The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 150

Episode 150 Uninvited Guest (2)

Glowing chandelier.

A smile that shines even brighter underneath.

A grand banquet was held at the second prince’s palace.

The hearts of many people invited to the main hall were pounding. Princesses from kingdoms, principalities, and small countries all over the continent gathered together. Among them, there was a lady from a great noble family who told her to give up.

They were all children who had gone through a rigorous race. Journeys range from as short as a few hundred kilometers to as long as over a thousand kilometers. The women who succeeded in making the cut of 50 people on a first-come, first-served basis, which was so intense, were filled with pride in their eyes.

At the same time, they were looking forward to it.

‘What kind of person is the Crown Prince of Magentano?’

I was curious.

I heard the rumor early on.

The crown prince was said to have been sickly since he was born. The crown prince grew up suffering from various chronic illnesses and even heard rumors that there was no hope for him.

So no one had paid any attention to the crown prince until now. The same was true for the ladies gathered here. They treated him like a person who would die soon. That was certainly the case until a shocking rumor spread some time ago.

‘You appeared on the battlefield and subdued the Sword Master. Then the rumors that had been spreading about him being sick were all fake. Then, isn’t the crown prince… actually a humble person who has deliberately kept his abilities hidden?’

‘Recently I heard that he opened a hospital in the villa and takes care of the sick for free without discrimination… I think he is probably a caring person.’

‘Before I came here, I thought it was a little strange why the banquet was being held in the second prince’s palace instead of the detached palace… but now that I’ve come, I understand. The crown prince wanted the patients staying at the villa to rest comfortably. ‘How could you be so considerate?’

…and so on and so forth. In each person’s mind, the whirlwind of delusions unfolded in 8K video.

While waiting for the crown prince’s entrance, in the minds of the people gathered in the main hall, crown prince Raquiel Adria Magentano was quickly assembled into the icon of the perfect man, possessed of bravery, kindness, and consideration as the best hot guy on earth.

Then there was a moment.

The orchestra’s gentle performance stopped.

“We would like to thank those who have gathered here and inform you that His Highness Raquiel Adria Magentano, Crown Prince of the Empire, has entered.”

The courteous guidance of the 2nd Prince’s Chamberlain deeply pierced everyone’s cochlea. Afterwards, the band resumed playing. A powerful, majestic, and majestic melody proudly covered the main hall. The women’s two atriums and two ventricles were shaken to the rhythm of thud-deok-deok-deok-deok.

Soon the door opened.

The women’s eyes sparkled like a supernova searchlight. All eyes were focused on the open door. Finally, the hero of the day appeared.

Holding a cane, with a pale face and shaky legs….

“Keuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu of…”

…”

The moment a moan like an old man’s voice came out of Rachiel’s mouth. The moment he took his first shaky steps onto the red carpet while holding a cane.

Everyone fell silent.

But Rakiel didn’t care.

“Oh my gosh.”

Tap, tap.

I walked with difficulty, my weak body shaking. The stride length was only about 10 centimeters. It took a long time to even walk that far. It was a precarious walk, as if he were a 90-year-old man and would collapse at any moment without a cane.

On the other hand, the music filling the main hall was still magnificent. A famous song that captures the majesty of a ruler and the fascinating boldness of a young powerful man was trying to pierce my heart… but it all bounced out of my eardrums.

It was because of Rachiel’s appearance.

‘What is that?’

All the ladies, princesses from various countries and ladies from great noble families, thought with one mind. I think something is wrong with this. It seems like there was some trickery on the part of the organizers.

So… Crown Prince Rachiel’s appearance was so shocking!

‘cane?’

‘Can’t I walk without that?’

‘Why are you walking like that? Why is your face like that?’

‘The crown prince… right?’

‘really?’

A million question marks arose in everyone’s mind. The women’s hearts, which had been pounding with anticipation, entered a state of full-blown cardiac arrest.

It had to be that way.

“Kuh huh huh? Oh my, my legs… gasp.”

Rakiel stopped walking just 3 meters on the red carpet. I straightened my back and took a hard breath. It was a gesture like a grandfather who went for a walk to a mineral spring in the back of the neighborhood.

His appearance was even more spectacular.

The silver hair was dull and lacked even shine. Both cheeks were hollow and sunken. The eye area was added. Dark circles as black as a skull took over. His complexion was pale enough to be suitable for lying in a coffin right now. No, not a single ounce of life was visible at all.

Moreover, what about the wrists that are glimpsed through the extravagant clothes? There was nothing but bones and skin. Even his back was already bent and his knees were shaking like the paws of a Chihuahua thrown into a perpetual snow mountain!

‘what. ‘What is that really?’

‘This… isn’t a dream?’

‘You think I went through all that trouble and came this far just to be liked by someone like that?’

‘…Are you kidding me?’

The bean pods that had been covering Lady 50’s eyes were completely removed with a single cue. Everyone’s shoulders were shaking without realizing it, as if they had been baptized with cold water. Otherwise, the crown prince’s appearance was too severe. I almost thought this was a scam.

Thanks to you, what about Rachiel?

I smiled inwardly.

‘good. Operation successful!’

A faint smile that no one could recognize appeared at the corner of Rachiel’s mouth as she deliberately dropped her legs. The extremely hateful gaze directed at oneself in real time. Seeing that, I was convinced that today’s disguise was very successful(?).

‘of course. ‘Because this is the work of the court wizard Sir Janetis!’

Was it before the banquet started?

I called Sir Janetis. I received the one-day disguise magic that I had requested in advance. Thanks to this, I was able to have a much poorer appearance than my original appearance. The maids in the 2nd Prince’s Palace received haggard makeup. Does that include acting that you put your whole heart and soul into?

A perfect sick man cosplay has become possible.

‘Hehehe. Be disappointed. Look at me like that and be disappointed!’

Rakiel cheered(?) on the ladies and walked forward, pretending to have difficulty. Then, I deliberately twisted my cane.

“Keu… Huh?”

Tilt!

I fell because I used the wrong cane!

At the same time, he sent a quick sideways glance. Damian saw through that glance and stretched out his hand at the right time. He caught me as I fell.

“Hehehe, thank you.”

From then on, I walked with Damian supporting me, almost as if I was carrying him on my back. With still confident and magnificent music in the background. That’s why it looks even more poor and shabby.

Thanks to this, the pouring gaze of the ladies became even colder. When I looked at their distressed eyes, I felt a mixture of bitterness and satisfaction, like half and half spicy noodles.

‘Well, I’ve gone on blind dates and received quite a few looks of disappointment like that.’

be used to.

It doesn’t hurt at all.

So….

‘Sigh.’

Rachiel tightly blocked the tear ducts that were about to start working. He then cleared his throat as he looked around the entire main hall, which was enveloped in silence of great astonishment.

“Hmm, hmm!”

Now that the step that shocked everyone has been successful? I guess I should give them hope for a turnaround.

He said, recalling his plan.

“Nice to meet you. The host of today’s banquet… Cool look! “This is Raquiel Adria Magentano.”

“….”

“Cool look! Cough! First of all, thank you to everyone who attended today’s banquet and graced this occasion… Cough! Keck! “I would like to express my gratitude and introduce to you the person I am grateful to who graciously provided the space so that the banquet could be held here.”

This is real.

It’s important from now on.

Rachiel applied saliva to her tongue.

“I introduce you to Theodore Palermo Magentano, my proud relative and the second prince of the Magentano royal family.”

He pointed to the entrance to the banquet hall.

The orchestra began to play.

Everyone’s annoyed eyes turned to the entrance. Soon, the second prince appeared on the red carpet. At that moment, the sound of gasping could be heard from all over the banquet hall.

Jeopuk Jeok….

A proud height of over 180 centimeters.

A stocky physique built through exercise.

Shining eyes and a beautiful face.

Theodore, with his devoted appearance and aura, walked down the red carpet with a confident step. He naturally cast a calm gaze towards everyone in the hall. In the meantime, our eyes met for a moment. An expression of regret and gratitude appeared in the guy’s eyes for a moment and then disappeared.

“….”

Okay, cheer up, you idiot.

Rachiel smiled inwardly and looked around the banquet hall. I was able to realize it right away. The fact that all the ladies’ eyes turned into hearts as they looked at the second prince on the red carpet.

‘haha. ‘Hehehe.’

Operation successful.

There was no one looking this way anymore. Everyone’s eyes suddenly became more passionate and were focused on the second prince. It was natural. The more he stands side by side, the more he will stand out. Everyone’s calculators are going crazy.

‘I guess they concluded that there would be no future for me because of how I looked today.’

Who would think that he is healthy when he sees his body flopping around so weakly? Everyone probably thought that this team’s performance in Amboise was an exaggerated rumor or false information.

‘Besides, he probably judged that I wouldn’t have long to live.’

Then naturally?

Attention is focused on the 2nd prince. That’s normal. It will be calculated that if this side falls, the second prince will take the next throne.

‘Good.’ ‘Just right.’

I deliberately designed the game to elicit that kind of reaction. The situation was set up so that the 2nd prince looked even brighter compared to this one. The trick worked. It felt very rewarding.

‘Then I’ll try to get out properly.’

You can’t mess around here. Just as the person who arranged the blind date must fall in love with perfect timing, if you leave the place, the ladies who are flocking to the second prince can become bolder and less oblivious. History(?) can come true.

‘I need a moment.’

Rachiel looked at Damian. Damian frowned slightly.

‘Where are you going?’

‘To the toilet. ‘Follow me?’

‘yes.’

‘Arthur. ‘I’m ordering a drink for myself.’

‘…All right. ‘Let’s go.’

He quietly left, leaving the guy behind. It didn’t go far. I went out to the terrace on one side of the banquet hall.

“Whoa.”

After being in the noisy interior, I came to my senses when I breathed in the cool air on the terrace. The night air, which had become quite chilly, was refreshing for the first time in a while. Now that I think about it, when was the last time I had time to relax alone like this?

‘I’ve been out of my mind for the past three months.’

It was a really busy three months, trying to get the oriental medicine clinic at the villa, which had been neglected since returning from Amboise, back to normal operation, while supervising the second prince’s diet and preparing for the banquet. Thanks to this, I couldn’t remember the last time I looked up at the night sky this leisurely.

And have you ever had the experience of someone holding a dagger to the back of my neck like this?

“Shh. quietly.”

“….”

A cool sensation suddenly touches my neck. A voice even colder than that.

Rachiel stopped moving. I just rolled my eyes and checked the side. There was a woman with pointy ears that I had never seen before. She was holding a dagger to the back of his neck.

‘What is this again?’

Could it be an elf?

But why is the elf pointing a dagger at me? It was absurd.

I wanted to question whether the fact that something like this happened in the middle of the banquet, when I came out to the terrace to get some fresh air, and that something like this happened in the middle of the second prince’s palace, which boasts tight security, was a humanly contrived cliché.

However, regardless of their complaints, the elf woman continued to question me with an emotionless look, as if she was ready to cut me with a dagger.

“Answer honestly, young human. “Have you started a fire recently?”

“yes? “Recently?”

“No rebuttals are allowed. “Just answer me.”

“….”

gulp.

I started drooling without even realizing it. I guess it’s not a joke. So I was worried. Recently? I? Have you ever started a fire? After a moment of deliberation, I came up with an answer.

“Not recently?”

“lie.”

Her eyes became even bloodier.

“Recently. So, didn’t you set fire to the forest where Apyrus’s nest was about six months ago?”

“…yes?”

That’s recent?

No, when on earth is that talking about?

Rakiel was embarrassed and asked.
