The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 344
Episode 344 The truth is more destructive than lies (2)
Raquiel Adria Magentano.
A name that is now mine.
But in reality, it was stolen.
From whom?
From the unfortunate crown prince who dies early in the novel and leaves the country. stole from him I took it as my own and pretended to be him.
Sometimes I even wondered. What happened to the real Rachiel? I wonder where his soul went after his body was taken from me.
But here it was.
It was in my original body.
‘Is this right?’
My heart sank.
The first feelings I felt were regret and guilt. Maybe that was why. I couldn’t believe it when I heard it. No, actually, I didn’t want to believe it.
But the voice coming from inside this body was definitely not in vain.
– Is this correct? Are you asking me now? By the way, who is the Lord who came to save me? Which family’s son is he? Judging by the way you speak, it seems like you didn’t receive a very refined education.
“….”
I graduated from Oriental medicine school.
It was quite a profession.
Rakiel caught the foolish boy who was trying to run away and sat him down. Then he asked the voice that claimed to be the crown prince.
‘Let’s ask about this. Are you really Raquiel Adria Magentano?’
– How dare you!
‘No, it’s shameless and whatnot. You have to consider what you need to consider and confirm what you need to confirm. is not it? How are you? I am the crown prince of the empire! If this is the case, am I supposed to be a child and pretend to be like this? ‘Without checking anything?’
– That’s…
‘Try to prove it. ‘Because I’m embarrassed right now.’
No, actually, I was embarrassed.
I took a pulse to see what state my original body was in, but I never dreamed that I would meet the real crown prince like this.
Could it be that I am seeing nonsense or hearing nonsense? no. That doesn’t seem to be the case.
‘So who are you? ‘Are you really Crown Prince Rachiel?’
– of course! I… do you know how much I suffered?
‘no. I don’t know.’
– ….
‘I don’t know, so please speak up. ‘Don’t just get promoted.’
It is true.
After all, wouldn’t an educated person be expected to resolve his/her position through dialogue rather than just raising his/her voice?
Rachiel asked, and the voice presumed to be that of the crown prince only then calmed down his excitement.
– I…
‘Where are you?’
– This is Raquiel Adria Magentano, Crown Prince of the Empire.
‘No, I mean.’
– therefore? what?
‘Don’t you have something to prove that you are the crown prince?’
– Why do I have to prove it? I am the crown prince and the rightful heir to the empire.
‘And it was destined to conquer the continent. Through the strong body and strength given by God.’
– ….
The voices were silent.
Are you worried?
If the identity of that voice is really Crown Prince Rachiel, he will react in some way to the fishing lure I just threw. And maybe the kind of reaction…
– Unfortunately, I think you’re mistaken about me.
A trace of bitterness was evident in the crown prince’s voice. Or maybe he felt a little offended in some way.
– If not, are you mocking me? Me, who had been sickly since birth and was not even acknowledged by His Majesty? So are you trying to insult me like the ones below are always whispering about? No. Those below you in the villa secretly whisper, but you are even worse than that. Such blatant sarcasm in such a rude manner.
‘No, that’s me…’
– Stop. I don’t want to hear it. If you are here to save me, then carry out your mission. If not, then go back. Even though I didn’t have the appearance of a prince, I wasn’t broken to the point where I had to beg for help from someone who came to ridicule me.
‘Tsk. That’s right.’
– what?
‘No, just. I just threw out a comment to check if you were the crown prince. ‘I didn’t know it would show off this much.’
Rachiel said with a bitter smile. That voice seems to belong to the crown prince. I remembered that prickly and nervous reaction.
Was this the time when he first entered the body of the crown prince? At that time, the maids were very afraid of this place.
‘I heard you sometimes get irritated and beat your maid or valet, right? I also heard that since he didn’t have the energy to beat himself, he had his maids or servants beat him and watched it happen. Am I right?’
– what? That’s…
a voice that is extremely embarrassed by this point.
‘That’s right. Crown Prince Rachiel.’
– ….
I’m sure.
When I touch his health complex, he immediately reacts harshly. He also appears embarrassed when his narrow-minded actions in the past that he is embarrassed to share with others are pointed out.
– …who are you?
‘Rachiel.’
– What… what?
‘I guess you can’t see me. but. Is it because the body that houses you has its eyes closed? So, let me tell you, I am currently inhabiting the body of Rachiel Adria Magentano. ‘For a period of a little over two years.’
– What…
am I shocked?
But I have to tell you what I need to know.
Rachiel spoke, taking care to keep her voice as dry as possible.
It is as if the name of the disease is given to a patient who is starting a war against a major illness. In such cases, you should exclude as much emotion as possible and speak in a dry, everyday tone, just as the patient’s shock will be lessened.
‘And the body that the Crown Prince now resides in is my original body.’
– wait for a sec. then?
‘that’s right. ‘Our bodies have been swapped.’
– ….
The real Crown Prince Rakiel Adria Magentano kept his mouth shut. There were a lot of things I wanted to say, but none of them could come out of my lips.
It’s like their bodies have switched. How should I understand this? How should I accept that?
– I… wandered for two years.
The Prince of Magentano managed to sigh. Suddenly, I remembered the time of wandering I had to go through for about two years.
It was one winter day when I first noticed something strange. Was it the day after it snowed? I was writing a diary in my bedroom. My stomach turned.
A violent cough broke out. Pain that feels like your chest is being squeezed. He was out of breath and spit out something.
When I vomited, I saw black blood. The hemoptysis did not stop. I tried to call my doctor, Sir Gardin. I stretched out my hand to ring the bell. I couldn’t reach it.
Only half a span away. I didn’t have enough arm strength to stretch that much further.
With one hand, I covered the corner of my mouth where blood was bursting out, and with the other hand, I tried to reach out and everything tilted. Soon, the sight before my eyes turned black.
That was the end.
I was completely thrown into a world of darkness. It floated and floated in the shimmering black waves.
Who is talking to you? Someone running to save me? There was no one. I was scared and lonely. Is he dead? Or is it a strange curse?
I didn’t know the answer. I felt like I was going out of my mind. Sometimes, I heard hallucinations that sounded like whispering.
A sound like laughter. A low, insidious murmur. Even the fascinating sound of breathing. At first, I was just scared and covered my ears. Then I found out later.
Bounded.
It was the name of the place where he was floating away. A world located in the gap between this world and the afterlife where humans live. The home and tomb of spirits. A chaotic space where nothing can be alive or dead.
I was desperate.
I resented it.
What crime did you commit? Why did it fall into a place like this? It was even more confusing because I couldn’t figure out the reason.
It was even more gloomy because I didn’t know how long I would have to wander around here. So I wandered around in hopeless despair.
And four days ago.
Suddenly fell here. It was as if someone had rescued me and I was quickly dragged out of the black world.
And as if thrown out, he crash-landed in a new prison. To the world inside the body of someone I don’t even know who they are.
Still, I was happy.
At least it wasn’t a darkness where nothing could be seen, like in a world where one would go crazy. Because I didn’t hear the whispers that shook my mind from time to time. I felt like I was going to live. I smiled for the first time since the day I lost consciousness and vomited blood.
But that smile didn’t last long. This body, whose identity I did not know, did not wake up.
His consciousness within his body was clear, but his body could not open its eyes. It was like being in an eternal sleep.
‘So, although it was hopeless and gloomy, it was only for a moment that I was happy that I had escaped the vast world. When I think about my situation now, it felt like I was trapped in a cramped prison?’
– yes. That’s quick to understand. You are the thief who stole my body.
‘….’
– Why do you do that, thief?
‘No, that’s the name you call me, why is it suddenly so sudden…’
– I’m only telling the exact truth. You took away my body, and thanks to that, I ended up in the state I am in now after wandering for a long time in the world. So wouldn’t it be most appropriate for me to call you a thief?
‘Yes, it’s not appropriate.’
– why?
‘Why? Now the crown prince is also occupying my body without permission.’
– …What?
‘So now that person has also committed theft. If we look at it closely, should we say that it is a situation where both parties are at fault? So, it’s not right for you to unilaterally accuse me of being a thief. is not it?’
– at all!
The voice of the Prince of Magentano exuded a sincere tone.
– Even if they have the same body, their value is different. The body you stole is a body with noble royal blood. But how dare you try to compare them on the same level.
‘Oh really?’
– yes.
‘But did you know that he was going to die in about 90 days?’
– what?
‘Prince, it was said that you would die about 90 days from the day you coughed up blood.’
– ….
The Crown Prince of Magentano fell silent at these honest words.
Well, I guess I had a vague premonition. The only thing he could say was that he wasn’t going to live long.
– But… how are you still alive with my body? Didn’t you say it’s been about two years since you took over my body? But how?
‘Improvement of constitution, recovery of vitality, nourishment and vitality.’
– What?
‘I worked hard to take care of it. To not die. Thanks to you, I was able to live a slightly healthier life and meet you like this. Besides, I don’t think right now is the time for us to argue like this.’
– …What does it mean?
‘If I leave it like this, I think my original body that you’re trapped in will die.’
Rakiel spoke honestly.
In fact, while arguing(?) with the Crown Prince of Magentano, the results of the pulse were revealed.
He read the ‘Comprehensive Findings’ column that appeared below the examination table to the Crown Prince of Magentano.
‘Comprehensive opinion. Overall, it’s a decent body. There are signs of increased gray hair and hair loss due to recent extreme stress. Slight abdominal obesity is detected. This is a typical skinny and obese ET type body. ‘Healthy eating habits and moderate intensity exercise are recommended to prevent adult diseases.’
– …How on earth did you take care of your body? Plus what? Signs of hair loss?
‘That’s not important. There’s more. It gets serious from here.’
I cut off the prince’s protest and continued reading.
‘Also, the current body and the soul residing in it are completely out of sync, and as a result, the energy and energy throughout the body are slowly dissipating. We warn that if this situation does not improve, death may occur after one month due to short pulse phenomenon, in which all Qi vessels in the body are cut off.’
– ….
‘Did you hear?’
– I heard it. Should I believe that?
‘Which is more beneficial if you believe it or not?’
– ….
The Prince of Magentano was silent.
Rakiel sighed deeply.
‘The pulse results don’t lie. So let’s not waste time with useless arguments for the time being. and… Huh?’
Wow!
It was the moment when I was about to tell the Crown Prince of Magentano about my future plans. Suddenly, someone’s vicious hand grabbed my collar.
“who are you.”
“…!”
Burning eyes. My old friend Wonho, who had left the hospital room while answering the phone earlier, came back and was grabbing me by the collar.
