To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 44
Episode 44 Changed Journey (3)
At Iriel’s words, the two priests stood at a loss for words.
As long as the ‘heretic judge’ came out of the saintess’ mouth, she couldn’t interfere.
If they made a mistake, even the people who surrounded them could be investigated.
Then the priestesses went into a frenzy. To hand over one’s personal affairs to the Heretic Judge? It was a matter of life and death.
“Iriel-nim… I’m really sorry. We just…!”
“The target of the apology is wrong! Is it not enough to apologise properly for scorning the saint chosen by God with those three tongues!”
Then he murmured softly.
“…There are people who can’t say it out loud even if they want to apologize…”
It wasn’t Ray who couldn’t hear that murmur.
He thought as he stood in the bush, obliterating his sight.
‘It’s your story.’
Her words that she couldn’t apologize because of her position as a saint. It just came to mind because of Iriel’s words.
Even if I wanted to apologize, I couldn’t. Silky it’s not just an apology, but it will be the same with other words.
The weight of the name Iriel Beliaise. In the past, he also felt the weight of his name.
One’s own word about medicine creates people who study it. There are people who gain strength because of a single word, and it brings a lot of waves to society.
How could he not know that it would be better if he kept his mouth shut?
Nevertheless, in order to convince the elves, she abandoned all power in the Holy Land and spent the night in front of their village asking for forgiveness in the body of a saint.
I may not have been forgiven, but I couldn’t help but nod my head at the sincerity she showed.
For her, that was the best thing she could do.
Ray, who was looking at Iriel, looked at the priestesses.
They and Iriel were very comparable.
Also, Iriel’s age is slightly younger. But why is it that she is much more mature in her actions?
It felt like the image of Iriel’s savage saint she had known until now had been stripped away.
Ray thought it was time for him to step up.
If you take more time, things will get huge.
Iriel is startled when he intentionally reveals his presence.
‘This level of stealth… who the hell!’
Iriel, who turned his head around to check his opponent, was even more surprised to see Ray standing there.
Without even time to express his doubts, he grunted.
“Are you done talking? Good to hear. You laughed well in front of me, and you peel pumpkin seeds well.”
When the main character of the incident appeared, the surrounding fell into silence again.
Others don’t know where Rey was. I just wondered if I had heard the buzzing around me.
But Iriel was different.
‘It suddenly appeared… If it came from far away, there’s no way I wouldn’t have noticed it.’
Normally I could find him wherever he was. However, I couldn’t do that now.
It must mean that he intentionally erased his presence.
A stealth that could fool even her.
If she knew the source of how to erase that sign, she would be stunned.
It was because at the time of the treatment of Aira, it had evolved to the level of evolution in order to climb trees without anyone knowing.
Rey looked at the priestesses, whether they knew the idea or not.
“Did you think of me that way? A child who can’t tell the difference is going to become a scarecrow saint.”
They couldn’t say anything about it.
I knew that making excuses would put me at a disadvantage.
Without saying anything, Ray nodded.
“Still, to what extent is it true that he plans to become a scarecrow saint?”
Iriel was surprised to be able to accept it without any emotion.
“Sir Seongjae, what do you mean by that!”
“That’s right. Right now, there is no divine power or anything, and I don’t know if I can go to the Holy Land and do something. It was just chosen by God, but it’s a good position to become a scarecrow.”
His sharp words shocked those around him. Even the priestesses who had been cursing him opened their mouths.
The saint they knew was young, so he could shoot vicious words and curse the priestesses.
However, unlike their thoughts, what came out of his mouth was extremely realistic, to the extent that it could be seen as an insult to himself.
Iriel was surprised and stopped him.
“no! How dare you be a scarecrow to the Holy Son! God did not choose the saint with such an intention!”
“Oh, who would have chosen me for that purpose? I don’t think there are people in the Holy Land who think like these people. If you look at it that way, being a scarecrow is unavoidable.”
While talking, I asked Iriel.
“Can I handle this case?”
“Yes…”
Ray asked again.
“What if I hand it over to the Heresy Judge or something?”
“…I will be interrogated. They insulted the saint. It will probably be difficult to avoid punishment.”
The priestesses, terrified by those words, looked at Ray and shouted.
“Just that please!”
“sorry! We had a short thought!”
He looked at them and pondered, then looked around and said.
“Surely there are other people besides these people here who have looked down on me. Yes?”
He didn’t pick someone to talk about, but looked around the crowd and talked.
One by one, I saw those who averted their eyes or lowered their heads in guilt as to whether his words were true.
To be honest, I couldn’t imagine that there wouldn’t be people like this in the lower religious group, who had a child standing on top of them.
Maybe even at the meeting room.
In that opinion, Iriel also had the same thought.
Ray looked at them and said.
“It is not unreasonable to think so. As many of you think, I am still young. I don’t have the power, ability, connections, or reputation I have, so this kind of reaction is natural.”
“….”
“We are…”
As they were about to say something, Ray continued.
“Then I will prove you wrong in the years I will be in the Holy Land.”
“….”
“I will make it so that people who look down on me and look down on me will sigh and regret it…. What I just said… I promise you.”
Ray looked at the priestesses and smiled.
“As proof of that promise… I will not punish them. For the day you will soon regret.”
At his last words, the audience shuddered.
‘Oh my god…’
Iriel wrapped her hands around her shoulders.
She was startled.
Whatever it is, I never thought I would say such a thing.
Unbelievable words, even though it was clear that the words could not be kept, goose bumps appeared on my body.
Everyone who met his eyes when he said the last words must have felt it.
That no one would think that it was the childish language of a child.
Ray’s words had a huge ripple effect.
Seeing him forgive those who insulted him, they felt ashamed of themselves.
‘Why did I look down on that great person just because he was young?’
‘If he wasn’t a saint… no one in the world would have become a saint…’
Ray’s ‘regret’ immediately engulfed the audience.
Although they were despised, they thought of the other person and even forgave them, bringing them to their knees.
Chuck- Cheo-
eok-
The hall was enveloped in solemnity with the sound of friction from the armor.
Knees kneeling one by one and head bowing soon made all the contingent members prostrate.
No one said anything, but their actions showed their loyalty to the saint.
Iriel didn’t think his goosebumps would go away as he saw the extreme respect he had never received.
In an instant, it turned a bad situation into a situation that everyone respected.
Is this his strength? is his ability
My heart skipped a beat when I saw him strangely.
Her gray hair, glistening in the moonlight, stood out exceptionally.
In the midst of which everyone knelt down and bowed in awe. Why do they look so attractive when they smile at them?
It was difficult to control the body to the extent that it made me wonder.
It had never been like this since I received divine power after baptism.
The priestesses said with tears in their eyes.
“Hey heck… I’m sorry, Holy Son! We’ve been thinking wrong all this time…!”
“I’m truly sorry… I’m so sorry… I’m sorry!”
Ray turned to them and said.
“I hope you regret more than you do now. Until I achieve my goal and leave the kingdom, I will do my best to raise the kingdom to the highest level for the day I promised. I don’t know if it will be tomorrow or years from now.”
As he finished speaking, Ray turned around and walked towards the tent he had built.
Everyone in the audience was unable to stand up even after he disappeared.
I had no choice but to fall to my knees, trembling with trembling.
Thus passed the first night to the grand duke’s estate.
* * *
In the morning, we headed back to the territory of the Archduke of Silos.
The way they treated Ray after last night was no joke.
He never spilled a single word, and when he grinned at a funny joke, he would even prostrate himself.
Iriel could only admire his ability to swallow everyone in one incident.
I thought that she had done a lot of work as a saint and gave me trust in the work.
Unlike Iriel, who followed orders, they followed Ray with their hearts.
He had no orders to give, but when he occasionally asked for a favor, he accepted it with great pleasure.
Unlike his usual horseback riding, Ray, who rode in a carriage today, was looking at the scenery outside.
Iriel carefully peeked at the figure.
Hair blowing in the wind blowing out of the wagon. The clear eyes hit her chest directly.
In an instant, Iriel’s face turned red.
‘Why am I doing this? I can’t control myself since yesterday.’
He shook his head to brush off his thoughts, but soon his eyes focused on him again.
Then Ray looked at her.
“What have you been doing since before? Keep looking, shake your head, then look again. Are you mentally ill? Can I fix it?”
“Ah, maybe so… can you fix it…?”
Ray frowned.
It was severe. He seemed to have mental problems even normally, but it must have gotten worse.
It was at this level that it interfered with daily life.
It was to the point of fear when I saw her shaking her head frantically like a crazy person.
He placed his hand on Iriel’s forehead with a serious expression.
Then I felt a tremendous heat. It was as if my hand had been hit with high-ranking fire-type magic.
“Oh hot!”
“…Am I sick?”
Ray said worriedly in the heat indeed.
“Shit… You look really sick.”
The heat I felt was no joke, so of course I was worried.
I thought it would be at least 39 degrees.
He grabbed her wrist this time and felt her pulse.
A hand with no heat in the distinct beating.
I tilted my head in wonder.
‘…Is this normal?’
Then, what is the unknown heat felt on the forehead?
She recalled several similar symptoms, but there was no way she couldn’t heal her body.
I shook my head and took out a book from my backpack.
He had nothing to do in the Grand Duke’s territory, but he was quite worried.
Not only at the grand duke’s estate, but also when he went to greet the king, he was quite embarrassed.
However, he had brought a book on etiquette from Aira’s house in case this situation would arise.
I haven’t had time to read it in the meantime, but I think I can read it calmly now.
Of course, if it weren’t for Iriel’s gaze looking at her as if observing herself.
Fortunately, Ray’s concentration is good, so I was a little nervous, but I was able to immerse myself in the book.
