Regression Of The Dating Sim Player - CH 22
11. Hunter Screening
Ye-Hyeon wanted to lie down without doing anything, but he forced himself to rise.
Since Ye-Hyeon had to be judged by Hunter, he thought he should test what kind of skill “healing light” is.
Ye-Hyeon brought a kitchen knife and scratch his forearm without hesitation.
The blade was sharper than expected, so the wound was quite deep.
Red blood dripped down, but Ye-Hyeon didn’t even moan.
Ye-Hyeon spread his right hand and put it around the wound.
He has never met a healer, but he has heard about how they used their skills through rumors.
“Healing light.” When Ye-Hyeon muttered the skill name, white light came out of his palm.
When the warm light touched the wound, the blood stopped and the new flesh began to rise.
It took only a dozen seconds to heal perfectly, perhaps because the wound was clean.
It instead consumed too much mana.
It wasn’t a big wound, but it touched almost 30% of his mana.
Ye-Hyeon frowned.
It is said that parties with healers treat all the small wounds and carry only one or two emergency recovery potions, but if you use only three skills, Mana will run out.
It was impossible to inhale Mana Potion, which is twice as expensive as recovery Potion, like water.
“I think it would be better to bring a lot of recovery pot in the inventory… It was ridiculous to imagine a healer giving away recovery potions. That was not the only problem. While attacking the dungeon, injuries to the level of amputation of the arm or rupture of the internal organs were often seen. It was very difficult if you needed more Mana depending on the degree of injury. Is my mana small or my skill bad?–
“I should’ve just picked the attack skill. I was full of lingering feelings, but I became more disturbed.” Ye-Hyeon spoke to himself.
Ye-Hyeon contacted the training center’s management office with a calm mind.
When Ye-Hyeon roughly said that he had been injured and developed at the accommodation, the answer came back that he would be contacted again soon.
After large manifestations, Hunter screening was usually available within 24 hours.
However, Ye-Hyeon’s screening schedule was not scheduled until more than half a day after two days.
It was strange considering that the Hunter Association was quick to do one thing.
The screening site was a hospital specializing in Hunter.
Ye-Hyeon, who arrived at the VIP room assigned to the screening room, soon found out why it took so long to prepare for the screening.
From ordinary stab wounds to burns, fractures, and simple indigestion, all kinds of patients came to meet Ye-Hyeon in turn.
It seemed to have collected actual patients one by one to confirm their therapeutic ability.
It was cumbersome, but it would be best to grasp the ability from the perspective of ordinary people who do not see the Status Window.
‘No, this might be more accurate.’ Ye-Hyeon thought.
Thanks to Status Window’s explanation, Ye-Hyeon was also able to get information that the healing light was not effective for sudden stagnation or headaches.
If it was not directly injured, it did not seem to be recognized as a wound.
“It doesn’t remove any abnormal conditions, but it does work on physical wounds…” The examiners exchanged conversations in a low voice.
Seeing that he recorded the evaluation with a serious expression, it didn’t seem like a good result.
“Can other healers release abnormalities?” [Examiner 1]
“Oh, yes. Usually, we treat injuries and release them at the same time.” [Examiner 2]
“Then it’s half-skill.” [Examiner 1]
Ye-Hyeon bit the tender flesh in his mouth.
Ye-Hyeon doesn’t know the importance now, but as time goes by, there are more monsters who risk more than their status.
The fact that other healers basically have no ability to remove more than they have will be a fatal disadvantage for Ye-Hyeon to pose as a healer.
Ye-Hyeon drank the mana potion, hiding his frustration.
There were already five empty bottles.
The judges seemed a little surprised that they expect that Ye-Hyeon would use so much Mana Potion.
‘A porter healer.’ An ominous word passed through Ye-Hyeon’s head for a moment.
Ye-Hyeon shook his head to shake off his ominous thoughts.
“This is the last time. I’ll check if it’s only possible for only humans to be treated.” [Examiner 1]
When the examiner signaled, the employee brought a large cage.
Ye-Hyeon thought there would be a large dog, but a dog as big as two hands was lying on its stomach.
The examiner carefully put the puppy down on the wide table.
The puppy giggled and stood up on its front paws.
At that moment, Ye-Hyeon, who noticed the dog limping, stopped and looked at the examiner.
“Don’t get me wrong. I didn’t hurt the puppy on purpose. I found the injured puppy and brought him.” The examiner, who knew what Ye-Hyeon was thinking, hurriedly waved his hand.
However, Ye-Hyeon did not immediately dispel doubts.
“You’ll be in big trouble if you do that. The president of the association hates that way.” The examiner hurriedly added an explanation.
Ye-Hyeon finally nodded.
If the president of the Association is so, the chairman of the Hunter Association was Lee Sun-Woo, the “first awakening” and “hero.”
Among the hunters, Lee Sun-Woo was an icon of trust.
The Association collapsed because Lee Sun-Woo retired due to injury.
Ye-Hyeon carefully lifted the dog’s front foot with his left hand.
Fortunately, the ‘healing light ‘worked for dogs, too.
Ye-Hyeon gently rubbed the clean foot with his thumb to check.
The dog held out its tongue and licked the back of Ye-Hyeon’s hand, as if it knew that he had treated him.
A smile also came to Ye-Hyeon’s mouth.
“Thank you for your hard work. We’ll discuss it for a while and come back. Please wait a moment.” [Examiner 1]
Left alone, Ye-Hyeon sat on a soft sofa and sipped a drink.
It was expected to take 1 to 20 minutes as the ratings were decided after sufficient discussion by the judges.
“The treatment is definitely different from F grade! Those who did not find their ability after half a year were examined together on the last day of each month. The horse was a judge, and it seemed to have become a livestock being dragged to the slaughterhouse.” [Examiner 2]
“What grade will he get?” [Examiner 1]
“The highest grade a new hunter could get was Class D. It was a grade that expected hunters who would become top hunters in Class A and at least Class B.” [Examiner 2]
Of course, there were some hunters who could not escape the D-class for life.
As far as Ye-Hyeon knows, all healers working as hunters in the active field were A-class.
There were rumors that healers would be raised to A-class hunters regardless of their abilities, so there was no way to know the level of other healers.
Maybe healers are rare because the healing skills themselves are all S-class.
‘I don’t want to be in grade D, so I want to be in grade E. No, it’s all right if it’s not just an F grade! Nearly half of the nearly 100,000 hunters were F-class, but the perception was not good.Fail, fail, fail.ineligibility’ Ye-Hyeon thought.
The negative meaning of the alphabet “F” was added to F-class hunters.
How serious was the “Grade F Hunter Human Rights Movement” to the extent that it occurred steadily.
F-level Hunter human rights activists tried to use other alphabets such as ‘G’ and ‘Z’ instead of ‘F’, but failed to gain popularity.
Later, they tried to change the perception that ‘F in Class F is F in Free’ and that it is a grade with potential.
Of course, none of them led to significant changes.
“I have a lot of thoughts now that I’m free.” Ye-Hyeon frowned and stretched his hair.
Perhaps because Ye-Hyeon was nervous, miscellaneous thoughts kept pushing his head.
As Ye-Hyeon waited a little longer, the examiner returned with a polite knock.
The examiner smiled and held out a straight piece of paper to Ye-Hyeon.
“Congratulations, Choi Ye-Hyeon Hunter.” [Examiner]
There was a bright red stamp on the bottom of the document.
“Grade D” is the highest rating a new hunter can receive.
“It’s a shame that we can’t remove abnormalities, but we decided that it’s not a big disadvantage because monsters that hang abnormalities are not common. It was healing enough to cover that point.” [Examiner]
Ye-Hyeon simply hoped that it would not be grade F, but he was confident that he would not be grade F because he is a healer.
Even though Ye-Hyeon knew it, when he faced a letter other than F, he felt a burning sensation in his eyes.
“Thank you, sir.” Ye-Hyeon said.
It seemed like a big lump was stuck in his throat.
It was sorrowful.
Ye-Hyeon forced his dry saliva and clenched his right hand.
In the title column of the Status Window, “Hunter Desired Student (F)” disappeared and “D-class Hunter (D)” was clearly engraved.
He has finally escaped from the F-level hunter.
Ye-Hyeon rolled his lips and bit them.
Ye-Hyeon thought it would be refreshing, but it felt weird.
Ye-Hyeon returned to the accommodation half-asleep.
It didn’t feel real.
Ye-Hyeon was restless because he kept thinking about the thoughts he had suffered before returning to Korea.
Ye-Hyeon and his sister always exchanged phone calls at least once.
She seemed to be still worried even if Ye-Hyeon said every time that the training center was not dangerous.
“That’s a relief.……” His sister said.
Ye-Hyeon’s sister was delighted to hear that he is a healer.
“Healer makes a lot of money. Don’t worry now. You don’t fight monsters directly, do you? But be careful. You have to be careful.”
For Ye-Hyeon’s sister, his safety came first before money.
Ye-Hyeon’s sister’s worried nagging continued for a while.
Ye-Hyeon, who barely hung up, also sent a message to Yoon Seung-Jae.
Yoon Seung-Jae also said he received a D-level, so he will see Ye-Hyeon again at the camp.
‘It’s going so smoothly! It wasn’t perfect, but overall, things went so well that I was worried.’ He thought.
Ye-Hyeon laid his exhausted body on the bed.
‘I was tired because I kept using my skills. I should tell Shin Do-Gyeom, right? I hope we don’t lose our intimacy.’ Ye-Hyeon thought.
Even though Ye-Hyeon was tired, he couldn’t fall asleep.
*Thump, thump.*
There was a loud heartbeat in Ye-Hyeon’s ears.
