Doctor Player Chapter 397
“Keuk kuk You embarrass this Gideon until the end. All right. I accept Your Highness’ offer.”
“Is that true?”
Archduke Gideon nodded.
“Of course, don’t get me wrong. I still hate the Ristein family. but….”
Seeing Raymond shining until the end, Gideon felt that the life he had been insisting on so far was futile.
Exactly, it looked pointless.
plural…well.
Still hates the royal family, but devotes the rest of his life to revenge?
What does that mean?
The opponent is shining so brightly.
Gideon realized that the more he clung to the vengeance of the past, the more he would become ugly.
‘On the contrary.’
Grand Duke Gideon suddenly had this idea.
‘Following that light might be more fun.’
Archduke Gideon laughed at his own thoughts.
But it really was.
The enormousness of the light Raymond showed was hard to imagine even for Gideon.
great giant.
That was Raymond.
So following his light would be much more meaningful than wishing for vain revenge.
But he shook his head.
His pride made it impossible for him to bow to Raymond.
And he couldn’t completely give up his revenge.
so.
Gideon dreamed of another revenge.
‘I have to give that light a shot.’
feed one room
It means achieving achievements comparable to those of Raymond in the Peninsula Kingdom.
‘Of course it won’t be easy.’
Gideon held out his hand to Raymond.
“I will not lose.”
“yes?”
“It means that I will surpass Your Highness in the future.”
If it goes beyond Raymond like that.
It will be a meaningful enough revenge.
Raymond made an awkward face when he saw Gideon burning up his fighting spirit in another sense.
I don’t know exactly what Gideon was thinking, but one thing was certain.
Raymond took Gideon’s hand.
“welcome.”
Finally, Gideon became Raymond’s hukou candidate.
* * *
After turning Gideon into a hukou sprout, Raymond took care of other things.
Once officially announced his plans.
“You mean you’re going to elect the throne?”
“majesty?”
Peian VII, of course, everyone was surprised.
But at the same time, there were reactions that said it could be, and everyone thought this way.
‘Who else would be worthy of the throne if not His Highness Raymond?’
‘Even the Peninsula Kingdom is not enough to embrace the light of His Highness Raymond.’
Because Raymond’s light is so brilliant, it is only right that such a brilliant light shines on the entire empire, not just one place.
He thought it natural for him to become emperor.
But not everyone was like that.
Of course, there were those who reacted as if the sky had fallen.
One of them was Rashid!
“Your Highness! uh how… …I only hoped for Your Highness’s light!”
He had tears on his handsome face.
He was greatly shocked by the story of Raymond leaving for the ecliptic.
‘This nasty bastard.’
Raymond glanced at Rashid.
Come to think of it, that guy Rashid was the culprit behind all the hardships Raymond had in the Peninsula Kingdom.
Rashid I fell for that bastard’s trick and went through all these hardships.
Of course, Raymond was to blame for falling for the temptation to make money, but anyway, Raymond hated Rashid the most in the world.
So said.
“If Your Highness goes, how will we… …?”
“You have to.”
By the way, Raymond has talked to Rashid.
…It was silly so I just let it go.
“yes?”
“You, Crown Prince, do it.”
Rashid was dumbfounded.
“yes? yes?”
Raymond twisted the corner of his mouth.
Seeing Rashid’s dazed face made me very happy.
‘You’ve made me suffer all this time. Now you do it!’
“There is no one to be crown prince. only you.”
“What about Princess Cysylvene?”
“He ran away.”
Originally, Raymond intended to entrust the throne to Princess Sylvene.
But what?
Did he intuit the troublesome fate that would befall him?
Princess Sylvene had left a letter like this beforehand and disappeared.
[I’ll find myself and come back. long time. Don’t look for it.]
Upon seeing the letter, Raymond was silent.
‘From the beginning, Princess Sylvene was a fake saint.’
From the first time he met Princess Sylvene, she said.
It’s a pretense to be for the people, and he wants to play.
So, when it seemed that the situation had stabilized, he quickly ran away.
‘But I can’t hand over the throne to Grand Duke Gideon.’
Grand Duke Gideon still controls the foremost force in the Peninsula Kingdom.
No, now that the forces following Raymond have grown, it would be more accurate to say that they are close to each other.
In any case, when someone with such a strong power ascends the throne, the balance of power is disrupted.
Then you don’t know how Grand Duke Gideon will turn out.
‘Because I still can’t trust Archduke Gideon. I have to keep it in check.’
Even though he had been somewhat benevolent the last time they met, Raymond still didn’t trust Gideon.
Therefore, the political situation in the future will have to be in the direction of Gideon’s side and the new king, balancing power, checking and cooperating with each other, and prospering the kingdom.
‘That’ll make it easier for me to make money.’
The problem is that, with the exception of Sylvene Gideon, there is no one worthy of the next throne.
Rashid was the only one left.
“Ha but how could I?!”
Rashid jumped up.
It was a face he couldn’t bear.
It was a natural reaction since he had never imagined himself ascending the throne.
But Raymond thought that Rashid would do surprisingly well.
‘He’s a nasty guy, but his heart for the people is deep.’
Rashid had one reason for fishing Raymond.
For the people of the Peninsula Kingdom.
In other words, he had a heart for the people.
It was a quality that was more important than any other quality as a king.
‘The ability to handle multiple jobs is also excellent.’
The other day, Rashid had come as the commander of the reinforcements during the war between the Drowton Kingdom and the Houston Kingdom.
As can be seen from that fact, Rashid was a promising talent in the royal faction.
In other words, the heart for the people. There are also outstanding abilities.
Rashid was the most suitable candidate!
Of course, I didn’t force myself to think like that because I wanted to hand it over to anyone. Not really.
“Uh, how can I….”
However, when Rashid hesitated, Raymond came up with a way.
Now that Raymond had gone through all the hardships of childbirth, it was no task to turn an innocent man like Rashid into a hukou slave.
“Who are you Rashid?”
“I…As the royal family of the Peninsula royal family… ….”
“No, no.”
Raymond grabbed Rashid by the shoulder.
And he spoke very seriously.
“You are the younger brother I believe in. Got it?”
“…!”
Rashid’s eyes widened.
“I am…Your Highness’s trusted brother… …What do you mean?”
Raymond thought for a moment.
‘But isn’t Rashid older than me?’
I guess it doesn’t matter
Huston Kingdom’s step-brother Rao was also older than Raymond. So, between older brothers and younger sisters, age was not very important.
“Yes, you are the younger brother I trust the most in the Peninsula Kingdom.”
seemed
Rashid’s eyes filled with emotion.
It was a scene where a nasty guy turns into a hogu slave.
Raymond nailed it.
“I intend to entrust you with the position of crown prince with the heart of trusting you. But if you don’t have confidence like that, then this older brother is sad.”
“…!”
“If you respect me as an older brother, can you trust my choice for believing in you and work for the Peninsula Kingdom? You can do it.”
When I said that, Rashid couldn’t refuse any more.
I was deeply moved and bowed my head to Raymond.
“All right. I will do my best, brother!”
However, Rashid placed a condition.
“It’s not enough for me to take on the heavy responsibility alone. So, even after ascending the throne, can’t you continue to shine light on the Peninsula Kingdom?”
Raymond pondered, then nodded.
‘Are you coming to the Peninsula Kingdom often to earn money anyway?’
He had no intention of becoming a real emperor.
It was just a disguise to abdicate the throne.
After being eliminated from the election for the throne, he will travel around various places to collect money.
‘In the Ecliptic, in the Peninsula Kingdom, in the Free City Alliance… …And Catal Kingdom Houston Kingdom and so on. I have to go all over the place to sweep the money.’
Among them, the ecliptic and peninsula kingdoms were particularly important markets.
So, since the Peninsula Kingdom would come often, it was not unreasonable to accept Rashid’s request.
And intervening in the affairs of the Peninsula Kingdom would also satisfy Raymond’s personal greed.
First of all, Jungkook had to be in peace to be able to earn money stably, and
‘after all, the best business is a business with power on its back. I’m going to get my hands on the power and make a lot of money.’
It was visible in Raymond’s eyes.
The image of oneself becoming a super-rich.
Just imagining it made me feel good, he said boldly.
“okay. trust me. I will be behind you, Rashid!”
“iced coffee. Thanks brother!”
Rashid was moved and lowered his head.
* * *
So Rashid became the post-Raymond.
However, pushing Rashid as the crown prince caused Raymond an unexpected side effect.
“I, Rashid, only follow my brother’s light!”
“Brother’s light all over the Peninsula Kingdom!”
Rashid put forward the slogan that he thoroughly followed Raymond’s light!
In a way, it was a wise choice, and thanks to this, Rashid was able to accept Raymond’s power and support as his own without any resistance.
However, there was one problem with Rashid’s behavior,
‘… …If I do this, it’s like I’ve become a higher-ranking king!’
Raymond wept.
Sangwang.
It was not actually an official position.
However, such a name was used in special cases… …The former king has real power in place of the still young king, or the king is too young to rule, or the queen and others step in due to the king’s health problems.
If there was a member of the royal family who had substantially higher authority than the king, he would be referred to as Sangwang, meaning that he was a real king higher than the king.
‘No, I don’t want that!’
Raymond frowned.
Again, Rashid showed the attitude that he thoroughly followed Raymond.
So people came to assume that Raymond was above Rashid!
Rashid is the ‘representative’ that Raymond, who left for the ecliptic, left behind in the Peninsula Kingdom.
In other words, the Peninsula Kingdom became a system with Rashid and Gideon under the true King Raymond.
‘…This is not what I intended. I’m just super rich… ….’
