To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 456

Episode 456 Celia’s Slave Trader, Justice’s Slave Trader (12)

“…I want to talk to the master.”

At his words, the knight who had been watching the situation from behind Mien came forward.

“Stop it, Captain.”

“Gunter? How are you, the escort, here?”

When the knight commander looked at him as if he had seen something strange, the knight called Gunter replied with a complicated face.

“…We fought against them ‘there’, but were defeated. They took care of me last night.”

The knight commander flinched for a moment at the expression ‘there’, but that was all.

Rather, he answered calmly with a face that said nothing was wrong.

“Your subordinate owes you.”

“leader. It is certain that these are scouting parties sent by His Majesty. Looking at each individual’s skills and progress, I can dare to assert.”

Ray’s party defeated the slave traders all at once.

Rumors had already spread among the nobles that two of the only four slave auction houses in the capital had disappeared.

Since it is not known who did it, there were even rumors that the king, who had noticed about the slave auction, secretly used his hands.

In the midst of this, a series of groups claiming to be Celia’s scouting team appeared at the right time, and Gunther believed them completely.

When there was a plausible witness after staying still, the corners of Ray’s mouth couldn’t go up, so it was caught in his ears.

“I know that. The cards they showed prove it.”

“Then please tell me.”

“Why did you do that earlier? It’s not like usual.”

“This is a moment when the life of the future head of household is in danger. No, it’s a matter of the family’s survival. Please make the right choice.”

Despite his pleading voice, the knight commander only drool for a moment.

After thinking for a moment, he shook his head.

“Gunther, this is where I have been for thirty years. How could I turn my back on the owner of such a place?”

“Stop forgetting the past. To choose to escape without thinking about the current problem. I don’t get along with the captain.”

“stop!”

The roar of the knight commander filled the forest.

The birds of the forest were startled and ran away at the sound mixed with mana.

“Stop it, Gunter. I will never turn my back on the family until the lord leaves us personally. So please. stop it.”

“Captain…”

Gunther did not open his mouth again at his words.

The leader’s ability to act once he has made a decision is frightening.

He neither withdrew nor compromised, so there was no stubbornness.

Ray, who had been quietly listening to the conversation, smiled.

“It is a great loyalty. The one who is called the master is using slaves and throwing the honor of the Knights to the ground. Even a pet dog will bite if its owner doesn’t like it.”

In a good way, it was great loyalty, but in a bad way, that stubbornness was leading the family to destruction.

Despite hearing insults, the leader was calm.

“It doesn’t matter if I hear you curse. I just stand by my convictions.”

it’s a belief

Of course, it might be a great belief for a knight.

However, as a vassal who cares about his family, it was a disqualification.

“Problems don’t go away or diminish if left alone. I’ll see how long your beliefs last.”

“Someday the owner will recognize it too.”

I’m sorry, but that won’t happen.

People say that people change, but the truth is that they just saw a compromise with themselves.

Ray met the knight’s eyes.

There was ‘desperation’ covered in the skin of ‘belief’.

* * *

Ray freed one of the knights and ordered them to go and report the situation to their master.

The knight looked at it for a moment and was confused, but when the knight commander nodded, he quickly ran away.

Soonbok, who glanced at the place where the knights were, said worriedly.

– Are you sure you’re okay? Things will get complicated when the owner finds out.

At that, Ray softly closed his eyes.

“Wrong beliefs only lead to depravity. I have no choice but to face reality.”

Only an incomprehensible answer came back.

– However, if you look at the reality like this, it seems that you are going to turn on the futility while looking for the owner

.

At his words, Ray nodded again.

“So you have to step in.”

– yes?

“Soonbok, run.”

Are you running all of a sudden?

Are you saying to pursue the knight?

It is the lowest quality errand among errands.

No matter how you do it, you have the face of a top-notch spirit!

– No! How unfortunate! I can’t even die!

Soonbok slapped him in the same way as to slit his stomach.

“Ah, this was a bad product. then what I have no choice but to exchange it for a spirit that listens well.”

It wasn’t too bad for Ray.

Anyway, isn’t the spirit that will replace him discreetly waiting?

For a moment, Soonbok, who imagined that Hesilia would sit in the seat of the spirit king, suddenly smiled brightly.

– I’ve been in one place too much, so what’s the point of itching these days? I just wanted to exercise, but you know my heart very well.

Awesome—!

The sound was so loud that I was worried that I might break my teeth.

“Go and take a good look. Try not to stand out.”

– …All right.

“Oh. You might as well leave a letter behind.”

Ray rummaged through his arms and handed him a carefully folded letter.

Although he accepted the submission, he was somewhat unsure.

– What is this?

“Hope of the knights. And the cold reality.”

Again, only an incomprehensible answer came back.

Soonbok grumbled.

– Let me understand you.

However, not Aira’s cuteness, but only Subok’s protest, he was banned from entering before Ray heard it.

Soonbok let out a sigh and finally took a reluctant step.

Even at the top level, he’s still an errand boy.

His condition was just pitiful.

* * *

Soonbok clicked his tongue as he saw the knight turning around to find the territory in case someone was followed.

How could he avoid even the third-rate information guild’s pursuit with such laxity?

The knight, who got a horse and ran day and night without rest, headed for a huge territory, which was the territory of a marquis called ‘Veron’.

Soonbok blew the whistle.

– Whiyu. The Marquis trades in slaves. It’s worth knowing the realm.

If you are a marquis, you are a great noble next to the duke.

If you put your mind to it, it was a position where you could wipe out a small territory on the periphery.

After passing through a huge gate that could accommodate four wagons at the same time, the knight got off his horse and hurriedly looked for a place to go.

Soonbok watched the scene quietly and waited for the article to come out.

I wonder if two hours passed while hiding my presence like that.

The courteous knight mounted his horse again with a serious face.

It seems that he is thinking of going back since he told the story.

‘Poor fellows.’

Since he was caught by a monster that he couldn’t help but be caught, the hardships ahead are clear to his eyes.

Soonbok, who glanced at the room, placed the letter Ray had handed over to him on the empty table.

Of course, I didn’t see the contents.

However, he intended to keep his seat until the noble opened the letter himself.

There is a risk that someone else will read the letter or intercept it.

‘If I don’t complete the mission properly, I’m sure a disgrace will fall.’

It’s not a bad order, but it’s a steam bath.

That moment.

A woman accompanied by a young and handsome man entered the room.

The woman let out a sigh as the ground disappeared.

“There are no knights who can do anything properly… Are you saying there are not so many talented people in this land?”

“Do not worry. I am by your side, the Marquis of Veron.”

At the mention of the marquis’s wife, Sunbok’s eyes were young.

The woman frowned slightly.

“Bian. I would have told you to call me Bian.”

“I made a mistake. Mr. Bian.”

“It’s called. Rather…”

She was about to say something and found a letter on the table.

The pattern is a little unique, so it shows interest.

“A letter… how long has it been since…”

I opened the letter and looked at the contents, and there was no time to get wet with emotion.

The woman shook her hands.

The young man questioned him.

“Why is that?”

He trembled like an aspen tree, like a very frightened person.

“Oh nothing. Let’s go get some rest.”

“Ugh. All right.”

At the end of the rest, the young man kisses the back of the woman’s hand, and leads the woman’s hand as he leaves the room.

Left alone, Soonbok tilted his head.

– I didn’t know you were the Marquis’s wife. But to hear that the family is openly having an affair… I don’t know how this guy’s family works.

Besides, what the hell was written in the letter that made me so frightened?

I was curious about it, but I am afraid of the future if I watch it carelessly.

Thinking that he must have made a rough threat, Soonbok left the marquis family with a light heart.

Now all that remains is to go and report.

* * *

Ray prepared to camp in the woods.

Unfortunately, he didn’t bring a leather backpack from Celia’s castle, so all he had was a dagger hanging from his waist.

Mien and Mace Moros, who are now accustomed to camping, wiped the ground skillfully.

He pulled out stones that might be in the way and swept the ground once.

That alone created a comfortable enough space for a person to lie down.

Grass was removed from the bush and spread on the ground, and stones that had been pre-roasted over a bonfire were planted in the surrounding ground, and warm energy emanated from the ground.

The captain of the knights, who had been left tied up in a corner, asked in a cracked voice.

“What are you going to do with us?”

Ray, chewing on the beef jerky, glanced at him.

“I intend to demand a ransom.”

“ransom? Do you want money?”

“No matter what, you can’t buy someone else’s knights with just money. All I want is a corresponding price.”

“If it’s a price…”

Lay, who lowered her butt under the shade of a tree, faced the knight commander.

“I intend to test the one you serve. Is it really a relationship of trust, as you think, or a one-sided relationship between a dog and its owner?”

“You are rude! How dare you try to destroy my lord!”

As the knight commander gnashed his teeth and glared at him, Ray scratched his ear.

“I tried to help out of pity for not being able to tell whether it was poop or soybean paste. I said that this is why it is not the law to harvest black-headed beasts.”

‘I’m afraid I’ll just tip it over.’ It is very bizarre to mumble.
