Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 250

Episode 250 As if his earnest wish had worked, the man who drank deer blood began to show improvement the very next day.

The ooze disappeared and the redness of the skin was noticeably reduced. Above all, the person concerned felt much lighter and went to the knights first.

I didn’t come alone either.

“I brought my wife and children here as well. Please help me, knights.”

The family of a man with a distinctly red face.

Now, the man’s face, which had been oozing until yesterday, looked more normal.

“Bring everyone.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty!”

Logan didn’t just feed deer blood to the man’s family.

Because working on a large scale with only one person’s experiment results was a burden even for him.

Fortunately, all five who were fed deer blood yesterday began to show remarkable improvement and were looking for the next treatment target.

There was no need to reject those who volunteered.

“It’s done. This is all for the good of everyone.”

The man brought his wife and daughter, and at first they showed serious resistance to deer blood.

[Yeah old?! Is it really that effective?!]

“Yes. You did it.”

[Thank you, Your Majesty!]

“Thank you for your hard work. If you suppress the plague like this, you will be the greatest person of merit. You can expect a reward.”

[Thank you for your grace….]

“It’s no use saying anything. I gave instructions to capture deer from all over the country and send them to Raftan. You must return as soon as possible and analyze the process by which deer blood cures diseases. And “Make a sure cure!”

[yes. I understand, Your Majesty!]

Gilbert’s face was extremely bright as he answered energetically.

Drinking deer blood cures the plague.

This unbelievable rumor spread like lightning within the village where the relief team was staying.

Those who drank it and got cured began to spread the word. Moreover, since the king even vouched for it, all those who were suffering without receiving treatment from priests while waiting for their turn cheered.

There was just one problem.

“your majesty!”

Ilia, who entered the king’s barracks without warning, turned pale the moment she saw the scene inside the barracks.

“Oh, you’re here. Bishop Ilya.”

The king, who had an unusual appearance with red eyes and red hair, was covered in blood all over his body and was holding the head of a deer.

And in front of it.

Gulp.

“You have to drink it all the way through! Quick!”

There was a girl drinking a bowl of deer blood next to a man who appeared to be her father.

A king covered in blood and a girl drinking the blood of an animal in front of him.

It was truly a terrible and grotesque sight, like something you would see in a painting depicting hell.

That wasn’t all.

On one side of the barracks, nearly ten knights were holding a deer’s neck and drawing blood, and in front of them were people lined up to receive and drink the blood like a chalice.

In the eyes of Ilya, a faithful priest, it was a shocking sight, as if a cross section of hell had unfolded into reality.

“Your Majesty. How on earth is this…?”

Hands shaking.

A voice that trembles even more than that.

However, it was not Logan who answered that question first, but the girl covered in blood.

“I think my fever is going down, priest.”

A trickle of fresh blood flowed from the corner of the girl’s mouth as she smiled awkwardly, and when Ilya saw that, he finally reached the limit of his patience.

“Aaaah!”

He ran out of the barracks with a loud scream.

– Wow!

As Logan, for her own sake, tried not to imagine what was happening outside the barracks.

Ilya, who came back with her mouth covered and eyes full of tears, raised her voice and asked.

“Your Majesty. What on earth is this scene? Are you really drinking deer blood?”

Logan answered that question calmly.

“Ah. There are still few deer around here, so this is all. But soon deer will be sent from all over the country, so from then on…” I

will create hell in earnest.

That’s how Logan’s words sounded to Ilya’s ears.

“Never! Absolutely not! Drinking the blood of a live animal! That’s blasphemy!!”

This was the first extremely angry look I had seen since getting to know Ilya.

But Logan’s answer to that was simple.

“I knew deer blood was a cure for the plague, but why shouldn’t I do it? I can’t do that. I have to save my people.”

“Your Majesty! This is a taboo in the temple! It is absolutely unacceptable and must never be done! There must be another way!”

Pale complexion, trembling hands.

Ilya screamed desperately, covering her nose to block out the bloody smell, but there was no way her words would make sense.

“What other way? Aren’t you on the verge of collapsing right now?”

Those words left Ilya speechless for a moment.

In fact, her pale face and trembling hands were not simply because she was shocked by the sight before her eyes. No, if we were to weigh it, the aftereffects of the fasting and prayer that continued for three days would be greater.

Although he was a reward for treating patients more fervently than anyone else, as a bishop he could never accept this current situation.

“This is unacceptable! This can never be done! That is…”

Ilya’s impassioned explanation continued for a long time.

The act of drinking the blood of a live animal. It was a characteristic of a race that worshiped the devil, who was the main enemy of the temple in ancient times, and its main content was that it was a sin to bring the devil they worshiped back into the world.

But what returned that passionate argument was cynicism.

“Vampires. Everyone on the continent knows the legend about them. They also sucked human blood. But it has nothing to do with animals, right?”

“But Your Majesty! In the temple, the act of drinking the blood of a living creature is designated as a taboo. It is defined as an act of hostility to the Nine Great Gods!”

“What is the difference between eating the flesh of a deer and drinking its blood? They are fundamentally the same. Think flexibly, Bishop. This is not human blood. Once again, I have only administered the most effective means of treatment for my people. !”

“…I am truly sorry, Your Majesty. Just look at this hellish sight! Does this look like a normal course of treatment?! No priest can accept this!”

Ilya shouted, pointing to every corner of the barracks covered in blood, but Logan’s answer did not change.

“I will do whatever is necessary, Bishop. But I have no intention of putting you through this either, so you can do your duty out there. We will do what we can.”

Ilya looked as if he was going to say something again several times, but then he pursed his lips and left the barracks.

‘okay. ‘This is enough for now.’

Logan accepted it as an inevitable compromise.

however.

The next day, I realized that that thought was too optimistic.

“strike?”

I unconsciously asked back at the absurd and unbelievable words, but it was an undeniable fact that 120 priests were gathered right in front of me.

And that too in the morning when they had to start treating the people.

“Yes, Your Majesty. If you do not stop this devilish practice immediately, our priests will no longer heal our people.”

“Are you going to abandon the people who are falling before your eyes just because of one old, forgotten doctrine?”

At those words, a look of conflict appeared on Bishop Ilia’s face for a moment.

But before she could reply, Fabian, the senior priest behind her, took a step forward with a stern expression.

“People who practice devil worship are not subjects, Your Majesty. All the priests agreed on that fact.”

At those words, Logan’s red eyes scanned the priests, and only a few people could be seen slightly avoiding his eyes.

Among them, there must have been those who did not agree but had no choice but to follow the trend.

Faces that are consistently tired.

I know that the priests have been working hard, whether willingly or unwillingly, but…

‘I can’t believe they’re going on strike just because of that one doctrine.’

It seemed like I had finally found a solution, but then another problem arose.

Logan had no choice but to grab his throbbing head again.

ha.

“…I understand what you mean. We will discuss it, and you take care of the people!”

“We will not move a single step until you promise not to continue that miserable act, Your Majesty.”

It’s literally something that just makes you sigh.

Logan quickly gathered the healers and knights.

“That’s…”

“It’s a treatment method that shows improvement right in front of your eyes, but why…”

“Have you seen those clogged seeds!”

“Anyway, priests…”

The reactions of others, especially the healers, were not good.

Among them, Gilbert, who was clearly tired after returning to Raftan after riding his horse all night, stepped out in front of Logan first.

“Your Majesty, we cannot stop the deer blood cure. Remember that the priests were already on the verge of collapse before we started this.”

“Yes, I know. Patients with deer blood are showing remission. But can this treatment really replace 120 priests?”

“Didn’t you say that deer are being sent from all over the country? According to my calculations, it is quite possible.”

“Can you take responsibility for that?”

“Yes! I will risk my life to promise you this.”

Gilbert and the therapists nodded with confident faces.

Maybe they see this situation as an opportunity for them to be recognized. Logan wasn’t unaware of that fact.

However, it is also true that the priests’ treatment has already reached its limits.

Logan decided to trust Gilbert and the therapists’ determination to risk their lives one more time.

“Good. I will try to convince the priests. You continue the treatment!”

Then he called Gilbert aside and set conditions.

“You know that drinking blood as it is is the biggest problem, right? Make a medicine using deer blood as soon as possible. Even the priests won’t be able to say anything if you do that.”

“Well, isn’t that just blindfolding me?”

“That is the original doctrine of the temple. Giving them a reason to close their eyes and fight back is the reason why we need to develop medicine. Do you understand?”

“…Yes, I understand.”

Gilbert was convinced, but it was not easy to persuade the priests.

rather.

“Stop your devil worship immediately, Your Majesty!”

“Please stop the blasphemy, Your Majesty!”

The priests gathered in front of the king’s barracks and started shouting.

In addition to the priests’ actions, some patients, who felt anxious about the priests stopping treatment, also refused treatment, causing Logan’s head pain.

“I don’t like poetry. The priests said that if you drink blood, you will go to hell.”

“Well, if I’m going to die anyway, I want to go to heaven when I die.”

Patients who had oozing fluid on their broken skin refused to take deer blood.

The number of patients refusing treatment continued to increase as the voices of priests grew louder.

“Gilbert. Are we there yet?”

“I’m sorry, Your Majesty. I’m trying my best, but it’s not that easy…”

Logan closed his eyes tightly in response and had no choice but to make a decision.

The act of drinking the blood of a living creature.

Normally, it was natural to be reluctant.

“Eat quickly! Can’t you see my face?! You’re better!”

However, at the man’s continued urging, the mother and daughter closed their eyes tightly and drank the deer skin.

“Ugh!”

The young daughter, unable to hold back her nausea, vomited once, but in the end, both of them drank the entire bowl of deer skin. .

“Stay here for a moment. I’ll have to watch for half a day. Rest in peace.”

How could they be comfortable in front of the king, even though he

told them to rest in peace? The man and his family had no choice but to stay in the barracks, restless.

But after just half a day,

the blush on the family’s faces was noticeably gone.

And Logan . It was only then that I was able to gain confidence.

“Okay! Put out an announcement throughout the kingdom! Capture all the deer in the country and send them to Raftan Territory!”

“Yes! “Your Majesty!”

The moment when the knights, who saw the result with their own eyes, energetically repeated it.

The people who were most happy were the therapists who watched the process together with extremely nervous expressions.

“Wahahahah!”

“You did it! Gilbert did it!”

They cheered. Looking at the therapists, Logan was also able to breathe a sigh of relief for the first time in a long time.
