To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 60

Episode 60 Baptism Ceremony (3)

His polite words penetrated the hearts of the listeners.

The most outstanding among the saints of all time asked that the one who has the power to crush everyone be his strength.

It made the listeners feel something boiling in their hearts.

Is it because he saw meteor using magic, or is it because of the strong human scent that the saint exudes?

That was good anyway.

At the first speech of the new saint, their hearts were already inclined.

It wasn’t much different even for nobles.

Some were fascinated by his overwhelming strength, while others were attracted to the fact that despite having such strength at a young age, he was not affected by his power and still showed respect to the people.

“Me meteo…”

“9th circle… great mage…”

Covering their mouths, they were startled at the tremendous sound they dared to spit out.

9th Circle Great Mage.

The place might be in danger with just the aftermath of the name if you teased your mouth arbitrarily.

There was one thing they didn’t know.

Meteor created by Ray was nothing more than an ‘imitation’.

That didn’t mean it was less powerful. Rather, if it exploded at close range, the fake Meteor from before would be stronger.

Of course, it costs more mana than casting Meteor, though. Probably no one other than Ray could make such a fake meteo.

To put it simply, Ray couldn’t create Meteor yet.

The only thing he did was to help people believe in him by making his words realistic.

‘Public sentiment is the foundation of solid power.’

I didn’t think of staying active in the Holy Land for a long time.

So, more power was needed. In order to be able to leave the Holy Land when he wants.

Moreover, it is true that while he is living in the Holy Kingdom, he will help the people achieve their dreams.

When public sentiment is stable and people live well, strong national power is born.

It wasn’t just him who knew that.

Eucliwood stood behind him and looked at Ray’s back.

‘The christening hasn’t even started yet, but it’s holding back public sentiment… To the extent that even nobles can’t dare disobey.’

Is this even possible? At the age of only 15, he proceeds as if he had planned everything.

No, it was stupid to talk about my age now.

Wouldn’t it be a meaningless act to consider the age of the person who summoned Meteor?

Ray spoke with his voice amplified.

“This is the end of what I want to tell you. Trust me and follow me.”

He spoke and immediately came down from the stage. Cheers broke out among the people as they watched him turn around and approach Eucliwood without hesitation.

“Wow!”

“I will follow you wherever you go!”

“Long live Saint Ray!”

“hurray!”

There was a huge uproar. It was as if someone had appeared who would change my life all at once.

The aristocrats before the baptism all stood up and clapped at the cheers that resonated painfully in the ears despite the considerable distance.

Ray’s speech moved the hearts of not only the people but also the nobles.

Listening to their applause and cheers, Ray asked Eucliwood.

“Where should I go now?”

“…Please keep your voice down. It is difficult to dare to bear.”

I don’t know about Rey, but this is the utmost respect she can.

She is a servant but at the same time an aristocrat.

Never say anything like this to someone you truly respect.

Whether or not he knew such a deep meaning, Ray immediately stopped talking.

“Is that so? I was also uncomfortable.”

“…”

“So where should we go now?”

“…Let me guide you.”

Eucliwood, who guided him without a chance to be surprised by the rapidly changing tone, stopped in a circular garden large enough for one person to lie down.

Around the circle, flowers were in full bloom and grass soared, but the circle in the middle was neat.

It wasn’t to the point of being uncomfortable.

Eucliwood politely raised his hand and pointed to the center.

“Please lie down here.”

Ray said at her words.

“Are you not praying?”

As far as he knew, Inrye was a ritual to pray to God.

But do you mean praying while lying down?

“In-rye is the first prayer to God, so you should do it in the most comfortable position.”

“That’s why you’re lying down.”

As we talked and lay down there, Eucliwood took a step back.

Ray lay down and closed his eyes.

‘So… what should I pray for now…?’

Even when I made up my mind to pray, I didn’t know what to say.

Eucliwood opened his mouth, probably knowing that feeling well.

“You can do it comfortably. As if asking for a conversation with God…”

Conversation… What on earth do you mean to talk to God?

Recalling her words to pray comfortably, Ray strained his whole body and tried to talk to him in his heart.

‘Um… Hello.’

….

The answer is silence. Thinking that he was indeed a shy god, he spoke again.

‘…if God called me to the holy kingdom, you should answer me.’

But no sound was heard.

What are you doing by calling someone? However, less than 30 seconds had passed since I prayed.

He decided to be patient.

‘okay. If I keep talking to her, she’ll answer even if it’s annoying.’

So comforted, Ray continued to talk.

* * *

Half a day has passed. I thought he would answer me because it was annoying, but I couldn’t hear a single word of reply, as if I was blocked because it was so annoying.

By this point, I was more annoyed than tired.

Isn’t it too much to do? It is like inviting guests to the house and the host playing elsewhere.

I couldn’t wait any longer for God’s answer.

What people were doing could not be seen hidden by the surrounding flowers, but it was clear that they were bored.

Perhaps the only one who doesn’t get bored in this situation is Eucliwood.

Half a day had passed, but she, standing next to him in the initial position, did not show even the slightest movement as before.

‘It’s amazing.’

Even herself lying down is exhausted, but how much strength must she have while standing?

It was a problem that Ray, who cared for his servants, could not overlook.

‘then. It can’t be done.’

Thinking that this was for her sake and not for himself, he opened his eyes.

He ended up thinking things that criminals’ brains could never think.

Ray got up.

Eucliwood reacted to that appearance.

“…Have you already received a response?”

At her words, he spewed out lies without spitting.

“huh. He is also a god… His voice does not leave my head.”

When he looked up at the sky with the eyes of a country bachelor remembering his vague first love, Eucliwood was undoubtedly fooled.

“You are truly amazing. Even Iriel-nim, who is said to be the fastest so far, took a day.”

“…okay?”

“He is also a saint.”

“…”

Every time she praised Ray, it felt like an Earth Spear was stuck in his chest one by one.

A single unsuspecting glance squeezed him like a rag.

said Eucliwood, pointing to the baptismal font.

“I will let you know that the ceremony is over. In the meantime, please wait at the baptismal hall.”

“…huh.”

Ray trudged to the baptismal hall.

Arriving at the baptismal hall through the beautiful garden, Iriel was surprised to see him.

“Has the saint come already?”

There were whispers all around.

“Oh my God… It’s only been half a day…”

“…That’s amazing. He really deserves to be called the best among the saints of all time.”

“…”

After hearing their words, Ray gave up.

It happened anyway, and it’s a lie that I spit out.

It goes unnoticed unless God speaks directly. I have received answers, but who will doubt and point out what?

If they were to blame, it would be right to blame God for not answering in time.

he did nothing wrong!

Rey nodded, using a logic that only he could understand.

“His voice was really electrifying. I was awakened by the sound in my head.”

Iriel agreed with Ray’s words.

“you’re right. His thunderous voice is truly a god, so I feel that he is someone who deserves to be praised…”

Iriel’s words raised Ray even further.

“It was as if I could see his face just by his voice. ha ha ha.”

Except for the pope, who will appear from the ceremony anyway, Iriel is the only one who has heard the voice of God.

Of course, the nobles who had never heard the voice of God could not doubt it.

Moreover, the situation was perfect when the saintess also supported him as if he was right.

The Marquis, who went up to the podium before the baptism, noticed them talking hahahaha.

“I hope everyone pays attention.”

As he spoke, his eyes focused on him as he lowered his glass.

The Marquis cleared his throat for a moment and said.

“The ceremony has ended. It’s not too late for this, so I’d like to have a ceremony in advance. The ceremony will begin in the castle lobby, so if you are not comfortable with it, you are welcome to leave.”

That’s what he said, but the Marquis himself knew that few nobles would leave.

He is a saint who casts Meteor. It was said that soon it would disappear and divine power would come in its place, but there was nothing bad about it because it was clearly visible in advance.

It was because the great mage of the 9th circle was never at a level where he could go as a joke.

It was also the reason why the aristocrats couldn’t rush to Ray’s side even now, like the first time.

This is because most people can be wiped out just by the name of the great mage of the 9th circle.

Also, I was afraid of the mighty power he possessed in his body.

The Marquis finished speaking and looked at Ray sideways.

‘I mean, I’m 15… Age doesn’t mean anything anymore.’

Everyone is looking at him in front of him. It seems that those below the rank of count do not even dare to breathe.

Iriel was the only one who actually talked to Ray. The rest were just around him, unable to say a word.

But it wasn’t that I didn’t understand. Even if you were in that position right now, you would be the same as them.

A single stroke of his finger could end his life.

Iriel’s thoughts were not very different.

She gulped the first time Ray cast Meteor.

It gave me goosebumps that the existence of a 9th circle mage who seemed to be more frightening than the beautiful elf he had seen in the elf village had been right next to him all the time.

However, even knowing that, the reality did not change.

Nothing has changed in his blunt tone and behavior.

For some reason, she felt relieved.

It was because he had the mind to control it even with great power.

I’m not the kind of person who kills everyone just because I’m wrong. Interest is reliable.

Because I thought so, I was able to look into his eyes as equals as usual.

Maybe his presence alone was realizing what he had promised when he was homeless.

Putting the Holy Kingdom in the highest position. Iriel did not think that the Holy Kingdom was under the Lessian Empire.
