The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 237
Episode 237 The proof shot carries a reward (2)
“Crown Prince Raquiel Adria Magentano meets His Majesty the Emperor, the rightful ruler of this land. “Also, I would like to request access to the upper section of the Imperial Repository as a reward for winning a bet with Your Majesty here today.”
I screamed desperately.
There was no need to say anything else. No, you shouldn’t. If you mix in unnecessary words, it’s easy to get caught up in the emperor’s pace. Emperor, that gentleman is that kind of person. So, if you want to ask for something, you have to get it out there first.
Isn’t this a sure-fire victory?
‘done.’
Rakiel internally clenched his fists. I glanced at the emperor’s gaze. Thanks to you, I was able to feel it. The emperor’s body shook slightly. My eyebrows twitch. He looked embarrassed. It could also be observed through acupoint scanning.
Kiiiiing-!
In the field of view with acupuncture point scanning activated. I could clearly see the emperor’s energy and blood flowing in rapid rhythm of 16 beats. I guess it’s because I was deeply embarrassed by the demands made by this party.
However, the emperor’s expression was still calm, with a poker face.
“her. It is a ticket to view the upper section of the Imperial Remarks. I have a burden to ask. “Prince, did you ever entrust that authority to me?”
“I have never left it to you.”
“But why do you demand that right so boldly?”
“It’s because I think I have the right to demand that right.”
“What was the basis?”
“Didn’t I already tell you?”
“Are you asking for compensation for winning a bet with Jim?”
“Yes, I do, Your Majesty.”
Rakiel lowered his head.
Actually, it was a natural story.
It was a bet with no one else but with the emperor. He said he would obtain an official declaration of support from the majority of members of the House of Nobles within three months. What was the emperor’s reaction at the time?
“At the time, His Majesty snorted as if he was convinced that I would not be able to accomplish the task. It seemed like you already considered it a winning bet. But as you can see, I have made something that seemed ridiculously impossible into reality.”
“So, didn’t Jim send you a letter expressing his congratulations? “Have you not received it yet?”
“I have received your letter well.”
“But what’s the problem?”
“The problem is that we only received a letter.”
“Are you saying I shouldn’t just wipe my mouth with words of praise and be done with it?”
“That is so, Your Majesty.”
“That’s blatant.”
“I came running after a month because I was worried that if I didn’t come out like this, His Majesty would eventually not understand my feelings.”
“To the point of being shameless.”
“I apologize, Your Majesty.”
“Are you sincerely sorry?”
“I apologize for that too, Your Majesty.”
“under.”
The emperor suppressed a laugh.
In fact, these days, I have been immersed in joy every day. It was thanks to the news of the villa being delivered every day.
Yesterday, a noble so-and-so visited the annex oriental medicine clinic. Also, this morning, a nobleman left the hospital and hung a framed photo with a proof shot in the lobby of the villa. In the afternoon, several nobles who were not particularly sick gathered at the villa, making excuses for colds. And so on and so forth.
My father’s smile came out one after another as he watched the reports posted almost in real time by informants planted in the villa. Of course, he maintained a solemn poker face in front of his subjects, but even then, he could not stop the faint twitching of his left and right nostrils.
I was happy every time I heard it.
It was thrilling every time I encountered it.
It felt refreshing, as if a tooth that had been suffering for a long time had suddenly fallen out.
There was no other reason.
‘In the meantime, this guy’s position was very unstable. The floor he was standing on was called the Crown Prince, but in reality, the floor was so thin that it was like he was barely standing on thin ice.’
It was like that.
His eldest son, Crown Prince Rachiel. His position was not solid. It was because of the 20 years of fighting the disease since I was young.
Although the perception has changed quite a bit in recent years, many people still put a question mark on the crown prince’s future. It was because of concerns that his health might deteriorate again at any time.
This tendency was especially strong among upper-ranking nobles. Because no one is as sensitive to political tightrope walking as they are. If you happen to be too hasty in lining up for the crown prince, your position will also diminish if the crown prince’s health worsens.
‘The majority of nobles were still keeping their distance from this guy for fear of such a situation. But…’
This guy boasted that he would try to change that. I was heartbroken that I could accomplish that in just three months.
To be honest, I didn’t even pray. Recently, this guy has shown a series of amazing achievements, but I thought it was too much to go that far.
But even so, I still harbored a strange sense of anticipation. It was a strange feeling of anticipation that maybe this guy would come back again this time.
The result was a huge success. I never thought I could do it to this extent. The more I thought about it, the more I felt like crying.
So it was.
I sent a letter to the guy. I deliberately left out the content. Through that, I tested this guy again.
The result was also a huge success.
‘But I never thought you’d come running to see me as soon as you received the letter. Hehehe. Heh heh!’
A person who becomes a ruler should be like this. The moment you see all the intangible assets and opportunities that come your way, you must act quickly. You have to grab it. Even if you miss it, you have to reach out to grab it.
It was the emperor who expected something like that from Rachiel. So, he sent a letter that contained nothing but compliments. So, I was extremely happy and happy when I saw Rakiel running in such a hurry today.
Happiness was also evident in his voice as he spoke to Rachiel.
“okay. The crown prince who is so shameless and reckless and doesn’t even know the situation. To summarize, are you saying that you are going to demand compensation from Jim that was not even discussed at the time you proposed the bet?”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“Tsk tsk, you really have a thick face. “I wonder who Daejoint resembles this?”
“I believe you know, Your Majesty.”
“Until you have no manners.”
“However, I believe my request is not unreasonable, Your Majesty.”
“How dare you make such a promise?”
“Isn’t your Majesty expecting me to come to you like this?”
“That’s a long line of nonsense.”
“But why have you been smiling since a little while ago?”
“It’s a laugh that comes out because it’s so absurd. Don’t you recognize these things?”
“In my eyes, I can only see your benevolent Majesty being pleased with the crown prince’s appropriate request.”
“How dare you try to confuse my eyes and ears with flattery.”
“If my honest feelings came across as coaxing, that is also my responsibility and my shortcomings. I truly apologize, Your Majesty.”
“…her.”
happy.
I’m so happy that I want to do somersaults right now.
The emperor tried to pull back the corners of his mouth and beard that were trying to twitch carelessly. Because it is both frivolous and foolish to easily show one’s happiness in front of one’s successor.
He spoke in a somewhat stern voice.
“I refuse the crown prince’s request.”
“yes?”
“Instead, I specifically order that the crown prince, in accordance with my orders, inspect the upper section of the imperial archives from now until midnight and freely acquire only one item.”
“…Isn’t that what it is?”
“It’s completely different.”
“Where on earth…”
“Did Jim seem like an easy person who would listen to your requests? Don’t be mistaken. “This is just my order.”
“Ah yes…”
“If you do that, just go away. “Don’t disturb Jim’s eyes and ears anymore.”
“I am devastated, Your Majesty.”
“I told you to go away.”
“I follow your orders, Your Majesty.”
Rachiel retreated.
So the emperor was left alone in the throne room. Thanks to this, the Emperor’s joyous dance time, which was secretly shaken from then on, has remained a secret of history that no one knows about.

“Your Highness, honestly, I’m a little curious.”
“what?”
Finally, with the emperor’s permission, they were on their way to the Imperial Palace. Damian, who was accompanying me as an escort, expressed doubt.
“I understand that Your Majesty won the bet with His Majesty and that you want to receive a certain reward… but why did you specifically mention the Imperial Palace Secretariat?”
“aha. “I think there’s something I took a picture of?”
“yes. “It looks just like that, Your Highness.”
“That’s correct.”
Rachiel nodded. There was something I was aiming for. Since when? Since recently. To be more precise, it was after receiving a declaration of support from a high-ranking nobleman who was in charge of managing the palace archives.
“You know he’s Count Librano, right?”
“Yes, I know. “He was a nobleman who suffered more from gout than others, right?”
“uh. The pain was particularly severe. Even if I touched my weak hand, it still felt pain subtly. Anyway, while he was taking a proof shot, he looked at my ice cap and let me know. “The weapon that matches my ice cap is stored in the upper section of the imperial palace.”
“You mean the weapon that matches the ice cap?”
“uh.”
It was true.
It was also the first thing I learned.
According to what Count Librano told us, the ice cap and its weapon only show their true power when they are paired together. Of course, I said there were strict usage conditions, but I was confident of that. Because ice caps were not easy to use in the first place.
“Anyway, let’s go in.”
The two went through the formalities at the entrance to Vigo. Unlike last time, where I felt disappointed by only entering the lower level area, this time I was able to be guided to the upper level area.
The structure of the upper level was also similar to that of the lower level.
‘It’s just a mart, a mart.’
There were numerous shelves divided into categories in a large space. However, unlike the last time she wandered around the lower level area, this time Rakiel was able to easily find the exact location of the item she was looking for.
‘I said the display number was JA-0928. ‘Okay, this way.’
I was able to immediately pinpoint the location of the display stand by looking at the map provided at the entrance. went there Indeed, the item I was looking for was displayed exactly. I finally found it. A magical set of weapons made to pair with the ice cap.
There was this instruction written in front of it.
[Name: Fountain Pen]
[Category: Swords]
[Obtainer: Unknown]
[Category Level: Advanced]
[Use: When the user injects mana, the core of the body converts the mana and emits and sprays flaming ink through the pen tip. ]
[Special Feature: If the user’s mana control ability is extremely delicate, the temperature of the erupting flame ink can be controlled to a large extent.]
Rakiel’s eyes sparkled with greed after reading the notice.
‘found. ‘My oriental medicine thermal compress therapy device.’
