To Hell with Being a Saint, I’m a Doctor

Episode 657 Wins Heart (1)

“Gleiman Kingdom is using a large force for defense because its protective magic circle has been lost since the age of magic! If the Holy Son solves it, I can promise you a big reward!”

Gayman shouted loudly, and the other nobles raised their voices as well.

“Gleiman is not really a neutral country! Why does a kingdom, one of the few in the history of wars, need magic tools? On the other hand, our kingdom of Slaine is in the middle of a cold war with neighboring small countries!”

“Now, don’t get excited and line up one by one. Hehehe.”

He calmed the hall with a sly smile.

The kingdoms that were at war were frantic to get the magic tools, and the kingdoms that were not were also jumping into the auction for national power.

“what. But what about the Lessian Empire? If this is the case, it might be better to trade with other kingdoms.”

The Lessian Empire, who was watching their fight as if it had nothing to do with them, was startled by Ray’s words.

They never thought they would have to join the fight.

The two of them, thinking that they had saved up a magic tool, hurriedly opened their mouths.

“I, our empire, will issue a merit plaque above the existing identification card.”

“A merit plaque?”

“yes. You can be treated anywhere that is friendly with Lesian. I can’t give you a separate title, but when it comes to courtesy, I promise you a lord level or higher. Oh, and you also have the authority to command some of Lessian’s troops, so you can use it when you need it.”

Gregory bowed his head in disdain.

can’t give title

It was also in line with the saying that the nobles could not be praised for their merits.

Lessian had no territories left.

Therefore, although formal titles can be given, territories cannot be bestowed.

If it had been someone else, he would have waved his hand and refused, but to Ray’s ears, there was no such sweet offer.

‘In short, it means I can go somewhere and not go hungry.’

There are no cumbersome titles and no territories to manage.

It just felt like an honorary aristocrat, but the effect would be as certain as Lessian guaranteed.

In addition, the part of being able to command the troops of the empire, at least part of it, appealed to me.

Following the friendly relationship, the plaque of merit in the back.

Ray made up his mind.

“great.”

He really thought so, but Gregory and others thought it was a pretense.

‘He saves the face of the empire.’

‘Tsk tsk. If you don’t have a proper territory, it’s more sincere to bet on funds.’

He shook his head so as not to be seen by nobles from other countries.

Of course, plaques of merit were originally nothing more than a common form for nobles.

Of course, even so, it was different from other plaques of merit, but it was useless in that it could not receive a territory.

It was a proposal that could work because Ray was not interested in the estate from the beginning.

Gregory felt a bit bitter when he saw Ray pretending to be happy to save their side.

“If you are not satisfied, please tell me at any time. I may not know Lessian, but I, Gregory, will always answer your call.”

“If you call me, albeit weakly, I will help the saint.”

Selena winked and supported Gregory’s words.

Those were the words of a country’s sword master and the chief court mage of the 6th circle.

If you can get help, there won’t be that much power.

It was a suggestion that he liked, but when he was able to get two free help, Ray was very apprehensive.

‘Huh. This works out very well.’

Even in the Lessian Empire, this much was ripped off, but how much can it be ripped off in the remaining kingdoms!

When there were already only two remaining three magic tools left, the excited nobles rushed more aggressively.

“Saint! Our kingdom is famous for its ports! I will add the half-man top to the list of ten ships and port special officers!”

“Gleiman Kingdom can promise a lot! If you visit the kingdom in person, I am confident that we will make a deal that suits your heart!”

“The Baybon Kingdom is…!”

Excited Ray shouted at the thought of making sure to win the match.

“Hahahaha! Anything is fine, so bring everything!”

Countless stakes began to go up and down on the market board at no time.

Hafman, who searched the southern region of Celia, became impatient when the desired slave did not appear.

“This is strange. The Bone Merchant couldn’t find a single child. It’s weird, but it’s just too weird.”

No matter how nervous he is, he forgets to count gold coins, which is one of his daily routines, and his legs are trembling.

The branch manager, who was looking at the situation, added cautiously.

“Couldn’t they have already run away?”

“escape? More than seven hundred people took part in the search. I searched for all the remnants of the black room nearby and took them off, but do you think one child can escape?”

That too.

Certainly, even if the branch manager thought about it, it was a situation that made no sense, so the worries between the two only deepened.

While drinking tea and cooling his head, the branch manager suddenly thought of the two slaves Lacia had taken.

I was thinking about it, but could it be that one of the two was the slave Danju was looking for?

“I… Sober.”

“why?”

Halfman, who has become nervous from having poured his heart out before, answered.

He carefully opened his mouth.

“Could it be one of the two slaves you took?”

“Take me? who?”

“Have you not reported it before? The thing that Lady Lacia said she would do to find out where the slaves live.”

At the words of the branch manager, Hafman pondered.

After listening to it, it seems that I have received such a report.

‘Even after searching the whole area, there was no slave that Taesangdan Lord said. If there is a possibility, it would be one of those two.’

The chances of that happening are remarkably low, but there is no other option for now.

“There is nothing wrong with checking. It’s where Taesangdanju’s family resides, so don’t make a fuss about it.”

“Are you saying it for granted? I will bring you a present.”

Also, one hair is good.

Even if it wasn’t, I was thinking of sending a housewarming gift, but if I pretended, I pretended.

“I’ll be sure to say hello on my behalf as well.”

“I’ll even repair the house while I’m away, and I’ll come back.”

The branch manager, who had taken a step further, walked away excitedly as if he had taken a leave of absence.

Watching him, over 50, find joy in trivial things, it made me feel as if he had made me do too much work for no reason.

Hafman, who was still planning on working for ten more years, had no intention of letting him go.

The next day, the branch manager hurriedly packed up the staff.

As the size of the top of the half-man is huge, all the manpower is running tight.

As much as I had to cull out the members myself, I needed to move quickly.

After traveling from branch to branch, he was able to bring in two members and five escorts.

In front of two luxuriously packed carriages, he made a final check.

“Did you pack all your things?”

“yes. I checked without fail.”

“Good. Then let’s go.”

After the members of the upper ranks and the escort got into the carriage after they had finished preparing, the branch manager started the carriage.

Driving his own carriage, he moved his horse along the main road.

The member riding in the back spoke up.

“The branch manager is where you are going now. Is it possibly related to Lord Taesangdan?”

“Sweet Lord is a commotion. Never be rude…”

Contrary to members with quite a bit of experience, the new members were intimidated.

It must have been because of the excessive fuss of Danju.

The branch manager answered with a tight grip on the reins.

“This is the home of Lord Taesangdan.”

Surprised by the words, the two members opened their mouths in a fright.

“yes?!”

“Bongar!”

The home of Taesangdanju!

Is it a place where they, who are only one member, can go!

“If it is Lord Taesangdan, you are a saint with a high reputation, right? Can we really go?”

“There is nothing wrong. But, as the Sovereign said, never be rude.”

“It’s unreasonable to be rude!”

“I never thought the day would come when I could see the Holy Son’s home….”

They look back at each other with bewildered faces, as if their emotions were new.

He laughed, so the branch manager smiled and said,

“Release your tension. They are all good people.”

“…yes.”

“However, it is strange. It’s not enough that the number of people was suddenly packed, and that place is Taesangdanju’s hometown… Can I ask the reason?”

“Umm…”

He was taken aback when he received an unexpected question.

It is not possible to say that he is going to retrieve the two slaves that Lacia took right away.

In addition, the kingdom of Celia is strictly prohibited from owning slaves.

It was nominally to save them a new place to live, but since Lacia had slaves, it was difficult to avoid her gaze.

At that, the branch manager cleared his throat and spoke earnestly at first glance.

“Sorry, but I can’t tell you that.”

Maybe it was because he said it with a voice that didn’t answer.

The quick-witted member nodded and apologized.

“It seems to me that the question is off-topic. sorry.”

“Heh heh heh. As a member of the upper ranks, it is reasonable to ask the reason for going up. But it’s good to keep in mind that sometimes there are things we can’t tell you.”

“yes. I will be careful.”

How many hours did they run while chatting with each other?

As we drove through the woods on the now narrow road, the hills slowly began to emerge.

By the time a huge rock appears.

I could see a cute house down the chimney where the smoke was rising.

“I’ll be arriving soon, so be alert.”

At the words of the branch manager, the members were very nervous.

“That’s…”

“This is Taesangdanju’s home.”

It was much more normal than I thought.

In the yard, what appeared to be a father and daughter were sparring while laughing hahahaha.

“You’re getting better day by day!”

“Your father has reached maturity now.”

As he shared the sword, a shockwave was generated around him.

Faaaaang-!

Caan-!

Every time the swords collided, a gust of wind blew up, so even getting close was terrifying.

“It’s going to go right now, so be careful!”

“Ho-ho-ho! I speed it up a little too!”

With those words, sword spirit rises from the wooden sword.

Who would pull out a sword aura in Dalian!

When the members are stunned and watching.

The front door opened and a beautiful woman walked out.

“Everyone stop and come in and have lunch.”

Despite the sword aura flying in front of her eyes, the woman’s expression was extremely elegant.

Peace as if dealing with everyday life.

Even the escorts at the top fixed their eyes blankly.

“This is the home of Lord Taesangdan….”

Indeed.

That strength all came from the environment.

Discovering the starting point of the saint’s absurd force, they slowly nodded in agreement.
