However, he could not read any traces of emotion.

Odin just sat still and drank the murky drink, listening to people.

"There is such a man in the Kingdom of Houston. I was surprised."

"But I heard, he's an illegitimate child, not a prince?"

"Bastard or not, it doesn't matter. He is far more honorable than the other princes who have come before and violated us."

"Yes! He's a real prince, and no one is more worthy of him."

People said without hesitation, if anyone else heard it, they would respect it.

"Anyway, thanks to him, I feel like I'm living these days."

"Yes, Sir Raymond is our hope."

"I hope that someone like Sir Raymond will lead the Bay Area instead of the boar-like guy we have now as superintendent."

Those who had been talking for a long time raised their cups high.

"Cheers to Sir Raymond!"

"Cheers!"

People cheerfully shouted Raymond's name and raised their glasses.

"Oi, brothers. What are you guys doing? Why don't we make a toast together?"

"L-Long live Raymond."

"Raymond? How dare you?"

"L-Long live Sir Raymond."

It was Duke Galman who came to drink with them unexpectedly.

"...let's get out of here."

"Yes, Your Highness."

There was nothing more to listen to because both tables were talking about similar things.

'That's why the atmosphere of the Bay Area has changed.'

It was only then that Galman knew.

Why the air in the Bay Area was slightly different.

It was because of Raymond.

His presence was having a warm effect on the poor here in the Bay Area.

'I thought he was lucky to have held on, but I didn't know he was doing so well.'

No, he didn't know if "well" was enough to describe what Raymond did.

It was so amazing that he could not stop marveling at it.

"Raymond has a high reputation."

Galman carefully examined Odin's reaction.

"..."

Odin was silent for a moment. Then he opened his mouth.

"It's just a healer's job."

Galman frowned slightly.

He felt that it was an overly cold answer.

'He doesn't know how amazing what Raymond is doing is?'

Of course, it was just a healer's job.

But has anyone ever done it so far in the Bay Area?

'No one has.'

What should he say? He felt like he was deliberately criticizing him because his opponent was Raymond.

Galman replied, somewhat perverse.

"It's only because, as Your Highness said, the healer is doing a greater job than anyone else."
