The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 371

Episode 371 Things that happened while you were away (2)

“According to the opinions of the nurses… it is because His Highness was absent of his own accord….”

“….”

What is this? Really.

Rachiel hurriedly walked to the princess’s hospital room. And I felt it as I arrived in front of the hospital room. The air in the hallway felt different only in the hospital room where the princess was.

gulp.

Is this living? Or is it a numbing chill? I knocked, feeling some strange force.

“This is the director. “I’m going in.”

There was no answer from inside.

Instead, a sign was heard.

I opened the door.

The first person to welcome them was not Princess Adeline, but her uncle, the half-elf general Edouard.

“It’s been a long time, Prince. I saw you coming back to the villa earlier through the window. “The way he bustled and gathered people.”

“….”

Unlike when the gentleman’s stomach ulcer was completely cured, he became a little irritable. He said hello, but he seemed to be trying to suppress his dissatisfaction. The way he looked at me was the same.

“So are you fully back now?”

“yes. Fortunately.”

Rachiel did not react much to the general’s harsh attitude. In fact, it was because I fully understood why the general did what he did.

‘They probably think I neglected the princess.’

I looked away.

A hospital bed placed by the window of the VVIP hospital room. There, sitting there, was a princess wearing a hospital gown. But her eyes were always focused out the window. It wasn’t even about seeing people walking around outside the window.

It’s just a profile view of the clouds flowing through the blue sky.

“….”

Could it be that I was suffering from depression? They say the princess completely stopped eating and drinking, so I guess that wasn’t an exaggeration. Rachiel cleared her throat and carefully greeted me.

“Princess? “I’m back.”

“….”

As expected, the princess showed no reaction. General Édouard, who was nearby, gave the answer on his behalf.

“The Crown Prince suffered a lot during his absence.”

“Was there anything special that happened?”

“yes.”

“What kind of incident is this?”

“The crown prince was away. As soon as I trusted the crown prince and was hospitalized for rehabilitation treatment. “It’s only been a few days.”

“….”

“At first, I thought he would come back in about three or four days. But it turned out not to be true.”

“….”

I lose face. Rachiel looked at the princess’s profile with a slightly embarrassed feeling.

It was truly unavoidable that this person was absent. The timing of the Type 1 diabetes that the King of Demons inflicted on Damian was truly exquisite. If this had been an online fighting game, the timing would have been such that the opponent would have complimented him by saying, ‘You play the game so well.’

So I went all the way to Korea to solve the problem, but I ended up unintentionally neglecting the princess.

Of course, he had no intention of making excuses. Because it would be meaningless in the first place.

“I’m sorry princess. “I mean it.”

“….”

Only then did Adeline react. Her gaze fell from looking at the clouds. She slowly looked back at Rachiel. For a long time without saying a word.

Meanwhile, she thought.

I was very anxious and gloomy.

It was like that the entire time the crown prince was away. It was even more so because he disappeared right after I trusted him and decided to undergo rehabilitation treatment and be hospitalized.

As each day passed, I felt empty. Because I can’t see him? I don’t know. However, what is certain is that quitting training, which I had done every day since childhood, came as a bigger shock than I thought.

“….”

It wasn’t like that when the crown prince helped with rehabilitation. There was no time to feel the emptiness and emptiness of not being able to train.

I became increasingly anxious. The longer I could not train, the more fear came to me. If I continue to rest in a hospital bed like this, if I only focus on tedious rehabilitation, will I be able to recover my former skills later even after my shoulder heals?

I wasn’t sure. No, I wondered if my skills were gradually regressing even as I was doing this. Every time that happened, I became more and more anxious. But there was nothing that could be done. No, the only thing that can be done is rehabilitation training, which has no promise.

When will everything be better? Once I get better, will I be able to train like before? No one told me. No, I couldn’t. The werewolf nurses were like that too. They were kind, but they couldn’t instill any more hope.

In this way, my heart gradually burned with anxiety, impatience, worry, and impatience. I had trouble sleeping and lost my appetite. My motivation disappeared. Rehabilitation training also became sloppy.

I felt strange about myself like that, but in a way, I felt like I was being foolish, so I tried to blame myself, but the helplessness that came over me exerted more control than I could have imagined.

And today the crown prince returned.

Is it nice to see you?

no.

I don’t know.

It seems a bit resentful. On the other hand, I also want to stand up and argue with him right away. But, somewhere in my heart, I want to smile brightly to welcome him. It’s so complicated and subtle that I don’t know what to do. Just like that.

In the end, what Adeline chose was silence. It was because he didn’t know what he would say if he opened his mouth like this.

So I waited.

I have to wait. I was waiting for the crown prince’s words. This guy’s reckless mouth gets ahead of his thoughts again.

“Shall we walk a little?”

Adeline said this unconsciously and was surprised herself. Of course, she barely managed to hide her surprise. I just got impatient. Could it be that the crown prince refuses?

Fortunately, that didn’t happen.

“yes. “As much as you want.”

Rachiel nodded, feeling relieved. It wasn’t right. I was worried that someone would throw a punch at me after being stuffed in the hospital room and wandering around without saying a word for several days. Fortunately, the princess’s rule over the government did not lead to a diplomatic catastrophe.

He quickly agreed to Adeline’s suggestion to go for a walk. And even the shoes were brought under the hospital bed.

The following walk was difficult. Of course, the garden as a walking course was peaceful. The trees and flowers that the best gardeners worked hard to cultivate were beautiful, and the well-paved paths were extremely comfortable to walk on. However, the expressionless expression and silence of the princesses walking side by side made all the previous elements fade.

“….”

She was silent the entire time she was walking. I noticed it. This was because I could guess the psychological changes she must have experienced while she was away.

‘It’s probably similar to the depression that athletes experience when they get injured and go through rehabilitation.’

Fear of declining skills.

Anxiety about recovering skills.

I was nervous about whether I could rest like this.

‘And since the doctor in charge suddenly left his seat, I must have felt anxious and anxious and went into a critical situation.’

I could understand her depressed appearance. I felt sorry and responsible. After all, he is his own patient who trusted him and was admitted to the hospital.

You need to change your mood. You need to heal your mentality. This is especially true for smooth rehabilitation in the future. This is because a healthy mentality is an essential element in rehabilitation training.

‘of course. ‘Only when you are mentally healthy can you be motivated, motivate yourself, and actively participate in rehabilitation.’

That’s more important than you think. It’s not just the psychological aspect. In fact, there have been numerous research results showing that people with a positive mentality have better body immunity and self-recovery ability than those without a positive mentality.

‘So first, let’s start with mental recovery.’

Chop chop!

Rachiel moistened her lips without the princess knowing. And he quietly gave her various suggestions to relieve her depression.

“Hey princess?”

“….”

“I said that because the weather is nice today….”

“….”

“Do you want to go shopping?”

“….”

Is it a failure?

But it is too early to give up.

“Then princess?”

“….”

“Would you like me to hold a shield and give you a daily punching bag?”

“….”

“You don’t want to hurt your shoulder, so just kick it. You might feel better if you practice it a bit. how is it?”

“….”

She is still just walking in silence.

Rachiel squeezed her head.

“Well then, would you like to say the last word?”

“….”

“If you’re going to do it, princess, go first.”

“nightfall.”

“….”

ah.

Rakiel let out a sigh. On the one hand, he could tell. I can’t reach out to the princess who is in a quagmire mentality with clumsy attempts or words. No, maybe his idea of fixing her mentality was arrogant.

When I thought about it, it was like that.

It was your own fault. What on earth are you trying to fix? Rather than that, wouldn’t his sincere apology and conversation be a priority?

“Uhm, I’ll say it again… I’m really sorry. “Without excuses.”

“….”

“I won’t say that I had no choice. Also, I will not say that I understand the princess’s feelings. “That would be a lie.”

“….”

“To tell you my truth, I hope that the princess completes her rehabilitation safely.”

“….”

“So, if I wasn’t a princess who punched and screamed without hesitation like before, it made me think that it would have been perfect if she had been a boxer of wind luck who goes around having street fights with ogres at the foot of a mountain somewhere, and I wish I had done that. ”

“….”

“That’s just my honest opinion. So, I want to do my best to help the princess so that her skills do not decline.”

“…is that so.”

“yes.”

For the first time, the princess’s answer came back correctly. But Rachiel exercised self-control. He didn’t make a fuss or react unusually to her answer. He simply expressed his thoughts calmly and honestly, just like he always did.

“So, since it just occurred to me, how about teaching someone during the rehabilitation period?”

“Teaching…?”

“yes.”

“Me?”

“yes.”

I nodded.

I said what was on my mind.

“Sometimes, in the process of teaching others, you can sort out things you didn’t know or were stuck on, and your skills and understanding actually improve. Regardless of field. “So did I.”

“And the crown prince?”

“yes.”

Of course, it was in Korea.

Anyway.

“You won’t be able to do intense training during the rehabilitation period, so this is an alternative method. “It’s good for everyone, so I think teaching the princess the fighting skills she learned will probably be helpful in maintaining or improving her skills.”

I really hoped so.

I really hoped so.

Did that wind blow through? Or maybe I went through it too tightly(?).

“yes. Okay.”

The princess immediately nodded. He agreed so quickly, without showing the slightest hint of concern, that it actually left me dumbfounded for a moment.

“yes?”

“I’ll teach you.”

“yes?”

“Basic bare-handed fighting techniques of the Amboise royal family.”

“To me?”

“It is a secret that can only be mastered if you practice it harshly until just before you die.”

“….”

“Then I hope you follow along. “Prince of Magentano.”

“….”

For the first time, the princess smiled as brightly as a flower bud. But why does that smile look like it belongs to someone who is determined to kill?

And why do I get goosebumps?
