To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 538

Episode 538 To the Kingdom of Heron (4)

Ray and the others covered a considerable distance in just a few hours.

The wagon’s wheels were a bit worn out, but it was fortunate that the wheels were intact even after running this far on rough mountain roads.

“Certainly, it’s good to have a good horse.”

Ray tapped the horse’s butt.

Then the horses start to play, as if they are in a good mood.

The man who was sitting on a rock and taking a break looked at me curiously.

“Heron’s horses don’t usually accept someone’s touch.”

As if giving herself over to her spouse, she readily approaches her and even rubs her cheeks, making her question whether she is a well-respected horse with high self-respect.

“ha ha ha. Just a natural stable keeper.”

It was a little too much for the son of the baron family, but after two days of hardships, they became quite close before they knew it.

“Do you have any tips for taming horses?

When even Gide said that, Ray scratched his head for a moment before replying.

“well.”

I don’t even know.

It wasn’t a long life, but it was the first time in my life that I was popular with horses.

When he slips out his hand, the horses push out their snouts to take his hand.

The men who were watching it burst into laughter.

“her. Amazing.”

The sight of them glaring at each other while dripping saliva is not a word, but it is safe to say that it is a war of nerves between the women.

“Tsk tsk tsk.”

After kicking his tongue and sweeping his snout, he now gets on his knees and groans.

I don’t know if these are dogs or not.

“Anyway, the man who left to find the valley is a bit late. We have to start soon.”

The sun is setting soon

Even though it’s out of the mountains, once you get lost in this thick forest, it’s quite a headache.

The men also looked around to see if they were worried.

“How far has this guy gone?”

“They said they’d come back when the sun goes down, so let’s wait a little longer.”

At that, Ray shook his head.

“After the sun has completely set, it is difficult for us to move. Now that it’s like this, I’m just going to sleep here for today.”

At that, the men looked at the carriage with worried eyes.

“But this place is completely in the middle of the forest. If there is even a village of monsters, it will be dangerous.”

“If it were just us, that wouldn’t matter, but the lady is here…”

As one of the escorts glanced at the carriage, Silveria let out a snort as if her pride was hurt.

“I don’t care. It’s because the family learned swordsmanship enough to take care of itself.”

She is very interested in swordsmanship, and since she was a child, she trained her sword with the body of a woman.

Thanks to that, I was able to vomit the spirit of having the Aura user right in front of me.

Of course, considering her age, it could be said that it was a remarkable performance, but in actual combat, her sword skills were only about cutting down goblins.

If they had to deal with three or four of them, Silveria, who had almost no real combat experience, would not be able to last for a few minutes.

The men knew about it, but they pretended not to know and were busy courting Sylveria.

“I know. If it’s the lady’s swordsmanship, monsters won’t be a problem.”

“of course. However, those of us in charge of the escort cannot ignore even the slightest danger to the young lady. I’m sorry if I offended you.”

“joy. Then it’s decided. I’m going to stay here today. It’s okay, brother?”

“Yes. I hope so.”

With the permission of Gide, the leader, the camping site was already decided.

The men sighed in order not to be noticed by Sylveria.

* * *

When the campsite was decided, Ray let out a euphoric exclamation inwardly.

‘It’s fortunate that Sylveria has an arrogant personality.’

He who does not grasp his own strength is an idiot.

Besides, in reality, those guys are the first to die.

The sons of nobles, who have been trained in the swordsmanship of their family and have drunk magical potions that help increase mana, are more arrogant than most adventurers when it comes to subjects that are weaker.

That’s why he was able to settle down in a dangerous place while ignoring the advice of the escorts.

Ray looked around.

There was no price, but the area is high, so it is perfect for exploring the surroundings.

For him, he dared to suggest lodging here.

“There’s no better place to look at the movements of the tailing guys.”

Glancing around the son-in-law, even the movements of small animals caught my eye.

Among them was a man riding a horse in the distance.

I don’t know where I’m going, but judging from the nervous look on my face, it seems that I’ve noticed something out of the ordinary.

Ray shifted his gaze to the man’s back.

People whose faces were covered with dark brown cloth were chasing after the man.

Looking at the mana he felt, it was clear that they had been following the group from before.

‘Even if I pretend, I’m not in a black room.’

Heukbang uses their own unique footsteps.

He strangely lifts his right foot with his left foot as an axis, and when he reaches the stage, he can naturally glide and move on the ground like a snake.

Skilled players could even put their opponents in front of them and cut off their breath before the opponents even realized it.

To put it simply, it’s like a step made to kill others efficiently.

However, in their case, it was a little different.

Looking at the clothes, it looks like an assassin, but somehow the movement resembles a knight.

The appearance of chasing the man with a sword in an honest manner did not seem to be an assassin sent by the Assassin’s Guild.

Ray tilted his head.

“If you’re not in the black room, who the hell are you?”

Was there any reason to attack the Countess of Heron Kingdom, which was not very famous in the first place?

The gap between the man on the horse and the trailers behind him gradually narrowed.

At that, Ray got up from his seat, intending to move slowly.

* * *

Sylveria was in a bad mood.

“joy. Do you think that I, the daughter of a swordsman family, will be beaten by a mere monster?”

I couldn’t even take a proper bath for the past few days, so my nerves were sharp, but thinking that I had been insulted made me feel uncomfortable.

I accidentally kicked a stone on the ground.

Took-!

A stone that flew far away hit a tree and fell.

Then, from the back of the bush where the pebbles had fallen, Ray stepped out of the way.

“Why are you angry at a tree that is standing still? It kills your personality.”

Sylveria stuttered, confused as if she thought she was being rude.

“What does it matter? More than that, why are you coming out of there?”

“That’s what I’m going to say. There are still a lot of monsters, so why do you come all the way here by yourself? Go back to the carriage.”

Silveria’s pride was further cracked when she told the subject, who seemed the weakest among the group, to go back saying that it was dangerous to her.

Having come to her senses, she turned her head away.

“no, I do not want.”

“You guys said that too. This unexplored place, like no other, is a place that even adventurers avoid. Don’t be embarrassed for nothing and go back quietly.”

It was a heartfelt advice, but to Silveria it only sounded like a mockery.

she said, clenching her fists.

“…I didn’t neglect my sword enough to be ignored by you.”

Talking in a high-pitched voice, he flits past him.

The situation became really embarrassing as they went deeper into the forest as if rebelling against the word to return.

“I don’t have time to calm down the gangsters…”

I felt Sylveria’s presence, so I ran to send her back, but it seems to have backfired.

Even at this time, the life of a man dealing with a trailer depends on the alert.

No matter how weak the shadows were compared to the assassins in the black room, they were tough opponents to deal with alone.

Looking at where it was heading, it seemed to be near the wagon, but in the worst case, all the men in the camp seemed to be dead.

“If you do this, the uncles will be in trouble.”

Ray, who pressed the hood of the robe he had brought deep, kicked the ground with force with his toe.

* * *

The escorts, who were about to go hunting to prepare dinner, stiffened their faces at the sound of weapons from afar.

“That was…”

“It must have been a metallic sound. It doesn’t look like the monsters are fighting each other.”

“It’s not unusual at all. You will meet the young master. I will go and look and come back.”

“Please.”

A man with a shaggy beard mounted a horse.

Fearfully, the noise of the sergeant gradually grew louder and louder.

Chaeeng-!

visor-!

The two swords clash at breakneck speed.

“Who is there!”

As the man rode his horse through the bush, he saw his comrades surrounded by five or six men in black over a huge rock.

cried the man covered in blood.

“Don’t come! It’s a trap!”

“This is…”

While the bewildered man hesitated for a while.

Three men in black who were hiding in the bushes took over the man’s back.

“Heh heh. You have crawled on your feet and limbs.”

“Who are you guys!”

“Stupid bastard. Did you think that if I asked about your identity, you would answer me kindly?”

Along with the horse, stab the horse in the thigh with a sharpened dagger.

The startled horse screamed and raised its paws, and another sword flew in, aiming for the gap.

The man urgently drew his sword and cut it off.

Kaaaang-!

Because he swung it in a hurry, he could not resolve all of his career on the sword.

Shocked by the single blow, he jumped off his horse.

“To come with a small sword…”

“Ho-oh. It’s quite good for blocking my sword.”

The black man grinned.

A cold sweat broke out on the man’s back when he saw it.

There is no way that a mere assassin could pull out the sword aura.

It is said that they are not bandits or contractors.

He tensed his whole body and raised his sword again.

“What do you want!”

“Give me Sylvester’s kid and bitch. Then don’t go beyond just your lives.”

“gibberish! Do you think I will be fooled by that!”

“Heh heh. You’re not blind at all.”

The black man swung his sword again.

It was only a light horizontal slash, but the man had to do everything in his power to prevent it.

Chae Ae Ae-!

Kaaaang-!

After exchanging several battles, the man’s sword aura gradually faded.

‘Keueueugh… Mana was disturbed.’

The first blow caused internal injuries, so every time he draws mana, his stomach cries.

As if playing with such a man, the black man’s attack continued freely.

“Hahahaha! He claimed to be a master of swordsmanship, but was it only this much!”

“Shut up, you coward!”

While talking, as he hit the extension sword, the swordsman’s sword speed gradually increased, as if he was excited.

As the speed was added to the already heavy sword, the man’s wrists throbbed to the point of going crazy just by facing the sword.

Kaaaang-!

Caan-!

Even though he was dying, he blocked all the sword attacks, and the black man admired a little.

“It’s about entertainment. It’s a feeling. If you give me Sylvester’s baby, I’ll spare her.”

From what you say, it doesn’t seem like sheer lies.

At that, the man’s pupils shook greatly.

‘If only I could save the lady…’

Looking at their skills, it’s only a matter of time before they die.

If so, wouldn’t it be best to save someone who can be saved?

“I am…”

When he finally decides on an answer and tries to say something he shouldn’t say.

A figure wearing a brown robe appeared over the bush.

“You are doing something fun.” Light steps as if walking.

For an instant, the eyes of the crowd focused on him.

After a long time, the excitement was broken, and the displeased black man wrinkled his face.
