To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 398

Episode 398 The Second Temple (4)

Seongguk received two letters.

They are all personal letters of the king who is in charge of a kingdom.

The content was simple.

– A crisis has come to the kingdom. The kingdom seen by him is shameless, but Bio asks for a saint. Please do not refuse. Grace will never be forgotten.

It was a heavy burden.

How can a saint say that he gives or receives in two kingdoms?

There was something else that was even more difficult.

Celia Kingdom was afraid of being invaded and wanted a saint, and Baybon Kingdom was asking for a saint to regain its lost borders.

It is said that Celia’s correspondence was faster than Baybon’s, but if you look only at the urgency of the situation, the Baybon Kingdom is also not inferior to Celia.

So, the Holy Nation had to choose.

Which of the two kingdoms will you share with in the future?

Without considering their embarrassing position, the two kingdoms only urged.

The nobles who heard the news in Daejeon shook their heads.

“Umm… It’s a pitiful situation… but isn’t the Holy Son not in the Holy Land right now?”

“Even if the Holy Son exists, it is a problem. A kingdom has fallen out of favor completely. You have to think carefully.”

At the words of the High Priests, Eclay affirmed with difficulty.

It was not a matter to be decided lightly.

In the case of Celia, the kingdom itself may be destroyed if it is defeated because it is invaded.

If Baybon doesn’t regain its borders from the monsters, its territory will be smaller than it is now.

Celia was also the hometown of the Saint, and Baybon readily gave up its troops when the Necromancer advanced to the Holy Land.

It was difficult to pinpoint and help anyone.

While they were struggling, a soldier hurriedly entered the battlefield.

“His Holiness the Pope!”

When even the soldiers were flustered in a situation where they already had a headache, I felt uneasy in my heart.

‘Maybe something else happened.’ The nobles, who were thinking, asked the soldier.

“What’s the matter, are you making a fuss like this? Calm down and tell me.”

The soldier, who had been holding his breath for a while, knelt down and opened his mouth.

“Unidentified wizards have come.”

“Wizard?”

“yes. They say that they will be of help on behalf of the Holy Son.”

To replace the saint?

It’s a bit ridiculous.

The nobles laughed.

“Heh heh heh.”

“To think that only a few wizards would take the place of the saint. So, how many wizards have visited the Holy Kingdom?”

The soldier hesitated at the question and said,

“Take as few as you can, and there will be three hundred.”

“Four to three hundred!”

High priests and nobles forgot their body language and screamed.

Even if only one hundred wizards from the 3rd circle were gathered, it was a number that could be put in full force right away.

But three hundred wizards!

It was a large army that would not be enough even if it was used for a long time, let alone the current power.

Why did such people suddenly come to the Holy Land!

Eclay showed great interest.

“It is a sudden good news. It’s good to be genuinely happy about the good news, but before that, let’s ask why.”

The soldier bowed his head as if to apologize.

“That’s why… Those who called themselves a religion said they gathered to support the Holy Son, not for the sake of the Holy Kingdom.”

“To assist the saint. You can take that as saying that it is for the sake of the holy nation where the saint lives.”

“yes. That’s why I wonder if he didn’t come all the way to Seongguk to help.”

Eclay, who had been pondering over the soldier’s words, tilted his head.

“Ugh. I can’t figure it out at all. Accepting it willingly made me wonder if it would be the enemy’s intriguing force, and rejecting it would do me a lot of damage. What should the Lords do?”

As she looked at the nobles and asked, various opinions flowed here and there.

“His Holiness, you have to drop it immediately. If our information leaks to the dark forces at this time when we are conserving our strength, we will surely suffer a great blow.”

“My opinion is a little different. This is also the crusade Goddess Gaia sent to save us. To refuse a helping hand? That’s not to say.”

The count frowned at the viscount’s words.

“What if it’s not like a crusade! The viscount will pick up the words from just now!”

“I’m sorry, Count. But I don’t think it’s right to refuse something that might be the will of the goddess.”

Opinions that the timing was questionable and opinions that they should be accepted created two factions.

“The Seongguk has made an announcement that it will conserve its strength. If you don’t accept them, then who should you accept! Besides, it’s my power! What kind of force in the world would send more than 300 wizards just to try to trick them!”

“However, it is still suspicious! The support forces at the point where the war against the dark forces is over and they are just conserving their strength! Isn’t the timing too right!”

“Isn’t that what I said! If all of this is arranged by the Goddess, I can understand it!”

“There is a degree, a degree! If they shoot magic from inside the castle, what will they do!”

At those words, everyone swallowed their saliva.

Three hundred wizards all at once using magic within the Holy Kingdom?

Then, Celonia will be literally scorched.

No matter how well you try your defense magic, it’s impossible to block all the magic that might come from anywhere.

In the worst case, all the key figures in the Holy Kingdom could die.

Eucliwood, who was still in deep thought, opened his mouth.

“…His Holiness the Pope, may I dare to say something?”

“Tell me, Marquis of Belacroix.”

“thank you. To put my opinion straight, I think it would be better to dispatch them to Celia Kingdom.”

At her words, Eclay let out a strange exclamation.

“Hoo.”

“If they are infiltrating forces, we will not suffer any damage because they will go to the Celia Kingdom instead of inside the Holy Land. Also, even if this is not the case, there will be no damage on our side. In addition, both kingdoms are asking for the saint, but strictly speaking, it is believed that the kingdom of Celia wants troops to prepare for an invasion, and the kingdom of Babon wants to regain its borders. If this happens, at least Celia’s request will be resolved. If you’re lucky and even the Qing of the Baybon Kingdom is resolved, the Holy Kingdom will give grace to the two giant kingdoms. It will be of great help in dealing with the dark forces in the future.”

Her well-thought-out words silenced the clamor of arguing in the audience.

A way to catch both rabbits.

Besides, it was not something that the Seongguk had to bear the risk of, so there was no reason to oppose it.

Eclay nodded in satisfaction.

“The Marquis gave a good opinion. It is said that Bellacroix is famous for resourcefulness, and only today I realized that what I said was not wrong.”

“It’s too much praise.” After taking a look at Eucliwood, who lowered his head, Eclay moved his gaze to the audience.

“Does anyone have an objection?” I asked politely.

“….”

“..”

There was no way anyone would object to the perfect measures.

Moreover, since the family head of Belacroix gave her own opinion, how could she know what would happen if she refuted it head-on?

As everyone kept their mouths shut and looked closely, Eclay nodded slightly.

“Then I’ll do as the Marquis says. Bring the religion into the Holy Land. I will try to meet them once.”

“All right.”

“Ray.”

Aira’s clear voice woke her mind.

It felt like a boost to my exhausted heart.

“Ira.”

“Where the hell are you? What is this temple again?”

Rey looked at Aira as she held the hammer.

she was fine

Only she remained here.

When he didn’t answer, Aira felt strange and asked again.

“I must have been asleep for quite some time. Where are the other high elves?” He

shook

his head slowly—

He didn’t even know.

You know the high elves went to the Gate, but they stayed here to complete the altar to protect Aira in order to build a temple.

Perhaps they had already died from being attacked by demons.

Aira, who was watching his reaction, realized the seriousness of the situation.

She approached after a month and hugged Ray with her small body and said cautiously.

“Let’s talk. What the hell happened?”

Ray, who was staring at the same blue eyes as himself, opened his mouth.

said.

things that happened in the past.

what you’ve been through.

The high elves disappeared one by one.

And what he did when he was left alone.

Without answering anything, Aira listened to his story in silence with a serious face.

Without showing any emotion, he just looked into his eyes and listened.

“…”

When the story is over, I close my eyes.

“I see.”

It was a word.

The taciturn attitude of listening to that one word was a great comfort.

After a while, Aira’s eyes opened and stopped at the furnace.

Warmth lingered in the hearth, which should not have been lit.

Turning her head, this time she looked at the huge cabin built on top of a tree.

In the cabin, where no one was supposed to stay, there was a sense of humanity.

Kind hands flowed from the empty altar, and solemnity flowed from the temple built with raw wood.

It was a completely different look, but a completely different feeling.

They gave off a strong human scent.

Did you accomplish all of this alone?

when everyone is gone

when you are asleep

Did he arrange a second one alone for everyone?

Are you willing to put up with hardships to build this?

Ira kept her mouth shut.

I dared not open my mouth.

being ignored and being persecuted.

Losing their own and taking away even what they gained.

The road I walked was so sublime that I couldn’t bear to look at it.

I did not dare to sympathize or offer comfort.

He was definitely a saint arranged by the Goddess.
