Chapter 42
“Raymond… …no, now Baronet Penin. Is he Oden’s son?”
– Yes, he is. He is an illegitimate child, to be exact.
“How long ago did he become a healer? What’s his grade?”
– I heard that he got a U rating. It is the first grade issued in the history of the Tower of Therapy.
U, which stands for Undetermined.
The man, like the acronym, was troubled by Raymond.
‘He decoded Oden’s poison while he got an F-rated healing.’
‘At first, I thought he was a healer with great healing power.’
‘However, I was surprised to hear that he was a healer with less than an F grade.’
‘What was even more surprising was what the under qualified healer had done in the Bay Area.’
‘Using ancient secret arts and not ordinary heals? What the hell is medicine? Surgery?’
‘I heard the report, but I didn’t have any idea.’
It is also said that he had used a knife, but it was not known how to treat patients with a knife.
‘Is it a fake trick?’
‘I had such doubts, but it was hard to ignore when I saw Oden’s poison get revealed just like that.’
“Then will he stay in the Bay Area?”
-Yes, I think so.
“Hmm….”
The man stroked his smooth chin.
The reason I keep caring about Raymond is because I am plotting a new plan in the Bay Area.
“Is there any chance that the healer will stop our plot with ancient secret arts?”
….
The person across from the crystal ball did not answer for a moment.
Right. Right.
While the man tapped the table with his finger, the other person who had finished thinking carefully answered.
– I think it’ll be difficult.
“Why?”
– Because to prevent our conspiracy, he would need broad and deep knowledge, not just the ability to treat patients.
The person across the crystal ball said with conviction.
– It is impossible to have the knowledge to stop our plans unless he grew up reading books and had been stuck in the library from an early age. So you don’t have to worry.
Only then did the man look satisfied.
“Yes, work hard. Is it that day soon?”
-Yes, I’m done. It’s not too long before the reaction starts.
“You must have taken care of the traces, right? It’s a problem if you get caught in a useless pod.”
-Yes, I wiped it clean in a quiet place.
Erased.
It means killing the person involved.
“Yes, then work hard.”
The communication crystal was turned off, and the man poured wine into an empty glass before bringing it into his mouth.
The man reflected on the conversation he had just had.
“Raymond. I don’t feel good for no reason.”
He recalled a video portrait of Raymond sent by an informant.
“Your eyes are so emerald.”
emerald eyes.
It was a symbol of a certain famous family.
Of course, there are many other people with emerald eyes besides them, so it’s a coincidence.
The man shook his head.

It wasn’t just that.
“Our prince went to the royal palace and asked the king for such a favor?”
“Yes, he asked them to work hard for our Bay Area because he don’t need any other compensation.”
“Ha. How can he always be generous?”
The people of the slums were in tears.
A fool prince who only cares for others.
“Even if you look around the world, there will be no one like that again.”
“That is right. I don’t know how to repay the kindness he has shown us.”
“He always gives……”
“Wow. I’m so grateful that I’m tearing up.”
Countless people shed tears of gratitude.
What kind of person has been there for them all this time?
“He may really be an angel from heaven. The Lord has sent him from heaven because he pities us.”
“That’s right. I think so, too.”
People felt so grateful to Raymond that they could tell such an absurd story with all their heart.
That’s how Raymond’s reputation rose endlessly.
[Your reputation is rising!]
[Your reputation is rising!]
After so much fame…
[You acquired a new title!]

‘I got a very cool title, and I got to level up.’
But Raymond was really interested in something else.
“Hanson, who am I?”
“You are Baron Penin.”
“So, who am I?”
“You are Baron Penin.”
Raymond’s lips were twitching.
It’s good to level up, it’s also good to get a new title. However, it’s not comparable to a noble rank.
‘I can’t believe I got the rank of baronet!’
‘I have become a nobleman when I used to be treated like a filth!’
Raymond’s face twisted strangely as he held back his laughter.
‘Hahaha. I can’t believe I’m a titled aristocrat. What a peerage!’
Title nobility!
It refers to a person who actually has a title among the nobles.
Of course, it is the lowest rank that does not even belong to the fifth rank.
It doesn’t have a territorial map, it’s even a single win.
But so what?
It’s so nice.
“Who am I, Hanson?”
“This is Baron Penin.”
“Louder your voice!”
“Yes, Baron Penin!”
‘I think I asked him almost 200 times, but Hanson answered me sincerely every time.
‘It’s not just about receiving a title.’
Raymond opened the status window.
[Player Status]

Class: Surgeons (SSS)
Occupational Level: Novice Resident
Level: 37

Auxiliary Occupation: Not Activated
Thanks to the second level up in a row, his level was already 37!
‘If I raise three levels from now, I’ll get promoted soon! I’ll be getting rid of the novice’s resident ticket!’
Still, it was meaningful to remove the label of a “beginner.”
‘When I reach level 40, I’ll advance to the commoner’s area. I can’t just stay in the Bay Area all the time.’
Raymond made a firm commitment.
‘Let’s go into the commoner’s territory and make a fortune!’
Meanwhile, an event occured in the Bay Area.
A new supervisor has been appointed.
***
Alright.
A handsome young man had his eyes closed in a carriage headed for Bay Area.
It was a young man wearing one-eyed glasses, and he looked as if saying, “I’m intelligent and smart.”
It wasn’t really wrong.
The young man’s name is Lao.
He was the eldest son of the renowned prestigious military family, Count Kaplan, and the youngest graduate of the Royal Academy.
Not only did he pass the exam as the top student, but he also graduated from a five-year course in three years. Not to mention top of his class.
After that, he continued to perform brilliantly as an administrative officer, and this time he was appointed as the manager of the Bay Area.
It was an unconventional appointment, considering that ordinary managers are at least in their 40s or older.
It was a great honor, but the expression of the young man heading to the Bay Area was not very good.
He had no choice but to.
‘How can I cooperate with Raymond and the likes of him?’
Lao clenched his fist tightly.
“What do you look at me for?”
Who is he? He was a super elite who had taken the elite of elite courses.
He was incomparable to such an illegitimate child.
‘No, it doesn’t matter that he is illegitimate.’
Lao held back his emotions. He was an open-minded elite. Therefore, unlike other nobles, he had less prejudice against status.
‘Should I say that I’m an enlightenment elite? There were quite a few commoner friends who were close to megter all.’
“He wasn’t born because he wanted to be born as an illegitimate child, so I shouldn’t curse his blood. Instead, shouldn’t I curse my father who sowed the wrong seed?’
Of course, in Raymond’s case, his father is the king, so that’s no good.
In any case, Lao was angry at Raymond’s birth, but not because he is an illegitimate child.
‘That’s not what I’m angry about. He made a contribution this time, but isn’t he a healer? But they are asking me to cooperate with him. What do they think of me as a chief of the Royal Academy?’
Chancellor Galman appointed Lao and asked him to consult Raymond if he had any difficulties.
Perhaps out of consideration for Lao’s pride, he spoke in a cautious tone, but the smart Lao immediately noticed.
It’s not him that Galman trusts, it’s Raymond.
It hurt his pride that he couldn’t stand it.
“Damn it.”
‘I’d give it up if I wanted to, but I couldn’t.’
‘I’ll have to check it out for myself. Whether he is an acceptable person or not,’ Lao bit his lips.
‘If he is not a person he can recognize…’
He’s going to ignore Raymond thoroughly.
***
After entering the Bay Area, Lao tilted his head.
‘The atmosphere isn’t as bad as I thought.’
The Magul of the Capital!
That was the perception of the general public.
But it wasn’t like that at all.
‘The atmosphere is much better than when I came here in the past.’
During his academy years, he had come to Langtram, an entertainment street in the Bay Area with his friends. Every time, he would feel a gloomy atmosphere, but now it wasn’t like that at all.
‘Why?’ Lao asked the coachman why.
“Because of the prince.”
“Prince?”
“Oh, I’m sorry. Prince is a nickname that we call Raymond. Anyway, thanks to him, the atmosphere changed like this.”
Then the coachman smiled brightly.
“He’s like our hero.”
“……why?”
“It’s a bit long pf a story. Would you like to listen to it?”
The coachman was excited about what Raymond had accomplished.
“So, what he’s done for us since he first came…….”
The story that started like that didn’t end.
The coachman spat on Raymond’s performance.
“I mean, when he catches that guy Toms……!”
Lao listened to the story with a puzzled face.
This coachman. He’s half out of his mind with excitement.
Even if an idiot father boasted about his daughter, it would not be like this.
