Chapter 394
Doctor Player Chapter 394
The Relief Knights and the accompanying wizards used water magic to catch some of the flames.
The party squeezed through the gap and climbed onto Shutphone and Dr. Griffon.
[Come on, good man! Shutter phone is hot!]
“Yes, let’s go!”
[Clarara! beef! Beef!]
[Beef! Beef!]
Shutphone and the other Dr. Griffons shouted beef slogans (?) to gain strength and were able to escape the flames and ascend into the sky.
“… … I am alive.”
Christine sighed.
Raymond also wiped away his liver.
The flames were terrifyingly burning beneath the griffons.
It was close.
Then an unexpected voice was heard.
“… … thank you.”
“… … !”
It was Prince Gideon!
He was averting his gaze in embarrassment.
“grandee?”
“… … Being grateful is just saying that you are grateful. Don’t get me wrong. You don’t mean to accept Your Highness on this Gideon’s side.”
Raymond felt disappointed at that statement.
For whatever reason, Archduke Gideon was still hostile to Raymond.
But Grand Duke Gideon said something unexpected.
“instead… … How about an alliance?”
“… … Allies?”
Archduke Gideon shone coldly.
“Yes, because we have to tear the bastards to death. How about forming an alliance to exterminate them?”
Raymond nodded.
It was an offer with no reason to refuse.
‘I have to catch them, especially ‘Rod’.’
I definitely found out about this.
They and Raymond couldn’t coexist.
Raymond wasn’t interested in them, but they weren’t.
They were trying to kill him.
So Raymond could no longer be a bystander.
‘Damn it. I’m a petit bourgeois who only wants to make money, so why are you touching me when I’m still?’
Raymond was angry.
‘Now that it’s like this, I can’t help it. You have to exterminate them to live a happy super-rich life.’
Especially loaded!
I had to catch him.
‘The problem is the method.’
Then Archduke Gideon spoke.
“Let’s go straight to the capital. We’ll have to catch that damn Macfield first.”
Marquis Macfield.
He was Gideon’s closest friend, but he betrayed him this time.
But Raymond shook his head.
“It seems unwise to go to the capital right now. Let’s take some time.”
“Are you trying to pass the time?”
“Let’s pretend to be dead.”
Archduke Gideon rolled his eyes in amazement.
said Raymond, clenching his fists.
“When news of our death spreads, the true mastermind will come out. Let’s catch them then.”
Raymond thought it was no coincidence that they were targeting Prince Gideon and himself at the same time.
It must have been an attempt to get rid of both of them at once.
The words Rina said passed through my mind.
‘There is a high possibility that Rod is one of the influential people in the Peninsula Kingdom.’
So Raina and Raymond guessed that one of the Archduke Gideon and the Marquis Rodrigo would be Lord.
But it was neither.
So, who is Lord?
‘The person who will benefit the most if I and Grand Duke Gideon are gone.’
In an instant, a figure passed Raymond’s head.
You will soon find out.
* * *
The news of Raymond’s accident shocked the continent.
From the Peninsula Kingdom to the Houston Kingdom, the Drowton Kingdom, the Katal Kingdom, and the Free City Alliance.
I was stunned by the news of Raymond’s accident.
“No nonsense! He is the light from heaven!”
“that’s right! He could never have died!”
Everyone denied Raymond’s death.
Who is Raymond?
I didn’t accept his death, saying that it could never happen.
“You must be alive!”
“that’s right! What kind of person is he! Heaven would not have left him alone!”
In the midst of that, there was a new figure who stood out.
It was Lawrence who was behind this incident.
Of course, he didn’t look clumsy.
Thoroughly pretended to be for Raymond.
“Raymond can’t be dead! Make a more thorough search!”
So was the Marquis of Macfield.
“Prince Gideon will be alive! Everyone, don’t give up hope!”
But after searching, nothing was found.
Lawrence began to reveal his true colors little by little.
He started referring to Raymond’s death.
“I really hate to admit it, but I think the time has come to accept it. It seems unlikely that Raymond is still alive.”
Lawrence said to Peian VII with hateful teary eyes.
“In order to stabilize the unstable situation as soon as possible, we must appoint a new crown prince.”
new crown prince.
I mean Lawrence himself.
In this situation where Archduke Gideon and Raymond disappeared at once, Lawrence was the only one who would become crown prince.
“We have to appoint the crown prince quickly so that we can pay off Raymond’s enemies too.”
Raymond’s enemy.
Lawrence announced that the cult behind this incident was the ‘Followers of Destruction’, a cult that always caused incidents.
It wasn’t entirely false.
Followers of Destruction are Lawrence’s subordinates.
To be precise, it was an organization created with the help of the Gears Kingdom.
This time, they borrowed the hands of the Followers of Destruction to set a trap so that their activities would not be discovered.
“Your Highness, please make a decision.”
Lawrence said with a sad face.
King Peian VII asked with a stiff face like a corpse.
“really… … Raymond… … Is the child dead?”
“It’s hard to believe, but it seems.”
“no… … no.”
Peian VII strongly shook his head.
“It can’t be. never. There’s no way the child died like that.”
“majesty.”
Lawrence gave a sad look.
“I know the sadness, but now is the time to admit reality. Raymond is obviously dead… … .”
“How can you be so sure of that?”
“… … yes?”
Lawrence was taken aback.
Something was wrong with Peian VII’s voice.
It wasn’t his usual dull voice.
And it wasn’t just a mournful voice either.
It was a voice full of strength, as if it were before the fall of the royal family in the past.
“I asked how you were sure of that fact.”
“… … majesty?”
Lawrence backed away with some uneasiness.
Feian VII’s emerald eyes sparkled like they were on fire.
“Did you, by any chance, lead this matter?”
Lawrence’s heart sank.
‘what? Why are you suddenly talking like that?’
Lawrence shook his head vigorously and raised his voice as if angry.
“Oh no, how can you say that? You know how much I think of Raymond!”
“okay?”
Peian VII made a twisted face.
“Then how are you going to explain this? Bring him!”
“… … !”
Then the knights dragged a person.
Lawrence’s eyes widened.
‘no?’
It was the Marquis of Macfield!
It was a terrible look, perhaps after suffering a lot already!
“What is this… … ?”
Sensing that something was wrong, Lawrence’s complexion turned white.
“I trusted you too. When I was contacted by that kid, Raymond, I couldn’t believe it easily.”
Communication?
Raymond is dead, so what contact?
“that is… … what… … ?”
An eerie speculation that comes to mind in an instant.
‘no way?’
The moment Lawrence’s eyes widen.
A voice that should never be heard has been heard!
“It’s over, Mr. Lawrence.”
“… … !”
When I turned my head, a figure appeared.
Although he was a bright young man, Lawrence couldn’t help but put on an expression as if he had met a reaper.
“ray… … Mond!”
“yes.”
Raymond cast a cold gaze.
“It is over now. Lawrence. no… … .”
A voice like a referee fell on Lawrence’s ears.
“road.”
* * *
Load.
The words that came out of Raymond’s mouth made Lawrence look like a corpse.
“That is… … What are you saying? Are you Rod?”
“Even pretense is useless. That’s after you’ve got all the evidence. Come in!”
Raymond did not appear alone.
Archduke Gideon appeared on crutches with one leg amputated.
And there was Raina of the Mage Tower.
“Hoho, you finally caught the tail. I wondered what kind of cockroach it was.”
Raina’s eyes shone terrifyingly.
“I couldn’t believe that the prestigious royal family of the Peninsula Kingdom was the shadow of what had happened.”
Lawrence shook his head hastily.
“I don’t know what the hell you are talking about. What kind of rudeness is this?”
“suddenly? Despite?”
The noble lady of red blood, Rina, laughed.
“Our mage tower has already secured all the evidence that you are the hidden leader of the Followers of Destruction.”
“… … what what?”
After they fake their deaths.
Seeing Lawrence appear in the foreground, Raymond had a hunch.
That Lord was Lawrence.
However, Raymond kept faking death to induce Lawrence off guard.
Then, he contacted the Mage Tower and thoroughly investigated Lawrence’s back, and eventually succeeded in securing evidence that he was related to the followers of destruction!
‘It was easier than I thought.’
If the evidence had not been obtained, the situation would have been complicated, but unexpectedly things worked out.
Lawrence, who thought he had accomplished the first great feat, was caught off guard.
Second, it was thanks to thorough surveillance by pointing out Lawrence.
If I hadn’t identified a suspect, I would have guessed the culprit, so I was able to magically mobilize all my abilities to keep a very close watch.
Lawrence could not imagine that the Mage Tower was closely monitoring him and contacted the remnants of the Followers of Destruction.
Laina and the Mage Tower magically traced the traces of Lawrence’s contact and succeeded in capturing the remnants of the Followers of Perdition, and secured testimony and evidence that Lawrence was the hidden leader of the Followers of Perdition.
During the process, the appearance of Raina was not lacking in the nickname of the red-blooded lady, so Raymond brushed away his liver.
“The Marquis Macfield has already confessed all his sins. You are done.”
Raymond spoke sternly in a strong voice, befitting the rule of strength and weakness.
