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

Episode 769 The True Evil Group (2)

So-Young’s plan was simple.

After completely annihilating the bandit’s lair, he disintegrates all nearby merchants, led by himself, the black spirit, and the saint.

Individually, they are the ones who are not pushed back even if they face a single royal knight.

The small to medium sized and above expenses of this frontier could be dealt with with a single finger.

Hearing her plan, the Dark Spirit cast a slightly contemptuous gaze.

“To destroy an innocent Sanghoe by force. Since when did you become so cruel, Soyoung?”

Then, So-Young responded confidently, as if questioning.

“Why are you not guilty? Isn’t it not enough that you colluded with bandits in a place that wasn’t my territory, and alienated the Cerian territory? This is not simply asking us to eat well and live well! Yes, in a way, it’s close to winding good and punishing evil!”

Even bullshit sounds a bit plausible if you put it verbosely.

Hearing her words, the Dark Spirit didn’t seem like a bad plan either.

“That makes sense. In the meantime, the money you earned from the Serian estate will be quite a bit.”

“of course! Could such atrocious bastards have only spent a penny or two? Come to think of it, is it all their fault that the count family has turned into such a beggar?”

That’s not entirely wrong.

It was undoubtedly the merchants from other territories who started blocking the funds.

“Tell me your specific plans.”

Heuk-young’s words made So-young excited and started talking.

“As you know, there are only three small and medium sized guilds, even if they are nearby guilds. It can be seen that these upper ranks are actually holding the line of funds going into Count Cerian’s family.”

The three guilds she speaks of are renowned guilds that dominate this area.

They have recently grown rapidly and have grown to the extent that they can dream of advancing to the royal capital within five years.

Soyoung continued.

“If we absorb it after destroying it, you can kill two birds with one stone by eating a pheasant and eating an egg.”

“So you mean… you mean to plunder and steal the guild?”

“He! Sounds that others will misunderstand!”

She, who had been tempting Dark Young to go banditing, shook her hand in surprise.

Soon enough, Soyoung approached Heukyoung and stabbed him in the side.

“I’m just trying to take revenge lightly. Come to think of it, the Serian manor was not able to use his hands and could not pay taxes, so the manor was taken away. Whose fault is this?”

If that was the cause, it certainly had to do with the upper ranks.

Heukyoung said without loosening his expression.

“But Sanghoe is in another territory. If you mistakenly absorb a guild that is not in the Cerian Territory, it becomes an excuse for a Territory War. What do you plan to do with that?”

Yeongjijeon could become a source of civil war if done wrong.

At a time like now, when the Black Room is plotting chaos in the world, if you take a wrong path, you can no longer turn back.

Soyoung smiled and shook her head.

“No matter how much Count Cerian’s family fell into ruin, it’s the Margrave’s estate. It’s not a place that can be surpassed with a little over 2,000 troops. Monsters are swarming in front and behind you, so you’re crazy and you’re going to bet on a territory battle?”

“…I guess so.”

It might be morally problematic, but that’s none of their business.

It was the one who isolated the count family in the first place, so as So-yeong said, wouldn’t it be self-inflicted?

In the end, Heukyoung, who was shaken by her words, also agreed.

“What can I do?”

“As I said, if you destroy all three tops, it’s over. Oh, but you should get a transfer agreement from the top lord before that.”

“On the surface, there seems to be no problem. i get it. Don’t deal with it right away.”

As Heuk-young was about to leave the office, So-young caught him.

“for a moment. I will do this together.”

When she, who would normally concentrate on gathering information, said that she would act directly, Heukyoung looked back incredulously.

It was to hear the reason, but even if he didn’t ask, Soyoung muttered on her own.

“After sitting on a chair for the past few days, I feel like moths ache to death. Letting go of anger and earning money… At this point, I’m going to have to chop things that interfere with the territory issue like beef jerky. Huhuhu…”

“….”

The excessive stress from work seems to have driven So-young crazy.

It’s not that he can’t understand his feelings because it was a territory where there was no hope.

“okay. Run wild as you like.”

Heukyoung patted his shoulder in pity.

* * *

Heuk-young and So-yeong went straight out of the count house wearing night clothes.

“It’s a bit tight because it’s been a while since I’ve worn it.”

“I don’t know if I’ve gained weight since I haven’t moved in a while.”

“You don’t have to say useless things, black young.”

The black spirit pretended not to notice the gaze shooting from her and climbed over the castle gate.

How long did you walk along the road?

I began to see smoke rising over the mound.

-This smell…

-It looks like they’re burning a corpse.

The two of them, who had been conversing with hand signals, moved closer to the lair.

Then he saw that something covered with straw was blazing with fire.

As he sneaked over to the side, sure enough, it was the corpse of the old man he had killed.

– You found it quickly.

-I know. I thought I’d goof off and find it the next day.

– Rather good. We’re all in one place, so let’s get started right away.

– Wait still. There may be more dogdans in the lair.

-Right. not guide

Heukyoung, who started walking first as if he was accustomed to the winding path of the lair, took the lead and guided him to the place where the courtesy was arbitrary.

Entering the den filled with the musty smell of men’s sweat, So-yeong frowned, but that was all.

When I entered the road on the left from the two roads, I came to the joint where the old man worked.

As the two had expected, there was no sign of further arbitrariness following the old man’s death.

Only bloodstains splashed here and there were painted like a mural.

– You killed it brilliantly.

-If you cut it neatly, it would have raised suspicion.

In any case, this should be known as the work of Count Cerian, not themselves.

To do so, it was necessary to treat the elderly a little more crudely.

Soyoung also had no disagreements.

-good. So let’s deal with the guys outside first.

She took out her beloved sword after a long time and kicked the ground with light steps.

The number of bandits here was at most about a hundred.

They were all out drinking and holding an old man’s funeral, so it wasn’t enough to stand up to her.

When they went outside, the bandits were killed by swords flying from nowhere, screaming in agony.

‘There’s no such thing as a yaksha.’

Well, there’s no need to keep them alive since they’re the ones who caught the villagers and did all sorts of eccentricities.

At first, he wondered if he should help because there were so many of them, but he had to give up his thoughts as he saw So-young slaughter the bandits like wolves chasing sheep.

* * *

“Ho-ho-ho.”

So-young, who single-handedly subdued the bandits, looked quite happy.

He didn’t even think about wiping the blood off his face and covered his mouth while laughing, which was a little creepy even for him, who was in the same position as the security guard.

“You’re probably the only one who feels good after slaughter, Soyoung.”

Soyoung, who was sitting by the nearby stream and was washing away the blood from her body, said while rinsing her mouth.

“These are the ones who will only do harm to the world if left alone. I can’t help but feel good because the villagers don’t have to suffer anymore.”

She stretched herself after telling a story that no one would believe.

“Now let’s move slowly. I want to get there and finish it before dark.”

If you want to arrive at a nearby estate before evening, you won’t have time to rent a carriage.

“If you run in a straight line here, it’s Botenyeong.”

I followed her gaze to where she pointed.

All I could see was a huge mountain range and sheer cliffs.

It was an idea that could be said because she was confident in her steps, but to the black spirit, this was nothing more than crazy.

“There are four castle gates in Boten Manor. If you cross the Serian estate, you will soon find an alumnus.”

“You’re not afraid, are you? It’s a cliff like that, you cross it even when Hongyoung was there.”

“I risked my life to cross.”

“What kind of master is so timid? are you okay. Even if you fall to that level, you won’t die.”

He smiles cutely, but in the eyes of Master Heukyoung, if he falls off that cliff, he will die even if Master Grandpa comes.

To So-young, who says, ‘If it’s really impossible, I’ll go back to the alumni school,’ but her pride as a man doesn’t allow her to answer that it’s impossible.

Even if you are not confident, there are times when you have to brag.

Darkness silently nodded.

“egg plant.”

“That’s why it’s a black spirit. After all, it’s a part of the receiver!”

Sooyoung patted her back.

Dark Young didn’t know yet.

In the future, it took only three hours for the two to arrive at Bottenyeong.

The Great Battle of the Kingdom of Silia.

In the Great War, which was said to overwhelm envoys from other countries only with its size, high-ranking nobles of Silia and priests of the Holy Kingdom were seated.

After leading numerous paladins and priests to the kingdom of Celia, they were upset at the fact that they did not know the location of the saint.

“We gathered under the words of the Holy Son that we received a revelation. If you are not attending the Holy Son in the Kingdom of Celia, where you are receiving help, where are you?”

Silia nobles were at a loss at the old priest’s words.

“He is a very passionate person. I just have to believe that He will come when the time is right…”

It was a boring answer, but it was true.

In fact, if you look closely, the missing saint was the problem, but Celia Kingdom did nothing wrong.

The priests of the Holy Kingdom sighed as if they were frustrated.

“Then, we move alone first. We cannot delay any longer.”

“I agree. If we send a group of three paladins and priests to each territory, the epidemic will be over.”

“Before that, you’d better do some research on the disease.”

Various opinions poured out.

The high priest, who would normally oversee it, was also absent, so the claim was seldom narrowed down.

So the nobles of Silia couldn’t say anything, and only the clergy raised their voices in the Great War.
