Episode 75 Gehel, a trading town (1)
Eclay said with a slight frown.
“Becoming transparent?”
“I don’t know why, but it turned out to be transparent enough to compare with water!”
“Ohh… that’s amazing. Might be worth doing some research on.”
“Yes!”
“Then why are you so excited?”
Eclay asked with a smile at his childlike appearance, seeing him for the first time.
Then, after taking a deep breath and calming down his excitement, Ray looked at Eclay and smiled.
“If you do this well… I can fix Mr. Eclay’s eyes.”
Eclay covered the book he was reading as if throwing it away.
“what!”
She also started to look agitated.
* * *
With her permission, Ray was able to monopolize the lab.
Eclay wanted to see the research that might fix his eyes right in front of his eyes, but the position of high priest was not a comfortable place to rest.
There were only three days off per month. As a saint himself, it was a day off for an entire month.
It seems that he was still in the settlement period, so he did not ask for anything, and God did not give him any instructions, so it was truly the birth of an unemployed saint.
Ray, a model unemployed saint, was experimenting with synthesizing orc blood by controlling the coagulation of troll blood.
First of all, it was an experimental stage, so there was no need to shape it when coagulating the troll’s blood.
I mixed it well so that the troll’s blood wouldn’t coagulate, and then poured some of the orc’s blood.
Then, the blood of the two entities, which seemed to mix well, hardened on one side and turned slightly transparent on the other side.
Ray let out a sigh.
“Whoa… I need to combine the two.”
No matter how hard you try to put them together, it’s not going to be easy.
I don’t know what the problem was, but the two didn’t seem to mix like water and oil.
However, it had only been a day since the research had been conducted.
It is not possible to give up in one day after grasping such a clue. Ray started mixing other things to mix these two entities.
The skin tissue of an ogre’s blood troll. Even those of other entities.
But it always failed.
After two days like that, on the day Eclay returned, we conducted research together.
Still, no noticeable progress was made.
In the first place, it was not unreasonable for it to fail since it was not known why it was transparent and what ingredients it contained.
Ray had no choice but to decide to use the last method he had in mind.
“Where are the trolls and orcs supposed to be around here?”

They left Selonia and quickly moved to the outskirts of the Holy Kingdom.
It was a self-evident fact that strict guards and knights would follow if he went out, so he had no choice but to keep it a secret in the kingdom.
Since Eclay decided to hide the fact that he had left Sellonia, he probably wouldn’t have to worry for a while.
I only spent half a day moving.
After passing through Selonia, he entered the outer city of Gehel.
But the sight that came into my eyes was horrific.
This is an outlying city, as the saying goes, the buildings are all torn down and the people living in it are all children.
Does it make sense that only children live in the city?
Is the situation in the Holy Kingdom worse than he thought?
He thought he had made quite a bit of money through the development of mercenaries, priests and farming methods, but not a single penny went back to those who really needed it.
Their appearance resembled that of the inhabitants of the turn of the century.
In the devastated area, there was nothing to eat, only dust.
In one corner, I saw a girl who was out of the crowd and was looking after her little brother.
The 15-year-old girl’s eyes are cold, and there is something strange about the frost around her.
Do you mean living in heaven? If I become an Assassin, I think I’ll make a name for myself.
In fact, no one could be seen around her.
Ray approached the girl.
He took out well-dried beef jerky and water from his pocket and suggested it.
“Eat.”
Then the girl looked at Ray.
Luxurious clothes that don’t match here. The silk seemed to move as if it were alive, and it seemed that even sand dust could be shaken off with a single gesture.
Besides, how does it look? There was a liveliness in her eyes that was out of place here, as was her striking white hair and clothes.
But the girl shook her head and refused the food he offered.
It’s a part that roughly guesses what kind of intention was to refuse food.
Ray smiled and offered jerky and water again.
“I didn’t do anything strange to the food, so go ahead and eat it.”
As he spoke, he tore off a corner of the beef jerky and showed that he was chewing it.
It was only then that he lowered his head, as if his doubts had been resolved a little, and hurriedly put the jerky into his mouth.
Do you still have the strength to chew on your skinny body? Even when the girl moved her chin, the expression of hardship was evident.
He took the jerky he chewed so hard and put it in his brother’s mouth.
My younger brother, who must have been 10 years old, swallowed the food in one gulp without even thinking about chewing it.
How much would it be if there were a lot of beef jerky? When the girl repeated that three times, she had no jerky to eat, and only her sister looked at her as if she was still hungry.
Ray sighed as he looked at the girl with her head down, unable to face her sister’s gaze.
‘Eh, it hurts my heart.’
He, who rarely spends money, took out a pocket from his bosom.
He tossed it at the girl’s feet.
Ray said to the girl who was staring at him with a puzzled look.
“Take it and live in Selonia.”
As far as he knew, the best place to live in the Holy Land was Selonia.
It was also the capital of the Holy Kingdom, and above all, it was a place where the unique characteristics of priests and nobles who made their place good were well applied.
The money in the pocket is twenty gold coins. With that much money, he could buy a house in Celonia and open a small shop.
The girl opened the pocket slightly and looked at Ray with a surprised expression.
It was as if he was asking why he was doing this to himself when he saw him for the first time.
Ray frowned at him.
“What can I do to sit there in a conspicuous place like this, holding my younger brother in my arms.”
It was a sight woven from thread.
In addition, when he was hungry, his mind of taking care of his younger brother first made him move the money bag.
At first, he looked around Gehel and tried to pass it by saying, ‘I guess development is needed here too.’
Above all, I don’t know how many orphans there are in this city, but I can’t take care of them all one by one.
I couldn’t help but look at the girl who seemed to have written a sign saying ‘I’m sorry’ in front of Hana.
Besides, I also liked his personality. It was disguised with cold eyes, but there was affection in it, and a strong will to live could be felt from the soft lips.
This was the last Ray could help.
If she can’t stand up even after doing this, it must be this girl’s lack of ability.
After taking one look at the girl, he turned his back without hesitation.
There was a different reason for coming to Gehel.
He entered the Gehel Mountains at high speed using his characteristic gliding grotesque running.
Eclay said that in the Gehel Mountains, there were many other monsters as well as trolls and orcs.
Of course, she was also aware of the divine power radiating from her body, so she didn’t tell her to take care of herself.
However, he was told to always be vigilant because he could not know what kind of monster would appear.
The mountain range was of enormous size. It is to the extent that it creates an atmosphere that even a dragon’s rare is likely to exist.
As we walked into the mountain range, we saw a place that looked like an orc’s village from the beginning.
It was a part where I could see why there were no villages around.
It wasn’t long before I went in, but when I saw that the village of monsters was all over the place.
Orcs discovered Ray when they were wondering if the reason why the city of Gehel had become that way was actually because of the monsters.
“Chwiik! It smells like a human!”
“Here is a human! Chwiik!”
Ray frowned at their snorts again.
It was an intense hum that I couldn’t get used to hearing at any time.
He seriously wondered if he should widen the nasal passages of the orcs.
However, despite their worries, the orcs blew their spears.
Wedge-!
The spear flew towards him with a tremendous piercing sound that cut through the wind.
I just nodded my head to avoid the spear that was aimed at my face.
Paang-
“Great speed and accuracy. If I had been a baseball player, I would have succeeded.”
Looking at the spear embedded in the rock and admiring it, as if the medicine had risen, twenty orcs from the village surrounded Ray.
“Chwiik! humans die Chwiik!”
“Die quietly! Chwiik!”
Females and males and strange-looking things were snarling here and there, and I lost my mind.
Looking at them holding a sword, who knew where they had picked up the spear or tree, Ray shouted a small starter word.
“Hold.”
tall.
With one word from him, the orcs who had been sprinting as if they were going to rush at any moment stopped as they were.
The eyes of the orcs started to change as if they were embarrassed when they suddenly couldn’t move their bodies.
Regardless of that, Ray started looking around the orcs one by one to check their health.
He is a legendary doctor with a history of always leading the way in modern medicine.
Just by looking at your eyes or posture, you can roughly guess where the pain is.
I left the sick ones and released the hold by selecting only the healthy ones.
“Cancel. You guys, follow me.”
“Chwiik! Chwiik!”
“Chwiiik!”
He was able to breathe, but as soon as he could move, he snorted.
Looking down at their limbs and clenching their fists, they rushed at Ray.
Although it is a monster with intelligence, is it because its level is remarkably low? Without fear, they attack with confidence because of their large numbers.
Ray grinned and raised his fist.
In an instant, his fists pierced the bodies of the orcs.
The rushing orcs had to taste the pain felt all over their bodies when they thought something had passed them by.
“Chwiiik!”
“Oh it hurts! Chwiik!”
Looking at the orcs who had fallen on the ground as they were charging at them, Ray started beating them.
It was not the sound of punching with mana, but the clear sound of hitting with a club resonated.
Orcs felt that their lives were threatened by him.
The orcs who thought they could end their lives with human fists spoke.
“Chwiik! human! I’ll follow you! stop! Chwiik!”
“Wrong! Chwiik!”
“Here we are, Chwiik! Die! Chwiik!”
But the fist never stopped.
he said with a mischievous laugh.
“I do not need!”
