The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 419

Episode 419 Misunderstanding in the Name of Sacrifice (2)

“Oh, Shang. This is why we should have quickly changed all the armor or unified the armor design from the beginning!”

Rachiel truly resented her luck today. It wasn’t too much of a stretch.

In the end, you end up standing in front of Bone Dragon like this? To humbly accept the bait’s fate like this?

That wasn’t it either.

In fact, he had no intention of going forward like this. No, in fact, he was currently ‘running away’.

‘I wasn’t coming down this alley in the first place…’

Suddenly, I remembered what happened three minutes ago.

It was right after the mayor jumped down the watchtower. He himself followed the mayor down to the ground. And I looked at the situation.

A picture of the mayor changing his helmet. I saw Bone Dragon reacting to that appearance.

I confirmed everything, including the mayor running away with a solemn gesture and the bone dragon following him to take the bait.

Only after that did I come out. The market ran hard in the opposite direction from which it ran.

In the meantime, I was also playing around with my own little hair. I deliberately chose an alley that would not be conspicuous and moved there. Of course, the goal was the castle gate.

But it wasn’t easy. The back alleys of the city were more complicated than I thought. The road became more confusing because of the fires that broke out here and there. Then I turned into this alley.

But was it right after that?

The radioactive Bone Dragon’s roar, heard from afar, is getting closer!

I was embarrassed. I ran harder. But the roar came closer. Finally, it came from beyond the wall.

My strong premonition was fully charged. At that moment, something flew into the wall and crashed into it. Thanks to this, the wall collapsed.

And Taran.

In this way, a naked(?) appearance was presented in front of the Bone Dragon.

‘Oh, my arms are like this!’

You can’t do anything.

If you think about it, it was like that from the beginning. Even in Korea, my life was full of chaos.

I finally became an Oriental medicine doctor and felt like my life was going to get better, but I was hit with the coronavirus crisis again and it got screwed up. It was the same when I came here. I thought I might have become a member of the royal family, but my life was limited.

If you think about it that way, there is no limit.

It will be the same today as well.

‘okay. It was destined to be like this from the beginning. Did I get out of the city safely? Achieving 300 days without incident and returning to the Imperial Capital? That’s the sound of putting vinegar on a dog’s horn and eating it.’

The more I think about it, the more tears flow from my sense of injustice!

But fortunately(?) I was wearing a helmet to shield myself, so I was able to avoid others noticing my moist eyes.

The most frightened expression was also not shown. Thanks to this, the people around me fell into a crucible of passionate misunderstanding towards this side.

This was especially true in the market.

“Hwa… Crown Prince… You?”

Mayor Breda’s words trembled involuntarily. It had to be that way. It was so unexpected.

This was because they had never dreamed that the crown prince would actually step forward in the face of such a threat in this desperate situation.

“You… are just a member of the royal family of a foreign country… why…”

Did he step forward as if he would shoulder everything like this? Is it possible to stand confidently without hesitation in the face of death, which may come without hesitation?

Just for a city in another country. For those who have no connection to this city. Are you saying that you are willing to put aside all your fears and anxieties and make a huge sacrifice?

‘Really…’

I’ve never seen anyone like this.

I never thought it would exist.

So I didn’t understand.

If he were to find himself in the same situation, if he had to sacrifice his life for the border city of the Empire of Magentano, if he had to pretend to be a bait for a trap from which he would never return… Would he really be able to step forward so confidently and resolutely?

‘no.’

never.

impossible.

The mayor could speak with confidence. Even if he had great courage, he couldn’t do this. No human being could do this. But… this person is willing to do this.

So… I respect you.

“Please step aside, Mayor. “It looks like the bait has already been changed to me.”

“…!”

How can you not even the end of your voice tremble? The mayor felt moved without realizing it. Rachiel was equally moved. Of course, I couldn’t feel even one gram of emotion.

‘Oh, I’m nervous. tremble!’

My legs were shaking. My head felt dizzy. I felt like tomorrow. Honestly, I was scared. Have you ever been this scared in your life?

Ah, I think it only happened once. The night before I was discharged. I was so scared that night when I tossed and turned countless times.

Will I be able to go back to a world where I have no one but my family? What should I do? I was scared because it was overwhelming. I was more scared because it was vague.

But now I am just as scared as I was then.

Bone Dragon recognized this side. A skeleton that looks like a pure white tree branch left over from a fire. The sight of a man trembling with suffocating heat with his mouth wide open. It felt like I was smiling. But I thought that the smile was directed at me. I got goosebumps.

‘shit. shit!’

I can’t hold on any longer.

I turned around, thankful that the shielding armor covering my entire body did not show my fear. I ran with all my might.

Was that a signal?

– Tsukahaaaaaaa!

The bone dragon, which seemed to stop and smile at the sight of this person who suddenly encountered it, began to move. No, he kicked the ground and rushed forward.

It’s as if the market right in front of you isn’t even visible. Aiming only for this one.

Kku-kwa-kwa-kwak-!

“Oh crazy!”

I ran to the other side of the alley. Fragments of the fence, shattered in real time from behind, flew indiscriminately.

I opened the door of the house on the corner of the alley, listening to the clear and beautiful sound of fragments hitting the armor plate. I ran inside.

Bone Dragon also followed him into the house. Of course, knocking was omitted.

Quad deuk!

Its massive head and torso smashed through the front door and living room. Of course, by that time, they were leaving the house through the back door across from the living room.

“majesty!”

Damian shouted as they ran side by side.

“I am! “I will stand behind you and stop this guy!”

“no!”

He jumped over the backyard fence in one go and shouted.

“Blood sugar! “Don’t use it now!”

Not now.

You have to save it.

Why?

If you try it now, you won’t be able to beat that monster. Of course, he will take a hit, but it will only be temporary.

“Anyway, this place is just like open land to him. That way, no matter how briefly you stop him, he will eventually catch up! Even if you hide in that gap, there is no answer!”

“Why?”

“Because he’s going to search the entire city like teeth to find me!”

Then this city will be destroyed. You will be showered with fire and radiation all over your body. This is true even if citizens are sheltering in place.

Eventually, his magic will reach there too. People gathered together would not be able to escape and would be killed.

Like the numerous disasters we have seen at the border so far.

Like the countless deaths that were so terrible.

“….”

I don’t like that.

These days, even when I close my eyes, those images come to mind as if they are stuck to my retina and hanging on my eyelids. In fact, I woke up in a cold sweat almost every day these days.

A dead mother holding her baby tightly while her entire body burned. The baby who died in his arms. Stiff movements, just as they were struggling in pain. expression. Fingers with only traces left behind. The burned lips that once would have kissed your family.

But that happens to this city too. I didn’t like that. Aside from being scared and having your legs shaking because of the Bone Dragon, if you close your eyes and pretend not to notice the impending catastrophe…

‘Oh, Shang. ‘This damn Korean grit!’

In the end, am I just one of those Koreans who can’t help but pick up things that are spilled on the road and then go on my way after everyone else picks them up? Gukbbong? Even if you curse like that, I have nothing to say.

But what should I do if it is true? I can no longer choose the option of hiding alone.

‘It would have been perfect if the market had continued to be the bait!’

If that were the case, I would have been able to escape with peace of mind, taking only this group with me. But not anymore. Even if the decoy party tried to refuse, refund(?) became impossible.

So….

“Save it! You still only have two multimana hearts! So save it and use it later!”

“When do you mean later?”

“Inside the mine!”

“No way…”

“No way, go to sleep and come here quickly!”

I led Damian, whose eyes were wide open in astonishment, inside the helmet. I saw a pile of boxes piled up under a wall.

I jumped and stepped on it. I was kicked. He broke the second-floor balcony window of a house and jumped in.

– Haaaaaaa!

Kukwa Gwagwak!

Just barely there, the guy’s head and upper body broke through the balcony and followed him in. But its front paws couldn’t reach this side.

This was because the second floor floor, which could not support the man’s weight, collapsed and his body fell down along with it.

“now!”

I ran down the hallway, stepping delicately on the collapsing second floor floor. I stepped on the railing outside the window at the end of the hallway and jumped with all my might.

Throw in!

The circle of Yongcheonhyeol exploded. Damian also jumped alongside. I landed on the roof of a two-story house across the alley outside the window. And ran.

I ran and jumped across the roof, maintaining the same speed as on flat ground.

– Tsukahaaaa!

The bone dragon’s roar as it shakes off the rubble of the house that has fallen on its body. I could hear the sound of him running from behind, crushing the houses in his path.

But the distance didn’t get any closer. This was because restrictions were placed on the obstacle runner, unlike this one who ran without hesitation, skipping across rooftops.

“good. Now go over there!”

Running on the roof had one more advantage. Unlike when I was running down the alley, my view was clearer. Thanks to this, I could see where to go.

The inside of the city, with its back facing a huge vertical cliff like a folding screen. The point where the city meets the cliff. It was towards the entrance to the tin mine there.

“run!”

– Haha!

Should this come first?

Will that guy catch up with us before then?

My body moved before my calculations. As the remaining distance to the mine shortened, my breathing became heavier. Sweat poured down like rain. Shouts in this direction also poured down like a shower.

“Waaah-!”

Are they reserve soldiers?

It seemed like that at first glance while I was running. They were raising their fists in this direction and shouting. Each person’s excited gestures. Are some of them wiping away the tears soaking the inside of their shielded helmets?

It’s probably because of a misunderstanding.

This person boldly stepped forward and became bait. The crown prince of another country is willing to make sacrifices that will bring no benefit to them. It must be because of a strong misunderstanding.

‘under. really. If you’re going to be so openly impressed, why not at least declare that you will convert the entire city to our empire?’

It can’t possibly be like that.

I laughed.

In fact, there was no time to laugh.

– Tsukahaaaaaaa!

The distance that had widened as I ran along the alley was rapidly shrinking as it entered the main street. The distance from the mine entrance also decreased. more. a little bit. more. If you run. now. soon.

“Aaaah!”

Rakiel gave up all the strength he had while breastfeeding and spurred on. Damian tried his best to pull on his master’s collar.

And finally, the two threw themselves into the mine together. Immediately after that, the Bone Dragon roared and rushed in, crushing the entrance halfway and entering inside.

Quad deuk!

The roar of destruction.

And the silence that suddenly came.

As the monster, which had been continuously roaring and running, entered the mine, the cityscape, which had been a crucible of chaos, suddenly became quiet. At that moment, everyone felt it and realized it.

Indeed, the crown prince of a foreign country is making a great sacrifice for this city. That he stands up more resolutely than anyone else and confronts hopeless threats without fear.

“Hehehehe… Hehe!”

Tears flowed from each person’s eyes along with indescribable emotion. On the other hand, I had passionate and irrational thoughts.

If it were an empire ruled by a prince like that, it wouldn’t be that bad to live there as a citizen. Maybe it could be really good.

‘So… please be safe, great prince.’

A sip of hope that not everyone can say out loud. Likewise, the citizens who heard the news from the soldiers of the reserve unit united in hope for the crown prince’s safe return.

And a man who was watching the entire process from afar also let out a cry of sorrow the moment Rachiel entered the mine.

“…No way! Lee Han’s medical department!”
