Doctor Player Chapter 75
It was a surprising statement.
It meant that the exploration of the ruins this time was a conspiracy of this handsome man!
And the surprises didn’t stop there.
This answer flowed from within the crystal ball.
-Everything is going smoothly according to your plan. Your Highness Archduke Berard.
Grand Duke Berard!
He, who is actually ruling the kingdom of Drowton on behalf of the young king, was the subject of this conspiracy.
It wasn’t just this conspiracy. Neither the previous Auden assassination nor the Bay Area epidemic.
It was all his conspiracy.
“Keuk-kuk If the Royal Knights are massacred, the Houston kingdom will be turned upside down.”
– Your shock will be great.
“Is there any chance that they will succeed in the exploration?”
– Absolutely not. No matter how strong a knight is, the moment he faces that ‘monster’, it’s as good as dead.
‘monster’.
It was a trap they dug.
Archduke Berard was convinced that the royal knights would be massacred. Because it was such a great monster.
‘I was lucky. Discovering the ruins hidden in the Houston Kingdom by chance while exploring before the war.’
As soon as he found the ruins, Berard immediately dug a trap.
A black magician was dispatched to summon a powerful monster from the depths of the ruins.
And rumors spread in time.
“If the Royal Knights are massacred, the atmosphere at the upcoming Foundation Festival will be ruined. It will get messy.”
-Yes, it will. Taking advantage of that opportunity, I will definitely poison Marquis Langham, the ambassador of the Peninsula Kingdom.
“Yeah, don’t forget. Our real purpose is not just the lives of a few members of the Royal Knights.”
It was a terrifying story.
To take advantage of the chaos and poison the envoys of the Peninsula Kingdom!
Currently, the Houston Kingdom was requesting financial support from the wealthy Peninsula Kingdom in preparation for a war with the Drowton Kingdom.
However, it was clear that the story would change if the envoy died in a violent death at a banquet.
‘And if you go all the way to ‘The Last Conspiracy’, Houston Kingdom will be in a mess. Before the war even broke out.’
Archduke Berard gave a fishy smile.
The end of all these conspiracies was one.
Win the war right away!
‘It’s only the bad-tempered knights who ignorantly compete with strength.’
Archduke Berard was an acknowledged genius strategist.
I prefer to win before fighting.
He planned to ruin the kingdom of Houston before the war through several conspiracies.
‘… … That was the plan, but now things have gone awry. Because of that humble illegitimate son, Baron Pennin.’
Archduke Berard frowned.
Originally, the capital of the kingdom of Houston should have been piled up in great chaos by now.
Public sentiment is also boiling.
But what?
‘Because of Baroness Penin, let alone confusion, public sentiment is articulated.’
Baron Pennin stopped their plot in the Bay District.
It also has overwhelming support from the common people in the capital of the kingdom.
‘Our Prince Raymond is the best!’
If you go to Houston, the capital of the kingdom, you can hear stories like this quite often.
The problem is that he is the son of King Auden.
Although he was an illegitimate child that no one acknowledged, support for the royal family was rising thanks to him.
“Anyway, make sure to deal with it. Failure is no longer acceptable.”
– I see, Your Highness the Grand Duke! We will make sure you succeed!
It was before the crystal ball went out.
“Wait black.”
‘Black’ was the code name of the subordinate in the crystal ball.
-Your Highness?
“… … no. Good job.”
The other side of the crystal ball sent a puzzled look, but Archduke Berard shook his head.
I thought what I was trying to ask was too sensitive.
‘Is Raymond going to participate in the exploration of the ruins this time?’
Berard smiled as he recalled the question.
‘It doesn’t matter if Raymond participates. No matter how strange his healing technique is, he won’t be able to overcome the monster’s ‘curse’.’
The monsters they summoned to the ruins were not simple monsters.
cast a terrible curse
It was a ‘curse of death’ that no healer could cure.
‘I’d rather have him participate. To be killed together.’
It would be helpless unless his treatment could revive a patient on the brink of death.
Berard was so sure.

When I arrived at the meeting place, a message came to my mind.
[Quest has occurred!]
[Protect the moths jumping into the fire!]
(Medicine Quest)
Medicine Grade: One Half Mess
Difficulty: Good
Quest Description: We are going to explore an extremely dangerous place. Save the lives of the expedition!
Clear Condition: Minimize Victims
Reward: Depends on Achievement
Perk: Someone’s Favor
‘Depends on Achievement?’
As I questioned it, an additional explanation came to my mind.
[Clear Achievements]
A- All members return safely
: Level up × 3 skill points 50 points
B-Majority deaths
: Level up × 2 skill points 30 points
C-More than half deaths
: Failure. No compensation
“… … .”
Raymond kept his mouth shut.
Less than half deaths? It was an explanation of something cheap.
‘what? Is it a dangerous place? Wasn’t it a safe ruin?’
The title of the quest was also terrifying.
‘Protect the moths jumping into the fire!’?
The level of difficulty is also ‘award’.
Even additional messages surfaced.
[Bonus benefits are given considering the difficulty of the quest!]
[One sub-skill can be used without restrictions for 24 hours!]
‘What the hell?’
Raymond swallowed.
‘This kind of bonus is usually given when the difficulty of the quest is extremely difficult, right?’
I came here to pick up some treasure, but something didn’t feel right from the start.
‘Will it bounce?’
Raymond’s first principle is safety first.
Shouldn’t you enjoy a movie of wealth and honor only when you are healthy and not injured!
‘What’s the quick fix? Health is first!’
It was the moment I thought so.
A familiar voice was heard.
“Are you Baron Pennin?”
It was a young man with short hair.
It was an arrogant impression, but it seemed to be looking down at the whole world.
“My name is Mason, the Royal Healer. In this expedition, I took on the responsibility of the supporter part.”
“… … !”
Raymond rolled his eyes in surprise.
Mason!
it was famous
A-class healer!
“From now on, I want you to follow my instructions. of course.”
Mason looked Raymond up and down.
The meaning of contempt was clear in his gaze.
“I will not make you do anything too hard. It won’t help much.”
“… … !”
The other healer who participated as an assistant next to him also laughed.
“Why can’t I help you? You can bring Mason-sama’s luggage with you.”
“I thought about that too, but I didn’t really want to have my precious luggage dirty by touching it with hands mixed with low blood. Anyway, it’s useless, so why did I participate? It just makes things more complicated.”
Raymond furrowed his eyebrows.
He had such a deep inner workings (?) that he was not offended by such low-level ridicule.
I just saw it as an opportunity.
“I listened to what Mason said. With that said, I’m leaving the exploration.”
“… … I beg your pardon?”
Raymond shrugged.
“Didn’t I say you didn’t need me? He even insulted me.”
“… … .”
The unexpected precipitation put Mason and other therapists silent.
Raymond raised his voice even more.
[The ‘Speech’ skill is manifested!]
It wasn’t just that.
[I confirm that the opponent is ‘the truth’.]
[The opponent’s truth power is ‘medium’!]
[The ‘truth countermeasure’ is revealed!]
With the help of various skills, the words came out smoothly as if oil was smeared on the tongue.
“I tried to participate in this exploration for the sake of patients who may happen. But it seems that my feelings went against Mason’s will. I’ll just go back.”
“… … No, Baron Pennin. for a moment… … .”
If Raymond returns like this, the position of the healers here will be difficult.
It is because they are persecuted and driven out.
But Raymond was stubborn.
“You insulted me. Bow your head and apologize formally. Otherwise, I will return.”
“… … .”
Seeing Mason’s face turn red, Raymond sighed in delight.
‘There’s no way that guy who looks full of shit can apologize. I’ll go back to that excuse! Let the classy A-class healer take care of it!’
Even if it wasn’t, I was worried about how to get out of it, but I was really grateful for the excuse.
“I wanted to volunteer for patients who might happen, but it’s a pity. Enough then.”
Then, unexpected figures intervened.
“This seems to be the fault of Mason Healer.”
“How about an apology?”
They were knights of the Royal Knights.
They didn’t want to cause trouble even before the exploration began.
Also, there was a secret admiration for Raymond’s words, ‘I participated for the sake of the patient’.
fast.
Seeing Mason grind his teeth, Raymond felt a sense of urgency.
His face was so red that he felt like he was about to apologize.
‘You can’t apologize! just let me go! You remain timid!’
Raymond provoked Mason.
“You don’t have to say that. Because Mason Hiller was just talking about his thoughts. As an A-class healer, it is understandable that you look down on a healer like me.”
In other words, it means that Mason was arrogant and made a foolish remark.
Mason’s face grew even more red.
However, Raymond’s remarks also had an unexpected effect, sharpening the eyes of the knights.
Everyone looked at Mason with accusations.
“If I had heard that, I would have challenged you to a duel.”
“That’s right. Especially since Baron Pennin came for us, I don’t think it’s right to insult him like that.”
Raymond was very upset when the knights unexpectedly took his side.
‘No, just side with him!’
but.
Against Raymond’s wishes, Mason surrendered.
“… … I’m sorry. I made a mistake.”
When that happened, it was Raymond who was in trouble.
Raymond was straight.
“There is no need for an apology that is not in your heart. It makes me uncomfortable to hear.”
It means that he will go back unless he apologizes sincerely.
Raymond wanted Mason to burst into anger.
Indeed, Mason’s fists trembled. It was pathetic.
Unfortunately for Raymond, however, Mason held back his anger.
It was because Lord Balton, the head of the expedition, had sharp eyes in the distance.
Lord Balton was a high-ranking knight in the Royal House Order, a position where even Mason had to bow his head.
“… … I’m sorry. I sincerely apologize, so please accept it.”
Mason bowed his head and apologized.
‘shit!’
‘shit!’
Mason and Raymond swear inwardly at the same time.
Mason was furious and Raymond had to participate unconditionally in the exploration.
