Chapter 389
Doctor Player Chapter 389
‘I don’t know if a saint of brilliance is lacking, but he’s a person who doesn’t lack even if he’s the greatest saint in the Crusader Empire.’
In other words, this is like a battle between a giant and an old man, a fight that cannot be won even if you struggle to win.
The chances of him ascending the throne were extremely slim. Unless a miracle happens.
Thinking that far, Raymond made a decision.
This is an ‘opportunity’ not to be missed!
He nodded his head with a serious face.
“All right. I am lacking in body, but I will try my best.”
“Really?”
Princess Fione widened her eyes and bowed her head to Raymond.
“thank you. thank you!”
It wasn’t just empty words, it was a genuinely thrilled voice.
In fact, Pione was very nervous when she brought up the story.
‘Why do you think you hate it so much?’
Originally, Phione assumed that Raymond would accept the offer.
why?
Raymond is such a great man.
A saint so noble as to be foolish to think only of others.
However, when I brought up the story, it seemed that I had heard a very unpleasant story.
– Why am I doing such a troublesome thing?
With this expression, Fione almost doubted Raymond again.
However, her thoughts were just a hasty misunderstanding.
Raymond’s sublimity was real.
However, Raymond told an unexpected story.
“There is one condition.”
“What is it?”
“I want to move according to my will before the election period for the throne. Whatever I do, please trust me.”
period of election to the throne.
It refers to the period from when the previous emperor stepped down until the next emperor is decided.
In the meantime, those elected as candidates will stay in the ‘Ecliptic’ and prove that they are suitable for the throne.
It had some similarities with the election campaigns conducted by the Free Cities Association.
‘I wonder if it’s an election campaign in the style of the Crusader Empire?’
The only difference is that while the Free Cities Alliance campaigns for citizens, the Crusader Empire campaigns for key figures in each country.
It could also be called a political and diplomatic election campaign.
Of course, Raymond had no intention of doing that.
‘Why do I do such a bother? I have no intention of ascending to the throne anyway.’
So what is Raymond going to do?
‘I have to earn money to go to the imperial city.’
ecliptic!
It is truly the center of the Crusader Federation Empire.
It could be said that if the Empire was conquered (?) following the Peninsula Kingdom, the healing system of the Crusader Empire would fall completely into Raymond’s hands.
‘Especially if you go as a candidate for the throne, it will be easy to meet many important people. I should use this opportunity to build up a lot of personal connections and build a foundation to make money.’
The more I thought about it, the worse it seemed.
Because the emperor wanted to go anyway.
Originally, his goal in life is to become the best healer on the continent.
To be more precise, his goal in life is to become the richest person on the continent using medicine.
The Peninsula Kingdom is an important stopover on the way to that goal.
The ecliptic is also the final destination.
‘If I conquer the ecliptic, I can say that most of my dreams come true!’
Of course, some may have doubts about Raymond’s idea.
Isn’t it possible to earn enough money in the Peninsula Kingdom?
It was. Things are going well in the Free Cities Alliance, and we’ve laid the groundwork for that.
Sales of anti-wrinkle products for hair loss treatment.
And even free trade rights.
Now all he has to do is make money.
‘But not enough.’
Raymond thought greedily like a hungry ghost.
‘I’m going to wipe out all the money on the continent. I can’t be satisfied with just this much.’
Yes, his goal was to be the richest person on the continent.
… … It could be said that the goal is high for the subject of a poor man who is always full of debt, but the dream in his heart has always been ambitious.
So he had no intention of stopping in the Peninsula Kingdom.
even higher.
I was thinking of flying to the ecliptic.
That’s why he will become the best healer (rich man) on the continent.
‘Realistically, it will be difficult for me to conquer the Iron Empire. Even if only the imperial city is conquered with medicine, it can be said that most of the goals in life have been achieved.’
The problem is that conquering the ecliptic is not an easy task.
First of all, it was the garden of the three rivers, so the people of the other ten countries, even high-ranking nobles and royal families, could not show their spirit.
However, with the support of Saint Rosette Kingdom, if he advances to the imperial capital as a candidate for the throne, all of those problems will be gone.
‘Because I will be able to utilize the personal connections of Saint Rosette Kingdom, I can put the ecliptic in my hands (?) in a much more advantageous environment!’
However, Raymond had one thing on his mind.
It was the position of the Kingdom of Saint Rosette.
‘Well, he must have believed in me and supported me as a candidate, but am I thinking too much of myself?’
But he soon shook his head.
In the end, Saint Rosette Kingdom also came to him because they had no candidates to present.
In other words, Saint Rosette Kingdom was also trying to use Raymond for their own benefit, and Raymond was just taking his share wisely.
And above all else, how could it be said that it was Raymond’s responsibility to be eliminated from the election?
It’s just a matter of course.
After organizing his thoughts, Raymond said firmly.
“Then please take care of me.”
Princess Fione nodded in emotion.
“Your prince!”
That’s how the Crusader Federation Empire… … No, a story that would shake the continent was concluded.
* * *
Princess Pione hurriedly returned to St. Rosette Kingdom.
It is about to begin the process of raising Raymond as a candidate for the throne.
‘It will take time. First of all, the current emperor hasn’t stepped down yet.’
The current emperor of the Crusader Empire was Catherine.
As a member of the royal family of the Kingdom of Saint Rosette, a large-scale corruption case was caught and a dishonorable resignation is scheduled.
‘I think the dominant theory is that the corruption case was also a conspiracy of the Kingdom of Gears.’
Anyway, there was no need for Raymond to care about the complicated political situation of the imperial capital.
The resignation process is underway, so I will be stepping down in two or three months.
The full-fledged election of the emperor began then.
‘Within that, I have to organize my affairs in the Peninsula Kingdom.’
Raymond thought.
There were a lot of things to do, such as preparing for actual profit realization through full-fledged hair loss treatment distribution and free trade rights.
And the most important thing is to establish the next crown prince.
‘I have to decide who will inherit the throne instead of me.’
First of all, he was nominated for the throne, but the result was unconditional elimination.
then?
Then again people might try to make Raymond king.
So, to prevent that from happening, he had to decide the issue of the next throne in advance.
‘The crown prince has already been decided, but then he won’t be able to make me the crown prince again.’
Raymond let out a laugh.
It was a perfect plan no matter how you think about it.
‘But who should I decide as a candidate for the throne?’
Raymond was troubled.
In fact, he didn’t really care who ascended the throne other than himself.
Honestly, if I could throw it at anyone, I wanted to throw it.
‘The problem is Grand Duke Gideon.’
Raymond frowned.
‘Whoever you choose as the crown prince, you have to talk well with Grand Duke Gideon.’
Currently, the most powerful person in the Peninsula Kingdom is Grand Duke Gideon.
Raymond also suddenly became a powerful force, but he fell one step short of Grand Duke Gideon.
‘But now it’s not to the extent of being pushed back like in the past. Fortunately, it’s enough to roughly balance the forces.’
Raymond’s blueprint for the Peninsula Kingdom was like this.
First of all, Archduke Gideon also appoints a person who agrees as the next crown prince.
And Raymond is supporting the crown prince.
Being a candidate for the throne did not mean that the foundation Raymond had built in the Peninsula Kingdom would disappear.
On the contrary, Raymond would hold onto the foundation he had built for the Peninsula Kingdom.
why?
Because I have to use that foundation to make money in the Peninsula Kingdom.
Anyway, whoever decides to be the new king, Raymond will support that person.
Then, the new king and Grand Duke Gideon will balance the forces and the political situation of the Peninsula Kingdom will naturally stabilize.
‘If that’s the case, I’ll be able to make money in the Peninsula Kingdom in a stable way. The Peninsula Kingdom will be the goose that lays my cash cow’s golden eggs!’
It was clear that if he conquered the ecliptic as well, Raymond would really become the richest person on the continent.
It’s a dream come true!
He was happy just by imagining it. Raymond made an ecstatic face.
‘To do that, I need to finish the conversation with Grand Duke Gideon first. Grand Duke Gideon won’t be bad for me to be a candidate for the throne, so I won’t object.’
Raymond sat down and picked up a pen.
With the utmost sincerity, he intended to ask Archduke Gideon for a secret meeting.
But just as I was about to write the letter, something unexpected happened.
[Meow.]
Mien came in through the window and had a letter in her mouth!
[A letter has arrived.]
“A letter?”
[Yes, Prince. It was a secret letter from a person from the Peninsula Kingdom to Your Highness.]
Raymond made a puzzled face.
There were no words written on the envelope of the letter.
I tilted my head and checked the contents inside, but there was a surprising phrase written on it.
[I request a private meeting with Your Highness.
-Gideon.]
* * *
Archduke Gideon requested a meeting first!
Raymond wondered.
‘Why is Archduke Gideon?’
Hey Raymond, I was going to meet Archduke Gideon because I had regrets, but as Archduke Gideon, there must be no reason to meet Raymond?
But I soon found out the answer.
Letters were sent to Raymond.
[Dear Great Raymond. – Viscount Khadmun.]
[To Your Greatness Raymond. -Baron Locron.]
Raymond was surprised to see the letters.
It was a letter from those who followed Gideon!
When I looked at the letter, I was surprised to find that this was written.
[I am deeply impressed by Your Highness’s greatness. I would like to have a deep discussion with Your Highness about the future.]
[I would like to apologize for the rudeness in the past. Please give me your precious time.]
Surprisingly, it was a letter requesting reconciliation with Raymond!
It was during the Great Depression of Gideon.
‘why?’
Christine said why.
“Probably because of what Master has done this time.”
Christine said as if it were obvious.
“Now, to trade with the Free Cities Alliance, we have to look after the Master.”
