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

Chapter 418

Episode 418 The darkness that is not enough to chew on (3)

With the help of the Halfman Merchant Merchant, the Baybon Kingdom survived the war with the monsters.

the first day and the second day.

The monsters rushed fiercely toward the capital without showing any signs of getting tired.

The knights who stood at the forefront gasped for breath and moved their swords.

“Heo Eok… Heo Eok…”

“Priests… please bless…”

The priests of the Holy Kingdom turned their eyes coldly to the knights begging for blessings.

They clenched their fists and forced their words out.

“…sorry. My holy power has run out.”

There were those who recovered divine power in the rear, but the priests in the front did not.

They fought for half a day on the front line without taking any breaks.

Not only was his divine power running, but his physical condition was also not normal.

But since the priests couldn’t hold their swords and fight, it was the knights who were dying.

The knights and paladins who struggled to raise sword auras from the front and fought against each other fell one by one.

As the number of knights, who could be called elite, gradually decreased, the advance of the monsters began to draw closer.

Feeling impatience, the Magic Corps poured magic from the top of the castle wall.

“Fire ball!”

“Magic arrow!”

Kwaaaang-!

He drew the missing mana and manifested magic, but even if there were many monsters, there were too many.

I’ve killed a fair number of monsters so far.

There are still more numbers left.

Being able to endure so far was only possible because of the activities of mercenaries, adventurers, and King Baybon.

King Baybon runs around the battlefield with field magic deployed, and mercenaries who slash the monsters approaching from behind.

Although it was still doing well, it seemed that it would not last long either.

The knight commander, soaked in monster blood, shouted.

“When do they say reinforcements will arrive!”

The knight who was blocking the monsters with his helmet dented replied.

“Not even word from the messenger! It would be difficult to expect reinforcements!”

“I’m going crazy…!”

The war situation was leaning against them.

In the current situation, they were at a disadvantage every time they continued the battle.

The monsters’ stamina was incomparable even to those who use mana, and their size was so huge that it was difficult to deal with.

With one swing of the sharp claws, five or six soldiers became incapacitated, so only the knights could compete with large monsters.

Those knights also ran out of stamina right now.

Some knights had their hands neatly torn to the shoulder blades, while others lost their legs and sat down crying.

The normally dignified and courageous knight was no longer on this battlefield.

There were only those who lost their bodies, lost their lives, lost their comrades, and cried like children.

King Baybon gritted his teeth.

‘I have to make time to take a break even a little bit.’

He dispelled the field magic.

The monsters attacked the king, but were stopped by the knight commander guarding the area.

“Your Majesty is dangerous!”

“It’s fine for a while, so protect me.”

The firm gaze moved the knight commander.

His sword cut the demons in two at once.

“I take orders! All knights escort His Majesty!”

At that, the knights who dealt with the demons quickly escaped and escorted the king.

King Baybon put his hand on the ground.

And he poured a lot of mana into it.

Koo Goo Goong-!

A bright light burst from the staff the king was holding.

Whoaaah-!

The ground began to shake.

The more the magic stone formed on the staff, the more and more it lost its brilliant light.

The knights who were escorting the king next to him looked flustered.

“Your Majesty… That wand is…”

“Treasure of the royal family… the wand of the first…” It

was produced with the beginning of the history of Bay Bon and is called the ‘Wand of Beginning’. The royal family’s treasure, which was called, was used.

The staff of colostrum had stored a lot of mana so far, but it was only a one-time use.

Once used, the wand will disappear along with the magic stone.

King Baybon skipped the incantation and recited the start language.

“Wall of stone!”

Ku-gu-gu-gu-!

The ground shuddered as if it would turn over.

The monsters who lost their balance fell over and the corpses of the knights sank deeply into the ground.

Things like walls rose little by little, and soon another wall was created.

The castle wall, huge enough to enclose the entire castle, blocked the advance of the monsters that were rushing without knowing the end.

In an instant, the war situation was restored.

“It’s a rice wall!”

“The King of Baybon said he had risen to the level of a great mage, so the rumors were true!”

The adventurers grew tired of the king’s majesty, and the mercenaries looked on with admiration.

King Baybon gasped and grabbed his chest.

“Ugh….”

Because of using magic that exceeded his limits, the ring in his heart was shaking as if it would break.

Mana flowed back and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

“Cool!”

He vomited blood.

The knight commander hurriedly approached the king.

“If there is a priest with holy power remaining, please help!”

“Yes… Yes!”

Belatedly, several priests rushed to the king, but the condition of the Baybon King was already getting worse.

His complexion turned black and his limbs hardened little by little.

It was a symptom of mana depletion.

‘It’s a big deal.’

The knight commander grasped the seriousness of the situation.

If the king died like this, neighboring kingdoms claiming to be allies could plot an invasion.

I had to let people know that the King was alive and well.

He shouted with mana in his voice.

“His Majesty ordered the monsters to retreat! I will not forgive anyone who dares to fall behind!”

“yes!”

“I take orders!”

The soldiers were excited.

Because the high wall was built, the demons could not set foot beyond the castle.

Now you can finally rest.

The complexion of the priests and paladin mercenaries also relaxed a lot.

In the midst of running out of holy power and mana, rest like now felt as sweet as honey to them.

On the other hand, the knight commander’s expression was dark.

After supporting King Baybon, he returned to the castle with heavy steps.

* * *

When King Baybon came to his senses, the monsters within the castle walls had already been subdued and the soldiers were being given a short break.

Blinking his eyes quietly in bed, he asked quietly.

“…How much time has passed.”

Count Wiren, who stood by the king’s side until he woke up, lowered his head and replied.

“Not even half a day has passed yet, Your Majesty.”

“Half a day…”

Earn Wiren spoke quite loudly, looking at King Baybon, who kept his mouth shut.

“Your Majesty, please only think of Your Majesty’s prison body for now.”

Then the king looked at him blankly.

“Earl Warren. How long do you think that wall will last?”

“…I dared to think that it would last for two days.”

He shook his head.

“It would have been less than a day. That’s just a stone with mana in it. Considering the number of monsters, it was a lot for a day. But to say that you are taking care of yourself. Does the Count want to see Baybon perish?”

At those words, Earl Wiren fell to his knees in amazement.

“I’m sorry, but I didn’t mean that…”

“Hahaha. Guwain was just farming. But the truth is that there is less than a day left. It’s been half a day since Gwain lost his mind… Yes. Now it’s like half a day left.”

At the king’s words, even the nobles under the command of Count Wiren and the knight commander were wrapped in silence.

The longer the mob slaying takes, the more serious the damage to Baybone.

It wouldn’t have been strange if the kingdom had been ruined three times if the half-man’s top hadn’t been providing funds and manpower.

Viscount Royce, the leader of the 5th Knights, gave his opinion.

“If it’s half a day… there’s no time to give the soldiers a break. It may be a bit difficult, but we need to fortify the castle and create terrain that will block the advance of demons.”

At his words, other knight commanders and nobles expressed their approval.

“I agree. If we go on like this, Wang Seong…”

“You can do that, Baron. I also believe that Director Royce’s opinion is correct. Being prepared will surely buy you more time.”

Fortunately, there were no objections.

Right now, rather than resting for the soldiers, it was right to prepare to stand against the monsters even a little bit.

King Baybon nodded.

“Mobilize all the court wizards to fortify the castle and prepare for battle. And…”

He stood up from the bed and opened his mouth with difficulty.

“I’m sorry to the Harfman Company, but tell them to get out of Baybon now. Even though he is a merchant, he was very impressed with his generosity. I am still a friend of the prosperous wine. Can I disappear with ugly wine?”

At that, the nobles all shut their mouths.

Instead of clinging to him asking for help, the King let them go on his own knowing the grace of the Half Man Company.

Although it may have been a wrong decision for a king of a kingdom, it was enough to make the hearts of nobles who were originally knights cry.

The nobles responded by kneeling.

* * *

Hafman, who received a banquet from Baybon, seemed dumbfounded and said, ‘Ha!’ laughed

“This is the only reason I said that although he could become a good king, he could not become a sage king.”

Although the relationship between the king and merchants, they had many conversations and became like close friends.

When I ordered myself to leave the kingdom at the end of the day, I felt a bit sad.

No matter how much a merchant pursues profit, a merchant is a person before he is a merchant.

There was a sense of justice and a sense of duty.

If you’re going to help, shouldn’t you be sure to give it?

Halfman muttered as he stroked the bronze Ray-san once.

“…I’m sorry, Danju-nim. The half-man corps must die in Baybon.”

That moment.

Whoop-!

Mana gathered in the VIP room where Harpman stayed.

Beautiful blue mana gathers and gathers to create a passage.

A young man with white hair walked out of there.

A confident smile on his lips and arrogant blue eyes looked down at Harpman.

“Don’t die on your own, Harpman.”
