Chapter 271
The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 271
Episode 271 Wrong Encounter (1)
There are many sacred beings in this world.
It hurts my mouth to talk about such respected people as Buddha, Jesus, Allah, Confucius, Mencius, etc. in such an awkward manner. In addition, there are those who take risks to extinguish fires, those who rush to emergency sites, and those who make sacrifices even without any compensation.
Is that all?
How many people continue to volunteer without making a sound or revealing it? Applause and praise to those who donate to society, even if it is not a large amount.
But I….
‘I’m being promoted as an adult? really? real?’
Rachiel frowned slightly.
This is ridiculous. Because I’m not that great of a person. I was just trying to extend my life, which is shorter than the survival(?) period of the salary coming into my bank account.
‘By treating others? By finding a way to successfully catch vampirism?’
Of course, that’s kind of amazing. Even if you think about it yourself, it is the same. But…
“Archbishop?”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
“I’m not that great of a person, am I?”
“I know, Your Majesty.”
“….”
“But Your Highness seems to have understood, to some extent, the meaning of being made a saint.”
“Yeah whatever. of course.”
Yes.
It’s absurd, but I get it anyway.
The fact is that candidating this person as a saint would be of great benefit to the church.
“As far as I know, there are two cases in which the church can nominate someone as a saint. One is a person who is recognized for his or her contribution to exalting God’s will throughout the world through sacred miracles or similar historical achievements. “Right?”
“yes. That’s right, Your Highness.”
“And the second one is… the emperor of our Magentano Empire.”
It was like that.
All previous emperors were canonized as saints of the Holy Order. when? Whenever a coronation ceremony is held. It was automatic, without exception.
“Of course, it can be seen as a kind of honorary position. That’s what I heard. “It is not because the emperor is really holy that he is canonized as a saint, but because he is a saint, it is a candidacy that reflects the church’s request to conduct a politics that is benign and merciful enough to merit being called a saint.”
“That is correct, Your Majesty.”
“Then I guess it won’t be the second time I’m considered a saint. “Because I haven’t been coronated as emperor yet.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
The archbishop nodded.
“Your Highness will be honored not just as an honorary title, but as a true saint who has been recognized for your historical achievements.”
“….”
Was discovering a cure for vampire transformation really that big of a deal?
“You may accept it with honor. “The canonization of saints in the truest sense of the word is something that only happens once or twice every hundred years.”
I know that.
Only once or twice a century.
Sometimes it doesn’t exist.
‘Whew. ‘No joke.’
Rachiel took a deep breath and calmed her excited heart. The news was so unexpected that the duodenal villous artery sent a beat of high blood pressure throughout my body.
But on the other hand, I didn’t hate it.
No, to be honest…
Ding Dong!
[Your five organs and six organs dance in joy at the increase in social honor through being promoted to adulthood.]
[Heart: Yoo-hoo! From now on, I am the heart of a saint!]
[Lungs: Heh! Huff! LOL]
[Captain: Then what do you mean by the grunts I emit?]
[Soy Sauce: What can the grunts be just grunts? LOL]
[Stomach: Did you hope that the grunts made by adults would at least smell like cider? A bit of conscience lol]
[Kidney: But there is also this saying. First of all, pack your ass. You will become famous.]
[Spleen: At a place where you will be honored as a saint?]
[Liver: You will become famous.]
[Heart: Aha.]
[Lungs: Hahahahaha]
[Your five organs and six parts will gain huge social fame. In celebration, we are sponsoring 600 HP.]
[Currently possessed HP: 20300]
“….”
Yes, honestly, it’s good.
Moreover, I seemed to understand the general reason why the church suddenly decided to make such an unconventional saint.
‘It was probably calculated that this would be of great benefit to the church.’
It is true.
The world is never easy. Holy Church? It is foolish to expect such a place to be run purely out of good intentions.
Just like everyone else, religious denominations naturally only choose to do things that will benefit them. The same will apply to this decision.
‘Because I cured vampire mutation using their holy relics. What does it mean to praise my accomplishments and make me a saint? In other words, it means that they will raise up their sacred relics together.’
Thanks to this, the reputation of the church will also increase. In addition, the relationship with the imperial family will become stronger and the relationship will expand. It’s a win-win for both sides.
“Hmm, then… I guess it’s the same thing that you want me to continue using this holy object for treatment instead of returning it right away, right?”
“I may be presumptuous, but yes, Your Majesty.”
The archbishop smiled bitterly.
“As expected, you already noticed without me having to tell you.”
“Yeah whatever. “At least about this.”
…So, of course, the Archbishop did not take out the pistol he had hidden in his chest while reciting the cliché line, “I don’t like quick-witted people.”
Instead, the archbishop smiled even more kindly.
“Your Majesty is probably aware that this elevation to sainthood is not a pure intention. It must have been a decision that was largely influenced by political interests. But even though you noticed that, you were so willing to be happy…”
“Thank you?”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
“On the contrary, it is something for which I am grateful. “It will benefit me too.”
“Haha, is that so?”
“Sure.”
Rakiel grinned.
In his brain, he thought, ‘An opportunity to receive medical treatment from a holy saint certified and commended by the Holy Order! ‘Don’t miss out!’ was the oriental medicine clinic’s promotional slogan.
‘If we promote this well, we can grow the Byeolgung Oriental Medical Clinic even more!’
More patients.
More bonus lives.
For that, medical schools need to hire more doctors.
“Then when will the official announcement of his elevation to adulthood be made?”
“It probably won’t take a few days, Your Highness.”
The Archbishop’s answer became very real.
It was just three days later.
Rakiel, who was drawing on the cupping marks of a patient suffering from vampirism in the clinic, received a sudden call from the emperor.
“Crown Prince Raquiel Adria Magentano dares to meet His Majesty the Emperor, the rightful ruler of this land.”
“Greetings have been made. “Have you heard any news?”
“I apologize. “I don’t know what kind of news you are telling me, Your Majesty.”
“The look on your face when you say that makes me think you already know.”
“From the way your Majesty says that, I think it’s not bad news.”
“You’re shameless.”
“I apologize, Your Majesty.”
Rakiel gave up the joke.
The emperor’s cold eyes flashed in his mind.
“You must have received information from the archbishop in advance, right?”
“I apologize for that too, Your Majesty.”
“okay. I must apologize. “You should feel a heavy sense of guilt and hit your head on the floor, begging for mercy and begging for forgiveness for your sins.”
“…yes?”
“I received a message from the Holy Church this morning. “They decided to canonize you as a saint?”
“That’s right, Your Majesty.”
“But even if you heard such good news first, didn’t you tell Jim about it?”
“….”
“Even if you come across such an unfortunate situation first, do you enjoy it to yourself without telling it to your luggage?”
“….”
“Do you know your sins?”
“Over there…”
“Say it. “If only I had the face and mouth to speak.”
“All this good news and happiness comes thanks to Your Majesty.”
“under. “Now how dare you say such trivial things out of your mouth.”
“….”
That guy is pissed. I was upset.
Rachiel smiled bitterly beneath her lowered head.
“Well, next time, I will be careful to prevent something like this from happening again, Your Majesty.”
“This kind of thing? what?”
“If I hear good news first, I will definitely run to you like the wind and be the first to tell you, Your Majesty.”
“There is no need for such wishes.”
“Nevertheless, I will knock on Your Majesty’s locked door and tell you, even from outside, Your Majesty.”
“That door has already been broken down.”
“…Uh oh.”
“What did you just say?”
“Oh no. “I almost sneezed for a moment, but I barely held it back, Your Majesty.”
“It didn’t sound like it at all to me.”
“….”
“Anyway, I ask you not to be arrogant.”
“I will keep this in mind, Your Majesty.”
Fortunately(?), did this flattery work? The emperor’s sad expression seemed to have eased a little. Rachiel was relieved and lowered her head again.
But his reassurance was just another name for letting down his guard.
“I also ask you to never think of yourself as something special.”
“I will also keep that in mind, Your Majesty.”
“This is not just a simple request.”
“yes?”
“You actually don’t have any great qualities, do you?”
“….”
“What is so great about someone who lets someone else hear the good news that only happens once in a lifetime without even telling it to his father?”
“….”
Just send me into exile.
Rachiel felt like crying.
But even then, I could clearly see and feel it. The emperor was very happy. If there were no eyes to see, I would have been dancing right here. No, maybe I started dancing when I was alone. Maybe it was.
Even though he looks like that on the outside, he is a very affectionate person. It’s just that the way of expression is very, very flawed and clumsy.
“Anyway, I tell you, from now on, you must be more careful in your conduct to live up to the reputation of a saint.”
“I understand, Your Majesty.”
After being beaten so hard in the stomach with such greedy congratulations and requests for praise, I was barely able to be released(?).
It was from then on.
With the cooperation of the imperial family and the church, preparations for the canonization ceremony proceeded at the speed of light.
Meanwhile, Rakiel led a busy life every day. Patients with vampirism were treated throughout the clinic hours from morning to evening.
Most of them used the newly acquired cupping skill ‘Cupping Mark Artist’ option. Of course, in the meantime, they did not forget to use the religious relics of the church. It was a service to promote the denomination that became our business sponsor(?).
Meanwhile, time passed steadily. One day, two days, four days, ten days and then a full moon followed by a month.
Finally, a large man appeared in the Imperial Plaza Frontera, where the morning event for the canonization ceremony was being prepared.
“…is this place? “A place to carry out a memorial service in honor of Army Surgeon Lee Han’s wishes.”
Javilon, a fallen rebel from the past, looked up at the canonization podium with dangerous eyes flashing in the crowd.
