if trying to come to his senses, groaned as he hit his forehead against the ground several times, making a thud sound.

“Nobody got hurt, nobody.”

And Jang Su-ho raised his head and spoke to me with blood dripping from his forehead.

“Thank you, Nayeoju.”

Pyoro-rong-

《 ♥ 20 》

Jang Su-ho’s favorability rating soared in an instant.

But last time, like Kang Han, a word followed after the favorability.

《 ♥ 20 : Master 》

Master? Master?

Are you a citizen of a democratic society with equal rights?

Is this okay?

While I was mumbling, Jang Su-ho sat up on his own and bowed his head to everyone.

“I’m sorry, everyone.”

“… … As long as you’re okay, that’s fine.”

Han Ji-seong said as he pressed Jang Su-ho’s shoulder, which was slumped downward.

“Anyway, it’s over. Congratulations on your first clear.”

Yang Hwa-yeon spoke energetically, as if trying to lighten the mood.

“Yeah, we cleared it!”

Lee Yu-eul also agreed.

“Thank you all for your hard work.”

As Kang-han said that, I, who had recovered from Jang-su-ho’s master’s attack, began to feel it little by little.

To be honest, I was a bit complacent in thinking that it was just a guerrilla gate.

However, the dungeon raid that I experienced firsthand was much, much more dangerous than I had thought.

Hunters really fight for their lives every time.

“First, I’ll replenish my stamina and then treat everyone.”

It wasn’t just Lee Yu-chan who got hurt.

Except for Yang Hwa-yeon, who did not directly participate in the battle, everyone in the Jeongui Guild had wounds big and small.

I took another bottle of potion out of the subspace and drank it.

“Ah, okay.”

As I felt my stamina rising, I reached out to Jang Su-ho, who was sitting in front of me.

[ Detected drinking ‘Stamina Potion’. ]

[ Drug abuse is dangerous . ]

[ You will receive a penalty for potion abuse . ]

“What is this?”

A loud ringing sound was heard from somewhere, and then a round plate appeared before my eyes.

The turntable began to spin furiously before I could read what was written on it, and soon stopped.

I listened to the ticking sound of a cheap slot machine for a moment, and then a system window popped up with flashing, noisy effects.

[ Penalty Random Draw Results! ]

[ You will fall into a ‘faint’ state for 16 hours. ]

“Fuck, like this, the back of the head—”

Chinya.

I started to fall sideways without even finishing my sentence.

And I thought to myself, half-resigned.

Jang Su-ho, why are you so surprised?

Master, please hold me so I don’t hit my head.

* * *

10 minutes later.

* * *

‘The system is a bastard.’

As soon as I came to my senses, before I even opened my eyes, I started swearing at the system.

‘Random Penalty Draw?’

I’m so shocked I can’t even speak.

Actually, it’s a bit weak.

Anyway, I knew this world system was a back-of-the-head specialist hunter, but I never thought they’d hide such a big bummer.

‘So in the end, the potion is limited to five bottles.’

In a way, it makes sense.

If there is no such limit to me consuming stamina to cure physical and dark addiction, it is as if there is no limit to the number of times I can use the skill.

‘No, but that’s true!’

The annoying system just stays quiet even though I’m cursing at it like this.

“Ugh.”

I finally sighed and opened my eyes.

Now, five round faces appeared alongside the familiar ceiling of the Awakened Hospital.

“Ms. Na Yeo-ju, can you see me?”

“Sister!”

“Sister, are you okay?”

“Why do you surprise people like this?”

“My lady… … .”

Everyone just says something, but when five people are talking, it’s quite noisy.

“Oh, I look fine, I’m fine, and I’m sorry for startling you.”

After giving a vague answer, he asked while rubbing his stiff body.

“I was down for about 16 hours?”

“Oh, now that you mention it, that’s true. How did you know?”

Lee Yu-chan opened his eyes wide and asked again.

“Somehow, my body feels like it just woke up around that time.”

That damn system.

It seemed like there hadn’t been any noise for an hour.

First, I checked my status window.

But I saw that something had changed.

2. Strengthen your body and mind (A)

▷ Body Healing: Consumes my stamina to heal the target’s body.

Current Stage – Beginner II

▷ Darkness Addiction Healing (EX): Reduces the target’s darkness addiction level.

The effectiveness of addiction cure is proportional to the favorability the target has toward ‘Nayeoju’.

It went up.

The body healing skill, which had been at ‘Beginner I’ until now, has been raised to ‘Beginner II’.

“What a gain.”

“What kind of gain is this?”

A new voice chimed in.

“Oh, doctor. It’s been a while.”

Every time I came, a young doctor who owed me a debt of gratitude approached me with a frown and a chart in one hand.

“It’s been a while since we last saw each other, we’re getting along well.”

“But that is… … .”

I saw it the moment I tried to laugh it off.

The doctor’s name is engraved on the white gown.

“Seo Yu Baek”

This was the appearance of Seo Yu-baek, the owner of the Awakened Hospital and a S-class healer.

‘Yeah, he was somehow handsome.’
