Yeah, it couldn’t not have worked.
Scurvy.
Vitamin C deficiency to be precise.
Because that was the identity of the great seafarer’s disease.
***
Surprisingly, it worked right away!
The sailors, who had been complaining of helplessness, immediately recovered.
[Achievement, you came up with a method to exterminate the great seafarer’s disease!]
[A special bonus will be given to your huge achievement!][You’ll get 300 additional skill points!]
[The sailors of the sea will praise your achievements for a long time!]
‘I got a whopping 300 skill points!’
Because treating scurvy was simple but revolutionary.
“What’s going on here?”
Prince Rashid stuttered in astonishment.
“Big Seafarers’ Disease is a disease caused by a lack of necessary elements in the body while not being able to eat properly for a long time. So, you can solve it by filling in the deficient elements.”
“Then, why did only ordinary sailors catch it?”
”It is because the superiors have access to the fresh food supply on land. That’s why they didn’t get sick.”
The scurvy begins to develop when vitamin C is not consumed for more than three months.
Even though they received supplies on land, all fresh food was up to the superiors. Ordinary soldiers fell ill because they had only to eat dried food.
At the time, Double-A class healer asked in disbelief.
“How did you do that?”
Raymond and Rashid have hidden for the time being that the treatment for scurvy is fruit to maintain confidentiality.
Raymond smirked and said in an unlucky voice.
“This is the power of medicine that you have ignored. You can come to learn if you want. I’ll take in.”
“Oh..…!”
“Of course, before that, pay 100,000 pena first. If you don’t have any money now, you can deposit it through an international bank. The same goes for others.”
Raymond said with a smile.
I couldn’t be this good. I never thought I could make 500,000 pena in just one sitting!
The pleasure of admiring the cheeky peoples’ faces loose their souls as they pay up like corpses was just a bonus.
***
As the soldiers regained their energy, the fleet immediately began to move since it was an urgent situation.
Most ships carried refugees from the Kingdom of Houston and Droughton and moved backward, with one heading south.
It was a speedboat that would transport Raymond and his party near the Winter Palace.
However, a completely unexpected person joined the speedboat.
It was Prince Rashid!
“Your Highness, why are you with us?”
Raymond asked in a puzzled voice.
Prince Rashid looked at Raymond with significant eyes.
“It is because of you, Baron Penin; I want to be with you a little longer.”
“What?”
“I see that your reputation of being the light of the Kingdom of Houston Army is not too much at all. I’d like to spend a little more time together and eventually be friends.”
Raymond scratched his head.
The Light of the Kingdom of Houston Army.
Who made that nickname, man…….
“It is such a…… It’s a wonderful and great nickname.’
Raymond smiled inwardly.
It was a nickname that he really liked.
For your information, Raymond didn’t hate the unfamiliar nickname. He was rather fond of it.
Because he values image making!
The more cool nicknames he has, the better his image will be.
With that in mind, something was wrong with Prince Rashid.
He just stared at Raymond without saying a word.
His emerald eyes, to be precise.
“What’s wrong with you?”
“…It really looks alike.”
“What?”
“Your eyes. It really looks like the curse of our royal family.”
Prince Rashid looked deep into Raymond’s eyes for a long time persistently.
Raymond said nothing of it.
“Yes, it’s amazing that they really look similar.”
“Is your real mother?”
“A figure who had nothing to do with the House of Lystein at all. She was a commoner in the slums. And most of all, she does not have an emerald eye.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes.”
Disappointment passed through Prince Rashid’s eyes at first glance.
‘Our cursed eyes are a symbol of the Lystein clan, so it’s impossible to artificially hide it with any magic. However, I felt sorry to see your outstanding ability. I wish such an outstanding person could be on the same side as him.’
Rashid shook his head in regret.
‘Even if it’s a separate character from the House of Lystein, it is better to have a connection with such an outstanding person.’
Prince Rashid reached out to Raymond.
“That’s too bad. It would be great if I had a person like you who is my own blood. Let’s be close together from now on.”
Raymond thought this prince was good at joking too.
“Thank you for saying that. I am truly honored.”
Both of their hands met.
At that moment.
Prince Rashid’s eyes hardened.
“Your Highness?”
“Oh…… No, don’t worry about it.”
Prince Rashid somehow shook his head in a hurry. Then he smiled.
“We are arriving at the Winter Palace soon. I wish you good luck.”
***
Prince Rashid dropped off Raymond’s party near the Winter Palace, and turned the boat around.
“What are you thinking, Your Highness?”
“I was thinking about Baron Penin.”
“By any chance? Did you feel the ‘sense of homogeneity?”
The deputy opened his eyes wide.
The Peninsula royalty could feel if the other person was their own blood relatives by physical contact.
Thanks to their special ability that flows through their veins.
But Prince Rashid shook his head.
“Not at all. He’s not a Peninsula royal. That’s for sure.”
“But why?”
Rashid shut up and recalled how he felt when he shook Raymond’s hand.
‘At that time…….’
Obviously, it wasn’t a ‘sense of homogeneity’.
However, he felt an unknown sense of heterogeneity. It was a sensation that he had never felt in physical contact with any blood relatives.
‘I’m sure he’s not a member of the Peninsula Royal Family. But what was that feeling?’
He thought for a long time, but he couldn’t tell.
‘Is that an illusion?’
It was most likely, but something in him was reluctant to let it go.
The senses he felt when attempting “contact” were “insensitive” for others and “isomorphic” for blood relatives.
But what do you mean “heterogeneity”? He had never heard of feeling this way before.
Eventually, Rashid thought.
‘When I return to the palace after the war, I’ll go to the Lystein Library and investigate immediately. There might be a case when someone felt a similar sensation to what I did during the ‘contact’.’
the Lystein Library.
It was a library for the Peninsula royalty that contained books about the history and history of their blood relatives.
‘Maybe I can find a clue about a case similar to this one here.’
***
“Is this the Winter Palace?”
It was a secluded mansion located in a desert adjacent to the sea.
The atmosphere was so bleak that it matched the lonely word “winter.”
‘It’s located in a desert, so it’s a perfect place to use as an abandoned place. Anyway, we need to start treatment quickly.’
Time has been delayed too much due to various circumstances.
‘I am worried how the young king’s body would be holding up.’
‘He is not yet dead, is he?’
If the disease he speculated was correct, there was a possibility that he had died without enduring until now.
‘I brought a cure, but it also works only when the patient is alive.’
Fortunately, Raymond brought medicine to cure the young king.
The variable was the state of the young king.
“Let’s hurry up!”
But there were difficulties.
It was Berard’s soldiers guarding the Winter Palace!
“……The number of soldiers watching has increased. Perhaps the king’s condition has deteriorated, so he has sent additional troops to prevent an unexpected disturbance.”
It was roughly three knights, two wizards, and fifty soldiers.
The complexion of the group looked heavy.
It was not a small force.
“I’ll step up and figure it out.”
“I’ll step up too.”
“I’ll come out too.”
Elmud, Lao, and Christine took the lead at the same time.
Some of the knights who followed Sir Ingel also pulled out their swords.
Then they looked at Raymond.
“That’s right, Master. If you tell me you’re going to be in front again today, I’ll be mad. Master, save yourself.”
“That’s right, brother.”
Everyone seemed to be mistaken that Raymond would take the lead for others again.
‘……I’m not going to step forward. I’m scared of fighting.’
Raymond crossed his arms after being puzzled.
‘I think we’d better avoid the fight anyway.’
‘I’m not planning on losing.’
The number of people in the group now is about 10.
Except for healers Raymond, Hanson, and Lindon, they were all elite knights. They came together in case of a fight.
If you fight, you’ll have to win. However, the problem was elsewhere.
“Please wait a moment. I think we’d better avoid collisions for now.”
“Why is that?”
“If we fight them, there will definitely be news for Berard regarding the situation here. Then the back-up troops will come and the plan to treat the young king of Droughton will be a failure.”
Everyone was in a panic.
That’s right.
It wasn’t about overpowering them.
As soon as the collision occurred, an emergency call would be made to the crystal ball, and then it was over.
“But there is no other way than to physically subdue them, is there?” asked Lord Ingel, who came with him.
Raymond was troubled.
Raymond shook his head.
It was impossible.
Unless the soldiers fall into a sleeping sickness as a group.
Raymond, who thought so much, was startled at the moment.
‘Wait? Sleep?’
One way came to mind!
‘I’m putting them all to sleep with sleeping pills!’
‘I’ve brought a bunch of strong sleep-inducing drugs, so it’s possible! The problem is how to spread it.’
Raymond asked the wizard, who had followed him in a hurry.
“Can you use wind magic?”
“It’s possible, it’s possible.”
“Can you blow the wind all over this mansion?”
The wizard shook his head.
“That’s impossible. I’m a wizard whose main specialty is the flame gauge. If you want to blow that kind of wind, you have to be a wizard who specializes in wind magic.”
Wizards.
As a senior wizard, he was a powerful man comparable to a Sword expert in terms of knights.
However, in the case of wizards, each field of organization was different.
The accompanying wizard was a flame-based specialist with a strong attack magic.
‘What should I do? If I manage to blow the sleep inducer powder with wind magic, I can suppress them at once. Is there any way?’
Raymond was thinking about it.
Fortunately, a solution came into his mind.
‘Magic. I can use it! I just have to look at the market!’
A list of skills came to his mind next.
