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

Episode 290 Admiral Yi Dok (4)

As soon as night fell, Ray headed for the village chief’s house.

“I was reluctant to act directly, but I can’t help it.”

Originally, after grasping the situation well, he intended to speak directly to the Gaia Temple branch.

Although it is a branch, there are a large number of priests and priests in the temple, and even a small number of heretic judges.

I couldn’t stay still when I found out about this situation.

Of course, ordinary people couldn’t possibly know the circumstances of such a temple, and they couldn’t have doubts about what the priest said, so they would have to keep their mouth shut.

Besides, Ray is no longer a saint.

No one else, but of his own will.

His farewell to Saint Iriel was beyond good, and he touched the system of the Holy Kingdom to such an extent that he did not have to use his hands.

As such, there was nothing better to do with the Holy Kingdom.

On the contrary, he could not allow himself to borrow a hand from now on.

He moved as surely as he decided to move himself.

I quietly cast a spell on them who could be seen through the window sill.

“Sleep.”

As the priest and the paladin fell into a daze with a single word, Ray stepped inside.

As soon as you open the door, a musty smell hits you.

The village chief’s house was literally a piece of shit.

Aside from the piles of silver coins half-robbed from the villagers, food scraps that were thrown away from eating are scattered haphazardly.

The villagers, the owners of the village, were starving, but a young pig who came as a priest was very hungry.

“Even if I went to the Orc Village, it wasn’t like this.”

Ray frowned and walked around the messy room, scanning his surroundings.

Unorganized clothes and ashes that seem to have been burned are scattered on the desk.

Looking at her condition, it didn’t seem like it had been that long.

The small library is littered with books, and there are many scratches on the walls.

While looking around the study, Ray found a leather pouch underneath.

“huh? What is this?”

At first glance, there is a luxurious-looking leather pouch and a well-organized piece of parchment next to it.

Why did they put these in such a conspicuous place when other things were messy?

Suspicious, he opened the leather pouch first.

Then, a round mana crystal orb appeared.

“It’s a crystal ball for communication. Is the connecting place a holy kingdom?”

Priests or high-ranking priests who are usually dispatched to other countries receive one of these crystal spheres.

It wasn’t particularly unusual, so Ray turned his attention away from the crystal ball and opened the parchment.

A slight twitch appeared on his face as he glanced over the contents.

“Password?”

The parchment was all made up of one formula.

Even Ray doesn’t know what this means.

However, I had only seen a formula similar to this once, and that was Proxia’s Balho.

A group with the ability to summon Necromancers and even Bone Dragons who cause the undead are difficult opponents for him.

So, now that I have seen a password similar to that, I can’t help but feel dark.

What he thought was just corruption of priests and paladins turned out differently than he expected.

Perhaps, like Proxia, it may be a group made up of points.

If he hadn’t suffered from Proxia when he was in the Holy Land, even though the password was written on parchment, Ray’s suspicions were only amplified.

After thinking for a while, he finally let out a sigh.

“…I guess I have no choice but to entrust this parchment to the Holy Kingdom.”

* * *

Until the dark evening after dispelling the magic, Ray monitored the priest and paladin’s every move.

Then it was clear that he was the culprit who poisoned the well.

And that’s not all.

The priest not only tried to release the poison and sell the holy water, but he was even thinking of occupying the village.

I was dumbfounded when I heard it.

A priest who was even given the authority to command priests came to a foreign country and tried to act as a king.

Occasionally, while visiting the adventurer’s guild, he heard over his shoulder that priests were openly committing corruption, but he did not know that it was to this extent.

‘It’s worse than I thought. That paladin is also clinging to the priest to get his share.’

What kind of riches and honors would a priest who serves God even think about ruling the village?

Admiration comes out of that high faith.

Having grasped the whole situation, Ray no longer acted cautiously.

He raised his foot and violently kicked the door of the village chief’s house.

Kwaaang-!

In an instant, the wooden door flew away as if it had exploded, and the priest and paladin who were drinking tea inside reacted.

“Who are you!”

Chaeeng-!

The paladin took out his sword instead of answering.

A long bastard sword was pulled out.

Ray smiled viciously as he looked at the disheveled gambling table on the desk.

“They get together so much and do shit.”

“Who the hell are you! How dare you do something like this in the sacred place where the priest resides and you’re safe!”

“Have you ever awakened your innocence again after devoting your faith to God for too long? What are you doing at this age with gray hair?”

“You are so reckless!”

The clergyman was taken aback for a moment at the slutty talk that did not suit his age.

Ray’s words fell one after another, and his complexion hardened.

“I don’t know whose work it was, but the taste of the well killed me once. After drinking it, I really thought I could die.”

With just that one word, it was clear that their identities had been exposed to the other party.

At this point, the priest and the paladin were quite nervous.

“…What are you talking about?”

“It’s no use pretending not to know. I already heard it all with good ears.”

“It’s something we don’t know. The poison had spread throughout the village, so as a priest I couldn’t just ignore it.”

“It’s very unfortunate that the poison is released just when the priest came to the village. Even in a small village in the mountains like this.”

There was a certainty in the way he spoke with his eyes narrowed.

No matter how much you deny, the other person will not believe them.

Rather, I will continue to doubt.

However, the two did not back down.

On the contrary, he puts on an expression that he does not know the English language.

“Do you really think it makes sense that priests and paladins poison the well?”

“It makes no sense. But wherever you go, there’s always at least one madman.”

“Don’t frame me. I can assure you that I have never committed infidelity with a body dedicated to God.”

If Gaia had seen it, it was shameless enough that she would have struck her forehead and admired it.

“I don’t care what you say, but…”

said Ray, pulling out a piece of parchment.

The priest’s eyes widened at the familiar handwriting.

However, after recovering his complexion, he calmly speaks as if nothing had happened.

“What is that?”

I don’t know if it’s someone else, but it doesn’t work on Ray.

I already noticed something with just that small change in expression.

he grinned.

“Who else is above you? They even use a password, so it doesn’t seem like they’re a tolerable group.”

“The high priest is above us.”

“To say the obvious. I mean, other places where you get paid for your money, other than your superiors in the Holy Land. If you don’t want to tell me, you can go somewhere else.”

As if they knew everything, the priests and paladins thought inwardly.

‘He’s the one who even brought the parchment with the password written on it. There’s nothing strange about knowing more.’

‘It’s better to kill him and make him shut his mouth.’

The priest and the paladin glanced at each other and nodded.

He took out a small staff studded with mana stones from his chest.

“…it can’t be helped. Originally, I had no intention of keeping him alive, but now I really have to kill him.”

“It will be solved if I just kill you.”

The priests seemed to have no hesitation in killing innocent people.

There is no change in emotion, let alone resentment.

Perhaps this has not been done once or twice.

When the two of them showed their true colors in a battle stance, Ray crossed his legs.

As countless gaps were created from him, the paladin stabbed the sword first.

A sword coated with a sword aura made with divine power is threatening even at a glance.

Ray shook his foot slightly at the fierce momentum that came toward his knees.

Then, the paladin’s sword failed to catch the target and stabbed through the air.

Lei lowered the raised foot and gently stepped on the sword.

In an instant, the sword aura was shattered.

Kaaang—!

“Aww!”

The paladin, clutching his chest at the shock of the aura shattering, took a few steps back, and the priest hurriedly cast a spell.

“Heal! Holy protect!”

Ung-ung-ung—

with a short resonance of divine power, a bright light exploded around the paladin’s body.

Power itself is crude, but divine power is divine power.

The Paladin who suffered internal injuries immediately recovered.

“Thank you priest.”

“Goodbye, so get up.”

The paladin gulped at the gloomy mana that could be felt in one move.

On the contrary, Ray is only relaxed.

He clenched his fist and rushed at it with a smile on his lips.

When the paladin lifted the sword in amazement, the sword was shattered along with the Aura.

Kwaaang-!

Small fragments derived from the sword fly towards the priest.

Hedra priest screamed.

“Aaaagh!”

As the shrapnel lodges in the fat stomach, blood pours out.

Despite the intense pain, the priest pulled out the iron fragment and memorized the start language.

“Hey Heal…!”

Even if it rots, it’s called Junchi.

Since he was a priest with divine power one level higher than that of the priest, the effect of his recovery magic was considerable.

Of course, Ray wants it too.

The wound starts to heal rapidly, so you can hit it with peace of mind.

Besides, there is a lot of time until morning.

Ray’s fist hit the chin of the priest who was recovering.

In the midst of using divine power, as the bones were shaken, intense pain surged.

“Aagh! Stop that! If you do not recover, you will die!”

Baka-!

“Aaaagh!”

An unprecedented paladin intervened.

“die!”

Even with internal injuries, he raises a lot of divine power and swings his fist.

That effort was virtual, and Ray personally brought his face to him.

Device Geek—!

The fist collided with the face, and there was a sound like metal being crushed.

The paladin’s hand, which had collided with it, was crushed like a rag.

“Quaaaaagh!”

Not stopping there, when Ray clenched his fist again, the priest who was rolling on the floor spoke urgently.

“I will tell you!”

“No, you can’t say anything. Seongguk will decide who is above you anyway.”

The priest was refused to speak.

Seongguk is a huge country. In such a place, there is nothing that you can’t dig into the insides of those who have not been trained in torture.

So I felt at ease.

As much as I felt comfortable, I felt full of my heart to give back the hardships the villagers had suffered.

Ray, who had been intensively beating only the priest of Hedra, made a suggestion.

“Cure. As much as you healed, this guy gets hit instead.”

The priest thinks he is on the verge of dying now.

So I felt the need to buy some time.

Naturally, a starter word flowed from the mouth of the Hedra priest.

“Heal!”

The paladin who was holding her hand and weeping was fully recovered.

In the meantime, the priest cast a recovery magic on himself.

The paladin looked at the priest and gnashed his teeth.

“You despicable bastard…!”

Before he had time to say anything more, Ray’s foot poured into the paladin.

The paladin’s arms, which were blocking the mana-loaded kicks, snapped.

Then, the recovery magic is used.

“Heal!”

“Aaaagh! Stop that!”

The night was deep, but it was long before dawn.

Of course, the divine power of the priest still remained.

Ray knows it, the priest knows it, and the paladin knows it.

Hell opened up for them.
