14. I Was Happy Being a Despised F-Rank Healer, You Know? (8)
I had tried to eliminate as many elements as possible that would make it seem like the school was giving me special treatment, but there were still some unavoidable things.
Special measures that had to be endured for the future.
‘I was worried about how it would look if those aspects seemed disagreeable.’
Anyway, these gentle heroes.
…A slightly bitter smile formed.
From now on, it would be difficult to actively work together to save their lives like I had until now.
The dungeons that would be opened to the students of this class after the first semester finals would become more dangerous.
Originally, it wouldn’t have been dangerous enough to be life-threatening, but in the original work, the dungeons that this year’s first-years would experience in the second semester were all unstable and frequently showed rapid grade increases.
Even if they somehow survived that situation, if ‘that incident’ broke out, the possibility of everyone dying would increase.
Not only did I not know when and where they would all go, but I had more important things to do.
‘Both not getting caught being a decoy, and preventing the destruction.’
In that sense, if luck was bad, today could be the last time I saw all their faces at once like this.
‘Still, I’ll help as much as I can.’
Maybe I had been influenced by those kids too.
For a small citizen, wasn’t the world something to observe rather than save?
Yet now I was only doing actions that wouldn’t feel too out of place to them.
“…I’ll try it for a month first and then decide whether to continue, but I think I probably will. It was something I wanted to do in the first place.”
When I said this with a bright smile, several people looked shy.
This kind of thing never changes no matter how much time passes.
“A related notice will be posted on the hallway bulletin board soon. When you need separate support in the form of potion sets, just contact me directly!”
Actually, the teacher said they were also making an app.
‘An app just for me!’
It was really embarrassing, but it was the best way to avoid interfering with my work with Yuhan Seong’s party.
‘I should tell them about the app when it’s completed.’
Since the school didn’t know yet that I was a manufacturer who even made S-rank potions, they had set limits on the amount of potions I could take orders for per week.
They wanted me to only take orders and provide support within those limits if possible?
It seemed like that was part of the Jin Hali Education that the teacher had mentioned…
“If you need anything, absolutely anything! You have to tell me. Got it?”
“Ugh.”
Embarrassed sighs came from here and there, but I didn’t retract my statement and made eye contact with each person to get their answers.
Then I spotted one kid who was looking at me with some kind of anxiety.
‘That’s, so that’s Goi-deun, right?’
Did she have a memory skill?
Goi-deun was one of the Class 8 students who had awakened to A-rank in recent months.
In the original work, I remember she was trampled to death by the boss in the dungeon where Jin Hali died.
‘Why is she looking at me like someone who did something wrong?’
Fortunately, the question didn’t last long.
During the break time after I finished my announcement.
Goi-deun approached and stood by my seat.
Yuhan Seong, who was near me, automatically looked at her.
But Goi-deun didn’t give even a glance to the handsome man’s wary gaze and said.
“Hali. Um.”
“Yeah, speak comfortably, Eun-ah!”
“Could we talk for a moment…”
My friends, including Yuhan Seong, don’t really guard against Class 8 kids when they approach.
‘Except for Isang Hee.’
Thanks to that, it had been a really long time since I’d talked with Isang Hee.
Anyway, for that reason.
“Sure, sounds good!”
When I nodded, Yuhan Seong looked somewhat suspicious but showed no signs of worry as he alternately looked at me and Eun-i, then mouthed ‘go ahead’ to me.
Eun-i nervously led me away, leaving the lecture building to a quiet back road, stopping under the roof tiles of one of the old school buildings.
Then she bowed deeply at the waist.
“I’m sorry!”
“…Huh? Suddenly, what for?”
“I researched you, Hali!”
What kind of talk is this now?
I opened my eyes wide.
***
“It probably started from then. When the Crescent Dungeon broke out.”
The ones who cleared the Crescent Dungeon at that time were Yuhan Seong’s team that he had formed.
However, she said that the dungeons other kids had entered also became unstable all at once.
The dungeon Goi-deun entered was the same.
“At that time, Do Ha-yeon, Kim Myeong-hyeon and I were in a group.”
Do Ha-yeon was a female student in Class 8 with a relay skill, a small kid with gray hair.
‘She became B-rank now, they said.’
And Kim Myeong-hyeon was a sound wave ability user.
Similarly B-rank, and all three of them were E-rank when they enrolled.
Perhaps because they achieved a three-level rise, their aura was definitely different from what I saw on the first day.
Their appearance seemed more glamorous too.
“I see. I heard other places were unstable then too, what happened?”
Setting aside the meaningless talk about researching me, when I asked with concern, Goi-deun became even more dejected and said.
“I survived thanks to you. The potions you distributed then were as effective as being treated by a decent-grade healer.”
Right, they said Class 8 was buzzing about my potion effects then.
So she researched because of that?
But was there anything about me worth researching?
“Right. I researched using the leftover potions you gave me.”
“I see. But why is that something to be sorry about?”
“Well.”
When I asked, tilting my head, Goi-deun said.
“Because I didn’t get your permission.”
“…”
I blinked for a moment, then belatedly understood what she meant.
“Um, I was the one who gave it, and from the moment you received it, it became yours. It’s up to you how you use it.”
“What! That’s not right, Hali.”
Goi-deun was a kid who usually didn’t speak loudly.
I saw her observing more often than making her own voice heard.
“Po, potions are like your skill. Through that potion, I could have inferred your skill.”
“My skill? Wow.”
“Wow, you say…”
Come to think of it, she could remember everything she heard and saw, and could recall everything within the reach of her mana.
The information accumulated that way could also be reborn in new forms through Goi-deun’s mana…
“Don’t tell me you opened clairvoyance?”
“What? That’s a legendary skill. There’s no way.”
Goi-deun waved her hands dismissively.
‘It hasn’t opened yet.’
Clairvoyance.
Currently, it’s an SSS-rank skill that only Yuhan Seong possesses, but in fact, that clairvoyance is an ability that the young king of the Other World had.
Before the dungeon where that king appears as a boss emerges, if the number of people with the king’s abilities increased, the survival rate would go up.
‘That was the dungeon after the festival dungeon, right?’
Yuhan Seong’s clairvoyance is an ability to discern someone’s potential, but usually S-rank and below clairvoyance was literally a researcher’s ability specialized in observation.
In the original work, this fact was revealed in the latter half when an insect ability user awakened it.
I thought that Goi-deun, who shows researcher characteristics, would also be able to awaken clairvoyance.
‘It was just my assumption.’
Too bad.
But it’ll be soon.
Given Goi-deun’s growth rate, and since she’s a member of Class 8, the adversary of the Annihilation Dungeon.
“You really are something.”
Goi-deun smiled slightly and pushed up her glasses as she spoke quietly.
“The skill I awakened is dissection.”
“Huh?”
Dissection, like dissecting frogs?
Suddenly, I began to get a sense of what kind of research Goi-deun had mentioned.
Remembering the friends who often warned me about things like seeing light powder in potions and their effects being particularly good.
“Yeah. And as my rank increased, I became able to return to the physical abilities from when memories were formed.”
“That’s really invinci— ah, wait, wait. Eun-deun?”
“Yeah.”
“Why are you telling me all this? You should be careful!”
“Be careful?”
“There are skills you should keep hidden, you know. Geez, how surprising.”
“It’s you though?”
“What do you mean it’s me?”
When I asked back in confusion, Eun-deun also tilted her head.
“I’m telling my lifesaver, so who else would I tell?”
And she said.
“I, no, we belong to you.”
