To Hell with Being a Saint, I'm a Doctor

Chapter 416

episode 416 darkness that doesn’t even matter if you chew on it (1)

rey said while staring at the elves.

“the altar is complete with this. since drain magic is engraved on the magic circle, you won’t have to keep injecting mana every 50 years like the previous altar. come see what hasn’t happened to the altar at least once a year. it’s okay to check once or twice. no, just giving the feeling that the elves are checking the altar from time to time is successful.”

heprion asked at his words.

“it is not difficult. is there any reason for that?”

reason? of course there is.

ray grinned.

“this happened because some son of a bitch touched an altar that was in good shape. seeing that the elves secretly infiltrated this most closely guarded place in their village and even touched the altar, it must not have been a mistake. besides, if it had been destroyed to this extent, i would have intended to turn the altar into a mess from the beginning.”

“ugh. i’m not sure if 1 year is enough. if darkness really exists, isn’t it something that might happen within a year?”

he nodded at heprion’s words.

“that’s right. the altar could be destroyed again within a week, let alone a year. maybe he’ll come to ruin the altar on the day we’re away.”

it’s easy to say like it’s someone else’s business.

the moment serien was about to say something to him.

ray continued.

“so, everyone, leave your seat. it doesn’t matter if you hold a banquet with elven wine in the elven village where each of them went back to their village. the altar work is also finished, so everyone can go back and relieve their fatigue.”

“then who guards the altar?”

at hans’ concerned question, ray grinned sinisterly.

“i will watch over you. he’s the one who made us suffer so much. if you get caught, you have to turn them into very anti-villains. hehehe.”

he was a rare man who never forgot his grudge even if he forgot his kindness.

if you get caught, i’ll give you a lot of cuteness in return.

seeing his expression, the elves backtracked.

sunbok nodded and accepted ray’s words.

– there’s nothing good about keeping them alive. kill him after canning the rear brother.

“it should be. i’m going to chew the intestines carefully.”

he was so full of miasma that one wondered if he was a saint.

even so, because the altar was destroyed, ray enjoyed the full course of all kinds of hardships.

can’t you just enjoy this fun entertainment yourself?

anyone is good, so just take it.

his expression said so.

aira, full of concern, said with a slight tilt of her head.

“shouldn’t you rest a little? your physical condition is not normal because you continue to overdo it. i think it would be better to recuperate for a few days.”

ray looked down at his body.

certainly.

my fingertips had been trembling ever since.

my eyelids became heavy to the limit, making my blurry vision even narrower, and my stomach, which had not eaten anything, clamored for food.

but revenge is sweeter than any rest.

right now, rather than wanting to rest, all i could think about was cutting off those who got caught.

“i’m fine.”

“but...”

“i can take a break anytime, but now is the only time to get into darkness. if the altar is destroyed again, this time it will be really doomed.”

after saying that, aira shut her mouth.

she knows too.

i knew it in my head, but my heart wanted to put him at ease.

‘there’s nothing i can do to help.’

aira, who shed a bitter smile, was held captive in ray’s arms.

“don’t overdo it.”

the sweet fruity scent from her tickled his nostrils.

as i embarrassedly buried my face in my arms and said, ray nodded furiously.

“i hate people who overdo it the most in the world.”

* * *

all the elves greeted each other and left the temple.

now, the only two people left in the temple were rei and sunbok.

– brother, what are you going to do now?

“as expected, they are high elves. you made it exquisitely well. it would be nice if i could take this and use it for magic research.”

i couldn’t take it with me, so it was just a piece of cake.

with a sigh of regret, the man started working.

i took out a small stick with a magic stone from the leather pouch i brought.

using that as a support, he stretched out his hand into the altar, and the man’s hand moved closer to the altar.

‘i want to absorb the altar at once, but the amount of mana is too much.’

i have no choice but to take my time and do it slowly.

his hand, which was gradually approaching, touched the altar.

the moment he rotated the circle to guide mana to the magic stone.

an intense current ran through his body.

“quaaaaagh!”

electric current.

no, as mana itself penetrated the man’s body, an irresistible pain came.

the man hurriedly tried to remove his hand.

however, the power of mana interfered with it.

his hand was already attached to the altar like a magnet.

the mana from the altar was ferociously breaking through his body to the point of destroying the circle.

eventually he fell limp with his hands attached to the altar.

* * *

“aaaaaagh!”

rey’s eyes slowly opened due to the screams from the temple.

a sinister smile formed on his lips as he slowly rose from his seat.

“heh heh. you are behind.”

he pioneered his own unique path to shorten the time to create magic circles.

i played a joke there.

if someone touches the altar’s mana without proper mana control, the altar’s mana will pour out all over the body.

in other words, the mana reflux was intentionally created.

high elves have the power to overcome it on their own.

on the other hand, what if you are human?

he couldn’t control the altar’s mana, but he didn’t have the ability to stop the backflow.

the moment you touch it, you will be forced to become one with the altar.

soonbok woke up late and looked at the temple.

– i can feel the presence! it’s an intruder!

leaving soonbok, who was playing the back drum, ray walked towards the teletalle shrine.

after passing through the forest and entering the temple, as expected, a man in a black robe was drooping.

seeing him lying down with crab foam at his mouth, he seemed to have enjoyed the pain to the fullest until he came.

ray approached him.

“because i knew there would be a rat hiding there. where are you from, you bastard?”

“euuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu... i can’t say... i can’t... kill me...”

“being consistent in the field.”

the man humbly waited for his imminent death.

a being with a mission like himself is always prepared to die.

now, the fear of death has not risen.

hana ray had no intention of killing him.

with a smile on his face, he rose from his seat without hesitation.

“okay. then see you tomorrow.”

and then he left the temple.

without looking back once.

he really left, leaving himself and the altar behind.

mana flowed from the altar again.

as the intense pain ran through his body, the man screamed again.

“aaaaaagh! come back too! come back and kill me! aaaagh!”

the mournful screams continued in the temple.
