Doctor Player Chapter 392
“... ... .”
“Do not worry. Didn’t I promise you? When I become king, I will give the marquis a position of one but ten thousand.”
Marquis Macfield swallowed his saliva.
He betrayed Archduke Gideon after being seduced by Lawrence to give him the position of second-in-command in the kingdom.
So, in the middle, he manipulated the correspondence between Raymond and Archduke Gideon and succeeded in trapping it.
But I was anxious.
“Arduke Gideon is a monster. No trap, however terrible, can survive.”
“Don’t worry, that’s it. This trap is not an ordinary trap, so there is no chance that Archduke Gideon will survive.”
Lawrence was confident.
There was a reason.
‘Because what was installed in the villa isn’t just simple destruction magic.’
If it was simple destruction magic, I wouldn’t have been able to feel so relieved.
Because Archduke Gideon is a two-sword sword master who handles aura freely, he could not easily kill even the magic of the three-point arc mage.
However, ‘they’, the Kingdom of Gears, combined their ‘mystery’ with destruction magic.
It is a ‘secret technique’ using an ancient healing technique.
So, even Grand Duke Gideon could never survive.
‘The problem is rather with that guy, Raymond.’
Lawrence narrowed his eyes.
Raymond! Raymond!
Just thinking about the name made my teeth clench.
‘Damn it.’
Raymond Nome has solved countless of their ‘mysteries’ so far. So I didn’t know if I could solve it this time either.
But Lawrence shook his head.
‘It won’t work this time. Because he will be swept away by destructive magic and die.’
So far, they have refrained from directly hurting Raymond when they play tricks.
It was because I was worried that if I used the wrong hand on a guy who was getting everyone’s attention, things would escalate.
Instead, I used ‘secret’.
Poisoning or spreading contagious diseases were mainly used.
‘But it was a mistake. To get rid of him, I had to use these physical methods from the beginning. Mysteries don’t work on him.’
esoteric.
It refers to a means of applying ancient healing techniques.
However, after realizing that no esoteric technique would work on Raymond, this time he used physical destruction magic.
‘No matter how ingenious a wizard he is, he is still an immature being. There’s no way they can survive the destructive magic installed by the 3-line arc mage. This time is the end for you.’
‘Rod’ Lawrence smiled softly.
The beautiful city of water, Rapentel, was visible beyond the palace.
It was his now.

“Master!”
“majesty!”
“Meow!”
A buzzing sound rang out.
Raymond blinked blankly.
The situation was not understood.
Destruction magic must have exploded... ... When I opened my eyes, Elmud and Mien were in front of me.
‘What is it? Why did those sweet potatoes die? Did they all die together?’
But no matter how I looked at it, it didn’t look like heaven.
It was a secret hideout cave prepared in advance near the villa!
‘Did I buy it?’
It seemed so!
‘how? How did you come here?’
Raymond blinked his eyes in complete incomprehension.
But I felt something warm wrapped around my body, so I turned my head and stiffened.
It was Christine.
She held him tight with trembling hands.
“... ... .”
“... ... .”
“... ... .”
Her eyes were tightly closed and she didn’t intend to let go of Raymond, as if she hadn’t grasped the situation yet.
“I... ... Princess?”
Elmud cautiously called Christine.
“... ... Now that you are a patient, forget about our relationship for now.”
“... ... .”
Archduke Gideon looked at Raymond in disbelief.
Then, perhaps realizing that Raymond was serious, he gritted his teeth.
“why... ... you are... ... ? Don’t you know that I hold a grudge against you?”
Resentment.
Actually, it wasn’t that kind of feeling.
Archduke Gideon has great enmity towards Raymond.
To be precise, he has a fierce hatred for the Peninsula royal family to which Raymond belongs.
because of resentment
Grand Duke Gideon belonged to a collateral royal family, and his family died when he was caught up in a false accusation of treason from the royal family.
And after a difficult childhood, he became a war hero and built his current power.
His goal is the downfall of the Peninsula royal family, which led to the downfall of his own family!
However, after gaining strength, the Peninsula royal family was already leaning forward.
It is after the enemy has already fallen.
I was about to cut off the head of the current king, Peian VII, but I was spending empty days without any meaning to kill him, who was already dying like a scarecrow.
I met Raymond.
It shines more than anyone else and has no shortage of being the target of revenge.
‘If I destroy that brilliant one, my revenge will be enough.’
Archduke Gideon intended to destroy Raymond with such a mind.
But are you trying to save yourself?
Archduke Gideon did not understand Raymond.
“Stop putting it away. I don’t want any help from you.”
“... ... .”
Raymond kept his mouth shut.
He sensed that this moment was an important turning point in his relationship with Grand Duke Gideon.
‘I have to make Archduke Gideon into a hukou.’
It’s an opportunity that will never come again.
Hogu... ... If not until now, at least he had to let go of his hostility toward himself.
“Of course, I guess that you, Archduke, don’t think well of me.”
“... ... .”
“but... ... .”
For a moment, Raymond was speechless.
‘... ... How can I convince you? I don’t think it’s going to work even if I say the words in my mouth.’
Raymond glanced at Archduke Gideon’s face.
He was gritting his teeth as if he was in great pain from his injury, but even in the midst of that, he was still glaring at Raymond.
Raymond, who ate a lot of hukou, had a hunch.
Archduke Gideon is not just a pet that can be eaten with sugar coating!
‘... ... Flashy rhetoric would have the opposite effect.’
Raymond decided to get rid of pretentious words about being for the people and go out honestly.
“... ... Frankly, I don’t want to fight you.”
“You don’t want to fight?”
“Yeah, there’s nothing to gain from fighting. If we fight, we will only hurt each other, so I want to have a positive relationship as much as possible.”
It was the truth.
Raymond’s only wish is to make money!
To do so, he wanted to live peacefully with Grand Duke Gideon.
“... ... .”
Archduke Gideon bit his lip and glared at Raymond.
It was a face that did not agree with Raymond’s words.
Archduke Gideon must have misunderstood Raymond’s proposal to cooperate for the sake of the people.
“Your Highness is too idealistic.”
‘... ... It’s not ideal, it’s realistic.’
Raymond muttered timidly to himself, frightened by Gideon’s bright eyes.
“Do you think it will be possible for Your Highness and I to make peace?”
It was when Grand Duke Gideon growled like that.
Suddenly, a strange thing happened!
“Keuuugh!”
Archduke Gideon suddenly grabbed his right leg and screamed.
“grandee? Wait a minute!”
Raymond hurriedly inspected Archduke Gideon’s legs and was startled.
‘This?’
Raymond’s complexion turned white.
