To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 205
Episode 205: Salvation for me (2) When her
body was freed, she immediately stood up and stepped back.
‘Certainly… He healed the disease to the point of losing consciousness. As you said, it wouldn’t be strange if he really died. But…’
The disbelief that came from going through so many things so far didn’t make it easy to trust others.
How should I explain the bursting beads on a loose necklace?
As she continued to cast complicated glances at the necklace, Ray looked at him and misunderstood.
‘As expected, it was an important item… Maybe it was something like a keepsake from a relative.’
If it is a memento of only one parent, the sadness will be indescribable.
What can I do though? It’s already broken.
It would be nice to at least get one (?) the same thing later.
Maybe she’ll hate it though.
“Go back.”
A cold voice came out of her burnt mouth.
It is not what she wants to engage in an all-out war against a vigilante armed with mighty force.
So I thought it best to send it back somehow.
Ray made a serious expression.
‘The necklace must have upset her a lot.’
The conflicting opinions of the two did not show agreement until the end.
In the end, Ray, overcome with guilt, began to do something.
“Wait a minute.”
He sat down, grabbed the necklace, and pulled out a small jewel from his bosom.
It’s like an emergency fund that I had in case of emergency, but I didn’t expect it to be used so usefully.
He traced the magic formula of the broken marbles one by one with only the feeling of his hands.
In the first place, a material with strong hardness like a jewel becomes a good medium when making magic tools.
That’s why it was much easier to work with than mana orbs.
Every time I groped through my memory to recover a marble I had resisted, I had strange thoughts.
‘…huh? This… isn’t it like a redemption magic formula…?’
Somehow, there is a side that is very similar to the trick when expressing the hold.
I’m not sure why he’s wearing such a useless artifact, but it must be precious to the person concerned.
It was wrapped around my neck so much that the leather was worn out.
Engraving the magic circle was simple.
It’s a hold magic I’ve always used, so I’m very familiar with it.
Rey, who was very excited with a happy heart, blew mana into the jewel as if he had heard a miracle.
If an artifact merchant had even seen the process, they would have insisted on signing a contract right away.
As a result, the high level of math skills learned from reading Aira’s books were contained in a small jewel.
A jewel that has been subjected to magic that is much stronger than the imprint meets the necklace and creates a fantastic collaboration.
A lot of the upper part of the necklace was slightly cut off from the leather.
Then it was no longer long enough to be worn around the neck.
I’m sorry, but what can I do? I should be comforted by something I can wear as a bracelet.
This is the best you can do for yourself.
For a moment, she sat down and stared blankly at him at work.
Ray approached her.
She was finally able to come to her senses when she manually filled her wrist with a slave seal containing a grotesquely gloomy restraint spell.
“Sorry for breaking it. This is my own apology, so please accept it.”
As she speaks, she smiles like a pumpkin flower.
On one side, ‘measured by eye and it fits perfectly!’ He said the same thing, but it was so nasty that I wanted to beat him to death.
“Aaaaaaa!”
A grievous cry fills the room.
I thought I was freed, but I became a slave again.
It’s such a strong ban that I can’t even dare to lift it.
If this is how it was made, I can assure you that even a royal mage will not be able to solve it.
Well done. He is a very invincible craftsman.
Blood-red light spilled from her distorted face, unable to see properly.
‘I must kill… before the master and servant’s mark is manifested!’
She activated mana in her body.
The moment you try to bounce your feet off the ground.
“I heard that the necklace has a rather complicated magic on it? It took me a while to recover. If you pour in mana, it will probably be activated right away…”
Before the end of the words, a powerful magic formula containing Ray’s mana is activated.
Spells appeared on both palms and neck, bringing unforgettable pain.
“Aww…! Ugh…!”
“You have an impatient personality.”
obviously a madman
“This… you bastard wouldn’t mind chewing on this…! Aagh!”
I thought I was used to the pain.
Along with bad memories, the pain that makes you lose consciousness approaches.
Memories of losing parents on the battlefield.
The memory of being enslaved for the first time.
Until now, even the memory of having to move around the battlefield.
Tears flow down the corners of the eyes whose boundaries are unknown due to the remnants of burns.
Thuk-tuk-
By that point, Ray also noticed that things weren’t going the way he wanted.
A strange feeling, as if the gears were oddly out of alignment.
“…This is a bit strange…”
He quickly suppressed the mana flowing from the bracelet.
It was mana that became more powerful with the power of the magic circle, but it was possible to suppress it lightly.
However, it could not be helped that her consciousness, even a little bit, was lightly blown away by the shock.
It seems that the manifestation of artifacts such as garbage cans that are tightly suppressed by the so-called trash magic that is
not necessary by suppressing mana safely has finally stopped, but the problem lies ahead.
“What shall I do with this…”
I muttered, scratching my head, but honestly, I don’t understand exactly what the situation is.
At a rough guess, I think I made a mistake.
That’s a big mistake on a slightly larger scale.
He wouldn’t even guess.
The manifestation of magic, thought to have stopped by suppressing mana, had already ended, and the contract between the master and servant had already been concluded.
* * *
“Mmmmmm…”
The sun was rising when she woke up again.
After a good night’s sleep after a long time, she stretched herself.
After a while, however, he realizes what just happened and jumps up straight away.
There was a polite young man waving his hand smirkingly.
“Did you sleep well?”
Did you sleep well?
Yes, I slept very well.
I don’t know what kind of life awaits me as a slave!
He shrugs his shoulders and expresses his anger, but if you call it rebellion, that’s all.
It’s not like you can’t touch the planting of the new owner.
No matter what anyone says, as long as the formulas on both palms do not disappear, the imprint of the master and servant is in a state of being.
If so, her honest feeling was that she wanted to at least save her life.
“what’s your name?”
“does not exist.”
“no? Then, can you tell us a little about the circumstances leading up to coming here? Of course, if you don’t mind.”
‘Aww! Why am I to you!’
Contrary to what I thought, the words that came out of my mouth came out smoothly thanks to the imprint of the master and servant.
It was unintentional for Ray, though.
“…I lost my parents on the battlefield.”
“…”
“When the war stopped, I made a grave to bury my parents with my own two hands.”
The past she wanted to hide poured out of her mouth one by one.
It was a disgraceful and painful story that I had never told anyone, so it was painful to tell it and I even shed tears.
The long life history was dug up in just enough time to drink a cup or two of tea.
Ray spoke in a low-pitched voice.
“It’s been a tough life.”
“…”
That’s right.
It wasn’t a past history that could be expressed with words that couldn’t even form a sentence, but it wasn’t a life that had any meaning, so I couldn’t do it even if I wanted to refute it.
As he listened to her story, he learned what the necklace and beads were and what he had done to her.
“sorry. All I can say is this.”
“…”
Likewise, no answer comes back.
Is it because he has laid out his life to someone for the first time?
Tears welled up in his eyes.
The sorrow and suffering of the absurdity of the world, the despair of not being able to reach out and ask for help anywhere. And for the first time, I felt relieved.
Many complex emotions are intertwined and create indescribable thoughts.
I couldn’t put it all together and put it into words, so tears just fell down my curved cheeks drop by drop.
“Cry as much as you want to cry.”
“….”
He doesn’t make a single sound of crying out of his mouth until the end.
But why is it that the silent crying feels more sorrowful than the open crying?
His ugly face with burns and cuts, and his body, which looked thin at first glance, but showed muscles and scars everywhere, were fragmentary proofs of how severe the hardships had been.
My heart is very weak.
At least I wanted to help if I could help.
‘If it’s Iriel, I’ll be able to fix the burn.’
She is a woman who shows herself astonishingly talented.
Although she sometimes grumbles and messes around, her true nature, which demonstrates her divine power, is indeed a vessel suitable for a saintess.
Ray stood up from his seat.
He reached out his hand to her who was sitting in her seat.
“…would you like to get some fresh air?”
* * *
Hoping to go outside to get some fresh air, the place he went to was in the middle of countless troops.
It was also a place where the Holy Knights of the Holy Kingdom, not ordinary troops, radiated momentum.
“Hey…!”
“It’s okay, so don’t be too vigilant. I just want to help in any way.”
“I’m done…! After all, this is what life is like!”
“Are you really okay with that?”
Unlike the eyes of the dead fish I encountered at first, I ask with eyes that feel weight.
“I am…”
He hesitated to say, glancing at the jewel on his wrist, before Ray broke it.
Caan-!
Fragments of broken jewels scattered around.
“I hope this will convey that I am sincere.”
The jewel, the medium, explodes and the imprint of the master and servant who lost their power disappears.
By that time, she was able to meet his eyes as well.
Because it felt sincere.
‘Are you really trying to help me?’
Since she had never received help in her life, questions continued one after another.
As a result, two thoughts were fighting each other in her head.
‘Is it okay to have expectations?’
‘Don’t believe me. All humans except me are enemies. Haven’t you come to your senses after all this time?’
‘But… no one has ever intervened in my affairs to this extent, right?’
‘Do you even think so? Actually, you just want to compromise with yourself and trust him, right? I’m a coward who cowardly hid behind and closed my heart with a semblance of distrust. Even if I speak coldly, if someone isn’t by my side, I can’t stand it because it’s painful. is not it?’
A cold thought of his own pierced his heart.
To accept the help of others that you have denied so far.
It is the way of life that has been lived so far.
Because it is the same as denying myself.
