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

Episode 676 The Kingdom of Gleiman (1)

I woke up in the sunlight filtering through the leaves.

“Mmm.”

Looking at the ceiling of the tent as I stretched it out, I saw a long stretch of silk embroidered with safflower flowers.

While the days of sleeping on a pile of straw were colorless, the current bed was extremely comfortable.

“Did you cough?”

Philia, who had been on guard all night, said hello.

“You haven’t been able to sleep, have you? Then I get hurt.”

“Thank you for your words, but I haven’t felt fatigue since entering the 6th circle. Let go of your worries.”

It’s nice to see you smiling brightly.

Although she looks young, she is actually not small for her age.

However, because a large amount of mana slowed down aging, it only looked younger.

Looking at the rising morning sun, she spoke softly.

“It’s still early, but I’m going to start soon.”

“Is it this early in the morning? A little fast?”

“yes. It looks like we’ll have to hurry to enter the kingdom in the middle of the afternoon. After all, this area is unexplored.”

I apologize with a smile on my face.

Certainly this area is untouched by man.

Due to the nature of the Kingdom of Gleiman, where the sun sets early and rises early, there was nothing wrong with the monsters rushing around even in the early evening.

Philia gave a small nod and left to inspect the wagon. This time, Rien and Mien, dressed in neat clothes, approached.

“Ah, my lord. Did you cough already?”

Myen is still bright.

“okay. But that’s…”

“Ho-ho-ho. I’m about to oil the wagon. The wheels were damaged after two days of heavy rolling.”

He holds up the dirty oil canister in his hand and says.

surely.

Even if only a few people rode it, it seems that the crowd has gone because a lot of things have been loaded.

“Will it be enough to grease?”

“It’s not long until the kingdom, so this should be enough. Rather, how was the bed I made?”

“Oh, it was so comfortable.”

Soft-

I try to press the bed that is moderately soft and fluffy with my hands.

There has never been a more cozy homestead than this, as the layers of silk block the sunlight and the pleasant smell of grass accompanies it.

“I trained for ten years just for this day.”

What the hell is the Kingdom of Gleiman teaching its servants?

A moment of wonder.

Rien brought a basin full of water.

“I brought you water to wash.”

It seems that the cold stream has been deliberately heated, and steam is blooming.

“thank you.”

Ray washed his hands in warm water and wiped his face.

As her messy hair got wet and ran down her face, Mien, who was watching her, gave a small admiration.

“Does Goddess Gaia choose adults based on their appearance?”

Even if he was arrested for blasphemy in the Holy Land, he casually spits out words that he would not have anything to say.

“I really wish it was like that.”

Ray sighed as he wiped his face with the cotton towel Rien handed him.

It has been more than five years since I became a saint.

However, I still don’t know why Gaia chose her as a saint.

‘I won’t let you hear that common voice.’

well i gave up now

What would be the point even if Gaia gave an oracle now?

After all, he would only talk about venerable priests.

After washing her face, Philia had already finished servicing the wagon.

“Get into the carriage. I will depart.”

“We will arrive at Bourne Kingdom before evening. If you would like to stop by the village, please let me know.”

“are you okay. Let’s go quickly.”

Ray climbed into the wagon.

After confirming the number of people, the coachman hits the horse’s rump a few times, and the lubricated wheel rolls smoothly.

Rattle- rattle-

The friction is a bit annoying, but it should be fine until tonight.

I leaned back against the backrest and adjusted my posture to sit comfortably.

While I was on my way, I was going to read the magic book I brought from Aira’s study, but Filia rode a horse and approached me.

“Before arriving in the kingdom of the Holy Son, I would like to give you a few warnings.”

“A note?”

“yes. As you may know, the influence of the Demonic Church is stronger than that of the Gaia Church in the Kingdom of Gleiman. Holy Son, please do not try to reject those of the Demonic Cult.”

The tone of her speech was very cautious.

Perhaps it was because he thought that telling such a story to a saint of the church could itself be disrespectful.

After silently staring at it without answering, Filia added an explanation.

“There are not a few sacrifices made by the Demonic Church to the royal family. So, the Greyman royal family is giving a few conveniences to the demonic cult. His Majesty the King is concerned that the current relationship may deteriorate.”

Upon hearing this, Ray laughed inwardly.

‘It’s like a greedy person.’

I want to have a magic tool, but the problem that arises in the process is the specification.

King Gleiman had said so.

At worst, he was a snob, and at best, he was a person who knew how to weigh the pros and cons.

Ray had no intention of breaking up with the Demonic Church.

Even if he does, it will be after he has solidified his position.

Until then, saree was good.

“all right. I was thinking of making magic tools and leaving anyway, so there won’t be any conflict.”

“Thank you for noticing.”

Philia let out a sigh of relief.

* * *

After driving for several hours, the border began to appear.

The guards standing guard at the entrance froze and saluted when they saw the carriage with the coat of arms of the Knights of the Kingdom.

“Go through.”

Entering through the gates, the appearance of the Kingdom of Gleiman was revealed in earnest.

Red roofs and towering spiers show the castle’s momentum.

Seeing that a large number of people gathered from the entrance to form a village and the spirit of the guards patrolling was strong, I felt that ‘it really is a great power’.

A stream of water flows from the center of the castle and spreads throughout the village.

The structure itself is beautiful, so even looking at the back alley had its own splendid taste.

As I was looking at the scenery outside the carriage with my mouth open, Klein started talking to me.

“It is a beautiful kingdom. I was always proud whenever I saw the reactions of envoys from other countries.”

Certainly, the Kingdom of Gleiman was so magnificent that he could be proud of it.

The red flags of the Kingdom of Gleiman, seen here and there in the town, are both splendid and noble.

After getting off the carriage, Ray looked around and exclaimed.

“Wow. If the outskirts of the kingdom are this beautiful, I can’t wait to see what the royal capital will be like.”

“ha ha ha. The scenery we see now is less than half of the royal road.”

It was impossible without pouring all the government money into the landscape.

I wonder if I got on the wagon and moved another hour.

I was able to get out of the outskirts and arrive at the capital shortly after.

As Klein said, the royal road was outside the standard.

Did he move all the gardens that would be called beautiful in this world?

Not only was there a lot of greenery in the middle of the building, but huge trees were dotting all sides as if they were pillars, so my mouth dropped open at the sense of intimidation.

It was as if the village of the elves had been mixed in half.

A water canal runs through the beautiful gardens.

However, the appearance was not artificial.

“Please wait here. I will tell the guards and come back.”

As Clein and Philia left, Ray stepped out of the carriage.

The scarlet lanterns lit one by one under the flag of the kingdom hung high are truly beautiful.

On the opposite side of the west where the setting sun sets, the light purple night sky is slowly cast in the east.

“Oh… this is a great view.”

If you have a camera, you want to take dozens of pictures.

The Kingdom of Gleiman must come again sometime.

While I was distracted by the surrounding scenery for a while, an old man in a black cloak approached me.

“You seem to be from another country.”

It looks like a class leader with his head bowed as he goes to town, and on the outside, it looked similar to the greetings of modern middle school students.

“hello.”

Let’s bow briefly, the old man laughs.

“It seems that you are acquainted with the Knights of the Kingdom. My name is Villein, and I am the bishop of the Croel branch of the Demonic Church.”

Speaking of Croel, this is the royal road of Gleiman.

If so, the old man in front of me must be at least the head of the Demonic Cult here.

“nice to meet you.”

He asked for a handshake, so he naturally held out his hand and embraced it.

But at that moment, a thrilling electricity went through my head.

‘This is…’

Margie.

It was also a fairly pure Magi.

Asking for a handshake and pouring demonic energy into the other person, is this old man crazy?

Ray filled the mana and pushed the bishop’s magic.

Since the opponent used the move first, I had no intention of doing it moderately.

Besides, you openly spew demonic energy.

The quality is worse than the woman of the White Guard who used to ask for mana.

The moment he was about to produce mana as sharp as a dagger and discharge it through the bishop’s ingenuity.

While talking with the guards, Klein and Filia, who witnessed the scene, hurriedly ran.

“Saint! It’s not possible!”

“It is a misunderstanding!”

At their urgent tone, Ray barely saved mana.

“misunderstanding?”

“The greeting just now is just an example of the Demonic Cult! This is absolutely not an act of hostility!”

Klein was quick to defend himself.

Fortunately, if it had been a little late, Billanes would have been minced meat.

Upon hearing this, Ray realized that the situation was not serious.

You’re spouting demonic energy, so this is just a yes?

No matter how much I knew that the black room was a gathering place for crazy people, isn’t this too much!

Then, what if even a normal person gets caught and dies!

When Ray, frowning, tries to protest.

Billanes laughed and shook his hand.

“It doesn’t happen as you would imagine. The divine power bestowed by our god is different from that of demons.”

“How could that be…”

What kind of madman would believe that.

Just as he was about to speak, demonic energy flowed out of the bishop’s hand again.

Even if you feel it once again, it is a pure Magi.

The density was high enough to seriously damage the mana load.

Because he didn’t trust Billane, Ray raised his mana so that he could overpower it at any time.

Whoop-!

Contrary to expectations, the bishop’s magic flowed calmly.

Contrary to what I thought would be harmful, it seems to rather make my body lighter.

This feeling is like…

‘It feels similar to the sacred magic of the holy kingdom…’

It was very similar to the divine magic that the priests used to walk.

Ray, who looked down at his strangely light body, met the Bishop’s gaze.

A

smile forms on the bishop’s face with fine wrinkles.

“Because I know the Knights of the Kingdom, I thought they knew the etiquette of our order. You seem surprised, so I apologize.”

It was so different from the image of the Demonic Cult he knew.

A soft and gentle tone.

Adding to that, he admitted his fault and apologized, so he didn’t even want to be angry anymore.

Besides, the bishop himself had spoken.

It’s called ‘divine power from God’.

Do you really mean to receive power from the gods like the holy kingdom?

If that were the case, the holy nation that worshiped Gaia as the only god would suffer a considerable blow.
