The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 142

Episode 142 People who welcome me (2)

“Damian, come here and let’s sit down for a bit.”

“….”

“hurry.”

Pang pang!

A bonfire crackling and dancing quietly. As the night slowly deepened under the cloudy sky, Rachiel patted the seat next to her. And then I looked up at Damian, who was standing blankly.

Damian’s expression became scary.

“What’s going on?”

“why? “Is it strange that I ask you to sit next to me?”

“yes.”

“….”

“If you have anything to say, can’t you say it there?”

“huh. no.”

“Why?”

“I want to drain you.”

“….”

“Shall I get remotely serious here? huh?”

“Why on earth do you suddenly want to exhaust me?”

“Company welfare. Health screenings. I don’t know?”

“I do not know.”

“Then you can figure it out from now on. sit down. hurry.”

Rachiel snorted as if it was obvious. Damian sighed softly. But there was nothing he could do.

No matter how hard he tried, he was just an employee. If my employer(?) criticizes me, I have no choice but to criticize him.

He sat quietly where the crown prince pointed. However, his unique cool eyes were still shining brightly.

“I sat down as your majesty commanded. but-.”

“but?”

“I’m a little curious as to why you’re suddenly like this.”

“It’s enough to make you wonder again. “You have become a sword expert, right?”

“….”

The corners of Damian’s eyes were very faintly stinging. It was true.

Recently, during a fierce battle with Javilon, he learned the mana technique of reverse blood and naturally rose to the level of advanced sword expert.

However, I have not revealed that fact to anyone yet. But how does the crown prince know?

A sly smile formed on the corner of Rachiel’s mouth.

“It seems too obvious. Did you think I didn’t know that you’ve been tossing and turning all night because you haven’t been able to sleep well lately? Moreover, if there is even the slightest disturbing sound around him, he furrows his brows. “It’s a perfect college entrance exam… No, you just act like someone who has the day before an important exam.”

“….”

“So you suffer from Sword Master Syndrome?”

“…you’re right.”

I can’t hide it any longer with this much tweezers. In the end, Damian nodded. Rachiel’s smile gradually became deeper.

“also. Anyone who reaches the advanced level of Sword Expert cannot avoid that syndrome. All of my senses become overly sensitive, almost to the point of going crazy, and I can’t control it enough to alleviate it. “Only when you surpass that can you become a true sword master.”

“You know very well.”

“of course.”

Thanks to reading the novel Demon Sword Emperor, I knew very well about the main setting, Sword Master Syndrome. So it was. I decided to use that as an excuse.

“Insomnia will probably get worse in the future. Your nerves will also become more sensitive. “That would be difficult.”

“In what sense?”

“Wouldn’t my security be disrupted?”

“….”

“Because heightened senses can cause your nerves to tire sooner. Your concentration will often be broken, and your physical condition will be at its lowest as you cannot sleep. “Then your efficiency in escorting me will decrease.”

“….”

“I have to pay for the food since I am hired as a special worker, right?”

“….”

“That’s it anyway. You suffer from Sword Master Syndrome and severe insomnia as a result. Let’s diagnose how severe it is by taking a pulse. “Let’s come up with an appropriate prescription.”

“If you’re worried about my insomnia, can’t you just give me Minotaur Hwangcheongsimwon? “Isn’t the most representative side effect being a good night’s sleep?”

“huh. no.”

“Why?”

“expensive.”

“….”

“Minotaur Hwangcheongsimwon, how much is one pill? Also, didn’t you know that there are limited quantities for each season? Are you going to eat that every day? “Can you afford the medicine?”

“….”

With the logic of capitalism(?) without blood or tears, Damien’s objections were crushed in one fell swoop. In the end, Damian sank into the sea of silence.

Rachiel had a smile on her face. And I was nervous inside.

‘good. First of all, we created a natural atmosphere. From now on, it’s real.’

Little by little, my heart started pounding. Out of anticipation or curiosity? Of course not. To be honest, I was worried.

It felt like I was on the verge of checking how much time was left until a time bomb exploded.

‘We need to check how much Damien’s Reversa mind method has advanced his awakening.’

What if his awakening is complete?

Everything comes to an end.

At the very least, this entire continent will suffer a devastating blow greater than that of World Wars 1 and 2 combined. Even that assumes a very optimistic outlook.

‘First check.’

gulp.

Rachiel tensed and stretched out her hand. I placed my hand on Damian’s wrist and activated the pulse skill.

‘Jinmaek.’

Ding dong!

[Begin taking the pulse.]

[Scanning.]

[3… 2… 1…]

[The pulse results are in.]

[Please check the ‘Comprehensive Checkup Table’ below.]

A familiar notice came to mind.

He moved his gaze downward.

[Comprehensive medical checkup]

[Test of examination: Damian Cayenne]

[Race: Human(+?)]

[Gender: Male]

[Age: 3912]

[Height: 186.6 Cm]

[Weight: 79.2 Kg]

[Blood type: He+ D]

“ ….”

I saw tremendous results. The same goes for the mysterious (+?) mark on the race, the distant age that makes you wonder if you should immediately raise it 3,000 times, and the strange, unheard-of blood type.

‘also.’

changed.

It wasn’t like this the first time I gave him moxibustion.

At that time, the race, age, and blood type indicated on the comprehensive medical checkup sheet all had the specifications(?) of an ordinary human. But not anymore.

‘Is awakening really taking place?’

Rakiel looked further down with a nervous feeling. There was a ‘Comprehensive Opinion’ item there.

[Comprehensive opinion: The body is extremely healthy, strong, and balanced in all aspects. However, severe insomnia is detected due to excessive activation of the body’s senses and sympathetic nerves. Damage from the recent unreasonable level of mana reversal attempt remains on the body. Appropriate rest and meditation are recommended to soothe sensitive nerves and tired body. Additionally, some foreign and unknown tissue fragments are detected in the blood. The organization in question recently experienced rapid birth and proliferation, but its growth has stopped for unknown reasons.]

Rachiel read the comprehensive findings five times. I interpreted its meaning. I was able to reach a conclusion without difficulty.

‘…lived.’

He paid attention to the phrase ‘part of an organization of unknown origin’ mentioned at the end of the comprehensive opinion. I knew it as soon as I saw it.

That’s it. That is the seed of destruction that will grow inside Damian’s body. It is a sign of awakening.

But it stopped multiplying. In other words, the awakening process was interrupted for some reason.

‘That’s probably because I took the final blow that Javilon was casting.

In all likelihood, it seemed like it.

In fact, Damian’s Libersa technique was rapidly becoming stronger as he was overwhelming Javilon. I was reaching the stage of complete enlightenment.

However, this team suddenly intervened and performed Javilon’s final secret technique instead, breaking the flow.

‘He was startled when I jumped in and was caught by Javilon instead.’

That slush must have brought him out of his trance. Concentration would have been broken. The uncontrollable awakening would have stopped.

Once again, I thought it was a good idea to step forward. On the other hand, I also felt relieved.

‘I’m glad the awakening stopped. It’s okay as long as it doesn’t go any further from here.’

So let’s not let him be in danger from now on. Let’s avoid such situations as much as possible. Let’s keep him by our side as much as possible and let him live as a greenhouse flower by the prince’s side, who lives a comfortable life.

Rakiel repeated his new promise. And then I looked at Damian with somewhat harsh eyes.

“Tsk tsk tsk. It’s a big deal. “It’s a big deal.”

“…Is your insomnia very serious?”

“It’s just not that serious.”

“then…?”

Damian frowns slightly. He probably doesn’t even know what’s planted inside him. I hope I won’t know that for the rest of my life. I really mean it.

Raquiel put aside his true feelings and looked at Damian with stern eyes.

“You reversed mana, right?”

“….”

“You can’t do that anymore.”

“…Why?”

“Do you really have to tell me that? It’s common sense, right? “What are the side effects of mana retrograde?”

“I know. They say Manahart is broken. If you’re lucky you’ll be maimed otherwise you’ll die. But I didn’t experience any side effects.”

“It’s because I’m very lucky.”

“….”

“Don’t be optimistic that you will always be lucky. And then you get hooked. Moreover, the more you try to reverse mana, the more your Mana Heart will survive, but other parts of your body will steadily break down.”

“Is that so.”

“uh. surely.”

…Actually, it’s lame.

Damien’s mana heart, veins, and body are all intact. The only side effect from mana retrograde is minor damage.

For the average person, it would be about the level of fatigue after training your muscles for an hour at the gym.

‘But the more he continues to attempt mana reversal and the more he uses Reversa’s mind technique, the more his awakening will progress.’

Such situations must be prevented.

Rakiel spoke with a serious look for the first time in a while.

“Be honest. I don’t want someone who doesn’t take care of themselves to be my escort. okay? “After this time, if you attempt mana reversal without my permission and damage your body, I will fire you without notice.”

“Then, as for severance pay….”

“I won’t provide it to you.”

“Isn’t that unfair dismissal?”

“If you tease me, you can become the crown prince.”

“….”

“Or go to His Majesty the Emperor and complain. “If only there was a way to have an audience with him.”

“Your Majesty, are you really….”

“Really, what? “Is it shameful?”

“yes.”

“What are you going to do if it kills you?”

“….”

“If you feel wronged, you will be born as the emperor’s son. “Why couldn’t you do that?”

“….”

Waddeuk!

It’s disgusting. This is truly disgusting. If I could, I would like to hit that obnoxious bastard at least once. Damian clenched his fists without realizing it.

On the other hand, Rachiel smiled and pretended to be relaxed. Actually, I was nervous. In my mind, I wanted to reveal the truth to Damien.

But that can’t be possible. If that happens, the being inside Damian will realize its meaning.

Because his awakening will proceed uncontrollably. I can never tell you that much.

“So, mana retrograde is prohibited from now on. Understand?”

“…All right.”

That’s how they cracked down on Damien.

From then on, the journey to the imperial capital continued. It was a pleasant journey. The carriage was as comfortable as a first class seat, and the escort provided by Amboise was generous enough to be burdensome.

I traveled with them over mountains, across water, across plains, and through many cities.

And on the tenth day.

Finally, we reached the gateway to the outskirts of the imperial capital.

“…Whoa.”

Inside the carriage, Rachiel clutched her pounding heart. As I got closer to the gate, my heartbeat grew.

Because of the excitement of returning home(?)? It wasn’t. In fact, his heart palpitations were closer to nervousness. Or, it was a mindset of preparing for the scolding I would experience in the future.

‘The emperor will definitely cause trouble, right?’

It was easily predictable. It was because things were so big this time.

‘Originally, I was just going to quietly cosplay as a military doctor and earn my bonus life. I tried to come back quietly like that. ‘Tsk.’

He said he tried to persuade him that way when he first asked for the emperor’s permission. But what is the result? It has become completely different.

Somehow(?), I ended up directly attacking the leader of the rebel army, Javilon, without planning it. In the process, their identity was also revealed to the world.

On the one hand, it is a heroic feat and a feat, but on the other hand? It was also a serious act of interference in the internal affairs of another country by the royal family.

‘Perhaps thanks to that, it was quite a hassle having to keep up with the emperor and his nobleman. ‘I would have had to coordinate many issues with King Amboise.’

It must have all happened in the five days that he passed out.

It was enough to give me a headache just thinking about how much the emperor would be waiting for and how many nagging and longings(?) he had in store.

‘Ugh. What can I do? ‘It’s all mine.’

It was a moment when I was about to sigh again due to the rising sadness.

Shake!

Suddenly the carriage stopped. Soon, a disturbing sound was heard from the coach seat.

‘what?’

Rachiel opened the side window facing the coach seat.

“What’s going on?”

“Ah, Your Highness. “That is…”

Sir Gardin, who was sitting next to the coachman, looked back with a perplexed look on his face. Then he spoke in an even more embarrassed voice.

“I guess it’s at the gateway in front of me right now…”

“Yes, at the gateway. what.”

“It looks like His Majesty is here in person.”

“…uh?”

really?

really?

I couldn’t believe it at first. But when I looked around, it seemed to be true. It wasn’t just the carriage carrying us that stopped.

The entire guard had stopped and was making a fuss trying to line up in an orderly manner.

“….”

I understand what the atmosphere is like with those looks. Because I experienced it firsthand when I was at the training camp.

Was it the day Two Star visited the training center without notice? Regardless of whether they were officers, assistant instructors, or trainees, they were so sad and moved around so hurriedly.

‘ha. really.’

There was an even louder sigh.

The emperor himself came out to the gate. Did he just come out to have a drink or go out? Definitely not. I came out to see this side. Because you’re happy to see me? Nope. Absolutely not.

‘…If you were so mad that you wanted to crave it so much, you couldn’t even wait for me to go and came all the way out here!’

So this is fucked.

It’s real.

But there is no way to avoid it.

Rakiel became even more determined. I’ll be really upset today, but I’ll persevere. This too shall pass. I got off the carriage with a solemn heart.

At that moment he had to see.

Tadat…!

The emperor was running ‘astoundingly’.

A figure was seen kicking down the gate and running towards us like a wild boar from the Ural Mountains, abandoning the guards who were following behind in a hurry.

‘Wow Mr.’

My heart sank. Was he that angry? How much of a storm are they going to scold this side? It would be nice if I didn’t receive severe disciplinary action.

I had a strong determination in my heart. The distance from the emperor became closer. So he lowered his head.

I just looked at the ground, avoiding eye contact. The sound of footsteps came closer. I tried to be as polite as possible. Even the emperor’s loud breathing could be heard.

Soon, lightning will strike.

It was a moment when I had a premonition.

Wow!

Suddenly, the emperor suddenly embraced me.
