Chapter 332
The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 332
Episode 332 Dragon King Berkis (2)
Unemployed person in the corner of the room.
However, he is unemployed and has a lot of money.
The ambition or wannabe dream that is buried deep in all of our hearts like a wild ginseng root.
It was the same for Rachiel. I lived hard in Korea. I also opened my own oriental medicine clinic. It wasn’t a bad life. Still, I was always jealous. who? The building owner.
‘That man’s life was truly a miserable life.’
It was not long after the opening of the Oriental Medicine Clinic. There was a day when I happened to ride the elevator together with the building owner. I heard a little about the building owner’s daily routine that day.
Wake up at 9 am.
Take a quick shower or eat breakfast until around 10 o’clock.
Go to the screen golf course at 11 o’clock.
After lunch at 1 o’clock, I took a look around the commercial building. However, in reality, building management is left to a professional company, so you do not have to do anything yourself. Even company salary payments and corporate tax settlement are all left to tax accountants.
That was the end.
Did you say that in the afternoon, if you have plans to meet someone or play golf, you go there, and if not, you go for a drive in an open-top Porche 999.mk2 sports car or watch a movie at home?
“….”
I’m jealous.
Even thinking about it now makes my mouth water.
But the Dragon King Berkis, lying spread out in front of me right now… looked similar.
‘It’s similar. It’s definitely similar. No, is that a distant upgrade of the building owner?’
I guess it seems like that. A sofa placed in the middle of the vast cavity of the Demon Dragon Cave. Dragon King Berkis was lying there like a towel thrown carelessly.
Of course, from the outside, he just looked like an ordinary human male. If you look at the blank, unfocused eyes under his blue-silver hair, he was definitely an unemployed person in the corner of his room.
However, the moment he encountered him, the Vampire Lord saluted him at the speed of light.
“It’s been a while, Dragon King.”
“….”
A well-defined greeting.
But the Dragon King had no response. Not a single eyelash or even a pore on the cheek was scratched, let alone the pupils. But for some reason, the Vampire Lord seemed unaffected by the Dragon King’s blatant disregard.
No, rather…
“Congratulations. The Dragon King has allowed you to enter the Demon Dragon’s Cave.”
“yes?”
“Because even though I saluted him, he didn’t kill me.”
“Yes…?”
What does this mean again?
But there was no time to ask anything. This was because the Vampire Lord poured out quick requests in a strangely urgent tone.
“Listen carefully from now on. You succeeded in entering the Demon Dragon’s Cave. It means that you have been acknowledged as a guest. So from now on, you will be able to use everything here in Demon Dragon Cave, whether it is a restaurant or lodging, as if it were your own home. Because you are literally a guest. Oh, and there’s no need to show the letter of recommendation you received from the armored dragon. If you are the Dragon King, you would have already sensed this. Do you have any more questions? No? I understand. Then I’m done. Oh and-”
“Det…?”
“This is what you summoned me to do this time. Since I wasn’t able to provide any direct help, let’s assume that the opportunity to receive my help was not wasted. This means that you will be able to use the pendant to summon me once again. Thank you, right? I think so too. Well then, really, that’s enough. See you next time.”
“Oh, that…”
Pow!
It was before I could even say anything.
After quickly finishing what he had to say, Lord Hildert transformed into a bat. And in an instant, it flew towards the exit of the Demon Dragon Cave.
Or should I say flight.
‘what.’
The Vampire Lord clearly seemed very anxious just now. And that was exactly from the time I encountered the Dragon King Berkis.
Could it be that the Dragon King has stabbed me? No, what should I say more than that? It’s a speed of urgency similar to that of a woman who once saw my face on a blind date and then disappeared at the speed of light.
“….”
Let’s not use the analogy of being depressed for nothing.
Rakiel shook off the slightly gloomy memories and the embarrassment of the current situation. And then I looked at Dragon King Berkis, who was still sprawled out on the sofa.
It’s a little embarrassing that the Vampire Lord ran away, but first, let’s say hello.
“Nice to meet you, great dragon king. “My name is human Rachiel Adria Magentano.”
I bowed my head politely. I tapped the Dragon King’s eardrums with a simple comment that was not offensive. And then they waited for the dragon king’s response.
“….”
I waited.
“….”
I waited.
“….”
I’m waiting.
“….”
Why is there no reaction?
“….”
I just glanced down with my head down.
I looked at the Dragon King.
But it stayed the same.
‘Write. ‘Nothing has changed since before?’
The Dragon King was still in the same position, sprawled out on the sofa like a wet towel. It wasn’t just that it didn’t move. Even the openness of the eyelids, the unfocused gaze, and the angles of the limbs and toes hanging haphazardly were the same as before.
Before and after receiving the greeting.
If you tried to find the difference between the two images, it seemed like there would be no difference at all.
‘what? Why is there no reaction? ‘Did I do something wrong?’
Slowly, worry began to creep in. Because dragons are different from humans. Among them, the Dragon King is the strongest being. I wondered if there was some kind of etiquette or greeting that was special to the Dragon King.
But Rakiel soon shook his head.
‘no. That’s not right.’
If there were any special etiquette or comments, the Vampire Lord would have told them. No, he must have used it himself to say hello.
But the vampire lord from earlier did not do that. When leaving, they didn’t even give me any advice on how to greet people. So, I guess it’s not like I forgot my instructions.
‘Write it. What is it really?’
Rachiel still looked at the Dragon King with his head down. About 3 minutes like that? Did I wait in silence, rolling my eyes?
I thought it wouldn’t work, so I said hello again.
“It is truly an honor for a lowly human being to welcome a great being, Dragon King!”
I tightened my sphincter and let out a heavy baritone voice. But the Dragon King still had no reaction.
“….”
I’m sure he’s not dead.
I wondered if it was possible.
I slowly woke up.
I approached the Dragon King.
Acupoint scanning? I wanted to try it, but I held back. Since it is a technology that detects mana, there was concern that the Dragon King, the best expert on mana, would sense that he was being scanned.
‘It’s a bit weird to detect someone without permission from the first moment and then get caught.’
In the worst case, you may incur the wrath of the Dragon King. Therefore, scanning is prohibited. Instead, let’s take a closer look.
‘Be careful.’
Perhaps I will go against the wishes of the Dragon King. Could it be that the Dragon King gets his ugly fur? In the middle of the night, without my mother’s knowledge, I moved slowly at a rate of 1 centimeter per second, as if I was reaching for the quail egg tapa container in the refrigerator. And it approached to a distance of about 3 meters.
There, I felt a strain on my eyeballs.
I focused all my eyes on the Dragon King’s nostrils. Then it appeared. The fluff that grows inside the nostrils of Dragon King Berkis. It was moving ever so slightly with my breathing.
‘Write it. ‘He’s not dead.’
After confirming, he quickly retreated, not daring to touch the Dragon King. My mind became more complicated.
‘what. ‘Why is there no response?’
Are you ignoring it? Or is it some kind of test? No, when I think about it, it suddenly occurred to me. I once heard it from a back-armored dragon. The Vampire Lord was like that too. Dragon King Berkis loves naps so much.
“….”
Are you really just being unemployed in the corner of your room and just ignoring this?
It was around that time when I had that thought.
“…Ugh.”
An unusual sound was heard from Damian. When I turned around, I saw that the guy didn’t look good. My heart suddenly sank.
‘Blood sugar trouble?’
It seemed like that. I quickly started with the pulse. I knew it. While I was leaving from the Oriental Medicine Clinic at the villa and arriving here, my blood sugar level shot up.
“It will sting.”
I took the insulin injection I took out of my backpack and inserted it into the guy’s abdomen. How does Damien feel? The guy bit his lower lip.
“…I have no shame, Your Majesty.”
“no. Is it better than that?”
“Yes, a little. Just…”
“Just?”
“I still feel dizzy.”
“I guess so. “Let’s eat some of this first.”
I fed him the chocolate he had brought in his arms. This was because there was a risk of hypoglycemic shock due to the insulin injection.
‘This… is the biggest pain of type 1 diabetes patients.’
If you don’t take insulin on time, your blood sugar levels will skyrocket. All organs in the body, including the liver and kidneys, become completely damaged and exposed to all kinds of complications.
So what if you take insulin?
It’s not the end.
This disease is not such an easy opponent.
When you take insulin, your blood sugar level drops, exposing you to the risk of hypoglycemic shock. It’s not just about feeling a little dizzy. If you screw up, you die. To some extent, it is not uncommon for people to die from hypoglycemia while sleeping after taking insulin.
‘There is no middle. You have to walk a precarious tightrope, constantly going back and forth between life-threatening high and low blood sugar levels. ‘And that too for a lifetime.’
But Damian ended up in this situation. In the original Demon Sword Emperor, he was not driven to this level of desperation. How did this happen?
Rakiel requested, hiding his bitter expression.
“Don’t worry about eating slowly, just chew and swallow comfortably. Chocolate raises blood sugar levels slowly due to the fat it contains. That’s why I feed it this.”
“…All right.”
“okay. “Then let’s find a comfortable place to rest.”
Rachiel supported Damian. And on the other hand, I glanced at the Dragon King Berkis. The Dragon King still had no reaction. It just looked exactly the same as before.
Is there a way to break that laziness?
I got a little confused.
I wanted to ask the person involved, but I was frustrated because there was no way I would get an answer. To be honest, I found it a little bit disgusting. If you can, hit me on the back of the head to tell me to get up!
“….”
Let’s focus on urgent matters for now.
Rachiel asked Damian, correcting his temper that was about to become rough.
“are you okay? “Can you walk?”
“Yes…. Thanks to your highness….”
“Yes. “Let’s hold on a little longer.”
First of all, the urgent priority is to let Damian rest. And I need to find a restaurant too. It won’t be easy to get help from the Dragon King, who is steeped in laziness. Because it might take a lot longer than you think. The food I brought to feed Damian might run out first.
‘But… where is the restaurant?’
I looked around the inside of the Demon Dragon Cave.
The cavity here was truly vast. It must have been made to be convenient when the Dragon King moves in the form of the dragon’s true form.
The problem was that numerous doors were visible along the perimeter of the huge cavity. Even if you roughly count, the number appears to be over 100.
“…use it.”
Should I open them all? It seemed like it would take at least a day or two to check each passageway that would continue behind it. It felt distant.
But that was then.
“Cologne?”
An unfamiliar sound was heard from behind.
It feels like some kind of animal is roaring. Or maybe it feels like he’s talking to me. At the same time, I can feel the peculiar presence of something huge approaching.
‘what?’
I looked back reflexively.
And then we suddenly bumped into each other.
“Corolong?”
“uh?”
Pure white mane.
8 meters tall.
The huge magical beast Manticore was looking down and licking its lips.
