Doctor Player

Chapter 118:

Chapter 118

The moment of desperation for the evil that brought disaster to the fiefdom.

Raymond stepped up to protect him; at his peril!

It wasn’t just that.

Not only did he save the people, but he even comforted them.

The Beef Festival held by Raymond.

The requiem ceremony that consoles the dead is still unforgettable.

Elmud decided then.

To dedicate his sword to Raymond.

To be the sword that protects him.

The moment he held that noble goal in his heart, all his fears disappeared.

But,

‘You are still infinitely inadequate.’

“……!”

The moment he thought about it, Elmud opened his eyes.

“Ah.”

It was a huge barracks he had never seen before.

It seemed to be the ‘Healing Penin Treatment Center that he had only heard about through the rumors.

‘I’m alive… and fine too.’

Elmud chew the bottom of his lips.

Even tough he tried so hard, he still ended up causing trouble to him again.

‘Damn.’

At that time, a blunt voice was heard.

“Are you awake?”

It was a boy with a chubby face.

It was Hanson.

“……Oh, yes.”

“How are you feeling?”

“I seem to be okay. What about Sir Raymond?” The grim-faced boy stared at Elmud with some disapproving eyes.

Elmud, who has a timid personality, was worried that he had done something wrong.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

“The master is over there.”

“Ah……”

Raymond was sitting on a simple chair and was dozing off.

Elmud was overwhelmed with emotion.

It was clear that he had been treating him all night and then fell asleep like that!

Elmud’s blue eyes were filled with water. He couldn’t hold back the overwhelming emotion.

At that time, Raymond just opened his eyes. He woke up.

Elmud got up from his seat with his teeth clenched.

Then, with shaky steps, he walked in front of Raymond and made an unexpected action.

He is on his knees!

“Once again, Mr. Raymond, I ask you to accept my sword, for I wish to be your sword!”

“….…!”

“Of course I know I’m not good enough! But as much as I’m not good enough, I’ll do ten to a hundred times as much as I can with my heart to cut the bone!”

In this way, Elmud, the kingdom’s greatest swordsman, swore an oath of allegiance to Raymond for the second time.

***

‘Wait, what was it? I had been sleeping for a long time.’

Raymond rubbed the corner of his mouth.

He didn’t really take a nap because he was tired of treating Elmud all night. In fact, teh surgery went so well that he didn’t have to worry about anything after that.

So, he was just taking a nap for the first time in a while because he had some free time, but Elmud seemed to have misunderstood something again.

‘Anyway, what should I do?’

Raymond made a troubled face as he looked at Elmud kneeling infront of him.

‘I’m a healer, what kind of loyalty oath is he swearing into my name? Am I no king nor prince.’

However, he was also worried about what kind of accident this discouraged sweet potato would cause.

Anyway, it was a sweet potato that was difficult to deal with.

‘Hold in. Why do I have to think about this as a bad idea?’

Raymond rolled his eyes.

He is a high-ranking Sword Expert.

‘If I accept him, there would be an endless use for him.’

‘Just by taking him with me, I will be able to prevent miscellaneous troubles like fighting. Where else can I get such high-ranking personnel for free? Should I just close my eyes and accept?’

He was tempted by that.

But soon he shook his head.

‘The Marquis Aris will not leave me alone.’

Marquis Aris

It is the most prestigious knight in the Kingdom of Houston, which has served the king for generations.

Making his successor serve him? By just imagining it, he starts to get afraid of his future.

‘He is coveted into a high-level position. Though, is there no other way?’

On the other hand, who is Raymond?

Contrary to his saintly appearance, he is the embodiment of a snob.

He couldn’t give up easily just because a highly-skilled and high-ranking person infront of him is asking him to take care of him.

It was like a fish dancing its butt in front of a cat, asking for it to catch and eat it.

‘There’s a way… Oh, this is good!’

“You cannot pledge your loyalty to me. I am afraid I cannot take you as my sword.”

Elmud’s face became very heavy. He looked like a baby bird that had lost its mother.

“Is it because I’m not good enough?”

“No. I’ll be honest, it is because you are the heir to Marquis Aris. As everyone says, I’m a lowly illegitimate child.”

Elmud gave a stiff look.

“That’s not true. What lowly illegitimate son of a man? Who would dare call sir Raymond that?! Who is it? Just tell me. I won’t let it go!”

“Oh, no.”

Raymond was taken aback by the sudden change of momentum.

An advance expert was an advance expert. His strength was no joke.

“If that’s a problem, I’ll leave the family.”

“What?”

“I am a knight. It is not the family’s pretense that matters. I want to dedicate my sword to a true lord!”

Is he really the innocent boy he saw back then?

Elmud’s blue eyes were blazing with intense will. It was a light so intense that it was frightening to face.

‘Well, I can take him, right? He won’t be a Hanson 2, right?’

A cold ominous moment passed by, but it was a free, super-high-quality manpower that was to be coveted to just give up on.

“There is no need for that. How about something like this instead?”

“What is it?”

“Please serve the patient, not me.”

“….!”

Elmud’s eyes grew at the unexpected words.

Raymond looked at the patients lying in the barracks with grave eyes.

It was a solemn look with the effect of the properly expressed “doctor’s charisma.”

“Look. Not only here, but there are so many patients. Please become the ‘Knightage Hospitaller’ of the Penin Treatment Center and serve the patients”

“……!”

A relief knight serving patients!

It was a trick Raymond came up with to avoid the wrath of the Marquis Aris.

If they to this, the Marquis won’t be angry with him as he is not being loyal to Raymond, but is working for the Penin Treatment Center!

It was a time when he was satisfied with his own perfect trick.

Elmud looked moved.

“I am Elmud. Under my lord’s command, I pledge to serve the patients as a relief knight from now on!”

He knelt hard again and put his head down on the floor.

Raymond looked embarrassed.

He thought it was just a trick, but Elmud’s response was so solemn that he felt a little sorry.

“Well, anyway, please take care of me from now on. Don’t call me Lord. It is the patient you will serve, not me.” Raymond wondered if he would listen.

However, Raymond did not know Elmud’s inner thoughts at this moment.

‘As expected, I’m not good enough, so sir Raymond refused to let me serve him as my lord.’

But Elmud was not as frustrated as he had been before. Instead, he made a firm commitment.

‘I’ll do my best to fulfill my duties as a relief knight and receive sir Raymond’s recognition.’

Lord.

He can’t speak out now, but one day he will proudly call Raymond my lord.

Because the only lord in his life is Raymond.

In this way, Elmud, one of the best guardian knights of the Pennine Treatment Center and the first knight of the ‘Knights of Relief’ that would shake the continent, joined the Pennine Treatment Center.

***

That wasn’t the only happy thing.

Soon after, the impregnable Fort Gallant was captured!

“It’s all thanks to Raymond.”

“I thought a few thousand people would have to die for it to fall.”

“Thanks to Raymond, we were able to overcome it without major casualties.”

There was a reason why people were talking about this.

“I don’t think it’s easy to break through the front head on. I think we need to find a different path.”

Inspired by the words passing by during the operation meeting, the staff found a detour and launched a surprise operation!

Thanks to this, Raymond made another great contribution.

Raymond shook his head.

Of course, he didn’t say no to the ball.

He swallowed it.

Because all of this will come back to the fertile yolk territory! The more balls, the better!

‘Huh, good. Very good.’

The most encouraging thing was the fall of Fort Gallant, which led to the fall of the entire province of Rafald into the clutches of the Kingdom of Houston.

It was the first time in the long history of the conflict between the two countries that Kingdom of Houston completely occupied the northern realm of the Droughton Kingdom.

Many people praised Raymond for his greatest contribution.

It wasn’t wrong.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Raymond was involved in several important victories against the Droughton Kingdom.

Now the battlefield has been extended to the central part of the Kingdom of Droughton.

***

“……”

Grand Duke Berard, seated on the throne, remained silent without saying a word.

A cold aura of repeated defeat hung over his face.

“They made it all the way to the central part of the country?”

“…Yes, Grand Duke. The battlefield is expected to unfold around the Peter River.”

The faces of the various generals and knights who attended the meeting were also dark.

Once the central region was occupied, the capital was just around the corner.

They had to repel the Houstonians.

‘But how?’

‘As long as he’s holding on.’

That guy.

It means Raymond.

The leading player in the victory of the Kingdom of Houston so far.

Droughton’s generals gritted their teeth and remembered Raymond.

‘Honestly, I’m not scared of the Kingdom of Houston. The problem is Raymond, that guy. How do you handle him?’

Even ordinary soldiers were moved by Raymond and became courageous and brave.

The plans of the Kingdom of Droughton were repeatedly thwarted by Raymond, and his schemes were truly extraordinary.

……it was an exaggerated misunderstanding, of course, but now the generals of Droughton thought that all their losses were due to Raymond.

The same was true to Grand Duke Berard.

He was feeling the limit for the first time in his life.

‘I can’t believe they even captured Fort Gallant so easily. Never would I have thought that he would use his wits to find a detour at the bottom of a cliff that only some mountaineers know about.’

For reference, the detour was a remote road that was only used by some local mountaineers and that even the Droughton Army did not fully understand.

‘It can’t go on like this. I have to come up with something groundbreaking.’

“…… How about entrusting the army to General Durak?”

“……!”

For a moment, there was a stir in the conference hall.

Turn around!

He was the best commander of the Droughton Kingdom army!

Thirty years ago, as a young man, he led the Droughton army to victory over the Houston Kingdom, and later even the desert immigrants in the south knelt.

The best master who has made a spoonful of achievements in many battles, big and small!

Surely, a general like him would be able to win against Raymond as well.

“…….”

However, Grand Duke Berard only wiggled his eyebrows and did not nod.

This is because General Durak condemned the tyranny of Grand Duke Berard and he personally imprisoned him.

‘You devil! Don’t you hear the cries of the people crying because of you?’

General Durak’s accusations still seem to be ringing in his ears.
