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

Chapter 710

Episode 710 The Unanswered Kingdom (3)

The Marquis of Veron.

It was one of the great nobles of the royal capital and at the same time a prestigious family that shared the long history of the Kingdom of Gleiman.

Because of what just happened, Marquis Veron was very upset.

“I dare not even know the subject.”

As he calmly brainwashed, the sharp-looking man standing next to him lowered his head.

“Just give me instructions.”

It’s not like he’s done it once or twice, but he looks very familiar.

The Marquis of Veron gnashed his teeth.

“No, this is the first time I have collided with the captain. It is premature to move now.”

“Are you saying there’s no good reason yet?”

“okay. We need an excuse to put pressure on the Royal Knight Commander.”

“If that’s the case… Although there is no plan, will Klein be brought into politics?”

At the words of the chamberlain, the marquis stood tall.

pull into politics?

At his words, the Marquis of Veron was troubled.

‘If he makes a mistake, Klein will become a monster who has even seized the power of the political world.’

The title of the 1st Knight Commander is quite heavy.

There is not much power given, but in case of emergency, there is absolute authority to move the military without the king’s order.

That’s why other nobles are trying to line up.

However, even so, it is unlikely that he, who has been in control of the royal family for a long time, will be pushed out of the fight.

Or rather, the political world was the place where even the royal knight commander could be replaced if the number of cases was well managed.

It’s a double-edged sword, but it’s perfect for justification.

Marquis Veron grinned sinisterly.

“That’s good. Engage Klein and give him trouble. A problem that an idiot who has wielded only a sword all his life cannot solve.”

“I will do as you command.”

The chamberlain lowered his head again.

“Do you want to go back to the mansion right away?”

“okay. I’m tired today, so I’ll have to rest early.”

“All right.”

When the Marquis of Veron got into the carriage, the chief chamberlain sat in the coachman’s seat with the coachman.

Eventually, when they headed for the mansion.

Behind them were several figures following them.

* * *

After returning to the mansion and having a meal and a bath, the Marquis of Veron lay down in the bedroom.

The bed felt quite comfortable at the thought of drowning Klein.

After tossing and turning a few times, he soon fell asleep.

when he is having a good dream.

The voice of the mysterious woman was heard in my ears.

“Wake up.”

Did you know that if a woman harbors resentment, there will be frost even in May?

Marquis Veron frowned at the sharp voice that would make the back of his neck go cold.

“Ugh. Who are you?”

“Don’t you dare question me.”

Pooh-!

I felt a warm sensation in my thigh.

As the extremity pain spread in the drowsy state, the Marquis of Veron screamed as if being torn apart.

“Quaaaaagh!”

without even rubbing your eyes.

Looking around with open eyes, I see eight human figures beyond the sword-pierced thighs.

His face was hidden in the darkness, so he couldn’t see his face in detail, but what was certain was that his eyes full of life were all looking at him.

I was covering my mouth with a black cloth to hide my identity, but in the middle of the night, only the light in my eyes flashed in fear.

The Marquis of Veron hurriedly retreated into the bed.

“Who sent them! what do you want!”

“You are stupid. I would have told you not to ask questions.”

Among the eight, the smallest woman shook her head.

and in the blink of an eye.

Pooh-!

The knife was again lodged in the thigh on the other side.

“Aaaaaagh!”

Hot blood gushed out.

The bed was already soaked with blood.

Seeing him clutching his leg in pain, this time the man on the other side with his arms crossed moved.

“It is absurd that such a chaff dared to insult the lord.”

A terrifying force emanated from him.

Marquis Veron, who had at least some knowledge of magic, could intuitively feel it.

This was not an atmosphere that a normal person could have.

Momentum possessed only by the Absolute One who puts everyone under his feet.

It felt like I was facing the Master right in front of me on the battlefield.

My body started to tremble as I began to be weighed down by the momentum.

“You insulted someone who should be honored to see you with the naked eye today. I want to cut out my naughty tongue right away, but…”

He untied his hand as he touched the sword bottle hanging from his back.

Then, at once, he pulled out the sword stuck in the thigh of the Marquis of Veron.

Suwook-!

The raw flesh split open and blood leaked out again.

I wanted to scream out in great pain, but strangely, when I was overcome with fear, I couldn’t open my mouth.

This time, he took a clear glass bottle out of his pocket and started pouring it over the wound.

rippling-!

The penetrating scar gradually disappears with a weak blue light.

Marquis Veron cleared his chest.

‘Fortunately, he doesn’t seem to have the heart to kill.’

I don’t know how he managed to break through all the guards in the mansion, but the fact that no one came even after screaming like this must mean that there was a reason for that.

Well, no matter how many of them they are, they probably have no desire to pretend to be with anyone else but the prestigious marquess of the royal capital.

The Marquis of Veron gnashed his teeth inwardly.

I will definitely repay you for this deed.

when he is quenching his seething anger.

The man who was treating her suddenly grabbed a sword and stabbed her in the knee.

Bones were cracked, and cartilage and ligaments were cut helplessly.

“Keo-eo-eok!”

The pain was so intense that bubbles came out of his mouth, and Marquis Veron couldn’t even breathe properly.

why?

I wouldn’t have thought of killing him.

As if to answer that question, Zeke grinned and said.

“The night is still long.”

* * *

The next day was bright.

Unable to win the support of nobles, Ray finally prepared to go out alone.

“I knew it would end like this.”

If I had known it would be like this, I would have clung to the royal family.

A sigh came out of my mouth.

But what can I do?

If he had asked the royals anyway, the result would have been the same.

Thinking about it made my heart feel a little lighter.

What the Black Bang is aiming for now is the death of the Demonic Church and the bishop.

There are still a few branches left in the capital, so I think you’ll probably come to one of them.

‘The sooner you act, the better.’

There are a total of three branches of the Demonic Church that remain to this day.

I had to make a careful decision as I didn’t know where the black room was going.

It doesn’t matter if the Demonic Church is destroyed, but it’s difficult if the damage spreads nearby.

Laying the map open on the table and thinking about it for a long time, Ray finally chose a branch a little far from the castle.

Although it is far from the capital, the distance between branches is remarkably close compared to other places.

Once he made up his mind, he acted quickly.

Folding the map and putting it in his leather backpack, he immediately left the castle.

The target is the outskirts of the royal capital.

It was the place where the Demonic Church was established.

* * *

Clink!

A man passing by throws the bottle away after finishing his drink.

After the Black Room’s attack, the security around the Demonic Church has deteriorated to the point of viciousness.

Bandits from the nearby mountains openly take tolls and robbery is rampant.

No matter how outskirts it may be, the glory of the royal capital no longer existed there.

The 3rd Demonic Cult branch of the royal capital.

The priestess with long, tan hair sighed.

“I ran out of food now…”

Tea leaves and even food became scarce.

Since the street changed like this, the merchants’ footsteps have slowed down.

The branch here, which is run by believers’ funds, was also cut off from money, so it was impossible to buy food from other places.

How should I get out of this difficulty?

at that time.

The hahahoho laughter of children came from the hallway.

“Priest! Look at this! I made it!”

“Hey, I helped you!”

The children left behind by the believers came in line.

A face full of mud.

He didn’t even change his clothes on time, so he was dressed in a sloppy outfit.

The priest, who hid a worried face, looked back at the children.

What he was holding in his hand was a small seal made of clay.

“This is the priest!”

He smiled as if he was happy while talking, but somehow the contrast between that laugh and the current situation made his appetite bitter.

She smiled, trying hard not to show it.

“Did you make it? Kane is good with his hands.”

“I will be a mason when I grow up! If I make a lot of money, I’ll take the priest too!”

“Ho-ho-ho. would you please?”

As I gently stroked her hair with a sense of pride, she happily pulled her neck out.

The priest thought to himself.

‘Why are the parents of these children still not coming?’

I had promised to come back in a week or so before leaving.

However, few parents visited their children for a week, two weeks, and then a month.

Could it be that he abandoned it?

Unbeknownst to me, I started to have bad thoughts.

The priest shook his head to shake off his thoughts.

It can’t be. It’s probably because the situation in the capital is not getting better, so I can’t come.

As I spoke to myself, I calmed down a bit.

okay. In the meantime, let’s protect these children.

I robbed the food without her, as I promised again.

last round.

The only thing that was available was dried meat like beef jerky, but if you put the porridge in a thin broth, you’d probably be able to taste the broth.

It was when she was about to prepare lunch.

Deeng-! Deeng-!

Outside, the bell announcing a visitor rang.

Who is it?

Could it be that the children’s parents came?

The priest gave up what he was doing out of anticipation and went to the door.

“Who are you?”

“I am a knight dispatched by the royal family.”

Now that the royal family has dispatched knights?

She had some doubts, but wanted to overcome the difficult situation as quickly as possible, so she opened the door without much hesitation.

Hey hey-!

The door opened with a familiar friction sound, and a white-haired knight came into view.

The hair swaying in the breeze and the blue eyes that can be glimpsed between them give off a sense of mystery.

The curved nose bridge and the tail of the mouth that went up slightly seemed to be compared to the elves, which are said to be a race of beauty.

She was mesmerized by her speechless appearance.

“nice to meet you. This is a gift, please accept it.”

He touched the leather backpack he had set down in front of the door.

It contained a full supply of food that the priest had longed for.
