To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 347

Episode 347 Reconciliation (1)

At that, Zeke muttered.

“For Seongguk to live, what do you mean…”

Seongguk is still enough to live on.

No, beyond simply being rich, even if the atmosphere on the continent isn’t good, it’s enough to not be swept away by it.

In other words, even if someone else goes to war, they don’t suffer much damage.

From the time there were no saints in the past, the Holy Kingdom that had accumulated power until now, even the Lessian Empire, was considered under their eyes.

But who the hell is there to drive the kingdom to destruction?

Looking at Zeke’s eyes full of questions, Ray spoke up.

“It is the same as in Proxia. There is a huge force aiming for the continent. I don’t know exactly what their purpose is, but they’re the ones who kill people as easily as stepping on a young ant. A lot of people will die if we leave it like this.”

At his words, Zeke paused for a moment.

He, who had only been standing around so far, sat down on the chair in front of Ray and opened his mouth in a low voice.

“But even so, it is too reckless for the Seongguk to declare war against the continent. No matter how many talents there are, it will be impossible to keep everyone in a situation where they are outnumbered.”

Zeke turned around and said.

It means that those who throw away should throw away.

Of course he was right.

It is extremely realistic, legitimate, and reasonable.

If he tried to save them by force, another damage could have occurred in the process.

However, if their deaths were to be justified, that was not the case either.

They should be killed without even knowing why.

Only then will it incur the resentment of the continent and become a public enemy and start a war.

In order to get rid of the giant force, this side might be a little more certain.

Even Ray himself thought so in his head.

However, the side that followed the heart, not the head, was the other side.

“I want to save everyone.”

Zeke, who had prepared countless countermeasures for a word full of sincerity, let out a small breath.

After thinking about it for a while, he said it as if he had made up his mind.

“I think I understand a little why Goddess Gaia chose her master as a saint. But everything requires a minimum sacrifice. If the lord protects those he wants to protect, there will surely be damage in unexpected places.”

Even though he bows his head respectfully, his eyes show firmness.

Ray nodded without speaking.

I already know.

If you go to war to save the people, soldiers die.

However, if you want to save soldiers, the people will suffer on the contrary.

As Zeke said, in everything there is always a minimum sacrifice.

There was no way to twist this like a causal law.

But maybe it can be minimized.

For that purpose, the Devon Kingdom and the Celia Kingdom made an alliance and gathered the power of the top, wouldn’t it?

With Zeke’s cooperation, Ray thought of what to do next.

* * *

In the Great Hall where the Pope resides, Ray was on one knee.

In front of him, Eclay, seated on a magnificent throne, looks down at him.

“Stop raising your head.”

“Are you listening?”

Eclay’s expression became a little complicated when he told the same story he had told Zeke.

‘It’s difficult.’

The pope’s position to protect the people and soldiers and the sense of mission to stop them from trampling the entire continent collided.

If you follow Ray’s words and declare war, the soldiers of the Holy Kingdom will surely die in large numbers.

However, if we leave the giant forces alone, we are afraid of repercussions.

After all, when the other kingdoms perish, their turn will come.

As she seemed to be thinking, Ray spoke again.

“They are still calling out. If you don’t catch it here, you won’t be able to catch it later, even if you want to.”

“Umm…”

She groaned for a long time before shaking her head.

“Whoa… give me a little time to think about it.”

Ray also let out a breath.

It was not a matter of thinking about it for a day or two, since the fate of the kingdom could be at stake.

She is the pope responsible for the people and at the same time a believer who follows the goddess Gaia.

However, since he is standing at the crossroads of whether or not the kingdom will perish in his own generation, his mind may be confused.

“I’d love to give you plenty of time, but I don’t have much time left.”

Seeing the half-man’s upper ranks fighting in the upper world and the surrounding kingdoms thirsting for blood, it wouldn’t be strange if a war broke out somewhere right away.

So things were going badly.

Even if you look at the entire continent, it’s moving like a plaything for them, so Ray’s insides burst.

‘It’s a matter of how long the half-man can hold out… From now on, he won’t be able to last less than a month.’

It is said that it is the upper half of the top half that exerts a strong influence in the upper world, but they are a force determined to deal with the continent.

Even holding out for a month was possible because of the current financial strength.

Eclay agreed with his will.

“I know I don’t have much time. The people who have been procuring information are disappearing one by one.”

As she spoke with a bitter face, her face looked ten years older.

Ray was quite surprised by those words.

If it’s an intelligence organization in the Holy Land, it’s pretty familiar.

That’s because the Holy Land is a place where you have to struggle to deal with the forces that oppose the goddess.

A necromancer might be born somewhere, and seriously, a demon might be summoned, but there is no way that the Seongguk, not elsewhere, will just sit and watch.

But I would have thought that even the intelligence organization of such a holy country would not have been able to find out their identities.

Once again, they seriously realized the gap between them and the giant power.

“How long have you died?”

Eclay answers his question.

“There are a little over two hundred people.”

“Two hundred people….”

This is an excessively large number to try to find out.

Although it was a period of about two years, which is not a short period of time, it is an unbelievable story that two hundred informants disappeared during that time.

In other words, isn’t it that one knight corps was blown away by just a few trivial information.

Even just a moment ago, I thought that the upper half of the upper class would last for a month, but this was the moment when I doubted it.

Maybe in less than two weeks the top door will need to be closed.

“…Call the nobles and talk to them, and give them an answer within at least three days.”

“Don’t do that.”

When the story was settled, Ray gave a short bow and left the battle.

As he left the castle and headed toward the mansion, he tapped his shoulder.

“I’ve prepared, but it’s still hard.”

Thanks to destroying all the upper tiers that were under the protection of the giant powers, it became a perfect environment for the upper half of the upper class to flourish, but that is also a story when time and money are sufficient.

There is money, but time is sorely lacking, so Halfman must be busy moving as if his feet are on fire.

Ray nodded his head in satisfaction, imagining half-man running around in the office, always fiddling with gold coins.

“Losing weight is good for your health, so it kills two birds with one stone.”

Had I only heard the harp, I would have shed tears.

As long as he endured, there was enough time to make plans for the future.

If Eclay refuses, you have to think of other options.

It took more time. The only way to hold on is currently only the top half, so it’s literally crazy.

Thinking about it, Ray muttered disapprovingly.

“I didn’t want to do just this…”

He grunted like a puppy in need of something, and then took a heavy step.

A maid came to Iriel who was working in the office of her mansion.

“Iriel-sama has a guest.”

“A guest?”

“That’s… I guess you’ll have to come in person.”

Feeling puzzled by the lady-in-waiting who didn’t know what to do, she stood up.

Her long flowing blonde hair swayed every time she walked.

When I moved my steps and headed to the bedroom, there was a saint who was swallowing tea down his throat even though it was not his mansion.

After a moment of silence, she let out a small sigh.

“…This is what I meant when I told you to come in person.”

When I gestured to the lady-in-waiting, the lady-in-waiting bowed and left.

When only the two of them were left in the bedroom, Iriel sat discreetly in a chair.

“It’s been seven years. The person who said he would quit the saint is looking for the saint again. What are you doing?”

The tone was stiff.

“long time no see.”

“I’m busy with my business, so please tell me about your business.”

The mutual greetings that had been served as if eating a meal in the Eastern Courtesy Country did not work for Iriel at all.

Rather, the corners of his eyes grew colder.

Embarrassed by him, Ray talked about the matter.

“I want some help.”

Iriel’s expression was suspicious for a moment.

“Help?”

“You may know that the Holy Kingdom has an information organization to some extent, but a huge force whose identity is not properly known is aiming for the continent. I want to enlist your help to stop that.”

That means you need power.

Iriel frowned slightly.

“Why are you telling me that? Isn’t it your job to speak to the Holy Father?”

“no. I have a different request for you. Of course, I have already told His Holiness.”

“What did His Holiness the Pope say?”

“I asked for time to think.”

“okay. Then there must be a reason why you did not wait for the answer and found me.”

It is also Iriel.

The conversation that had been going back and forth for the first time in a while made me feel better.

“Let me listen.”

When I talked about the Holy Kingdom, my attitude changed a little bit.

There, Ray, who peeked at the fragments of hope, spoke.

“I want you to prevent a war from breaking out on the continent. No, it’s okay to slow down the time even a little.”

Iriel lowered his eyes for a moment to guess the meaning of the words.

After drinking tea in silence for some time, she soon opened her beautiful lips.

“…That means I’ll go from kingdom to kingdom and comfort them. If you do, it will alleviate the hideous atmosphere for a while in order to look good to the saintess who has come as a guest.”

It’s a perfect answer as if you read your heart.

“that’s right.”

“If you simply need an adult, why don’t you go yourself?”

“Unfortunately, it is difficult because the Seongguk is not well prepared.”

His desire to go was like a chimney, but sadly he could not leave the Holy Land.

There is no place like Seongguk to read the situation and take action.

If something happens that is beyond your control while you are in another kingdom, the kingdom will fall into the interests of the great power as it is.

Iriel, who thought for a moment, rejected Ray’s words.

“It is impossible. This pilgrimage has already ended, and many responsibilities remain in the Holy Land. I’m sorry, but please find another way.”

He speaks calmly and gets up from his seat.

There was no word, but it was an obvious celebration,

so Ray had no choice but to wake up.

However, those eyes were never those of a person who gave up or gave up.

Who is he?

Aren’t you a man of tenacity who doesn’t know how to give up?

Once he decides to go banditing, his tenacity is to take off not only the bandits but also the back pockets of monsters nearby.

He was not weak enough to back down after being rejected only once.

Did you say one step back for two steps forward?

It was just like that now.
