To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 465

Episode 465: The Increasing Number of Slaves (5)

Rei’s cooking received rave reviews from the Royal Kitchen.

After seeing the simple meal, the head chef, who tried to scold the chef, even said, “Why don’t you understand?”

That’s how leipyo risotto went up to the royal family.

Deogard looked down at the dish for a while and exclaimed, ‘Oh!’

“This is the first scent. You mean a saint made this?”

The chamberlain stepped back as if to apologize.

“yes. It is said that the saint touched the dishes no matter what wind blew.”

“Good. After all, a man wants to do anything for the person he likes.”

As I spoke, I looked at Celestia, and she blushed slightly.

The chamberlain, not knowing the meaning, simply lowered his head.

“Then let’s try it.”

King Theogard slightly lifted the risotto with a spoon.

Small grains of rice clump together nicely.

It is similar to soup, but also slightly different.

Even though the king had eaten a lot of various foods, it was the first time he had cooked something like this.

‘Oh, what the hell did you see and make this kind of food? There’s no way this kind of food was popular in the Holy Land. It’s amazing.’

In addition to medicine, magic blacksmith and now even cooking.

The more I got to know him, the more mysterious he became.

Let’s take a bite of food with a good smile.

“Mmmmm…”

King Deogard chewed slowly with a mysterious expression on his face.

Celestia also mumbles and moves her mouth after him.

Without saying who was first, the two opened their eyes wide and murmured.

“Delicious!”

“It’s delicious… but this…”

I was looking forward to it, but it was a much more unique taste than I expected.

First of all, the grains of rice were very easy to chew.

Thanks to this, the throat is soft, and patients and children do not seem to have any discomfort when eating.

The grains of rice gradually crumbled and rolled around in the mouth, giving a savory taste, so it was perfect for King Deogard’s taste.

But it wasn’t just that that surprised them.

The moment you put food in your mouth.

Surprisingly, a small amount of purified mana flowed down their gullets.

No matter how much the royal family eats, there are foods that have been split into small pieces of elixir, but the royal family was not wealthy enough to provide such well-refined, high-purity mana as a meal.

What’s even more surprising is that mana has a taste.

Mana, who met with food, struggled a little.

Every time that happened, I felt a refreshing feeling that made my whole body go cold.

Celestia does not know, but only Deogard, who has reached the level of a sword master, can only guess to some extent.

‘I can’t believe that mana has taste…’

He tried to pour his mana into the risotto.

Then, as if a backlash occurs when mana is injected into an aura user, it becomes a counter-elasticity and returns.

I thought a mere elixir would shed anti-elasticity!

He forgot his etiquette and shouted.

“Ah! This is more than an elixir!”

The chief chamberlain blinked at the king’s sudden action.

“Why is that?”

“The fact that you can taste the mana means that the mana contained in this food has been refined to the point of being spherical. I’ve taken elixirs for a long time in my life, but I’ve never seen an elixir like this one! What did the saint say as he handed over the food?”

When Deogarde inadvertently grabbed his shoulder and shook it, the chamberlain broke into a cold sweat.

“That’s it…”

“Try to speak quickly!”

“Seongjae Seo just told me to enjoy it.”

Have a good meal.

Could it be that the elixir of this high-purity mana mass?

King Theogard shook his head.

“You must have wanted something! Think carefully!”

Otherwise, he would not have been able to hand over such an elixir without muttering.

“I’m sorry… I haven’t heard anything.”

“Huh…”

He sighed at the words of the chamberlain.

Even if people like it, it’s a oil bunsuji.

How could he hand over the refined elixir without expecting anything in return?

“You have been greatly favored by the saint.”

Deep down, King Deogard, who was contemplating a special order as a reward for Ray, hardened his mind with the current risotto.

‘If it’s a pity to give a special order to such an outstanding person, it will surely be passed down as a small person in my posterity. cancer.’

I received so much more than I did in the past.

You can’t even repay the favor with just one special order.

It was already a debt that could not be fully repaid even if Ray had financed it by ordering the Halfman Merchant before the war broke out.

Deogard emptied the risotto clean.

He ate so cleanly that he was ready to lick the bottom of the plate.

he said, wiping his lips.

“As soon as tomorrow morning, let the nobles and saints come to Daejeon.”

“All right.”

Deogard looked down at the empty plate with a complicated face.

The mana I felt in my body from before was not the same as before.

It was a little bit, but it was enough to advance his own mana as a sword master, so he noticed before that it was not an ordinary elixir.

I owe you a lot, so I think it’s time to pay it back.

* * *

While King Theogard was dreaming of paying off his debt, Ray’s complexion hardened as he ate the risotto he had made.

“This is a lump of mana.”

They say that there is no problem if you eat it yourself, but if someone who cannot handle mana or has not reached the level eats it, there will surely be a problem.

How dare you give such poison to the royal family!

You should have checked properly!

As I clutched my head and groaned, ‘Euuu’, soon after, an attendant approached with quick steps.

“His Majesty the King wants to see you tomorrow morning.”

It’s a big deal.

There must have been a problem with the mana risotto.

If there is a problem, it is natural to take responsibility.

Ray also had no intention of avoiding it.

but.

‘Where would it be if a gentleman who became a sword master… noticed and prevented a problem before it started?’

King Deogard was a little savage.

Even if there was a problem, it wouldn’t be to the extent that people would die, but since the mana contained in the risotto was mana, he could have been sick for a few days.

It is, of course, your responsibility to take care of it.

He presumed that King Theogard was also calling him to question him.

When the morning dawned, Ray touched his clothes and tried to move toward Daejeon.

But something was strange.

As soon as the door opened, several maids lowered their heads and spoke more politely than usual.

“I will see you.”

There was a difference between the existing ‘I will guide you’ and ‘I will serve you’ as much as the sun and the ground.

The royal attendants serve only those related to the royal family.

Even so, the ladies-in-waiting used the expression that they served.

Although doubtful, Ray, thinking that there must have been a mistake, headed for Daejeon without thinking.

The face of Deogard, who was sitting in the seat of honor, was the first to be seen as soon as the door of the huge palace was opened.

Aristocrats with high ranks were sitting around him, and as soon as they saw Ray, they got up and bowed.

However, the greeting was a little strange.

“Meet the second duke of Celia.”

“Count Perez is meeting the Duke.”

Prince?

Did the Prince of Silos come?

Ray looked around.

There was no one around Hana.

“Here you are.”

“yes. Is there a problem?”

When I asked with a nervous feeling, Deogard spoke with a suspicious smile.

“I have something to say to the saint. let’s sit down first Everyone can’t sit down because of you.”

At the king’s words, Ray found a seat anywhere he could see and sat down.

Unfortunately, the last seat left was right in front of the king, so Ray faced Deogard.

Ray, who had previously read the atmosphere incredibly well, sensed a strange air current flowing inside the Great War.

‘This is something strange.’

He looked around anxiously.

King Deogard, who had been watching the scene quietly, insinuated luck.

“The saint has helped us a lot in the past. They helped in the war and sent letters to enemy countries to give them a chance to become allies. Not only in terms of money, but also in terms of military force and politics, Celia owes a lot to the saint.”

“Never mind. It’s about helping people in difficult times.”

“Silia never forgets grace. If you tell me not to mind, we’ll just return it ten times a hundred times more.”

After clearing his throat for a while, King Theogarde looked at Ray eagerly.

“I will issue a special decree in the name of King Celia Vi Deogard. I will appoint Saint Ray as Duke, the highest title of Celia, and make the unexplored Iria Mountains my second principality. His grace shone on Celia like the warm sunlight, so let’s make the Duke’s last name ‘Soleil’.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the nobles rose from their seats.

“Meet Prince Soleil!”

“Meet Prince Soleil!”

As they spewed fluttering mana, a pleasant breeze blew in the Great War.

A weak wind tickling my bangs.

Every time it gently touched my face, I could feel the vitality like breathing.

The heat that seems to yearn for something.

The temperature inside Daejeon, neither hot nor lukewarm, warmed my skin moderately.

Ray, who had become the king in an instant, looked around.

In order to work in Celia, the title of nobility was just as necessary.

I was thinking of becoming a baron or a viscount, but I never thought I would become a duke overnight.

“I think it’s an undeserved title for me.”

“If the saint refuses, saying it is too much, I don’t know if there is anyone in the world who can claim to be the duke of Celia.”

“There will definitely be a backlash.”

“My choice will not change.”

Finally, King Deogard raised mana to the front.

His mana, which reached the highest level of Master, was tangible and visible to the naked eye.

Blue mana beautifully decorated the inside of the battlefield.

Like snow falling from the sky, the mana crumbled into small pieces and brought a feeling of refreshment.

Ray, who looked at it for a while, released mana like them.

Then his mana consumed all the mana in the Great War.

Mana that is so deep and pure that you can’t see the end.

Ray’s mana, imbued with the spirit of words, spread to every corner of the Great War.

Under the prayers of the Absolute, it was difficult for even a sword master to dare to breathe.

Ray opened his mouth slowly.

“The surname ‘Soleil’ given by His Majesty the King. I will be grateful.”

The second duke came to the Kingdom of Silia.
