[Social Art]
It teaches you the skills necessary for social life!
Doctors do not only see patients in hospitals.
Of course, it is only during the lower years of residency that one is confined to a hospital. But as one moves uo the ladder, academic exchanges, academic activities, collaboration between medical staff, consultations with policy decision-makes, and encounters with avrious other social classes ought to happen.
There will be a lot of external activities.
It was like a kind of skill for such external activities.
But what social skills do I need to learn?
Raymond struggled.
Looking at the market, he realized that there was not just one type of social skill.Fịndd new updates at novelhall.com
[List of social skills]
Elegant speaking skillsAttractiveness enhancing fashion techniquesRoyal Palace etiquetteAristocratic social dance
There were a few more besides these.
All of these skills were necessary in aristocratic society.
The points arent cheap, but I cant buy them all.
Each one scored close to 100 points.
The problem is that it is not something that can be solved by purchasing only one skill.
I need to speak, practice, dance, and everything. I cant buy all of this.
While Raymond was thinking about it, he noticed a skill.
[The Banquets Fashionable Guy!]
Type: Auxiliary (Social arts) skill
Rating: Rare

-You will master the social culture (talk, etiquette, social dance, etc.) necessary for the banquet at the level of general aristocracy!

Oh! Isnt that great?
But the moment Raymond saw the next message, his face hardened.
[Side effect (handicap): If you wear a soft coat, your charm will increase!]
[Beware of accidentally seducing the opposite sex! It is a sin to make a lady cry!]
[100p consumption point (Its cheaper to use skills due to the side effects)]
Raymond looked puzzled.
Its just a necessary skill, but the system is reluctant to explain more about it.
Itll be okay, right?

Soon, the day of the founding banquet came.
While King Oden and Chancellor Galman were busy preparing to welcome the Peninsula Kingdoms envoy, the 4th prince Seytil and Count Garinson also prepared to welcome Raymond.
Look forward to it, Raymond. Ill let you suffer the greatest humiliation.
Seytil raved back to his plan.
Haha! Perfect! Be prepared, Raymond!
Seeing Seytil burst into laughter alone, the attendants quietly took a step back.
He seemed like a crazy person wh was lacking something.
But they werent the only ones preparing for the banquet.
Christine and Lao were also preparing.
Ready to protect Raymond at the big banquet!
Are you ready, Lao?
Yes, princess!
There must be a conspiracy against the master. Thats why we have to keep him safe.
Christine was well aware.
What a vile aristocratic society is. When a foolish weak person appears, they try their very best to bite them.
That tendency is especially strong for easy-going nobles. Im going to bite that person somehow, so it cant set foot here again.
Christine bit her nails.
No matter how well prepared you are, you are not paying attention to the situation. You have to not only look out for your patients, but also take care of yourself.
Christine sighed.
Raymond kept refusing even if she offered to teach him social skills.
The reason for his doing so was obvious.
Because he is a fool who only thinks about his patients.
I know the masters great heart, but the aristocratic society is a jungle of weak flesh. You cant get through it with a pure heart.
In the end, there was only one way.
She had to protect him.
Is this skill too much?
It just so happened that a message came to his mind.
[A quest will occur ahead of an important event!]

Raymond clenched his fist.

***
The National Foundation Banquet is held over two days.
Today was the eve.
To commemorate the founding of the nation, they must enjoy a banquet all night long.
It was a place for pure enjoyment, so most of the seats were occupied by young aristocrats.
Will Baron Penin come today?
I guess so?
Im looking forward to seeing what hell do when he comes.
The nobles burst out laughing.
Maybe hes going to show a funny side like the countryside.
It may smell. Keep him away from me.
Seytil looked pleased when he heard the story.
The atmosphere was flowing as he intended.
Come quickly, Raymond. Ill make it the best banquet. The waiting time for Raymond felt like an infinite amount of time.
Fortunately, it didnt take long for this sound to resonate.
Its Baron Penin!
Everyones eyes turned to the entrance of the banquet hall.
They could see a young man coming through the other side of the door. There was no clear appearance yet as he was still hidden by the shadow of the door.
Youre finally here.
What kind of look did he come to?
He didnt come back with his look when he is dealing with the common people, right?
And the moment they saw Raymond entering, the whole banquet hall was silent.
A young man with a soft impression, who exudes overwhelming charm, was coming in.
It was Raymond.
Everyone, regardless of gender, looked at Raymond in surprise.
So the air in the banquet hall began to flow in an unexpected direction.
***
Yuck! Whats going on? How did he do that?
Seytils plan was simple.
If Raymond shows a sloppy appearance, he would step up and give him a dogs hat.
Since he didnt learn the proper etiquette, he expected him to make all kinds of mistakes even if he was left it alone.
But why?
Far from making a mistake, a near-perfect etiquette was unfolding in Raymonds body.
The nobles admired Raymond when they saw him.
More than he thought Raymond seems to be very familiar with the etiquette.
Thats right. I think he made a lot of efforts separately.
Thats acceptable.
Courtesy was a very important factor in a face-conscious aristocratic society.
No matter how rich or powerful you are, if you do not know the etiquette, you will not be treated properly. Conversely, if you are good at etiquette, you will be recognized accordingly.
Why does he look so handsome today? Damn it!
Raymonds appearance shone today, as even Seytil, full of bad feelings, thought so.
I dont know why.
Hes handsome.
He looked cool.
Seytil also noticed that all the ladies attending the banquet are stealing glances at him.
Damn it!
