To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 435
Episode 435 The Made Saint (4)
As we took a step closer, the bandit holding the self-proclaimed giant dragon sword hesitated and stepped back.
“Hey boys!”
He calls his colleagues, probably tired of Ray’s confidence.
Then, each holding a sword, they surrounded the villagers as if they were pressuring them.
Ray looked at the scene and thought for a moment about the treatment of the bandits.
‘If I don’t make it clear, there will be raids on the village again.’
I once scared the bandit boss, but I was acting like shit, as if I had a trustworthy back stomach.
If they retreat from here, there will undoubtedly be a new threat to the village.
Organizing her thoughts, Ray stopped the bandits without hesitation.
When I touched the back of the hand of the bandit who was reaching out to the villager, the arm was easily broken.
“Quaaaaagh!”
One bandit grabbed his hand and withdrew.
However, not all bandits retreated.
They each intended to hold villagers hostage and pressure Ray.
‘If I don’t move quickly, I’ll get hit!’
Swallowing their saliva, they each approach the villagers.
As more than a hundred bandits rushed at it in an instant, the villagers began to resist.
It was not easy for the bandits who had never learned swordsmanship to subdue them as they threatened them by wielding farm implements.
Ray took care of the hesitant bandits.
Took-! Took-!
He patted his hand once or twice, and every time he did, a mournful scream erupted from his son-in-law.
The bandits hit by him hurriedly retreated with their hands hanging down.
It seems that he only moved a few times, but all the hands of over ninety bandits were smashed.
As the situation went differently than they expected, the remaining bandits did not dare to attack even if their hands were intact.
The villagers couldn’t hide their amazement as they saw Ray overpowering over a hundred bandits by himself.
I thought he was a kind-hearted young man who simply helped the village, but he possessed terrifying power, just like the past and now.
Since we had been together for a while, I was not afraid of him again, but I was a little in awe.
It seems that he only tapped the back of his hand a few times, but all the bandits’ hands turned into rags.
Ray pointed at the bandits with his chin.
“Those with broken hands can do whatever they want.”
When his permission was given, the villagers instead approached the bandits step by step.
Every time that happened, the bandits were retreating against them.
The village men grind their teeth.
“I’ve accumulated a lot of things over the years, but it’s been good.”
“Just these bandits!”
“Let’s not do this, let’s take care of everything in the center of town!”
“If you keep it alive, it’s good that you don’t know if it will attack again.”
Hearing their terrifying words, the bandits ran away with all their might without looking back.
“Run away! Catch it!”
A chase took place in the village.
Every time they ran, their limp hands rattled and caused excruciating pain, but the bandits seemed to think that it was better than being captured and killed, and the bandits ran with all their strength.
Ray looked at him quietly.
‘I’ve given the boss a clear warning, so he’ll be a little alert.’
Perhaps the leader, who had lost most of his subordinates alive, would not be able to make any noticeable movements.
Thinking about that, I felt a little relieved.
However, it wasn’t long before I found out that it was a mistake.
* * *
The boss of wild vegetables was sitting on a tall chair covered with animal skins and listening to the bandits talk.
Looking down at his subordinates whose hands were all shattered, he drooled.
“Umm…”
It was a more serious blow than expected.
For a moment, the leader of the wild vegetables, holding onto the arm of one of the bandits and looking around, shook his head.
Not only the bone, but also all of the skeletal muscles attached to it were gone.
I wouldn’t know if the high priest came, but this can’t be fixed even if I find a priest now.
“So you mean you were beaten like this by one guy?”
“That’s right! He was so strong that he changed like this after getting hit on the back of his hand once!”
“It wasn’t human force, Chaeju!”
Ray, reflected in their eyes, was truly a bloody slaughter.
The bandits shuddered at the thought of him leisurely crossing the bandits with strange footwork.
Hana Chae-ju thought it was natural.
Having reached the level of a master, it wouldn’t have been too difficult for him to deal with hordes of bandits.
No, it’s rather a miracle that he came back alive.
Perhaps he sent all the bandits alive with only their hands broken as a ‘warning’.
A bandit asked cautiously.
“I… Chae-joo. What will happen to our hands now?”
Chae-joo clicked his tongue at them, who had the slightest hope that Chae-joo might be able to fix their hands.
“Wrong. If you have the money you’ve accumulated, go visit Seongguk. You guys will have to live with that arm for the rest of your life, if you don’t know if you’re being treated by someone at the level of a high priest.”
“It can’t be…”
“Tsk tsk. If that wasn’t the case, I should have fled alive.”
He speaks well even though he would have gone mad if he had really run away.
The bandits, terrified that they might not be abandoned in the wild, bowed their heads without replying.
As usual, since the plundering of the village failed, the chaeju’s discord would fall.
However, Chae-joo just smiled contentedly and nodded her head.
“Good job.”
“yes?”
When the unexpected words came out of his mouth, the bandits’ eyes widened.
“Good job. He did really well.”
He had been banditting for a long time, but he had never heard Chaeju’s praise.
Chaeju seemed to be in a good mood as she stroked her hair.
That will be too.
His original purpose was to divert attention and buy time.
The raid on the village by bandits diverted attention from the Goblin Swamp and bought them more time.
‘It’s only a matter of time before Goblin Lake turns into a swamp.’
Moreover, since reinforcements strong enough to deal with the Master were coming, I thought I could put my mind at ease now.
Elated at the thought of things going well, he gave orders to the bandits.
“Bring the keg! Let’s drink big today!”
The hand to bring the keg is broken, but the order cannot be ignored.
The bandits cried and headed for the keg to eat mustard.

The Heretic Questioner’s party, which departed from Celia, was finally able to arrive at the village after moving for several days.
I got lost a few times because it was located in a place much deeper than I thought.
“It is a difficult road. If I was wrong, it would have taken more time.”
“The first road is inherently difficult. Besides, the map is also drawn incorrectly, so it can’t be helped.”
“To think that the map I bought at a high price looks like this… I guess I’ll have to ask the upper half of the team to revise the map.”
While walking and exchanging stories, the entrance to the village caught my eye.
The sun-drenched village was quite quaint.
The fence made of wood and the shabby but quaint houses calmly captured the atmosphere of the village.
However, the villagers who licked their lips in it did not fit the village atmosphere at all.
Dozens of people mockingly point torches at just a few people.
“These twins’ children!”
“I’ll split the boat right now!”
The townsfolk, who had caught a few bandits, were in a state of excitement, like witch-hunts.
“It must be torn to pieces!”
“Torturing them alive!”
It shakes as if it is about to be poked with a blade hung at the end of a window sill.
The three Heretic Questioners were startled by the ferocious appearance.
At first, I had doubts about why such a small town had asked for a heresy question, but now I felt like I knew why.
What kind of villagers wield spears like primitive tribes and oppress the poor!
This was something that shouldn’t have happened.
At least while they are there!
They raised their holy power and stopped the villagers.
“Can’t you stop right now, you nasty bastards!”
The old, bearded interrogator waved his hands in anger, and the ranks of the villagers collapsed in an instant.
The townsfolk with believing backs rebelled furiously.
“Who is your old man, but are you interfering in other people’s village affairs?”
“What what? Inspiration?”
While serving as a Heretic Inquisitor, one villager was busy bowing to himself.
It had been a long time since I had heard such a bold voice.
A gray-haired old man took out a plaque from his bosom and showed it.
The plaque carefully adorned with platinum and jewels was a proof plaque that was only allowed to the Heretic Inquisitors.
“I am an interrogator who came to your village for heresy questioning. The first time I came here thinking it was a waste of time, but now I see that the villagers are so savage!”
Hearing his words, the villagers groaned and fell on their knees.
“Welcome! I’m sorry I didn’t get to know you before!”
“Oh, come to all these shabby places… I will hurry up and guide you!”
Heretic Inquisitor.
They are those who have been granted summary judgment, just like nobles in the kingdom, who have a small stake in the village’s survival.
If it looked bad, the entire village could have been killed.
The bandits who saw hope there began to scream.
“Please save me!”
“We were only in town for a short time! The villagers here caught an innocent person and are trying to kill him as a witch!”
Some villagers were furious at the lies that flowed out of their mouths, but when the village chief waved his hand, they gnashed their teeth and remained still.
A young Heretic Inquisitor stepped in.
“As expected, this village is a heresy. see Didn’t the villagers gain weight by eating well to match the shabby village atmosphere? Besides, look at the people hanging in the center of town. My hands are limp. He broke his arm and persecuted the innocent. It’s an odd bunch. It deserves to be punished immediately.”
Certainly, as the young interrogator said, the current situation made the villagers look like heretics.
However, the experienced interrogator did not arbitrarily pass judgment on heresy.
“It is not possible to designate a village as a heresy simply under one circumstance. That is a ‘sin’ that you should never commit as an Inquisitor.”
The young interrogator bowed his head at his scolding words.
“Thank you for your teaching.”
“By the way… I guess I need to look around town. We need to hear their stories.”
For some reason, the interrogators frowned as they inspected the town, which was bleak.
