To Hell with Being a Saint, I’m a Doctor

Chapter 288

Episode 288 Admiral Yi Dok (2)

Ray listened to the entire conversation in the dark.

“This is a big deal.”

he scratched the back of his head.

Moving a village is a big deal that cannot be done without proper preparation.

Besides, it is not something that can be done in a day or two, so it takes quite a bit of time.

A significant number of villagers are now poisoned.

It is not easy to build a farm, so if you have to move from here to the village, the fatigue will be considerable.

If stress and fatigue piled up in an unhealthy body, there was a high chance that he would fall ill.

It’s okay for now, but if that happens, there could be deaths.

“I can’t leave you alone.”

It was embarrassing to leave people unattended in a village where the well was poisoned, even if it was a small amount, but it was better than death.

Ray is determined to stop the relocation of the village.

* * *

From the next day, the villagers were busy moving.

I packed my belongings and put the lid on the well.

Naturally, I stopped touching the well water.

What Ray was aiming for was blocking the well.

There is a creek running in front of the village anyway, so supplying drinking water will be a little annoying, but it won’t be a problem.

While preparing to leave from inside the village, the village chief and village men were preparing to explore the nearby mountain.

A young man ran to the side of the village headman who was packing food and blankets as if in a hurry.

“Chief Super, it’s a big deal!”

He is the village chief, who has been on edge with poison and funding issues.

I was restless at the young man’s words.

“What else? Is it a poison problem?”

“Oh no! The stream…”

The young man who was talking also spoke gibberish, as if he was quite taken aback by the current situation.

The village chief calmed the young man down.

“Speak slowly. Shouldn’t we be prepared to know what’s going on?”

The young man, who looked at the adults around him for a moment, nodded and spoke slowly.

“Well… the stream suddenly swelled. Even if it rained heavily, it wasn’t like this… Thanks to that, the road was completely blocked…”

The village chief tilted his head at the words like thunder from the blue sky.

“What do you mean? It hasn’t rained for the past few days, but the river is still growing?”

“I don’t know either. But when I saw it, the stream was so swollen that it seemed difficult to even get out of the village, let alone the route.”

At that, the men who were packing their bags sat down.

“Whoa….”

“To be imprisoned like this…”

“It’s getting more and more difficult. Did God really abandon our village?”

“Chief, it seems difficult to move until the water dries.”

The village chief nodded with difficulty.

“I know. It’s hard, but I’ll have no choice but to try to survive in the village.”

Almost no food to eat.

To be honest, I was reaching the limit of holding on.

However, if the village headman showed a difficult expression here, the village would fall into a state of panic.

In this situation where you have to hold on with your mental strength, if you can’t keep your balance, the village is really over.

“Anyway, the road is blocked. I will think about the field trip on another day, so please hold on well until then.”

“yes.”

“I’ve been holding on so far, what will happen again? Now I’m confident in the one thing I’m holding on to.”

At the man’s words, the others tried to smile.

Why don’t you know that’s a forced laugh?

Hiding his frustrated feelings, the village head stopped the field trip.

* * *

Ray, who directly burst the upper stream bank and assisted him with magic to create a giant flood himself, straightened his bent back.

Satisfied with the result he made, he wiped his forehead with a refreshing face.

“Heh heh. I wouldn’t even think about leaving.”

If you look at his dark smile, he’s definitely a black magician.

The confinement horse of the century imprisoned all the villagers.

After finishing his work, Ray immediately jumped over the water’s edge and roamed around.

This village is located quite deep in the mountains.

If you look carefully, there must be a large monster somewhere, but what you are looking for is not a monster.

Ray, who had been looking at it widely, murmured as he broke through the bushes.

“Looking at today, we don’t even have enough food to feed the little ones… Hunting at least would be helpful.”

If it was this much in the mountains, there would be quite a few animals living there.

As he had guessed, not long after, a dull bird resembling a pheasant appeared.

As I approached cautiously, I let out an intrusive cry.

“Chaaaaaaagh!”

It must be a warning in its own way.

It looks like a pheasant, but it makes the cry of a crow.

An unknown bird threatened him with a sharp beak, but Ray’s mind was already thinking of ten dishes that could be made with a pheasant.

The bird, feeling suspicious fear at the sight, fluttered and flapped its wings.

It is the desire to escape.

No matter how much you fly and jump, it’s just a bird.

Suddenly, the stone in Ray’s hand was shot straight at the bird.

“Kieack!”

The bird that was hit on the head with a grotesque scream died as it was.

Unfortunately, it was small in size, but if you can brew at least some soup when boiling porridge, it would be a delicious pheasant soup (?).

After putting the pheasant in his leather backpack, Ray continued hunting.

How long did you hold it like that?

Dead animals piled up in his leather backpack.

Now I couldn’t put it all in my backpack, so I had to carry it on my back.

Two wild boars with many small horns around their noses.

There are dozens of unknown birds.

It wasn’t porridge, but it was enough to even have a barbecue party.

After wandering around for a while, Ray brushed off the dusty robe.

“If you do this, I will eat enough to fill you up.”

I lightly slung my backpack, which looked quite heavy, over my shoulder and set out on the road.

After hunting, I came to a little far away, but I think I can go back somehow by evening.

My mouth watered at the thought of being able to eat meat soup for the first time in a while.

Naturally, the pace quickened.

Ray, who was climbing a tree, turned his head at the sudden wave of air.

“What is that?”

I can feel a pretty strong presence from a little outside the village entrance.

It wasn’t a threat, but it was enough to arouse curiosity.

He was running in a straight line toward the village and turned.

As it moves quickly like an arrow shot towards the place where it feels its presence, a huge shadow suddenly appears in front of it.

On the rock-like hard back, the ferocious muscles caught the eye.

It

looked like it was sitting still and chewing on something, but when I looked closely, it was the corpse of an ogre.

Ray murmured with a rather surprised expression.

“It’s been a while since there has been a monster that eats an ogre except for a wyvern.”

Ogres are large predators that reign supreme among all monsters.

Standing over 5 meters in size, they were the natural enemies of the Orcs and the strongest monsters that could even fight the Knights.

At best, only dragons and wyverns could easily chew such an ogre.

But what is the unknown monster in front of me?

If you look at the appearance, it resembles an ogre, but its size seems to be 7 meters, and its skin color is blue.

In addition, looking at the single horn in the middle of the forehead, it looked similar to the common goblin.

A significant flow of mana can be felt from the horn.

It seems that even though it is a monster, it can handle mana.

In other words, it is a higher variant monster.

Occasionally, mutants appear from monsters, but that’s a very rare case.

Moreover, the variants of higher level monsters like now are even more so.

These monsters have mana stones inside and outside the body, and those mana stones are traded at high prices in the world.

It’s something I can’t sell because I don’t have it, so if it’s put up for auction, it’ll be worth it.

There was a case in the past when a mutant kobold’s mana stone was traded for twenty platinum coins.

Even the kobolds were about that, but what about the ogres!

Ray, who had been thinking that far, licked his lips.

“You are very lucky today hehehehe. He also looks delicious.”

Now, in his eyes, the top variant monster was money.

When he showed his presence while hiding in a tree, the monster that ate the ogre reacted.

“Kreurreu…”

Crying mixed with mana rang through the air.

If he was the culprit, that alone would have made him stiff.

The monster also slowly turned around and approached Ray, as if he did not suspect it.

But this time, unfortunately, the opponent was not good.

Ray, who is recognized as money-mad, is confident in one mana.

His mana, which was already dense, met with the spirit of words and advanced further.

The will to have horns flowed out in the form of mana.

Fear, which Ira had learned physically (?), was shot at the monster.

As the strong will pierced the monster’s brain, the mutant monster that resisted for a while was terrified.

The fear of death overpowered Izzy, and the gigantic body hardened like stone.

The body of the ogre he had been chewing on and secretions flowed from his mouth.

After getting down from the tree, Ray slowly approached the mutant monster.

I have no intention of killing monsters.

He only needed one horn.

Ray pulled out a dagger from his waist with a smooth movement and drew lightly.

Then, the horn that was firmly seated on the monster’s forehead was neatly cut off.

Since the one horn was full of mana, there was resistance at first, but after giving up a little strength, it gave up resistance as if it had never happened.

The shock of losing the aggregate of mana for an instant caused the monster to pass out.

Ray looked down at the fallen monster for a moment.

There is a considerable distance from here to the village.

So, even in the unlikely event that a monster would attack a private house, it wouldn’t happen.

Moreover, considering that even though these monsters lived in the mountains, no rumors had spread so far, the mutant monsters in front of them would have never attacked humans.

Touching the dagger, he shrugged.

“Because I was treated so badly by my peers, I wouldn’t attack any humans I encountered.”

With that in mind, without hesitation, he turned back the way he had come.

I must have found enough food. I must have gotten mana stones.

Ray was full without eating.

The mana stone was much bigger than I thought.

I think it’s a waste to sell.

He looked at the dagger hanging from his waist.

The dagger that has been together for a long time is not in good condition even though it has been trimmed.

‘Should I get one for this opportunity?’

If you make a sword with the mana stones of a higher variant monster, you will surely be able to create a masterpiece comparable to that of a famous sword.

Of course, the sword no longer has any meaning to him, but there is nothing inconvenient to have.

If you typed mana and use it, troublesome things would happen frequently around you, so the sword is a pretty convenient tool to avoid them.

“I’ll have to talk to Aira later.”

Dwarves are a race that is good at making swords.

However, the elven artisans also possessed no less detail.

If you ask me, I’m sure you’ll get a good answer.

Ray’s lips caught in his ears at the unexpected harvest.
