To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 510
Episode 510 Reunion with Soonbok (7)
Rei purifies all the stone statues on the 16th floor.
It’s been a long time since the mana in the body has already exceeded the limit capacity.
There was no place to store the overflowing mana, so it was spewing out to the surroundings, but it was sweating to control it so that it might become poison to the goblins.
After getting rid of all the private areas on the 16th floor, his daily routine became simple.
“I will be back.”
“Please go.”
Even the goblins, who are used to going out with him now, don’t ask where Rey is going.
Passing through the familiar hallway and going down the cave, there is no doubt that there is a stone gate covered with moss.
Let’s push the door silently.
Kugoogugung-
The old study has been revealed.
In front of him, a cute girl with bobbed hair was smiling brightly.
The unique scent of books aged finely over the years melts into the soft scent of black tea.
Unlike the first time, I felt quite comfortable here.
Ray lightly stroked Mian’s head.
“Why did you come early today?”
“I don’t have much to do anymore.”
“Then tell me again!”
she said with her eyes shining.
One day, Ray told Mien about the world.
For Mien, who has lived only in the study, the story of the outside world must have been a refreshing shock.
A story about an adventurer going on an adventure.
A story about knights competing against monsters to protect the one they serve.
All of them were monotonous, but Mien listened with great pleasure.
Among them, Mien’s favorite story was about a saint.
Ray shook his head as if he didn’t know why.
“I don’t know why you like this story.”
Then, Mian replied with a gentle smile.
“Isn’t it romantic to have a heart directed only to God?”
At first glance, it was a joke, but when she said it after being captured by the Black Room and forcibly turned into a saint, I feel strange.
It is a heart directed towards God.
Can we really call it romantic?
There are people who disappeared because they gave their heart to God to someone else.
Can we call it romantic when love is broken by God and faced with tragedy?
Ray said in a slightly dry tone.
“It’s not that you’re giving your heart to God, it’s that God made you give it to yourself.”
At his words, Mian shut her mouth.
Does it mean that God created love without considering human will?
Speaking like that, for some reason, God seems like a villain.
“So you’re saying that saints are just love created by God?”
“What is it? In some places, saints and saints are regarded as lovers of gods.”
Isn’t that also good to be God’s lover?
Ray lightly slapped him on the back of the head, probably realizing that Mien was delusional.
Bahah-!
“Aaaagh!”
Mien protested, stroking the back of her head at a pain she had never felt before.
“It hurts! you idiot! Didn’t you hear that hitting the head makes you an idiot!?”
“I think it’s okay because I’m already an idiot?”
“Give me this! Confiscate tea!”
While talking, Mian was smiling.
After living with ‘black people’ who can’t speak, it seems that they are quite happy living like this.
Of course, it was not easy for Ray to touch Mien.
‘No matter how much it is, the fact that Mien is the nucleus of the dungeon does not change. I can’t get out unless I get rid of this child.’
I planned to find out more about Mien over time, but the more I dug, the more I found out about her dark past.
Not long after entering the study, Ray realized that this was one of her childhood memories.
The ‘black people’ she is calling are also, to be expected, the figures of the black room.
Not being able to go out of the study itself.
It must be because the fact that you can’t talk to people in black is just a remnant of Mien.
In addition, the movements of the black people have changed since a few days ago.
Should I say that the number of days approaching Mien has increased in some way?
He would be nothing more than an intruder in the dungeon.
Since such an intruder met the core of the dungeon, it was only natural that something unexpected would happen.
‘Somehow I don’t feel well. Time is running out.’
On the outside, he pretended to be carefree, but on the inside he was nervous.
What if one day Mian disappeared.
He probably won’t be able to leave the dungeon peacefully.
* * *
Zeke, Eucliwood, and the guards who serve the saint were all gathered together at Zeke’s mansion.
Even though Ray ordered them to live in mutual aid, watching them go around and live as they wished, it made me wonder if it was too innocent.
“I want to ask why the Bone family’s mansion became a meeting place.”
Eucliwood answered Zeke’s question while drinking tea.
“We, the Belacroix family, are busy with tax management. It is absurd to invite guests at a time like this.”
Rather, I was insulted.
Hongyoung, the representative of the receiving committee, said in a sinking voice.
“Receptionists, by their very nature, do not own mansions.”
Each of them had their own excuse, but to sum it up, it would mean that they chose this place because their own mansion was easy.
Zeke let out a sigh.
“so. What is it that brought everyone together today, Eucliwood?”
“It is to tell the story of the saint.”
Everyone’s eyes turned to her at Eucliwood’s words.
Ray’s story.
He has been imprisoned in the Devil’s Realm for over a year.
Now there is no way to confirm whether he is alive or dead, so his story was implicitly taboo within the Holy Kingdom.
Nevertheless, the fact that Eucliwood brought up the story means that there was a trick.
Even the dark young, who had been quiet to begin with, openly paid attention.
“What follows is a top secret within the Holy Land. As I am speaking to you, it is a situation where punishment is unavoidable, but the Holy Son is at stake, so I left behind the strict decree. In other words, when it is revealed, it is a story that everyone is an accomplice in leaking confidential information. I won’t force it, so if you want to quit, please raise your hand.”
With the horse, Eucliwood looked around.
Seven receptionists.
Zeke.
No one raised a hand.
She spoke quietly as if she was happy.
“If there was a person who said he would fall out, he would have cut his throat with all his might, but fortunately, there doesn’t seem to be one among us.”
Saying that with an expressionless face sent chills down his spine, even as a receptionist.
Eucliwood pulled out a small leather pouch from his bosom.
Outwardly, there was nothing special about it except that the leather was luxurious.
However, when she took out the magic crystal contained in it, everyone’s eyes were stained with astonishment.
Each and every one of these people gathered here is a person comparable to the master class.
Undoubtedly, there was no way that they, who were particularly sensitive to mana, would not be able to sense the presence of mana contained in the magic stone.
“Mana? Why are there still magic stones that contain mana?”
“Nonsense! After the disappearance of mana, magic tools must have disappeared!”
Eucliwood replied to Soyoung’s words.
“According to an accidental opportunity, I found out that mana dwells when you bring a magic crystal to the entrance of the Demonic Realm. However, if it is not the highest quality magic stone, it will break because it cannot handle the mana inside the demon world.”
Holding the magic stone, she uttered a starter word.
“Ice.”
Frost sat on Eucliwood’s hand.
The air began to freeze, and then ice formed.
Whoaaah-!
Even though it was only light 1st circle magic, they saw magic for the first time after ‘Disappear’.
“If there is a magic stone, this kind of magic is ridiculous.”
surely.
If it was the highest quality magic stone, even if it was a large-scale magic in the 5th circle, it would be possible to use it once or twice.
In the case of sword masters, it felt like they were strengthening their bodies by using mana in their bodies, so it would take a period of adaptation to use them, but high circle mages used mana in the air, so there was no need for that at all.
Eucliwood took out a bag of magic stones for each person and said.
“Then I will tell you. Except for me, the three of us are going to rescue the saint with the magic stones. It doesn’t change that there is no mana just because it’s inside the demon realm. The person who can break through by distributing the mana of the magic stones well is the right person.”
“I have a question.”
As Zeke spoke, Eucliwood looked at him.
“Tell me.”
“I know how to rescue the lord, but why are there three people? The more people there are, the higher the success rate will be.”
“It’s a simple matter.”
At Zeke’s question, she tapped the magic crystal on the desk.
“To put it simply, the number of magic stones is insufficient. It is the halfman guild that is supporting magic stones in this castle country. After the extinction, the value of magic stones has decreased, and now, after more than a year, the merchants specializing in magic stones have disappeared. That statement coincides with the saying that the Halfman Merchants are the only ones that started trading magic stones.”
Eucliwood, who had been quenching his thirst with black tea for a while, continued.
“Since this holy country buys all the top-quality magic stones at random, it is only natural that the Halfman Merchant Merchants want to make money unless they are idiots. However, as I just said, the halfman guild is the only guild that handles magic stones. I’ll use the power of this family to trick my eyes and bring a few magic stones, but I can’t bring them in large quantities. Also, since it’s a job that shouldn’t be seen, you can’t use the Halfman Mercenary on your own.”
Soyoung nodded.
“Then, the person who has the least impact should go. If you fall for someone like you, you might get suspicious.”
“It is as you say. A small receiver.”
“Don’t call me that!”
“I, who has to keep an eye on the outside of the Devil’s Nest, is excluded from this job. In other words, you have no choice but to do the rest.”
She looked around the crowd.
Then there was a heavy silence.
“….”
“..”
The Devil’s Land is dangerous.
If you go in wrong, you will most likely not be able to escape death.
However, it is a predestined fact that you will be greatly moved to know that you have come to save yourself through such a danger.
Each of them had a different imagination.
Gulp-
They looked at each other and spoke almost simultaneously.
“Let me go.”
“I’ll go.”
“As expected, I have no choice but to go.”
“Here, this body…”
Their eyes met.
Zeke laughed out loud.
“ha ha ha. stop kidding It is impossible for me to fall into the task of saving the lord. How much more can we trust those who have not reached the master of swordsmanship?”
He emphasized that he is a sword master.
At Zeke’s words, Hongyoung shook her head.
“I don’t know what lurks inside the Demonic Realm. If a fight can be avoided, avoiding it as much as possible is the way to save mana. How can you trust a bully who runs around relying only on strength? In that sense, I, who has experience in immersion, should go…”
“Hey, Archangel?”
Soyoung continued.
“It is as you say. I’m weak against brute strength, but I’m good at stealth and gathering speed information. It doesn’t matter who it is, but leaving me out means the future is clearly visible.”
Heukyoung also said without losing.
“I… um… I want to go.”
Eucliwood admired their behavior without yielding even a single step.
“If you have seen this, the Holy Son might be hoping that no one will come.”
It must have been a joke, but no one knew that it was the correct answer.
Afterwards, they continued to argue day and night, claiming that they were the right person.
