Chapter 275

#Doctor Player #275

‘Curse of Grief This is a symptom caused by disruption of the endocrine system.’

endocrine system.

Specifically, it was clear that the symptoms caused by a problem with the hormonal system.

There was reason to think so.

‘Large breasts in stillborn men with increased body hair. These are all symptoms that appear when there is a problem with the sex hormone system.’

So Raymond made a clear diagnosis.

The problem was the cause.

‘Why is there a problem with the sex hormone system?’

A similar thing had happened in the Rafal region the other day.

At that time, there was a problem with the magic stone mine, and a large amount of endocrine disrupting substances were released, but there was no such magic stone mine in the Loktar region.

‘Is it the aftermath of the black magic used by the black darkness?’

It seemed that the conclusion would come only after the epidemiological investigation was completed.

‘Curse of madness. That’s another matter.’

Raymond’s face grew serious when he recalled the conditions of the patients who were cursed with madness. It wasn’t an endocrine problem, it was a completely different problem.

A diagnosis came to mind, but I couldn’t easily say it.

‘... ... If the curse of madness is caused by the reason I think it is, then this is not normal.’

Raymond swallowed.

Of course, it wasn’t certain yet.

This, too, seemed to come to a clear conclusion only after the investigation was completed.

‘The problem is that people seem to be hiding something.’

Raymond tapped the table.

Both the Curse of Grief and the Curse of Madness.

All of the patients seemed to be hiding something.

‘I have to figure that out.’

Raymond handed out missions to his disciples.

“Princess Jude, please interview patients suffering from the curse of grief. If there is anything people are hiding, please find out.”

‘The apprentice Crown Princess will take good care of this.’

Raymond recognized Crown Princess Jude’s talent.

She had a dedication and warmth for others. It was the quality of a saint.

People opened their hearts to her easily.

People who were hiding something were more likely to tell her the truth.

Next was Myen.

“Mien, watch over those suffering from the curse of madness.”

– Surveillance?

Mian tilted her head.

Are you monitoring the patient? It was a word that didn’t fit.

But Raymond was adamant.

If the curse of madness is what he guesses right, the patients will surely do something suspicious.

I had to capture that.

“Survey them and tell me immediately if they show any suspicious movements.”

-Yes, got it!

The rest of the disciples were asked to conduct other epidemiological investigations.

Several days passed after that.

Maran, the representative of the healing corps, was in despair.

‘I can’t solve it.’

No matter how much heels were used, no one got better.

‘What do we do? It must be resolved.’

Maran bit his lip hard.

Vermont had already spread great rumors that the healing corps would solve the curse.

In such a situation, if you raise your hands, there is no such thing as disgrace.

It will leave a big stain on his career.

‘no. Then my advance into the center will go through the water.’

All high-level healers in the Katal Kingdom dream of becoming a central political healer with power after building their careers.

It was the same with Maran, and he had to solve this problem.

“There is only one way to do this. We have no choice but to ‘contain’ the cursed.”

Maran muttered terrifyingly.

The ‘quarantine’ he was talking about now had a different meaning.

To be precise, it was ‘exile’.

Those who are sick are banished to distant uninhabited islands and remote areas where people cannot come and go.

It wasn’t just strong monsters like Dyurahan.

Even lower-intermediate undead were transplanted into smaller pieces, and the undead dropped fragments of the magic stone on the ground whenever they died.

“As a result, countless magic stones remained throughout the Loktar region, and the people here took care of them like treasure.”

That was the beginning of the tragedy.

As can be seen in the case of the Lafalde region, the contaminated magic crystals had a very harmful effect on the human body.

In this case, the sex hormone system was disrupted.

“But isn’t that just a guess? How do you prove that... ... .”

Raymond cut off his words and chined.

Of course, the evidence to prove it was prepared.

“Bring what Len prepared.”

Ren brought a large iron spear.

“monster? what?”

It was a small bipedal monster.

Looking closely, it was a man’s body, but his chest was protruding!

“It is a monster that possesses contaminated magic stones.”

Raymond explained.

“It’s not just the villagers who got the magic stones. Monsters with intelligence also took magic stones. And as a result, I suffered the same symptoms.”

“Oh how... ... .”

Maran stuttered.

The magic stone was the cause.

It was unimaginable.

“Then why the curse of madness? Is that because of the magic stones?”

It was a voice that I couldn’t accept.

Raymond gave a cold gaze for a moment before opening his mouth.

“Curse of madness has nothing to do with magic stones. That’s a different matter.”

“then?”

“It’s because of one or a blade of grass.”

one or

It’s a name I’ve heard somewhere.

Soon, Maran made a shocked face.

“Can you stand?”

“you’re right.”

Raymond sighed.

“They are addicted to drugs.”

one or a blade of grass.

It was a hallucinogenic grass used as a raw material for drugs.

* * *

‘There is one or a blade of grass in the Loktar region.’

At first, Raymond made a face of disbelief when he discovered the identity of the Curse of Madness.

The Hana Grass Blade was a hallucinogenic herb that grew mostly in the Free Cities Confederation.

But, oddly enough, it was found in the Loktar region.

What’s even more shocking is that it’s not spreading little by little and sporadically.

were cultivated in large quantities.

‘Even in the forbidden area proclaimed by the black darkness.’

The Black Darkness declared a ban on a wide area deep in the Loktar region.

The people of Loktar feared the black darkness and did not even venture into the ban.

However, after the defeat of the black darkness, those with curiosity went in and found one or a blade of grass.

‘At first, they say they ate because of hunger. Then I gradually became addicted and completely lost my mind.’

This was the end of the curse of madness.

‘I can’t believe the black darkness was cultivating a single blade of grass. Was he secretly doing business with someone?’

Raymond thought darkly.

drug dealing.

It was terrible.

But it was a possibility that could not be ignored.

I wouldn’t have cultivated such a terrible thing for nothing.

‘Ugh, drugs.’

The Houston kingdom was far from drugs.

However, in the central part of the continent, these drugs were often secretly circulated, which was a social nuisance.

‘I’ll leave this to Crown Princess Jude later.’

he is a stranger

It was right to leave it to the people of the Catal Kingdom to find out the route of the drug that was circulated by the black darkness.

Anyway, now that the cause has been identified, it is time to treat the patient.
