Doctor Player Chapter 402

“With gratitude to you for giving us all an unrequited favor.”

It was nonsense!

Thanks to Raymond, the throne that originally belonged to him was left vacant, and Sophia took office as viceroy and ruled the Houston kingdom instead.

‘Where in the world is such a case!’

But to my surprise, both of them had serious faces.

“Considering the light that my brother left in the Houston kingdom, this level of respect is only natural.”

“Yes, even though you may not ascend the throne, the Houston kingdom will consider you a true king.”

Raymond opened his mouth as they were both really on the verge of committing this absurd thing.

‘no way!’

In this way, even if you throw away the throne, you will be forever tied to the Houston kingdom.

No, in the worst case, after being eliminated from the throne, he could become the crown prince again and be dragged along.

So Raymond seriously objected to strict sternness.

“That is not to be said. To rule the kingdom as a father without a king? something unprecedented. It will make everyone laugh.”

“Who is laughing at you? It is to pay homage to you, the light of a miracle.”

“… … .”

King Auden responded that it could never happen.

When Raymond thought about his fame, he thought that he would pass it by because everyone else was doing it, so he gave another reason.

“If you take office as viceroy, Sophia will not have the right authority.”

But Sophia shook her head.

“No, that’s not it. On the contrary, this way, I will be able to have more authority.”

“… … huh?”

It was an incomprehensible word.

“Because I am the viceroy who follows my older brother’s light. No one in the kingdom of Houston will ever go against me.”

Yes.

Raymond’s status in the Houston kingdom was like a legend.

So, being a viceroy following Raymond gives you much more authority than just being a king!

“Oh no… … still… … this is not common… … .”

“The grace that my brother bestowed on our kingdom is unusual. When I think of that grace, it’s kind of like this kind of respect. Nothing.”

Seeing Sofia’s nasty answer, Raymond groaned inwardly.

‘No, what are you doing! It’s not like this in the first place!’

It seemed that people had changed.

No, the cold and sharp impression on the outside is the same… … The inner core had become a complete follower of Raymond.

Sophia was excited and turned her head and said this.

“Because I owed a lot. Are you doing this to repay the kindness your brother has bestowed on you… … .”

“… … You don’t really like me?”

“No, do you like it?”

“… … .”

Sophia replied with a blunt face.

“I am a person too. You can’t hate an older brother like him.”

“… … okay.”

Raymond nodded bewildered.

Come to think of it, he did a lot for Sophia.

He even saved his life, so it was understandable that his attitude had changed.

‘Originally, Sophia and I weren’t on bad terms.’

Sophia was the only one in the Houston royal family to share affection with Raymond.

‘No, but that’s not it! To make me a mental king.’

The meaning of Auden and Sophia’s argument was this.

To vacate the throne and make Raymond the spiritual king of Houston!

‘What kind of amulet am I!’

However, King Auden told an unexpected story.

“actually… … This is also our greed.”

“yes?”

“I was afraid that you would be far from the Houston Kingdom forever. I am doing this because I want to keep a bond with you.”

“… … .”

“Actually, I think it’s shameless to be greedy like this while only indebted to you.”

King Auden made a bitter face.

“Because we haven’t done anything for you. On the contrary, it only gave me a big wound.”

big wound.

It refers to the past that was persecuted by the Houston royal family.

“… … .”

Raymond kept his mouth shut.

It was a muttering of regret for the wrong done to Raymond in the past.

In fact, whenever King Oden saw Raymond, he regretted and apologized for his past mistakes.

However, Raymond didn’t want to forgive, so he didn’t accept the apology and moved on.

So Raymond was still in a state where he and Oden hadn’t resolved the sediment.

The two were still at odds with each other.

“If you don’t want to, I’ll just pretend I didn’t talk about it. I will obey your will.”

At those words, Raymond fell into trouble.

‘It makes my heart weak to come out like that.’

Of course, that didn’t mean I’d follow what they said.

If I do that, I’m sure my nose will be pierced again… … .

‘… … Don’t you?’

Raymond narrowed his eyes.

It was something I decided to think about carefully.

‘Come to think of it, this offer isn’t unconditionally bad for me.’

I was reluctant to oppose it, but thinking about it, it didn’t seem that bad.

‘It’s not really what I’m supposed to do. and… … In fact, there’s nothing wrong with having power.’

He already had a similar position in the Peninsula Kingdom.

The spiritual king above King Rashid!

For reference, he was in a similar position in the Catal Kingdom. After becoming a benefactor of the Catal Kingdom, he became a cardinal.

There is no duty, only power!

I thought I could think of the Houston Kingdom in a similar way.

Raymond had no reason to refuse.

‘It’s only a problem after I drop out of the election for the throne later.’

In the case of the Peninsula Kingdom, Rashid was not worried that he would soon officially ascend the throne.

However, in this case, the official throne was vacant, so it was not clear.

If you make a mistake, you may be dragged back later.

Raymond has pinpointed the problem.

“Even if the throne is vacated, I will not ascend to the throne of Houston in the future.”

King Auden nodded as if it were natural.

“Know. In fact, even if it wasn’t for this election, I already thought that the Houston kingdom would be too small to contain your light.”

“… … .”

“We just want to keep our ties with you.”

Raymond nodded.

If so, it seemed fine.

“All right. Then we will.”

“Yes, thank you. And Raymond.”

King Auden said hesitantly.

“It’s been a while. How about having a meal together?”

“… … .”

Raymond was silent for a moment.

Perhaps King Auden made this proposal in order to try to get closer as blood relatives.

However, as I said before, Raymond was uncomfortable with King Auden.

So, to be honest, I didn’t want to have a meal together in a friendly way.

“I prepared the finest beef from the Kingdom of Clever that you like.”

“… … Go quickly.”

Raymond unknowingly replied, startled.

‘Oh no… … This is because I have a craving for beef.’

For reference, there were famous beef livestock producing areas on the continent.

Clever Kingdom is a place where the best quality beef in the southwestern part of the continent is grown.

And beef has a different flavor for each fat.

So, while he was in the kingdom of Houston, he only agreed to taste the best beef in the area, not because he felt relieved about King Auden.

However, King Auden said this, perhaps misunderstanding Raymond’s consent.

“… … thanks.”

“… … .”

Raymond kept his mouth shut, not wanting to clear up the misunderstanding.

King Auden said in a voice full of remorse.

“Raymond, in fact, we have no shame in telling you anything. But wherever you go and whatever you do, remember one thing.”

“… … Please speak.”

King Auden said.

“You are the pride of Houston.”

* * *

After that, Raymond did what he had to deal with in Houston Kingdom.

I went to the Rafalde region and proceeded with the expansion of the vaccine factory.

Fortunately, Noh Hyun-ja Mevinson still corrected it.

“I see, lord! Ah, this Mavinson! What an honor to be able to serve your lord! You are the emperor! You are the emperor! Light!”

… … The reception was still there.

‘It’s noisy, but it’s the best.’

Despite being virtually neglected, the Lapalde region was prospering endlessly.

It was all thanks to Noh Hyeon-ja Mevinson, so Raymond brought out the present he had prepared for Mevinson.

It was a health supplement obtained from the Free Cities Association.

“Lord, lord? This?”

“It is a gift prepared for you to be healthy for a long time.”

“iced coffee… … !”

Hyeonja Noh was moved to tears.

“I’m not the type to cry a lot, but receiving a gift from my lord brought tears to my eyes again… … iced coffee… … How could my lord be not only great but also benevolent?”

‘… … It’s not like that, but it’s a gift with the meaning of wishing you to suffer in my place for a long, long time in good health.’

Raymond cleared his throat.

Afterwards, I met Hanson after taking care of things in the Millen Lapalde area.

Hanson was active as a second-in-command of the medical school, going back and forth between the Houston Kingdom and the Katal Kingdom.

Especially the training of the healer corps he cares about!

“Everyone stand up.”

With Hanson’s low voice.

Numerous healers lined up to show a strict formula.

okay… … It was ‘food’.

A strict ceremony that can be seen in the most elite knights!

“insect!”

“We must live!”

“Majesty Raymond!”

“O great light!”

A tremendous number of new medicine healers shouted.

It seemed more disciplined than the last time I saw it.

‘Hanson… … It’s not some kind of medical education, it’s not like they’re training knights, right?’

Raymond broke out in a cold sweat.

Why the hell are healers learning the ritual? Not to be inferior to a fair amount of knights.

Even the healers were wearing maces on their waists.

It was a spirit that wouldn’t be strange if he rushed with a mace right away.

As if he had noticed Raymond’s question, Hanson explained.

“Inspired by the image of a master holding a sword for a patient, I learned basic martial arts. You don’t know what danger you’ll be in if you’re caring for patients.”

“… … uh yes.”

Seeing the terrifying momentum emanating from the healers, it didn’t seem like it was at a basic level.

All of the healers were exuding spirits that surpassed that of quite a few knights.

However, Hanson’s eyebrows twitched as if he didn’t like that spirit.

The new healers flinched at the sight of Hanson and shouted with a stronger voice.

“We must live!”

“Let’s imitate the Master!”

“Let’s imitate!”
