The Owner of the Healing Therapy Shop is World Rank 0
Chapter 22
Sohee, who had been peering into the store, took a step forward.
Just as she was about to reach for the store door, her head naturally turned to the right.
Someone was approaching. And with a very familiar flow of magical power at that.
“Tch.”
Sohee clicked her tongue briefly and left the front of the store.
As she hid herself in the shadows, noisy voices filled the quiet alley in front of the store.
“No, I’m telling you I’m right!”
“What if I’m right?”
“I’m the guild leader!”
“I’m the vice guild leader though.”
“You won’t give up on a single word!”
It was Shinnara from Shilla Guild and her secretary Kim Jinwoon.
These two had been arguing about the same topic for over a day. The topic of conversation was this:
‘The reason Nara’s skin suddenly improved’
Both believed it was the effect of the mist Yebichnna had given them, but what they each claimed was different.
Nara insisted that Yebichnna had made this mist with some kind of skill, while Jinwoon scolded Nara asking if she really believed that nonsense, saying it was impossible for a healer to have enchanter abilities unless they had undergone a second awakening.
Their positions were evenly matched.
In the end, the two decided to confirm whose words were correct, and came to find Yebichnna’s store as soon as the first alumni meeting ended.
“Yebichnna!”
Nara opened the door without hesitation.
In contrast, Jinwoon held out a box of drinks and cat supplies while bowing his waist properly.
“I’ve heard a lot about you. I’m Kim Jinwoon, vice guild leader of Shilla Guild. I also serve as Guild Leader Shinnara’s secretary.”
“Ah! Hello. I’ve heard a lot about you too. I heard you help my sister a lot.”
“Hmph, help indeed.”
Nara plopped down on the sofa and crossed her legs. Jinwoon gave her a look indicating it was rude behavior, but she deliberately turned her head away.
“Sister, what’s wrong?”
“He doesn’t listen to me at all.”
“Didn’t you say he was someone you were grateful for before?”
“Wh-when did I ever!”
Nara’s face turned red in an instant. Jinwoon was also surprised to learn that she had been speaking well of him, his eyes widening behind his glasses.
“Last time there…”
“Y-Yebichnna, you know that mist you gave me, the one with the lavender scent!”
Nara, who was stingy with compliments, hurriedly changed the subject while taking out the mist she had carefully brought.
“Oh, did you try this? How was the effect? Was it good?”
“Can’t you see my skin? I really have baby skin now. I probably have better skin than a newborn baby.”
“Wow, there really isn’t a single blemish?”
Nara excitedly showed her face to Yebichnna.
Jinwoon stood at a distance, watching the scene with a slight smile.
Then suddenly, Nara glared at Jinwoon with fierce eyes.
“But Yebichnna, you made this mist yourself, right?”
“Huh? Why?”
“Well, this guy says this mist wasn’t made by you. He’s saying it’s not an item made by another enchanter that you just added fragrance to? He’s asking how you, being a healer type, could make items.”
“Ah…”
When Yebichnna made an awkward smile, Jinwoon internally confirmed his victory, thinking ‘as expected’.
“I don’t mean to be rude, but I thought it might be an item made by another enchanter that you just added fragrance to. Since you said you’re a healer type, I find it hard to believe you also have enchanting abilities.”
Jinwoon pointed to the horn-rimmed glasses placed on the shelf and continued.
“I know that item is also a work by Enchanter Shinnara. I’m curious if the mist was also made by Shinnara or another enchanter.”
“I told you it wasn’t me so many times! But you still don’t believe it?! Whose words are right? I’ll definitely keep the secret so don’t worry!”
“I’m not sure why it shows as ‘unmeasurable’ on the item appraisal device, but it would certainly be easy to cause misunderstandings because of that.”
Yebichnna asked them to wait a moment and disappeared into the back of the store.
She thought she should explain her skills to some extent to Nara, and it seemed convenient to let them know at this opportunity.
The two people left behind exchanged glances and growled at each other to prepare to pay 500,000 won.
Soon Yebichnna came out of the workshop with a small tube-shaped cosmetic in her hand.
“This is ordinary massage oil. I’ll try using my skill now.”
Yebichnna held the small tube in her hand.
“Muscle relaxation.”
When she muttered lowly, both hunters clearly saw invisible magical power being sucked into the oil.
At the same time, the two people’s fortunes diverged.
“I awakened as a healer that’s a bit difficult to explain. Like this.”
Yebichnna looked at Jinwoon with a slightly apologetic expression. Then she sprayed oil on Nara’s hand and slowly massaged it.
Nara concentrated all her nerves on Yebichnna’s touch.
She was full of anticipation about how the ordinary massage oil might have changed.
“Oh, oh, oh!”
Nara cried out. It was because of the status window that appeared before her eyes.
“Hey, Jinwoon! Muscle stiffness rate decreased by 20%, risk of minor injury occurrence decreased appeared!”
“What?”
Jinwoon looked at Yebichnna’s oil with an expression of disbelief.
“Should I do it for you too, Jinwoon?”
He didn’t know what to say and kept opening and closing his mouth.
Since he saw the skill with his own eyes, it was certain he lost the bet…
To think such a buff would appear from just one massage.
Moreover, the magical power used when using that skill was just a small amount that could fit in a teacup.
Jinwoon’s mind began to work rapidly.
This, this is a jackpot.
He took out a sheet of paper from the briefcase he always carried.
“Yebichnna, is it possible to mass-produce that oil? Shilla Guild would like to purchase it exclusively. If possible, all the items you make. We’ll match whatever price you want. Right, Guild Leader?”
“Eh? Me?”
“She says she will. I’ll bring a detailed contract again tomorrow…”
That’s right. The reason Nara was able to successfully grow an entertainment company and subsequently establish a guild was all thanks to Jinwoon’s eye for people and the future.

I ended up completing the Quest unexpectedly.
It was thanks to the semi-forced sale of the oil I had applied to Nara’s hand.
Except for breaking out in a cold sweat trying to stop my sister who was demanding I hand over everything I had including this oil right away, I felt good.
Why? Because I earned one million won!
“One million won for one oil!”
The days when I lost sleep worrying about monthly rent at the end of every month flashed by like a panorama.
Now I don’t have to live eating only rice with water and kimchi, and I don’t have to struggle desperately to reduce gas and electricity bills even a little.
I was deeply moved.
After washing cleanly and lying on the bed, there was no paradise like this.
I checked the clock.
I had already heard through the community that Senior Jinseong had departed, and at this time, he would have probably arrived at his destination.
I turned on the TV and switched to the Korean Hunter public broadcasting channel.
Sure enough, the screen showed reporters gathered at Ulaanbaatar International Airport.
[The country Korea chose after Japan was Mongolia. The exact reason for choosing Mongolia has not yet been clearly revealed.]
[Given that Hunter Gangjinseong officially invited Korean broadcasting companies, there’s speculation that there might be some political reason behind it.]
“He invited broadcasting companies?”
Suddenly, words I had said flashed through my mind.
‘Even if I can’t follow directly, I’ll wait while watching the broadcast…’
“No way, surely not…”
