To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 166

Episode 166 Lessian Empire (1)

The journey to the Empire was not difficult.

What kind of crazy monster would touch the wagon escorted by one Holy Knight?

The momentum they emitted was also strong and the monsters never attacked first, probably because of the huge number.

As a result, it has become a safer route than ever before.

Ray took out the magic book he had brought from Proxia.

In order to cancel the magic book’s locking magic, it was necessary to understand the magic formula applied to this book.

But only the person who cast the spell will know.

Unlike normal locking magic, this locking magic has a slightly unusual structure.

To put it bluntly, what was caught in this magic book was not the lock magic that is now widely known.

It is constructed as a magic circle, locked in a magical way, and maintained with enormous mana.

It was for that reason that no matter how smart he was, he couldn’t unlock it easily.

I was ignorant at times like this, but there was a good way.

Due to the nature of lock magic that unlocks in stages, it will be unlocked if you use all the magic formulas once.

But that would take a really long time.

At worst, it could take decades.

However, if the person doing it was Ray, the story was different.

While solving the locking magic one by one, he understood the magic formula as it was.

Every time one is solved, his level of understanding increases and the speed at which he solves it also increases.

Substituting it into the magic circle, the magic formula was set in a fairly specific frame, so it was easy to solve the more you solve one.

However, there were countless locks to unlock.

Ray muttered while holding the book as he was quickly getting rid of it.

“This will never be over today.”

There is no sign of ending.

The speed at which they were unlocked increased, but there were still more locks to be unlocked than that.

Still, he didn’t give up.

Because I firmly believe that there is movement-type magic in this!

I don’t want practical magic like teleport.

Even if it was just a fly, I was confident that I would have fun!

Fly, the only flying magic among all magic, is a magic of 5 circles.

In addition, humans boasted a high mana consumption that they could not even use.

Also, how difficult it was to obtain a magic book, even the saint himself could not reach it.

Of course, if you are in the Holy Land, you can get enough.

As a result, there was no other way than to learn from Aira.

Of course, if you’re going to learn, you’ll learn to teleport.

However, it would be impossible unless you go to the elven village yourself.

Teleport isn’t the name of the dog next door, and it’s not something you can learn easily in such a short period of time.

Ray, who was working hard to release the seal (?) of the magic book in the wagon, eventually stopped working at night.

The mindless labor of unlocking during the day and sleeping at night was repeated.

* * *

It has been nine days since I left the holy kingdom.

According to Heor, it is about time to arrive at the border of the Lessian Empire.

Perhaps he was right, and half a day went by. Well-dressed guards greeted the wagon along with the large wall.

The guards spoke as if they were a bit nervous at the seemingly splendid appearance of the wagon and the tremendous majesty of the Holy Knights.

“What are you here for?”

“I came to the call of the imperial family from the Holy Land.”

As Heor spoke, he held out a letter bearing the emperor’s seal.

The guard who was looking at it said straight inside.

“Open the gates! These are precious people!”

With his words, the gates of the castle, which had only been firm, opened wide.

“Thank you.”

With a light greeting, Heor led the Holy Knights and entered the castle of the Lessian Empire.

Ray also enjoyed the scenery outside from inside the carriage.

Although the architectural style was similar to that of Silia, there were clear differences.

The materials used to build the buildings seem to be different, and it seems that the magic tools are active in the city center.

If they were used as weapons, this castle would be no different from a fortress.

he admired lightly.

The standard of living was different from that of the Kingdom of Silia and the Holy Kingdom.

In fact, unlike other kingdoms that are continuously threatened by monsters, the Lessian Empire was able to live without worrying about monsters, even if it was a small village.

The walls built in the empire not only protected the castle, but also the villages beyond it.

Ray poked his face out from inside the carriage and looked around.

Even the air seems different.

“Isn’t this the empire that has been so rumored?”

arrived in the empire

On the way there, he never collided with a monster.

As soon as they entered the castle, they headed for the ecliptic without rest.

Because Ray urged them on.

He was truly terrifying, displaying the unique emotion of modern Koreans, the so-called quick, quick (?).

After entering the ecliptic, it would be okay to take a little break before going, but for some reason, he kept shouting “hurry, hurry.”

However, it was only natural that he was in a hurry.

They may not know it, but the current emperor is in critical condition.

Since it’s a matter of security for the kingdom and the empire, we can’t tell you, so we have no choice but to hurry!

Of course, it is understandable that the Holy Knights are having a hard time.

The journey was so long and there was no time to rest properly.

It is normal to feel tired because the fatigue of being homeless for 9 days must have accumulated all over the body.

If there is a person who is not hard, it will be only Heor.

He was very smiled throughout the journey at the fact that he was with the saint.

I almost went into the procedure inadvertently because I was showing symptoms of neurological facial muscle stiffness.

It was only after half a day passed beyond the castle located on the border that they were able to enter the ecliptic.

* * *

A national sovereignty struggle is taking place within the imperial palace.

As a result, my nerves were always sharp.

It’s not uncommon for someone to try to assassinate someone who covets the successor’s position in order to catch the pod.

Even so, it was quiet on the outside, so if a stranger saw it, there would be no problem.

The current most likely candidate for emperor was Prince Il, and Prince Lee was glaring at the next.

However, if only successor candidates are fighting to seize power, that is not the case either.

One princess, three princesses, and four princesses are walking a so-called tightrope, each choosing a candidate.

If you walk the tightrope wrong, you will probably be executed by a later emperor.

It is they who do not hesitate to assassinate to avoid it.

Of course, the princes learn swordsmanship from an early age. That doesn’t mean you’re not being swayed like that.

If someone close to you stabs you with a sword from behind, you have no choice but to be helpless unless you become a sword master.

As a result, the current princes’ nerves were more sensitive than anyone else’s.

This prince was ‘pretending’ to ride the atmosphere of the imperial family and have sharp nerves.

For some reason, Prince Oh, who has been weak since childhood, is coveting the throne of the emperor.

What he is aiming for is the Three Princes.

It’s not that threatening among its superiors, and it’s not far from the power structure either.

If he was aiming for it, Prince 3 was just the right prey for Prince Oh.

The wise three princes would not be unaware of this fact, but it was impossible for him to kill his brother.

Because he has a warmer heart than any other brothers he has ever seen.

Prince Lee decided that he had to protect only those three princes at all costs.

As a result, I naturally had to be cold, and I had to do anything skillfully.

Because the more you get away from the power structure, the means to protect your brother disappear one by one.

He opened the luxuriously decorated door.

There, Princess Il was sitting on the bed.

The prince lightly bowed his head.

“I heard you called.”

“okay. I just missed you.”

She got up from the bed and put her arms around his neck.

Even though their boats are different, it must be clear that they are brother and sister, but their actions look like they promised to get married.

As a Japanese princess, she is quite old.

She is about to turn 50, and she is in love with this prince.

That’s why she helped him to get this prince.

As a princess, the power she possesses is also the highest among all princesses.

She needed her strength to protect the three princes.

A smile bloomed from his cold face.

“I was just about to think of my sister, too.”

“Ho-ho-ho. Maybe we are destined.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he warmly embraced the princess.

she said slightly surprised.

“what’s the matter? Do everything you didn’t do today.”

As they hugged, his complexion, whose expression was hidden, went cold.

‘What is fate? This damn woman.’

He talks well about the subject of inducing the three princes to be targeted for assassination.

Perhaps she noticed that she was covering the three princes.

One eye is a quick woman.

The hostage of the three princes, which was implicitly carried out between the two, restricted his actions.

So I had to act out a love that doesn’t even make me laugh like now.

As the princess’s face became more red, only frost hung over the prince’s face.

* * *

It wasn’t until late in the evening that they were able to arrive at the imperial palace.

A well-dressed middle-aged man greeted me at the gate as if he had been waiting.

“Meet the saint. My name is Count Ophel.”

“nice to meet you. I am Ray, the saint.”

“Humble your words. It is difficult to handle.”

“I am comfortable with this. Never mind.”

“…All right.”

Count Ophel looked around at the Order of the Holy Knights and shook his head.

“Sir, I am very rude and apologetic… but would you please move around?”

“What is that…!”

At Count Ophel’s request, Heor tried to shout something.

However, Ray covered his mouth.

“Everyone step back. You’ve worked hard, so please rest well in the annex.”

“Saint… I understand.”

Heor, who hesitated for a moment at his words, stepped back without objection.

He knows the strength of the saint.

So, you can back down to his command without hesitation.

If the saint had no strength, he would not have backed down so easily.

The Holy Knights lightly greeted Ray and followed the servants of the Empire to the annex.

Ray noticed Count Ophel’s intentions.

‘They probably want to hide the fact that the emperor is in bed as much as possible.’

I could understand.

Even if the position was reversed, the castle would have behaved the same as the empire.

Of course, the pope wouldn’t get sick.

Count Ophel lowered his head.

“Thank you for listening.”

“no. Rather than that, let’s go check the condition first.”

At his words, the count put on an expression that seemed to have relieved himself.

In fact, it was the Empire that was urgent.

Since the saint was tired, what if I asked him to rest for a bit?

Count Ophel quickly guided the matter in progress.

“Come Here”
