The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 556
Episode 556 Genius is something like this (1)
Time of countless efforts.
Days of sweating and working hard.
A sign of hope that finally emerged at the end.
It was the moment when Damien dropped the chopsticks he was trying to pick up with his feet. It was also the moment when I was embarrassed and tried to reach out and pick up chopsticks. At that very moment, Damian felt a strange sensation for the first time in his life.
‘what?’
suddenly.
Suddenly.
Out of nowhere.
Manahat moved on its own. It’s like opening your eyes in the middle of a deep winter sleep. He tossed and turned with a faint movement. With that tossing and turning, a small stream of mana came out from the mana heart.
Under. Past the solar plexus and abdomen and lower back. Through the thigh. Past the calf. Through the ankle. It flowed down to the soles of my feet and toes. And then he gently pulled the muscle stem along the path. It’s like pulling a thin thread through muscle fibers.
like that.
…Sweet!
The middle toe of Damian’s right foot stood tall, showing off its powerful movement.
“….”
Damian froze in surprise.
The same was true for Rachiel.
He was the one who had been nagging Damian all kinds of things until just now. It’s been a few days since I started training, but I still can’t move my muscles with mana. Does this make sense? Is this why you will be able to lift a spoon yourself later? But, did you know that every time you try to move your toes with mana, your face gets crumpled and looks really ugly?
But suddenly it stood tall.
Damien’s middle toe pointed out vigorously.
So proud, with the momentum to break through the ceiling of the director’s office.
“Uh, could this be…”
Rakiel stuttered, feeling a little confused.
“Is this a little message for me?”
“Uhm, I don’t know, Your Highness.”
“You didn’t do it, right?”
“you’re right.”
“Did you move your muscles?”
“Yes, probably.”
“To Manaro?”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
“But why the middle toe?”
“It just happened to happen.”
“But why did they just stop him?”
“I just did it and it worked out.”
“aha. “The mind leads the body, or something like that.”
“majesty? “Are you in a bad mood?”
“huh? no. at all.”
“But you look upset.”
“no. “I am very happy now.”
“Isn’t that kind of expression usually said to be ‘angry’?”
“Uh huh. at all. “I am very happy now.”
“Are you sure?”
“Is that so?”
“Then why are you holding my middle toe so tightly as if you were going to break it at any moment?”
“this? “Are you testing whether you can move well with mana?”
“You must have put a lot of effort into your hands for the inspection.”
“Ah, this is how the test will go well. Should I just smash it and break it? under. under. under.”
“…yes?”
“no no. “My true intentions were in vain.”
“In times like this, wouldn’t they usually just pretend that it wasn’t their true intentions?”
“Then you’re lying, right?”
“Are you saying you’re at least not a liar?”
“of course. An honest relationship without a gram of lies. “How great.”
“….”
Damian ended up laughing. A smile of the same temperature appeared on Rachiel’s lips.
“Anyway, you did it.”
“yes. “Thanks to you, Your Majesty.”
“Thanks to me. “It’s because you did a good job.”
Rachiel looked at Damian’s legs and feet again. It was visible thanks to acupoint scanning. The mana flowing along the path of the foot and yang meridian meridian, which is an acupoint extending to Damien’s lower extremities, was seen pulling the muscles and ligaments.
‘it’s okay.’
My fists clenched inside. I did it. I finally did it. It was a much faster result than expected.
‘Originally, I was planning on holding it for at least a month.’
Even considering Damian’s genius learning ability, I expected that much. Because this is never easy. This is only possible if you manually control each and every muscle using mana.
But in reality?
‘It took exactly 12 days…’
Rachiel looked at Damian with new eyes. It was amazing. I also thought that this guy’s genius was at a much greater level than I thought. So on the other hand, I felt sorry, similar to sadness.
‘Originally, I could have used this genius for myself in a much more advanced field.’
According to the contents of the novel, it would certainly have been so.
But not now.
I felt sorry for that fact.
However, Rakiel was not absorbed in soft sentimentality.
‘Because I have more important things to do now.’
Rakiel came to his senses.
And then I asked Damien.
“Okay then. It’s important from now on. “Can you feel the stream of mana pulling on your middle toe?”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
“Can you control it further at that stage?”
“I will try.”
“good. “Then, would you like to bend only the tip joint of the middle toe you are standing on?”
“Ugh….”
“Don’t rush, take your time. “Feel the stems and ligaments that make up the muscles.”
“….”
Damian closed his eyes. And he concentrated all his mind to put into practice what his master had told him. Then I felt it. The ligaments, muscles, joints, and countless other connective tissues that make up the toes are intertwined, connected, and how they are harmonized.
…Kkugit!
The joints at the tip of my toes moved. Instead of just moving as usual, he succeeded in moving through forced manual control using mana.
“Whoa!”
I broke into a cold sweat.
But Rachiel’s encouragement did not end there.
“Oh oh? “Then… shall we try standing up the little toe here?”
“Whoop!”
“Is this okay?”
“Whoa…!”
“Then, do you want to fold your little toe and raise your fourth toe?”
“Whoop!”
“Now then, clap your middle toe and fourth toe!”
“Huh huh huh!”
“Hey. Everyone saw it, right? If you saw it, please support us!”
Rakiel shouted with sincere joy. Many people watching the training treatment gave a standing ovation.
Pours of applause and support. Damian’s face turned bright red. What a day to succeed in clapping your toes and receive applause. I’m happy, but what can I say? It felt like a part of my soul was being crushed to the core with a sense of self-destruction.
Anyway, Damian’s full-scale walking training began right away.
“Now, before you start training, you have to keep this in mind. This isn’t just a walking exercise. It is a training exercise in walking by controlling muscles purely with mana. okay?”
“Yes, my lord.”
“You can’t just use your motor skills like you normally walk.”
“That’s… easier said than done.”
“Of course it’s not easy. Just think of your whole body as a jellyfish. Or a plastic bag floating in sea water.”
“What is a plastic bag?”
“There is such a thing. Anyway, relax your legs first.”
“Phew….”
“Feel your entire leg, like the feeling of moving your toes with mana.”
“Whoa….”
“Can you feel it?”
“Yes, Your Highness. “Roughly speaking.”
“Then what about the joints, ligaments and muscles of the hips and lower back?”
“I can feel it.”
“All of the spine, abs, chest, shoulders and arms?”
“Umm….”
“Feel it…. Feel it…. Feel it…. I can feel it…. Feel it….” “
…I feel it inside, Your Majesty.”
“Don’t feel any useless feelings….”
“Please, can you please stay 1 meter away and whisper to me?”
“Nope?”
“….”
“The farther away your body becomes, the farther away your mind becomes.”
“I think you and I need to distance ourselves a little bit right now.”
“That’s your opinion.”
“But…”
“Use it.” Don’t you want to concentrate? Is Lou Gehrig’s disease a joke? Does controlling the Selma muscle look easy? huh?”
“….”
Damian just closed his mouth.
Rakiel carefully observed Damian’s mana heart and acupuncture points.
‘Hmm.’
A stream of mana was seen trying to extend from Damian’s mana heart. But it didn’t seem easy. This was because I was trying a different movement than how I usually just use mind techniques.
‘I guess it’s not easy after all.’
In fact, it is relatively simple to release mana and load it into the muscles through ordinary(?) mental techniques. This is because all you have to do is add strength to the muscle movement.
But what about self-mana muscle control?
The principle itself was completely different.
‘Rather than adding mana to the muscle movement to add strength, the mana itself must be used to contract the muscle fibers to make them move.’
Even each and every one of the tens or hundreds of muscle fibers that make up the muscle must be manually controlled. The same goes for the ligaments connected there. Only by doing that can you barely move the muscles of one part of the body.
But how many muscles are mobilized when a person walks?
All muscles in the entire body must be mobilized in unison, with the correct timing, sequence, and appropriate intensity. The same applies when walking on flat ground. What if the floor is uneven? More complex muscle mobilization must be done to balance the body according to the ground conditions.
‘Besides, people don’t just walk straight ahead. Things get more complicated.’
Walk sideways and backwards.
He even goes up and down the stairs!
Likewise, human bipedal walking involves mobilizing numerous complex movements without being conscious of it. Therefore, engineers who develop robots also treat the development of bipedal robots that walk naturally as an incredibly difficult task and goal.
‘So, for this guy to even be able to walk properly…’
It will take at least a few months.
Because he’s a genius.
Because this is the guy who always surprised us.
If you’re extremely lucky, you might be able to do it in half a year. I hope so. Then I think there will be real hope. I think you can yell at people like Lou Gehrig’s disease and things like that.
‘So please don’t let it last longer than a year.’
Rakiel prayed sincerely.
But still, deep down, I was determined.
This isn’t really a year, it could take two or even three years. Just one step. It may take several years just to take that step naturally. That’s true even if Damian is the greatest genius of all time. Now we are taking on the challenge of doing just that. So, let’s not have easy expectations and be disappointed. Let’s see for a long time. Let’s make up our minds to do that.
I was in the middle of repeating this to myself.
“…Is it okay to do it like this?”
Damian’s question awakened my thoughts.
Rakiel suddenly raised his head.
And then I looked at Damian.
Thanks to you, I realized it.
“…uh?”
Damian’s eye level was slightly higher than this one. It wasn’t like that a little while ago. I was sitting. But now….
“Uh huh?”
Damian was up on his feet. And then took a step back. Although it was a little awkward and creaky, I naturally took a step backwards instead of forwards without falling!
And faintly sneezed.
“It’s a little awkward because it’s my first time doing it, but is it okay to walk like this?”
“….”
Rakiel was at a loss for words.
And I thought.
‘I had been preparing for at least a few years, but on the first day, on my first attempt, I even took my first step as a moonwalk… Is this a true story?’
