Doctor Player Chapter 94
It wasn’t just the villagers who felt that way.
It was the same with Elmud, the lord.
Elmude made a promise on the day Raymond returned to the capital after everything was finished.
‘I have to repay this favor.’
he’s a knight.
There was only one way to repay the favor.
Elmude knelt in front of Raymond with a trembling face.
“Lord Raymond, please allow me to offer you my sword!”
It was a knight’s oath!
“… … yes?”
Elmude was sincere.
‘It’s not a decision I made lightly.’
Elmude has met many noble bloodlines.
But no one could compare to Raymond.
Neither the 2nd Prince Cairn nor the 3rd Prince Remerton were anything to compare with Raymond.
‘It’s a vessel that surpasses His Highness Python, the genius crown prince who passed away in an unfortunate accident.’
– A knight’s sword becomes perfect only when he finds a target to be loyal to.
These were the words of her father, the Marquis Aris. Marquis Aris, who said that, served Oden, the King of Knights, all his life.
And Elmud found a target to offer his sword.
‘That person… … want to serve I want to dedicate my sword to Raymond.’
Even if I offered his sword, I received a favor that was worth it.
Also, he was a respectable person who deserved his sword!
Of course, Raymond’s reaction was absurd.
‘What kind of puppy farts is this.’
It’s nonsense.
‘It’s nonsense that Marquis Aris will come running and kill me.’
“I think you’re thinking about something wrong… … .”
“Seriously! Please accept my sword!”
But the genius boy was reckless for some reason.
I could feel the will to kill in the twinkle in my eyes.
Good words didn’t seem to back down.
Raymond’s face hardened as he felt the energy to cling to him persistently.
At times like this, even if I said rather harsh words, I had to make sure that they would never stick around again.
“You are frivolous.”
“yes?”
“Do you think it is time for you to offer your sword to someone?”
“… … !”
Raymond said deliberately coldly.
“You are still infinitely lacking. Before offering your sword to someone, think about honing yourself further.”
‘I’ll come to my senses when my head is a little bigger.’
Fortunately, the genius boy understood the language.
Moisture filled his eyes, and he lowered his head with a solemn face.
“… … That’s right. I’m still not enough. Oh, I see.”
“Enough then.”
Raymond left Elmud and left for the capital.
‘I spent more time than I thought. I have to go back and earn money.’
But Raymond didn’t know.
What was Elmud thinking?
‘Yes, Raymond-sama is right. i’m a coward Who do you dare to offer your sword to?’
Perhaps Raymond was worried about him and gave him that advice.
‘I will definitely work hard to overcome my flaws. That’s why I’ll become a sword worthy of Raymond-sama!’
Elmude grabbed the sword.
It won’t take long.
Now that he had a clear goal of serving Raymond.
That’s how the legend of Elmud, later praised as one of the “best guardian knights” of the medical school and “knight of the moonlight,” began.
* * *
Raymond hurried on his way to the capital.
I was in a hurry because I had been away for too long.
But before reaching the capital.
I met unexpected people.
“Queen Baron Pennin?”
“Sir Balton?”
The Royal Knights, including Balton, were waiting for Raymond!
“Please wait a moment.”
Then, they hurriedly sent a telegram through the magic communication port.
-Baron Penin arrived in the capital. Let me spread the word!
-i get it! Bring it carefully!
‘what?’
Balton smiled as he tilted his head.
“Don’t be alarmed.”
“… … ?”
“For now, come with us.”
The royal knights surrounded Raymond from front to back and from side to side. The question was further amplified because it was a formation that could only be seen when escorting an honored guest.
‘what? why?’
Arriving in the capital in confusion, Raymond opened his eyes wide.
“Wow!”
“Long live Baron Penin!”
A multitude of people had come out to meet him!
“This one?”
“Words about what the baron did in the Lanton estate spread all over the capital. The people are expressing their gratitude for saving countless people from the Drotons’ malicious schemes.”
Raymond made a dumbfounded face.
No matter what, such a welcoming crowd?
“Still, this is a bit harsh… … .”
“Not too bad.”
Balton replied with a serious face.
“You have done such a great job. If it wasn’t for the baronet, I don’t know what kind of chaos would have come to the kingdom.”
Balton looked around at the cheering people.
“Those people were not forcibly mobilized by the royal family. I voluntarily came out and cheered at the news that the baronet was returning.”
“… … .”
“Because the baronet is already a hero in the hearts of the people.”
Raymond made a puzzled face.
A hero to a single therapist.
It seemed like an excessive expression, but seeing the cheers of the people, it didn’t seem wrong at all.
“Wow!”
“Long live Raymond!”
“Long live the prince!”
“handsome!”
Raymond shook his head, stunned by the enthusiastic cheers.
‘eww… … It’s good to have a reputation, but it’s scary because it’s too enthusiastic.’
Faced with a large crowd, my timid instinct suddenly jumped out.
I felt like I had to run away to the treatment center.
But Balton caught him.
“You must go to the Capital Square.”
“yes?”
“His Highness the King is waiting for you.”
“… … !”
Are you waiting for Oden?
Could it be that the royal knight contacted you earlier?
Raymond’s eyes widened as he went to the plaza.
There was a crowd that could not be compared to the welcome crowd from earlier.
It wasn’t even common people.
All of the nobles who asked to surrender the capital were also present.
In addition, the royal knights were lined up in the center wearing splendid clothes as if holding a ceremony, and King Oden was seated in the center.
‘What… … ?’
“This is a place created by His Highness the King to praise the baronet’s achievements. Congratulations on becoming a hero of the Houston kingdom.”
Raymond froze in a daze at this colossal scale.
It seemed like a dream.
“Come forward.”
said King Auden.
Raymond barely moved, trying to calm his thumping heart.
My head went white from the countless gazes.
“Meet Your Highness, the former King.”
King Auden looked at Raymond.
blur for a while. A complicated feeling passed through Auden’s eyes.
“I will commend you for the achievements you have made while fighting the villains of Drowton. chancellor. List the merits of Baron Pennin.”
Chancellor Garman, who was wearing a robe next to him, opened a scroll made of silk.
“Queen Baron Pennin. You have made countless contributions against the evil Drowton. The balls you’ve accumulated so far… … .”
The case of the attempted assassination of King Auden.
Bay Area epidemic incident.
A monster appearing in an ancient ruin.
Poisoning case of the Marquis of Langham.
The balls that Raymond made in the past were enumerated.
“… … It also revealed that the Droton Kingdom was behind these events.”
Chancellor Galman paused for a moment.
“This time, we saved the Southern Territory from the terrible plans of the D’Thorne villains and found out what they were doing.”
As soon as the words were finished, cheers rang out.
Wow!
Long live Raymond!
It was a truly colossal shout.
The ball was great, but since it was Raymond who was loved by the original people, they cheered more fervently.
King Auden continued.
“I will give you a reward for these achievements, and I will give you the title of baron.”
“… … !”
Raymond’s eyes widened again.
Above the baron!
It was a position that was incomparable to the existing baronet position.
If a baronet is an honorary title that has barely been given the title of nobility, from baron onwards, he is recognized as a complete nobility belonging to the fifth rank.
It is also a title of succession, and it is possible to have territories, and you can have vassals under your command.
Auden said to Raymond.
“To show the example of the god of war.”
I want to hold the conferment ceremony right away.
“… … Raymond of Peninga. I swear in the name of Fennin, and eternal loyalty to you and to Houston.”
“I’m from Houston. In the name of the great Houston, I will accept your loyalty, and I will give you the rank of baron.”
The treasured sword handed down to the kings of Houston for generations touched Raymond’s shoulder.
Thus, an abbreviated title ceremony took place, and Raymond was made a baronet.
Enthusiastic cheers broke out again.
“Your fief will be the Lafalde region.”
“… … ?”
Raymond tilted his head for a moment.
Lapalde province.
It was because it was an area located in the Droton Kingdom.
‘no way?’
Raymond’s fingertips trembled.
That’s when I was able to notice.
Why did Oden prepare such a grandiose place?
It wasn’t just a tribute to merit.
This place is to make Raymond a hero of Houston before the war and at the same time make an important proclamation to the people.
Auden looked up at the sky.
“I, King Auden, swear to heaven in Houston’s name that I will condemn the demons of Drowton for these terrible sins.”
Wow!
A brilliant light burst from Auden’s sword.
The symbol of the Sword Master.
It was Aura Blade!
Oden raised his brilliant aura blade and proclaimed.
“I will start a holy war.”
It was a declaration of war.
Thus, the war between the Houston Kingdom and the Drowton Kingdom began.
* * *
Declaration of war!
A tremendous storm raged over the Houston Kingdom.
“Let’s beat the demons of Drowton!”
“Everyone take up your arms!”
The atmosphere wasn’t bad.
Because the fault of the Droton Kingdom was obvious, all the people stood up in high spirits.
“Thanks to Baron Pennin’s uncovering the Drowtons’ doings, he has greatly advanced in his cause.”
Chancellor Galman said.
“He did a really great job.”
Causes are very important in war.
Sometimes to the point of deciding the outcome of a war.
Houston’s soldiers will exert great power with the belief that they will punish the demons, and Drowton’s soldiers will not be able to fight properly because they will not find a reason to fight.
Also, in this case, it wasn’t just a matter of fraud.
It’s not just a territorial dispute, it’s a ‘holy war’!
It had great symbolic meaning.
“Since it has become a ‘hospital’ rather than a mere territorial dispute, it is possible to lead other allied nations to participate in the war. It will be a very lucrative war.”
If it was a simple territorial dispute, the allies of the other crusader empires would have said they didn’t know.
There was no reason to help, and above all because it had the potential to provoke several other countries in the south.
If it went wrong, it could escalate into a great battle between the Crusader Empire and the Confederacy of Southern States.
‘But now that it’s a holy war, the story is different.’
It was because of Raymond.
