The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 359
Episode 359 SARS-CoV-2 (2)
[WARNING!]
[Massively multiplied coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2:GH type) virus has been detected in your body.]
[Corona incubation period ends.]
[You are infected with coronavirus. Infected!]
“….”
I don’t know what to say.
Should I say it is elaborate? Should I say this is absurd? If not, would it be appropriate to nitpick by saying it was like this?
Ding dong!
[The five organs and six parts are shocked by the spread of the virus.]
[Heart: Ugh, the lungs are strange!]
[Lungs: …Hehehe? Hehehe? Huh?]
[Captain: Brother Lung, don’t lose your courage, right?]
[Soy Sauce: Aren’t you talking about a container like a Tupperware container that holds food, etc.?]
[Stomach: Somehow, a lot of food came in.]
[Kidney: That’s not true hahaha. They say we’re going to die, hahaha, we have to do something haha]
[Spleen: Corona took care of Rachiel, so don’t worry! Haha]
[The five intestines and six departments declare a state of emergency.]
[The five intestines and six departments pray for your survival and give you 500 HP was sponsored.]
[Currently owned HP: 8200]
The five organs and six parts are already freaking out. Seeing their reactions really hit home. I remembered the first day I arrived in Korea. okay. I walked around for half a day without a mask. I covered my mouth with my sleeve and visited all the local pharmacies.
‘Probably back then…’
I think I caught coronavirus. Considering the incubation period and onset time, that time seemed the most likely. But that didn’t matter now.
Ding dong!
[The coronavirus that invades your body has a strong contagious ability. We recommend that you practice appropriate isolation and social distancing to prevent the spread to people around you.] [ Also, the coronavirus may cause unexpected abnormal symptoms when infected with non-human species, so please be especially careful.]
First, without saying a word, take the mask out of your pocket .
I took it out and wrote it. Was it because of their actions? Damian next to me tilted his head.
“majesty?”
“Stay back Damian.”
“yes?”
“I think I got caught. A plague from the other world.”
“yes? no way.”
“Yes, that’s true. And maybe-”
Dragon King Berkis too.
Rachiel distanced himself from Damian. And then I looked back at Dragon King Berkis. The Dragon King was already looking this way with suspicious eyes.
“What did you just say? Epidemic?”
“yes. sorry.”
“are you okay. “I don’t get those infectious diseases and I don’t die.”
“But this infectious disease is the most virulent ever. I think the Dragon King has already been affected.”
Rakiel calmly revealed his guess. One of the Dragon King’s eyebrows frowned slightly.
“Me? In a pandemic?”
“yes. Maybe that’s why the magic…”
“It doesn’t seem to be working?”
“I guess yes.”
There is no other way to explain it. This is because the Dragon King, who was fine, and a being who could be said to be the pinnacle of magic, faced an unprecedented situation where he failed to cast magic for the first time in his long dragon life. But at the same time, a coronavirus infection notification appeared for this person.
Is this really a coincidence?
no.
Rather…
“It’s probably related. “I want to confirm.”
“Confirmation. how?”
“Can I take your pulse?”
“Tsk. plaguy.”
“sorry.”
An annoyed look appeared on the Dragon King’s face. But I can’t help it. If the coronavirus is really having some kind of effect on the Dragon King, countermeasures must be taken. To do that, we’ll have to start with a diagnosis.
‘What kind of lightning is this?’
I suppressed an inward sigh and carefully touched the Dragon King’s wrist.
‘Jinmaek.’
Ding dong!
[Begin taking pulse.]
[Scanning.]
[3… 2… 1…]
[The pulse results have been received.]
[Please check the
below.]
[Comprehensive Checkup Table]
[ Examination target: Verkis]
[Race: Dragon]
[Gender: Male]
[Age: 2517 years old]
[Height: 183.2cm (+25172cm)]
[Weight: 71.6kg (+9036101kg)]
[Blood type: Dg+ B]
Huge number. A thought came to mind. The numbers in parentheses probably represent the dragon’s body length and weight.
So what about the comprehensive opinion section?
[Comprehensive opinion: This body is close to God in all aspects. All circulation in the body is in perfect harmony. The outer shell is so strong that even if a supernova explodes right in front of you, you will only suffer minor abrasions. However, the immune system has recently allowed the infiltration of an unfamiliar coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2:GH type) from another dimension. This virus can be fatal to humans, but poses no threat to the health and life of dragons. However, it may cause magic incapacity until the virus is destroyed. Also, in the case of dragons, unlike humans, it is impossible to naturally cure the coronavirus, and without the help of an appropriate treatment, they will have to live with the virus for the rest of their lives.]
… Found it.
“Hey Dragon King?”
“huh. Tell me. But before that, can you please let go of me holding your wrist? “Are you giving me goosebumps?”
“Ah yep.”
I hastily withdrew the hand that was checking my pulse.
And he informed me of the pulse results.
“sorry. “The Dragon King was infected with the coronavirus that I caught.”
“Yeah, so?”
“It seems like that’s why you’ve become unable to use magic.”
“Yeah, so?”
“First of all, fortunately, you won’t have any other symptoms. “These are symptoms that pose a threat to health or life.”
“Yeah, I’m glad?”
“yes. But…”
“But?”
“It’s a big deal that you can’t use magic.”
“Big deal?”
“yes.”
“That’s strange. “Isn’t this a big deal only for you?”
“yes?”
Rakiel suddenly raised his head. The Dragon King was smiling meaningfully as he looked this way.
“They said that the virus would not affect my health or life. “I just said I won’t be able to use magic until I’m completely healed.”
“Oh yeah.”
“Then that’s it. “I just need to sleep for a month or two until I get better.”
“The problem is that it is impossible.”
“huh?”
The Dragon King stared at me as if asking what I was talking about. I said it without avoiding his eyes.
“Natural healing will not be possible. I don’t know the exact reason either. “It’s probably because he’s a dragon, not a human… because the virus works that way in the dragon’s body.”
“What are you talking about? “Is that the right diagnosis?”
“yes.”
“I don’t believe it.”
“If you do that, you’ll be in big trouble.”
“Specifically? “I think if I study for a few years, I can make a cure without the help of magic.”
“Meanwhile, what about the Dragon Queen?”
“…what?”
“I understand that the Dragon Queen is a human being like me.”
“….”
scary.
It’s seriously scary.
The way Dragon King Berkis looked at me felt more murderous than any look I had ever experienced. But I had to say what I had to say. Because it is a responsibility and an obligation.
“There will be no harm to the Dragon King, but the Dragon Queen may be in danger.”
“so? “We need to treat the kid before he comes back?”
“yes. “Definitely.”
“how?”
“I still don’t know that…”
“You don’t know?”
“sorry.”
He said it honestly. Corona cure? I don’t know. no. Is there anyone on earth who knows that? Even though leading pharmaceutical companies poured a huge amount of money and the best researchers worked hard, a treatment for Corona has not yet been properly developed. So, could it be different here?
“I am truly sorry. “I don’t know yet.”
“Not yet?”
“yes.”
“Then what if you give me time?”
“I will try my best.”
“….”
Berkis withdrew his murderous gaze towards Rachiel. To be honest, I almost killed this person impulsively a little while ago. If Rachiel had first worried about the problem of insulin duplication due to the inability to use magic when diagnosing Corona, he would have definitely killed her.
But this person, Rachiel, did not do that. Rather, he was worried about his wife. Even though it must have been difficult for him to not be able to get a copy of the insulin he brought with him after going to another level. Even though you may be filled with feelings of despair inside. He didn’t show any such sign.
I liked that.
“Hmm. okay. i get it. In fact, your eyes are probably dark as well. “I can no longer receive insulin copy services.”
“That…”
“I know everything. “Did you say that the expiration date of the insulin sample I brought was about 13 days away?”
“yes.”
“They would have to treat me and get copy services in there, and that would be the hardest part.”
“no. it’s okay. In the case of the Trezeo I brought, it can last up to 6 weeks if stored at a temperature of 15-29℃ after opening. So, including the expiration date of 13 days before opening, there are about 8 weeks left. Just…”
“Just?”
“I’m most worried because the Dragon King is a dragon.”
“In what sense are you worried?”
“This is because we cannot know how to treat them because their constitution is different from that of humans. “I don’t know if we can find a cure before the Dragon Queen returns.”
Rakiel spoke honestly.
“But I will do my best. This is the virus I brought with me. So no matter what happens, I will take responsibility until the end.”
I meant it.
I was careless. When I returned to Korea, I had no idea that the coronavirus was still rampant.
It had to be that way. Having spent almost two years in this dimension, I assumed Korea would be the same. I couldn’t even imagine that I would have returned to the point where it had only been three days since I fell off the Yanghwa Bridge.
So, when I saw people on the roadside wearing masks, at first I thought they were wearing masks because it was winter and because of the fine dust like before. Then, after visiting my first pharmacy, I realized that the coronavirus had not yet disappeared from Korea.
At the time, did you think it was too late?
But that’s no excuse. I was careless. Obvious mistake. That’s it. It is lame to use the point of return as an excuse. It’s not right. Rachiel lowered her head with the intention of letting go of everything.
Berkis liked that about Rachiel.
“under. “It’s responsibility.”
The corners of the Dragon King’s mouth rose.
“okay. If you say that much, I understand. Let me vent my anger too. “Because we are the only ones infected, and it seems like we have a shared fate now.”
“yes? A common destiny?”
“Hmm. Should I say that we are all in the same boat? You need to get a copy of your insulin sample. I’m a kid… no, I have to finish treatment for the virus before my wife comes back. That’s why. Since this has already happened, how about we do research together?”
“You mean research together?”
“Corona treatment research. how is it?”
“…thank you!”
The Dragon King was not angry, but instead expressed his intention to cooperate. It felt like I had unexpectedly received tremendous support in the midst of despair. Rachiel clenched her fists in sincere gratitude.
Until then, Rakiel didn’t know. I wonder how much the Dragon King had this same research style.
