Then, an ugly middle-aged man sitting in the middle spoke to Raymond.

Try to fill in the heals.

It was a high-handed tone.

Is this Count Garrinson, whos in charge of this test?

Raymond noticed the identity of a middle-aged man.

Alright.

A candle-like light rose faintly. The judges laughed even more at the white light that seemed to be going to be extinguished at any moment.

Count Garrinson and the other judges laughed at him.

Im embarrassed to see this.

Isnt that much worse than an F grade? That can be stated to be a healing power even. Count Garrinson spoke in a sharp tone.

I dont think youre even qualified to take the promotion test. What are you thinking about taking the promotion test with that healing power? Is it funny to treat a patient? It was a touch of sadness in his tone as if pitying Raymond.

Another apprentice would have turned pale.

However, Raymond was not expressing a speck of anxiousness even.

I was expecting this. Raymond thought to himself.

Its a test interview.

So it was obvious that the attack would be focused on his healing power.

So Raymond had thought of an expected answer to how he would respond when this situation came.

The question is, how much convincingly I could present my argument.

I was fortunate to have the help of the heart of steel.

Otherwise, I would have been so nervous that I couldnt even bring it up properly.

I have to speak as coherently as possible.

Thinking so, Raymond breathed in.

To be honest, he was not a talker. Not even an eloquent speaker. What can he say so well when hes always been criticized all his life?

Calmly, his oratorical skills were average.

Thats why I prepared for this.

Raymond thought to himself.

Just in time, there was a skill that fits this situation in the market, so he bought it in advance.

Ill answer your question.

It was the moment when the story he had prepared came out.

A message came to his mind consequently.

[The skill Speech is manifested!]

[Speech]

Classification: Auxiliary Skills

Rating: Normal

Proficiency: D

Youll be able to talk better.

Synergizes with the heart of steel when serving the patients.

Raymonds voice became calm and firm without realizing it.

As soon as the examiners were startled, Raymond continued with a remarkable intensity and appeal to the speaker.

First, Ill answer the question of whether its funny to treat a patient. Its not funny. How can you think of that as a therapist? A therapist who has watched a dying patient by his side at least once would not dare to even think of such an idea.

The examination room became quiet.

Raymonds voice was heavy while containing the sincerity of thinking about the patient.

The examiners could no longer laugh lightly at Raymond upon seeing his heartfelt appearance.

Count Garrinson was also momentarily speechless before opening his mouth.

you know that your healing power is not qualified, right?

I know.

My heart is pounding.

Raymonds heart raced.

I couldnt believe that I was making such a proud and wonderful argument.

Im too aware of my own shortcomings. So I tried even harder only to save my patients. As much as I lack, the more I tried so hard.

There was a moment of silence.

They were overwhelmed by Raymonds words.

Count Garrinson frowned.

Count Garrison was going to give Raymond the lowest score in the interview by pressuring him but things were going unexpectedly.

It doesnt matter how hard you tried. The important thing is whether we can really save the patient or not.Rêạd new chapters at novelhall.com

It was a cold answer, but Raymond responded rather like this. Youre right. I agree with the Count.

Count Garrinson frowned.

Yes, if you treat the patient, youll pass, but.

You cant do that!

It was the moment to say that, but Count Garrinson didnt do so.

Raymond bowed his head with great joy.

Yes, thank you! Then Ill go and treat the patient!

.

The examiners looked blankly when they saw Raymond, who disappeared with excitement.

What is that? What is that?

They muttered in confusion.

Did he not know how difficult treating pressure ulcers is?

Why didnt he even try pulling his hair due to frustration?

They had no choice but to wonder all on their own.

***

Of course, Raymond knew what a pressure ulcer was.

He knows it in much more detail than anyone else on this continent. Certainly.

What a relief!

Raymond thought that Count Garrinson would flag when he heard it.

But Raymond meant it.

I was worried about which patients would be assigned to me. If its bedsores, theres no need for me to worry.

If it was a pressure ulcer, it is possible to treat it with the skill of a novice resident!

In Earth, bedsores are often treated exclusively at the resident level.

But for one reason, this is not an easy disease to treat for heals. Apparently, even a B+ class senior healer failed.

But because I am doing this, it will surely work.

With that in mind, Raymond arrived at the patients place.

This is the place.

When he opened the door and entered, a skinny old man was lying on the bed. The acrid smell pierced his nose almost instantly.

It doesnt smell good. Im sorry.

Franc, the son of an old patient, said apologetically.

I heard your bathroom stinks. It sure does smell bad.

Raymond thought to himself.

What I knew as knowledge and what I actually felt were the difference between heaven and earth. An unpleasant feeling came in.

But Raymond didnt show his heart on the surface.

If he shows dislike, they will surely get hurt.

Its okay. Its only natural because of the disease. I think the patient seems to be suffering a lot because of this. Rather, Raymonds answer, who was worried about the patient, made an admiring face. So far, all the other therapists have frowned on them. I am going to be different,

Raymond asked then. Does your father not move at all?

Yes, its been a long time since. He had been lying down like that because of old age.

Raymond nodded.

It was a typical case of pressure ulcer patients.

Lets look at the wound.

The employee who followed him along guided him to the patients body.

Its somewhat in the hip area. To be exact, there was a big hole in the flesh of his tailbone!

It was a horrible sight to look at!

The exposed flesh was full of inflammation and turned dirty. Not to mention the yellow pus flowing out. There were parts that turned black because they rotted here and there already.

Hmmm.

Raymond swallowed his saliva.

The condition was worse than he thought.

It was hard to look at because of his stomach, but I held it in.

But its a relief. No bones have been exposed yet. Thats enough. Its level three. I can cure it with my skills.

If bones are exposed and infected, treatment becomes very difficult. There were times when bones had to be cut.

Fortunately, it didnt seem to be in such a worst condition.

With this grade, he can recover quickly if he takes good care of it.

Oh, what do you think? asked Fran, guardian, in a trembling voice.

Since the therapist who had been spooned so far failed, he seemed to be very worried.

It can be cured.

Really?! Is that true?!

Frans eyes grew wider by the second in disbelief.
