To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 123
Episode 123 Death of a Hero (1)
I managed to hold onto my drowsy spirit and evaded the monsters’ attacks.
Blood poured from his mouth again.
But there was no time to care about him.
It was because the monsters were trying to kill Ray, who was a hindrance.
It was not easy to see the monsters attacking with tremendous speed and elasticity.
Of course, if you were in the same physical state as usual, you could annihilate them in seconds, but now you can’t use mana in such a place.
Due to the burden of the mana road, he is unable to use heal.
An army of monsters that seemed to reach thousands poured into Ray.
Kwaaaang-!
An ogre came to his head with a club he was holding.
Ray, who lightly dodged with just a slight twist, immediately tore the ogre’s body in two.
“Kuaaa!”
However, killing one didn’t change anything.
The number of opponents counts in the thousands.
How could such an outrageous number of monsters be in the academy area?
There was probably only one way to summon this amount of monsters at once.
‘Kuh… Is it a teleport gate cast with a magic circle?’
Rey hurriedly raised her sword to block the attack.
It’s just a little while ago, but my body is too heavy after being eroded by the magic circle’s mana.
There is also a drowsiness that makes you feel like crazy, but the mana rod is hot like burning.
Is this what it feels like to burn your blood vessels? My mouth is dry and my whole body stings whenever I move.
But it is impossible not to move.
Even now, the monsters are still coming.
Maybe if I keep going like this, I won’t be able to kill much and I’ll fall asleep.
If that happens, the refugees will also be killed by the monsters.
Silien, guarded by Aira, will be safe, but if so, the remaining Gehel will be in a sea of fire.
Ray let out a small sigh.
I have no choice now.
At least all of these monsters had to be killed so that the refugees could live.
Ray began to gather an enormous amount of mana.
“Keueueuueuk ….”
The pain felt in the mana road was quite serious.
Blood began to flow not only from the corners of his mouth, but also from his eyes.
One cannot stop.
The mana that Ray had collected began to gather into the sword again.
Ung-ung-ung-
An enormous density of mana to the extent that it emits a resonant sound.
That much mana went in, but rather than increasing their size, the swords began to clump together, and rather, they gradually decreased in size.
Then an arrow began to fly behind Ray’s back.
Wedge-!
It was an arrow shot by a kobold.
However, if you can’t concentrate even a little here, the mana will go its own way.
Ray had no choice but to endure it with his body.
Chow-!
An arrowhead was lodged in the stomach, causing terrible pain.
He shuts his mouth tightly and holds back his screams.
Ray brought the mana-filled sword to his waist. Then, grab the handle of the sword with the right hand.
It was the most appropriate posture to shake off all mana at once.
At the enormous consumption of mana, Ray gritted his teeth as if they were about to break.
His sword drew a parabola and came out at a tremendous speed.
Then, according to the sword path, an aura was released.
“Quaaaaagh!”
“Koooooo!”
“Keeeeek!”
Wow!
The aura passed by cutting the bodies of the monsters as they were.
From large monsters in the front line to small monsters in the back line.
The aura, which had not lost its power, disappeared with all its might only after cutting down the buildings behind it.
Then there were only a few hundred monsters left that had reached thousands.
They were monsters who felt threatened and succeeded in avoiding the aura.
He looked at Ray, who was panting as if all the remaining monsters were dying in front of him.
As Ray, he wanted everyone to die in one blow, but he felt despair at the situation where hundreds of people were left behind.
The current state of the body was not that much talk.
The arrowhead was stuck in the stomach and was dangling, and the mana rod expanded as if it would burst at any moment.
Blood pooled in his eyes, making it difficult to see, but in the meantime, drowsiness poured out.
“Cuck!”
Ray coughed up a handful of blood.
It seems too overworked.
Even now, because of the use of mana, the erosion of the magic circle was allowed to some extent.
As a result, Ray’s fruity scent became stronger.
The monsters rushed at Ray as if they were possessed by the scent.
It was not easy to counterattack even while lifting the sword and shedding the thick attacks of the large monsters.
However, just holding on like this is not going to help anything.
Even those few hundred monsters would have to be difficult for the Seongguk to deal with.
Rey grabbed the sword that was blocking the attack and cut the troll in front of her.
The troll collapsed without a moment’s resistance at the clean action of cutting the wooden line in an instant.
Then a sword flew from the side.
Before he could react, the sword cut Ray’s arm.
“Aaaagh!”
I felt a sharp pain in my arm.
Thuk-
The powerful sword completely cut off Ray’s arm.
The only opponent who cut off his arm was an orc.
I laughed out loud at that sight.
Ray let go of his sword and cut off the breath of the line, including the orcs.
However, he also knew.
If the war of attrition continued like this, he would lose.
The desire to run away right now was like a chimney.
Originally, I planned to go back after learning only the medicine I wanted.
However, he unexpectedly became very attached to the Holy Kingdom.
There are precious people and there are people who look forward to it.
Memories of having a baptism after coming to Selonia, or laughing while biting into an apple at a market stall. There are memories of hanging out with the students at the academy, and there are days of staring blankly at the sky.
Seongguk was a place with such treasure-like memories.
I couldn’t possibly watch the people there get ravaged by monsters.
Ray started collecting mana again.
“Huuk… Whouk… No matter what… I will protect you…” He
breathed heavily and put the sword to his waist.
The mana that embroidered the air responded to Ray and began to gather at his call.
The sword was brought out again.
Wedge-!
An aura that tore apart the air with a wave of destruction slashed the monsters with precision.
Kkeek.
I could hear their screams and there were only a few monsters left that were in the hundreds.
However, they are also small monsters.
Terrified, they ran away looking at Ray.
“Huh… Huh…”
Lay, who didn’t even have the strength to hold the sword, breathed out on the spot.
Now it seems that I can’t even push the mana of the magic circle.
As the mana to fight was gradually disturbed, the mana of the magic circle rushed at him excitedly.
Ray didn’t even think to stop the mana from encroaching on his body.
His right arm had been cut off and he was lying on the ground, with an arrow stuck in his stomach.
Thanks to the one more use of the sword just now, the mana rod was torn apart.
Blood flowed from his eyes, he couldn’t even open his eyes, and he couldn’t even move his fingers, so he couldn’t even get out of the magic circle.
That’s why I couldn’t stop the mana flowing.
Hana Ray was satisfied with stopping the monsters.
The magic circle’s mana encroached on Ray’s body.
Kwagwagwa-
Enormous mana flowed through Ray’s body.
Ray tried to hold on, but it was impossible to hold on with such a tired body.
Eventually, his body fell to the ground.
* * *
Refugees named Ira, who watched the refugees from above and killed the monsters that crawled out one by one, came down to the ground when they arrived in Shillien.
Now, the remaining refugees were to be kept in Shillien.
Iriel was in charge of the support materials and troops, so measures should be taken by now.
Aira immediately started drawing the magic circle as soon as the job requested by Ray was over.
Swish – Swish –
She embroidered the air at a very high speed and memorized the starting language.
“Teleport gate.”
Uh-uh-
A small gap made of mana has opened.
As soon as Aira passed through it, a desolate landscape greeted her.
The buildings were all demolished and the sand dust had settled for some time.
Besides, what about the corpses of the monsters filling the surroundings?
The surrounding area, stained with the blood of monsters, was a landscape of hell.
What the hell happened here?
Before long, a corpse began to come into view in front of Aira’s eyes.
Her white hair ate a lot of sand and dust, and a long arrow protruded from her back.
His hand had been severed, and his face was covered with cold, hardened blood.
Looking at that scene, Ira felt like her heart sank.
Because he resembled the one he knew well.
Her mark reacted to him.
Feeling the presence of a small amount of mana, the sign was telling.
The person you are looking for is right in front of you.
“Ah… ah…”
Aira sat down on the spot.
Even half a day ago, we had been laughing and chatting.
But not now.
Tears welled up at the sight of him lying there, pretending to be worse than a corpse.
Why didn’t you run away!
For what reason did he fight until he was completely wrecked!
If it was Rey, she thought, she would be able to pull herself out of this situation.
But why did you fight back like an idiot!
Is it because the magic circle is activated? I don’t know what kind of magic it is, but is there any magic that can drive him to this extent?
The sweet fruity scent began to tickle her nose.
This scent was a scent Ira would never forget.
For twenty years, I lived only by smelling this scent.
How can you forget yourself? That mark of curse.
The incense flowed from Ray.
That alone was enough for her to infer.
What was this magic circle for?
Aira realized that the mark she had engraved on Ray continued to react.
That meant he was still alive.
She hurriedly placed her hand on Ray’s body.
Pull out the arrow and match the right hand that was cut off.
Aira’s long hair draped over Ray’s chest.
She turned mana and manifested magic.
“Heal!”
Hwaaak-!
The same blue mana as Ray spread around and began to heal Ray’s body.
The wound caused by the arrow heals cleanly. His face, which had been covered in blood, was also clearly being restored.
However, the severed hand could not be attached.
It will. Healing magic is not a panacea.
Rather, divine magic was more specialized in healing.
Tears flowed as I looked at the horrendous figure and Ray, who didn’t even think about getting up.
Aira carried Ray on her back with her small body and immediately drew a magic circle in the air.
Even this severed arm could not be attached with her own strength.
So, I had to find the best person in that field.
Aira remembered Iriel’s existence and teleported to her location.
