Chapter 37: Awarded Applicant Student 1

The first trap had knives sticking out of the walls and there were delayed electric saw blades coming out of the floor. They had to lower their heads and jump at the same time or roll forward to avoid it.

It would be too dangerous if some were to screw up so the slowed down the knives and and the saw were covered by a thick layer of cloth. The greatest damage that they could get were just a scratch but the applicants got nervous when they ramped up the speed of the traps. There was a chance that the saw would get them every time they would lower their heads.

That became their fatal mistake. The contents of the physical strength test were widely spread so that’s what they practiced for. They thought that it was something where they could just close their eyes and pass but the real thing was three times more than what they practiced.

“Argh!”

The instructor ran in and yelled as soon as they heard an awful scream.

“Stop the test! Stop the test! Healer! We need a healer!!!”

The electric saw carved into the participant’s chest and spilled his blood everywhere. They called in a healer and one immediately ran into the scene.

The healer then looked at the wound in the applicant and knitted his brows. The electric knife stab in his chest was almost standard.

“Recovery!”

The healer placed his hands over the wound and started to use his recovery skill. He closed off the wound but the clutter of blood left on the floor worried the instructors and made the step back. They knew that if the healing took too long, it would have been too late.

“Should we call 911?”

“Ah. Yes.”

They didn’t hesitate calling 911.

“Where’s the employee that bought the trap?!!”

One of the instructors yelled. The employee in charge of the count panel on the second floors made his escape, everything turned to be a disaster.

“What are we going to do!?”

“The equipment… It looks like there was an error.”

They used an excuse to defend themselves..

“Gosh… Let’s just go with that!”

The constructor had a confused look on his face, an applicant almost died they would most likely be complaints. At worst they would just get discharged buf if he really did die, even the instructors could be fired. Their status alone couldn’t save them unless they were a part of a clan.

“You’re fired! Go away!”

“…O-Okay….”

The employee suddenly lost his job. He screwed up and he tried to explain it to his supervisor but he still got the worst case scenario delivered to him.

“Keug! Keuouog!”

With the healer’s help, the wound was closed but he then the applicant started to cough up some blood.

“Wh…what’s going on!”

“He’s internally bleeding! Heal him from the inside!”

“Healing can’t be done inside the body!”

The healer panicked and answered the instructor.

“The wound was closed. The problem is that the electric blade’s cut was too deep. The healing skill worked but, it’s now coming out of his mouth”

“This is a disaster…”

The supervisor got frustrated and looked around for another solution. The blood rushed out like water from a hose, it was too much to bear until one of the applicants came into the scene.

“Step aside.”

“What is it!”

The healer shouted at the applicant that tried to push him aside.

“I am a healer, too.”

The participant tried to reach him out but the leader blocked him with his hand.

“Normal healing skills won’t work! After it’s healed then the wound will just later come back again! You would have to be a specialist for it to work…”

He was right. There would be no risk if a specialist were to do it since they had a lot of surgical knowledge on top of that. This healer obviously didn’t have that kind of knowledge.

“What is your name?”

Asked the supervisor.

“Jeon Jaehwang.”

The supervisor’s face had turned to stone at the moment he heard his voice. He saw in the documents that he was one of the only two hybrid license applicants that he had ever seen. He was also the applicant that got the highest grades in the activities for that day. It was a decision that involved a lot of risks but they didn’t have a choice.

“Alright. I’ll give you a chance.”

Jaehwang gave him a nod before he stretched his arm. Everyone was nervous when Jaehwang’s hand started to restore the wound on both sides.

“What’s going on?!”

It proved quite difficult to heal. The wound was then again torn open and the supervisor tried to get his hands onto him. However, the healer understood what he was doing and stopped the supervisor in his tracks.

“Stop, please!”

“He’s making it worse!!”

“If I’m correct then I know exactly how he would fix it.”

“What do you mean?”

“Watch closely.”

The supervisor covered his mouth and watched the process in confusion.

“Huh?”

The patient’s chest was ripped open but he stopped coughing blood and looked more at ease. It looked unusual but when Jaehwang hovered his hands over the wound, it started to heal slowly.

It wasn’t long before Jaehwang completely healed the wound like nothing happened.

“I didn’t know you had a high ranked resurrection skill?”

The healer shook his head as he started to see why he was ahead of all other applicants. He made a mistake and Jaehwang came to fix it. The healer thought that maybe he had some kind of medical knowledge but he only healed it with his senses.

It had to be an illusion.

-But there’s a lot of blood on the inside.

-There was nothing I could do.

The spirit inside of him helped.

“I’ve finished healing him but there’s still a lot of blood on the inside. He’ll have to get a medical procedure tomorrow.”

“Ah… Thank you.”

The instructor thanked him in a polite tone since the participant’s life was saved and the instructor didn’t have to lose his job. The authorities then came and brought him to the nearest hospital. It felt like a long hour had passed by but the ambulance came and left within just twenty minutes.

“Huh… The ambulance is gone?”

The head instructor went and asked to the instructor as if an accident never even happened.

“Ah, yes sir, everything’s been solved”

There were ten people who passed the hunter test but only five of those people would be selected. The hunter test was made to measure one’s ability, they had taken some precaution but their current instructor was an ordinary person and didn’t have much experience. All she had was the skills and the level of influence second to the supervisor.

“That’s a relief. Now let’s resume the test. The error could be fixed and everything should be fine…”

The head instructor said and the other instructor the answered back.

“Sir.”

“Huh? What more is there to say?”

He then answered his question.

“The healing was a success, I do believe that number eleven’s skills proved his qualification”

It was a little early but they all saw his outstanding abilities and he fixed the situation based on the instructor’s judgement. A Gagseog would need to take a test before they could decide on something like this but he healed a critically injured person while everyone was panicking. No one could deny that he had a good control in his skills. Jaehwang thought that the supervisor would have nothing against the instructor’s opinion but he was different than he thought.

“I think that all future treatments should be done with just placing a finger on the wound to be qualified. Wouldn’t that be a good idea?”

“Huh?”

He then answered back simply.

“You didn’t hear what I said?”

“Uh… I heard it, I’m sorry”

He didn’t understand what the supervisor meant so he just went along with it. He did not want to start an argument with the one who had a higher status than him so he made a wide choice by agreeing to him.

“Ooh… But, that guy’s mana reserves was great, wasn’t it?”

The fact that it was a high ranked skill meant that it consumes a lot of mana. The effects were outstanding and delicate, that’s why everyone thought of it as a big deal. Especially for a wound like that, healing it would eat of lot of the caster’s mana.

With that out of the way, Jaehwang sat down on a nearby bench to get his energy back and fill his [Mana Consumption] skill. Even though he had a greater reserve against everyone, his special skills still eats up a whole lot more compared to the common ones.

“I hope that the applicants would be taking the last test!”

He heard the supervisor yell from afar.

-Your recovery is at fifty percent.

Jaehwang looked at the status window without a word. The recovered Mana was never anything besides one hundred percent. Of course, it was still higher like his skills compared to the others but with what just happened, he realized that there were a lot of things that he should consider. Thus, it was not high enough to calm him down especially because Jaehwang was a hybrid hunter applicant and he had to participate in the magic test as well.

-You ungrateful jerk! Do you not care that I helped you?!

The spirit yelled after she sensed that he as disappointed.

-That’s enough… I don’t want to start over.

Jaehwang got up and even though it was a little early, he got some of his energy back after he spent his time on the bench. His mana would recover naturally but its rate would be faster if he was even more relaxed.

-Are you scared?

-Not really…

He was feeling disappointed. He just couldn’t talk at that moment, he didn’t wish for it to happen but if he didn’t spend his mana then the other applicant wouldn’t be able to survive.
