Civil Servant Hunter’s S-class Resignation Log

Chapter 68

[‘The Greedy Predator’ laughs, saying that they were just worried about the contractor. They said that because they didn’t want to see her collapse again due to the death of someone close to her.]

“I don’t want to see you. You’ve been waiting for that moment.”

Once my mind falters, they’ll eat me up with great joy.

The contract that bound the two was not a cooperation but a leash. No one knew yet who would grab whose first.

“It’s different from then. With Sung Jarim on her way, at least Jaehun won’t die. Nobody will die.”

Yes. Unlike 12 years ago, there were two L-ranks now. Yoon Jaehun wouldn’t get killed as terribly as his mother.

“… I shouldn’t do anything reckless.”

There was no way to know what the situation was like because the target scene couldn’t be filmed as it would endanger the assistant support team.

May they come back safely without anyone dying.

May Seora never lose her family again.

Song Hanna put her hands together and prayed to the god who protected Jaehun, not her own god.

***

However, the situation was not so hopeful.

It’d been about two hours since the fight started.

They were still alive thanks to Yoo Soo-eun, but that was about it. Except for Kang Sejun, all they could do was give strength to the legs that were about to break.

Yoo Soo-eun had also taken on the role of a Tanker in place of Eun Injae and overused her barriers usage several times.

Her mana was running out as she healed the electrocuted Eun Injae and others appropriately.

And it wasn’t just that.

‘I can’t heal Yoon Jaehun!’

Yoo Soo-eun bit her lip tightly.

The condition for Yoon Jaehun’s title ‘Lonely Pilgrim’ was to fight alone. She couldn’t help him because being healed by a Healer was also considered fighting together.

Yoo Soo-eun grabbed her hair and looked at Yoon Jaehun’s back, who had become miserable in a short time.

Eight years of experience on the front line, natural combat sense, and the title of showing absolute power in the area declared as a holy place.

He could hold on thanks to mobilizing everything he had, but that was all.

His left arm was half clumsy, and his sword-holding right arm was on the verge of necrosis from the overuse of skills. The two legs were also not intact.

If he hadn’t given his all to hold onto one of the heads, everyone except Kang Sejun would have been rolling on the floor already.

“I can see how amazing my mother was.”

Supporting his staggering body with his sword sheath, Yoon Jaehun looked straight at the beast.

The head of fire he was dealing with was not in perfect condition. It was thanks to Joo Eun’s skill that it was cut in half, but that was not the only thing.

This guy still hadn’t been able to heal the wound Hyun Jaehee inflicted 12 years ago. He could tell because he was a son who grew up looking at his mother’s back.

‘Now I have one chance to attack with my physical condition.’

Only once.

But he must. He should be able to.

Yoon Jaehun jumped high. He dazzled the dark night sky with pure white sword energy. It was a beautiful sword that was barely made by grinding and polishing for eight years after awakening.

[Activates the skill “Forked Road”!]

As he swung his sword, the sword blade split into several branches. However, as soon as it collided with the fire spewed out by the beast, several of the split blades disappeared like an illusion.

Yoon Jaehun’s unique skill, Forked Road.

If there was an open place in a road, there was a way to be blocked. His attacks were the same. If there was a real attack, there was also a fake attack.

While the fantasy confused the beast, the real attack hit the beast’s vital point.

The tail that Hyun Jaehee had once cut off in the past, and the left front leg.

Yoon Jaehun’s sword tore through the two parts, which were much weaker than in the past even though they had newly sprouted.

Aaaaagh! The beast that had lost its tail and one of its legs let out a long scream. Lava-like blood was scattered in all directions.

When there was a gap, Kang Sejun poured his magic right away without delay. With a thud, the head, which had been pouring out bloody lightning, finally fell.

But there was no time to rejoice.

“Oh, we’re doomed.”

Tail, legs, and even a newly created head.

The red eyes of the guy who had lost three parts in an instant glared at Yoon Jaehun. Its hind legs, loaded with pain and rage, flew off.

“Damn it, you bastard.”

He had spent all his energy on the last attack. He had no power left to avoid.

Bang!

With a chilling sound, his body flew through the air like a sheet of paper.

“Yoon Jaehun!”

Yoo Soo-eun screamed and grabbed him, but the situation was the worst.

[The time limit is over. The title effect ends.]

“Of all things…! No! He’s in shock!”

The reaction against the title started, convulsing the entire body.

While everyone who knocked down the lightning head pushed the beast, Yoo Soo-eun poured all her remaining mana into Yoon Jaehun. However, the recoil caused by titles or skills was difficult to treat even with the power of a Healer.

“Hey, get a hold of yourself! Are you going to die coolly because of revenge?! Your revenge is over, so you should be able to live comfortably now! Wake up, you idiot!”

What should I do? How can I save him? How do I fix the title recoil?

I don’t know. I don’t know anything like this!

“Damn it, at least a healer stronger than me should come…!”

If only there was a higher grade, L-class Healer!

“Argh!”

Yoo Soo-eun raised her head at Han Suwon’s scream. He was down because he had exhausted himself from over-using his skills.

Do Junyoung was also barely moving. Joo Eun and Kang Sejun were still doing well, but Yoo Soo-eun could tell.

Even the two of them couldn’t win. Everyone was so exhausted.

Healer Yoo Soo-eun was given two options.

Give up on Yoon Jaehun and restore their physical strength with the remaining mana to keep them fighting.

Or keep holding on to Yoon Jaehun, whose situation seemed hopeless.

“Sigh. This is why I hate being a Healer.”

Healers were the core of raids, but sometimes they were forced to make heartless choices.

Yoo Soo-eun really hated that.

She became a Healer because she hated dying so much, but she had to discuss someone else’s death instead.

She couldn’t be that unkind.

“Fuck, don’t be ridiculous. No one has ever died in a raid I participated in as a Healer.”

The same was true this time. The moment when Yoo Soo-eun, who grieved at this, was about to use a last resort.

“Hiyaa, you scolded me whenever we met. I didn’t expect I’d witness a scene like this from you.”

A playful voice that didn’t suit such a terrible situation. At the same time, Yoo Soo-eun opened her eyes wide at the familiar tone.

The hair, redder than Eun Injae’s, resembling blood, was swaying.

“… Sung Jarim?”

“Good job. I am proud of you.”

Sung Jarim’s large hand tousled her hair. She had always called her puppy, but at this moment, she couldn’t help but cry.

“H-H-Hey! Why are you so late?!”

“Ah, ah! Why does she get angry as soon as she sees me? Aren’t you too much? I’m here to help!”

“Then help quickly! He’s about to die!”

“I know. It looks very difficult. Why did he get hurt so badly? He’s going to die without leaving her any shape.”

“What?”

Yoo Soo-eun, sniffling her nose for no reason, noticed that Sung Jarim was looking somewhere.

“H-Huh? That kid-”

…was the civil servant affiliated with the association. An F-class who went through hardships because of Han Suwon. The kid was right in front of her.

When the hell? She hadn’t felt anything. Was it because she was too weak? Had she not noticed at all because she had no power?

“How’s my brother?”

Her brother? Who?

“He’s in shock. The wounds are serious, but I think it’s more because of the recoil of the skill or title. This cannot be cured with healing. First of all, I need to recover his exhausted stamina,” Jarim, who was looking at Jaehun, got up and stood next to Seora. Suddenly she was holding a huge scythe. “I will attack first. Level 1 monsters differ from Level 3 monsters, so I can steal their health without killing them.”

“Yes. Please.”

Jarim jumped high, grabbed her scythe, and swung it hard. As the neck, legs, and tail were severed, the beast couldn’t escape the attack.

[Activates the skill ‘Slayer’s Spear’!]

[Extorts the health of killed enemies. Recovers allies’ HP by 20%!]

“It’s almost dying.”

A Level 1 monster should’ve been able to recover 40% without dying, but this time only 20%% was possible.

However, even if it was that much, it was like a sweet rain to Yoon Jaehun and everyone else. Thanks to the recovery of some physical strength, the recoil was offset a little.

“Ah!”

Yoo Soo-eun immediately converted all but a portion of her remaining physical strength into mana. Thanks to that, she was able to restart Yoon Jaehun’s treatment.

“Guild Leader Yoo Soo-eun.”

At the sound of a low voice, she raised her head in surprise. Yoon Seora, the weak civil servant, was looking at her without a smile.

“Please take care of him.”

But why? Why did she not feel weak at all now?

“That person is my brother.”

“H-Huh? What?! Brother?! Who?! Whose?!”

“Please take care of him so he won’t die. I’ll beat that damn bastard.”

Yoo Soo-eun couldn’t even ask what the hell did she mean by calling Yoon Jaehun her brother. Seeing Yoon Seora walking toward the beast, she just screamed, “Hey! Wait a moment! What’s a weak baby like you doing?!”

However, Yoon Seora did not listen to her words. She wasn’t in the mood to ask questions. It’d been a long time since she’d been so angry.

After hearing Kang Sejun’s words that he couldn’t step out even for a second, she ran straight to this place without delay.

The moment she entered this land hoping that no one had died, she saw her brother blown away by the filthy feet of that damn bastard.

Her eyes turned red. Anger soared as if it had ripped through her heart. She felt liberated as if the heavy thing that had held her for a long time had exploded.

Aah. It was resentment that had been building since the moment her parents died 12 years ago.
