Doctor Player Chapter 181
‘Eh?’
Raymond’s eyes widened.
‘Pairing. what’s this?’
An explanation came to mind.
[Pairing: A contract with Youngsoo. Receive absolute favor and love from the other person.]
‘Youngsoo? Aren’t the Myoin tribe spirits? Does it show the attributes of a spiritual being because it is a true blood?’
Raymond recalled his knowledge of the True Blood Tribe.
If the general beast races are similar humans with animal attributes, the true blood races are somewhat different.
He was born with the blood of spirits in the chaos that is the root of the clan, and possesses the attributes of spirits stronger than humans.
It has a human form, but is it half close to a spirit beast?
‘…Could it be that the great Amyo, the ancestor of the Myo-in tribe, was also someone’s pet? Is that why this kind of pairing is possible?’
Raymond cleared his throat.
Anyway, the pairing was rejected.
‘I can’t carelessly conclude something like this.’
Even from Mien’s point of view, it was not good to make such an important contract when her mind was going back and forth.
‘I’ll think differently when my body recovers and I wake up.’
[I decline the pairing!]
Raymond said softly so as not to hurt the boy.
“I am a teacher, not a mother.”
“…teacher?”
“Yes, a healer teacher who treats you and cares for you unconditionally.”
He spoke as softly as he could, but did he know that he had been rejected? Mien replied in a dejected voice.
“…Yes, teacher.”
“Yeah, not good. If you ever need anything, come see me.”
“…Can I really go see you?”
“Yes, anytime.”
Raymond answered without thinking.
Mien smiled and fell into a deep sleep.
Then a message popped up.
[The opponent who has been rejected for pairing falls into a ‘state of longing alone’!]
“….”
Raymond saw the message and fell silent.
‘…It’s an ominous message.’
Perhaps the little kid was moved by him and temporarily felt that way.
‘I’ll be fine soon.’
Raymond got up from his seat.
“I will stop. If you have any problems, please contact us right away. We will send the thyroid hormones Mien needs in person in the future.”
That’s how Raymond left the Myoin village.
* * *
I didn’t go down to the manor right away.
Headed to the Borison estate to collect evidence.
‘As expected. Disturbing substances are leaking from the magic stone mine.’
Starting from the magic stone mine, he investigated the water in the valley.
As a result, the upstream is clean.
A disturbing substance was identified from the point where the magic stone mine is located.
‘This is enough evidence.’
Raymond returned to the manor.
Afterwards, he formally requested a meeting with Count Trenby.
– Why am I with you?
“I am ordering it as a commissioner. If you do not comply with this, I will punish you on behalf of His Majesty the King.”
Raymond said coldly.
No matter how important his own gains are, he continued to mine magic stones regardless of what other territories did.
The words couldn’t come out well.
-….
The Earl of Trenby was compelled to meet, and Raymond, in an attempt to pressure him, accompanied all the lords who had come to follow him.
Thor estate.
Mephine Manor.
Crane estate.
Lanson estate.
These four lords followed him as if to assist him.
And that wasn’t all.
Raymond now had more influence than all four of them put together.
Currently, he was not only the de facto lord of the Ruin domain, but also possessed the authority of the Kunka and Boyle domains, which had lost their lords due to injustice.
In other words, Raymond was now the simultaneous lord of three territories. He was soon to become a feudal lord.
There was Elmud, the kingdom’s most genius knight, and Christine, the most likely successor to the kingdom’s most powerful duke.
“….”
The Earl of Trenby, on the other hand, was alone.
The Earl of Trenby gritted his teeth.
‘No one is coming.’
In fact, before he came out to this meeting, he asked other lords who supported him to accompany him.
But they all refused with excuses.
‘I’m not feeling well… ….’
‘There is an urgent matter in the manor… ….’
He made such an excuse, but the reason was clear.
Now he must have known that the general trend was towards Raymond.
There are a total of 10 major territories in the Lafalde region.
Seven of them came under Raymond’s influence, so in fact the entire Lafalde region came into Raymond’s hands.
‘The Earl of Trenby is over.’
‘I can’t connect more kites.’
Moreover, Raymond pointed to the magic crystal mine of Count Trenby as the cause of this mysterious disease.
Raymond is the best expert on infectious diseases in Houston Kingdom.
That’s what he said, I’m sure.
Now the Earl of Trenby was doomed.
Everyone knew that.
“….”
And the Earl of Trenby himself knew it.
I just couldn’t admit it.
That he, who had once dreamed of driving out Raymond and becoming a feudal lord of the Rafalde region, had come to this situation.
“What I am asking for is simple. Stop collecting magic crystals right away.”
Raymond said firmly.
“….”
Count Trenby clenched his fists.
Unfortunately, the evidence Raymond presented was incontrovertible.
In fact, Count Trenby himself had guessed that the magic crystal mine might be the cause.
‘The first territory where a patient with a mysterious disease occurred was not Ranson Manor, but Borison Manor, where the Magic Stone Mine was located. But the Earl of Trenby covered it up. I’m afraid it’ll be affected by gathering magic stones.’
Raymond clicked his tongue.
The first time Earl Trenby called Viscount Dorian, a double-A healer, was because of the patients who had occurred in his estate.
‘anyway. Not caring about people dying for their own greed.’
It was an ugly thing, but it was also a fairly common occurrence.
‘Even on modern Earth, this is not common. It’s not uncommon for a few pennies to pay no attention to toxic substances harming people.’
Raymond spoke strongly.
“This is your final warning. Follow my words and stop the magic stone mines.”
“…What if I don’t follow?”
“I will raise an army to subdue you.”
“…!”
The Earl of Trenby opened his eyes wide.
“…what? dare!”
A strong force emanated from his body.
Earl of Trenby is a brave warrior who made a great contribution on the battlefield! Raymond’s chest instantly shrank from that powerful force.
but.
[I’m stepping up for the patient!]
[The skill ‘Heart of Steel’ is manifested!]
Also, other than the skill, there was something that strengthened his chest.
“dare! Lord!”
“Sit down right now Count!”
“Don’t do anything you won’t regret!”
“You want to turn the Raeburn duchy into an enemy?”
Elmud and others came forward and put pressure on them instead!
Raymond, strong and weak, said while feeling his heart grow stronger.
“I am the commissioner and the future feudal lord of Lafalde. Therefore, we have the authority to subjugate those who harm the people of Lafalde.”
The Earl of Trenby shuddered.
But he didn’t respond a word. Because none of what Raymond said was wrong.
In the end, he had no choice but to give up everything and sit down.
“haha…I tried to build a family by winning the war, but it turned out like this.”
It was a frustrated voice.
It had to be.
The Borison Mansion was a place where there was absolutely nothing except for the magic stone mine.
Young Ji-min is only about 200 people.
It was a territory that was not even the size of a small manor.
At best, he had achieved success and received land, but he was left broke.
‘Moreover, while preparing to mine magic stones, he must have owed a lot to the magic tower. Only a pile of debt will remain.’
Raymond shook his head.
It sent chills down his spine at the thought that he could have ended up like the Earl of Trenby if he hadn’t done so.
‘…It seems a bit pitiful.’
The Earl of Trenby, of course, had done an unpardonable wrong.
Because he did not care about the deaths of others for his own gain. It was a mistake that could not be excused for any reason.
But is it because I almost end up in the same situation?
Seeing him frustrated with a blankly soulless expression made me feel a little pitiful.
‘I can’t help it. That’s not going to help.’
Help is nonsense.
It was the moment when I thought so and tried to turn my back.
Suddenly, an idea flashed into my mind.
‘for a moment. If we make good use of the Earl of Trenby’s situation, wouldn’t it be possible to make a huge profit?’
I didn’t mean to help the Earl of Trenby out of pity.
How can you help someone who has done something like that? No matter how personally sympathetic I was, it wasn’t.
‘I’d rather be punished.’
It’s the opposite of what he’s trying to do.
It was to make a big profit by using the frustrated Earl of Trenby.
‘And while punishing Count Trenby.’
Raymond continued his thoughts.
‘And this is a way not only to punish Count Trenby, but also to give a big blow to the Mage Tower guys. let’s do it.’
Raymond always has animosity towards the Mage Tower deep in his heart.
The worst money buggers along with the dwarves!
Moreover, it was impossible to say that the Mage Tower were not responsible for this situation.
If the problem had been found out in advance when the magic crystal collection facility was installed, it might have been possible to prevent a disaster from happening.
In other words, the magic tower abandoned its duties due to easy handling of work.
‘So the Mage Tower guys should also take responsibility for this situation.’
Determined, Raymond opened his mouth.
“I understand the Count’s situation. Then how about doing this?”
“What do you mean?”
Just then, a message popped up.
[As a Healer Lord, I’m trying to negotiate at the territory level!]
[The skill ‘Negotiation Skill’ is manifested!]
That’s not all.
[I confirm that the opponent is ‘the truth’!]
[The pattern of the opponent’s truth is ‘easy truth’. The ‘Truth Special Skill: Making Hugu’ is manifested!]
Raymond felt his tongue become smoother.
“As the prospective feudal lord of the Rafalde region, I will buy the Borison estate myself. How is it?”
“…!”
The Earl of Trenby’s eyes widened.
what does this all of a sudden mean?
“What is that…?”
“If the magic stone mine is closed, wouldn’t the Borison estate have no value? It means that as a prospective feudal lord, I will consider the count’s situation and purchase it.”
Of course it’s a lie.
what is caring
It was a deal that would make huge profits.
‘Is it some kind of scam?’
But the Earl of Trenby asked without even dreaming of such a fact.
“Then how long will you live?”
“Minus 100,000 pence. In other words, the Count, please give me 100,000 penas.”
