Chapter 95:
How big is the reinforcement force?
I think it will be around 25,000.
It looks like the three northern powers are all missing.
Yes, because they have to keep the Iron Empire in check. Reinforcements were sent mainly from the neighboring countries like Peninsula Kingdom.
Its only 25,000. It is just condescending.
But it will be of great help still.
Although they are bound by the fence of the same empire, it is basically a different country. Unless there was a crisi that would shake the entire empire, it was rare for them to join forces.
This level of support alone was a great help.
If it werent for the evidence Raymond uncovered, it would be hard to expect even such reinforcements. Chancellor Galman suddenly thought this.
Raymond is the blessing to the Kingdom of Houston.
***
It wasnt just Chancellor Galmans thoughts alone.
So many people thought so as well.
We dont have to worry if we go to war!
Yes, the prince will cure us all!
Right! Dont worry and lets fight!
They all shouted courageously. On the other hand Raymond, who heard the story.
Im not participating in the war. Why are you looking for me?
He had a grim look on his face.
Ugh. How scary is war. Why would I go somewhere like that? Never. Definitely not!
I had no intention of joining the war.
Because its an advantageous war. The knights will win on their own while Ill make money in the capital.
Recently, he was fattened.
As his reputation built up, patients were flocking endlessly.
There were so many patients that two new students were added.
[Experience points accumulated!]
[Experience points accumulated!]
[Lets level up!]
[Lets level up!]
Before he knew it, he had accumulated a lot of experience, making him reach level 86.
Now, only 14 levels left until he rise up to the expert level.
Also, there was a better fact than levelling up which made Raymond happy.
Theres an aristocratic patient coming!
There was a stampede!
A lot of that too!
Thanks to this, the Penin Treatment Center was cruising in profit.
At this rate, repaying debts will not be a dream anytime soon!
I dont want to be in a scary battlefield! Ill make money here safely!
With that in mind, Raymond concetrated on treating his patients.
Welcome!
What is it that makes you uncomfortable?
While looking at the patient with so much energy, Hanson said as if he was respectful.
As expected, Master, youre making a bloody effort to treat as many patients as possible before going to the battlefield.
What?
I have no intention of going to war.
What kind of scary story is that?
Looking at it with his eyes, Hanson offered a document with an expression of I know all the feelings of the master.
This is the summons leader.
What?
What Hanson put forward was a warrant that was more frightening than a debt call!
Why me?!
Lao, who happened to be there for a visit, explained to him.
One to two people are obligated to participate in each noble family. Its a proud duty of the aristocracy. Its a tradition with the history of the Crusades.
Lao raised his one-eyed glasses.
For your information, I am also participating in the war as an administrator. Patriotic loyalty! In the spirit of noblesse oblige, I will do my best to serve my brother without shame.
But Raymond couldnt hear Laos words.
I have to go to war because I am a noble? How could that be?
With his mouth open in a daze, Raymond could only think of one thing.
Then I dont want to be an aristocrat. Ill knock an aristocrat out. Ill get rid of them here!
In this way, Raymond was faced with the brink of war.
***
Huh
We were barely making ends meet, and now there was a war!
What kind of lightning is this?!
Raymond blankly turned away from reality.
Senior Hanson, the Master is being a little strange.
He must be worried about the war that is yet to come in the future.
The narrative about the rescue technique was brought up first.
I came because I have something to ask you. Please allow me to teach simple first-aid techniques to the soldiers during the departure ceremony.
!
Both Oden and Galman looked surprised. Because it was an unexpected story.
What is a first- aid technique?
It is a relief technique wherein soldiers can treat themselves when they are injured. Its a secret skill for the general public, so everyone can learn it easily.
Raymond doesnt mean to teach something difficult.
Simple treatments such as more effective bandages, hemostasis, and disinfection.
These are things that anyone can do if they just learn them.
Just by tearing off the clothes you are wearing and tying the part closest to the heart can be very effective in stopping the bleeding. We cant provide medicinal herbs to everyone for disinfection, so they can use alcohol instead. If it doesnt work, they should at least wash it with clean water.
Just this amount will be tremendous help in increasing the soldiers survival rate.
There was a moment of silence.
It was a silence of admiration.
Chancellor Galman thought in surprise.
Thats great, thats great, Raymond, you mean this kid has nothing but the thought of being a help for others?
How is it, Your Highness?
Chancellor Galman asked King Odens opinion.
Thats not bad. Do so.
Its not that bad.
In interpretation, it meant great.
Chancellor Galman looked at Raymond with contented eyes.
Maybe it was because Raymond only chose to do proper things, but his eyes looked like he was looking at his own child.
Raymond clenched his fists at the atmosphere between the two.
All right. First of all, it set the tone in a favorable manner.
The fact that he brought up the idea of the first-aid training technique was groundbreaking.
Before getting to the point, this is a groundwork to make the reaction of the two more favorable.
Now that weve set the tone, its time to get to the point.
Theres another one.
Raymond looked straight at King Oden.
What is it?
With all due respect, but do you remember when I treated you from a poison before?
In the past, King Oden had been treated by Raymond after being poisoned by the Kingdom of Droughton while wandering through the Bay Area.
At that time, Raymond did not know that he was King Oden, but he heard about it recently when the events of the Kingdom of Droughton surfaced.
Yes, I remember.
Can I get additional compensation for what happened then? Raymond said.
Please allow me to establish a Penin treatment Center on the battlefield.
!
Thats my request.
Penin Treatment Center on the Battlefield!
That was Raymonds idea of a lethal move.
***
There was silence again.
Because it was a request that they never thought of.
Thats What do you mean? Arent you going to participate as a war healer anyway? Galman asked.
Raymond shook his head.
You have to do well here.
I had to pretend to care for the patient as much as possible.
Fortunately, his skill was activated.
[Speaking for the patient!]
[Speech skill is manifested!]
For the soldiers.
Hmm?
To be honest, a war healer only works for the nobility and knights. Isnt that right?
Galman nodded bitterly.
Healers are rare and patients are overflowing.
In such a situation, there was no healer to treat ordinary soldiers.
The reality is that wounded soldiers are abandoned to die without any treatment.
Also, I often waste time on many unnecessary tasks.
A healer is a highly educated workforce.
Along with wizards, they were often involved in paperwork.
I want to establish a treatment center on the battlefield and work solely for patients. I want to offer a healing touch not only to the nobles and knights, but also to the soldiers.
Raymond said, looking as patiently as he could.
No wonder Chancellor Galman was so impressed!
King Oden also saw a subtle shaking in his expressionless face.
First of all, create an atmosphere like this.
Of course, this wasnt all. Raymond had a plan.
