261. Business interruption 2
“I can’t see myself!”
“Aigoo…”
“Tsk tsk, that’s why you’re bluffing that doesn’t work.”
“I’ll have to call a healer.”
The onlookers in the seats thought that Kang Seung-hyun would be beaten to death with his fists.
One of them threw a fist loaded with magic that was so powerful that even a commoner could understand it, and the other one just swung an ordinary tree branch normally.
‘Common sense makes sense.’
It was then.
A blue light emanated from Kang Seung-hyun’s eyes, and he said,
“Wow!!”
“…!”
I laid down the branch I was holding and lightly blocked Breck’s fist.
“What is it?”
“You blocked that attack with just a branch?”
“Does this make sense?”
Defending a mighty fist with a single twig?
Those who looked at it with sullen faces and those who looked at it with anxious faces couldn’t help but be astonished the moment they saw the scene.
‘How did this happen?’
But what surprised me the most was Breck, the person who swung his fist.
He must have swung his fist with all his might, but he couldn’t even break a tree branch, let alone reach Kang Seung-hyun.
‘I just swung a twig I picked up on the street, but I can’t beat it?’
Breck clenched his fists and swung his arms once more.
Whoa!
Still, each movement was so powerful that a gust of wind raged through it,
but Pak!
Pak!
grasp!
Kang Seung-hyun blocked them all with a relaxed face.
Even with the other hand tucked into the pocket of the gown.
‘What the hell is this kid! What!’
It was clear what skill he was using by looking at his eyes shining blue.
But I couldn’t figure out what it was.
‘Why can’t I feel any magical power!’
Breck’s head was on the verge of exploding.
When you don’t know the opponent’s skill, it’s basic to guess by reading the magic you feel in your body.
However, I couldn’t feel the mana anywhere on my body, let alone the tree branch Kang Seung-hyun was holding.
“If you don’t know, you must be right.”
“…!”
grasp!
Finally, Kang Seung-hyun quickly deflected Breck’s fist and slapped Breck’s neck.
“Cheak!”
Struck by a branch, Breck staggered back.
As if beaten with a hard iron club.
“Couldn’t this be the end? That’s a little disappointing.”
This is why you shouldn’t use a special move as soon as you start.
Kang Seung-hyun knew it well enough to experience it firsthand.
“Well, originally, really strong people are the way to hit people with normal hits without skill, but I guessed it roughly because they said they had a special move from the start.”
“This tooth…”
A tendon rose from Breck’s forehead.
The simpler it is, the better the aggro will work.
“Where is this cheeky!”
The guy squeezed out all his remaining strength and rushed towards Kang Seung-hyeon.
“There’s nothing more to look at,”
Kang Seung-hyun grabbed a tree branch like a skewer and said,
“My special move didn’t work, so there’s no way such a blind attack would work.”
It pierced the wrist of the rushing Breck.
Grasp!
“Quaaaaagh!”
Breck slumped to the floor screaming.
It must have been an insignificant, ordinary tree branch, but it was as if it had been pierced by some kind of holy spear.
“This can’t be…”
“What did I just see?”
“What is that friend’s true identity?”
“I don’t know.”
“Such a strong man with a single twig…”
Even if he fought with a normal weapon, it would be surprising, but to subdue him using an ordinary twig that did not contain even 1 gram of magical power.
The onlookers who witnessed the whole scene were half stunned.
“That bastard!”
“Breck!”
The members of the Simua Rize Church, who were watching from behind, tried to intervene in the fight as if they couldn’t stand it any longer.
Chow!
Then, red thorns rose from under their feet and blocked them.
“This one!”
“No manners. If you get involved in a one-on-one fight, you’ll use it.”
I hurriedly turned my head and saw Alec smirking and stretching his arms.
“I didn’t want to hear that this side was mean too, so I kept quiet.”
“Kuh…”
They backed away as if they couldn’t help it.
It was because he instinctively realized that he had to defeat Alec in order to engage in a one-on-one fight.
“Nice support.”
“If anything, I want you to change players.”
Alec muttered a half grunt, but said nothing more.
‘By the way, did no one really notice?’
Seunghyun Kang looked at the tree branch in his hand.
I don’t feel any magical power, so it may seem like I haven’t used any skills to others, but
[Out-focus ON]
[Specify the area of effect.]
In fact, Seung-Hyun Kang activated [Out-Focus] right before his fist touched the tree branch. did.
‘The area of effect is this tree branch.’
Then, as I felt the branch in my hand more clearly, the stamina of my whole body began to concentrate.
‘I thought it would work as expected.’
As a wild healer, he only used [Out-Focus] for treatment first, but its original purpose was to greatly increase power by concentrating his body’s strength in one place.
‘I have no choice but to be strong.’
Stamina was difficult to handle delicately and difficult to draw out compared to physical strength or magic power, but increasing its capacity was much easier than the other two energies.
As a result, the stamina that Kang Seung-hyun possessed was many times, dozens of times more than others.
‘I put all my stamina into it.’
Thanks to this, when using [Out of Focus], even a normal attack swinging a tree branch was able to extract more damage than a moderate skill.
‘Well, the performance is good, but the downside is pretty big, so I usually use it as a special move…’
Because the whole body’s stamina is concentrated in one place, it’s burdensome to use it while moving, and the defense of the rest of the body is virtually zero.
In short, it is a skill that has its pros and cons.
‘It’s not even a disadvantage against these guys.’
Kang Seung-hyun smiled and approached Breck.
So, he was the perfect opponent to test [Out of Focus] for combat.
“I thought how great he was because he acted so conceited… This is the end of our industry.”
“Ooh, don’t be ridiculous!”
“Stop surrendering? I don’t think there’s any point in fighting any more.”
“Do you think I became stronger because I suffered so much to do something like surrender?”
Unable to hold back his anger, Breck screamed and ran towards Kang Seung-hyeon.
“Then I can’t help it.”
Fu-wook!
Chow!
Kang Seung-hyeon activated [Cut] and blew off the guy’s wrist.
Originally, it wouldn’t be so easily cut, but it was because there was no more magic power left in the guy’s body.
“Aaaaaaagh!”
“Please save your mana next time.”
[Out-focus OFF]
Kang Seung-hyun turned off the [Out-focus] while shaking off the blood that splattered on the branch.
Then, the stamina that had been concentrated in the branch in his hand gradually returned to his whole body.
“What the hell…”
“Why why?”
The members of the church muttered with dejected faces.
In front of their eyes, their wrists were blown off, but they couldn’t say anything.
This is entirely Bregg’s fault, and quarrels within the village are usually overlooked unless they kill for a legitimate cause.
“All of you… what are you?”
“Don’t you have something to say before that?”
“…sorry.”
“You should do it to the person in question, not to me.”
However, Kang Seung-hyun smiled and pointed at Kim Ho-jung.
“…sorry.
“sorry.”
“I apologize for being rude to my colleague.”
The devotees who had been paying attention bowed their heads and apologized.
“Well, thank you for all your apologies.”
Kim Ho-jeong, who was standing there, opened her mouth with a cough.
“I’m sorry for bothering you too. Still, you shouldn’t push people around.”
“sorry.”
“I will make sure that doesn’t happen next time.”
“I’m fine because I have a strong body, but others aren’t.”
Kim Ho-jung was so easy-going that he readily accepted the apology.
‘Anyway, the spirit of Kim Ho-gu… If it were me, I would have driven him head first.’
Kang Seung-hyun drank the stamina potion as if he didn’t like it.
“Your tongue is amazing!”
“It was really good! If it had been a bet, it would have been great!”
“What the hell did you do?”
“How can you be so strong?”
At that moment, onlookers who had been paying attention flocked to Kang Seung-hyun.
Taking a quick look around, it seems that the people who received the publicity posters earlier also flocked to it.
‘Looks like I overturned someone else’s table.’
Kang Seung-hyeon looked at the three-day aging adventurers.
Originally, the purpose of the Simua Rize Church would have been to use those friends to attract followers and to inflate the reputation of the church at once.
However, before they could properly show their skills, they were robbed by an adventurer passing by, so at least no followers would follow them right now.
‘I’m going to overturn it, so I’m going to smash it into pieces.’
Seunghyun Kang smiled and opened his mouth.
“Ah, I’m not actually a combat adventurer, so it might be difficult for me to help you guys.”
“Eh? Aren’t you a fighter?”
“Then what?”
“My main job is a healer.”
Kang Seung-hyun took out the magic potion and needle and picked up Breck’s severed hand.
Then, after lightly washing the wrist,
[sew]
Pabababababat!
The cut surfaces were sewn together at great speed.
[Out-focus ON]
[Specify the effect range.]
‘Breck’s wrist.’
Then, when [Out-Focus] and [Cure Judgment] were activated, it began to heal at an unbelievable speed for a wrist that had just been severed.
“hmm? What are you doing?”
“I’m sewing with a needle…?”
“Is that therapy?”
At first, the onlookers who were puzzled said,
“Huh? uh?”
“Is your wrist healing?”
“Is that going to happen?”
As the severed wrist began to heal, he muttered,
“Move your hand.”
“…”
The moment Breck moved his finger with a bewildered face,
“Wooh!”
“Ooooh!!”
“What is it that you really sewed up and fixed it?”
“Are you crazy?”
“Your brother is really amazing!”
“You’re not wearing any heels right now, are you?”
They started cheering explosively.
If Kang Seung-hyun used heel normally, he wouldn’t have been this enthusiastic.
It’s basic common sense in Azul Continent to attach a broken wrist with a heel.
However, he had no choice but to be enthusiastic because he showed a new method that had never been seen before, such as stitching the wrist without a heel.
“I thought you were only good at fighting, but you even heal?”
“It’s just a scam!”
“Hey, what the hell are you!”
“Let’s call it a wild healer who heals without healing.”
“Yamae Healer?”
Seunghyun Kang looked around and opened his mouth.
Now, no one cares about the members of the church, and everyone here is paying attention to themselves.
“Oh, my name is Kang Seung-hyun. I am currently staying in Hind Village. Any kind of treatment is possible, and because it is treated without using heals, it is possible to treat black magicians and those who reject divine power.”
Kang Seung-hyun did not miss the opportunity and started promoting and selling himself.
‘Usually, 70% of people leave after watching the treatment, but…’
Now, with the effect of [Out-Focus], the recovery speed has been greatly shortened, and
‘they are more powerful than those who became stronger in three days. Of course, it’s much more interesting to treat someone who applies and heals without healing.’
Thanks to the Church of Simua Rize, the degree of attention has increased to 500%.
“Brother, don’t you want to come to our party?”
“I’ll give you a hefty bonus!”
“I have a party I belong to, so I will decline the party offer. Instead, healer requests are always welcome, and adventurers’ treatment costs are 50% of normal healers. Commoners without money receive fruits and vegetables, so feel free to find them.”
Thanks to this, all the onlookers that the Church of Simua Rize had been working hard to do business with were passed on to Kang Seung-hyun.
“Are you thinking of joining the party?”
“Can a real black magician heal?”
“Brother, show me that one more time!”
“Someone I know is looking for a bodyguard…”
When I looked around, people gathered like clouds.
If I delay here any longer, I’ll be bothered.
‘Should I get lost at this point?’
Kang Seung-hyun gave notice to Alec and Kim Ho-jung.
Ho-jung Kim did not seem to understand, but Alec, who was quick-witted, dragged Ho-jung Kim and disappeared behind him.
“For more information, please contact Hind Village {Bitz Falls Inn}. Enough then.”
In this way, Kang Seung-hyeon completely ruined the church’s business and left leisurely.
