Chapter 120

Perhaps he understood, Duke Raif had a serious face while Raymond called for joy inside.

‘Good! The Duke has no choice but to be good to me in the future!’

Now the Duke Raif will be anxious, hoping that Raymond will be his disciple.

I succeeded in making him a pushover!

‘Even tough I have no plans in becoming a knight.’

Raymond grinned satisfactorily.

Thus, the meeting with Duke Raif was successfully concluded.

***

Everything went smoothly, but one thing changed.

The number of patients has decreased dramatically.

To be precise, fewer patients visit the Penin Treatment Center.

“Because the battlefield has moved.”

Lao, whom he hadn’t seen in a long time, said.

He joined the army as a staff and was steadily building up his achievements.

A special promotion is scheduled when he returns to the administration.

“Until now, the battlefield was limited to the Rafald region, the northern region of Droughton. But now, the battle expanded all the way to the central region. Now this place only serves as a command center.”

This means that patients could not come because the battlefields were scattered all over the central region and the distance to come visit here is too long.

‘Well, I’m in trouble. I can’t help my patients like this,’

Raymond patted his chin.

‘I can’t take credit for it.’

‘Although, haven’t I done enough work up until now?’

‘Yolk territory alone is not enough. I should get a big reward.’

It is not only territory that can be received for merit. A person can also receive a big reward.

Raymond intended to win not only the yolk but also a large reward.

Then, Lao brought up another story.

“Oh, brother. Come to think of it, I’ve got a letter. Two letters.”

“What?”

Both letters were from unexpected people.

First is from Princess Sophia. “Does she want to send me somewhere?”

It seemed so.

[I heard the news. You’re pretty decent. Still, you never know when your luck may leave, so please be careful in the future.]

Raymond had a confused face.

Now that he had read it many times, he understood Princess Sophia’s speech style.

She is expressing concern.

‘......She’s probably worried, right?’

Actually, he is not sure.

[By the way, I heard you have a knack for saying things in an unflatteringw ay. If it were my real younger brother, I would’ve fixed your long hair.]

The second letter was also from an unexpected person.

Rose Youngae!

She was the representative of Healer Loan.

It was in response to a loan request filed by Raymond.

‘I shouldn’t have opened my hands to the Healer Loan. I could not afford this.’

Raymond sighed.

Hundreds of thousands of pennies he ripped off from senior healers? It’s been a long time since he used them all.

An incomparable amount of money was being spent on operating the Penin Treatment Center.

Of course, it is money that will come back several times after the war.

The value of the yolk is not something that can be converted into hundreds of thousands of pennies.

But the current tight funding was a problem.

Eventually, Raymond had no choice but to open his hand to Healer Loan.

[The loan has been completed. This time too, it is a special treatment, ultra low-interest loan. Good luck, VIP customer~★☆✦!]

‘Do not use special characters, damn it!’

‘Because it gives me goosebumps!’

Raymond trembled as he recalled Lady Rose’s Odd Eye, whom he had seen earlier.

‘I remember meeting a snake. I never wanted to face it again.’

Raymond tried to get loans from other banks, but since the war was underway, the interest rates on all of them were exorbitant.

“As expected, I should make more contributions.”

Seeing Rose Young-ae’s creepy special text made his yearning to get more credits stronger.

The answer came so easily that Grand Duke Berard frowned.

“It seems like you are underestimating the Houston Kingdom too much.”

“I am not looking down on them. I know how strong the Houston Kingdom is.”

“But?”

“The strong momentum of the Houston Kingdom Army will be the reason for our great victory.”

It was not an easy word to understand.

Durak looked at the battlefield map.

“The Houston Kingdom Army is intoxicated with victory and is expanding the battlefield too much. That too in the courtyard of our country.”

“·...What does that mean?”

“It means that they are positioned perfectly for us to destory each of their troops individually.”

“......!”

Grand Duke Berard’s eyes became sharp.

He finally understood the meaning of Durak’s words.

“Still, don’t let your guard down. The enemy has a genius strategist.”

“Are you talking about Baron Penin?”

“Yes. He is comparable to you.”

Durak was silent.

He was well aware of Raymond.

‘Houston Kingdom’s greatest genius.’

That’s how Durak rated Raymond. He was vigilant.

Instead, he showed his strong spirit.

‘It’s interesting. I want to see how great a genius he is.’

Durak was the general who ruled the battlefield, even though he was now threatened with such threats.

Whenever he seesan outstanding enemy, he feels a sense of pride.

“I’d like to meet him once.”

“Yes, be sure to be careful when meeting him.”

Grand Duke Berard asked again.

“Then where are you going to target first?”

“Of course, to the Bioton Castle.” Durak replied as if he had nothing to worry about.

Bioton Castle was the front’s most important point.

It was necessary to occupy the place to easily defeat the Houston Kingdom’s army spread across the region.

“Bioton Castle? There are as many as 5,000 King Houston soldiers stationed there. It must be hard to recapture it easily.”

“It doesn’t matter how many people are defending, it’s ‘our’ castle.”

“Hmm?”

“We just need to join forces with the loyal citizens remaining within the Biotin Castle. If we hit them from the inside and the outside at the same time, they will collapse at once.”Durak said.

“As long as they do not perfectly capture the hearts of the people of the castle in that short time, it is as easy as flipping the palm of your hand to take it away. Then I will go to the court immediately.”

After finishing his speech, Durak turned his back on the stroke.

He didn’t want to talk to the abominable Grand Durak Berard any longer.

At that time, Grand Duke Berard said grimly. “If you bring Raymond’s neck, I’ll cure his children.”

“......!”

His eyes grew bigger.

“......Are you serious?”

“Yes. I swear by my name.”

Durak clenched his fist.

‘It is a live, you damn bastrad.’

That devil couldn’t keep that promise.

But Durak had no choice but to be deceived by the obvious lie.

He was a parent. He had no choice but to grab a hope like a mirage.

“......Wait, I’ll bring his neck.”

So durak led the army and headed to the Biotin Castle.

***

Raymond, who first arrived at the castle, was frantically treating wounded soldiers left and right.

“Hanson, insude fluids to the patient in bed 3!”

“Yes, Master!”

“And then bandage this patient next!”

As expected from the frontlines, patients flocked endlessly.

Raymond set up a healing treatment center in an abandoned mansion where the owner fled and treated patients who flocked to him.
