"Aaaaack! Stop it! Don’t do it!”
A man's screams rang through the doctor’s clinic. Numerous needles were stuck in his waist. He looked like a fluorescent hedgehog.
“I’m almost done. Please bear with it.”
“Damn, are you a quack? Why can't my body move? Are you really a cleric? It is the first time I’ve heard of this treatment in my entire life! What are these big worms?”
Kim Sujeong was enraged by the word ‘quack.’ “I’m a cleric. Please be quiet. If you keep doing this, I’ll make your voice disappear. Additionally, they’re fireflies, not worms. Don’t talk because they’re the ones who will help you heal.”
“T-That...”
The man’s face turned as white as a sheet of paper at her words that were calmer than expected. Kim Sujeong used the skill she had learned from Camille, Eyes of a Firefly.
[The constellation skill: Eyes of a Firefly has been triggered.]
[Your night vision has brightened and eyesight has increased by 1.5 times.]
[All living objects will appear fluorescent.]
[There is a slight clairvoyance effect.]
After using the skill, the body of the man lying down looked like the light of a firefly. She looked around and all living things were surrounded by a fluorescent color. It was as if she was wearing infrared glasses.
“Let’s get started.”
The man in front of her had a chronic back problem. Trauma could be treated quickly with the divine power of a cleric but treating internal injuries was a bit more difficult. The Divine Firefly Acupuncture method she was going to do now was to insert needles and inject the divine power of fireflies into them. Camille told her that this would allow for more fundamental treatment.
[The firefly star, ‘Camille,’ says she will help.]
“Thank you. I’m asking you.”
Camille would assist Sujeong who was still inexperienced in controlling fireflies. Once she inserted the needles, the fireflies controlled by Camille would directly inject divine power.
“Let’s see, there is a problem with the fifth lumbar spine vertebrae.”
There were places that appeared red with the Eyes of a Firefly. It was an indication of physical pain and the man’s chronic back pain would be cured when the redness was gone. Kim Sujeong started the Divine Firefly Acupuncture she learned from Camille.
[Divine Firefly Acupuncture has stabbed an area of back pain!]
[The target’s back pain is gradually relieved.]
[Divine power is being infused.]
[Beginning the complete treatment of lower back pain.]
The moment the firefly’s divine power entered the needle, the man frowned.
“Bear with the pain. It will get better soon.”
“I-I can trust you, right?”
“Don’t you feel that your back pain is going away slightly?”
“Eh? Come to think of it...”
Kim Sujeong laughed as his words trailed off.
“Just endure a bit of pain. It looks like this but the effect is instant.”
“Ohuhu, thank you. Then I’ll give you something very precious. You will feel great when you eat it. It is really delicious. I grew it myself. Would you like to try it?”
“I’ll try it later. Let me do the treatment first.”
He sniffled. Kim Sujeong thought to herself, ‘Is it a cold?’ She decided to focus on the back pain treatment first. Kim Sujeong gulped and moved the needle to the next area. However, Camille told her.
[The firefly star, ‘Camille,’ says that it isn’t there!]
“Uh... It isn’t here? Haha. I’m sorry.”
She was still learning and wasn’t familiar with everything. Sometimes when she went to the wrong place, Camille was able to tell her in a stinging message. The firefly pointed to one place with a large antennae. Kim Sujeong laughed in an embarrassed manner. “Haha. It was here... thank you.”
[The firefly star, ‘Camille,’ says to get your head on straight.]
“T-This is the first time!”
[The firefly star, ‘Camille,’ says a moment’s mistake could kill people.]
“I know. I’m sorry, I’ll try harder.”
[The firefly star, ‘Camille,’ says to do the treatment quickly.]
“Y-Yes.”
Kim Sujeong sighed.
‘It feels like I’ve become a resident again.’
She had many things since developing a phobia of blood. If she couldn’t cure it then she would have to give up her profession forever. She could move to a department where she just interpreted the images but she didn’t want to give up her job. It was good to meet patients, treat them and laugh together. Then she met Camille.
‘This is the last method I can try.’
Acupuncture could treat a person without seeing blood. She had asked her psychiatrist who told her that her blood phobia might be cured if she did a lot of positive treatment activities. She highly recommended it and Kim Sujeong studied all night.
[Divine Firefly Acupuncture has stabbed an area of back pain!]
[The lower back pain is further relieved.]
[Divine power is treating the back pain.]
After a short period of time, Kim Sujeong sighed briefly. Fortunately, the treatment was done well and there was no redness that she could see using Eyes of a Firefly. All of this happened in less than three minutes.
The man moved his back and rejoiced. “Hihihi! The pain in my back has completely disappeared! I really thank you! Uhaha!Uhahaha!”
It was so good that the man got up and started dancing.
Kim Sujeong laughed at the overreaction.
‘He thought I would kill him but now he is dancing. He is a strange person. Is he perhaps drunk?’
It was common for patients to bow their heads with gratitude after receiving treatment.
Yet this man in front of her was slightly different from others.
‘Well, he must be a bit unusual. In any case, I wish I had more patients...’
It was naturally good that the people here were healthy but more patients were needed to advance her skills. Just then, she heard a knock.
Knock knock!
“Yes, come in.”
The door opened and a familiar man came in. It was an old man with white hair. “I’ve brought in a clinical experiment.”
* * *
Joseph and I surrounded the fallen Kis and brought him to Sujeong’s location. She was treating people in an empty building. Since it was an undeveloped village, there were many such empty buildings. I put Kis on the ground and knocked on the door.
Knock knock!
“Yes, come in.”
I opened the door and went in. There was one more person inside. It seemed she was treating someone. I cut to the chase. “I’ve brought in a clinical experiment.”
“A clinical experiment? What...”
“I’ve brought a patient.”
“Ah~ Where?” She stepped outside and was amazed. There was a bleeding man on the ground. “W-What happened to this person? He has a head injury. It looks like he was stabbed by something sharp...”
“Cough! Who knows? In any case, please treat him.”
Kim Sujeong looked at the wound and nodded. “Fortunately, it is just a skin injury so it isn’t a big deal. However, it is a head injury... I will treat it.”
All the fireflies hovering around her emitted light toward the wound and it soon disappeared. After all, Camille’s healing ability was considered to be one of the best among the constellations.
“Umm...” Kis’ eyelids twitched as he raised his upper body. “Where is this?”
I told him, “This guy, where do you think you are? You’re here to be healed.”
“Uh... Who are you?”
“What?”
For a moment, I wondered if this guy had eaten something wrong. Nevertheless, his eyes were sincere.
“Who are you? Here... Where is this? Who am I?”
I had a gut feeling. Perhaps this guy...
Kim Sujeong frowned from next to me. “It feels like he lost his memory.”
“...Should I say this is a blessing?”
“Huh? What do you mean?”
“This person is a complete libertine.”
At the same time, Kis grasped Kim Sujeong’s hand. His deep eyes shone like stars.
“Oh, I don’t know who you are but thank you for treating me. I want to swim in your eyes that are like the sea. Like this. Hahaha.”
Crazy bastard. Acting like this every moment...
I wanted her as the wife for my second son so I couldn’t help being angry when he acted like this. Kis received a forehead flick and groaned. “Ugh. Who are you and why are you hitting me? Huh? Do you know me?”
“I know.”
I pulled out the fork spoon and hit him again. This time, I did it more carefully so that he didn’t get hurt. Kim Sujeong said, “D-Don’t do that. He hurt his head.”
“He is a cheap guy.”
“No, he is my patient.”
At her words, Kis sniffled and pretended to be pitiful. He was really disgusting. I couldn’t take it anymore. SIgh. It would be nice if I could let out my anger but there was no place to do so. For a moment, I wanted a monster to pop up. Then a voice was heard from behind me. It was the man who was just treated.
“Kuhuhu. Young lady, thank you very much. Come play at the farm later. I’ll give you a lot of work.”
“Yes, go carefully.”
Kim Sujeong said farewell and the man tried to leave. By the way, it seemed like I had seen him somewhere. Something flashed in my mind.
"Excuse me.”
Once he turned, I could confirm his name.
[Diligent Farmer, Henry]
We met sooner than I expected. I inserted strength into the fork spoon. I made eye contact with Joseph next to me. He nodded and acted well. “Yes, It is nice to meet you. I want to take a photo to remember this.”
“Huhu, a photo? Okay. Take a good shot.”
“Now one, two, three. Kimchi~!”
“Kuhuhu. Kimchi~”
A blinding light burst out and Henry complained of pain. This was because Joseph used the flash with a blindness effect.
“Kuaaack! M-My eyes!”
I quickly approached him and hit him with the spoon. The effect of Chef’s Wrath enveloped my body.
“S-Spare me! Aaack!”
“Shut up!”
Bang!Bang bang!Bang!
He exclaimed, “Urghh. What’s wrong with you? Aren’t you the village chief?”
“Then what should I do?”
“Kuock! I’m going to tell all the villagers that you assaulted me!”
“Sure. Oh my, I accidentally stabbed you?”
Thus, I stabbed him in the butt... no, I hit him. After a while, he was kneeling with bruises on his face. Kim Sujeong asked with a surprised expression, “Is he a drug dealer?"
“Yes, he is raising mandragoras on his farm. The leaves have the effect of a sleeping pill and the fruit can be made into drugs. This guy doesn’t dig up the roots, but he has been picking the fruit and selling it secretly.”
Kim Sujeong muttered, “I thought he was a strange guy...”
She hadn’t believed it at first but quickly accepted it after seeing Joseph’s photo.
I ordered Henry, “You will leave the village.”
"Kuuack.”
“I will spare your life so get out of here.”
He nodded and moved out of the village. His voice could be heard in the distance. “I will definitely get revenge!”
...I wanted that.
The words rose in my throat but I held back. Then a message window popped up.
[The villager, Diligent Farmer, Henry, was kicked out.]
[The conditions of the quest have been met in a different method.]
[Your knowledge has increased by +1.]
[The farm he managed has been transferred to you.]
[The quest ‘Village Chief Covered in Mystery’ has been completed!]
[You have been fully recognized by 119 villagers as the village chief.]
[If you name the village in the future then you can acquire additional goodwill.]
Additional goodwill... Well, it wasn’t important.
Kim Sujeong asked, “Mandragoras? What are you going to do with it? I think it would be better to get rid of the drugs for the sake of the village.”
“Who knows? I have to go to the field and take a look first before thinking about it.”
Just then, a sound was heard. In the distance, Kis was trying to flee. I used Shadow Play to quietly place a hand on his shoulder.
Tak.
“Aaack! G-Ghost!”
“Hey.”
“Y-Y-Yes?”
“You haven’t lost your memory.”
“W-What... you mean...?”
Kis’ pupils shook like there was an earthquake. His brain was spinning like a machine. My lips curved up. “It is time for you to be tortured.”
It was also known as the tickling torture. I didn’t know if he had heard of it.
