Chapter 91:
Thank you so much for coming! Please save the people within this territory!
Oh, no. Please stand up.
Raymond shook his head in embarrassment.
But it wasnt just the boy lord.
The residents of the territory who were dead inside also came up to Raymond and knelt down.
Please, save us.
Ugh. I do not want to die yet.
Soon the estate turned into a sea of tears.
Raymond clenched his fist as he heard them cry.
Will I be able to make it?
To be honest, I dont know if I can solve it or not.
We dont even know what the epidemic is yet.
But he bit his lips.
Im sure Ill sort it out somehow.
I will ensure that no one dies in vain.
Because he is a healer who is responsible for saving peoples lives.
Raymond made that firm decision to himself.
***
Then, at the the mountain overlooking the Lenton estate.
The mastermind of the plot, the white suit man White Sox was smiling dirty.
The purge will begin?
Yes, it appears that the estate will soon be burned.
Tsk. Tsk. You fools. They dont even know that thats what we want! The Wight Sox laughed loudly.
It was an unbelievable story!
Is he saying that the strange disease currently circulating in the Lenton Territory is not an infectious disease?
Theres no way those ignorant Houston guys would notice. They will be frightened and eager to burn the estate.
This Lenton estate is only the beginning. Were spreading this fake epidemic all over the Houston Kingdom, White Sox said in a cheerful voice.
Thouse Houston bastards will burn down countless estates with their own hands without even knowing that this is a fake epidemic. They will be devastated before the war even starts.
This was the substance of the conspiracy created by Archduke Berard!
Spreading a fake plague and devastating the Houston Kingdom! The ignorant Houstonites will burn countless fiefs with their own hands in terror, and will fall apart before they can fight due to chaos and fear.
As expected, his Highness Grandduke Berard, who slaughtered his political opponents through all kinds of evil tricks and took the throne. I cant believe he came up with such a great plan.
It was time of admiration.
As if on cue, a subordinate came running with an urgent expression on his face.
A figure has just entered the Lenton estate. It seems to be the Baron Penin!
Baron Penin? The Wight Sox had slightly surprised eyes.
Raymond de Penin!
He has been the one who has run aground in numerous plots.
The only one that Archduke Berard cares about.
Its alright.
But?
There is no possibility that any man will see through this conspiracy. Unless he even knows alchemy.
Alchemy.
The Wight Sox brought up a strange word.
He seems like a pretty knowledgable guy, but hes still a healer. There is no way a healer would know alchemy. Wight Sox thought confidently.
He will have no choice but to watch people die in despair.
***
The patients are gathered in the town hall over there.
The boy lord led Raymond.
Raymond tilted his head at the boy lords silver hair.
You look like someone I know.
Raymond remembered a character who had nothing to do with this place.
Marquis Aris.
He, the leader of the Royal Knights and one of the most powerful knights in the kingdom, had such silver hair.
The boy lord seemed to have noticed Raymonds gaze and spoke humbly.
I have silver hair. Its an unusual color, isnt it?
The boy lord, Lenton, asked in a nervous tone.
Raymond closed his mouth for a moment and replied with a stiff face.
I think I need a little more time.
The investigation has only just begun.
I promised myself that I would find a solution within 24 hours when the shield spell ends.
***
However, even after some time, Raymond could not find an answer.
I have no idea. There was an epidemic like this in Laipentaina?
Raymond murmured incredibly.
For reference, if you look at his academic skill category, His Endemic Epidemiology was ranked A.
During his time as an apprentice, he could be considered an expert on infectious diseases due to the knowledge he gained from constantly studying the infectious diseases in Laipentaina.
But he couldnt guess anything at all right now.
First of all, this is an infectious disease that first appeared in the Kingdom od Houston. No, even in the entire Cross League Empire, I have never heard an epidemic like this.
When such a terrible epidemic spreads, it is bound to be recorded in history some way.
But I never heard of it.
Raymond simply did not understand the fact.
Its like a newly created epidemic. Is this possible?
Then, the boy lord rushed in.Oh, we are in trouble, healer! The soldiers outside are giving an ultimatum!
Surprised, Raymond went out and saw Cliang approaching with a stern expression on his face.
The promised twenty-four hours are running out, Baron June.
Sir Cliang.
Personally, I respect the barons will for his patients. But I dont think I can give you any more time. The neighboring lords, who are concerned about the spread of the epidemic, continue to urge the eradication.
Cliangs face hardened even more.
It seems to have taken a great deal of effort to prevent the acquisition of the surrounding lords to buy Raymond time.
Damn, unless I offer a clear solution, I wouldnt be able to stop the eradication.
However, the identity of the has not yet been revealed, let alone a solution.
What the hell is it? a neurological disease. I think I heard it somewhere.
It is definitely not an epedemic that has happened before.
But the strange thing is, Ive vaguely heard of a disease with similar symptoms.
But its not an epidemic. The name of the disease.
It didnt come to his mind clearly.
The memory was on the verge of evisceration.
But.
At that time, a soldier rushed in.
Its a big trouble, sir Cliang! There has been an infected soldier among the soldiers!
!
Raymond and Cliang looked at each other in surprise.
What happened?
After the break, he suddenly complained of paralysis and collapsed. There are as many as ten people.
I think we need to start the eradication right now. The epidemic will spread out of control at this rate.
The boy lord who was standing in fear, was surprised and blocked the front, spreading his hands. You cant burn innocent people to death!
Baron Lenton. It cant be helped. The Baron is also in danger, so please get out of the estate. His Excellency, the Marquis Aris will be concerned.
Oh, no.
There is no other way.
Tears welled up in the soft-hearted blue eyes of the lord at the thought of having to burn the people of his territory who had been like family to him.
Raymond looked helplessly at the estate too.
Youre burning everyone in there? Youre not feeling guilty at all? He clenched his fist tightly.
Think of it! There is no way this terrible epidemic has appeared for the first time! There must have been an outbreak in the past!
But nothing came to his mind.
No other infectious disease shows signs like that
Wait.
At that moment, Raymond made a sudden change of mind.
Is this not an infectious disease?
There has never been such an epidemic.
Then what?
What if its not an epidemic?
