To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 345
Episode 345 Witch Beasts (1)
What kind of countermeasures are you talking about all of a sudden?
the woman spoke up.
“There is a variable. The previously reported saint seems to have reappeared.”
If it is a saint, he is said to have overpowered the sword master of the empire.
However, even at her words, the old man and the men reacted with disdain.
The old man tapped on the table and spoke.
“If it gets in the way, I’ll just get rid of it.”
“If you can’t do that much, you don’t deserve to stand by him.”
It’s easy to say that it’s a pierced mouth.
The woman sighed.
“The power of the saint is stronger than we know. If you are not prepared, you will be disappointed.”
“If my guy was strong, how strong would he be? I’ve heard rumors that he subdued a necromancer, but that’s impossible as a human being. That is to say, it is nonsense.”
Shake your hands and speak.
Certainly, she herself believed that, too, until she faced the saint.
However, he was a monster in front of his eyes.
Even after destroying the Aura Blade in one blow and dealing with over 20 swords, he showed no sign of exhaustion.
It was enough to give goosebumps to the god who took the lives of thousands of monsters with just one word.
she swallowed.
“Actually… I met the saint before calling the meeting.”
When I spoke with difficulty, the old man looked at me with an interesting face.
“Oh, how was it to meet you in person? Wasn’t it bigger than I thought?”
At the old man’s words, the woman recalling the previous battle hardened her expression.
“…I lost seven of my men in that battle to just one.”
What to do with troops.
It was too many to lose in a single battle.
Moreover, she used the expression ‘one person’ rather than saying that she fought with anyone.
The man who had been quietly listening to their conversation next to him wriggled his sword.
“No way…”
“Yes. He is a saint.”
Unbelievable, the old man pounded the table again.
“But that’s about as much as any one of us here can do. So how long did it take for the saint to deal with that much? Did it take a week?”
At the seemingly urgent words of the old man, the woman shook her head.
Accordingly, the old man’s expression also hardens.
“…three days?”
Excited—
“How long did it take you to deal with that much force!”
As the impatient old man shouted, the woman raised her beautifully outstretched index finger.
“Could it be over in half a day?”
At that question, the woman shook her head again.
“…Not even a minute has passed. When I came to my senses, more than half of my soldiers were dead.”

Ray, who ordered Eucliwood to investigate the dark forces, was making plans for the future.
At that time, he felt the mana flow in the mana crystal ball he had kept in his arms.
When you take it out on the desk, the first thing that catches your eye is Hafman’s tear-stained face.
What the hell was wrong with using the mana crystal orb, which was said to be for emergency use?
he asked with a puzzled face.
“what’s the matter?”
– Danju! It’s a big deal!
“So what is it?”
Responding to Ray’s question, Hafman explained everything he had done so far.
From getting rid of all the surrounding merchant houses to taking the ledger there.
Ray, who was listening to the story, clicked his tongue.
One useless ledger made matters worse.
It was clear that they had fallen into a trap they had dug.
Now that they will be watching whatever they do, moving becomes more difficult.
Halfman cautiously asked Ray, who was pondering what to do.
– Now what? Shall I hit you with money?
It was a truly half-hearted answer.
However, looking at it now, that was also a good method.
If they recklessly push forward with their endless financial power, those who can’t keep up with the financial power of the upper half of the top half will not be able to stop it even if they know it.
What’s more, now that I didn’t know their potential, I had no choice but to move.
“Keep moving the top as before. All we have now is money.”
The loyalist Harpman cast a look of respect at the dignified words.
– He is also the lord. I really want to resemble that spirit that only knows money.
I can’t tell if I’m praising or cursing.
But at least to Hafman, it would have been a compliment that would be second to none in the world.
Ray cautioned.
“Move while being careful not to break out in a war with neighboring countries. If the embers get bigger than this, we can’t stop it.”
The continent’s atmosphere was still brutal.
It was temporarily blocked by the upper part of the half-man, but if the dam that was blocked here burst, war would undoubtedly break out throughout the continent.
Hafman also knows how important it is to subdue the fire in advance.
No matter how much the body of the top half of the half man has grown considerably, it is impossible for a single top unit to survive in a war that took place on a continental scale.
Halfman lowered his head.
– Keep in mind I will keep in mind again.

Two mercenaries accepted the request and headed to the dungeon in the nearby mountains.
“It is quite dark.”
“Light.”
At the words of the man, the fellow next to him cast a spell, and a bright light came on in the dark cave.
inside the dungeon.
It is a place where monsters live and sometimes requests from adventurers for pioneering.
The difficulty of the quest is not high, and if you are lucky, you can take money or magic tools, so it has a reputation as a pretty good quest among adventurers and mercenaries.
The man patted the sticky wall and groaned.
“Um… that’s strange. I wonder what kind of monsters inhabit this environment…”
The goblins and kobolds, who are mainly embedded in dungeons, do not create such a sticky environment.
However, they did not have their own unique village to suspect orcs.
The robed wizard scanned the ground.
I could feel the water on my fingertips.
he said casually.
“Maybe water was flowing?”
Sometimes a stream runs through the dungeon.
If you think so, the dampness of the ground is fully explained.
However, the man’s expression was not clear.
“…Anyway, this dungeon seems very different from the dungeons we know. I think it would be better to give up the request now.”
“…This is a difficult quest. Even if you go back now, don’t you even have money to stay at an inn? Besides, you know better than me that it is difficult to get a dungeon request like this even if you wait a year.”
“That’s true… but it doesn’t feel good.”
“When did we get a referral with a feeling? Brother, just go.”
The man finally nodded at the words of his younger brother who had worked together for a long time.
“…okay. But if you feel the slightest danger…”
“Don’t worry. Running away in times of danger isn’t a mercenary’s specialty.”
The man also agreed as he pounded his chest and boasted.
As his younger brother said, when he went back like this, he had no money, so he would have to be homeless again.
It wasn’t bad to try an adventure at least once.
They went deeper into the dungeon.
As if the moisture up until now had been a joke, the inside of the dungeon was all wet and damp.
It is such an environment that it is difficult to even breathe.
Naturally, both of them breathed heavily.
“Heo Eok… brother… the aisle is getting wider…”
They had hope.
In general, the widening of the passage in a dungeon is the passage leading to the exit or the place where the monsters collect items.
It might be lined with gold coins and magic tools.
When I thought about it, I felt as if I had lost strength.
How long did you walk like that?
A huge cavity large enough for five people to pass through appeared before their eyes.
There, a few silver coins, which they had hoped for, fell to the ground.
When the young man in the robe tried to run away, forgetting all the hardships he had suffered so far, the man stopped him.
“Wait and see. Something is strange.”
There was a silver coin in front of his eyes, but the young man slightly frowned at the man blocking it.
“What do you keep saying is weird?”
“Think carefully. I haven’t encountered a single monster on the way here. Don’t you think it’s strange that this place is definitely a dungeon?”
Even at the man’s words, the young man only poked out his lips.
“I must have been lucky.”
“To think it was pure luck… there’s definitely something out there.”
he looked around.
Looking at the moss-strewn walls and the unmatched silence of the cave, it feels like all the hairs on your body stand out.
He had been through countless battles and was familiar with this sensation.
‘Die.’
I have a bad feeling about it.
The senses that had saved her from countless life threats so far were telling her to get out of here quickly.
As the man was restless, the young man shook his hand.
“Stop it! If you have that, you can overcome this damn hardship of life!”
“Stop!”
As the young man ran out, gloomy mana flowed from behind.
No matter how low-circle they are, wizards are sensitive to mana.
When the young man looked back, a huge monster with three black horns was charging at him.
“Brother Tongue! Avoid!”
At that cry, the man quickly drew out his sword.
Kaaaang-!
As soon as it touched the monster’s horn, the new model of the man flew away.
“Aww!”
It was a short car.
If the reaction had been delayed even a little, the upper body would have exploded.
‘I couldn’t even properly feel the approaching momentum.’
A cold sweat ran down his back.
At that time, the young man who finished the chant in a hurry cast his magic.
“Fire ball!”
A fireball the size of a fist flew at the monster.
However, in a cave full of moisture, flame-type magic was not a good choice.
The fire in the crater went out before it even reached the monster.
“Kreurreuk…”
Rather, it only made the monster angry.
As the young man shivered, the man shouted as he thrust a sword into the monster’s jaw.
“Run away!”
“Ha, but…!”
“I can get out of here on my own! You too, get out first and call someone!”
The man smiled as if to reassure him.
How can you not know that you are a wizard?
The gap between the man and the monster was significant.
Unlike the monsters, who do not take any damage even when attacked, the man was close to his limit just by blocking one shot at a time.
In such a situation, you are pretending to be strong to reassure yourself.
The young man bit his lip.
“I will definitely… I will definitely call people. Please wait…!”
He threw off the robe he was wearing and kicked the ground.
