Doctor Player Chapter 380

Originally, Raymond planned to conduct the exploration of the ruins unofficially.

It is certain that it will fail, but if it fails, it is certain that bad rumors will spread.

‘Even the saint of poverty didn't do much!'

It was clear that there would be such a gossip.

But now?

‘There's nothing wrong with rumors like that. No, rather, I need it.'

Once the ruins exploration fails.

So, when people are disappointed in him, he takes advantage of the opportunity to turn the throne over to someone else who is suitable!

Then the troublesome throne will be solved, and the fight with Gideon will be naturally avoided. If he were far from the throne, he wouldn't be entangled with Grand Duke Gideon.

‘Perfect! Eureka! Let's proceed immediately.'

Raymond picked up a pen.

In one go, I wrote a reply to the crimson saint Orbia.

[I'll be there soon.]

* * *

Raymond prepared before departure.

He spread rumors that he was going to conquer the ruins of the Free Cities Alliance.

‘You have to spread a lot of rumors. I can't let it fade away.'

However, the rumor caused an unexpected wave.

“what? The Son of Poverty is conquering the ruins of the Free Cities Confederation?”

“Are you trying to press down on their noses?”

“As expected, our light!”

“Free Cities Union bastards! Wait, the saint of poverty is leaving!”

It was an unexpectedly violent reaction.

‘What is it and why is this reaction like this?'

Raymond tilted his head.

It was like cheering for an older brother who was about to beat up an ugly neighbor.

‘Weren't we close to each other?'

Raymond thought in bewilderment.

The Peninsula Kingdom has been trading with the Free Cities Association for a long time.

So I thought we were close?

“It’s close, but it’s also a relationship that goes through it. First of all, as close as we are, we have had the most wars.”

Rodin, the representative of the Medical Angels Corps, explained with a smile.

“And the people of the Free City Alliance are proud of being the center of the continent, so they often look down on our Crusader Empire as uncivilized.”

“ah.”

“Therefore, many people have an emotional resentment towards the Free Cities Association.”

Raymond understood.

In a word, although they are close, they are nasty neighbors who want to hit them.

Rodin added an even more unexpected story.

“In fact, for that reason, many people of the Peninsula Kingdom regard You as a hero for what You have done in the Free Cities Alliance.”

“yes?”

“Didn't you show kindness to the Grand Duchess of Gaebolg and wipe out the drug lords? From the perspective of our Peninsula Kingdom, it was like giving the Free City Alliance a cool shot.”

“ah… … okay.”

I don't think anyone sees him as a hero for that reason.

“It is not an exaggeration. In fact, Your Highness's accomplishments this time have completely changed the way the Free City Alliance members look at us, the people of the Peninsula Kingdom, so Your Highness is a hero who has elevated the status of the home country.”

Raymond sweated awkwardly.

‘I was just trying to make money.'

“Then what about the ruins this time?”

Rodin nodded.

“The ruins that Your Highness has decided to conquer are the ruins that the Free Cities Alliance has been unable to conquer for hundreds of years. If Your Highness conquers such a place, it will be like putting down their noses perfectly.”

“… … .”

“So now, on the street, every store has a placard hanging on it.”

Linden, who was listening from the side, nodded with a smile.

“That's right, Your Highness! ‘Peninsula light fighting!' ‘Be prepared for Free Cities Alliance!' ‘The saint of poverty goes!' It has these words written on it.”

‘… … It's not like I'm going to some martial arts competition.'

Raymond shook his head.

Sometimes there are similar cases.

Countries with bad feelings for each other had swordsmanship competitions, or knights had jousting matches.

In such cases, the people cheered enthusiastically as if some kind of festival had taken place.

Right now, the people of the Peninsula Kingdom seemed to regard Raymond going to conquer the ruins as a similar kind of thing.

“Our proud light will personally conquer your ruins!”

same?

Of course, Raymond's reaction was only embarrassing.

‘… … Anyway, there's nothing wrong with being a hot topic.'

Raymond decided to think positively.

But something even more troubling happened.

“His Highness, the Duke of Life, says he's coming!”

“Master?”

asked Raymond, startled.

Duke of Life!

It was his swordsmanship teacher who had never been properly taught and had long forgotten.

“They say they're coming to protect Her Highness, because they don't know what dangers there might be in the ruins.”

“… … .”

Linden whispered.

“And actually, he told me to keep this a secret, but he said he wanted to witness the great miracle Your Highness would accomplish.”

Raymond made a puzzled expression.

‘No, am I just going to be eliminated?'

But the Duke of Life was just the beginning.

- To conquer those legendary ruins. Alas, what a heroic move by His Highness. amazing. I will also go to protect Your Highness.

“Oh no. You don't have to come to Rina-sama... … .”

-Hoho, I can't fall for something like this. I will go without delay. There is probably someone who will go with you at the Magic Tower.

“A mage tower?”

-Yes, my teacher wants to see you.

“… … .”

Ryan's teacher.

It seemed that he was something extraordinary.

“If you don’t come… … Are you Rina? Miss Rina?”

I called urgently, but the communication was already cut off.

That's how Lina decided to come.

- Master! I'll join you too!

“… … What are you going to do with the Catal Kingdom, Your Highness, King Jude?”

- Master's work is our kingdom's work! Isn't Master the Cardinal of our Catal Kingdom?

Jude also decided to come.

Even with Sword Master Nahel Bonslon below.

I heard Nahel and Bonslon talking behind Jude.

-As expected, Maria's bloodline. You want to conquer the legendary ruins? You are a hero too!

-… … under. To challenge a ruin that has not been conquered for hundreds of years. As expected, a hero who cannot be compared to the likes of me... … How foolish you were to compete with such a great person.

“… … .” Raymond was silent.

But this wasn't the end.

said Christine.

“They say they come from the Master Healing Tower too?”

“A tower of healing? Why?”

The Tower of Light has already kneeled before Raymond.

So you don't have to come?

But Christine said something unexpected.

“They say they come from the headquarters.”

“… … !”

“Probably trying to confirm the Master’s rumors himself.”

Raymond understood.

‘Now the Tower of Healing is in great trouble because of me.'

The Peninsula Kingdom is the second largest market in the Tower of Healing after the Ecliptic.

However, since Raymond trampled on the Tower of Light, he must be grinding his teeth, and it seemed that he was going to check him out for himself this time.

‘… … I wouldn't be able to confirm anything. I'm just going to be eliminated.'

Raymond cleared his throat.

I was a little sorry to think that those high-nosed, high-spirited healers would come from afar and make a fool of themselves, but it was inevitable since he wasn't invited.

“and… … .”

“… … Is there anyone else to come?”

“Someone has decided to come from your castle, Rosette Kingdom.”

“Saint Rosette Kingdom?”

Raymond made a surprised face.

Castle Rosette Kingdom!

He was the leader of the tradition that established the Crusader Alliance Empire.

Although the national power has declined a lot recently, it has produced the most emperors in history and is like a giant tree in the Crusader Empire.

‘Why are you showing interest in this?'

Raymond made an incomprehensible face.

It is understandable that the Mage Tower or Healing Tower shows interest.

But what kind of castle is Rosette Kingdom?

‘Are you coming because you think I can become the crown prince of the Peninsula Kingdom?'

Raymond guessed so.

‘… … In any case, there would be no way to see that I would be eliminated immediately. Saint Rosette's Kingdom will be in vain.'

Raymond broke out in a cold sweat.

and last.

“Your Highness, an important letter has arrived!”

Prince Rashid rushed in!

Raymond glanced at Rashid.

‘A nasty bastard.'

By the way, Raymond hated Rashid without giving him anything.

However, Rashid, who is a little blind, didn't notice Raymond's gaze at all, and approached Raymond with infinite respect and blue eyes and handed out a letter.

“The Archduke Gideon sent me a letter.”

“… … !”

Raymond widened his eyes in surprise.

‘what brings you here?'

I opened the letter with a puzzled face, but ominous words were written.

[That's great. The Free Cities Association. I never imagined that he would do such a trick.]

The atmosphere was chilly from the opening phrase.

‘A graveyard? what?'

[A trick to persecute this Gideon by obtaining the full support of the Free Cities Alliance. It's definitely threatening. I admired it sincerely.]

“… … .”

[However, this Gideon will not sit still. Please have a safe trip.]

Raymond was silent.

‘… … No, you bastard.'

Anyway, after reading the letter, Raymond made up his mind again.

Let's fail coolly and pass the throne to someone else.

In that case, he would be able to walk only on the shining road of money, regardless of Grand Duke Gideon.

* * *

After that, it was the time we promised with Orbia, and we departed for the Free Cities Association.

With the shutter phone, the Free Cities Association was not a burdensome distance to go.

In particular, the Peninsula Kingdom was attached to the Free Cities Alliance, so if you took a shuttle phone, you could reach the ruins in about two days.

‘That's the dam in question.'

Arriving near the destination, Raymond made a surprised face in the sky.

A vast lake lay there.

The problem was that there was a huge dam at the end, and most of the water gates were firmly closed.

‘That's why you see drought damage every dry season. If only that sluice gate could be adjusted, most of the water supply shortages downstream would be resolved.'

I looked to see if I could make a waterway through another route, but the surrounding terrain seemed difficult.

He could understand why Orbia had asked him to do this.

It must be a very desperate task for the people of the Free Cities Alliance.

‘… … The problem is that I have absolutely no chance of conquering the ruins.'

Raymond broke out in a cold sweat.
