The Ex-Hero Is Too Good at Exorcism

I distanced myself from Blood Rang to avoid the pouring blood.

Indeed, did they say it was the authority to cut down beasts?

Blood Rang’s red leather was almost as strong as metal.

Monica’s spear pierced it like cheese.

How deep did you dig in there?

Monica’s hand, which was holding the spear, was about to touch Hulrang’s head.

As if that wasn’t enough, Monica grabbed the tip of the spear and stirred it in Hulrang’s head.

OK,

thud!

He couldn’t stand it any longer and collapsed on the spot.

His whole body convulsed, and bloody foam came out of his mouth.

Came down to the ground together, Monica pulled out a spear from her head, and this time it pierced Hilrang’s chest.

Then, the blood ring whose heart was destroyed slowly turned to dust and disappeared as if the spirit had died.

At the same time, the space that used to be a vast field of reeds collapses.

And soon we were standing in the run-down hotel room we had first entered.

After confirming that the blood flow was gone, Monica looked at me.

A slight frown.

She was looking at my scars.

“···are you okay?”

“Are you bleeding? It hurts.”

That being said, in fact there were no fatal wounds.

It’s just that the flesh has been ripped out by the teeth, so it’s just bitter as if it’s on fire.

There was blood flowing out of it forcibly, and from the outside, it looked like a person who had lived and died.

“Uh…how, do…?”

Monica said in an embarrassed voice.

How do you do it?

I need to stop bleeding for a while.

But I didn’t bring any first aid kits.

“Do you have any bandages or something?”

“Uh, yes, there is.”

Monica scrambled to find her bag and pulled out a first-aid kit from inside.

It was an unexpected readiness.

Besides, she cleaned and bandaged the wound on my arm without me saying anything.

I didn’t even need to do this.

However, there was no reason to refuse kindness, so in the meantime I returned and looked inside the room.

The space was shaking unsteadily.

“…it’s done.”

After a while, Monica said so.

I thanked her.

Looking at the wound, the treatment skill was quite good.

Have you received any professional training?

“Now, let’s go.”

“wait for a sec.”

I left the anxious Monica behind and turned around for a moment.

I had something to take with me.

corner of the room.

There was something on the old, broken bed.

An item that glows purple.

It was definitely not there when I first entered the room.

“hmm···”

I picked it up and went right out with Monica.

Then the door to room 1631 disappears like smoke and returns to the normal wall.

That time when I just wanted it to end like that.

“Mr. Kang Jin-woo?”

I heard a voice calling me.

gloomy hallway.

In the middle of it, Lee Soo-yeon, who was supposed to be an instructor, was looking at me with a stunned expression.

***

next day.

“mmm…”

I got out of bed a little past afternoon.

It was a weekday, but I didn’t oversleep.

Because practice continued from last night to this morning, there was no training assigned today.

Plus, it’s a free day without physical training that continues even on holidays because of an injury.

So I turned on my tablet, wanting to do something, and there was a message.

It was from Lee Soo-yeon.

There is something I want to talk about for a while, so if possible, please reply even late in the afternoon.

So I replied after washing properly.

Soon after, Lee Soo-yeon came to my room.

“…an interview?”

“yes. The head of the training center called me directly.”

Is it because of that monster?

I heard about him roughly from Lee Soo-yeon.

Blood.

The monster me and Monica hunted was too much for the level of trainees and shouldn’t have been there.

Fortunately, we exorcised horses, but the training center couldn’t just pass it over.

Maybe it’s a story about him.

“Are you all right?”

Lee Soo-yeon asked cautiously.

I’m still a bit tired…but it was too much of a loss to refuse.

The rank of the head of the training center is the superintendent of public order.

Among the police ranks, it is the third highest rank from the top.

So, for me who chose to become a police officer after graduating from the training institute, it would be better to leave a good impression.

also.

Personally, I gained quite a lot thanks to yesterday’s work.

Above all, two quests were broken at the same time, and I was rewarded for them.

First of all, the reward for reaching level 10 is ＜Skill Enhancement Ticket＞.

It was an item that strengthened one of the skills I learned.

Of course, except for the item skill, there is only one thing that increases experience, so I put it on hold for now.

And the reward for the practice-related quest, which was a B-class quest, was a new rectangular item and the resulting function opening.

＜Magic Cube＞

– Synthesis, crafting, and reinforcement functions are open.

An item that unlocks three functions.

The icon was the M of the Magic Cube.

However, what more was needed, production and reinforcement, only the window was output, and nothing could be done.

So the only thing that can be used right now is synthesis.

＜Composite＞

– You can combine 2 or more ingredients.

– Grades higher than the average grade of the material are randomly output.

There were skills, attributes, and items to choose from.

Although it takes a while that the result is random.

It was fortunate to be able to recycle the rubbish-like A-class attribute called Blessing of Mana.

And in addition to that, there were also items found in the hotel room after exorcising the Blood Fury.

＜Blood Orb＞

rare item

It’s a marble that Blood Rang had in his body.

You can obtain the skill ‘Gwanghwa’ by using it.

Maybe the increased item drop rate attached to the Ascension skill was applied, or the blood ran out.

However, its use was frankly subtle.

Gwanghwa, i.e. Berserker.

It wasn’t a skill I didn’t know.

Because it was a skill I once had.

Instead of losing a certain amount of sanity, physical power such as strength and reaction speed is increased.

But even if I had it, I never wrote it.

It was because the penalty of losing reason was quite large.

He couldn’t use magic or even swordsmanship properly, and the only thing he could do was distinguish between friends and foes.

At this point, would it be better to use it as a synthetic material?

“Yeah, it’s about an interview.”

“All right. Then follow me.”

I followed Soo-yeon Lee into the training center’s office.

Waiting for me there were two strangers I had never seen before.

One had a normal physique and had an impressive impression, and was neatly dressed in a police uniform.

However, next to him, one of them was huge and had a rough impression that could be called a gangster rather than a cop.

On top of that, he is dressed like a neighborhood man who went to a convenience store to buy soju.

If one of them was the head of the training center… there was only one answer.

“Oh, come on. Trainee Kang Jin-woo.”

Among them, an old man with an impression of Yuhan said.

In the meantime, Lee Soo-yeon left me and left the director’s office.

The only ones left in the room were me and two older men.

“I am Baek Min-seong, the director of the training center. Nice to meet you.”

“Oh, how are you?”

With a bright business smile, I received a handshake from Baek Min-seong, who might be my future boss.

He held my hand gently as if considering my bandaged arm.

“I heard about it yesterday. Did something big happen in practice?”

“under! What’s the big deal?”

At Baek Min-seong’s words, the giant next to him spat out.

If Baek Min-seong is the head of the training center, what is that giant beside him?

With such a question, I watched Baek Min-seong’s reaction.

But he only subtly frowned.

No further reaction was seen.

I saw it and figured it out.

Clearly, that giant was no ordinary person.

“If you’ve been trained for about a month, now you have to catch blood!”

“Oh, that. Do you think everyone is like you?”

“What else can I do? That’s why the training at the training center is lax, dude!”

He chuckled and came up to me and asked for a handshake.

“Yeah, did you say Kang Jin-woo?”

“Ah, yes.”

“This is Choi Deok-cheol, the chief of the Incheon Metropolitan Police Agency. He’s also a Level 1 Exorcist.”

I am the chief of the Incheon Police Agency.

As far as I found out a while ago, the position is three Mugunghwa, one level higher than the Superintendent of Police.

A sense of security that there are only 9 people in the entire police force.

In response, I immediately corrected my expression with a commercial smile and joined hands.

It was a big, strong hand.

“Do you know why I called you?”

he asked like that.

but i couldn’t know

Until I entered this room, I didn’t even know he would be here.

“no. I was just told there was an interview.”

“Um, what would that be? Then do you remember Haeju’s arrows?”

Haeju’s arrow?

Oh, you mean the one that was with you when you unlocked the divine seal?

“Yes, I remember.”

“okay. That helped me a lot. No, I don’t even know what you mean by saying this. So that’s-”

Deokcheol Choi told his story.

I roughly heard that he was cursed, but it was so strong that it was impossible to apply it.

However, Baek Min-seong took the sacred weapon I found and weakened Choi Deok-cheol’s curse.

In the end, it was said that treatment was possible.

In conclusion···

“You are lucky.”

“yes! Ha ha ha ha ha! Old Jangmi Choi was so surprised, you should have seen that face too.”

“Are you the best?”

“There is a fussy doctor at the police hospital. When you start playing the field in earnest, you will be indebted to me often.”

It must have been the doctor who was in charge of Choi Deok-cheol.

However, it seems like a pretty close relationship between a simple patient and a doctor.

“He’s the Commissioner’s cousin with Haeju-related abilities.”

Baek Min-seong added, as if the question was revealed on his face.

I nodded.

“Well, that’s why I came to say thank you… You said you caught the blood ring just yesterday? You’re a better friend than I thought.”

Choi Deok-chul looked me up and down with a serious face.

It was obviously a gaze that seemed to evaluate me, but it didn’t make me feel worse than I thought.

“I thought he was a saengnim because he had non-combat abilities, but it’s not bad. That’s right, if you’re a police officer who doesn’t know what ability you have, combat is basic. Isn’t it?”

Choi Deok-chul laughed and patted me on the shoulder.

It was strangely painful, whether it was because he was secretly strong or if his hands were just hot.

“Brother, let’s talk about that. There is also an injury, shouldn’t trainee Kang Jin-woo also take a break?”

“Um, I guess.”

Choi Deok-cheol cleared his throat a few times and then corrected his expression.

Then he handed me a long black bag.

“Actually, I came to give you this as a thank you.”

“What is this?”

“It’s a shoe I used to wear. You said you were carrying a spanner. It will be more useful than that.”

“thank you.”

There is no reason to refuse to give.

I received a flatbread right away.

When I listened to it, I felt it was quite heavy.

“Yes, I will continue to work hard.”

After that, after listening to Choi Deok-cheol and Baek Min-seong’s blessings, he left the training center’s office.

I immediately went back to my room and opened the bag Choi Deok-cheol gave me.

Then, a sword glowing red came into sight.

＜Star Cloud Sword＞

epic item

50-80 attack damage

strength +10

Agility +10

Attribute [King’s Guardian] Acquisition

– All element resistance +15%

– Stamina +10

– Stamina +10

– Defense +30

– Damage taken when hit -10%

– Guardian Strike +3

Hwando series

It’s an epic item.

Also, the effect wasn’t bad.

The stats were also quite high, and above all, I liked that the attack power was high, but the defensive characteristics were attached.

I don’t have any armor right now, so I’ll have to take it off with this.

There was also an active skill called Guardian Strike.

Until now, the only active was smash, but now I have an attack skill down skill.

“hmm···”

I grabbed my sword and lightly drew it from top to bottom.

Aside from being a bit heavy, it was well balanced.

They said it was written by Choi Deok-cheol, indeed.

It was pretty good stuff.

I happily put it back in my bag.

And fell on the bed.

Getting a weapon was getting it, and getting tired was getting tired.

I just fell asleep again.

***

From the next day, education resumed immediately.

And the first order is the feedback of practical training.

First, Lee Soo-yeon showed the statistics of the horses exorcised during training.

The demons that Monica and I exorcised were 17 white spirits, 1 yellow spirit, and 1 monster.

The number itself was even though there were many more Joes than us.

Of course, we were the only ones who dealt with the emperor and the monster.

So, Lee Soo-yeon continued to explain in detail about the demon that Monica and I exorcised.

The conclusion was how strong the Emperor and Blood were, and exorcising them was a great thing at the level of trainees.

It was a bit embarrassing explanation from my point of view.

That’s how education continued.

Lee Soo-yeon put a little dark content into her mouth.

“But not everyone has had this success. Unfortunately, a fatality occurred during practice.”

At those words, the relaxed atmosphere of the trainees stiffened.

However, the number of people in Class A today has not decreased at all.

The 11 people I usually see, just like that.

In other words, the dead were either class B or class C.

“Two people in Class C were eliminated. Exorcism is such a dangerous thing. So, everyone, don’t be vigilant anytime, anywhere-“

It was a time when Lee Soo-yeon calmly conveyed the sad news and continued her education.

Someone’s voice broke out from the trainee’s side.

“Sounds funny!”

The protagonist of the voice is a certain guy from Class C.

Class C always moved under the control of the teaching assistant.

If you do not follow this, there will be severe punishment.

This was the first time I had heard such a voice.

The assistant immediately tried to stop him, but Lee Soo-yeon raised her hand to stop it.

“Is there anything you want to say?”

Lee Soo-yeon’s gaze was cold.

But the men in Class C shouted without losing.

“Is exorcism dangerous? Don’t f*ck! Oh Jin-hyung, who died that day, was killed by those bastards!”
