The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 267
Episode 267 Pleural Tweezers (2)
My son.
Are you really the boy I knew?
“….”
Emperor Asterion gave a complicated look. Where his gaze was directed, there was Rachiel. Prince. his successor. The son who will carry everything of the empire on his two shoulders in the future.
But suddenly it felt unfamiliar.
why?
The reason was unknown.
Very occasionally, or perhaps more often than I thought, I would feel an unidentified, foreign feeling. It was a strange feeling or premonition that the child in front of him might not be the being he knew.
Every time that happened, he shook his head violently.
Just like now.
‘What else am I thinking?’
The emperor quickly shook off the strange thoughts that were trying to occupy him. Then he looked at his son Rachiel with new eyes and asked.
“So, according to your reasoning, the person behind this spread of vampire mutation must have been a human warlock, and his purpose was to make a social contribution?”
“That is so, Your Majesty.”
“Even though it is just speculation, it is truly a shameless intention. “If so, is there any benefit for the warlock through him?”
“Of course there is, Your Majesty.”
“Tell me.”
The emperor tried to hide the admiration that was once again threatening to escape his lips. The reason for the admiration was simple. This was because the reasoning the crown prince was giving now was very similar to the content of a report he had recently received separately.
‘The imperial intelligence department… dozens of people had to gather information and hold repeated meetings to make that guess…’
But what about the son in front of us?
I’m just guessing and saying this on my own.
How?
I couldn’t figure it out.
However, I became curious about what happened after that reasoning. Will his son come to the same conclusion as the imperial intelligence department? The emperor was both curious and hopeful as he waited for Rachiel’s answer.
“I dare say, the warlock seems to want to come out into the light of society through this incident.”
“Sunshine for society?”
“That is so, Your Majesty.”
“A little more detail.”
…really similar. It says something similar to the conclusion reached by the Ministry of Information.
the emperor asked, trying to keep a stern expression.
“I am devastated, Your Majesty. “To be more specific, all types of black magic are currently prohibited by imperial law.”
“yes.”
“Therefore, the use of black magic and even its transmission are prohibited under any circumstances.”
“Of course. however?”
“Perhaps the warlock wants to change the imperial law.”
“…By making social achievements and receiving recognition?”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Rachiel continued his reasoning.
“His goal would be to achieve a feat that will be applauded by everyone, gain social recognition, and thereby gain freedom of activity by giving everyone the perception that black magic is not harmful enough to be banned.”
That was it.
When I thought about it, it was simple.
In fact, the Magentano imperial family banned black magic. No, in fact, it wasn’t just a ban, it was downright persecution. There has been quite a bit of black magic and bad connections from generation to generation. Anyway, that was the reason.
‘If we were to consider the position of a warlock in such a situation… he would most likely want two things. Either overthrow the imperial family that restricts one’s activities, or gain freedom of activity by being recognized by the imperial family.’
for example?
Cartu, the zombie wizard who was previously defeated by Kranos, was probably the former case. In fact, he dreamed of overthrowing the imperial family and trained an army of zombies.
On the other hand, what about the warlock who appears this time and controls the vampires?
‘If he had dreamed of overthrowing the imperial family, he would have used a different method. Rather than vaguely touching the citizens of the imperial capital, he would have taken advantage of key figures in the imperial family or members of the royal family.’
But it didn’t happen. The vampire mutation disease was spread only to unsuspecting citizens. Thanks to that, after thinking about it for a bit, I could clearly see the intention.
“Perhaps he has the ability to easily cure vampirism.”
“So, you were trying to make a social contribution by having your subordinates treat the disease you spread by pretending that it had nothing to do with you?”
“That is exactly so, Your Majesty.”
“….”
The emperor was silent.
same.
The crown prince is repeating almost exactly the same story as the report he received from the imperial intelligence department just this morning.
‘What are you…’
The emperor struggled to swallow his admiration. And he said it with the feeling of taking the final test.
“Feel so good. I have heard your opinion. But even so, I still feel like I have one question that doesn’t go away.”
“What question do you have?”
“You guessed that the evil agent behind this incident was a human warlock, but I really don’t understand that. Normally, if a vampire is a being, it would be more reasonable to assume that there is a higher level vampire.”
“You are correct.”
“But do you have any basis for singling out a human warlock?”
“Of course, Your Majesty.”
“Say it.”
The emperor ordered.
Rachiel smiled faintly.
“The basis for guessing that was simple. “It’s because I heard the testimony of the vampires I captured.”
“It’s a testimony.”
“I couldn’t get a direct answer from them because they were under a mental ban. However, through unusual questioning, we have obtained a number of indirect testimonies.”
“Indirect testimony?”
“That is so, Your Majesty.”
“for example?”
the emperor asked.
Rachiel’s smile deepened.
“It is said that the favorite food of the evil beast who commanded the vampires was garlic baguette.”
“…what?”
“He likes white. I have a slight fear of heights. My uvula is sensitive, so I sometimes feel nauseous while brushing my teeth. He has excellent memorization and learns magic tricks quickly, and his favorite partner is a woman who reads a lot of books. “Especially people of the opposite sex who are interested in fantasy literature.”
“….”
“The carriage driving style is surprisingly very gentle, like that of an old man driving, and he is said to be the conscientious type who goes to bed early and wakes up early. He also said that on stressful days, he has a habit of slightly grinding his teeth while he sleeps and enjoys sunbathing and starting his morning with cold coffee. “They say it’s the same even in the middle of winter, so you might be surprised… No, no, anyway, they also said that sometimes their intestines become sensitive and they feel burdened by consuming large amounts of high-protein foods.”
“What is that…”
“This is all information obtained indirectly through the testimony of vampires.”
“….”
“May I tell you further….”
“Is there anything else?”
“I said that I enjoy strength training because I am very interested in taking care of my body. Recently, he achieved the 3rd generation weight of 400 kilograms and was very happy that he would soon be able to proudly wear Anda Armor….”
“….”
“Shall I tell you more?”
“Oh no, it worked.”
The emperor waved his hand without realizing it.
Rachiel continued.
“As a result of gathering the information I just shared with you, I have come to the conclusion that he cannot be a vampire.”
…and so it was.
No vampire enjoys garlic baguettes unless they are a serious pervert in the first place. There are no vampires who wake up early in the morning and no vampires start their day by sunbathing.
Moreover, vampires basically have strength that surpasses that of humans. 400 kilograms of 3 major exercises? To them, it’s gum. However, no matter how you look at it, it couldn’t be the behavior of a vampire because he was very happy to achieve that (?).
“Therefore, we were able to conclude that the identity of the beast is not a vampire, but rather a being that has learned the black magic of the blood system related to vampires.”
“He is both a human and a vampire…”
“That is probably why he is even more obsessed with social status and recognition.”
“If so, what are the measures?”
“Everything has already been prepared and is being implemented.”
Rakiel smiled brightly.
“Because all the vampires he was under have been captured, he will not be able to spread the mutation in the future, and I am in the process of treating the mutations that have already spread.”
There will be no way for him now. I won’t give you even one gram of opportunity to show off and show off by curing your mutation.
‘How dare you! Isn’t it polite to not allow businesses in the same industry to overlap?’
Rakiel suddenly remembered a memory from Korea. One day, I remembered an oriental medicine clinic that was on a different floor of the same building. I also remembered the moment I questioned the building owner on the day I found out that the Oriental medicine clinic was opening. Thanks to you, all the dark answers I had to get back.
“….”
Let’s not think of dark memories as often as possible.
Rakiel gave up the feelings he felt at the time and made a new promise. I will easily step on people who interfere with other people’s business by deliberately spreading diseases and giving condescending treatments. I won’t leave even a gap.
“I’m wondering if you could leave the next response to me.”
“….”
The emperor did not readily answer. Instead, he looked at his son with new eyes. The Imperial Intelligence Department is home to the best talent. Her own son, who came to the exact same level of conclusion as they had put their heads together. That amazing and wonderful sight.
‘
Who on earth are you?’
Is this really the helpless and incompetent Rachiel that Jim knew? If not, if you are an unknown entity that Jim does not know about, if it is true, then how should Jim treat you?
I was happy at first.
I was just happy.
But these days, I’ve been getting more and more of an alien feeling that I don’t even want to admit. It was strange. I wanted to deny it.
However, doubts and doubts keep eating away at one side of my heart like poisonous mushrooms. Even if you try to reject it, you have no choice. With the instinctive sense of a person who has become a parent.
However, the emperor did his best to hide his appearance. Rather, he reproached himself.
‘…Tsk Asterion. You foolish bastard. Do you still want to continue to subject your son to severe tests?’
This suspicion is not correct.
Let’s trust our son now.
That would be the only way to atone for the cold treatment he gave his son for such a long time.
So please.
“The crown prince, do as you wish.”
The Emperor’s authority fell.
♣
And at the same time.
The warlock Anansha, who had managed to subdue Javilon at the end of a bloody battle that lasted several days, was left completely devastated and out of breath.
“…omg! “Huh.”
He sat down and managed to laugh. And then I looked across. There was the giant Javilon, kneeling and bowing his head.
‘Just now… it was really dangerous.’
I almost got killed.
What if the last-minute mental control that I took as a gamble failed? Perhaps his head was blown off.
But it worked.
He successfully controlled the mind of a monstrous giant. The secret was simple. He used the person called Military Doctor Lee Han, whom he had been looking for and calling out for countless times. He hypnotized the guy into recognizing him as ‘Surgeon Lee Han.’
“Hehe… Hehehe….”
The hypnosis took effect.
I felt confident.
“I, Surgeon Lee Han, command you to raise your head.”
Anansha faked his voice and gave an order. Javilon’s large shoulders faintly twitched in response to the command.
good night. Since ancient times, the first reaction and rapport are important in hypnosis. This was because the relationship between the person who casted hypnosis and the person who was hypnotized was fixed depending on how the first communication was made.
‘Obey me. hurry!’
Anansha glared at Javilon with a somewhat stern look. Just for a moment. Javilon’s head, which had fallen, slowly lifted up. The blurry eyes turned towards this direction and came into focus.
A murmur soon flows out.
“Rihan… military doctor…?”
It’s a success.
I recognized this person as Army Doctor Lee Han.
Anansha, who gained confidence, gave orders in a more powerful tone. To recognize yourself as the owner. So that the relationship is fixed.
“okay. I am Surgeon Lee Han. So how should you treat me?”
“Surgeon Lee Han….”
“Okay. “Hurry up and tell me.”
“You are mine.”
“…?”
“You…are mine, Doctor Rihan!”
“…to?”
Crumble.
Anansha’s heart sank as she sensed the extract of infinite obsession glowing in Javilon’s eyes.
