The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 420

Episode 420 Even if you fall while running (1)

“No!” Lee Han, military doctor!”

A cry that came out without me even realizing it. The moment Rachiel’s back disappeared inside the mine entrance, and the Bone Dragon that followed behind him also disappeared beyond the mine, Javilon, who was watching it from the top of the castle wall far away, let out an urgent cry.

It had to be that way.

The monster he watched, the Bone Dragon, was truly an impregnable being. Even I, who prided myself on being the strongest sword master, had no idea how to deal with it. Even though I didn’t get very close, I almost died just by staying nearby for a few days.

‘If it weren’t for Lord Urus and Lord Kuku… I would have been rotting like a cold corpse lying in that field by now.’

…Kwaak.

Javilon clenched his fists unconsciously.

Suddenly, something from a few days ago came to mind.

He was dying. I couldn’t help but cough, my stomach turned, and I fell down with no strength and vomited something out of nowhere. When I finished vomiting, I saw that my palms were soaked with black, dead blood.

Was there a helpless laugh?

I thought it would end like this. It was overwhelming and unfair. Although my life was not long, the thought of not being able to achieve anything I wanted and dying alone in a field with no one watching brought me inexplicable sadness and fear.

I didn’t want it to end like that.

But was it then?

A strange crying sound that I had never heard before was heard nearby. Soon, a large shadow came stomping towards him. A Minotaur of enormous size. And sitting on his shoulder were the Apiros queen bee larva and two phantom species.

‘They…’

At first, I thought I had seen something in vain. It was natural. A combination of a Minotaur, a caterpillar, and a group of phantom species. I wondered if my perspective on the verge of death was crazy and I was showing illusions.

But it wasn’t.

They were absolutely real and real. The Minotaur’s hand that lifted him up lightly and carefully was like that. This was the case with the Apyrus larva and the phantom species that were creeping up on the Minotaur’s arm.

This was the way they looked at their foreheads to measure their temperature, pressed their cheeks, pulled their lips into a puff, and clucked their eyelids to create temporary (?) double eyelids.

Thanks to that, I felt like I was complaining at the time.

Shut it all off.

I will kill you right away.

Then the guys’ reaction was spectacular. The two phantom species smiled with unexpectedly meaningful smiles. Then he grabbed his mouth and forced it open. An Apyrus larva came twitching in front of its mouth.

So did he shout again?

Whoop whoop whoop whoop.

The Apiros caterpillar’s reply to that cry was ‘Turn!’

“….”

Javilon stepped on the brakes as he pondered for a moment. I was so embarrassed at the time. The sensation of the spit from the Apyrus caterpillar entering my mouth was so disconcerting. But it was delicious. I feel a little ashamed and embarrassed to say this, but to be honest, it was delicious and fragrant.

It felt as if my entire body was being purified.

That was actually the case.

From that day on, I was cared for by the Minotaur and the phantom species for several days. The Apyrus caterpillar spat every morning, afternoon and evening. From the looks of it, it didn’t seem like it was a skill that had been practiced once or twice.

Thanks to this, surprisingly, he was able to escape death. My hopelessly broken body gradually recovered. As soon as he felt it, he mobilized all his mana hearts and created an infinite circulation of mana.

An art of mana that is close to the power that only a sword master can demonstrate. Thanks to this, recovery was greatly accelerated. And today, my condition has improved to the point where I can move with half of my usual strength.

I was confident…

Today, as I watched the hazy curtain surrounding the city lift, I was determined to successfully kidnap Army Doctor Lee Han…

“…Tsk!”

Javilon clicked his tongue in annoyance. And then I looked to the side.

“So, Little Prince, Little Prince, you really expect me to throw myself into that danger and get Army Doctor Lee Han out?”

“Little girl! tail!”

“Bbook! kiss!”

The two phantom species riding on my shoulders nodded as if they had been waiting. Javilon smiled bitterly at that sight. In fact, when I first saw the phantom species, I was wandering around the corner of death and was unable to recognize its identity.

But now I know.

The fact that they are a phantom species under the command of Army Surgeon Rihan, or rather, Crown Prince Rakiel. The Minotaur called Urus and the Apiros larva named Kuku are all followers of Surgeon Rihan.

This was thanks to the fact that I had been wandering around Army Surgeon Lee Han for quite some time and observing him from afar.

“And the reason they saved me was probably because of the advice they gave me, which they thought would definitely be helpful to Army Doctor Rihan. Am I right?”

Javilon asked a few steps away, across his shoulder, with a much deeper bitter smile. There was a man crouching low and observing the entrance to the mine. He was a man who looked like he was not a threat at all, with his plain clothes and cool eyes.

The man answered in a dry voice.

“you’re right. I can vouch for that fact as the third agent of the Magentano Imperial Special Intelligence Department. “If you make a decisive contribution in this matter, the Imperial Household and His Majesty will begin to seriously consider pardoning you.”

“It’s a pardon. dog sound.”

Javilon laughed viciously after hearing Agent 3’s answer. He flashed a murderous look in his eyes as if he were going to hit Agent 3’s head at any moment.

“He was hovering around Doctor Lee Han as if he was a spy anyway, and ended up on the brink of death just like me.”

“….”

“If it weren’t for Lord Kuku’s treatment, you would have already become a corpse lying around. But there’s no way he could have received such a grand guarantee from the royal family during that time.”

“there is. “I’ve already sent an emergency call.”

“under. “Would I be happy about that?”

“Isn’t it good to be pardoned?”

“Are you telling me to become Magentano’s dog?”

“….”

“That’s funny. If you’re going to keep talking nonsense, get out of there. “Before I rip you limb from limb.”

“But…”

“Shut up. “I was planning on running to save Dr. Lee Han even if I didn’t receive a request from him.”

Javilon stood up on the castle wall.

Now is not the time to make noise here. It’s time to move. If we procrastinate any longer, we may lose Surgeon Lee Han forever. So…

‘First of all, that armor that guy is wearing.’

Javilon’s gaze was pointed sharply at one side of an alley in the city. There lay Lord Greno, still unconscious.

Armor of a rugged design worn by Lord Greno. I guessed it when I saw it. Those who moved closest to the Bone Dragon today were all wearing armor like that. So it’s clear. That armor must have the effect of blocking the Bone Dragon’s mysterious destructive power.

‘Let’s borrow some of that first.’

…Taaat!

Forcibly borrowing for free and forever.

Javilon jumped down from the castle wall without hesitation to carry out an act that mankind decided to call ‘the robbery’.

♣

Tukak-!

“Whoop!”

Landing roughly, Rakiel took a deep breath. And I thought. This is the problem with shielding armor. It’s so heavy that every time you jump somewhere and land, you feel like your whole body is being crushed.

No, maybe he actually lost about 1 to 2 centimeters in height.

‘…but! ‘That’s not important now!’

Throw in!

He kicked the ground.

I threw myself away without hesitation.

Immediately after that, a terrifying blast roared from behind.

Kuwaaaaaaaaaaaa!

It feels like a KTX train is passing by with full accelerator 30cm next to the back of my head! No, it wasn’t because of my mood. That feeling was absolutely real, a true story, and a fact. This was because the bone dragon’s enormous front paws swept across the space as if grazing right behind it.

‘That wow!’

The wind pressure coming from behind the Beetle caused me to lose my balance for a moment. I fell over as if I was being pushed forward. My heart sank. But fortunately I didn’t fall. This was because just before I completely fell, a hand reached out and firmly supported me under my armpits.

“Come to your senses!”

Damian shouted.

Thanks to him, I managed to regain my balance. On the one hand, I felt a strange sense of injustice and cried out to my face.

“The spirit! “It’s well-dressed!”

But the truth was, I was completely out of my mind. It had no choice but to be like that.

‘I can’t see clearly in front of me!’

It was very dark inside the mine. Magic stones that gave off a faint light were placed throughout the tunnel, but that alone was not enough. This was because of the helmet and special glasses unique to the shielding armor.

‘I wish it were naked eyes…!’

It would have been a little better.

Since I was wearing a helmet that covered my entire head and special glasses to prevent eye radiation exposure, my vision was very limited. Even the entire tunnel was filled with dust due to the bone dragon running wild in pursuit.

It literally feels like I’m wearing three layers of sunglasses and running through smoke bombs in an underpass at Seoul Express Bus Terminal Station during a power outage, looking for Exit 3, the meeting place(?)!

‘…Does this make sense?!’

But he himself is doing something ridiculous. No, you have to. If you don’t, you’ll die. Rakiel ran with his eyes wide open, exerting the greatest concentration of his life.

Of course it was to die for.

But I couldn’t stop.

If you go just a little further, you will be able to reach hope.

‘Hey… I guess there was a trap just around the corner!’

Rakiel searched for memories.

A 30-day period of preparation for today’s operation. In the meantime, I heard briefings from the mayor about the progress of preparations almost every day. A few times, I went down to the mine shaft to take a look.

Thanks to this, I was able to remember the route to the end and the locations of small traps and devices installed here and there.

‘If the bait just runs away, that guy will definitely catch him!’

That’s why they installed quite a few traps and machinery to help the bait escape and, conversely, hinder the Bone Dragon’s pursuit. The first trap among them was around the corner.

‘So… this way!’

Tadat!

I flew through the thick dust. A roaring noise coming from behind. Did the Bone Dragon follow right behind? Feeling like my heart was going to burst, I kicked the floor towards the corner. I stretched out my hand. A wall in memory. The lever there was grabbed.

‘Take this!’

Rumbling?

But the lever did not go down. It seems like it’s caught on something. Or as if there was an unexpected malfunction.

‘uh?’

Why are you like this?

I was embarrassed. I put my weight on it and pressed it again. It really worked. There was. surely.

Pop!

The lever was broken.

“…?”

Is this a true story?

I couldn’t believe it and I didn’t want to believe it.

It was that moment.
