Doctor Player

Chapter 29

What should we do, sir?

Hanson asked with a pale face.

What should I do?

Raymond bit his lip.

If smallpox was indeed around, it was too dangerous to go out to treat a patient.

But is it really smallpox?

Raymond had such a question for a moment.

Why would it emerge all of a sudden after decades? Maybe its another infectious disease that has a similar pattern?

Rather, the probability was high.

People may have been terrified and driven to smallpox when theyre not sure.

As can be seen in syphilis patients, people here often made wrong judgments out of ignorance and fear.

It was very likely that he had mistaken a similar disease.

Then, Kanshir spoke.

Please stay away from this area for a moment. Ill clean up the patients soon.

What do you do with the patients?

Were going to burn them to clean it up.

Raymonds face hardened.

Clean up by burning.

It was ridiculous by the standards of modern earth, but it was common in Laipentaina.

Before the disease spreads, all patients and their families around them are burned.

Although its practically the only solution.

There was something that caught Raymonds attention.

Is it right to burn people to death when theyre not even sure that they have smallpox?

How on earth did you get the symptoms? Are you sure its the death reaper?

Kanshir looked at the subordinate who followed him.

Hmm. Let me explain. All the patients had high fever and terrible blisters all over their bodies. The inspirations who have experienced the reaper of death in the past are speaking in unison. Its the same symptom as then.

Raymond, hearing the explanation, was deeply lost in thought.

High fever and blisters? Besides smallpox, there are many diseases that show such symptoms!

Of course, the characteristic symptoms of smallpox, which was high fever and systemic blisters, were correct.

However, the problem is that smallpox is not the only disease that shows such symptoms.

If you look at it with your own eyes, youll be able to tell it apart.

The problem is that Raymond has to take risks.

What if its smallpox?

When approached by the patient, the possibility of transmission increases rapidly.

Ugh. I dont want to become as good as dead because I have smallpox. I dont want to die.

Raymond shivered.

I havent even enjoyed wealth and fame yet!

I havent had the chance to have steak yet, and Ive rarely had delicious alcohol!

If I die like this, it would be more than unfair that I wont be able to even close my eyes.

Wouldnt you rather leave the clinic for now? Smallpox is impossible, no matter how great you are, Senior. Hanson said cautiously.

Kanshir nodded as if he was right.

It will be okay if you clean up the patients by burning them, so the healer should stay away for a while and come back.

Raymond clenched his fist.

What should I do?

If its not smallpox, arent only innocent patients burned to death?

If I could just see it with my own eyes, Id be able to tell of it really was smallpox.

 In the end, it was a choice.

Risk of transmission from patients or not.

No one will say anything if you just leave without knowing.

Raymond was seduced in a corner of his heart.

Considering his usual goal, it was right to leave, pretending not to know anything. It wasnt about getting money.

But Raymond couldnt walk away.

How can you say that you are a healer if you turn away from a patient who is about to die?

Damn it. Why is it so hard to be a healer?

It was then.

A message came to his mind!

[A quest is given!]

[Save the patients who are on the verge of unfair death!]

(Personnel Quest)

Occupation Level: Novice Resident

Difficulty level: Medium

Clear Condition: Numerous patients with infectious diseases are on the verge of being burned to death. This is not the right treatment. Stop their unjust deaths through your knowledge!

Reward: Bonus level up, 20 skill points

Raymond closed his eyes tightly and said impulsively.

No, I wont leave.

Senior?

Healer?

Raymond said, biting his lips.

Maybe its not smallpox. Ill have to check.

What are you going to do if it is indeed smallpox? I could die. Even if I live, Ill be a gombo. You idiot!

Such a cry hit Raymonds head, but it was already spilled water.

I couldnt leave because I thought a distant person could be burned alive and die.

I didnt think I would feel comfortable with any wealthy movie in the future.

God, is there any way? Where Ill save the patients, and Ill be safe too.

However, I didnt want the epidemic to spread.

Raymond agonized desperately.

Save the patient, save yourself.

Think about it! There must be a way!

Through his knowledge of general medicine, he came up with the path of transmission of infectious diseases.

Smallpox is a droplet spread.

The patients saliva or runny nose spreads through coughing.

KWithout a professional medical mask, there is no physical way to prevent such droplets from entering the airway.

But it was that moment.

An idea flashed across Raymonds mind.

No, I have one. Theres a way to stop the droplets!

There is no infection prevention medical mask in the world.

But there was a means to replace it.

View Market.

The list flashed up.

Perhaps because his level has risen, the list of skills available for purchase has increased significantly compared to before.

Raymond opened an item with magic on the auxiliary skills list.

There it is!

[Shield (D)]

[Required points: 100]

He bought the skill right away.

[Shield]

Classification: Auxiliary (Magical) skills

Magic grade: Basic

Proficiency: D

Defend against physical threats.

-The more skilled you are, the more powerful you can defend yourself against threats!

-CAUTION: Low mana stat meant short duration!

This magic will stop the smear from entering the airway for a moment!

Physical blocking of droplets through shield magic can also prevent transmission!

Alright! Theres no problem now!

What hes trying to do anyway is to check if the patients have  smallpox.

Itll only take a moment, so it wont be a problem.

I understand the seniors feelings for the patients. But this time, its dangerous. Think again. Hanson stopped Raymond.

Its alright.

Senior!

Its really alright. I have a way. Can you do me a favor instead? Raymond put his hand on Hansons shoulder. 

Get me a thick hood for a mask.

 What?

Gloves, too. I should have a robe that can cover my whole body.

Hanson blinked, not knowing Raymonds intentions.

What are you going to prepare?

Raymond replied briefly.

A spacesuit.

It was a dress to prevent infectious diseases.

I couldnt rely solely on shield magic, so I was going to pack my whole body and go.

Patients are important, but my body is also precious. I can never give it to a virus or something!

***

From head to toe.

Raymond, who had bandaged his whole body like a mummy, headed to the place where the epidemic had occurred.

It happened to be a remote shack on the east side of the slum near the treatment center.

The crowd was gathering and holding a new light.

Wait a moment, please! This is Raymond.

No, the prince?

People looked at Raymond, who was like a mummy, in amazement.

Why are you here anyway? Its dangerous!

Please stay away from me!

People in the slums were worried about Raymond.

Im alright. But what are you trying to do?

The reaper of death has infested the children of this house, and they are trying to purify it by burning it.

Raymond glanced inside and saw the frightened children bursting into tears.

The childs parents screamed in despair inside the house.

Well, please! Please wait! We are not sure that this is the reaper of death yet! I dont mind dying, so please, dont let these children!

Those who held the torches made bitter faces at the screams.

Im so sorry.

If the disease goes around like this, countless people will die. It cant be helped for everyone.

Everyone looked distressed too.

All of them are neighbors who lived in one place.

How can you comfortably burn your neighbors to death? Everyone felt miserable.

If we leave it like this, countless people will be killed like it did 15 years ago. So.

It was time for people to clench their teeth and throw a new light.

Raymond hurried forward.

Oh, wait! I told you to wait!

[Heart of Steel is manifested!]

[Speech Skill is manifested!]

[The two skills create a synergy effect!]

[Your will for the patient is realized by your words!]

Raymond, standing in front of the crowd, opened his mouth in a strong tone.

Are you sure it is the reaper of death?

The healer?

Raymonds voice, whose heart and speech skills were expressed, was different from usual.

There was a heavy, controlling echo.

That.

Smallpox is not the only thing that boils and creates spots that appear on a face.

Terrible spots covering the whole body, including the face.

That was generally the way people guessed smallpox.

Is the death reaper the only disease that causes spots on your face? What about the red half flower? What about the chicken-crumb epidemic? Raymond mentioned the names of other conditions that could be similar to smallpox.

No one could answer.

Raymond said, clenching his teeth.

Ill check it out myself.

No! Its dangerous.

People jumped up and down in surprise.

What if you get infected? Absolutely not!

Save yourself!

People jumped up and down against it because Raymond was already very popular.

Dont worry. I have a way to keep the epidemic from spreading.

Dont lie! Arent you just trying to take a risk for your patients?

I know that the prince is a great man who only cares about patients. But not this time! 

Everyone stopped Raymond with a face of desperate struggle.

No, I think youre misunderstanding something about me, Raymond thought.

Well then, lets take this opportunity to get more points for the people in the slums.

Do you know why I step forward when it can be dangerous?

?

Because my heart aches.

Raymond continued to feel as desperate as he could with the help of the Heart of Steel and Speech skills.

I can abandon those patients But theres the reason that maybe I can save them, so I cant pretend I didnt see it!

!

The peoples eyes shook with emotion.
