Episode 163 King of the Undead (4)
Ray sighed.
I can’t tell if this is dissecting or butchering a pig.
Even though he was told not to damage the organs, pork organs are taken a backseat to the atmosphere.
If it had been a human rather than a pig lying there, it wouldn’t have taken too long for him to lose his life.
Even though the lich was under the hold spell, he moved his snout.
“It sucks.”
The lich’s huge amount of mana didn’t have much difficulty in moving the muzzle even though it was held.
He pecked at the students whenever they did something.
“Looks like you got your knowledge of anatomy somewhere. But that’s about it. Not even a single pig can be properly dissected. Tsk tsk.”
It is a very hard work for the listener as the mouth moves without rest on the subject that is frozen in a ridiculous posture.
In addition, the polite (?) way of speaking to professors is arrogant even to those who see it for the first time.
However, it was natural from Richie’s point of view.
To him, humans are nothing more than stupid and weak bugs, except for the mage who killed him in front of him.
No matter how much he was human in the past, as the race itself changed to the undead, even his mind changed.
Now, it was difficult to feel the same emotions as humans, even when seeing things like them.
Richie glanced around.
I frowned when I saw them doing dissections without even being able to properly peel off the skin.
In the case of the second group, they wander around among themselves and awkwardly touch the organs of the pig with their hands, and watching that makes my stomach explode.
Richie laughed openly.
“If you’re going to destroy an organ, use a hammer instead of a small knife like that.”
At his words, the students bowed their heads.
Despite Richie’s verbal abuse, they couldn’t get angry.
Even so, how could they compete with such a strong saint right in front of them for tens of seconds?
I didn’t even dare to respond in fear of him.
Ray looked at Richie with a look of surprise.
“Hoo. Don’t you know how to dissect it?”
“Roading is my specialty.”
He was confident that he would kidnap a student right away and cut his ship in style if he was told to do so.
Richie, who wants to show his loyalty, showed off his ass shaking his butt even though he was caught in a hold.
Ray said with an excited expression, probably recognizing his loyalty.
“Then try it. If you do anything stupid, I will kill you right away, so don’t think about anything else.”
“It doesn’t matter that you have a different mind.”
Ray freed Lich from his hold.
Then Richie, who had barely been freed from his funny pose, let out a low laugh.
“Heh heh. The dissection of these fools is like this.”
While talking, he walks towards the pig placed on the desk.
The lich picked up a small knife at his side and deftly skinned the pig.
Spaul-
There was no hesitation in cutting (?) as if he knew in advance what to do next.
The sight of this made the students’ mouths open.
I was looking at how well I would do if I did well, but this speed was to the point where I couldn’t speak.
Honestly, I have a sense of faster than the professor!
Ray also admired a little.
‘There is no superfluity in the action. He must have known not only the organs of the pig, but also the location of the bones and muscles.’
He was the leader of the Dark Magic Tower.
It seems that he has an edge over himself when it comes to dissection of pigs, even though he hasn’t touched important organs.
In addition, pig lungs have esophagus and tracheal veins and arteries almost attached.
It is not easy to cut it skillfully, but seeing that it was not very difficult to succeed, it was not a skill that had been dissected once or twice.
“Awesome.”
Ray muttered praise.
Do compliments make whales dance?
Having lived several times longer than most whales, he was five times as excited.
When was the last time you were recognized by someone stronger than you!
He didn’t even tell me to, but he cut out the pig’s large intestine, turned it over, and began to explain.
“I don’t know, you idiots, but if you look at this part, you can tell that the pig is sick. The skin is rough and there is something growing in the large intestine.”
At Richie’s words, Ray also nodded.
The explanation is not specific, but the conclusion is correct.
Veterinary medicine is not my major, so I don’t know the details, but I do know something about the large intestine that Rich said, namely dropsy.
Hydrocele mainly occurs when a large amount of water in the blood moves into tissues, or when the blood of animals flowing inside the blood vessels and lymph vessels becomes obstructed, and when the water adsorption capacity of the tissues increases.
The area where hydrocele occurred was not the large intestine, to be precise, but the fact that hydrocele had developed in the center of the inner blood vessel suggests that the capillary pressure had risen or the colloidal osmotic pressure of plasma had decreased.
Ray grinned at Richie for his excellent dissection of the pig.
“Can you speak confidently? It was a good dissection.”
Richie’s medical knowledge was well ahead of its time.
If you use it well, it’s enough to produce a good doctor.
His praise made Richie’s face full of conceit beyond himself.
After wiping the pig’s blood on his hand with a white cloth, he put his hand on his waist and said,
“This is a basic load.”
Even when Richie’s nose rose, Ray didn’t sound weak.
I just looked at him and smiled wickedly.
“Heh heh. okay. Basic, basic.”
He had the heart to faithfully polish the basics himself.
Did you say you came to help yourself?
There was one thing that suited him perfectly.

Elegantly drinking the fragrant tea, she suddenly shook her head.
“I can’t take any more!”
In the splendid office, Iriel cried.
At her words, Griia, who was sorting out the paperwork next to her, smiled awkwardly.
“Saintess, that’s the third time you’ve said that today.”
“…Whoa.”
They’ve been buried in papers for months now.
While Ray was clinging to the medical academy, she even took care of the work that the saint had to do.
However, the force the saint showed in the war was absurd, so there was no end to the documents about proposals and requests from neighboring countries.
Just looking at it now, most of them are invitations to come to their country, so it is ambiguous not to send a reply.
In addition, this invitation was a little cumbersome, so it was difficult for the nobles in charge of the lower administration to handle it.
Invitations to other countries can only be sent by those with a title of Marquess or higher, so it would not be appropriate if at least someone with a title of Marquess or higher did not handle it.
If Griaia hadn’t been temporarily appointed as a deputy and was processing the authority of the Duke of Chepes, she would have had to deal with all these paperwork by herself.
She said as she looked at Iriel, who was almost dying on the desk.
“Leave this to me and rest for a few hours. The saintess doesn’t sleep well, doesn’t she?”
Iriel hasn’t been able to get a good night’s sleep for the past few months.
This is because the rush of work is not only diplomatic, it is difficult enough to deal with internal factors.
Furthermore, due to frequent wars, the Holy Kingdom’s funds were also significantly drained.
Diplomacy with neighboring countries was also cut off, so the situation was more urgent than the Kingdom of Baybon or the Kingdom of Greyman.
In such a situation, how could a saintess push herself away from work and go to sleep?
Iriel said while stretching himself.
“If only our foolish saint would come back, I would have taken a break right away.”
“Ho-ho-ho. I have already sent a messenger to the saint as the saintess instructed. You will probably be back soon.”
“It’s nice that things are done so quickly.”
“Because the Lessian Empire sent me a letter to hurry up. It must have been so urgent that even the lion came with it?”
Graia also did not know the contents of the letter sent by the Lesian Empire.
It was so secret that even she, who had been temporarily granted some of the authority of the Chepes family, could not see it.
Only Pope Ecclei and Saint Iriel saw the contents of the letter.
Iriel nodded.
“It is urgent. I don’t know what it is for, but it seems that the Lessian Empire only wants the Holy Son…”
Her words made me wonder, but I wasn’t blind enough to ask.
However, the concern about what the Lessian Empire would do grew bigger.

Ale and Sain were eating at the table.
Sein said with a worried expression.
“I heard that a war has broken out in the Holy Land… I am worried even though the war has ended.”
“don’t worry. There’s no way they would have sent the saint to war unless the kingdom was crazy. Don’t worry about Ray, you just need to take care of the baby in your belly.”
Ale stroked Sein’s stomach while talking.
Even so, Sein’s worries did not completely disappear.
“But…”
“You know I’m not a kid to worry about. He’s a kid who’ll be fine no matter where you put him.”
Well, it is.
Since he was young, he was very clever, and he was a child who could understand more than 10 things only by guessing, so he should be well in the Holy Land.
The Kingdom of Celia, which is a little far from the Holy Kingdom, has not yet heard of the Saint.
The fact that he is now a rising power on the continent and is the one who beat the necromancer single-handedly.
I smiled at the thought of Ale being far away.
“He would be happy to know that he has a younger brother too.”
“sure. Perhaps they are more excited than we are?”
“ha ha ha. I guess so. When Ray returns this time, I need to teach him some swordsmanship. I had a small realization not too long ago.”
“Ho-ho-ho. Aren’t you going to get hit again?”
Ale’s expression hardened at Sein’s playful words.
Unexpectedly, there was a possibility.
Even though he is his own son, his monstrous growth is not something that the criminal can calculate.
“…Maybe he’s already an advanced Auror user, Ray guy.”
“no way. Still, it won’t work for you. Besides, it’s impossible to use magic and aura together…”
While Sein was talking, a sudden thought stopped him.
If it is Ray, somehow it seems possible.
The reason why it is impossible to use magic and aura at the same time in the first place is because of the circle.
Magic is manifested because this circle is essential for manifesting magic.
On the other hand, making non-magic auras becomes impossible because there is a circle.
If it’s Ray who uses magic without Hana Circle, that’s possible.
Perhaps you can create an aura that is more perfect and dense than the aura you made with the trick you showed before going to the Holy Land.
I got goosebumps all over my body when I thought that I might become a master before I turned 20.
If a sword master even used magic, it was a magic swordsman that only appeared in picture books.
I laughed at the thought that maybe the strongest man on the continent might be their son.
“Hahaha…”
“Hohoho…”
Their faces were smiling, but they felt it themselves.
If you look at the growth rate of your son you’ve seen so far, it’s a story with enough potential.
