“Could you please deliver the sweet potato seeds from Malonggul that you discovered this time and the recipe for making a corona treatment decoction using them to the dimension I live in?”
said. I took it out unconsciously. Immediately after that, Rakiel felt like it was a mistake.
‘I don’t think they will listen to me even if I ask this.’
Judging by Dragon King Berkis’s tendencies, it was quite likely. Extremely lame person. The Dragon King who loves napping and laziness more than anything else in the world. Would such a Dragon King take the trouble of using dimensional magic again? There would be no benefit to you.
‘I guess not.’
I felt late regret. I wonder if I’m being scolded by the Dragon King for no reason. I was also worried.
But on the other hand, I still really hoped. May your request be granted. I hope that the sweet potato leaf seeds and decoction recipe from Maryonggul will be passed down to Korea. Then many people will be able to escape from pain.
‘It is possible to make a decoction using sweet potato leaves. This is not just a simple treatment, but a treatment without aftereffects. Moreover, if this is introduced to Korea, will pharmaceutical companies stay still? no.’
Competitive research will be launched with enormous funding. Numerous improved treatments will be developed. Then, the complete conquest of Corona in the other world will become a reality. Everyone will be able to escape the fear of the pandemic, leaving behind the pain and sadness that we have had to endure.
Just deliver the seeds and recipe.
But…
gulp.
In front of Berkis, who was still silent, Rachiel swallowed dryly and waited for an answer. Nevertheless, the Dragon King still had no reaction. He wasn’t angry or laughing. They just stare at me with eyes whose emotions cannot be read.
Thanks to you, my heart is pounding.
How anxiously did I wait?
“Are you serious?”
It was some time later that a retort came out of the Dragon King’s mouth. I unconsciously shrugged my shoulders at the sudden, unannounced question. The Dragon King’s next question was more brutal than expected.
“If you carelessly ask me for something like that without getting anything in return, you could die. Aren’t you afraid?”
“I am afraid. “I also regret it.”
“regret?”
“yes.”
Rakiel spoke honestly.
“Actually, this is what I was thinking about the whole time while I was making the sleeping pad soup. It was something I was hoping for a lot, but I never thought I would be asking for it out loud like this.”
“Is this a request you made unconsciously without your knowledge? “Is that an excuse?”
“It’s not an excuse. “It just really was that way.”
“That’s an excuse.”
“But…”
“But? what?”
“Even for a short period of time, I thought that if the Dragon King’s personality was what I experienced so far, he would not be angry at such a request.”
“Hmm, is it flattery this time?”
“yes.”
“her. “You don’t even hide it?”
“No matter how you dress it up, the essence is flattery.”
“Would you like to create an image that uses honesty as a weapon?”
“This is a request that has already been boldly made, so I will endure it no matter how you view it.”
I spoke honestly again.
So Berkis didn’t laugh… Instead, he looked at Rakiel with even more serious eyes.
“Hmm.”
He actually liked Rachiel. For a human being, he’s a smart guy, but I liked that he didn’t try to hide it himself.
Usually smart people don’t do this. They often try to disguise their perceived smarts or hide them to avoid checks.
But what about this guy named Rachiel in front of me?
I didn’t.
‘For someone so smart, he’s surprisingly the type that’s not good at hiding his true feelings. ‘Not bad.’
In the end, the Dragon King burst out laughing.
“Okay, whatever. Assuming you are like that, it is like that. In life, you may be asked strange requests. That’s what I’m saying. “I’d like to make a suggestion to you too.”
“You mean an offer?”
“Hmm.”
Berkis nodded.
“Actually. “You have gained a great qualification this time.”
“What are your qualifications?”
“Eligibility to sign up for Dragon King sponsorship membership.”
“….”
“A human who has shown a great favor to a dragon with good intentions is eligible to receive the Dragon King’s support. Of course, I didn’t make this. It’s a system created by my annoying little sister who nags me. Still, it’s a system that exists, so it can’t be corrupted. is not it?”
“Oh yes…”
“Anyway, based on that system, you meet all the requirements. You treated me, who was infected with the virus, with sincerity, right? And if you look at the past, we also solved acute appendicitis in a dorsal dragon, right?”
“To be exact, it’s appendicitis.”
“That’s it.”
“….”
“Anyway, you gave the dragon a great help with good intentions. And twice. “This is more than enough qualifications.”
“Well then…”
“Then?”
“It’s called the Dragon King Sponsorship Membership. “What specific benefits do I receive if I sign up for it?”
Rachiel asked cautiously.
I was genuinely curious. Simple curiosity? It wasn’t. Confirmation was needed. The Dragon King, who wanted to propose something, first started talking about sponsored membership. I’m sure it has a lot to do with the proposal we’ll make in the future. So, I thought it was essential to check the membership details.
‘of course! Even when signing up for a cell phone plan, you have to first consider what coupons or discounts are available!’
It is true.
At the very least, when purchasing a point card at a local supermarket, you need to check what the accumulation rate is. The same goes for transportation card or delivery app membership benefits.
But what about Dragon King sponsorship membership?
Without even checking the contents?
Do you like it?
Hasty consent?
never. Never.
This is something that should not be done and should not be done.
Fortunately(?), the membership benefits announced by the Dragon King were simple.
“Benefits? It’s simple. You can take and use the gold and silver treasures of the Demon Dragon Cave without restrictions, and you are provided with one extra life. “That’s all for the basic benefits.”
“….”
“Why?”
“Oh, I’m a bit surprised.”
Is this a true story?
Even after listening to Rachiel, I felt like poking my ear canal to check. The membership benefits were better than I expected. Unlimited money and extra lives. Isn’t this almost a scam? However, Rachiel held on tightly to her nerves.
“Are there more benefits beyond the basics?”
“That depends on how I feel?”
“This means that additional benefits are determined on a case-by-case basis, like the market price of a raw fish restaurant. All right.”
“I’m glad you understood. “Now then, I would like to make a proposal.”
“Yes, I am listening.”
Rachiel swallowed dry saliva.
First of all, the benefits of sponsorship membership announced by the Dragon King were enormous. No, it wasn’t just a huge gift; it was the ideal gift that all mankind dreams of.
That made me even more nervous. Saying that you will make an offer and informing them of huge benefits in advance means that you will be forcing them to make a choice that will cost you a huge price.
Indeed, the prediction was exactly correct.
“You asked me to pass on the sweet potato leaves and decoction recipe from here to Korea, right? I told you about the benefits of Dragon King sponsorship membership. So choose between the two.”
“Do you mean to tell me that I have to choose between delivering the recipe to Korea or signing up for the Dragon King sponsorship membership?”
“that’s right. “I like it because you’re quick-witted.”
“….”
Rachiel’s uvula moved significantly again.
“Well then…”
“Okay. “Ask.”
“Among the benefits of Dragon King sponsorship membership. Extra lives.”
“huh. It really is two lives. “Have you ever played a shooting game?”
“Do you know… shooting games?”
“huh. “I quite like it.”
“….”
“Anyway, when you’re playing a shooting game, even if the plane you’re piloting gets hit by a bullet and explodes, if you have multiple lives, you’ll come back to life, right? “You can think of it as similar to that.”
“Well then, what happens to the health and lifespan of the new life?”
“aha. “Are you feeling clean as if you were reborn?”
“yes.”
That was what I was most curious about.
Garbage level health. Lifespan still less than a few years. It was a life of trying to make ends meet with the bonuses I received from patients at the Byeongung Oriental Medical Clinic. But what if you could become healthy when you die and are resurrected? Is there anything better than that?
However, the Dragon King’s answer was different from expectations.
“Your health and physical condition will improve slightly compared to just before you died. Your chronic illness may disappear. But it won’t be long before it happens again. That’s what illness is. “Innate genes, the composition of the intestinal flora, the resulting neural network structure, and the resulting lifestyle habits have a huge impact.”
“It means that you will feel slightly healthier for a while, but it will only be for a short period of time.”
“maybe? “Do you have any other questions?”
“yes.”
I nodded without even breathing.
“It’s the property of Demon Dragon Cave.”
“huh. “You can take it indefinitely at any time.”
“Without any conditions required?”
“How much can you do? “You can take it on your own.”
“And what if the Demon Dragon Cave becomes penniless?”
“That won’t happen.”
“Why?”
“The dragons of the world pay their taxes regularly.”
“Tax…?”
“Hmm.”
Berkis shrugged his shoulders. And he said it as if he couldn’t believe it himself.
“Honestly, I have no intention of receiving taxes and I never did in the first place, right? But was it a thousand years ago? After crushing the annoying demon dragon or the Kaiser, from then on, they began to sacrifice themselves. I brought peace to the world. “Protecting the balance of power or something.”
“….”
“Thanks to this, the wealth of Demon Dragon Cave will never dry up. No, please take it. “It’s so much trouble to organize gold bars and jewelry.”
“Oh yeah.”
…It doesn’t seem like he’s really organizing it himself.
But anyway, I heard everything. I understand what the Dragon King sponsorship membership is like. Thanks to you, I can judge.
Rakiel was lost in thought for a moment.
A request he made. Will we be able to deliver the Maryonggul sweet potato leaves and decoction recipe to Korea to save people from the pain of Corona? Or will you accept the Dragon King sponsorship membership and enjoy extra lives and unlimited wealth?
I was worried.
My eyebrows furrowed.
My head was pounding.
Damian, who was watching this, clenched and unclenched his fist without realizing it. he thought. He said that the crown prince whom he had served until now would make choices for the people. I will walk a path that will widely benefit others.
On the other hand, Dragon King Berkis looked at Rachiel with narrowed eyes. He was curious. What choice will the person in front of you make? Will you give up your own enormous benefits to follow an altruistic path?
How long was it like that?
Rakiel raised his head.
“I…”
His clear eyes looked straight at Berkis.
“I will choose the Dragon King sponsorship membership.”
It was a voice that did not show any hesitation or even the slightest regret. Berkis sighed involuntarily. This person ended up like this too. It seemed like he was asking for something grandiose for people, but in the end, it was no different when it came to his own enormous benefit.
‘Tsk, actually, this is probably a realistic choice.’
… It was the moment when the Dragon King was about to quench his bitter taste.
At that time, Rachiel’s mouth opened again.
“But the Dragon King from earlier. Didn’t you say, ‘If you carelessly ask me for something like that without getting anything in return, you could die. Aren’t you afraid?’”
“uh? Um, you did, right?”
“Do you still feel the same way?”
“maybe?”
“Good.”
A happy smile appeared on Rakiel’s lips.
“Then, what if you give me all the membership benefits, then kill me for asking for nothing in return, and instead ship the herbal medicine recipe to Korea?”
