The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 214
Episode 214 People I Want to Protect (1)
“It’s a mass corpse explosion.”
Warlock Cartu. I know what he did. I can’t believe you’re using this method. Is it possible to do something like that while suffering from acute diving sickness caused by a large amount of nitrogen bubbles? On the one hand, I was impressed by his tenacity.
‘I definitely had a cerebral infarction due to a blood clot. ‘This works?’
This is a mental power that goes beyond common sense. If it were a true story, it could be called a monster. I got a little goosebumps.
But now is not the time to just admire.
“Damian. What about him? “Is he dead?”
“no. “I’m still alive.”
The black-haired escort answered and regretted it. Suddenly, I wondered if I had made a mistake. I thought I should have cut off the warlock’s head and ran.
Was it a wrong decision to set aside everything else and rush to check on the prince’s well-being as soon as he remembered that the prince was near the center of the explosion?
Rakiel shook his head.
“Good judgement. “If he had died, things would have been more complicated.”
“…yes?”
“If that were the case, the orders he was preparing would have been delivered all at once. First of all, start with the support. “Let’s go to him.”
“No, Your Highness. “I will take you to a safe place.”
“Nowhere is safe here now.”
Rachiel shook his head resolutely and glanced at Damian.
“The number of undead left on the battlefield exceeds 2,000. “If that number explodes and amplifies all at once, how powerful will it be?”
“That…”
“If it were an open area, the killing radius would be several kilometers. Not only Kranos’ castle walls but also half of the city will be blown away with ease. So there is only one conclusion. No matter how hard you try to escape, you won’t be able to escape the killing radius in time.”
That is the correct answer.
To be honest, right now, the entire undead army could explode in a volley with power comparable to that of a tactical nuclear weapon. Every time I thought of that thought, I felt like my hair stood on end.
So run away?
impossible.
If you try to run away clumsily, you will surely die. This applies not only to the citizens of Kranos but also to everyone on the battlefield. Of course, I am no exception.
‘Immediate death from death, immediate death from death.’
If you live to die, you will live. If you want to live, you will die.
Rakiel suddenly remembered Admiral Yi Sun-sin’s famous saying. I also realized that this is exactly the situation we are in now. There is no way to be safe from an explosion. Running away is a sure way to die. So what’s left?
“The warlock’s order must be canceled. There is no time. hurry.”
“…All right.”
Damian realized what he meant. Carried the crown prince. I ran with all my might towards the place where the warlock was.
Meanwhile, the black-haired escort could feel it.
‘Your Majesty is shaking a lot.’
The body of the crown prince, who was leaning on his back while being carried on his back, was trembling. mistaken? No, I was sure. The prince’s body, so light and dry, was clearly trembling. The two hands holding his shoulders. Even the chest against the back. Even the beating heart was like that.
Why? Because of the shock from the explosion earlier? Maybe so. I’m sure other people would probably think that’s the case.
But I… I don’t know.
‘Unexpectedly, you suffered little physical shock. I guess it’s thanks to the special forces. His Majesty the Crown Prince is just… trembling with fear right now.’
How scared can a person be to tremble like this? That’s why I didn’t understand. Because the prince chose to run to the warlock instead of running away. Even so, not a single expression or voice was disturbed.
‘You tremble with fear. You don’t lose your facial expression. ‘Which one is the real you?’
Maybe both.
That may be why the crown prince is, after all, an ordinary person but also a special being.
“….”
Damian felt it again. Realized. All along, he had been misunderstanding the crown prince.
This man was not just a man with strange medical skills and behavior. He was a person who worked hard. Because it’s normal. Because I’m an ordinary person. So, he was a person who worked harder, used more energy, and struggled to appear calm on the outside.
It’s still the same now.
I’m scared like everyone else. After experiencing the shock of an explosion that almost killed me, I couldn’t hide it and my whole body was shaking. Nevertheless, he pretends to be okay and runs towards the warlock. Perhaps you are jumping into the most dangerous place.
why?
why?
‘Because he’s the crown prince?’
Is it the sense of responsibility that comes with status that is pushing this person’s back? I didn’t know until that point. I couldn’t ask questions or get answers.
This was because they had already arrived at a place where warlocks were scattered.
“…Okay.”
Rachiel quickly got off Damien’s back. At that moment, the shock of the explosion caused the remaining muscles in my entire body to scream. It was natural. Even if you are involved in a minor traffic accident or rear-end collision, the human body is prone to pain.
But now was no time to worry about trivial muscle pain.
‘I don’t want to die.’
I want to live.
Must live.
I haven’t worked hard all this time just to die because I got caught up in the trickery of a shady warlock. It would be so unfair to die like that. I will definitely survive. So, I will enjoy the ultra-luxurious premium Mansour royal life for the rest of my life.
‘therefore!’
I ran to the warlock. I first looked at his condition. My eyes were out of focus. It looked limp, like a fish that had capsized and died. I could tell just by looking at him that he wasn’t very happy.
But it didn’t matter.
‘Just don’t die right away.’
…Kwaaaang-!
In some place on the battlefield, a group of zombies exploded again. Even though the explosion was from quite a distance away, the shock wave rushed through and tore through hair and clothing without hesitation. Is it because of my almost-death experience earlier? My shoulders were shaking without me realizing it.
I was able to realize it again.
Warlock Cartu.
This guy shouldn’t die right now.
The moment it dies, the self-destruct command it is preparing will be transmitted to all undead on the battlefield at once. Then the result would be a terrible explosion whose power could not be estimated.
“….”
Let’s focus. Let’s shake off the goosebumps and focus first.
‘Acupoint scanning.’
Kiiiiing-!
It started with acupuncture point scanning. We examined the inside of Cartu’s body. Of course, it was not a normal health checkup scan. There was something else I was looking for. I was able to find it quickly.
‘found. The mana of black magic that he is condensing.’
Between the eyebrows.
A small, black lump of mana was seen condensed between the eyebrows. It was not the normal form of mana residing in the body’s acupuncture points. I’ve seen it before. The same form of mana that a warlock implanted in a zombie’s body when performing a procedure to restore the zombie’s sanity.
It was a sphere of black magic.
Rachiel was able to immediately understand the role the sphere was currently playing.
‘I guess this is some kind of signal transmitting device.’
Just as an internet router sends out Wi-Fi signals, the sphere of black magic created between the guy’s eyes is sending out self-destruct commands to the zombies.
It was a moment when I thought…
Tsk…!
The black sphere condensed between Cartu’s eyes trembled slightly. A small stream of mana flew into the air. Immediately after that…
Tukwaahak-!
“…!”
Another group explosion occurred on one side of the battlefield. What followed were screams and shouts coming from that direction.
At the same time, Rachiel realized.
‘My guess was right. ‘I can do it.’
He stretched out his hand. He pointed at Cartu’s eyebrows. A possibility that came to mind when I asked Damian to come here earlier. Perhaps the only solution to this situation. The Asurahan Mind Act was activated.
Kiiiiing-!
The two mana circles made a violent reverse rotation. It drew in external mana with its unique suction power. The target was a sphere of black magic condensed between Cartu’s eyebrows. It wasn’t difficult. Because the sphere of black magic is also made of mana.
‘So… this is confiscated.’
Simple.
All you have to do is steal the sphere of black magic that he has condensed. This side just swallows it up. After that, just tear it into pieces as if you were digesting it and add it to the mana in your body. The scattered pieces of mana will no longer perform their previous roles.
‘Carefully….’
Kiiing-!
Rachiel concentrated more. Carefully, like handling a bomb. Be careful, like when eating boiling maesaengi porridge. I approached the sphere of black magic. pulled it It wasn’t as difficult as I thought. The sphere responded quickly.
Tsutsut…! Chutz!
‘do!’
I knew it.
A smile appeared on Rachiel’s lips. From then on it was easy. Surprisingly, the sphere escaped Cartu’s gaze, guided by the faint spirit’s guidance, without much resistance. It came in through this finger. It was carried through the wrist, forearm and shoulder into a circle that was rotating in reverse.
At the same time, it felt natural to see the structure and arrangement of the black magic spheres in the circle. It was a chunk of mana containing just one command, a simpler arrangement than expected.
But the content of that simple command…
– Explode.
It was…
‘Tsk.’
Rakiel clicked his tongue. Since it was so simple, I thought that I had somehow succeeded in manifesting magic even while wandering around the edge of death.
But now is not the time to just admire. For now, I was able to swallow it without any trouble. So now it is time to extinguish it and completely dissolve it.
Kiiiiing-!
Rakiel alternated the rotation of the two circles. One in the forward direction and one in the reverse direction. The sphere of black magic was pushed into the rotation of the two crossed circles. It felt like throwing an old cabinet into a vigorous shredder.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!
The reaction was immediate. In the violent rotation of the two circles, the sphere of black magic began to split apart. Everything went smoothly. Until you realize that the sphere is immediately trying to escape.
‘uh?’
Rachiel was shocked.
The sphere of black magic that seemed to be split between the two circles immediately began to run wild. Out of control and flow of the circle.
“…Ugh!”
I tried to hold him, but it was too late. The sphere moved through the bloodstream in an instant. Out of the circle, through the shoulder, forearm, and wrist.
The meaning was clear.
‘I’m trying to get back to Cartu.’
As soon as I realized it, I reversed the two circles again. As before, it demonstrated attractive power. But it was no use. The escape velocity of the sphere exceeded the suction force. I realized this with goosebumps. I can’t hold on to it. miss it It’s a failure.
‘crazy.’
I became anxious.
If the sphere returns to Cartu like this, the self-destruction process cannot be stopped. Everyone dies. I don’t like that. So you have to do something.
Awareness and response occurred simultaneously.
A split second as the sphere passes through your palm and heads towards your fingers. At that moment, Rakiel reacted reflexively and quickly. It has gained the attractive power of a faint mind. Instead, the momentum of the mind and law was sharpened. Like a needle. I stabbed the sphere.
…Kwajak!
Is it because it was briefly ground in the double circle shredder earlier? Cracks appeared on the weakened surface of the sphere. A very small amount of this mana was pushed into it. For what? The purpose was to somehow change the self-destruct command contained in the sphere.
‘please. God of randomness.’
If there is such a God, please grant my wish now.
Rakiel did the best he could with a heart of earnest hope. And finally I lost sight of the sphere. The sphere flowed to the index finger. It went beyond the tip of my finger. It was shot at Cartu. It got stuck between the guy’s eyes. At the same time, Cartu’s eyes turned completely white.
“…Keueuuu.”
Cartu is shaking and foaming at the mouth. The last spark of life was struggling. As if in a struggle, the sphere lodged between the man’s eyes suddenly emitted an eerie light.
Fahaha!
Thousands of commands were sent at once. Sprayed on all zombies on the battlefield.
“Guruk?”
“…Gwooeok?”
A total of 2,500 zombies shook their shoulders in shock. Everyone obeyed the orders they had just received. The orders they received. A command that Rakiel desperately altered. The changed content is…
– ‘Come to me’ and self-destruct.
“Guruk!”
All 2,500 zombies turned their heads. Their eyes were focused on Cartu.
