Chapter 78

Chapter 78

After eradicating the mobster, the expedition took a break.

Raymond was considerate of the less well-recovered in the expedition team.

Knights, your body hasnt recovered yet, so please rest a little longer. Ill take a look around here for the mean time.

But.

Didnt I beat the monster anyway? There wont be any danger. If I see anything strange, I will send you a signal as soon as possible.

The knights shook their heads in disbelief.

The knights are resting while the healers are exploring.

It was impossible.

I dont think so. Well take care of the surroundings even if its a little too much, so please stay here, Baron Penin.

Thats right. Theres no expedition anywhere that puts healers at the forefront.

Raymond frowned as the knights did not demean.

Ah, why are you so stubborn when I have to find the treasure by myself? Youre not at all obedient.

Raymonds willingness to step up like this was, of course, not for the knights.

Hes trying to find the treasure secretly and make it look good!

Given that there was a final boss, the monster, there is a high probability that there is a treasure around here! His intuition was signaling.

Its a 100 percent chance.

He has to move quickly and steal the treasure.

If I managed to steal the treasure, I will never have to meet the snake-like Young-ae forever! When Raymond thought so, he became impatient.

As time goes by, the knights will soon regain their strength. Before that, he had to steal the treasure.

Knights, may I say a word? Do you know what my creed is?

Creed what do you mean?

Raymond nodded his head with an infinitely serious look.

[The skill Speech is manifested!]

[This is a story for patients, and it creates synergy with the heart of Steel!]

This is only for the sake of my patients. I cannot allow my patients to take risks when theyre not fully recovered.

.!

Of course I know that you are proud royal knights. But now you are all just my patients. If you get hurt again or be in bad shape, Ill be heartbroken. So trust me and leave it to me. Please.

A calm ripples spread throughout the cavity. It was a quiet but intense ripples.

All the knights eyes were shaking.

Everyone was very moved.

If you get hurt again, Ill be heartbroken.

What healer in the world cares so much about his patients?

They choked with emotions.

Ha, but.

Stop, I wont listen any more. Take a rest. Please. The knights were silenced by the strong voice.

Everyone clenched their fists to calm their shaky chests.

How do you repay this favor?

Today. Ill never forget it.

There is the word chivalry.

It refers to the principles pursued by knights, such as protecting the weak and returning favors.

The seven royal knights were deeply moved and grateful to Raymond.

Raymond, who had scammed the knights, began his exploration with gasps.

Lets hurry up and find the treasure before the knights come forward! The hawk eye! Use the hawks eyes!

Eagles eye!

Raymond showed desperate concentration.

After a while, Raymond found a fishy secret passage inside the cavity.

Oh? Whats this?

Raymond had a strong feeling.

This is where the treasure is hidden!

Baron? If theres anything strange, please tell me right away!

Ah, It looks good! It seems to be a room where ancient people used to rest. It doesnt look much, so Ill check it out for a while and then go out.

Raymond, who had thus gained time, entered cautiously.

Oh my!

Treasure boxes were placed here and there!

Finally, Im super rich!

Raymond suddenly felt dizzy.

The hardships he had so far passed by like a thunderbolt.

Everyone must have gone through such a hard time for todays happiness.

Ahhhhh. I love it so much Im going to faint. Well, lets pull ourselves together. If I fall down here, its over. I need to get it out of the way quickly!

Raymond opened the chest with the intention of stealing the most precious and valuable treasure.

However

What?

Raymond made a deflated sound.

The chest was empty. Whats this? This is the only one thats empty

A cold ominousness passed by, but Raymond tried to shake his head.

There are still other treasure chests here.

Only this one might be empty.

But all the seven treasure chests were empty.

Every single one of them!

What is this?

Raymond put a lost expression.

It was like falling from heaven to hell.

Oh, no. This cant be happening. My treasure. I must have misread it.

Raymond opened the treasure chests once more with his trembling hands.

But nothing has changed.

Only a few copper coins rolled around.

No way! What is this?

Raymond screamed in his mind.

He felt like he was having a giddy nightmare.

No! This wont be the end! No way!

Raymond searched the room with red eyes.

And he only found a trace that he never expected.

Huh?

It was blood.

He tried to wipe it off but faint marks remain.

Use hawks eyes.

When Raymond activated his skill and looked closely, the traces of drawing something with blood remained blurred.

Is it a magic circle drawn by ancient people?

But something was strange.

This is not a trace left from thousands of years ago.

This was definitely a magic circle drawn just recently.

What is it?

A cold feeling crossed his spine.

Come to think of it, there was no dust in the treasure chests.

If the ancient people left it empty, it should be full of dust.

It means?

Then, after recovering himself, Walton came to Raymonds place.

Baron Penin? Whats wrong with you? What are you looking at?

Walton followed Raymonds gaze and was startled. Walton is a powerful knight who has reached the mid-level of being a sword expert.

He confirmed the traces of the magic circle.

Its a summoning magic.

Summoning?

Yes, it seems to be a magic circle for summoning monsters. Could it be that the identity of the monster that put us in trouble earlier originated from this circle?

Waltons face became serious.

Even if it wasnt so, a monster that was powerful compared to the size of the ruins appeared and was wondering around.

But what about this summoning magic circle?

Someone deliberately summoned a powerful demon to this ruins! To exterminate the expedition! Walton guessed the answer at once.

Then whos the criminal?

Could it be the people from the Droughton Kingdom?

Walton is the superior of the Knights of the Kingdom and knows the fate of war with the Kingdom of Droughton.

Well have to investigate the magic circle to find out the truth exactly. But there was no one other than the people of Droughton who could have done this.

Having thought that far, Walton acted unexpectedly again.

He thanked Raymond almost immediately.

Thank you, Baron Penin!

What?

Thanks to Baron Penin, I found a valuable clue!

It was the truth.

If Raymond hadnt discovered this secret room, he would have been completely unaware of it.

Lord Walton? Whats the matter?

One by one, the royal knights, already energized, approached them. Walton then exclaimed in a strong voice.

What are you doing? Without paying tribute to the baron?!

!

While we were lying down, the baronet moved himself to uncover the plot of this expedition! Everyone, pay your respects!

Pay your respects.

It is a way for knights to express their extreme gratitude and respect.

It was a sudden order, but the royal knights were convinced.

From the detection of traps in the early stages of exploration, detoxification, eradication of demons, to grasping conspiracies.

It was all Raymond.

The royal knights did nothing.

Theres only one thing they can do.

It is to pay him the great respect he deserves.

Chung!

Thump, thump, thump.The royal knights took out their swords and stuck them on the floor.

Praise!

Glory!

Receiving the highest respect, Raymond had a face that could neither smile nor cry.

I dont need this respect. Give me the treasure. My treasure. My treasure.

Looking at the empty treasure chest, Raymond just swallowed his tears.

After many twists and turns, the exploration of the ruins ended.

***

From beginning all the way to the end, it was Raymond who led the exploration of the ruins.

<For saving the Knights from crisis.>

<Hollowly leading the exploration success.>

<Certificate of finding clues to guess the plot behind the scenes.>

It was a list of meritorious services by Raymond.

Of course, it won him a reward.

It was not a royal decoration as before.

It was an award given under the jurisdiction of the Royal Knights.

However, since the leader of the Royal Knights was King Oden, Raymond received the award directly from the king. For these merits, I, Oden de Huston, represent the Royal Knights and present you with an award.

Thank you.

Raymond bowed his head with a face of little emotion.

Its only once or twice that He was touched by such an award. He felt normal now that he is receiving such an award for the nth time.

A sigh came out of his mouth automatically.

Everyone around him knows how heartbroken he was after the exploration of the ruins.

It was better if I hadnt found it for at least I wouldnt know. Now the disappointment creeps in me as I have learned that all seven of them are gone of riches.

Meanwhile, those who saw Raymonds appearance misunderstood.

He had received an award from Your Highness, but his face is as dark and unimpressed.

Perhaps its out of concern. It was Walton.

Weve identified a big conspiracy in this exploration. I guess its because he is worried about it.

Is that so?

Yes, I experienced it during this exploration. Baron Penin was the only one who cared about others. A man who never thinks of himself. He is probably still worried about the impending war.

My my.

Coincidentally, only those related to the Royal Knights were present at the place. This was because it was an award given under the jurisdiction of the Royal Knights.

Therefore, the words of Walton, the superior of the Royal Knights, had considerable credibility.

Everyone looked at Raymond in admiration.

The rumors circulating in the commoners area must be true.

They said he is like an angel from heaven. Its all true.

If he werent an illegitimate child, he wouldve made such a great person. What a shame.

Thanks to them, a message popped into Raymonds head.

[Your reputation is rising!]

[Some people look at you differently!]

However, it was not enough to comfort Raymonds wounded heart.
