The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 255

Episode 255 Vampire Metamorphosis (3)

“Hmm? what? “What’s wrong with lunch today?”

“Is there some… problem, Your Majesty?”

The mayor, who was standing next to him, asked in surprise. Rachiel looked back at him. And he said it as if he was a little disappointed.

“This soup. “I think there was a little less garlic in it?”

“Is that so?”

“uh.”

I’m serious.

“I feel a bit dull today. Why is it like this? “That’s strange.”

Rakiel tilted his head. Although he has adapted well to this world so far, there was one area in which he was particularly slow to adapt. It was food.

‘Anyway, all the food in this town is bland. ‘Won Cham.’

Kimchi stew, soybean paste, sundae soup, hot chicken maeuntang, and red-hot beef stew. He had typical Korean tastes. Thanks to this, I still occasionally dream of taking a shot of spicy and spicy stew.

Of course, you could get peppers here too. But the peppers here were somehow different from those in Korea. I couldn’t even hope for red pepper paste. chili powder? It was there, but there was something very different and quiet about it.

That’s why garlic was precious.

At least the taste was similar to what I had in Korea. No matter what the dish, if you hit the garlic recklessly, you can barely tolerate it and eat it. So it was. He would always place special orders from the villa’s chef. Plenty of garlic!

“Well, I guess the chef briefly forgot the order today.”

Probably something like that.

That can happen if you’re busy.

Rakiel smiled indifferently and picked up the spoon. However, the reaction of the Chamberlain upon hearing this…

“That can’t be possible… Please wait a moment, Your Highness. “I will check.”

“uh?”

what?

I raised my head in surprise.

But the Chamberlain was already running down the hallway without any time to catch him.

“….”

Oh no.

I made a mistake.

Indeed, the consequences of that mistake were soon revealed.

“majesty! Please kill me!”

“….”

The villa chef, who had been summoned by the chamberlain, came in crying. The moment Rakiel saw that, he felt like he missed it. Of course, I felt extremely embarrassed and sorry.

‘Whoa. This is true. I just said that I thought there was a little less garlic today…’

I never thought the chef would come running to me like this and even start crying.

Suddenly, I thought of a frog being killed by a stone thrown without thinking. It was just like that now. In the military, it was said that if the division commander sneezed, the entire division would catch a cold. Or did they say that when the CEO of a company comes down, the ones who die the most are the lowest-ranking employees?

But now I have done it. Although it is said to have been done unconsciously, there is still no room for excuses. So let’s admit it clearly. Let’s apologize and make things right.

Rakiel spoke honestly.

“Sorry. I didn’t mean it that way. “I’m grateful that you always work hard and take care of me.”

“No, Your Highness. It’s because I didn’t live up to your expectations. “On days like today, I should have doubled the amount of garlic I used, considering Your Majesty’s mood and tastes in advance, but it was my fault for not doing so, Your Majesty.”

“Hmm?”

Rakiel paused.

What does that mean?

“Is it my fault that I didn’t double the amount of garlic I used?”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

“So, does that mean you added the same amount of garlic to today’s lunch dish as usual?”

“I truly apologize for doing so, Your Highness.”

“….”

The chef cried even more and lowered his head. Looking at his face, it seemed like he was definitely not lying. Same amount of garlic as usual. But I felt it vaguely.

Then there is only one conclusion.

Because I was tired, I became insensitive to taste.

“…Huh.”

I feel more sorry than before. On the other hand, I also thought that from next time, I should never show it even if I don’t like the cooking.

Rachiel put down her spoon and stood up. I walked up to the chef, who was almost kneeling on the floor, and gently patted his shoulder.

“Chef? After hearing what you said, it seems that what happened today was a mistake on my part. There is nothing wrong with you. Rather, I feel sorry. I’m truly sorry. “I didn’t have any intention of hurting you.”

“My highness?”

“So take pride in your work. “The fact that I am healthier today than before is also due to the chef’s hidden dedication and efforts.”

“Your Highness…”

“I am always grateful. So just leave now. And this time, I will award you as a special reflection and atonement for my mistake in misunderstanding you. Chef? “Your only son has always wanted to see the Minotaur, right?”

“ah? Yes yes! “Yes, Your Highness.”

“also. What I heard from the attendants is correct. Then, bring your son to the villa tomorrow. So that the child can have a fun day with the Minotaur.”

“Is that… true, Your Majesty?”

“of course. Then should I lie? “I’ll tell Urus separately.”

“Seo Seong-eun is devastated, Your Majesty!”

The chef’s tearful face softened somewhat. When I saw that, I somehow felt relieved. thank god. Somehow I succeeded in getting it resolved.

“Whoa.”

Only after the chef stepped down did the commotion(?) subside. And on the other hand, I had to realize it. Thanks to a brief commotion, half of my precious lunch time was lost.

“….”

Life is real.

It was from then on. Rakiel ate his slightly cooled lunch in a combative manner.

There was no time to hesitate. There are a lot of patients waiting for afternoon treatment right now. Moreover, it seems that the Sindorim Station platform could now be filled with only patients who came to us with symptoms of unknown cause.

“….”

Anyway, what are the patients flocking to us now? How did everyone end up in such a dazed state? Nevertheless, why is there no disease name found in the Jinmaek skill?

‘If you actually do acupoint scanning, the Qi and blood flow is a mess. What on earth is this really?’

I didn’t understand. The more I thought about it, the more powerful the feeling became.

So it was.

Rachiel was even busier playing with the spoon and fork.

‘Oh, I’m busy, I’m busy.’

He barely finished eating and had to immediately put on a gown. Time was so tight that I forgot to brush my teeth.

“Please bring the next patient in.”

The long-awaited(?) first treatment of the afternoon. The patient whose name was called entered the treatment room without delay. A familiar person was Valentino, a doctor at the Oriental Medicine Clinic in the villa.

“what. “Are you still feeling bad?”

“Yeh…?”

“….”

Valentino looks at us with eyes that are more blurry than yesterday. Now it felt like my eyes couldn’t even focus at all.

Raquiel’s expression hardened when he saw that.

‘This guy was so smart that I actually got used to showing off. How on earth did it happen…’

It’s definitely not an ordinary disease.

Just body aches or anemia?

Absolutely not.

Almost certain, Rachiel placed her hand on Valentino’s wrist again and used the pulse skill. I focused and promised that I would make an accurate diagnosis. I closed my eyes.

Meanwhile, Valentino’s eyes changed slightly.

“….”

My throat was dry. A thirst that becomes increasingly clear in my dazed and hazy consciousness. thirsty. I want to drink something. Cool water? no. Not like that. Something much richer and closer to life. For example…

‘Blood.’

Red, thick liquid.

Blood, the source of life.

I think I need to drink that to quench my current thirst. It’s true. It feels like my throat is on fire right now. It feels like my dry esophagus is cracking and my whole body is going to be crushed. So, I need to drink it right now.

Whoever it is.

In any way.

…Sigh.

Valentino tasted it without even realizing it. I slightly bent my upper body forward. The prey indicated by impulsive instinct. I fixed my gaze on the crown prince in front of me.

At that moment, the crown prince had his eyes closed as he was concentrating on his pulse. I can’t recognize this person’s appearance. It’s an opportunity. It’s just now.

Sigh.

I opened my mouth slightly. The crown prince’s defenseless nape. Pure white nape. You have to bite it. The blood gushing out. Without a single drop left behind. I’ll drink it up.

It was a moment when I thought…

Valentino opened his mouth and took a deep breath as his excitement grew. A sip of air rushed into my nose and mouth. At that moment, some of the prince’s exhaled breath came in as well. The smell of garlic-rich soup, which the crown prince was too busy to brush away while brushing his teeth, came into the air.

“…!”

The smell of destruction!

Kwadangtang!

Valentino instinctively got scared and took a step back. It fell over along with the chair. Thanks to this, Rakiel, who was concentrating on the pulse, was surprised.

“What is it? what’s the matter?”

“Hee hee hee!”

“Valentino?”

“Ugh! Ahhh! Do not come! “Don’t come!”

Valentino started to glow. He waved his hands in fear as if he had seen something he couldn’t see.

Rakiel’s expression hardened.

At the same time, a report from the five organs and six parts came to my ears.

Ding dong!

[Your lungs have detected an unusual reaction in Valentino’s body.]

[Lungs: His lungs just… I smelled garlic and I went crazy… I’ve never seen a guy like that before. Ha ha… haha]

“….”

It was a simple report. However, the significance conveyed by the content was by no means simple.

His usual smartness was completely absent and he was behaving in a dazed manner. Anemia symptoms. When I smelled garlic, I was overcome with fear and fell asleep. And now I can see it…

‘The scar on the nape of my neck.’

Raquiel stared at the back of Valentino’s neck. At that moment, Valentino’s clothes were greatly disturbed due to his struggle. Thanks to this, my shirt collar became tangled. The lower part of the nape, which had been hidden by the collar the entire time, was slightly revealed.

There was an unusual wound there. A wound that looked as if it had been stabbed side by side with two awls. But the spacing between the wounds is like…

‘Looks like the marks you see in classic horror movies, doesn’t it? Vampire fang marks.’

That was exactly it.

I felt it as soon as I saw it.

“anise?”

He jumped up from his seat. Head nurse Anis was called and ordered.

“Examine the napes of the patients with the same symptoms who are sitting in the waiting room right now.”

“The nape of your neck?”

“huh. entire. Every single person. Can you see Valentino’s neck here? “All you have to do is look to see if there is a wound identical to this one.”

“I understand, Your Majesty.”

Did he realize that something was out of the ordinary? Anis went straight out into the hallway. Her report, which came back a little later, was indeed as expected.

“majesty? “The wounds you mentioned are indeed there.”

“okay? “All the waiting patients?”

“yes. “All patients who show symptoms of daze.”

“….”

I finally understand.

I got a feeling.

‘That’s right. It’s a bite. To a vampire.’

So does this mean that Valentino and his patients are all becoming vampires? It seemed like that.

In that case….

“Listen carefully from now on, Anis. “As the crown prince and director of the annex oriental medicine clinic, I will issue an emergency decree.”

“yes? If it’s an emergency order….”

“Empty the two hospitalization wards. Patients with dazed symptoms are isolated in Ward 1, and their families are isolated in Ward 2. And we will unify the patient menu for wards 1 and 2.”

“What menu?”

“Raw garlic and mugwort.”

“…yes?”

Anise was shocked.

Rachiel commanded with confidence.

“I don’t know if our head nurse knows, but since ancient times, there has been no ingredient as effective as garlic and mugwort in turning non-human beings into humans.”

It is certainly.

Because it is a traditional(?) therapy proven by history and mythology.

In this way, the ‘Woongnyeo Therapy’ began to be implemented at the Byeongung Oriental Medical Clinic to treat vampirism.
