Chapter 96:

There is no reason to oppose it. What do you think, Your Majesty?

King Oden nodded silently.

It meant he is accepting the proposal.

Good. I have to run from here.

It was important from now on.

The preceding words were merely an introduction.

There is just one problem.

Hmm?

This is the rule of the Healing Tower. It is stipulated that any treatment center must receive a certain amount of treatment fee when treating a patient.

Raymond shook his head in a hurry.

Of course, that doesnt mean Im going to get paid for the treatment. Of course, its ridiculous during the war. I would just appreciate it if you could provide military support to the extent possible, such as the cost of herbs.

Soon after, Raymond threw the game.

Instead, please give credit for every patient Id treat.

.!

I think that would be enough to replace the cost of treatment.

A credit to patient care!

This was Raymonds game-winner.

This way, its possible to make a lot of money.

It was a story that was hard to understand.

Is this the way to make money?

However, if I changed my mind a little, I could know the answer.

What is the merit?

It is a great honor and becomes the basis for compensation after victory.

After treating many patients and accumulating merit, Raymond planned to demand compensation that exceeded the cost of treatment!

I have to ask for the yolk among the territories of the Rafald region. For example, a place with a mine or something like that.

The Rafald region also varied widely depending on where it was located.

After a great deal of merit, I will receive the most lucrative land as a fiefdom.

The cost of treatment will remain incomparable.

War is a place of opportunity! Through this war, I will become the richest lord and just be simply super rich!

Raymonds heart was pounding just by imagining it.

Then, Chancellor Galman asked. Why are you making such request?

Raymond replied in a determined voice, hiding all his greed.

Im greedy too.

Greed?

Yes, I am greedy to make the best contribution for the kingdom.

!

I want to make a bigger contribution than anyone else for the Kingdom of Houston. As a healer, in service to the patients.

Maybe its because of his speech skills?

I dont feel any trace of greed.

It was a voice full of determination.

Unsurprisingly, Chancellor Galman overlooked this for his all-time favorite.

I think Baron Penins intentions are truly remarkable. What do you think, Your Majesty?

At that time, Oden showed an unexpected reaction.

Ofcourse, he thought he would agree, but he didnt nod so easily.

His intentions are not bad, but it is unprecedented and needs to be reviewed. It could be seen as giving preferential treatment.

Raymond looked troubled by the unexpected opposition.

Fortunately, Chancellor Galman stepped up.

Its for the patient, what do you mean by preferential treatment? Also, what does it matter if they get a little preferential treatment, considering the contribution Baron Penin has made so far?

Your words are correct in every detail, Prime Minister!

If Your Highness is reluctant, I will allow the establishment under my jurisdiction as the Chancellor.

In the end, King Orden nodded.

However, there are conditions.

What is it?

Participate as a healer in the upcoming victory ceremony in a few days.

Raymond looked puzzled.

Victory ceremony? Whats that?

It was the first time Raymond had heard of it.

Galman, on the other hand, asked in surprise.

Your Highness? Are you serious?

Yes, since he wants to contribute so much to the Kingdom of Houston, he will be able to perform well in the victory ceremony.

Galman looked greatly delighted.

Congratulations. You have been entrusted with a very honorable task!

Raymond looked dazed.

Whats the victory ceremony?

Subduing monsters.

What?

Chancellor Galman explained with excitement.

To be precise, you are going into the Gir Mountains to cut off the head of the Shabel Tiger, the symbol of the Droughton Kingdom.

!

Raymonds face went white.

How can I catch something like that as a healer? Are you telling me to die?

Then, Galman waved as if not to misunderstand.

Of course, Your Majesty will do it himself with the Royal Knights to catch Shabel Tiger. Its a royal ritual to pray for victory.

Then what about me?

You supplement your highness as a healer. Galman said with a satisfied face.

Its the greatest honor as a healer. Congratulations. You got the opportunity to assist your Majesty.

Dedicated to serving King Oden!

It was an honor that only Count Helien, the royal court official, could achieve!

It was certainly the highest honor, but Raymonds complexion hardened.

I have to serve His Majesty the King?

His eyes caught King Odens indifferent face.

Whenever I see that face, I think of the numerous pains that I had to endure being born out of wedlock.

Raymond held back his emotions and bowed his head.

Thank you very much for giving me the honor of serving you, Your Majesty.

King Oden looked at Raymond for a moment.

A trace of unidentifiable emotion passed through his hardened face.

But Raymond, who was looking down, did not catch a glimpse of that part.

In this way, Raymond served King Oden in person for the first time.

Even as a subject.

Even as father and son.

It was the first time.

***

Why did you ask Raymond to participate in the victory ceremony? asked Galman after Raymond had left.

This is because it made sense that Count Helien, the royal physician, to be the one to participate.

But Oden gave no particular answer.

Soon after Galman went out, Oden, who was left alone, raised his gaze and looked out of the window.

Its time to decide.

Decision.

It means what to do with Raymond in the future.

Ive been consistent with indifference and turning a blind eye, but I cant do that anymore.

Raymond was too outstanding for that.

It was time for a decision in some way.

This victory ritual was a test to make that decision.

Odens decision will depend on the results of the test.

***

Meanwhile, then Raven duchy on the outskirts of the capital is in a dilemma.

The Duke of Raven, the head of the greatest family in the Kingdom of Houston, was in trouble.

It was because of Alfred, his successor.

He ran away because he was afraid to participate in the war!

Have you find Alfred?

I apologize, Duke. Not yet.

Oh, my.

The Duke of Raven groaned.

Eventhough he is his only son, he is a mess.

Studying takes a back seat.

He indulged only in alcohol and women and wasted his familys wealth on gambling. He even ran away at night with his lover out of fear of war.

So he tried to pass on the family name to Christine. But she suddenly became a healer.

Nothing worked out as he meant.

Find Alfred somehow! The heir of the dukemon is running away for fear of the war!

Yes, sir!

Then, an imposing voice rang out.

Theres no need for that. Ill join the war.

.!

It was Christine!

What do you mean?

Instead of my brother, I will go to war on behalf of the family.

No way!

Why? Why not?

She looked at the Duke with a deep blue eye.

It was a provocative look.

Im sure my father knows it, right? I am a talent much better suited to be a duke than that bastard.

The duke could not deny it.

Christine suddenly pulled out a protective sword in her waist.

Faaah!

Her sword shone brightly.

It was a mana sword!

Surprisingly, Christine had not only healing power, but also swordsmanship skills equivalent to mana users!

After you saw me manifest this mana sword when I was young, you decided to make me the successor of the family name.

Its just the past. You chose the path of healer.

Why cant I choose the healers path and succeed the family? Even a coward, foolish man is trying to inherit the family. Christine spoke boldly.

I will participate in the war and prove my ability. I will show you that I am perfect both as a healer and as the heir of the family.

Why did you make that decision all of a sudden? Didnt you give up on succeeding the family?

Thats.

Christine kept her mouth shut.

To be supportive of a fool who only looks for his patients.

What an idiot.

Thinking of Raymond made her angry and frustrated.

I wont be a burden anymore. Ill help him somehow. Ill let him count on me.

That was her determination.

Of course, she didnt bring it up.

If I participate in the war instead, even my cowardly brother will be happy. And I have a favor to ask of you.

What is it?

Please let my engagement to the secon prince Kairn, be nullified.

!

Christine spoke in a straightforward manner. I dont want to marry such a psychopath prince

Its not an easy decision to make.

If its hard to break the board, then please tie up my younger brother for me. He wanted to be a prince before, right?

Its a combination of a psychopath prince and a vain evil sister. It would look great on him.

I cant afford to be distracted by such a psychopath, she thought.

She was busy.

To be the best healer.

If I want to be of help to the fool who only thinks about his patients, even if I put in all of my efforts, it wont be enough.

Its just the beginning.

Thats how Christines participation was decided.

***

Raymond participated in the victory ceremony.

The location is in the eastern part of the kingdom.

It was in the Gir Mountains, a den of monsters.

When they arrived, Raymond noticed a great number of characters.

Hyuk. Marquis of Aris, Count Doton.

It was the head and vice-captain of the Royal Knights!

Both are superpowers at the top of Sword Expert.

However, it is known that even at the same level, Marquis Aris is still known to be of a slightly higher level.

People say that is already halfway to the master level. It is certain that he will become a sword master within a few years. Not to mention the fact that he is also very handsome.

Statue Aris

It was the nickname of the Marquis of Aris. Thats how handsome he is.

Even though he was over 50 years old, he only looked like he was in his late 30s. His brilliant silver hair fluttered.

He really resembles Elmud awhile ago.

Please allow me to raise my sword for you!

Elmuds cry came to his mind when they parted. Chills run down his spine.

The heir of the Marquis swears loyalty as a knight to him, who is an illegitimate child.

If the Marquis Aris finds out, hell try to cut my head off.

His eyes met the Marquis of Aris as he trembled.

Ariss sculptural mouth slowly softened.

To his surprise, he smiled!

Are you Baron Penin?
