Hanson did not stop his work by delivering the letter to Kansir.
âMy senior is trying so hard for the people in the slums, and I canât stay still either.â Hanson bit his lips tightly.
âWhy is he so stupid?â
Fool.
Yeah, Raymond was a fool.
He is a fool who only cares for his patient.
Didnât he head to the Dark Blade Guild for his patients in the slums even now?
âHe must have gone to warn them not to use such violence again to the people of the slums. He is someone whoâll do that for the sake of his patients.â
âEven though he doesnât know what kind of trouble he is going to face, heâd do that . Because Raymond was that kind of person.â
So he couldnât stay still either.
Hanson ran around the Bay Area, shouting that Raymond was in crisis.
âThe prince?â
âHe went to argue with the Dark Blade Guild for us?â
Upon hearing the news, the people in the slum rose with anger.
Normally, you wouldnât have imagined going against the Dark Blade Guild, but now the story is different.
Itâs Raymond.
How can you sit still when that silly prince, who is devoted solely to the slum, has entered the tigerâs den for himself?
âLetâs get up too!â
âNo matter how scary the Dark Blades are, the Prince stepped up for us, and we canât stay still!â
Revolution.
Yes, it was nothing short of a revolution.
Raymondâs dedication raised the slums.
People picked up sticks, knives, weapons at random, and headed to the Dark Blade Guild.
Only for Raymond.
After that, things went by quickly.
No matter how dark the blade was, there was no talent to cope with so many people flocking on them to fight.
Moreover, even the leader, Toms, has been suppressed.
The Dark Blade Guild collapsed in an instant.
âWow!â
âWe did it!â
âWhat are we?! Itâs all done by the prince!â
âLong live Prince Raymond!â
Raymond stood in front of the crowd with a puzzled face.
Toms, who was losing his mind, tied tightly to his hands, hung like a fish.
âWow! The prince overpowered Toms!â
People shouted in amazement.
âHow did the prince subdue Toms?â
âIt must have taken some risk for him to subdue Toms.â
âAs expected, PrinceâŚâŚ.â
People looked at Raymond with admiration and emotion.
Heâs a healer, but he can easily overpower Toms.
It was clear that he had made a meticulous plan with a great risk.
For them, for the people of the slums.
âTo take such risk for usâŚâŚ.â
âIt must have been very dangerous.â
âYeah, look at that forehead injuryâŚâŚ.â
The peopleâs eyes turned to Raymondâs forehead. There was a blue bruise on his forehead.
ââŚâŚThis is a bruise caused by hitting a wall while looking for a secret safe.â
Raymond thought with a puzzled look.
âI didnât have that thought at all, but I suddenly overpowered a group of evil âfor the poor.ââ
â¡âŚI donât even know whatâs what .â
When Raymond raised his hand slightly because of a headache, people who misunderstood it as being held up toward them cheered.
âWow!â
âUh, I didnât do thatâŚâŚ It just happened toâŚâŚ.â
âAs expected with sir Raymond! How can you be so humble that we feel pressured!â
âLong live sir Raymond!â
âLong live the Prince!â
In the end, Raymond gave up and stayed still.
ââŚI donât know. Letâs just shut up.â
However, the ordeal was not over.
The image of Raymond standing still was also very impressive to the peopleâs eyes.
Physically, Raymond is tall and handsome.
Now that he is even receiving a buff of grade-A for heart of steel, he has the cool self-confidence radiating all over his body. And as he keeps his mouth shut, that feeling has become stronger.
People shouted in admiration.
âLook at that stately figure. It is Prince Raymond, indeed.â
âBut I heard you shouldnât call him prince?âŚâ
âOh, I donât know. Shut up! Thereâs only one prince in our Bay Area from now on!â
âLong live Prince Raymond!â
âWow!â
Endless cheers rang out.
[Quest accomplished!]
[Bonus level up!]
[Bonus level up!]
[Bonus level up!]
[50 skill points are accumulated!]
[Your reputation is rising!]
[Your popularity has increased as well as your influence in the Bay Area has increased even more.]
Thatâs how Raymond got rid of the Bay Areaâs worst malignant abscess, the Dark Blade Guild.
***
Raymondâs suppression of the Dark Blade Guild was also reported to the Royal Castle.
Because the guild was a troublesome group even in the castle.
âRaymond overpowered the Dark Blade Guild?â
Galman looked surprised.
Dark Blade Guild!
How troublesome are they?
Theyâre completely in control of the slums, so they couldnât easily root them, and Raymond overpowered them just like that?
âHow on â-â
âIt was reported that Raymond came up with an elaborated plan, infiltrated the base himself, and subdued the leader Toms.â
âWhoa!â
Galman exclaimed with astonishment.
Toms is a top-notch mana user.
Not up to the level of an expert, but a strong man who deserves to be treated as a senior knight in a decent small and medium-sized order.
Raymond used a trick to subdue a man like that?
âWhat method did he use? It must have been incredibly dangerous. How could he do that? Have I misunderstood Raymond all this time?â
âI donât know what method he used, but he must have planned to risk his life.â
âHow could the child, who was so stupid, have such courage?â
ââŚâŚ he said he only took that risk for the people of the slums. That he couldnât stand to see them tormenting the slums anymore.â
âHuh. Thatâs great. Amazing.â
Galman recalled Raymond, whom he had seen recently.
A devoted figure that only thought of other people.
That Raymond must have taken great courage for the people of the slum.
âOnly for the people of the slums. Iâm so impressed.â
Galman even sighed with deep admiration.
âDid he get hurt? He had done such a dangerous thing. Is he feeling well?â
âHe got an injury on his forehead, but fortunately, it wasnât a big injury.â
âWhat a relief.â
Galman breathed a sigh of relief.
âSince he had done a great job, it is only natural to give him a bountiful reward.â
âThatâsâŚ.â
âWhy?â
âThereâs something else he had done besides overpowering them. In a way, itâs a much bigger ball.â
âHe made a much bigger contribution?â
The secretary nodded and went on surprisingly.
âSir Raymond did not simply subdue Toms, but even obtained a secret account of his wrongdoings.â
Galman had surprise written in his eyes.
What do you mean, a secret account!
He has obtained an enormous amount of documents.
âHe overpowered Toms and immediately found a secret ledger. I think heâs got a detailed plan to bring them downâ
âThatâs true.â
Galman thought in admiration.
âItâs not just courageous. Itâs been very carefully planned and executed. Was Raymond such a kind-hearted kid?â
âYes, thatâs good. With such a book, we can give the maximum sentence to everyone involve.â
âBy the way⌠âŚthere is a problem with that secret account.â
âHmm?â
The secretary spoke in a heavy tone.
âIt includes a list of aristocrats who have secret dealings with the Dark Blade Guild so far.â
ââŚâŚ!â
âAccording to the document, some nobles supported them from behind and received black money.â
ââŚAre you sure?â
âYes, there is even evidence that money has been exchanged, so it seems to be solid evidence. It even includes the Viscount Caspard, who was the Warden of the Bay Area.â
There was a moment of heavy silence in the office.
Galman said with a slumber.
âThere will be a storm.â
âYes, it is.â
The secretary nodded in agreement.
When the document is released, a stormy shock will literally sweep the political world.
It was a storm roused by Raymond.
In this way, Raymond unintentionally made a contribution in eradicating corrupt nobles.
***
When he was first caught, Toms had something to believe in.
âIf I hold out, the nobles who look after me will use their strength to release me. Weâll see then, you bloody Raymond.â
Toms gritted his teeth in prison.
âIâve given all kinds of bribes so far in case this day comes. They will not turn away from me because they have received something. If I get to be released here, you will be the first Iâd visit, Raymond.â
âYou will die the most painful death in the world.â
âIâll make you beg for help, such a weak bone healer.â He said while grinding his teeth. And then he suddenly thought of a strange idea.
âBut then the last shot. What was that?â
Toms squinted his eyes.
It was very strong to call it a simple attack by a weak bone healer.
So he was flustered and failed to respond properly, allowing the blow.
âWhat? Wasnât he just a healer?â
But Toms shook his head.
It didnât look like he had mastered the sword.
His body was also corrupt, and it was not the movement of a person who learned the sword at all.
ââŚbut why did the club fly so forcefully?â
âSo, it felt like I was beaten by a club wielded by an ignorant powerful knight in the past. â
ââŚno way. I must be mistaken. The aftereffects of the brief collapse must have been bigger than I thought.â
Toms couldnât continue thinking.
An adviser came into the prison.
âArgh! Stop it! How dare you! Do you not know who I am?!â
âWho are you? Youâre the worst bad guy in the world.â
When the civil gun pharynx supported himself, Toms realized something was wrong.
âArgh!â
He waited patiently, but there was no help for him.
Of course.
The aristocrats who received bribes were also arrested and questioned.
There was clear evidence that even the nobles could not be cleared of the charges.
Eventually, Toms didnât last for a few days, and he confessed everything about the Dark Blade Guild, which was completely uprooted.
