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

Episode 287 Admiral Yi Dok (1)

Ray prepared to leave early in the morning.

I put the blankets in order and put the iron pot I had washed in the stream into my backpack.

I sprinkled charcoal here and there in order not to entangle the monsters for no reason, and the body odor, though weak, was erased.

He followed the price and went up.

This is a place that is not even on the map.

Therefore, it is safer to go up along the stream, and it is also easier to memorize.

Had it gone back that long?

In front of my eyes, I began to see a small fence that seemed to be the entrance to the village.

Ray tilted his head.

“It’s amazing that a town like this is here.”

In general, villages are the basis for distribution of income wherever they go.

You have to leave the mountain behind and look at the water, and the calmer the downstream, the better.

However, this village is right in the middle of the day, but it is not downstream.

No, on the contrary, it belongs to the upper class.

Originally, it is a key point where rapids are created when the water current is strong and it rains.

There was a village in such a place, so it couldn’t help but be strange.

Ray glanced around.

In the houses, the trees are ripe and the sun shines brightly there, so the scenery is very good.

From the outside, it is an ordinary village with nothing strange at all.

But people didn’t look like that.

The cornea, glimpsed between the thinned cheeks and pupils, is only cloudy.

Her skin and hair were completely dry with no shine whatsoever.

I can’t tell if this is a corpse or a living person.

Ray took off his suspicious-looking mask and approached the man who was walking around.

“Your complexion isn’t looking good. What’s wrong?”

As a handsome young man approached, the villager was speechless for a moment, swallowing.

Within a moment, he came to his senses and responded.

“You are from another country. Whoa… nothing to say. It’s just that the village is torn apart.”

Even if they are usually poor, they are not this poor.

In addition, some people vomited and their faces turned black.

Even if you think about it simply, it was far from malnutrition.

Ray hardened his expression.

‘Not one or two, but at least five or six were poisoned.’

After looking around a few times, he spoke in a low voice to avoid causing a commotion.

“Poison is spreading in this town. If we leave it like this, we will all die.”

I didn’t even say it, but when the problem of the village was discovered, the man made a surprised face.

“How did you know?”

“yes? Did you know that poison is spreading in the village?”

“…This is actually a secret…”

continued the man who looked around anxiously.

“A priest has come to our village. He told me never to talk about addiction, so I’m keeping it quiet… but these days I’m really dying.”

Don’t talk about addiction?

I can smell it just by looking at it.

“At first, our village was also quite affluent. But at some point, the children got sick one by one and I donated money to the priest for the medicine…”

“Donation?”

“yes. He makes holy water through prayer. Thank you very much for exchanging a small amount of money for precious holy water.”

Contrary to what I say, I don’t feel gratitude at all in it.

If you’ve heard this far, you can probably guess.

Listening to the story, Ray felt a bad sign and said to the man.

“Where is that priest?”

“He is staying at the village chief’s house.”

“I’d like to see your face somewhere. Can you guide me?”

The man shook his head.

“I wouldn’t recommend it. Farming in a village is not something I would say, but the priest doesn’t like someone coming. You may be very disappointed.”

Disappointed.

If even a villager can say this, you can see how the priest has been living in this village.

He would have persecuted the weak and reigned in them.

In the future, he takes the form of a saintly man who distributes holy water, and in the back he steals donations.

It was probably the problem with the supply of holy water that I couldn’t say anything despite such an unmanned action.

Sensing uneasiness in the man’s appearance, Ray stepped back with a friendly smile.

“Yes. Then I will lend a helping hand.”

“Oh, how can I thank you for this…”

“What kind of thanks.”

Ray, who was harvesting crops, stared at one side.

It’s strange no matter how you think about it.

If priests sold real holy water, it would be normal for those suffering from poisoning to be completely cured as if it had never happened.

However, when I looked around, it seemed that the poisoning had progressed quite a bit, rather than being completely healed.

‘There must be something for sure.’

Ray decided to stay in the village for a while and see an opportunity.

* * *

After helping out with farm work once or twice, the villagers came closer to him before they knew it.

A man severely poisoned with poison walked over his shoulder while sweating profusely.

“You do a really good job at this.”

A Ray that far surpasses Aura users simply with its physical abilities.

Moreover, that brain has even been called a devil in modern times.

No matter how complex formulas and movements are, they memorize them at once.

Equipped with an indefatigable body and an incomprehensible resourcefulness, farming was done with ease.

Since he is good at his job, he naturally has no choice but to get closer to the villagers.

Now I’m stuck with the competition in my heart.

“Don’t keep bouncing and come in as our son-in-law? You know, how is our daughter a little bit pretty? You can say she is the most beautiful woman in this town.”

“Ugh, there is nothing a weakling can say to someone else’s son-in-law. Where do you dare to cross? When it comes to beauty, my daughter is a step up.”

“joy. Your daughter, who has no strength and cries?”

“what?”

They grabbed their tools and glared at each other.

I tried that, but Ray couldn’t eat at all.

Aira was attached to him like a stick.

If it’s off-white, she’s unmatched by anyone.

Since ancient times, I have been looking at the crystallization of beauty, so my eye level naturally rises.

No, it would be more correct to say that I don’t care about the other person’s appearance anymore.

When the two of them didn’t do what they were told to do and just growled, Ray scolded them.

“I only do it in my own house. If you fight again, I will not help you in the future.”

At his thunderous words, the two of them smiled as if they had never done that.

“Are you fighting? Just kidding around. ha ha ha.”

“ha ha ha. Aren’t we originally a bit radically close?”

A few weeks of work was over in a few days because of one ray.

Now, his share among people was by no means small.

Of course, Ray didn’t just help with the farm work and eat and sleep.

Until now, he had been finding out the atmosphere and suspicious points in the village one by one.

But unfortunately, there is no big harvest yet.

‘Actually, the priest really gave me holy water, but wasn’t the poison so strong that I couldn’t fix it?’

There are a few doubts, but I can’t decide everything with my heart.

Rei nodded, proud of her self-proclaimed fair-mindedness and disinterestedness.

‘okay. After all, you can’t evaluate a person only with doubt.’

You don’t know what the world is doing.

* * *

When he finished all his farming work and was about to return to his cabin as usual.

A suspicious smell rose from the well.

It was so feeble that even Rei wondered if he had been in the wrong place for a moment.

He drew water from the well, dipped his finger in it, and tasted it.

When the culprit had a sour taste that he would not have known even if he was conscious of drinking it, Ray frowned at first.

Throw the basin of water into the well.

“This is poison. It is a poison that is strong enough to cause death if it flows into the body.”

Since it’s a feeble amount now, the villagers’ reaction will come late, but if you take this for a long time, everyone living in this village will die.

I don’t know who the culprit is.

But I knew that he was a madman who poured poison into a well.

And I know who benefits the most from this problem.

Ray spat out the sour poison that he felt in his mouth.

Common sense suggests that no one would hold a grudge in a town like this.

No, even if there was, they would have released a large amount of poison and killed them all at once.

“It would make sense if the well was poisoned, used as an antidote, and sold holy water. This is a very damn baby. ”

If this turns out to be true, the Holy Kingdom will be greatly criticized.

Even so, the appointment of priests could only be made in the Holy Land.

Since it was a matter of granting the power of a god, there was no way that a single kingdom could appoint a priest.

As the first started in the castle country, the castle country takes all the benefits and disadvantages.

Since the matter was large, Ray decided to look into it a bit more.

But that doesn’t mean I’ll just sit back and watch.

It’s almost like innocent people being massacred without knowing anything.

Ray gnashed his teeth.

“Where else did you get this interesting poison? I will pull it out to the very root.”

* * *

After two more days, the first sick child began to appear.

At that point, the seriousness of the situation became more prominent.

Meetings continued in the village every day.

The villagers gathered in the pavilion let out a sigh.

“Whew….”

“If this happens, everyone will be poisoned and die.”

“Don’t say anything stupid. There is a priest who is said to be famous, so won’t it be okay somehow?”

“If it was a problem, it would have been solved a long time ago. I’m not doing this because that doesn’t work!”

As his voice gradually rose, the village chief stopped him with an embarrassed face.

“If we are agitated, the children will only be anxious. Keep your voice down as much as possible.”

When the word child came out, those who were shouting fell silent.

In the conversation that fell into a lull for a moment, a large man spoke first.

“So… does anyone know of a better way?”

“…everybody knows that it’s not good as it is, right?”

“…”

As the crowd waited for his words, the man hesitated for a moment before speaking with a big heart.

“How about moving the village?”

It’s not that everyone hasn’t thought about it.

It was just that he was reluctant to abandon the ground he had lived on and set up another place.

But now things are a little different.

Rather than dying in the village like this, going to a foreign country is a wise choice.

In normal times, the village chief would have yelled at him and told him not to even think about it, but now he had a serious expression on his face.

“Ugh. Do you think the same?”

When asked for their opinion, the rest nodded slowly.

There was a slight time difference, but when everyone present agreed, the village chief nodded.

“…It’s nothing special now that things have gotten this far. Pack up. There is a pretty good site just beyond one mountain, so I’ll prepare for three days and start anew there.”

The village chief directly ordered the relocation of the village, and the villagers rose from their seats.

It is a village where they have lived together all their lives, but since their family is threatened, they have no choice but to move their reluctant hearts.

“I made a decision, but I can’t help feeling empty.”

“Is there any other way? Let’s not talk nonsense, let’s pack our things.”

They finally gave up the current town.
