To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor Chapter 38

Episode 38 Time to go to the Holy Land (1) After

telling Iriel some pieces of grass that could barely be digested by a human stomach and drawing the location of the stream on the river floor, Ray returned to the village.

Of course, I don’t know how long I can last with scraps of grass. As punishment for keeping him waiting for a whole day, he automatically praises himself for his trivial consideration for telling him about very bitter grass and tough grass like beef jerky.

How much do you think of others?

Thinking of her who might die of starvation, I told her what to eat. In fact, he told me because he would be in trouble if he died.

Thinking about this, Ray rubbed his eyes with his hand.

“By the way, I’m really tired…”

When was the last time you stayed up all night? Even though it was like a daily routine in the past, my body couldn’t adapt after 10 years.

It’s just that I’m tired because I’ve only been up all day.

Before I knew it, I saw a large tree in front of me. Although the expression “large” was colorless, it was enormously huge.

As I tried to climb Aira’s house in this condition, the world began to look yellow.

Resolving to learn from his father how to activate mana in his body, he clung to the tree.

He sighed heavily.

“Haa…”

I’m already exhausted.

I think about going up, but my body keeps hesitating.

It’s not that I can’t climb it, but it was annoying enough that I had to climb it.

Eventually he fell from the tree he was holding.

Then he moved his steps to Pia’s house.

It was because I had to go see Pia’s wounds soon anyway, and if she was lying on the bed, sleeping on the floor didn’t seem to be a hindrance.

Once my thoughts were settled, my actions naturally sped up.

Craft a basket from the skillfully rolling leaves.

Since the leaves didn’t roll around on the dirt floor, it seemed like a good rinse.

I washed my hands in the stream that ran through the center of the village and washed my basket.

After sitting down and drinking for a while, Ray filled the basket with water and headed for Pia’s house.

It was located not too far from the center of the village, so I arrived at her house quickly.

Squeak –

I heard the sound of friction on the wooden door, and the door opened.

Then he saw her lying on the bed.

The sight of her eyes closed with her dark brown hair tangled on her shoulders reminded me that she was a race of beauty.

However, it was difficult to inspire Ray, who had already been trained by Aira’s appearance.

The out-of-the-box beauty eventually raised his eyes.

Although he is a little shorter than Pia.

Ray said, seeing an object of appropriate size lying next to him.

“Yes, just this size… huh?”

I stare at the object as if I felt something strange.

It was just the right size there.

The identity of the object was Aira.

I don’t even feel popular, so I don’t know how long I’ve been there.

She was standing with her arms crossed with a slightly sullen look on her face.

“It’s only one day. But… why didn’t you come to me first?”

It seems to be referring to the case of turning back while trying to climb a tree under Aira’s house.

Are you saying you found out about yourself? It was truly a wonderful feeling.

Ray, who was just moving his hand to take care of Pia, naturally spoke to her.

“The house is too high. And we have to look at the status of Pia.”

While talking, Ray checked Pia’s condition.

The wounds on her body were quite healed.

There were a lot of scars in the first place, but most of them were residual, so it wouldn’t take long for them to heal.

If there is a little big wound, about the sword on the side?

He mixed the purple flowers he picked from the entrance of the village with his hands and dissolved them well in the water he scooped up.

Aira watched him and took a chair and sat down next to him.

she grumbled.

“The house is too high… what is the reason?”

“…”

Is that not the reason?

Ray was shocked for the first time.

The enormous height, which seemed to easily exceed ten meters, did not seem like a big deal to the elves.

Even if it’s unfair, I think I need to learn more magic, learn how to activate mana, or put stairs in the elven village.

* * *

Around the time Ray was looking at Pia, Iriel was on his way back after washing himself in the stream.

The two elves clicked their tongues as she entered the tent she had set up and started praying again.

“You’re doing that again.”

“Isn’t it difficult to be in that position?”

Not even night guards, they had little to do.

Since the only thing that could be called security was to watch the people in front of her eyes, nature’s eyes focused on her.

A human woman sits on her knees and prays all day long.

The elves got tired of seeing that.

I’m just going to stop doing that one day and just leave it alone.

But that was their mistake.

Her prayers continued on the second day.

Ray, who was about to go out for a while because he had things to bring from home and stories to tell, saw Iriel sitting in a tent when he passed the village.

Just like yesterday, I saw her kneeling and praying.

What the hell is God about her? Although she is a saint, is this much normal?

Maybe it was because I had never thought of her as a saint when I saw her, so I couldn’t adapt whenever I saw her.

All he saw was a face and armor stained with blood, stained with the madness of faith.

Ray shook his head and headed home.

* * *

Arriving home, he went straight to Ale and Sain.

A fragrant scent comes up in the form of a meal.

I tried to run with a happy heart to see the faces of my parents after a long time. But he immediately regretted it.

It was because they, who were just about to express their affection at the table, saw Ray and fell in a hurry.

Sein was embarrassed and waved his hand.

“Ah Ray, are you here? Are you hungry? Do you want to eat? Ho ho ho…”

“Kuhmm… This guy doesn’t notice. It would be okay if I came a little later.”

It’s a part where you can roughly predict what kind of atmosphere has flowed.

he said with a grin.

“Do what you are doing.”

Then he closed the door and walked to his room.

iced coffee. Could I have a younger brother around this time next year? But even if he has a younger brother, he doesn’t seem to be able to see himself.

He entered the room and stood in front of the bookshelf with his luggage bag completely empty. It is to prepare to go to the Holy Land.

It’s not that I forgave Iriel or that I didn’t like the Holy Kingdom. It was just because I felt something from the story I heard from Aira while taking care of Pia last night.

‘Rei, I want you to go to the Holy Land.’

At Aira’s words, Ray said in a puzzled manner.

‘huh? What are you talking about all of a sudden?’

Ira just looked at him with a serious expression.

‘I don’t know what you are for, but I know you want to go to the Holy Land. It’s nice to think of us, but it’s equally important not to miss the opportunity when it comes to you.’

In short, think for yourself.

He couldn’t answer anything.

That’s definitely true.

I had a feeling for myself in those words.

‘I’ve been too complacent.’

Didn’t he just see Seongguk as an opportunity to develop his own medicine?

It was funny that he had to apologize, but now he went to the holy kingdom, but it seemed better than letting the opportunity come to pass.

As long as I’ve made up my mind, I don’t have time to waste here. Didn’t he promise to make sure that even here there would be no disease that he could not cure?

It seemed that his determination would be shaken if he became stagnant here again.

Ray closed his mouth tightly and grabbed a few books he had to carry and stuffed them into his bag.

* * *

Spent the day at home.

I thought that I would not be able to return for a while, so I should spend the days that might be my last here.

Besides, I had to tell my parents about Seongguk.

It shouldn’t be delayed forever.

After eating a simple breakfast and sparring with Ale as usual, Ray gradually felt that the time had come to talk about the Holy Kingdom.

In the end, Ray confessed to Sain and Ale over lunch.

Ale said, dropping the fork she was holding with the food.

“What?”

Sein also had a similar reaction.

“What are you talking about?”

From their point of view, there is no such thing as a thunderbolt falling from a dry sky.

To say that he had to send his one and only son to the holy kingdom.

Ale’s lips trembled.

“Ray, you… a saint…? What is it that you have to go to the Holy Land…”

This could be dismissed as a kid’s joke.

But Ale and Sain also knew.

The fact that Ray had never said anything nonsense to them before.

He nodded.

It was hard to believe, but it was true. It was to the point that a series of troops came from the Holy Land to look for him, along with the saintess.

Sein covered his mouth with both hands.

“Oh my God…”

It was the time when we would normally have gathered together and had lunch. But now I couldn’t.

One of the family members has to leave, but lunch is a big deal.

In the ensuing silence, no one could eat properly.

It was Ale who broke the silence first.

“When are you going? So now… are you not coming home?”

I felt strange when my father, who always seemed energetic, was full of sadness in his voice.

I made up my mind, but for some reason, even myself was tearing up.

But it wasn’t like he couldn’t come back.

Ray shook his head at Ale’s words.

“I’ll probably go right away today. you can come back home I’m sure I won’t be able to come for a few years…”

Saein said to him.

“I am being taken to the holy kingdom, so how can I come?”

Saints and saints spend their entire lives in the Holy Land.

The Seongguk provided all the conveniences for him, but returning home like now was something he couldn’t even dream of.

Still, Ray shook his head.

“I can definitely come back.”

It was nonsense that he spat out endlessly, but I felt certain in Ray’s words.

Sein covered his mouth with both hands and the tears he tried to hold back finally burst out.

“Ugh… Where’s the law… Suddenly being a saint…”

“Why are you crying so painfully for a child who has to leave?”

Eil spoke and wrapped one hand around Sein’s shoulder.

Then, with the other hand, he squeezed Ray’s shoulder.

“Until you return, Mom and Dad will take care of you. So, go without any worries.”

Father, why wouldn’t you be sad? However, it was the heart of a father to worry about his children rather than himself.

Ray’s nose frowned as he felt the love he had for his children.

Then, Ale smiled and said.

“It’s not that the boy is crying. The guy who didn’t cry that much when he was young is grown up.”

“I’m not crying yet.”

“I don’t cry. I am covered in tears.”

“…”

He wiped away his tears.

You don’t even know what will happen in the future. I just went to the Holy Land to achieve what I wanted.

However, the fact that there were people who thought of him gave him great strength. At this moment, he was not at all worried about the road to the Holy Land alone.
