The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 409
Episode 409 Treatment for non-believers (1)
Preparations for the operation to destroy the radioactive Bone Dragon have begun. All of the ‘dusty construction’, which was the actual core of the preparations, was left to the mayor.
It was natural.
We don’t know the detailed structure of this city and copper mine. I am not an expert in construction. When I was in my 20s, I worked at a human resources agency a few times as part-time work, but that was it. The blood of a genius estate planner running through the Magentano royal family? Unfortunately, blood does not do construction work. It comes from study and seasoned experience.
“So, I guess you left all the hard work to Mayor Breda. All right. Hmm.”
“…hey? Damien?”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
“Why is the summary like that?”
“Of course it has to happen like this.”
“why?”
“Because it is an absolute fact.”
“If you think about it, it’s a reasonable decision.”
“Is that so.”
“yes.”
“Why?”
“lets think. It’s a question of whether the entire city will be blown up or destroyed by a single mine. “This situation right now.”
Rachiel walked side by side with Damian and laughed. Is it because I took off my shielding armor for the first time in a long time? Or is it the result of experiencing the power(?) of the shower? My whole body felt refreshed and light as if I was flying.
“Furthermore, the market failed to suggest any alternative other than the method of destroying the Bone Dragon that I suggested. So, you have no choice but to follow my strategy.”
“Therefore, from the castle gate, which is the point of entry for the Bone Dragon, to the entrance to the mine, demolition of the urban area along the expected movement route, expansion of the main street, preparation of air-raid shelters for citizens to stay in, expansion of the tunnel inside the mine, construction of an escape route for explosion traps and bait to be installed at the end of the mine, we are doing our best in the entire process. We will mobilize all our capabilities to prepare. So, what I’m saying is that I just need to work hard to check whether the preparations are progressing well.”
“Ding dong deng. That’s it. Hey. Our Damian has grown up a lot. “I am very proud.”
“…Are you kidding me?”
“no. “Is it true?”
“….”
“The reasoning ability of a guy who only wielded a sword in a gladiatorial arena improved by one day. But what about me? Wouldn’t you be proud? huh?”
“Not really…”
“Should I report to academia that a person who spends his bloody days behind bars in the dark underground world without even having access to human civilization can change like this?”
“….”
“sorry.”
“no. it’s okay.”
“Then what else? “Is that okay too?”
“Are you talking about blood sugar?”
“uh.”
“it’s okay.”
It was true. Although it was a bit dangerous earlier as it mobilized blood sugar and spewed out mana continuously.
“Your Majesty’s first aid was appropriate. Our Highness has grown a lot. “I am very proud.”
“…what?”
“It’s real.”
“….”
“The skill of the person who was under my protection and was stabbing patients in the villa has improved greatly. But I did. Would you be proud or not? yes?”
“hey.”
“Can I report to academia that a person who used to just lick honey from the imperial spoon in a warm villa could have improved his on-site response skills so much?”
“….”
“sorry.”
“huh. “You will be sentenced to death.”
“Thank you, though.”
“Thank you for killing me? “Are you a pervert?”
“That’s not it…”
“Then what is it?”
“I think what you said was right.”
Damian suddenly stopped walking. Then he touched his chest with his right hand and said.
“Multi Manahat. Finally made it. Thanks to this, I was able to increase the number of times I could endure by converting blood sugar into mana.”
“Oh really.”
“yes. It was exactly as His Majesty said at the villa. What I am saying is that the number of times blood sugar can be converted to mana will increase as the number of mana hearts increases.”
“So now twice?”
“yes. Manahat was divided in two.”
“Write it. “It’s not enough.”
“….”
“Oh, shouldn’t there be at least 100?”
“….”
“Ugh. “What are two rattles? Two rattles.”
“….”
“Let’s work hard, okay?”
“…yes.”
Just like that, there is a fierce battle of criticism and diss towards each other! At the end, Rachiel and Damian arrived at their destination.
“Are you here?”
“Hmm. “What if it’s as the mayor’s administrator told me?”
Rakiel looked up at the building in front of him. I saw large letters saying ‘Prayer’.
“I heard that here in Harmion, the prayer center serves as a hospital.”
“I’ve heard that too.”
“okay?”
“Yes, Your Highness. They said there were no doctors in Harmion. Instead, it was said that priests would take on that role.”
“what. It is a country of theocratic unity where the chief minister is the king. “Let’s go in.”
“yes.”
The inside of the prayer center building was moderately dark. Perhaps because of the windows that were kept to a minimum size and the curtains that were appropriately drawn, the candles that were lit sparsely seemed to stand out.
That dark and vast space.
I saw beds lined up along the wall. About 30 patients were also seen. Everyone has a solid and sturdy physique. These were the cavalrymen of this city.
‘They are the ones who didn’t fall off their horses during the assault earlier.’
The image of the mayor and the cavalry charging suddenly came to mind. At that time, the battle horses were frightened by the heat radiating from the radioactive bone dragon and ran wild in fear. Thanks to this, most of the cavalrymen, including the mayor, fell from their horses.
Of course, it wasn’t everything.
Some cavalrymen were lucky not to fall from their horses. He charged straight ahead. In other words, they got closer to the radioactive dragon and stayed longer. luckly. no. Should I say I was lucky?
‘I guess it’s the opposite.’
As a result, the ‘lucky’ cavalry troopers who did not fall from their horses suffered more radiation exposure. And then I ended up lying down in the prayer room. Unlike the mayor and his colleagues who ‘unluckily’ fell from horseback riding, they suffered only mild radiation exposure and suffered no significant aftereffects.
“Let’s start with the pulse first.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
Damian noticed and moved quickly. He went between beds, corrected the cavalrymen’s lying posture, and rolled up their wrist sleeves in advance. It was to ease the situation on this side.
Rachiel approached the nearest bed.
‘Jinmaek.’
He grabbed the cavalryman’s wrist.
The response came immediately.
Ding dong.
[Begin taking the pulse.]
[Scanning.]
[3… 2… 1…]
[The results of the pulse are out.]
[Please check the
below.]
How much radiation exposure was there?
I lowered my gaze, feeling a little anxious.
[Comprehensive medical checkup]
[Target of examination: Skov Nordgreen]
[Race: Human]
[Gender: Male]
[Age: 27 years old]
[Height: 184.2cm]
[Weight: 81.1kg]
[Blood type: Rh+ B]
[Comprehensive findings: A body trained to a very high standard. However, I was recently exposed to about 1.7 Sv (Sievert) of radiation in a short period of time. Symptoms such as headaches, nausea, digestive dysfunction, dizziness, sudden fatigue, male infertility, decreased vision and hearing, and overall senses, and decreased white blood cell and platelet levels are being detected. Currently, the mortality rate within 1 month is 5%. If left untreated without proper treatment and rest in the future, the fatality rate may rise dramatically.]
‘It’s a mess.’
The moment Rachiel looked at the comprehensive medical checkup sheet, she bit her molars hard. The condition was worse than expected. A whopping 1.7 sieverts. Even among the Margrave’s soldiers who had tracked the traces of the radioactive Bone Dragon for a long time in the past, none showed radiation exposure greater than 1 sievert.
‘This probably means that the radiation level of that Bone Dragon is enormous.’
These are cavalrymen who only stayed nearby for a short time. However, this level of radiation exposure means that even if you stay nearby for a few minutes without proper shielding equipment, you will die on the spot. I once again understood how the villages and small fortresses in the border area were massacred.
It was then.
“Are you… a priest?”
I was waiting for the results of the five organs and six parts consultation. The cavalryman who was taking the pulse opened his eyes and asked a question. Does it hurt a lot? My complexion wasn’t that good.
Rachiel smiled softly to reassure him.
“no. “I’m not a priest.”
“Then…”
“Doctor. Oriental medicine doctor.”
“An Oriental medicine doctor… this is my first time hearing about it.”
“yes? “I’ve heard that a lot too.”
“Then…”
“First, let’s start with treatment. “Relax and relax.”
What should I do for this person? I felt a little at a loss as the radiation exposure situation was more serious than I expected. Even if you are an Oriental medicine doctor, do you have an answer when faced with radiation exposure? Were there any measures against radiation exposure in the oriental medicine knowledge I learned?
no.
There was none.
But you have to do it.
By any means possible.
‘If you think about it, it’s not complicated. Due to radiation particles, the structure of cells is destroyed and their self-healing ability is extremely reduced. Then it might be worth a try. Increasing self-healing power is originally a specialty of Oriental medicine.’
Improving constitution.
Rejuvenation.
Nutritional tonic.
Increased vitality.
Prevent illness in advance through such a series of health practices. Maintaining a healthy body. Isn’t that the core of Oriental medicine?
‘It boosts diuretic action to help eliminate toxins from the body and provides sufficient nutrition and rest. ‘You can combine it with herbs that help with cell regeneration and liver detoxification.’
In fact, even in modern medicine, there is no clear treatment for radiation exposure symptoms. Symptomatic treatment is all that relieves pain and postpones death.
‘So let’s not be scared. you can do it.’
Rakiel shook off the helpless feeling that had been felt for a while and gathered her resolve.
But that was then.
“there. “Who is this who has come near our good believer?”
Sweet.
With a dry question, the door leading to the corridor inside the prayer center opened. It was a small man wearing a hood with a deep hood.
A man walked this way, gliding sloppily. When I looked closer, it was smaller. Maybe he’s only about 160 centimeters tall. However, the voice coming from under the hood was heavy and even intimidating, contrary to his body size.
“I ask you again. Who is it that disturbs the prayers of our good believers?”
“Oh, I am….”
“I am a non-believer. Is that correct?”
“yes?”
“It’s a face I’ve never seen before. These are eyes that do not feel the teachings of the great God. But did you come here with that blasphemous face and eyes and disturb the believers’ prayers and healing?”
“no.”
Rakiel immediately shook his head.
“I was just taking a pulse for treatment.”
“Jinmaek? Are you sure you want a medical examination?”
“yes.”
“dare!”
The man in the hood scolded.
“To the filthy unbeliever! “Aren’t you afraid of God’s wrath for not only trespassing in a sacred place but also openly groping and probing the body of a believer and impure it?”
“….”
“Get down on your knees and step away right now! Apologize for your unclean touch and repent! If you don’t, this priest, Shumeike, will personally whip tears of blood from the corners of your eyes with the whip of purification and force you to beg for a prayer of repentance!”
“….”
The new director let out a nervous yell.
Rakiel stared at him with astonished eyes. And I thought.
What the fuck is this?
You’re crossing the line.
