The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 67
Episode 67 Midnight Rodeo (2)
“Kiseom-!”
A loud shout rang out. At the same time, a 5-meter-sized object crossed the night sky. flew. It went straight along the trajectory of a four-seam fastball. And then it crashed into the Minotaur’s sturdy back.
No, I was stuck.
Wow!
“…NUO!”
The Minotaur’s cry echoes throughout the night sky. The moment Damian heard that, he had to realize.
‘Lord Little?’
A chunk flew in and stuck in the Minotaur’s back. It was clearly the phantom species, Lord Kom. Round and jagged like a chestnut. It looked the same as usual. It just got bigger, approaching 5 meters in size.
‘Lord Kokom… did he have that kind of ability?’
I thought it was just a phantom species carried in a leather pouch to prevent stabbing. I thought he was the one who provided the thorn for the crown prince’s acupuncture.
‘But why is Sir Cosmetic here? Then what do you say?’
A question that came to mind at that moment.
No way, I thought.
Damian’s eyes moved quickly. I looked beyond the collapsed outer wall. I quickly scanned the official residence garden. Thanks to you, I was able to find it. It was the appearance of Crown Prince Rachiel in the posture of throwing something.
‘Why is that human there?’
For a moment, I felt a sense of injustice. On the other hand, I felt angry.
‘I went through all this trouble to help you escape.’
If that were the case, I would have run far away. Why did they come back here and do that? At that thought, my fists clenched without realizing it. At the same time, Rakiel, who made eye contact with Damian, also clenched his fists.
‘nice! Hit!’
I did it just in case.
I wondered if it would go well.
Red sunflower seeds received when summoning a phantom species. It is said that if fed, the phantom species will grow dramatically larger. Kosomi personally guaranteed it. I trusted him and fed him. As soon as I fed it, I threw it with all my might. It felt like I was throwing a grenade as soon as I pulled out the safety pin.
As it flew like that, the little bird became huge. It hit the back of Urus, the king of the Minotaurs.
‘thank god. ‘It’s not too late.’
Suddenly, something from a little while ago came to mind. He was running away while being hugged by Anis. I kept thinking about Damian, who was left in the bedroom. To be honest, I was worried.
‘Damian is strong, but… he was blocked and isolated by a Minotaur that was twice the size of a normal Minotaur.’
It seemed like even Damian couldn’t beat that. So it was.
‘I can’t leave him like this.’
I thought it shouldn’t be like that. Just because he’s the main character of the novel? Have you already developed a sense of humanity? Not all. This guy was too capable an escort to lose here. Considering the effort I put into getting him, I didn’t want to leave him behind.
‘If he survives safely, my comfortable retirement and future will be protected!’
Just as Liu Bei in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms has Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Just like there was Lionel Messi at Barcelona FC. Just as Michael Jordan was alive and well in the Chicago Bulls in their prime. Just as you need chicken to watch the World Cup game and you need to look good and pretty on a blind date.
I definitely needed Damian, too.
“…So, the little thorn grabs the thorn! hurry!”
shouted.
The shout reached me.
Damian’s hand grasped the sword.
I hit it.
Kwajak!
The rock weighing down my leg split in half. I hit it again. I hit it again. Quack, quack, piles of rock and lumber cracked, shattered, and scattered. Finally, a sense of freedom came to my trapped leg. It was with pain.
“Ugh.”
Am I broken?
Or is it broken?
I knew my calves and ankles would listen. But I couldn’t afford to worry about such trivial(?) pain. I got up. I raised my head. Just above, the Minotaur was screaming.
“Noooooooooooo-!”
The Minotaur spread his back wide and raised his arms. He grabbed the pod stuck on his back. I pulled it out from my back.
Pop-!
Is it because of the thick cowhide? There was almost no blood. The same was true for Urus’s two hands that held on to Kseomi. It’s just that it stings more than I thought and I couldn’t hold it properly.
“…Neoooo!”
Is it because I was so overcome with anger that I held on too tightly? My palms, forearms, and chest all felt tingling as if I was holding a chestnut exercise ball tightly with my bare hands. I reflexively retracted my hands. Thanks to you, I missed it. The little girl fell to the floor.
“Little girl! “Kkosseum!”
As soon as he fell, he rolled towards Damian and shouted. Damian, realizing his intention, stretched out his hand. I caught one of the thorns of the snail.
At that moment, Kkosomi unlocked chestnut mode(?). With Damien sandwiched between the thorns on his back, he exposed his four legs and ran. It slipped out of the collapsed outer wall. It was faster than it looked. Thanks to this, Urus was unable to react to the sudden escape.
“…Nuo?”
Urus’ suffering did not end there. The moment when Kkosomi throws himself outside the outer wall. Damian, who was riding on the back, drew his sword. I sprayed it. I put my all into it. A strong sword energy was formed. stretched out The third-floor exterior wall of the mayor’s residence was struck.
Took-!
The building was already half collapsed due to the Minotaur’s rampage. The sword energy with all his might exploded there. The weakened building could no longer hold on. The result was a full-scale collapse.
Quad deuk! Quadddd-!
“…Nuh!”
One side of the five-story building collapsed and hit Urus. Even Urus, which had the physical specifications of a dinosaur, could not do anything in the face of the weight of tens of tons or more that were collapsing. It crashed down with a scream. A thick cloud of dust rose.
Meanwhile, the little one landed on the ground in the garden. He ran straight ahead and joined the group. Rakiel welcomed Kkomgi and Damian.
“Good job, little girl.”
“Little girl!”
“And Damian, are you okay?”
“…of course.”
“I don’t think your leg is okay?”
“But we can still move enough to not fall behind.”
“Then that’s enough. First, go to a safe place and I will look after your leg, so let’s run away. “That Minotaur wouldn’t have died.”
Somehow it seemed like that. Judging from the way he was running rampant so far, it didn’t seem like he would easily die from being crushed by a five-story building.
‘If you leave it alone, angina can worsen and you could die. Still, it’s a bit of a waste. The best beef is spit out alive. Tsk. It would be a shame if that guy died. If that’s really the case, should I at least cut open the stomach and take it out?’
I felt sad. If it’s such a huge Minotaur, the bull emperor it carries must be of the highest quality. What a waste it would be if you couldn’t get it alive.
‘But… let’s not overdo it.’
Rakiel shook his head. Now is not the time to be greedy. This is not the time to play clumsy hero. If you make a mistake, you could end up having career counseling with King Yeomra, who is across the three provinces, let alone Woo Hwang.
“So, today’s courage ends here. “Let’s get out of here first.”
“All right.”
It was from then on. I left the garden of the mayor’s residence. In the process, I encountered the mayor and his group.
“Your Majesty! “Are you safe?”
The Mayor of Cremo, whose hair was blowing up in his pajamas, rushed over in a hurry. After confirming their safety, I breathed a sigh of relief.
“I will take care of you from now on. Come this way!”
“Where are we going?”
“I intend to go to the safest place in the city, Your Majesty.”
“The safest place?”
“Yes, Your Highness. “The sea is coming.”
“If it’s the sea….”
“Please get on my boat. So, if the ship is launched into the sea off the port, no matter how vicious the Minotaur may be, it will not be able to touch a single hair of your Majesty’s head.”
Take a boat and take refuge at sea. When I heard it, it seemed like a reasonable opinion.
“All right. “Then let’s move quickly.”
“Yes, Your Highness!”
He moved along with the mayor and his group. Completely escaped the official residence. I ran down the hill. I passed through a city in chaos. When we arrived at the dock, we saw a sailboat rushing to prepare for departure.
“Here comes the ship, Your Highness!”
Got on a sailboat. But for some reason, the mayor did not get on the boat. I wonder why. I looked at him with a puzzled look. The mayor who remained on the dock looked up and smiled bitterly.
“I will not avoid you, Your Highness.”
“why?”
“This is a city I am responsible for. A place where the prosperity and safety of countless people rest on my shoulders. But how could I, faced with a situation like today, find a safe place and run away alone?”
“….”
“So, your highness, please take refuge. I will remain here and command the guards.”
The mayor of Cremo was still in his pajamas. She had a chubby body and was wearing only one pair of slippers. Nevertheless, the reason that person seemed cool for a moment was probably because of his upright thoughts and actions. And I felt a prickly feeling for a moment.
‘It’s probably for the same reason.’
Although it was only for a moment, my conscience was pricked. That person, the mayor of the city, said he would take the risk to stay. As the crown prince of the empire, shouldn’t I run away to a safe place alone? Is it okay for this to be like this?
I was speechless for a moment. I also wondered if it would be without conscience to even offer words of encouragement to the mayor who remained on the dock. But that was then.
“We must set sail quickly, Your Majesty.”
I heard someone talking next to me. When I turned around, Damian was already next to me.
“But…”
“It’s not something you should feel guilty about, Your Majesty.”
Damian shook his head, interrupting this conversation.
“Everyone has their own role.”
“….”
Is that something like that?
I could understand what he said. The role of the mayor is to take responsibility for this city. Damian and the Royal Guard Special Forces have the role of protecting this area.
And for me….
‘I guess it means I have a role to survive and take responsibility for the royal family.’
Prince. And the Hwangga. To be honest, I feel burdened by this role that I suddenly took on. But now Damian is right.
“…Okay, I got it.”
I nodded towards Damian. He gave a thumbs up to the mayor on the dock. The mayor bowed with a solemn and proud expression.
“Raise the anchor line!”
A sailor’s cry.
The anchor was raised and the ship pushed off the dock. The dock gradually moved away. Little by little at first. Later for sure. Just like that, when I saw the sight of the pier getting smaller, it finally started to feel real.
‘You’re alive.’
I felt like my legs were slightly relaxed. I belatedly remembered the things I had experienced earlier. The bedroom exterior wall suddenly broke. The Minotaur was attacking us. Moments when death was narrowly avoided.
‘Whoa.’
Could this be causing PTSD? Should I at least do energy and blood therapy on my own? It was around that time when such a foolish thought occurred to me.
“…Huh?”
Someone in the crew made a dumb noise. But it wasn’t just him.
“What is that?”
The sailor next to him too.
Even the knights of the royal guard.
Some people frowned and tilted their heads as they looked at the dock moving away.
‘what?’
What did everyone see that made them do that? Without realizing it, I followed the people to the dock. Thanks to you, I was able to see it. No, I should have heard it before.
“Nuoooooo!”
“…!”
A familiar sound came from the dock. It has become clearer. Soon, a more familiar silhouette was seen running on the dock.
“Nuooo-!”
Tukwakwakwakwa-!
A familiar figure running towards us. That enormous body boasting dinosaur-level specifications. A huge Minotaur was running. But the direction of the sprint was this way. So, that is, from the land, through the dock, toward the sea…
“Nuo!”
Kwaaang-!
took a leap jumped into the night sky. At a speed and height that surpasses common sense. In an instant, it blocks the entire moon in the night sky.
It soared.
As if it was falling down.
Tukwagak-!
I landed on the deck of this sailboat. No, he was nice.
“…!”
A sailing ship rocking loudly. Sailors shouting “What are you doing?” Broken and scattered deck wood fragments. Among them, Urus raises his head while crouching with his huge body. I made eye contact with the guy.
“….”
The guy’s eyes said this. I’m only a fan of one guy.
‘So that one guy is me now?’
why?
why?
I couldn’t even figure out why that guy was doing that. Instead, a clear realization came to me along with goosebumps.
Tonight.
That guy and me.
One of the two has to come to an end.
