“Priest, the patient is complaining of abdominal pain.”

“Yes, I’m going!”

Professions that appear in the game, such as inspectors, priests, thieves, and archers.

Among them, priests usually play the role of healers.

They are responsible for treating the soldiers, and when they pray, they perform miracles by instantly healing their wounds.

‘I didn’t know.’

I didn’t know when I was playing.

How difficult a job being a healer is.

* * *

Usually, when playing a game, many people choose the dealer.

Among them, only a small number of people choose to play as a healing character, and in the case of support characters, there are often not many people who play that role, so there are often cases where it is difficult to recruit people.

So I chose supporter.

Because they are precious, they are treated like royalty by people.

The experience of being treated well as a supporter in the game influenced my next life.

Do you want to be a knight, a wizard, or a cleric?

As a child, I had many choices.

Learning swordsmanship requires a lifetime of sweat and training, which I didn’t like, so I refused.

Learning magic requires sitting in a chair and wrestling with books for the rest of your life, but that also felt like a rejection, perhaps because of memories from a past life.

I thought that my studies during my third year of high school and the time I spent earning certifications to get a job were sufficient.

“I will enter the church.”

So I chose a healer.

I remember always playing as a supporter when I played games, so I didn’t have much resistance to it.

And here too, healers were rare.

A precious healer that not just anyone can do.

So I was 9 years old.

He leaves home, enters a church, and begins his life as a priest.

And soon after, I realized how wrong my choice was.

‘This is too much.’

Since the inspection only requires training, at least your head won’t hurt.

A wizard only has to use his head, so at least his body doesn’t have to suffer.

But the priest had to do both!

Wake up time 5am.

After washing up and getting dressed, I had to pray the dawn prayer for two hours.

After the prayer, we had breakfast and then had to receive instruction.

The 10 books of the Bible containing the word of God.

It was our job to memorize the entire Bible, which was written in tiny letters and had nearly 3,000 pages per volume.

And we take tests every quarter to make sure you’ve memorized the Bible.

Since we had to pass the test to advance, our top priority was to memorize the Bible.

‘Never fail!’

Failure was absolutely unacceptable because if I failed, I had to spend 100 hours in prayer of reflection.

The problem was that there wasn’t an end to what there was to learn.

After receiving Bible education, I had to sing hymns in the choir, and I also had to learn about history, culture, art, and exorcism rituals.

All kinds of classes are packed into the day.

After finishing all the classes, we eat dinner and the evening prayer begins.

‘Isn’t praying after eating a bit too much?’

After two hours, when I can’t tell whether I’m praying or dreaming, it becomes a dark night and I have to go to sleep.

You only realize this after experiencing that kind of life yourself.

I made the worst choice ever!

I should have known why healers were valuable.

There were many users who didn’t play the game because it wasn’t fun, but we should have considered that there might be other reasons in reality.

‘Well, becoming a healer is fucking hard…’

I, a cripple, didn’t know that.

I was a foolish being who tried to suck honey but ended up making an irreversible choice and falling into the mud.

Once you have entered the church, you cannot leave it without being excommunicated.

And there is no place in the world that looks kindly on a dismissed priest.

There is no place where a dismissed priest can rest comfortably.

That’s why I became a healer.

Even if you become a healer, you won’t have an easy life.
