The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 131
Episode 131 Weaknesses of the Name of Habit (1)
There are things in the world that should not happen. Sometimes not all growth is just beneficial.
The same goes for destruction for the sake of creation and extinction for the sake of birth. It is often said that it is an inevitable sacrifice.
It is also said to be a valuable foundation for future creation and birth. But will the parties who will be destroyed and destroyed actually think that way?
‘no.’
Rakiel shook his head inwardly. And I remembered the story in the novel Demon Sword Emperor.
It was a story about destruction and creation. It was an epic poem that sang about the extinction and birth of the world.
Damian was at the center of it all.
The empire collapses.
All order is destroyed.
He grew up in the ruins of ashes. As he grew, he once again destroyed the world. It led to the rebirth of everything.
That was his destiny from the moment he was born, and he followed it. And only in the end did he reject that path and overcome it after numerous hardships.
So it was.
‘Damian. If I abandon you here, and you end up in a crisis that you can’t escape…’
In that crisis, you will eventually realize your true nature. At least you will have taken the first step on that path. If something like that really happens, in this world…
“Everyone will be in danger? “What does that mean?”
Princess Adeline’s voice came through the cracks in my thoughts. Rakiel suddenly came to his senses.
Adeline was in front of me. Behind her, numerous warhorses were galloping fiercely.
It was the royal guard of the royal army.
It was the rebel’s SS unit.
The two most elite cavalry units on both sides rushed to crush each other. crashed. entangled Dizzy. Violently. Spears crossed and shields split. Fresh blood splattered and someone’s energy and screams mingled.
“Let’s get on!”
Adeline’s hand reached out. I got on the horse as if I was being led by her rough grasp. She shouted, sitting on the front of the saddle.
“Because my arm is not strong! Take care of yourself! Hey! under!”
The warhorse gave a loud taunt at the sound of her voice. Could it be that Adeline is trying to leave the battlefield with me like this?
It seemed like that.
I came to my senses.
“for a moment!”
I grabbed her shoulders.
“It cannot continue like this. Really. “If we leave Damian here… it will all be over.”
“What on earth are you talking about earlier?”
Adeline looked back. It was a look in his eyes that said he couldn’t understand at all. know. I understand. You can’t even guess what I’m talking about.
But I can’t explain it. Because it can’t be like that. Just saying the truth out loud is a revelation. If we don’t do that, a situation will arise where the ‘being’ who left Damian in this world moves directly.
‘So… I brought him from the underground gladiatorial arena using all kinds of strange excuses and kept him by my side.’
I couldn’t tell anyone.
It was the same for Damien.
So I just kept it by my side.
To prevent hardships and adversities like those in the novel The Demon Sword Emperor that will befall Damian. To prevent him from going through difficult times. I just wanted to let them enjoy a normal, peaceful life.
I thought that would be enough.
Because without a crisis, there is no overcoming it. If there is nothing to overcome, there will be no growth. I intentionally set his time to a peaceful routine. fixed. Locked up.
Like flowers in a greenhouse.
Like a bird in a cage.
I thought it would be possible in a peaceful imperial palace by the crown prince’s side.
Although you may experience strange events from time to time, I thought that if you were by my side, you would not experience the same hopeless pain and adversity as in the original novel.
I wanted to help them live such a peaceful and stable life. I wanted to stop it from growing.
I wanted to let everyone in the world just flow along in peace, without destruction for the sake of creation or extinction for the sake of birth.
That’s how I live too.
Because my life will be stable too.
‘So… the guy who saved me in Cremo ended up being in danger when he was alone with Urus, so he went back and saved him, ignoring the advice of those around him.’
But I had no idea that he would face such a crisis today.
I had no idea that I would be faced with a one-on-one confrontation with a strong person that I could not handle.
Crash!
Rachiel gritted his teeth.
I was determined. I think I’ll have to do something crazy again like I did back then in Cremo. Of course I’m afraid. scary.
However, compared to what will happen if Damien realizes his true nature, I think it would be better to hold back his fear for a moment and do something crazy.
“Princess, listen to me clearly from now on.”
A fierce battle between the Royal Guard and the Imperial Guard unfolds around you. In the midst of all that evil, I looked straight into Adeline’s eyes. He spoke each word with force.
“You are important to save everyone here. “Everyone can survive only if you do what I ask.”
“What…”
“Can you do it for me?”
“….”
Rachiel’s eyes are burning. Adeline stopped breathing without realizing it. It was my first time seeing those eyes from him. Maybe that was why.
She nodded slightly unconsciously. It was only after that that he realized what he had done.
‘Am I crazy?’
All you have to do is take the crown prince and leave the battlefield like this. Now that everyone is caught up in the battle, this would be the best opportunity to do so.
But why am I following the crown prince’s ridiculous and bizarre opinions?
I couldn’t understand myself. I wanted to change my decision even now. But the crown prince did not give him a chance to do so.
“good. thank you. Then listen carefully. “What you have to do from now on is…”
Rachiel explained quickly.
Listening to the explanation. Grabbing the reins. Belatedly understanding the crown prince’s intentions. Adeline was slowly but surely startled.
?
It’s shocking. It’s also amazing.
Wedge-!
The blade flashed. The sword body glided like a poisonous snake.
It split the space with a sharp and cool force. It was an extremely persistent sword attack that targeted weak points.
Squeak!
Another blade moved. The sword body reacted explosively like a wild beast.
They occupied the space with ferocious and fierce force. It was a sword strike that blatantly ignored the law and tore everything apart.
Tukkeong-!
The two forces collided.
A venomous snake-like sword strike pushed back the beast’s sword. Biting at weak points and digging at wounds.
At that moment, a serpent-like smile appeared on Javilon’s lips. he thought. It’s shocking and also amazing.
‘I never thought there would be someone like this.’
His eyes looked at the other person with interest. Damian was there.
He was wielding a sword like a wild beast with a distorted face. I was holding on, on the verge of collapsing due to the force of this side.
That sight was so exciting.
‘In terms of level, it appears to be only intermediate Sword Expert.’
It was true.
The black long-haired man in front of me was strange. It just seemed like he had a lot of small practical experience, but even if he played well, it wasn’t a skill that was considered advanced.
The same was true when looking at his movements, his sword handling skills, and his ability to use mana.
When he first blocked his sword, he thought it was a coincidence.
Because it was just a sword that was swung to slightly cut off the leg of a saintly military doctor. Because it didn’t take much force.
I thought it was thanks to this that he was able to block his sword with difficulty.
That alone was already close to a miracle, but miracles can happen at any time. I just thought of it that way.
But when I kept mixing the swords, it wasn’t the case.
…spit!
Javilon’s sword extended like a flash. Five afterimages were mixed together. It flashed, targeting Damian’s forehead, neck, shoulders, and lower abdomen at the same time.
It was an attack that an average sword expert or intermediate level skill could never avoid or block.
Because the levels are different in the first place. Because there is as much difference between a tiger and a child.
But the result was unexpected again.
Taaat!
Damian neither blocked nor dodged the sword. Instead, he jumped forward. I hit all the afterimages with my body.
It was as if I was seeing the afterimage from the beginning. He even let the real sword strike mixed in with the afterimage through his shoulder.
“…Kkeuch!”
A shoulder grazed by a sword strike. Drops of blood splattered. But Damian didn’t stop.
Instead, I gritted my teeth and moved forward. Both eyes flashed. I swept my sword towards Javilon’s waist.
Shikaaak-!
“under!”
A cheering smile appeared on Javilon’s lips. I never thought they would show such a response. I didn’t know. It was unexpected. I became even more interested.
‘It looks like you’re about to get hit, but every time, you manage to get away with my attacks by just a narrow margin? Is this possible?’
I didn’t understand.
I felt like my common sense was collapsing.
This situation, where a bumbling sword expert repeatedly blocked the attacks of the sword master himself and eventually counterattacked, felt like a joke.
So it was even more stimulating.
‘He has an extraordinary innate ability to respond to crises.’
Very occasionally there was a guy like this. Literally a born genius. I’m a bastard. A cotyledon ripe for the taking. And if you leave them alone… they will grow endlessly.
‘If you do it, you’ll have to step on it.’
Interesting buds are dangerous. If left to grow, it becomes a threat. We must trample on them while they are still young and have the opportunity.
Javilon’s eyes showed a destructive desire as much as interest. Anyway, today’s target is the military doctor Saint.
You must capture the man who dared to deceive you and even ran away. You have to keep it with you for life.
‘So you just die here.’
This is where the interesting things to play with end.
Nod!
Javilon’s eyes turned cold.
His grip on the sword tightened.
That moment.
…Tsuzuzu!
His sword had an eerie, brilliant light.
The exclusive property of the Sword Master. The ultimate destructive art that can only be performed by those who have achieved infinite circulation of mana. The final flash.
It was an auror.
Spook.
There was no sign of anything.
There wasn’t even a preliminary action.
Javilon’s sword only shook slightly. At the same time, the brilliance of the auror drew a destructive melody in front of him. It split space and cut matter.
It included Damian’s extended sword.
“…!”
The moment the sword was completely cut off, Damian’s eyes widened in shock. A danger signal pounded in my heart. At the same time, he leaned to the side.
Snap-!
The tip of the auror grazed my right cheek and shoulder. Five strands of cut hair fluttered in the air.
I got goosebumps. But the real crisis came next.
“I’m done playing with you now.”
“…!”
An emotionless voice rang right in front of me. For a moment Damian saw.
The appearance of Javilon raising a sword encrusted with Aura. The tip of his sword is aimed at his own chest.
On the other hand, what about yourself?
I haven’t even regained my balance yet. There was no way to avoid it or stop it. A distant despair took over my mind.
Is this the end? Is it really like that? The rising darkness made time slow down. No, it gave me that illusion.
‘I never thought I’d end up in a place like this.’
A bitter laugh came out.
I didn’t know it would be like this.
I just thought my life would have more meaning. There are many things I want to do in the future. The thought of dying in a place like this was just empty.
Wedge-!
The sword pierced in. In just a moment, my heart will be pierced. It was the moment when that thought came to mind.
…Exciting!
As if rebelling.
As if resisting.
My heart was beating loudly.
Was he running as if he was struggling for the last time before his inevitable death?
I thought that was the case, but I had a feeling it wasn’t. No, it wasn’t a simple feeling. In other words, it was close to a strong conviction.
‘…what.’
The passage of time is perceived slowly, like the lantern of life. In the meantime, Damian tilted his head. It was truly strange.
A sword strike that cannot be avoided right now is aimed at the heart. The remaining distance is only a short distance away. There wouldn’t even be time left to take a single breath.
But I wasn’t afraid. I wasn’t anxious either. I didn’t think I was going to die. My heart suddenly started beating loudly.
I felt like something unknown was awakening in my heart. mistaken? It wasn’t.
Boom! Coo!
My heart beat even louder. An unprecedented ego that was lurking around stirred. I laughed. towards yourself. To everyone in the world. Toward the extending sword. As if it were ridiculous.
‘I…’
Damian unconsciously opened his eyes. Suddenly, the whites of both eyes had turned black.
Conversely, the pupils of the eyes were bleached white. An unintentional awareness eroded his will. No, it was trying to encroach.
If an unexpected shout had not come at that moment, and if a large shadow had not attacked Javilon out of nowhere, he would have had to surrender all his will to an unprecedented being who had just opened his eyes.
“Javiloon-!”
“…!”
A shout that pierced my eardrums.
Damian startled at that sound. His pupils returned to normal. At the same time, Javilon also flinched. I raised my side of the eye and glanced upwards, where I heard the shout.
Soon Javilon was found.
‘uh?’
A dead warhorse was flying.
No, your legs were floundering and you were flying.
It was flying as if it were going to crush us, like a rock thrown by someone with great strength, or like a cannonball fired from a catapult.
‘What is this again?’
Javilon was dumbfounded. It was annoying. Should I just ignore it? I was worried for a moment. The conclusion came quickly.
‘I don’t want to get run over by something like that.’
Even if you get run over by a flying horse, you won’t be seriously hurt. Because I am a sword master. But you will have to be shocked in the process.
Then, the headache that was always throbbing will get worse for a little while. I don’t like that.
‘This guy immediately after processing that comment.’
Pop!
Javilon stopped stabbing Damian with his sword. reaped I swung upwards with the same momentum.
A flash of aura-laden light swept across the waist of the horse that was flying.
Sigh-!
The waist of the flying warhorse corpse was cut off in one fell swoop and split into two. But Javilon didn’t care at all.
He changed the direction of his sword, scattering the blood flying with the sword wind. It was lowered straight down. It was towards Damian.
But it was that moment.
Javilon’s attention was disturbed for just a moment. Someone unexpected appeared from behind the horse’s large torn body.
“…Whoop!”
It was Rakiel, a man who did crazy things just for this moment.
He attacked Javilon with the same momentum he had with his horse.
I stretched out my hand. With all my might. With full power. Toward the back of Javilon’s head, where there was a split-second gap. Fiercely.
I swung.
slap!
Rachiel’s bread-like palm slapped Javilon on the back of the head. Javilon flinched. Rachiel shouted.
“My hand! Weak hands! Hehey?!”
That moment.
Ding dong!
[?My hand is weak (Lv.3)? skill is activated.]
[Patient: Javilon’s headache is subsiding.]
A refreshing message appeared before my eyes. At the same time, Javilon’s expression changed.
“Huh?”
A gap left unexpectedly. A surprise attack that went undetected because it was a trivial attempt without even the slightest chance of survival. The back of the head got hit like that.
But it didn’t hurt. No, rather, the headache that always seemed to be bothering me went away.
It was cool. It was refreshing. I felt relieved. A longed-for feeling. It was the touch of a saintly military doctor.
…Yes, it tastes like this.
The moment when Javilon smiles unconsciously.
Huh…?
Suddenly, the aura was removed from his sword and disappeared.
