23. Injured (1)

“Hyung!”

Ye-Hyeon couldn’t even hear the urgent voice calling him.

However, his hearing was only better than other party members. Scream Raven’s attack ruins Ye-Hyeon’s sense of balance.

He didn’t speed up a bit.

“Ugh, Ugh, Hyuk…”

Even if Ye-Hyeon ran with all his might, he couldn’t get out of the growing shadow of the black man.

The eerie shadow covered Ye-Hyeon’s feet, grabbed his stiff thigh and spine, and wanted to swallow Ye-Hyeon’s head.

The moment the shadow entirely swallowed the body, his vision became dark.

‘My legs are weak.’ Ye-Hyeon thought.

The fallen Ye-Hyeon rolled down the slope below the mountain.

“No!’

When Ye-Hyeon’s weak body caught in a crack in the rock and barely stopped, Ye-Hyeon felt heat in the sky.

Ye-Hyeon barely opened one eye.

The first thing that came into the dim view was the vertically torn pupils.

His red eyes stared at Ye-Hyeon without moving.

The monster’s back is covered with dark red fire.

The black wings were burned by intense flames, showing only white bones instead of feathers.

The Scream Raven’s bizarre form, with his long beak wide open, was like a demon from hell.

“Oh, my…”

Ye-Hyeon raised his nails and scratched the floor, but his body remained motionless.

Scream Raven hit Ye-Hyeon’s stomach with the inertia that flew even though he lost his wings.

As it approached Ye-Hyeon, the fire-burning Scream Raven killed it.

For a moment, Ye-Hyeon couldn’t think of any idea.

It was like a dream, not a reality.

It was the intense pain felt on the side that awakened the spirit of Ye-Hyeon.

The monster’s colossal body lay down on Ye-Hyeon.

Hot blood raked through the throat and burst out.

Then there was a burning sensation.

Even if the fire had been extinguished, the heat that had been burning until now could not have disappeared.

Ye-Hyeon’s whole body was burning.

Ye-Hyeon couldn’t even scream properly because of the pain.

“Ah, ah…” Ye-Hyeon couldn’t breathe well because of the pressure on his lungs.

It seemed as if Ye-Hyeon had fainted for a moment.

“Ye-Hyeon! Ye-Hyeon, can you hear me? Ye-Hyeon! Don’t lose your mind!”

Baek Hae-Won, who ran in a hurry, sprayed a potion around the beak of Scream Raven, which penetrated the side.

“Give me all the potions!”

“……Damn.”

At Baek Hae-Won’s urgent cry, Shin Do-Gyeom cursed low and handed over the potion he was wearing around his waist.

Kwon Joo-Ho loosened his belt completely.

“Don’t die, Hyung. Don’t die.”

“Why are you saying something stupid?”

“Is it time to fight?”

Yoon Seung-Jae cried while putting a potion in Ye-Hyeon’s mouth. Shin Do-Gyeom, who saw it, was angry, and Baek Hae-Won scolded him.

<Life force> 11/150

Thanks to the potions, Ye-Heon’s life force did not decrease further.

“But he is not in good condition. I have to pull out the beak,” Baek Hae-Won mumbled nervously.

It was clear that Ye-Hyeon’s body would not be able to withstand the shock or excessive bleeding if he pulled it out as it was.

“Ye-Hyeon, can you cure it now?”

“*Cough*, hand, argh, *cough*…”

To heal the wound, Ye-Hyeon had to put his palm on the wound.

Ye-Hyeon needs help. After all, he can’t lift a finger and can’t speak well because his tongue is stiff.

“Hands, hands. You have to touch the wound.”

Yoon Seung-Jae, who understood well, carefully grabbed Ye-Hyeon’s wrist.

“Oh, my!”

However, due to the injury to the whole body, the remaining vitality was almost halved just by moving the arm a little.

Yoon Seung-Jae hurriedly spilled the potion around his mouth, but it was hard to swallow because the blood continued to flow back.

“Healing light”

“Healing light”

Ye-Hyeon used his skills as he could.

New flesh began to fill the wounds.

At the same time as Ye-Hyeon’s cry, Kwon Joo-Ho caught the monster and slowly began to pull it out.

The barely filled new flesh was torn off and the fresh flesh was filled up again.

It was a dizzying pain.

However, as soon as he lost his mind, Ye-Hyeon would surely die.

The only thing that could fix Ye-Hyeon’s wounds was himself, a healer.

‘I don’t want to die, uh……’ Ye-Hyeon thought.

Ye-Hyeon clenched his teeth with indomitable will.

‘Oh, don’t… Stop!’ Ye-Hyeon thought.

Physiological tears trickled down the corners of his eyes.

Kwon Joo-Ho, holding up Scream Raven’s neck, Kwon Joo-Ho stumbled a little, causing pain like a tidal wave.

Shin Do-Gyeom, watching Ye-Hyeon’s condition, supported Scream Raven’s body on the other side of Kwon Joo-Ho.

It was a warning sound Ye-Hyeon hadn’t heard in a long time.

The vitality seemed to have fallen below five.

‘I didn’t want to hear it again,’ Ye-Hyeon thought.

Mana fell out because the wound was so big.

Baek Hae-Won, who realized that the amount of light flowing out of his palm had decreased significantly, urgently took a mana potion to Ye-Hyeon’s lips.

However, his lips, which were tightly closed to endure the pain, did not open.

“Open your mouth. Please, please… ”

Baek Hae-Won grabbed Ye-Hyeon’s chin and forcibly opened it.

The neat fingertips were trembling.

[system] ‘Target 2: Baek Hae-Won’ was found.

‘The ignorant Status Window bastard!’ Ye-Hyeon thought.

Ye-Hyeon stared at the obtrusively clear gray window in his completely smashed vision.

The long fingers, which had invaded between Ye-Hyeon’s lips, pressed the stiff tongue and forced him to swallow the potion.

After a long time, the pain from his body was removed.

“…Hyung!”

At the end of the pain that seemed to last forever, Ye-Hyeon came to his senses like a marionette with broken threads.

The darkness pulled Ye-Hyeon to the deep floor. When the crescent moon hung on the top of the sky, Ye-Hyeon opened his eyes again.

A sparkling galaxy was seen through the huge cracks of rocks on both sides.

From the foot of his feet, Ye-Hyeon heard a bonfire burning.

‘I almost died.’

This time, Ye-Hyeon felt pure relief rather than fear or unpleasant feelings.

Ye-Hyeon looked at the night sky blankly and recalled the situation just before he fainted.

Seeing that the moment when he was covered in shadows while running away rather than the shock of Scream Raven’s huge beak, it seemed that there was still the aftermath of his mental weakness caused by the super boss.

‘..uh… It’s not full-body paralysis, is it? I don’t think I hurt my spine. No way. Is it just numb?’ Ye-Hyeon thought.

The worst situation unfolded in his head.

Ye-Hyeon clenched his fists and opened them to check the Status Window.

The condition was “normal” to see if he had abnormal conditions.

‘I can cure it with healing light, right?’ Ye-Hyeon thought.

Ye-Hyeon nervously bit his lower lip.

“My Mana ran out, so I couldn’t use the skill immediately. I couldn’t believe it. I returned just before I died and was just taking my first steps as a hunter, and everything was messed up like this. It was dizzying.”

Ye-Hyeon was muttering in embarrassment, but a cough came out instead of the sound of words.

Every time Ye-Hyeon took a rough breath, he could feel the smell of fishy blood.

It was very ominous to see Yoon Seung-Jae’s voice cracking so much.

‘I’m not feeling well…’ Ye-Hyeon thought.

“I, my body, so…”
