#Doctor Player #265
‘In order to do that, the curse must be completely resolved. So that people completely fall for me.’
Raymond promised.
* * *
Linden was released as a colleague to help with treatment.
Elmud Christine Rune Ren was not released for being dangerous.
He had no choice but to solve the curse only with the help of Linden Jude.
Jude bit his lip and looked at Raymond.
‘Master.’
She was in a state of shock when she had just witnessed all of Raymond’s appearance at the stake.
‘Even when you’re in danger of dying, you only think of other people. Are you saying Master is really not human?’
Raymond’s heart seemed to have been castrated from all greed, and only altruism for others remained.
‘I’m sure he’s still thinking about how to care for the patient.’
Jude held his breath as he looked at Raymond’s serious face.
The more I watched from the side, the greater the greatness of Raymond felt.
And that ‘great’ Raymond said to himself now,
‘I’ll only do things that make money once this job is over!’
was shouting out loud.
‘I just want to enjoy a movie of wealth! But to go through this! I won’t do anything like this again once I get the Dragon Heart.’
Of course, from the outside, it only seemed to make a promise for the patient.
Jude was moved again and resolutely resolved.
‘I’ll struggle like Sir Hanson! I’m going to desperately follow him no matter what!’
Even if she resembles only a speck of greatness, she will be able to become a great king who will go down in history.
So when Raymond asked, he answered resolutely.
“excuse me…The Crown Princess. I’m sorry, but it might be a little bit difficult. Are you okay?”
“Leave me anything!”
Jude shouted again with strong will.
“Please let me help Master with anything!”
Linden, on the other hand, was terrified of gibberish.
“Oh no. We can run away at this opportunity… …! No, it’s not that we want to leave the rest of us alone, that’s it!”
“…Let’s go see the cursed patient.”
Raymond dragged Linden to see the cursed patients.
Cursed patients were gathered in a building on the outskirts of Sarrance Castle.
I stood in front of the building wearing the protective clothing I had brought beforehand.
‘I said it’s a place where patients cursed with death gather.’
There were three kinds of curses that the Black Darkness placed on Loktar.
Curse of Madness!
Curse of Death!
Curse of Grief!
The most urgent of these was, by far, the curse of death.
Just like the name of the curse called ‘death’, countless people were dying in real time.
‘In a few months, as many as 4,000 people died.’
It was an unimaginably staggering number.
The population of the Loktar region was about 20,000, so more than 20 percent died.
‘This curse must be resolved as quickly as possible first.’
Resolutely, I opened the door.
and witnessed
A terrible sight of hell.
“Turn it off.”
“Huh. Save me!”
“haha. gagging.”
Many people were moaning in pain.
Dead and rotting bodies everywhere. Other people dying beside him.
Heaps of vomit and excrement.
It was a gruesome and horrific scene.
‘Oops.’
Jude tried to vomit, but barely held back.
Neither Raymond nor even Linden, who had been sternly acting, were not averting their eyes.
Both were examining the patients with hard faces.
“Check the vitals and basic information of Linden patients.”
“Yes Master!”
For reference, Linden referred to Raymond as his master when seeing patients.
Linden quickly ran around and checked the condition of the patients.
In the meantime, Raymond silently examined the symptoms of the patients one by one.
Soon Linden returned and said:
“Most are in severe shock. Most of them are dehydrated with severe hypotension and tachycardia.”
At that, Raymond nodded.
‘As expected.’
Jude asked.
“Did you find out something?”
“This is not a shamanic curse.”
“yes?”
Jude’s eyes widened.
Raymond turned his head to examine the patients.
If this was a curse that works on the soul with witchcraft, the condition of the patients would have been somewhat different from now.
But shock dehydration. and severe diarrhea and vomiting complained of by most of the patients.
Above all, the cause of death of patients.
Raymond looked at the withered bodies.
‘All of the dead patients died from severe diarrhea, dehydration and acid-base electrolyte imbalance.’
These facts indicated that the patients were suffering from some definite disease, not a shamanic curse.
“This is an epidemic. It is presumed to be cholera.”
“…!”
cholera!
It was a terrible plague contracted by ingesting contaminated water.
‘It’s an infectious disease that boasts a tremendous fatality rate if not treated.’
The mortality rate was over 50%.
It is a terrible epidemic that kills tens of thousands of units every time it is prevalent on Earth.
Judging from the conditions complained of by the patients, it was most likely that this cholera was the curse of death spreading in Loktar.
‘I thought the curse of death would be some kind of contagious disease.’
Because it’s impossible to kill so many people with a simple curse.
‘It’s clear that the drinking water source was contaminated for some reason left behind by the black darkness, and cholera broke out.’
Knowing the cause, the solution was simple.
“Please stop drinking the water from Lake Medellin.”
“what?”
Stang twitched his eyebrows.
Medellin Lake is a lake located in the upper reaches of the Loktar region, and most of the people in the Loktar region used the water of the tributaries originating from the Medellin Lake as drinking water.
‘Looking at the distribution of the curse of death, it is highly likely that Lake Medellin is the source of cholera.’
Stang, on the other hand, smiled.
‘Good. Digging his own grave.’
water is the cause
As an ordinary layman in Ley Pentaina, I thought it was nonsense.
Stang was a black limb, but he had no idea what the curse of death was. He thought it was just an authority manifested by the black darkness.
‘I’ll just follow his words and offer it as a sacrifice soon. There’s no way the patients will get better just by cutting off the lake’s water.’
“i get it. Let the water take rainwater and drink it.”
That’s how I blocked the most important cause.
After parting with Stang, Linden grumbled.
“That bastard’s attitude toward His Highness. Your Highness is so nice to people, so he’s patient.”
‘No, I’m just holding back because I’m scared.’
Raymond cleared his throat.
I was scared because he had a knife aimed at his throat.
‘Now I’m going to have to steal the knife he’s holding.’
Raymond narrowed his eyes.
If the curse of death is resolved, will Stang retreat?
never.
At that time, he will try to kill him and Jude again for any excuse.
‘I have to make everyone on my side in preparation for that time.’
Steng is scary because everyone in Sarrance Castle is following his words.
So, if only people were on his side, there was nothing to fear from Stang.
The method was simple.
I just had to treat the patient as I always did.
“Linden sap there!”
“Give the patient epinephrine!”
Fortunately, there was no shortage of supplies needed for treatment.
It was because they had already loaded it with wagons.
Thanks to this, patients soon began to show improvement.
‘Because with proper treatment, the mortality rate of cholera is reduced to less than 1%.’
Those who got better had dumbfounded faces.
“Are you liking me?”
“What happened? You must have been cursed with death left behind by the black darkness, right?”
Raymond sensed that the time had come.
“Your curse has been lifted by me.”
“…!”
People looked at Raymond in amazement.
He had a characteristic holy expression.
He did not stop at that, but he refined his voice to make a remark that was as touching as possible.
The upgraded ‘Eonbyeon’ shone.
[Your speech strongly reflects your heart for the patient!]
“Don’t worry anymore. I will take care of everything until you recover.”
“…!”
People’s eyes shook.
“Who are you all?”
Raymond answered in a short but deep voice.
“I am a healer who wants to heal you.”
That’s how Raymond did his best for all of his patients.
Originally, Raymond was kind, but this time he put more effort into it.
‘I have to make everyone on my side!’
Treatment is basic as if I did my best like my own family!
During each treatment, he held each patient’s hand and comforted them.
“Are you in a lot of pain?”
“Cheer up a little. It will get better soon.”
“I will pray for you.”
Warm eyes and sincere hands. Even the consolation that touches the heart.
Those who received Raymond’s treatment were moved.
“A person like this exists in the world.”
“He is a saint. Since you are the saint, the curse is gone.”
“I will never forget today’s grace.”
At their reaction, Raymond laughed inwardly.
Everything was as he intended.
However, there was one more unexpected help.
It was Jude.
‘I’m not going to stay still. I will imitate Master!’
With this kind of heart, I took care of the patients with all my heart and soul!
‘Master is working hard like that too. I have to do my best for patients many times over.’
Of course, there wasn’t much she could do.
No matter how genius you are, learning is too short.
Of course, difficult medical treatment was unreasonable, and I had no choice but to take care of patients’ hygiene management and patient care.
hygiene management.
It’s good to say it’s hygienic, so I was in charge of wiping the filth from the patients’ bodies and disposing of excrement.
‘Can I really do it?’
Raymond was worried, but Jude didn’t budge.
‘These are my people. You have to treat them like family. Just like Master does.’
She peeped at Raymond’s treatment of patients.
Truly a crystal of warmth!
She clearly engraved that image in her head and tried to imitate the patient exactly as it was.
It was natural that people were moved by her appearance.
‘I heard she’s an ugly and selfish crown princess.’
‘I can’t believe he was such a wonderful person.’
Thanks to this, the recruitment of patients progressed quickly.
Eventually, when all the patients ardently believed in Raymond and Jude, and the people of Sarrance Castle completely opened their hearts to Raymond.
The situation was reversed.
Raymond succeeded in freeing the party with the help of the patients, and after that it was a breeze.
“What are you doing!”
Stang knelt down and was brought before Raymond.
It wasn’t just Stang. Unidentified knight-level fighters who led the vigilantes also knelt together.
“Pay your respects to your lord!”
Unlike usual, Elmude was very angry and shouted.
So did Kristin Runen.
Stan gulped and called for help from those around him.
“What are you doing! Hit them!”
However, the people of Sarrance Castle did not budge.
It’s already gone solid.
‘To kill a saint like that. It’s ridiculous.’
