The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 311

Episode 311 I was hospitalized. (1)

The misunderstanding was easily resolved.

“So you’re saying it was a healing process?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“….”

The crown prince nodded as if it was obvious. Thanks to this, Edouard, the half-elf general of Amboise, was defenseless and almost agreed.

‘That was treatment? Where? how?’

A mysterious bouquet that blooms softly and naturally! The general recalled the scene he had witnessed earlier. No, it was a sight that would more appropriately be described as a tragedy rather than a sight.

A middle-aged man lying in bed. Countless thorns were stuck in the man’s upper body. It wasn’t anything small. To exaggerate a bit, it was a thorn that could have been a hand-span long. If that isn’t torture, what is?

But it is treatment.

So from now on….

“Am I receiving that too?”

“Well, why don’t you try the pulse first? “Please show me your wrist.”

“….”

Edouard obediently held out his hand. He then looked at the crown prince with a complex gaze as he closed his eyes while feeling the pulse on his wrist.

‘Indeed…’

Is it right for the crown prince to properly treat people? Rumors say that he is a man of great fortune. My niece Adeline also said that she was very satisfied after receiving treatment from this person. But still, I have doubts.

‘The crown prince? Why? why?’

Are they going through all this hardship to treat people regardless of whether they are nobles or commoners? What are the benefits to you? No, I don’t think there is anything in particular. Even if he didn’t have to do this, people would look up to him just because of his status as the crown prince. But why?

“….”

I didn’t understand. A crown prince who devotes himself to medical treatment all day for something that has no particular benefit. I couldn’t believe it even when I saw it with my own eyes. Rather, prejudices quickly emerged.

‘There’s probably a political reason. It could be that they are trying to appeal to the public with the image of a person who will become a successful person.’

It seemed like just that. What are the rumors about the crown prince? Of course it’s probably an exaggeration. Maybe the imperial family of the empire directly stepped in and inflated it.

When I thought about it that way, something felt right.

‘In other words, the crown prince is only pretending to be a doctor and showing off. Adeline must have been caught up in this atmosphere too.’

I came to my own conclusion.

On the other hand, I also sighed.

‘How did I end up having to match this condescension?’

I felt pitiful.

What if the person in front of you wasn’t the crown prince of the empire? Regardless of whether it was rude or not, I would have just left the place and left. But I couldn’t do that. If you do that, it will have a negative impact on the negotiations with the empire that your nephew is working hard on.

‘Tsk.’

If the treatment is just pretend, it would be better to finish it quickly. General Edouard waited, trying hard to keep his expression from frowning.

Meanwhile, Rakiel was carefully reviewing the results of the True Vein skill.

Ding dong!

[Comprehensive medical checkup]

[Test subject: Edouard Amboise]

[Race: Half-elf]

[Gender: Male]

[Age: 57 years old]

[Height: 184.6 Cm]

[Weight: 85.9 Kg]

[Blood type: Rh+ E]

[Comprehensive findings : In general, it has a very strong body. However, chronic gastritis ulcer was detected in the small area of the pyloric antrum of the stomach. The cause appears to be excessive gastric acid and weakened resistance of the mucous membrane, and the gastric wall cells in the ulcer area are lost, and only the secretory glands in the mucous membrane remain in the ‘severe’ stage. In this case, there are clear signs of tissue dysplasia followed by gastric cancer, so prompt treatment is recommended. Additionally, a large amount of Helicobacter pylori infection was confirmed between the gastric mucosa and mucus. We also recommend prompt action on this.]

…Hmm.

‘It’s a mess.’

Rachiel frowned.

From the beginning, I thought the general’s stomach ulcer was in bad condition. However, when I took each bite and checked the pulse, it wasn’t much better than I expected.

‘Is this serious?’

It is almost on the verge of progressing into stomach cancer. In addition, the Helicobacter pylori infection mentioned at the end of the comprehensive findings is added, making the situation even more daunting.

‘What are the results of the consultation you conducted in the Five Organs and Sixth Department?’

Rachiel asked.

Soon the answer from the five organs and six parts came back.

Ding dong!

[Your five organs and six organs are astonished at Edouard Amboise’s stomach ulcer condition.]

[Heart: Mr. Wow. What is that?]

[Lungs: Huh… Pahaaaaa…]

[Captain: One side of the stomach wall has completely melted.]

[Liver: How did you live like that? It must have been really painful???]

[Stomach: ….]

[Kidney: Stomach? Why are you silent?]

[Spleen: Looks like you have received culture haha]

[Office of the internal organs report: The condition of the stomach ulcer is serious. If you don’t get treatment right away, you will definitely be in trouble within 3 years. If you want to save him, get him hospitalized right away]

“….”

Okay, I understand.

Rakiel raised his head.

I saw General Edouard facing me expressionlessly. No, his face is expressionless, but his eyes are strangely harsh and full of dissatisfaction. The moment Rakiel saw that, he smiled bitterly. This was because it was a look I had become accustomed to.

‘This is the appearance of someone who sees me as a fashion doctor again.’

Because he is the crown prince.

So sometimes there were people who looked at this side with the colored glasses of prejudice. Princess Adeline was like that when we first met, and the Emperor was no different in the past.

The same was true for General Edouard in front of me now.

‘Yeah, it’s okay, I’m used to it.’

Actually, I thought that might be the case from the other person’s perspective. To others, it would appear that this person is just holding the patient’s wrist and staying still. Doubts will arise as to how a disease can be diagnosed with that.

But it doesn’t matter. No matter how much you doubt it now, your attitude will change once you experience the improvement through treatment.

‘Let’s not just go and hang on then.’

Rachiel smiled inwardly and opened her mouth.

“First of all, it’s a stomach ulcer. And the condition has progressed quite a bit.”

“What do you mean there has been a lot of progress?”

“The gastrointestinal mucosa was seriously damaged due to excessive attack by stomach acid and pepsin. The depth of the defect in the mucous membrane has progressed to the submucosal layer or below, and the possibility of gastric perforation occurring is extremely high. Perforation refers to a hole in the stomach, which may cause the contents of the stomach to leak into the peritoneum, causing acute localized peritonitis.”

“…yes?”

General Edouard was shocked. And I thought. The crown prince is clearly speaking human language, but why can’t his ears understand those words? I couldn’t figure it out. However, the crown prince’s tongue moved without any hesitation.

“Also, Helicobacter pylori was confirmed to have grown in large quantities inside the stomach. Helicobacter pylori, also known as gastric spiral bacteria, is a spiral-shaped gram-negative bacillus that lives between the gastric mucosa and mucus. “This guy is like a pervert who likes places with high acidity, and because of that characteristic, it grows in large quantities in the human stomach and even encourages the development of gastric ulcers.”

“What…”

“To put it simply, you can think of it as a very small parasite that needs to be killed right away. Tens of billions of those guys are now tap dancing in the general’s stomach.”

“…Does that make sense?”

“It’s possible. So, you need to be hospitalized right away.”

“yes?”

What does that mean?

General Edouard was shocked.

It was true that he had been suffering from stomach pain for a long time. I also had black stools from time to time. But I never thought that it would be a big hindrance to my life.

Because he is a general.

Because it is a huge responsibility.

I lived my life thinking that I couldn’t show my feelings or whine because of such a minor pain. I took it for granted.

‘How many battles have I fought while protecting the northern part of the kingdom? How many soldiers were lost in the meantime? How many times have you witnessed the horrors of your subordinates having their necks and limbs cut off and their torsos pierced by enemy attacks?’

But can I show it just because my stomach hurts a little? no. It shouldn’t be like that. Because he is the one leading the soldiers. Because he is responsible for the survival and safety of his subordinates. You should never appear weak.

So, he was a general who had endured the pain of stomach ulcers for a long time in silence. But being hospitalized? I can’t believe I have to show my weak side by lying calmly on a hospital bed. Coming to a country that is not even your homeland?

‘Nonsense!’

The general shook his head strongly.

“You mean being hospitalized? “I don’t think so, crown prince of the empire.”

“I am now the director.”

“Anyway, I can’t follow the instructions to be hospitalized.”

“Why?”

“I have a great responsibility.”

“aha. “It’s your responsibility to protect the princess of your country, right?”

“You know very well.”

“But what should I do? “The princess who the general is supposed to protect sent me a letter in advance with special instructions.”

“…yes?”

Correspondence?

Adeline?

While the general was looking at him in disbelief, Rachiel took out a letter from his desk drawer.

“This is it. “Read it yourself.”

“….”

The general checked the letter three times, feeling as if he was possessed. But it was right. It was written that they were asking for the best care of our party, even if it meant having to be hospitalized. Even the handwriting was clearly that of his niece, Princess Adeline. It even had an official seal on it.

Could it be that this was written this morning?

“What is this…”

“Did you see it? So, for now, you don’t have to strain yourself to take on the responsibility of protecting the princess on your own. Stay in the hospital with peace of mind. Only then can it be treated properly.”

“How can you treat it properly?”

“It’s because of Helicobacter.”

Rachiel said cuttingly.

“As I said before, tiny parasite-like things are growing in the general’s stomach. They don’t even die easily. So, we need to stop them by harassing them with properly prepared drugs… no, killing them properly.”

“Then shouldn’t I just take the medicine and take it?”

“no. You must also thoroughly manage your diet. You must follow the time of taking herbal medicine and check your lifestyle habits. And above all, rest is most important. So you have to be hospitalized.”

“But…”

“Once treated, it must be managed properly to properly eradicate Helicobacter. Otherwise, it will be more difficult later.”

“Why?”

“If you crush them clumsily and some survive, they become resistant to the drug and it becomes more difficult to get rid of them. In such cases, even if the stomach ulcer is cured immediately, the recurrence rate can approach 70 percent.”

“But then, if you take more medicine again…”

“General? Think about it. “Which would be easier to kill: a soldier with experience surviving a bloody battle or a soldier experiencing it for the first time?”

“Of course, this is my first time experiencing this disease.”

“It’s the same with Helicobacter. Once you step on it clumsily and let it live, it becomes incredibly difficult to kill it from then on. That’s why we need to treat it properly, and for that, we recommend hospitalization.”

“It doesn’t seem like a recommendation, but rather a coercion…”

“Do you really hate being hospitalized that much?”

“yes.”

General Edouard nodded without even breathing.

“Stomach ulcer? It doesn’t matter. I am not weak enough to be hospitalized for something like that. On the contrary, it is extremely strong and sturdy. More than anyone else. But being hospitalized is out of the question.”

“ha. “It’s sturdy.”

“I have protected the northern part of the kingdom for 30 years.”

“But he couldn’t protect his stomach.”

“You can overcome such minor illnesses with a strong body.”

“A strong body. “Can you prove it?”

Rakiel chuckled.

And he pointed at Damian next to him.

“Then why not spar with this guy?”

“You mean sparring?”

“yes. “Let’s admit that you are strong enough to stand up to this guy for five seconds.”

“…yes?”

The general’s eyebrows twitched.

It’s not just a competition, you just have to hold out for 5 seconds? The moment I heard the conditions, I couldn’t believe my ears. This was because it was an insulting condition.

‘What is this…’

General Edouard looked at Damian with dumbfounded eyes. The crown prince’s black-haired escort. I’ve heard rumors. At the canonization ceremony, he showed off his tremendous divine power along with the sword masters.

But…

‘When I actually met him in person, I didn’t feel that kind of force.’

It was like that.

No matter how much I looked at Damian, I couldn’t feel the tingling energy typical of a strong man. Although his appearance and eyes were quite harsh and sharp, there was no particular sense of tension. Rather, the werewolf nurse felt more dangerous.

No, more than that.

“….”

The conditions themselves are humiliating.

No matter how strong the opponent is, even if he is a sword master, he can only last 5 seconds. To be generous and offer conditions that would only be offered to a child holding a sword for the first time.

‘To me, who defended the frigid North against countless monsters and foreigners for 30 years?’

It was absurd.

On the one hand, my teeth were gritted.

“great.”

The general nodded. And I made a promise to myself. 5 seconds? That sounds like a no-brainer. I’ll make you struggle for at least 10 minutes.

‘With all my skills on the line!’

Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!

I followed the crown prince down to the training ground, burning my fighting spirit throughout my body. I confronted Damian at the training ground. A great sword was drawn with the heart of a lone lion.

“I’m going.”

Slurp!

And after 2 seconds.

His mind went on a trip to a theme park where he passed out. It was the moment when hospitalization (physical) was decided.
