To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 64
Episode 64 The night after the ceremony, the first ball (2)
Iriel received a shock as if he had been hit in the head with a sledgehammer by Berris’ words.
‘This crazy bastard…!’
She spat out curse words uncharacteristic of a saint.
The opponent is a fifteen-year-old person who stands at the forefront of the science of magic.
Trying to bring down such a person by calling him a commoner… Veris probably hates her own family, the Marquis of Harold.
If not, why are you so anxious to ruin your family?
If that was the case, she was confident that she would step in and apply the pressure herself.
Iriel looked at Ray with a nervous expression.
‘It’s a big deal… If the saint has a different mind…’
If he tries to leave the kingdom out of sarcasm at Veris’s words, no one can stop him.
No, far from blocking it, I had to pray that he would not use magic in anger at the Holy Kingdom.
This is because if Meteor of that size, manifested while giving a speech, falls on the capital of the Holy Kingdom, the Holy Kingdom will turn into a sea of fire in an instant.
However, to stop him, he did not know that the damage that would be stopped only by the destruction of the capital would lead to the destruction of the castle.
Iriel glared at Veris in a situation where he couldn’t recklessly step out.
‘Just close your eyes and kill me?’
A truly saintly idea. If the god heard this, he might even give him divine power saying that he did a good job in protecting the kingdom.
Ray spoke like a child complaining about Verice’s words.
“They say the value goes down just because commoners hold a ball. Anyway, it’s not quite like that.”
Then he shook his head and laughed lightly at Ray.
“The Holy Son doesn’t know yet. How stupid they are.”
He seems to think that all the eyes around him are looking up to him, so his words become more and more extreme.
Grayan next to him continued to notice Berris, but he couldn’t notice it because he was in the middle of feeling superior to the saint who could not refute even if he mocked him.
Ray raised a corner of his mouth involuntarily and said.
“As the son of Berris said, I don’t know. Why the hell are they being called stupid? In fact, don’t the sons of Veris feel superior by putting them down?”
Veris was furious at the saint’s unexpected counterattack.
‘Come one more step.’
Perhaps he will spit out a little more radical words to keep the position he has been in the conversation so far.
As expected by Ray, Veris stretched out her chest to look confident to everyone.
“To feel superior by putting down commoners. The Harold Marquis family is not small enough to feel superior just because they were put down in the first place.”
And then he laughs
“I wonder if the reason why the saint is defending them…”
Ray grinned, as did Veris.
“Isn’t it because the saint was also a commoner like them before?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Iriel raised his hand and covered his mouth.
Veris was out of her mind. Even if you want to die, there must be a degree.
What nonsense is that for a mage who has reached the highest level in history!
It would have been better to curse at the pope in front of the temple.
The reactions of the people around her were also not very different from hers.
Veris’ face became contemplative as if she had finally realized what she had said.
At the door of the hall, someone approached him like a flash.
Ray hurriedly gathered mana to block Verice’s neck with a sharp sword in an instant.
Kaang-
Even the musicians were surprised by the tremendous sound and stopped the music.
Veris’s contemplative face was now completely cut in half.
The owner of the sword he raised was Zeke.
He hurriedly got down on one knee and prostrated himself on Ray.
“It makes me very sad to be able to show my holy son my first appearance in this way. However… I thought I would have to cut off that dirty snout, so I dared to step forward. Please forgive my rudeness.”
Everyone in the audience was silent. To think that Zeke of the Duke of Trey was on his knees.
It was something I had never seen before. They were just watching the situation without being able to breathe at the situation that had grown enormously.
Zeke was rather surprised by the saint. He knew that he was the lord he had to serve.
I also knew that it was something I had to protect. However, I did not know that I would be able to block the sword that was fired with all my might in anger in that short moment.
‘I heard that you are fifteen. But what the hell is this power…’
His hands were tingling. Hana-saint didn’t look tingly, he had a nonchalant expression on his face.
Naturally, his head bowed deeply.
But what surprised me was Ray as well.
To the owner of a hot-tempered personality who suddenly sees the sword flying first.
No matter how harsh he was, he was about to cut his throat… I could feel that he was full of thoughts of killing Veris, even from the sword.
‘As expected, it was good that he learned a little swordsmanship.’
If he had a low level of mastery with the sword, Veris would have been separated from his neck and body by the sword force pushed back, and he would have died.
The skill and mana of the man prostrated in front of him was considerable.
Perhaps even more so than his own father.
‘I’m sure he looks young.’
Ray let out a sigh of relief that Veris was not dead.
However, as if it was not the end yet, Eucliwood quietly approached from behind.
She was quietly brainwashed.
“The Marquis of Harold dares to ridicule the saint without knowing their subjects. It shouldn’t be.”
Zeke also looked at her.
The Belacroix family. It was a family that deserved the same level as himself.
Her family had overwhelming wealth enough to be called the treasure house of the Holy Kingdom.
She and her family, as well as herself, were angered, so she would not be able to get over it.
Ray, too, had no intention of letting go. Rather, I intend to punish and set an example.
“Summon Marquis Eucliwood Harold.”
“All right.”
It wasn’t the usual slow pace. She disappeared with the horse.
Ray looked at him and said to Iriel.
“Iriel, what kind of punishment can I give to them when this is usually the case?”
She calmly replied to that.
“What he said now is the death penalty.”
That’s why Zeke must have rushed in with the idea of a summary execution.
Ray thought for a moment. The death penalty… That was not a very pleasant punishment.
he asked Iriel.
“From your point of view, what do you think is an appropriate punishment in this situation?”
The saint is a great mage unprecedented in history and at the same time a saint called the representative of God.
In addition, even the hearts of the people were captured on the first day, and there were countless nobles who wanted to look good for him.
That’s why, to Iriel, Ray’s question had no choice but to be a question with a fixed answer.
She answered immediately, without thinking.
“It is the death penalty.”
At Iriel’s words, the surrounding nobles, including Veris, trembled.
“Oh my God… No matter how much, the death penalty for being the Marquis of Harold…”
“This is what Iriel-nim said. Probably really the death penalty.”
At that, Ray shook his head.
“Except for the death penalty?”
“…There must be a way to dethrone the title and confiscate their property so that he cannot succeed the marquis.”
It was a better method than the death penalty. At just the right time, Marquis Harold came running with Eucliwood.
As soon as he arrived, his face turned white as he had listened to everything, and he kicked Veris’ cheeks without even thinking of saying hello to the two adults.
Peruk –
“Aagh!”
It must have been hit with the palm of my hand, but the sound of the punch resonated lightly in the lobby.
Everyone was staring at him in amazement.
Even so, the Marquis’ palm did not stop.
Puck-puck-
“Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh father…”
It resonated like the sound of firewood exploding.
“I told you so much!”
The Marquis’ words made them feel something.
It was because everyone heard the same voice from the parents going up to the lobby on the second floor.
‘Never go against the will of the Holy Son.’
‘If he speaks, follow it no matter what!’
‘Stay by his side no matter what! Make the best impression possible!’
I thought he was just saying this out of an old man’s heart, afraid that he might do something stupid.
But I could feel that it was not like that in the way I see now.
they are nobles Among those who valued such face very much, the family that could be counted on the hand was the Marquis of Harold.
The head of such a marquis family was beating up his son in front of many people.
At least it wasn’t a normal picture.
Eucliwood said quietly to the Marquis.
“What kind of insolence is this in front of the saint?”
With that one word, the Marquis stopped beating Veris and immediately took a stance.
Then, he quickly bowed down and bowed to Ray and Iriel.
“Sorry! Marquis Harold meets the saint and the saintess! Please forgive my rudeness!”
Iriel, like Iriel, was angry with Marquis Harold.
Who the hell did he entrust his son’s education to, so that he spits out such absurd remarks on an adult chosen by God?
If, because of Veris, the saint left the kingdom behind and returned to the kingdom of Celia, it would be a loss at the national level.
No matter how much mana is converted into divine power, he pioneered a state that no one had achieved at the age of 15.
If such a person disappears… In the worst case, if he goes to Celia Kingdom with mana, they will be throwing the statue prepared by God on the street.
In addition, a little over half a day had passed, and this fact might have been known to the neighboring kingdom of Celia.
If that happens, there is a possibility that the kingdom of Celia will even go to war to take over the great mage of the 9th circle.
The one who possesses it is to obtain the power to influence the continent.
So, it was natural for her to be angry.
“The disrespect of the sons of Berris to the saint. Of course, the Marquis of Harold will have to pay for their sins.”
“If you say it’s the price of sin…”
Marquis Harold asked with a look of uneasiness on his face.
The nobles who were curious about the situation around him crossed over from the second-floor building to the first-floor building with the lobby.
Everyone had serious faces, as if they had heard Marquis Harold’s story to some extent.
Ray looked directly at Marquis Harold and asked.
“Marquis, in the present situation, do you have the confidence to pay the price for your sins?”
It’s like what parents say when they scold their children, ‘Are you wrong? How many will you get hit?’ was the same question.
he was testing What kind of thoughts did Marquis Harold have?
It could be a pity to lose everything that had been achieved. However, if the Marquis sees only that, Ray will not hesitate to take everything from him.
There will be an option to throw your son away. If that happens, the responsibility for what Veris did will be reduced considerably.
However, if the marquis made such a choice, Ray had the idea of imprisoning them altogether.
The Marquis’ tightly closed lips soon began to open.
“…If you would be gracious and spare your son’s life… I will give up the Marquis family.”
