I Became the Only Healer in the Academy - Chapter 28.1
With a proud feeling, I headed home, and once again, a familiar window appeared.
[Recombination is possible with the Sage’s ability.]
It was the unique ability of the Sage, recombination.
“Obtaining purification and then recombination means combining the abilities I currently possess with purification, right?”
[List of Recombinable Abilities]
[Healing, Purification]
[Recombination Result: Healing]
[Healing: Heals the wounds of the target. Simultaneously purifies any harmful elements in the target.]
[The effects before recombination are inherently retained.]
[Would you like to start the recombination?]
Naturally, Seonghyun began the recombination inadvertently.
“Hmm… Has it become a bit more convenient to use?”
Even if the two abilities were not combined, in reality, it was essentially the same as using them separately, with just a slight increase in convenience due to recombination.
In the brief moment when a slight sense of disappointment crept in, Seonghyun could discern what had changed.
“Before, healing used to…”
Before the combination, healing was about treating the ‘minor’ wounds of the target.
However, checking the description of the now combined healing, the word ‘minor’ was nowhere to be found.
In other words, the range of wounds that could be healed with the ability had broadened, even if they were relatively deep wounds.
Seonghyun had not directly felt the inadequacy of his healing ability yet.
While treating Park Hanwook, he felt it a bit, but ultimately, the treatment was successful.
“But purifying all harmful elements…”
The most curious thing was the limit of the purification ability.
If the information provided by the window was accurate, could it purify everything harmful in the target, including the diseases that humanity currently suffers from?
“If that’s the case…”
The more Seonghyun thought about it, the larger the scale became.
If he could treat diseases that currently couldn’t be cured with purification, Seonghyun’s value would skyrocket to an incomparable level.
“I need to confirm.”
Where are the limits of purification, and if it can be applied to diseases, what are those limits?
“Vice Chairman, here are the requests and reports that came in today.”
“Sigh…”
The Vice Chairman rubbed his temples and let out a deep sigh as he received and checked the documents.
[USA, France, UK, Japan, China…]
Underneath these countries, there were lists of numerous other countries, each with quite a few names written below.
“…It seems impossible to refuse these.”
The secretary spoke with a somber tone, The Vice Chairman responded with a stiff expression.
“Alright, I understand for now.”
“What should I say…”
“Tell them to wait until tomorrow.”
“Yes, understood.”
Unlike the usual calm demeanor of the Vice Chairman, the secretary, noticing a slightly displeased expression, didn’t say anything more and quietly exited the room, bowing slightly.
“… Opportunistic individuals.”
The documents the secretary had brought today were nothing other than lists of people from various countries seeking treatment. Among them were some well-known figures, while others were not.
The famous individuals had scars on their bodies that shouldn’t be left, while the less-known ones were suffering from illnesses that couldn’t be cured with existing medical technology.
While grasping the detailed limitations of Seonghyun’s abilities, the intention was to use Seonghyun to gain favor from somewhat well-known individuals in the country.
“Now, can we really refuse…”
It wasn’t easy for South Korea to reject these requests.
In a previous meeting, when there was talk about the rise in international standing, the United States took the lead in expressing approval.
The association had not ignored Seonghyun until now.
The Academy had legally restricted access from the media.
As a result, all questions about Seonghyun came to the association, and requests for treatment from other countries were not a rare occurrence.
The goal of the association was to ensure that Seonghyun could lead a daily life without any disruption, just like usual.
“Now is the time to take action.”
The Vice Chairman pushed aside the requests and checked the remaining documents that the secretary had left.
[Kim Seonghyun, Hunter Attack Report]
[September 2nd, around 4 PM, at the request of Hunter Heo Taehyun, no involvement from other countries or organizations.]
A report about the attack on Seonghyun. The details had been understood earlier, but it took some time to confirm whether there was involvement from other countries or guilds.
Fortunately, there was no external involvement, and the incident was merely a small(?) matter related to the selection of the academy class representative.
“Vice Chairman, Hunter Kim Seonghyun is here.”
“Hunter Kim Seonghyun…? Please, bring him in.”
The Vice Chairman placed both documents related to Seonghyun in a drawer and welcomed him.
“Hello.”
“Nice to meet you today, Hunter Kim. What brings you here?”
“I have something to discuss.”
The Vice Chairman scrutinized Seonghyun’s expression carefully.
Unable to decipher the somewhat unreadable expression, he decided to proceed with the conversation for now.
“Would you like something to drink?”
“Oh, no, thank you.”
The reason Seonghyun had come to see the Vice Chairman was simple. Along with notifying about the newly opened purification ability, he had something to convey.
“What is it that you’d like to discuss? You could have done it over the phone.”
“…”
Instead of answering, Seonghyun took something out of his bag and handed it to the Vice Chairman.
“What is this?”
The red liquid in the transparent bottle exuded a color that suggested drinking it would lead to something beneficial.
“Hunter Kim…? Is this…?”
“You’re probably thinking right.”
The Vice Chairman picked up the bottle with twitching hands.
What could be so important that Seonghyun brought it himself?
The red liquid, radiating a hopeful color, was undoubtedly what people commonly referred to as a potion.
“How did you…”
Seonghyun had informed the association about the existence of the potion.
However, Seonghyun didn’t disclose how to make it.
‘Though the process of making it is actually simple…’
