To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 276
Episode 276: Vampires with No Blood or Tears (1)
Vampires, like humans, have cliques.
Those who follow the pure blood of Vermat and those who cannot compare to those who follow Tiffria, who are also pure blood.
The two factions have been fighting for over two hundred years.
The reason they were able to fight for such a long time was that Vermat and Tiffria were half siblings.
Those sitting around the table raised their voices and chattered.
Among them was Vermata.
He raised his pale white finger and pointed at Tiffria.
“It would be difficult if the head of the household was not decided soon. In the first place, I, who is more pure-blooded, should have the right of succession. I don’t know why you keep trying to get in my way.”
“Your brother only thinks of harassing humans. I cannot see it.”
At that, Vermatt shook his head.
“I don’t understand. Man is nothing more than his daily bread. To borrow the words of humans, to us they are like domesticated animals. Why are you trying to protect such brutes?”
“Clearly we cannot live without their blood. But they are different from livestock. Doesn’t your older brother know?”
“I don’t know. I don’t understand why you wrap people around. Can you afford to protect others when you can’t even take care of your own body?”
Looking at Tiffria wiping the area around her mouth, she coldly purrs.
Then she hurriedly turned her head.
“Excuse me. But… I will fight. I will not let go of the right of succession until my older brother thinks of humans again.”
“do whatever you want. Your body is slowly breaking down anyway. It wouldn’t be bad to enjoy the leisure while waiting for it.”
Vermata, who was looking down at Tiffria, stood up from the table and turned around.
When he left Daejeon, the vampires who were nearby also followed.
The meeting ended in a cold atmosphere as usual.

After completing Wira’s request, Ray immediately returned to the adventurer’s guild and announced the completion of the request.
After a few minutes of confirmation, the guild acknowledged the completion of the request.
When I came out of the guild, Lacia was staring at someone.
I moved my gaze after her.
Then there was a woman squatting and complaining of pain.
It’s not normal to see them suffocating and exhaling harshly.
As Ray tried to approach him urgently, Lacia stopped him.
“Older brother, I don’t think he is human. Doesn’t look like an elf either. It’s dangerous, so don’t approach…”
Before she could finish, Ray shook his head.
“It doesn’t matter if it’s a human or a dragon. If there is a patient in pain, that is where I belong.”
“Somehow I thought you would say that.”
Lacia, who had been blocking him, backed off meekly.
No matter how dangerous it is, how dangerous is it?
It would be fine as long as the dragon didn’t appear.
Ray approached the woman and examined her body.
Other than shortness of breath, there seemed to be no serious symptoms.
“I don’t think it’s asthma because the wheezing isn’t severe.”
He made the woman comfortable on the bed and opened her prayer.
Then, the woman, who had been breathing heavily, seemed to have become more comfortable, and gradually calmed down.
How many minutes was it like that?
The woman, whose breathing returned to normal, stood up shyly and greeted me.
“thank you. Thanks to you, I calmed down.”
“I was surprised when he suddenly collapsed. What happen?”
His complexion darkened at Ray’s question.
“I’m used to it now, but there are times when my heart hurts like crazy once or twice.”
chest hurts
Something connected in his head.
There are many respiratory problems that are accompanied by chest pain.
However, he ended up making a pretty detailed guess with only a few clues.
‘If it was a lung disease, dyspnea would not have ended at this level. Perhaps the shortness of breath is a by-product of the extreme stress.’
Then there are few answers.
Among them, he thought the most powerful was heart disease.
Heart pain, in severe cases, is intense enough to stop the brain for a moment.
If breathing difficulties due to shock came in the process, the current situation also makes sense.
As Ray struggled with a serious expression, the woman waved her hand with a pale smile.
“You don’t have to worry so much. Because this is my problem.”
As she spoke, her eyes began to turn red.
Ray had once felt this strange feeling.
When he was almost killed by monsters.
It is quite similar to the mana that the dhampirs spewed out at that time.
If you look at that, it must be that the woman in front of you is also a vampire.
Looking at the woman who was about to leave in a hurry to see if she had a vampiric desire, Ray threw a word as if passing by.
“Are you a vampire?”
With that one word, the atmosphere instantly turned chilly.
The woman turned her head and looked at Ray.
“yes?”
“I have seen a dhampir before. It’s a pretty unique mana, so I can’t forget it.”
“…What are you talking about?”
“There is no use trying to hide it. My eyes are already red. Haven’t you been vampiric for a while?”
At Ray’s words, the woman closed her eyes and said coldly.
“I only touched my eyes often. Thank you for your help, but stop speculating.”
However, despite his stubborn attitude, Ray did not back down.
“Does the pain come from the inside of your chest? you have heart problems If you don’t get treatment, there’s nothing strange if you die at any time.”
“…”
Ray shrugged as she looked at it with a look that would see all the oddities.
“The first pain just came. If I’m right, the second pain should come back in four hours. I assure you, the only people on this continent who can fix it are me and the saintess.”
The woman frowned at his words, which went beyond just herself and became arrogant.
Does Ji know what kind of saint he is?
“Excuse me.”
Juseomjuseom Packing her belongings, she left.
Lacia, who was looking at the woman leaving, looked up at Lay and said.
“Since my older brother said it, it must be certain. But how did you predict when the second pain would come?”
“For vampires, vampirism is an act of lubrication. If you don’t do that for a long time, your body starts to rust little by little. In particular, there is a problem with the coronary artery and heart vein in the heart area.”
Ray, who paused for a moment, continued.
“My guess is that the blood flowing there is clotted or the plaque made of fat in the coronary arteries is blocking the flow of blood. As the blood vessels narrow and the arteries begin to harden, it is natural that pain accompanies them. I just calculated the time from there for the blood to circulate through the coronary arteries and cause trouble again.”
Lacia was dumbfounded at her brother’s words, which seemed natural.
Who can count that!
Where is a madman who thinks with common sense and thinks of an invisible blood vessel like someone who has already seen it and calculates the next pain for it!
Whether or not he was aware of her complex feelings, Ray collapsed into his seat.
“He even examined me in detail. Now all we have to do is wait for the patient to come back on his feet.”
I couldn’t figure it out in my head at all.
* * *
A little more than four hours passed, and by the time I waited another thirty minutes.
A woman with a hardened expression walked from across the alley.
Approaching Ray, she didn’t even think to put down her luggage and started talking.
“How did you know?”
The words are so short that it is difficult to tell whether he is asking or arguing.
Ray grinned.
“Are you curious?”
“I asked how you knew.”
“I’m a little bit far-fetched about things like this.”
Just being sober doesn’t explain it at all.
She hadn’t believed him at all before, but when the pain really came on the 4th hour, she had no choice but to erase her doubts.
As much as the surprise outweighed the pain for a moment.
Now she has become quite serious.
“What you said earlier. How far is the truth?”
“So, have you been lied to until now? These are all words from the heart. That it’s not strange when you die, and that I’m the only one who can fix it.”
For a brief moment, her face lit up.
“Can it be cured?”
Ray scratched the back of his head.
“It can be cured. But that’s because it’s a bit of a difficult operation.”
How can you say that you need to open it to know the details?
However, the woman who interpreted his mind as ‘It’s hard, so pay for it’, nodded.
“it’s okay. Don’t worry about that.”
What are you not to worry about?
Before Ray had time to ask again, she spat out again.
“Please treat me. Cases will be satisfied.”
It’s a case and sleep, and he doesn’t need it.
It is only necessary to obtain prior consent to cut the chest.
Unlike her urgency, Ray calmed her down calmly.
“I can’t fix it right now. There are a few things I need to prepare too. And that’s not the problem.”
“What else is the problem?”
“Have you heard of the therapists? The kind of story that cuts open the flesh and takes out the intestines to treat it.”
It’s a rumor similar to a black magician, but there’s nothing wrong with it in a big way.
The woman nodded.
“I did listen. But there are quite a few successful cases…”
“That’s right. Unlike the clean treatment of priests and priests, the treatment of healers carries risks. In simple terms, you can say that I treat you by turning your stomach.”
Have you made up your mind? It’s a question.
Instead of answering, the woman looked directly at Ray.
There was no fear in their eyes.
The look in his eyes is as if he would do it if he could fix it even if it broke his heart.
What makes her so strong?
Ray took a deep breath and nodded.
“Then let’s try. I will tell you in advance, but it will hurt quite a bit.”
