The Wrong Way to Use Healing Magic

A region far from the Kingdom of Lingle, covered by black clouds.

In a place that is not fit for human habitation, towering high above the land is an eerie castle.

"......... hmmm."

The lord of the castle is a handsome man sitting in a heavily decorated chair.

He is surrounded by a dimly lit, aged throne-like interior.

A tall, red-haired woman kneels before him. The woman was hardly human in appearance, with brown skin, shoulder-length red hair, and a well-defined face, but most striking were the twisted horns on her head.

The man slowly opened his mouth to the red-haired woman, who appeared to be his retainer.

"How is the invasion of the Lingle Kingdom coming along?"

"Everything is going well. We have our troops in place and are steadily preparing for the invasion, and will soon be able to begin our march.

The woman, who appeared to be a retainer, did not seem offended by the arrogant man's attitude and replied in a casual manner.

"Well, ...... is fine. Back off."

"Ha."

The woman, bowing her head reverently, obeys the man's order and leaves the room.

The woman exhales as she leaves the room, as if all her tension has been released.

"I'm still a little choked up about talking with the Demon Lord."

"Are you sure?　You're the commander of the Third Army, the Commander of the Third Army, you can't say that. ......"

"...... Hulk, huh?"

From behind the complaining woman, a man with horns like a sheep's head, Hyrulk, spoke to her in a broken tone.

"I don't mind. The demon king is a generous man, and he doesn't care a bit about my level of disrespect. How about you, then?　Master Demonologist?

Don't call me such a strange name. We're in the same class, so you can call me Hulk."

"Hmmm ......"

Hulk pokes his head in annoyance at the woman who walks away as if she has no interest in him.

"Ha-ha-ha, to answer your earlier question, ...... I have completed the prototype of the magical monster."

"Oh, how's it coming?"

"Well, it's got a powerful venom, a big frame, and sharp fangs. And a beauty that transcends the borders of life itself. ......

What's its name?

"Demonic Monster Prototype 72, Barzinak!　My masterpiece!

"Hmm?　Hmm? That's the same name as the 71 you were talking about before, right?　What happened to it?

The woman wonders about Hulk's words and calls out to him. He sits down on the ground with his eyes downcast.

"Oh, that boy. He was successfully repulsed by the leader of that country's army during the previous march on the Kingdom of Lingle and has never been seen again. ....... At that time, I felt like I had lost my own child.

"Sigurth, the Lord Commander. If he's good enough, he can fight them off.

The image in the woman's mind is that of a knight reaping his enemies with a martial sword wrapped in flames.

"But there was a more troublesome group than him in the last battle.

"Uh, I don't know much about them as a technician, but you mean the "kidnappers"?"

"Yes, those guys. Soldiers who are on the battlefield but don't fight. I can't tell you how much trouble they gave me in the last battle. ......"

A woman with a bitter look on her face as she recalls her earlier march to the Kingdom of Lingle. The failure of the previous invasion had hurt her pride so much.

Hulk, who has a question for the woman with a bitter expression on his face, asks her a question with a curious look on his face.

"Well, why don't we just kill them first?"

"...... can't do that. They are very stubborn. Besides, even moving around with a wounded man in your arms is not much different than normal. Besides, their boss is ......"

Who's the boss?

"........."

I looked at the woman with a frown and clenched teeth and wondered what had happened to her boss. The woman begins to explain on her own, leaving Hulk to wonder about such things.

"Their boss is a master of healing magic."

"......I see, you mean to heal the injured brought by your men in a safe place. ......"

"That's what his men do. He will personally go out into the battlefield and heal the wounded on the spot. ...... The d*mned thing is that no matter how much he is attacked, he can heal the wounded and fatigued in the blink of an eye, so invulnerable that he can be mistaken for a non-human being. The healing speed is so fast that it is impossible for ordinary recovery magic. At the root of it all is a rare and inconspicuous magic called healing magic. It keeps his body in tip-top shape."

"......... If used in such a way, there is no way the body of an ordinary human being could withstand it."

Even Hulk is not called Doctor of Demons.

He is also familiar with the structure of the human body, as he has even included humans in his research. From what she has told us, no matter how much she has shown her ability beyond human limits, there is no way that an ordinary human being can endure the pain of musculature, bones, and internal organs.

And anyone who tries to do so must be a daredevil and reckless.

"The problem is that I endure it. He is a monster who only lost his right eye in a killing spree with my master before the Demon Lord returned!

"You know that the First Legion ...... is a monster, don't you?"

"...... I don't know, I don't know anything about that."

Hulk sighs at the woman who is determined to keep her mouth shut.

"You must be ...... pretty skilled to survive against ...... your master."

"Huh, the new guy in my unit doesn't believe my story for a second. "Huh, the new guys in my unit don't believe me for a second, but they're going to get a taste of what it's like during the next invasion.

"You're telling me that much ......"

"But I, myself, will avenge ...... Master's ...... death in the next invasion by avenging ...... him by taking on ...... Rose."

The woman turns her head in the direction of the kingdom of Lingle, leaving Hulk to mutter casually, "Your master is alive, though.

"In the name of Amira Berghlet!

"Your role this time is to lead the troops, you can't go to the front ......."

"Oh, .........."
