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

Chapter 586

Episode 586 Departure to the Royal Road (3)

Seeing how they react as soon as they show their presence, it seems that their skills are not that low.

Ray watched the two of them silently.

‘It’s a stable posture.’

Compared to Sylveria, the difference between heaven and earth.

At least, it must have reached the upper-intermediate level of the Auror user.

Ray, who had been standing there without taking any particular stance, kicked the ground.

Then his model shot out like a darting arrow.

“Huh!”

Viscount Mace, who swallowed his breath, hurriedly put his hand to his side.

Faaaaang-!

With a gong sound, Viscount Mace took a couple of steps back.

Ray also made a surprised expression as he did not know that he would block it.

“Oh, how is it?”

The face of Viscount Mace, who barely blocked one move, was black and dead, unlike the first.

He had a gut feeling with only one clash.

‘If we fight, it’s inevitable.’

I only blocked one light blow, but my hands were still tingling.

If he rushed to kill with sincerity, it was obvious that he would be killed without even a decent resistance.

That’s why he raised his voice even more.

“Yeah man! How dare you touch a noble! Do you think you will be safe even after committing such evil!”

“Heh heh. Who is the bad one, me who touched the nobility or you who tried to annihilate the entire county?”

It is a way of speaking that convinces them that they are the ones who sprayed the poison.

Viscount Mace, who had been stabbed inwardly, came out more confidently, erasing his embarrassment.

“What are you talking about! Can’t I just get down on my knees and apologize!”

“Take off pretentiousness. Aren’t you the culprit who poisoned the well? I was thinking about how to get the evidence, but I never thought it would come out on its own. Hey, it’s so fortunate that nobles are stupid.”

And there.

Ray looked at the censer in their hands.

A dark gray incense burner.

Undoubtedly.

That was probably a magic tool created by the Black Room.

The pattern skillfully engraved on the side of the incense burner is proof of him.

‘Is incense next to the flute that controls the monsters?’

Even with that alone, quite a few knights and nobles were dead.

Even Sylveria, a beginner user, fell asleep without knowing the world.

When Ray didn’t answer, Viscount Mace threatened again, probably thinking that his words were being taken.

“The crime of touching the marquess and viscounts in this kingdom is not small! If you leave immediately, I will spare your life!”

“Well, I don’t need to save you.”

“You’re a man who doesn’t know how precious his life is! Regret your foolishness!”

Viscount Mace gained a bit of confidence.

It was because he noticed the quiet Marquis of Garen chanting from behind.

‘If magic comes flying from behind, this guy won’t be able to move quickly.’

Moreover, the opponent came to protect Sylveria.

If it is necessary, it is enough to take her as a hostage and run away.

Viscount Mace, who was watching, quickly pulled out the sword stuck in his waist and swung it.

Wedge-Ae-Ae-!

The tip of his sword, which flew through the air, caught Ray’s throat.

At the same time, Marquis Garen, who finished the chant, also manifested magic.

“die! Ice spear!”

‘This is the end!’

A deep smile formed on the Marquis’ lips.

It would not be easy for even a 6th Circle Grand Mage to shake off both the swordsman and magic attacking at close range.

Moreover, he looked for a golden opportunity and even led the other party off guard.

This one move could never go wrong.

Viscount Mace’s sword passed through his throat, and the Marquis’ magic penetrated him.

The moment they wanted their attack to hit.

Faaaaang-!

With the sound of air bursting, the Viscount and Marquis’ attacks bounced back.

The sword staggered as it fell, and the recoil completely cut Viscount Mace’s chest open.

Undoubtedly believing in their victory, they gritted their teeth and prepared for the next attack.

Viscount Mace, who raised mana, quickly turned and retreated.

Then, like a ghost, a fist flew into the empty seat.

Whiik-!

‘Funny punching.’

It seems that he has no practical experience.

Viscount Mace sighed in relief and raised his sword.

However, the fist that must have struck the air twisted its path strangely like a snake, and soon followed the direction in which he was retreating.

He hurriedly raised his sword to try to block it, but the response was too late.

Ray’s fist pierced Viscount Mace’s abdomen.

“Cuck!”

Kwaaaang-!

The viscount’s body stretched out.

When Viscount Mace, who belonged to a prestigious swordsmanship family, collapsed without even using his strength, Marquis Garen, who was left alone, hurriedly approached Sylveria.

He took out a short dagger from his bosom and brought it to Sylveria’s neck.

“Don’t come. Any movement will kill this child. Don’t you want to do that too?”

Seeing that ugly figure, Ray smiled coldly.

It’s not enough that he tried to poison unrelated attendants, and now he can’t resist and even uses the lives of people who are sleeping as his shield.

Even goblins, who are called mere insignificants, do not do such mean things.

“Khehehe. Isn’t it enough to preserve life? Get out of here right now. If you don’t listen, I’ll cut off each child’s fingers.”

As if those words were sincere, the blue-edged dagger aimed at Silveria’s beautiful fingers.

Ray looked at the figure quietly and memorized a starter word.

“Hold.”

magic age.

A relic of the era when higher-ranking mages had omnipotent power to low-circle mages.

Upon recognizing his magic, Marquis Garen’s pupils trembled wildly.

‘Uh… how…?’

I couldn’t even think of what to do with my body that was hardened like a stone and couldn’t move.

His eyes didn’t know how to leave Ray, who was constantly approaching.

Ray snatched the dagger from the Marquis.

Then, at once, he put the sword into the Marquis’ grasp.

Pooh-!

The intense pain he had never experienced before made the Marquis Garen’s forehead swell with veins.

Ray asked while looking at the marquis’s red face.

“How does it feel to be unable to resist?”

Being bound by mana, the marquis could not even open his mouth and could not even scream at will.

He is truly a piece of garbage.

This guy was someone who could easily risk the lives of a hundred people to satisfy his own self-interest.

It wasn’t worth keeping alive, but killing it like this is not an example.

‘It must be necessary to suppress the spirit of the central nobles.’

If you think about the future, it would be better to put it in an underground prison.

Laying Viscount Mace and Marquis Garen in a corner (?), Ray immediately crushed the dark gray incense burner.

As one side of the spell was erased, the smoke from the incense burner gradually faded and then completely disappeared.

As the dark gray smoke that engulfed the inside of the mansion disappeared, the people who had been asleep woke up.

They all fell asleep as if they had fainted, so I was very perplexed.

The knights who forgot their duty and fell asleep ran to the office blaming themselves.

“Find the lord!”

“The Count is not in the Ji Office!”

They were summoned in the middle of the night, not because of the missing Count.

Ray, who was still watching the scene, decided to keep his mouth shut for the face of the count who was sleeping like spreading in the bush.

* * *

Silveria rubbed her eyes and stood up.

She passed out suddenly, so as soon as she got up, she looked around.

‘Why am I…’

I’m sure he was combing his hair after he got back to his room and got ready for bed.

My head was blank for an instant, as if I had passed out.

Then, Sylveria met eyes with Ray standing in front of the door and hurriedly covered her body.

“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”

I had to show the man I was wearing my nightgown.

Of course, it was covered with a light blanket, but it was the first time in her life that she was embarrassed.

I didn’t know that I would have such a big reaction.

Ray was also taken aback.

Seeing Sylveria dyeing her face red, he apologized.

“sorry. I didn’t expect you to be so surprised.”

“How can the great being above be in such a place…”

When will the suspicion of being a lizard be lifted off?

To lighten the mood.

Ray answered with a slight joke.

“A great being was preventing the count’s destruction.”

He kicked the Marquis and Viscount, who were lying in a corner, with his toe.

Marquis Garen’s mana flow had already been released, so he was stopping the bleeding from his grip that had been pierced with his own mana.

Only then did Silveria, who noticed the existence of the two, covered her mouth.

“Saving the Countess… I can’t believe it…”

“That’s right. Apparently, he tried to poison everyone in the count’s family. I’ll have to hear the details myself.”

At those words, Sylveria’s face turned blue.

“It can’t be… This is no small thing. We must speak to His Majesty the King immediately.”

Know.

However, Count Sylvester hadn’t been able to afford that yet.

tax evasion charges.

On top of that, he had already lost contact with the central nobility.

The last king’s will was not enough to make it checked by the royal family and the central faction.

As a result, Count Sylvester was isolated from the Heron kingdom.

Even if she confessed the truth to the king in the current situation, it was uncertain whether punishment would be properly carried out.

Because of that, Ray thought he had no choice but to go directly to the capital and negotiate.

‘Looking at what he’s done so far, the king is quite stubborn. There’s no way the royal family will take care of it simply because they caught the culprit who spread poison in the count’s family.’

That’s why it was best to go to the royal road with Count Sylvester and transport the culprit to the royal family.

Unless, of course, it is accepted.

I couldn’t.

Ray put a lot of time and energy into catching these two.

I had no choice but to ask the Heron royal family for such a reward.

without knowing what he was thinking.

Marquis Garen, who overheard the story, secretly smiled.

‘Cluck cluck. The moment you talk to the king, you guys will be in vain.’

After all, they would be freed with the help of the central nobility.

In the end, it would be satisfactory as a royal family because you can get rid of the count family, which you regard as a thorn in the eye.

I don’t know what the outcome will be.

The Marquis laughed at them inwardly.
