Doctor Player Chapter 74
Raymond cleared his throat.
I couldn’t tell if it was true or not.
‘Mmm. Could it be that this is the reason why I have been generous with loans?’
But Raymond shook his head.
I don’t think so.
It was a feeling.
His senses were very sharp, as he had been bullied all his life for 23 years.
“Anyway, the baronet’s dream. I want to cheer you up. Also, if you need money, you can always contact me. I’ll lend it to you at a special low rate.”
Lady Rose took a last look at the treatment center.
The gaze said, ‘Good job. I’ll see what you do in the future’, so I got goosebumps.
“Then I’ll see you again. VIP customers.”
* * *
As she came out, the butler who was accompanying her spoke silently.
“How are you?”
“What do you think?”
“If you ask for my opinion, I will be eliminated.”
The butler’s gray eyes narrowed sharply.
“The mind that thinks of the patient is admirable, but it is a dreamer. It is less feasible.”
“You think so?”
“Dreamers with only good faith are bound to perish.”
Foolishly good dreamer.
It was the Raymond the butler judged.
He was nice and respectful.
It was to the point where I wondered if there was such a person in the world these days.
But that’s it.
Butler Carls said calmly.
“He is not the person we are looking for. It will surely fall at some point. It is better to get your investment back.”
“Do you really think so?”
“miss?”
Lady Rose took out a lollipop and munched on it.
“Upgrade Raymond’s VIP customer level to ‘Red’.”
“…!”
The butler, Carls, had a startled look in his eyes.
Red Grade!
Among the VIP customers they give, it was a fairly high level.
“If you ask for an additional loan, I will give you a special low interest rate.”
“Why?”
“He’s not just a dreamer.”
“Did you see it with your demonic eyes?”
Magic Eye!
Her hidden ability to see through the essence of her opponent.
Rose’s odd eye shone.
“Yes, from my demonic eyes, he is not a foolish dreamer. Rather, he is a man with great ambition.”
Rose saw through Raymond’s heart with her magical eyes.
Contrary to the reputation of an angel who came down from the sky, his ambition was astounding!
“…What is your ambition?”
“I don’t know. Mystic Eye can be read vaguely, but it is not perfect mind reading. Just guessing from the way he looked.”
Rose paused for a moment.
To be honest, I wasn’t sure about this part.
What is he really aiming for?
She guessed with her genius head.
“…Perhaps it is an ambition for the sake of the patient. The look in his eyes that I just saw was only looking at the patient.”
Rose made that decision, never imagining that someone like Raymond would only want money.
‘We will raise it as the best treatment center on the continent.’
‘It’s for the sake of the patient.’
The way Raymond said that was full of sincerity for the patient!
‘Such absurd ambition.’
Rose laughed.
A laugh came out.
But he seemed really sincere.
He has an ambition for the patient in his heart.
‘The evaluation that he was an idiot who only thought of patients was true.’
No, it was not right to say that he was an idiot.
Because someone with such great ambitions couldn’t be a fool.
he was a fighter
A fighter with a sword for the sick.
“Judged by the Mystic Eye, the amount of ambition he harbored was staggering. Quite a few of them can’t even compare. He is not an innocent dreamer.”
Rose concluded.
“Rather, he is more like a revolutionary. To transform an entire continent for patients. So it’s worth keeping an eye on.”
“…Most likely a failed revolutionary. Isn’t the dream too absurd?”
To be the best treatment center on the continent!
Carls heard Raymond’s words as saying that he would care for the patients of all continents.
It was an absurd ambition.
“Of course it might. No, it’s much more likely.”
“then?”
“After all, the person we need is not just that kind of person. We need someone as outrageous as Raymond.”
Rose looked to the northeast.
far away
where she should be.
“Duke Karls or Karlstein.”
Karlstein Ball.
The moment he heard that name, Carl’s prayers changed completely.
It was a tremendous momentum.
At least the highest level of Sword Expert seems to be enough.
Considering that there are less than 5 sword experts or higher in the entire Houston kingdom, this is an incredible achievement!
To think that a knight of such great heights was acting as a nameless escort?
“do not forget. Why were we banished to the countryside like this? Don’t forget where we belong.”
“…I’m not forgetting My Road.”
Oh Deuk.
Rose bit off the candy.
She turned to the Pennin Treatment Center.
The ‘ambition’ that shook Raymond’s heart as he saw it through his demonic eyes came to mind again.
‘It’s for the sake of the patient.’
The absurd ambition made me laugh again.
“Again, lend money as low as you can whenever you need it. So that he can do a lot.”
“I did, but what if Raymond collapses?”
“then?”
Odd Deuk.
Rose took a last bite of the remaining candy in her mouth and replied as if it were natural.
“Then you have to throw it away.”
* * *
‘I have to pay my debt right now!’
Raymond was determined.
Fortunately, the interview went smoothly (?), but the feeling was not good.
‘It was like meeting a snake.’
When I recalled that time, I got goosebumps.
It looked like it would be eaten.
‘money! I have to make money!’
The problem is that there is no corner to lose money.
I wonder if the nobles suddenly flocked to the beggars.
‘Now the loan amount is close to 70,000 pence. big. When did I owe you so much?’
When I first opened the clinic, the debt was about 10,000 pence.
Then, by spreading it to the poor and poor commoners, the debt increased a lot, and the casino building was renovated, and the debt increased again.
In addition, the amount of money spent on commissioning the Dwarf Magic Tower to implement various medical tools was enormous.
‘These bad days, robber dwarves. It’s the same that the magic tower guys are also robbers. Why are herbs so expensive?’
In this world, healing was the priority, so there was little demand for herbs.
Then, aren’t herbs cheap?
you’re welcome. It was the opposite.
It was difficult to find the herbs you wanted because the distribution of herbs was low.
Based on his well-informed herbal knowledge, Raymond searched for herbs that had similar effects to modern medicines, extracted the ingredients, and used them.
In particular, obtaining herbs that are not in Houston Kingdom is picking up stars in the sky! The price was also very expensive.
‘Damn it, I’ll have to run a herbalist trade group someday.’
Anyway, the priority was to pay off the debt I owed on the healer loan first.
‘Is there any way to get rich quickly? debt can be paid off at once. Even an illegal casino?’
It was the car I was worried about.
A rumor came.
“It is said that ancient ruins have been found in the Master Gir Mountains.”
“Ancient ruins?”
“Your adventurer party went in several times, but all failed, so now the Kingdom Knights are coming out. An official notice has arrived asking for a therapist to join us.”
Raymond put on a look of disinterest.
‘It’s an ancient ruin. ugh It’s scary just thinking about it. You’ll get hurt if you go in there. Safety is the best.’
Raymond puts safety first.
Shouldn’t you enjoy wealth and honor by being considerate of yourself?
“Go and throw that notice away. I am also busy looking after our patients.”
Of course it’s an excuse.
The real reason is because it’s scary.
“Yes, I will.”
Hanson and Linden made admiring faces.
“As expected, the master thinks only of the patient without any material desires. If you participate in the ancient ruins, maybe you can get a big treasure.”
“As expected, Master!”
At those words, Raymond suddenly changed his attitude.
‘Come to think of it, there are treasures in ancient ruins! Maybe I can pick up some beans and eat them!’
Raymond swallowed.
Ancient Ruins!
There may be some hidden treasure.
If you do well, you can get out of debt at once by making a fortune.
‘…It’s scary though. What should I do if I do something wrong and die?’
This was the reason why there were not many therapists who applied even though it was an opportunity to make a fortune.
Ancient ruins were dangerous.
Exploration failure meant death.
‘no. Since you said you’re coming from the Kingdom Knights level, it won’t be too dangerous. I have to seize this opportunity!’
Resolutely determined, Raymond put on a solemn expression.
“No Hanson. On second thought, I might as well join.”
“master?”
“The reason I want to participate is….”
There was no need to elaborate.
Before he could even hear the explanation, Hanson nodded as if he understood.
“Master is worried not only about the patient in front of him, but also about those who will participate in the exploration. Ancient ruins are dangerous places. I don’t know what kind of bad patients will happen, so there won’t be a single victim.”
“As expected, Master.”
“Look, Linden. Concern for potential patients. That is the heart we should imitate.”
“Yes, I will keep that in mind!”
Looking at the two idiots talking excitedly, Raymond shut his mouth.
I figured it out on my own, so it was nice that I didn’t have to explain it in a messy way.
On the other hand, Rao, who saw that,
‘… …Ruins exploration? You’re not participating for money, are you? Why do you keep looking like that?’
I doubted it for a long time, but it’s not important, so let’s move on.
* * *
“What, that ‘bug’ decided to participate in the exploration of the ruins?”
There was a person who frowned upon hearing the news of Raymond’s participation in the ruins exploration.
Mason.
He was a royal therapist!
As the royal knights, the Royal Knights, proceeded to explore the ruins, Mason, who belonged to the royal family, also followed.
‘To think I had to go with such a lowly bug.’
It was a face of genuine contempt.
It had to be.
Mason is an A-class high-level healer!
Because to him, Raymond, who uses pseudo-mischief, was no better than a bug.
“I guess I’ll have to work as a porter. I cannot allow such a worm to interfere with my sacred duty.”
Mason was a lofty therapist who was proud of his abilities.
A blessing from heaven!
I found it rewarding to heal people with that healing.
The exploration of the ruins this time will also do its duty perfectly so that no deaths occur.
It was unacceptable for a petty bug to tarnish his noble duty.
* * *
On the other hand, there were people who were talking about the exploration of the ruins in unexpected places.
a very distant place.
It was the capital of the Droton Kingdom.
In a splendid mansion comparable to a royal palace, a handsome man lazily opened his mouth to a crystal ball.
About mid to late 30’s?
Although he looked relatively young, the atmosphere inside him was as sharp as a blade.
“So, the royal knights went on an exploration of the ruins? Everything is according to our plan.”
-Yes, no healer will be able to overcome that monster’s curse.
