86. Take care of yourself 1
“It’s an honor to see you again!”
“Is that patient soldier?”
Someone said it was a Camar soldier who Kang Seung-hyun had treated earlier. The soldier revealed his name and thanked Seunghyun Kang once again.
“My name is Cyril Katyler of the South Gate Guard of Kamar! Thank you so much earlier!”
He almost turned into a fish man, but thanks to Kang Seung-hyeon’s cure, he was saved.
“I just did what I had to do.”
“No matter how many times I thank you, it’s not enough… Thank you so much!”
“By the way, can a Kamar soldier go around without work? It must be an emergency right now.”
Right now, all of Camar’s soldiers are stationed on the lakeside to prevent the monster from attacking.
Cyril was the only soldier roaming around the town of Camar.
“Ah, that’s what I mean… the captain forced me to take a vacation.”
“vacation?”
Cyril sighed and murmured.
He took sick leave today due to the ironic mutation. In the sense of taking a break because it must have taken a huge hit mentally.
“I have been ordered to go home and get some rest.”
Qamar soldiers usually live in quarters, but Cyril is from Qamar, so his family lives in Qamar.
“I wanted to be with my colleagues if possible, but they said they would kick me out if I didn’t come after a good rest.”
So I had no choice but to go home.
“Oh, are you from Camar? I heard that most of the Qamar soldiers are from outside.”
As a city of sorcerers, most of the people of Kamar walk the magical path.
Cases of becoming a soldier like Cyril are rare.
“My family is a family of Qamar soldiers who are proud of their history and tradition.”
Cyril said with a proud face.
He became a soldier because he had less magical power than his other brothers and was more interested in swordsmanship than magic.
“Well, it’s easier for a child with little magical power and insufficient magic talent to leave Camar or become a soldier.”
“Wizards have a bit of a bad personality.”
You can see how much the Kamar wizards ignore the soldiers just by thinking about the cure.
It’s their speciality to try to spread it once they want to have low magic power.
“By the way, what are you two doing at the government office? If you need help, I will help.”
“I came because the government office rented a tent.”
“I came to save him as a strong and tough guy. I couldn’t find a place to stay.”
“Oh no… Kang Seung-hyeon, the benefactor of the soldiers of Kamar, sleeps on the street?”
Cyril jumped up and shouted.
Saying that’s nonsense
“There’s no vacancy, so I can’t help it.”
“No… no matter what!”
The hero who solved the ironic mutation situation had no place to sleep, so he set up a tent and camped out in the city.
Cyril seemed completely incomprehensible.
“Anyway, Kamar is a warm town, so even if you stay homeless, you won’t freeze to death.”
“Once you get used to sleeping outdoors, it’s worth doing. There is also a warm blanket I bought at the magic tower.”
It is common among adventurers of the Azul Continent.
Not all inns in town have vacant rooms, and not always have money to rent inns.
“So please introduce me to a good spot to pitch a tent. I don’t know much about the geography of Camargue.”
“Let’s ask somewhere where you won’t be hungry.”
“Wait a minute!”
Cyril shouted, stopping the two people who seemed to be homeless at any moment.
“If you two don’t mind… why don’t you stay over at my house?”
“Cyril’s house?”
“It is correct to take them to a better place, but my house will be more comfortable to stay than sleeping on the street.”
Cyril’s hometown is on the outskirts of Kamar.
Although it is a bit far from the city center, there is no big problem to stay.
“I live in the guards quarters, so my room is empty now. How about the two of you using it?”
Hearing those words, Kang Seung-hyun said,
‘Wouldn’t it be uncomfortable for my family?’
I wanted to say, but
Now was not the time to pursue such a thing.
‘If you put me to bed, I’d appreciate it.’
No matter how much sleeping on the street is an adventurer’s daily life, I don’t want to sleep on the street as long as I’m human.
In addition, the city of Camar is noisy now because there are a lot of people.
“Then I’ll take care of you.”
Kang Seung-hyun and his party decided to stay at Cyril’s house.
– Cyril’s house was in the western corner of Kamar.
The architectural form is an ordinary family house that is widespread in Camar.
One peculiarity was that there was a facility similar to a watchtower on the roof of the house.
“Mother and father! I am here!”
“Cyril! Are you okay?”
“Are you not hurt anywhere?”
Upon entering the house, Cyril’s parents ran out. He must have been very worried when he heard that his son had an ironic mutation.
“Sorry for worrying you. I am all right!”
“I’m glad I’m glad…”
“I knew what was going on with you.”
The two hugged Cyril’s body and shed tears.
‘I can understand why the captain of the guard sent Cyril home.’
There was something for Cyril’s mental health, but it was also to ease the family’s worries.
I won’t be able to sleep properly until I see with my own eyes that my son is all right.
“This is Healer Kang Seung-hyun, who saved my life!”
Cyril pointed at Kang Seung-hyun and said.
“You are that healer! thank you!”
“Thank you for saving my son’s life!”
“I just did what I had to do.”
Seunghyun Kang said with a friendly smile.
Seeing such a warm welcome, I think I can stay comfortably here.
“I’m going to take care of Mr. Healer and his company at home for a few days, is that okay?”
“Of course I have to treat you!”
“Right now, Kamar is in a very messy situation, but please rest in peace!”
Of course, Cyril’s parents consented to Kang Seung-hyun and his party staying overnight.
Because if you refuse, you won’t be human.
“Have you two eaten? If you haven’t, start with eating…”
“I’m going to have to clean my room!”
Cyril’s parents started to move busily. They said that you should take care of your benefactor.
“My room is this way!”
“thank you.”
Cyril’s room was on the second floor.
The owner of the room was gone, so there was nothing in the room, but it was clean because the family cleaned it every day.
“I’ll call you when the meal is ready. Get some rest.”
Cyril lightly bowed his head and left.
-“It would be fine if I spread a blanket on the floor and sleep. I thought I was going to sleep on a stone floor.”
[Beginner warming magic circle blanket (red)]
[It gets cozy with just a little bit of magical energy.]
“I like that it’s warm.”
Kim Ho-jeong smiled and spread the blanket.
It’s the magic carpet I bought at the Mage Tower yesterday.
‘I should have bought one of those too.’
Kang Seung-hyeon, unfortunately, laid a barrier carpet for rest. It doesn’t have a warming magic effect, but it’s a rug, so it’s soft to sleep on.
‘I’ll let it go for an hour.’
Seunghyun Kang sighed as he sat on the carpet. With this, I had a place to stay for about three days.
‘I couldn’t check because I was distracted…’
Kang Seung-hyun checked the status window.
‘This newly acquired skill.’
[Golden hand] [Maintain body temperature underwater]
[Hook shot] [Arrow amplifier]
Is it because I gathered points and turned them around?
Quite a few skills came out.
‘As always, the golden hand is for night healers.’
Looking at the hook shot and arrow amplifier, it seems that Freea’s roulette also comes with normal skills that don’t have the ‘Freea’ prefix.
‘Seeing that they spread a lot of skills, I’m saying that instead of using them sparingly, I should use them in one shot.’
Perhaps the manager charges a fee when collecting points.
Seunghyun Kang turned over the screen of the status window.
‘Aside from the skills I picked up from regular roulette…’
[Harpoon Arrow★]
The other skills were quite useful, but the [Harpoon Arrow] I got this time was more useful than anything else.
‘Is this my first arrow skill?’
Up until now, I had used the items or potions I had by changing them into arrows.
So, there was a fatal flaw that the crossbow skill could not be used when the item ran out.
However, [Harpoon Arrow] is a skill that can only be activated with stamina.
You can use it freely without consumables.
‘It’s limited to underwater battles, but it’s mighty power and speed.’
It’s quite slow outside the water, but thanks to the penetration option, it can be used as a main weapon.
‘I wish I had at least one skill like this.’
Now, even if you run out of potions, you can use the [Harpoon Arrow★] to make a fuss.
‘And this skill is the most important thing.’
It is the second skill following the [Throwing] skill.
‘That’s also a skill obtained by clearing the quest created by the status window manager.’
Now the existing quest window has disappeared and a new quest has appeared.
[Q] [Please collect 10000 points.]
[Reward]: [ ]
The reward is the same ★skill.
The condition is 10000 points, doubled.
‘I heard that something special happens when I collect 4 skills.’
This is the only hint to return home, but it was too hesitant to just collect it.
‘Clearing the quest would mean making a direct deal with the manager.’
If the manager’s identity is one of the gods of the Azul continent, it’s good for your mental health to keep your distance from him.
‘Because if you obsess over the power of a god, you’ll become trash like Ail.’
I think it would be better to maintain the status quo unless it is really urgent.
“Does Kim Ho-jung play roulette?”
“I’m turning around from time to time. It’s the same.”
Kim Ho-jung played roulette with the points she had collected, but couldn’t pick out a skill that could be used right away.
“Am I not giving you quests? Let’s get some special skills too.”
“It would be nice if you could give me one.”
Kim Ho-jung has never received a message from the manager.
It’s a guess, but the status window manager doesn’t seem to be able to contact other adventurers.
“Still, after breaking the achievements bit by bit, I did find a useful skill.”
“What skill is it?”
“What is it…”
As Kim Ho-jeong was about to open her mouth, a knock came from the door.
“Meal is ready!”
Cyril came to call the two of them.
“Shall we eat and talk first?”
“I see.”
The two of them followed Cyril to the kitchen.
The table was set with fresh fish from the Pitsta Lake.
“It smells good.”
“A fish dish that is hard to eat in Hind Village!”
“I don’t know if it will suit your taste, but please enjoy it.”
The two of them were sitting down to eat.
“I’m home! Do you have guests at home?”
Along with the sound of the front door opening, someone’s voice was heard.
“Who is it?”
“Oh, he is my brother. It looks like you just got home from work.”
Cyril got up and headed for the front door.
“Hey, are you coming now?”
“Eh brother, why are you here? You’ve been fired from your guard job…”
“You’ve been on sick leave!”
“Oh yeah? I thought I was unemployed again.”
Judging from the noisy noises coming from the front door, the Earth, Azul Continent, and siblings are all like that.
“What time is it? Go early.”
“I didn’t come here to play! How hard I’ve been outside right now… Look at this!”
“Okay, okay. did you eat?”
“I have not eaten yet. If you’re eating now, mine will be the same…”
Cyril’s brother came to the kitchen carrying a heavy sack. It was an impressive woman with blue hair resembling Pitchta Lake.
“uh?”
“Uh uh!”
It wasn’t even the first time I’d seen him.
“The relic appraiser I met earlier!”
