Doctor Player Chapter 139
“Please take care of Hanson.”
“Yes Master.”
Raymond entrusted Hanson with post-surgery care.
I wanted to stay and cling to treatment until the end, but circumstances did not work out.
Before Archduke Berard noticed, he and the young king had to capture the capital.
‘I’m still in critical condition, so it would be best for me to stay, but I can’t help it.’
The alliance with the Lan was made entirely by Raymond.
So it didn’t make sense for Raymond, the person involved, to fall into occupation of the capital.
‘Hanson should be good to you.’
Did you feel that gaze?
Hanson said.
“I will do my best. Don’t worry, come back, Master.”
He spoke in a determined voice.
“The former master’s first apprentice. I will not lose a patient even if I risk my life.”
Then, an unexpected person helped out with one arm.
“Patients, don’t worry too much, light of the heathen. I will help with you.”
Raymond made a surprised face.
He was the best healer of the Lan people!
‘The name…Did I say Kurun?’
He is a person in his mid-thirties, but he has been looking at Raymond with great envy since he healed the heir of the chieftain.
‘…His eyes look like Hanson 2.’
Raymond cleared his throat.
Anyway, he is an A+ level healer.
It will help Duke Leif recover.
‘Heal is also a useful power for treating patients if used appropriately.’
Raymond nodded.
“thank you. Then I will ask you.”
Raymond, who entrusted the Duke of Life to Hanson and Kurun, the best healer of the Lan tribe, stood before the warriors of the Lan tribe.
Everyone was waiting for a word from Raymond.
‘Hmm what do you say? I’m not a soldier, so I’m not familiar with pre-battle speeches.’
Fortunately, skills helped.
[We are working hard for the victory of our allies!]
[The ‘Guardian Doctor of the battlefield’ attribute is manifested! It exerts power beyond its capabilities!]
[The effect of the skill ‘Heart of Steel’ is enhanced!]
[The effect of the skill ‘Doctor’s Charisma’ is enhanced!]
[The skill ‘Common Command’ is manifested!]
‘Guardian of the battlefield’ Thanks to the ‘Doctor’ attribute effect, the effects of several skills have been enhanced.
Thanks to this, Raymond has a stronger will in his heart and exudes charisma that gives solid trust.
Thanks to this, at first glance, he looks like an iron-blooded warrior with a great will.
As the Lan warriors stood on the podium, they gulped at the sight of Raymond exuding strength (?).
‘As expected, the light of the other side.’
‘It’s not just a healer. After all, he is a respectable warrior!’
Receiving such stares, Raymond opened his mouth.
“There is one thing I want to ask of you.”
Is it because the skill has been strengthened?
Strong charisma dwelled in his voice.
The Lan warriors listened to Raymond with bated breath.
“I will not speak at length. Please come back alive. That is a request I would like to make to you. Let’s come back alive and enjoy victory together.”
This was Raymond’s sincerity.
He really didn’t want anyone to die.
I know that as long as it is a war, someone will inevitably die and get hurt, but I still want the sacrifice to be minimized.
Because he was a healer who was responsible for people’s lives.
Did you feel his sincerity?
The warriors of the Lan tribe were silent for a moment, heartbroken.
and after a while
“Wow!”
“We win!”
“Long live the Prince of Houston! Long live the light of the heathen!”
A shout that seemed to leave echoed through the desert.
That’s how Raymond left the residence of the Lan people.
He was followed by 3,000 brave warriors of the Lan tribe.
Now it was the turn to capture the capital with the young king.
* * *
First of all, Raymond joined Machapel III at the agreed point.
Perhaps thanks to the care of Linden, who remained in the Winter Palace, Machapel III was almost fully recovered.
Other than that, there was good news.
“I will see Baron Pennin, the Light of the Houston Kingdom Army. Baron Melik of Drowton.”
“I am called Viscount Tees.”
Thanks to Machapel III’s secret contact, some nobles from Droton joined!
Of course, the number of soldiers who came with them was not large.
About 500 people?
Still, when combined with the warriors of the Lan tribe, there were about 3500 people.
They cried out in desperation.
“Now the capital is empty!”
“We must attack the capital immediately!”
Raymond agreed with them.
Archduke Berard, intoxicated with the great victory won by the Marquis of Durac, personally led the soldiers of the capital and marched north.
Thanks to this, the soldiers were empty, and the defense posture of the capital of the Droton Kingdom was a mess.
‘It’s a race against time. Before Berard notices and returns, we must immediately occupy the capital and declare Berard a traitor.”
With that in mind, we advanced to the capital.
A majestic castle appeared.
“Oh no? that one?”
“An enemy invasion!”
The soldiers remaining in the capital shouted in surprise when they saw the enemies appearing out of nowhere.
At that time, Machapel III rode on his horse and stepped forward and shouted.
“I am Machapel III, King of Drowton! Jim has returned, everyone open the door!”
“…!”
Drowton’s soldiers widened their eyes.
What a young king!
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
“Truly the King. Should I open the door?”
“but….”
They have followed the orders of Archduke Berard until now.
But suddenly, the orthodox King Machapel III appeared and shouted, and confusion arose as to what to do.
At that time, a knight came out from the castle.
As a knight of the pro-Berard faction, he had been ignoring the young king until now.
“noisy! Our master is His Highness, Grand Duke Berard! How dare you give orders to a scarecrow-like young king who is about to be dethroned?”
“…!”
“Everyone, don’t be shaken and get ready for defense! If you hold out a little longer, reinforcements will arrive!”
At that order, the defenders raised their weapons.
I was confused about whether I could raise my weapon against the king, but I had no choice but to obey the command given by the commander next to me right away.
Raymond’s side frowned.
“That’s the expected reaction.”
“We must conduct a siege and capture it.”
But that was then.
An unexpected message popped into Raymond’s ear.
[A quest occurs ahead of a big battle!]
[Occupy the castle with minimal damage!]
(Ninjutsu Quest)
Priority: Medium
Difficulty: Medium
Quest Description: A fierce battle is about to begin. Many sacrifices are predicted. As the Guardian Doctor of the battlefield, reduce the damage to your allies by minimizing sacrifices.
Clear conditions: Minimize damage to allies
Reward: Bonus level up x 2 Skill points 50
Bonuses: Soldiers’ respect. When Raymond saw the unexpectedly great achievement (?)
quest, he hesitated for a moment.
‘Minimize the damage?’
He soon understood the content of the quest.
‘This time, we’re the ones attacking the castle. If I push it recklessly, it will cause great damage.’
When a siege occurs, the attacking side suffers overwhelming damage.
I had to come up with a way to minimize the damage to my allies.
‘And I can’t be 100% sure that the castle can be captured even if the siege continues like this.’
In terms of power alone, this side had the upper hand.
But the enemies are relying on the walls.
If you just recklessly pushed, you could fail to capture it.
‘Is there any trick?’
I was thinking about it.
[The attribute ‘Guardian Doctor of the battlefield’ is manifested in the desire to reduce the sacrifice of allies! It demonstrates power beyond its ability!]
[Intelligence stat increases by 10 points!]
Is it because of such an increase in intelligence?
A brilliant idea came to my mind.
“Your Highness, is there any secret passage connecting the palace and the outside?”
In ancient castles, there are usually secret passages of this kind.
It was in preparation for the danger of the castle being captured.
“You mean the secret passage?”
Machapel III nodded with a puzzled face.
“There is a secret passage passed down from generation to generation only to kings. But why? if?”
King Machapel III realized Raymond’s intentions and widened his eyes.
Raymond smiled.
“If we continue the siege, there will be great damage. Why don’t you use the secret passage to carry out a diversion operation?”
* * *
A handful of elite knights infiltrate and open the castle gate while drawing the attention of the guards pretending to be siege outside!
This was Raymond’s plan.
‘This way, I can capture the castle with minimal sacrifice!’
Others agreed with Raymond’s plan.
“Great idea. It seems that the soldiers’ sacrifices can be reduced and the castle can be captured quickly. As expected, the greatest genius of the Houston kingdom, Baron Penin!”
“We, the Lan, also agree with the light of the Gentiles. It is a brilliant opinion.”
Machapel III All the Lans of Drowton admired Raymond’s plan.
However, there was one problem.
“You mean that Your Highness has to come personally?”
“In the middle of the secret passage, there is a magic circle that can only be opened by the royal family of the Drowton family. I have to go myself.”
“that….”
When the king said that he had to take the risk himself, the nobles on the Drowton side showed disapproval.
Of course, Machapel III bravely stepped forward.
“Do not worry! Although young, Jim is the king of Drowton. I won’t be left behind in reclaiming the capital.”
“But, has Your Highness not fully recovered yet?”
“What does it matter? Baron Pennin will go with you anyway.”
Raymond looked at Machapel III in surprise.
‘Why am I going there?’
Raymond had no intention of joining the Order.
Because he was a safety first!
Of course, I intended to stay in the safe rear.
‘It’s dangerous to participate in a death squad. I don’t like anything dangerous.’
I was expressing my displeasure inwardly.
Raymond rolled his eyes at the sudden thought.
‘for a moment. Are the death squads really dangerous?’
There were only a handful of soldiers guarding the castle now.
It was because Berard, who was certain of victory, dragged all the soldiers and marched north.
Therefore, it was clear that when the siege began, all remaining soldiers would be mobilized to the walls and cling to the defense.
Of course, the royal palace where the death squad was heading would be empty, and there was little chance of a conflict.
‘Rather, those who remain here are more likely to get involved in battle, right?’
They currently have 3500 troops.
It wasn’t a small number of troops, but it wasn’t a large army either.
So even the cove wasn’t very safe.
In the event of an actual battle, there was a high possibility that they would all get caught up in it. In the worst case, you may be hit by a blind arrow shot from above the castle.
‘Even if you participate in the death squad, you can make additional contributions, right? It’s because it plays the biggest role in the fall of the capital!’
After thinking about it, it was low risk, high return!
“I will participate too.”
“Baron Pennin?”
“The death squad needs a healer because you don’t know what dangers might come your way. As a healer, I will be with you.”
what is the risk
It was judged to be safe, but on the outside, he pretended to be for the patient.
Because it is Raymond who never forgets image making.
