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

Episode 761 Choice and Decision (4)

The bishop and priest ran to where the smell of blood was growing thicker.

Her driving was quite rough, as the darkness in the woods made her difficult to drive.

“I’m here to save you! If there is anyone, please tell me!”

No answer came.

However, the scent of blood was stronger than before.

The bishop priest, who got off the horse, memorized the start language.

“Light.”

As the sphere with weak light rises, I can see the surroundings more clearly than before.

A few dead corpses in a gruesome appearance, as if they had been attacked by monsters.

Judging by the bony bones, it seemed that the meal was already over.

“Ugh.”

I feel sick to my stomach when I see this scene in the car that I just finished eating.

By the time she was looking through the forest, she went a little deeper.

There seemed to be a groan coming from somewhere.

“Ugh…”

“Who is there?”

“Please save me…”

“Stay still! I’m coming!”

The bishop, who had heard the sobbing voice, hurriedly ran towards the source of the sound.

As usual, the shadows of the trees and bushes created a darker shade because the magic was turned on in the pitch-black forest.

Let’s approach the gray shadow she appears to be a man.

As if waiting around, thin poison needles flew in.

“Huh! Sea Shield!”

Surprised, the bishop urgently used magic.

Kagaga River-!

Five or six poison needles were blocked by the translucent membrane and fell.

“What are you doing!”

“I didn’t do it… Please help me… Heuk heuk…”

The man only crouched down even more, but didn’t do anything.

Then, are there people around who are aiming for this man’s life?

She moved a little more inward and approached the man.

“…Do not worry. I will definitely protect you.”

“Thank you! thank you!”

“I don’t like the place. I need to get out of here first. Can you run?”

The man shook his head.

When I looked at the lower body, the man’s legs were so cleanly broken that he couldn’t walk.

“Then put me on your back.”

“Is that okay?”

“Do not worry. Because I didn’t neglect training.”

Contrary to the man’s concerns, the bishop easily lifted him up.

When he finally entered the translucent membrane, the man suddenly changed.

“Stupid bitch.”

While showing ridicule, he took out a knife the size of his palm from his bosom and tried to stab the priest in the chest.

Recognizing this belatedly, she tried to drop the man, but it was not easy to get rid of him, who had already clung to her back.

at that time.

Ray approached her closely, blocked the man’s sword, and flicked his hand as if swatting away a mosquito.

Faaaaang-!

With a bang sound, the man’s model landed on the ground.

“Pause Seongja.”

“Are you hurt anywhere?”

“Oh yes…”

“Actually, I didn’t want to talk about it, but it seems the Demonic Church followed me.”

“…”

The bishop wasn’t so crazy that he couldn’t understand even after hearing that much.

“…It’s my fault.”

“If I said no, I would be lying. The Demonic Church would want you without you now.”

‘Let’s talk about it later,’ said Ray, and wiped out all the remnants around him.

The number was less than 10, but the reason why it was less than the first number was probably because a few monsters were defeated.

It was obvious that if left as it was, it would become monster food on its own, so Ray ended up breaking his leg and then his hand.

After a fierce struggle (?) in the woods, the two quietly returned to that path.

She, who had been following silently, spoke cautiously.

“sorry.”

“That’s Okay. It could be.”

“…Are you forgiving me?”

“I’m not as narrow-minded as anyone else.”

Lying halfway down on a horse and talking, it must be being considerate in its own way.

“I’m sorry for speaking harshly earlier. After all, you are a good person.”

“Even if I praise you, nothing comes out. We’re late, so let’s hurry up a bit.”

She nodded slightly.

The conversation disappeared again when the two were running.

Snow the size of a grain of rice fell from the sky.

The bishop priest, who was depressed and unable to raise his head, said looking up at the sky.

“Oh, it’s snow.”

“Really.”

“I thought it was cold for some reason.”

Seeing that it is snowing, it seems that it is about to arrive at the frontier.

At this rate, it wouldn’t be long before we reached Count Cerian’s family.

The horses also spur the speed while making a tour to see if they are excited.

“It is said that good luck comes when it snows on the way. Maybe it’s a reminder that something good is about to happen.”

She smiled as she spoke.

It would be nice if it really is.

Ray just looked up at the sky and ran.

Heukyoung visited the bandit’s lair halfway up the mountain.

His advanced stealth skills made him invisible even to bandits in front of him.

The bandit cave was quite wide from the entrance.

It was large enough for two wagons to come and go at the same time.

The depth is also not like a normal cave, so you can’t predict what’s inside.

Seeing a den of this size, Dark Spirit was puzzled.

‘Why don’t you build a living room when you have a close relationship with the nearby merchants?’

Bandit dens, which are usually said to be large, raise buildings and even build mountains.

That way, it’s easier to talk with merchants and you can collect local tolls as a formality, so bandits tend to prefer living quarters rather than dens.

It’s not geographically lacking nor is it oppressed by the count family, but it’s a little suspicious that they haven’t raised wild vegetables yet.

The Dark Spirit suppressed his curiosity and entered the lair.

A total of four bandits stood guard at the entrance.

All of them have strong muscles, which gives them a stronger feeling than ordinary bandits.

Should I train separately?

A little farther in, this time there were two sentries guarding the road that forked on either side of the small lake.

A sign of mana felt inside the body.

Undoubtedly, they were mana users.

At best, a bandit, a rogue, knows how to handle mana?

It is ironic that such people are standing there as guards or guards.

The bald bandit standing on the left side of the road loosened his shoulders.

“I don’t know who’s coming to a den like this and asking me to stand guard.”

Then the man on the other side chimed in.

“Who is not? Even if I hadn’t neglected my sword all this time, those guys wouldn’t be within a fist’ distance.”

“That’s right, if I had a proper teacher, I would have become a royal knight by now.”

“Ha ha ha! What’s the point of being a royal knight? I might have been given a title and established a prestigious family!”

“Your dream is wild! Ha ha ha ha!”

Heukyoung, who listened to their conversation, was dumbfounded.

Among the prodigies of swordsmanship in the kingdom, only a few are chosen as royal knights.

Even if only one of them steps forward, the bandit lair like this is cleaned up in a matter of hours.

In fact, the proportion of royal knights who reached the level of master was high, so they could be said to have pioneered a path in swordsmanship.

In Heukyoung’s view, even if they were taught by a proper teacher, they would only be lucky enough to make a name for themselves at the bottom of the frontier knights over fifty.

Ignoring the two of them talking back and forth, I went further inside.

At the fork in the two roads, I took the left and walked, and soon a well-paved road appeared that I didn’t think it was a cave.

‘The smell of blood.’

The deeper you go, the thicker the smell of blood.

I pressed my body against the wall and walked along the path.

After the section that looked like a corridor was over, what appeared was a huge cavity.

Heukyoung frowned at the foul smell of earth mixed with the smell of blood, similar to the smell of medicinal herbs.

In the heart, an old man was making something.

He decocts the roots of medicinal herbs planted in the fertile soil and moves them busily, mixing a few unknown ingredients.

At that time, a red-haired middle-aged man approached the old man and said.

“Can you make it on time?”

“Oh, I don’t know yet. However, if it is about one grain, it can be completed within today.”

“It’s not about trying to get just one grain! How much money do you think it cost to get that recipe!”

“I’m sorry!”

The old man clutched his head.

I don’t know how often I get hit, so I don’t know if I get a defensive stance just because I yelled once.

The man who was caught gnashed his teeth.

“The effect is certain, right?”

“Do not worry! Once inside, there is no way to get out! I can be confident with my black magic life!”

“It should be. Because if it doesn’t work, you never know how your body will change.”

“Believe me! I can assure you, even if they are vampires famous for their resilience, they will not be safe!”

At the old man’s continued words, the man looked at him with a ‘hoo’ sound.

“Is that true?”

“yes! It’s poison, but it’s also a curse! It is impossible to decipher or correct the recipe unless you understand it properly!”

Dogdan’s recipe is the only one in the world.

It would mean that they couldn’t even think of doing it because they had it.

Only then did the man burst into madness as if he liked it.

“Ha ha ha ha ha! Then it happened. I have something to write about, so let me know as soon as it is completed.”

“If it’s a place to use…”

The old man thought for a moment, then he was startled and dissuaded him.

“It’s not possible! Didn’t this left tell you! Wait until all dogma is complete…”

“Noisy! Who dares to command me!”

When he shouted with mana, the gloomy spirit made the hall shake.

Even so, the old man did not back down and spoke in a crawling voice.

“This seat will be very angry.”

“Do you think I would care what a girl like that says? Disagreement is over, so bring it as soon as it is completed.”

As if he would not allow a counterargument, he even flaunted his life, but it didn’t seem like he could say anything just because he was an old man.

“All right.”

The old man, who answered with a mixed feeling, went back to his job.

When the man who was caught was also about to return.

Suddenly he drew his sword.
