The Brilliant Healer S New Life In The Shadows Volume 4

Now that the situation with Liz has been resolved, Zenos shifts focus to researching the Black Guild. He soon learns of an important figure within their ranks who is supposedly able to heal any malady. Suspecting this might be his childhood friend Velitra, who once studied under the same mentor as him, Zenos decides to look further into the matter. Zenos suspects that Velitra has their old mentor’s notes. If Zenos is correct, his old friend might also hold the key to finding out more about the mysterious man. Unfortunately, the Black Guild is shrouded in mystery, and information on their executives is guarded closely. Left with little other recourse, Zenos seeks out an information broker to help him gather the knowledge he seeks. Will Zenos manage to infiltrate the Black Guild? And if he does, what secrets will his prying reveal...?

With everything at the Royal Institute of Healing settled, Zenos, Lily and Carmilla return to their routine at the clinic in the ruined city. As Zenos reminisces about his mentor and his past, the three demi-human leaders announce the slums’ first-ever night festival to foster camaraderie and provide people with much-needed entertainment. Of course, the three of them being who they are, the festival also ends up turning into a “friendly” competition for Zenos’s heart. In a shocking turn of events, the peaceful festival is very nearly ruined by the sudden appearance of a certain underground faction of the slums...

Life hasn’t been kind to Zenos. He was born in the slums, and his dirt-poor background has denied him almost every opportunity. After an encounter with a healer, he throws himself into studying to become one and finally catches a break when an adventurer invites Zenos into his party. Zenos is thrilled—so thrilled, in fact, that he’s willing to put up with his teammates treating him like garbage. They fail to appreciate his talents and ultimately kick him to the curb, claiming he’s outlived his usefulness to them. Now bereft of money and out of options, Zenos decides to put his self-taught skills to use elsewhere and opens an underground clinic. Word quickly spreads about the brilliant healer working incredible magic in the city’s shadowy underbelly. Even the royal palace is taking notice... Can Zenos buck the odds and carve out a life for himself in a world that’s spit in his face? And can he save the lives of the patients who wind up on his doorstep in the process?

After following up on a lead about Callendore’s involvement in child trafficking, Krishna discovers the rumors to be true and finds herself in mortal peril—that is, until Zenos comes to her rescue just in the nick of time. Having earned the knight’s appreciation and added yet another “unique” lady to his ever-growing collection of difficult patients, our exasperated hero returns to his usual routine. Elsewhere, a certain healer-less party finds out that maybe they’ve made a terrible mistake. Soon Zenos finds himself having to deal with a new problem—well, an old problem, really. As trouble continues to follow the shadow healer wherever he goes, his wish for anonymity slips further and further away from his grasp...

Born a poor man in the slums, Zenos never had opportunities in life, so he decides to forge his own opportunities by teaching himself the curative arts after a chance encounter with a healer. When an adventuring party led by a man named Aston extends him an invitation, Zenos is elated—only to then be treated like dirt by his teammates. Despite Zenos’s diligent efforts to hone his skills to nothing short of perfection, the party deems him useless and kicks him out. Bereft of money and options, Zenos starts an illegal clinic and becomes a shadow healer. Word of his healing genius spreads quickly throughout the city’s underbelly, and as his reputation grows among the dregs of society, knowledge of Zenos's esteem reaches the wrong ears...

Exhausted after dealing with the golem incident, Zenos decides to get some well-deserved rest and travels to a hot springs resort. His ability to actually rest, however, is greatly impaired when his collection of problem patients follow him there. Coincidentally, Umin, a healer affiliated with the Royal Institute of Healing, also happens to be staying at the exact same inn. When an accident befalls their hosts, Zenos once again demonstrates his “plain ol’ shadow healer” abilities, and in so doing yet again attracts the exact kind of attention he didn’t want. Now on the Institute’s radar, Zenos is faced with an unexpected request...
