The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 27

Episode 27 True Education (3)

Push!

A poisonous capsule exploded in my mouth.

Kusman’s eyes widened in astonishment.

‘…Kah gasp!’

It can’t be like this.

It shouldn’t be like this.

His urgent gaze looked upward. Rachiel’s face was there. Kusman’s eyes asked.

‘how? no way?’

Did they really see through their secret strategy in advance? Is that why he reached out and covered his mouth as if he knew everything about their plan?

“…coup! “Kuhup!”

My tongue tingled. It burned like it was on fire. The burning sensation soon turned into a heavy pain that felt like hitting with a hammer.

My tongue became hard. The feeling inside my mouth disappeared. My lips became stiff and saliva was dripping. Even my facial muscles twitched without me even asking.

‘shit! Shit!’

I got goosebumps.

Poison bullets were his specialty. He knew the power of poison bombs better than anyone else.

Koosman acknowledged the situation.

Such a terrible poison bomb exploded in my mouth. What if I just let go and remain blank like this? You will lose consciousness within 3 minutes. And you will die within 30 minutes. This means that you have 3 minutes to do something on your own to survive.

And fortunately for me, I had an antidote to poison bombs that I carried with me for emergencies.

‘quickly…!’

I moved my trembling hands.

I put my hand into my vest pocket. He tried to take out the antidote, his only lifeline.

But it was that moment.

Tup!

A hand reached out from nowhere. I grabbed his wrist and blocked him.

‘…Huh?’

We need to get the antidote!

Koosman tried to shake off his grip. But I had no strength in my arms. The situation got worse. Another hand reached out. This time it slipped into his vest pocket. And… he took out the antidote bottle as if he was taking his own belongings!

‘uh?’

Kusman’s heart is pounding.

His gaze was endlessly focused on the antidote. The antidote was taken away from us by someone else’s hand. Going up. Getting further away. Continue diagonally. While going up.

It stopped in front of someone’s face.

It was Rakiel’s face.

But Rachiel’s mouth was open.

‘uh? ‘Huh?’

While Kusman said, “Uh-huh.”

Rachiel took the antidote bottle to her open mouth. Looking straight into this person’s eyes. As if to show off.

Bong!

He opened the bottle of antidote.

I just poured it into my mouth.

I swallowed it in one gulp without even having time to stop myself!

‘No way!’

Koosman screamed. I struggled to swear with my stiff lips.

‘You son of a bitch! ‘You damn devil!’

The only hope.

The rope of life.

It disappeared into that guy’s stomach.

There is no longer any hope of survival.

Koosman struggled in despair. I collapsed to the floor, feeling my face and neck go numb. His mouth was barely open, foaming at the mouth, full of despair.

Raquiel frowned as he looked at that figure.

‘Wow, this is really useful.’

The antidote was much more serious than I imagined. As a former oriental medical doctor, I pride myself on having experienced quite a few bitter tastes, but my face didn’t straighten up right after I swallowed it. It felt like my tongue was turning into the sole of my foot.

But it didn’t spit out the antidote.

To further tease Kusman, who is losing his mind? Or to instill a greater sense of despair in Koosman?

Not all.

There was a reason and purpose for him deliberately taking the antidote.

‘I need to use my skills to claim medical expenses by giving me a bottle and medicine.’

Only then can you obtain the bonus life wisely. That’s why I took the antidote and took it. This was thanks to knowing Kusman’s sneak attack method from the beginning.

‘Kusman used that technique three or four times in his novels as well.’

A poisonous bullet that is worn in the mouth like a molar. A sneak attack that spits it out and explodes it by surprise.

I knew it from the beginning.

There is also the fact that Kusman was attacked by a guard and was intentionally hit and fell. The fact that, after reassuring the other person like that, he was preparing to spit out poisonous bombs.

Thanks to that, I was able to stop the guy’s mouth with good timing. It caused a poison bomb to explode in my mouth.

‘And they took the antidote.’

Do not let Kusman take the antidote on his own. Then, since Kusman self-treated the patient, he will not be able to claim medical expenses.

Of course, you don’t get bonus life.

But what if you take the antidote from Kusman and give it to him?

‘That also makes the calculations ambiguous.’

Rakiel shook his head inwardly. That method would also make it difficult for him to be recognized as having provided ‘medical treatment’ to Koosman.

‘Because the person who created the antidote is Kusman. Because I am simply feeding the antidote that Kusman created. In other words, there is a low probability that it will be recognized as the medical treatment I performed.’

You probably won’t be able to use medical billing.

Bonus life too?

Of course you can’t get it.

That was so disappointing.

So he took Kusman’s antidote and ate it. And I saved it in the previously empty circle slot.

[Storage of slot 1 has been completed.]

[Status of slot 1]

[Maximum capacity: 10 liters]

[Current storage capacity: 0.01 liters]

A circle slot full of bitter antidotes. When I saw that, I immediately felt reassured.

‘Well then, let’s do it.’

Rakiel looked at the fallen Kusman. He was biting a lot of crab foam and his eyes were turning white. If I left it like this, I probably wouldn’t be able to last even half an hour.

‘you can do it.’

The table was set. Now it’s time to save this guy and get bonus life. Rakiel flipped Kusman’s fallen body over like a scab.

His hands moved quickly.

I looked at the back of the guy lying down.

Between both shoulder blades. Below the spinous process of the 5th thoracic vertebra. A point was measured 1.5 cun on each side of the spine.

The heart blood was there. I put all my strength into it and pressed it with the tip of my thumb.

“…Pugaaaaaaaaaa!”

Kusman, who was unconscious, had his back bent like a bow. He let out a magnificent scream, spitting out the crab foam that was filling his mouth like a breath.

Rachiel smiled happily.

‘You got it right.’

When I checked the blood transfusion, it was really crazy. In other words, it means that the evil energy coming from the heart has gathered in the heart blood.

‘It’s exactly the same as the novel. It is said that the poison used by Kusman not only paralyzes the face and nerves, but also causes great damage to the heart. The heartbeat gradually becomes irregular and then stops.’

In other words, it was believed that his poisonous bullets had ingredients that harmed the heart. Therefore, we pointed out the deep blood vessel where the turbid energy of the heart mainly accumulates.

The diagnosis was successful.

‘Then now add the antidote.’

[The substance stored in the circle slot is released.]

Kiiiiing!

The circle began to rotate vigorously.

The antidote stored in the slot was compressed. The amplified antidote ingredients were loaded into Mana. From the heart to the shoulders to the forearms to the fingertips. With Kusman’s deep blood transfusion, he was slowly but surely pushed back.

“…that! Pugh!”

Kusman’s whole body fell.

The antidote ingredients we sent steadily entered his deep bloodstream. It was from then on. Rakiel could vaguely feel through his faint intellect how the antidote was spreading through his body.

At first, the antidote ingredients came together using deep blood transfusion as a well. Soon, it started moving due to strong acupressure from this side.

It started from a deep blood transfusion and spread to the center of the torso. Caress the diaphragm there and go to the small intestine. The branches branched again and continued upward. It seeped into my throat and both eyes. The rest passed through the lungs. It flowed into the deepest part of my armpit.

There was Geukcheonhyeol (極泉穴), which is called the uppermost acupoint of the Susoum Sutra (手少陰心經).

The antidote seeped into the extreme heavenly blood.

It spread along the hydrogen phonoscope.

Passing through the small sea area of the elbow. It passes through the negative acupoint of the wrist and the sinmun acupuncture point. I hit the small area on the inside of my palm hard.

The shock extended widely throughout Koosman’s body. Like an echo. I shouted and came back. It eventually settled in the heart and spread along the blood vessels of the entire body.

At the same time, Kusman’s struggles subsided. The face became extremely calm.

‘He’s not dead, right?’

I quickly checked his breathing. Fortunately, he was breathing comfortably.

It was that moment.

Finally, the message I had been waiting for came to mind.

Ding dong!

[You successfully treated patient: Kusman by using an appropriate antidote. He is free from serious symptoms of poisoning, and if he takes adequate rest, he will be completely cured without any significant aftereffects.]

[The skill Claiming Medical Expenses (Lv. 1) is activated.]

‘That’s it!’

Rachiel cheered.

The plan worked. He looked at the follow-up message with twinkling eyes.

[Patient: Koosman benefited from an extension of his life expectancy of 21 years and 2 months through your detox treatment. Accordingly, you will be settled a bonus life equal to 1/2000 of 21 years and 2 months.]

[Bonus life of 3.81 days has been calculated.]

[The minimum unit of life to be settled is 1 day.]

[Bonus life to be settled This is rounded off.]

[A total of 4 days of bonus life is calculated.]

…Sweet!

For an instant, a refreshing feeling enveloped my entire body. And a message that proved that feeling appeared before my eyes.

[Expected life expectancy: 118 days]

“….”

Increased.

Life expectancy really increased by 4 days.

‘…This is it!’

I received bonus life in return for treating others. Moreover, I got it by giving a bottle and medicine to a bad guy. It couldn’t be more desirable.

‘It also means that the aftereffects have been properly eliminated.’

The images of Kusman in the novel came to mind.

He was a very persistent person. He was the type of person who would bite the person who would harm him until he died.

But what if you missed him today?

It would have been a nuisance forever.

“Get arrested.”

The limp Khusman was dragged away by the guards. When I returned to the gladiatorial arena, the subjugation operation there was roughly coming to an end. I passed by countless people who were bound.

It was then.

“Hey, Your Highness?”

Sir Gardin, who had been following silently until now, spoke up.

“Look, I’m just saying this because I’m really curious.”

“huh. It’s okay, just ask.”

“Yes, Your Highness. “Did you… have you planned all of this for tonight?”

“uh.”

“….”

“why?”

“Oh no.”

Sir Gardin gave a vague answer. It was because I almost let out an exclamation unconsciously.

‘Our Highness… was this kind of person.’

He was a person who always suffered from illness. So, I thought of him as someone who needed to be looked after and protected. But looking at it tonight, it wasn’t like that.

‘How did you know there was a place like this in the basement of the restaurant?’

Even though he was a regular, he didn’t know.

But what about the crown prince?

I couldn’t guess it right away.

‘Is there another method that I don’t know about? ‘Because they are members of the royal family.’

The amount and depth of information you encounter will probably be different. When I thought about it that way, I kind of agreed. On the other hand, I also felt admiration.

‘Our Highness… has a side like this.’

At some point, he had something called a pulpit. He often surprises people and leaves them amazed. And when I thought about the results of what I did tonight, I was even more impressed.

‘Unbeknownst to people, this underground organization was growing in the middle of the imperial capital. It was a type of rotten flesh that harmed public order and disrupted the order of the imperial capital. But His Highness cut it off all at once.’

Thanks to this, we were able to protect the well-being of the imperial capital and public order. We have achieved a more just society.

For that purpose, His Majesty displayed his courage. When I thought about that, my heart was full again. I even felt proud of myself for no reason. Just like that, Sir Gardin followed Rakiel with bright eyes.

Thanks to this, Rakiel became embarrassed(?).

‘Whew. Lord Gardin, I almost know what you’re thinking when you’re looking at me.’

I felt like I was watching.

That guy must be misunderstanding something. You see my intentions tonight as something very noble and holy.

‘It’s not like that.’

A bitter smile came.

He walked towards the gladiator’s waiting room. The front of the waiting room was cluttered. Cernutt, a member of the Royal Guard, had collapsed and fainted. Dozens of remaining guards were filling the passage.

I saw Damian across from him.

Gladiators were also seen behind Damian. In short, there was a confrontation between the guards and Damian.

“Tsk. “I told you to just wait patiently.”

I raised my voice intentionally.

Did that voice reach you?

I saw Damian startled. Soon the guy’s eyes turned in this direction. Those eyes are startling again. Immediately, both eyes widen in shock.

I couldn’t help but smile at that sight.

“Do you believe it now? “I revealed that I was the crown prince.”

“….”

Did he nod his head?

Maybe so.

Damian’s sword, which was aimed at the guards, swung down. The fierce momentum disappeared like melting snow. Seeing that made me smile again.

‘Public interest? ‘A just society?’

A misunderstanding that Sir Gardin probably harbors. Thinking about that made me a little embarrassed. In fact, we have no such noble intentions at all. We have never pursued a life dedicated to others.

He can’t be that great of a person.

I don’t even dare to expect that to happen.

‘I was just pushing ahead with tonight’s events to survive longer.’

Damian Cayenne is the main character in the novel.

Gladiators lined up behind him.

Toward them, Rakiel smiled brightly, full of sales power (?) as she greeted her first patient.
