To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 382
Episode 382 Disaster (8)
“How can I relax?”
Ray asked Elisa, who was standing tall under the night sky.
After thinking about it for a moment, she replied with a smile.
“Peace is not something you get. It is only when your heart is at peace that you can say you are at ease.”
“When your heart is at peace?”
“It’s a different thing depending on how you make up your mind. While doing the same thing, wouldn’t someone feel relaxed and someone else impatient?”
“Then how can I attain serenity?”
“When you can embrace everything, then you will have peace.”
have peace of mind
Certainly, Elisa, seen from the side, was literally tranquility itself.
I couldn’t get rid of the feeling of being relaxed when I was around him.
If there is too much room, it is called indolence, and if there is little, it is called impatience.
She was neither lazy nor impatient.
She herself said that was her leisure.
The moment Ray is about to ask something again.
After breathing the night air pleasantly, Elisha entered the temple.
He also followed her in.
Then the three high elves, who had been constantly talking, looked in their direction.
Heprion was the first to speak.
“oh! Elisha! I didn’t expect you to come!”
“I didn’t expect to arrive so quickly either. The world might be destroyed, so it seems like I’m just speeding up.”
“Um… but I’m a little worried. Because you can’t handle mana, you can’t handle the altar.”
Heprion’s shocking words startled Ray behind her.
“yes? Can’t handle mana?”
“Ah, if it were Ray, you wouldn’t know. Elisa is the only high elf who can’t use mana! It’s not clear yet if I can’t do it or not!”
He pointed to Elisha with a bright face and explained.
oh my god.
High elves can’t handle mana?
In her life, Ray had heard that elves couldn’t wield swords, but never heard that elves couldn’t use magic.
Could that composure come from not being able to use mana?
Elisa took a sip of the tea with her characteristic expression.
“It’s a law that can’t be done if you’re bound by mana. Of course, I am a slightly different case. Mana is the form and source into which indolence is transformed. Who would take the strait road if there was an easy way back?”
At first glance, that makes sense.
Didn’t Derp say something similar?
It means that you cannot create good works by relying on powers such as mana.
Heprion smiled at Elisa.
“But it’s heartbreaking that it doesn’t help when it matters this much! Wouldn’t the rookie elf chief here be more helpful than Elisa, who can’t use mana!”
Sert, who had been pointed out by him, bowed his head in contemplation.
“Say Sertra! I… As Heprion-sama said, I’m not a very capable high elf… I… Serien-sama is better than me…
” It is true that I am of no help here.”
Elisha didn’t care at all about Heprion’s point.
Acknowledge the facts and accept reality.
She did it as naturally as breathing.
Serien banged on the table to get attention.
“I am not talking about this. The main point was that human help was indispensable now, right?”
“If that’s the case, I’ve made my point well enough! I’m sorry, but I don’t think you really need Ray’s help! If it is a life that is meant to go against tradition, it might be better to end it! That side is romantic!”
“I… I think so too…”
Sert sided with Heprion in a hoarse voice.
Then the situation went differently from Serien’s intention.
However, even though the two high elves objected, the reason they still couldn’t finish the story was probably because there was a premise that Aira would side with Serien.
It is a fact known to all elves who know that Aira and Ray have a close relationship.
Even if they searched for the reason they were able to come this far, it was because of Aira’s influence.
Then, until now, we are in a situation where we can say that each other’s opinions are 2:2.
Now, there is only one vote left in this seat.
That was Elisa’s opinion.
All eyes turned to her.
Elisa, who drew attention, blushed a little as if she was embarrassed.
“Your gaze stings, but ahaha…”
“Make up your mind, Elisa. The decision is all up to you now.”
Serien’s words were accepted by Heprion.
“To have all the initiative in the story while having no power! How romantic!”
Apparently, Heprion is the type who values romance quite a bit.
After looking around the crowd, Elisa cast her gaze at Ray this time.
“Hmm.”
The light green eyes resembling the green of nature were still resting.
Despite the pressure from the high elves, he examined himself closely before opening his mouth.
“I still don’t know what kind of person Ray is. So it’s hard to decide.”
“What do you mean?”
“I would like you to give me some time to observe a little more. It’s not my taste to talk about beings I don’t know.”
Heprion nodded in agreement at Elisa’s words.
“That makes sense. I also agree with Elisha!”
Serien gave me a glare.
“Aren’t you too arrogant? But… yes. It seems to me that you guys need time to understand this human being. I will also accept Elisa’s opinion.”
“I don’t know what to do since two ho-ohs accepted my words.”
The majority came out in defense of her.
At this point, it was as if the story had ended.
Elisa stood up.
“Looks like he’s out of mana. It looks like you got angry for trying to forcefully touch the altar.”
As if she had come to see the past, she accurately diagnosed Ray’s condition.
“you’re right! Serien says it will take about 10 days to get back to normal!”
Ten days is neither short nor long.
However, the ten days now, when the altar was hanging, could be said to be the time at which the world was at the crossroads of perishing or not.
If the altar exploded right away, the dimension could be wide open.
It was burdensome to spend 10 days just for the reason of recognizing myself.
‘I can’t touch the altar without even recovering my condition. Above all, even if it takes ten days to stand on the altar again, it will cause mana depletion again.’
Unlike the past, when it was possible to draw and use mana in the air infinitely, now it is a situation where the mind is used as a mana rod.
I couldn’t live without worrying about mana consumption like before.
Ray opened up about his condition.
“Just because 10 days have passed doesn’t mean my body will fully recover. I recently lost a dear friend. The bowl of Eonyeong, which I thought I had found stability, is shaking and now it is breaking. This won’t be fixed even if it’s only ten days.”
“Oh oh! Have you mastered the language? It’s a first for a human being!”
Sert said cautiously.
“It’s Mr. Ray’s fault for not making up his mind… I don’t think there’s any reason for us to be concerned about that…” It was
quite a dagger for what he said quietly.
Ray nodded his head as he listened to her tearing up his chest.
“It is my fault, without any excuses. In the meantime, I’m not afraid again, but I want to ask Elisha one favor.”
“Hmm, even after saying it was my fault, are you saying you’re going to ask a favor in addition to that?”
“yes. Instead, I will take responsibility and find all the mana lines on the altar.”
That’s a pretty confident statement.
No, it was too wild to say in a place where there were five high elves gathered.
Elisa said while drinking elf tea as if she was having fun.
“Keep talking.”
Then Ray bowed his head towards her.
“You teach me. Tell me what serenity is.”
* * *
Everyone in the audience froze.
In the meantime, only Elisha burst into laughter.
“Ahahahaha! Are you seeking instruction from me? Are you trying to learn the language from me who can’t use mana? It is interesting! Fun!”
On the other hand, Ray’s expression was serious.
“Peace is your greatest weapon. As you said, unlike other high elves, there must be a reason why they remain calm despite not being able to use mana. I want to learn it.”
“Oh, you looked down on me. So let me explain. What profit would I gain if I taught you at the cost of my greatest weapon?”
At her words, Ray raised his head.
“If my vessel develops with your teaching, I will find all the mana lines on the altar as promised. Isn’t Elisha honestly angry? You took the time to walk to the altar, but all you got back was the accusation, ‘It’s not even helpful when it’s important.’ I’m giving you that opportunity. So that we can be of help to everyone with dignity when it is important.”
If you are yourself, you can find all the points and mana lines on the altar.
If it were him, he could produce more perfect results at a speed that overwhelmed the other high elves.
So shout out to everyone through yourself.
Shout out to everyone so that no one can say that they are not helpful because they do not have mana.
I will give you that chance
he was saying that
His confidence was so high that he said ‘give me a chance’ to Elisha in the position of asking for a favor.
Elisa looked directly at Ray.
“That’s…”
And this time, he looked at everyone except Ray.
Serien Heprion Sert.
And down to Ira.
Light green eyes scanned the temple, the forest, the mountain range, and the world.
Before long, a deep smile formed on Elisha’s lips.
“That’s a pretty tempting proposition.”
