Doctor Player Chapter 156
‘Good! You will receive the Borison estate as I requested!’
The territory he requested was the Borison Manor, located deep in the Kennel Mountains in the Lafalde region.
Until now, no one had been granted the Borison estate, so his share was clear.
‘The white crystal mine is my hand!’
White Crystal!
It was a type of magic stone!
Magic Stone is an essential mineral for making magic tools, and its value is truly enormous!
The ‘white crystal’, a type of magic stone, was buried in the Borison estate.
‘It’s a fact I discovered by accident during the war.’
Originally, there was an abandoned mine in the Borison estate, and the white crystal was hidden deep in the mine.
Discovered accidentally during the war.
‘Of course, there are some problems with the Borison estate.’
Raymond frowned.
According to reports, there have been several unidentified patients around the abandoned mine.
I needed to check a little more closely.
‘I can solve this with my medicine.’
A bigger problem is that the quality of white crystal ore seems to be rather low.
‘For some reason, they say it has a slightly different color from the existing white crystal. It seems to be mixed with impurities?’
The white crystal is an ore containing mana within a transparent ore.
The quality is determined by the color of the mana in the ore, and he said that the mana component looks a bit muddy.
Therefore, the white crystals buried in the Borison estate will only be treated as the lowest quality.
‘But even if it’s the lowest quality, a magic stone is a magic stone. It’s worth a lot more than a normal mine. I’m going to be rich today.’
It was such a dream-filled moment.
The Earl of Trenby stepped in front of Auden.
For your reference, Count Trenby bravely went to war with the determination to raise his family as the head of the fallen count family.
He slashed the most enemy knights at the forefront of the battlefield and made a great contribution to preventing the enemy from pursuing fiercely even when he was caught up in a hand-to-hand operation.
So I was able to become the second contributor.
Also, he had a strong rivalry with Raymond, and he gave Raymond a hostile look before stepping out on stage.
‘Yes yes. Try hard. It’s a good day, so I’ll go over with a happy heart.’
Raymond lazily watched the Earl of Trenby receive his award, when suddenly there was a thunderous sound.
“…With these merits, I give you, Earl of Trenby, the Borison estate.”
“…!”
Raymond’s eyes widened.
The Borison estate he had hoped for had gone to the Earl of Trenby out of nowhere!
‘what? Why are you giving the Borison estate to the Earl of Trenby? Nonsense!’
Raymond looked at Chancellor Gallman.
Coincidentally, Chancellor Galman was also looking at Raymond, so their eyes met.
However, Chancellor Galman’s eyes were strange.
For some reason, the look of astonishment.
‘…Why are you looking at me like that?’
Come to think of it, Chancellor Galman wasn’t the only one.
Everyone in the banquet hall was looking at Raymond in amazement.
‘what?’
Then an idea popped into Raymond’s head.
The Borison Manor, where the magic crystal mine is located, went to Count Trenby, the second contributor.
Then, what about Raymond, who made the biggest contribution?
It made sense only when a territory that was more valuable than the Magic Stone Mine was given.
‘Then what kind of land will I receive?’
At that time, people shared this whisper.
“The owner of ‘the territory’ has not yet been decided.”
“Could Baron Penin have ‘the estate’?”
“Nonsense!”
Raymond recalled the map of the Lafalde region in his mind.
And it was stiff.
Then I saw it.
Yeongji, whose whereabouts are yet to be determined.
It was a huge and valuable best manor, incomparable to the Borison manor.
‘…Can’t you stand?’
Raymond’s fingertips trembled faintly.
‘Nonsense. probably not Can you bestow that territory on me?’
Then Oden said.
“Come to the podium, Baron Pennin.”
Raymond gulped and stepped forward.
Everyone in the banquet hall had a hunch about what was about to happen and sent a shocked look.
“Baron Penin, you participated in the war as a war healer and made countless contributions.”
King Auden listed Raymond’s achievements one by one as he had done before.
“As a healer, he saved the lives of countless soldiers and knights and nobles, and led the morale of the soldiers with his heart. He also saw through the cunning plan of the enemy country, saved the allies from danger, and made great contributions to the capture of important castles. also….”
The story that started like that never ended.
It was because there were so many achievements made during the war.
It was a very glorious moment, but Raymond didn’t hear it at all.
Only one thought kept running through my head.
‘Seriously? Give me that territory?’
yet.
“I will give you the following awards for the following merits. I will elevate your title, Baron Pennin, above the Count.”
“…!”
The banquet hall was buzzing.
Above the count!
What a two-step victory!
In less than a year after receiving the rank of knight, he was elevated to the rank of count, which was unprecedented in the history of the continent.
But so far this has been predictable.
Rumors were rife that he would be given the rank of count because the credit he built was so great.
The problem was the fief.
‘Where exactly is the territory?’
‘Could it really be that territory?’
Before opening his mouth, Auden looked at Raymond.
For a moment, deep eyes pierced Raymond’s eyes.
“I will appoint you, Count Penin, as the ‘deputy’ representing Naoden’s will.”
“…!”
“I will appoint you as a ‘special envoy’ entrusted with post-war restoration of the war-torn Lafalde region.”
A strange light appeared among the people.
A ‘special envoy’ for postwar recovery. It was an unexpected appointment.
‘Although it’s a position that suits him as a healer.’
‘It would also be suitable for appeasing the public sentiment of the Lafalde region.’
Everyone tilted their heads.
Of course, it was necessary to restore the war-torn Rafalde region.
Also, since they were a people who had fought as enemies for 100 years, it was necessary to take care of their public sentiment and bring them into the arms of the Houston kingdom.
No one could do this better than Raymond.
As a healer, his ability will shine.
But is this the end?
What estate will he receive?
Then Auden continued.
“Count Penin, as a representative of my will, restore the war damage within half a year, stabilize the Lafalde region, and soothe the public sentiment of the people. If you can accomplish this in half a year.”
A heavy voice sank into the hall.
“In addition to the achievements made in this war, I will give you the Ruin territory as a fief and at the same time seal it as the great lord who oversees the Lafalde region.”
* * *
The banquet hall was shocked and shocked.
Ruin Mansion!
This is where Ruin Castle, the core and capital of the Lapalde region, is located.
For reference, Ruin Castle was one of the largest castles in the whole of the Drowton Kingdom.
It was also the fief of the great lord of the Rafalde region for generations!
The lord of the Ruin region was always called the great lord of Lafald. There has never been a time in history when this has not been done.
‘To think I would get off at a place like that!’
‘You’re going to seal that illegitimate son as a feudal lord of the Rafalde region?’
Everyone in the banquet hall was shocked.
feudal lords!
How high is the seat?
It was the seat of the overlord who ruled over a region of the kingdom right under the king of the lords of the lords.
Would you give Raymond a spot like that?
No matter how conditional it was, it was nonsense.
And Raymond himself thought the same.
‘…Are you calling me a jehu?’
All he wanted was a yolk estate that would simply become super-rich.
I had never imagined a position as high as that of a feudal lord!
So while Raymond was floundering in the waves of shock, someone stepped forward.
“Your Highness, with all your heart, I urge you to reconsider your decision.”
Marquis of Tern!
He was the count of the county west of Houston.
For reference, he is the head of those who support the 3rd Prince Lemerton, and he is out to prevent Raymond’s position from getting stronger.
Others also showed sympathy.
‘It’s too much even for a war hero.’
‘Such an important position should be held by other orthodox nobles… ….’
‘Yeah, that’s too much. I just wanted a land to make a lot of money.’
For reference, the last was Raymond’s inner thoughts.
Raymond nodded his head as if Marquis Tern was right.
As if representing everyone’s feelings, Marquis Terne spoke.
“It is judged that it is right to entrust the Ruin region to someone else who is qualified rather than Count Penin, who has just become Count.”
But for some reason, Oden came out strong.
“Why do you say that Count Pennin is not qualified?”
“that….”
The Marquis of Tern kept his mouth shut.
‘Because he’s an illegitimate nobleman.’
Other than that, there was nothing to complain about.
However, it was a bigger reason for disqualification than any flaws.
Of course, his abilities are acknowledged.
Now, no one was blindly looking at Raymond with contempt for saying that he was an illegitimate child.
However, it is the seat of a feudal lord.
The great lord who will oversee the entire Lafalde region.
There was no aristocrat who wished to hand over such a lofty position to Raymond, if not for any other title.
“Are the others thinking the same? Do you all oppose the giving of Ruin to Count Penin?”
There was no answer.
An atmosphere of apparent opposition prevailed.
But then someone stepped forward.
“Funny. If Count Pennin doesn’t deserve it, then who does? You, the Marquis of Tern, who did not make any contributions during this war? Or is His Highness the Prince of Lemerton, who caused enormous damage to the kingdom army with his wrong judgment?”
unbridled speech.
It was the Duke of Life!
“You’re talking harshly, Your Excellency the Duke.”
“I don’t know what’s worse.”
Duke Leif said coldly.
“Duke Narraif, as the feudal lord of the southern province of Cairn, agrees with His Highness the King’s decision.”
Then another unexpected voice came out.
“I don’t know if this is a good place for me. Anyway, on behalf of the magicians of Houston Kingdom, I agree with His Highness the King’s opinion.”
It was Shameron of the Magic Tower!
Conscious of Duke Life, he stepped forward.
From that point, other voices emerged.
“I agree too.”
“Me too.”
They were nobles who had been favored by Raymond until now!
The number was not so small.
The favor Raymond had given him had returned.
Then a decisive voice came out in support of Raymond.
“Princess Bonn also agrees with His Highness the King’s decision as the 1st princess of the Houston Kingdom and the 4th in line for succession to the throne.”
It was Princess Sophia!
She glared coldly at those who expressed her dissenting opinion.
“Of course, don’t get me wrong. I’m not personally supporting Count Pennin. But to be honest, I don’t know of anyone else besides Count Pennin that would fit this role.”
Duke Leif and Princess Sophia. The hall fell silent as the two giants came forward.
Hahaha the Sister is SO Tsun!
