Swordmaster Healer

Chapter 20 Isolation (1)

“A corpse.”

Bodies piled up and forming small mountains. It felt like an altar that summoned demons by offering live sacrifices.

“Team Leader Kim, it's rare for magic to play with corpses, right? ”

“I know there's not much else to report to the Bureau. ”

Seong-jun answered my question.

- It appears to be a warning.

Lischevald says, Seong-jun nods a little. Eun-su carefully stepped back and approached Seong-jun.

“I don't think there are any ambushes...... What about Kang Sung-joon's opinion? ”

She asked Seong-jun for her opinion. Just looking at that, I could see that Eun-suh's confidence in Seongjun had greatly increased.

Seong-jun's sharp gaze flashed through the darkness.

“There is no intelligence, but we should be careful because there may be other non-murderers. ”

Seong-jun told me that although I didn't have the maneuver to feel it right away, I gave up the fighting power of a no-man killer and held on to my cautious attitude because there could have been magic specialized in hiding.

“Let's get rid of the body first. I don't think we should let him do that. ”

Everyone agreed with Eunuch's opinion. Eun Joo and the two hunters stand guard while the rest of the hunters lie in line.

You don't have enough cloth to cover the bodies.

“A bucket of gin.”

The phenomenon that was recovering the body was identified as a Class S Hunter bucket.

“Are you moving on? ”

A hunter asked. You feel helpless in your voice, as though you've lost your will to the miserable bones of the dead. Eun-su raises her head.

In the briefing room, the planet said erosion dungeons are expanding rapidly. It was just a hypothesis, but if you expand beyond a certain area underground, you will go to the ground and something like Raid might happen.

“Team Leader Kim Hyun-seong... ”

Eun-ju's gaze was on the star. He opens his mouth with a calm expression.

“You don't have to overdo it. ”

Hyundai answered honestly. Although the dungeons were eroding extensively around them, they thought it would be a bigger loss if they lost Eun Joon, a Class S Hunter, and the promising owner.

“Let's go back. We can't go any further. ”

“I agree with your opinion. ”

“Phew, I'm alive! ”

Everyone agreed with Eunuch's opinion.

They quickly returned to the path they had rushed, but soon they were desperate.

“The road is blocked! ”

Where there are stairs to the ground, the doors are closed.

The stone door didn't seem easy to open at first glance. You were hardly harmed by Eunju's powerful error, whether it was imprinted with a special enchantment.

“I have no choice but to catch the boss. ”

Seong-jun said.

In this case, the door will open only after you've captured the boss and completed the dungeon raid. Eun Joo bit her lip at the fact that she had to proceed with the attack.

“Sir, are we isolated? ”

“Nothing's going to happen. Don't worry too much. ”

Eun Joo relieved the other hunters.

“I'll keep going. ”

The party has moved again. The deeper you go into the dungeon, the more resistant the witches become. I fought two more battles, but no one came out because of Seong-jun's actions.

A total of 3 people were injured, but Seong-jun's healing strength was good and he recovered quickly.

Thanks to his active participation in the battle, his coordination was 22%.

“I can't see the end. ”

At the break, Eun Joo sat next to Seong-jun and said in a helpless voice. This dungeon was her first time, so it was hard to keep her calm.

There were a lot of things that appeared and were highly rated.

“Still, I'm glad I have Seong-jun. ”

Thanks to Seong-jun's calm appearance, she was able to calm down as well as the other hunters of 'Dike’.

His heels were high, so there were fewer deaths. If there were many hunters who lost their lives, the party would be lost.

“Is that so?”

“Yes, I didn't expect you to be able to fight because you're a recovery system, but you're healthier and better than any A-rank mid-tier. I've never seen a Recovery Hunter fight this well. ”

At Eun-joo's words, Seong-jun put a light smile on his mouth. It felt good to be recognized.

“And it's not once that we've overcome the crisis because of Seong-jun's ability to detect it. Everyone on the Dicke team is grateful. ”

“I'll hear from you later. ”

Seong-jun picked up his sword as he got up.

“Looks like the witches are coming. ”

“There was nothing nearby.... ”

Eun Joo is appalled. She purposely takes a 30 minute step back and relaxes to rest safely. Since there were no magic objects around, the magic that appeared now could be seen as chasing the party.

“This is different than a regular dungeon. ”

Eun Joo muttered in a small voice.

The normal dungeon's magic was often within a designated area. By comparison, it could be seen that the current case is out of the designated area.

“Coming!”

Someone shouted.

In the darkness, a distinctive light emanates from a spiritual form of magic. As they got closer, Seong-jun stepped forward.

“Slash!”

With a large swing of the sword along with the starter language, the assault shot in a straight line with the error. The Flame Berserkers raise their shields, but the attack cut off the flaming shield and cut the flame Berserkers in half.

Three Flaming Berserkers are down in a single blow.

“Blessing!”

Her voice echoes in the dungeon. The Hunters' weapons contain an error. All the members of the ‘Dike’ team were users to come.

“Absorption.”

Seong-jun took a few steps back while absorbing his magical power and held on to his support position.

“Heel!"

The real battle started and Seong-jun was busy. He was busy casting the 'Hill’ whenever he got injured.

After the battle, the party advances again.

“Everyone is exhausted. We need to hit the boss as soon as possible. ”

By the third day of the dungeon raid, the party's fatigue had worsened. Thanks to ‘Magic Absorption,' Seong-jun was able to recover his health and magic, but the others were ending.

There was a limit to resting and recovering in the middle.

“A formal strike team is scheduled to enter the dungeon today, but the passageway is blocked…… I don't think it's going to be easy to expect backup. ”

Where Eun Joo and Seong-jun were sitting, Hyunsung approached. You speak in a small voice to avoid spreading desperate news around you, but other hunters are already aware of the situation.

“Everyone's tired. It's not good to turn it off long. ”

Hearing that the dungeon was large, I took enough water and food, but my physical strength was clear. Eun Joo expressed her concerns, and Seong-jun nodded and agreed.

I wanted to make this quick, but the hunters were too exhausted.

“I'll proceed.”

As Eun-suh's voice echoes that the short break is over, the hunters wake up in trouble. I was very tired, but there was no voice to complain and complain because everyone believed in Eunju.

“What is this...? ”

A combat hunter who was leading the party in the lead with Eunju stops his steps. He said with an unbelievable look.

In front of him are two passageways.

It was an intersection.

“Go, is there a fork in the road...? ”

“Weren't all dungeons one-way? ”

Hunters panicked, too. The regular dungeon was a one-way street.

“Lischevald.”

Seong-jun stepped back a bit away from the ranks and summoned his loyal soulmate. I thought Lischewald might be able to scout for the real route.

“Can you recon? ”

Seong-jun asked in a very small voice. Lischevald shakes his head.

- I'm sorry, Lord. There's a veil of magical power that I can't get away from.

Lischewald's ability to scout far as his tune rises, but with the interference of his magical power, he was unable to move away from Seongjun.

“It's okay.”

Seong-jun couldn't help but overlook Lischevald, who was bent on feeling helpless, then took a step toward Eun-ju.

She was discussing the status quo and the current situation.

“Eun-joo. ”

Seong-jun carefully called Eun-joo. Her gaze was on Seong-jun.

“I'll be on patrol. ”

“Seong-jun? ”

“Yes, I have a hidden item, so I can step back as soon as it becomes dangerous. ”

Seong-jun showed me the ring item on her left hand, the 'veil of black'.

“No, no, no. I can't send you alone. It's too dangerous."

Eun-su shakes her head and opposes.

“But when a party moves in together, it's hard to run away when you're in danger. I have a hidden item, so I can retreat if I encounter a lot of magic and can withstand isolation. ”

Despite Seong-jun's explanation, Eun-suh shakes her head. After being silent for a long time, she opens her mouth with a determined expression.

“I'm coming, too. ”

“Sir?"

Hunters were startled by the Declaration of Silver Coin.

“I have a hidden item, and we are the same party. Seong-jun can't be the only one at risk. I'm coming with you. ”

Eun Joo said decisively. Hunters were surprised, but did they know her personality well? There was no Hunter that raised an opposing voice.

“Are you sure you want to accompany us? ”

“The Dike team is my family. You can't just leave your family to others. And wouldn't it be better for the two of us to be together than alone? ”

“Very well. Let's go together. ”

“I'm not going to grab my ankle. ”

Eun Joo smiled at Seong-jun's permission. She was a Class S Hunter. So, Seong-jun thought that nothing would catch his ankle.

“Kang Sung-joon, are you okay? ”

While Eunju was in a hurry to prepare, Hyunsung approached Seong-jun and asked. He was really worried about Seong-jun.

“Are you worried about me? ”

“Of course. Don't overdo it. ”

“It's going to be okay. ”

Seong-jun finished a short conversation with Hyunsung and checked his baggage. Eun Joo joins us fearfully after the inspection.

“Everyone is resting here. I'll be right back. ”

Eun Joo instructed the hunters and entered the right passageway with Seong-jun. Two drones illuminate the darkness.

Maybe a half-hour walk?

The long corridor did not show an end. I was about to head back, but the two of them decided to do a little more reconnaissance.

“Let's go back. ”

Nothing was found and the end was nowhere to be seen. Seong-jun suggested that we finish scouting for 20,000, and Eun-joo nodded.

“Go back.”

As they returned home, they soon stopped their steps.

“Is there something? ”

“Something's guarding the way things are going. ”

When asked about Eun-suh, Seong-jun nodded. He shut down the lighting drones.

“Looks like they're guarding their way around. I'll be on patrol. ”

“Be careful.”

While receiving Eun Joo's worried gaze, Seong-jun nodded instead of answering. And I put magic in the "veil of darkness" in my left hand.

“Hidden.”

His body melts into the darkness. He moves calmly. The outline of the terrain was visible as the vision became accustomed to the darkness. Soon after, I found a group of light blocking the way back.

I was able to recognize them because of their spiritual luminescence.

‘Damn it.'

Seong-jun uttered a curse.

It was definitely hidden, but my eyes met.
