The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 97
Episode 97 Between sincerity and trust (2)
The morning dawned.
Rakiel came to his senses around sunrise. Fortunately, my energy was quite good.
“Is the crown prince feeling better now?”
“It was okay from the beginning?”
“So much.”
Click click click.
A mischievous smile appeared on Princess Adeline’s lips. The more this happened, the more intense the movements of the fork that was stirring Rakiel’s salad became. But Adeline didn’t care. Her eyes twinkled at Rachiel across the long table.
“You said something just before you passed out yesterday. “Do you remember how incredibly cringe-inducing it was?”
“no. “Don’t you remember?”
“No way. He looked clearly into my eyes and said this. So, what did you say?”
“Is this the end of today’s treatment?”
“Since I decided to get treatment…”
“Stop.”
“You are my…”
“That’s it.”
“Because I’m a patient…”
“Mr.
Rachiel’s face crumpled.
“Are you here to do this in the morning?”
“no. “Never?”
“No way. You’re looking at me clearly and making fun of me. So, what does this mean?”
“A visit full of goodwill?”
“So much.”
Wasak.
Rakiel grumbled while chewing a piece of carrot.
“Anyway, I’m fine. What happened yesterday… was something I had no choice but to endure during the treatment process. So, you can stop worrying about whether it will interfere with treatment.”
It was true.
Extracorporeal shock wave therapy to treat the princess’s gallstones. I was prepared that I would have to absorb the shock in order to implement it. I actually experienced it while practicing with Damien. However, the power of the princess’s mana as a power was stronger than expected.
‘As expected, it was the power of an intermediate expert fighter.’
It was on a completely different level from the mana that Damian, who mainly used a sword, produced with his bare hands. The moment I was guided and absorbed, I even felt my stomach flipping over.
I wondered if the plastic model figure that was held in the hands of my 3-year-old nephew on a holiday felt like that. It felt like the esophagus, duodenal villi, and sphincter were holding hands, being disassembled, and then reassembled in a sweet and rewarding way.
However, it was a treatment of my own choosing.
I endured it with spite and tenacity.
I fainted at the end. It was good up to that point. The problem was that he appeared ugly and unreliable in front of the patient. That was also what Raquiel was most worried about.
“In any case, treatment will continue without interruption. First of all, I will be treating general patients this morning, so please come back at noon. The afternoon will be reserved for gallstone treatment. “To ensure the stability of the procedure, you will need to fast for at least three hours.”
Rachiel urged earnestly. Even so, I wanted to divert the princess’s attention to something else.
First of all, the princess must not doubt this doctor’s treatment. It’s difficult to even question this team’s skills. You must trust this side completely. Only then will you be able to continue treatment with ease in the future.
‘So let’s not faint today. never.’
He made up his mind.
It was then.
“Hehe.”
Princess Adeline smiled strangely.
“I guess the crown prince is worried that I might find the treatment here unreliable?”
“….”
Did you get caught? Just as Rachiel was about to frown, Adeline said something unexpected.
“it’s okay. On the contrary, I am grateful.”
“…yes?”
“I saw it yesterday. How much effort did the Crown Prince put into treating me? How much have you endured alone? “Even after that, he didn’t even show anything.”
“….”
“That’s why. I believe in the treatment the Crown Prince is giving me. From that moment yesterday, I decided to believe that gallstones and getting rid of them would prevent me from dying.”
“Oh really?”
“yes. Gladly.”
Adeline nodded.
It was honest sincerity.
“Actually, at first, I was suspicious of the crown prince’s intentions and whether he was trying to play a trick on me. Because from my perspective, I had no choice but to do that. But now it’s different. I believe it. The noble heart that willingly treats countless people in the imperial capital free of charge. “And the selfless favor you readily gave me, a member of the royal family of a potential rival country.”
“Uh, then the princess came to visit me so early in the morning…?”
“I really wanted to tell you this. “Thank you.”
“…Hmm!”
Rakiel pretended to clear his throat and covered his heated face. How can you blatantly paint your face with gold like this? Honestly, I didn’t expect it. It was good, but I felt embarrassed and embarrassed.
‘I thought he was trying to complain about something because he suddenly barged in while I was eating breakfast.’
I wondered if they had come to protest. Or, I wondered if he had come to express doubts about future treatment. So I tried hard to make excuses and appeal. It didn’t seem necessary. It seemed like I ended up being misunderstood, which was a good(?) thing.
‘With a noble heart and altruistic kindness… me?’
Absolutely not.
In fact, the exact opposite is true.
Healing the people of the ecliptic? It’s just a painful effort to survive by somehow scraping together the bonus life. Are you calling the princess here to treat her? This is to prevent future great wars and the damage that will result.
In other words, all of these treatment activities are nothing more than a personal and selfish investment for myself. But those actions seemed to look different to the princess.
‘Well, if you see it that way. There is no need to correct the misunderstanding.’
Because that’s how it’s profitable.
Rakiel shrugged his shoulders. As soon as the conclusion was reached, the steel plates covering the entire face were laid down like sidewalk blocks that are replaced at the end of the year.
“Whew. I knew that would happen, so I tried to pretend not to know. “It’s embarrassing.”
“…I didn’t think that was it.”
“Hmm! Anyway! What happened yesterday was something I had to deal with for treatment. I was already prepared. To be honest, I was scared and worried, but I think I was able to do it because I had a stronger desire to do it for the patients.”
“….”
“Well, that’s roughly it.”
“…I think you have a strange feeling.”
“Keuhumhum!”
In any case, it was clear that the princess had come to trust this side completely. It was a great income. Rakiel took advantage of that momentum. From that day on, I started working on breaking down gallstones in earnest. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy was performed every afternoon.
“Shooting?”
“Please come.”
Adeline asked.
Rachiel nodded.
Right after that.
Two foot-!
The princess’s fist fired a self-shot to the right side of her solar plexus. Powerful mana was released. At the same time, Rakiel moved.
With a vague mind technique, he drew in the mana released by the princess. induced. Just as the ghost of Wepta Craft induces Nuclear. Or like throwing a pot of fresh blood into the pool where a great white shark is having sex.
lured to one point.
It made me hit gallstones.
Break it!
“…!”
Each time, Rakiel’s face turned red. But now he doesn’t faint like before. The complexion did not turn pale. It was because I gradually got used to it.
‘town! Whoop! class! gig! Wow!’
I have developed my own knack for holding on.
I held my breath every time a shock wave came. I inflated my stomach with abdominal breathing and raised abdominal pressure as much as possible. Valsalva breathing, used by weightlifters and fitness enthusiasts, was applied. At the same time, the mana circle was wide open.
That itself became special training for him.
Ding dong!
[You are continuously absorbing powerful external mana shocks using the Asurahan Heart technique.]
[In this process, you have acquired the skill of absorbing and neutralizing shocks and accepting them as your own, rather than just ignorantly withstanding the shocks. ]
[This series of processes has become a valuable experiential asset for your astounding mind.]
[The level of your astounding mind has increased.]
A welcome message came while you were working hard to endure the shock waves. Rachiel quickly read the message.
[Skill Name: Asurahan Heart]
[Level: Single Circle Lv.4]
[Absorbs surrounding mana. It is used by processing/amplifying the absorbed mana into a circle around the heart. Whenever the number of circles increases, the amplification rate increases significantly.]
[Mana amplification rate: %]
[HP required for next level up: 1800]
[Current HP: 2500]
‘Oh!’
Is there a greater vitality than this?
[The circle slots you own are also affected by the growth of Asrahan Mind.]
[The storage space of the circle slots is expanded.]
[Slot 1 has been expanded.]
[Maximum capacity of slot 1: 12 liters – 〉 13 liters]
I came to my senses after trying to endure the pain. Thanks to this, I was able to focus more.
Day after day passed. I broke a total of 15 gallstones, one every afternoon. The Asurahan Simbeop has risen to single circle level 6. The capacity of the circle slot has also been expanded to a whopping 15 liters.
It must have been thanks to that.
I have become more accustomed to withstanding the impact of extracorporeal shock waves. The circle became stronger, as if it was training to become more stubborn. The circle slot has become stronger. My abs also got a little tired. Patience also increased. Thanks to this, I no longer faint as easily as before.
“Instead, I was able to endure it like a man without feeling nauseous like this. Oh my god-”
“….”
“Don’t worry. Isn’t it just nausea… “Oh
….”
“No, why does the princess keep looking at you like that… oh-ae-ae-”
“…I was wondering if you could go over to the other side of that nausea.”
“But… I need to check to see if the gallstones have broken down properly…”
“If I just use that Oae liquid one more time, the solar plexus will be healed.”
“….”
“You went in, right? “Nausea.”
“yep.”
“Hehehe.”
“….”
Rachiel managed to suppress the nausea that hit her throat. The princess was half a head taller than herself. Even his physical strength was strong, perhaps thanks to his training in fighting from a young age. When the princess growled in front of me, I had no choice but to be polite(?).
‘Oh, if only I were as good as I was in Korea!’
There was a little bit of pear, but it wasn’t anchovies. Rakiel swallowed his anger and laughed.
“If you keep threatening me like that, I can’t help it.”
“What if I can’t help it?”
“I plan to ruthlessly wield the power of the powerful imperial family.”
“…disgracefully.”
“Well, whatever. The fifteenth gallstone also broke easily. Since the process is going smoothly, I think I can treat all remaining gallstones with just a few more days of treatment.”
“is that so? already?”
“yes.”
Rachiel nodded.
“It is thanks to the princess’s active cooperation. “The shock wave it emits is so heavy and powerful.”
“You mean gallstones break easily?”
“yes. “Even though I often feel the threat of my vitality breaking down as well.”
“And again.” “It pricks my conscience like that.”
“It’s true, right?”
“…write. “I’m sorry.”
“You should just be thankful.”
“When you say thank you, it somehow sounds like you’re asking to repay the favor, right?”
“Because there is nothing free in this world?”
“Then what kind of return will the crown prince be satisfied with?”
“Umm, for example-”
“For example?”
“I hope you don’t start a war against us Magentano. during life.”
I spoke to Adeline with my sincerity. She stopped at those words. I stared blankly in this direction. It was quite blatant, but there was something strange about it. When I met those eyes, my shoulders naturally shrank.
“Why why?”
Why are you staring at me like that? Could it be that what he just said crossed a line somewhere? Adeline did not answer this question. Instead, he only said something even more ambiguous.
“well. “You suddenly said something so unexpected.”
“….”
What is so unexpected?
“Besides, what can I say about someone like the Crown Prince… It’s surprising because it’s my first time.”
“….”
What on earth does it mean?
I couldn’t figure it out. What was certain, however, was that after finishing her ambiguous words, she smiled faintly in this direction.
“Anyway, today’s treatment ends here. Thank you for your hard work today. “Then I’ll see you tomorrow.”
“Ah yes…”
Something like the human heart.
Something like a woman’s heart.
I really don’t know.
I just honestly revealed what I wanted. Why do you look at people with eyes like that and have a strange smile on your face? Why do I subtly look back twice as I turn around and leave the treatment room?
It was confusing. So it was. He just smiled sheepishly. Of course, neither she nor she could have guessed this until now.
Princess Adeline visits this clinic every day for treatment. This person is devoting the entire afternoon treatment time to her. Everyone in the villa is telling strange stories about the two of us. The rumors have become rumors and rumors and are spreading throughout the imperial capital.
Also, I really didn’t know until then that the story would eventually reach the ears of the emperor who was receiving stroke rehabilitation treatment.
