Chapter 109
“In this case, the solution is to pull up the long intestine underneath and connect it.”
The problem was that it was technically difficult.
Do you use a technique that is low in difficulty but is dangerous, or the difficult but safe one?
In this case, of course, the answer was clear.
‘Let’s do it. I should trust myself.’
Raymond pulled up the small intestine located under the duodenum.
The small intestine was winding and easy to pull up much higher.
The sides of the small intestine were cut off and connected to the sides of the stomach.
Is it because of his accumulated experience? Raymond was able to suture remarkably well, even though he thought he wouldn’t.
And in time.
“Sigh.”
With a long breath, the operation was over, and the patient came to life.
[The professional qualification test is over!]
[The patient survived!]
[Your test evaluation is “pass”!]
[Congratulations on passing the exam!]
[The rise of the grid has been made up!]
[Your class has become a first-time specialist!]
Raymond finally became a ‘specialist’.

“Thank you so much!”
The Marquis of Ayton thanked hi,.
“I, Ayton. With the title as the Marquis and in the name of the Kingdom of Clever, would like to express my sincere gratitude.”
Prince Enrique, who was conscious, also groaned and thanked. “Thank you, I thought I was going to die….”
Raymond smiled softly.
“No, I’m a healer. I’m glad your highness has recovered.” It was the image-making he always do!
As always, the effect has been perfect.
‘If I say this, they will be moved and they will give me a much bigger reward.k
Prince Enrique and Marquis Ayton were both very moved.
‘How can there be a healer like that?’
‘I respect you.’
Healers’ greed was the same everywhere in the world. So they were shocked to meet someone like Raymond after always seeing greedy healers in the Clever Kingdom.
“I can’t do that. Tell me what you want. I’ll compensate you for anything.”
Raymond was troubled.
He was happy that it was reward time. However, he was worried about what to get.
‘The Clever Kingdom is the weakest country in the Crusades. It is said to be extremely poor because it has no money.’
The major industry in the Clever Kingdom is the mercenary industry.
Most of the territory is a rough mountainous area, so they send mercenaries to other countries to make money. It was that poor of a country.
‘Even if they ask for a cost treatment, it’s hard to expect a lot of money, and is there anything else good about it? The opportunity to treat royalty doesn’t come easily.’
In this case, you have to ask for something you can’t buy even if you pay for it.
But I couldn’t think of anything in particular.
If there was one thing they are famous for, it was herding, so beef.
‘I heard Clever Kingdom’s beef is so delicious. I’m drooling just thinking about it.’
Among them, it is said that the meat quality of beef running in the Mephoms Mountains is incredibly good.
It’s so great that the aristocrats of the Peninsula kingdom, the best gastronomic group of the Crusades, go crazy.
Beef from the Mephoms range cost thousands of pennies per head, and it was hard for any aristocrat to taste due to lack of supplies. ‘It was also one of my bucket lists in the past. Let’s try a mountain of beef from Clever Kingdom,’ Raymond thought so far, clenched his fist. ‘Good. I’ve made up my mind!’
“I don’t really want anything different from any healer,but…” Raymond said, slurring his end.
“But?”
“I’m worried because it’s hard to get special food and beef that patients need. Can you help me later?” Marquis Ayton and Prince Enrique opened their eyes wide. “Does beef help cure patients?”
“Yes, it not only supplements malnutrition, but also strengthens immunity and relieves depressive emotions that hinder disease recovery. It’s also helpful for our healers. Beef is truly a walking, natural herb!”
“Oh!”
“Especially, the better the meat quality, the greater the effect. But as you know, isn’t the beef in the Clever Kingdom the best?”
The Marquis of Ayton nodded with pride.
“Yes, you know it well!”
He spoke in a loud voice.
“Don’t worry. From now on, if you tell me, I’ll send you the best beef generously.”
“Thank you.”
“No. I never knew it would be helpful for patients and healers. I am glad to see that the beef of my kingdom will be used for something meaningful.”
But Prince Enrique added thereafter.
“I think that’s not enough. Is there any other reward you want?” Raymond pondered.
‘What do I ask for?’
He decided to hang it up because I couldn’t think of anything in particular.
“That’s alright. It’s just that if there’s anything I need help with in the future, I’d appreciate it if you could help me then.”
So Raymond left to see another patient, and the Marquis of Ayton and Prince Enrique had a conversation. “What a joke. To serve only his patient till the end.”
“Yes, prince, I was really impressed that he asked for beef for his patients. The rumors were all true.”
They recalled the rumors about Raymond.
A respectable great man who cares only about patients and others.
Also, the Holy Father of the Kingdom of Houston, who made numerous contributions.
And… …the illegitimate son of a king.
Prince Enrique lowered his voice.
“What do you think of Baron Penin’s future?”
The Marquess of Ayton could not answer easily.
‘There’s a high possibility that it won’t be good.’
Since he was an illegitimate child of the king, he was likely to face a miserable end under the check of the princes.
But why?
Somehow, he keeps thinking differently.
‘It was said that the support of common people for him is high. He also has a lot of supporters from the Houston army.’
He also saw Raymond’s image today.
“Baron Penin is not a man without ambition; he is deeply ambitious, perhaps an ambition for the people.”
It was a story that Raymond would say, ‘Huh?’ when he heard it.
“That’s what I felt too.”
‘If there is anything I need help with, I would appreciate it if you could give me grace then.’
That was the last word Raymond left.
The Kingdom of Clever is famous for its mercenaries.
In other words, it has a strong military power compared to national power.
Isn’t asking them for help in the future to prepare for a dispute in the future?
“What’s Your Highness’ judgment?”
“I don’t think it’s an easy decision to make. I’ll have to be as careful as I can, but I don’t think there’s any chance for Baron Penin to fall at all.”
“How come?”
“His charisma.”
“……!”
The Marquis of Ayton was startled.
“Didn’t you just feel that too? Baron Pennine has charisma, an essential virtue for a monarch.” Amazing. In a way, it was absurd.
What is charisma to Raymond?
But the Marquis of Ayton nodded.
“That’s right. I felt a warm dignity in his soft smile.”
Marquis Ayton used the word warm dignity.
It means charisma that comes from a warm heart, not charisma that is pressed on top of authority or fear.
And this gentle charisma is more difficult to have and more effective than other charisma.
“It wasn’t the charisma that an ordinary character would have. I’m definitely looking forward to it in the future.”
“First of all, I’d like to have the best of friendship with Baron Pennine.”
And there was a reason why they felt that way.
It’s actually a change that happened to Raymond.
***
After becoming a specialist, messages came to his mind.
[After hard training, you proved your own skills!]
[ reached the level of “first-time specialist!]
[You are now a doctor who can stand on your own!]
[The following changes occur due to the increase in the level!]
[The skill “Heart of Steel” goes up to grade C!]
[The Heart of Steel]
Classification: Attribute Skill
Rating: Legendary
Proficiency: D → C
-“More powerful” steel will and a strong wick. These attributes are maximized for patient work.
I have a stronger will than before.
That wasn’t all, though.
[Skill: “Doctor’s Charisma”!]
[Doctor’s charisma]
Classification: Attribute Skills
Rating: Legendary
Proficiency: D
– You will have a warm dignity as a specialist.
– This charisma is maximized for patient-related work!
– You will become a more trusted and respected person!
- ……… I’m dignified?’
Raymond looked perplexed.
Dignity. Is there anything that doesn’t match Raymond as much as that word?
Generally speaking, such words are appropriate for those with powerful authority, overflowing confidence, and strength. Not a timid person like Raymond.
But his mood actually changed.
Just as a position makes a person, he naturally has a dignity that gives trust in his body as a specialist.
Also, that wasn’t the only additional skill.
[Skill: “Specialist’s judgment”!]
[Professional’s Judgment]
Classification: Attribute Skills
Rating: Unique
Proficiency: D
– You are now able to make clearer judgments as a specialist.
– In making decisions about illness, your intellect stat rises by 5!
-Also, for once a week only, you will be able to make clearer judgments! Intelligence Stars go up by an additional 5!
-Cool time decreases as skill level increases, and intelligence stat increases.
It was an amazing skill!
When treating a patient, it is often difficult to judge, and that’s when you can get great help.
“Being specialist is good. Then what’s the next job grade?”
During his residency, he went through the courses of a “novice resident,” a “senior resident,” and a “senior chief,” so a specialist will have that same process for sure.
However, an unexpected message came to his mind.
[By becoming a specialist, you’ve reached a tipping point!]
“Tipping point?”
[A specialist can stand on his own as a doctor. You have to decide your future!]
[Decide your career path between Golden Road, Top of Medicine, and Third Path!]
Raymond shuts up.
“I have to decide my future?”
***
Raymond understood why this quarter came about.
“Even if you’re the same doctor, your career path is different.”
Everyone does the same training during the residency.
However, after becoming a qualified specialist after training, the career path varies widely.
“You can focus on making money from medicine, or you can stay in the ivory tower and dig deeper into medicine. Or you can use medicine to do something other than becoming a doctor.”
The Golden Road, the Top of Medicine, and the Third Way seemed to explain each case.
