Chapter 154
[The ‘True Countermeasure is revealed!]
Raymond opened his eyes wide.
Special feature of the truth.
This was a new effect added as the skill level of the truth-handling method increased to C grade.
‘What is the special move?’
A message came to mind as if answering.
[Analyze your opponents’ patterns!]
[The opponents’ pattern is strong, weak, weak, ‘the true pattern of a fool who uses force’!]
[Depending on the analysis results, the most suitable special technique for the opponent will be activated!]
[The special technique of the true countermeasures, ‘Making a Fool’ is revealed!]
‘Making a fool?’
As soon as that message came to mind, a plan to deal with his opponents suddenly appeared in Raymond’s mind.
‘If you think about it, this isn’t necessarily a bad situation. It’s just a little annoying.’
Raymond clenched his fist.
‘Let’s take this opportunity to straighten these two out!’
As expected, this is a good way to deal with the situation.
The most appropriate solution for the current situation has come to mind!
Raymond spoke to the Duke Rair first.
“Let me be clear, I have no intention of learning swordsmanship right now. I’m a healer. I want to focus on treating patients.”
“But.......”
The Duke Raif showed no intention of backing down.
Oh, he was a really stuffy and incommunicative man.
That’s the truth!
Raymond decided to treat the truth as the truth.
‘Sweaty swordsmanship in my ass. I’ll tear you to pieces.’
“Treating my patients is more important than anything else. If you wish to teach me swordsmanship, Your Majesty, I will need your consideration.”
“Consideration is quite possible!”
“Can you really take care of me?”
“Of course. Of course. Just tell me. I’ll listen to anything.”
Raymond secretly cheered as Duke Raif became impatient.
The appearance of the Duke seemed to be shouting, ‘I’m a fool!’
‘No matter how I refuse, that diehard won’t back down easily. So let’s change the method. Let’s make him a complete fool.’
“Very well. I will follow your teachings, Duke.”
“Really?”
“Instead, I will only take classes during my spare time after treating patients.”
“Of course I can understand that. You are a healer after all...”
“So...if you look at my schedule, I can get it once a month for about 2 hours.”
The Duke Raif was speechless.
2 hours a month?
“That.......”
“I have so many patients. I treat patients while sleeping less than 3 hours a day, so I don’t think I can sleep lesser than that. Honestly, 2 hours a month is tight, so I might have to cut it down even more.”
This statement was not a lie.
Since the students’ skills were still lacking, all the important patients were Raymond’s responsibility, so there were many days when he couldn’t even sleep properly.
Raymond made a pitiful face.
“I guess it’s going to be this difficult? Then I guess I can never learn the sword...”
The Duke Raif reluctantly agreed to eat mustard while crying.
Because he is thorough now.
“No, I will do it!”
Raymond looked very grateful.
“There is a second condition.”
“What is it?”
“I will only take theory classes. I will not do any practical training.”
‘Sweaty training is absolutely out of the question!’
He fell for Raymond’s bait.
‘Yes, why do you need another teacher? This body is your teacher. Now that it’s like this, you won’t even think about other teachers. I will make you look only to me.’
The Duke Raif was not a generous man without greed.
He wanted to leave his name in the history of swordsmanship as the sole teacher of Raymond, who would become a great knight.
Well then, there is only one way.
As Raymond just said, if he teaches him perfectly and shows him the utmost kindness, he won’t need any other teachers.
Let Raymond just look at you!
Raymond, sensing the determination of the Duke, smiled inwardly.
‘Good. Now the Duke Raif will treat me with all his heart and soul.’
Raymond, who had made such a terrifying life plan his fool, looked around.
It was time to make the second household.
“Baron, I think you should think about it again... ... Your talent is in magic...”
Shameron looked very sorry.
Raymond’s attitude to him was somewhat different from when he was talking to the Duke Raid.
He said it in a crooked way. “To be honest, I don’t really like the Magic Tower people that much.”
“Why?”
“You’ve been putting a lot of pressure on me lately, haven’t you?”
“...”
It was true.
Every time Raymond requested medical magic tools, the Magic Tower would take full advantage of his position and present him with an expensive bill for all sorts of reasons.
Raymond snorted.
‘You’ve been putting all these burdens on me, and now you’re asking me to be your disciple? That’s ridiculous. Now that I’m the boss, you should be prepared to get ripped off.’
Shameron broke out in a cold sweat.
“That, that’s a bit of a misunderstanding...”
“A misunderstanding? According to the bill, the final payer is Wizard Shameron.”
“...”
Shameron kept her mouth shut.
That was actually true.
When Raymond kept ordering strange magic tools, he thought he was some kind of fool and ordered them to put a lot of effort into making him look like a fool.
“That, that’s for business...but if the Baron becomes part of the Magic Tower family, it’ll be a different story.”
“How?”
“You could buy magic tools at a 20% discount from the regular price with a special discount for Magic Tower employees...”
Raymond frowned.
‘Why are you guys being like this? Are you kidding me?’
“I listened to your input well. Well, that’s all for now.”
“Ah, ah! That’s the case for a normal wizard, but Baron Penin is a pillar of the magic tower, so an additional 30% discount...!”
“Do you have anything else to say?”
Raymond turned away, and Shameron grabbed his arm urgently.
“50%! How about 50%? It’s the special discount price from the Magic tower branch manager!”
“Hmm.”
“For reference, even wizard-level magicians are discounted only by 30-40%. Since the cost is so high, discounts of over 50% are only available to Archmages and above.”
Raymond nodded with a troubled look on his face.
‘I guess this level of discount is okay. I’ll be buying a lot of items from the Magic Tower in the future.’
In order to implement modern medical tools here, it was essential to purchase the magic tools of the Magic Tower.
50% was a fairly satisfactory discount rate.
“Then please register me as a wizard of the Magic Tower. Oh, and am I qualified to register as a wizard?”
“Of course you can handle standard-level magic freely! I will register you as a ‘normal wizard’ right now!”
So Raymond officially registered as a wizard and became a member of the Magic Tower.
“Then you have to enroll in the class curriculum right now!”
Raymond said clearly to the excited Shameron. “I have to attend a class?”
“...yes?”
“I am better suited to self-study.”
Shameron opened and then closed his mouth.
‘What do you mean?’ was the look on his face.
