The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 70
Episode 70 All-out war (2)
What is a miracle?
Is it a result that is given like a gift at a moment of earnest desire? Or is it another name for the hope that rescues us from the edge of despair that no one expected?
Ding dong!
A sound that rings loudly in my head. And a breathtaking message appears before my eyes. But there was no time to read the message.
“Nuuuuuu-!”
Roaring sound.
Porosity.
A huge fist falling down.
“…!”
Is it the end?
I reflexively closed my eyes. I raised my hands. And… he blocked the Minotaur’s fist.
Squeak-!
“…Huh?”
There was a huge impact on my forearm. I almost lost my shoulder joint. It felt like I was blocking a large stick with my forearm. If you’re unlucky, it’s just the kind of pain and shock that will cause you to break something or at least get a bruise.
“….”
But wait a minute. Did I just block the Minotaur’s punch?
‘Could it be that he’s already dead?’
Could it be that his senses are confused because he died in one hit? Or did he fall into ridiculous hallucinations in the process of dying?
But that was then.
“…purr?”
Urus, the king of the Minotaurs, let out a loud snort. The hot wind hit my cheek. I frowned. I opened my closed eyes. Thanks to you, I was able to see it.
“…uh?”
The huge face of Urus was right in front of us. The guy was glaring in this direction and letting out harsh snorts. The sniffles hit me again.
‘Ugh, the smell.’
There was a huge sense of enjoyment. The sensation was by no means a hallucination or illusion.
“Purp! “Puruk!”
Clumsy! Suddenly!
Urus let out a rough breath and pressed his fists down.
“Ugh!”
An enormous weight was pressing down on my raised forearm. A feeling as if a rock was pressing down on you. But the object he is supporting with his forearm is…
“Huh?”
It was Urus’ fist. So, this person is blocking Urus’ fist with his forearm. But there was something even more strange.
‘Has this Minotaur gotten smaller?’
Just now, my fist was as big as a rock. It was definitely bigger than this body. Now it looked just the size of a ripe melon.
It wasn’t just fists. An overwhelming 7 meter tall figure? It wasn’t. It’s just about a head taller than this one. It’s just that the back teeth (?) are a little beefier than this one.
So, in other words…
‘The size difference… has disappeared.’
What happened? This person was just struggling to survive and do something. Then, out of frustration, I just ate red sunflower seeds, which are meant for phantom species.
‘But the Minotaur that tried to kill me shrank in size to about the same size as me? Does that make sense?’
I first thought it was something ridiculous and bizarre. But it was that moment. Did he not like this dazed reaction?
“Purp! Nuuuuu-!”
Urus unclenched his fist. He stretched out his hand. Without any time to do anything, I grabbed him by the collar. I pulled it up. I threw it away.
“…Ugh!”
Kwa-kwa-kwang-!
This side was just thrown to the ground, but there was a loud sound of a dump truck overturning. That wasn’t all. The sailboat’s stern, which was at least half intact, was completely crushed by the back of this ship!
‘what?’
I was embarrassed. Urus suddenly became similar in size to this one. But when I fell, I saw that it had crushed the sailboat’s stern with its back. So this means…
‘I’ve grown bigger?’
I quickly raised my head. The night sky with a rising moon. Urus is approaching. Visible in between… a red warning message.
“….”
Now that I think about it, I heard the ‘ding dong’ notification sound earlier.
I quickly rolled my eyes.
I scanned the contents of the message.
[WARNING!]
[You have taken red sunflower seeds exclusively for phantom species without permission!]
[Red sunflower seeds can cause extreme and drastic side effects on the human body, so if you take them, seek medical advice from a doctor, pharmacist, or oriental medicine doctor.]
‘…I’m a Hanuisande?’
My shoulders flinched without me realizing it. In the meantime, I kept moving my gaze.
[The red sunflower seeds you took caused an unstable gigantism effect.]
[You are a human, not a phantom species.]
[Therefore, the gigantism effect is limited to 3 minutes.]
[Serious side effects will occur after the gigantism ends.]
[You will fall into a coma for 120 hours (5 days) from the time the gigantism ends.]
[Current remaining gigantism time: 2 minutes and 37 seconds]
“….”
Wait. Let’s summarize the situation. So now, thanks to the red sunflower seeds, I have grown to a size similar to Urus…
Kwaang-!
“That!”
Fists flew. It hit me like it was hitting my face. The stars appeared brightly before my eyes. In the meantime, a red message appeared in one corner of my field of vision.
[Current remaining gigantic maintenance time: 2 minutes and 34 seconds]
“…Ugh!”
It became clear. The message has never lied. So….
‘I have grown up.’ Thanks to the red sunflower seeds. What this means is that he will remain similar in size to this Minotaur for the next 2 minutes and 30 seconds, and when that time ends… he will fall into a coma for 120 hours and 5 days, right?’
Realization struck my cerebral cortex. To sum it up, it’s like that. 2 minutes and 30 seconds to go. You have to face the Minotaur running amok inside. If you fail to do so, you will fall into a 5-day coma. They are reduced to a state of complete helplessness in this chaos.
In other words, it will be a 100% death win.
So from now on, I will….
“Gaaaaaa!”
Awareness brought action. I got up from the floor. The face where I had just been hit hurt, but it was bearable. It seemed like it was thanks to its increased size.
‘it hurts. But it doesn’t die like this!’
It was an attack from Urus that would have resulted in a fracture to the entire body or confirmed death even if it had just passed by. But not anymore. Even if you get hit, you won’t die. It just hurts so bad.
‘It reminds me of high school!’
I once confronted Iljin. Why do I have to do what you tell me? There was a time when I had to fold it roughly. And I was hit like a dog. The feeling of this moment of confronting Urus forced me to recall memories(?) of that time.
‘PTSD is coming, really!’
“Purp! “Puruk!”
He stood face to face with Urus. The Minotaur seemed embarrassed at the similar eye level. The same was true for his energy and blood flow, which was visible through the acupuncture point scanning option.
‘just now!’
There is no time to hesitate. There are only 2 minutes and 20 seconds left. moved quickly. ran forward. I leaned down and reached out to the floor. I picked up the thorn from the pod that I dropped earlier. Urus responded to this charge.
“-nuuuu!”
It lowered its body and raised its horn. I was able to predict its movements based on its reactions and movement of energy and blood.
‘butt!’
They’re probably trying to headbutt this guy like they’re fighting bulls. As soon as I realized that, I kicked the deck. I floated into the air.
Kwaang-!
Broken deck fragments. I jumped through it. He jumped over the charging Urus with his horns in front. And stretched out his hand. I caught the guy’s tail.
Tukkeung!
As soon as I landed, I hugged the guy’s waist from behind. Immediately the guy’s elbow flew out.
“Nuh-!”
Crack!
“…Geuak!”
My eyes flash. I got hit on the nose by an elbow. My philtrum became very hot and I felt an unpleasant taste.
‘Nosebleed?’
It seemed like a double nosebleed had burst. But there was no time to wipe away the nosebleed.
‘The remaining time is… 2 minutes and 10 seconds!’
I held on to the rampaging Urus from behind. And then he raised the hand holding the thorn. I hit it straight down.
Sigh!
Is it because he got bigger and gained weight? The thorns pierced through the tough cowhide! Thanks to this, it was properly inserted into the Cheonyuhyeol (天牖穴) on the side of the nape of the neck, in the depression behind the sternocleidomastoid muscle, which crosses the neck diagonally.
“Purp!”
…but it was shallow.
The flow of mana passing through Urus’s acupuncture points was visible through acupoint scanning. The tip of the thorn could not reach the current. The reason was simple.
‘Oh, this poor physical strength!’
This is because their power is disgustingly weak. Even though it grew in size and gained weight, it was unable to pierce the thorn sufficiently deep due to its naturally weak strength.
“Nuuuu!”
To make matters worse, Urus began to struggle violently. I guess it’s because it stings. Of course, I had no intention of giving up here. Because this too, lives are at stake.
‘Woah!’
I jumped on the guy’s back as if I was piggybacking. I wrapped my legs around his waist. It clung to me like a cicada.
“Demiaan!”
The only person capable of helping the current situation. I saw him suddenly raise his head at the shout from this side. I quickly shouted at the guy.
“come! Wow! This thorn! The back part! Hit it!”
Urus running wild like a mad bull. This one, hanging on his back like a rodeo. He shouted while still pressing the thorn to the bastard’s acupuncture point.
Did you realize their intention? Damian came running limping. threw myself away
Faaah!
The sword in his hand glowed coolly. I hit hard on the back of the thorn it was holding.
Kwa-tung-!
I hit the thorn with my sword like I hit a nail with a hammer. The effect(?) was clear.
Wow?
The thorn, which was barely embedded in the outer surface of the thick cowhide, sank in by about 10 centimeters! Finally, I stabbed Urus’s heavenly blood!
“…NUO!”
Does it sting?
Urus’s struggles became more intense. But I had no intention of stopping the procedure. Because I have to live. We have to stop Urus’ rampage. In order to do that, I need to calm this guy down first.
‘We have to neutralize this guy. Killing? no. That would be impossible for me. Even though I’m the same size, I’m still a weakling. Because this guy is stronger than me. Even now, you’ve barely pierced the skin with the thorn.’
So killing it will be difficult. In particular, it is absolutely impossible to kill this guy in less than 2 minutes. So what are the remaining options?
‘I need to make him behave. paralysis? no. It’s impossible because he’s so excited and running wild. There is no poison used to treat Anise Tail. So the best I can do now is… calm this guy down and end his berserk. Then you have a chance of winning. Even if I faint, how can the remaining Damian and the remaining knights fight?’
I made cool-headed calculations. Then, an angle appeared. Damian and the special forces of the Royal Guards are now looking at us from over there with astonished eyes. This side seemed to have recovered somewhat from the blow thanks to the fight with Urus and the time it took.
That’s enough.
As long as we calm down Urus and end his berserk, they will be able to take care of the rest.
‘You need to calm down your nervous system. Let’s reduce the excitability of the sympathetic nervous system and activate the parasympathetic nervous system.’
A conclusion has been reached.
The method was also clear.
“Kid! thorn!”
He held onto Urus and cried out. Kkosomi responded just in time.
“Little girl!”
Tickets!
The guy pulled out thorns one after another. I threw them one by one in this direction. As soon as I received it, I stuck it into Urus’ body.
“Cheonryohyeol (天髎穴)!”
The angled spot at the top of the shoulder blade. A thorn was slightly inserted into the depression of the superior angle of the scapula.
“Damian!”
As soon as I shouted, Damian moved as if he had been waiting. He jumped high and struck down his sword.
Quatuck-!
A sword that strikes thorns like a hammer. Thanks to this, the thorns penetrate through the tough cowhide.
“Nuo!”
Urus went wild even more. But I didn’t stop my hand.
“Gyemaekhyeol (瘈脈穴)! Damien!”
Knock!
In human terms, it is diagonally below the back of the ear. A thorn was stuck there without mercy. I could see his blood vessels shining brightly for a moment. The light spread along the flow of acupuncture points in the Su-So-Yang-Three-Cha-Cha-Jeong. Bunji followed the flow and continued to insert thorns.
“Yepung (翳風)!”
bang!
There is a thorn a little below the blood vessels. Next up was just above the auricular apex.
“Gakson (角孫)!”
Kwa-tung!
“Nuo!”
Did you feel that this side was doing something? Urus’s rampage became more violent. But this one also clung desperately. And I repeated it to myself as if brainwashing myself.
‘This guy is a patient. This is a child patient who throws tantrums because he doesn’t want to be acupuncture. But that child is a bit too strong. ‘That’s it!’
After doing image training like that, my confidence soared. A sense of professional duty to be able to subdue(?) welled up.
“If you behave well, I’ll give you candy!”
Sigh!
The last one was Imunhyeol (耳門穴).
Ear-to-face direction. In humans, it is the concave area just in front of the supratragic notch, where two ear folds meet and form a valley. The thorn was stabbed violently. Damian hit the thorn with his sword as if driving a stake into it.
The effect was clear.
“…Neu!”
Urus’ rampage just stopped. The red bloodshot veins in the eyes subsided. The rapid breathing and movements of the five organs and six muscles became calm. The same was true for the heart.
Thump-! Boom! Thump…
Urus’s cardiovascular blood vessels were partially blocked by blood clots. The coronary artery relaxes and dilates. Myocardial blood flow, which had been stagnant, improved. Myocardial oxygen demand was dramatically lowered. The terrible pain that had been constricting my heart until now seemed to have disappeared. Urus’ eyes, which had been burning wildly, became calm.
“…nu nu?”
Urus’s gaze, which had been glaring at Rachiel as if it were an enemy, was slowly but surely changing into a look at the ‘benefactor who healed him’.
