Doctor Player Chapter 217
“Take it away.”
“Sophia, my beloved sister.”
“I’ll warn you, get rid of it.”
“I will give you a chance. If you kneel before me, I will save you. I’ll put you in the second person’s seat.”
Sophia sighed softly.
Damn!
And slapped Cairn’s cheek.
“…!”
“I told you to clean up your dirty hands.”
Cairn was blank for a moment.
His cheeks turned red from the severe beating.
He soon broke out into a big laugh.
“Okay, I’m sorry for my mistake. I know what you mean. Just go back.”
Sophia frowned and turned away.
Then, a low voice pierced my back.
“Hope for a miracle. Otherwise you will die.”
Sophia didn’t answer and came out in silence.
“Are you okay, Your Highness?!”
“I want to go back to your palace.”
“I will see you.”
Sophia sighed softly.
I’m fighting against it, but in fact, there was no clear way. At this rate, Cairn will ascend the throne.
As Cairn said, even if a miracle doesn’t happen.
‘miracle.’
Sophia clenched her fists.
She looked south.
There was only one person who could work a miracle in this situation.
There was only Raymond.
* * *
Late night.
Raymond was still looking down at the bottom of the castle from the top of the lord’s castle.
I couldn’t sleep.
‘Is it because of the indefatigable monster attribute obtained while promoting to Fellow? I’m not tired even if I don’t sleep.’
Raymond sighed.
‘I have to make a decision.’
I couldn’t make a decision at all.
Then a rustle of people was heard.
Seeing the person who came up, Raymond made a surprised face.
“Disciple?”
It was Christine!
“master? Were you here? What a coincidence.”
She looked awkwardly surprised, as if they had met by chance.
“What did you come here for?”
“I just want to get some fresh air because I can’t sleep. Master, would you like a drink too?”
She held out the bottle.
Raymond looked at the bottle and made a surprised face.
It was his favorite ‘expensive’ wine!
Over a thousand pennies per bottle!
‘This is one of my bucket list wines.’
Shy Raymond looked at the wine bottle, nervous about dropping it.
“however…How much does this wine cost?”
“expensive. Two thousand pennies a bottle?”
“Two two thousand pennies?”
“When I went to my parents’ house, I stole several bottles. Did you do well?”
“Yes, very good. As expected, he is a proud disciple.”
Also Christine!
He treats patients well, saves money well, and steals expensive wine.
He was the perfect disciple.
“Here, Master, please eat with us.”
Raymond laughed.
He said it was a coincidence, and he was holding two glasses.
“thank you.”
It was an expensive wine, so passing it down the throat was an art.
She even brought cube steak for snacks.
“How about this steak?”
“This is the steak I asked for from Sir Hanson.”
Also Hanson.
Cube steak was also an art.
Eating expensive wine and Hanson’s steak made me feel a little healed.
‘Ah, I want to live by buying and drinking wine like this every day without any worries.’
Raymond had no idea.
‘Of course, you can still buy and eat it, but. It’s a pile of debt anyway.’
There were some good things about having a lot of debt.
Even if I overconsumed, it didn’t show much!
While comforting his debtor situation, Raymond became even more depressed.
‘no. The talk with the Marquis of Tern went well, so once the canal is open and the medical business is in place, the debt will be paid off soon. Let’s wait until then.’
As I was thinking about that, Christine suddenly caught my eye.
She was drinking wine in silence, looking down at the castle.
Raymond realized that thanks to her, much of his complicated mind had gone.
“thank you.”
“yes?”
“Did you come to comfort me?”
“no? Are you just here for a drink? It’s expensive, so it’s delicious, right?”
Christine gave a single laugh. The clear moonlight hit her jet-black hair and scattered it.
She looked down at the castle again. It’s like you don’t mind.
Her consideration gently soaked Raymond’s heart.
Because sometimes just being with you is more helpful than a thousand words.
Raymond was grateful to her.
after a while of silence.
Raymond hesitantly opened his mouth.
“Could it be, disciple?”
“…yes?”
“What would you do if you were in a situation where you had to heal the most hated enemy you really hated?”
“…!”
Christine was taken aback for a moment.
He understood the meaning of Raymond’s question.
But he said it in a calm voice.
“I think I will treat you.”
“Is that the attitude of a healer?”
Raymond remembered that she had been praised as a little saint before.
She is more than Raymond in caring for patients!
If she was like that, of course she would try to heal even her enemies.
However, Christine gave an unexpected answer.
“It would be too bland to let them die.”
“yes?”
“I have to live and pay the grudge properly. If you die without making proper atonement, who dies at will?”
“….”
“After saving him, he has to take revenge to the point where he regrets being saved. Oh, and if there’s anything that can be ripped off, I tear it off.”
Raymond kept his mouth shut.
something terrifying. It was her answer.
‘Well, come to think of it, he was a disciple with a scary side.’
After that, silence fell again.
Raymond thought, and Christine got up to help him gather his thoughts.
“I’ll just go down and see. master.”
Christine blurted out before disappearing down the stairs.
“Can I just tell you one thing? Master, make the choice that will leave you with the least regrets.”
“…!”
“No matter what you choose, I, Kristen de Raeburn, will support you, Master.”
She mentioned her full name.
It meant that even if a bad situation arose due to Raymond’s choice, he would mobilize the power of the Raeburn duchy to help him.
‘Of course, my father still supports Highness Cairn.’
Although she is establishing herself as the successor, the owner of the duchy is still the Duke of Raeburn. And the Duke of Raeburn supported Cairn.
But Christine made up her mind.
If the worst were to happen, Raymond would become a source of strength even if he grabbed his father, the Duke of Raeburn, by the collar.
“…thank you.”
“you’re welcome.”
Christine waved her hand and disappeared with her back turned, as if to say not to mind.
Raymond sighed and gulped down the remaining wine in his glass.
“plural…la.”
A thought popped into my mind.
“Originally I was a snob…You can be a bad healer.”
* * *
The next day.
Raymond met Galman.
“I will treat you.”
“…!”
Chancellor Galman’s eyes widened.
“Thank you so much! I know it must have been a difficult decision. I understand your heart… …!”
However, Raymond drew a line coldly.
“Don’t get me wrong. Because this is a deal.”
“transaction?”
“Yes, I am the feudal lord in charge of the Lafalde region. I will not treat you unless you promise me a solid price.”
Raymond thought to himself.
‘I have to repay the grudge properly by saving my life.’
That’s what Christine said yesterday.
‘Yes, I will use this opportunity to give His Highness a huge blow.’
Raymond was deeply troubled last night.
What choice do you really have to make?
After much thought, he came to a conclusion.
It’s a matter too serious to ignore with mere hatred.
‘If Cairn ascends the throne like this, you don’t know what kind of aftershock will come. It would be foolish to ignore it out of hatred.’
And there was something even more important.
‘Your brother is right. If the king dies like this, I won’t be able to take any revenge, and I will lose the person I hate the most in vain.’
If you do something wrong and die, who will die at will?
A short apology that was left behind at the end?
It wasn’t even worth it.
With just that, he couldn’t solve the resentment he had accumulated so far.
‘I don’t know exactly what kind of revenge I’ll have yet.’
Still, one thing was clear.
‘I’ll be able to rip off a huge reward.’
Raymond decided to become a ‘bad healer’.
A bad healer who would steal money regardless of the circumstances of the patient.
‘I’ll shake you off enough to make the sound of a robbery. I’ll make you a penniless king.’
Raymond promised.
I will make King Oden the best hukou of his ‘Hukou Rip Project’.
Just then, a pleasant quest came to mind.
[Take the reward from the worst truth!]
(Ninjutsu Quest)
Good deeds: None.
Difficulty: Har
Quest Description: The worst truth that has hurt you is seeking healing! Even in the truth, a patient is a patient. Become a bad healer instead and rip your rewards! Make me repent of the wrongs I’ve done to you!
Clear condition: Reward ripping
Reward: Depending on the ripping reward Privilege
: Exhilarating feeling
Before that, Raymond pointed out the most important problem.
“First of all, I have to promise you one thing. Please do not hold me accountable for the results of treatment.”
It was an important issue.
If he couldn’t be cured with an S-class heal, he would be in a very serious condition. Raymond couldn’t even promise treatment.
“That’s right….”
“Your Excellency, please swear by everything.”
Chancellor Galman understood what Raymond meant.
Even if Cairn tries to do tricks, he wants them to use all his political capabilities to stop them.
“I swear on my all. I will not hold you accountable.”
Galman nodded heavily.
“But at what price? What kind of reward can I give you?”
“First, please pay four million penas for treatment.”
“…!”
Chancellor Galman’s eyes widened.
It was a huge medical bill!
No healer in the world would pay this much for treatment.
“that…!”
“If you don’t like it, there is no treatment.”
firm voice.
Realizing that Raymond was serious, Galman swallowed.
“Four million pennies….”
“Ah, please refrain from raising taxes. Still, I think I can come up with something. Even if it means selling all the royal treasures.”
Raymond recalled the venerable artworks and treasures he had seen in the royal castle as a child.
As a kingdom with a long history, the treasure accumulated over many years was not small.
If you dispose of all that treasure, you’ll be able to raise 4 million pennies.
‘Aren’t you going to miss it? If it’s not enough, I’ll sell the king’s armor and sword to get it on my own. You can melt down the crown jewels and sell them. Can I change it to a simple crown at this point? Anyway, I need to get at least 4 million pennies.’
There were many things to receive besides money.
